Influences of high severity fire and postfire logging on avian and small mammal communities of the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Fontaine, Joseph B.
Abstract:: High severity fire is a historical and integral disturbance process in coniferous forest types. Compounded disturbances such as multiple fires or post-disturbance management activities are increasingly common, but ecological responses are not well understood and may represent novel types of disturbances. I studied bird and small mammal communities in the...

Trends in streamflow above and below dams across the Columbia River basin from 1950 to 2012 : assessing sub-basin sensitivity

Creator:: Hammond, John C.
Abstract:: Climate change, combined with population growth, is expected to exacerbate water scarcity globally. In the Columbia River basin (CRB), streamflow is managed for multiple objectives with a network of dams and reservoirs distributed throughout the basin that may mitigate climate change effects on water scarcity. This study quantified trends in...

Evaluation of the Labeled Hedonic Scale (LHS): Obtaining higher level data in consumer testing for product development research

Creator:: Hammond, Samuel J.
Abstract:: Among sensory and food scientists, the 9-point hedonic scale has been the most commonly used scale for measuring liking and disliking of products. Recently, the Labeled Hedonic Scale (LHS) was developed to overcome some recognized limitations of the 9-point hedonic scale. One of the claimed advantages of the LHS is...

Negative effect of purple loosestrife and reed canary grass on the diversity of wetland plant and moth communities

Creator:: Schooler, Shon
Abstract:: Invasive plants have the potential to reduce the diversity of species in plant and animal communities. I examined the negative effect of two invasive wetland plants, purple loosestrife and reed canary grass, on the species richness and diversity of plant and moth communities within 24 wetland study sites in the...

Mass spectrometric analysis of UV-crosslinked protein-nucleic acid complexes

Creator:: Doneanu, Catalin E.
Abstract:: The DNA-binding domains of E. coli uracil-DNA glycosylase (Ung) and human replication protein A (hRPA) were studied using a general protocol developed in our laboratory for probing protein-DNA interactions. The procedure involves purification and mass spectrometric analysis of the nucleopeptide-products of a tryptically digested UV-crosslinked protein-nucleic acid complex. In the...

Songbird feathers as indicators of mercury exposure : Patterns across feather tracts and correlations to other tissues

Creator:: Low, Katherine E.
Abstract:: Monitoring mercury (Hg) exposure in avian populations is critical to understanding the effects of this neurotoxin. Avian Hg exposure is commonly evaluated by measuring Hg concentrations in internal tissues, blood, and feathers. Feathers are a popular sampling matrix due to ease of sampling and limited stress to birds. However, it...

An evaluation of biological control of Linaria dalmatica with Mecinus janthinus in Oregon

Creator:: Park, Alexander
Abstract:: Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria dalmatica) has become a prolific invasive plant of rangelands in Oregon since its arrival in the early 20th century. In 2001, the Oregon Department of Agriculture initiated a release program promoting the distribution of the stem-boring weevil, Mecinus janthinus as classical biological control agent to reduce densities...
