  • Quantitative determination of emerging contaminants, solvent stabilizers and fullerene nanomaterials, in biological and environmental systems

    Creator:
    Isaacson, Carl W.
    Abstract:
    To determine the impact of emerging environmental contaminants on human and environmental health, quantitative analytical methods are required. Analysis of emerging contaminants is hampered by their widely varying physical-chemical properties. Therefore quantitative analytical methods must be developed to determine the behavior of emerging contaminants in environmental systems. A quantitative analytical...

  • Determination of fluorochemicals in waste-dominated aqueous systems

    Creator:
    Huset, Carin A.
    Abstract:
    While fluorochemicals have been detected all over the world and in wastewater treatment plants, the effect of wastewater effluent on the receiving waters has not been evaluated. In the first study, the mass flow of fluorochemicals emanating from wastewater treatment plants along the Glatt River in Switzerland was evaluated. The...

  • Semi-volatile fluorinated organic compounds in Asian and Pacific Northwestern U.S. air masses

    Creator:
    Piekarz, Arkadiusz M.
    Abstract:
    Current studies suggest that perfluorinated organic compounds, such as fluorotelomer alcohols (FtOHs) in the troposphere, may be precursors of perfluorocarboxylic acids and perfluorosulfonates in remote regions. Fluorinated organic compounds were investigated in archived extracts collected from remote locations in Okinawa, Japan (HSO) and Mount Bachelor, Oregon (MBO) during the springs...

  • Development and application of a resource selection model for pygmy rabbits

    Creator:
    Meisel, Jennifer K.
    Abstract:
    Pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) in Oregon and Washington are a sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata spp.) obligate species of concern because of declining populations and extirpation from much of their range. Efforts are underway to establish a captive bred population of the Columbia Basin pygmy rabbit in Washington state for reintroduction into...

  • An examination of kin and nonkin foster parents’ experiences

    Creator:
    De Costa, Jennifer L. (Jennifer Loretta)
    Abstract:
    The growth of foster care, particularly kin foster care has greatly outpaced our knowledge. The purpose of this exploratory qualitative study was to develop a more informed understanding of foster family functioning from the perspective of foster parents. This study examined the experiences of 9 kin and 12 nonkin foster...

  • Survival and persistence of Bacteroidales human and ruminant specific fecal markers and occurrence with fecal pathogens

    Creator:
    Walters, Sarah P.
    Abstract:
    Aquatic fecal contamination from non-point sources impairs environmental health and serves as a vehicle for transmission of waterborne disease, resulting in economic losses worldwide. Accurate methods of diagnosing fecal pollution and its source are needed to prevent human exposure, remediate pollution, and reduce economic impacts. In order to obtain this...

  • Shake, rattle, and roll : awaking the visiting public's curiosity of geology via interpretation at Redwood National State Parks

    Creator:
    Natoli, Jennifer A.
    Abstract:
    By researching aspects of the geology of Redwood National and State Parks (RNSP) and serving for two summers as a seasonal interpretive ranger, I have developed a training manual designed for fellow rangers. The descriptive nature of the manual, combined with its vivid illustrations, is designed to enable rangers of...

  • Development, validation and the application of a congener specific photodegradation model for PBDEs

    Creator:
    Zeng, Xia
    Abstract:
    The thermodynamic properties of 39 PBDEs have been calculated using Gaussian 03 on the B3LYP/6-31G(d)//B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The PBDE congeners' enthalpies of formation increase with increasing number of bromines and show a strong dependence on the bromine substitution pattern. The effects of bromine substitution pattern have been quantitatively studied by GAM...

  • Susceptibility of coast redwood seedlings to Phytophthora ramorum

    Creator:
    Lucas, Sunny L.
    Abstract:
    Coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) (D. Don) Endl. is a host for Phytophthora ramorum but it was unclear if the pathogen represents a significant disease risk to this tree species. In this study the susceptibility of coast redwood seedlings and the likelihood of sporulation on redwood were examined. Two methods were...
