Validation of elk distribution models at Sled Springs Wildlife Demonstration Area, northeast Oregon

Creator:: Coe, Priscilla K.
Abstract:: Landscape models for elk distribution developed at Starkey Experimental Forest and Range from 1993-1995 were tested on another landscape during 2003-2005 at Sled Springs Wildlife Demonstration Area. Using location data obtained from 23 wild elk captured and fitted with GPS telemetry collars, 8 spatial resource selection function models representing 8...

The influence of contemporary forest harvesting on summer stream temperatures in headwater streams of Hinkle Creek, Oregon

Creator:: Kibler, Kelly Maren
Abstract:: Stream temperature is a water quality parameter that directly influences the quality of aquatic habitat, particularly for cold-water species such as Pacific salmonids. Forest harvesting adjacent to a stream can increase the amount of solar radiation the stream receives, which can elevate stream temperatures and impair aquatic habitat. Oregon Forest...

A physical and chemical characterization of stream water draining three Oregon Coast Range catchments

Creator:: Hale, V. Cody
Abstract:: Few studies have examined both long-term and fine-scale spatial variations in water quality of small streams in the Pacific Northwest. As such, a case study was conducted to determine if current physical and chemical properties of water in three streams located in the Oregon Coast Range differed from historically measured...

Linkages among land use, riparian zones, and uptake and transformation of nitrate in stream ecosystems

Creator:: Sobota, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Land use alters the physical and biological structure of stream ecosystems and potentially alters their capacity to process nitrogen (N), an essential nutrient that has nearly doubled in abundance on the biosphere during the past century from human activities. In this dissertation, I quantified uptake and transformation of nitrate (NO₃⁻)...

Regeneration and growth of several canopy tree species in the Maya Forest of Quintana Roo, Mexico : the role of competition and microhabitat conditions

Creator:: Sorensen, NaDene S.
Abstract:: We evaluated the regeneration behavior and early growth rates of 10 non-pioneer canopy tree species in medium-height, semi-evergreen dry tropical forest in Quintana Roo, Mexico. These species provide timber and non-timber forest products for local communities and include evergreen and deciduous species with varied dispersal mechanisms. The species were Coccoloba...

A study of the frequency of utilization of the Oregon State University health services in relation to selected characteristics of students

Creator:: Stanaway, Timothy John
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to identify some of the factors associated with student usage of the Student Health Services (SHS) and of the Infirmary at Oregon State University. The population for the study was the freshman class entering Oregon State University in September, 1968. The original enrollment of...

Making the connection to K-12 education for noncollege-bound students : the voices of students and workers address school experiences and workforce preparation

Creator:: Campbell, Willa M.
Abstract:: This study examined the relationships between business, education, and the economy, and specifically addressed the significant impact that business has had on education and educational policy. A large amount of research exists on the history of school reform and the development of educational policy, but none of the research examined...

A distributed local computer network : FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat NETwork)

Creator:: Kang, Yong Joong
Abstract:: FISHNET (Facilities Integrated in a Shared Habitat) is a communication subnet architecture utilizing a hybrid application of point-topoint and broadcast communications to achieve a high degree of network performance. This objective is achieved through utilizing a dual bus structure: a data bus and a control bus. The data bus consists...

The ability of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation to minimize toxic effects of high-alkaloid tall fescue straw in beef cattle

Creator:: Merrill, Melissa L.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the influence of a yeast-derived cell wall preparation (YCW) on forage intake and digestibility, ruminal fermentation characteristics, serum prolactin and prolactin stores, and milk production in beef cattle consuming high-alkaloid tall fescue straw. In Exp. 1, 16 Angus x Hereford ruminally cannulated steers (200...
