Assessing Coastal Community Adaptation Scenarios in the Face of Climate Change : A Tillamook County, Oregon Example

Creator:: Lipiec, Eva
Abstract:: Recent coastal disasters (e.g., Hurricane Sandy, Typhoon Haiyan) and chronic issues (e.g., Florida's "nuisance flooding") provide numerous examples of coastal communities struggling to adapt in the face of climate change impacts. Decision-makers and the public alike must reconcile the lack of "fit" between a rapidly changing environment and the effects...

Influence of commensal microorganisms on Clostridium botulinum type E.

Creator:: Patrick, Lui-sun Kwan
Abstract:: Achromobacter A43 produced a compound inhibitory to the outgrowth of Clostridium botulinum type E spores. The inhibitor could be produced in various laboratory media and the outgrowth of germinated spores was completely inhibited by 1/10th dilution of the A43 spent medium. Germination was not affected. The spores lost refractility in...

The design and development of the wearable health and activity monitor

Creator:: Glover, Neil E.
Abstract:: This work describes the development of an accurate, low-cost, expandable and wearable health and activity monitoring platform. Wearable monitors used to track physical activity are becoming an increasingly popular and effective way to combat our dangerously sedentary lifestyles. Unfortunately most existing wearable solutions are either costly, inaccurate or cumbersome. The...

Loss of rhythmic circadian clock gene expression is associated with decreases in estrogen receptor expression in canine mammary cancer

Creator:: Hughes, Kelly L.
Abstract:: The endogenous circadian clock is an intracellular transcriptional feedback loop timing daily patterns of multiple biological rhythms within a 24-hour period. Disturbance in various rhythms leads to alteration of normal biological processes including cellular proliferation and tumor suppression. Endogenous circadian clock rhythms have been found to be disrupted in breast...

Reynolds Stress Tensor Systems and Applications to Nonuniqueness of Weak Solutions to Fluid

Creator:: Donaghue, Patrick E.
Abstract:: In the 1954 John Nash [1] showed, through use of an iterative scheme of approximate embedding maps, that the sphere S² could be isometrically embedded into a ball of any radius by a C¹ map. In the 1980's M. Gromov [2] generalized Nash's work to the h-principal and convex integration....

Testing of vapor-liquid equilibrium data for thermodynamic consistency

Creator:: Frutiger, Richard Patrick
Abstract:: Redlich and Kister have developed two methods for evaluating thermodynamic consistency of vapor-liquid equilibrium data. These same authors also developed a power series for classifying systems according to the number of coefficients required to define the data. Stockett found it was difficult to classify systems by this method. Macan suggested...

Characterization of thermophilic rod and coccus starter strains used in mozzarella cheese manufacture

Creator:: Faessler, Patrick Charles
Abstract:: The present investigation was undertaken to characterize a number of strains of Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus intended for use by a commercial starter supply company. Thorough characterization of each culture was required in order to combine compatible strains so that their usefulness in Mozzarella cheese manufacture would be maximized....

Temperature and moisture effects on stand establishment of seven winter wheat cultivars and selected progeny (Triticum Aestivum, L em thell

Creator:: Conway, Michael Patrick
Abstract:: Laboratory studies were conducted under different temperature and moisture regimes to evaluate the effects of temperature and moisture on stand establishment and seedling characteristics associated with stand establishment. Percent stand and days to 25% emergence were used as indexes of stand establishment. Seedling characteristics analyzed were: shoot length, coleoptile length,...

Water injection into the seed zone as an aid to emergence of dryland cereals

Creator:: Estes, James Patrick
Abstract:: An adequate stand at the optimum time is an important factor affecting potential yield and soil erosion control. However, obtaining adequate stands of fall planted winter wheat in the dryland areas of the Pacific Northwest is often complicated by marginal seed zone soil moisture. The purpose of this laboratory study...

A comparison of three systems of phenotypic selection for grain yield in three spring barley populations

Creator:: Hayes, Patrick M.
Abstract:: Concerns regarding the most effective means of evaluating segregating generations of spring barley prompted this investigation. Three methods of selection were considered: bulk, pedigree, and single seed descent. F₆ lines derived by each method were grown in a replicated yield trial. The effectiveness of each method was measured in terms...
