  • When Celilo was Celilo : an analysis of salmon use during the past 11,000 years in the Columbia Plateau

    Creator:
    Thomison, Patrick
    Abstract:
    The presence and significance of salmon for prehistoric and aboriginal people of the Columbia Plateau is a matter of considerable debate among anthropologists, archaeologists and historians. Data from over 100 archaeological sites are scrutinized in the light of an example salmon fishery developed from ethnographic and archaeological information on aboriginal...

  • Ectopic overexpression of Arabidopsis CBF genes enhances freezing tolerance of two potato species

    Creator:
    Pino, María-Teresa
    Abstract:
    Solanum species differ in their degree of frost tolerance and cold acclimation capacity. Cultivated potato species of Solanum tuberosum L. are frost-sensitive, incapable of cold acclimation, and have a maximum freezing tolerance of –3°C. Solanum commersonii Dun is frost-tolerant and can survive to –5ºC pre-acclimation and –10ºC post-acclimation. Breeding attempts...

  • Terrestrial amphibian distribution, habitat associations and downed wood temperature profiles in managed headwater forests with riparian buffers in the Oregon Coast Range

    Creator:
    Kluber, Matthew R.
    Abstract:
    Western forests have become increasingly fragmented landscapes dominated by young stands. Given that western Oregon forests largely consist of headwater systems, there is a need to better understand how headwater forest taxa and their habitats are impacted by forest management practices. Several amphibian species associated with forested headwater systems have...

  • Hispanic family diabetes project : a pilot intervention study

    Creator:
    White, Beverly B.
    Abstract:
    Changes in lifestyle over the last century have resulted in a dramatic increase in the incidence of diabetes in the United States (U.S.). Mexican-Americans, the largest Hispanic/Latino subgroup in the U.S., are 1.7x’s as likely to have diabetes as non- Hispanic Whites. Culturally appropriate approaches for treating diabetes in minority...

  • The effects of multiple pathogens on amphibians in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Romansic, John M.
    Abstract:
    The earth is undergoing a “biodiversity crisis” characterized by loss of populations, species, genetic diversity, and ecosystem services. Part of this crisis consists of population declines, extinctions, and increased incidence of deformities in amphibians. It is unknown whether deformities contribute to these declines. Many cases of population declines in amphibians...

  • 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...

  • 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...

    Brandt, Patricia A. and Guilford, Nancy
    Abstract:
    Oregon Biography Index is intended to serve primarily as a starting point in locating biographies of Oregonians. We have indexed 47 historical volumes which are either entirely devoted to biographies or have large self-contained biographical sections. The profiles in the books vary widely in accuracy and detail. Birth dates of...
