Lamb growth and pasture production in agrivoltaic production system

Creator:: Andrew, Alyssa C.
Abstract:: Grasslands and croplands located in temperate agro-ecologies are ranked to be the best places to install solar panels for maximum energy production. Therefore, agrivoltaic systems (agricultural production under solar panels) are designed to mutually benefit solar energy and agricultural production in the same location for dual-use of land. However, both...

Spatial and temporal variations in respiration rates and hypoxia on the Oregon shelf

Creator:: Wolf, Megan J.
Abstract:: Inner shelf hypoxia has occurred along the Oregon coast between the latitudes 44ºN and 45ºN since 2002 with increasing duration and intensity, posing a threat to marine life. The objective of this research was to determine whether variation in respiration rate explains spatial and temporal variation in hypoxia. Dissolved oxygen...

Test for Transgenerational Immune Priming in the Snail, Biomphalaria glabrata

Creator:: Anand, Sonal
Abstract:: Transgenerational immune priming occurs when an adult is exposed to a parasite or other pathogen and then transmits information to its offspring through protective phenotypes to cope with the same pathogen (Moret, 2006). There has been evidence for transgenerational immune priming in various invertebrates (Tidbury et al. 2011). Here we...

Sources of variability in duration of anesthesia with brevital sodium in snakes

Creator:: Preston, Daniel L.
Abstract:: Variability in the depth and duration of anesthesia in individuals within a species is frequently observed, yet few studies have investigated its causes in reptiles. To evaluate the potential causes of variability in reptile anesthesia, I conducted experiments to test for effects of body temperature, body composition and time post-feeding...

The Impact of Language Preferences on Birth Outcomes in Oregon

Creator:: Schroeder, Tory
Abstract:: Differential access to healthcare contributes to health disparities, and discrimination by language preferences may limit healthcare access to individuals for whom English is not their preferred language. This study looks at whether those who have different language preferences within the Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS ) survey reported different...

Tracking the Range Expansion of a Native Bee, the Squash Bee, Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa; (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Oregon using Community Science

Creator:: Jones, Miranda L.
Abstract:: The foraging distance of bees has been intensely studied. In contrast, little is known about the factors that determine bee dispersal distance, especially on large spatial scales. Eucera (Peponapis) pruinosa is a wild ground nesting bee that exclusively collects pollen from squash in the genus Cucurbita. Although the bee occurs...

A Review of Factors that Influence Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Rates

Creator:: Aguiñaga, Marina T.
Abstract:: This review aimed to identify the factors that influence human papillomavirus (HPV) immunization initiation and completion among adolescents and young adults. A review of literature pertaining to HPV vaccination was performed that used data published after 2012. It was found that the average HPV vaccination rate in the United States...

Sperm depletion and sperm competition in the red-sided garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: Kerns, Amelia R.
Abstract:: Sperm competition is the post-copulatory analog of male-male combat, wherein sperm from more than one male coincide in a female’s reproductive tract and compete with one another for fertilization of a limited number of ova. Post-copulatory sexual selection, such as sperm competition, can be a powerful driving force for the...

Studying the most effective modes of marine science communication on plastic pollution in the oceans

Creator:: Burton, Simone A.
Abstract:: The ocean provides many ecosystems services and yet humans have viewed the ocean as a black hole for trash since the 1950s. With recycling not getting to the source of the problem, smarter consumer choices are being targeted, specifically choices centered around the use of plastic. Thus efficient, useful communication...

Improving Bioanalytical Methods of miRNA Analysis and its Applications to Breast Cancer

Creator:: Tran, Victoria
Abstract:: Micro-ribonucleic acids (miRNA) are becoming an increasingly popular topic of research in hopes of discovering newfound biomarkers and/or therapies for numerous types of cancers and diseases. MiRNA are a type of biomolecule contributing to the progression of multiple cancers and diseases, and such biomolecules are called biomarkers. Current RNA-based biosensors...
