High-resolution Biological Net Community Production in the Pacific-influenced Arctic: A Multi-method Comparison

Creator:: Cynar, Haley
Abstract:: Patterns of primary productivity in the Arctic are expected to change with continued warming, yet productivity measurements are historically limited, both spatially and temporally. An established method of measuring net biological oxygen production, which can be used to estimate net community production (NCP) rates, is with an equilibrated inlet mass...

Effects of Intranasal Oxytocin on Attachment in Pet Dogs (Canis lupus familiaris)

Creator:: Thielke, Lauren E.
Abstract:: The present study explored the effects of intranasal oxytocin (OT), a naturally occurring hormone, on the behavior of pet dogs in an attachment test. Each dog participated in two testing sessions. On one visit saline was administered nasally and on another OT was administered nasally. Condition order was counterbalanced. Following...

Meteorological conditions associated with rain-related periglacial debris flows on Mount Hood, Oregon and Mount Rainier, Washington

Creator:: Parker, Lauren E.
Abstract:: In November of 2006 an intense rainstorm of tropical origin, known colloquially as the "Pineapple Express," inundated the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, initiating numerous periglacial debris flows on several of the stratovolcanoes in the Cascade Range of Oregon and Washington. These debris flows rapidly aggrade channels, deposit...

Structural Variations of Headwater Stream Food Webs Along Geophysical Gradients at the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:: Zatkos, Lauren E.
Abstract:: The structure of food webs and how they relate to community stability has been an important debate in ecology. Specifically, predictability of web shape and how it influenced by surrounding landscapes is one of the main goals of such discussions. Headwater streams provide a study template that is of interest...

(Re)claiming forestry : a case study of women's empowerment

Creator:: Redmore, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Nonindustrial private forest (NIPF) owners control a significant portion of forestland nationwide. Even though women own or manage NIPF lands, we know very little about how women manage forestland and what barriers women face in forest management. In addition, while there are several forestry organizations available to NIPF owners, few...

Identifying site characteristics that explain variation in Douglas-fir site productivity and stem form

Creator:: Magalska, Lauren E.
Abstract:: Foresters care about site productivity and stem quality in Douglas-fir plantations for many reasons. The profitability of forest land and the economic returns on silvicultural investments are directly related to site productivity. Thus, understanding the relationships among Douglas-fir productivity, stem form and site characteristics is important economically. My objective was...

Influence of controlled strenuous exercise on vitamin B-6 metabolism in man : effects of carbohydrate depletion-repletion diets and vitamin B-6 supplements

Creator:: Hatcher, Lauren Francis
Abstract:: Recent studies in men have shown plasma levels of vitamin B-6 and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP), the active form of vitamin B-6, to increase with exercise. It was hypothesized that muscle glycogen phosphorylase might be the source of these increases as this enzyme has been shown to increase with increasing vitamin...

Controlling Important Pathogens in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Assessing Cryopreservation Survival of Bacteria and Parasites and Clinical Sensitivity of Mycobacterial qPCR Assays

Creator:: Norris, Lauren J.
Abstract:: Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are one of the most commonly used animal models in biomedical research. Zebrafish resource facilities, like the Zebrafish International Resource Center (ZIRC) in Eugene, Oregon, are the main providers and keepers of numerous zebrafish wild-type, mutant, and transgenic lines. Although ZIRC maintains live zebrafish at various life...

Modeling human expertise for providing adaptive levels of robot shared autonomy

Creator:: Milliken, Lauren
Abstract:: In shared autonomy, a robot and human user both have some level of control in order to achieve a shared goal. Choosing the balance of control given to the user and the robot can be a challenging problem since different users have different preferences and vary in skill levels when...

Factors Affecting Persistence of Canines at an Independent Task

Creator:: Brubaker, Lauren M.
Abstract:: The development of problem-solving behaviors in canines, including persistence, has implications for canine training, welfare, and the human-dog bond. Past research has shown that a variety of factors, including genetics (domestication) and training experience, play a role in a how a canine might behave during a problem-solving task. Less well...
