Practical considerations for enhanced-resolution coil-wrapped distributed temperature sensing

Creator:: Hilgersom, Koen, van Emmerik, Tim, Solcerova, Anna, Berghuijs, Wouter, Selker, John, and van de Giesen, Nick
Abstract:: Fibre optic distributed temperature sensing (DTS) is widely applied in Earth sciences. Many applications require a spatial resolution higher than that provided by the DTS instrument. Measurements at these higher resolutions can be achieved with a fibre optic cable helically wrapped on a cylinder. The effect of the probe construction,...

Two new combinations in Euploca Nutt. (Heliotropiaceae, Boraginales) and a conspectus of the species of the Guiana Shield area

Creator:: Feuillet, Christian
Abstract:: Heliotropium foliatum and Tournefortia humilis are transferred to Euploca Nutt. respectively as Euploca foliata comb. n. and Euploca humilis comb. n. A collection from Guyana has been recently identified as Euploca humistrata, a species previously considered a Brazilian endemic. A collection from French Guiana documents for the first time the...

Utility of a Work Process Classification System for characterizing non-fatal injuries in the Alaskan commercial fishing industry

Creator:: Syron, Laura N., Lucas, Devin L., Bovbjerg, Viktor E., Bethel, Jeffrey W., and Kincl, Laurel D.
Abstract:: Background. The US commercial fishing industry is hazardous, as measured by mortality data. However, research on non-fatal injuries is limited. Non-fatal injuries constitute the majority of occupational injuries and can result in workers' lowered productivity and wages, lost quality of life, and disability. In the United States, a Work Process...

High-Flux Thermal Management With Supercritical Fluids

Creator:: Fronk, Brian M. and Rattner, Alexander S.
Abstract:: A novel thermal management approach is explored, which uses supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) as a working fluid to manage extreme heat fluxes in electronics cooling applications. In the pseudocritical region, sCO2 has extremely high volumetric thermal capacity, which can enable operation with low pumping requirements, and without the potential for...

Overexpression of thiamin biosynthesis genes increase leaf and seed thiamin content but not resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae in rice

Creator:: Dong, Wei, Thomas, Nicholas, Ronald, Pamela C., and Goyer, Aymeric
Abstract:: Thiamin diphosphate (ThDP), also known as vitamin B1, serves as an enzymatic cofactor in glucose metabolism, the Krebs cycle, and branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis in all living organisms. Unlike plants and microorganisms, humans are not able to synthesize ThDP de novo and must obtain it from their diet. Staple crops...

Amplifying Student Voices in Library Publishing through Experiential Learning & High Impact Practices

Creator:: Nichols, Jane and Jackson, Korey
Abstract:: OSU Libraries Publishing began offering internships as one way to firmly link the program to the library and university teaching mission. Along the way, questions about implementation surfaced. We will consider what best practices are emerging and examine current internship models within library publishing, digital scholarship centers, and academic libraries...

Monitoring and Reporting Insect Pests in Cole Crops and Sweet Corn (VegNet) : Oregon Processed Vegetable Commission Final Project Report, 2016

Creator:: Peachey, Ed and Green, Jessica
Abstract:: This year, we commemorate 20 years of OSU’s VegNet (1996-2016). VegNet has become a well-known and utilized resource for processed vegetable growers, researchers, and Ag professionals throughout Oregon. This regional program provides weekly activity reports for common broccoli, cauliflower, sweet corn, and snap bean pests. The main goal of the...

Fourier-Transform Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy in Binary Hydrocarbon-Alcohol Single Droplet Evaporation

Creator:: Daly, Shane R., Olson, Nicholas, and Hagen, Christopher L.
Abstract:: Broadband absorption spectroscopy, by way of FTIR, was used to investigate the vapor cloud of a single millimeter sized liquid droplet suspended by a syringe as it evaporates at standard conditions. Single beam data were collected every 8 seconds resulting in a time-resolved record. Species concentrations were tracked using their...

Modeling non-Darcy flows in realistic pore-scale proppant geometries

Creator:: Trykozko, Anna, Peszynska, Malgorzata, and Dohnalik, Marek
Abstract:: The ability to evaluate the effective permeability of proppant packs is useful in predicting the efficiency of hydraulic fracture installations. In this paper we propose a computational approach combining microimaging data from X-ray computed microtomography, the simulations of flow at pore-scale, and an upscaling process which identifies the effective model...

