A petrochemical study of the Mount Fubilan Intrusion and associated ore bodies, Papua New Guinea

Creator:: Doucette, John
Abstract:: The Mount Fubilan Intrusion is part of a geologically young hypabyssal stock in the Star Mountains of Papua New Guinea. This stock was mapped as the Ok Tedi Intrusive Complex and divided into four separate bodies: the Mount Fubilan, Sydney Intrusion, Kalgoorlie, and Ningi Intrusions. Hydrothermal fluids caused alteration of...

Development of a low-cost video imaging system for pavement evaluation

Creator:: Kim, Joonkee
Abstract:: The evaluation of pavement condition is an important part of pavement management. To evaluate a pavement, a distress survey has been performed mainly by manual field inspections. Several automatic pavement evaluation systems have been developed to overcome the drawbacks of field inspections. Automated evaluation systems, however, imply their own limitations...

Vulnerability of port and harbor communities to earthquake and tsunami hazards in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Wood, Nathan J.
Abstract:: Earthquakes a . tsunamis pose significant threats to port and harbor communities in the Pacific Northwest. Developing effective mitigation and preparedness plans requires a comprehensive understanding of community vulnerability. Research presented here focuses on the vulnerability of ports and harbors to earthquake and tsunami hazards and includes a regional study...

Spatial and temporal patterns of fire in the forests of the central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Impara, Peter C.
Abstract:: Fire history and fire regime were interpreted from tree ring analysis of 4320 stumps at 178 sites in a 25 by 55 km area in the central Oregon Coast Range. A total of 27 fire episodes were identified in a 516 year period, with sizes estimated at 18 to 544...

Cattle behavior and distribution on the San Joaquin Experimental Range in the foothills of central California

Creator:: Harris, Norman Rex
Abstract:: Small herds of cows were observed and spatially mapped over continuous twenty-four hour periods. Treatments were implemented that investigated the effect of water site and supplementation on animal distribution patterns. A series of six observation periods constituted each observation series. Observation series were repeated winter (January) and summer (July) for...

Detecting medusahead (Taeniatherum caput-medusae (L.) Nevski) using high frequency, sequential, globally positioned digital images

Creator:: Ndzeidze, Stephen Koghan
Abstract:: Invasive plant species are expanding and transforming vegetative communities across Oregon and throughout the United States. Over the past three decades remote sensing, geographic information system (GIS), and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies have been integrated to detect and map the distribution of noxious rangeland plants. This study developed low-cost...

Cross-section fatal crash type prediction models

Creator:: Zhu, Hong
Abstract:: The rural two-lane highway in the southeastern United States is frequently associated with a disproportionate number of serious and fatal crashes. The major research objectives are to investigate the relations between probabilities of fatal crash type occurrence and potential contributing factors from road geometric design characteristics and roadside, environmental features....

Optimization of cable logging layout using a heuristic algorithm for network programming

Creator:: Chung, Woodam
Abstract:: Designing timber harvesting units is a challenging task. The task requires decision making on logging equipment, landing site, cable road profile, road location, and transportation system. Traditionally forest planners have done the task manually. However, the manual method makes it difficult to examine many alternatives and the harvest plans depend...

Minimizing total cost of construction, maintenance, and transportation costs with computer-aided forest road design

Creator:: Akay, Abdullah Emin
Abstract:: The systems currently available for forest road design are not capable of making computer-aided design judgments such as: 1) automated generation of alternative grade lines, 2) optimizing vertical alignment, 3) minimizing total cost of construction, maintenance, and transportation costs, and 4) aiming for least environmental impacts. In recent years, advances...
