Remote detection and predicted locations of NIPF fuel treatments in central Oregon

Creator:: Hall, Michael P.
Abstract:: Fire regimes across the western United States have been altered due to past land management and changing land use. Mitigating increased risks of wildfire occurrence in landscapes such as central Oregon requires landscape level management from both governmental and private organizations. Non-industrial private forest (NIPF) owners manage a relatively small...

Exopolysaccharide biosynthesis by a natural lactococcal ropy isolate

Creator:: Knoshaug, Eric P.
Abstract:: The genes coding for the expression of a ropy exopolysaccharide responsible for commercially desirable textural and rhealogical traits in fermented milk products by a natural lactococcal ropy isolate were sought. Using a transposon mutagenesis vector, pGh9:ISS1, three mutants lacking expression of the ropy exopolysaccharide were isolated. One of the mutants...

The inheritance of appetite in ruminants

Creator:: Ngam, Joe Eric Tosah
Abstract:: The study involved three separate research efforts in which 10 Holstein calves and 85 purebred Hampshire and Suffolk ewe and ram lambs were employed. The objectives of the experiments were to characterize appetite, describe its inheritance and evaluate its associations with animal performance. In the calf experiment, appetite was determined...

Evaluation of a potential Chylamydia psittaci vaccine candidate using recombinant vaccinia virus encoding the infection-specific C. psittaci GPIC proteins IncA and TroA

Creator:: Werth, Eric P.
Abstract:: Members of the family Chlamydiae cause a wide range of diseases. Chlamydia trachomatis and C. pneumoniae are most commonly associated with human disease. C. psittaci and C. pecorum are largely animal pathogens, although C. psittaci can cause pneumonia in the elderly and immunocompromised. A vaccine against these pathogens is desirable,...

Northern goshawk breeding habitat selection within high-elevation forests of southwestern Colorado

Creator:: Ferland, Cheron L.
Abstract:: The northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) is a species of concern in the western United States due to its association with mature structural stage forests. I employed a use-versus-availability study design to quantify the vegetative, physiographic, and landscape variables associated with goshawk breeding habitat selection in the San Juan Mountains of...

Effect of cosputtered catalyst on growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition

Creator:: Gunderson, Eric P.
Abstract:: The effect of cosputtered catalyst on growth and alignment of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) grown by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) was investigated. Aligned CNTs were observed using a cosputtered catalytic metal deposited directly on boro-aluminosilicate glass. Catalytic metal alloys were sputtered directly onto the substrate using magnetron sputtering. Deposition...

An assessment of thermal hydraulic analysis methods for pressurized thermal shock evaluations

Creator:: Young, Eric P.
Abstract:: Improved methods of determining temperature transients in reactor systems are desired because of recent interest in Pressurized Thermal Shock (PTS) issues. The research presented herein was performed in support of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's effort to re-evaluate its existing PTS rules. These rules are particularly important to the re-licensing of...

Climate Change and Management Considerations for the Boreal Forest Zone

Creator:: Habeeb, Gabrielle A.
Abstract:: The boreal forest zone is located in the cool, high latitudes of the earth and represents approximately one third of the world’s remaining forested area. Maintaining the functional capacity of boreal forests is of global importance as they will both affect and be affected by climate change. Boreal forests can...

Defining oppression, demanding childhood : the vision and work of an Indian social action group

Creator:: Henderson, Laura A.
Abstract:: Mukti Ashram is a rehabilitation center in north India that works with ex-child laborer boys. Fieldwork completed at the ashram in 1997-98 centered around the issue of the organization's attempt to enact social change through the engineering of community within the ashram's walls. Several fundamental processes that contribute to this...

Late Pleistocene Slip Rate along the Panamint Valley Fault System, Eastern California

Creator:: Choi, Na Hyung
Abstract:: The Eastern California Shear Zone (ECSZ) is a broad zone of dextral shear inboard of the North American - Pacific plate boundary. Despite decades of study, the significance of a mismatch between geodetic velocities and geologic fault slip rates across the ECSZ remains incompletely understood. Geodetically determined interseismic strain across...
