dependence and regulation of relatively large local populations? If so, what are the causative mechanisms and their implications? We conducted an eight-year multigeneration study of population dynamics of bicolor damselfish (Stegastes partitus) inhabiting four large coral reefs in the Bahamas. After a four-year baseline period, it was clear that two...

Purpose: Model-based dose calculation algorithms (MBDCAs) have become clinically available within the past several years in commercially available brachytherapy planning systems. This work investigates the application of a 510(k) approved MBDCA Acuros™ BV and establishes a reproducible method of validation. The research is broken into three primary research goals. The...
Over 100 monthly bacterioplankton DNA samples, from each of the surface and 200 m depths at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site, were analyzed for community assembly processes. Correlation networks, filtered for potential autocorrelation artifacts, were constructed for each depth. Network characteristics for the two depths were remarkably similar...
Seasonal diet and food selection of California quail (Callipepla
californica) were studied at E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Oregon,
during 1985 to 1987. Analysis of diets of 105 quail, along with
information from 117 quail taken during 1976 to 1978 revealed 14 key
plant foods. Collectively, the key foods composed 87%...
In recent years, the general public has recognized the dangers of a high fat diet and
are demanding meat with lower fat content. This demand has stimulated research in the
growth and regulation of adipocytes. However, despite much effort, no adipocyte-specific
plasma membrane markers from any species are available as...
A concern which has restricted the use of parthenocarpic pickling cucumbers in the
United States has been firmness of fruit processed by brining. Fruit firmness and defects
of parthenocarpic and nonparthenocarpic pickling cucumbers were evaluated in 1992 and
1993. Fruits were produced with or without pollination by growing plants with...
This thesis examines the motivations of ecological restoration volunteers with the Oregon chapter of The Nature Conservancy. This study helps fill in voids left by a lack of research on the motivations of ecological restoration volunteers. Studies that have explored restoration volunteer motivation relied largely on surveys that revealed altruistic...
