Diffuse deformation patterns along the North American plate boundary zone, offshore western United States

Creator:: Chaytor, Jason D.
Abstract:: Plate boundaries are commonly regions of complex, diffuse deformation with the motion across the boundary accommodated by numerous structural systems, rather than being narrow, discrete zones of deformation. One such boundary occurs where the North American plate makes contact with Juan de Fuca, Gorda, and Pacific plates along the west...

Remote sensing of radiation stress gradients from optical imagery

Creator:: Killian, Jason R.
Abstract:: Wave-induced circulation is the defining characteristic of the nearshore. Within this region, the constant feedback cycle between incoming waves, wave-generated currents, and the mobile sediment bed is responsible for the evolution of complex patterns in nearshore and beach morphology. Central to our understanding of this system is knowledge of the...

Characterization of the near-field flow structure of an acoustically self-excited jet in a large enclosure using particle image velocimetry (PIV)

Creator:: Tobias, Jason A.
Abstract:: An experimental study of the near-field flow structure produced by an incompressible turbulent Acoustically Self-Excited Jet (ASEJ) in a large enclosure using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is presented. The salient feature of this jet is that it provides an increase in near-field mixing and turbulence without additional external power input....

Optimal soaring by a small autonomous glider

Creator:: Kyle, Jason A.
Abstract:: Extending the flight time of an autonomous unmanned air vehicle by soaring is considered. A suboptimal controller is developed and successful static soaring is demonstrated with a 6 degree of freedom glider model. Altitude gain rates of between ¼ and ½ m/s are achieved with this simple implementation. A hybrid...

Transmission of the chewing louse, Damalinia (Cervicola) sp., from Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) to Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) and its role in deer hair-loss syndrome.

Creator:: Robison, Jason A.
Abstract:: The potential for Rocky Mountain mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus hemionus) to host exotic chewing lice (Damalinia (Cervicola) sp.) believed to cause deer hair loss syndrome in Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus), was investigated in captive deer held in pens at E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Corvallis, Oregon from March 2004...

Boating in Alaska's Prince William Sound : modeling and assessment of recreational use

Creator:: Wolfe, Phillip E.
Abstract:: This study measures the recreational boating use in Prince William Sound, Alaska. Improved access conditions to the Sound over the last decade coupled with a statewide increase in outdoor recreation participation among both resident and out of state tourists have made the Sound a focal point for recreational boating in...

Age-related response of isolated rat hepatocytes to menadione and (R)-[alpha]-lipoic acid

Creator:: Graves, Jason T.
Abstract:: Age-related decline in the capacity of endogenous antioxidant systems complicates pharmaceutical use by the elderly by potentially increasing the toxicity of some compounds. Of particular interest is chemical detoxification via glutathione (GSH) and attendant GSH-requiring detoxification enzymes, e.g. GSH peroxidases (GPX) and GSH S-transferase (GST). These enzymes have been shown...

The effect of nicotinic acid supplementation during late-gestation on lipolysis and feed intake during the transition period

Creator:: Chamberlain, Jason L.
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted with 27 multiparous Holstein and 27 multiparous Jersey cows to determine if nicotinic acid (NA) supplementation during the prepartum phase of the transition period decreases lipolysis and improves dry matter intake and to determine if Holstein and Jersey cows respond similarly to NA supplementation. Cows were...

Biogeographic and experimental evidence for local scale dispersal limitation in central Panamanian forest birds

Creator:: Moore, Randall Phillips, 1965-
Abstract:: I examined the avian biogeography of the islands of Lago Gatun, Panama, in an effort to better understand the effects of forest fragmentation in this biodiverse region, and specifically to understand the importance of fragment isolation and the mechanism behind its effects on tropical bird distribution. I combined exhaustive surveys...

The role of marginalized discourses in constructing the white identity of preservice teachers

Creator:: Nava, Roberto Chavira, Jr.
Abstract:: This research addresses the complexities of White racial identity development in the lives of five elementary and middle school preservice teachers during their graduate teacher education program at a private Christian Pacific Northwestern university. Using a poststructural framework, this research investigated three questions: 1) How do the aspects of subjectivation...
