On the Structure of the Orbit Spaces of Almost Torus Manifolds with Non-negative Curvature

Creator:: Dong, Zheting
Abstract:: An almost torus manifold $M$ is a closed $(2n+1)$-dimensional orientable Riemannian manifold with an effective, isometric $n$-torus action such that the fixed point set $M^T$ is non-empty. Almost torus manifolds are analogues of torus manifolds in odd dimension and share many of the characteristics of torus manifolds. For example, both...

Latinx Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker Students & the College Assistance Migrant Program: Stories of Strength, Persistence, and Success

Creator:: Hernandez Silva, Lesley
Abstract:: According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2017), Latinx people are the fastest growing ethnic group in the nation but are least likely to enroll in institutions of higher education and fewer eventually earn a degree even if enrolled. Enrollment rates for Latinx students with migrant and seasonal farmworker (MSFW) background...

Overstory Growth, Structural Development, and Regeneration Success Following Uneven-Aged Conversion Treatments in Douglas-fir Plantation of the Cascade Range in Oregon

Creator:: Marcum, Sean R.
Abstract:: Uneven-aged management has been suggested as a method for balancing biodiversity conservation and wood production goals from managed forests in a variety of regions. In coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of the Pacific Northwest, implementation of uneven-aged management is hindered by a lack of experience with uneven-aged silvicultural systems, including...

Sound Perspectives: Sentiment Analysis of Residents of the Puget Sound On Indigenous Fisheries

Creator:: Thommen, Hailey Kehoe
Abstract:: Indigenous management and coordinated co-management of natural resources is an emotionally filled topic, especially for those within the Puget Sound region of Washington, but has yet to be studied in depth from the emotional perspective of residents. This research used sentiment analysis to find the overarching sentiment of indigenous fisheries,...

0An assessment of the oviposition behavior of spotted-wing drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) in the presence of a novel management tool in Pinot noir grapes

Creator:: Blood, Rachel A.
Abstract:: Spotted-wing drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii) is an invasive fruit fly species native of Southeast Asia. In vineyards, SWD lays eggs in damaged and intact fruit of the most soft-skinned varieties, and feeds on damaged fruits during the harvest period. Feeding and oviposition activities increase the likelihood of vectoring spoilage bacteria,...

Analysis of SNPs in Mycoplasma cynos strains from canine hosts within the Pacific Coast animal shelter network

Creator:: Prymolenna, Anastasiya V.
Abstract:: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) can be used as markers to infer population genetic structure. For Mycoplasma cynos, a pathogen associated with infectious respiratory disease among canines and other animals, SNPs may help to elucidate ecological and evolutionary relationships among the strains that reside in the upper respiratory tract of canines...

Exploring the Consumer Green Gap: Consumer Attitudes and Intentions Related to Sustainable Product Consumption

Creator:: Geldert, Brionna R.
Abstract:: Green consumerism is an important issue among marketers due to the prevailing green gap (Tseng, 2016). A consumer’s green gap is the distance between the stated importance of protecting the environment and actual behavior (Tseng, 2016). This study strives to understand factors affecting consumer motivations and decisions related to sustainable...

The Effect of Zumbini® on Physical Activity of Young Children with and without Disabilities

Creator:: Chang, Chun-Wei
Abstract:: Physical activity is important for young children with and without disabilities. However, recent investigations have found that young children with and without disabilities spend less time in physical activity than is recommended. Family and music factors have been shown to positively affect physical activity of this population in previous studies....

Geographic variation in the seed mycobiome of Coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii)

Creator:: Bergmann, Gillian E.
Abstract:: Seeds are an essential component of plant life histories, and seed endophytes have the potential to influence germination, seedling establishment and development. That said, seed endophytes are a relatively new area of study, both in the factors that influence which taxa are present and how these microbes alter plant function....

Assessing Changes in Biological Interactions of Lipid-Coated Gold and Silver Nanoparticles Based on Physicochemical Properties

Creator:: Engstrom, Arek Mackenzie
Abstract:: Nanoparticles (NPs), particles defined by their size in a single dimension (1-100 nm), are being increasingly incorporated into commercial and industrial products due to their high surface area to volume ratio that gives them unique properties, such as optical tunability and higher reactivity than their bulk counterparts. NPs can be...
