Exploring Vulnerability and Scarcity of Groundwater Resources in Quintana Roo, Mexico

Creator:: Iglesias Thome, Maria Jose
Abstract:: This study examined water scarcity and vulnerability in Quintana Roo, along the northern Caribbean coast of Mexico where rapid growth of tourism in the past 40 years has limited the ability of rural and urban communities to obtain safe, reliable, and equitable access to water services and critical water infrastructure...

Microsatellite Markers Reveal Strong Genetic Structure in the Endemic Chilean Dolphin

Creator:: José Pérez-Alvarez, María, Olavarría, Carlos, Moraga, Rodrigo, Baker, C. Scott, Hamner, Rebecca M., and Poulin, Elie
Abstract:: Understanding genetic differentiation and speciation processes in marine species with high dispersal capabilities is challenging. The Chilean dolphin, Cephalorhynchus eutropia, is the only endemic cetacean of Chile and is found in two different coastal habitats: a northern habitat with exposed coastlines, bays and estuaries from Valparaíso (33°02' S) to Chiloé...

Factors that motivate Latino students to pursue higher education in selected colleges in the state of Oregon

Creator:: Meza Discua, José Luis
Abstract:: Latinos are the largest and most rapidly growing ethnic minority in the United States, and they have the highest dropout rates of any major ethnic group in the country (U.S. Department of Labor, 2003). Latinos' educational attainment is consistently lower than that of other students (Gandara, 2008). The majority of...

Possible association of grain protein content, harvest index and biological yield in winter wheat populations

Creator:: Costa, Jose Maria
Abstract:: A negative relation between grain protein content and grain yield is frequently observed in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) i.e. as grain yield increases, grain protein decreases. It has been suggested that the inverse relation between grain yield and protein is in part the result of developing high yielding...

Possible association between grain protein content and yield as influenced by harvest index and biological yield in selected hard red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) crosses

Creator:: Costa, José María
Abstract:: Grain yield and grain protein are often negatively associated in wheat. When yield increases and grain protein decreases, there can be an adverse effect on the milling and baking quality if the desired end product is bread flour. It has been suggested that this inverse association is the result of...

Plant community recovery after high severity wildfire and post-fire management in the Klamath Region

Creator:: Lopez Ortiz, Maria Jose
Abstract:: Disturbance and microclimate interact to play a central role influencing the composition and structure of plant communities. In this thesis, I examined plant community composition and structure twenty years after high severity wildfires with and without post-fire management (salvage logging, fuel treatment, tree planting, and shrub release) under contrasting microclimatic...

Integration of oceanographic information off the Washington and Oregon coasts into west coast groundfish ecology and fisheries management

Creator:: Juan Jorda, Maria Jose
Abstract:: To date, the use of oceanographic data in fisheries management has been limited by the scarcity and the difficulty of accessing complete oceanographic datasets. Consequently, fish stocks are managed with limited knowledge about the habitat where fish live and incomplete understanding of what oceanographic conditions affect their populations. With the...

Transcriptome profiling of Nitrosomonas europaea grown singly and in co-culture with Nitrobacter winogradskyi

Creator:: Pérez, José
Abstract:: In most environments, ammonia (NH₃) is oxidized to nitrate (NO₃⁻) via the intermediate nitrite (NO₂⁻). This is a microbe-driven process involving phylogenetically distinct types of microorganisms, namely, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and Thaumarchaea (AOA), and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). Nitrosomonas europaea and Nitrobacter winogradskyi are the best studied AOB and NOB, respectively,...

Culturable Wood Endophytes of Populus trichocarpa

Creator:: Buckner, Jacob G.
Abstract:: This study is believed to be the first of its kind to characterize culturable fungal endophytes from the wood of Populus trichocarpa, and to examine the potential of inducible resistance and secondary chemistry as specific host factors that shape fungal endophytic communities in wood. To do so, more than seventy...

Adjustments and challenges experienced by adult Hispanic students in a public technical college

Creator:: Suchite, Jose M.
Abstract:: Little research has been done in the area of adult Hispanics' transition to college, a complex and challenging process which marks a critical period in their lives. Research suggests adaptation difficulty may cause them to drop out of school usually before completion of the first terms. There is a lack...
