"Style upon style": The Handmaid's Tale as a palimpsest of genres

Creator:: Boulware, Taylor J.
Abstract:: This thesis undertakes an examination of Margaret Atwood’s 1985 novel, The Handmaid’s Tale, as a layering of genres. A futuristic dystopia that imagines late twentieth-century America as having fallen into neo-Puritanism and totalitarianism following widespread infertility and violence, The Handmaid’s Tale invites contemplation of various forms of fundamentalism, radicalism, and...

Dissolved nitrogen in surface waters and nitrogen mineralization in riparian soils within a multi-land use basin

Creator:: Evans, Daniel M.
Abstract:: The growing population of Oregon’s Willamette River Basin places an increasing demand on the basin’s surface waters. Watershed-scale research addressing spatial trends of dissolved nitrogen (DN) and its relationship with landuse and soil N dynamics, such as N mineralization, is sparse in the Willamette Basin. I measured DN along 124...

Does the Matrix Matter? Using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Technology to Examine Hummingbird Movements in Fragmented Tropical Landscapes

Creator:: Jackson, Evan R.
Abstract:: There is increasing evidence that the type of land cover surrounding remnant patches of native habitats (the ‘matrix’) can modify effects of landscape change on biodiversity; thus the traditional idea of dichotomous habitat and non-habitat following island biogeography theory is insufficient in complex landscapes. Matrix type can have dramatic influences...

The Genetics of Larval Fitness in the Pacific Oyster: Responses to Acidified Seawater and Temporally Dynamic Selection Processes

Creator:: Durland, Evan R.
Abstract:: The Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is one of the most economically and ecologically significant shellfish species worldwide. In the Pacific Northwest United States (PNW), the sustainability oyster stocks is increasingly threatened by ocean acidification (OA), which has had significant negative effects on the aquaculture industry in this region over the...

Hydrodynamic loads on fiber-optic micro cables

Creator:: Evans, Matthew R.
Abstract:: A Finite Element Model of a deployed Fiber-Optic Micro Cable (FOMC) was performed using the marine cable modeling software, OrcaFlex. The focus of this study was a parametric analysis of a two-part, towed cable array with the FOMC dragged behind a depressor and connected to a drogue chute. Length-to-diameter ratios...

Jumping in with Both Feet: Exploring Factors that Shape Juvenile Amphibian Movement

Creator:: Bredeweg, Evan M.
Abstract:: Investigation into how animals move within the landscape is important for both understanding of ecological processes and conservation management. Animal movement is important in shaping life history transitions, demographics, individual fitness, and species distributions. However, as landscapes become increasingly affected by human activities, movement becomes important as species navigate landscapes...

Optimization under Uncertainty of a Magnetohydrodynamics Generator

Creator:: Rajbhandari, Evan
Abstract:: Within this dissertation, we develop tools and techniques to demonstrate the feasibility of real-time optimization of a magnetohydrodynamics generator. To ease computational complexity, we work on the kinematic magnetohydrodynamic system, prescribing the ﬂuid-ﬂow and model the material response of the system through an updated Generalized Ohm’s law. We focus on...
