By identifying the relationships between abundance and metabolic activity in a bacterial community, we advance our knowledge of the marine carbon cycle. In the present study, our goal was to examine the role of protist grazing on the metabolic activity of γ- Proteobacteria in the upwelling system off the Oregon...

The Oregon Department of Education requires children to receive vision screening before entering elementary school, but does not require follow-up with an eye care professional after a failed screening. Whether such preventative vision care is effective at detecting children with vision problems was investigated through research from the American Optometric...
Much has been accomplished in the last few years
toward the conservation of natural resources, and in
this work the engineer has taken a leading part. The
prevention of unnecessary waste, the utilization of
hitherto useless by-products, and the economic production of the world's necessities are important features of this...
Ocean acidification has led to many issues regarding the decline of calcifying organisms, such as
coralline algae. Acidified sea water inhibits precipitation of CaCO3 that affects the structure and
growth of coralline algae. Therefore, non-calcifying algae may outcompete calcifying algae in the
intertidal systems with future acidic ocean condition. Variety...
The data used in the design of this hydro-electric
generating station was furnished by Hon. Walter M. Pierce
from a survey conducted by T. R. Barry C. E. in the service
of the Grande Ronde Water Co. during the summer of
1906.
In the preparation of this thesis there were...
Sports, being one of the most popular forms of social play for children (Felfe et al., 2016), can contribute to a child’s development, as they are associated with “physical growth, biological maturation, behavioral development, psychological, and social well-being” (Bailey et al., 2015). The purpose of this study was to attempt...
Currently, there is no accurate, low-cost method to track divers. Watching bubbles can
give you an approximate xy-location, and expensive underwater radios utilizing ultrasonic waves can work if the diver knows where they are. Traditional radio waves do not work well in water due to the conductive nature of water....
