Using GIS to illustrate the geospatial and socio-ecological intersection between climate change, energy production, and sustainable fisheries management in Oregon

Creator:: Cohn, Leanne A.
Abstract:: There could be a geospatial and socio-ecological intersection between climate change, energy production, and sustainable fisheries management in the United States. Marine renewable energy generation efforts are currently being planned, studied, and initially implemented in the country as a response to climate change. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is...

Fabrication of a flexible glucose sensing catheter for human implantation

Creator:: Matthews, David J.
Abstract:: Flexible electronics processing techniques were applied to integrate a glucose sensor with a hormone-delivery catheter in order to create a cheap and minimally invasive method for patients with type 1 diabetes to continually monitor and control their blood sugar levels. Ultimately, this work intends to move toward the development of...

Lamprey of the Goose Lake Basin: A Multi-Scale Habitat & Distribution Analysis

Creator:: Dickey, Jacob C.
Abstract:: Two ecologically important lamprey species found in the endorheic Goose Lake Basin face conservation threats; however, relatively little is known about their habitat needs or spatial distribution. Lamprey and their habitat are often found to be patchy; to evaluate these relationships for the lamprey in this basin, I utilized a...

An Integrated Approach to Gauge the Effects of Global Climate Change on Headwater Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Bury, Gwendolynn W.
Abstract:: Climate change is predicted to affect ecosystems, including systems already stressed by human impacts. One ecosystem that is already highly impacted by human land use is the cold headwater stream system of the Pacific Northwest. One method of assessing the function of an ecosystem is by using an indicator species....

Watershed-level patterns among stream amphibians in the Blue River watershed, West-Central Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Hunter, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Most recent research on stream amphibians in the Pacific Northwest has focused on associations with reach-level or stand-level environmental features. Little is known about landscape-level distributions of these species or landscape-level aspects of their life-histories. I used a watershed-wide sample and logistic regression to develop models and maps of probability...

Signatures in the Subsurface - Big & Small Data Approaches for the Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Geologic Properties & Uncertainty Reduction

Creator:: Rose, Kelly Kathleen
Abstract:: Despite more than two centuries of exploration, including more than six million deep wellbores with depths exceeding 40,000 feet in some parts of the world, our ability to constrain subsurface processes and properties remains limited. Characteristics of the subsurface vary and can be analyzed on a variety of spatial scales....

Post-harvest establishment influences ANPP, soil C and DOC export in complex mountainous terrain

Creator:: Peterson, Fox S.
Abstract:: The link between aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and resource gradients generated by complex terrain (solar radiation, nutrients, and moisture) has been established in the literature. Belowground ecosystem stocks and functions, such as soil organic carbon (SOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and belowground productivity have also been related to the...

Detection and Segmentation of Bird Song in Noisy Environments

Creator:: Neal, Lawrence W.
Abstract:: Recent work in machine learning concerns the detection and identification of bird species from audio recordings of their vocalizations. Such analysis can yield valuable ecological information concerning the activity and distribution of species in the wild. Current species-identification methods require individual syllables of bird audio as input, but field-collected audio...

The influence of biophysical feedbacks and species interactions on grass invasions and coastal dune morphology in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: Zarnetske, Phoebe Lehmann
Abstract:: Biological invasions provide a unique opportunity to study the mechanisms that regulate community composition and ecosystem function. Invasive species that are also ecosystem engineers can substantially alter physical features in an environment, and this can lead to cascading effects on the biological community. Aquatic-terrestrial interface ecosystems are excellent systems to...

Interactive visualization of diversity in multivariate data sets unified across fields of study

Creator:: Pham, Tuan N. T.
Abstract:: The study of the diversity of multivariate objects shares common characteristics across disciplines, including ecology and organizational management. Nevertheless, experts in these two disciplines have adopted somewhat separate diversity concepts and analysis techniques, limiting the ability of potentially sharing and cross comparing these concerns. Moreover, while complex diversity data may...
