Creator:: Becker, Elizabeth S.
Abstract:: Globally, it is estimated that over 2,518,200 tons of hides and skins were exported in the year 2011 alone, with an estimated world production yield of 23 billion square feet of finished leather (FA0, 2011; Mwinyihija, 2011). While some manufacturers have adopted eco-friendly production methods, most tanneries still practice the...

How well do American viticultural areas correspond with the soil classes in Oregon's northern Willamette Valley? A question for the wine industry

Creator:: Wood, Douglas T.
Abstract:: The specific geography of individual wine growing regions has long been understood to be a significant factor in predicting both a region’s success in producing high quality grapes, and the resulting demand for wines produced from that region's fruit. In the American wine industry, American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) are increasingly...

The effects of fermentation on the thiamin, riboflavin, and amino acid content of African locust-bean seeds

Creator:: Adegoroye, Modupe Elizabeth
Abstract:: The effects of fermentation on selected nutrients in the seed of the African locust-bean were investigated. The protein content of the seeds declined from 50.1% of dry weight in the unfermented sample to 32.4% of dry weight in the fully fermented sample. Methionine, cystine, and tryptophan were the limiting amino...

Ti plasmid coded protein in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Creator:: Engelgau, Michael Maurice
Abstract:: Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogenic bacteria which incites crown gall tumors. Although virulence has been associated with a 97-156 Mdalton "tumor-inducing" (Ti) plasmid, few potential plasmid gene products have been identified. The objective of this study was to identify plasmid-coded gene products through a comparison of protein fingerprints of...

Evaluation of Deforestation in the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve, Honduras

Creator:: Wade, Michael C.
Abstract:: Satellite imagery has been a useful tool in monitoring land cover changes, including changes within protected areas. In the 1980’s and 1990’s Honduras created over 100 protected areas, yet few resources have been dedicated to their management. This study used Landsat satellite imagery to evaluate deforestation in the Río Plátano...

Effects of land use policy on urban growth rates in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Davis, Ellen and Davis, Ellen H.
Abstract:: This study seeks to determine the correlation between changes in statewide land use planning policies and the resulting periods of high or low urban growth in the Willamette Valley, Oregon using automated classification methods and freely available satellite imagery. To protect its farms, forests and open spaces, Oregon became the...

Detecting changes in a wetland : using multi-spectral and temporal Landsat in the Upper Noun Valley Drainage Basin-Cameroon

Creator:: Ndzeidze, Stephen Koghan
Abstract:: Since the early 1980s, satellite imagery has been commonly used to detect change in wetlands. The overall objective of this study is to utilize remote sensing and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technology to determine the extent of change of the wetland area and of other land use and land cover...
