The estuarine-dependent brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus aztecus, is a significant commercial fishery and important species in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) ecosystem as well as being a key component in energy transfer between benthic and pelagic food web systems. Because of the economical and ecological importance of brown shrimp, we developed...

The estuarine-dependent brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus aztecus, is a significant commercial fishery and important species in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM) ecosystem as well as being a key component in energy transfer between benthic and pelagic food web systems. Because of the economical and ecological importance of brown shrimp, we developed...
Self-objectification occurs through the internalization of unrealistic social standards of attractiveness which leads to excessive valuing of one’s physical features over functionality. Previous studies have associated self-objectification with a host of negative consequences including two opposing exercise-related outcomes, public exercise avoidance and exercise dependence. The main purpose of the present...
Oregon State University researchers are expanding their study of mineral nutrition in winegrapes as part of a project sponsored by the Wine Advisory Board. Further research is justified because of increasing grower interest in nutritional factors that affect production and quality. Winegrape growers utilize Oregon State University's Plant Analysis Laboratory...
Gamma ray bursts are some of the brightest events in the entire observable universe. Since the late 1960’s, thousands of gamma ray bursts have been observed and they have been researched extensively. However, there are still many mysteries which remain unsolved. One such mystery is whether or not the viewing...
The goal of this dissertation was to improve our abilities in acquiring critical in vivo data by establishing embryo-larva zebrafish as an exemplary model to quantitatively evaluate cancer progression. The living environment that encompasses a tumor has a significant effect on how cancer develops, grows and metastasizes. In order to...
Cascadia’s 1700 earthquake generated a tsunami and widespread subsidence along Pacific Northwest coastline. The tsunami deposited sandy sediments in many Oregon coastal estuaries, such as Alsea Bay. Although the recurrence of subduction-generated megathrust earthquakes and tsunami events in this region are recorded in the stratigraphy, knowledge of the full inland...
Both travel times and amplitudes of large offset refracted and reflected arrivals
observed during GLIMPCE (Great Lakes International Multidisciplinary Program on
Crustal Evolution) along line A in Lake Superior have been modeled using two-dimensional
ray tracing techniques. Forward modeling was used to iteratively refine an
initial velocity model that was...
