Entre crítica e imaginación: El contexto de las relaciones de México y Estados Unidos desde la perspectiva de La frontera de cristal y Gringo viejo

Creator:: Hansen, Tobin M.
Abstract:: What historical and political reality is reflected in the novels Gringo viejo and La frontera de cristal? What is revealed when the characters, plot, and setting of the novels are analyzed against research of the context of U.S.-Mexico relations? We begin to explore these questions by studying three periods crucial...

Creation of a Bilingual Children’s Book to Highlight the Racial and Ethnic Disparities in U.S. Dental Service Utilization

Creator:: Huynh, Daniel T.
Abstract:: Although Latino students make up more than a quarter of the U.S. public school system, only three percent of children’s literature either features a Latino protagonist or is written by a Latino author (Machado et al.). Latinos are therefore severely underrepresented in children’s books. Additionally, studies have revealed that Latino...

How the Portrayal of Women Characters in the Zorro and Robin Hood Stories Has Changed Over Time

Creator:: Rodriguez-Walmisley, Olga B.
Abstract:: This thesis explores how female characters in the Zorro and Robin Hood stories have changed throughout time, from beginnings until present day. I began my analysis by first researching whether Zorro and Robin Hood existed, and found that Robin Hood was most likely a real man who lived during the...

Amphibian communities and climate change : Where ecological processes meet evolutionary interactions

Creator:: Thurman, Lindsey L.
Abstract:: Forecasts of the impacts of climate change have traditionally focused on individual species and their phenotypes, phenology, or distribution. However, shifts in species distributions and the resulting reorganization of community composition represent an important violation to the assumption of species acting in isolation. Whereas species may respond individualistically to climate...

Patterns in responses of an amphibian assemblage to wetland restoration

Creator:: Rowe, Jennifer C.
Abstract:: Wetland restoration success in attaining wildlife conservation goals can be confounded by the presence of multiple biological invaders. Wetland management activities typically target invasive plants, but bottom-up responses of higher trophic levels in novel communities are difficult to predict. We surveyed plant and amphibian assemblages at 26 sites enrolled in...

Elevational differences in UV-B response by the long-toed salamander (Ambystoma macrodactylum)

Creator:: Thurman, Lindsey L.
Abstract:: Global amphibian declines have been attributed to numerous and often synergistic causes, such as invasive species, pathogens, and ultraviolet-B (UV-B) radiation. The effects of these stressors are context dependent and can vary with location, species, and populations. As sensitivity to UV-B has shown inconsistencies across amphibian taxa, it can be...

Una Perspectiva Etnica de la Sociedad Americana

Creator:: Perez, Alfred F.
Abstract:: The existence of the ethnic "barrios" (ghettos) across American society is proof of the legacy of racism, injustice and inequality in society today. In this thesis, the human experiences of Native, African, Mexican, and Asian people, are presented to contradict the notion that the "American Dream" is for all. In...

Invasive bullfrog use of novel ephemeral habitats in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Cook, Megan Tetsuko
Abstract:: Invasive species are a major threat to global biodiversity. Understanding the mechanisms underlying successful invasions is imperative for developing effective management strategies. Plasticity in physiological, morphological, and behavioral traits could be an indicator of invasion potential in non-native species. The invasive American bullfrog (Lithobates catesbeianus) has recently been observed breeding...

Microhabitat associations and behavioral dynamics of co-occurring native Pacifastacus leniusculus and invasive Procambarus clarkii crayfish in Oregon's southern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Hanshew, Brett Alan
Abstract:: Biological invasions are the second largest threat to biodiversity following habitat loss, and studying invasions has been a focus of ecological the past two decades. Despite the intense research, many basic questions remain empirically unanswered, particularly in the realm of behavior. The purpose of this research was to explore the...

Agricultural impacts on amphibian survival, growth, and distributions

Creator:: Baker, Nick J.
Abstract:: The potential impact of chemical contaminants and conservation practices on amphibians in agricultural landscapes is a key research topic globally. Amphibians represent a common group in many freshwater systems and are currently experiencing worldwide population declines. Global amphibian declines may be attributed to a number of causes, including habitat loss,...
