RINs and biofuel mandates : comparing ethanol and biodiesel markets

Creator:: Ainsworth, Joel H.
Abstract:: The United States Congress set out to increase the blending of biofuels by updating and implementing the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2) in 2007. The new mandate required that a combination of 36 billion gallons of ethanol, biodiesel, and cellulosic biofuel be blended annually, by 2022. To offset the cost of...

Mapping Santa Cruz Island, California soils using a Geographic Information System and field survey

Creator:: Butterworth, Joel B.
Abstract:: Soils of Santa Cruz Island, California were mapped at the subgroup taxonomic level using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and field survey. Lithologic substrate, vegetative cover, slope gradient and slope aspect comprised the GIS data layers; these correspond to the soil-forming factors that were hypothesized to exert the greatest influence...

How the Progression of Nuclear Technology in French Culture Has Led to a More Sustainable Country

Creator:: Moreno, Joel T.
Abstract:: Of the major players in the birth and growth of nuclear technology, France and the United States are two of the biggest. Their glaring differences in culture and political regimes, therefore, have resulted in two very different attitudes toward adoption and implementation of nuclear power. Through extensive literary research, cultural...

Spatial Ecology and Species Interactions among Predators and their Prey

Creator:: Ruprecht, Joel S.
Abstract:: Carnivores have disproportionate effects in ecological systems but understanding their exact influences on ecosystems is a matter of great complexity and debate. Predators directly impact prey by killing them, and indirectly by modifying their behavior in response to predation risk. Yet how species interact, both among members of a carnivore...

Electronic Conduction and Ionic Diffusion in (Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅)TiO₃-(Bi₀.₅K₀.₅)TiO₃-based Thin Films, Electronic Conduction and Ionic Diffusion in (Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-(Bi0.5K0.5)TiO3-based Thin Films

Creator:: Walenza-Slabe, Joel
Abstract:: Solid solutions based on the perovskite ferroelectrics Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅TiO₃ (BNT) and Bi₀.₅K₀.₅TiO₃ (BKT) might someday replace current Pb-based ferroelectric and piezoelectric devices. This is one goal of the Restrictions on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) guidelines seeking to limit Pb in consumer devices. Although the Bi-based ferroelectrics are well suited to the task...

CAM : a new Circuit Augmentation Method for modeling interconnects and passive components

Creator:: Kolstad, Joel W.
Abstract:: Contemporary circuit design involves significant computer-based simulation, calling for a balance between circuit model accuracy and simulation run time. Traditionally, circuit modelers concentrated on producing either (1) physically-based models, where each element in the model correlates to a physically meaningful aspect of the device being modeled or (2) mathematically-based "macromodels,"...

Distribution, form, and signigicance of plant opal in Oregon soils

Creator:: Norgren, Joel A.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to increase knowledge of opal phytoliths in plants and soils of Oregon, and thus encourage further use of phytoliths in future pedologic investigations. Content of plant opal in needles from ten common Oregon conifer species ranged from 0.2 to 7.9%. Western larch (Larix occidentalis) contained the...

Nowcast/forecast of storm surge and drawdown using a hybrid FE/ANN approach

Creator:: Darnell, Joel T.
Abstract:: In the northwestern Gulf of Mexico there is a need for reliable water level forecasts to facilitate safe commercial navigation, marine construction, and emergency management. Though the low amplitude tides of the region can be predicted with conventional harmonic techniques, frequent strong storms make accurate forecasts of water levels difficult....

Exploring Volcano-Tectonic Connections in Cascadia – Temporal Linkages between Tephra Deposition and Megathrust Earthquakes

Creator:: Gutierrez, Joel C.
Abstract:: Explosively erupting volcanoes and megathrust earthquakes (Mw 8+ magnitude) occur at subduction zones and adjacent volcanic arcs. Volcanic eruptions are observed occurring close in time to megathrust earthquakes in the historical record from at least the 18th century CE to present in locations globally, including Japan in 1707 CE (Chesley...

Sputtered Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) thin films on copper foil substrates, Sputtered Pb(Zr₀.₅₂Ti₀.₄₈)O₃ (PZT) thin films on copper foil substrates

Creator:: Walenza-Slabe, Joel
Abstract:: Pb(Zr₀.₅₂Ti₀.₄₈)O₃ (PZT) thin films are of interest for their large dielectric permittivity, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric properties. The material has been widely studied for use in high frequency transducers, multi-layered capacitors, and ferroelectric random access memory. Copper foils are an inexpensive, flexible substrate with a low resistivity which makes them ideal...
