Creation of At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast

Creator:: Puoci, Victor (Tori) M.
Abstract:: At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast, works to expand the accessibility of science by exploring topics that, at this point, may seem too complex to understand. This thesis project describes the process of creating At This Point and demonstrates how the podcast fulfills the criteria of effective science communication....

Benton County Economic Development: Supporting the Community’s Vision

Creator:: Klupar, Sydney A.
Abstract:: Local economic development can help lessen the impact of large-scale shocks on small communities as it provides them with resilient systems that do not require as much support from global supply chains. In smaller communities, shared governance, interactive and adaptive planning, and evidence-based policymaking strategies can facilitate resilient systems. The...

Effects of estuary characteristics and tsunami waveforms on transported sand sheets

Creator:: Armstrong, Emma M.
Abstract:: The details of the 1700 Cascadia Subdction Zone earthquake and tsunami can be better constrained using data from tsunami sand sheets, provided knowledge of the waveform, estuary geometry and bed roughness controls on the deposition pattern of the sand sheet. In this study, we use the hydrodynamic and sediment transport...

Bacterial seed endophytes of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and their potential to confer drought tolerance

Creator:: Hatwal, Shikhar
Abstract:: Bacterial endophytes have the potential to confer benefits to Douglas-fir ( Pseudotsuga menziesii ), for instance drought tolerance. Bacterial endophytes originating from seeds are especially important. This is because seed endophytes are more likely to be the first endophytes to get established within the young host plant. The goals of...

Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design's Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres

Creator:: Le, Vivian T.
Abstract:: The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine...

The Effect of Protein Nitration on Cell Survival Pathways in Schwann Cells

Creator:: Graumann, Oliver W.
Abstract:: Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a genetic disorder caused by the inactivation of the merlin tumor suppressor gene. NF2 patients develop bilateral vestibular schwannomas (VS) and other nervous system tumors with no effective drug treatment option. In pathological conditions, including NF2, production of the oxidant peroxynitrite leads to protein tyrosine...

The Impact of COVID-19 on the Operation and Perceived Effectiveness of Housing Insecurity Programs

Creator:: Morreale, Julianne G.
Abstract:: This study sought to understand the unique challenges that housing insecurity programs faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. An anonymous Qualtrics survey, containing closed- and open-ended questions, was sent to housing insecurity programs in Benton County, Oregon. Questions focused on how the COVID-19 pandemic affected services and how programs adjusted to...

Retention Capacity of Biochar Infiltration Columns for Escherichia coli

Creator:: Lesch, Samantha
Abstract:: With a growing demand for renewable sources of freshwater around the world, stormwater offers a potential solution. However, various pollutants can be present within stormwater, such as antibiotic-resistant bacteria, that present a danger to human health if stormwater is used for agricultural purposes. Biochar has the capability to remove bacteria...

Photodimerization of Organic Semiconductors in the Strong Coupling Regime

Creator:: Puro, Richard
Abstract:: Organic semiconducting materials have emerged in the last few decades as viable alternatives to inorganics in broad applications from field effect transistors to LEDs to solar cells. Organics provide many benefits over inorganics such as flexibility, sustainability, and reduced cost. However, these materials are more susceptible to degradation in the...

Appraisals of Military Service, PTSD, and Functional Health of Vietnam Combat Veterans: Findings from the VALOR Study

Creator:: Zinn, Alexandra D.
Abstract:: Previous research on WWII veterans in their 70’s and 80’s has shown that positive and negative appraisals of military service mediate between combat exposure and PTSD symptoms in late life. This thesis extends this research in two ways, first by determining how these variables relate to functional health in later...
