  • Partial purification of cathepsins from salmon muscle

    Creator:
    Ting, Chao-Yun
    Abstract:
    Cathepsins are intracellular proteinases that hydrolyze the peptide bonds of proteins. These enzyme have been implicated in the tenderization of aging beef, with the deterioration of radiation-stabilized meats on storage, and in the spoilage of fish prior to processing. Hence, the cathepsins of edible muscles are of concern to the...

  • The effects of increased supply and emerging technologies in the forest products industry on rural communities in the northwest U.S.

    Creator:
    Crandall, Mindy S.
    Abstract:
    The development of a market for currently non-merchantable forest material, such as harvest residues of tops and limbs of trees or small diameter trees, has been suggested as a possible win-win solution that could: (i) provide a financial incentive to help motivate treatments to reduce wildfire risk or restore forest...

  • Determining optimal timber harvest and fuel treatment on a fire-threatened landscape using approximate dynamic programming

    Creator:
    Lauer, Christopher Joseph
    Abstract:
    Forest management in the face of fire risk is a challenging problem because fire spreads across a landscape and because its occurrence is unpredictable. Additionally, management must be adjusted over time as unpredictable fire events are realized. Land managers have some control over the vegetation conditions that facilitate fire spread,...

    Big Lava Lake in Deschutes County, Oregon, was chemically treated September 19, 1963, to eliminate a population of roach and white fish. An estimated kill in excess of 400,000 fish resulted from the application of 4,620 gallons of liquid rotenone (Pro-Noxfish) at a toxicity of 2.0 ppm. Live -boxed brook...

  • Wildfire risk management : strategic interaction and spatial interdependence

    Creator:
    Busby, Gwenlyn M.
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I examine how the spatial configuration of forest ownership influences the risk-mitigating behavior of public and private forestland owners over time. I determine whether or not the predicted equilibrium outcomes are socially optimal and, if not, whether the introduction of regulation, liability, or private insurance would lead...

    Nalle, Darek J.
    Abstract:
    Alteration of natural areas in attempts to support increasing human populations has been a crucial yet less publicized contributor to the fall of many of the world's greatest civilizations, since healthy ecosystems can help maintain stable societies and economies. Given this unhappy fact and the ancient relationship between people and...
