Quantification of dry concentration factor for Cs-134 in marine diatom Thalassiosira Weissflogii

Creator:: Krzyaniak, Nathan Anthony
Abstract:: The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster of 2011 made it apparent that releases of fission products to marine environments is a very real possibility. Additional data on the movement of material through marine environments can be used by radioecology personnel to assist with both ecosystem protection as well as environmental cleanup...

Chest/breast protectors for female athletes : cushioning properties and effect on selected physiological and performance variables

Creator:: Lawson, LaJean
Abstract:: Female participation in high-contact sports has increased dramatically in the past two decades, raising concern regarding injury to the female breast and the need for protective equipment. While the use of chest/breast protectors by women is advocated, little is known of their efficacy and effect on athletic performance. The purpose...

Development of a functional prototype of an environmental risk assessment parameter database on the World-Wide Web

Creator:: Potter, Nathan Kent
Abstract:: The goal of the project was to develop a functional prototype of an environmental risk assessment parameter database on the World-Wide Web. The ability to develop a consolidated environmental database has become possible due to the phenomenal growth of the Internet and the World-Wide Web over the past few years....

Population Ecology of the Mariana Swiftlet (Aerodramus bartschi) on O'ahu, Hawaiian Islands

Creator:: Johnson, Nathan Christopher
Abstract:: The Mariana Swiftlet (Aerodramus bartschi) (Aves: Apodidae) is endemic to the Mariana Islands, where it currently occurs on Saipan, Aguiguan, and Guam. An introduced population of Mariana Swiftlets is also present on O'ahu in the Hawaiian Islands. Sparing interference with the endangered population in the Marianas, the introduced, surrogate population...

Removal of E. coli with alternative media Biosand filters

Creator:: Fulton, Nathan J.
Abstract:: When Biosand filters cannot be constructed with crushed quarry rock due to resource limitations, a suitable alternative filter media is needed. In this research, two crushed quarry rock alternatives were examined. Three bench-scale Biosand filters with crushed rock, beach sand, and heat-treated beach sand media were simultaneously dosed with Willamette...

Effects of body size on the survival and timing of emigration of newly metamorphosed Northern Red-legged frogs

Creator:: Chelgren, Nathan D.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the survival and movements of newly metamorphosed Northern Red-legged frogs (Rana aurora aurora) as they emigrated from two ephemeral breeding ponds. Quantifying survival and movement rates will be important to our understanding how changes to terrestrial and aquatic systems affect behavior and...

Timescales and tectonics of oceanic plateaus : long-term evolution of Ontong Java Nui and Rio Grande Rise

Creator:: Davidson, Peter C.
Abstract:: Oceanic plateaus are regions of overthickened oceanic crust and are often thought to form from the interaction of mantle plumes with oceanic lithosphere. These regions can cover vast areas of the ocean basins and represent a highly elevated magmatic flux relative to normal mid-ocean ridge spreading. Oceanic plateaus are considered...

Human-eagle interactions on the lower Columbia River

Creator:: McGarigal, Kevin
Abstract:: During the past decade (1978-87), breeding success and productivity of bald eagles on the lower Columbia River (LCR) has been far below state and regional averages and well below levels required for delisting under the Endangered Species Act by the Pacific States Bald Eagle Recovery Plan. Human disturbance was suspected...

Survival, movements and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) on the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon and northwestern Nevada

Creator:: Crawford, Justin A.
Abstract:: I investigated survival, movements, home range sizes, and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) in southeastern Oregon and northwestern Nevada from June 2005 to June 2007. I trapped 298 rabbits on four sites and fitted each with radio transmitters. More than 13,000 locations of telemetered rabbits were recorded. I...

Determining the relationship between measured residence time distributions in lateral surface transient storage zones in streams and corresponding physical characteristics

Creator:: Coleman, Anthony M.
Abstract:: Surface transient storage (STS) in stream ecosystems serve an important function in retaining nutrients and refugia for aquatic communities. Unfortunately, they can retain contaminants as well. Therefore, it is of importance to determine the residence time distribution (RTD). A RTD of a particular STS zone encompasses the time it takes...
