Evaluation of different monitoring strategies for public health protection : harmful algal bloom surveillance at Devils Lake, Lincoln City, OR

Creator:: Hitchko, Kara L.
Abstract:: Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic bacteria capable of producing toxins, including complex cyclic peptides called microcystins. Hazardous cyanobacterial blooms are an emerging public health concern and are monitored throughout Oregon in various recreational and drinking water bodies. Oregon has been proactive and responsive to the problems associated with toxic cyanobacterial blooms, but...

Survival and behavior of juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in two small estuaries in Oregon

Creator:: Romer, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: A number of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations are at risk throughout Oregon, including five populations that are federally listed as threatened or endangered. However, little is known about behavior and survival of these fish as they transition from freshwater to seawater. We investigated whether estuarine survival varies on a temporal...

The importance of egg size for the diversity of salmonids

Creator:: Leblanc, Camille A.
Abstract:: Understanding the origin and nature of intra specific biodiversity enables us to better conserve and manage animal populations. Biological diversity is seen at different scales and for different traits such as behavior, morphology, physiology, and life history. Behavior is especially important since behavioral changes are believed to precede changes in...

Modeling Survival of Soilborne Phytophthora spp. and Characterizing Microbial Communities in Response to Soil Solarization and Biocontrol Amendment in Container Nursery Beds

Creator:: Funahashi, Fumiaki
Abstract:: In horticultural nurseries for container-grown plants, production and sales have been threatened by the presence of a quarantined plant pathogen, Phytophthora ramorum (causal agent of sudden oak death). Infested nursery beds are an important source of P. ramorum, which can initiate disease through movement with surface water to infect roots...

An Evaluation of the Effects of Hatchery and Management Practices on Geomagnetic Orientation Behavior in Juvenile Pacific Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Scanlan, Michelle M.
Abstract:: Numerous populations of salmon and trout undergo extensive migrations, migrating from freshwater to the sea and throughout ocean basins. Years later they return to their natal streams with remarkable accuracy and precision. The outward migration is accomplished without the benefit of following experienced migrants or prior individual experience. Evidence suggests...

Temperature Evolution of Spark Kernels in Quiescent and Cross-flow Conditions

Creator:: Okhovat, Sebastian
Abstract:: Numerous physical and chemical processes are required for successful ignition of a flammable mixture, many of which have been well characterized. However, one aspect of the ignition process that has received limited consideration is understanding the temperature of the spark kernel. A spark kernel is the volume of heated gas...

Radiation Emissions from Turbulent Diffusion Flames Burning Large Hydrocarbon Fuels

Creator:: Zeuthen, Eric D.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to measure and compare radiation emissions from flames burning large hydrocarbon fuels to assist in understanding how the molecular composition changes radiation emissions. Radiative heat transfer is significant because it is a primary mode of heat transfer for many combustion devices. This study also...

Effects of Dilution on Turbulent Consumption Speeds of Jet Fuel

Creator:: Walters, Ian
Abstract:: Combustion systems for transportation applications typically use large hydrocarbon fuels in turbulent premixed or partially premixed environments. Combustion products can enter the reaction region through natural recirculation or combustion control mechanisms. The objective of this study is to characterize how dilution by combustion products affects the turbulent consumption speed for...

Stability and Liftoff of Non-premixed Large Hydrocarbon Flames in MILD Conditions

Creator:: Walters, Eric M.
Abstract:: The Moderate or Intense Low-oxygen Dilution (MILD) combustion regime has received interest from the industrial furnace and gas turbine engine industries due to attractive properties of reduced NO[subscript x] emissions and high thermal efficiency. MILD combustion is characterized by low oxygen concentrations (i.e. 3%-9% by volume) and high reactant temperatures....

The Global Consumption Speeds of Premixed Large-Hydrocarbon Fuel/Air Turbulent Bunsen Flames

Creator:: Fillo, Aaron Jesse
Abstract:: Large-hydrocarbon fuels are used for ground and air transportation because of their high energy-density and will be for the foreseeable future. However, combustion of large-hydrocarbon fuels in a turbulent environment is poorly understood and difficult to predict. The turbulent flame speed, which is the velocity at which a flame front...
