Modeling and dating glacier fluctuations and their relation to Pacific Ocean climate

Creator:: Anslow, Faron S.
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results of an investigation into the interactions between the present-day South Cascade Glacier and the former Mauna Kea ice cap at short (annual to centennial) and long (millennial and multimillennial) time scales. To quantify the response of South Cascade Glacier to atmospheric conditions, a surface energy...

Spatial patterns of fuel management activities and their effects on wildfire behavior

Creator:: Kim, Young-Hwan
Abstract:: Fuel management has been used as an effective local strategy to reduce the undesirable consequences of wildfires. Many efforts toward scheduling of fuel management activities across a broader landscape have been proposed, with the hope of achieving larger landscape-scale management effects. However, scheduling of fuel management treatments across the broader...

West Coast linearity run to determine calibration factor of Lacoste-Romberg gravity meter S-9

Creator:: Dehlinger, Peter and Chiburis, E. F.
Abstract:: The calibration factor of LaCoste-Romberg , surface-ship gravity meter 5-9 was checked against a 1200 mgal range of land base stations along the West Coast of the United States. Previous checks at other base stations provided conflicting results as to the accuracy of this meter's calibration factor supplied by the...

Biotic barriers to colonizing new hosts by the cinnabar moth Tyria jacobaeae (L.)(Lepidoptera: Arctiidae)

Creator:: Karacetin, Evrim
Abstract:: The cinnabar moth (Tyria jacobaeae (L.), Lepidoptera: Arctiidae) is an icon in population ecology and biological control that has recently lost its shine based on evidence that (1) it is less effective than alternatives (such as the ragwort flea beetle Longitarsus jacobaeae (Waterhouse) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) for controlling ragwort Senecio jacobaea...

Soil carbon and nitrogen in old-growth forests in western Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Remillard, Suzanne Marie
Abstract:: Soil organic carbon (SOC, kg C m-2) is an important component in evaluating global C stores. The nitrogen (TN, kg N m"2) cycle is closely linked to C and understanding its role is also important. Contents and distributions of SOC and TN in soil profiles, to 1-meter depth, were estimated...

Age-specific and lifetime reproductive success of known age Northern Spotted Owls on four study areas in Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Loschl, Peter J.
Abstract:: Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) are a long-lived forest owl and range-wide declines in their numbers have resulted in the species being listed as threatened under the endangered species act. While many studies have been focused on population trends and reproductive performance of Spotted Owls from different age-classes, none...

Fighting tradition : Hemingway’s Nick Adams and shell shock

Creator:: McGrath, Cole P.
Abstract:: In his Nick Adams stories, Ernest Hemingway traces the life of a single man as he moves from boyhood to adolescence to adulthood to fatherhood. From the beginning of Nick Adams life, it is clear that he does not fit into the role of the traditional hero. In addition, Nick...

An investigation of carbon and nitrogen metabolism through a genomic analysis of the genus Nitrobacter

Creator:: Starkenburg, Shawn R.
Abstract:: The chemolithoautotrophic nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) participate in the biogeochemical cycling of nitrogen by catalyzing and conserving energy from the oxidation of nitrite (NO₂-) to nitrate (NO₃-) via a nitrite oxidoreductase (NXR). The main objective of this work was to comparatively annotate and analyze the genome sequences of Nitrobacter winogradskyi...

Control of alkane monooxygenase activity and expression in Pseudomonas butanovora

Creator:: Doughty, David M.
Abstract:: The regulation of monooxygenase enzymes has been demonstrated in bacteria that grow on methane and long chain-length alkanes (>C10). Less is known about monooxygenase regulation in short chain alkane oxidizing bacteria that grow on intermediate chain-length alkanes C2-C10. This dissertation focuses on the regulation of butane monooxygenase (BMO) expression and...
