Olives in Oregon: Grower Survey, On-Farm Propagation, and Orchard Establishment in a Non-Traditional Growing Region

Creator:: Barker, Tessa A.
Abstract:: Olive production potential in Oregon was researched in a multi-disciplinary approach, including a grower survey, a propagation greenhouse study, and a field study, from 2018 through 2020. The Oregon Olive Grower Survey was designed to collect information relating to orchard establishment and management practices, knowledge and understanding of these practices,...

Markers of adiposity among children and adolescents: implications of the isotemporal substitution paradigm with sedentary behavior and physical activity patterns

Creator:: Loprinzi, Paul D., Cardinal, Bradley J., Lee, Hyo, and Tudor-Locke, Catrine
Abstract:: Background The purpose of this study was to examine the association between daily movement patterns and dual energy X-ray absorptiometry-determined body fat percent (DXA-BF%) among children and adolescents while applying both traditional and novel analytical procedures. Methods Using data from the cross-sectional 2003–2006 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (n = 5607),...

Effects of age and military service on memory and cognitive flexibility in a virtual Morris water maze task

Creator:: Mollusky, Adina J.
Abstract:: This study applied a virtual version of the Morris water maze (vMWM) task to an examination of age-related differences between younger and older participants, and the impact of prior military service in older men on spatial memory and cognitive flexibility. Participants performed the Logical Memory task that included immediate and...

Maternal Depression and Child Health as Predictors of Absenteeism in Preschool Children Eligible to Attend Head Start

Creator:: Longway, Kelly
Abstract:: This study examines how three measures of child health: overall health status, access to health insurance and dental checkup status, predict the likelihood of a child experiencing higher number of absences in children eligible to attend Head Start, and how that association is influenced by the presence of a depressed...

How imperfect can land sparing be before land sharing is more favourable for wild species?

Creator:: Balmford, Ben, Green, Rhys E., Onial, Malvika, Phalan, Ben, and Balmford, Andrew
Abstract:: Two solutions, at opposite ends of a continuum, have been proposed to limit negative impacts of human agricultural demand on biodiversity. Under land sharing, farmed landscapes are made as beneficial to wild species as possible, usually at the cost of lower yields. Under land sparing, yields are maximised and land...

A Randomized Controlled Trial of a Truck Seat Intervention: Part 2-Associations Between Whole-Body Vibration Exposures and Health Outcomes

Creator:: Kim, Jeong Ho, Zigman, Monica, Dennerlein, Jack T., and Johnson, Peter W.
Abstract:: This randomized controlled trial study was conducted to determine whether two different seating interventions would reduce exposure to whole-body vibration (WBV) and improve associated health outcomes. Forty professional truck drivers were randomly assigned to two groups: (i) a control group of 20 drivers who received a new, industry-standard air-suspension seat,...

Leaf-level physiology in four subalpine plants in tephra-impacted forests during drought

Creator:: Watt, Abby J., Fischer, Dylan G., Antos, Joseph A., and Zobel, Donald B.
Abstract:: Ecological impacts of climate change in the Pacific Northwest may hinge on acclimation to drier summers, highlighting the importance of plant physiological studies in forests. Evaluating dominant forest plant species under old-growth and managed forest conditions is similarly important as timber harvest might change microclimates and alter drought effects on...

The Economics of Species Conservation

Creator:: Ando, Amy W. and Langpap, Christian
Abstract:: A quarter of all species around the globe are threatened with extinction; this article reviews research in economics on how best to counter those threats. Normative research has developed useful tools for cost-effectively choosing areas of habitat to protect. Such work has also designed working-lands contracts that can induce efficient...

Writing a Recipe for Teaching Sustainable Food Systems: Lessons from Three University Courses

Creator:: Brekken, Christy Anderson, Peterson, Hikaru Hanawa, King, Robert P., and Conner, David
Abstract:: The sustainability of the food system is at the forefront of academic and policy discussions as we face the challenge of providing food security to a growing population amidst environmental uncertainty and depletion, social disruptions, and structural economic shocks and stresses. Crafting a sustainable and resilient food system requires us...

Regionally consistent Western North America paleomagnetic directions from 15 to 35 ka: Assessing chronology and uncertainty with paleosecular variation (PSV) stratigraphy

Creator:: Reilly, Brendan T., Stoner, Joseph S., Hatfield, Robert G., Abbott, Mark B., Marchetti, David W., Larsen, Darren J., Finkenbinder, Matthew S., Hillman, Aubrey L., Kuehn, Stephen C., and Heil, Clifford W., Jr.
Abstract:: New Paleomagnetic Secular Variation (PSV) data from Fish Lake, Utah, USA, along with previously published regional records, allow us to build an independently dated Western North America PSV stack (WNAM17) from about 35 to 15 ka that quantifies dating and paleomagnetic uncertainties. In February 2014, we recovered a composite 11-m-long...