Efficient Finite Groups Arising in the Study of Relative Asphericity

Creator:: Bogley, William A. and Williams, Gerald
Abstract:: We study a class of two-generator two-relator groups, denoted J[subscript n](m, k), that arise in the study of relative asphericity as groups satisfying a transitional curvature condition. Particular instances of these groups occur in the literature as finite groups of intriguing orders. Here we find infinite families of non-elementary virtually...

The conservation genetics juggling act: integrating genetics and ecology, science and policy

Creator:: Haig, Susan M., Miller, Mark. P., Bellinger, Renee, Draheim, Hope M., Mercer, Dacey M., and Mullins, Thomas D.
Abstract:: The field of conservation genetics, when properly implemented, is a constant juggling act integrating molecular genetics, ecology, and demography with applied aspects concerning managing declining species or implementing conservation laws and policies. This young field has grown substantially since the 1980s following the development of polymerase chain reaction and now...

First record of the genus Pseudopilolabus Legalov, 2003 (Coleoptera: Attelabidae) in Dominican amber

Creator:: Poinar, George O., Jr., Brown, A. E., and Legalov, A. A.
Abstract:: A new weevil species (urn:lsid:zoobank.org: act:2D5E9E4A-A250-4D0A-AF69-CF4753436686), Pseudopilolabus othnius Poinar, Brown and Legalov, sp. nov. (Coleoptera: Attelabidae), is described from Dominican amber. The new species is close to the extant P. viridanus (Gyllenhal, 1839) and P. splendens (Gyllenhal, 1839) but differs by having a bronzed body, narrower and more convex elytral...

Closing a gap in tropical forest biomass estimation: taking crown mass variation into account in pantropical allometries

Creator:: Ploton, Pierre, Barbier, Nicolas, Takoudjou Momo, Stéphane, Réjou-Méchain, Maxime, Boyemba Bosela, Faustin, Chuyong, Georges, Dauby, Gilles, Droissart, Vincent, Fayolle, Adeline, Goodman, Rosa Calisto, Henry, Matieu, Kamdem, Narcisse Guy, Mukirania, John Katembo, Kenfack, David, Libalah, Moses, Ngomanda, Alfred, Rossi, Vivien, Sonké, Bonaventure, Texier, Nicolas, Thomas, Duncan, Zebaze, Donatien, Couteron, Pierre, Berger, Uta, and Pélissier, Raphaël
Abstract:: Accurately monitoring tropical forest carbon stocks is a challenge that remains outstanding. Allometric models that consider tree diameter, height and wood density as predictors are currently used in most tropical forest carbon studies. In particular, a pantropical biomass model has been widely used for approximately a decade, and its most...

Detection of Dual Heterodera avenae Resistance plus Tolerance Traits in Spring Wheat

Creator:: Smiley, Richard W. and Marshall, Juliet M.
Abstract:: The cereal cyst nematode Heterodera avenae reduces wheat yield in the Pacific Northwest. Resistance and tolerance traits among spring wheat cultivars were poorly defined. Screening trials were conducted with 39 cultivars over a 2-yr period in irrigated commercial fields that were infested by H. avenae. Comparisons were made between drill...

Efficient disruption and replacement of an effector gene in the oomycete Phytophthora sojae using CRISPR/Cas9

Creator:: Fang, Yufeng and Tyler, Brett M.
Abstract:: Phytophthora sojae is an oomycete pathogen of soybean. As a result of its economic importance, P. sojae has become a model for the study of oomycete genetics, physiology and pathology. The lack of efficient techniques for targeted mutagenesis and gene replacement have long hampered genetic studies of pathogenicity in Phytophthora species....

A Global Index for Mapping the Exposure of Water Resources to Wildfire

Creator:: Robinne, François-Nicolas, Miller, Carol, Parisien, Marc-André, Emelko, Monica B., Bladon, Kevin D., Silins, Uldis, and Flannigan, Mike
Abstract:: Wildfires are keystone components of natural disturbance regimes that maintain ecosystem structure and functions, such as the hydrological cycle, in many parts of the world. Consequently, critical surface freshwater resources can be exposed to post-fire effects disrupting their quantity, quality and regularity. Although well studied at the local scale, the...
