1995 Annual Report in Entomology

Creator:: Hilton, Richard, J., VanBuskirk, Philip, D., Westigard, Peter, H., 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.

A physical and chemical characterization of stream water draining three Oregon Coast Range catchments

Creator:: Hale, V. Cody
Abstract:: Few studies have examined both long-term and fine-scale spatial variations in water quality of small streams in the Pacific Northwest. As such, a case study was conducted to determine if current physical and chemical properties of water in three streams located in the Oregon Coast Range differed from historically measured...

Management experiments for high-elevation agroforestry systems jointly producing matsutake mushrooms and high-quality timber in the Cascade Range of southern Oregon

Creator:: Weigand, James F.
Abstract:: Experimental prescriptions compare agroforestry systems designed to increase financial returns from high-elevation stands in the southern Oregon Cascade Range. The prescriptions emphasize alternative approaches for joint production of North American matsutake mushrooms (also known as North American pine mushrooms; Tricholoma magnivelare) and high-quality timber. Other agroforestry byproducts from the system...

Out-of-pile blowdown critical heat flux experiment

Creator:: Moussaoui, Musa A.
Abstract:: In the most challenging nuclear power plant accidents, transient critical heat flux (CHF) is a primary phenomenon that drives peak cladding temperature and ultimately fuel failure. It is not yet determined whether the use of steady-state CHF methods can accurately predict transient CHF under the conditions of a blowdown due...

Experiments and Observations on How Changes in Riparian Forests Affect Light and Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Swartz, Allison G.
Abstract:: Riparian zones are ecotones between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Processes in streams are strongly influenced by riparian forest communities, age, stage and structure. Temperate forests across much of North America, including riparian areas, are recovering from historic land clearing with many stands in the stem-exclusion phase of development in which...

Second nature : domestication as experiment and metaphor in 20th century American psychobiology

Creator:: Blanchard, Nicholas
Abstract:: By 1900 domestication was a promising, if somewhat vexed, subject in biology. Volumes had been written about domestication, but little serious scientific inquiry was directed toward the phenomenon. Expertise lay with practical men, primarily breeders and fanciers. The bulk of scientific commentary on domestication came from anthropologists who derived theories...

Patterns of natural selection and demography in coastal Oregon coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) populations : evidence from neutral and olfactory receptor gene-linked markers

Creator:: Johnson, Marc Aaron
Abstract:: For Pacific salmon, the evolution of local adaptations depends upon the species' propensity to return, or "home", to natal streams at time of reproduction. Pacific salmon use olfactory cues to guide homing behavior, yet little is known about the genetics of olfaction in salmon. In this study, I use putatively...

Genomics of migration : from marine distributions of salmonids to mechanisms of olfactory and magnetic cue perception for natal homing

Creator:: Bellinger, M. Renee
Abstract:: Substantial scientific investment has been directed towards understanding factors that influence distribution patterns and animals' remarkable ability for precise orientation and navigation, yet fundamental gaps in our knowledge remain. In my dissertation, I applied emerging genetic technologies to conduct a top-down and bottom-up investigation of animal movement and cue perception....

Evaluation of the off-flavor in English sole (Parophrys vetulus) using descriptive analysis techniques and consumer testing

Creator:: Geise, Laura Ann
Abstract:: English sole (Parophrys vetulus) is a flatfish found in abundance in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Pacific Northwest's and California's commercial trawl fishery. Stock levels of this fish are at all time highs but there are decreased landings due to low demand and acceptability. With new regulations...

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,...
