Communicating the wildland fire message : an investigation of agency outreach strategies

Creator:: Toman, Eric Lee
Abstract:: Wildfire impacts have increased in recent years. The management response outlined by recent policy initiatives (e.g., the National Fire Plan, Healthy Forests Restoration Act) emphasizes the use of prescribed fire and mechanized thinning to reduce the risk of future fire events. These policies also call for an unprecedented level of...

Stability of reporter gene expression and RNAi in transgenic poplars over multiple years in the field under vegetative propagation

Creator:: Li, Jingyi
Abstract:: Stable expression of transgenes is required for commercial uses of genetically engineered trees. To better understand the stability of transgene expression under field conditions, we studied transgene expression and RNA interference (RNAi)-induced transgene suppression in 2,480 transgenic poplars (460 transgene insertion events) over three years. Stability of expression was assessed...

Micropropagation of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) in a double-phase culture medium

Creator:: Gross, Leah M.
Abstract:: The timber and Christmas tree industries are important components of the Pacific Northwest economy. A goal of both industries is to produce high quality trees with high growth rates. Accomplishing this requires increased genetic quality of the trees grown. Tissue culture provides the most promise for propagating these superior genotypes....

Defining habitat preferences of pelagic loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) in the North Atlantic through analysis of behavior and bycatch

Creator:: McCarthy, Abigail L.
Abstract:: For many species of marine turtle the characteristics that define pelagic habitat have yet to be fully identified. A better understanding of these habitat characteristics is critical to reduce high seas fisheries interactions with turtles, especially as the status of many turtle populations has placed them on the threatened or...

Hydrology and geomorphic evolution of basaltic landscapes, High Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Jefferson, Anne (Anne Jarvis)
Abstract:: The basaltic landscapes of the Oregon High Cascades form a natural laboratory for examining how geologic setting and history influence groundwater flowpaths, streamflow sensitivity to climate, and landscape evolution. In the High Cascades, highly permeable young basaltic lavas form extensive aquifers. These aquifers are the dominant sources of summer streamflow...

Patterns and processes of sediment transport following sediment-filled dam removal in gravel bed rivers

Creator:: Stewart, Gregory B.
Abstract:: Dam removal is increasingly viewed as a river restoration tool because dams affect so many aspects of river hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology; but removal also has impacts. When a dam is removed, sediment accumulated over a dam’s lifetime may be transported downstream; and the timing, fate and consequences of this...

The marine geomorphology of American Samoa : shapes and distributions of deep sea volcanics

Creator:: Roberts, Jed T.
Abstract:: The geologic processes at work in American Samoa have long been a point of scientific debate. Of its numerous volcanic formations, few breach sea level, leaving an enormous proportion of their mass unavailable to traditional observation. This study aims to describe the deep sea geomorphology of American Samoa through compilation,...

A preliminary assessment of hydrogeologic suitability for Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) in Oregon

Creator:: Woody, Jen
Abstract:: An ASR metric and site rating index applied to over 120 municipal and agricultural locations across Oregon, combined with comparison to case study data from existing ASR sites, indicate that more than 50% of selected sites are hydrogeologically suitable for ASR. The ASR metric is a ratio of aquifer storage...

The Yakima Indians : study and analysis of the Yakima water rights

Creator:: Selam, Leroy Bennie
Abstract:: This thesis is an ethnohistoric study of the water rights of the Yakima Confederated Tribes. The study considers the water rights issues of the Yakimas from the cultural viewpoint at the time of European contact to the present legal and political situation. It traces the many obstacles the Yakimas have...

Consumer perceptions of apparel products in Internet shopping

Creator:: Kim, Mi-Jung
Abstract:: The purpose of the present study was to determine consumer perceptions of apparel products in Internet shopping. According to the existing literature, four categories of perceptions play primary roles for apparel shopping consumer decisions: apparel appearance, apparel comfort, fabric characteristics, and apparel fit. The present study aimed to observe how...
