Vegetation-environmental relationships on two clearcuts on the western slopes of the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Egeland, Dawn M.
Abstract:: Douglas-fir and western hemlock growth and stocking were examined on two neighboring clear-cut watersheds in the Western Cascades of Oregon and related to the intensity of burning and logging disturbance, habitat type, soil type, aspect and the influence of percent cover of both invading Ceanothus species and residual Acer circinatum....

The development and application of benthic classifications for coral reef ecosystems below 30 m depth using multibeam bathymetry : Tutuila, American Samoa

Creator:: Lundblad, Emily Ruth
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems are the most diverse on earth, and their subsistence is being threatened by natural and adverse anthropogenic patterns and processes. In an effort to understand and protect these marine environments, several programs have outlined strategies and initiatives. For example, the United States Coral Reef Task Force’s Mapping...

Geographic information systems for coral reef conservation, capacity building, and public education in American Samoa

Creator:: Larkin, Emily M.
Abstract:: Coral reefs around the world face numerous threats, both natural and anthropogenic, including pollution, natural disasters, invasive species, habitat destruction, and destructive methods of fishing. Given enough time, coral can recover from natural disasters, but anthropogenic threats decrease corals’ ability to recover from things such as hurricanes. It is difficult...

If you build it, will they come? Evolution towards the application of multi-dimensional GIS to fisheries-oceanography

Creator:: Vance, Tiffany C.
Abstract:: The development of new technologies in science is a balance between existence and use. There are three versions of this duality – something is built and users come, something is built and users don’t come, and, finally, potential users show up but the ballpark has not yet been built. In...

Applying higher order asymptotics to mixed linear models

Creator:: Lyons, Benjamin
Abstract:: Mixed linear models are a time honored method of analyzing correlated data. However, there is still no method of calculating exact confidence intervals or p-values for an arbitrary parameter in any mixed linear model. Instead, researchers must use either specialized approximate and exact tests that have been developed for particular...

Assessment of the potential for conflict between existing ocean space use and renewable energy development off the coast of Oregon

Creator:: Sullivan, Colleen M.
Abstract:: Oregon's ocean waters are a potential source of wind, wave, and tidal energy; of interest to renewable energy entrepreneurs and to the U.S. government as it seeks to bolster energy security. In order to install technology to capture this energy, however, it may be necessary to mitigate conflict with existing...

GIS modeling of potential marine protected areas in the Northwest Atlantic via biological and socioeconomic parameters

Creator:: Keith, Charles M.
Abstract:: Overfishing of our national marine resources has degraded some of the most productive fishing regions in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean, most notably the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank. These regions may have shifted from productive trophic regimes to a less than optimal state therefore reducing fishers’ catches and associated...

Creation of an efficient protein expression and secretion system in the gram-positive bacterial vector, Streptococcus gordonii

Creator:: Myscofski, Dawn M.
Abstract:: Streptococcus gordonii (S. gordonii) is being developed as a Gram-positive expression vector for the expression of heterologous proteins. This bacterial expression system takes advantage of the natural pathway of protein export and anchoring on the surface of the bacterium. The expression of heterologous proteins relies on the homologous recombination of...

Distribution and habitat associations of the northern pygmy-owl in Oregon

Creator:: Sater, Dawn M.
Abstract:: I conducted acoustic lure surveys of northern pygmy-owls (Glaucidium gnoma) on transects that were systematically placed in forested areas throughout the state of Oregon. My objectives were to determine if pygmy-owls were associated with particular forest types, ecoregions, or with large-diameter dominant overstory trees. I also examined temporal variation in...
