The geology and stratigraphy of the Tertiary volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks, with special emphasis on the Deschutes Formation, from Lake Simtustus to Madras in central Oregon

Creator:: Jay, Jeremy Barth
Abstract:: A sequence of volcanic, volcaniclastic, and epiclastic deposits from Oligocene to Recent age are exposed in the region from Lake Simtustus to Madras in central Oregon. The epiclastic sediments of the Oligocene John Day Formation are unconformably overlain by two flows of the middle Miocene Columbia River Basalt Group. The...

Diurnal wind-driven processes on the northern Monterey Bay inner shelf

Creator:: Suanda, Sutara H.
Abstract:: In the summer of 2007, a biophysical experiment was conducted to identify physical processes that determine the delivery of invertebrate larvae and juvenile rockfish to rocky intertidal and kelp forest communities in northern Monterey Bay, California. The experiment was sponsored by the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO)...

Integration of oceanographic information off the Washington and Oregon coasts into west coast groundfish ecology and fisheries management

Creator:: Juan Jorda, Maria Jose
Abstract:: To date, the use of oceanographic data in fisheries management has been limited by the scarcity and the difficulty of accessing complete oceanographic datasets. Consequently, fish stocks are managed with limited knowledge about the habitat where fish live and incomplete understanding of what oceanographic conditions affect their populations. With the...

Evaluation of dungeness crab pots as platforms of opportunity for ocean-observing research

Creator:: Childress, Jeremy L.
Abstract:: Oregon Fishermen in Ocean Observing Research (OrFIOOR) is a cooperative research program between ocean scientists and fishermen in the Pacific Northwest. Dungeness crab fishermen attach sensor packages (temperature and dissolved oxygen) to crab pots. The pots serve as platforms of opportunity for ocean observing. This study examines three principle questions...

Durability and Performance of High Early Strength Concrete for Structural Bridge Deck Overlays

Creator:: Smith, Jeremy A.
Abstract:: High early strength concrete (HESC) allows for faster construction with less impact on traffic, thus reducing the indirect costs associated with a project. There are multiple methods for achieving early strength, such as alternative cements like calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) or chemically accelerated portland cements. The standard criteria for an HESC...

Practical Reinforcement Learning for Bipedal Locomotion

Creator:: Dao, Jeremy
Abstract:: Reinforcement learning has emerged as a popular tool for solving control tasks, with multiple works focusing on the complex and dynamic task of locomotion. However, the naive application of reinforcement learning to this problem often produces maladaptive policies that exploit the model or reward function. This results in behavior that...

Design and testing of an integrated wildlife-wind turbine interactions detection system

Creator:: Flowers, Jeremy Matthew
Abstract:: Bird and bat mortalities caused by interactions with wind turbines is a critical concern that requires addressing for conservation purposes. Deploying a low cost sensor array will be instrumental during site permitting, conducting impact assessments of existing wind farms, and assessing efficacy of wildlife mortality mitigation or wildlife deterrent technologies....

Hydrogeologic field investigation and groundwater flow model of the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Craner, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: Elevated groundwater nitrate (NO3 -) concentrations in the Southern Willamette Valley (SWV) caused the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) to declare a Groundwater Management Area (GWMA) in Spring, 2004. To better understand direction of groundwater flow, groundwater age, and nitrate transport pathways of the SWV we developed a steady-state...

Weighing the Benefits of Returning Fire to the Landscape: Strategic Fire Management Workloads

Creator:: Goodwin, Ian
Abstract:: The accumulation of fuels in fire prone landscapes, and changing climatic conditions, have resulted in increasingly volatile fire behaviors. As a result, social and operational risk, management expenditures, and budgetary requirements for responsible agencies are increasing. The United States Forest Service (USFS) manages 193 million acres across the United States...

Fishing for Hypoxia: Exploring Coastal Oxygen Dynamics and Predictability of Low Oxygen Episodes through a Partnership with the Oregon Dungeness Crab Fishing Fleet

Creator:: Stoltz, Linus O.
Abstract:: Coastal hypoxia, or low oxygen episodes pose a threat to marine resources in the Pacific Northwest. Previous research into nearshore oxygen dynamics have linked coastal upwelling to this seasonally occurring phenomenon, however the manifestation of hypoxic waters over coastal fishing grounds was not well understood. Through a partnership with Dungeness...
