Seasonal movement, residency, and migration patterns of Wilson's Snipe (Gallinago delicata) across the annual cycle in the Willamette Valley of Oregon.

Creator:: Cline, Brittany B.
Abstract:: Studies of avian movement ecology afford essential insights regarding species' life histories, population dynamics, habitat and resource requirements, and other ecological relationships. While it is widely recognized that events in different stages of the annual cycle have important implications for processes in avian ecology, evolution, and conservation, challenges associated with...

The characteristics and dynamics of snags in Douglas-fir forests of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Cline, Steven Paul
Abstract:: Snags, standing dead trees, are used by many species of wildlife. Despite the importance of snags their basic ecology remains unknown. Some forest management practices eliminate snags from the forest with a concomitant effect upon snag-dependent wildlife. My objective was to describe the density, spatial distribution, and physical character of...

Investigating Local Energy Compensation of Adjacent RNA Secondary Structures in the bpRNA-1m Database

Creator:: Cornwell-Arquitt, Robert L.
Abstract:: Non-coding ribonucleic acid (ncRNA) is of interest for its diverse roles in cell and viral biology. RNA molecules vary greatly in terms of size, structure, and function. In recent years, the modification of existing RNA structures has been used for biochemical methods of enormous impact including CRISPR and RNAi methods....

Evaluating Fish Rescue as a Drought Adaptation Strategy for Imperiled Coho Salmon: A Life-Cycle Modeling Approach

Creator:: Beebe, Brittany A.
Abstract:: Projected intensification of drought as a result of climate change may reduce the capacity of streams to rear fish, exacerbating the challenge of recovering ESA-listed salmon populations. Without management intervention, some stocks will likely go extinct as stream drying and fragmentation reduce juvenile survival to unsustainable levels. To offset drought-related...

Sovereignty Under Arrest? Public Law 280 and its Discontents

Creator:: Cline, Sarah N.
Abstract:: Law enforcement in Indian Country has been characterized as a “maze of injustice”—one in which offenders too easily escape and victims are too easily lost (Amnesty International, 2007). Tribal, state, and federal governments have recently sought to amend this through the passage of the Tribal Law and Order Act (TLOA)...

Optimization of Geologic Carbon Sequestration: Effect of Flowrate on Nonwetting Phase Connectivity

Creator:: Davis, Brittany R.
Abstract:: Atmospheric carbon reduction is arguably the most crucial facet among efforts to mitigate climate change. The Fifth International Panel of Climate Change report emphasizes a worldwide goal of maintaining global temperature elevation less than 1.5°C above pre-industrial temperatures. This report also acknowledges without the proper utilization of counteractive emission strategies...

Spatiotemporal distribution of the anti-diabetic drug, metformin, in the lower Columbia River and its effect on phytoplankton growth

Creator:: Cummings, Brittany M.
Abstract:: Water quality impacts both human and ecosystem health. Many pharmaceuticals and personal care products are considered contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) due to their bioactive properties. Among these, metformin—the most commonly prescribed drug for treatment of type 2 diabetes—has been reported at high concentrations (μg L⁻¹) in stream, lake, and...

Growth, Condition, and Survival of Larval Arctic Cod and Walleye Pollock in a Warming Ocean

Creator:: Koenker, Brittany L.
Abstract:: Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) is an ecologically significant species that plays a critical role channeling energy throughout the Arctic marine food web. Arctic cod is uniquely adapted to occupy ice edge habitats, however, a basic understanding of its larval physiology and habitat requirements is lacking due to widespread sea ice...

Function of Oregon Estuaries to Juvenile Fishes, with Focus on Juvenile Rockfishes (Sebastes spp.) in Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Schwartzkopf, Brittany D.
Abstract:: The role that anthropogenic and natural habitats in estuaries play in long-term population trends for Oregon’s nearshore marine fishes is poorly understood, in part due to limited temporal sampling. One important nearshore marine group is northeastern Pacific rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), which are highly diverse, with around 96 documented species, and...
