The higher classification of the Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea)

Creator:: Warren, Andrew D.
Abstract:: A comprehensive tribal-level classification for the world's subfamilies of Hesperiidae, the skipper butterflies, is proposed for the first time. Phylogenetic relationships between tribes and subfamilies are inferred using DNA sequence data from three gene regions: 943 bp of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) (in the mitochondrial genome), 739 bp of...

“I couldn’t bring myself to say it” : challenging heteronormativity in teacher education programs

Creator:: Ollivier, Amélie G.
Abstract:: School is a hostile environment for many LGBTQ youth. Teachers participate, consciously or unconsciously, in perpetuating oppressive heteronormative expectations in the classroom both through the overt and covert curriculum. Yet, pre-service teachers are under-trained about questions related to gender and sexuality during their teacher preparation. This qualitative study explores the...

Fighting to Cooperate: Litigation, Collaboration, and Water Management in the Upper Deschutes River Basin

Creator:: Satein, Hannah R.
Abstract:: Communities across the American West face new challenges in water management: historical management structures devised to prioritize economic uses, predominantly agriculture, are being tasked with adapting to address growing and changing populations, unaddressed species and ecosystem needs, and climatic changes. Scholars in the field of collaborative governance posit that collaborative...

Habitat Use of Female Columbian Black-tailed Deer in Western Oregon

Creator:: Schrautemeier, Timothy J.
Abstract:: Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) are important economically, ecologically, and culturally as an indigenous species in western Oregon. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) observed declines in black-tailed deer populations since the late 1980’s and attributes these declines to reduction in quality and availability of habitat, following the...

Spatial relationships for vegetation in restored and reference salt marshes in the Salmon River Estuary, Oregon

Creator:: Chellew, Megan
Abstract:: In this thesis, the spatial patterns of vegetation and soils of reference and restored tidal marshes were compared to determine the extent to which restored sites differ from the reference site after 40 years of restoration. Vegetation surveys of 1m x 1m plots were conducted along previously-established transects of salt...

Functional Comparison of Longline Oyster Aquaculture and Eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) Habitats Among Pacific Northwest Estuaries, USA

Creator:: Clarke, Larissa M.
Abstract:: Understanding the ecological role of Pacific oyster aquaculture (Crassostrea gigas) and eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) as important habitats in US Pacific Northwest estuaries is critical for management and regulatory decisions. The oyster aquaculture industry is currently restricted by regulations concerning impacts of their activities on Z. marina. This seagrass is...

Riverscape genetics of Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Chinook salmon) in Siletz River, OR

Creator:: Davis, Chanté D.
Abstract:: Traditional analysis in population genetics evaluates differences among groups of individuals and, in some cases, considers the effects of distance or potential barriers to gene flow. However, many forces may shape genetic variation of organisms in riverine systems. Similarly complex research linking habitat heterogeneity and configuration to genetic structure has...

An Agent-based Evacuation Modeling of Underground Fire Emergency

Creator:: Xu, Yue
Abstract:: Increasingly congested surface transportation network in urban areas and grow-ing land values make underground transportation systems more attractive for high-ways (i.e., tunnels) and metro system compared to other options [1]. An underground transportation system can preserve the land above for recreational parks, commer-cial buildings, residential homes, or other purposes while...

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...

Assessing alternatives for fuel reduction treatment and Pacific marten conservation in the southern Cascades and northern Sierra Nevada

Creator:: Credo, Kevin
Abstract:: Forest managers are challenged to restore resilience to forests with an elevated risk of stand-replacing fire by using mechanical thinning and prescribed fire. Implementation of these methods can be constrained by mandates to conserve sensitive wildlife species like the Pacific marten (Martes caurina). Martens avoid simplified forest stands created by...
