Aspects of the foraging ecology of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage, Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Szabo, Andrew R.
Abstract:: The North Pacific humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) population has been increasing at an average annual rate of ~6% since the early 1990s. In northern Southeast Alaska alone, there are now more whales than estimated for the entire North Pacific several decades ago. An understanding of how this growing population is...

Ligand selective regulation of cell growth by the Ah receptor through activation of TGF-beta signaling, Ligand selective regulation of cell growth by the Ah receptor through activation of TGFβ signaling

Creator:: Koch, Daniel C.
Abstract:: The Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor and member of the basic helix-loop-helix Per/ARNT/Sim (bHLH/PAS) family of chemosensors and developmental regulators. As a member of the PAS domain family of transcription factors responsive to exogenous signals, the AhR exerts influence on many processes relating to cellular fate....

"I've lived on these streets, and these streets aren't pretty" : The Life Stories of Corvallis Homeless Women

Creator:: Koch, Elizabeth C.
Abstract:: Over two million people experience homelessness in the United States, but homeless people are often marginalized by invisibility and stigmas surrounding poverty within their local communities. This research seeks to amplify the voices of Corvallis area homeless women as a means to understand their everyday lived experiences. Six women residing...

Fluorescence Spectrometry to Quantify Percent Wood Failure in Adhesive Bonds

Creator:: Rueppel, Talbot B.
Abstract:: Structural engineered wood manufacturers need a quantitative measurement technique to determine the ratio of wood to adhesive failure in their shear specimens. Visual estimation of percent wood failure has long stood as an extremely subjective quality control approach according to ASTM D5266 – Standard Practice for Estimating the Percentage of...

Biogeochemical Processing of Freshwater Carbon in the Anthropocene

Creator:: Buser, Jessica Z.
Abstract:: Freshwater systems cycle carbon along a spatial and temporal biogeochemical continuum, across which ecosystem processes contribute to transformations of organic matter (OM). Various ecological constraints impact rates OM transformation and production and consumption of the energetic end of respiration, methane. Microbiological processing and complete reduction of carbon substrates to methane...

Redefining the past : essays in diplomatic history in honor of William Appleman Williams

Creator:: Williams, William Appleman and Gardner, Lloyd C., 1934-
Abstract:: The essays in this collection do not cluster about a specific theme, nor do they present a single unified interpretative approach to issues in the history of American foreign policy. Above all, William Appleman Williams is a teacher. And good teachers are disappointed with conformity. No one would ever come...

Comparing Sediment Microbial Communities of Arctic Beaver Ponds to Tundra Lakes and Streams

Creator:: Shannon, Kelly
Abstract:: In recent decades the habitat of North American beaver (Castor canadensis) has expanded from boreal forests into pan-Arctic tundra ecosystems. It is unknown how the advance of beavers into Arctic watersheds will impact microbial communities responsible for the mineralization of organic matter (OM), which has implications for carbon cycling. To...

Production of biohydrodeoxygenated diesel in a novel microscale reactor : Experiments and modeling

Creator:: Atadana, Frederick Williams
Abstract:: Microscale reactors operate in sub millimeter space dimensions. Their small length scale enables process intensification of mass, heat and momentum transport that influence reaction rates. Hence it's possible to observe the true intrinsic reaction kinetics occurring for a set of reactions. In this work a novel microscale reactor for producing...

Solubility of aluminosilicates in kraft green and white liquors

Creator:: Wannenmacher, P. Nick
Abstract:: The increasing occurrence of aluminosilicate caused complications in krafi pulp mills can be attributed to the closing of purge points and the expanded use of contaminated feedstocks and recycled fiber sources. An active purge of aluminum and silicon from the chemical recovery cycle must be undertaken in order to maintain...

In-situ Surface Modification of Wood with Different Hot Press Platen Metallurgies

Creator:: Freitas, Shawn Robert
Abstract:: As the forest industry moves toward the use of younger trees and production of an increasing number of composite products improving durability has gained importance. Coatings are one of the most widely used methods for improving wood durability because they improve resistance to water penetration, and subsequent shrinking and swelling,...
