A case analysis of Oregon's Willamette River Greenway Program

Creator:: Bauer, Webb Sterling
Abstract:: The Willamette River Greenway Program was created by an act of the Oregon Legislature in 1968 and modified by a second act in 1973. The purpose of the program was to protect the natural environment of the river from approximately the foot of the Cascade Range near Eugene, north to...

Sources of variability in daily physical activity for secondary students with and without developmental disabilities

Creator:: Kim, So-Yeun
Abstract:: Generalizability theory was used to examine sources of variability in daily physical activity levels of secondary students with and without developmental disabilities (DD), and to determine minimum number of days required for monitoring their typical physical activity levels. Sixteen participants with DD (M = 16.7 years, SD = 2.7 years),...

Designing An Effective Approach to Science Teacher Educator Professional Development : Lessons from the Science Education Faculty Academy

Creator:: St. Clair, Tyler L.
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of a set of three manuscripts exploring features of effective professional development (PD) for science teacher educators. Literature about context-specific PD for science teacher educators is sparse. The first manuscript, a literature review, outlines theoretical lenses through which PD can be understood, the features of effective PD,...

Biological interrelationships between the Ambrosia beetle Xyleborus dispar with its symbiotic fungus Ambrosiella hartigii

Creator:: French, John Richard Joseph
Abstract:: Biological interrelationships between the ambrosia beetle Xyleborus dispar (F.) (Coleoptera:Scolytidae) with its symbiotic fungus, Ambrosiella hartigii Batra (Fungi Imperfecti) were investigated in western Oregon. Postdiapause adults of X. dispar collected in March through June with rotary nets, and excised from overwintered and newly attacked host material, produced a single generation...

Foraging ecology, diving behavior, and migration patterns of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina richardii) from a glacial fjord in Alaska in relation to prey availability and oceanographic features

Creator:: Womble, Jamie N.
Abstract:: Understanding the movement behavior and foraging strategies of individuals across multiple spatial and temporal scales is essential not only for understanding the biological requirements of individuals but also for linking individual strategies to population level effects. Glacial fjords scattered throughout south-central and southeastern Alaska host some of the largest seasonal...

In vivo detoxification of acetic acid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Ding, Jun
Abstract:: The studies described in this thesis were motivated by ongoing efforts to develop lignocellulosic biomass as an efficient and practical source of renewable energy. Enormous problems complicate these efforts to reduce reliance on greenhouse gas-generating fossil fuels. Simply obtaining the fermentable sugars available in the cellulose and hemicellulose components of...

Interactions between microbial dynamics, water flow, and solute transport in unsaturated porous media

Creator:: Yarwood, Rockie R.
Abstract:: Bioremediation in the vadose zone is unpredictable because of poor understanding of factors influencing microbial growth in this environment. A lab-scale experimental system was developed to examine, noninvasively, interactions between microbial growth, water flow, and solute transport in unsaturated porous media. Measurements of microbial colonization, and its impact on hydrology,...

Identification of Endogenous and Exogenous Pararetroviruses in Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) and Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Diaz Lara, Alfredo
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest (Oregon and Washington in the United States and British Columbia in Canada) is one of the major producers of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) and blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) in the world. The expansion of growing area with these crops has resulted in the emergence of new...

Molecular genetic analysis of vaccinia virus genes which confer resistance to alpha-amanitin

Creator:: Tamin, Azaibi
Abstract:: Several laboratories have shown that the VV replication cycle is dependent on the host cell nucleus. The basic biological observation is that if the host cell nucleus is physically removed by cytochalasin B-mediated enucleation, functionally inactivated by UV-irradiation, or selectively blocked with a-amanitin, the results are the same: W is...

Proteolytic activity in Pacific shrimp (Pandalus jordani) processing waste; distribution, effects on muscle proteins, and partial characterization

Creator:: Decker, Carl David
Abstract:: Proteases present in shrimp processing waste are factors in the technology of shrimp. The distribution of proteolytic activity in shrimp parts was determined using hemoglobin and casein as substrates. The effects of various parameters upon activity of proteases in the inedible portion were determined using muscle protein as a substrate....
