Internal Migration : The Role of Discrimination and Regionalism in Southern Italians' Self Construction of Identity

Creator:: Spiese, Caroline E.
Abstract:: Italian nationalism and an ‘Italian’ identity were constructed during Italy’s unification movement in the mid 1800’s. However, consensus on a national identity is still weak across Italy today. Instead, a polarization of Northern and Southern regions have contributed to discrimination, institutional racism and exclusion. This thesis demonstrates the multifaceted aspects...

Vocal repertoire of the social giant otter

Creator:: Leuchtenberger, Caroline, Sousa-Lima, Renata, Duplaix, Nicole, Magnusson, William E., and Mourão, Guilherme
Abstract:: According to the “social intelligence hypothesis,” species with complex social interactions have more sophisticated communication systems. Giant otters (Pteronura brasiliensis) live in groups with complex social interactions. It is likely that the vocal communication of giant otters is more sophisticated than previous studies suggest. The objectives of the current study...

Biogeographically distinct controls on C₃ and C₄ grass distributions: merging community and physiological ecology

Creator:: Griffith, Daniel M., Anderson, T. Michael, Osborne, Colin P., Strömberg, Caroline A. E., Forrestel, Elisabeth J., and Still, Christopher J.
Abstract:: AIM: C₄ photosynthesis is an adaptation that maintains efficient carbon assimilation in warm and low-CO₂ conditions. Due to the importance of C₄ grasses for carbon and surface energy fluxes numerous models have been proposed to describe their spatial distribution and forecast responses to climate change. These models often rely on...

Management guide for drip irrigation on seed carrots in central Oregon

Creator:: Oregon State University. Extension Service, Weber, C. E. (Caroline E.), Butler, M. D., Campbell, C. K., Holliday, B. A., and Klauzer, J.
Abstract:: In 2000 and 2001, research at the Central Oregon Agricultural Research Center in Madras, Oregon evaluated drip irrigation significant reduction in water usage, increased seed yields, and a decrease in disease. As a result, drip irrigation was placed in commercial fields in 2002. Drip irrigation is now used in the...

Pathogenicity, Fungicide Resistance, and Genetic Variability of Phytophthora rubi Isolates from Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) in the Western United States

Creator:: Stewart, Jane E., Kroese, Duncan, Tabima, Javier F., Larsen, Meredith M., Fieland, Valerie J., Press, Caroline M., Zasada, Inga A., and Grünwald, Niklaus J.
Abstract:: Root rot of raspberry (Rubus idaeus), thought to be primarily caused by Phytophthora rubi, is an economically important disease in the western United States. The objectives of this study were to determine which Phytophthora species are involved in root rot, examine the efficacy of different isolation methods (cane, root, and...

Metagenomic and metatranscriptomic inventories of the lower Amazon River, May 2011

Creator:: Satinsky, Brandon M., Fortunato, Caroline S., Doherty, Mary, Smith, Christa B., Sharma, Shalabh, Ward, Nicholas D., Krusche, Alex V., Yager, Patricia L., Richey, Jeffrey E., Moran, Mary Ann, and Crump, Byron C.
Abstract:: Background: The Amazon River runs nearly 6500 km across the South American continent before emptying into the western tropical North Atlantic Ocean. In terms of both volume and watershed area, it is the world’s largest riverine system, affecting elemental cycling on a global scale. Results: A quantitative inventory of genes...

Abstract:: Forests dominate carbon (C) exchanges between the terrestrial biosphere and the atmosphere on land. In the long term, the net carbon flux between forests and the atmosphere has been significantly impacted by changes in forest cover area and structure due to ecological disturbances and management activities. Current empirical approaches for...

Abstract:: Non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in plant tissue are frequently quantified to make inferences about plant responses to environmental conditions. Laboratories publishing estimates of NSC of woody plants use many different methods to evaluate NSC. We asked whether NSC estimates in the recent literature could be quantitatively compared among studies. We also...
