Xenobiotic biotransformation in aquatic organisms

Creator:: Schlenk, Daniel K.
Abstract:: Aquatic animals are exposed to a variety of natural and anthropogenic xenobiotics. Biotransformation of xenobiotics was examined in three aquatic animals: a primitive mollusc (chiton); a shellfish which is an important human food source (oyster); and, a lower vertebrate model for toxicological studies (rainbow trout). Since digestive glands of Cryntochiton...

An empirical statistical model relating winds and ocean surface currents : implications for short-term current forecasts

Creator:: Zelenke, Brian Christopher
Abstract:: An empirical statistical model is developed that relates the non-tidal motion of the ocean surface currents off the Oregon coast to forecasts of the coastal winds. The empirical statistical model is then used to produce predictions of the surface currents that are evaluated for their agreement with measured currents. Measurements...

Modeling climate, vegetation, and water balance at landscape to regional scales

Creator:: Daly, Christopher
Abstract:: The general objective of this study was to develop models and datasets that would significantly advance our ability to assess the current and future effects of global change on the biosphere. The focus was in two areas: (1) preparing environmental datasets at regional to small watershed scales; and (2) developing...

Regulation of ribonucleotide reductase analyzed by simultaneous measurement of the four enzyme activities

Creator:: Hendricks, Stephen P.
Abstract:: The first committed step in DNA biosynthesis occurs by direct reduction of ribonucleotides. This reduction is catalyzed by ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), an enzyme which uses a unique radical mechanism to facilitate the transformation. All four DNA precursors are synthesized by a single enzyme. Therefore, an intricate pattern of regulation has...

The role of avian predators in an Oregon rocky intertidal community

Creator:: Marsh, Christopher P.
Abstract:: Birds affected the community structure of an Oregon rocky shore by preying upon mussels (Mytilus spp.) and limpets (Collisella spp.). The impact of such predation is potentially great, as mussels are the competitively dominant mid-intertidal space-occupiers, and limpets are important herbivores in this community. Prey selection by birds reflects differences...

Patterns of vertical distribution and migration of zooplankton at Ocean Station “P”

Creator:: Marlowe, Christopher J. and Miller, Charles B.
Abstract:: Stratified bongo net samples taken at depths between 0 and 500 m at Ocean Station “P” in the subarctic Pacific in early July 1971 have been analyzed to determine the vertical structure of the zooplankton community. Distributions for 99 categories of animals have been grouped by factor analysis into five...

The vertical distribution of zooplankton at Ocean Station "P" in June-July, 1971

Creator:: Marlowe, Christopher J., Miller, Charles B., and Oregon State University. School of Oceanography
Abstract:: This report contains the data gathered at Ocean Station "P" in late June and early July of 1971 on the "SUBARCTIC-A" cruise of R/V YAQUINA. The data include: 1) temperature, salinity, and oxygen profiles; 2) estimates of zooplankton displacement volumes at different depths; and 3) estimates of the numerical density...

The physiology of plagiotropic growth of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco]

Creator:: Starbuck, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Experiments were conducted to determine if the plagiotropic growth habit of rooted cuttings of Douglas-fir might result from a system favoring the accumulation of indoleacetic acid in the adaxial side of the shoot in response to vertical placement. Actively growing excised branch terminals were subjected to gravitational disorientation to determine...
