Examining ectomycorrhizal communities of ponderosa pine and lodgepole pine in the south-central Oregon pumice zone

Creator:: Garcia, Maria Osuna
Abstract:: Background information is presented that provides historical perspectives on the field of mycology in the Pacific Northwest and its role in forest management. The series of events and decisions that have led to previous studies (or lack of studies) in the field also dictate the directions of current research. Culture,...

Utilizing cooperative fisheries research to monitor and understand harmful algal blooms along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Gilliland, Raquel C.
Abstract:: Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a problem for coastal communities, the fishing industry, and coastal organisms. Pseudo-nitzschia spp. is a regularly occurring diatom in Oregon’s coastal waters. At times, Pseudo-nitzschia spp. can facultatively produce domoic acid, a neurotoxin that can bioaccumulate in the food chain. While regular shore-based sampling provides...

Management Applications of Remotely Sensed Dynamic Seascapes: Two Case Studies

Creator:: Klajbor, Willem C.
Abstract:: Dynamic seascapes, which are classified using a combination of remotely sensed data and model output, represent a potential tool for dynamic ecosystem-based management in marine systems. This work explores the utility of seascape classification in the context of marine resource management by examining two case studies: one involving biological relationships...

Modeling the energetics of Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) along the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Malavear, Maria Yolanda Garcia
Abstract:: A dynamic bioenergetic model for Steller sea lions (Eumetopias jubatus) was built using the STELLA simulation modeling system. The model is intended as an aid for the exploration of ecological questions regarding growth and survival of immature Steller sea lions (ages 1-3) living along the Oregon coast under different nutritional...

Demand and profitability for albacore products : a multi-attribute analysis

Creator:: Garcia-Martinez, Salvador
Abstract:: The main purpose of this research is to provide the commercial seafood industry of the Pacific Northwest information on preferences of restaurateurs, retailers, and wholesalers for whole albacore, low-value added albacore products (chunks, medallions, and steaks), albacore loins, and high-value added albacore products (hot smoked and lox). All of these...

Management alternatives for the yellowfin tuna fishery in the Mexican Exclusive Economic Zone

Creator:: Garcia-Martinez, Salvador
Abstract:: Tuna fishery is an important activity worldwide. In the eastern Pacific Ocean the effort applied by the Pacific Ocean fleet to catch tuna fish is considerable. The eastern Pacific tuna fleet harvests throughout the oceans and captures an important fraction of this resource. For instance, in 1980 the total catch...

Metabolic Effects in C57B/6J Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet Supplemented With Walnuts, Raspberries and Other Whole Foods

Creator:: Miranda-Garcia, Omar
Abstract:: Health benefits obtained from consumption of fruits and vegetables have the potential to improve the lifestyle of individuals. The walnut is a polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich whole food that is readily available in the U.S and has been shown to potentially reduce risk of Metabolic Syndrome. Furthermore, consumption of polyphenol...

Creating Anthropomorphic Models with Mesh Phantoms in MCNP to Simulate Mammography

Creator:: Garcia, Jacqueline K.
Abstract:: Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women as it accounts for about 25% of all female cancer cases. Studies have shown that early detection of breast cancer increases the chances of a positive prognosis amongst patients therefore it is crucial to provide accurate diagnosis tools in routine exams....

Detection of Physical and Biological Fronts in the Northern California Current System and the Drivers Behind Their Seasonal to Interannual Variability

Creator:: Jamil, Aliya L.
Abstract:: Oceanic fronts mark the boundary between two water masses and are often sites of complex bio-physical processes and multi-trophic level interactions, making them particularly important features in marine ecosystems. As global climate change induces multi-scale shifts in the driving physical mechanisms of fronts, spatiotemporal tracking of frontal variability can aid...

Intraseasonal Oscillations of ~20 days Revisited: The Jet Stream and its Ecological Implications along the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Herweck, Kendra
Abstract:: Intraseasonal oscillations in the atmosphere-ocean system can affect weather patterns and regional ecosystems. In turn, these oscillations can be affected by climate variability, resulting in additive and/or non-linear responses of regional ecosystems to climate forcing. In the Northern California Current, a strong correlation was identified between the location of the...
