Transboundary Water Management Among the Riparian States of the Mekong: Using the Water Governance Reform Framework to Prevent Conflict

Creator:: Eilers, Michael
Abstract:: Few river systems in the world are under equal or more stress than Southeast(SE) Asia’s Mekong River. Several factors threaten the Mekong as the riparian states of China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam jockey for position within its geopolitical sphere. Climate change, globalization,industrialization, urbanization, economic growth, and hydro-hegemony...

A revision of the black grass bug genus Irbisia Reuter (Heteroptera:Miridae)

Creator:: Schwartz, Michael David
Abstract:: The black grass bug genus Irbisia Reuter was revised. Over 18,000 specimens were examined and information concerning the biology, host plant and distributional relationships of the species was compiled. In addition to external characters, the male claspers and vesica, and the female dorsal libiate plate of the bursa copulatrix and...

Breeding food barley : from agronomic assessment to marker assisted selection

Creator:: Rey, Juan Ignacio
Abstract:: This research was undertaken to provide barley growers, processors, and consumers with quality food barley. Because all currently available varieties of food barley are of spring growth habit, the first phase of the research involved agronomic assessment of these varieties under Oregon conditions. Because winter barley usually yields more than...

What Lies Below: Options to Improve Sustainable Management of U.S./Mexico Transboundary Aquifers

Creator:: Welch, Christina, N.
Abstract:: Globally, as surface water quality and quantity diminishes there is increasing reliance on groundwater to buffer water demands of growing populations. Today in many arid regions around the world aquifer pumping rates far exceed recharge rates. Often the groundwater is nonrenewable, or thousands of years old. Despite the known hydrologic...

Bioprospecting the Chemical Diversity of Plant-associated Fungi

Creator:: González-Montiel, Gisela Abigail
Abstract:: Fungi have long been used for discovery of new chemical scaffolds. In the clinical setting, the fungal natural products penicillin, statins, and cyclosporine have revolutionized medicine to treat diseases and infections. In the environment, fungal natural products have been used as herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides to protect crops, livestock, and...

Comparing Sediment Microbial Communities of Arctic Beaver Ponds to Tundra Lakes and Streams

Creator:: Shannon, Kelly
Abstract:: In recent decades the habitat of North American beaver (Castor canadensis) has expanded from boreal forests into pan-Arctic tundra ecosystems. It is unknown how the advance of beavers into Arctic watersheds will impact microbial communities responsible for the mineralization of organic matter (OM), which has implications for carbon cycling. To...

Songbird Mobbing of Northern Pygmy-Owls: A Function of Risk Across Landscapes and Seasons

Creator:: Scott, Madeleine
Abstract:: The evolutionary arms race between predators and prey has led to a diverse set of interactions between species. Prey have developed an array of behaviors designed to reduce their risk of predation. Among those strategies, mobbing is a paradoxical behavior where prey actually approach predators, often in large multi-species flocks....
