Patterns and Variation in Benthic Biodiversity in a Large Marine Ecosystem

Creator:: Piacenza, Susan E., Barner, Allison K., Benkwitt, Cassandra E., Boersma, Kate S., Cerny-Chipman, Elizabeth B., Ingeman, Kurt E., Kindinger, Tye L., Lee, Jonathan D., Lindsley, Amy J., Reimer, Jessica N., Rowe, Jennifer C., Shen, Chenchen, Thompson, Kevin A., Thurman, Lindsey L., and Heppell, Selina S.
Abstract:: While there is a persistent inverse relationship between latitude and species diversity across many taxa and ecosystems, deviations from this norm offer an opportunity to understand the conditions that contribute to large-scale diversity patterns. Marine systems, in particular, provide such an opportunity, as marine diversity does not always follow a...

Experimental thermodynamic first and second law analysis of a variable output 1-4.5 kWe, ICE-driven, natural-gas fueled micro-CHP generator

Creator:: Taie, Zachary and Hagen, Christopher
Abstract:: This work experimentally assesses the thermodynamic performance of the only single kWe, variable-output continuous duty, internal combustion engine driven, residential micro-combined heat and power (mCHP generator (Marathon Engine Systems ecopower) available in the United States. The system underwent steady state testing over its full operating range, and first (energy) and...

Tree thinning and fire affect ectomycorrhizal fungal communities and enzyme activities

Creator:: Rasmussen, Ann L., Brewer, J. Stephen, Jackson, Colin R., and Hoeksema, Jason D.
Abstract:: Common ecological restoration treatments such as thinning trees and prescribed burning could result in changes to soil fungal communities and changes to the function of those communities. Ectomycorrhizal fungi are especially likely to be affected as they are symbionts on plant roots and exhibit host and niche preferences. Ectomycorrhizal fungi...

Estrous Cycle Manipulation in Dogs

Creator:: Kutzler, Michelle Anne
Abstract:: Since 1939, scientists have studied estrous cycle manipulation in dogs resulting in more articles published in this field than any other area of canine reproduction. Estrous cycle manipulation in dogs must be safe and reliable. Dopamine agonists, gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists, and gonadotropins are hormones that have been used for estrus...

Chemical Solution Deposition and in-situ Structural Characterization of Pb-free, Bi-based, Piezoelectric Thin Films

Creator:: Fox, Austin J.
Abstract:: This work explores the electric field induced strain mechanisms in environmentally benign Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (BNT) based piezoelectric thin films. Although BNT-based materials show promise as replacements for toxic Pb-based piezoelectrics, the displacement mechanisms are not consistent between thin films and bulk materials, and the differences have yet to be well understood....

The Effects of Toxicity Inhibitors on the Cytotoxicity of Cryoprotective Agents using a High-Throughput Experimental Set-up

Creator:: Ampo, Emi
Abstract:: Even with advanced medical technology, there is still an unmet need for organs to reduce the transplant waiting list and to advance organ-related research. Cryopreservation through vitrification is one possible solution to increase organ availability. A major challenge with cryopreservation of organs is the toxicity of the cryoprotectants (CPAs) that...

A quantitative wildfire risk assessment using a modular approach of geostatistical clustering and regionally distinct valuations of assets—A case study in Oregon

Creator:: Schmidt, Andres, Leavell, Daniel, Punches, John, Rocha Ibarra, Marco A., Kagan, James S., Creutzburg, Megan, McCune, Myrica, Salwasser, Janine, Walter, Cara, and Berger, Carrie
Abstract:: The intensity and scale of wildfires has increased throughout the Pacific Northwest in recent decades, especially within the last decade, destroying vast amounts of valuable resources and assets. This trend is predicted to remain or even magnify due climate change, growing population, increased housing density. Furthermore, the associated stress of...

Distance Estimation in Virtual Reality

Creator:: Alexander, Jonathan M.
Abstract:: Distance estimation is a key process for movement and spatial cognition. However, this process is hindered when navigating virtual environments in virtual reality (VR) due to the movement being exclusively visually simulated. In order to contribute to the understanding of how this hinderance effects our ability to estimate distances in...

Organic Pelletized Chicken Manure Application Rates and Effects on Novel Asian Vegetables in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Velazquez, Hannah D.
Abstract:: Daikon, mizuna, mizspoona, and komatsuna are novel Asian vegetables for which a market exists in Oregon, especially in the organic sector. However, these crops are currently not grown widely in the area, despite the favorable growing environment of Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Little is known about the appropriate application level of...

On Avoiding Power-Seeking by Artificial Intelligence

Creator:: Turner, Alexander M.
Abstract:: We do not know how to align a very intelligent AI agent's behavior with human interests. I investigate whether—absent a full solution to this AI alignment problem—we can build smart {\ai} agents which have limited impact on the world, and which do not autonomously seek power. In this thesis, I...

Cupric Oxide (CuO) Oxidation Detects Pyrogenic Carbon in Burnt Organic Matter and Soils

Creator:: Hatten, Jeff and Goñi, Miguel
Abstract:: Wildfire greatly impacts the composition and quantity of organic carbon stocks within watersheds. Most methods used to measure the contributions of fire altered organic carbon–i.e. pyrogenic organic carbon (Py-OC) in natural samples are designed to quantify specific fractions such as black carbon or polyaromatic hydrocarbons. In contrast, the CuO oxidation...
