Fault behavior over geomorphic time scales in the Pakistan Himalaya, Kashmir Himalaya, and California

Creator:: Madugo, Christopher Lee Madden
Abstract:: The state of the knowledge for fault behavior in the northwest Himalaya and California varies dramatically. In the Pakistan and Kashmir Himalaya, few data constrain the role that individual active faults play in accommodating Indo-Eurasian convergence and the relative earthquake hazard across the region. By contrast, the San Andreas fault...

The Primary Disease Gradient of Wheat Stripe Rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) Across Spatial Scales

Creator:: Farber, Daniel
Abstract:: Wheat stripe rust (WSR), also called yellow rust of wheat (Tricitum spp.), causal agent Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (Pst), is a foliar disease of major economic importance on wheat, especially grown in temperate locations. WSR causes major losses of wheat yield, estimated at nearly $ 1 billion per year, and...

Neural regulation of immunity in teleosts

Creator:: Flory, Craig M.
Abstract:: It has long been observed that stress can increase our susceptibility to infectious diseases and cancers. Recent experimental evidence suggests that this increased susceptibility is due to suppression of immunity. A variety of neuroendocrine products are released during periods of stress, and a large number of these are now known...

Factors influencing the effects of host diversity on plant disease epidemics for wheat stripe rust and potato late blight

Creator:: Garrett, Karen A.
Abstract:: Most studies of plant disease epidemiology have focused on epidemics in host populations composed of a single genotype. But crop plant diversity can be a useful means of improving the deployment of resistance genes. In a series of experiments with wheat stripe rust and potato late blight, we studied factors...

Morphodynamics of 3D Migrating Cancer Cells

Creator:: Eddy, Christopher Z.
Abstract:: At the intersection of basic science research and clinical relevance, cancer metastasis and cell invasion is a multifaceted problem that has been investigated for the past several decades. Importantly, cancer cell plasticity, the ability of a single cell to change its phenotype without genetic mutations in response to environmental cues,...

Thresholds of uncertainty : radiation and responsibility in the fallout controversy

Creator:: Jolly, J. Christopher
Abstract:: The public controversy over possible health hazards from radioactive fallout from atomic bomb testing began in 1954, shortly after a thermonuclear test by the United States spread fallout world wide. In the dissertation, I address two of the fundamental questions of the fallout controversy: Was there a threshold of radiation...

Ecology and biological control of an apomictic invasive plant, Chondrilla juncea (Asteraceae)

Creator:: Campanella, Donald M.
Abstract:: A study consisting of three parts was undertaken to investigate how variation in species interactions, population genetic structure, epidemiological parameters, and plant breeding system may influence the ecology and biological control of an apomictic invasive plant, Chondrilla juncea (Asteraceae). Interactions between natural enemy species may modify their net effect on...

Predicting and Improving Throughput, Responsiveness and Battery Life of Computer Systems by Machine Learning

Creator:: Li, Yunfan
Abstract:: The Machine Learning (ML) algorithms are increasingly explored in varies of fields including designing and optimizing computer systems. Recent research, such as optimizing memory/cache prefetching by ML training or predicting traffic pattern in throughput processors, also exhibits a promising future of introducing ML into computer system design and optimization. Throughput...

Evaluation of grapevine red blotch virus epidemiology with reference to potential insect vectors

Creator:: Dalton, Daniel T.
Abstract:: Grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV), the causal agent of red blotch disease (RBD) in grapevine, Vitis vinifera L., is an emerging pathogen of significance to the wine grape industry of Oregon, USA. To address knowledge gaps of GRBV epidemiology, spread of GRBV was evaluated in Oregon vineyards over four years....

Evolutionary Approach to Efficient Provisioning and Self-organization in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)

Creator:: Khanna, Rahul, 1966-
Abstract:: Advances in low-power digital integration and microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have paved the way for micro-sensors. These sensors are equipped with data processing capabilities along with sensory circuits. Sensor data are processed on these individual sensors and transmitted to the target (sink). Lowcost integration and small sizes of these sensors have...
