Creator:: Elwood, David E.
Abstract:: With energy prices rising and increasing concern about the influence of fossil fuels on climate change, wave energy systems are on the verge of commercial implementation. These first generation wave energy converters utilize either pneumatics or hydraulics to convert the mechanical energy of waves into electricity. For the last several...

Creator:: Ochs, Michael
Abstract:: Volatile hydrophobic compounds (HOCs) brought into soil and sediment systems represent a serious threat to the environment. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) may exert an important influence over the total aqueous solubility and mobility of organic pollutants through their incorporation into micelles or the formation of soluble complexes. To date, however,...

Creator:: Gunderson, Jeremey Tyson
Abstract:: Many D2d-symmetric 2,2',6,6'-tetrasubstituted biphenyls are readily prepared via net oxidative dimerization of appropriate 1,3-disubstituted benzenes. Conversion of such proprochiral compounds to useful C2-symmetric chiral biphenyls requires formal replacement of two substituents on opposing aryl ring units with alternate groups. This under exploited desymmetrization tactic has been demonstrated for the generation...

Creator:: Gregg, Tiffany
Abstract:: This study aims to improve knowledge of how suspended particulate matter (SPM) affects hydrophobic contaminant transport in the lower Columbia River and its estuary, using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) as model compounds. It is hypothesized that PAHs are transported to the estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM), a prime feeding zone in...

Creator:: Alkire, Matthew Buckley
Abstract:: Dramatic and ongoing changes pervading the Arctic and subarctic seas over recent decades have motivated this effort to track and better understand hydrographic variability using chemical tracers. Particular emphasis has been paid to differentiating freshwater contributions to upper layers: namely Pacific water, meteoric water, and sea-ice melt/formation. Data collected in...

Creator:: Schrlau, Jill E.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to compare four different media that were used to monitor SOC atmospheric concentrations in remote ecosystems. The accumulation of semi-volatile organic compounds, including pesticides, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), was investigated in lichen, 2-year old conifer needles, resin-based passive air sampling...
