  • Ecological relation of sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout in the Deschutes River, Oregon

    Creator:
    Zimmerman, Christian E.
    Abstract:
    Sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are known to exist in many rivers throughout the Pacific Rim. Whether sympatric steelhead and resident rainbow trout are polymorphisms within a single gene pool or two reproductively isolated populations has significant implications concerning the study and conservation of this polytypic species....

  • Quantum and Classical Simulation of Electronic Transport at the Nanoscale

    Creator:
    Gruss, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    Time-dependent electronic transport is increasingly important to the state-of-the-art device design and fabrication. The development of nanoscale sensing, the harnessing and control of structural fluctuations, and the advancement of next-generation materials all require a treatment of quantum dynamics beyond the level of traditional methods and a more nuanced approach to...

  • Born to run? Integrating individual behavior, physiology, and life histories in partially migratory steelhead and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

    Creator:
    Sloat, Matthew R.
    Abstract:
    Steelhead and rainbow trout are common names for marine-migratory (anadromous) and freshwater-resident forms of Oncorhynchus mykiss, a partially migratory salmonid fish. Anadromous and resident forms are sympatric and can produce offspring with a life history different from their own (i.e., steelhead parents can produce rainbow trout offspring and vice versa)....

  • Nonlinear behavior of thermal and ion transport at the nanoscale

    Creator:
    Sahu, Subin
    Abstract:
    Functional control at the nanoscale forms the foundation of biological systems. These work at the cellular level by manipulating ions and molecules. Nanoscale devices that give functional control at this scale are also becoming an important component in diverse fields such as electronics, medicine, engineering, and manufacturing. Moreover, scientific advances...

  • The evolutionary stability of partial migration

    Creator:
    Ohms, Haley A.
    Abstract:
    Natural selection, in its most basic form, is described as a process in which traitsincrease or decrease in frequency depending on their fitness, and only the trait withthe highest fitness will remain in the population. Yet, populations rarely have asingle `optimal' trait. The way natural selection maintains this observed variationwithin...

  • Genomic Resources for Phylogenetics, Species Delimitation, and Geographic Localization of Neotropical Tree Species Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae)

    Creator:
    Finch, Kristen N.
    Abstract:
    Biodiversity loss is of global concern, and is due in part to deforestation and high consumer demand for wood and wood products. The neotropical tree species Cedrela odorata (“Spanish cedar” or “cedro”) is economically valuable for its wood and faces threats of overexploitation. Due to strong similarities in wood features...

  • Efficient Private Matching for Private Databases

    Creator:
    Trieu, Thi Ni Ni
    Abstract:
    Private matching (PM) is a key cryptographic primitive in secure computation that allows several parties to jointly compute some functions depending on their private inputs. Indeed, this primitive has many practical applications. For instance, in online advertising, two companies may wish to find their common customers for a joint marketing...

  • Multicellular monolayer’s self-organization under external stimuli

    Creator:
    Li, Guanyu
    Abstract:
    Cell signaling under external stimulation is a critical mechanism that governs many biological processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration, and cell apoptosis, etc. For multicellular organisms, the ability to synchronize heterogeneous individual cellular responses through intercellular communication is crucial to maintain normal functionality. However, even though the biological pathways...
