Light Transmittance Properties of Biological Tissues of the Red-sided Garter Snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis, Between 450 and 850 Nanometers

Creator:: Bixby, Eric M.
Abstract:: Using a spectrometer and photomultiplier tube, I measured the electromagnetic radiation transmittance properties of three types of tissue-- ventral skin, cardiac muscle, and liver tissue--in the red-sided garter snake Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis between the wavelengths of 450 and 850 nanometers (nm). Control readings were taken using a 10⁻² neutral density...

An investigation of cultural cohesion and value divergence in a community bank

Creator:: Payne, Bryce M.
Abstract:: Interest in organizational culture has grown enormously over the last twenty years and much effort has gone into investigating the relationship between organizational culture and performance. Because most research to date has focused on large organizations, we chose to investigate the culture in a community bank undergoing a cultural transformation....

The utility of playfulness in terms of innovation and productivity for business and a life of learning

Creator:: Adams, Jason S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this project was to investigate play and our cultural assumptions as to its usefulness or lack there of. The concepts of hard work versus hard play were explored in order to discover when human beings are operating at their best. In terms of innovation and productivity in...

Hispanic and farmworker health : a community health survey of Hood River County, Oregon.

Creator:: Carne, David Michael
Abstract:: Hispanics in Hood River County, Oregon account for roughly 25% of the population, with many employed in agriculture. A community health survey was carried out in Hood River County during the winter months of 2001 with the purpose of evaluating the health conditions, needs, and barriers to access of needed...

Wavelength Dependence of the Scattering of Small Particles by Sunlight

Creator:: Bain, Scott A.
Abstract:: This project calculates the value of β for ice particles based on wavelength dependent values of their refractive and absorptive indices. β is the ratio of the force due to radiation to the force due to gravity acting on a particle in the solar system. This parameter can later be...

Deformation Reduction in Intermetallic NiAl Microlaminations

Creator:: Joyer, Michael J.
Abstract:: One method of fabricating intermetallic nickel-aluminum MECS devices involves diffusion bonding together pre-patterned elemental foils of nickel and aluminum. This process shows good potential for the mass-production of NiAl devices, but several quality issues remain. Of large concern is the deformation of internal features during the bonding process. This research...

Using Angular Correlation to Determine Decay Behavior in Nuclei through the Analysis of Coincidence Sum Peaks

Creator:: Hager, Werner W., IV
Abstract:: When a nucleus is in an excited state, it will decay to lower energy by emitting photons. Often there are several intermediate stages in a decay cascade. Occasionally the photons in a cascade will be emitted in coincidence. This will be resolved by the detector not as two distinct photons,...

Time Periodic Sand Ripples at the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Korn, Abraham
Abstract:: We consider development of sand ripples in shallow water flows which do not reach an equilibrium height but have a time-varying ripple height that slowly reaches a maximum value and then is quickly destroyed by the fluid. A simple scenario to explain the time periodic behavior of the sand ripples...

Patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish, sebastes spp., along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Young, Thomas
Abstract:: Rockfish of the genus Sebastes are important components of Oregon reef communities. I examined patterns of age and growth in young-of-year rockfish across two nested spatial scales – local and regional – along the Oregon coast. Using otolith microstructural examination, I examined the relative importance of local versus regional factors...

A comparison of three certification systems with the 2005 McDonald-Dunn Forest plan revision

Creator:: Starker, Anna
Abstract:: This study compares the requirements of three forest certification systems, the Sustainable Forestry Institute (SFI), the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), with the 2005 McDonald-Dunn Forest Plan Revision. The analysis was done with a series of matrices comparing the requirements of SFI and FSC...
