Biophysical factors driving the distribution and abundance of redband/steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri) in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Madriñán, Luis Francisco
Abstract:: The overall goal of this study was to identify multiple scales of habitat use and habitat electivity by redband/steelhead trout and define the limiting factors affecting the distribution patterns of this species during summer flows. The main objective in chapter 2 was to identify the most important habitat associations that...

Nesting season ecology of marbled murrelets at a remote mainland fjord in southeast Alaska

Creator:: Barbaree, Blake A.
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on the nesting ecology and marine space use of Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) during the 2007 and 2008 nesting seasons in and around Port Snettisham, a remote mainland fjord in Southeast Alaska. Marbled Murrelets (murrelets) are a declining species throughout most of their range, and their conservation...

Exploring Retention of Millennial-Aged Noninstructional Administrators in Washington Community Colleges

Creator:: Dotson, Tawny M.
Abstract:: Background. As community colleges are increasingly composed of Millennial-aged professionals, workforce retention of those professionals is now a major priority. The Millennial generation is more diverse and more likely to be impacted by technology than any generation before them and is a generation characterized by dual-income partnerships. These and other...

Knot theory : in imitation of Lewis Thomas

Creator:: Schmidgall, Matthew J.
Abstract:: Knot Theory: In Imitation of Lewis Thomas is a collection of 14, 1200-word essays written in the style of Lewis Thomas, a physician who regularly contributed to The New England Journal of Medicine. His 1200-word column, "Notes of a Biology Watcher," ran from 1971 - 1980. The resulting compilations collectively...

Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters : Investigating Control Strategies and the Deployment of a Scaled Generic Prototype

Creator:: Boren, Blake C.
Abstract:: Vertical Axis Pendulum Wave Energy Converters (VAPWECs) are thought to be both effective and robust at converting ocean wave energy into usable electricity. Seeking to build upon and investigate such potential, this work examines the merits of actively controlling a generic VAPWEC's pendulum for the purpose of increasing the converter's...

On the modeling and control of horizontal pendulum wave energy converters

Creator:: Boren, Blake C.
Abstract:: Presented is an investigation into the modeling, active control design, and simulation of a generic horizontal pendulum wave energy converter, known as a PWEC. A description is provided of the dominant attributes PWECs have, showcasing their promising potential as wave energy converters. Seeking to further promote this potential, an active...

Genomic identification of candidate inclusion membrane proteins in Chlamydial species and microscopic analysis

Creator:: Blake, Nathanael A.
Abstract:: The Chlamydiaceae are a family of obligate intracellular bacteria with a unique biphasic developmental cycle. The replicating, metabolically active, intracellular phase bacteria (RBs) grow within a cellular vacuole know as the inclusion. Since the proteins the Chlamydiaceae secrete into this membrane are the means of host/parasite interaction, they have long...

Expansion of scouringrush (Equisetum spp. L.) : crop interference and control options in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and chemical fallow cropping cropping systems

Creator:: Kerbs, Blake D.
Abstract:: Scouringrushes (Equisetum hyemale L.; E. xferrissii Clute; E. laevigatum L.) are ancient perennial seedless vascular plants historically associated with wetlands, low-lying roadsides or field margins with more plant available water. There has been little research conducted on scouringrush species in the context of agricultural production because traditional farming practices confined...

Development of a meta-model for behavioral model representation and reuse

Creator:: Giles, Blake Jensen
Abstract:: Behavioral modeling is increasingly an imperative component of system design as the systems under construction become more and more complex. Without behavioral modeling available to the modern designer, design and verification of these systems would be much more laborious. Additionally, with the increasing computational power of today's modeling and simulation...

Scaling analysis of the Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System for Gas-cooled Fast Reactors during a Depressurized Loss of Forced Convection Event

Creator:: Blake, Grant C.
Abstract:: The Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System (DRACS) is a passive safety system capable of removing decay heat directly from the reactor core. Its modularity makes it scalable for use in reactors with various power levels. Work has previously been completed to support inclusion of the DRACS in liquid metal reactors...
