An Ecological Assessment of a Potential Sea Otter (Enhydra lutris) Reintroduction to the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Kone, Dominique
Abstract:: Sea otters (Enhydra lutris) used to exist along coastlines throughout much of the North Pacific Ocean.

Advancing the understanding of bulk metallic glasses as structural materials through exploration of mechanical properties

Creator:: Naleway, Steven E.
Abstract:: Bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) offer a great deal of potential through their near-theoretical strength, potentially high toughness and unique forming and molding traits. However, there are still a number of outstanding issues that bar their widespread use. This thesis describes the investigation of three research questions each designed to further...

A preliminary assessment of hydrogeologic suitability for Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) in Oregon

Creator:: Woody, Jen
Abstract:: An ASR metric and site rating index applied to over 120 municipal and agricultural locations across Oregon, combined with comparison to case study data from existing ASR sites, indicate that more than 50% of selected sites are hydrogeologically suitable for ASR. The ASR metric is a ratio of aquifer storage...
