Environmental contaminants in male river otters collected from Oregon and Washington, 1994-99, with reproductive organ hypoplasia observed in otter males

Creator:: Grove, Robert Allan
Abstract:: A large number of river otter (Lontra canadensis) males were collected from areas of high and low contaminant concentrations throughout western Oregon and Washington during the fall and winter of 1994-99. Few significant non-reproductive organ morphometric differences were found in the large series of male otters collected, except for adrenal...

Insights and Patterns from Quantitative and Statistical Analyses of Chemical Systems

Creator:: Grove, Markas Albert
Abstract:: The work presented here is the culmination of efforts in describing complex chemical systems with statistical methods, thereby providing relatively simple quantitative models and easily comprehensible qualitative insights. The following investigations have various goals, such as development of new methods, fundamental understanding, molecular control of chemical species, and advancement of...

Biology of sweet cherry powdery mildew

Creator:: Calabro, Jill M.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest has become one of the nation’s premier sweet cherry, Prunus avium, production areas. As production of sweet cherries has flourished in Oregon and Washington, so has powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Podosphaera clandestina, which infects both foliage and fruit causing severe economic damage to growers. Sweet...

Impact of Process Optimization and Composition on Thin Film BNKT Microstructure, Ferroelectric and Piezoelectric Response

Creator:: Grove, Kyle M.
Abstract:: Recent changes in legislation restricting lead content in waste streams produced during electronics manufacturing have inspired a strong push to develop alternative lead-free materials systems for piezoelectric applications. One lead-free piezoelectric material system, (100-X)Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅TiO₃-XBi₀.₅K₀.₅TiO₃ (BNKT), has shown promising properties in bulk research, however, difficulties have arisen in the development of...

Look Ma, no beads: Analyzing traction force characteristics of migratory adenocarcinoma in heterogeneous type-1 collagen through bead-free confocal microscopy

Creator:: Groves, Nicholas Scott
Abstract:: Current methods in traction force analysis rely on a homogeneous extra-cellular matrix and embedded microbeads to track deformations. The efficacy of these methods decreases when the matrix is not homogeneous. In heterogeneous matrices, beads often aggregate in regions of higher matrix density and float in regions where matrix substrate is...

An analysis of the impact of floodplain regulations on residential land values: the Oak Grove, Oregon case study

Creator:: Brainerd, Richmond T.
Abstract:: Flood damage mitigation by means of land use regulations, as mandated by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, has been controversial and slow in implementation, in part due to the conjecture that residential land values will be adversely affected in the regulated areas. There has been relatively little research...

Studies towards the total syntheses of (+)-phomactins A, D and G

Creator:: Schwartz, Keith D.
Abstract:: Studies towards the total synthesis of (+)-Phomactin A (1), D (6), and G (9), fungal metabolites with unique molecular architecture and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 354 and 356, which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1, 6 and 9....

3,3'-Diindolylmethane Induces G₁ Arrest and Apoptosis in Human Acute T-Cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cells

Creator:: Shorey, Lyndsey E., Hagman, Amanda M., Williams, David E., Ho, Emily, Dashwood, Roderick H., and Benninghoff, Abby D.
Abstract:: Certain bioactive food components, including indole-3-carbinol (I3C) and 3,3'-diindolylmethane (DIM) from cruciferous vegetables, have been shown to target cellular pathways regulating carcinogenesis. Previously, our laboratory showed that dietary I3C is an effective transplacental chemopreventive agent in a dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC)-dependent model of murine T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. The primary objective of the...

Balancing Timber Production and Conservation in the Oregon Coast Range: an Examination of the Response by Birds and Bird-induced Ecosystem Services to Forest Management at Multiple Scales

Creator:: Harris, Scott H.
Abstract:: Society derives many critical and irreplaceable values from forests. With a growing global human population and rates of consumption, forests are under increasing pressure to provide all these values simultaneously. To meet societal demands for wood products, tree plantations are becoming increasingly common and are replacing native forests. Yet, forests...
