Assessing mental workload and situation awareness in the evaluation of real-time, critical user interfaces

Creator:: Strawn, Jordan J.
Abstract:: While there are many ways to evaluate a user interface design, the user's mental workload and situation awareness (SA) are particularly important considerations in the supervisory control of safety-critical systems. Typically, operators of these systems must monitor high-volume, time-sensitive status information. Interface design for this domain can be challenging and...

Hydraulic predictors and seasonal distribution of Manayunkia speciosa density in the Klamath River, CA, with implications for ceratomyxosis, a disease of salmon and trout

Creator:: Jordan, Michelle S.
Abstract:: The freshwater polychaete Manayunkia speciosa was identified as an obligate host of the salmonid parasite Ceratomyxa shasta in 1997, prompting increased research on the small benthic invertebrate. Ceratomyxa shasta infection in fish can cause mortality, and presents a disease risk for both hatchery and wild salmon and trout. Ceratomyxa shasta...

Soil Health and the Response of the Soil Microbial Community to Disturbances across Western North America

Creator:: Kersey, Jordan H.
Abstract:: Temperate coniferous forests, such as those that cover vast areas of the western US and Canada, have evolved to depend on cycles of disturbance for succession of species and overall ecosystem maintenance. Many of these forest systems are managed, often for timber production, where disturbances are of anthropogenic origin and...

Plant Species Diversity and Pasture Productivity of a High-input Dairy Pastureland System and a Low-input Sheep Pastureland System in Western Oregon, USA

Creator:: Anderson, Jordan D.
Abstract:: The sustainable use of natural resources, including the goods and services provided by pasturelands and rangelands, is of growing importance due to climatic uncertainty and population growth. Maintaining high productivity in livestock operations is necessary as land availability diminishes and global populations rise. The potential negative impacts to the environment...

Regional Scale Modeling of Climate, Cryosphere, and Freshwater Discharge in Changing Coastal Mountain Environments

Creator:: Beamer, Jordan P.
Abstract:: The glaciated coastal mountain watersheds that drain into the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) provide a model laboratory to explore the challenges of hydrological modeling and study the impact of climate and glacier cover change on regional hydrology. The region is data-sparse and contains a complex assemblage of topography and land...

The Modeling of Core-Wide Behavior of Pebble Bed Reactors Using Static and Dynamic Graphite Pebble Properties to Predict Core Performance and Safety Behaviors

Creator:: Cox, Jordan T.
Abstract:: The United States Department of Energy has identified the pebble-bed reactor as a high priority for US research with the end goal of licensing a pebble-bed reactor (PBR) for operation in the United States. Before this can be accomplished significant research must be done regarding the safety of the pebble-bed...
