Looking for Fish of the Right Age : Developing Predictive Modeling for Submerged Sites Using GIS, Salmon Genetics, and the Human Ecology of Salmon

Creator:: Krier, Jon C.
Abstract:: A major challenge to the study of the peopling of the Americas is that much of the Bering Land Bridge (Beringia), the geographic area that people migrating from Northeast Asia into North America would presumably have passed through, is now submerged due to sea-level rise since the last glacial maximum....

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...

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...

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...

Using a Q Matrix to Assess Students’ Latent Skills in an Online Course

Creator:: Hsieh, Ping-Hung, Chang, Xiaohui, and Olstad, Andrew
Abstract:: Online teaching and learning has become an increasingly important aspect of the educational mission of universities. In person, teachers have time-tested tools for assessing student ability, including a wealth of verbal and nonverbal communication. The online format provides a wealth of data, and promises—but may not yet deliver—useful tools for...

Bacteriophages Significantly Reduce Mortality of Larval Pacific Oysters Crassostrea gigas from Infection by the Pathogenic Bacterium Vibrio coralliilyticus RE98

Creator:: Madison, David B.
Abstract:: Vibrio coralliilyticus (Vcor) is a bacterial pathogen that is well adapted to shellfish hatcheries and is very pathogenic to the larvae of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas. Vcor has been associated with several large scale larval mortality events in the Pacific Northwest that interrupt the supply of seed oysters available...

Mitigation Banks in Washington State: Case Study of Developing the Schold Farm Mitigation Bank

Creator:: Dadisman, Jennifer
Abstract:: Wetland habitats are disappearing at an alarming rate and research is finding that establishment and creation of wetland habitat is generally unsuccessful. Typical mitigation strategies in the past have created multiple small isolated wetlands with little functioning habitat. Within Washington State, guidance and research recommends utilizing mitigation banks to compensate...

Estimating option values and spillover damages for coastal protection : evidence from Oregon’s Planning Goal 18

Creator:: Dundas, Steven J. and Lewis, David J.
Abstract:: Estimating nonmarket benefits for erosion protection can help inform better decision making and policies for communities to adapt to climate change. We estimate private values for a coastal protection option in an empirical setting subject to irreversible loss from coastal erosion and a land-use policy that provides identifying variation in...

Meeting the Night : The Science and Mystery of an Endangered Habitat

Creator:: Sisson, Jill
Abstract:: Night is an extraordinary resource. Unlike air, water, or soil, nighttime is a spatio-temporal phenomenon, which leads to many crucial roles. It provides refuge to wildlife species, triggers hormonal and behavioral responses among a wide variety of organisms, and serves as an essential migratory backdrop for species that navigate by...

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...
