A Decision Support System for Optimizing Reservoir Operations Using Ensemble Streamflow Forecasts (ESP)

Creator:: Alemu, Eset T., Palmer, Richard N., Polebitski, Austin, and Meeker, Bruce
Abstract:: The presentation discusses the economic value of Ensemble Streamflow Predictions (ESP) streamflow and energy price forecasts in the operation of the Jackson Hydropower Project in western Washington. A decision support system (DSS) was constructed for this multipurpose reservoir system for the evaluation of operational alternatives and improvement of operational procedures....

Synthesis, surface treatment, and characterization of copper indium sulfide quantum dots

Creator:: Alemu, Yagenetfere A.
Abstract:: The need for less toxic quantum dots (QDs) has led to a significant number of investigations related to copper indium sulfide (CIS) QDs. Lower toxicity and broad band absorbance width makes CIS QDs appealing for light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, sensors, bio-imaging, solar cells, and computing. The optical and electronic...

Characterizing the Function of the Harderian Gland and its Interactions with the Vomeronasal Organ in the Red-sided Garter Snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: Bentz, Ehren
Abstract:: The Harderian gland is a large cephalic gland present in most groups of terrestrial vertebrates. Although the Harderian gland has been the focus of numerous studies for more than 300 years, its physiological function has remained largely unresolved. Harderian gland secretions are diverse among different taxa, and many putative functions...

Subsidies promote use of drought tolerant maize varieties despite variable yield performance under smallholder environments in Malawi

Creator:: Holden, Stein T. and Fisher, Monica
Abstract:: This study used a three-year panel dataset for 350 Malawian farm households to examine the potential for widespread adoption of drought tolerant (DT) maize varieties, a technology that holds considerable promise for helping smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) adapt to drought risk. Regression results revealed that DT maize cultivation...

Lean Implementations in the University Classroom and Curriculum Design

Creator:: Diep, Dustin S.
Abstract:: The Lean process improvement philosophy has been proposed as a method for improving components of Higher Education (HE), including student learning outcomes; however, current lean applications to HE have focused on administrative operations or general institutional interventions. Comparatively little work has been performed applying lean to teaching. This work fills...

Value and evaluation : a case study of interdisciplinary green infrastructure continuing professional education trainings

Creator:: Johnson, Christine M.
Abstract:: The practice of green infrastructure is synonymous with collaborative partnerships. Expertise from engineers, land care professionals, planners, and natural resource consultants are often required for successful project implementation. Traditionally, these professionals perform their responsibilities in their disciplinary “silos,” but this evolving area of sustainable development is creating a demand for...

Deposition and characterization of thin films

Creator:: He, Shidong
Abstract:: Recent studies have indicated that nickel gallium alloys can be effective for the catalytic hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol. To simplify the characterization of NiGa catalysts, we are developing model systems using NiGa thin films. We prepared NiGa thin films by RF magnetron sputtering using an equiatomic alloy target, followed...

Livelihoods and land use change in highland Ethiopia

Creator:: Guillozet, Kathleen
Abstract:: This dissertation investigates livelihood and land use change dynamics in a community at the farm-forest periphery in highland Ethiopia. I use interviews and livelihood assessment data to compare the strategies used by members of different wealth groups to negotiate and maintain access to forest resources, and integrate socioeconomic, bio-physical and...
