Bulldozer blades and colliding submarine mountain chains : constraints on central Oregon convergent margin tectonics from magnetics and gravity

Creator:: Fleming, Sean W.
Abstract:: Magnetic and gravity modelling was completed along two E-W transects offshore central Oregon. These models indicate that the backstop-forming western edge of the Siletz terrane has a seaward dip of approximately 40° to 49° at 44°48'N, shallowing to ~28° at 44°1 1 'N. This is a well-determined result, given available...

Identification, Quantification, and Risk Assessment of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons and their Derivatives in Soil after Steam Enhanced Extraction

Creator:: Santiago Delgado, Lisandra
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are environmental contaminants produced mainly from the incomplete combustion and pyrolysis of organic matter. PAHs are among the major contaminants at over 800 Superfund sites, nationwide. Thermal remediation is used as a method to remediate soils contaminated with PAHs through the use of heat to mobilize...

Synthesis, characterization, and analysis of nitroaromatic compounds

Creator:: McIntosh, Melissa Luana
Abstract:: Nitroaromatic compounds have important chemical applications and can be found in nature as pollution sources. Synthetic nitroaromatic compounds have been used in a variety of materials including explosives, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics, and pesticides. These compounds can find their way into the environment through normal or improper disposal methods. Poly-aromatic compounds...

Utilization of the Zebrafish Model for Investigating Nitrated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Developmental Toxicity

Creator:: Chlebowski, Anna C.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most widely known and studied environmental contaminants, originating from a range of natural and anthropogenic sources. PAHs are known to occur in the environment as complex mixtures, containing both unsubstituted PAHs, as well as a range of PAH derivatives. Among the less-studied of...

Cometabolism of Chlorinated Ethenes by Burkholderia vietnamiensis G4 Grown on Aromatic Substrates: Resting and Co-encapsulated Cell Kinetic Tests

Creator:: Saito, Alyssa M.
Abstract:: The cometabolic ability of Burkholderia vietnamiensis G4 grown on aromatic substrates was first assessed by resting suspended cells, and subsequently for cells encapsulated with and without slow release compounds (SRCs). In Chapter 3, benzyl alcohol was assessed as a food-grade growth substrate for promoting cometabolism of trichloroethene (TCE), via the...

Low Level Quantification of 1,4-Dioxane and Investigation of 1,4-Dioxane Co-Metabolism by Mycobacterium sp. 1A.

Creator:: McKeage, Kevin J.
Abstract:: 1,4-Dioxane (dioxane) is a probable human carcinogen and is often found comingled with chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbon (CAH) contamination since dioxane is used as a stabilizer in CAH solutions. Dioxane is miscible in water, has a low K[subscript ow], low H[subscript cc], and is highly recalcitrant in the environment. The presence...

Tracking semi-volatile organic pollutants in remote lake systems

Creator:: Usenko, Sascha
Abstract:: SOCs volatility and persistence properties cause many SOCs to become ubiquitous in the environment as well as accumulate in areas with lower temperatures such as polar or orographic regions. Many anthropogenic SOCs pose a serious risk to human and ecosystem health because of their persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic properties in...

Application of nitrogen stable isotopes to identify sources of nutrient pollution : a management tool?

Creator:: Redon, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Nutrient pollution may perhaps be one of the oldest water quality problems and has recently been considered as one of the greatest threats to estuarine and coastal waters. Excessive nutrient loads have had a vast array of impacts on estuarine and coastal ecosystems globally. Direct negative effects include: shading out...

Local scale spatial and temporal variation in wet deposition of persistent organic pollutants by snow

Creator:: Walsh, Christopher D.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to assess the variability of POP deposition by snow on a 10 km spatial scale by measuring the POP concentrations in fresh-fallen snow from remote alpine sites. Samples of pre-metamorphic snow were concurrently collected from three remote alpine sites, of matched altitude and exposure,...
