Colonization and extinction in dynamic habitats: an occupancy approach for a Great Plains stream fish assemblage

Creator:: Falke, Jeffrey A., Bailey, Larissa L., Fausch, Kurt D., and Bestgen, Kevin R.
Abstract:: Despite the importance of habitat in determining species distribution and persistence, habitat dynamics are rarely modeled in studies of metapopulations. We used an integrated habitat-occupancy model to simultaneously quantify habitat change, site fidelity, and local colonization and extinction rates for larvae of a suite of Great Plains stream fishes in...

Field and laboratory strength analysis of a forest road in NW Oregon and its association with the formation of ruts

Creator:: Bord, Andrea J.
Abstract:: A one-mile section of a newly constructed forest road in Northwest Oregon was analyzed for various aspects of subgrade and surface strength and their association with the formation of ruts during the first hauling season. Field and laboratory tests were completed on the road and the road materials to determine...

Using Acoustic Measurements and Inventory Data to Estimate Stiffness in Standing Douglas-Fir Trees

Creator:: Delgado Trejo, Jorge Luis
Abstract:: Total US lumber production in 2011 was 77.9 million cubic meters. Its primary use was for housing and construction. There is a growing concern that the structural properties for wood are being reduced as trees are harvested at much younger ages as the wood supply shifts from older to younger...

Optimizing the primary forest products supply chain : a multi-objective heuristic approach

Creator:: Hamann, Jeff D.
Abstract:: This thesis is a collection of four submitted manuscripts that present methods to assist forest ecosystem service managers wanting to develop operational sampling, monitoring, and production plans for a set of specific quantifiable ecosystem services, which are formulated as a series of general multi-objective optimization problems. The problems are solved...

Activation of Co-stimulatory Molecule OX40 Increases Memory T-cell Function and Cytokine Production in Uveitis

Creator:: Hall, Mark
Abstract:: Uveitis is a serious ophthalmological disorder characterized by intraocular infiltration of inflammatory cells. In most cases, uveitis is derived from the adaptive immune response. More specifically, CD4+ T lymphocytes play an important role in the pathogenesis of uveitis by recognizing uveitogenic antigen and orchestrating the immune response. While it is...

Assessment of academic advising models in the OSU College of Science based on student and advisor feedback

Creator:: Aljets, Alexandria Dukes
Abstract:: This study sought to explore the differences between the varied academic advising models in the College of Science at Oregon State University through the feedback of its undergraduate students and advisors. Using parallel surveys of students and their academic advisors, it found that the decentralized and centralized models each had...

Characterization of the Ovine Prolactin Promoter

Creator:: Tan, Taralyn
Abstract:: Approximately five to eight percent of domestic rams demonstrate a sexual attraction towards other rams, directing no sexual behaviors towards estrous ewes. It has been observed that these male-oriented rams (MORs) have a greater abundance of prolactin mRNA than female-oriented rams in the medial preoptic area of the anterior hypothalamus...

Locating Radio Signals Using Software Defined Radio

Creator:: Johnson, Benjamin E.
Abstract:: Locating sources of radio signals can be useful in many applications. From pointing antennas at nearby radio towers to fox hunting, being able to determine the relative location or direction to a radio transmitter can be very useful. Generally, it is necessary to have the current GPS locations of both...

Judicial deference and its potential effect on agency science and natural resource management

Creator:: Grisa, Amanda Marie Schenk
Abstract:: The USDA Forest Services' actions have come under greater scrutiny by a public that has become increasingly concerned with the legality of their actions. Often, challenges involve the quality of science used in the decision-making. Congress has mandated that the agency use the "best available science" in its decision making...
