Marine Nitrogen Subsidies to Terrestrial Systems: Transport Through Wrack Deposition

Creator:: Traylor, Andrew
Abstract:: Fluctuations in one system affect adjacent systems; mechanistic understanding of linkages helps conservation efforts be more effective by focusing on influential species and areas that facilitate connections between ecosystems. This study explored marine-derived nutrient inputs to adjacent terrestrial communities. We quantified wrack (seaweed and other organic matter) deposition at sites...

Introduction of a Mathematical Model to Characterize Relative Risk of Snakebite Envenoming, a Neglected Tropical Disease

Creator:: Kim, Soyeon
Abstract:: Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that has received increased research attention in the past few years. However, snakebite prevalence and impact in India has been a neglected area of study, despite the high disease burden in this region. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches to studying snakebite processes are...

Analysis of particulate organic matter distribution along surface waters of the California Current

Creator:: Welch, Kylie
Abstract:: Water samples along the Washington, Oregon and California coastline were collected using high resolution sampling and analyzed to determine particulate organic carbon and nitrogen concentrations. Over 28 days during August 2011, nearly 1500 samples were collected aboard the R/V Wecoma (W1108C) using a semi-automated filtration system. Additional subsurface samples were...

Investigating physical drivers of phytoplankton bloom initiation in the Northern Gulf of Alaska

Creator:: Ballantine, Kaleigh
Abstract:: The spring bloom is a key oceanic phenomenon in the Northern Gulf of Alaska (NGA), where it supports the regional ecosystem, fisheries, and CO2 sequestration. Despite its significance, mechanisms that trigger NGA blooms are still debated, largely due to a lack of sufficient data from late winter through spring. New...

The effects of interspecies interactions and environmental conditions on biomass accumulation of sessile organisms within Oregon’s rocky mid-intertidal habitats

Creator:: Carsh, Alexander C.
Abstract:: With changing climate conditions and human impacts on ecosystems becoming a big focus of study, it has become even more crucial to understand how our ecosystems work. Community structure within rocky intertidal habitats is governed by a mix of environmental conditions and species interactions. This project examined the effects of...

A quantitative analysis of three-dimensional contact guidance by breast cancer cells

Creator:: Krnacik, Emma A.
Abstract:: Exploring and quantifying the parameters regarding contact guidance may provide valuable insight to the precise mechanisms controlling cell movement, especially in a three-dimensional environment. The objective of this project was to quantify the relationship between MDA-MB-231 cell morphogenesis and the geometry of the cell’s local microenvironment, which was modeled by...

Coaction of a Biomedical Device and Physiological Model for Thalassemia Therapy Modeling: Methods and Future Approaches

Creator:: Hull, Darke
Abstract:: The Jovanovic lab at Oregon State University (OSU) is developing iCore, a versatile blood processing platform which leverages microfluidic process intensification via increased mass transfer efficiency and decreased device footprint with the goal of creating a portable, wearable device. One application of iCore is for the treatment of hyperferremia resulting...

Numerical Simulation of a Thouless Pump

Creator:: Wall, Bryce
Abstract:: At the macroscopic scale, we have pumps that use the classical laws of physics to move liquids at a well defined rate. In the microscopic world, physicists are exploring pumps that make use of quantum mechanical behavior to build analogous pumps for quantum particles. The importance of such “quantum pumps”...

An ethnomusicological study of the globalization of the quena in Andean music and the world

Creator:: Bustamante, Galo C.
Abstract:: This ethnomusicological study has examined the forces that have globalized the Andean instrument of the quena and the genre of Andean music as a whole. This thesis specifically addresses the cultural, and socio-political factors over the last century that has led to the quena being circulated across the globe. Much...

A Different Kind of Fatigue : A Cross-Cultural Analysis of the Etiology of Burnout in Medical Literature

Creator:: Tran, Jessica
Abstract:: The rate of physician dissatisfaction is steadily rising. Between 2011 and 2012, the number of physicians that would not choose a career in medicine if given the opportunity to decide again increased by 15% (Adams). This discontentment has major repercussions in the midst of the rising need for physicians: it...
