Singing behavior of the Bewick's wren : development, dialects, population structure, and geographical variation

Creator:: Kroodsma, Donald E.
Abstract:: The songs of the Bewick's Wren are discrete units of one to three seconds duration with intersong intervals several times the length of the song. Individual song repertoires at the William Finley National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon, range from 13 to 20 song types, and a given song type is repeated...

The effect of the consumption of three types of dietary fish on cardiovascular risk predictors

Creator:: Patton, Beverly D.
Abstract:: Epidemiological studies have suggested that the consumption of fish may reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Compared to the number of studies using fish oils, few studies have used fish itself. Those which have used fish have generally used fattier fish such as mackerel and salmon as part of an...

Ruminant and microbial physio-chemical response to abrupt ration changes as influenced by chemical and/or biological means

Creator:: Patton, Westley R.
Abstract:: Three trials with wethers and four trials with steers were conducted to determine some of the effects of sodium bicarbonate, calcium hydroxide and/or transfer of ruminal contents on ruminant adjustment to abrupt changes to concentrate rations. Lambs fed a basal concentrate diet plus sodium bicarbonate had the highest average feed...

Development of vehicle dynamics tools for motorsports

Creator:: Patton, Chris
Abstract:: In this dissertation, a group of vehicle dynamics simulation tools is developed with two primary goals: to accurately represent vehicle behavior and to provide insight that improves the understanding of vehicle performance. Three tools are developed that focus on tire modeling, vehicle modeling and lap time simulation. Tire modeling is...

Out-of-pocket health care expenditures and household food insecurity among families with children

Creator:: Patton-Lopez, Megan M.
Abstract:: Since the late 1990s accelerated growth in health care spending coupled with a cost shift of health insurance from employers to employees has created an increased financial burden for many families. Past research suggests that financial burden due to out-of-pocket (OOP) health care costs limits access to health care and...

Influences of high severity fire and postfire logging on avian and small mammal communities of the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Fontaine, Joseph B.
Abstract:: High severity fire is a historical and integral disturbance process in coniferous forest types. Compounded disturbances such as multiple fires or post-disturbance management activities are increasingly common, but ecological responses are not well understood and may represent novel types of disturbances. I studied bird and small mammal communities in the...

Nature of interlayer material in silicate clays of selected Oregon soils

Creator:: Singleton, P. C.
Abstract:: A study was conducted to investigate the nature of hydroxy interlayers in the chlorite-like intergrade clays of three Oregon soils with respect to kind, amount, stability, and conditions of formation. The clays of the Hembre, Wren, and Lookout soils, selected to represent weathering products originating from basaltic materials under humid,...

A Social Constructivist Perspective Connecting Engineering Practice and Engineering Education

Creator:: Panther, Grace C.
Abstract:: Calls for reform within engineering education frequently cite the need to better prepare the future workforce for the imminent challenges that they will face. The focus in preparing students for the workforce is often on the educational system and not on understanding the actual workplace. But if we are to...

How Behavior, Physiology, and Ontogeny of Klamath Redband Trout Shape the Functionality of Habitats in a Landscape of Temperature Extremes

Creator:: Hahlbeck, Nicholas J.
Abstract:: Climate change is a global phenomenon, but natural selection occurs within landscapes. A central tenet of landscape ecology is that mobile species depend on complementary habitats, which are insufficient in isolation, but combine to support animals through the full annual cycle. For coldwater fishes, it is widely assumed that maximum...
