Pore Water Pressure Response in Soil During Tsunami Loading : Numerical Formulation and Experimentation

Creator:: Abdollahi, Abbas
Abstract:: Tsunami loading can cause sediment instability, which can compromise the structural integrity of coastal buildings and infrastructure. To understand the process by which a tsunami can cause sediment instability, it is necessary to understand how the pore water pressure in the soil changes during tsunami loading. Tsunami run-up causes the...

Assessing the feasibility of a sea otter reintroduction to Oregon through a coupled natural-human lens

Creator:: Curran, Lorne S., Kone, Dominique V., and Wickizer, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: Sea otters fulfill a keystone role in several Northeastern Pacific nearshore ecosystems. However, their influence has been absent in Oregon coastal waters since their extirpation in the 19th and early 20th century.

Bird Abundance and Microhabitat Associations with Oak Mistletoe in Willamette Valley Oak Woodlands

Creator:: Pritchard, Kyle R.
Abstract:: In the last 200 years there have been significant declines in the amount and structural complexity of oak-dominated forests and savannahs in the Pacific Northwest. Restoring oak systems often involves selectively thinning stands of oaks in order to reduce competition for sunlight. In choosing which trees to cut, land managers...

Evaluating Biochar for the Sustainable Treatment of Heavy Metals in Stormwater: Characteristics, Mechanisms, and Barriers

Creator:: Burch, Sarah
Abstract:: Heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, and cadmium, are ubiquitous in stormwater and potentially toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations. Removal of heavy metals contamination by conventional treatment is expensive and does not always reduce metals concentrations low enough to ensure safety of all aquatic species. This research seeks...
