This is a listing of both PhD and Master's· theses relating to the areas of forestry issued during the period from July 1976 to June 1981. The
list is arranged first by state, then by college or university within each state. Authors of theses are arranged alphabetically under each of...
The study area for this assessment is composed of the Alsea, Salmon, Siletz, Yachats, and
Yaquina River watersheds and those watersheds that drain directly to the ocean between
Cascade Head and Cape Creek at Heceta Head (Ocean Tributaries). Wherever possible,
1:24,000 uniform scale geographic information system (GIS) data that covered...
Hexachlorophene (HCP; 2,2'-methylenebis-(3,4,6-trichlorophenol))
was developed as an antibacterial agent but was also found to induce
toxic effects in various tissues in animals and humans. Changes were
found in myelinated nerve fibers and cerebral white matter. Erythrocytes
are hemolysed in vitro. Oxidative phosphorylation is uncoupled
by HCP at concentrations less than...
Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize face socio-economic hardships, persisting environmental constraints, and an unfavorable political climate that has prevented land tenure stability on reservation lands. This thesis describes the agricultural practices of a group of Mopan farmers and examines farm-site diversification and its relationship to ecological knowledge, out-migration, agricultural...

programs and policies relating to conservation and
development of water and related land resources and to water
pollution control in the years 1961 to 1970. It discusses most
relevant Federal legislation and the functioning of Federal and
federally-assisted programs involving research,...
The focus of this thesis is to design, characterize, and apply novel computational methods and molecular systems to interrogate heterogeneous human gut microbiome-related phenomena. In Chapter 2, I design, implement, and characterize a method for embedding co-occurrence patterns derived from massive 16s amplicon datasets. I use this method to 1....
Oregon State University campus grounds have long been admired for their beauty and the diversity of over 65,000 individual woody plants that grace the 570 acres of campus. The woody plant collection has provided a living learning laboratory for the university and surrounding community for decades. The campus grounds include...
Nanoparticles (NPs), defined by their size (1-100 nm), are increasingly incorporated into commercial and industrial products due to their high surface area and unique properties. They can be designed for specific applications by manipulating composition, size, shape, and surface functionalization. As NP production and complexity increases, there is a need...
Aggregate, which consists of crushed rock, sand, and gravel resources, is one of the most extracted resources in Oregon. Floodplain sites throughout the Willamette Valley -- particularly along the Willamette River -- are of particular importance because they produce high quality sand and gravel, located close to the aggregate market....
