An investigation into the pore-scale mechanisms of capillary trapping : application to geologic CO₂ sequestration

Creator:: Herring, Anna L.
Abstract:: Geologic CO₂ sequestration is a climate change mitigation strategy that prevents CO₂ emissions to the atmosphere by capturing CO₂ gasses from large point source emissions streams and then pressurizing and pumping the supercritical-state CO₂ into underground geologic storage reservoirs. Once underground, CO₂ is prevented from buoyant migration to the surface...

Tax and budget policy in Oregon : a computable general equilibrium perspectives

Creator:: Waters, Edward C
Abstract:: In November 1990, Oregon voters approved Ballot Measure 5, placing an ultimate ceiling on local property tax rates of 1.5% of market value (excluding specific levies for capital expenditure). Any resulting shortfalls in local education revenues are to be made up by transfers from state funds, at the expense of...

Multiple objective planning procedures in water resource development : the trade-off ratio

Creator:: Lynne, Gary D.
Abstract:: The social and economic objectives of society in the United States are many and varied. All objectives, in turn, cannot be achieved simultaneously because of a finite resource base. The problem of finding an optimum, in some sense, level of achievement for the various objectives is complicated by lack of...

Coastal Dune Ecology, Geomorphology, and Ecosystem Services : How Invasive Beachgrasses, their Interactions, and Sediment Dynamics Shape U.S. Pacific Northwest Dunes

Creator:: Biel, Reuben G.
Abstract:: Biological invasions and climate change represent two preeminent threats to ecological communities and biodiversity, altering the distribution and abundance of species, disrupting existing species interactions and forming unprecedented ones, and creating novel ecological communities. Many of the most successful invasive species are also ecosystem engineers, species that physically modify the...

A quantitative method for using an inventory of the soil and water resources of the state of Oregon to determine human population carrying capacities for two acceptable qualities of life

Creator:: Karr, Don John
Abstract:: A method was developed for converting the food producing capabilities of Oregon's soils to numerical data from which state and county carrying capacities for human populations could be calculated. Another method was developed for converting the needs for housing and related support construction to numerical data which would consume cultivated...

Bioterrorism : a survey of western United States hospital response readiness

Creator:: Phillips, Margaret J.
Abstract:: A study to evaluate the level of hospital preparedness to respond to a bioterrorist attack such as smallpox or anthrax, in the western United States (Arizona, California, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon and Washington) was conducted from May to September 2000. A survey questionnaire was mailed to 300 randomly selected hospitals. A...

Surface Water and Groundwater Interactions in the Walla Walla River, Northeast Oregon, USA : A Multi-Method Field-Based Approach

Creator:: Gryczkowski, Landon
Abstract:: Surface water and groundwater interactions are a key component in the functioning of stream ecosystems. Exchange of water between the stream and the hyporheic zone creates habitat for aquatic organisms and serves as a control for stream biogeochemical, thermal, and flow processes. This study takes a multi-method field-based approach to...

Essays on location decisions and carbon sequestration strategies of U.S. firms

Creator:: Wu, Caiwen
Abstract:: Location is a critical component of business decisions. A firm's location decision may be influenced not only by market forces, such as the location of input suppliers, output processors and competitors, but also by government policies if such policies impact their expected profits and are applied non-uniformly across space. Likewise,...

Water scarcity and reservoir reliability in basins affected by climate and land use change : impacts of hydrogeology, sensitivities, and uncertainties in the Santiam River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Mateus, M. Cristina
Abstract:: Multipurpose management of hydrosystems face a number of uncertainties related to hydrologic variability and nonstationarity. Anticipated air temperature increases in the Pacific Northwest region are projected to alter the timing and quantity of streamflow associated with precipitation shifting from snow to rain, including shorter winter runoff periods, earlier spring runoff,...
