Creator:: Jung, Seikyung, Herlocker, Jonathan L., and Webster, Janet G.
Abstract:: Search sessions consist of a person presenting a query to a search engine, followed by that person examining the search results, selecting some of those search results for further review, possibly following some series of hyperlinks, and perhaps backtracking to previously viewed pages in the session. The series of pages...

Creator:: Webster, Janet G., Jung, Seikyung, and Herlocker, Jonathan L.
Abstract:: At Oregon State University (OSU), the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and the OSU Libraries are working together on a project to improve the effectiveness and accessibility of digital information created and collected by academic libraries. This project focuses on making digital resources more accessible through an...

Creator:: Jung, Seikyung, Webster, Janet, Mellinger, Margaret, Frumkin, Jeremy, and Herlocker, Jon L.
Abstract:: Using off-the-shelf search technology provides a single point of access into library resources, but we found that such commercial systems are not entirely satisfactory for the academic library setting. In response to this, Oregon State University (OSU) Libraries designed and deployed LibraryFind, a metasearch system. We conducted a usability experiment...

Creator:: Kaplan, Jonathan Michael
Abstract:: Some authors defending the "hereditarian" hypothesis with respect to differences in average IQ scores between populations have argued that the sorts of environmental variation hypothesized by some researchers rejecting the hereditarian position should leave discoverable statistical traces, namely changes in the overall variance of scores or in variance-covariance relating scores...

Creator:: Shaman, Jeffrey and Day, Jonathan F.
Abstract:: The frequency of moderate to heavy rainfall events is projected to change in response to global warming. Here we show that these hydrologic changes may have a profound effect on mosquito population dynamics and rates of mosquito-borne disease transmission. We develop a simple model, which treats the mosquito reproductive cycle...

Creator:: Sebat, Jonathan L., Colwell, Frederick, and Crawford, Ronald L.
Abstract:: Genomic libraries derived from environmental DNA (metagenomic libraries) are useful for characterizing uncultured microorganisms. However, conventional library-screening techniques permit characterization of relatively few environmental clones. Here we describe a novel approach for characterization of a metagenomic library by hybridizing the library with DNA from a set of groundwater isolates, reference...

Creator:: O’Connor, Casey, Miller, Rick, and Bates, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: The expansion of pion-juniper woodlands the past 100 years in the western United States has resulted in large scale efforts to kill trees and recover sagebrush steppe rangelands. It is important to evaluate vegetation recovery following woodland control to develop best management practices. In this study, we compared two fuel...

Creator:: Batchelor, Jonathan L., Ripple, William J., Wilson, Todd M., and Painter, Luke E.
Abstract:: We assessed the effects of the elimination of livestock in riparian systems at Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge in southeastern Oregon, 23 years after the removal of cattle grazing, using 64 photos taken before grazing was removed compared with later retake photos. Two methods were used for this assessment: (1)...

Creator:: Whitworth, Jonathan L., Hamm, Philip B., and Nolte, Phillip
Abstract:: Russet Burbank, Russet Norkotah, and Shepody tubers infected with Potato virus Y strains (PVYO, PVYN:O, PVYNTN) were tested from storage at 4A degrees C at the initiation of sprouting and then the same tubers were tested again from storage at 4A degrees C seventy eight days later. Samples were taken...

Creator:: Kelly, Samuel M., Jones, Nichole L., and Nash, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: Abstract: Tide-topography interactions dominate the transfer of tidal energy from large to small scales. At present, it is poorly understood how low-mode internal tides reflect and scatter along the continental margins. Here, the coupling equations for linear tides model (CELT) are derived to determine the independent modal solutions to Laplace's...
