Larval settlement and juvenile group dynamics in the domino damselfish (Dascyllus albisella)

Creator:: Booth, David J. (David John), 1958-
Abstract:: Patterns of settlement of larvae and population dynamics of juveniles are poorly known for coral reef fishes. During 1987 to 1989, I studied these phenomena in the domino damselfish (Dascyllus albisella), a species endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. Larvae settle onto branching coral heads as new recruits (10-15 mm in...

Life history of the caligid copepod Lepeophtheirus hospitalis Fraser, 1920 (Crustacea:Caligoida)

Creator:: Voth, David Richard
Abstract:: Specimens of the starry flounder, Platichthys stellatus (Pallas, 1811) Girard, 1854, were collected in Yaquina Bay near Newport, Oregon, from July, 1970, to August, 1971. Fish infected with Lepeophtheirus hospitalis Fraser, 1920, were transported to Corvallis, Oregon, and maintained in a sea water system at 15°C. Isolated copepods were studied...

Osmotic and ionic regulation in the North American crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (dana)

Creator:: Kerley, David Emmet
Abstract:: Osmotic and ionic regulation was studied in the North American crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana), stepwise acclimated to increasing salinities. Stepwise acclimation involved transferring crayfish at 48 hour intervals from freshwater to 100% seawater in 20% increments. In experiments where 70% seawater was used, animals were moved directly from 40 to...

Descriptive Analysis of Human Remains from the Fuller and Fanning Mounds, Yamhill River, Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Stepp, David
Abstract:: The study presents the results of a descriptive analysis of the skeletal remains of 66 individuals recovered from the Fuller and Fanning Mound sites, located on the Yamhill River, Willamette Valley, Oregon, excavated in 1941-42 by W. T. Edmundson and William S. Laughlin. The literature and original field notes have...

Oceanographic influences on rocky intertidal communities : coastal upwelling, invertebrate growth rates, and keystone predation

Creator:: Sanford, Eric (Eric David)
Abstract:: The influence of large-scale processes on natural communities has become one of the central issues of modern ecology. I combined field and laboratory studies to investigate the effects of variation in coastal upwelling on rocky intertidal communities along the central Oregon coast. I examined whether the growth of intertidal barnacles...

An ecological study of Diatomovora amoena, an interstitial acoel flatworm, in an estuarine mudflat on the central coast of Oregon

Creator:: Thum, Alan Bradley
Abstract:: The distribution and abundance of the interstitial acoel turbellarian, Diatomovora amoena Kozloff, 1965 was studied in an estuarine intertidal sand flat in Yaquina Bay, Oregon, from May 1970 through May 1971. Monthly measurements of biological (organics, sulfides, chlorophyll, and carotenoids), pore water (salinity, pH,oxygen, and temperature), and sediment (fine sediment...

The ecological and behavioral dynamics of breeding in three sympatric anuran amphibians

Creator:: Olson, Deanna H.
Abstract:: Breeding ecology and behavior were investigated in a field study of three sympatric anuran amphibians in the Oregon Cascade Mountains: the western toad (Bufo boreas), the Cascades frog (Rana cascadae) and the Pacific treefrog (Hyla regilla). A comprehensive study of the western toad mating system was conducted at three populations...

Patterns and mechanisms : postcopulatory sexual selection and sexual conflict in a novel mating system

Creator:: Friesen, Christopher R.
Abstract:: Postcopulatory sexual selection—sperm competition and cryptic female choice—has become a major area of research over the past 40 years. Within this field there are many outstanding questions at every level of analysis, from proximate to ultimate. The fitness consequences for both sexes in the period after copulation and before fertilization...

Connecting microevolutionary processes with macroevolutionary patterns across space and time

Creator:: Uyeda, Josef C.
Abstract:: Whether microevolutionary processes can explain macroevolutionary patterns has long been a matter of contentious debate. The debate has persisted largely because of the challenging task of connecting microevolutionary theory, which examines population-level phenomena on the generation scale, to data collected across larger spatial and temporal scales. My dissertation research broadly...
