Relationships and Expectations for Educational Achievement of Foster Youth

Creator:: Calvert, Robert C. (Robert Christian)
Abstract:: Youth in foster care often perform at lower levels academically than those not in foster care. Prior research on the nature of the relationships that affect former foster youth's educational path has been inconclusive. Though it is widely believed that positive relationships with faculty, staff and peers is beneficial for...

A modeling and empirical study of a novel bimodal natural gas internal combustion engine with fuel compression capability

Creator:: Elgin, Robert C., III
Abstract:: Given the current abundant supply and cheap price of natural gas (NG) in the United States, there is a significant opportunity to use this fuel for transportation. However, there are few fueling stations for consumers. To address this need, a dual-mode engine has been developed where in one mode all...

A study of the effectiveness of using distance education to present training programs to Extension Service Master Gardener trainees

Creator:: Rost, Robert C.
Abstract:: Despite the availability of distance education technology, Oregon State University Extension Service educators have made limited use of this equipment for delivery of educational programs to clients of the state's 36 county Extension Service offices. Some Extension educators may be hesitant to use distance technology because they are unsure whether...

Quantitative trait loci mapping of yield, its related traits, and spike morphology factors in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Gaynor, Robert C.
Abstract:: Increasing grain yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a challenging task, because yield is a complex trait controlled by many genes and highly influenced by environmental factors. The genetic control of yield components and other traits associated with yield may be less complex and thus more manageable for breeding....

Consumer preferences for seafood information attributes

Creator:: Fonner, Robert C.
Abstract:: Changes in consumer preferences have created a need for developing differentiated and higher valued seafood products. Providing consumers with more information about seafood products at the time of purchase has been suggested as a way of differentiating seafood and promoting healthy fisheries. A discrete choice experiment conducted at high-end grocery...

The neustonic fauna in coastal waters of the northeast Pacific: abundance, distribution, and utilization by juvenile salmonids

Creator:: Brodeur, Richard D., Pearcy, William G., Mundy, Bruce C., and Wisseman, Robert W.
Abstract:: The surface-layer zone, occupying the upper 20 cm of the water column, represents a unique oceanic environment. A diverse assemblage of organisms occupies this zone, either in an obligate or facultative manner (Zaitsev 1970, Hempel and Weikert 1972, Cheng 1975, Peres 1982). Certain animals show morphological or biochemical adaptations to...

LidarBoX: a 3D-printed, Open-source Altimeter System to Improve Photogrammetric Accuracy for off-the-shelf Drones

Creator:: Bierlich, K. C., Wengrove, Drummond, Bird, Clara N., Davidson, Robert, Chandler, Todd, Torres, Leigh G., and Cantor, Mauricio
Abstract:: Drones provide a privileged birds’-eye view for collecting high-resolution imagery formorphometric and behavioral sampling of animals. Biologically meaningful measurements extracted from overhead images require an accurate estimate of altitude, but current commercial drones include inaccurate barometer estimates. Recent proposals for coupling altimeter systems to drones have provided customized, open-source solutions,...

Best practices for assessing forage fish fisheries-seabird resource competition

Creator:: Sydeman, William J., Thompson, Sarah Ann, Anker-Nilssen, Tycho, Arimitsu, Mayumi, Bennison, Ashley, Bertrand, Sophie, Boersch-Supan, Philipp, Boyd, Charlotte, Bransome, Nicole C., Crawford, Robert J. M., Daunt, Francis, Furness, Robert W., Gianuca, Dimas, Gladics, Amanda J., Koehn, Laura, Lang, Jennifer W., Logerwell, Elizabeth, Morris, Taryn L., Phillips, Elizabeth M., Provencher, Jennifer, Punt, André E., Saraux, Claire, Shannon, Lynne, Sherley, Richard B., Simeone, Alejandro, Wanless, Ross M., Wanless, Sarah, and Zador, Stephani
Abstract:: Worldwide, in recent years capture fisheries targeting lower-trophic level forage fish and euphausiid crustaceans have been substantial (∼20 million metric tons [MT] annually). Landings of forage species are projected to increase in the future, and this harvest may affect marine ecosystems and predator-prey interactions by removal or redistribution of biomass...
