  • Point and nonpoint source mercury pollution of Oregon Reservoirs

    Creator:
    Park, Jeong-Gue
    Abstract:
    Two Oregon reservoirs contaminated by different mercury sources were compared for mercury distribution in sediment and bioaccumulation by fish. The average mercury concentration in the sediment of Cottage Grove reservoir (0.67 ± 0.05 μg/g dry wt) was higher than for Dorena Reservoir (0.12 ± 0.01 μg/g dry wt). Sediment mercury...

  • Geology of the continental terrace off the central coast of Oregon

    Creator:
    Maloney, Neil Joseph
    Abstract:
    The continental terrace west of Oregon between 43° 50'N and 44° 40' N latitude is 50 to 55 miles wide. It consists of a continental shelf, 16 to 35 miles wide, and a continental slope, 16 to 37 miles wide. The eastern portion of the shelf is a smooth, sediment...

  • Crustal structure and thermal gradients of the northern Gulf of California determined using spectral analysis of magnetic anomalies

    Creator:
    Zamora, Osvaldo Sanchez
    Abstract:
    Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ballenas- Salsipuedes, Tiburón, Guaymas, and the South Cerro Prieto are clearly observable on these maps....

  • Rheological and spectroscopic characterization of surimi under various comminuting and heating conditions

    Creator:
    Poowakanjana, Samanan
    Abstract:
    Optimization of comminuting and heating conditions for surimi gel preparation obtained from three fish species: Alaska pollock (AP) (Theragra chalcogramma), Pacific whiting (PW) (Merluccius productus), and threadfin bream (TB) (Nemipterus spp.) was the focus of this study. Three parameters during comminution were separately evaluated: chopping time, chopping temperature, and salting...

  • Probabilistic Tsunami Hazard and Damage Assessment of the Built Environment : Applied at Seaside, Oregon

    Creator:
    Park, Hyoungsu
    Abstract:
    Damage estimates to the built environment from tsunamis are important for disaster mitigation, including planning emergency response and recovery. This dissertation evaluates the damage states of buildings in a small urban coastal city, Seaside, Oregon, from tsunami hazards generated by a Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) event. This study is separated...

    Creator:
    Ellis, Erik
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on the life of Dixy Lee Ray as it examines important developments in marine biology and biological oceanography during the mid twentieth century. In addition, Ray's key involvement in the public understanding of science movement of the 1950s and 1960s provides a larger social and cultural context...

  • Education of American research astronomers, 1876-1941

    Creator:
    Hall, Robert Dale, 1947-
    Abstract:
    The education (particularly graduate education) of Americans who were active in astronomical research between 1876 and 1941 is assessed for its effectiveness in preparing the astronomers for careers in research. This period contains three dynamic changes: the growth of American astronomy in becoming the world's leading community of astronomers, the...

    Creator:
    Schamberger, Melvin
    Abstract:
    During 1966, 1967, and 1968 extensive field investigations were carried out in Mount Rainier National Park. These included continuous research during the summer months, and weekend activities during the winter months. Small mammals were trapped and observed, and the larger mammals were observed exclusively. The summer trapping consisted of two...
