John Fiske's philosophy of science : the union of science and religion through the principle of evolution

Creator:: Lester, Jacob Franklin
Abstract:: Modern science was produced by a Christian society, and although science has had an effect on Christianity, it could not itself remain unaffected. In the second half of the nineteenth century, the subject of evolution was as much a religious as a scientific issue. The battle line was drawn and...

Wide band gap semiconductors and insulators : synthesis, processing and characterization

Creator:: Hersh, Peter A.
Abstract:: The work presented here is focused on applying basic principles of solid-state chemistry to the study and development of new wide band-gap semiconductors and insulators for photovoltaic and electronic-device applications. Analysis of crystal structure, band structure, optical band gap, morphology and transport properties provides fundamental insight into materials performance as...

Metal-oxo Clusters as Novel Photolithographic Materials: How Understanding the Chemistry of HafSOx Informs Next-Generation Patterning Systems

Creator:: Amador, Jenn M.
Abstract:: The solution chemistry and kinetic behavior of hafnium peroxy sulfate solutions ("HafSOx") is described in terms of peroxide content and solution speciation. Additionally, thin film behavior, including thermal behavior and solubility, is characterized, and a mechanism of patterning is presented, as well as parameters that should be considered when looking...

Simulating Wood Properties in the Context of a Growth and Yield Model for Planted Douglas-fir

Creator:: Osborne, Nathaniel L.
Abstract:: Forest growth and yield models are critical to supporting decision making in forestry, but often lack considerations for wood properties. The feasibility of simulating wood properties in the context of a Douglas-fir individual tree growth and yield model was evaluated. This assessment explored the effect of predicted sapwood width, stem...

The Oregon Coastal Subprovince, a new biogeographic subprovince for primary freshwater fishes in Oregon

Creator:: Kettratad, Jes
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest has a relatively low diversity of primary freshwater fishes with most of the endemism and diversity in the Columbia River and Klamath River. However, the Oregon Coastal Subprovince defined as the coastal rivers from Miami River in the north to Sixes River in the south, has a...

Simulating Effects of Genetic Tree Improvement on Growth and Yield of Coastal Douglas-fir

Creator:: Joo, Sukhyun
Abstract:: Estimating volume gains in genetically improved stands at rotation age is challenging because first-generation progeny tests in Douglas-fir were typically established to measure the relative growth performance of individual trees from open-pollinated parent trees. The overall goal of this dissertation research was to improve growth simulation of genetically improved Douglas-fir...

Development of a hybrid modeling framework for intensively managed Douglas-fir plantations in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Weiskittel, Aaron R.
Abstract:: Forest growth models in the Pacific Northwest are predominantly empirical. Predictions of yield under alternative silvicultural regimes cannot rely completely on field trials; yet empirical growth models are often inadequate for extrapolating untested regimes and genotypes. The limitations of current models include (1) long time-steps (e.g. 5-10 years); (2) insufficient...

Iron and copper chalcogenides : photovoltaic absorber candidates and YZrF7 : a new upconversion host, Iron and copper chalcogenides : photovoltaic absorber candidates and YZrF₇ : a new upconversion host

Creator:: Jieratum, Vorranutch
Abstract:: The materials Fe₂(Si,Ge)(S,Se)₄, Cu₃PS[subscript 4-x]Se[subscript x] (0 ≤ x ≤ 4), and Cu₃PxAs[subscript 1-x]S₄ (0 ≤ x ≤ 1) have been synthesized and studied as new earth-abundant absorbers for single and multijunction photovoltaic cells as well as solar fuel generation. The synthesis, single-crystal growth, and optical and electrical properties of...

Modeling Tree Size Distribution in Young Douglas-fir Plantations to Facilitate Tree List Generation for Growth Model Initiation at Different Ages and under Differing Silvicultural Regimes

Creator:: Uranga, Martin
Abstract:: Two key challenges emerge when initiating individual-tree growth models for bare ground or very young plantations. Both involve the need for a list of individual trees with known or predicted size and known expansion factor (number of trees per unit of area represented by each tree). In the case of...
