Changes in gene expression related to the decline of the aging immune system

Creator:: Tran, Jenny K. and Gombart, Adrian F.
Abstract:: In this study, the gene expression levels between 6 month old mice and 26 month old mice were compared. The purpose of this research was to identify genes that are differentially regulated due to aging. The results showed 148 significantly differentiated genes in the analysis of a total of 44,170...

Forests are full of Sunlight: The Energy for Life, featuring Dr. Mark Harmon

Creator:: Dauer, Jenny
Abstract:: Because all life on Earth begins with plants capturing energy from the sun, the living things that you see around you are essentially sunlight. Sunlight energy helps transform carbon dioxide in the air into living plant tissues made of carbon materials such as sugars, starches, and fibers.

Like a Breath of Fresh Air: Measuring Carbon Dioxide in the Biosphere, featuring Dr. Beverly Law

Creator:: Edwards, Jenny
Abstract:: Just like the in-and-out movement of air in a human lung, the living parts of the forest have regular rhythms of exchange with the air. Across North America, a network of more than 90 towers called AmeriFlux monitors this daily breathing of forests, grasslands, croplands, and shrublands.

Optimizing map projection selection for world maps and web maps

Creator:: Šavrič, Bojan
Abstract:: The selection process for map projections is a mystery to many mapmakers and GIS users. Map projections ought to be selected based on the map’s geographic extent and the required distortion properties, with the goal of minimizing the distortion of the mapped area. Despite some available selection guidelines, the selection...

Evaluating the effectiveness of illuminated and shadowed contour lines

Creator:: Eynard, James D.
Abstract:: Illuminated contour lines, where line width and color are varied based on an angle of illumination, date back to the mid-nineteenth century, but their effectiveness compared to conventional contour lines has not been fully examined. Currently, illuminated contour lines are not widely used in computer-based cartography because they are not...

Does Trade Dependence Matter? A Quantitative Analysis of the Effect of Trade Dependence on the Outcome of Economic Sanctions

Creator:: Shevtsova, Iana
Abstract:: Economic sanctions are widely used in the international arena in order to reconcile political conflicts and retain peace between countries. Most states prefer to use economic sanctions rather than military interventions as a more efficient tool to maintain political stability and protect their own interests. Nevertheless, sanctions are not always...

3D vs. conventional volcanic hazard maps : a user study at Mount Hood

Creator:: Preppernau, Charles A.
Abstract:: Volcanic hazard maps inform the public on the nature and extent of the hazards that threaten them, but these maps are often challenging for those who are not trained in map use or geology. The maps in this study focus on lahars, a dangerous, fast, and far-reaching volcanic hazard that...

A dwarfed population of Catostomus rimiculus (Catostomidae: Pisces) in Jenny Creek, Jackson County, Oregon

Creator:: Hohler, David Berry
Abstract:: The population of Catostomus rimiculus from Jenny Creek basin is identified as a dwarfed derivative of the normally much larger C. rimiculus from the Klamath and Rogue River systems. C. rimiculus in Jenny Creek basin are separated from those in the Klamath by a series of 3-10m waterfalls resulting from...

Diet and nutrition of female sage grouse during the pre-laying period

Creator:: Barnett, Jenny K.
Abstract:: Nutrition effects productivity of grouse. Females that obtain high nutrient diets in spring produce larger clutches and larger, more viable chicks than hens on less nutritious diets. Grouse select high nutrient foods to help ensure proper nutrition. Reduced productivity accounted for the decline of sage grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations in...
