Zinc is an essential micronutrient required for many cellular functions, including
the development and function of the immune system. The biological consequences of
zinc deficiency illustrate the significance of zinc in human health. Zinc deficiency has
been shown to cause the dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immune responses, as...

The goal of this project was to develop and test non-herbicidal techniques that remove nonnative
plant or weed seeds from the top 2 inches of the soil. The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is
currently restoring prairies in the Willamette Valley. Some areas of the Pacific Northwest have
already seen loss of...
Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) is a promising technique for the production of
biologically safe, wear resistant and corrosion protective coatings for orthopedic
applications. In this work, the impact of coating thickness and surface preparation on the
hardness (H), elastic modulus (E), wear resistance, and delamination of ALD Al2O3 films
is...

The DIRT (Detrital Input and Removal Treatments) experiment has been the basis for many analyses on carbon and nitrogen dynamics in relation to detrital manipulation. To this day, no other biogeochemical component has been measured in the DIRT sites. In light of this fact, the objective of my research was...

4-H, an agriculture based youth program, promotes a variety of curricula in both agriculture and Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (S.T.E.M.) topics. However, science based curricula provided by this organization gravitates away from the programs agricultural roots. An effort was made to pilot a test on lesson plans that would...

For many years, scientists worldwide have been using glacial ice to
reconstruct and study Earth’s past climates. While the most continuous
records we have are from sites near both poles, there is also mid-latitude
perennial ice in the form of mountain glaciers and cave ice.
Very little is known about...
