Creator:: O'Flaherty, Larrance Michael
Abstract:: Aphanizomenon flos-aquae from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon was introduced into culture in a precipitate -free medium developed by modification of McLachlan's ASM medium. This medium ASMT No. 8 contained no organic substances other than ethylendiaminetetraacetate (EDTA) and Trishydroxymethylamino methane (Tris), and was developed by modifying the concentrations of certain elements,...

A study of acculturation : ORMU57, Portland's Old Chinatown, ca. 1870-1920

Creator:: Wernz, Maralee
Abstract:: This archaeological based research uses ceramics in the study of acculturation from a site excavated by an urban archaeology contract firm, and utilizes the theories of consumer choice, ethnicity and acculturation. Artifact analysis took place in the form of minimum vessel counts, artifact relative frequencies, and Chinese artifact values, as...

Sexologists, What of the Night?: Parody and Resistance in Nightwood

Creator:: Simpson, Taylor
Abstract:: The present study considers the mid-nineteenth century origins of the term “sexual inversion,” as it became applied to a variety of nonnormative subjects and sexual practices.

Creator:: Bennett, Laura E.
Abstract:: Mainstream local food systems focus on environmental and individual health, but labor is out of sight and out of mind. We begin with a story that introduces the immigrant in the room, the locavore’s blind spots, and the need to move beyond mainstream environmentalism and embrace social justice. In the...

Geoarchaeological research within five river miles of the Upper Klamath River Canyon : use of pedogenic properties to calculate alluvial terrace age

Creator:: Hescock, Sara
Abstract:: Soil is a valuable medium when investigating the past-- from understanding rates of development, landform evolution, to the construction of various predictive models. Landforms and sediments provide insight into depositional environments and soil morphology indicates pedogenic change within those landforms. The rate at which pedogenesis occurs has been quantitatively measured...

William Ernest Castle, American geneticist : a case-study in the impact of the Mendelian research program

Creator:: Taylor, H. Terry
Abstract:: In their modern context questions of heredity have come to be closely aligned with theories of evolution because all such theories require the presence of heritable variation. Thus the need for an understanding of a source of variation and a mechanism for its inheritance became very apparent with the general...

A revision of the North American species of Pactopus Leconte and Trixagus Kugelann (Coleoptera: Throscidae)

Creator:: Yensen, Arthur Eric
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to find means of separating the morphologically similar species of North American Trixagus and to bring together information on Trixagus and Pactopus. A key to separate the world's eight genera of extant Throscidae is presented for the first time. A key to the five species of...

Twentieth century influences on public library service to certain adult groups

Creator:: Ashwell, Sara Elizabeth
Abstract:: The purpose of this study has been to develop insight into the aims and goals of public library service by considering one particular type of library activity--work with adult groups. To determine the influence of historical events on such service, consideration has been given to group work of the past...

Science, service, and specialized agriculture : the re-invention of the maraschino cherry

Creator:: Jolly, J. Christopher
Abstract:: From 1925 to 1930, Ernest H. Wiegand, a professor of Horticultural Products at Oregon State Agricultural College, developed an improved brining process for cherries. Brined cherries are used in the production of maraschino and glacé cherries, which already had a sizable market in the United States by the 1920s. This...
