Ecology and distribution of red crossbill call types in western Oregon

Creator:: Centanni, Caleb
Abstract:: Red Crossbills (Fringillidae: Loxia curvirostra), irruptive finches which feed on conifer seeds, have long presented an evolutionary conundrum. Variable morphology and vocalizations in the species can be classified into several flight call types, which may be discrete lineages. The key conifer hypothesis suggests that each type diverged by specializing on...

Assessing how morphology of female desert bighorn sheep varies with climate in the Mojave Desert of California

Creator:: Torres, Jose A.
Abstract:: Understanding how spatial variation in climate correlates with phenotypic variation among individuals may offer insights about local adaptation, population performance, and species’ response to climate change. Desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni) in the Mojave Desert of southern California experience a broad range of temperature and aridity, inhabiting mountain ranges...

Investigating Carrier Temperature in LED Quantum Well Driven Below the Turn-On Voltage

Creator:: Jeliazkova, Michelle
Abstract:: Electron behavior in semiconductor materials critically determines electronic applications. Previous research has shown carrier temperature higher than the lattice temperature of LEDs due to energy differences in the quantum well. Study of these findings requires a novel set-up to dig out weak signal in a thermal-noise filled environment; analytical methods...

Fifty years of change in a Pacific Northwest winter forest bird community

Creator:: Clements, Nolan
Abstract:: North American bird populations have declined throughout the past half century. The majority of studies quantifying these declines have focused on spring and summer breeding birds; not the season of scarcity, winter. We re-surveyed 7 large study plots in Douglas fir forests initially surveyed in winter during the late 1960s...

Evaluating the response of bees to visual attractants in resource-poor environments

Creator:: Parvin, Lucas
Abstract:: Bee populations are declining around the globe, while the need for their pollination services is increasing with growing food demands by an expanding population. There is a need for innovative practices to increase pollination in agricultural environments without harming wild bee populations. However, the use of artificial visual attractants has...

Modeling the effect of longwave radiation from solar panels on soil moisture

Creator:: Shepard, Laurel A.
Abstract:: Agrivoltaics, which integrates photovoltaic power production with agriculture in the same plot of land, has the potential to reduce land competition and crop irrigation. To optimize agrivoltaic systems for crop growth, energy pathways must be characterized. While solar panels shade the crops, they also emit longwave radiation. At the end...

Diversity and Psychology: Promoting Inclusive Perceptions of Disability

Creator:: Williams, Hannah M.
Abstract:: The way that an individual defines and understands the term “disability” has the potential to affect how they view and interact with people with disabilities. Previous research suggests that classroom interventions and frequent interactions with people who have disabilities can be effective in promoting the social model of disability and...

Isolating Non-Blackbody Radiation Spectra from Low-Bandgap LEDs near Zero Bias

Creator:: Teo, YiPeng
Abstract:: The study of carrier transport in light-emitting diode (LED) has been researched extensively in the past. However, most studies were implementing voltages above the turn-on voltage of the LED. Research on LEDs well below the turn-on voltage threshold is comparatively scarce for good reasons. When the supply voltage is below...

The RECESS Project: The Impact of a Community-Based Recess Intervention on Recess Quality and Student Belonging

Creator:: Bishman, Paige N.
Abstract:: Physical activity and social emotional health among children have become increasingly important for children’s overall development. Recess is a time during the school day for students to have access to physical activity opportunities as well as socialize and interact with their peers. A quality recess, that is age and developmentally...

The Effects of Providing a Means of Independent Mobility on Social and Cognitive Development in Young Children with Disabilities

Creator:: Gottfried, Emma K.
Abstract:: Modified ride-on cars are provided to children as a means of independent mobility. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine how the provision of modified ROCs to children with disabilities affects the development of problem-solving and personal-social skills. Methods: The amount of time children spent driving the modified...
