Evaluating space use and pesticide exposure risk for burrowing owls in an agricultural environment

Creator:: Gervais, Jennifer A.
Abstract:: Large burrowing owl (Aihene cunicularia) populations exist in areas of intensive agriculture in California, and pesticide exposure has been identified as a potential threat to population persistence. I evaluated breeding season use of agricultural fields by adult male owls using radio telemetry, and examined egg contaminant residues to estimate population-level...

Competitive interactions and resource partitioning between northern spotted owls and barred owls in western Oregon

Creator:: Wiens, J. David
Abstract:: The federally threatened northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) is the focus of intensive conservation efforts that have led to much forested land being reserved as habitat for the owl and associated wildlife species throughout the Pacific Northwest of the United States. Recently, however, a relatively new threat to spotted...

West Nile virus : forecasting models for a resurging vector-borne disease in Arizona, U.S.A.

Creator:: Roldan, Josiah Javier
Abstract:: West Nile Virus (WNV), a vector-borne disease continues to be a serious threat to public health in the United States, particularly in the Southwest region. While all the states in the U.S. experienced a decreasing trend of WNV disease in 2010, the state of Arizona experienced a sharp increase from...

Abundance and habitat associations of Washington ground squirrels in north-central Oregon

Creator:: Greene, Eric
Abstract:: Much of the Columbia River Basin has been cultivated for agriculture, which has reduced and fragmented the native shrub-steppe habitats. As a result, the range of the Washington ground squirrel (Spermophilus washingtoni) has been significantly reduced, prompting the states of Washington and Oregon to review their status. Consequently, I investigated...

Demography and habitat selection of northern spotted owls in post-fire landscapes of southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Darren A.
Abstract:: Several large wildfires in southwestern Oregon during the summers of 2001 and 2002 provided the opportunity to investigate the impacts of wildfire on northern spotted owls (Strix occidentalis caurina). I used radio-telemetry and demographic surveys to describe demographic performance and habitat selection of spotted owls in the areas burned by...

Habitat use and densities of cavity-nesting birds in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Nelson, S. Kim
Abstract:: I studied abundance patterns and habitat use of eight cavitynesting bird species in the Coast Ranges of Western Oregon during the spring and summer of 1985 and 1986. Three age classes of unmanaged Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stands were selected for study: young (40-80 yrs), mature (80-200 yrs), and old-growth (>200...

The optical properties of multi-scale plasmonic structures and their applications in optical characterization and imaging

Creator:: Kuhta, Nicholas Anthony
Abstract:: The optical response of metallic structures is dominated by the dynamics of their free electron plasma. Plasmonics, the area of optics specializing in the electromagnetic behavior of heterogeneous structures with metallic inclusions, is undergoing rapid development, fueled in part by recent progress in experimental fabrication techniques and novel theoretical approaches....

Extent of DNA homology in some distantly and intimately related fishes

Creator:: Gharrett, Anthony John
Abstract:: An attempt was made to differentiate between runs of steelhead by comparing the reassociations of their DNA. Conditions for the reassociation were studied using E. coli DNA, and observations were made spectrophotometrically. Of the five buffers examined, 1.0 molar sodium perchlorate plus one-hundredth molar tris-HCl, pH 7.1, at 60° or...

Behavior and analysis of pile caps with poor anchorage details

Creator:: Sorentino, Anthony William
Abstract:: Pile caps are structural elements used to transmit loads from structural columns into pile groups. A pile cap is generally constructed of reinforced concrete and contains only minimal flexural reinforcing steel. Using modern design methods, the anchorage of the flexural steel may limit the design capacity of existing pile caps....
