Genetic Connectivity of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current System and Puget Sound

Creator:: Jackson, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Understanding connectivity among exploited populations is critical to their sustainable management and long-term viability. In the marine environment, estimates of connectivity often rely on the use of genetic markers, as dispersal primarily occurs during a planktonic larval phase which is difficult to track using direct methods. In this thesis, we...

Big Fishery, Big Data, and Little Crabs: Using a Genomic Approach to Examine Larval Recruitment Patterns of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current Ecosystem

Creator:: Lee, Elizabeth M. J.
Abstract:: The California Current Ecosystem (CCE) is a dynamic marine ecosystem from which many socioeconomically important fisheries species are harvested. In this thesis, a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach was used to examine genomic variation in an early life stage of the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister), which constitutes the most valuable single-species commercial...

Characterizing Fine-Scale Neutral and Adaptive Genetic Diversity of Oncorhynchus mykiss in the Klamath Basin Before Dam Removal

Creator:: Piotrowski, Stanley J.
Abstract:: An inextricable link exists between dams and human development in the Pacific Northwest, but they can fragment rivers and reduce genetic connectivity for freshwater and anadromous fishes. Since the early-twentieth century, a series of hydropower and irrigation dams on the mainstem Klamath River, California, has fragmented migratory corridors and eliminated...

Mate choice of wild spawning coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in the Umpqua River, Oregon

Creator:: Whitcomb, Amelia C.
Abstract:: Evidence for reduced reproductive success (RS) of wild spawning hatchery-reared fish invites serious consideration with regard to the detrimental effects on subsequent generations of wild populations. Mate choice was evaluated as a potential mechanism contributing to these observed RS differences using a previous pedigree of wild spawning hatchery-reared and wild...

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...

The influence of local fidelity and recruitment on population dynamics and specialized foraging of humpback whales in Glacier Bay and Icy Strait, Alaska

Creator:: Pierszalowski, Sophie Penny
Abstract:: Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae, Borowski 1781) in the North Pacific migrate from mid- to high- latitude summer feeding grounds along the Pacific Rim, including areas off the coasts of the U.S., Canada, Russia and eastern Asia, to tropical breeding grounds each winter along Pacific coasts of Mexico and Central America...

The role of attention in one-handed catching

Creator:: Populin, Luis
Abstract:: The present study investigated the contribution of attention to one-handed catching success. A group of skilled (N = 8) and non-skilled (N = 10) subjects were compared in their ability to process secondary task information while executing a primary one-handed catching task. On 40% of the trials, a secondary visual...

Calcium carbonate scaling in a deluged dry cooling system

Creator:: Barton, Kathleen Patricia
Abstract:: Scaling characteristics of calcium carbonate on a heated surface in a deluged dry cooling system were investigated. Bulk temperature of the deluge water was maintained constant at 90°F. Air flow velocity was maintained constant at 181 cfm., and deluge water flow was maintained at the minimum level that provided thorough...

Stress, Social Support, and Life Satisfaction Among Adults with Rare Diseases

Creator:: Bryson, Brooke A.
Abstract:: In the US, a disease is classified as rare if it affects less than 200,000 individuals a year. Despite considerable similarities, individuals with rare diseases (RDs) report worse life quality and satisfaction with life (SWL) than those with common chronic conditions. One potential avenue to increase SWL is through improving...

Gender differences and level of aspiration as factors in tennis skill performance of college students

Creator:: Keowmookdar, Nattaya
Abstract:: Level of aspiration plays a part in achievement motivation which supports teaching/learning in motor performances. In the past, females reported poorer ability in performances, set lower levels of aspiration, and had lesser achievement motives than males (Crandall, 1969; Stein & Bailey, 1973; Sumner & Johnson, 1949). Some researchers found there...
