MackGregoryS1983.pdf

Creator:: Mack, Gregory Stebbins
Abstract:: The Grants Pass Batholith of Cretaceous age has intruded the Triassic Applegate Group and metasedimentary rocks of the Jurassic Galice Formation in the Murphy area of Josephine County, southwest Oregon. The Applegate Group, mafic volcanic and sedimentary rock, has been partially (nonequilibrium) metamorphosed under greenschist facies conditions. The batholith, a...

Uncertainties in, and interpretation of, carbon flux estimates using the eddy covariance technique

Creator:: Loescher, H. W., Law, B. E., Mahrt, Larry, Hollinger, D. Y., Campbell, J., and Wofsy, S. C.
Abstract:: Whole ecosystem carbon dioxide (CO₂) exchange estimated with the eddy covariance (EC) technique has been central to studies on the responses of terrestrial ecosystems to disturbance and intra‐annual and interannual variations in climate, but challenges exist in understanding and reducing the uncertainty in estimates of net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of...

Toward biologically meaningful net carbon exchange estimates for tall, dense canopies: Multi-level eddy covariance observations and canopy coupling regimes in a mature Douglas-fir forest in Oregon

Creator:: Thomas, Christoph K., Martin, Jonathan G., Law, Beverly E., and Davis, Kent
Abstract:: We sought to improve net ecosystem exchange (NEE) estimates for a tall, dense, mature Douglas-Fir forest in the Oregon Coast range characterized by weak flows, systematic wind directional shear, and limited turbulent mixing throughout the diurnal period. We used eddy covariance (EC) observations at two levels and concurrent biological measurements...

Semi-volatile organic compounds and developing organisms : accumulation in California mountain tadpoles in the field and fish embryo exposures in the laboratory

Creator:: Stanley, Kerri A.
Abstract:: The atmospheric transport and deposition of semi-volatile organic compounds (SOCs), including current and historic use pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), to mountain ecosystems may result in the exposure of tadpoles to these SOCs. This exposure has been implicated in amphibian population declines in California. Tadpoles encounter...

Cultural controls for suppressing Phytophthora cinnamomi root rot of blueberry

Creator:: Yeo, John R.
Abstract:: Phytophthora cinnamomi is a soilborne pathogen that causes root rot disease of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). When new installations of susceptible blueberry cultivars are infected with P. cinnamomi, plants often fail to grow significant new tissue, greatly reducing yields over the life of the planting. Chemical fungicides are available...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: increase soil electrical conductivity (EC) beyond current recommended salinity guidelines for blueberries

Wardrobe expenditures of women employed full-time in five occupational categories

Creator:: Van Slyke, Ruth E.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine and compare annual work wardrobe expenditures, work wardrobe expenditure influences, and selected demographic characteristics of women employed full-time in five occupational categories: professional and technical, managerial and administrative, sales, clerical, and other. The survey questionnaire included an itemized list of 37 wardrobe...

Influence of nitrogen form ratio and calcium on greenhouse and field performance of watermelon

Creator:: Lamb, Michael J.
Abstract:: Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai var. Crimson Sweet) was seeded in a commercial peat mix in multicell containers (72 cells-tray⁻¹, 40 cm³-cell⁻¹) in July 1989 and April 1990. In 1989, the medium was amended with CaC0₃ at 10% w:v. In 1990, no CaC0₃ amendment was made. Watermelon seedling...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: in plant growth with increasing Ca was greater in 1990 than 1989, due to higher medium EC

Accumulation of dietary polychlorinated biphenyl by rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)

Creator:: Lieb, Andrew James
Abstract:: This study was conducted to investigate the accumulation of dietary polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) by a Mt. Shasta strain of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). A commercial mixture of PCB's (Aroclor 1254) was added to the diet at a level of 15 ppm on a dry weight basis. Accumulation of PCB's was...

Functional profiles of soil microbial communities in second-growth Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: McGinnis, Megan L.
Abstract:: Forests are one of the largest repositories of terrestrial C. Understanding factors that drive organic matter transformations and nutrient efflux from these systems is therefore highly important. Temperate forests are of particular significance due to the large fraction of C that is stored below ground in the soil. Characterizing nutrient...

A genome scale metabolic network for rice and accompanying analysis of tryptophan, auxin and serotonin biosynthesis regulation under biotic stress

Creator:: Dharmawardhana, Palitha, Ren, Liya, Amarasinghe, Vindhya, Monaco, Marcela, Thomason, Jim, Ravenscroft, Dean, McCouch, Susan, Ware, Doreen, and Jaiswal, Pankaj
Abstract:: Background: Functional annotations of large plant genome projects mostly provide information on gene function and gene families based on the presence of protein domains and gene homology, but not necessarily in association with gene expression or metabolic and regulatory networks. These additional annotations are necessary to understand the physiology, development...
Resource Type:: Article
Full Text:: InterPro, Gene Ontology, MetaCyc, and Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers were enriched with annotations
