Estimating the value of irrigation water transferred to instream flow : A case study of Umatilla County, Oregon

Creator:: Ugrinska, Monika P.
Abstract:: Agricultural water supplies are becoming increasingly uncertain in the western United States due to elevated demands from competing water users, environmental restrictions on surface water withdrawals as a result of the establishment of the Endangered Species Act in 1973, and potential climatic changes. Since many rural communities in the West...

Synchronization in a CMOS technology

Creator:: Flannagan, Stephen T.
Abstract:: The problem of synchronization arises in the interaction among digital systems not sharing a common clock reference. The reliability of synchronizers is related to metastable operation of bistable elements. Because of its subtle nature, the phenomenon until recently was not widely researched. However, the literature now contains a sound theoretical...

The impact of extended fisheries jurisdiction on global fishery markets : the case of Alaska pollock from the U.S. West Coast

Creator:: Gancho, Paula
Abstract:: The increased US domestic production of surimi from the US Pacific Coast after 1977 is a major consequence of the US's extended fisheries jurisdiction to 200 nautical miles. It is only one consequence, however, whose nature can best be understood by examining the surimi market in the context of what...

Economic costs of long-term sea level rise on the Oregon coast : A case study of the Siletz Littoral Cell

Creator:: Fleck, William K.
Abstract:: Given the broad scientific consensus that global climate is changing, it is no longer a question if sea level will rise, but rather by how much will it rise. The regional estimates for the Eastern Pacific suggest that the Northwest coastlines will experience a greater eustatic sea level rise than...

Improved viewshed modelling for estimating effects of neighboring land uses on property values

Creator:: Gjesdahl, Jacob E.
Abstract:: The effect of land uses on neighboring property values is of critical interest to urban planners, developers, and citizens. Property values are in part defined by built structure and lot characteristics, locational attributes (e.g., proximity to amenities and disamenities), and other features such as views from a property. The effects...

Abstract:: Farm equipment is becoming an increasingly important financial asset for many farmers. Tractors probably represent the single largest component of equipment asset value. As such, changes in tractor values can have a dramatic effect on a farmer's financial situation. Changes in equipment value can be attributed to depreciation and the...
