Remote detection and predicted locations of NIPF fuel treatments in central Oregon

Creator:: Hall, Michael P.
Abstract:: Fire regimes across the western United States have been altered due to past land management and changing land use. Mitigating increased risks of wildfire occurrence in landscapes such as central Oregon requires landscape level management from both governmental and private organizations. Non-industrial private forest (NIPF) owners manage a relatively small...

An evaluation of factors influencing the management of Otiorhynchus sulcatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)

Creator:: Kepler, Ryan M.
Abstract:: The black vine weevil (BVW), Otiorhynchus sulcatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is a persistent pest of nursery operations in the United States, feeding on over 140 species of plants. The goals of this research were to 1) assess the behavioral response of BVW to a commonly employed insecticide bifenthrin (Talstar 0.2G®)...

Beckett, Barthelme, and Vonnegut : finding hope in meaninglessness

Creator:: Britten, Alex M.
Abstract:: This thesis is a study of the shifting philosophical trends in the works of Samuel Beckett, Donald Barthelme, and Kurt Vonnegut as representations of a greater shift from modernism to postmodernism. I have chosen to explore Beckett's plays Waiting for Godot and Krapp's Last Tape, Barthelme's short stories "Nothing: A...

Drivers of radial growth and carbon isotope discrimination of bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.) across continental gradients in precipitation, vapour pressure deficit and irradiance

Creator:: Voelker, Steven L., Meinzer, Frederick C., Lachenbruch, Barbara, Brooks, J. Renee, and Guyette, Richard P.
Abstract:: Tree-ring characteristics are commonly used to reconstruct climate variables, but divergence from the assumption of a single biophysical control may reduce the accuracy of these reconstructions. Here, we present data from bur oaks (Quercus macrocarpa Michx.) sampled within and beyond the current species bioclimatic envelope to identify the primary environmental...

Flavin-containing monooxygenase : metabolism and toxicity of anti-tuberculosis drug ethionamide in lung

Creator:: Singh, Priti B.
Abstract:: Multiple drug resistance (MDR) Tuberculosis (TB), leads to increased use of “second-line” drugs; one of the most effective is ethionamide (ETA). ETA is a prodrug metabolized by a mycobacterial flavin-containing monooxygenase (EtaA) as well human flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs). Of the five functional FMOs of humans, FMOs 1, 2, and 3...

Influences of high severity fire and postfire logging on avian and small mammal communities of the Siskiyou Mountains, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Fontaine, Joseph B.
Abstract:: High severity fire is a historical and integral disturbance process in coniferous forest types. Compounded disturbances such as multiple fires or post-disturbance management activities are increasingly common, but ecological responses are not well understood and may represent novel types of disturbances. I studied bird and small mammal communities in the...

The Interaction of Fire Refugia and Climate Refugia: A Case Study within California’s Diablo Mountain Range

Creator:: Turk, Douglas E.
Abstract:: As climate change contributes to larger and more severe wildfires in California, areas of fire refugia – considered unburned and low-severity burn patches – are playing an increasingly important role in sustaining ecosystem resilience, maintaining biodiversity, and supporting post-disturbance recovery. At the same time, climate refugia – which are areas...

A quantitative wildfire risk assessment using a modular approach of geostatistical clustering and regionally distinct valuations of assets—A case study in Oregon

Creator:: Schmidt, Andres, Leavell, Daniel, Punches, John, Rocha Ibarra, Marco A., Kagan, James S., Creutzburg, Megan, McCune, Myrica, Salwasser, Janine, Walter, Cara, and Berger, Carrie
Abstract:: The intensity and scale of wildfires has increased throughout the Pacific Northwest in recent decades, especially within the last decade, destroying vast amounts of valuable resources and assets. This trend is predicted to remain or even magnify due climate change, growing population, increased housing density. Furthermore, the associated stress of...

A contribution to the development of wide band-gap nonlinear optical and laser materials

Creator:: Stone-Sundberg, Jennifer L.
Abstract:: The primary focus of this work is on examining structure-property relationships of interest for high-power nonlinear optical and laser crystals. An intuitive and simply illustrated method for assessing the nonlinear optical potential of structurally characterized noncentrosymmetric materials is introduced. This method is applied to materials including common quartz and tourmaline...
