Analysis of habitat features and abundance of young-of-the-year fishes off of the central Oregon coast

Creator:: Haven, Katlyn, Wakefield, W. Waldo, Brodeur, Richard, and Yergey, Matthew
Abstract:: Over the last several years, the Northwest Fisheries Science Center, in collaboration with the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission and Oregon State University, has been sampling young-of-the-year groundfishes and other small demersal fishes along the Newport Hydrographic (NH) line. An important question concerning these surveys is whether the NH line...

Coastal ocean variability inferred from high resolution models : two case studies

Creator:: Mauch, Matthew L.
Abstract:: In this thesis, high resolution ocean models are used to evaluate and forecast coastal ocean variability in two different applications. In the first study, the 2-km resolution ocean circulation model for the Eastern Bering Sea is utilized to understand whether slope-interior exchange along the path of the Aleutian North Slope...

Hydrogen isotopic composition of C₃₇ alkenones and the ecology and physiology of coccolithophores

Creator:: Wolhowe, Matthew D.
Abstract:: A three-part study was conducted into the impact of physiological and ecological variables on the net isotopic fractionation of hydrogen, α[subscript K₃₇], expressed in C₃₇ alkenones. First, alkenone-producer production, abundance, and export were characterized in the summertime Gulf of California and Eastern Tropical North Pacific using compound-specific, labeled in situ...

Understanding the Impact of Global Warming on Orographic Rain Shadows: Insights from a Pseudo-Global Warming Simulation over the Western United States

Creator:: Koszuta, Matthew
Abstract:: Some studies using regional climate models (RCMs) suggest a weakening of the climatological rain-shadow along the Cascade and Sierra Nevada mountains during the western US cool-season. To identify the possible mechanisms of rain-shadow weakening under warming, a new set of 30-year, high-resolution (6 km) pseudo-global warming (PGW) simulations were analyzed...

Volatile mobility of trace metals in volcanic systems

Creator:: Loewen, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Semi-volatile trace metals like Li, Cu, Mo, Sn, In, and Pb have the potential to track mobility of a volatile phase in volcanic systems. In this dissertation four studies are presented that either directly investigate or are motivated by observations of trace metal behavior in volcanic systems. A common tool...

Late Holocene Earthquake History Recorded in Alluvial Fan Sequences, Panamint Valley, Eastern California

Creator:: Sethanant, Israporn
Abstract:: The Panamint Valley fault zone (PVFZ) is an active, dextral-oblique normal fault that partially accommodates dextral shear across the Eastern California Shear Zone (ECSZ). The fault system has a complex geometry, characterized by a relatively high-angle dextral oblique normal fault in the south and a low-angle detachment system that accommodates...

Characterizing drivers of microbial community structure and function in diverse marine sediments

Creator:: Graw, Michael F.
Abstract:: Marine sediments are one of the largest habitats for microbial life on earth. These microorganisms play critical roles in biogeochemical cycling both within the subsurface and between the sediment and water columns. However, microbial communities in sediments are highly heterogeneous and the factors defining microbial community structure and metabolic function...

Deciphering Quaternary Geomagnetic, Glacial, and Depositional Histories Using Paleomagnetism in Tandem with Other Chronostratigraphic and Sedimentological Approaches

Creator:: Reilly, Brendan T.
Abstract:: Stratigraphy and chronology are essential to sedimentological study of Earth system histories. And, stratigraphy and chronology are often challenging and interesting problems themselves. The Quaternary (2.588 Ma - present) experienced paleoenvironmental and paleo-geomagnetic variability well outside the range of the recent instrumental record, providing the opportunity to place recent observations...

Deep-sea sediment paleomagnetism : a case study from the North Atlantic

Creator:: Strano, Sarah Elianna
Abstract:: Sedimentary records from the North Atlantic, instrumental in the development of modern paleo-geomagnetic concepts, show a highly variable field even during times of constant polarity. Yet, our understanding of how the magnetization is acquired in the sediments is poorly understood. Primary magnetizations preserved in deep-sea sediments are known to be...
