Interpretations of reality : cross-cultural encounters of Asian students with healthcare at Oregon State University

Creator:: Barclay, Julie Hanson
Abstract:: Enrollments of international students have increased dramatically in the last several decades. The delivery of health care to these students has become a topic of study for college health care providers and medical researchers across the country. The purpose of this study was to explore how Asian international students cope...

Sharing the land : a 5th and 6th grade curricular unit for Minto-Brown Island Park, Salem, Oregon

Creator:: Hanson, Mette J.
Abstract:: The lack of first-hand experience or knowledge about farming in the general population of the United States is a concern among scientists as many current environmental issues are strongly linked to agriculture. Developing agricultural literacy and an appreciation for our dependance on limited resources is important for preparing future generations...

Characterization of Oxide Growth of Aluminum Alloy 6061 for Nuclear Research and Test Reactors

Creator:: Wei, Youran
Abstract:: Oxide growth is a common phenomenon on aluminum alloy cladding surfaces in nuclear research and test reactors. Without better understanding of oxide growth, excessive oxide build up on the cladding surface reduces heat transfer capability from fuel to coolant and causes safety concerns due to the potential cladding rupture or...

Variability in mesoscale circulation and its effects on zooplankton distribution in the Northern California Current

Creator:: Keister, Julie Eileen
Abstract:: In eastern boundary current upwelling ecosystems, mesoscale circulation features such as eddies and upwelling filaments play a prominent role in the transfer of water and the associated plankton from the productive nearshore to the oligotrophic deep sea. The relationship between mesoscale circulation, zooplankton distributions, and the across-shelf transport of coastal...

DNA based artificial nanostructures : directed assembly of cellulose nanocrystals into advanced nanomaterials

Creator:: Mangalam, Anand Paul
Abstract:: The fabrication of nano-scale devices is a challenging, but potentially important, technology that has drawn a great deal of interest among researchers. Such nanoscale constructions utilizing a bottom-up approach for device building have many foreseeable applications in areas as diverse as miniaturized electronics, sensors, and biomedical devices. One of the...

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...

A 37,000-year record of paleomagnetic and environmental magnetic variability from Burial Lake, Arctic Alaska

Creator:: Dorfman, Jason Michael
Abstract:: Burial Lake sediments from the Noatak Basin in the northwest Brooks Range of Arctic Alaska (68.43°N, 159.17°W, 21.5 m water depth) provide the oldest continuous lacustrine record of paleo-environmental change and paleomagnetic secular variation (PSV) in eastern Beringia. A precise radiocarbon chronology, determined through accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) allows us...

Functional relationships among vegetation, nocturnal insects, and bats in riparian areas of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Ober, Holly K.
Abstract:: Vegetation provides food for many insects, and many insects serve as food for bats. We investigated the linkages among these three trophic levels in riparian areas throughout the Oregon Coast Range by examining the influence of vegetation cover, composition, and structure on the activity of nocturnal insects and bats, the...

The role of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase in the periparturient and ketotic dairy cow

Creator:: Duncan, Jennifer S.
Abstract:: Although the occurrence of ketosis is a postpartum phenomenon, recent studies have focused on the prepartum period as key in the development of the disorder. Indicators of prepartum energy status, such as depressed dry matter intake (DMI) and elevated plasma non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentrations have been associated with the...
