The athlete and two stories

Creator:: McDonnell, Peter A.
Abstract:: The purpose of this document is to display a portion of the work I have completed over the last two years. The Athlete is the recently written opening to a novel of the same name. I've decided not to excerpt a longer section of the novel because the novel isn't...

Monitoring redox conditions with redox indicators during microbial reductive dechlorination in microcosms and bioaugmented columns

Creator:: Ruiz-Haas, Peter A.
Abstract:: New methods, sensors, and devices based on redox indicators were developed to monitor redox conditions in anoxic and anaerobic laboratory systems and the subsurface environment. The primary application was monitoring redox conditions during the dechlorination of tetrachioroethene (PCE) to ethene (ETH) in packed columns and microcosm bottles containing an enriched...

Wide band gap semiconductors and insulators : synthesis, processing and characterization

Creator:: Hersh, Peter A.
Abstract:: The work presented here is focused on applying basic principles of solid-state chemistry to the study and development of new wide band-gap semiconductors and insulators for photovoltaic and electronic-device applications. Analysis of crystal structure, band structure, optical band gap, morphology and transport properties provides fundamental insight into materials performance as...

Emulation as an approach for rapid estuarine modeling

Creator:: Parker, Kai, Ruggiero, Peter, Serafin, Katherine A., and Hill, David F.
Abstract:: Probabilistic flood hazard assessment is a promising methodology for estuarine risk assessment but currently remains limited by prohibitively long simulation times. This study addresses this problem through the development of an emulator, or surrogate model, which replaces the simulator (in this case the coupled ADCIRC+SWAN model) with a statistical representation...

Macrophyte wrack on sandy beaches of the US Pacific Northwest is linked to proximity of source habitat, ocean upwelling, and beach morphology

Creator:: Reimer, Jessica N., Hacker, Sally D., Menge, Bruce A., and Ruggiero, Peter
Abstract:: Marine macrophyte wrack (macroalgae and seagrasses) frequently washes onto beaches but little is known about the factors controlling its biogeographic variability. We report on a large-scale study of macrophyte wrack deposition patterns on the US Pacific Northwest coast. We measured macrophyte wrack on 12 sandy beach sites from southern Washington...

An interdisciplinary framework for evaluating 19th century landscape paintings for ecological research

Creator:: Warren, Dana R., Loeb, Harper M., Betjemann, Peter, Munck, Isabel A., Keeton, William S., Shaw, David C., and Harvey, Eleanor J.
Abstract:: As we contemplate the future of forest landscapes under changing climate conditions and land-use demands, there is increasing value in studying historic forest conditions and how these landscapes have changed following past disturbances. Historic landscape paintings are a potential source of data on preindustrial forests with highly detailed, full-color depictions...

The Role of Ecomorphodynamic Feedbacks and Landscape Couplings in Influencing the Response of Barriers to Changing Climate

Creator:: Moore, Laura J., Goldstein, Evan B., Durán Vinent, Orencio, Walters, David, Kirwan, Matthew, Lauzon, Rebecca, Mirray, A. Brad, and Ruggiero, Peter
Abstract:: Because barriers are low-lying and dynamic landforms, they are especially sensitive to changing environmental conditions. The continued existence of barriers will depend on the degree to which these landforms can maintain elevation above sea level while also migrating landward. We are increasingly learning that ecomorphodynamic interactions (i.e., interactions between morphology,...

Mapping Out Climate Change: Assessing How Coastal Communities Adapt Using Alternative Future Scenarios

Creator:: Lipiec, Eva, Ruggiero, Peter, Mills, Alexis, Serafin, Katherine A., Bolte, John, Corcoran, Patrick, Stevenson, John, Zanocco, Chad, and Lach, Denise
Abstract:: Coastal communities are increasingly experiencing climate change–induced coastal disasters and chronic flooding and erosion. Decision makers and the public alike are struggling to reconcile the lack of ‘‘fit’’ between a rapidly changing environment and relatively rigid governance structures. In efforts to bridge this environment-governance gap in Tillamook County, Oregon, stakeholders...

Genetic diversity within late-summer run and half-pounder steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in the Rogue River, Oregon

Creator:: Dayan, David I., Mazur, Steve, Green, Laura J., Wells, Andrew J., Johnson, Marc A., Van Dyke, Daniel J., Samarin, Peter A., Battleson, Ryan D., and O'Malley, Kathleen G.
Abstract:: Anadromous Oncorhynchus mykiss (steelhead) express diverse migratory behaviors and life history strategies. Adult migration timing diversity within steelhead is often categorized into divergent early- and late-migration phenotypes. On the Rogue River in Oregon, adult steelhead return from the ocean during distinct early-summer, late-summer, and winter runs. Additionally, some juvenile steelhead...

Tracking reveals limited interactions between Campbell Albatross and fisheries during the breeding season

Creator:: Sztukowski, Lisa A., van Toor, Mariëlle L., Weimerskirch, Henri, Thompson, David R., Torres, Leigh G., Sagar, Paul M., Cotton, Peter A., and Votier, Stephen C.
Abstract:: Fisheries-related mortality has been influential in driving global declines in seabird populations. Understanding the overlap between seabird distribution and fisheries is one important element in assessing bycatch risk, and may be achieved by tracking the movements of individual birds and fishing vessels. Here, we assess the spatiotemporal overlap between the...
