  • Estimating basal glacier conditions using internal layer slopes

    Creator:
    Carroll, Georgia
    Abstract:
    Ice-penetrating radar produces detailed images of the internal ice layers in a glacier. Because the layers form from each year's snowfall, the curving of the internal layers is a record of the climate conditions that the glacier experienced as it flowed throughout the millennia. The Hiawatha Glacier lies on top...

  • Measuring Bubble Pressure in Glacier Ice

    Creator:
    Clonch, Cameron E.
    Abstract:
    Recent observations of tidewater glaciers find that the currently accepted model for predicting ice melt vastly underestimates observed melt rates. The release of pressurized air bubbles into the ocean from pores in the ice is one process that can amplify glacier melt. To incorporate this process into models, we need...

  • Determination of Stable Isotope Analysis as a Valid Method for Identifying Tick Blood Meals

    Creator:
    Morrison, Erin
    Abstract:
    In order to decrease Lyme disease prevalence it is crucial to understand the role of the black-legged tick, Ixodes scapularis, and its hosts within the ecosystem. This study sought to validate stable isotope analysis as a method of determining tick blood meals by comparing the δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N of the...

  • Mother Nature Branches Out: A Children’s Story Exploring Literacy Development and Social Change

    Creator:
    Ford, Erin E.
    Abstract:
    “Mother Nature Branches Out” is a children’s story that incorporates developmental concepts important for early literacy development as well as developing skills related to social change and environmental activism. Incorporating and teaching about climate change within the context of a children’s story helps to expand the lens through which children’s...

  • Survey of Cyanophages: A Study of the Bacteriophages associated with Pacific Northwest Cyanobacterial blooms

    Creator:
    Riscoe, Erin W.
    Abstract:
    Cyanobacterial blooms are a growing concern in the Pacific Northwest because of their threat to watershed health and drinking water supplies. Bacteriophages are pathogens of bacteria and may contribute to the growth and decline of seasonal blooms. Bacteriophage S-CRM01, a lytic T4-type myophage, has been isolated from a freshwater strain...

  • Effect of Zero-and-Low Calorie Sweeteners on Retronasal Odor Enhancement

    Creator:
    Schenk, Erin E.
    Abstract:
    This study aimed to investigate the relationship between taste and odor through the phenomenon called retronasal odor enhancement by sweet taste. The specific sweet tastants used were zero or low calorie sweeteners. Experiment 1 used an aqueous model system where subjects sampled of vanilla solutions with and without five different...

  • A population viability analysis of the Oregon chub (Oregonichthys crameri) in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

    Creator:
    Peterson, Erin
    Abstract:
    The Oregon chub (Oregonichthys crameri) is a small minnow (Family: Cyprinidae) endemic to Oregon’s Willamette Valley. In 1993, the Oregon chub was listed as endangered because of habitat loss and predation and competition by nonnative fishes. Conservation efforts by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) and other agencies...
