An ecosystem service approach to inform reactive nitrogen management in the lower Yakima River Basin, Washington

Creator:: Crowell, Morgan
Abstract:: Spatially explicit ecosystem service valuation (ESV) allows for the identification of the location and magnitude of services provided by natural ecosystems to human activities along with a measure of their significance based upon economic valuation. While ESV has been used to provide new insight into land use management, few studies...

From the Bayous to the Bay: Increasing Houston’s Regional Urban Forest Sustainability and Public Health through Regional Trail Networks

Creator:: DuBois, Joshua, B.
Abstract:: Greenway trails have become a popular way to connect communities, increase public health and provide ecosystem services. Urban forests provide similar and overlapping benefits as greenways but are often unknown and underfunded. Integrating urban forest management with greenway management could be a way to create synergistic benefits for the community....

Eastward Routing of Glacial Lake Agassiz Runoff caused the Younger Dryas Cold Event

Creator:: Leydet, David J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to analyze an abrupt case of climate change in the past as a means to understand the mechanisms that force climate change. By looking to past analogs of climate change, we hopefully will gain an understanding of these events, which could be used to...

Cost  analysis  of quarantine  zone  size  and control  policy  for  an invasive  forest  pathogen 

Creator:: Hall, Kim M.
Abstract:: Quarantines and control programs are two policy tools used to prevent and reduce the damages caused by invasive species. Quarantines restrict the movement of material that could spread invasive species. Their requirements impose costs on businesses within the quarantine zone by creating barriers to trade and increasing production costs, which...

Determinants of Willingness to Pay for Forest Recreation Based on Payment Type Using Contingent Valuation: A Practical Application for Forest Managers

Creator:: Klee, Amanda
Abstract:: Previous studies have utilized different techniques (e.g., contingent valuation and travel cost methods) to understand users and non-users willingness to pay for natural resources, including their use of recreation areas. These techniques enable the calculation of public support, demand, and potential revenue that may influence future policy, conservation methods, land...

The Relationship Between Force Plate Derived Eccentric Rate of Force Development and ELEIKO Vmaxpro Derived Eccentric Motion Rate of Force Development

Creator:: McCarthy, Benjamin
Abstract:: Eccentric rate of force development (ECC RFD) is a measure of the rate at which muscles can generate decelerative forces. However, it has traditionally been measured while jumping on force plates, which are not easily accessible or easy to use in a practical setting. With technology advancements it may be...

Evaluating potential marine reserves in Oregon : assessing community involvement and potential effects to ocean dependent stakeholders

Creator:: Murphy, Melissa
Abstract:: Over the last three decades Oregonians have been engaged in a protracted discussion about Marine Spatial Planning. In the last twenty years the discussion has centered on the protection of Oregon’s natural marine resources and has taken on various labels such as marine gardens, conservation areas, marine sanctuary, and marine...

The effects of a S.M.A.R.T. goal setting and self-monitoring intervention on physical activity and fitness in middle school students

Creator:: McDonald, Samantha M.
Abstract:: A large body of evidence suggests physical activity is inversely associated with several cardio-metabolic risk factors among children and adolescents. Despite these health benefits, a majority of youth are not meeting the physical activity guidelines set forth by the USDHHS. Schools have been identified as an ideal vehicle for interventions;...
