Dynamic response of an offshore structure to measured and simulated stochastic wave forces

Creator:: Grecco, Michael G.
Abstract:: The dynamic response of an offshore structure to measured and simulated stochastic wave forces is investigated. The theoretical nondeterministic analysis is performed in the frequency domain for a two-dimensional model. The ocean wave system is assumed to be a zero mean, stationary, ergodic Gaussian process described by a one-dimensional wave...

The Ownership Monad

Creator:: McGirr, Michael G.
Abstract:: The Rust programming language is a systems programming language with a strong static type system. A central feature of Rust’s type system is its unique concept of “ownership”, which enables Rust to give a user safe, low-level control over resources without the overhead of garbage collection. In Haskell, most data...

The influence of ectomyorrhizae on drought tolerance characteristics of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) seedlings

Creator:: Dosskey, Michael G.
Abstract:: Douglas-fir seedlings were inoculated with different species of ectomycorrhizae-forming fungi in order to test the concept that ectomycorrhizae enhance the drought tolerance of seedlings and to investigate the mechanisms responsible for this effect. Seedlings were transplanted at age 6 to 8 weeks into pots containing pasteurized loam soil and inoculated...

Effects of prescribed cattle grazing on reforestation in Oregon's southern Cascades

Creator:: Karl, Michael G.
Abstract:: Reforesting harvested lands in southwestern Oregon has been difficult because of low rainfall, high evaporative demand, and competitive understory vegetation. Herbicides have been a preferred method to control competing vegetation but herbicide use on federal lands was curtailed in 1984. As a result, interest in livestock grazing as a vegetation...

An ultrastructural study of tentacle development in Cordylophora lacustris

Creator:: O'Rand, Michael G.
Abstract:: Morphological changes which occur during tentacle formation have been described in the colonial athecate hydroid Cordylophora lacustris. These changes involve an outpocketing of mesoglea into a finger-like extension of the hydranth. Gastrodermal cells line the inside of this extension of mesoglea while ectodermal cells cover the outside. Electron micrographs reveal...

Aqueous-organic partition coefficients for Rn-222 and their application to Radon analysis by liquid scintillation methods

Creator:: Cantaloub, Michael G.
Abstract:: A method is described for determining the partition coefficient, K, for radon gas distributed between an aqueous phase and an organic solvent. The method uses sequential extractions of radon into equal volume aliquots of organic solvent. The radon-laden organic liquid is then counted on a liquid scintillation analyzer with alpha-beta...

Port-Orford-cedar and Phytophthora lateralis : grafting and heritability of resistance in the host, and variation in the pathogen

Creator:: McWilliams, Michael G.
Abstract:: Port-Orford-cedar (Chamaecyparis lawsoniana) is a forest tree native to a small area of Oregon and California. A root disease caused by Phytophthora lateralis causes widespread mortality of Port-Orford-cedar. This dissertation examines three important elements of the Port-Orford-cedar P. lateralis pathosystem related to breeding for disease resistance: use of resistant rootstocks...

The importance of maintenance respiration by living cells in the sapwood of subalpine conifers

Creator:: Ryan, Michael G.
Abstract:: Xylem conducting tissue or sapwood is an important storage organ for water, carbohydrates, and nutrients, and this storage helps trees accommodate environmental change. However, the living ray parenchyma cells in sapwood, which store the carbohydrates and nutrients, require energy for maintenance. I examined how sapwood maintenance costs vary among species,...

Habitat restoration in the Columbia River Estuary : A strategy for implementing standard monitoring protocols

Creator:: Anderson, Michael G.
Abstract:: This project, to propose an implementation strategy for standard monitoring protocols, builds on my Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Fellowship to support a study entitled Evaluating Cumulative Ecosystem Response to Restoration Projects in the Columbia River Estuary (Diefenderfer et al. 2005). The major objective of the study was to develop a...
