Assessment of pre-fire season physical fitness training among Bureau of Land Management wildland firefighters

Creator:: Hawkins, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: Wildland firefighters encounter many situations during forest fires that require them to rely on their knowledge, experience, and fitness level for survival While energy expenditure of wildland firefighters on the fire line has been well established, relatively little is known about the physical fitness level of wildland firefighters when they...

Kinetics and kinematics of prepubertal children participating in osteogenic physical activity

Creator:: Bauer, Jeremy
Abstract:: Introduction: Recent reports in exercise related bone research have shown increased bone mineral content (BMC) at the femoral neck for prepubescent children participating in exercise programs consisting of repeated drop landings from a height of 61 cm. Increases in BMC from this type of exercise are believed to be the...

Luminescent sulfides and solution-deposited oxide thin films

Creator:: Anderson, Jeremy T.
Abstract:: Solid state luminescent sulfides are prepared as powders in order to elucidate the relationship between structure and light emission. While the sulfides studied in this dissertation are known phosphors, materials are investigated in a variety of new ways. Elementary properties and structures of MgS are reviewed, and preparation of MgS...

Understanding changes in forest cover and carbon storage in early successional forests of the Pacific Northwest using USDA Forest Service FIA and multi-temporal Landsat data

Creator:: Schroeder, Todd A.
Abstract:: To effectively study dynamic processes like forest succession over long time periods one must effectively integrate data collected at many different times, locations and spatial scales. The purpose of this research is to integrate forest inventory data collected by the USDA Forest Service’s Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Program with...

Live-tree carbon in the Pacific Northwest : estimates and uncertainties

Creator:: Melson, Susanna L.
Abstract:: Concentration of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere has increased over the past 150 years. Because CO₂ is one of a number of radiatively active gases, there is concern that global temperatures will rise and climatic conditions will change. Recent research indicates northern hemisphere forests may currently be accumulating carbon...

Winterfat seed viability and dormant season livestock grazing

Creator:: Leary, Ryan
Abstract:: Krascheninnikovia lanata (winterfat) is a valuable forage species with an average of 10% crude protein during winter when there are few nutritious options for livestock and wildlife. However, excessive grazing throughout the west has negatively impacted survival of winterfat stands. We hypothesized that four years rest from dormant season livestock...

Generation of narrowband THz pulses and THz studies of ultrafast phenomena in semiconductor quantum wells

Creator:: Danielson, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: This work comprises two main parts: creating and shaping narrowband, pulsed THz radiation in a table-top optical setup; and applying THz pulses to semiconductor nanostructures to study electron dynamics. I developed a scheme to shape the THz output of a fanned-out periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) crystal. The pulses are...

Discriminating between landslide sites and potentially unstable terrain using topographic indices

Creator:: Appt, Jeremy
Abstract:: A landslide inventory, statistical analyses and a Geographic Information System (GIS) are used to analyze landslide sites and potentially unstable terrain in the Oregon Coast Range. The objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of locating landslide sites with topographic variables and discriminate the difference between sites where landslides have and...

Community composition and activities of denitrifying bacteria in soils

Creator:: Rich, Jeremy J.
Abstract:: Few studies have directly compared denitrifying community composition and activities in soils by coupling molecular-genetic techniques and traditional measures of denitnfication. I investigated communities of denitrifying bacteria from adjacent meadow and forest soils in the Cascade Mountains, Oregon. A key gene in the denitrification pathway, N₂O reductase (nosZ), served as...

Exploration and Analysis of Information Visualization Techniques Applied to the TeachEngineering Digital Library

Creator:: Gragg, Jeremy
Abstract:: The rapid development of computing technologies in recent decades has allowed for data to be generated at unprecedented rates. As a result, users are challenged with the task of finding the precise information that they are looking for. Visualization techniques provide the ability to view and analyze data in different...
