Integrating functional trait frameworks into restoration : the role of seed and seedling traits in recruitment success

Creator:: Larson, Julie E.
Abstract:: Seeding is a vital tool to facilitate recovery of degraded ecosystems, but low seedling recruitment rates limit the utility of this practice in a range of ecosystems across the globe. Plant functional traits impact individual fitness through effects on growth, reproduction and survival. Consequently, seed and seedling trait variation among...

A kinetic model for dissolved gas transport in the presence of trapped gas

Creator:: Donaldson, Jeremy H.
Abstract:: Understanding the processes involved in the transport of dissolved gas plumes in groundwater aquifers is essential for comprehending the effect that these transport processes can have on site characterization and remedial design applications. Previous laboratory and field studies have indicated that dissolved gas transport in groundwater can be greatly affected...

Survival and behavior of juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in two small estuaries in Oregon

Creator:: Romer, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: A number of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations are at risk throughout Oregon, including five populations that are federally listed as threatened or endangered. However, little is known about behavior and survival of these fish as they transition from freshwater to seawater. We investigated whether estuarine survival varies on a temporal...

Hydrogeologic field investigation and groundwater flow model of the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Craner, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: Elevated groundwater nitrate (NO3 -) concentrations in the Southern Willamette Valley (SWV) caused the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) to declare a Groundwater Management Area (GWMA) in Spring, 2004. To better understand direction of groundwater flow, groundwater age, and nitrate transport pathways of the SWV we developed a steady-state...

Winterfat seed viability and dormant season livestock grazing

Creator:: Leary, Ryan
Abstract:: Krascheninnikovia lanata (winterfat) is a valuable forage species with an average of 10% crude protein during winter when there are few nutritious options for livestock and wildlife. However, excessive grazing throughout the west has negatively impacted survival of winterfat stands. We hypothesized that four years rest from dormant season livestock...

Investigation of film forming properties of beta-chitosan from jumbo squid pens (Dosidicus gigas) and improvement of water solubility of beta-chitosan, Investigation of film forming properties of β-chitosan from jumbo squid pens (Dosidicus gigas) and improvement of water solubility of β-chitosan

Creator:: Chen, Jeremy L.
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to investigate the critical factors impacting the physicochemical and antibacterial properties of β-chitosan based films derived from jumbo squid (Dosidicus gigas) pens, and to evaluate the feasibility of improving water solubility of β-chitosan through Maillard reaction. The studies examined the effect of molecular weight...

Introgression between jointed goatgrass (Aegilops cylindrica) and wheat (Triticum aestivum)

Creator:: Snyder, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: Hybrids between wheat and jointed goatgrass have long been presumed to be sterile; however, seed were found on hybrid plants in 1990. Field studies were conducted in 1995 and repeated in 1996. One to ten hybrid plants were planted in variable populations of wheat and jointed goatgrass to determine the...

Discriminating between landslide sites and potentially unstable terrain using topographic indices

Creator:: Appt, Jeremy
Abstract:: A landslide inventory, statistical analyses and a Geographic Information System (GIS) are used to analyze landslide sites and potentially unstable terrain in the Oregon Coast Range. The objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of locating landslide sites with topographic variables and discriminate the difference between sites where landslides have and...

Energy recovery from biodiesel waste : performance of microbial electrochemical systems on glycerol

Creator:: Chignell, Jeremy
Abstract:: Pure glycerol and the crude waste glycerin byproduct of biodiesel production were tested as substrates for electricity production in single-chamber, air-cathode microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and in single-chamber microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), using pure and mixed microbial cultures as anode biocatalyst. Current densities of 0.40 A/m² and 0.13 A/m² were...

Relationships between thermal and electrical conductivities of ocean sediments and consolidated rocks

Creator:: Hutt, Jeremy Reinboth
Abstract:: From measurements of thermal and electrical conductivities of 64 ocean sediment samples obtained from piston cores taken off the Oregon Coast, and from 37 water-saturated sandstone samples analyzed by Zierfuss and Van der Vliet (1956), as well as 51 thermal conductivities and water contents of ocean sediments analyzed by Ratcliffe...
