Investigating synergistic effects of climate and land-use change on the pollination of a tropical plant, Heliconia tortuosa

Creator:: Dowd, Claire E.
Abstract:: Loss of biodiversity due to the effects of climate and land-use change may have implications for pollination services. Disruption to phenological synchronicity or a reduction in the overlap in species distributions of plants and their pollinators may reduce floral resources to pollinators, forcing them to move farther distances. If pollinators...

Analysis of Organochlorine Pesticides (OCPs) in Gray Whale Scat as an Alternative Method of Toxicant Quantification in Cetaceans

Creator:: Kutnerian, Amy M.
Abstract:: A method was developed to quantify organochlorine pesticides in whale scat. This method would ideally replace analysis of pesticides in blood and tissue samples, which are difficult to acquire. Scat samples were collected from one stranded gray whale and three live whales. The samples were extracted with pressurized liquid extraction,...

VOC Emisions and Categorization in Axenic Growth Conditions by Phaeodactylum tricornutum

Creator:: Thompson, Douglas A.
Abstract:: Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) play an integral role in climate change and as a carbon source for organisms living in a marine environment. These compounds have many sources, but the impacts of biogenically produced VOCs is not fully known. Phaeodactylum tricornutum was studied under axenic ideal growth conditions to determine...

Variability in the condition of juvenile Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, at the Western Antarctic Peninsula

Creator:: Shah, Radhika S.
Abstract:: Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are a highly abundant zooplankton species found in the Southern Ocean. They are a key food choice for higher trophic levels and are important consumers near the base of the food web. Changes to the environment of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), as a result of...

A survey of power systems vulnerability and failures on the Pacific Northwest due to natural disasters with a focus on volcanic activity.

Creator:: Tafempa Messa, Winnie
Abstract:: Electricity is at the center of attention as today many essential systems (water, gas, communications, and the internet for example) and infrastructures depend on its continuity for their smooth functioning. On the other hand, electricity power networks have developed and became large, and highly complex technical systems, geographically extended, requiring...

Distribution of Chlorociboria species in riparian forests of Western Oregon

Creator:: Kramer, Olivia E.
Abstract:: Transects were run at five locations in the Benton County area searching for samples of Chlorociboria spp. on dead wood, with fifteen total samples found. Of these samples, eight samples had the wood species identified, with the majority found on Acer macrophyllum and one on Salix spp. The density of...

Associations between state alcohol tax policies and college sexual assault offenses

Creator:: Killion, Rebecca
Abstract:: Previous literature consistently demonstrates a link between binge drinking and sexual assault among college students. State alcohol control policies, particularly tax policies, are established as important predictors of college binge drinking but have not been examined in relation to sexual assault. This study used merged data on student demographics and...

A Chemical Study of Western Oregon Nutgalls

Creator:: Johnson, Clarence William and De Haven, Glen
Abstract:: Few discoveries of any importance have been the result of a moment's happy coincidence; rather have they been the fruit of many hours of tedious thought and experiment. This is especially true in the realm of organic chemistry. Here, where progress is made only by the most painstaking experimentation, extensive...
