Ecological influence of bacterial kidney disease on juvenile spring chinook salmon : effects on predator avoidance ability, smoltification, and physiological responses to stress

Creator:: Mesa, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were experimentally infected with Renibacterium salmoninarum (Rs), the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease (BKD), to investigate the effects of BKD on three aspects of juvenile salmonid performance: (1) predator avoidance ability; (2) smoltification; and (3) physiological responses to stress. For these experiments, fish with...

Creator:: Wenning, Matthew
Abstract:: Chlorinated and non-chlorinated solvents are used in a variety of industrial processes and as a consequence, they have become environmental contaminants as well. Because of this, they lead to both occupational and environmental exposures. Exposure to these compounds can potentially result in various forms of neurological damage with a wide...

The effect of defoliation and nitrogen application on the seed yield of Linn perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L) and Merion Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis L)

Creator:: Mulanax, Matthew William
Abstract:: The effect of clipping and supplemental nitrogen application on seed production of Linn perennial ryegrass and Merion Kentucky bluegrass was studied. Clipping and nitrogen treatments did not significantly affect the seed yield of Linn perennial ryegrass during the 1967 growing season. The seed yield of Merion Kentucky bluegrass was significantly...

Fostering upward mobility of Mexican American adults through a critical incident

Creator:: Matthews, Mildred Shuman
Abstract:: This research design was based upon the mutual relevance between the fields of education and anthropology to cause cognitive cultural awareness by the teachers of adults as well as visibility within the Mexican American ethnic group. Specifically the purpose of this study was twofold:. (1) to determine whether the adult...

Bench-scale study for the bioremediation of chlorinated ethylenes at Point Mugu Naval Air Weapons Station, Point Mugu California, IRP Site 24

Creator:: Keeling, Matthew Thomas
Abstract:: Laboratory scale microcosm studies were conducted using site specific groundwater and aquifer solids to assess the feasibility of stimulating indigenous microorganisms in-situ to biologically transform Trichloroethylene (TCE) and its lesser chlorinated daughter products dichloroethylene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC). Three different treatments were conducted to determine the best approach for...

Habitat selection by juvenile Swainson’s thrushes (Catharus ustulatus) in headwater riparian areas, Northwestern Oregon, USA

Creator:: Jenkins, Stephanie R., Betts, Matthew G., Huso, Manuela M., and Hagar, Joan C.
Abstract:: Lower order, non-fish-bearing streams, often termed ‘‘headwater streams’’, have received minimal research effort and protection priority, especially in mesic forests where distinction between riparian and upland vegetation can be subtle. Though it is generally thought that breeding bird abundance is higher in riparian zones, little is known about species distributions...

Creator:: Schmidt, Kenneth A., Johansson, Jacob, and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Social information is used widely in breeding habitat selection and provides an efficient means for individuals to select habitat, but the population-level consequences of this process are not well explored. At low population densities, efficiencies may be reduced because there are insufficient information providers to cue high-quality habitat. This constitutes...

Cesium radioisotope content of wild edible fungi, mineral soil, and surface litter in western North America after the Fukushima nuclear accident

Creator:: Trappe, Matthew J., Minc, Leah D., Kittredge, Kimberly S., and Pink, Jeremias W.
Abstract:: We measured activity levels of cesium radioisotopes ¹³⁴Cs and ¹³⁷Cs in wild edible fungi, mineral soil, and surface litter of the west coast of North America from southern California to northern Vancouver Island after the Fukushima nuclear accident. All activity measurements were below governmental limits for human health. ¹³⁷Cs activity...

Mussel selectivity for high-quality food drives carbon inputs into open-coast intertidal ecosystems

Creator:: Bracken, Matthew E. S., Menge, Bruce A., Foley, Melissa M., Sorte, Cascade J. B., Lubchenco, Jane, and Schiel, David R.
Abstract:: Filter-feeding invertebrates consume phytoplankton and detritus and therefore serve as important mediators of the exchange of materials from nearshore pelagic to intertidal benthic ecosystems. Here, we evaluated the linkages between nearshore and intertidal systems on temperate rocky reefs on the coasts of Oregon, USA, and New Zealand’s South Island. We...

Low Diversity in theMitogenome of Sperm Whales Revealed by Next-Generation Sequencing

Creator:: Alexander, Alana, Steel, Debbie, Slikas, Beth, Hoekzema, Kendra, Carraher, Colm, Parks, Matthew, Cronn, Richard, and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: Large population sizes and global distributions generally associate with high mitochondrial DNA control region (CR) diversity. The sperm whale (Physeter macrocephalus) is an exception, showing low CR diversity relative to other cetaceans; however, diversity levels throughout the remainder of the sperm whale mitogenome are unknown. We sequenced 20 mitogenomes from...
