A procedure for estimating the carbon budget of terrestrial ecosystems in the former Soviet Union by geographic information system analysis and classification of AVHRR derived Global Vegetation Index

Creator:: Gaston, Greg G.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to develop methods for using geographic information system (GIS) analysis and unsupervised classification of Global Vegetation Index (GVI) images to improve carbon budget estimates of the former Soviet Union (FSU). A GIS was used to locate the geographic distribution and estimate the area of...

Evaluation of rabbit breeds and crosses for overall commercial productivity

Creator:: Lukefahr, Steven D.
Abstract:: In two breeding experiments, straightbred and crossbred rabbits were evaluated for performance characters relating to reproduction, disease resistance, growth and carcass quality. In the first experiment, New Zealand White CNN) and Flemish Giant (FG) straightbreds and FG sire x (Florida White-New Zealand White dam) terminal-crossbreds (TX) were involved. Reproductive performance...

The role of perinatal androgens in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of the gray-tailed vole, Microtus canicaudus

Creator:: Spielvogel, Sandra Petersen
Abstract:: These studies examined the role of perinatal androgen in the development of neuroendocrine and behavioral characteristics of gray-tailed voles, Microtus canicaudus. When mature, females exhibited alternating vaginal smear patterns or persistent vaginal cornification; estrogen and progesterone concentrations were not correlated with vaginal smear patterns. Corpora lutea were not observed in...

Port-Orford-cedar and Phytophthora lateralis : grafting and heritability of resistance in the host, and variation in the pathogen

Creator:: McWilliams, Michael G.
Abstract:: Port-Orford-cedar (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) is a forest tree native to a small area of Oregon and California. A root disease caused by Phytophthora lateralis causes widespread mortality of Port-Orford-cedar. This dissertation examines three important elements of the Port-Orford-cedar P. lateralis pathosystem related to breeding for disease resistance: use of resistant rootstocks...

Recruitment of ponderosa pine seedlings beneath partial overstories

Creator:: Keyes, Christopher R.
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to investigate the fate of ponderosa pine regeneration from seed to established seedling, and to determine the relative influences of several important stand elements on those fates. The project was carried out in a series of observational and experimental recruitment studies in central Oregon....

Design, construction, and characterization of a neutron depth profiling facility at the Oregon State University TRIGA® reactor with an advanced digital spectroscopy system

Creator:: Robinson, Joshua A.
Abstract:: In this work, Neutron Depth Profiling (NDP) analysis capability has been added to the Oregon State University TRIGA® Reactor Prompt Gamma Neutron Activation Analysis Facility (PGNAA). This system has been implemented with an advanced digital spectroscopy system and is capable of rise time pulse shape analysis as well as coincidence...

Quantifying the Relative Role of the Key Drivers of Coastal Dune Evolution: Observations and Simulations Across a Range of Time and Space Scales in Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina

Creator:: Hovenga, Paige A.
Abstract:: Coastal dunes provide a diverse set of ecosystem services including coastal protection against destructive surge and waves during storm events. Dunes are constantly evolving through various stages of response to storm events and post-storm recovery at rates that vary due to a range of drivers including pre-existing morphology, environmental forcing...

Development and Applications of Oxide Thin Films using Atomic Layer Deposition and Prompt Inorganic Condensation

Creator:: Smith, Sean Weston
Abstract:: In the first part of this work, thin films of Al₂O₃ deposited via atomic layer deposition (ALD) are demonstrated to improve the thermal stability of cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) aerogels. ALD is a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) like method in which sequential precursor exposures and self-limited surface reactions produce a conformal...

Developmental neurobehavioral toxicity of bisphenol A in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Saili, Katerine Schletz
Abstract:: Billions of pounds of bisphenol A (BPA) are produced annually around the globe for the manufacture of numerous consumer products, including polycarbonate food and water containers, the protective resin linings of food cans, thermal printing paper, and dental fillings. BPA exposure during nervous system development has been associated with learning...
