Limb Loss as an Indicator of Biotic Resistance Against the European Green Crab (Carcinus maenas) in Coos Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Sims, Kimberly
Abstract:: The presence of predators and competitors can offer biotic resistance against the establishment of non-native species, including the European green crab, Carcinus maenas, (EGC) in the estuary of Coos Bay, Oregon. It has been suggested that limb loss, or autotomy of the EGC will increase in areas that include populations...

Management of incidentally detected heart murmurs in dogs and cats

Creator:: Côté, Etienne, Edwards, N. Joel, Ettinger, Stephen J., Luis Fuentes, Virginia, MacDonald, Kristin A., Scansen, Brian A., Sisson, D. David, and Abbott, Jonathan A.
Abstract:: A dog or a cat has an incidentally detected heart murmur if the murmur is an unexpected discovery during a veterinary consultation that was not initially focused on the cardiovascular system. This document presents approaches for managing dogs and cats that have incidentally-detected heart murmurs, with an emphasis on murmur...

Simulation of membrane heat pump system performance for space cooling

Creator:: Bukshaisha, Ahmad A. and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: Membrane based heat pumps systems have attracted the attention of many research groups as a potentially more environmentally friendly alternative to vapor compression systems for space cooling. Several prototype systems have been developed, with reported claims of Energy Efficiency Ratios (EER) approaching 26. At present, no detailed analysis is publicly...

Seeing the Ocean For the Whales: How Whales Get Lost in the Sea of Human Perceptions

Creator:: McKinnon, Haley
Abstract:: Humans have always been fascinated with whales; from prominent features in mythology, to stories of terrifying monsters on the high seas, to globalized utility, to symbolic wildness and radical environmentalism, to figures and statistics, how have human relationships with whales been understood throughout time? Because humans have a need to...

Impaired epidermal homeostasis in Bcl11bR3S/R3S homozygous mutant mice

Creator:: Kelly, Avalon G.
Abstract:: BCL11B, also known as CTIP2, is a transcription factor which plays a critical role in the regulation and development of many tissues and organ systems, including the skin. A 2019 study by Goos et. al. uncovered a novel point mutation in BCL11B gene that converted the Arginine(R)-3 residue to a...

Investigation of the combined efficiency of a solar/gas hybrid water heating system

Creator:: Karki, Saroj, Haapala, Karl R., and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: In climate regions with large seasonal variations in solar radiation, such as the Pacific Northwest of the United States, a solar thermal energy collector might not economically satisfy year-round domestic water heating demands, requiring an auxiliary unit, such as a natural gas-fired water heater. Previous studies have shown that the...

Party System Institutionalization and Accountability for Corruption in Latin America: The Cases of Brazil and Chile

Creator:: Pinilla, Juan P.
Abstract:: In the wake of the ``third wave'' of democratization, scholars and practitioners were optimistic regarding the ease with which countries could adopt democratic norms and institutions. However, after four decades of democracy, many competitive regimes have not improved government probity or developed strong forms of accountability. Levels of economic and...

Are double trailers cost effective for transporting forest biomass on steep terrain?

Creator:: Zamora-Cristales, Rene and Sessions, John
Abstract:: Transportation of forest biomass on steep terrain involves logistical challenges. Trucks with large single trailers are often unable to travel on forest roads due to their narrowness, tight curves, adverse grades and limited areas to turn around. A shorter trailer must be used but then transportation capacity is limited by...

Reconciling Conflicting Phylogenies in the Origin of Sweet Potato and Dispersal to Polynesia

Creator:: Muñoz-Rodríguez, Pablo, Carruthers, Tom, Wood, John R.I., Williams, Bethany R.M., Weitemier, Kevin, Kronmiller, Brent, Ellis, David, Anglin, Noelle L., Longway, Lucas, Harris, Stephen A., Rausher, Mark D., Kelly, Steven, Liston, Aaron, and Scotland, Robert W.
Abstract:: The sweet potato is one of the world’s most widely consumed crops, yet its evolutionary history is poorly understood. In this paper, we present a comprehensive phylogenetic study of all species closely related to the sweet potato and address several questions pertaining to the sweet potato that remained unanswered. Our...

The Viability of Container-Based Sanitation as a Tool for Sanitation Coverage in Urban Haiti

Creator:: VanRiper, Froggi Ramona
Abstract:: Haiti is far from achieving the UN goal of sanitation access for all; 20% Haitians have no sanitation access, and less than 0.1% of urban excreta is safely managed. Container-Based Sanitation (CBS) may be a key tool for achieving equitable sanitation coverage in Haiti’s cities. CBS is a sanitation strategy...
