Variation of the Trowbridge's shrew (Sorex trowbridgii) diet across forest types in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Yates, Margaret E.
Abstract:: Investigating the insectivorous diet of the Trowbridge’s shrew (Sorex trowbridgii) across forest types can illustrate how forest management affects biotic communities. I used DNA metabarcoding methods with ANML primers to identify stomach and intestines contents from shrews caught in pitfall traps in the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest (HJA) and Willamette...

Genomic Resources for Phylogenetics, Species Delimitation, and Geographic Localization of Neotropical Tree Species Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae)

Creator:: Finch, Kristen N.
Abstract:: Biodiversity loss is of global concern, and is due in part to deforestation and high consumer demand for wood and wood products. The neotropical tree species Cedrela odorata (“Spanish cedar” or “cedro”) is economically valuable for its wood and faces threats of overexploitation. Due to strong similarities in wood features...

Learning to Teach Science from a Contextualized Stance

Creator:: L’Heureux, K., Giamellaro, M., Beaudry, M-C., Buxton, C., Ayotte-Beaudet, J-P., and Alajmi, T.
Abstract:: Contextualization is a curricular approach and a learning process in which science content knowledge is intentionally situated within a context where that knowledge can be authentically applied or observed. Many recent science education reforms include contextualization as a central tenet. Our goal in this review was to examine commonalities across...

Conceptual learning gains for face-to-face and asynchronous online course modalities in introduction to materials science

Creator:: Nigon, Nutnicha, Simionescu, Dana, Ekstedt, Thomas W., Koretsky, Milo D., and Tucker, Julie D.
Abstract:: Different educational modalities can affect students in learning challenging engineering concepts. Studies that specifically measure students’ conceptual learning gains have been conducted in face-to-face (F2F) and online modalities, but few direct comparisons have been reported. In this study, we collected data from undergraduate students enrolled in introductory materials science courses...

Creating a Climate for Inclusion in Hospital Settings

Creator:: Tiffin, Rylie G.
Abstract:: In this paper we investigate how hospitals can create a more inclusive climate in their organizations that can foster an environment where all employees and, in turn, patients feel welcome. We ask the question of whether it is leaders or employees that have the agency to create this climate that...

Restoring Ponderosa Pine: Understanding Individual Tree Defenses, Disturbance Responses, and Resilience

Creator:: Johnson, Christal
Abstract:: The aim of this research was to provide forest managers and researchers with a better understanding of individual tree defenses and tree responses to disturbances, within a Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program area. Forest restoration often aims to increase stand-level resistance to uncharacteristic changes, and stand-level resistance begins with tree-level...

Testing the Efficacy and Student Acceptance of a Peer-Review Writing Program in an Online Course

Creator:: Bouwma, Andrew M.
Abstract:: Writing within Discipline is a pedagogical model that aims to engage students in active learning and to develop critical thinking and writing skills within the norms of a particular discipline. However, lack of faculty time for grading writing products impedes its broader implementation. Web based peer review programs have been...

Evolving interest and sense of self in an environmental citizen science program

Creator:: He, Yurong, Parrish, Julia K., Rowe, Shawn, and Jones, Timothy
Abstract:: Citizen science is a growing phenomenon across many branches of environmental science facilitating both increased science literacy and the collection of highly rigorous, longitudinal data. Understanding the motivations of adults to join and remain active in citizen science programs is important as the diversity and abundance of opportunities for public...

Phenotyping Degeneration of the Intervertebral Disc with Principal Component Analysis and K-Means Clustering

Creator:: Chen, Joseph
Abstract:: The human intervertebral disc (IVD) provides support for the vertebral bodies, allowing for movement and load bearing. The IVD can degenerate with age or injury, impeding function and causing chronic pain. Despite disc degeneration affecting over 90% of adults over age 50, and back pain being the leading global cause...

Flour Quality and Artisan Bread

Creator:: Ross, Andrew S.
Abstract:: A technical definition of artisan breads is proposed, based on the concepts of lean formulations, long fermentations, and the use of process as the primary way to adapt to changing flour qualities. The current status of what constitutes refined flour for artisan bread production is presented and a conclusion drawn...
