A taxonomic revision of Astragalus mokiacensis and allied taxa within the Astragalus lentiginosus complex of Section Diphysi

Creator:: Alexander, J. Andrew
Abstract:: North America, with over 400 species of Astragalus (Fabaceae), is one of three major centers of diversity, all of which comprise the majority of the nearly 1750 species of Astragalus worldwide. One of the most diverse species, Astragalus lentiginosus of Section Diphysi, is a polymorphic complex of over 40 varieties,...

Analysis of ceramic heat exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant

Creator:: Ranasinghe, Jatila
Abstract:: This report presents the analysis of ceramic heat exchangers for use in a combined-cycle, wood-fired power plant. The combined-cycle system investigated is characterized by having a wood-fueled combustor, an indirect-fired gas turbine, and a Rankine steam cycle. The direct use of low-grade fuels, such as wood, in present gas turbines...

Changes in the scholastic background and academic ability of summer school students in the Santa Monica, California, junior high schools is from 1956 to 1962

Creator:: Verge, Arthur Charles
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not change has occurred in the scholastic background and academic ability of students attending the junior high school summer sessions of the Santa Monica Unified School District, California, between the years 1956 and 1962. Applying a Fisher and Yates Table...

Meeting of the magmas : the evolutionary history of the Kalama Eruptive Period, Mount St. Helens, Washington

Creator:: Lieuallen, Athena Erin
Abstract:: Comprehension of eruptive histories is critical in understanding the evolution of magmatic systems at arc volcanoes and may supply evidence to the petrogenesis of intermediate and evolved magmas. Within the 300 ka eruptive history of Mount St. Helens, Washington, the Kalama Eruptive Period, 1479- ~1750 CE was bracketed by interludes...

Synecology of the Monotropoideae within Limpy Rock Research Natural Area, Umpqua National Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Luoma, Daniel L.
Abstract:: Four aspects of the ecology of members of the Monotropoideae (achiorophyllous Ericaceae, referred to here as "monotropes") are presented: (1) a clarified conceptualization of monotrope nutrition based on a detailed literature review, (2) the relationship of monotrope populations to the plant communities of Limpy Rock RNA, (3) a test of...

A Broader Overview and Investigation into Seafood Traceability Developments and the Current Landscape for the US West Coast Seafood Industry

Creator:: Ahlers, Brian L.
Abstract:: Seafood is one of the most diverse and highly traded natural resources worldwide. Widespread evidence of increased seafood fraud and IUU fishing has placed enormous pressure on industry and governments to determine the authenticity, safety, and sustainability of seafood. The recently established US National Ocean Council has addressed several gaps...

Bioenergetic evaluation of diel vertical migration by bull trout

Creator:: Eckmann, Madeleine
Abstract:: I evaluated hypotheses related to growth as a driver of depth use and diel vertical migration by bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in a thermally stratified reservoir. I applied a bioenergetic model to evaluate growth of bull trout in relation to potential patterns of diel depth use by bull trout in...

Supporting children who struggle with self-regulation : the role of early family risk and child care quality

Creator:: Pratt, Megan E.
Abstract:: Children's early self-regulation skills have long-term implications for a variety of academic, social, and health outcomes. Unfortunately, children facing multiple family risk factors (e.g., harsh parenting, economic disadvantage) are more likely to struggle with early self-regulation. Despite early disparities in self-regulation, promising intervention evidence suggests that high quality prekindergarten experiences...

Individual Differences in Retronasal Odor Responsiveness : Effects of Aging and Concurrent Taste

Creator:: Flaherty, Tyler J.
Abstract:: Taste sensitivity has been considered the primary chemosensory factor in studies of chemical senses and ingestive behavior. However, recent research has shown that retronasal olfaction is at least equally important in food preference and selection. Additionally, taste has been shown to modulate perceived intensity of retronasally perceived odors. The objectives...

Strengthening school readiness for children at risk : evaluating self-regulation measures and an intervention using classroom games

Creator:: Schmitt, Sara A.
Abstract:: In recent years, self-regulation has emerged as a foundational skill for academic success and well-being. Unfortunately, many children enter kindergarten without the self-regulation skills necessary to succeed. Children from high-risk backgrounds (e.g., low-income) are particularly vulnerable for difficulties in self-regulation development. Given these documented gaps in self-regulation, it has become...
