An investigation of cultural cohesion and value divergence in a community bank

Creator:: Payne, Bryce M.
Abstract:: Interest in organizational culture has grown enormously over the last twenty years and much effort has gone into investigating the relationship between organizational culture and performance. Because most research to date has focused on large organizations, we chose to investigate the culture in a community bank undergoing a cultural transformation....

The potential influence of database configuration on the derivation of trace element partitioning expressions for clinopyroxene

Creator:: Cunningham, Jennifer L.
Abstract:: Decades of experimental work has illustrated the high degree to which the partitioning of most elements is dependent on phase composition, temperature and pressure. In order to quantitatively describe clinopyroxene partitioning it is required to derive expressions using theoretical constraints calibrated with experimental data. The experimental database available for such...

The provenance and trace element signatures of MORB anorthitic plagioclase

Creator:: Burleigh, Andrew W.
Abstract:: In an attempt to understand the phase equilibria and petrogenesis of MORB anorthitic plagioclase, Cr-spinel commonly hosted within anorthitic plagioclase has been investigated petrographically and compositionally. Based on spinel-anorthite relationships from three samples of plagioclase ultra-phyric basalt (PUB; Southeast Indian Ridge, Axial Seamount and West Valley Segment, Juan de Fuca...

Snow Peak, OR: late Miocene to early Pliocene volcanism in the central Cascadia forearc

Creator:: Hatfield, Ashley K.
Abstract:: Snow Peak is a voluminous shield volcano located ~50 km west of the axis of the modern Cascade arc. A previously published K-Ar age estimate indicates that the Snow Peak lavas are ~3 Ma. Subsequently, the preliminary research framework for studying the Snow Peak lavas focused on constraining the petrogenesis...

Utilization of natural and supplemental biofuels for harvesting energy from marine sediments

Creator:: Nielsen, Mark E.
Abstract:: A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...

Magmatic processes beneath mid-ocean ridges : insights from mineral and glass chemistry in plagioclase ultraphyric basalts

Creator:: Lange, Amy E.
Abstract:: Prior to eruption at mid-ocean ridges, melts must travel through >6 km of crust from their origin in the mantle. The final composition of the melts is dependent on both the melting conditions and magmatic processes within the crust. While mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) glasses are commonly used to infer...

Determination of marine migratory behavior and its relationship to selected physical traits for least cisco (Coregonus sardinella) of the western Arctic coastal plain, Alaska

Creator:: Seigle, John C.
Abstract:: With increased resource development on the western Arctic coastal plain of Alaska (especially within the oil extraction industry) it is important to understand the basic life history attributes of whitefish stocks in the region in order to ensure appropriate management. These fish are a crucial part of subsistence harvests for...

Analysis of the processing and characterization of p-type CuScO₂ thin films

Creator:: Nielsen, Benjamin C.
Abstract:: Two different doping techniques, oxygen intercalation and Mg cation substitution, were investigated in thin film p-type CuScO₂, a wide band gap semiconductor with the delafossite structure. Films rf-sputtered onto amorphous SiO₂ substrates were polycrystalline after post-deposition annealing. X-ray diffraction was used to determine that the films are predominantly polycrystalline 3R...

An Experimental and Analytical Investigation of the Parameters that Influence Measured CO₂ in Plagioclase-Hosted Melt Inclusions in MORBs

Creator:: Drignon, Melissa J.
Abstract:: To understand the processes that lead to the formation of the oceanic crust, one must know the composition and the depth at which primary melts originate. Towards this end, this dissertation focuses on plagioclase-hosted melt inclusions from plagioclase ultraphyric basalts (PUBs). Plagioclase is usually considered to be the second phase,...

Development of a progeny marker for steelhead

Creator:: Shippentower, Gene E.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to determine if strontium chloride could be used to create a trans-generational otolith mark in steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). I completed two strontium injection trials and a survey of juvenile steelhead from various steelhead hatcheries. The two trials measured Sr:Ca ratios in otoliths in response to injections...
