An economic evaluation of logging road maintenance

Creator:: Feeney, Daniel John
Abstract:: This thesis describes the results of a project conducted to determine the economics of forest road maintenance alternatives between periods of timber harvesting. An open road and a closed road alternative will be compared to the economics of clearcutting an entire area and obliterating the road system until reentry at...

Convergent crater circulations on Mars: Influence on the surface pressure cycle and the depth of the convective boundary layer

Creator:: Tyler, Daniel Jr and Barnes, Jeffrey R.
Abstract:: Modeling of slope flow circulations in idealized axisymmetric craters is used to understand (1) the large surface pressure amplitude observed in Gale Crater by the Rover Environmental Monitoring Station and (2) the shallow convective boundary layer (CBL) suggested by Curiosity imagery. Air temperatures vary within craters with greater amplitudes than...

Sub-Perfect Game: Profitable Biases of NBA Referees

Creator:: Price, Joseph, Remer, Marc, and Stone, Daniel F.
Abstract:: This paper empirically investigates three hypotheses regarding biases of National Basketball Association (NBA) referees. Using a sample of 28,388 quarter-level observations from six seasons, we find that referees make calls that favor home teams, teams losing during games, and teams losing in playoff series. All three biases are likely to...

A study of the DNA excision repair capabilities of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) exposed to dietary cyclopropenoid fatty acids

Creator:: Collier, John Mark
Abstract:: The DNA repair capabilities of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) were studied vising the method of autoradiography. Trout were fed a semi-purified control diet containing 0 ppm, 50 ppm, or 300 ppm cyclopropenoid fatty acids (CPFA) for 6-9 weeks. Liver slices were prepared and exposed in vitro to a control treatment,...

Carbon emissions from decomposition of fire-killed trees following a large wildfire in Oregon, United States

Creator:: Campbell, John L., Fontaine, Joseph B., and Donato, Daniel C.
Abstract:: A key uncertainty concerning the effect of wildfire on carbon dynamics is the rate at which fire-killed biomass (e.g., dead trees) decays and emits carbon to the atmosphere. We used a ground-based approach to compute decomposition of forest biomass killed, but not combusted, in the Biscuit Fire of 2002, an...

Medical Mistrust, Perceived Discrimination, and Satisfaction With Health Care Among Young-Adult Rural Latinos

Creator:: Lopez-Cevallos, Daniel F., Harvey, S. Marie, and Warren, Jocelyn T.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: Little research has analyzed mistrust and discrimination influencing receipt of health care services among Latinos, particularly those living in rural areas. The present study examined the associations between medical mistrust, perceived discrimination, and satisfaction with health care among young-adult rural Latinos. RESEARCH DESIGN: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from...

Carbon accumulation of tropical peatlands over millennia: a modeling approach

Creator:: Kurnianto, Sofyan, Warren, Matthew, Talbot, Julie, Kauffman, Boone, Murdiyarso, Daniel, and Frolking, Steve
Abstract:: Tropical peatlands cover an estimated 440,000 km² (~10% of global peatland area) and are significant in the global carbon cycle by storing about 40–90 Gt C in peat. Over the past several decades, tropical peatlands have experienced high rates of deforestation and conversion, which is often associated with lowering the...

Nutritional stress affects corticosterone deposition in feathers of Caspian tern chicks

Creator:: Patterson, Allison G. L., Kitaysky, Alexander S., Lyons, Donald E., and Roby, Daniel D.
Abstract:: Stressful environmental conditions affect the adrenocortical function of developing animals, which can have consequences for their fitness. Discovery of the avian stress hormone corticosterone (CORT) in feathers has the potential to broaden the application of endocrine research in ecological and evolutionary studies of wild birds by providing a long-term measure...

Developing Nondestructive Techniques for Managing Conflicts Between Fisheries and Double-Crested Cormorant Colonies

Creator:: Suzuki, Yasuko, Roby, Daniel D., Lyons, Donald E., Courtot, Karen N., and Collis, Ken
Abstract:: Double-crested cormorants (Phalacrocorax auritus) have been identified as the source of significant mortality to juvenile salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) in the Columbia River Basin. Management plans for reducing the size of a large colony on East Sand Island (OR, USA) in the Columbia River estuary are currently being developed. We evaluated...
