This study identified some of the ways that multiethnic women describe their ethnic
identities, how they perceive ethnic-specific gender identities and what they think are
appropriate norms for, and effective outcomes of, communicative behavior. Twelve
multiethnic women described their ethnic identity names or labels, and ethnic-specific gender
identities; they also...
Anammox (anaerobic ammonium oxidation) bacteria are capable of providing low-cost nitrogen removal for numerous types of wastewaters. However, low growth rates cause long startup-times and inhibition by oxygen and metabolic substrates necessitate close process control to maintain performance. Incorporation of Simultaneous Anammox and Denitrification (SAD) into constructed wetlands could provide...
A dissertation describing the results of a series of greenhouse experiments conducted to better understand phytoremediation in stormwater bioretention systems.
This biological assessment (BA) documents the potential effects of existing Forest Service (FS) Land and Resource Management Plans (LRMPs), or 'Forest Plans' and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Land Use Plans (LUPs) on the Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis), hereafter referred to as the lynx. LRMPs and LUPs are collectively referred...
Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of contaminants of great concern due to their toxicity and ubiquity in the environment. Remediation efforts historically have focused on granular activated carbon (GAC) because of its low maintenance and relatively low cost. However, GAC is not PFAS selective and is especially...
Oregon educational reform efforts are moving ahead with the support of legislation,
business and industry, and education. There has been little apparent consideration given to
the readiness of tenth graders to make career choices even though the research in the area of
career maturity indicates that students at this period...
There have been many changes in American society since the 1960's dealing with civil rights and the labor force. These areas, in turn, have influenced and been influenced by changes in education such as Title IX and Title II. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sex-equity characteristics...
The 105,000 x g supernatant fluid (S[subscript HS]) from extracts of pea seedlings
(Pisum sativum, var. Alaska) etiolated for 60 hours yielded a
very potent adenosine triphosphatase activity. This activity was designated
as an apyrase when the reaction stoichiometry indicated that
adenosine triphosphate (ATP) was hydrolyzed to adenosine monophosphate
(AMP)...
