Yield component and growth analysis of strawberries

Creator:: Olsen, Jeff L.
Abstract:: Two studies were initiated in June of 1981 in order to gain greater understanding of the growth and fruiting habits of field grown strawberries in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Yield component analysis of 'Benton', Oregon's leading cultivar and an advanced breeding selection, 'OR-US 4356' was conducted during the first (1981) and...

Work load and S-T segment changes during monitored bicycle ergometer exertion following varied carbohydrate feedings and vitamin B-6 supplementation

Creator:: Siemann, Art W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to monitor coronary responses occurring in the S-T segment of an electrocardiogram before, during and after exercise following a "standard" carbohydrate-loading schedule with varied vitamin B-6 supplementation. The study was conducted using four college-aged males who had been training a minimum of two years...

Wild Waters : Perspectives on Oregon’s Marine Reserves as Marine Wilderness Areas

Creator:: Johnston, Jennifer R.
Abstract:: Designation of areas as marine wilderness has been proposed as a strategy for managing the increasing threats facing the world’s oceans. Although social factors influence marine protected area success, the human dimensions of marine wilderness remain minimally explored. This thesis examines views of marine wilderness expressed by a representative sample...

Use of Landscape Characteristics to Quantify Hybridization Risk Between Native and Introduced Salmonids

Creator:: Manning, Michael A.
Abstract:: The introduction of non-native species can negatively impact native species through reduced genetic fitness resulting from hybridization. The lack of spatiotemporal data of hybrids occurrences makes assessing hybridization risk difficult. Here, I developed a spatially-explicit GIS Hybridization Risk Model (HRM) between native ESA-listed Bull Trout and introduced Brook Trout by...

Urinary estrogens and progestins in pregnant pony mares

Creator:: Riad, Mohamed Tarek
Abstract:: Urinary steroids have been studied during early and late pregnancy in domestic horses or sporadic samples at various stages of pregnancy in wild equidae. In our studies, urinary estrone sulfate (E1S) and pregnanediol glucuronide (PdG) were monitored throughout pregnancy in six pony mares by enzyme immunoassay (EIA). Both hormones were...

Ungulate activity classification : calibrating activity monitor GPS collars for Rocky Mountain elk, mule deer, and cattle

Creator:: Gaylord, Adam J.
Abstract:: Ungulate behavior has been studied extensively but direct observation of free-ranging animals over long periods of time and large geographic areas is often prohibitively difficult. Improved technology, such as GPS collars fitted with motion-sensitive activity monitors, provides researchers with a potential tool to remotely collect fine scale activity and location...

Transpiration and the atmospheric boundary layer : progress in modeling feedback mechanisms

Creator:: Heinsch, Faith Ann
Abstract:: Simple models of transpiration, e.g., the Penman-Monteith equation, treat atmospheric conditions as driving variables. In fact, transpiration modifies temperature and humidity throughout the convective boundary layer, creating feedbacks that stabilize the water use of vegetation. This thesis concentrates on the new empirical relationships proposed by Monteith (1995), for developing simple...

Towards the Perfect Marriage Between Theory and Experiments in Drug Discovery and Synthesis : Insights into Structure Determination of Complex Natural Products and Mechanistic Understandings of Lactam Synthesis

Creator:: Snyder, Kevin M.
Abstract:: In this report, three studies are presented that aid in the development of drug discovery and their synthesis. In each, the importance of the marriage between computations and experiments is highlighted. Continued efforts in this vein are essential for future efforts towards improving human health. The first case study investigated...

Towards the Design and Evaluation of Effective Educational Virtual Reality Applications

Creator:: Rangarajan, Vaishnavi
Abstract:: With the rapid advancement of educational technology and the need for personalized, engaging content to accommodate diverse learning needs, Virtual Reality (VR) holds promises for the present and future. However, VR applications suffer from challenges, including usability concerns, lack of pedagogical value, and evaluation standards. This thesis focuses on two...
