Analysis of laying house mortality in a line of single comb white leghorns

Creator:: Green, Willard Wendell
Abstract:: The Oregon State University Production Line of Single Comb White Leghorns was under selection for increased henhoused egg production from 1947 through 1972. Since henhoused egg production is directly related to mortality, mortality would be expected to decrease over the years if selection was effective. To determine if the mortality...

Rationalization and innovative design of asymmetric organocatalysts through computational investigation

Creator:: Johnston, Ryne Connell
Abstract:: My work on computing complex catalyzed organic transformations reveals that only a few subtle chemical factors, e.g. non-classical hydrogen bonding, (hyper)conjugation and steric effects, common across different catalyst manifolds are critical for catalysis and selectivity. Rational manipulation and exploitation of these factors has led to improved catalyst designs, which has...

A literary discourse on the evolution of gender & sexuality in the first & second waves of feminism : Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "The Yellow Wallpaper" deconstructs established gender roles as Willa Cather's "Paul's Case" reconstructs them

Creator:: Hotard, Tami
Abstract:: The two literary touchstones of Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Willa Cather examined in this thesis anchored a larger discussion of the discourse about gender and sexuality during the First and Second Waves of feminism in America. "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Gilman deconstructed the notion of "femininity" manifested at the turn...

Fisher and logistic discriminant function estimation in the presence of collinearity

Creator:: O'Donnell, Robert P. (Robert Paul)
Abstract:: The relative merits of the Fisher linear discriminant function (Efron, 1975) and logistic regression procedure (Press and Wilson, 1978; McLachlan and Byth, 1979), applied to the two group discrimination problem under conditions of multivariate normality and common covariance, have been debated. In related research, DiPillo (1976, 1977, 1979) has argued...

Analyses of noncanonical DNA structures

Creator:: Khuu, Patricia A.
Abstract:: The structural polymorphic nature of DNA has been long been recognized since the model of the right-handed B-DNA duplex proposed by James Watson and Francis Crick was accepted. Its malleability is thought to be critical in protein recognition and manipulation. In particular, it can form Holliday junctions, four-way DNA structural...

Recent periglacial debris flows from Mount Rainier, Washington

Creator:: Copeland, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Debris flow initiation is controlled by a complex interaction of geology, geomorphology, climate, and weather. In the Cascade Range of Pacific Northwest and mountainous areas globally, patterns of temperature and precipitation are being altered by climate change, which may in turn impact debris flow initiation. Temperature has increased and patterns...

Meteorological conditions associated with rain-related periglacial debris flows on Mount Hood, Oregon and Mount Rainier, Washington

Creator:: Parker, Lauren E.
Abstract:: In November of 2006 an intense rainstorm of tropical origin, known colloquially as the "Pineapple Express," inundated the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, initiating numerous periglacial debris flows on several of the stratovolcanoes in the Cascade Range of Oregon and Washington. These debris flows rapidly aggrade channels, deposit...

The changing glaciers of Mt. Hood, Oregon and Mt. Rainier, Washington : implications for periglacial debris flows

Creator:: Ellinger, Jonathan R.
Abstract:: Mountain glaciers are receding worldwide with numerous consequences including changing hydrology and geomorphology. This study focuses on changes in glacier area on Mt. Hood, Oregon and Mt. Rainier, Washington where damaging debris flows have occurred in glaciated basins. Landsat imagery is used to map debris-free ice on a decadal time...
