The purpose of this project was to collect baseline data for a Before-After-Control-Impact (BACI) study of effects a wave energy conversion project planned for the coastal waters off of Reedsport, Oregon on the local benthic ecology. A BACI study controls for inevitable spatial and temporal environmental variation and provides an...

Questions:
Popular methods to analyse community–trait–environment relationships constrain community patterns by trait and environment relationships. What if some traits are strongly associated with community composition but unrelated to environmental variables and vice versa? We take a different approach, unconstrained by this assumption using non-parametric methods. We applied this technique to...

Chromosome segregation relies on coordinated activity of a large assembly of proteins, the kinetochore interaction network (KIN). How conserved the underlying mechanisms driving the epigenetic phenomenon of centromere and kinetochore assembly and maintenance are remains unclear, even though various eukaryotic models have been studied. More than 50 different proteins, many...

Hispanics in Hood River County, Oregon account for roughly 25% of the population, with many employed in agriculture. A community health survey was carried out in Hood River County during the winter months of 2001 with the purpose of evaluating the health conditions, needs, and barriers to access of needed...

America’s rural Hispanic population is growing at an unprecedented rate. Many of the Hispanic people that are settling in rural communities are immigrants or first generation Americans. If changes to current healthcare systems are required to accommodate the health needs of this growing, low-income rural population they have not been...

This project hypothesizes that the use of multiple ground-based remote sensing methods can collectively characterize the geophysical signatures of four marked human burials at the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians historic period cemetery. If the geophysical signatures of the marked burials can be characterized, these signatures may be used to...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Michael Rogers for the degree of
The governance of fish resources that migrate between or straddle different national EEZs is always complicated and often contentious. In the Western and Central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) valuable tuna stocks are found in significant quantities in more than 12 national Exclusive Economic Zones as well as extensive high seas areas...
