Understanding the Impact of Global Warming on Orographic Rain Shadows: Insights from a Pseudo-Global Warming Simulation over the Western United States

Creator:: Koszuta, Matthew
Abstract:: Some studies using regional climate models (RCMs) suggest a weakening of the climatological rain-shadow along the Cascade and Sierra Nevada mountains during the western US cool-season. To identify the possible mechanisms of rain-shadow weakening under warming, a new set of 30-year, high-resolution (6 km) pseudo-global warming (PGW) simulations were analyzed...

Forest macro-arthropods as potential indicators of ecosystem conditions in Western Idaho : an analysis of community composition, biological diversity, and community structure

Creator:: Ruby, Margaret E.
Abstract:: Adaptive ecosystem management is a new paradigm for managing federal forests which requires regular monitoring of ecosystem function and diversity to measure the effects of management. Managers need new strategies and tools to help them assess their progress in maintaining healthy, productive and biologically diverse forests. Biomonitoring of select forest...

Direct effects of 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin on antigen-presenting cells and molecular signaling pathways in dendritic cells

Creator:: Ruby, Carl E.
Abstract:: In experimentally exposed mice, the environmental contaminant 2,3,7,8 tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) produces significant suppression of adaptive immune responses at low doses. However, the underlying biochemical and cellular mechanisms of TCDD-induced immunotoxicity have remained elusive since the identification of these effects nearly 30 years ago. Antigen-presenting cells (APC) constitute various populations of...

An algebraic view of the symmetry of fast transforms

Creator:: Ruby, Glenn Russell
Abstract:: Why are the fast Fourier transform and the fast Hadamard transform fast? A transform can be computed by multiplying a matrix times a vector, which normally requires 0(n²) operations. The matrices corresponding to these transforms can be rearranged to eliminate redundant computations resulting in O(nlogn) operations. We investigate algebraic reasons...

An analysis of the impacts extractive industries have on African ape conservation and community development - trends towards community involvement in conservation

Creator:: Vise, Ruby S.
Abstract:: Primate populations are declining in number, with an estimated “60% of primate species threatened with extinction from hunting and trapping” (Estrada et al., 2017). The largest threat to mammals in West and Central Africa is commercial hunting (Jost Robinson, Daspit, & Remis, 2011). Hunting these large mammals was once practiced...

Using the IDA Framework to Examine the Relationship Between Regulating Enforcers and the Commercial Trawl Fishery of Newport, Oregon

Creator:: Moon, Ruby
Abstract:: This research uses the Institutional Development Analysis (IDA) framework to examine the relationships between the individual levels of enforcement and the commercial trawl fishermen in Newport, Oregon, to determine if there is a difference in relationships and whether those differences impact compliance. While a difference in the relationships between the...

Influences of phosphate on the growth and nodulation characteristics of Rhizobium trifolii

Creator:: Leung, Kam-tin
Abstract:: Nodulation success by two indigenous Rhizobium trifolii serogroups, 6 and 36, on subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum L.) was affected by the addition of phosphate to Abiqua soil (Ultic Haploxeroll). To understand the impact of phosphorus nutrition on the survival and nodulation characteristics of the two serogroups, studies were carried out...
