Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of a tumor-promoting phorbol ester, a calcium ionophore and indomethacin on bovine luteal oxytocin (OT) synthesis and secretion and progesterone secretion. Six 18-month-old crossbred beef heifers in Exp. 1 and five similar heifers in Exp. 2 were observed twice daily for estrus using...
The product of my internship was a working draft of a land use and master plan
for the SPC to review. The draft is to be used for creating a more comprehensive land use
and zoning master plan. Attempts were made to incorporate input from federal, state,
and local governments,...
Growing evidence indicates that disrupting the microbial community that comprises the intestinal tract, known as the gut microbiome, can contribute to the development or severity of disease. As a result, it is important to discern the agents responsible for microbiome disruption. While animals are frequently exposed to a diverse array...

Coastal Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) are known
to spawn in the southern California Bight from January
to March, migrate north during late spring and summer
to feed off Oregon, Washington, and British Columbia,
and then move back to southern California in the fall.
Juvenile Pacific hake nursery areas have been...
The intensity and scale of wildfires has increased throughout the Pacific Northwest in recent decades, especially within the last decade, destroying vast amounts of valuable resources and assets. This trend is predicted to remain or even magnify due climate change, growing population, increased housing density. Furthermore, the associated stress of...
Mercury (Hg) is a globally distributed environmental
contaminant with a variety of deleterious effects
in fish, wildlife, and humans. Breeding songbirds may be
useful sentinels for Hg across diverse habitats because they
can be effectively sampled, have well-defined and small
territories, and can integrate pollutant exposure over time
and space....
