Paleomagnetism and secular variation of Easter Island basalts

Creator:: Isaacson, Laurie Brown
Abstract:: The paleomagnetic history of the volcanic rocks of Easter Island was investigated using standard paleomagnetic techniques. The remanent magnetization of 673 specimens from the three volcanic episodes recognized on the island were measured using a spinner magnetometer. Inclinations, declinations and virtual geomagnetic poles were calculated for each flow. The majority...

Advances in Freshwater Cyanobacterial Genomics

Creator:: Brown, Nathaniel M.
Abstract:: Limnology is undergoing a transition to high-throughput -omic analysis of freshwater bacterial communities. An important first step in making the transition is to characterize several genomes that can be used as references to guide metagenome assembly and analysis. Here I characterize four new freshwater cyanobacterial genomes, a pair of lake...

Agricultural erosion and sediment in the western Willamette Valley as indicated by redistribution of Cesium-137

Creator:: Brown, R. B. (Randall Barber)
Abstract:: Modern agricultural erosion was studied using ¹³⁷Cs from fallout as an indicator of erosion/deposition. The study area was a 285 ha agricultural watershed in the hilly western margin of the Willamette Valley, a high winter rainfall zone in which fall-planted crops are commonly grown. Objectives of the study were (i)...

Physical properties and genetic studies of cryptic plasmids discovered in plant pathogenic pseudomonads

Creator:: Curiale, Michael Steven
Abstract:: Six plant pathogenic isolates of Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea, the causal agent of bacterial blight of Glycine max (L.) Merrill, and one isolate of P. syringae pv. phaseolicola, the causal agent of halo blight of Phaseolus vulgaris L., have been examined for the presence of circular duplex deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)....

A descriptive study of the perceptions of employers, teachers and graduates of Oregon single parent/displaced homemaker programs regarding non-technical employment qualities needed on the job

Creator:: Anderson, GwenEllyn
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to explore the perceptions of employers, teachers and graduates of the Oregon Carl Perkins Single Parent/Displaced Homemaker Programs regarding non-technical employment qualities. The Luft "Non-Technical Employment Qualities Survey Instrument" and open-ended questions were used to elicit personal responses from members of each group for...

The effect of additional special physical education and mainstreaming knowledge and skills on preservice elementary educators' attitudes toward physical education with handicapped and nonhandicapped children

Creator:: Harmon, Gerald R.
Abstract:: The main purpose of this study was to examine the influence of additional content from areas of mainstreaming and adapted physical education on preservice elementary educators attitudes toward teaching nonhandicapped and handicapped children in elementary physical education. To achieve this goal (a) an instrument was constructed to assess the attitudes...

Pharmacological characterization of the porcine atrial A₁ adenosine receptor

Creator:: Leid, Mark
Abstract:: Cardiac A₁ adenosine receptors mediate cardioinhibitory properties of adenosine and structural congeners. The objective of these studies was to increase our understanding of molecular processes involved in ligand interactions with receptors mediating cardioinhibitory effects of adenosine and the interactions of these receptors with guanine nucleotide binding regulatory proteins. Porcine atrial...

Base inclinations in natural and synthetic DNAs

Creator:: Chou, Ping-Jung
Abstract:: A sophisticated computer program is developed to analyze flow linear dichroism data on nucleic acids for individual base inclinations. Measured absorption and linear dichroism data for synthetic AT and GC polymers and natural DNAs are analyzed. The reliability of the program is tested on data for the synthetic polymers, and...
