The effects of stand thinning on soil erosion rates at Jim's Creek in the Willamette National Forest, Oregon

Creator:: McFadden, Andrew K.
Abstract:: Surface sediment transport is an important geomorphic process which can be significantly altered by management activities in forested ecosystems. Disturbance of the soil surface may result in increased sediment delivery to fish bearing streams and degradation of soil structure. Selective thinning and low impact yarding techniques were utilized in an...

Biologically inspired biosensors from fish chromatophores

Creator:: Young, Jun
Abstract:: This thesis explores the feasibility of using melanophore-based biosensors from Oreochromis niloticus. Melanophores are one type of pigmented cell of the scales and fins of fish that respond in a motile fashion to a diverse range of stimuli. Fish scales were employed as the first step in determining the utility...

Life in (an)other world : issues of otherness and magic in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series

Creator:: Fennell, Dalicia K.
Abstract:: My thesis is comprised of two articles, titled "Journeying Through (An)Other World: Examining the Role of Magic and Transformational Otherness in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" and "Magic, Muggles, and Mudbloods: Examining Magical Otherness in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter Series." The introduction frames the thematic, theoretical, and critical connections...

Land use and land-use change in the Rocky Mountain west

Creator:: Broniak, Christine T.
Abstract:: Private land-use decisions can have important effects on private and public welfare. Market-based policies to regulate land use have the potential to move the privately-optimal allocation of land closer to what is socially optimal. To implement these policies in the Rocky Mountain states, it is necessary to understand the effects...

Accelerating the convergence of the k-eigenvalue problem using a coarse mesh finite differencing scheme in cylindrical geometry

Creator:: Hummel, Andrew J.
Abstract:: Reactor modeling is largely limited by the computational time required to perform accurate full core calculations. There are many different methods and techniques employed in different reactor simulation codes, but properly modeling all of the physics that takes place in the system requires extensive computational effort. The Coarse Mesh Finite...

Frequency, Distribution, Ploidy Diversity and Control Options of Herbicide Resistant Italian Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. spp. multiflorum (Lam.) Husnot) Populations in Western Oregon

Creator:: Bobadilla, Lucas K.
Abstract:: Italian ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. spp. multiflorum (Lam.) Husnot) is one of the most troublesome weeds with respect to herbicide resistance selection. Some reasons for this are the numerous documented cases of multiple and cross herbicide resistance and some of the biological characteristics of this species, such as wind cross-pollination...

An investigation of the alarm response in anuran amphibian larvae

Creator:: Hews, Diana K.
Abstract:: The results of my research suggest that tadpoles of the Western toad (Bufo boreas) and the Cascades frog (Rana cascadae) display an alarm response to chemicals from injured conspecific tadpoles. Furthermore, results suggest that the Bufo boreas alarm response can be elicited by a natural predator when it feeds on...

Determination of a calculation bias in the MCNP model of the OSTR

Creator:: Kitto, Allyson K.
Abstract:: Oregon State University is home to a TRIGA® Mark II reactor. In October of 2008, the reactor began operating on low enriched uranium fuel. A model of the facility exists in MCNP, a Monte Carlo code that can be used for criticality calculations. Until now, a bias in the calculation...

Dextral shear and north-directed crustal shortening defines the transition between extensional and contractional provinces in north-central Oregon

Creator:: Johnson, Ajeet K.
Abstract:: Distributed deformation in the backarc of Cascadia is complex. Off the west coast lies the Cascadia convergent margin. East of the plate boundary, clockwise rotation of the Oregon Coast Range block with respect to stable North America influences backarc deformation, causing extensional faults in southeast Oregon, contraction folding in southeast...
