Putative Pheromones In The Urine Of Male Moose: Evolution Of Honest Advertisement?, Chris Linda Whittle Dec 1999

Putative Pheromones In The Urine Of Male Moose: Evolution Of Honest Advertisement?, Chris Linda Whittle

Biological Sciences

I tested hypotheses about how olfactory communication is related to mating behavior in Alaskan moose (Alces alces gigas). Males dig rutting pits where urine is deposited to which females strongly respond. Consequently, male urine may contain primer pheromones that synchronize estrus of females. Urine samples were collected from captive moose on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. Samples included those from the mating season and from the nonrutting period for two adult males, one yearling male, and one male and one female calf. After pH adjustment, samples were extracted with methylene chloride to yield 3 fractions (acidic, neutral, and basic), which were …


Studies On The Ecological Physiology Of Porphyra Abbottae And Porphyra Torta (Rhodophyta): Development Of New Species For Mariculture In Alaska, Jan Marie Conitz Dec 1999

Studies On The Ecological Physiology Of Porphyra Abbottae And Porphyra Torta (Rhodophyta): Development Of New Species For Mariculture In Alaska, Jan Marie Conitz

Fisheries

Environmental factors affecting the distribution and growth of Porphyra abbottae and Porphyra torta were studied in a research project on the feasibility of nori mariculture in southeast Alaska. In situ abundance of Porphyra abbottae was compared at sites in Sitka Sound, Cross Sound and Chatham Strait. Growth of laboratory cultured Porphyra torta gametophytes was studied in response to nutrients, salinity, crowding and substrate. The seasonal progression of abundance in Porphyra abbottae varied between study sites, with associated differences in water motion and temperature. Double sampling techniques improved accuracy of in situ abundance estimates. Germination and initial growth of cultured Porphyra …


The Fecal Porphyrin Profile In River Otters As A Biomarker Of The Effects Of Oil Exposure, Christopher Taylor Dec 1999

The Fecal Porphyrin Profile In River Otters As A Biomarker Of The Effects Of Oil Exposure, Christopher Taylor

Marine Biology

The use of profiles of fecal porphyrins in river otters as a biomarker of the effects of oil exposure was investigated. A high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed to quantify porphyrins and compared to a spectrofluorometric method. Profiles of porphyrins were characterized in fecal samples collected at oiled and nonoiled areas in Prince William Sound following the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Levels of porphyrins in fecal samples indicated a temporal pattern of physiological stress and recovery similar to that described by other biomarker studies. Profiles of porphyrins were also characterized in fecal samples from southeast Alaska and contributed to the …


Acute Toxicity Of The Oil Dispersant Corexit 9500, And Fresh And Weathered Alaska North Slope Crude Oil To The Alaskan Tanner Crab (C. Bairdi), Two Standard Test Species, And V. Fischeri (Microtox Assay), Sara Louise Rhoton Dec 1999

Acute Toxicity Of The Oil Dispersant Corexit 9500, And Fresh And Weathered Alaska North Slope Crude Oil To The Alaskan Tanner Crab (C. Bairdi), Two Standard Test Species, And V. Fischeri (Microtox Assay), Sara Louise Rhoton

Marine Biology

Toxicity assays of the oil dispersant Corexit 9500, and fresh and weathered Alaska North Slope (ANS) crude oil were conducted on Alaskan tanner crab larvae (Chionoecetes bairdi) under cold-region conditions, the reference species, Mysidopsis bahia and Menidia beryllina, and Vibrio fischeri (Microtox bioassay). Acute 96-hour toxicity data for C. bairdi were calculated using the response 'affected' (decreased phototactic response and ability to swim). C. bairdi were most sensitive to non-dispersed weathered oil (EC₅₀=0.4 mg/L), least to dispersant-only solutions (EC₅₀=1,267 mg/L), and were typically more sensitive than the reference species. Dispersant-only solutions were consistently least toxic for all species tested. Dispersed …

Nonprofit Welfare-To-Work Programs: A Study Of The Programmatic Factors Related To Success For Single Tanf Women In Readiness Programs, Kathy Guidi Dec 1999

Nonprofit Welfare-To-Work Programs: A Study Of The Programmatic Factors Related To Success For Single Tanf Women In Readiness Programs, Kathy Guidi

Master's Theses

This research project was a qualitative study with data collected primarily through interviews with three constituencies of welfare-to-work job readiness programs: TANF (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families) clients, nonprofit agency staff, and Department of Human Services (DHS) CalWORKs Department employment specialists. Specifically, six TANF clients, six nonprofit agency staff, and two DHS CalWORKs Department employment specialists were interviewed by the researcher. The study was conducted to determine which programmatic factors were related to success for single T ANF women participating in nonprofit organizations' work readiness programs in San Francisco. Program factors were divided into four areas: program model/structure, program curriculum, …

Faculty And Student Perceptions Of Effective Clinical Teachers, Patricia Frontczak Dec 1999

Faculty And Student Perceptions Of Effective Clinical Teachers, Patricia Frontczak

Masters Theses

The purpose of this study was to identify ADN faculty and ADN student perceptions of the most effective clinical teaching characteristics (ECTC). An exploratory, descriptive design was implemented. ADN faculty and ADN students were surveyed using the Clinical Teacher Characteristics Instrument (CTCI). The CTCI consists of 20 characteristics of clinical teachers that are ranked on a five point Likert-type scale according to importance. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Significant differences in perceptions of the most ECTC between the two groups were identified by a Mann Whitney U procedure. A t-test was performed to identify differences of perceptions …
