We radiocollared a sample of 61 red tree voles in Douglas County, Oregon and
monitored their movements to determine daily, seasonal, and sexual differences in
behavior and home range attributes. We also collected information on nest attributes,
survival, and dispersal of the radiocollared voles. Individual voles were monitored for
periods...
This collection consists of autobiographical essays which center around my father,
my first husband, and my backyard. All of the pieces are recollections, and most occur
either from my study inside the house, or from the deck outside, looking at the yard. The
Preface is the story of how I...
The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...
The effect of sweeteners on fruit flavor perception was studied
through the use of fruitiness power functions for unsweetened and
sweetened model systems. In the first part of the study, two
isosweet concentrations of aspartame and sucrose were determined
and combined with five concentrations of orange and strawberry
flavorants. Fruitiness...
These datasets were used in the prospective meta-analysis of northern spotted owl reproductive rates over 25 years across 11 study areas located throughout the range of the owl. A multi-state occupancy file was created by collapsing site-specific information on owl reproductive status into bimonthly (2 per month) survey occasions. These...

The differential cross section for the reaction k⁻+p[forward arrow] k⁰+[uppercase xi]⁰ was measured in a spark chamber experiment for an incident k⁻ momentum of 1.8 GeV/c. The target was liquid hydrogen confronted
by an anti-coincidence counter to insure neutral particle production.
A 60 element hodoscope signalled the presence of four...
A synthetic approach toward the two major fragments of cathedulin K-19,
euonyminol (4) and dimethyl cathate (69), was investigated. Synthesis of
dimethyl cathate was accomplished in 3 steps starting from 73. Efforts directed
towards the synthesis of euonyminol, a highly oxygenated dihydroagarofuran
sesquiterpene, was advanced to a stage in which...
William James came of age at a time of great social and intellectual change in the United States. During this period, new professional identities proliferated, and a new culture of professionalization developed with important ramifications for conceptions of individual and social identity. Professionalization was also closely related to key intellectual...
This study examines the theme of power in Naguib Mahfouz's The Cairo Trilogy (1956/57). Contrasting my analysis with earlier review of the novel that emphasized a hegemonic patriarchal power, I argue that such power was constantly subverted by the dominated: family members of the patriarch. Using James C. Scott's notions...
