This study posited that maturational growth in emotion regulation should be associated with reduction in hyperactivity during the transition into adolescence. The longitudinal design assessed emotion regulation and hyperactivity in an urban community sample of children in three waves, at ages 10.6, 11.6, and 12.6 years. A parallel growth curve...
Heavy timber framing relies primarily on bracing to withstand lateral loads due to earthquakes and wind events. Bracing configurations in heavy timber framed buildings vary widely and include cross bracing, knee bracing, and other geometries. Many heavy timber frames constructed during colonial American times are still standing, exceeding the expected...
Three different ground cover management strategies were compared at the OSU research vineyard near Alpine, Oregon. Botanical diversity was actively increased in two diverse treatments. Another treatment was botanically uniform and contained creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera). The composition of the vineyard floor vegetation and grapevine performance as affected by the...
Increased water temperatures and thermal loading due to anthropogenic inputs has
been shown to negatively impact the lifecycles of aquatic organisms in riverine
systems (Poole and Berman 2001; Hannah, Malcolm et al. 2004; Quinn, Gagne et al.
2004). The studies enclosed in this thesis evaluate and quantify the heat fluxes...

This index provides access to infonnation about women in 102 books and journals. The information contained in each entry is only as good as the original and the quality varies considerably. Much of this infonnation has not before been easily accesible in this form. My hope is that this index...
Pantoea vagans C9-1 (C9-1) is a biological control agent sprayed onto apple and pear trees during bloom for suppression of fire blight, a devastating bacterial disease caused by Erwinia amylovora. Prior bioinformatics studies of C9-1 focused on predicted phenotypes associated with the three native megaplasmids, pPag1, pPag2, and pPag3, and...
The need for field and laboratory studies of the physical and
chemical behavior of environmentally significant organic molecules often
poses problems because of the toxicity of the chemical and the difficulty
of detecting it at environmentally significant concentrations.
Two dysprosium tracers, dysprosium (III) trisacetylacetonate trihydrate
and dysprosium(III) trisdibenzoylmethane monohydrate, were...
