Stratigraphy, depositional environments, and diagenesis of the Devonian Simonson and Guilmette Formations in the White Pine, Egan, and Schell Creek Ranges, White Pine County, Nevada

Creator:: DeDen, F. Michael
Abstract:: The Devonian Simonson and Guilmette Formations provide examples of Cordilleran miogeosynclinal inner and middle shelf carbonate deposition that act in response to changes in eustasy, sedimentation, and tectonics. The Simonson Dolomite consists of four members that collectively record three distinct transgressive-regressive cycles. The Coarse Crystalline dolomudstone lithofacies represents restricted upper...

Development of organocatalyzed, intramolecular heteroatom Michael addition and application towards alkaloid synthesis

Creator:: Carlson, Erik
Abstract:: Effective methods for the enantiopure formation of substituted piperidine rings are significantly important due to their presence in alkaloid products. A valuable method to form these ring systems would be via an intramolecular heteroatom Michael addition from the corresponding enone or enal. Described herein is a methodolgy that has been...

Rearing density as a driver of adaptation to captivity and traits under selection by domestication in hatchery reared steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Thompson, Neil F.
Abstract:: Releasing hatchery reared salmon and steelhead to supplement threatened and endangered populations is a widely used conservation tool. One issue with this strategy is hatchery fish have lower reproductive fitness than wild fish when spawning in the wild. One of the drivers of fitness loss in steelhead is adaptation to...

A software implementation of a virtual network simulator

Creator:: Domka, Walter F.
Abstract:: A software system to study network algorithms was implemented on UNIX. Each part of a network algorithm is written as a single C program which becomes a virtual node in the network. During a simulation, all virtualized nodes run as separate processes on a single PDP 11/40. Inter-node communication is...

Thinking Outside of the Lunchbox: Exploring Competing Narratives in the Corvallis 509J District School Lunch Policies

Creator:: Inman, Cassandra F.
Abstract:: At its inception in 1946, the United States’ National School Lunch Program (NSLP) was promoted as a success story; a boon for families navigating poverty, a means of buoying food prices by absorbing farm surplus, and a treatment for hunger in some of our country’s most vulnerable populations. Government subsidies...

The GEK signatures of lowest mode internal waves

Creator:: Lipparelli, Michael Arthur
Abstract:: Present GEK (Geomagnetic Electrokinetograph) theory is extended to include internal waves of the lowest mode. The predicted towed electrode GEK signal is determined to second-order for long-crested internal waves in a finite but deep ocean. The analysis includes the determination of GEK signatures for small amplitude and finite amplitude interfacial...
