Pasture renovation with herbicide suppression of weeds and no-till seeding of orchardgrass

Creator:: Fitzsimmons, James P.
Abstract:: No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...

Structural stability effects on adsorption of bacteriophage T4 lysozyme to colloidal silica

Creator:: Tian, Minghua
Abstract:: Circular dichroism (CD) spectra were obtained for bacteriophage T4 lysozyme and three of its mutants in the presence and absence of colloidal silica nanoparticles. Mutant lysozymes were produced by substitution of the isoleucine at position 3 with tryptophan, cysteine and leucine. Each substitution resulted in an altered structural stability, quantified...

Evaluation of alternative information signs in Oregon

Creator:: Neill, Justin Michael
Abstract:: The number of international inbound tourists to the United States has risen steadily. To serve these and other tourists best, traffic signs need to communicate information correctly across a potential language barrier. Of particular interest is the traffic sign intended to communicate directions to Tourist Information centers. While the general...

Theoretical physics takes root in America : John Archibald Wheeler as student and mentor

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: John Archibald Wheeler (09 July 1911- ) is a familiar name to physicists and historians of physics alike. Among his many contributions to the corpus of knowledge, in 1939 John Wheeler and Niels Bohr co-authored the first paper on the generalized mechanism of nuclear fission. Beyond that seminal work, Wheeler...

Identical confusion : the history of twin studies on sexual orientation, 1952-1973

Creator:: Boltseridge, Nathan H.
Abstract:: In 1952, at the height of the McCarthy era, Franz Kallmann, a Jewish psychiatrist and eugenicist who fled the National Socialist regime in Germany, published a study, in which he claimed to have found a one hundred percent concordance rate for homosexuality among forty pairs of identical twins. From this...

Archival Anthropometry: An Analysis of the Anthropometric Data of Native American Children Gathered by Franz Boas, 1888-1902

Creator:: Kirkpatrick, Kristin A.
Abstract:: Franz Boas collected anthropometric data on approximately 15,000 people from over 200 Native American tribal groups between 1888 and 1902. Twelve basic measurements were taken: standing height, shoulder height, height to digit III, arm span, sitting height, shoulder width, head length and width, face height and breadth, and nose height...

Geographic information systems : some considerations for use in geographic research and analysis

Creator:: Herstrom, Andrew A.
Abstract:: The major considerations for acquiring and using a geographic information system (G..I.S.) for regional or national geographical research and analysis are examined in this paper. After defining what a G.I.S. is, some of the more practical and useful functions of a G.I.S. in day-to--day geographical work are outlined. Finally, the...

Differences Between Public Attention and Understanding of School Budget Formats Published in Newspapers

Creator:: Mason, Sue Cockeram
Abstract:: This thesis study attempts to differentiate between attention and understanding as separate phases of communication theory. To do this, additional analysis was made of data already gathered from a random sample of Oregonians by the Survey Research Center at Oregon State University. An additional objective was to determine the role...

Evaluation of remediation techniques for circular holes in the webs of wood I-joists

Creator:: Polocoser, Tiberiu
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to evaluate methods to remediate a wood I-joist with a single, circular hole in the web while leaving utilities in place. The methods were experimentally evaluated with a full-scale bending test using four equally spaced point loads. There were three depths of joists with...
