John Fiske's philosophy of science : the union of science and religion through the principle of evolution

Creator:: Lester, Jacob Franklin
Abstract:: Modern science was produced by a Christian society, and although science has had an effect on Christianity, it could not itself remain unaffected. In the second half of the nineteenth century, the subject of evolution was as much a religious as a scientific issue. The battle line was drawn and...

Mixed-Severity Fire Effects on Biological Legacies and Vegetation Response in Pseudotsuga Forests of Western Oregon's Central Cascades, USA

Creator:: Dunn, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Mixed-severity fire occurrence is increasingly recognized in Pseudotsuga forests of the Pacific Northwest, but questions remain about how tree mortality varies, and forest structure is altered, across the disturbance gradient observed in these fires. Therefore, we sampled live and dead biological legacies at 45 one ha plots, with four 0.10...

Biochemical effects of tumorigenic enhancers

Creator:: Christopher, John Paul
Abstract:: 2 -acetylaminofluorene -induced hepatocarcinogenesis in rats proceeds in stages of initiation and promotion, similar to experimental systems, in mouse skin. In this study promoters of liver tumorigenesis, phenobarbital, DDT and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), were compared to non-promoters, amobarbital, diphenylhydantoin (DPH) and benz(a)anthracene (BA), for their ability to cause liver growth...

Level structure of ¹⁵²Gd populated in ¹⁵²Tb β decay

Creator:: Stapels, Christopher John
Abstract:: As part of a research program to study the transitional region of N=88 isotones, ¹⁵²Tb was produced by the reaction ¹⁵¹Eu(α,3n)¹⁵²Tb in the 88" cyclotron located at LBNL. Gamma-ray spectroscopy of the radiation emitted from excited ¹⁵²Gd following the β⁺ decay of ¹⁵²Tb has been performed using an array of...

Behavioral ecology of juvenile coho salmon (O. kisutch) in stream aquaria with particular reference to competition and aggressive behavior

Creator:: Mason, John Christopher
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Branching processes and partial differential equations

Creator:: Orum, John Christopher
Abstract:: The recursive and stochastic representation of solutions to the Fourier transformed Navier-Stokes equations, as introduced by [34], is extended in several ways. First, associated families of functions known as majorizing kernels are analyzed, in light of their apparently essential role in the representation. Second, the theory is put on a...

John Archibald Wheeler : a study of mentoring in modern physics

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

Topological Design Considering Uncertainty and Hyperelasticity

Creator:: Pham, Trung
Abstract:: Topology optimization (TO) is a mathematical method to find the optimal size, shape and connectivity of a domain under specified conditions, and has had many applications in engineering design. However, challenges remain in realizing TO as an effective design tool for many design situations. Uncertainty is ubiquitous in nature and...

Cumulative effects of land use on salmon habitat in southwest Oregon coastal streams

Creator:: Frissell, Christopher Andrew, 1960-
Abstract:: As part of a hierarchical approach to classifying watersheds and stream habitats based on geomorphic and geologic criteria, we defined ten classes of fluvial and lacustrine habitats at the scale of valley segments. Valley segments are landscape units which encompass surface waters and the adjacent floodplains and hillslopes with which...
