Monitoring soil nitrate to estimate cover crop nitrogen contribution in organic vegetable production fields

Creator:: Andrews, Nicholas, Sullivan, Dan M., and Pool, Kristin
Abstract:: Organic vegetable growers rely on legume cover crops as an economical source of plant-available N. This research evaluated N contributions to summer vegetable crops by cover crops (CC) residues by monitoring soil nitrate (NO3-N) concentrations during the summer crop growing season. Replicated field plots were established with three CC mixes:...

The Dynamic Field of Genetic Counseling and How Students Can Best Prepare Themselves

Creator:: Bauder, Malia V.
Abstract:: Genetic counseling, a healthcare profession centered on communicating genetic information to patients and helping them understand it, has been rapidly evolving with the development of genetic sequencing and editing technology over the past decades. Consequently, future and current genetic counselors must address societal and ethical implications, as well as historical...

Developing Extension guidance for management effects on ammonia loss: a computer simulation modeling approach

Creator:: Sullivan, Dan M.
Abstract:: Computer simulation models provide insight into ammonia loss processes and the sensitivity of ammonia loss predictions to environmental and management variables. As an example of how a simple computer simulation model can inform the Extension guideline development process, the ALFAM (Ammonia Volatilization from Field-Applied Animal Slurry) model was used to...

Broccoli heat tolerance and varietal evaluation in western Oregon

Creator:: Nagy, Andy, Stone, Alex, Myers, Jim, and Peachey, Ed
Abstract:: With the hot summers of recent years causing significant heat damage to broccoli heads within the Willamette valley, varietal screenings for newer and more heat tolerant varieties became necessary. Most commercially available broccoli varieties are bred for production within milder and more climatically stable regions, such as the Salinas Valley...

A Patient-Centered Approach: Applicability of Harm Reduction Principles in Various Healthcare Settings

Creator:: Bodner, Katherine R.
Abstract:: The public health framework of harm reduction was evaluated in one care setting to determine its potential for use in other fields of healthcare. Qualitative interviews were conducted with 11 clients of the HIV Alliance’s needle exchange program. Analysis of client responses revealed three themes: 1) harm reduction methods work...

Turnover, Memory, Persistence: Four Decades of Ecological Community at Lost Valley

Creator:: Bruno, Mark P.
Abstract:: This study is an ethnographic investigation of residential turnover, organizational memory, and the persistence of Lost Valley, an Oregon ecovillage founded in 1989. Literature on organizational turnover, memory, and persistence is reviewed and integrated with scholarship on intentional communities and ecovillages, generating a theoretical framework for data collection and analysis....

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...

The RECESS Project: The Impact of a Community-Based Recess Intervention on Recess Quality and Student Belonging

Creator:: Bishman, Paige N.
Abstract:: Physical activity and social emotional health among children have become increasingly important for children’s overall development. Recess is a time during the school day for students to have access to physical activity opportunities as well as socialize and interact with their peers. A quality recess, that is age and developmentally...

A decade of tidal wetland development at the Ni-les’tun restoration project on the southern Oregon coast

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher, van de Wetering, Stan, Brophy, Laura, Cornu, Craig, and Tice-Lewis, Maxwell
Abstract:: The Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration project in the Coquille River Estuary in southern Oregon is one of the largest and most well-studied tidal restoration projects on the Pacific Northwest coast. However, ecological data on restoration effectiveness and ecosystem change following restoration are relatively rare for projects more than a few...

Physiological characterization of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae

Creator:: Tornberg, Emma C.
Abstract:: Marine primary production can be modeled and estimated using remotely-observable physiological signatures such as chlorophyll and carbon. Current models are based on strict physiological relationships based on photoautotrophic phytoplankton, and discrepancies between modeled and in situ data may stem from unaccounted-for physiological deviations from photoautotrophy. Mixotrophic phytoplankton can obtain energy...
