Dextral shear and north-directed crustal shortening defines the transition between extensional and contractional provinces in north-central Oregon

Creator:: Johnson, Ajeet K.
Abstract:: Distributed deformation in the backarc of Cascadia is complex. Off the west coast lies the Cascadia convergent margin. East of the plate boundary, clockwise rotation of the Oregon Coast Range block with respect to stable North America influences backarc deformation, causing extensional faults in southeast Oregon, contraction folding in southeast...

An Investigation into the Functional Properties of the Deafness Causing Protein Otoferlin

Creator:: Manchanda, Aayushi
Abstract:: Otoferlin is a C2-domain, transmembrane protein whose mutated form is responsible for the DFNB9 subtype of prelingual hearing impairment. Mutations in otoferlin cause an autosomal recessive, non-syndromic form of deafness that is characterized by auditory neuropathy/ auditory dissynchrony (AN/AD), meaning that the outer hair cells (OHCs) are normal, and the...

Vitamin E and K interactions : investigating mechanisms of reduced vitamin K status in response to excess vitamin E

Creator:: Farley, Sherry Mae
Abstract:: The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...

The effect of sucrose, aspartame, acesulfame-K and blended aspartame/acesulfame-K on orange and strawberry flavor in model solutions

Creator:: Wiseman, Jennifer Jo
Abstract:: The effect of sweeteners on fruit flavor perception was studied through the use of fruitiness power functions for unsweetened and sweetened model systems. In the first part of the study, two isosweet concentrations of aspartame and sucrose were determined and combined with five concentrations of orange and strawberry flavorants. Fruitiness...

Modeling local timber harvests using a set of error-related economic relations

Creator:: Stone, Trevor M.
Abstract:: Recent changes in public timber supplies in the Pacific Northwest have increased the importance of the role private timber plays in the forest products industry and local communities. Most economic models of timber supply, however, have emphasized national or regional markets where data are adequate and statistical testing methodologies relatively...

Historical disturbance regimes as a reference for forest policy

Creator:: Thompson, Jonathan R.
Abstract:: Using the historical range of forest conditions as a reference for managing landscapes has been proposed as a "coarse-filter" approach to biodiversity conservation. By emulating historical disturbance processes, it is thought that forest management can produce forest composition and structure similar to the conditions that once supported the native biota....

Keying forest stream protection to aquatic ecosystem values in multi-ownership watersheds

Creator:: Pickard, Brian R.
Abstract:: Forested lands of western Oregon provide aquatic habitat for many fish and riparian dependent species, including a wide variety of salmon species. Current policies set riparian protections using fixed buffers on streams for federal and private lands based on stream type or size. These buffers can create a series of...

Decision support systems for forest biodiversity management : a review of tools and an analytical-deliberative framework for understanding their successful application

Creator:: Gordon, Sean N.
Abstract:: The complexity of forest management has increased with the scope of resources of concern and the level of scrutiny from stakeholders. The design and use of specialized computer software, often referred to as “decision support systems” (DSS), is one method for helping managers deal with this complexity. DSS have proven...

Shear wave attenuation in unconsolidated laboratory sediments

Creator:: Brunson, Burlie A.
Abstract:: Shear wave attenuation measurements were made using ceramic bimorph transducers to excite transverse vibrations in a cylindrical column of unconsolidated sediment. Three different water-saturated sediments were used in an attempt to determine the effects of grain shape and sorting on the frequency dependence of attenuation. The mean grain size of...

The SafeD model : incorporating episodic disturbances and heuristic programming into forest management planning for the Applegate River Watershed, southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Graetz, David H.
Abstract:: A hybrid landscape optimization/simulation model called SafeD (Simulation and analysis of forests with episodic Disturbances) was built to address the needs of forest management planning in the Applegate River Watershed, southwestern Oregon (the Apple gate Project). There are two goals of the Applegate Project: 1) search for forest policies and...
