Molecular investigation of the cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis and the identification of genes differentially expressed during bleaching in the coral Montipora capitata

Creator:: Hauck, Laura L.
Abstract:: Cnidarians, such as anemones and corals, engage in an intracellular symbiosis with photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Corals form both the trophic and structural foundation of reef ecosystems. Despite their environmental importance, little is known about the molecular basis of this symbiosis. In this dissertation we explored the cnidariandinoflagellate symbiosis from two perspectives:...

Computational improvements to Benders decomposition for generalized fixed charge problems

Creator:: Battilega, John Anthony
Abstract:: A computationally efficient algorithm has been developed for determining exact or approximate solutions for large scale generalized fixed charge problems. This algorithm is based on a relaxation of the Benders decomposition procedure, combined with a linear mixed integer programming (MIP) algorithm specifically designed to solve the problem associated with Benders...

From multitarget tracking to event recognition in videos

Creator:: Brendel, William
Abstract:: This dissertation addresses two fundamental problems in computer vision—namely, multitarget tracking and event recognition in videos. These problems are challenging because uncertainty may arise from a host of sources, including motion blur, occlusions, and dynamic cluttered backgrounds. We show that these challenges can be successfully addressed by using a multiscale,...

Use of livestock to improve the quality of elk winter range forage in northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Patrick Eugene
Abstract:: The effects of late spring defoliation on the winter forage quality of bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum [Pursh] Scribn. & Smith), Idaho fescue (Festuca idahoensis Elmer) and elk sedge (Carex geyeri Boott) and the response of wintering Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni Bailey) to changes in winter range forage quality...

Response of Canada milkvetch (Astragalus canadensis var. mortonii (Nutt.) Wats.) to range and forest improvement practices in Northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Wood, Benjamin William
Abstract:: The response of Canada milkvetch (Astragalus canadensis var. mortonii) to range and forest improvement practices was studied on a stand of mixed-coniferous forest which was clear -cut and burned in 1963 and 1964, respectively. The field studies were conducted on the Hall Ranch of the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station during...

Fish oral antigen delivery system development and optimization

Creator:: Zhang, Jia Ai (Allen)
Abstract:: Oral administration is the most practical way of vaccination of fish. It has advantages over intraperitoneal injection and immersion methods that include no stressful handling, no interference with routine fish husbandry and antigens can be delivered to the fish in their feed. An oral antigen delivery system was developed for...

Nonlinear oscillations, bifurcations and chaos in ocean mooring systems

Creator:: Gottlieb, Oded
Abstract:: Complex nonlinear and chaotic responses have been recently observed in various compliant ocean systems. These systems are characterized by a nonlinear mooring restoring force and a coupled fluid-structure interaction exciting force. A general class of ocean mooring system models is formulated by incorporating a variable mooring configuration and the exact...

An investigation of the relationship between Christian religious ideology and identity achievement in selected university students

Creator:: Parker, Carl Edward
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a relationship between identity achievement and Christian religious ideology in selected university students attending Oregon State University. The sample consisted of two hundred and forty-nine students enrolled during the winter quarter 1978 in Psychology and Education courses. The respondents...

The compared perceptions of a senior high school by teachers and students as measured by the Stern High school Characteristics Index

Creator:: Buhl, Anthony Joseph
Abstract:: Purpose: This investigation was conducted to determine whether or not teachers and students perceive the environmental press of a secondary school differently, and whether or not teacher groups and student groups vary in their perceptions. Conceptual Framework: "Press" i s a construct which expresses the assumption of elements in the...

Selective detection for gas chromatography by ultraviolet spectrometry

Creator:: Van Engelen, Debra L.
Abstract:: Spectrometric detection systems for gas chromatography (GC) based on gas phase ultraviolet absorbance and fluorescence measurements have been developed and evaluated in this research. Polynuclear aromatic compounds (PNAs) are selectively detected by these systems. Limits of detection for PNAs range from 4 ng to 90 ng for absorbance determinations, and...
