The relative enrichment of skin sebaceous gland lipids with deuterium-labeled α-tocopherol was compared with plasma enrichment to evaluate the delivery of vitamin E to skin. For the first week of this study, each subject consumed a daily dose of deuterated vitamin E (150 mg of an equimolar mixture of RRR-α-[5-(C²H₃)]-(d₃)...
exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for
NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological
feature within a biophysiographic province. Zumwalt Prairie represents a perfect example
of this concept, containing one of the largest remnants of native...

Representing Plateau Grasslands in the Columbia Plateau
Site 35JA42 represents the first protohistoric village
complex excavated in Southwest Oregon. Analyses of animal
bones recovered from the site offer the first significant
insights into human subsistence behaviors in this region.
Although the faunal assemblage is extremely fragmented,
detailed zooarchaeological analysis indicates that deer were
the primary meat resource...
Local property-owning residents maintain high levels of interest
and awareness regarding a neighboring natural resource complex.
Factors, however, such as proximity, personal interests, use patterns
and economic considerations cause local inhabitants to have an
inaccurate perception of the natural resource complex. The nature
of local resident perception can be analyzed...

We tested closure between in situ radiometric and absorption coefficient measurements by using a nearly backscattering-independent remote-sensing reflectance model that employs the remote-sensing reflectance at three wavelengths. We show that only a small error is introduced into the closure model when the proper functional relationships of f/Q and the backscattering...

During the first full school year of the Covid-19 pandemic, two central contexts for adolescent development—home and school—changed utterly. In Oregon, most middle- and high schoolers attended school entirely remotely from the beginning of the pandemic, in March, 2020, through the end of April, 2021, removing both the supports available...
