Disputant storytelling in divorce mediation

Creator:: Hansen, Alan R.
Abstract:: This paper investigates the nature of disputants' stories within the context of divorce mediation. Tapes and transcripts of actual mediation sessions from three different sources are scrutinized, utilizing a modified form of conversation analysis known as ethnography of speaking. Several themes emerge from this analysis of disputants' stories: the functions...

Improving the durability of second growth timbers of naturally durable species

Creator:: Cabrera Orozco, Yohanna
Abstract:: While the heartwood of many wood species exhibits excellent resistance to fungal and insect attack, this resistance is sometimes diminished in second-growth material of the same species. The reasons for the reduced durability are unclear, but they may reflect a combination of both higher proportions of sapwood as well as...

Effects of biocide treatment on durability and fungal colonization of teak, western redcedar, and redwood

Creator:: Cabrera Orozco, Yohanna
Abstract:: Treating durable, second-growth or plantation-grown material with supplemental chemicals could improve durability while enhancing the uniformity of the products. To test this hypothesis, the effect of two candidate biocide treatments on the durability of teak, redwood, and western redcedar was assessed in a ground proximity field test established in Hawaii....

A macroscale measurement and modeling approach to improve understanding of the hydrology of steep, forested hillslopes

Creator:: Graham, Christopher Brian
Abstract:: The dominant controls on flow generation in steep, forested hillslopes are poorly understood. This dissertation examined the dominant flow processes operating at the hillslope scale, using a combined macroscale measurement and model development and analysis framework. Irrigation experiments at two steep forested hillslopes were conducted to isolate individual hillslope flow...

Hillslope hydrology : from patterns to processes

Creator:: Tromp-van Meerveld, Hilda J.
Abstract:: This dissertation re-examines the now standard perceptual model of hillslope hydrological response to rainfall, which includes the growth of a saturated wedge at the soil-bedrock interface or impeding layer. It also challenges the notion of bedrock impermeability and the assumption that the pattern of subsurface stormflow is determined by the...

Candidate Genes Associated with Blister Rust Resistance in Whitebark Pine (Pinus albicaulis) Revealed through de novo Transcriptome Assembly and Differential Gene Expression Analysis

Creator:: Bair, Zolton J.
Abstract:: Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) is an iconic North American high-elevation tree species currently threatened by climate change, mountain pine beetle, and white pine blister rust (WPBR), a lethal disease caused by the non-native fungal pathogen Cronartium ribicola. In collaboration with the USDA Forest Service Dorena Genetic Resource Center, germplasm was...

The epidemiology of fractures among adults with severe mental retardation residing in a state developmental center

Creator:: Downs, Steve B.
Abstract:: This retrospective study investigated the incidence, characteristics, and risk factors of bone fracture among a group of 518 adults with severe mental retardation between 25 and 75 years old. Data were collected from a large state developmental center in the Western United States between April 1, 1991 and March 31,...

Visualization, implementation, and application of the Walking Tree heuristics for biological string matching

Creator:: Cavener, Jeffrey Douglas
Abstract:: Biologists need tools to see the structural relationships encoded in biological sequences (strings). The Walking Tree heuristics calculate some of these relationships. I have designed and implemented graphic presentations which allow the biologist (user) to see these relations. This thesis contains background information on the biological sequences and some background...

Genome-enabled discovery and characterization of type III effector-encoding genes of plant symbiotic bacteria

Creator:: Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.
Abstract:: Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...
