Impacts of Prior Risk Experience and Personal Values on Support for Climate Change Policies

Creator:: Dwyer, Kiera M.
Abstract:: In 2020, Oregon suffered one of the worst wildfire seasons on record, with a higher percent of forest area burn, the destruction of residential areas, and the risk to human health. The level of intensity of these wildfires were due to the effects of climate change and Oregon wildfire seasons...

Provenance, lifespan, and phylogeny : testing a conceptual framework for plant community management

Creator:: Benfield, Cara D.
Abstract:: Successful conservation management requires an understanding of how species respond to intervention. Native and exotic species may respond differently to management interventions due to differences arising directly from their native or exotic origin (i.e., provenance) or from differences in life-history or phylogenetic lineage that are associated with provenance. Thus, selection...

The effects of land use on stream nitrate concentrations : from the catchment scale to the regional scale

Creator:: Poor, Cara J.
Abstract:: This work furthers the understanding of processes occurring in catchments that affect stream nitrate concentrations using two different approaches: a temporally intensive case study of three headwater catchments with varying land use (through storm event monitoring) and a spatially intensive study on the regional scale (through statistical modeling) of 1st-4th...

Cooperation and conflict in Pseudomonas aeruginosa quorum sensing

Creator:: Wilder, Cara N.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an environmental bacterium as well as an opportunistic pathogen that primarily infects immunocompromised individuals, including those suffering from cystic fibrosis. The density-dependent regulation of gene expression via cell-to-cell communication, also termed quorum sensing (QS), is an important virulence determinant in this organism. Generally, P. aeruginosa uses three...

A seasonal study of sediment reworking by Neotrypaea californiensis in Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Fritz, Cara E.
Abstract:: A year-long field study was undertaken to investigate the influence of a number of physical and biological factors, specifically temperature, organic carbon content, and shrimp population dynamics on sediment reworking rates by the ghost shrimp Neotrypaea calforniensis. Because of its role as a structuring agent in estuaries along the West...

Fingerprinting, reproductive behavior and pollinator dynamics of Buddleja davidii and interspecific hybrids

Creator:: Still, Cara M.
Abstract:: Buddleja davidii (butterfly bush) is a highly adaptable landscape plant known for pollinator attraction. Unfortunately, it is also regarded as an invasive plant in highly disturbed environments across the globe. It is an invasive species in Oregon, officially classified as a class B noxious weed in 2004. Currently the state...

Evaluating downstream channel changes in response to a small dam removal on the Calapooia River, Oregon with respect to measurement errors and prior aerial photo observed changes

Creator:: Walter, Cara
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of aerial photos as a substitute for multiple-year pre-removal field data to assess the downstream channel changes associated with a small dam removal. The Brownsville Dam, a 2.1 m tall concrete dam on the Calapooia River, Oregon, was removed in...

Prehistoric Land-Use Patterns in the North Santiam Subbasin, On the Western Slopes of the Oregon Cascade Range

Creator:: Kelly, Cara McCulley
Abstract:: This thesis examines prehistoric land use patterns of the entire North Santiam subbasin, located on the western slopes of the Oregon Cascade Range. The objective of this analysis is three-fold: 1) to contribute to reconstructing the cultural chronology of the area; 2) to address the use of raw material by...

Symposium proceedings : herbicides and vegetation management in forests, ranges, and noncrop lands, 1967

Creator:: Oregon State University. School of Forestry
Abstract:: The nonagricultural lands of the world are being called upon today to satisfy tremendous demands from society at all levels of economic development. Until recently, costs of management of many of these lands were too high to warrant appreciable management investment for the relatively low yields. Society is beginning to...
