  • Predicting dose and cell survival distributions for brachytherapy sources

    Creator:
    Stringham, Michael J.
    Abstract:
    The focus of this thesis is to determine the biological impact of dose from brachytherapy sources commonly used in cancer treatment. To achieve this goal, the Monte Carlo code PENELOPE was used to simulate point sources of four different isotopes (¹⁰³Pd, ¹²⁵I, ¹³⁷Cs, and ⁹⁰Sr) in an infinite medium of...

  • An assessment of plant community structure, herbivory, soils, and state-and-transition theory on a winterfat (Krascheninnikovia lanata [Pursh] A.D.J. Meeuse & Smit) ecological site

    Creator:
    Matney, Casey A.
    Abstract:
    State-and-transition models (STMs) have been successfully used to describe ecological dynamics in woodlands, shrublands, grasslands, and several other ecosystems. Changes in vegetation and soil are measured to gauge and predict plant community dynamics within ecological states and transitions between alternative ecological states. Ecological states and their boundaries are defined by...

  • Effects of plant community characteristics on insect abundance : implications for sage-grouse brood-rearing habitat

    Creator:
    Ersch, Erica A.
    Abstract:
    A causative factor in declining greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) populations is reduced annual recruitment due to poor habitat quality. Sage-grouse population decline is concurrent with a decline in the extent and quality of the sagebrush (Artemisia sp.) biome. However, current research has shown a positive relationship between sage-grouse brood and...

    Abstract:
    Cancer is class of diseases that has great diversity and unfortunately is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. Chemotherapy remains an important cancer treatment modality, and superior chemotherapeutic drugs are constantly being sought. Gemcitabine is an anti-tumor chemotherapeutic drug and it is the first line...

    Abstract:
    Anaerobic digestion of lipid-extracted algal biomass has been proposed as a method to recover and recycle nutrients in algal biofuel systems. The purpose of this study was to quantify recoverable nitrogen and phosphorus from anaerobically digested C. vulgaris. Recoverable nutrients were deemed those present in the liquid phase of anaerobic...

  • Quantifying the impacts of riparian cattle grazing at Soap Creek Ranch near Corvallis, Oregon

    Creator:
    McArthur, Cynthia
    Abstract:
    A documented case history of riparian grazing at Oregon State University's Soap Creek Ranch was conducted from 1999 to 2001. Impacts of four different riparian grazing treatments were evaluated. Emphasis was placed on investigating the relationship between riparian cattle use and water quality. Through a series of carefully designed and...
