Modeling hop kilning with respect to energy consumption and drying kinetics

Creator:: Thomas, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Currently, little work has been performed studying energy consumption in hop kilning. This thesis explores drying with an alternative drying schedule that extends the initially elevated drying temperature currently used by growers and examines its impact on drying time and energy use. Extending the time of the initially elevated drying...

Monotonic and Cyclic Testing of Cross-Laminated Timber Diaphragms

Creator:: Beairsto, Cody J.
Abstract:: Mass timber is emerging as a viable form of construction around the world in new markets for wood buildings. The entrance into these markets has driven the demand for more knowledge to enable designs alongside other structural materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. Large, in-plane tests on cross-laminated timber...

Vulnerability and adaptation of Pacific Northwest shellfisheries to ocean acidification

Creator:: Katz, Brian G.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to understand the vulnerability and adaptive capacity of shellfish stakeholders in the Pacific Northwest who are adapting to ocean acidification (OA). This study developed a geovisualization tool of existing environmental data for assessing species-specific risk profiles to OA (based on their exposure and sensitivity),...

Breeding Snap Beans for Organic Agriculture: Genomic Shifts under Different Agricultural Management Systems

Creator:: King, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Although the concept of breeding crops for organic agricultural systems has been around for decades, few studies have been reported for vegetable crops to quantify and compare how conventional and organic systems differ in their selection pressures on genotypes advancing through the breeding cycle; especially research utilizing modern sequencing capabilities....

Spatiotemporal distribution of the anti-diabetic drug, metformin, in the lower Columbia River and its effect on phytoplankton growth

Creator:: Cummings, Brittany M.
Abstract:: Water quality impacts both human and ecosystem health. Many pharmaceuticals and personal care products are considered contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) due to their bioactive properties. Among these, metformin—the most commonly prescribed drug for treatment of type 2 diabetes—has been reported at high concentrations (μg L⁻¹) in stream, lake, and...

Elicitors: A Novel Tool for Controlling the Colorado Potato Beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Creator:: Butcher, Alexander M.
Abstract:: Over the last several decades, potato production has increased globally as it has been recognized as an important component to improving food security. However, potato production has been continuously challenged by pests. Current pest management practices rely heavily on chemical pesticides. Unfortunately, the overuse of pesticides can be harmful to...

‘Difficult to place’? Understanding child and family level factors affecting placement stability for youth in foster care

Creator:: Probert, Kylee
Abstract:: Introduction: Youth in foster care face greater rates of trauma and subsequent mental health challenges (Bruce et al., 2009; O’Neill et al., 2012; Seltzer et al., 2012; etc.) that place increased burden on their caregivers (Daniel, 2011; McKeough et al., 2017), suggesting that these specific groups of youth in foster...

Small Scale Modeling of a Broad Area Detector Network Array

Creator:: Johnson, Patrick M.
Abstract:: Nuclear material monitoring systems have long been established at ports of entry. However, there are no standard systems for monitoring points of interest within the country. Therefore, the use of a network of radiation sensors deployed throughout an area of interest is being investigated within this thesis. Before full scale...

Evaluation of Pacific Lamprey Entosphenus Tridentatus Anatomical Structures as Records of Age and Isotope Histories

Creator:: Pelekai, Keala N.
Abstract:: The anadromous Pacific Lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) is a biologically and culturally important species native to the North Pacific Ocean and its adjacent freshwater tributaries. Pacific Lamprey have experienced declines in abundance and distribution throughout their native range, highlighting a need for further research on the species to better inform conservation...

The Cosmetic Stay-Green Trait in Snap Bean and the Event Cascade that Reduces Seed Germination and Emergence

Creator:: Cirak, Melike
Abstract:: The persistent color (pc) trait in snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) belongs to a member of the cosmetic stay-green gene family. It is considered very desirable by snap bean breeders for its impacts on pod quality. Persistent color imparts a uniform dark-green color to pods and expresses in seeds as...
