Large Downed Wood as Post-fire Refugia for Terrestrial Salamanders in Pacific Northwest Forests

Creator:: Stephens, Paige N.
Abstract:: Climate change, wildfire, timber harvest, and land conversion alter the availability of downed wood in forests of the western United States. Numerous taxa rely on downed wood for temperature and humidity refugia, and downed wood may play a key role in enabling the persistence of climate-sensitive, low-vagility species like terrestrial...

Batch and Continuous Flow Column Studies of Methane Consumption and Methanol Production by Methylosinus Trichosporium OB3b and Methylomicrobium Buryatense 5GB1 Immobilized In Ca-Alginate and Agarose Hydrogels

Creator:: Molzahn, Paige
Abstract:: Two methanotrophs, M. trichosporium OB3b and M. buryatense 5GB1, were encapsulated using two methods to investigate the potential of methane conversion for biofuel production. Ca-alginate and low melt agarose were used to immobilize the methanotrophs for batch and continuous flow column testing. Varying protein concentrations, residence times, and immobilization methods...

Investments in people and technology : public participation in the remediation of Dian Lake in Yunnan, China

Creator:: Carson, Andrea L.
Abstract:: From the 1960s to 1990s, the water quality of Dian Lake (滇池), China's sixth largest freshwater lake located outside the capital of Yunnan Province, Kunming City, rapidly declined causing livelihood disruption, decreased water availability, and biodiversity loss. Despite significant investments in remediation efforts, only small water quality improvements have been...

Ethylene production from cultures of Cylindrocladium and from Cylindrocladium-infected azalea leaves

Creator:: Axelrood, Paige Ellen
Abstract:: Ethylene was produced by Cylindrocladium floridanum and C. scoparium in culture. Production was methionine dependent and maximal during the active growth phase of the fungus, beginning shortly after spore germination. More ethylene was produced sooner by C. floridanum than C. scoparium. Ethylene was produced by Cylindrocladium both from active mycelium...

Exploring the Relationship Between 𝛿13Ccarb Signal Preservation and Algorithmic Chemostratigraphic Alignment Accuracy

Creator:: Reynolds, Paige J.
Abstract:: Changes in the stable carbon isotope composition of carbonate rocks (𝛿13Ccarb) are used to establish the relative temporal framework for geological events, such as evolutionary extinction or radiation, between two or more locations. As every local stratigraphic record is intermittent, aligning 𝛿13Ccarb records from two or more locations, a process...

Mental and biophysical terrains of biodiversity : conservation of oak woodland on family forest

Creator:: Fischer, Alexandra Paige
Abstract:: This research analyzes how family forest owners conceptualize biodiversity in one high-conservation value area of oak woodland in the Willamette Valley of Western Oregon. Oregon white oak (Quercus garyanna) woodland, one of the most biologically diverse ecotypes in the state of Oregon, is in decline. Much of the oak ecotype...

Soot Modeling: GPU Accelerated Direct Simulation Monte Carlo

Creator:: Lorson, Paige
Abstract:: For this project, we designed a soot modeling software to produce a full particle density function. This model uses the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo with a full conditioning particle selection method to capture soot nucleation and coagulation in a diffusion flame. We investigate the use of graphic processing units as...

Multi-scale Investigation of Adhesive Bond Durability

Creator:: McKinley, Paige Elizabeth
Abstract:: Moisture durability is essential for wood composites, especially those used in building construction, where products are prone to weathering. The primary focus of this research was to determine if adhesive penetration into the cell wall has a positive influence on adhesive bond durability. To fully understand the measureable effects of...

Effects of Elevated Temperature on Mycobacterium chelonae Growth and Mycobacteriosis in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Lopez, Elizanette V.
Abstract:: Utilization of zebrafish, Danio rerio, has steadily increased and its applications have expanded into numerous fields of science. Applying elevated temperatures (32°C to 37°C) to this organism has allowed researchers to conduct climate change, human cancer and infectious disease studies. Though zebrafish can be acclimated from the standard 28°C to...
