Characterization of the molecular foundations and biochemistry of alkane and ether oxidation in a filamentous fungus, a Graphium species.

Creator:: Skinner, Kristin M.
Abstract:: Graphium sp., a eukaryotic alkanotroph, is able to oxidize small-molecular weight gaseous n-alkanes, diethyl ether and the branched ether, methyl tert butyl ether (MTBE). However, information regarding the biochemistry of fungal-mediated alkane and ether metabolism is limited, and questions regarding the identity of alkane oxidation catalysts and the genetic underpinnings...

Factors contributing to the formation of CC-->TT tandem mutations

Creator:: Skinner, Amy M.
Abstract:: The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...

Dietary acculturation among Oregon Latinos : factors affecting food choice

Creator:: Vanegas, Sarah Marie
Abstract:: This study sought to examine food choice motives and influences among Oregon Latinos to gain a greater understanding of their dietary acculturation. Previous studies relying principally on quantitative methods to assess the relationship between acculturation and diet have reported inconsistent results, though a general decline in diet quality is reported...

Phase distribution parameter determination by neutron radiography

Creator:: Skinner, Jesse B.
Abstract:: A phase distribution parameter has been added to the one-dimensional two-phase horizontal flow conservation equations. The phase distribution parameter was incorporated into the conservation equations in an attempt to add stability and remove correlation switching by incorporating gravity. Determination of the phase distribution parameter requires an average void fraction profile...

Immigration and social movement activism in the United States and France : A comparative perspective

Creator:: Claysmith, Janine
Abstract:: The purpose of this essay is to explore the dynamics of social movements, and better understand why some populations succeed when others fail. This topic was motivated by travels across the United States and Europe. In these journeys, minority groups and their unequal treatment by society were a constant feature,...

Coastal sand dunes of Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Cooper, William Skinner, 1884-
Abstract:: In Part I the environment of the coastal dunes of Oregon and Washington is analyzed. Most of the substratum is a narrow foreland or terrace, in part submerged, that borders the mountain front. Temperature is relatively low in summer and rarely reaches the freezing point in winter. Winter precipitation is...

Hybridized framing to modify load paths and enhance wood shearwall performance

Creator:: Bultena, Sarah M.
Abstract:: Heavy timber framing relies primarily on bracing to withstand lateral loads due to earthquakes and wind events. Bracing configurations in heavy timber framed buildings vary widely and include cross bracing, knee bracing, and other geometries. Many heavy timber frames constructed during colonial American times are still standing, exceeding the expected...

Revegetation with Carex nebrascensis and Carex utriculata following reconstruction in a NE Oregon meadow stream

Creator:: Quistberg, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Riparian vegetation is an essential component for the maintenance and/or repair of channel stability and function. Sedges within low-gradient riparian systems provide the structure necessary for sediment trapping leading to channel narrowing through bank building processes. Planting success in riparian restoration projects has often failed due to inappropriate species selection,...

Alternative orchard floor management practices, soil quality, nitrogen fertilizeruptake, and apple tree growth and yield

Creator:: McDonald, Sarah Finger
Abstract:: Orchard floor management (OFM) practices can improve soil function and alter the soil biological community. Soil function is dependent on soil forming materials and on management practices but little is known about how OFM affect orchard soil quality, fertilizer N uptake, or tree growth and production. Research plots were located...
