Managing woody biomass transportation for improved biomass economics

Creator:: Han, Sang-Kyun
Abstract:: With rising fuel costs and enhanced environmental concerns, the use of renewable energy has been steadily considered and widely expounded as a solution to the challenges of global energy security and climate change. The use of woody biomass, in particular, has received considerable attention for energy production due to the...

Terahertz imaging and spectroscopy of carbon-based and semiconductor nanostructures

Creator:: Tomaino, Joseph L.
Abstract:: This thesis will cover work that I have completed relating to the field of terahertz (THz) science. My work has consisted of generating tunable, narrowband THz pulses in a table-top optical setup and using both narrow- and broadband THz pulses to study various material systems. Broadband THz pulses were used...

New paradigms for understanding and step changes in treating active and chronic, persistent apicomplexan infections

Creator:: McPhillie, Martin, Zhou, Ying, El Bissati, Kamal, Dubey, Jitender, Lorenzi, Hernan, Capper, Michael, Lukens, Amanda K, Hickman, Mark, Muench, Stephen, Verma, Shiv Kumar, Weber, Christopher R., Wheeler, Kelsey, Gordon, James, Sanders, Justin, Moulton, Hong, Wang, Kai, Kim, Taek-Kyun, He, Yuqing, Santos, Tatiana, Woods, Stuart, Lee, Patty, Donkin, David, Kim, Eric, Fraczek, Laura, Lykins, Joseph, Esaa, Farida, Alibana-Clouser, Fatima, Dovgin, Sarah, Weiss, Louis, Brasseur, Gael, Wirth, Dyann, Kent, Michael, Hood, Leroy, Meunieur, Brigitte, Roberts, Craig W., Hasnain, S. Samar, Antonyuk, Svetlana V., Fishwick, Colin, and McLeod, Rima
Abstract:: Toxoplasma gondii, the most common parasitic infection of human brain and eye, persists across lifetimes, can progressively damage sight, and is currently incurable. New, curative medicines are needed urgently. Herein, we develop novel models to facilitate drug development: EGS strain T. gondii forms cysts in vitro that induce oocysts in...

The Use of Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Computer Vision in Tree Level Modeling

Creator:: Gabriel, Richard S.
Abstract:: Laser Scanning represents a new opportunity in forestry to effect meaningful change in the methods used for collection and analysis of inventory data. With the ability to collect spatial information in 360 degrees, while fluidly tracking the sensor and building the final point cloud, large tracks of terrestrial LiDAR based...

Modeling air-drying of Douglas-fir and hybrid poplar biomass in Oregon

Creator:: Kim, Dong-Wook
Abstract:: Both transportation costs and market values of woody biomass are strongly linked to the amount of moisture in the woody biomass. Therefore, managing moisture in the woody biomass well can lead to significant advantages in the woody biomass energy business. In this study, two prediction models were developed to estimate...

Local and Regional Patterns in Eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) Communities Along an Upwelling-Productivity Gradient in Oregon Estuaries, USA

Creator:: Motley, Jennifer
Abstract:: In this thesis, I investigate the organization of eelgrass (Zostera marina L.) and mesograzer communities across local and regional scales in three upwelling- influenced estuaries located along the Oregon coast, USA. Eelgrass ecosystems are an important source of primary production in estuarine systems, providing numerous ecosystem services, including nursery habitat...

Printing 3D Magnetic Composite Structures with Arbitrary Anisotropy using UV-curable Magnetic Ink

Creator:: Clay, Garrett
Abstract:: Inkjet printing offers a cost effective, highly customizable method for rapid manufacturing of functional devices with minimal material waste. Although this method has been used for a variety of composites, little work has been done in the area of 3D printing magnetic composites. Presented here is a process for inkjet...

Breeding and genetics of lilacs and hardy hibiscus

Creator:: Lattier, Jason D.
Abstract:: Lilacs are a group of ornamental trees and shrubs in the Oleaceae family consisting of 22 to 30 species. There are six series within genus Syringa: Pubescentes, Villosae, Ligustrae, Ligustrina, Pinnatifoliae, and Syringa. Fertility and cross-compatibility among cultivars, species, and series have yet to be formally investigated. Over three years,...

State of the Climate in 2012

Creator:: Blunden, Jessica and Arndt, Derek S.
Abstract:: For the first time in several years, the El Niño-Southern Oscillation did not dominate regional climate conditions around the globe. A weak La Niña dissipated to ENSOneutral conditions by spring, and while El Niño appeared to be emerging during summer, this phase never fully developed as sea surface temperatures in...
