Geology and geochemistry of the Oregon mountain area, southwestern Oregon and northern California

Creator:: Vail, Scott Garret
Abstract:: The Oregon Mountain area contains an ophiolitic assemblage of rocks which can he divided into two major zones on the basis of lithology: (1) spilite and diabase, with minor chert, and (2) plagiogranite, hornblende gabbro, cumulate gabbro and cumulate ultramafic rocks. The two zones have a total estimated thickness of...

Response of wood-boring beetles (Coleoptera: Buprestidae, Cerambycidae) to prescribed understory burning in mixed-conifer stands of southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Duane, Maureen V.
Abstract:: Prescribed burning is increasingly being used as a management tool to reduce potential fuels on the forest floor and promote stand vigor through removal of dense, crowded vegetation. Because fire affects both the standing vegetation and the amount of downed wood in the ecosystem, it is imperative to examine how...

Geology of the Ventura and Soledad Basins in the vicinity of Castaic, Los Angeles County, California

Creator:: Stitt, Leonard Timothy
Abstract:: Surface and subsurface mapping are combined to determine the geologic history along the San Gabriel fault near the town of Castaic. Palomas Gneiss, Whitaker Granodiorite, and Pelona Schist are basement terranes encountered in the subsurface. West of the San Gabriel fault, basement is unconformably overlain by marine middle to late...

Surface and subsurface geology of the Santa Barbara-Goleta metropolitan area, Santa Barbara County, California

Creator:: Olson, Daniel J.
Abstract:: The Santa Barbara-Montecito and Goleta basins are structurally continuous fault-controlled Pleistocene basins containing up to 3000 feet (925 m) of marine Pleistocene Santa Barbara Formation which were deposited on previously deformed Sisquoc and older strata. Structures subcropping against the unconformity at the base of the Santa Barbara Formation show that...

Superposed compressional and extensional strain in Lower Paleozic rocks of the northwestern Grant Range, Nevada

Creator:: Camilleri, Phyllis A.
Abstract:: The Grant Range, in east-central Nevada, is a north-east trending range bounded on the west by a west-dipping normal fault system. Rocks within the range record a complex polyphase Mesozoic ductile compressional and Cenozoic brittle extensional deformational history. The northwestern Grant Range exposes deformed, regionally metamorphosed and unmetamorphosed, Cambrian to...

Headwater stream characterization : an energy and physical approach to stream temperature using distributed temperature sensing

Creator:: Roth, Travis R.
Abstract:: Headwater streams are an integral part of the ecological health of the greater stream network as they provide valuable biological habitat, provide upwards to 95% of total in channel flow, while providing downstream reaches with important constituents such as sediment and woody debris. Small headwater streams are particularly susceptible to...

Historical land use and its impact on Oak Creek, Oregon

Creator:: Yamaguchi, Keiko, 1964-
Abstract:: The purposes of this study were:1) to review the land use history of Oak Creek watershed since European settlement. And 2) to consider the human-caused impacts and their effects associated with different land uses. The study area was classified into three land use patterns: residential,agricultural, and forested areas.Since the European...

Genomics-enabled exploration of insect toxicity in the Pseudomonas fluorescens group

Creator:: Rangel, Lorena I.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas is a diverse genus of Gamma proteobacteria that are ubiquitous in the natural environment, including soil, water, plant surfaces, and animals. The Pseudomonas fluorescens group is a diverse collection of seven subgroups and more than 50 named species. This group is known for their production of a variety of...

Early Math Enrollment in Washington State Community Colleges

Creator:: Harri, Ed J.
Abstract:: More than half of students in Washington state community colleges enroll in developmental mathematics, but a relatively small percentage of these students persist to the second year. Many students place into these courses and never enroll; others enroll at some point after the first academic term, even when faced with...
