Constraints to urban park visitation : Conceptual connections and spatial attributes for traditionally well-served and underserved residents

Creator:: Rushing, Jaclyn R.
Abstract:: Connecting with nature is associated with social, physical, and emotional benefits such as stress relief, improved physical health, and lower crime. Parks and other natural areas offer spaces in which to connect with nature and reap these and other benefits (e.g., family bonding, social events, learning). Despite increasing populations of...

Design and simulation of a self-powered neutron spectrometer

Creator:: Kropp, Edward K.
Abstract:: A self-powered neutron detector (SPND) is a device that, coupled with a current meter, provides a readout proportional to neutron population. This thesis discusses the design parameters of an array of such devices, their characteristics, and the use of these devices as a self-powered neutron spectrometer (SPNS) to provide information...

Distribution and life history of the spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) off the Oregon and Washington coasts

Creator:: Richards, Jaclyn M.
Abstract:: This study examines the spatial and temporal distribution and life history of the "offshore" component of the Northeastern Pacific spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) population. Distribution was examined in relation to latitude, depth, the Columbia River plume and large-scale climate changes. Fishery and survey data indicate that the Northeastern Pacific spiny...

(In)visible women: Representation and Conceptualization of Gender in Water Governance and Management

Creator:: Best, Jaclyn P.
Abstract:: Although there is a substantial body of work on the inclusion of women in traditionally male-dominated processes of water management and water governance (Earle & Bazilli, 2013), these efforts have mostly been concentrated in the Global South and women are still lacking in positions with decision-making power, making water governance...

MAN 'aging Water Resources of the Deschutes River Basin

Creator:: Taganova, Jahan
Abstract:: In the last two decades, there has been an increase in substantial body of work on the inclusion of women in the water management and governance field. However, these scholarly inquiries have mostly focused on cases from the Global South, where women are still underrepresented in decision-making positions in the...

The effects of urea supplementation on feather meal and hair meal utilization by ruminants

Creator:: Daugherty, Dennis A.
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: Dr. D. C. Church The objectives of this study were to further evaluate feather meal (FM) and hair

Effects of wood species and prior fungal exposure on the feeding habits of the dampwood termite Zootermopsis angusticollis

Creator:: Mankowski, Mark Edward
Abstract:: The effects of natural preconditioning (source wood), wood species, and previous exposure of wood to two types of fungi on the feeding rates and protozoa survival in the Pacific dampwood termite Zootermopsis angusticollis (Isoptera: Termospidae) were examined under laboratory conditions. Termites were exposed to four wood species that had been...

Stable activable tracers for environmentally significant organic molecules

Creator:: Ghannam, Lina M.
Abstract:: The need for field and laboratory studies of the physical and chemical behavior of environmentally significant organic molecules often poses problems because of the toxicity of the chemical and the difficulty of detecting it at environmentally significant concentrations. Two dysprosium tracers, dysprosium (III) trisacetylacetonate trihydrate and dysprosium(III) trisdibenzoylmethane monohydrate, were...

Controlling the Co-Precipitation of Colloidal PbSe Quantum Dots and Their Device Performance in a Diode Architecture

Creator:: McCrea, Tyler D.
Abstract:: In this work, colloidal PbSe quantum dots (QDs) are shown to be synthesized in a controlled manner by changing the growth time and reaction temperature in a microwave synthesis method. It is explained why quantum dots make such a unique material to create electronic devices and the specific benefits that...

The development and decline dynamics of two ectomycorrhizal fungal mat soil microbial communities in response to a reciprocal soil transfer experiment in old-growth Douglas-fir forests

Creator:: Cappellazzi, Jed E.
Abstract:: Ectomycorrhizal fungi (EmF) form symbioses with trees. These symbioses profoundly influence forest ecology. Certain EmF form specialized profusions of hyphae, known as ectomycorrhizal fungal mats (mats) which are visible to the naked eye, alter forest soil biogeochemistry, substantially contribute to soil microbial biomass/respiration and support unique microbial communities. Piloderma and...
