A macroscopic to microscopic study of the effects of barotrauma and the potential for long-term survival in Pacific rockfish

Creator:: Pribyl, Alena L.
Abstract:: Depleted species of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) from the Northeast Pacific experience high discard mortality due to "barotrauma," induced from the rapid change in pressure during capture. Research suggests rockfish have the potential to survive barotrauma if immediately recompressed, but the potential for long-term recovery is unknown. In this project, we...

Environmental justice and energy production : coal-fired power plants in Illinois

Creator:: Clark, Catherine
Abstract:: The environmental justice framework has been applied to many environmentally negative issues in the past such as toxic storage and disposal facilities, toxic release inventory sites, air quality, transportation, and global climate change. It has not yet been applied to energy production in a quantitative study. This study investigates the...

Estimation and Sparse Selection of Conditional Probability Models for Vector Time Series

Creator:: Ruiz, Trevor D.
Abstract:: Diverse scientific fields collect multiple time series data to investigate the dynamical behavior of complex systems: atmospheric and climate science, geophysics, neuroscience, epidemiology, ecology, and environmental science. Identifying patterns of mutual dependence among such data generates valuable knowledge that can be applied either for inferential or forecasting purposes. Vector autoregressive...

Decanting values of the environment: A comparative case study in the Willamette Valley’s wine industry

Creator:: Cogle, James M.
Abstract:: The Oregon wine industry is growing and becoming increasingly valuable to the regional economy. As with many production industries, the wine industry has faced concerns around its environmental practices and community impact. The use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, fertilizers, and associated wastewater run-off are a few issues vineyard managers experience....

Erosion Narratives: Applying the Narrative Policy Framework to Louisiana's Coastal Erosion Narrative

Creator:: Lade, Andrew
Abstract:: South Louisiana has a major coastal erosion problem, exposing coastal communities to storm surge. The state is spending billions of dollars on projects that are not expected to last beyond 20 years. Research indicates that predominate stories influence problem definitions and solutions. Colten (2017) identified a shift in Louisiana's coastal...

A Practical, Ethical Critique of Hydraulic Fracturing and the Shale Gas Extraction Process

Creator:: Bullock, Claude George, III
Abstract:: This thesis analyzes the emerging technology of hydraulic fracturing and shale gas extraction process through a pluralistic philosophical approach. Rather than defending traditional values in nature, such as intrinsic value, I defend a metaphilosophical pragmatism centered on policy implications. I argue that different philosophical positions will, most of the time,...

The Social Construction of the Metallic Mining Industry: The Divergent Cases of the Mining Moratorium Bill (Wisconsin) and the Permit Streamlining Bill (Minnesota)

Creator:: Harewood, Alessandra G and Harewood, Alessandra G.
Abstract:: Hardrock mining is associated with severe environmental and economic costs. Of particular concern is acid mine drainage which has contaminated several thousand kilometers of streams across the United States representing a formidable danger to watershed health. Given the high risks of this activity, ensuring high regulatory standards may be an...

Sources and perceptions of controversy in establishing a protected area for biodiversity : a case study in the New River Area of Oregon

Creator:: Erickson, Dana C.
Abstract:: The process of land acquisition for the conservation of plants or wildlife habitat can raise controversial issues, issues often perceived differently by the individuals and groups involved. After the land acquisition process is completed, there is rarely an opportunity to analyze the differing perceptions of the issues and their relative...

Stream Chemistry in the Oregon Coast Range: Spatial and Temporal Variation

Creator:: Carini, Lya
Abstract:: Hydrological and biogeochemical processes occurring throughout a watershed are typically reflected in stream water chemistry, including in coastal watersheds. While Oregon Coast Range streams have been studied in the past, there is a dearth of knowledge in terms of seasonal temporal trends and spatial variability that this study seeks to...
