The expansion of Catholicism : an exploration of St. Joseph's College, the first Catholic boarding school for boys within the Oregon territory

Creator:: Hill, Cayla L.
Abstract:: St. Joseph's College was located within St. Paul, Oregon, the first Roman Catholic mission in the Pacific Northwest. The St. Paul mission was finally established in 1839 by Father Francois Blanchet, four years after the French-Canadian settlers in the area, appropriately known as French Prairie, had requested the presence of...

Caution! High Water: A Historical Archaeological Investigation of the Champoeg Townsite (ORMA26) after the 1861 Flood

Creator:: Hill, Cayla L.
Abstract:: The Champoeg townsite first developed due to its ideal settlement and trade location within the Willamette Valley, becoming the ‘legal birthplace of Oregon’ in 1843. However, by 1860 Champoeg’s significance had begun to decline, and in December of 1861 a devastating flood wiped out the townsite. Archaeological excavations took place...

Insight into Western Stemmed Tradition cultural patterns based on analysis of Pit Feature 95 at the Cooper's Ferry Site (10IH73), Idaho

Creator:: McPherson, Gabrielle
Abstract:: Excavations at the Cooper’s Ferry site (10IH73) revealed a long record of repeated human occupation extending from the late Pleistocene into the early Holocene (~16,000-10,000 cal BP) and have yielded unique insights into the Western Stemmed Tradition (WST), which includes. Several studies have focused on WST pit features encountered at...

Archaeological Textile Fragments Present an Opportunity In the Study of Social and Landscape Interactions

Creator:: Lopez, Kirsten M.
Abstract:: Textiles (including basketry, cordage, woven, knotted, or plaited products) make up a considerable portion of the perishable archaeological record in dry caves of the northern Great Basin region, much of which is created from plants and plant fibers. The archaeological study of precontact textiles greatly informs our understanding of how...

High Order Finite Elements SN Transport in X-Y Geometry on Meshes with Curved Surfaces in the Thick Diffusion Limit

Creator:: Woods, Douglas N.
Abstract:: The high-order finite element S[subscript N] transport equations are solved on several test problems to investigate the behavior of the discretization method on meshes with curved edges in X-Y geometry. Simpler problems ensured the correct implementation of MFEM, the general fi nite element library employed. A convergence study using the...

Discrete Ordinates Radiation Transport using High-Order Finite Element Spatial Discretizations on Meshes with Curved Surfaces

Creator:: Woods, Douglas N.
Abstract:: We spatially discretize the Sn transport equation using the high-order (HO) discontinuous finite element method (DFEM) on HO meshes. Previous work provided a proof-of-concept for this spatial discretization method in X-Y geometry. Included in the present work, we derive a spatial discretization for the Sn transport equation in both X-Y...

Comparing Random and Nonrandom Spatial Patterns of Artifacts within Lithostratigraphic Unit 3 at Cooper’s Ferry, Idaho

Creator:: Gregory, Alex R.
Abstract:: Archaeological investigations at the Cooper's Ferry site in Western Idaho have recovered cultural remains dating to 16,000 years ago, suggesting the oldest human occupation recorded in North America. However, many archaeologists have argued the initial peopling of North America occurred no earlier than the opening of an ice-free corridor between...

Improving the representation of large landforms in analytical relief shading

Creator:: Marston, Brooke E.
Abstract:: Relief shading is the most common type of cartographic relief representation for print and digital maps. Manual relief shading results in informative and visually pleasing representations of terrain, but it is time consuming and expensive to produce. Current analytical relief shading can be created quickly, but the resulting maps are...

Diversity, Generalization, and Specialization in Plant-Pollinator Networks of Montane Meadows, Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Helderop, Edward
Abstract:: Despite the importance of plant-pollinator interactions for ecological communities, few long-term observational studies have been conducted of plant-pollinator networks. Using four years of plant-pollinator interaction data from 18 meadows in the Willamette National Forest, Oregon, this thesis examined how meadow size, the amount of nearby meadow habitat, weather, degree days,...

Boredom, Buttons, and Booze: The Lifeways of an Enlisted Soldier Stationed at Fort Hoskins (35BE15), Oregon

Creator:: James, Shane P.
Abstract:: In 1976-77 and 2010, Oregon State University (OSU) excavated portions of the enlisted men’s barracks and privy at Fort Hoskins, a Civil War-era fort. In operation from 1856 to 1865, this fort served as part of a security network to protect and monitor the recently created Coast Indian Reservation. The...
