Relative influence of trans-Pacific and regional atmospheric transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), USA

Creator:: Lafontaine, Scott
Abstract:: The relative influences of trans-Pacific and regional atmospheric transport on measured concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), PAH derivatives [Nitro- (NPAH) and Oxy-(OPAH)], organic carbon (OC), and Particulate Matter (PM) less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM₂.₅) were investigated in the Pacific Northwest, USA in 2010-2011. Ambient high volume PM₂.₅...

Strategic investments in agricultural industries and Oregon's economic development

Creator:: Koong, Dennis T
Abstract:: This research is concerned with the current debate among Oregonians on how to improve the standard of living and accelerate economic development in Oregon. The main question is what economic activities make Oregon, and regions within Oregon grow? To find out where Oregon's economic strength and weaknesses lie, first we...

Introgression and Evaluation of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Conferring Resistance to Quizalofop-p-ethyl Herbicide

Creator:: Richter, Colette M.
Abstract:: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops in the world supplying about 18.8 percent of the world's caloric energy supply and 20 percent of the world's protein. In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), over one million hectares of wheat are grown every year. Wheat production is typically...

Nuclear and chloroplast diversity of Pacific Northwest wheat (Triticum aestivum) breeding germplasm

Creator:: Edwards, Melanie Love
Abstract:: Wheat breeders must effectively maintain and manage existing genetic diversity in order to continue the development of superior genotypes. It is therefore fundamental that the genetic relationships and diversity within the germplasm pools be thoroughly characterized and understood. Recently, DNA-based markers have provided powerful tools for genetic diversity analysis. This...

Re-examining Ceratomyxa shasta in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Stinson, Matthew E. T.
Abstract:: Ceratomyxa shasta infects salmonids in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of North America, occasionally causing losses in wild and captive populations. Host-specific parasite genotypes (O, I, II, III) were previously characterized molecularly using markers in the ribosomal DNA and phenotypically by type host in the Klamath River, CA/OR. This thesis sough...

An analysis of the import demand for hard red winter and western white wheat in Asian Pacific rim nations

Creator:: Simone, Mark V.
Abstract:: Wheat is a major agricultural product in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). The market class primarily grown in the region is Western White (WW) wheat. An important export market for PNW wheat producers is the Asian Pacific Rim (APR), due to its proximity and economic growth. Agronomic research has been conducted...

Utilization of the Non-Native Seagrass, Zostera japonica, by Crab and Fish in Pacific Northwest Estuaries

Creator:: Sund, Daniel M.
Abstract:: The introduction of non-native species often results in fundamental changes in the structure and function of disturbed environments. In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), the introduced seagrass Zostera japonica is rapidly expanding in distribution, impacting stakeholders and public use of the intertidal. Z. japonica’s expansion has prompted a number of different...

Understanding Patterns of Timber Harvest and their Drivers : A Quantitative Assessment of Forest Governance in the Western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Harris, Tyler C.
Abstract:: Effective forest governance is central to the efficient, sustainable, and equitable use of forest resources, yet challenges in assessing forest governance impede efforts to improve it. Contemporary forest governance involves decisions by multiple stakeholders across multiple sectors of economy and society, from local to global scales – making forest governance...

Multi-hazard framework and analysis of soil-bridge systems : long duration earthquake and tsunami loading

Creator:: Carey, Trevor J.
Abstract:: During the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami, numerous bridge structures were damage or destroyed. The damage to bridge systems was caused by long duration strong ground shaking, tsunami inundation forces, or both. Long duration strong ground shaking from subduction zone earthquakes and the multi-hazard scenario of combined earthquake...

Regional scale sandbar variability : observations from the U.S. Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Di Leonardo, Diana R.
Abstract:: Understanding sandbar dynamics and variability is integral to developing a predictive capacity for nearshore flows, sediment transport, morphological change, and ultimately for determining coastline exposure to damaging storm waves. Along the high-energy U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW) coast, sandbars typically dominate the bathymetry of the active zone. Here we report on...
