Sea urchin-kelp forest communities in marine reserves and areas of exploitation : community interactions, populations, and metapopulation analyses

Creator:: Moctezuma, Gabriela Montaño
Abstract:: Marine ecosystems can be exposed to natural and anthropogenic disturbances that can lead to ecological failures. Marine reserves have been lately suggested to protect marine populations and communities that have been affected by habitat destruction and harvest. This research evaluates the potential role of two marine reserves established in Oregon...

The effects of dietary algal and lipid supplements on the gonadal and larval development of Crassostrea gigas kumamoto (Thunberg)

Creator:: Robinson, Anja M.
Abstract:: Under laboratory conditions, elevated temperatures accelerated production of gametes. However, when conditioning for spawning at elevated temperatures was initiated early in the season (January-March), larval survival and number of spat collected were significantly lower than when conditioning was initiated in may or June. At elevated temperatures, broodstock oysters were fed...

Utilization of dietary protein by the mussel, Mytilus edulis trossulus (Linnaeus 1758)

Creator:: Kreeger, Daniel A.
Abstract:: Protein microcapsules (PM) were developed as a tool for investigating aspects of dietary protein utilization by mussels, Mytilus edulis trossulus. Digestion of PM in vitro by protease, trypsin, amylase and extracts from the gut of mussels varied significantly depending on the type of protein encapsulated or whether carbohydrates were added...

Population ecology of the Columbian white-tailed deer

Creator:: Gavin, Thomas Alan
Abstract:: A population of Columbian white-tailed deer (CWTD) was studied on a refuge (790 ha) in southwestern Washington during 1972-77. Quality of habitat was considered good for these deer and total population size remained between 164-230 as determined by mark-recapture methods during November. Population size declined significantly between the winters of...

Impact of Dairy Manure Digestate on Microbial Activities in Soil

Creator:: Waggoner, Ashley L
Abstract:: Amendments and fertilizers applied to optimize crop production and improve soil health also supply inputs of soil organic matter (SOM) and nutrients that affect soil microorganisms. In the dairy-intensive Pacific Northwest, dairy manure is stored as slurry mixtures until conditions are appropriate for soil application. During storage, the manure begins...

Co-producing Software for Environmental and Ecological Visualization

Creator:: Zanocco, Chad
Abstract:: Environmental scientists, land managers, and policy actors are increasingly presented with high-stakes high-uncertainty problems stemming from human-ecosystem interactions. To help address these problems, scientists frequently use models that produce enormous geospatial and temporal datasets that are constantly modified and often seek input from communities outside their discipline. To assist scientists—as...

Using Biodiversity Distribution Data to Support Landscape Conservation and Management in Colombia

Creator:: Zárrate-Charry, Diego A.
Abstract:: Global biodiversity decline is primarily driven by habitat loss. Deforestation, the primary driver of terrestrial habitat loss, is increasing worldwide, with the most significant impact in the world biodiversity hotspots. Sadly, specific knowledge of such impacts in biodiversity-rich but data-poor countries are still unknown, and many national and regional narratives...

Quantitative Trait Loci and Genome Wide Association Study for Resistance to White Mold in Common (Snap) Bean.

Creator:: Arkwazee, Haidar A.
Abstract:: This is a Ph.D. dissertation for a study conducted at OSU/Horticulture. The main objective of this study was dissecting the genetic background for white mold resistance in common (snap) bean. Tow main approaches were followed to achieve the goal. The first approach was using the classical quantitative trait loci (QTL)...

Utilizing relational and social network analysis to inform community-based climate change adaptation : a central Oregon case study

Creator:: Jacobs, Derric B.
Abstract:: Central Oregon's landscape is rich in dry forests prone to frequent wildfires. Climate change studies and improved modeling indicate this region could experience conditions that result in an increase in number and severity of wildfires. With the potential for increased environmental hazards, the nearby communities face potential risks and vulnerabilities...
