Wildfire risk management : strategic interaction and spatial interdependence

Creator:: Busby, Gwenlyn M.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I examine how the spatial configuration of forest ownership influences the risk-mitigating behavior of public and private forestland owners over time. I determine whether or not the predicted equilibrium outcomes are socially optimal and, if not, whether the introduction of regulation, liability, or private insurance would lead...

Uranium and technetium bio-immobilization in intermediate-scale physical models of an in situ bio-barrier

Creator:: Michalsen, Mandy M.
Abstract:: Metal and hydrogen ion acidity and extreme nitrate concentrations typical of Department of Energy (DOE) legacy waste sites pose formidable challenges to successful implementation of in situ bio-immobilization. Intermediate-scale (~ 2.5 m), flow through models of an in situ bio-barrier were constructed to investigate U and Tc removal from groundwater...

Tugboat compliance with the International Maritime Organization Area to be avoided off the Washington Coast

Creator:: Smith, Daniel R.
Abstract:: Vessel traffic places the sensitive environmental, natural, and cultural resources of Washington’s outer coast at risk of oil or hazardous materials spills. In 1995, International Maritime Organization established the Area to be Avoided off the Washington Coast (ATBA) to reduce this risk. Annual estimates of vessel compliance with the ATBA...

Traversing the city of blogs : pedagogy, performance, and public spheres

Creator:: Faris, Michael J.
Abstract:: In this thesis, I conduct an analysis of blogs in order to understand their potential use in the composition classroom with the goals of students writing for a public audience and developing their rhetorical and civic agency. I do so by exploring the potential for the blogosphere as a public...

Transactivational activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 is dependent on thioredoxin reductase activity in mammalian cells

Creator:: Merwin, Jason R.
Abstract:: Reporter gene transactivation by human p53 is inhibited in budding yeast lacking the TRR1 gene encoding thioredoxin reductase. Thioredoxin reductase specifically catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of thioredoxin. Thioredoxin provides a source of electrons for disulfide reduction in various cellular processes. Reduction of disulfides within the cell can be accomplished by...

The Southern Ocean at the last glacial maximum : a strong sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide

Creator:: Moore, J. Keith, Abbott, Mark R., Richman, James G., and Nelson, David M.
Abstract:: Analysis of satellite ocean color, sea surface temperature, and sea ice cover data reveals consistent patterns between biological production, iron availability, and physical forcings in the Southern Ocean. The consistency of these patterns, in conjunction with information on physical conditions during the last glacial maximum (LGM), enables estimates of export...

The fading

Creator:: Ni Bhraonain, Lisa
Abstract:: As I began to explore the evocative nature of language, the creation of themes and images, and the rhythm and beauty of words that I feel must accompany meaning, I discovered that I had always seen and heard and felt the world as many of my characters do; in this...

The effect of the color scheme of a bank interior on subjects' evaluations of the bank and its employees

Creator:: Sferi, Rahma
Abstract:: Previous research suggested that unlike marketing goods, marketing services required manipulating the physical environment as well as price, promotion, production, and place. This indicates a role for interior design in the marketing strategy of a service business. Research also indicated that little was known about the effect of the different...

River-dependent bird species as potential indicators of ecosystem response to removal of dams on the Elwha River, Washington

Creator:: Blackie, Barbara
Abstract:: If two dams on the Elwha River are removed, the ecosystem will be open to the downstream flow of sediments and the upstream flow of marine nutrients in the form of anadromous fish. Nutrient enrichment may influence trophic dynamics of the entire ecosystem, extending beyond the aquatic boundary. I assessed...

Publicly Funded, Privately Assisted : The Role of Giving in Oregon K-12 Education

Creator:: Sattem, Jennifer L.
Abstract:: In Oregon, property tax revolts and school equalization measures have led to increasingly unstable and more non-discretionary public funding for schools. As a result, public schools are turning to private donations to provide both basic and supplemental educational opportunities. Some schools and districts are raising hundreds of thousands of dollars,...
