Drivers and Impacts of a Recent Annual Grass Invasion: Ventenata dubia and Fire in the Inland Northwest

Creator:: Tortorelli, Claire M.
Abstract:: Biological invasions threaten native biodiversity, alter ecosystem function, and are a major cause of economic losses across the planet. The most impactful invaders alter disturbance regimes and initiate state shifts to outside the historical range of variability of the ecosystem. Concern for ecological and economic losses has prompted a rapid...

Lipid Profile in Pinot Noir Wine: Contributions to Taste and Mouthfeel Perception, Impacts of Winemaking Techniques, and Potential Use As Markers for Identifying Wine Origin

Creator:: Phan, Quynh K.
Abstract:: Wine taste and mouthfeel are essential factors that determine consumer acceptance, consumer preference, and wine quality. The three taste descriptors, sweet, sour, and bitter, are well understood and routinely appearing in wine sensory. In contrast, information related to mouthfeel sensations is still relatively limited. Winemakers have worked hard to craft...

Investigation of Hot-Air (HA) Drying Conditions and Shell Cracking Mechanism and Development of Radio-Frequency (RF) Dielectric Heating for Ensuring Quality and Reducing Shell Cracking of Oregon Hazelnuts (Corylus avellana L.)

Creator:: Wang, Wenjie
Abstract:: Oregon produces 99% US hazelnuts (Corylus avellana L.), occupying 3% world production. To ensure the quality and food safety of hazelnuts (inshells or kernels), industry and federal standards require freshly harvested nuts to be cleaned and dried to reach a final moisture content (MC) of inshells < 10%, MC of...

Use of herbal feed additives in poultry feeding

Creator:: Nix, Kathryn
Abstract:: The use of an antibiotic as a growth promoter (AGP) began in the 1940’s with the discovery of growth responses from Streptomyces aureofaciens in the monogastric diet. However, resistance and residue problems have increased the negative consumer perception of growth promoting antibiotic use in animal diets. Although no direct link...

Techno-economic analysis of algal lipid fuels

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: A techno-economic analysis (TEA) was performed to evaluate the technology, cost, and resource use for algal biofuel production based on today’s economics and technology. The basic goal of this study is to develop a model to calculate the mass and energy balances and costs to produce 10 million gal of...

The NRF2-controlled Antioxidant Response, Alternative Forages, and Selenium supplementation for Improving Ruminant Productivity and Health

Creator:: Ford, Hunter
Abstract:: Oxidative dysfunction can affect dairy animals during periods of heightened stress, particularly during the transition from pregnancy to lactation and during diseases, such as intramammary infection (IMI), and can contribute to increased inflammation, immune dysfunction, and cell death. As such, methods for ameliorating oxidative stress and restoring redox regulation may...

Techno-economic and Life-cycle Analyses of Glucosamine and Lipid Production from Marine Diatom Cyclotella sp.

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: Currently the production of biofuel from algae is not economically competitive with petroleum fuel. However, co-production of high-value products may be able to justify the cost of large-scale algae cultivation. The basic goal of this study is to develop a techno-economic analysis (TEA) and Life-cycle assessment (LCA) for the production...

An interdisciplinary framework for evaluating 19th century landscape paintings for ecological research

Creator:: Warren, Dana R., Loeb, Harper M., Betjemann, Peter, Munck, Isabel A., Keeton, William S., Shaw, David C., and Harvey, Eleanor J.
Abstract:: As we contemplate the future of forest landscapes under changing climate conditions and land-use demands, there is increasing value in studying historic forest conditions and how these landscapes have changed following past disturbances. Historic landscape paintings are a potential source of data on preindustrial forests with highly detailed, full-color depictions...

Examining Sexuality and Gender in Academic and Popular Discourses: Corpus-Based Analyses

Creator:: Ferrese, Shauna
Abstract:: Counseling as a profession has been on a journey of self-examination as CACREP approaches the release of its revised standards and the world recovers from the tumultuous few years under the shadow of the pandemic. Cultural shifts in perspective have prompted new conversations around concepts related to sexuality, racial identity,...
