Oregon State University swine herd records of 456
litters farrowed between 1962-73 in three populations were
analyzed on a generation basis to compare changes in
performance of a Composite population to parental
Berkshire and Yorkshire breeds. Analysis was performed in
six discrete and overlapping generations on backfat
thickness, loin eye...
Objective. The purpose of this study was to improve understanding of
who experiences insurance-based discrimination during prenatal care, labor, and delivery
and how their health care may differ from that of other women. Methods. We pooled data
from the 1998-99, 2000, and 2001 Oregon Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System
and...
Fine and gross motor skills are essential for healthy development. Studies suggest that children in lower socioeconomic status (SES) families present a delay in these essential motor skills and, therefore, are at risk for poor motor skill development.This study aimed to correlate fine and gross motor skills with family socioeconomic...

Soils are globally significant sources and sinks of
atmospheric CO₂. Increasing the resolution of soil carbon
turnover estimates is important for predicting the response of
soil carbon cycling to environmental change. We show that
soil carbon turnover times can be more finely resolved using
a dual isotope label like the...
Many declining and commercially important populations are supplemented with captive-born individuals that are intentionally released into the wild. These supplementation programs often create large numbers of offspring from relatively few breeding adults, which can have substantial population-level effects. We examined the genetic effects of supplementation on a wild population of...

The role of back channel surface chemistry on amorphous zinc tin oxide (ZTO) bottom gate thin film transistors (TFTs) has been characterized by positive bias-stress measurements and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Positive bias-stress turn-on voltage shifts for ZTO-TFTs were significantly reduced by passivation of back channel surfaces with self-assembled monolayers of...
Oxygen is often the rate-limiting factor in aerobic in situ bioremediation. This paper investigates the degree to which air or oxygen gas can be emplaced into the pore space of saturated porous media and provide a significant mass of oxygen. Column experiments were performed to test three emplacement methods: direct...
