Defining micro-habitat relationships for juvenile black rockfish, Sebastes melanops

Creator:: Mann, Marion E.
Abstract:: The functioning of marine habitats needs to be understood in the context of the ecological relationships and associations between organisms and the physical and biogenic environment they inhabit. Thus, it becomes important to explore and define habitat features which contribute to these relationships and which are important in the life...

Rangeland privatization and the Maasai experience : implications for livestock herding, open space, and wildlife conservation in southern Kenya

Creator:: Sundstrom, Shiloh
Abstract:: For centuries in what is now southern Kenya and northern Tanzania, nomadic, Maasai livestock herders have coexisted with vast populations of wildlife. Today, both wildlife and the Maasai herding lifestyle, a vital component of Maasai culture, are threatened by changes to the landscape and losses in mobility, including the policy...

Influence of supplement composition on utilization of low-quality, cool-season forages by beef cattle

Creator:: McGuire, Dustin L.
Abstract:: Two studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of supplement composition on intake and digestibility of a low-quality (< 6% CP), cool-season forage, as well as cow performance. Treatments included a non-supplemented control (CON), corn (approximately 8% CP), corn and urea (LU = corn + 0.09 mg/kg BW urea, approximately...

Knowledge, information-seeking behavior, and health beliefs about prostate cancer and breast cancer among men 18-40 years of age : a pilot study and comparative analysis

Creator:: Johnson, Brian Keith
Abstract:: Prostate cancer is responsible for a substantial loss of life and burden of suffering among adult males. Evidence suggests that the risk of morbidity and mortality from prostate cancer can be reduced through specific screening and dietary practices (MCI, 2002; Ries et al., 2002). Further evidence suggests that screening can...

Observational Analysis of Extratropical Cyclone Interactions with Northeast Pacific Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies

Creator:: Phillips, Briana K.
Abstract:: In 2013, a large upper-ocean thermal anomaly formed in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) with sea surface temperatures (SSTs) warmer than 4 degrees Celsius above the climatological norm. This warm anomaly persisted for the next three years and has been linked to downstream effects on North American climate and negative...

Molecular Signaling Patterns of the Articular Cartilage and Marginal Transition Zone in Foals with Osteochondrosis

Creator:: Marchant, Liz
Abstract:: Osteochondrosis (OC) is a developmental orthopedic disease that results from a disruption to normal endochondral ossification in the articular-epiphyseal growth complex. In mammals, the hedgehog pathway and growth factor signaling are essential to this process. Previous studies in yearling horses with OC have shown upregulation of Indian hedgehog and insulin-like...

The effect of Blastocystis sp. ST1 on the expression of serotonin transporter,tryptophan hydroxylase, toll-like receptor 2, and toll-like receptor 4 in CACO-2 cellculture

Creator:: Lawrence, Yuri Alexander, 1980-
Abstract:: Blastocystis spp. is a common intestinal parasite in humans and animals that has been associated with acute or chronic digestive disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome. Serotonin mediates intestinal motility, sensation, and secretory function in the normal intestinal tract. Serotonin (5-HT) signaling is decreased in animal models of colitis, as...
