The effects of multiple pathogens on amphibians in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Romansic, John M.
Abstract:: The earth is undergoing a “biodiversity crisis” characterized by loss of populations, species, genetic diversity, and ecosystem services. Part of this crisis consists of population declines, extinctions, and increased incidence of deformities in amphibians. It is unknown whether deformities contribute to these declines. Many cases of population declines in amphibians...

Oceanographic effects on the dynamics of food habits and growth condition of some groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Lee, Yong Woo
Abstract:: Marine fish are subject to direct and indirect oceanographic variations operating at short and long time scales. In this study feeding habits and long-term growth condition of several groundfish species of the Pacific Northwest are examined to understand the relationship between variations in the fish's biological and life history components...

The street tree problem for the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Neill, John Wesley
Abstract:: A regional analysis of the street tree problem has been undertaken in order to evolve a system of tree classification which would be useful to city planners, arborists, and landscape architects who have the responsibility of selecting trees to fulfill their design requirements for the city street. Three lines of...

The fluvial response to glacial-interglacial climate change in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: VanLaningham, Sam J.
Abstract:: This research focuses on the development of new techniques to explore terrestrial-ocean climate linkages along the Pacific Northwest-northeast Pacific Ocean margin. This is done by investigating river response to climate change and by unraveling this history preserved in continental margin sediments. A significant component of this work centers on developing...

An analysis of technical efficiency and productivity growth in the Pacific Northwest sawmill industry

Creator:: Helvoigt, Ted L.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to investigate technical efficiency and productivity growth in the Pacific Northwest sawmilling industry over the period 1968-2002. Productivity growth was decomposed into three components: technical change, efficiency change, and scale efficiency change. In addition, using econometric methods, changes in output elasticities and input substitution...

The role of marginalized discourses in constructing the white identity of preservice teachers

Creator:: Nava, Roberto Chavira, Jr.
Abstract:: This research addresses the complexities of White racial identity development in the lives of five elementary and middle school preservice teachers during their graduate teacher education program at a private Christian Pacific Northwestern university. Using a poststructural framework, this research investigated three questions: 1) How do the aspects of subjectivation...

Training needs of school counseling site supervisors in the Pacific Northwest : An exploration via the construct of self-efficacy

Creator:: DeKruyf, Lorraine
Abstract:: School counseling site supervisors provide a critical contribution to the professional development of master's program school counseling interns; however, their training needs remain unidentified in the literature. To that end, the purpose of this quantitative study was to explore the training needs of site supervisors of master's program school counseling...

The experience of alienation for males ages 16 - 19 from high school in the Pacific Northwest : A phenomenological inquiry

Creator:: Schulz, Lisa L.
Abstract:: This qualitative study examined the experiences and perceptions of males aged 16 – 19 who did not complete a traditional high school diploma program because of feeling alienated from the school system. Five participants described their school experiences from elementary school through the point in high school when they decided...

Development of a hybrid modeling framework for intensively managed Douglas-fir plantations in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Weiskittel, Aaron R.
Abstract:: Forest growth models in the Pacific Northwest are predominantly empirical. Predictions of yield under alternative silvicultural regimes cannot rely completely on field trials; yet empirical growth models are often inadequate for extrapolating untested regimes and genotypes. The limitations of current models include (1) long time-steps (e.g. 5-10 years); (2) insufficient...
