Comparison of Ceilometer, Satellite, and Synoptic Measurements of Boundary-Layer Cloudiness and the ECMWF Diagnostic Cloud Parameterization Scheme during ASTEX

Creator:: Bretherton, Christopher S., Klinker, E., Betts, A. K., and Coakley, J. A., Jr.
Abstract:: Cloud fraction is a widely used parameter for estimating the effects of boundary-layer cloud on radiative transfer. During the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment (ASTEX) during June 1992, ceilometer and satellite-based measurements of boundary-layer cloud fraction were made in the subtropical North Atlantic, a region typified by a 1–2 km deep...

Modulation of respiratory burst activity of trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) phagocytic cells

Creator:: Galvan, Irja S.
Abstract:: In a comparison of the mammalian and fish immune systems many similarities and differences are found. While most of the differences occur in the acquired or lymphoid arm of immunity, the nonlymphoid immune systems of fish and mammals share many similarities. For instance, both animal groups use phagocytic neutrophils and...

Assessment of public awareness of septic systems in rural Benton County

Creator:: Gillett, Christopher S.
Abstract:: The primary objective of this study was two-fold: (1) to assess home owners awareness about issues pertaining to their septic systems; (2) and to determine the effect climate, proper care and maintenance have on septic tank performance in rural Benton County. Participants in this study were randomly selected by Benton...

Development of a variable-speed, doubly-fed wind power generation system

Creator:: Brune, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Generation of electricity from the wind is becoming increasing popular as an environmentally responsible resource. Current methods for generating electricity from the wind involve the use of fixed-speed generators. However, the use of variable-speed generators increases the amount of energy that can be extracted from the wind. Most variable-speed technologies...

Analysis of riparian vegetation age structure and forest land ownership in the Central Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Purnell, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Vegetation along the banks of mountain streams in the western Oregon Cascades comprises an integral part of the transition zone between land and water based ecosystems, and as such, is a vitally important and unique natural resource. Forestry is a major land use in this region, and harvesting riparian vegetation...

Three-dimensional gravity analysis of the Pacific-Antarctic east Pacific rise at 36.5°S, 49.8°S and 54.2°S

Creator:: Enriquez, Kelly D.
Abstract:: Three-dimensional gravity analysis is the process of removing the predictable components from the free-air gravity anomalies and has proven to be useful for interpreting the subsurface structures and active processes at mid-ocean ridges. The three-dimensional effects of the seafloor and Moho topography, assuming a constant crustal thickness and constant crust...

Insights into mammalian DNA replication from analysis of mutations affecting deoxyribonucleotide biosynthesis

Creator:: Mun, Byung-joo
Abstract:: Although the synthesis of DNA precursors is closely coordinated with DNA replication, it is still not clear whether deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) influence DNA replication independently of their interactions with DNA polymerase catalytic sites. In an effort to understand the extent to which rate and fidelity of DNA replication are regulated...

Is the laboratory growth of Pacific oyster spat, Crassostrea gigas, exposed to varying salinities, predictive of their growth in the estuary?

Creator:: Brooks, Christopher
Abstract:: Results of this study suggest that laboratory growth of full-sib families of five month old Pacific oyster spat can be predictive of growth to market size at different grow-out sites. Seven to ten millimeter spat were selected from each of fifteen full-sib families and commercially available polyploids. Each family was...

The effects of nutrition on the zinc sensitivity of Mysidopsis intii

Creator:: Vance, Paul Mitchell
Abstract:: A static-renewal, seven day test was developed and utilized to study the effects of nutrition on the sensitivity of Mysidopsis intii Holmquist to zinc. It was found that juvenile growth was the most reliable and sensitive endpoint that could also reflect the subtle effects of low zinc concentrations and diet...
