Cool hideaways: use of temperature refuges by juvenile coho salmon in the West Fork Smith River

Creator:: Raskauskas, Nancy
Abstract:: The West Fork Smith River, a 69 km2 watershed in the Coast Range of Oregon, is prone to short periods of very high water temperature in mid-summer due to a combination of human and natural influences. In the summers of 2003 and 2004 more than 400 juvenile coho salmon regularly...

A Java implementation of the elliptic curve digital signature algorithm using NIST curves over GF(p)

Creator:: Stadick, Rhea
Abstract:: The Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) is a public key cryptosystem used for creation and verification of digital signatures in electronic documents. In this thesis, we created a Java applet that provides the functionality of the ECDSA using all of the NIST elliptic curves over GF(p). This applet was...

Beyond free will: an empirical case for a capacity model of human agency

Creator:: Helzer, Erik G.
Abstract:: Although the question of free will has persisted throughout the history of philosophy as an important metaphysical consideration, rarely does the inquiry include empirical evidence from other disciplines concerned with human behavior. In this interdisciplinary paper, I combine the wisdom of psychologists, metaphysicians, and philosophers of science to comment on...

Effects of caustic addition on black liquor rheology and thermal characteristics

Creator:: Euhus, Daniel D.
Abstract:: An important by-product of the kraft pulping process, black liquor is currently used in most pulp mills to produce steam in a recovery boiler. Two important black liquor characteristics are viscosity and burning (firing) characteristics, which determine the operating efficiency of the recovery boiler. Kraft black liquor is a complicated...

Patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish, sebastes spp., along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Young, Thomas
Abstract:: Rockfish of the genus Sebastes are important components of Oregon reef communities. I examined patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish across two nested spatial scales – local and regional – along the Oregon coast. Using otolith microstructural examination, I examined the relative importance of local versus regional factors...

Biodiesel in Oregon : an agricultural perspective

Creator:: Lahmann, Emily Loren
Abstract:: Biodiesel is a renewable, non-toxic, and biodegradable diesel fuel made from agricultural feedstocks. With a vibrant agricultural industry, Oregon is positioned to play an important role in the future of this energy source. Limiting factors to widespread biodiesel production include low value of biodiesel feedstock crops, lack of infrastructure, lagging...

The role of CYP2E1 and CYP4A in the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis

Creator:: Hawkins, Jenna M.
Abstract:: Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis (NASH) is an emerging form of liver disease associated with obesity, type II diabetes and dyslipidemia. As the prevalence of these metabolic conditions increases, so too has the occurrence of NASH in all sectors of the population. The pathology of this disease is similar to its alcoholic form,...

Teaching business to the poor : the effectiveness of business development services within microenterprise development

Creator:: Wilson, Taylor Anne
Abstract:: Many economic development methods over the years have tried to solve the problem of poverty with varied success. Microenterprise development is a method that works with the poor to create small self-run businesses to increase their income, and therefore bring more freedom from disease illiteracy and discrimination. Within microenterprise development...

Near earth object collisional mitigation via intense neutron and photon sources : a study in asteroid interdiction and energy coupling

Creator:: Sanders, JC
Abstract:: The large population of 2r>100m near earth objects (NEOs) presents a certain hazard to life on earth. It has been proposed that a nuclear device may be used to alter the course of such objects, thereby averting a catastrophic collision with the earth. The asteroid interdiction problem includes a number...

Effects of phenytoin and carbamazepine on calcium transport in Caco-2 cells and pilot study to compare the role of the Chilean and United States pharmacist from the patient perspective

Creator:: von Borstel, Melinda
Abstract:: Adverse effects of anti-epileptic (AED) medications on bone density have been reported since the 1960s. Phenytoin and carbamazepine, two commonly prescribed AED, are frequently associated with osteomalacia including fractures and reduced bone formation. The mechanism by which AED induces bone loss is not fully explained. We sought to determine the...
