Placement of felled western juniper trees over a stream channel : Effects on water temperature, streamside willow shrubs, and redband trout

Creator:: Matney, Casey A.
Abstract:: All streams in Oregon that are inhabited by salmon and trout have a statemandated water temperature standard. However, temperatures of many streams, especially during summer months, exceed the seven-day average maximum temperature parameter (200 C for redband trout inhabited streams) accepted by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. To date,...

Effects of environmental variables and grazing on planted willow (Salix boothii Dorn) cuttings

Creator:: Lowson, Katherine L.
Abstract:: The influence of streambank location and timing of herbivory on success of planted Booth's willow (Salix boothii Dorn) cuttings along a Rosgen C5-type stream in an eastern Oregon meadow was determined. Willow cuttings were planted on two morphological locations (i.e. point bar and floodplain) in May of 2002 and 2003....

Interspace/under-canopy foraging patterns of beef cattle in sagebrush communities : implications to sage-grouse nesting habitat

Creator:: France, Kevin A.
Abstract:: Livestock grazing has been indirectly related to sage-grouse (centrocercus urophasianus) declines in the western United States and southern Canada; however, there is a lack of scientific research that directly relates the two. Our objective was to investigate the influence of livestock herbivory on sage-grouse nesting habitat by determining the spatial...

Factors influencing nest success of greater sandhill cranes at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: I developed a priori hypotheses and used logistic regression to model Greater Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis tabida) nest success in relation to weather, habitat and management variables for cranes breeding at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (MNWR) in southeast Oregon. My primary interest was to investigate the effects of habitat conditions...

Exploration of the feasibility of developing a winter hardy 'Marion' blackberry through genetic engineering

Creator:: Meng, Rengong
Abstract:: Experiments focusing on plant growth regulators’ concentrations and combination, mineral salt formulations and TDZ pretreatment formations were conducted to optimize in vitro shoot regeneration from leaf and petiole explants of 'Marion' blackberry. Optimum shoot formation was obtained when stock plants were incubated in TDZ pretreatment medium for three weeks before...

Effect of weather variation on economic results from grasshopper control tactics in Chad : a partial validation of GHLSIM

Creator:: Sheikh, Allah Ditta
Abstract:: Agricultural production in the Sahelian region of Africa is among the lowest in the world. Cyclical infestations of locusts and grasshoppers have contributed to this low productivity. The infestations appear to be triggered by heavy rainfall at the beginning of a crop season after extended drought. Because locusts and grasshoppers...

The size of the Oregon coastal salmon runs in the mid-1800s

Creator:: Meengs, Chad C.
Abstract:: Increasing the abundance of salmon in coastal Oregon rivers and streams is a high priority public policy objective. Salmon runs have been reduced from pre-development conditions (typically defined as the 1 850s), but it is unclear by how much. Considerable resources have been allocated to restoring salmon runs, but it...

Of dragons, palaces, and gods : a mormon perspective on C. S. Lewis

Creator:: Garrett, Christopher Edward
Abstract:: During his lifetime C. S. Lewis chose to speak to Christians in plain and simple language that they could understand. Lewis taught and defended truths that he felt were discernible through reason. Morality, free will, and the divinity of Jesus Christ were fundamental to his core beliefs and teachings. His...

Evaluation of genetic diversity in wild populations of black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.)

Creator:: Dossett, Michael
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred, in part, by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are...
