Predicting the effects of climate change : effects of thermal stress on seaweeds in the Galapagos rocky intertidal

Creator:: Harris, Alyssa L.
Abstract:: Because global warming is predicted to increase the severity of El Niño events in the future, understanding how warmer temperatures affect seaweed growth and the animals associated with seaweeds is important for predicting how marine ecosystems will change. The Galapagos Islands of Ecuador are considered a living laboratory for studying...

Anti-obesity and Metabolic Health Impact of Pacific Dulse (Devaleraea mollis) and Nori (Pyropia spp.) Seaweeds in Western Diet-Induced Obese C57BL/6J Mice

Creator:: Zhou, Leyi
Abstract:: Seaweeds have gained tremendous recognition as a highly nutritious and sustainable crop. The diverse components of seaweeds are known to exhibit a wide range of bioactivities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, and cardiovascular health benefits. One such promising seaweed is Pacific dulse (Devaleraea mollis). While it holds great cultivating potential on the...

The strengthening of sport and nationalism in Lithuania despite Soviet influence

Creator:: Dannen, Chase
Abstract:: Upon the annex of Lithuania as a Soviet state, the Soviet Union imposed an order on Lithuanian athletic figures to represent the Soviet Union. Lithuanian athletes would now be obligated to represent the Soviet Union in all international sporting events in which they competed. The international success of Soviet Athletes,...

Transboundary river floods : vulnerability of continents, international river basins and countries

Creator:: Bakker, Marloes H. N.
Abstract:: Floods are the most frequent and damaging of all types of natural disasters and annually affect the lives of millions all over the globe. However, researchers seem to have overlooked the fact that floods do not recognize national boundaries. Therefore, the phenomena of shared, or transboundary floods occurring in international...

Assessing the design of international water supply and hydropower arrangements for managing certain climate change scenarios

Creator:: Zentner, Matthew A.
Abstract:: Increased variability of rainfall and flow from climate change has the potential to stress existing transboundary water sharing agreements and make meeting the needs of all riparians difficult. Water treaties have been theorized as valuable tools for mitigating conflict in times of climate stress, but the relationship between the design...

A Computational Fluid Dynamics Investigation of Hemolysis Potential in a Microfluidic Hemoperfusion Device Designed for Use in Sepsis Treatment

Creator:: Myers, Karl N.
Abstract:: The potential of red blood cell (RBC) and platelet damage was studied for a novel microfluidic hemoperfusion device currently in development at Oregon State University for use in treating sepsis. COMSOL 4.4's computational fluid dynamics (CFD) module was used to examine shear rate profiles in laminar, Newtonian blood flow throughout...

Comparison of dosimetric modeling of the International Commission on Radiological Protection trout reference animal

Creator:: Comolli, Michelle LeAnne
Abstract:: Radiation protection has historically been from a human protection approach, therefore many studies have neglected the potential dose contribution from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in animal studies. The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) utilized simplified geometric shapes with Dose Conversion Factors (DCF) based on homogenized models for the trout...

Assessing the Current State of Transboundary Cooperation in the International Columbia River Basin

Creator:: Timboe, Ingrid A.
Abstract:: The Columbia River Treaty (CRT) is often used as an example of how treaties can work to normalize, regulate, and improve the cooperative management of shared water resources between basin countries. Few would argue that, in its limited mandate to regulate hydropower generation and flood risk management for downstream communities,...

International students in a pathway program : perceived experiences in transitioning to U.S. higher education

Creator:: Holmes, Marigold Setsuko
Abstract:: As the number of international students continues to increase on campuses throughout the world, many institutions are turning to pathway programs (college preparation programs) to ensure that these students are able to successfully transition into the host culture and campus environment (Andrade, 2006; Dooey, 2010; Hanover Research, 2010; Perez-Pena, 2014,...

What are the Roles of International Water Organizations in Climate Change Adaptation?

Creator:: Adkhamov, Utkir
Abstract:: Water and climate change are interconnected with each other. Water is a medium through which the climate change manifests its far-reaching consequences on society. Sustainable water management practices are fundamental in implementing effective climate change adaptation. Given an influential position as global water actors, international water organizations (IWOs) play a...
