Development, evaluation and application of a mixed-family selective breeding method for the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas)

Creator:: Matson, Sean Erik
Abstract:: This dissertation develops mixed family selection for Pacific oysters using marker-based pedigree reconstruction. It focuses on improving the efficiency of parentage assignment, determining the optimum life stage to mix oyster families for rearing and selection, comparing mixed-family and separate-family selective breeding in the field, and applying the mixed method to...

Wavelet analysis : linking multi-scalar pattern detection to ecological monitoring

Creator:: Anthony, Jill Ada Marie
Abstract:: Wavelet analysis is an analytical and modeling tool for optimizing sampling efficiency and accuracy, particularly in the context of designing long-term, large-scale monitoring plans. As a pattern analysis method that accommodates and preserves non-stationarity, wavelet analysis provides novel visualization and analytical capabilities for increased insight into interactions between multi-scalar heterogeneous...

Cleaning and Sanitizing Surfaces on Produce Farms: Optimizing What, How, and When

Creator:: Ohman, Erik
Abstract:: Production of fresh produce takes place outdoors, and therefore, is exposed to many routes of contamination (e.g., soil, contaminated water, manure, etc.) by human pathogens. Although precautions are taken to reduce this risk, pathogens can be regularly introduced to produce handling facilities. To manage the risk of cross-contamination from potentially...

Chlamydiae Enhance Self-Antigen Presentation in a Mechanism that is Dependent on Biosynthesis of Lipooligosaccharide

Creator:: Cram, Erik D.
Abstract:: Chlamydia is a genus of obligate intracellular bacteria that undergo a unique, biphasic developmental cycle. The infectious and metabolically inert Elementary Bodies (EBs) begin the cycle of infection by attaching and invading a host cells. Once inside, the EBs differentiate into the metabolically active, dividing Reticulate Bodies (RBs) within their...

Public Participation in Urban Policy – Solution Papers Founded on Objectivity and Mutual Respectfulness

Creator:: Zarins, Eriks
Abstract:: In recent times, public policy debates in the United States have been very contentious and dysfunctional. To help improve this situation, a multi-discipline research effort was conducted to look at "solution papers" as a form of public participation. Specifically, the roles of objectivity and mutual respectfulness were under consideration. Foundational...

Electrochemical modeling of cathodic protection systems applied to reinforced concrete structures

Creator:: Muehlenkamp, Erik B.
Abstract:: A numerical model for the cathodic protection of steel in reinforced concrete is developed. Parameters are set to represent a three-dimensional section of a bridge beam exposed to the atmosphere and coated with a thermally sprayed zinc anode. Both diffusion of oxygen and conduction of charge within the concrete are...

GravenErikP1990.pdf

Creator:: Graven, Erik P.
Abstract:: Surface geology, seismic data, petroleum exploratory well data, and water well data have been used to analyze the structural and tectonic history of the southern Willamette Valley. Tertiary strata beneath the southern Willamette Valley appear to have had an early Cascade or Clarno volcanic source to the east by the...

A study of the relationship of academic achievement in accounting courses to the readability of required textbooks and the reading ability of two-year accounting students

Creator:: Peterson, Erik Alfrid
Abstract:: Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the degree to which the readability of accounting textbooks and two-year accounting students' reading ability were related to academic achievement. Procedure This research used two designs. Design one consisted of two samples from the population of two-year accounting students. One sample...

Stability of gravel at artificially created spawning beds in uncontrolled streams

Creator:: Helland-Hansen, Erik Andreas
Abstract:: Twenty-five gabion-type structures across the main stem and tributaries of the Siuslaw River in the Oregon Coastal Range, installed to expand the available spawning area for fish, were investigated for their ability to perform gravel control functions such as trapping bedload carried by the stream or holding gravel placed behind...

Landscape composition around northern spotted owl nests, central Cascade Mountains, Oregon

Creator:: Swindle, Keith A.
Abstract:: This study describes the composition of forest landscapes surrounding northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) nests in the central Cascade Mountains of Oregon. I compared forest composition around 126 owl nests in 70 pair territories with forest composition around 119 points drawn randomly from all terrestrial cover-types, and around 104...
