  • Tidal range changes in the Delaware Bay : past conditions and future scenarios

    Creator:
    Hall, George F.
    Abstract:
    Throughout the Holocene, appreciable changes in bathymetry are hypothesized to have resulted in large changes to tidal datums in coastal and estuarine areas. An understanding of tidal change is an important contribution to the knowledge of relative historical sea-level change and future coastal planning. To test this hypothesis, the Advanced...

  • Coupled wave and surge modeling of Tillamook Bay, Oregon : extreme events and climate change impacts

    Creator:
    Cheng, Tiffany Kay
    Abstract:
    Estuaries represent the confluence of land and ocean environments and encompass a number of complex interactions amongst tides, winds, offshore waves and the riverine contributions, all of which contribute to total water levels (TWLs). The study of TWLs and the relative weight of its components can assist local communities in...

  • Estimating freshwater fluxes into the Gulf of Alaska

    Creator:
    Bruhis, Noa
    Abstract:
    Regression equations for mean monthly streamflow in watersheds running off into the Gulf of Alaska have been determined. The equations were obtained by regressing observed streamflow at 246 USGS and Environment Canada gaging stations against a number of relevant meteorological and basin physical parameters. Meteorological parameters include mean monthly precipitation,...

  • Tsunami propagation in large rivers : idealized cases and the Columbia River Estuary

    Creator:
    Kalmbacher, Kirk D.
    Abstract:
    The hazards associated with tsunamis are well known and have been studied for decades. The majority of research is, however, focused on open coastlines which bear the brunt of a tsunamis force. Other regions that can be strongly impacted by a tsunami are large estuaries. Here, the tsunami encounters a...

  • Geology of the Whetstone anticline area, Teton County Wyoming

    Creator:
    Hill, David Ray
    Abstract:
    Over 10,000 feet of marine and nonmarine Late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks are exposed within a 110 square mile area in northeastern Teton County, Wyoming. An additional 1400 feet of nonmarine Paleocene and Miocene rocks overlie these. Landslide deposits and Pleistocene glacial moraine cover over one-half of the area. The Late...

  • The structure of the central nervous system of jumping spiders of the genus Phidippus (Araneae:Salticidae)

    Creator:
    Hill, David Edwin
    Abstract:
    The central nervous system of Phidippus, while comparable to that of other spiders in most respects, is distinguished by the extraordinary development of visual processing centers, associated with the complex visually-directed behavior of these animals. The primary neuropile of the anterior medial eyes consists of two distinct columnar synapsing regions....

  • The Waldo Hills Highland bentgrass area

    Creator:
    Fenton, David S.
    Abstract:
    The Willamette Valley in Oregon produces over 90% of the Highland bentgrass seed produced in the United States. Approximately two-thirds of this production comes from a well-defined area on the eastern edge of the Waldo Hills, east of Salem. This concentration seems to be related to a set of physical...

  • The Pursuit of Hoppiness : Propelling Hop into the Genomic Era

    Creator:
    Hill, Steven T.
    Abstract:
    Hop (Humulus lupulus L. var lupulus) is a plant of great cultural significance, used as a medicinal herb for thousands of years, and for flavor and as a preservative in brewing beer. Studies of the medicinal effects of the unique compounds produced by hop have led to interest from the...

  • Modeling Elevation-Dependent Snow Sensitivity to Climate Warming in the Data Sparse Eastern Oregon Cascades

    Creator:
    Cooper, Matthew Guy
    Abstract:
    In the mountains of the Western US, shifts in the timing and magnitude of snow water equivalent (SWE) over the past century are well documented and attributed to climate warming, but the magnitude of sensitivity depends on elevation. We modeled the spatial distribution of SWE and its sensitivity to climate...
