Long term albacore (Thunnus alalunga) spatio-temporal association with environmental variability in the Northeastern Pacific

Creator:: Phillips, A. Jason
Abstract:: This study investigated long-term (1961-2008) changes in albacore (Thunnus alalunga) abundance and distribution in relation to local environmental and large-scale climate indices in the Northeastern Pacific using time series and spatial analyses. Prior to the time series analysis, a wavelet analysis was conducted to examine nonrandom patterns of cyclical variability...

Headwater Dynamics: Quantifying Spatial Differences in Flow Permanence and Network Connectivity across Diverse Landscapes

Creator:: Pate, Adam A.
Abstract:: Forested headwater streams are critical for the supply of water, sediment, nutrients, and organic matter to downstream water bodies. Nearly half of all headwater streams display temporary flow regimes (i.e., non-perennial), but with climate change they may become more common. Thus, it will be increasingly imperative to adequately represent non-perennial...

Chromium Phillips Catalyst on Tin Oxide Substrate: Deposition and Characterization

Creator:: Chen, Di
Abstract:: In order to synthesize polyethylene by the microreactor with a catalyst, this thesis prepares the chemical coating layers for the reactor channel. There are two layers in the channel: the Phillips catalysts and an antimony-doped tin oxide layer on glass substrate. The Phillips catalyst help to synthesize polyethylene in the...

Internal curing of high-performance concrete for bridge decks

Creator:: Deboodt, Tyler
Abstract:: High performance concrete (HPC) provides a long lasting, durable concrete that is typically used in bridge decks due to its low permeability, high abrasion resistance, freeze-thaw resistance and strength. However, this type of concrete is highly susceptible to the deleterious effects of both autogenous and drying shrinkage. Both types of...

Improving the Performance of High Early Strength Concrete by Controlling Self-Desiccation and Mitigating Shrinkage

Creator:: Wilson, Cameron A.
Abstract:: High early strength (HES) concrete is becoming increasingly used to repair damaged concrete pavement sections. The use of HES concrete enables the repaired pavement to be opened to traffic within hours of placing the concrete. A common approach used for the rapid repair of concrete pavement consists of closing a...

Vegetation and Small Mammal Responses to Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) Control in Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Morozumi, Corinne N.
Abstract:: Shrub-steppe ecosystems of western North America provide habitat for many wildlife species, are important components of public and private rangelands, and offer recreational opportunities for millions of people. They are some of the most vulnerable ecosystems in the United States and have been altered by human activities such as livestock...

Does Fatigue Influence the Assessment of Critical Speed when Multiple Test Trials are Conducted in a Single Session

Creator:: Jones, Cameron
Abstract:: The Critical Power - W’ model has many advantages compared to the traditional VO2max test, including tracking fitness changes over time in well trained athletes, predicting performances due to its discrete aerobic and high intensity tolerance variables, and prescribing exercise intensities with increased accuracy. However, a major disadvantage of this...

Toward a mixture design methodology for internally cured concrete that considers filling specific pore sizes caused by self-desiccation

Creator:: Montanari, Luca
Abstract:: Internal curing is a term used to describe a process in which curing water is provided to a concrete mixture from inside the mixture. Internal curing water has typically been provided in North America mixtures by using prewetted porous materials, like fine lightweight aggregate (FLWA). Alternative materials, such as superabsorbent...

Responses of juvenile coho salmon and larval lamprey to instream habitat restoration in a Pacific Northwest stream

Creator:: Gonzalez, Rosalinda
Abstract:: Large wood has been utilized in many restoration projects to improve in-stream habitat in the Pacific Northwest for salmon. However, the benefits of this practice remain the subject of ongoing debate and evaluation of these projects has scarcely been done for non-salmonid species such as lamprey. In this study we...

Early maturing males in a partially migratory population of anadromous and resident rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss: influences of individual condition and stream temperature

Creator:: McMillan, John R.
Abstract:: Alternative male phenotypes in salmonine fishes arise from individuals that mature as either larger and older anadromous marine-migrants or as smaller and younger freshwater residents. Variability in age and size of males at maturity is hypothesized to be preceded by early differences in growth in size and lipid storage. Water...
