Will wetlands restoration plans today still be effective tomorrow? Evaluation of performance of potential wetlands for peak flow reduction in future climate scenarios in the Eagle Creek Watershed, IN

Creator:: Walters, Kelli M.
Abstract:: Global climate change is expected to exaggerate the severity of floods and droughts and increase the frequency of extreme streamflow events in the Midwestern United States. Managing these projected impacts poses a major challenge for water resources, conservation, and land use management. Wetlands have been considered as a conservation strategy...

Olivine-Respiring Bacteria Isolated from the Rock-Ice Interface in a Lava-Tube Cave, a Mars Analogue Environment

Creator:: Popa, Radu, Smith, Amy, Popa, Rodica, Boone, Jane, and Fisk, Martin R.
Abstract:: The boundary between ice and basalt on Earth is an analog for some near-surface environments of Mars. We investigated neutrophilic iron-oxidizing microorganisms from the basalt-ice interface in a lava tube from the Oregon Cascades with perennial ice. One of the isolates (Pseudomonas sp. HerB) can use ferrous iron Fe(II) from...

Mitigation Banks in Washington State: Case Study of Developing the Schold Farm Mitigation Bank

Creator:: Dadisman, Jennifer
Abstract:: Wetland habitats are disappearing at an alarming rate and research is finding that establishment and creation of wetland habitat is generally unsuccessful. Typical mitigation strategies in the past have created multiple small isolated wetlands with little functioning habitat. Within Washington State, guidance and research recommends utilizing mitigation banks to compensate...

Biodiversity : illustrations of some concepts, causes, and consequences

Creator:: Russell, Roland B.
Abstract:: Careful analysis and thoughtful synthesis will be necessary for expanding the envelope of ecological understanding. This work is my attempt at communicating both of these, in relation to three questions about our understanding of the structure and dynamics of biological diversity. These questions focus on a) advancing our understanding of...

Isolation of a methanogen from deep marine sediments that contain methane hydrates, and description of Methanoculleus submarinus sp. nov.

Creator:: Mikucki, Jill A., Liu, Yitai, Delwiche, Mark, Colwell, Fredrick, and Boone, David R.
Abstract:: We isolated a methanogen from deep in the sediments of the Nankai Trough off the eastern coast of Japan. At the sampling site, the water was 950 m deep and the sediment core was collected at 247 m below the sediment surface. The isolated methanogen was named Nankai-1. Cells of...

Dynamics of coarse woody debris following wildfire in a mountain hemlock (Tsuga mertensiana) forest

Creator:: Acker, Steven A., Kertis, Jane, Bruner, Howard, O’Connell, Kari, and Sexton, Jay
Abstract:: Coarse woody debris (CWD, comprised of snags and downed logs) is an important component of the structure and function of forest ecosystems, one which both influences the availability of fuel for wildfires and can be a result of wildfires. We studied snag persistence, and changes in mass of CWD in...

Optimizing conservation practices in watersheds: Do community preferences matter?

Creator:: Piemonti, Adriana D., Babbar-Sebens, Meghna, and Luzar, E. Jane
Abstract:: This paper focuses on investigating (a) how landowner tenure and attitudes of farming communities affect the preference of individual conservation practices in agricultural watersheds, (b) how spatial distribution of landowner tenure affects the spatial optimization of conservation practices on a watershed scale, and (c) how the different attitudes and preferences...

Wildland fire in ecosystems : effects of fire on fauna

Creator:: Lyon, L. Jack, Huff, Mark H., Hooper, Robert G., Telfer, Edmund S., Schreiner, David Scott, and Smith, Jane Kapler
Abstract:: Fires affect animals mainly through effects on their habitat. Fires often cause short-term increases in wildlife foods that contribute to increases in populations of some animals. These increases are moderated by the animals’ ability to thrive in the altered, often simplified, structure of the postfire environment. The extent of fire...

Queer Materiality: Freaks, Ghosts, and Madness in Victorian Culture and the Novels of Charlotte Brontë

Creator:: Kennedy, Tallon R.
Abstract:: This thesis offers a theory of queer materiality as a way of understanding the interconnectedness of freaks, ghosts, and madness in Victorian culture, and how these elements coalesce in Victorian literature to destabilize the knowable materiality of normative social structures and forms of embodiment, leading to the production of queer...

Oregon women : a bio-bibliography

Creator:: Leasher, Evelyn M.
Abstract:: This index provides access to infonnation about women in 102 books and journals. The information contained in each entry is only as good as the original and the quality varies considerably. Much of this infonnation has not before been easily accesible in this form. My hope is that this index...
