Succession and stability in two rocky intertidal communities on the central Oregon coast

Creator:: Farrell, Terence M.
Abstract:: The stability of a limpet-dominated community was assessed in a experiment in which an consumer was temporarily removed. Compared to unmanipulated plots, the limpet-exclusion plots developed greater algal abundance and altered species composition of both algae and barnacles. The community was not perturbed beyond its capacity to recover, since the...

Reproductive success of the Hawaiian common gallinule (Gallinula galeata sandvicensis) nesting in taro and managed wetlands on Kaua‘i, Hawai‘i

Creator:: Webber, Bryn M.
Abstract:: The endangered Hawaiian common gallinule (Gallinula chloropus sandvicensis) is an endemic Hawaiian waterbird that occurs only on O‘ahu and Kaua‘i. Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) supports the largest population of Hawaiian gallinule on either island and is also one of the highest producers of commercially grown taro in the state....

The effects of oil price shocks on U.S. inflation

Creator:: Kilfoil, Natasha M.
Abstract:: During the 1970’s the United States experienced several periods of high inflation that have been at least partially attributed to positive oil price shocks. The effectiveness of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries at controlling the price of oil has varied over time, as well as the responsiveness of U.S....

Boating Recreation in Oregon : Economic Importance, Trends and Implications for the Future

Creator:: Neely, Robert M.
Abstract:: The lakes, rivers and coastal waters of Oregon have long provided the state's residents and visitors with unique recreational boating environs and opportunities. However, this popular activity represents more than a form of recreation: boating is an important component of the Oregon economy. Each year, boaters spend millions of dollars...

Environmental factors and plant-animal interactions on rocky shores along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Brosnan, Deborah M.
Abstract:: Factors affecting the persistence of mussels (Mytilus californianus) and their associated epibiont species were studied along the central Oregon coast. Interactions between mussels and their algal epibionts (Endocladia muricata) varied in sign and strength with environmental conditions. In extreme temperatures mussel—epibiont interactions determined survival of individual mussels, and persistence of...

Oceanographic influences on rocky intertidal communities : coastal upwelling, invertebrate growth rates, and keystone predation

Creator:: Sanford, Eric (Eric David)
Abstract:: The influence of large-scale processes on natural communities has become one of the central issues of modern ecology. I combined field and laboratory studies to investigate the effects of variation in coastal upwelling on rocky intertidal communities along the central Oregon coast. I examined whether the growth of intertidal barnacles...

Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Coralline Algae : From Species to Community Consequences

Creator:: Shen, Chenchen
Abstract:: Oceanic uptake of rising anthropogenic CO₂ emissions has caused the emergence of ocean acidification as a major threat to marine ecosystems worldwide. Along eastern boundary current systems, seawater is naturally acidified due to coastal upwelling of low pH seawater from depth. Compounded by ocean acidification, upwelling regions are expected to...

Characterizing the habitat and diving behavior of satellite-tagged blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) off California

Creator:: Irvine, Ladd
Abstract:: This study was designed to identify and characterize areas of concentrated use and diving behavior of blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) off the California coast. During the summer of 2004, thirteen blue whales were tagged with implantable Telonics ST-15 Argos satellite-monitored radio tags and five were tagged with Telonics ST-21 Argos...

The Architecture of a Reusable Built-In Self-Test for Link Training, IO and Memory Defect Detection and Auto Repair on 14nm Intel SOC

Creator:: Querbach, Bruce
Abstract:: The complexity of designing and testing today's system on chip (SOC) is increasing due to greater integrated circuit (IC) density and higher IO and memory frequencies. SOCs for the mobile phone and tablet market have the unique challenge of short product development windows, at times less than six months, and...
