Thermodynamic correction for salts in variably saturated porous media

Creator:: Burns, Erick R.
Abstract:: Using thermodynamic principles, the general relationship describing the equilibrium vapor content in the gas phase above a saline liquid and across a curved liquid-gas interface is developed. Since high salt concentration also affects the intensive and extensive liquid properties, it is also necessary to account for these effects in liquid...

Using Remote Sensing and Process-based Growth Modeling to Predict Forest Productivity Across Western Oregon

Creator:: McAdam, Erick
Abstract:: Accurate measurement of forest productivity is fundamental to understand the carbon balance of forested ecosystems. Recent changes in climate highlight the importance of developing methods to measure forest productivity so that sound economic and environmental decision can be made. Efforts to measure forest productivity across the landscape using remote sensing...

Assessing the Trade-Off Between Sustainability and Resiliency of Reinforced Concrete Alternatives in Corrosive Conditions: An LCA-System Dynamics Approach

Creator:: Moreno Rangel, Erick D.
Abstract:: Concrete has been categorized as a key contributor of CO2 (carbon) emissions into the atmosphere. This is mostly associated with the production of ordinary portland cement (OPC). The concrete and cement industries are pursuing a path to reduce their carbon emissions generally in accordance with the climate change goals outlined...

Impact of malolactic fermentation on red wine color and color stability

Creator:: Burns, Tresider R.
Abstract:: Malolactic fermentation (MLF) is an important step in the production of wines and is commonly performed in red or cool climate wines to reduce acidity. In this study the impact of MLF on red wine color and the ability of Oenococcus oeni to degrade compounds important to the development of...

Multi-hazard Damage and Loss Assessment of Bridge Networks

Creator:: Burns, Patrick O.
Abstract:: The overarching objective of this study is to examine and compare the vulnerabilities of bridges combining effects of earthquake-induced ground shaking, ground failure (e.g., landslides and lateral spreading), and tsunami inundation. A parametric study is performed to understand the sensitivity of economic loss and traffic capacity with respect to the...

Consumers' shopping value and their responses to visual merchandise displays in an in-store retail setting

Creator:: Fister, Sarah E.
Abstract:: The purposes of this study were to investigate consumers' responses (aesthetic response, approach response, and perceived risk) to two types of visual merchandise displays (full size mannequin and flat hanging display) in an in-store retail setting. An interest for this study arises from retailers' constant effort to differentiate themselves from...

Crustal architecture and magma dynamics in a large continental magmatic system : a case study of the Purico-Chascon Volcanic Complex, Northern Chile

Creator:: Burns, Dale H.
Abstract:: The ~1 Myr history of the Purico-Chascon volcanic complex (PCVC) records significant changes in the production and storage of magmas in the crust. At ~1 Ma activity at the PCVC initiated with the eruption of a large 80-100 km³ crystal-rich dacite ignimbrite with restricted whole rock ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope ratios between...

Genetic variation as a cause for thermal tolerance in Persian Gulf corals

Creator:: Burns, Grant C.
Abstract:: Climate change is causing the world’s oceans to increase in temperature, threatening many populations of organisms. Corals are of particular concern, due to both their ecological importance and sensitivity to high temperatures. Coral populations in the Persian Gulf, however, have been surviving in normally-lethal thermal conditions. An analysis of specific...

Tempo and Mode of Lineage and Morphological Diversification in a Hyperdiverse Freshwater Fish Radiation (Teleostei : Characiformes)

Creator:: Burns, Michael D.
Abstract:: Characiform fishes form one of the most diverse freshwater fish clades in the world. Comprising more than 2000 species and distributed primarily in South America and Africa, characiforms vary dramatically in their ecomorphology. However, the evolutionary processes responsible for the immense ecomorphological diversity remains unknown. Recently, a study postulated that...
