Creator:: Meade, James Montgomery
Abstract:: The thesis presented here is a quantitative study of vacant urban land in Corvallis, Oregon. In order to present this study the writer first studied the available literature and found that little had been published dealing with causal factors of vacant urban land. Rather, it was found that several writers...

Small RNA pathways in plants

Creator:: Montgomery, Taiowa A.
Abstract:: miRNA-guided cleavage initiates entry of primary transcripts into the trans-acting siRNA (tasiRNA) biogenesis pathway involving RNA-DEPENDENT RNA POLYMERASE6 (RDR6), DICER-LIKE 4 (DCL4), and SUPPRESSOR OF GENE SILENCING3 (SGS3). Arabidopsis thaliana TAS1 and TAS2 families yield tasiRNA that form through miR173- guided initiation cleavage on the 5’ side of the siRNA-generating...

Creation and investigation of musical forms designed to promote relaxation

Creator:: Montgomery, Sue
Abstract:: The study was a creative endeavor in which researchfindings from the areas of medicine, mental health andeducation concerning effects of background music were combinedinto an experimental musical form designed to promote andfacilitate the relaxation response. This experimental musicwas cormared with Baroque largo musical background, as recommendedin Lozanov's method of accelerated...

The effects of increased supply and emerging technologies in the forest products industry on rural communities in the northwest U.S.

Creator:: Crandall, Mindy S.
Abstract:: The development of a market for currently non-merchantable forest material, such as harvest residues of tops and limbs of trees or small diameter trees, has been suggested as a possible win-win solution that could: (i) provide a financial incentive to help motivate treatments to reduce wildfire risk or restore forest...

Determining optimal timber harvest and fuel treatment on a fire-threatened landscape using approximate dynamic programming

Creator:: Lauer, Christopher Joseph
Abstract:: Forest management in the face of fire risk is a challenging problem because fire spreads across a landscape and because its occurrence is unpredictable. Additionally, management must be adjusted over time as unpredictable fire events are realized. Land managers have some control over the vegetation conditions that facilitate fire spread,...

Homeowner Association Resident’s Perceptions on Stormwater Retention Ponds and Clean Drinking Water: (Montgomery West Homeowners Association (MWHOA) Gaithersburg, Maryland)

Creator:: Roberts, William Hadyn, Jr.
Abstract:: This report describes the findings from a 22 question survey of the 104 member Montgomery West Homeowners Association (MWHOA) in Gaithersburg, Maryland. Resident’s perceptions of their practices as related to the neighborhood storm ponds, stormwater, and how homeowner practices contribute to non-point source pollutants. An understanding of Green Infrastructure (GI)...

Wildfire risk management : strategic interaction and spatial interdependence

Creator:: Busby, Gwenlyn M.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I examine how the spatial configuration of forest ownership influences the risk-mitigating behavior of public and private forestland owners over time. I determine whether or not the predicted equilibrium outcomes are socially optimal and, if not, whether the introduction of regulation, liability, or private insurance would lead...

Optimizing spatial and temporal aspects of nature reserve design under economic and ecological objectives

Creator:: Nalle, Darek J.
Abstract:: Alteration of natural areas in attempts to support increasing human populations has been a crucial yet less publicized contributor to the fall of many of the world's greatest civilizations, since healthy ecosystems can help maintain stable societies and economies. Given this unhappy fact and the ancient relationship between people and...

Identification of MIR390a precursor processing defective mutants in Arabidopsis by direct genome sequencing

Creator:: Cuperus, Josh T., Montgomery, Taiowa A., Fahlgren, Noah, Burke, Russell T., Townsend, Tiffany, Sullivan, Christopher M., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: Transacting siRNA (tasiRNA) biogenesis in Arabidopsis is initiated by microRNA (miRNA) –guided cleavage of primary transcripts. In the case of TAS3 tasiRNA formation, ARGONAUTE7 (AGO7)– miR390 complexes interact with primary transcripts at two sites, resulting in recruitment of RNA-DEPENDENT RNA POLYMERASE6 for dsRNA biosynthesis. An extensive screen for Arabidopsis mutants...

Three essays on private landowners' response to incentives for carbon sequestration through forest management and afforestation

Creator:: Kim, Taeyoung
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of three essays on private landowners' response to incentives for carbon sequestration in forests. The first essay examines private landowner response to incentives for carbon sequestration through various combinations of intermediate management practices. The second essay focuses on agricultural landowners' willingness to participate in an incentive program...
