  • Weevils That Live Under Trees Thrown Out of the Sea: Phylogeny and Microbial Diversity of Sthereus Motschulsky, 1845 and Related Weevils (Curculionidae: Molytinae)

    Creator:
    Young, Natasha
    Abstract:
    Here the diversity and phylogeny of the genus, Sthereus Motschulsky, 1845, and its nearest associates in the large subfamily Molytinae are explored through molecular and morphological characters. Sanger sequencing of five genes determined that Sthereus is not monophyletic. Instead, the one species in the genus Gastrotaphrus Buchanan 1936, G. barberi...

  • Student Evaluative Sensemaking on Homework in Intermediate Mechanics

    Creator:
    Hahn, Kelby T.
    Abstract:
    Physicists seek to understand the world and often use mathematics to aid in attaining that goal. Thus when doing mathematics they often interrogate their results in order to ensure that they align with their expectations and to gain new insight into how the world works. This seeking of coherence between...

  • Low Impact Development in the Ash Creek Watershed, Oregon : Feasibility Study and Implementation Tool Design

    Creator:
    Chalmers, Douglas R.
    Abstract:
    This study presents potential Low Impact Development (LID) solutions for the Ash Creek watershed and designs several tools to assist localities in implementing the solutions they may choose. Ash Creek is a tributary of the Willamette River flowing through Dallas, Monmouth, and Independence in Polk County, Oregon. Currently, Ash Creek...

  • Forestry Stereo Project

    Creator:
    Lowell, Michael T.
    Abstract:
    This project covers the construction of a Stereo Camera System, integration with a Velodyne VLP-16 LIDAR and the creation of dataset intended to aid in the development of vision algorithms for forestry applications. This project is the first step in a future multi-stage project to implement computer vision systems for...

  • Network monitoring with focus on HTTP

    Creator:
    Schmid, Andreas
    Abstract:
    Since its introduction in the early 1990s, the quick growth of the World Wide Web (WWW) traffic raises the question of whether past Local Area Network (LAN) packet traces still reflect the current situation or whether they have become obsolete. For this thesis, several LAN packet traces were obtained by...

  • Ecological Forestry : A Critical Analysis

    Creator:
    Batavia, Chelsea
    Abstract:
    Although science is widely accepted as a fundamental source of information underlying decisions about forest management and conservation, considerably less attention has been paid to the inevitable role that normative values and beliefs play in such decisions. This thesis highlights the normative dimensions of "ecological forestry," a strategy of forest...

  • The graduate student experience at Oregon State University and the transition to graduate school

    Creator:
    Feller, Wendé Marie
    Abstract:
    The graduate student experience varies for each individual. While some graduate students decide to continue school after being away from some time, others continue with their studies immediately following the completion of their Bachelor's degree. This decision to continue one's education can be difficult and may require further assistance from...

  • Steady-State Diffusion in a Spatially Varying Porous Medium

    Creator:
    Ferrero, Peter T.
    Abstract:
    Heterogeneous porous material represents a persistent challenge in the field of engineering. Microscale properties such as the porosity and microchannel torturosity significantly control the macroscale transport characteristics of homogeneous porous medium. Additional complexity is introduced when these small-scale features vary in space. Examples of heterogeneous porous systems include artificial body...
