    Dakessian, Drew R.
    Abstract:
    Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), the most common childhood neurological disorder in the United States, also affects grown women. But girls with ADHD, who tend towards symptoms of inattentiveness, often go undiagnosed until young adulthood.

    Klick, Jimmy
    Abstract:
    Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae) are small invasive flies that in the past five years (2009-2014) invaded berry and stone fruit production regions in Europe and the Americas. Evolutionary adaptations, biological traits, and anthropogenic factors have contributed to its current status as a global pest. Females oviposit eggs into ripe...

  • Understory vegetation response and nitrogen cycling following cutting of western juniper

    Creator:
    Bates, Jonathan D.
    Abstract:
    Since the late 1880's western juniper has expanded in range and increased in density in sagebrush-bunchgrass, riparian, and forested plant communities of the Pacific Northwest. Succession to western juniper woodland has been shown to reduce the productivity and diversity of the understory component, result in concentration of soil nutrients beneath...

  • Modeling phosphorus sequestration and release in an Upper Klamath Basin wetland

    Creator:
    Mulford, Emily L.
    Abstract:
    Upper Klamath Lake (UKL) and Agency Lake (AL) in southern Oregon are both hypereutrophic, in large part due to natural and anthropogenic loading of phosphorus (P), resulting in annual blooms of blue-green algae. Reduction of P loading to the lake is considered crucial to reduce the blue-green algae blooms, maintain...

  • Real-time radioxenon measurement using a Compton-suppressed well-type phoswich detector for nuclear explosion monitoring

    Creator:
    Alemayehu, Bemnet
    Abstract:
    Radioxenon detection is a technique used to monitor nuclear explosion and verify the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). Because of an ultra-low concentration of radioxenon at radioxenon monitoring stations, radioxenon detection systems must have high sensitivity. This sensitivity is measured in terms of detector's minimum detectable concentration (MDC). It is required...
