Ecosystem Functions of Pacific Northwest Estuaries: The Role of Ocean and Watershed Drivers in Eelgrass and Coho Salmon Dynamics

Creator:: Magel, Caitlin L.
Abstract:: Interest is expanding for the potential role of estuaries, particularly seagrass and salt marsh habitats, to sequester carbon, mitigate ocean acidification, and support abundant fisheries. The important functions of estuaries are part of a broader set of ecosystem services, or benefits to humans, which are regulated by ocean and watershed...

Three Sites are Better than One : Exploring Multivalency in LC8 Binding Partners

Creator:: Clark, Sarah A.
Abstract:: Hub proteins bind a large number of partners to facilitate structural changes and downstream protein interactions. LC8, a highly conserved protein homodimer, is a unique hub that regulates the activity of proteins in a wide range of cellular processes by binding to intrinsically disordered regions. With many of these systems,...

It’s in Their Bones: Ecological Drivers of Kemp’s Ridley Sea Turtle (Lepidochelys kempii) Somatic Growth and Population Dynamics

Creator:: Ramirez, Matthew D.
Abstract:: Somatic growth variation manifests from the cumulative effects of a suite of biological, ecological, and environmental processes and can have profound effects on individual fitness and species population dynamics. As ectotherms whose growth dynamics are greatly influenced by environmental factors, sea turtles display considerable variation in somatic growth within and...

Metagenomics, barcoding, and metabarcoding statistical analysis to facilitate integrative genomic studies of microbial and eukaryotic assemblages

Creator:: Senn, Savanah
Abstract:: The body of work aims to contribute to the area of Quantitative analysis in Environmental Sciences, and is focused on the microbiome. The underlying theme for the dissertation is methods and workflow. The unique bioinformatics workflow used for the analysis of genomic data was used to answer distinct and pressing...

Adaptive Meets Precautionary: Navigating Risk and Rules in Collaborative Marine Renewable Energy Permitting Processes

Creator:: Burright, Jeffrey D.
Abstract:: Despite its promise as a potentially beneficial new source of energy, the ocean-based renewable energy industry is still in its infancy, and like any new idea there are many unknowns with the potential to affect both people and our natural environments. A permit for marine renewable energy (MRE) must cut...

The antibiotic discovery era (1940-1960) : vancomycin as an example of the era

Creator:: McGraw, Donald J.
Abstract:: An examination of the technical and historical literature concerning the discovery and development of antibiotics suggests the possible existence of an era of discovery. This era appears to have a well-defined beginning (about 1940) and a well-defined close (about 1960). It is the purpose of this dissertation to examine the...

Climate change in the Northwest : implications for our landscapes, waters, and communities

Creator:: Dalton, Meghan M., Mote, Philip W., Snover, Amy K., and Oregon Climate Change Research Institute
Abstract:: Climate Change in the Northwest: Implications for Our Landscapes, Waters, and Communities is a report aimed at assessing the state of knowledge about key climate impacts and consequences to various sectors and communities in the Northwest United States. This report draws on two recent state climate assessments in Washington in...

Evaluating the Attractiveness of Pacific Northwest Native Plants to Insects and Gardeners

Creator:: Anderson, Aaron G.
Abstract:: Due to a growing body of literature documenting declines in pollinator populations, there has been increased public interest in pollinator conservation. In urban and suburban landscapes, many gardeners and urban land managers are interested in gardening for pollinators, particularly bees. Simultaneously, many homeowners and municipalities are interested in other aspects...

Characterization of the Mechanisms of Action and Molecular Targets of Hop-derived Flavonoids in the Mitigation of Obesity-related Metabolic Impairments

Creator:: Paraiso, Ines L.
Abstract:: Obesity is a complex multifactorial disease resulting from excessive energy intake compared to energy expenditure. The excess energy is mostly stored as fat in enlarged adipocytes, but some lipids may infiltrate other organs such as the liver to form ectopic fat. Adipose tissue and ectopic fat produce and secrete a...
