Hypervitaminosis A : effects on reproduction and interactions with pyrrolizidine alkaloids

Creator:: Moghaddam, Mehran Fallah
Abstract:: In the first experiment the minimum dietary toxic levels of vitamin A were determined in pregnant rabbits over three parities. The treatments consisted of basal diet plus 10,000, 30,000, 60,000, and 90,000 IU/Kg added vitamin A. The basal diet was formulated to be free of vitamin A and beta-carotene; rice...

Simulating extreme total water levels using a time-dependent, extreme value approach

Creator:: Serafin, Katherine A.
Abstract:: Coastal flood hazard zones and the design of coastal defenses are often devised using either the maximum recorded total water level (TWL) or a 'design' event such as the 100-year return-level flood, usually projected from observed extreme events. Despite technological advances driving more consistent instrumental records of wave heights and...

Discovering Antigone: A Non-Normative Political Figure

Creator:: Patten, Jennifer A.
Abstract:: This thesis analyzes Sophocles’ classic Greek tragedy Antigone as it relates to biopolitics, biopower, democratic language and non-normative principles of politics.

Developing climate records from speleothems, Oregon Caves National Monument, Oregon

Creator:: Vacco, David A.
Abstract:: A stalagmite (sample OCNM8-02A) collected from Oregon Caves National Monument (OCNM) was sampled for stable isotope ratios in order to develop a record of Pacific Northwest climate history. Nine U-series dates indicate that the record spans the time period - 13.5 - 9.5 ka. The stalagmite growth rate varied from...

The loading of second-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco): to simulate the forces acting on an intermediate support tree

Creator:: Sedlak, Jerome Peter
Abstract:: The comercial thinning of second-growth stands in the Pacific Northwest is becoming increasingly important for satisfying the demand for timber. Cable logging will require the rigging of smaller intermediate support trees rather than those utilized on old-growth timber sales. This paper reports on the results of a study designed to...

Assessing Coastal Community Adaptation Scenarios in the Face of Climate Change : A Tillamook County, Oregon Example

Creator:: Lipiec, Eva
Abstract:: Recent coastal disasters (e.g., Hurricane Sandy, Typhoon Haiyan) and chronic issues (e.g., Florida's "nuisance flooding") provide numerous examples of coastal communities struggling to adapt in the face of climate change impacts. Decision-makers and the public alike must reconcile the lack of "fit" between a rapidly changing environment and the effects...

The effect of preplanned skid trails and winching on a partial-cut

Creator:: Bradshaw, George Richard
Abstract:: This paper describes the results of a study conducted in the Sierra Nevadas located in California to determine the production rates, s.kidding costs and the extent of soil disturbance and compaction on two partial cut units harvested with a Caterpillar D-7F. A harvest unit with preplanned skid trails and winching...

Assessing physical vulnerability of the coast in light of a changing climate : an integrated, multi-hazard, multi-timescale approach

Creator:: Harris, Erica L.
Abstract:: Hazards threaten coastal communities and ecosystems over a wide range of spatiotemporal scales. One of the most pressing concerns for coastal property owners, decision makers, and researchers is the uncertain role that a changing climate will have on the intensity and frequency of these hazards. The significant uncertainties associated with...
