A comparison of early marine residence in hatchery and natural Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: Claiborne, Andrew M.
Abstract:: The mechanisms of mortality during critical life stages of fish are not well-understood and, for many species, it is not clear if the mechanisms are similar for naturally and artificially propagated individuals. For Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), natural fish potentially face negative interactions, such as competition, and survival disadvantages, such...

Re‐establishment of the native oyster, Ostrea conchaphila, in Netarts Bay, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Archer, Pamela Emily
Abstract:: Olympia oysters, “Ostrea conchaphila,” were once common along the west coast of North America. A popular delicacy, native oyster populations began to decline in the late 1800’s due to over‐harvest, degraded water quality, and habitat loss. Interest in re‐establishing the native oyster in a small Oregon estuary, Netarts Bay, culminated...

Trophically transmitted parasites as ecosystem indicators : relationships among parasite community structure, juvenile salmon diet composition, and ocean conditions

Creator:: Losee, James P.
Abstract:: Recent research conducted throughout the Northern California Current (NCC) on the ecology of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) indicates that variable ocean conditions affect the community composition of zooplankton in the nearshore environment which, in turn, can affect the quality of prey for fish, sea birds and mammals. Interannual variability in...

Graduate teaching assistant (GTA) development in the college classroom

Creator:: Meitl, Jennifer L.
Abstract:: The graduate student population has been traditionally overlooked within higher education. However, within recent decades, much research has been devoted to addressing the multiple facets of the graduate student experience, including that of the graduate teaching assistant (GTA) position. This thesis seeks to explore in depth the experiences of GTAs...

Mentoring student leaders of color

Creator:: White, Leann E.
Abstract:: Involvement in student leadership provides opportunities for student development (Foubert and Grainger, 2006) and is linked with higher rates of persistence (Astin, 1984), making leadership programs an important tool for increasing the retention and success of students of color. Unfortunately, traditional leadership paradigms often used in student leadership programs are...

College students' multiracial identity perceptions and experiences of programs and associations

Creator:: Plaza, Lauren S.
Abstract:: This thesis examined the identity transitions that occurred prior to enrollment at a predominantly, White, large, public research university and after completing at least one year of college for students who identify as multiracial. As a secondary purpose, this thesis also examined whether these students sought support through groups that...

A qualitative study of the determinants of resistance to homosexuality in heterosexual identified students

Creator:: McGraw, Cathlene E.
Abstract:: Two decades of literature from national college student climate reports measuring student attitudes toward people who are lesbians, gays, bisexuals, and transgender (LGBT) indicate, “anti-GLBT intolerance and harassment has been prevalent” (Rankin, 2003). This study seeks to explore the determinants of such attitudes and explore the life contexts of students’...

Year-class regulation of mid-upper Columbia River spring Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha : the role of juvenile size, growth, and migratory behavior

Creator:: Tomaro, Londi M.
Abstract:: Early ocean residence is assumed to be a critical period for juvenile Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. However, the specific mechanisms influencing growth and survival in the ocean have not been identified for most populations. Therefore, three hypotheses regarding the relationship between early marine residence and subsequent survival of mid-upper Columbia...

Critical incident response on a small college campus

Creator:: Marlette, Danielle M.
Abstract:: Campus administrators are partially responsible for how a campus responds to a critical incident and how the students and outside community are impacted. It is important for administrators responding to critical incidents to take an objective look at their plans and preparations to determine if they will truly be effective...

Spatiotemporal Drivers of Seabird Distribution at the Pacific Marine Energy Center off Newport, Oregon

Creator:: Porquez, Jessica M.
Abstract:: The central Oregon coast was selected as an ideal site for wave energy development and establishment of the Pacific Marine Energy Center (PMEC). PMEC will consist of two nearshore sites, one north (NETS) and one south (SETS) of the Yaquina River, Oregon. Our study aims to assess how the development...
