Democratizing the Data Stream: Creating an Equitable Transfer of Research Vessel Data from Scientist to Student

Creator:: Nolan, Hannah L.
Abstract:: With the emergence of big data and the Open Data Movement, and the wide availability to the public of large databases, Data Literacy is a necessary learning goal for students. Understanding the data process in its entirety is now a vital skillset required across industry, government, and scientific disciplines. The...

Citizen Science Research : A Focus on Historical Whaling Data and a Current Marine Mammal Citizen Science Project, Whale mAPP

Creator:: Hann, Courtney
Abstract:: Citizen science work has built the foundation of much of our knowledge on regional-scale large cetacean spatial patterns through historical whaling data. Historical whaling data on sperm whales was used as an example to show the type of ecological questions large-scale, long-term citizen science datasets can address. Results from the...

Experimental research on the behavior and strength of large-scale steel gusset plates with sway-buckling response including effects of corrosion and retrofit options

Creator:: Hafner, Anthony G.
Abstract:: The collapse of the I-35W Bridge in Minneapolis, MN on August 1, 2007 brought into question the design and inspection of gusset plates in steel truss bridges. The experimental tests performed in this research study the sway-buckling strength and behavior of large-scale steel gusset plates in an isolated truss connection....

Contributions to Collaborative Filtering Research

Creator:: Nong, Shuzhen
Abstract:: In this report, I first introduce three areas of interest to collaborative filtering researchers, namely: (a) how to solve the sparsity and scalability problems in recommendation systems; (b) how to rapidly develop and test collaborative filtering algorithms; and (c) how to apply collaborative filtering to unbounded numeric preference data. In...

Change in Oregon’s Nearshore Groundfish Trawl Fishery: Perspectives from Science and Industry Data

Creator:: Howard, Rebecca A.
Abstract:: The commercial groundfish fishing industry and groundfish research have a long concurrent history of activity on the Oregon continental margin. Within the non-whiting groundfish fishery, the target species are primarily flatfishes, sablefish, lingcod, and rockfishes, though landings of each have fluctuated over time. Recent work shows that over the past...

Combined Effects of Intensive Forest Management and Microclimate on Reproduction in a Cavity-Nesting Songbird

Creator:: Jones, Kristin N.
Abstract:: Future scenarios of global climate change rely on large-scale climate envelope models that do not account for local climatic conditions to which organisms most closely respond. Shifts in species distributions and phenology driven by climate change are well-documented, yet we lack a strong understanding of how climate change will influence...

Landsat-based monitoring of annual wetland change in the main-stem Willamette River floodplain of Oregon, USA from 1972 to 2012

Creator:: Fickas, Kate C.
Abstract:: Despite holding substantial ecological value, wetlands in the United States have experienced a significant decline in both area and function over the past century with the majority of freshwater wetland loss attributed to agricultural conversion. Agriculture is the second largest industry in the State of Oregon and the State places...

A Comparison of the Preferred Role of Science and Scientists in the Marine and Terrestrial Policy Process

Creator:: Kloepfer, Daniel H.
Abstract:: The role of science in marine policy, and environmental policy in general, is a debated topic. Currently, there is an increasing desire for transparent and participatory democracy that involves more input from local residents and other non-experts. These demands often conflict with the increasing complexity of problems and the real...

An inventory and analysis of Pacific Northwest agricultural land use projections

Creator:: McKinley, Randolph Allen
Abstract:: This paper is a summary of a larger project that consolidated agricultural land use projection information for the Pacific Northwest, as of January 1979. The characteristics of nine major projection studies are identified and used as a basis for comparing the relative merits of each study with regard to: 1)...

A modified synoptic analysis of the status of Oregon's Willamette Valley wetlands

Creator:: Gabriel, John T.
Abstract:: Sound wetland management depends on an accurate comprehensive assessment of functional wetland values. This management should account for the cumulative impacts to regions and landscapes resulting from piecemeal destruction and degradation of wetland resources. A regional or watershed evaluation of wetland values can also make site-specific assessments more efficient. The...
