Consequences of Influenza A Virus on Pneumococcal Biofilm Formation and Stability in the Absence of Host Factors

Creator:: Nutter, Laura
Abstract:: Streptococcus pneumoniae and Influenza A Virus both primarily infect the upper respiratory tract, with more severe disease occurring during coinfection than would be caused by either pathogen independently. Until recently, characterization of the interactions between these two pathogens has occurred exclusively in the context of a host or using host-derived...

Equity in Community Forestry in the Western US

Creator:: McCaskill, Lauren S.
Abstract:: Community forestry is a decentralized form of forest governance that is widely promoted around the world. In the United States, community forestry is growing as a form of forest management, and exists across a range of ownership and governance models, all with different levels of community participation and access to...

The Fungal Microbiome Associated with Grapevine Trunk Disease in Oregon Vineyards

Creator:: Zimmerman, Jessie
Abstract:: Grapevine Trunk Diseases (GTDs) are caused by a group of fungal pathogens that attack the xylem tissue of mature grapevines worldwide. In the past 30 years, their incidence has increased, both in emerging grape-producing regions, as well as those with an extended history of viticulture. In the same time span,...

For the People: Power Distribution and the Development of Political Identity in State Lands Management

Creator:: Mallory, Gavriela M.
Abstract:: Purposive stakeholder involvement in public lands management has grown in the United States in recent decades as government bodies have initiated advisory groups in addition to public comment modalities of participation. While advisory groups and collaboratives on federal lands have been studied extensively, much less is known about network governance...

Accounting for Transient Dynamics Improves use of Marine Protected Areas as a Reference Point for Fisheries Management

Creator:: Quennessen, Victoria I.
Abstract:: Fisheries management that is based on quantitative assessment has commonly relied on estimating the unfished biomass of a fished stock to compare current and historical population size. Developing predictive models for this requires many years of catch and abundance data. Smaller, new, or mainly recreational fisheries may not have the...

Why Anchor Forests? Exploring a Conceptual Framework for Tribal Leadership in Cross-boundary Forest Governance

Creator:: Jacobson, Meredith A.
Abstract:: In response to the increasing pace and scale of wildfire and forest health challenges, the Intertribal Timber Council (ITC) proposed the creation of “Anchor Forests,” where a tribe would convene surrounding landowners to collaboratively manage the entire landscape, across property boundaries. This emergent concept has sparked conversation but has not...

Scaling the Issue of Changing Disturbance Regimes: Implications of Novel Landscape Conditions for Black Stain Root Disease

Creator:: Bouché, Adam J.
Abstract:: Changes to disturbance regimes resulting from shifts in forest management practices have created novel landscape conditions in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). I analyzed the implications of changes to landscape conditions caused by forest management for the spread of a native root disease: black stain root disease (BSRD) of Douglas-fir. BSRD...

A Computational Investigation of Natural Circulation Effects on Heat Transfer Coefficient and Friction Factor

Creator:: Buskirk, John
Abstract:: The nuclear industry has shown a large interest in natural circulation driven passive cooling systems following the Fukushima nuclear accident. Despite this interest, there is no widely used heat transfer correlation or friction factor correlation developed for natural circulation driven flow. A CFD analysis including grid convergence testing using Fluent...

Modelling of an Array of Floating Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converters with Full Hydrodynamic Coupling and Nonlinear Power Take Off Dynamics

Creator:: Gaebele, Daniel T.
Abstract:: Wave energy is one of the most promising renewable energy sources. Thus, research in this field has increased substantially over the last decade. However, significant costs associated with development and maintenance have so far impeded the implementation of commercially viable projects. Furthermore, the hydrodynamic interactions between water and prototypes meant...

Mid-Nineteenth Century Clay Smoking Pipes from Fort Hoskins (35BE15) and Fort Yamhill (35PO75), Oregon

Creator:: Zentgraf, Diane M.
Abstract:: Over the past 42 years clay smoking pipes have been excavated from two U.S. army posts, Fort Hoskins (35BE15) and Fort Yamhill (35PO75) and curated at Oregon State University. These two forts were established in Western Oregon in 1856 and by 1866 both had been decommissioned. Numerous theses have focused...
