Southern Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station : 1977 Annual Report

Creator:: Southern Oregon Agricultural Experiment Station and Oregon State University. Agricultural Experiment Station
Abstract:: This report includes information concerning experimental use of unregistered pesticides or unregistered uses of pesticides. Experimental results should not be interpreted as recommendations for use. Use of unregistered materials or use of any registered pesticides inconsistent with its label is against both Federal Law and State Law.

Improving Safety of the Platform-Train-Interface Through Operational and Technical Mitigation Strategies

Creator:: Anderson, Dylan
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to provide background information and examples of best practices relating to platform-train-interface (PTI) safety. The research and information obtained for this manuscript has been in association with the A-40 project funded by the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) of the National Academies. The purpose...

Foraging Niche Separation of Adélie (Pygoscelis adeliae) and Gentoo (P. papua) Penguins During the Breeding Season at Palmer Station, Antarctica

Creator:: Pickett, Erin
Abstract:: Climate-induced range overlap can result in novel interactions between similar species and potentially lead to competitive exclusion. The Western Antarctic Peninsula is one of the most rapidly warming regions on Earth and is experiencing a poleward climate migration. This transition from a polar to sub-polar environment has resulted in a...

Addressing sodium reduction and pathogen internalization in non-intact whole muscle beef : evaluation of dehydrated collagen and hydrostatic pressure as impact technologies

Creator:: Lowder, Austin Cole
Abstract:: These studies focused on maximizing the nutrition and safety of raw whole muscle beef while minimizing quality and shelf-life alteration. The first study used response surface methodology to predict fluid loss from injected beef strip loins and steaks as influenced by levels of salt and sodium phosphates (SP) in the...

Use of extractable lipofuscin as an age biomarker to determine age structure of ghost shrimp (Neotrypaea californiensis) populations in west coast estuaries

Creator:: Cassidy, Katelyn M.
Abstract:: Determining age in crustaceans is inherently imprecise because they molt periodically and do not retain hard structures throughout their lifespan. Morphological measurements, such as carapace length, are often used to estimate age because methods for direct ageing do not exist. However, variability in individual growth rate and molt frequency can...

Development, evaluation and application of a mixed-family selective breeding method for the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:: Matson, Sean Erik
Abstract:: This dissertation develops mixed family selection for Pacific oysters using marker-based pedigree reconstruction. It focuses on improving the efficiency of parentage assignment, determining the optimum life stage to mix oyster families for rearing and selection, comparing mixed-family and separate-family selective breeding in the field, and applying the mixed method to...

Salmon plasma protein to inhibit protease enzymes and enhance surimi gelation

Creator:: Fowler, Matthew
Abstract:: The ability of salmon plasma protein (SPP) obtained from Chinook salmon at the Klaskanine Fish Hatchery (Astoria, OR) to inhibit protease enzymes found in Pacific whiting (PW) surimi and salmon mince as well as the effect of SPP on the gelation properties of PW surimi under various heating conditions was...

Foraging behavior of the Pacific harbor seal (Phoca vitulina richardii) in the Pacific Northwest and potential impacts of coastal hypoxia on foraging efficiency

Creator:: Steingass, Sheanna M.
Abstract:: In the last decade, the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem has experienced a trend of increased severity of upwelling-driven coastal hypoxia. This thesis strove to examine the potential upper trophic level impacts of moderate and severe hypoxia in the CCLME. Initially I conducted a literature review of Pacific harbor seal...

Ecophysiology of Marine Bivalves : Physiological Rate Processes in Dynamic Environments

Creator:: Gray, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Marine bivalves are globally recognized as ecologically and commercially valuable species and, for over a century, researchers have been studying their feeding, digestion and other related physiological processes. These studies have shown that marine bivalves have complex feeding and particle processing behaviors to maximize growth in dynamic environmental conditions. Additionally,...

Stock Synthesis Assessments of Spatially Structured Fish Populations with an Environmental Driver on Recruitment Distribution : A Simulation Study and Discussion

Creator:: Denson, LaTreese S.
Abstract:: Stock assessments use statistical models and empirical data to re-create the population dynamics of a stock in order to provide estimates of biomass and fishing mortality rates to inform fisheries management. Fish stocks are not uniformly distributed across spatial regions, but stock assessments typically ignore stock spatial structure, for the...
