This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
Our objectives were to determine if dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) and source of anions influence periparturient feed intake and milk production, and to characterize feeding behavior of dairy cattle during the transition period. Diets differed in DCAD (cationic or anionic) and anionic supplement (BioChlor®, Fermenten®, or anionic salts), and were...
An experiment was conducted with 27 multiparous Holstein and 27 multiparous Jersey cows to determine if nicotinic acid (NA) supplementation during the prepartum phase of the transition period decreases lipolysis and improves dry matter intake and to determine if Holstein and Jersey cows respond similarly to NA supplementation. Cows were...
Biological interrelationships between the ambrosia beetle
Xyleborus dispar (F.) (Coleoptera:Scolytidae) with its symbiotic
fungus, Ambrosiella hartigii Batra (Fungi Imperfecti) were investigated
in western Oregon.
Postdiapause adults of X. dispar collected in March through
June with rotary nets, and excised from overwintered and newly
attacked host material, produced a single generation...
The purpose of my thesis is to recognize the social injustice that existed in France 20 years ago and continues to result in social dysfunction today. I have used the film La Haine (dir. Mathieu Kassovitz, 1995) to examine past events in France’s history and have compared them to more...
Understanding which factors motivate farmers to adopt certain practices is an important part of helping to solve many agri-environmental issues. This study uses 19 interviews with farmers along Oregon’s Willamette River, a statewide producer survey, and select interviews with organizations and agencies active in the farming community to examine the...
In a mostly abandoned block, capped by concrete, the building at 210 East 1st Street, The Dalles, Oregon still stands as one of three remaining structures. This building housed the Wing Hong Hai Company, a mercantile store and Chinese laundry, from 1889 to 1926. Beneath the modern concrete that encircles...
Twenty-six Holstein and 18 Jersey multiparous cows in a randomized block design were assigned by calving date and breed to a non-anionic prepartum diet (CTRL) or a treatment diet containing a commercial anionic salt supplement (Animate®). Control and treatment diets were formulated to a dietary anion-cation difference (DCAD) of 21.3...
An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of dietary copper (Cu)
on Cu status and lipid metabolism in Holstein and Jersey cattle. Eight Jersey and8
Holstein cows in mid-lactation were blocked by days in milk (169 ± 37) and
assigned at random to one of two diets. Cows received...
A field study was conducted to assess phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) concentrations of both lactating and dry cow diets on Oregon's dairies. Thirty-seven dairy farms, located in western Oregon, were grouped according to geographic region, valley (V) or coast (C), and herd size, small (S) or large (L). Farms...
Using GIS, this study creates a predictive model of a distinct population of French-Canadian settlers, highlighting shared environmental characteristics of known sites that may have factored into their decision-making process as they chose locations for their farmsteads. While traditional historic and archaeological research has been conducted on French Prairie, the...
For many species of oceanic dolphins, photo-identification and genetic data indicate that these island-associated populations are demographically isolated from pelagic populations and that island-associated populations exhibit very different patterns of movement and habitat use. Melon-headed whales (Peponocephala electra) are generally considered a pelagic dolphin, but have been documented around oceanic...
This thesis examines archaeological material in order to explore gender and ethnicity issues concerning fur trade era families from a settlement in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. Ethnohistorical information consisting of traders journals and travelers observations, as well as documentation from the Hudson's Bay Company, Catholic church records, and genealogical information...
The Newell Farmstead (35MA41) archaeological site lies in the heart of the French Prairie in the Willamette Valley in the Champoeg State Heritage Area, Oregon. The integrity and depth of deposition have made the Newell site a unique opportunity to look at activity areas and domestic life of early Euro-American...
L'augmentation de la demande des ressources naturelles littorales entraîne des situations de plus en plus nombreuses de proche cohabitation entre plusieurs usages côtiers. Le développement de ces usages s'est réalisé à des époques différentes ou de façon contemporaine mais en parfaite harmonie, jusqu'à un certain point d'occupation spatiale et d'accaparation...
En vertu du principe de préservation des stocks naturels et au delà, de la viabilité d'une industrie des pêches, l'attention des pouvoirs publics est, à l'heure actuelle, essentiellement portée sur la diminution des capacités de production[1]. Une mesure globale de ces capacités de production mises en oeuvre pour la capture...
Dans un marché de libre concurrence, certains paramètres tels que la saison de pêche et la taille des produits halieutiques ont une très grande importance sur la fixation des prix et la volonté à payer du consommateur. Afin de valider ces données, des échantillons de palourdes de l'Atlantique (Spisula solidissima),...
Cette communication s'intéresse à l'essor que connaît l'aquaculture en Thaïlande depuis quelques années dans le but de mettre en évidence certaines répercussions socio-économiques provoquées par le développement accéléré de cette activité. L'auteur présente le cas d'un village côtier du sud-est thaïlandais où la transformation récente d'un territoire rizicole en une...
La pêcherie martiniquaise se trouve aujourd'hui dans une situation paradoxale : d'un côte elle se veut résolument moderne de par 1) les embarcations et des outils de production de plus en plus sophistiqués (coques rapides sur-motorisées, GPS, etc.) que les pêcheurs acquièrent a grands frais; de l'autre, elle reste séculaire...
