Indigenous language preservation programs and language policy in education : a web-based intertextual analysis

Creator:: Muniz, Gloria J. Bock
Abstract:: There are more than 6,900 known living languages in the world, half of which could be extinct within one hundred years. Approximately 150 indigenous American languages are still spoken in the United States; however, it is estimated that by the year 2050 only twenty of them will remain. Language preservation...

The accumulation of mitochondrial DNA deletions as Caenorhabditis elegans ages

Creator:: Thompson, Emily J.
Abstract:: Though previous genetic research studies performed on Caenorhabditis elegans found that high levels of endogenous oxidative stress resulted in decreased health, and that mitochondrial DNA deletions accumulated with age in these organisms, no studies have been conducted to link these two separate findings. This study correlated these separate results by...

Integrating traceability with onboard handling to enhance product quality and marketability of Eastern Pacific troll-caught albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga)

Creator:: Thompson, Michael J.
Abstract:: The fishing industry in the Pacific Northwest is a dynamic and highly competitive industry that must constantly respond to rapidly changing resource, regulatory and market forces. These forces have already had a significant impact on our fisheries and will continue to do so as we learn more about the biology...

Coding sequence density estimation via topological pressure

Creator:: Koslicki, David and Thompson, Daniel J.
Abstract:: We give a new approach to coding sequence (CDS) density estimation in genomic analysis based on the topological pressure, which we develop from a well known concept in ergodic theory. Topological pressure measures the ‘weighted information content’ of a finite word, and incorporates 64 parameters which can be interpreted as...

Retinoid-X-Receptors (α/β) in Melanocytes Modulate Innate Immune Responses and Differentially Regulate Cell Survival following UV Irradiation

Creator:: Coleman, Daniel J., Garcia, Gloria, Hyter, Stephen, Jang, Hyo Sang, Chagani, Sharmeen, Liang, Xiaobo, Larue, Lionel, Ganguli-Indra, Gitali, and Indra, Arup K.
Abstract:: Understanding the molecular mechanisms of ultraviolet (UV) induced melanoma formation is becoming crucial with more reported cases each year. Expression of type II nuclear receptor Retinoid-X-Receptor α (RXRα) is lost during melanoma progression in humans. Here, we observed that in mice with melanocyte-specific ablation of RXRα and RXRβ, melanocytes attract...

Terahertz imaging of inhomogeneous electrodynamics in single-layer graphene embedded in dielectrics

Creator:: Paul, M. J., Tomaino, J. L., Kevek, J. W., DeBorde, T., Thompson, Z. J., Minot, E. D., and Lee, Yun-Shik
Abstract:: We investigate electron transport properties in large-area, single-layer graphene embedded in dielectric media, using free-space terahertz (THz) imaging and time-domain spectroscopy. Sandwiched between a thin polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) layer and a Si substrate, graphene layers of different growth recipes exhibit distinctive spatial inhomogeneity of sheet conductivity. The non-contacting, non-destructive THz...

Pelagibacter metabolism of diatom-derived volatile organic compounds imposes an energetic tax on photosynthetic carbon fixation

Creator:: Thompson, Douglas A., Moore, Eric R., Davie-Martin, Cleo L., Giovannani, Stephen J., and Halsey, Kimberly, H.
Abstract:: Photosynthetic diatoms and marine bacteria contribute about one third of the net primary production in marine environments. Understanding the interactions between these two organisms is potentially important to the over all flow of carbon in the marine ecosystem.

A self-cleaning biological filter : How appendicularians mechanically control particle adhesion and removal

Creator:: Conley, Keats R., Gemmell, Brad J., Bouquet, Jean-Marie, Thompson, Eric M., and Sutherland, Kelly R.
Abstract:: Appendicularians are ubiquitous marine grazers that use tangential filtration to collect micron and submicron prey. The food-concentrating filter (FCF) is the primary determinant of appendicularian prey selectivity, but the precise means by which it concentrates and conveys particles to the pharyngeal filter remain poorly understood. We used high-speed videography to...

Forests, farms & people: Land use change on non-federal land in Oregon 1974-2014

Creator:: Gray, Andrew N., Hubner, Dan, Lettman, Gary J., McKay, Neil, and Thompson, Joel L.
Abstract:: Oregon has done remarkably well in preserving forests, farms, and rangeland from development. Ninety-seven percent of all non-Federal land in Oregon that was in resource land uses in 1974 remained in those uses in 2014. Ninety-nine percent of all non-Federal land in Oregon that was in resource land uses in...
