  • Postpartum disorders associated with high potassium forages in Holstein cows

    Creator:
    Crill, Roberta L.
    Abstract:
    Until recently, occurrence of milk fever (MF) has been attributed to prepartum calcium intake. However, researchers in Iowa have concluded that high prepartum dietary potassium (K) is the major cause of MF. Potassium concentrations have been increasing on manure fertilized soils over the last 20 years. Grasses grown on these...

  • The effect of cultivar maturity and frozen storage time on the cell wall polysaccharide composition of muskmelon(Cucumis melo)

    Creator:
    Simandjuntak, Valencius
    Abstract:
    The effect of frozen storage time on the composition of the cell wall polysaccharide (CWP) of muskmelon (Cucumis melo) cultivars at different stages of maturity was investigated. Changes in composition, firmness, drip loss, and color of Cantaloupe and Honey Dew melon flesh were determined at three stages of maturity and...

  • Transforming shrimp and crab waste into dairy heifer feed

    Creator:
    Evers, Dale J.
    Abstract:
    The goal of these experiments was to ensile combinations of shrimp or crab waste with perennial ryegrass straw and analyze it for silage quality and ruminal degradability. The rapid deterioration of seafood wastes required initial preservation prior to ensiling to minimize odor production and protein breakdown. Eight experiments were conducted...

  • Transhumance as an adaptive strategy of West Coast RV retirees

    Creator:
    Williams, Diane
    Abstract:
    This ethnography describes RV [recreational vehicle] seasonal migration as an adaptive, transhumant strategy. The study population is retired, transhumant migrants, who are members of a nation-wide, membership camping organization. Fieldwork was conducted over a period of seven months at two sites located on the West Coast. These sites reflect northern...

  • Bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA analysis of pyrrolizidine alkaloid detoxifying enrichments from the ovine rumen

    Creator:
    Gray, Diane R.
    Abstract:
    Bacterial cultures enriched from sheep rumen fluid have demonstrated the ability to detoxify pyrrolizidine alkaloids (seneciphylline and jacobine) in tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea). The microbes are difficult to isolate using classical anaerobic techniques, therefore, microbes from two different enrichment cultures demonstrating similar degradation activity were identified using their 16S ribosomal...

    Abstract:
    Paleozoic limestones, dolomites, quartz arenites, and other clastic rocks were mapped in the vicinity of Dobbin Summit and Clear Creek in the central Monitor Range. Sedimentary rock units present in this area represent the shallow-shelf eastern assemblage and basin and also the basin-slope facies of the traditional limestoneclastic assemblage. The...

  • Dynamics of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer

    Creator:
    Foster, Diane Lyn
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an examination of the nearshore wave bottom boundary layer under conditions of significant sediment response. Using both field observations and simple models, the response of the bottom boundary layer to random waves is shown to have a complex behavior. First, the linearized wave bottom boundary layer governing...

  • Toward a student-constructed model of student services for electronic distance education

    Creator:
    Blount, Joanna F.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this qualitative study was to describe and communicate a student-constructed model of student services for electronic distance education (EDE). This study seeks to answer the following questions: Do students enrolled in EDE perceive a need for student services? If not, why not? Which services do students want/need?...
