The effects of increased supply and emerging technologies in the forest products industry on rural communities in the northwest U.S.

Creator:: Crandall, Mindy S.
Abstract:: The development of a market for currently non-merchantable forest material, such as harvest residues of tops and limbs of trees or small diameter trees, has been suggested as a possible win-win solution that could: (i) provide a financial incentive to help motivate treatments to reduce wildfire risk or restore forest...

Mothering a child with autism in the United States and in South Korea

Creator:: You, Hyun-Kyung
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I qualitatively examined the meaning of mothering a child with autism in two countries: the United States and South Korea. The overarching research question focused on how sociocultural ideas about mothering and disability, particularly autism spectrum disorders, shape women’s understanding of themselves and their children with disabilities....

Development of novel analytical methods to detect emerging contaminants in aqueous environmental matrices using large-volume injection

Creator:: Backe, Will J.
Abstract:: It is the responsibility of humans, as environmental stewards, to monitor our impact on the environment so that efforts can be made to remediate the effects of our actions and change behaviors. To better understand our environmental footprint, sensitive and simple analytical methods are needed to quantify the contaminants that...

Advancing Nanotechnology for Photoacoustic Imaging

Creator:: St Lorenz, Anna
Abstract:: Curbing overall disease burden with faster intervention requires early stage and accurate diagnostics. Ultrasound (US) provides a safe, nonionizing, inexpensive, and noninvasive imaging modality that has become commonplace in diagnostics. Paired with the relatively new technology of photoacoustic imaging (PAI), optical level resolution becomes feasible with the deeper signal penetration...

Understanding Circadian and Light-activated Transcriptional Regulatory Changes During Aging in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Fey, Rosalyn M.
Abstract:: Systems biology is a powerful approach which considers and sheds light on all of the puzzle pieces which make up complex biological processes, and is an effective alternative to unraveling these processes using traditional molecular approaches alone. It is a natural companion approach for computational biology, which leverages the power...

The role of zinc in the molecular and cellular events in the prostate

Creator:: Yan, Michelle
Abstract:: Zinc is an essential mineral that is integral to many proteins and transcription factors that regulate key cellular functions. The normal prostate accumulates high concentrations of zinc; however, malignant tissues have significantly lower zinc levels. This unique relationship between zinc and the prostate has sparked interest in the role of...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFASs) and Aqueous Film-Forming Foam Impacted Sites : New PFAS Discovery and Sorption of Anionic, Zwitterionic, and Cationic PFASs

Creator:: Barzen-Hanson, Krista A.
Abstract:: Public attention and concern about per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are increasing due to detection of PFASs in drinking water supplies, the environment, including remote locations, and wildlife and to the lowering of the federal health advisory levels of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoate (PFOA) in drinking water. Aqueous film-forming...

Model assessment of the effects of land use change on hydrologic response

Creator:: Vache, Kellie B.
Abstract:: The effect of landuse change on the hydrologic, biogeochemical and ecological response of watersheds is a concern throughout the world. To help characterize the potential magnitude of such changes, and of the potential to remediate or avoid undesirable features, studies focused on the cumulative watershed effects of site level change...

DNA binding and beyond : an investigation of proteins involved in PAH-induced carcinogesesis

Creator:: Hooven, Louisa Ada
Abstract:: Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) has been determined to be a risk factor for various forms of human cancer. PAH DNA adducts have been shown to cause mutations, but carcinogenesis is also accompanied by alterations in gene expression. Inhibiting individual cytochrome P450s could clarify the interaction...

Biological durability of cross-laminated timber connections

Creator:: Udele, Kenneth E.
Abstract:: Mass timber (MT) offers viable eco-conscious solutions within the building industry, with its high strength ratings, dimensional stability, light weight and renewable nature enhancing its status as a low carbon alternative to conventional building materials like steel and concrete. Moisture intrusion, coupled with the inherent organic nature of wood pose...
