Biology and demography of grape phylloxera, Daktulosphaira vitifoliae (Fitch) (Homoptera: Phylloxeridae), in western Oregon

Creator:: Connelly, Anne E.
Abstract:: Grape phylloxera, Daktulosp/iaira vitfoliae (Fitch) development was studied under field and laboratory conditions. The aphid-like insect feeds on Vitis vinfera L. roots producing swellings that decay and lead to vine decline. The only long-term economic solution for control of grape phylloxera (GP) is to plant vines grafted onto a resistant...

Range-wide abundance and fluctuating asymmetry patterns of sagebrush-obligate passerine birds

Creator:: Krissman, Cortnie M.
Abstract:: North American sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) ecosystems are suffering from reductions in habitat extent and quality. Only about 50% of sagebrush remains from pre-settlement conditions, and much of the remaining habitat is fragmented or degraded by invasive species, fire suppression and overgrazing. Sagebrush-obligate species are experiencing population declines as a result...

Quantitative Metatranscriptomics and Biogeochemical Rate Measurements Reveal Microbial Pathways Driving Carbon and Nitrogen Cycles in an Arctic Lagoon

Creator:: Griffin, Natasha A.
Abstract:: Microbial communities in Arctic coastal lagoons drive biogeochemical cycles at the terrestrial-marine interface and help to determine the fate and form of resources like nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) as they are delivered to the Arctic Ocean. Though rising rates of primary production in the Arctic Ocean are well-characterized, the...

The InclusiveMag Method: A Start Towards More Inclusive Software for Diverse Populations

Creator:: Mendez, Christopher
Abstract:: How can software practitioners assess whether their software supports diverse users? Although there are empirical processes that can be used to find “inclusivity bugs” piecemeal, what is often needed is a systematic inspection method to assess software’s support for diverse populations. To help fill this gap, this thesis introduces InclusiveMag,...

Host selection and wood channelization by beetles in conifer logs in western Oregon

Creator:: Zhong, He
Abstract:: The host preferences and wood channelization rates of scolytid and cerambycid beetles were studied at the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest (Lane County, Oregon) during 1986 and 1987. Attack density and gallery volumes were measured in fall-felled experimental logs of four major conifer species: Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga mensiesii (Mirb.) Franco), western...

Maternity dress designs with selected expandable features

Creator:: Furer, Barbara Steinfeld
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to develop some comfortable, expandable maternity garments which were suitable for both home and street wear. These designs were intended to follow the art principles of good design, namely: balance, rhythm, proportion, scale, and emphasis. The first phase in the exploration of maternity designs...

Cost differentials of owning versus renting shelter during the retirement stage of the life cycle

Creator:: Ebert, Roberta Vale
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare differentials in housing costs between renting and owning. The data were obtained from a sample of 60 household heads who were listed as retired in the city directories. They met the following criteria: lived independently in the community, were 65 years of...

SocioEconomicMag Meets a Platform for SES-Diverse College Students: A Case Study

Creator:: Agarwal, Puja
Abstract:: Emerging research shows that individual differences in how people use technology sometimes cluster by socioeconomic status (SES) and that when technology is not socioeconomically inclusive, low-SES individuals may abandon it. To understand how to improve technology’s SES-inclusivity, we present a multi-phase case study on SocioEconomicMag (SESMag), an emerging inspection method...
