A Study of Early Holocene Paleoprecipitation Record from Freshwater River Mussel Shell at the Cooper's Ferry Site, Idaho and Their Archaeological Implications

Creator:: Jimenez, Alejandra P.
Abstract:: Studies of δ¹⁸O held in freshwater bivalve shell carbonate are useful for reconstructing paleoclimates and environmental changes and inform interpretations about past human behavior and periods of culture change. Stable isotope analyses (δ¹⁸O) of Margaritifera falcata shells found at the Cooper's Ferry archaeological site located in the lower Salmon River...

Ecology of harlequin ducks in Prince William Sound, Alaska, during summer

Creator:: Dzinbal, Kenneth A.
Abstract:: Harlequin ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) were observed during the summers of 1979 and 1980 in Sawmill Bay, northeast Prince William Sound, Alaska. Harlequins were associated with a short, medium gradient, non-glacial stream (Stellar Creek) also used by salmon. Although harlequins nested along Stellar Creek, they apparently did not establish home ranges...

Effect of a broccoli green manure, soil solarization, and isolates of Verticillium dahliae on Verticillium wilt of agronomic and nursery crops

Creator:: Berlanger, Ingrid E.
Abstract:: Green manures, soil solarization, and long rotations with crops not susceptible to Verticillium wilt are among the disease management tactics currently under investigation as alternatives to chemical fumigation of soil. The effect of a broccoli green manure on soil microsclerotial populations of three isolates of Verticillium dahliae and on Verticillium...

The use of ⁶⁰Co cell survival curves in BNCT research

Creator:: Johnson, Jennifer Elizabeth
Abstract:: The cell survival curve is the only means by which to both qualitatively and quantitatively assess morphologic alterations directly resulting from in vitro irradiation of the cell. A ⁶⁰Co cell survival curve experiment has successfully demonstrated the response of the AtT-20 clone mammalian cell line to the effects of gamma...

The oligocene and miocene geology of the Tillamook embayment Tillamook County, northwest Oregon

Creator:: Parker, Michael J. (Michael John), 1958-
Abstract:: Eleven sedimentary and volcanic rock units are mapped and described in the thesis area, and chronicle the dynamic geologic history of the Tillamook embayment from the Oligocene through the middle Mlocene. The oldest unit is the Zemorrian to early Saucesian Smuggler Cove formation, a bathyal tuffaceous mudstone with some thin-...

Hydrogeologic field investigation and groundwater flow model of the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Craner, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: Elevated groundwater nitrate (NO3 -) concentrations in the Southern Willamette Valley (SWV) caused the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) to declare a Groundwater Management Area (GWMA) in Spring, 2004. To better understand direction of groundwater flow, groundwater age, and nitrate transport pathways of the SWV we developed a steady-state...

Cytokinin antagonists and antibiotics related to nalidixic acid : effects on Phaseolus and Nicotiana callus tissues

Creator:: Marsden, Katherine E.
Abstract:: The effects of five cytokinin antagonists on the growth of cytokinin-autonomous lines of Phaseolus lunatus cv. Kingston, Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Great Northern, and Nicotiana tabacum cv. Wisconsin 38 callus tissues have been compared. The antagonists tested included four N⁴-substituted 4-amino-2-methylthiopyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines bearing the following N⁴ side chains, 4-n-pentyl- (ms²pnN⁴Prp), 4-n-hexyl- (ms²HxN⁴Prp),...

Stoicism, Enkrasia, and Happiness

Creator:: Bowman, John L.
Abstract:: Cicero wrote in Tusculan Disputations that we are born with the seeds of virtue which, if allowed to ripen, would lead us to a happy life (Cicero 227). However, as things are, we find ourselves in a world of "iniquity among a medley of wrong beliefs" that inhibits the ripening...
