  • Seasonal life history of Oncorhynchus mykiss in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon

    Creator:
    Tattam, Ian A.
    Abstract:
    Understanding seasonal changes in growth, survival, and movement rates is crucial to salmonid management. These life history characteristics provide a context for evaluation of management actions. We evaluated the life history of individually marked Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri in the South Fork John Day River basin in Northeastern Oregon. This thesis...

  • Discrete trap modeling of thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Yerubandi, Ganesh Chakravarthy
    Abstract:
    A discrete trap model is developed and employed for elucidation of thin-film transistor (TFT) device physics trends. An attractive feature of this model is that only two model parameters are required, the trap energy depth, E[subscript T], and the trap density, N[subscript T]. The most relevant trends occur when E[subscript...

  • Seasonal movement patterns and habitat use of westslope cutthroat trout in two headwater tributary streams of the John Day River

    Creator:
    Starcevich, Steven J.
    Abstract:
    Radiotelemetry was used to study the seasonal movements and habitat use of adult westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki lewisi in Roberts Creek and Rail Creek, headwater tributaries of the John Day River, Oregon, from September 2000 to December 2001. The objectives were to (1) describe adult cutthroat trout life history...

  • Heat shock proteins and physiological stress in redband rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River, Oregon

    Creator:
    Feldhaus, Joseph W.
    Abstract:
    The goal of this research was to characterize thermal habitat requirements for juvenile redband steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River (SFJD), Oregon using physiological indicators of fish condition. Physiological indices of fish condition measured were whole body lipid content and heat shock proteins, specifically...

  • Headwater stream macroinvertebrates of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon

    Creator:
    Frady, Charles H.
    Abstract:
    Recent studies of headwater streams have demonstrated their importance to overall watershed biodiversity, nutrient cycling, and energy flux. However, little attention has been paid to long-term effects of forest harvest on macroinvertebrate communities in headwater streams. This study investigated headwater stream macroinvertebrate communities in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon,...

  • Inorganic thin-film solar cells

    Creator:
    Spies, Jack Alexander
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this thesis is to explore new absorber and p-type window layer materials for thin-film solar cell applications. A new thin-film electron beam deposition system has been installed, is now operational, and has been used to deposit several types of solar cell absorber layers. Material investigations include...

  • Use of MIKE SHE for estimation of evapotranspiration in the Sprague River Basin

    Creator:
    Shakya, Suva R.
    Abstract:
    MIKE SHE is a fully distributed, physically-based hydrologic model that can simulate water movement over and under the Earth's surface. Evapotranspiration (ET) is one of the components of this model. MIKE SHE uses a modification of the Kristensen -Jensen (1975) method to calculate actual ET. This method is based on...

  • Model predictive control for sagittal plane locomotion

    Creator:
    Maunder, Cary R.
    Abstract:
    A distinct characteristic of legged locomotion is its periodic nature. This periodic motion, in the form of a periodic orbit, has been the target of many walking and running control strategies. The spring loaded inverted pendulum (SLIP) has become a popular model of sagittal plane locomotion, exhibiting behavior characteristic of...
