Functional groups, traits, and the performance of species in restoration

Creator:: Roberts, Rachael E. (Rachael Elaine)
Abstract:: In ecological restoration, species that are sown to increase the native plant diversity range in establishment ability. Some species readily establish, while others rarely do. This study set out to investigate some of the potential processes influencing species establishment, as well as the traits that are associated with the success...

Influence of site, soil, and inoculum density on dwarf bunt (Tilletia controversa Kühn) of winter wheat

Creator:: Clark, Deborah Ann, 1954-
Abstract:: Field microplot studies conducted over two seasons (1982-1984) evaluated the influence of four physically and chemically diverse soils collected from Pacific Northwest wheat fields on the incidence of dwarf bunt of winter wheat caused by Tilletia controversa Kuhn. These soils were placed at Flora and Pendleton, Oregon to determine the...

Germination and establishment in Willamette Valley native prairie plants

Creator:: Russell, Michael C.
Abstract:: Native plants provide many ecosystem services while also having great beauty and are a valuable component of the landscape. As use of these plants in habitat restoration, agricultural insectary plantings, and home landscapes increases so does demand for information on the basic biology of a group of species that have...

Relative competitive abilities of several common forest species and planted Douglas-fir in western Oregon

Creator:: Naylor-Murphy, Lanea
Abstract:: In terms of production forestry, more often than not any species that is not the crop species is considered a competitor as they are using finite growing resources that would otherwise be available to the crop species. With specific regard to Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) production in the Pacific...

Response to ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation by attached assemblages of estuarine diatoms

Creator:: Brooker, Deborah L.
Abstract:: Global atmospheric pollution from chlorofluorocarbons has the potential of causing significant reductions in the concentrations of stratospheric ozone. If the production of chlorofluorocarbons were to continue into the future at the rate prevalent in 1977, the steady state reduction in total global ozone could be between five percent to ten...

Walrus Vibrissae: Determining Growth Rate, Indication of Niche Variability, and Implications for Climate Resiliency

Creator:: Blackfield, Danielle
Abstract:: Pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus) are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change due to the high reliance on sea ice for safety, transport, and social behaviors. Additionally, the walrus diet consists of predominantly bivalves, whose populations are in decline as a result of ocean acidification. We first determined the...

Initiating health and nutrition programs in rural Oregon using community based participatory research

Creator:: McCulley, Elizabeth
Abstract:: The purpose of this project was to explore health and nutrition concerns and priorities of parents and caregivers of children enrolled in Kids and Company (KidCo) Head Start using Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR). The project examined the feasibility of conducting CBPR with Head Start in the relatively short timeframe...

Analysis of spillway hydrodynamics for total dissolved gas prediction downstream of hydropower projects with free, plunging spillway jets

Creator:: Germann, Nathan A.
Abstract:: During spring and early summer hydropower projects are often forced to spill water through their spillways due to increased river flows of the runoff season. Flows which are directed through spillways--instead of through turbines--contain a substantial amount of energy. Stemming from the high energy content, spillway flows entrain air at...
