Investigating Alternative Irrigation Strategies and Sources for the Cool-Humid Willamette Valley

Creator:: Olsen, Conner J.
Abstract:: Rising human populations and climate change are putting increasing demands on our already-limited freshwater sources. In response to these concerns, homeowners and municipalities have been encouraged to replace turfgrass – a plant with relatively high irrigation needs – with drought-tolerant plants that do not require frequent irrigation. However, the many...

Seeing the Ocean For the Whales: How Whales Get Lost in the Sea of Human Perceptions

Creator:: McKinnon, Haley
Abstract:: Humans have always been fascinated with whales; from prominent features in mythology, to stories of terrifying monsters on the high seas, to globalized utility, to symbolic wildness and radical environmentalism, to figures and statistics, how have human relationships with whales been understood throughout time? Because humans have a need to...

Bioenergetics individual based model explorations of juvenile coho salmon growth during their first summer on the Oregon shelf

Creator:: Reser, Brendan Alexander
Abstract:: Salmon survival and eventual recruitment success have long been thought to be determined within the first summer following ocean migration. Juvenile growth during this period is largely influenced by ocean conditions such as temperature, prey availability, abundance, and quality. Shifts in these conditions due to climatic perturbations are particularly prevalent...

Tempo and Mode of Diversification in the Neotropical Fish Superfamily Anostomoidea (Ostariophysi: Characiformes)

Creator:: Frable, Benjamin W.
Abstract:: Neotropical characiform fishes form one of the most diverse freshwater ichthyofauna in the world. Knowledge of evolutionary processes that generated and maintain the immense characiform lineage and morphological diversity is still poorly understood. When did characiform lineages diversify? How have major geological and environmental changes affected diversification? Why are some...

Mitigation of Microbiological Water Quality by Last Irrigation-to-Harvest Intervals

Creator:: Emch, Alexander W.
Abstract:: Foodborne outbreaks involving fresh produce have been on the rise since the late 1990's. Pathogens such as Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli are prevalent in agricultural environments and commonly travel between farms via irrigation water. The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) has placed an increased emphasis on microbiological standards of...

Individual Differences in Intuitive Risk Judgments

Creator:: Brunot, Alexander N.
Abstract:: The present research sought to investigate individual differences in the way individuals process intuitive risk judgments. The present investigation is centered on Fuzzy Trace Theory (Brainerd & Reyna, 1991), a developmental dual process theory of cognition which posits two ways in which individuals process information, gist and verbatim processing. 228...

Effects of Novel Sulfur Applications for pH Management of Calcareous Soil in a New Planting of Organically Grown Northern Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) in the Columbia Basin

Creator:: Gregory, Alexander D.
Abstract:: Organically certified Northern Highbush Blueberry (NHB; Vaccinium corymbosum L.) production in the Columbia Basin region of Oregon and Washington is expanding. Soils in the region are typically calcareous and highly alkaline, often requiring pH adjustment to an ideal range of 4.5–5.5 to support the establishment of the acid-loving, ericaceous crop....

Manufacturing Process Design for a Stamped Microchannel High-Temperature Recuperator

Creator:: Song, Chuankai
Abstract:: Microchannel high temperature recuperators have the advantage of higher heat transfer coefficients and lower size and weight than traditional high temperature recuperators. However, the industrial application of microchannel recuperators are restricted by the high cost of photochemical machining and diffusion bonding. The objective of this paper is to introduce a...

Vulnerability and adaptation of Pacific Northwest shellfisheries to ocean acidification

Creator:: Katz, Brian G.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to understand the vulnerability and adaptive capacity of shellfish stakeholders in the Pacific Northwest who are adapting to ocean acidification (OA). This study developed a geovisualization tool of existing environmental data for assessing species-specific risk profiles to OA (based on their exposure and sensitivity),...
