Early Math Enrollment in Washington State Community Colleges

Creator:: Harri, Ed J.
Abstract:: More than half of students in Washington state community colleges enroll in developmental mathematics, but a relatively small percentage of these students persist to the second year. Many students place into these courses and never enroll; others enroll at some point after the first academic term, even when faced with...

Repeat temperature measurements in boreholes from northwestern Utah link ground and air temperature changes at the decadal time scale

Creator:: Davis, Michael G., Harris, Robert N., and Chapman, David S.
Abstract:: Borehole temperature profiles provide a record of ground surface temperature (GST) change at the decadal to centennial time scale. GST histories reconstructed from boreholes are particularly useful in climate reconstruction if changes in GST and surface air temperature (SAT) are effectively coupled at decadal and longer time periods and it...

Low Coseismic Friction on the Tohoku-Oki Fault Determined from Temperature Measurements

Creator:: Fulton, P. M., Brodsky, E. E., Kano, Y., Mori, J., Chester, F., Ishikawa, T., Harris, R. N., Lin, W., Eguchi, N., Toczko, S., Expedition 343 Scientists, Expedition 343T Scientists, and Expedition KR13-08 Scientists
Abstract:: The frictional resistance on a fault during slip controls earthquake dynamics. Friction dissipates heat during an earthquake; therefore the fault temperature after an earthquake provides insight into the level of friction. The JFAST project (IODP Expedition 343/343T) installed a borehole temperature observatory 16 months after the March 2011 M[subscript w]9.0...

Creation of Hexaploid and Octaploid Zoysiagrass Using Colchicine and Breeding

Creator:: Schwartz, Brian M., Harris-Shultz, Karen R., Contreras, Ryan N., Hans, Christian S., and Jackson, Scott A.
Abstract:: Zoysiagrasses (Zoysia Willd.) are a slow-growing, tetraploid (2n = 4x = 40) turfgrass that can be successfully managed with less input than many other warm-season grasses. Despite extensive genetic and morphological variation, genotypes with the ability to recuperate quickly from damage are rare. Therefore, a long-term effort to increase vegetative...

Dust, volcanic ash, and the evolution of the South Pacific Gyre through the Cenozoic

Creator:: Dunlea, Ann G., Murray, Richard W., Sauvage, Justine, Spivack, Arthur J., Harris, Robert N., and D'Hondt, Steven
Abstract:: We examine the 0–100 Ma paleoceanographic record retained in pelagic clay from the South Pacific Gyre (SPG) by analyzing 47 major, trace, and rare earth elements in bulk sediment in 206 samples from seven sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 329. We use multivariate statistical analyses (Q-mode factor analysis...

Deep subsurface carbon cycling in the Nankai Trough (Japan)-Evidence of tectonically induced stimulation of a deep microbial biosphere

Creator:: Riedinger, N., Strasser, M., Harris, R. N., Klockgether, G., Lyons, T. W., and Screaton, E. J.
Abstract:: The abundance of microbial life and the sources of energy necessary for deep subsurface microbial communities remain enigmatic. Here we investigate deep microbial processes and their potential relationships to tectonic events in sediments from the Nankai Trough offshore Japan, drilled and sampled during IODP (Integrated Ocean Drilling Program) Expedition 316....

Adhesive Properties Subject to Variation in Temperature, Thickness, and Working Time

Creator:: Aerne, Nicholas, S. J.
Abstract:: Adhesive use is becoming increasingly common in manufacturing processes. The advantage of adhesives are light weight components, non-destructive fastening techniques and distribution of loads over the applied bond region. Modeling the behavior of adhesive bond lines in fastening joints can help in the design process to make an optimized joint,...

Beyond random acts of conservation : an institutional analysis of the Natural Resource Conservation Service's Agricultural Water Enhancement Program

Creator:: Burright, Harmony S. J.
Abstract:: Irrigated agriculture accounts for 90 percent of consumptive use of freshwater in the western US and is considered the largest contributor to nonpoint source water pollution. The diffuse nature of most water quality and quantity challenges necessitates institutions that can more effectively engage agricultural producers in strategic, integrated, watershed-scale approaches...

Patterns of tree establishment and vegetation composition in relation to climate and topography of a subalpine meadow landscape, Jefferson Park, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Zald, Harold S. J.
Abstract:: The forest alpine tundra ecotone (FTE, also known as alpine treeline or subalpine parkland), is a conspicuous feature of mountain landscapes throughout the world. Climate change-driven increases in temperature are believed to result in FTE movement and tree invasion of subalpine meadows, which have been documented throughout the Northern Hemisphere...

Healthcare-Associated Infection and Hospital Readmission

Creator:: Emerson, Carley B., Eyzaguirre, Lindsay M., Albrecht, Jennifer S., Comer, Angela C., Harris, Anthony D., and Furuno, Jon P.
Abstract:: OBJECTIVE. Hospital readmissions are a current target of initiatives to reduce healthcare costs. This study quantified the association between having a clinical culture positive for 1 of 3 prevalent hospital-associated organisms and time to hospital readmission. DESIGN. Retrospective cohort study. PATIENTS AND SETTING. Adults admitted to an academic, tertiary care...
