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...

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...

Irrigation choices for major West Coast crops : water scarcity and climatic determinants

Creator:: Olen, Beau
Abstract:: Recent climate change forecasts have aroused growing interest in the influence of water scarcity and climate on agricultural production and irrigation practice. However, it is common in the economic literature to aggregate disparate crops when modeling irrigation choices. That approach confounds the crop-specific effects of climate and water scarcity that...

An econometric analysis of used tractor prices

Creator:: Bayaner, Ahmet
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...

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...

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...

Using GIS to analyze the relationships between open space and property values

Creator:: Pavich, Steve M.
Abstract:: The conservation of open space will become increasingly important as populations expand and undeveloped land is converted to urban uses. The benefits derived from open space conservation include protecting and improving water quality, providing wildlife habitat, maintaining scenic amenities and rural character, and supplying certain recreational opportunities. This study utilizes...

The optimal allocation of watershed conservation funding : a case study of the John Day River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Skelton, Katharine
Abstract:: This study determines the optimal allocation of watershed conservation funds in the John Day River Basin, Oregon. Fund managers can use a variety of targeting schemes to allocate their limited resources. Depending on which targeting criteria is used, they may or may not be achieving the maximum environmental benefits per...

An economic analysis of hardwood treatment in loblolly pine plantations--a whole rotation dynamic programming approach

Creator:: Valsta, Lauri
Abstract:: To accomplish an economic evaluation of vegetation management in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) at regeneration and a subsequent release time, two existing growth models were linked together in a dynamic programming analysis. The first model (Burkhart and Sprinz, 1984) provides a projection of stands regenerated with varying hardwood components...
