Web-Site Generator 3 (WebSiteGen3) is a rapid application development (RAD) tool that generates ASP.NET forms to insert, query, update and delete data stored in the user tables in a SQL Server 2000 database. WebSiteGen3 uses a graphical user interface to show the user tables in a hierarchical tree based on...
In this project we implemented WebSiteGen2, which is a software tool that automatically generates HTML pages and server-side scripts for a Web-based database application. A user of WebSiteGen2 can select the tables and columns for which HTML pages and server-side scripts are generated. The menus for this selection process are...
Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) is a standard for estimating soil loss caused by rainfall and overland flow. The current software tool that implements this standard is RUSLE 1.06b, which is a stand-alone DOS application. In this project, we converted the DOS application to a Web application, which we...
WebGen 5 is a software tool for automatically generating Web scripts that display Web forms and operate on data in a database. WebGen 5 is implemented as a collection of templates. Each template, combined with a corresponding configuration file, generates one of the following six types of Web scripts: search,...
We have developed a framework for Web-based GIS/database applications which allow users to insert, update, delete, and query data with a map interface displayed by Web browsers. The framework was designed so that a Web-based GIS application that uses ArcIMS as a map server can be easily created, customized, and...
We have developed a framework for Web-based GIS/database (WebGD) applications
that allow users to insert, query, and delete data with map interfaces displayed by Web
browsers. The framework uses such open source software packages as Minnesota
MapServer, PostGIS, and PostgreSQL. With this framework, we can create the map
interface of...
WEPP (Water Erosion Prediction Project) is a stand-alone Windows application for predicting water erosion from overland flow on a hillslope. This application was developed by the National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory (NSERL). To make the WEPP application more accessible and easy to use, we created a web version of WEPP,...
Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool (Web-PST) is a web-based software application for evaluating the potential risk of pesticides on the surrounding environment. It uses the formulas and standards specified by the Soil/Pesticide Interaction Screening Procedure Version II (SPISP II). Web-PST closely models the stand-alone Windows application Windows Pesticide Screening Tool (WIN-PST)....
We have developed a web-based software tool for evaluating the potential risk of pesticides on the surrounding environment. The software tool is called Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool (Web-PST). It uses the formulas and standards specified by the Soil/Pesticide Interaction Screening Procedure Version II (SPISP II). Web-PST closely models the stand-alone...
We developed a Web-based GIS/database application designed to help motel businesses reach target customers effectively. By using an interactive map along with a relational database, users can view any particular area of the map and perform some basic operations as their groups privileges permit. With different types of privileges, users...
To protect the environment and save human lives, the detection of various hazardous toxins of biological or chemical origin has been a major challenge to the researchers at Oregon State University. Living fish cells can indicate the presence of a wide range of toxins by reactions such as changing color...
GEM-GIS is a prototype of a web-based GIS/Database application for managing a germplasm collection. This application include a database, a map interface, a set of web forms for database access, and an analysis module. The analysis module perform statistical analysis for the accessions of a species selected by the user...
The Disney Company is an inescapable force in American life that is often detached from the stigma of big business and instead viewed as something particularly valuable, the United States’ foremost storyteller. In addition to the stories that the Disney Company
produces through its animated and live-action productions, there is...
Algorithms and MP1 parallel C programs are developed for constructing wavelet expansions of long-range potential functions with O(n) time complexity. A new high frequency correction algorithm is introduced. The emphasis is on the common potential expansion encountered in physics that behaves as l/r in three-dimensions. The central B-Splines are used...
The mouth of the Columbia River (MCR) has a longstanding reputation of hazardous navigational conditions. This reputation has been developing since the first ship, the Columbia, traversed through the inlet in 1792. The hazardous conditions are related to the large waves and strong tidal currents that are common in the...
This thesis is a study of Herman Melville’s symbolism. I have chosen to investigate the elemental images of water, fire, and stone in Moby-Dick (1851), Pierre; Or, The Ambiguities (1852), and Clarel; A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land (1876). This work is a semiotic study, insofar as the...
Runoff from agricultural lands into Upper Klamath Basin rivers and lakes can
cause water quality problems affecting fish and wildlife. Excessive eutrophication
in Upper Klamath Lake is linked to high nutrient input (particularly phosphorus)
stemming from both lake sediments and watershed tributaries.
On a unit area load basis the Wood...
The 13 personal essays in Water over Stones: Oregon Watershed Stories explore the author's experiences in dozens of Oregon watersheds. Using the genre of the personal essay, the author, a fifth-generation Oregonian and amateur ecologist, writes about her life and family relationships in stories that are saturated with the waters...
In deciduous species, water exits stems mainly through leaf traces
attached to the outer growth ring and yet we know that water ascends
throughout the entire cross-section of the sapwood. There is an increasing
amount of information on sap flow and sapwood hydraulic properties from
separate studies, but little information...
Numerous water supply systems and community based water boards have been created with the aid of international organizations and NGOs in developing countries. These water systems have great potential to improve people’s social life and health in these countries. However, in reality, these water systems are often not effectively managed;...
