An evaluation of understory vegetation dynamics, ecosystem resilience and state and transition ecological theory in an eastern Oregon ponderosa pine forest

Creator:: Carr, Craig A.
Abstract:: Relatively recent increases in ponderosa pine abundance have effected unprecedented changes to ecosystem structure and function. Efforts to restore ponderosa pine systems are often focused on the manipulation of tree structure and the re-introduction of a more natural fire regime. Successful restoration should also incorporate understory components but information addressing...

Material Expressions of Class, Status and Authority amongst Commissioned Officers at Fort Yamhill and Fort Hoskins, Oregon, 1856-1866

Creator:: Eichelberger, Justin E.
Abstract:: During the 19th century the United States Army was a military institution characterized by a hierarchical system of authoritative, social and economic inequality between members of its different military grades. Although necessary for insuring military discipline within the Army this system of inequality also influenced the non-military social lives of...

Intraseasonal Oscillations of ~20 days Revisited: The Jet Stream and its Ecological Implications along the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Herweck, Kendra
Abstract:: Intraseasonal oscillations in the atmosphere-ocean system can affect weather patterns and regional ecosystems. In turn, these oscillations can be affected by climate variability, resulting in additive and/or non-linear responses of regional ecosystems to climate forcing. In the Northern California Current, a strong correlation was identified between the location of the...

Optimizing the Membrane Architecture and Interrogating the Stability of Hybrid Lipid-coated Gold Nanoparticles for Biological Studies and Applications

Creator:: Kmetz-Gonzalez, Gemma
Abstract:: Nanoparticles are a hugely diverse category of material that have a wide variety of biomedical applications, and developing tools for biological research with high cellular uptake is critical to their effective application. However, rarely is attention paid to the exact mechanism by which this is occurring, with most studies focusing...

Production of SO₂ and SO₂ binding compounds by Saccharomyces cerevisiae during the alcoholic fermentation and the impact on wine lactic acid bacteria

Creator:: O'Neil, Allison L.
Abstract:: Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is important in the production of wines as it reduces acidity through the conversion of malic acid to lactic acid. However, successful MLF can be difficult to achieve due to yeast antagonism of the bacterium responsible for the secondary fermentation, Oenococcus oeni. In particular, yeast produced sulfur...

A Micro Scale Magnetic Particle Imaging System

Creator:: Lenox, Philip A.
Abstract:: Magnetic particle imaging (MPI) is a biomedical imaging technique which detects the presence of magnetic nanoparticles which have been introduced into the specimen prior to imaging. MPI has shown promise for real-time imaging with spatial resolution comparable to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MPI research has focused predominantly on the development...

Habitat Use and Ecological Interactions of Invasive Lionfish in the Bahamas

Creator:: Davis, Alexandra C. D.
Abstract:: Invasive species are a growing global economic and ecological problem. Invasive Indo-Pacific lionfish (Pterois spp.) are known to have extreme negative effects on coral-reef communities in the Bahamas, so understating their distribution within and among reefs, what limits their local movements, and the effects they have on native prey species...

Radioxenon generation using highly enriched uranium

Creator:: Elliott, Anthony James
Abstract:: This work focuses on the generation and collection of four specific radioxenon isotopes; xenon-131m, xenon-133m, xenon-133 and xenon-135. These nuclides are created by fissioning a highly enriched uranium sample using a thermal neutron source from a university research reactor. The three main aspects of this work include: (1) Conducting preliminary...

Pseudoloma neurophilia in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Consequences of Infection on Neurobehavioral and Biomedical Research using a Burgeoning Model Organism

Creator:: Spagnoli, Sean
Abstract:: Since its inception as a laboratory animal in the early 1970s, the zebrafish has proven itself a rising star in the world of comparative biomedical sciences due to its short generation time, ease of care, external fertilization, and transparent larvae. In a very few decades, the zebrafish has been utilized...

Effects of vegetation and disturbance on fungal communities in the western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Kageyama, Stacie Ann, 1967-
Abstract:: The use of high throughput molecular methods that allow for the study of bacterial communities in environmental samples is commonplace in microbial ecology. Until recently, fungal community ecology has focused on isolation, collection of sporocarps, or collection of ectomycorrhizal roots. The techniques used to extract and amplify DNA from environmental...
