  • Spring irrigation management of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) seed crops

    Creator:
    Orthel, Krista D.
    Abstract:
    Later maturing cultivars and increased ability to apply irrigation have led to inquiries by producers about proper irrigation management in tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) seed crops. The literature reveals little information about irrigation of perennial grass seed crops in general, and none about tall fescue in particular. Willamette Valley...

  • Spatiotemporal Distribution of Ceratonova shasta and its Genotypes in the Deschutes River Basin

    Creator:
    Hubbard, Kalyn M.
    Abstract:
    The waterborne, myxozoan parasite Ceratonova shasta is endemic to the Pacific Northwest and can be lethal to its secondary salmonid host, including the culturally, economically, and recreationally important spring Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) of the Deschutes River, OR. Previously described genotypes of C. shasta exhibit specificity with their salmonid hosts....

  • Evaluation of kasugamycin-use strategies designed to delay development of resistance in Erwinia amylovora

    Creator:
    Hubbard, Andrew Robert
    Abstract:
    The antibiotics, streptomycin sulfate and oxytetracycline, are used widely for fire blight suppression in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The efficacy of streptomycin, however, is compromised by widespread streptomycin-resistance in E. amylovora populations, and oxytetracycline is only partially effective. Consequently, for several years, the aminoglycoside antibiotic, kasugamycin...

  • A Formal Foundation for Variational Programming Using the Choice Calculus

    Creator:
    Hubbard, Spencer
    Abstract:
    In this thesis, we present semantic equivalence rules for an extension of the choice calculus and sound operations for an implementation of variational lists. The choice calculus is a calculus for describing variation and the formula choice calculus is an extension with formulas. We prove semantic equivalence rules for the...

    Creator:
    Hubbard, Monica L.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this analysis is to use the social construction framework to determine 1) whether the Oregon Drug Take Back Program stakeholder group can design a public policy that will ultimately reduce water contamination from the improper disposal of unused pharmaceuticals from the general public, and 2) use the...

  • Performance validation of a prototype skin contamination detector via use of very thin thermoluminescent dosimetry

    Creator:
    Kaiser, Krista
    Abstract:
    The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) sets regulations for specific depths in the human skin for exposure to highly localized radioactive particles known as hot particles. This research determines the dose rate to a 10 cm² area with a density thickness of 1 mg/cm² at depths representing shallow dose, lens of...
