Land Use Impacts on Water Quality in Oak Creek Watershed

Creator:: Johnson, Keira R.
Abstract:: Understanding the relationships between land use, water quality, and groundwater is crucial for ecological, economic, and water management decisions. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the land use activities and hydrologic processes influencing the water quality of Oak Creek watershed. Objectives of this study were: 1) to...

Freezing a Softly Repulsive Fluid : Monte Carlo Methods and the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen Potential

Creator:: May, Christopher
Abstract:: The equation of state for a fluid described by the Weeks-Chandler-Andersen (WCA) potential was solved to determine at what pressures and temperatures the fluid will theoretically freeze. A Monte Carlo (MC) algorithm was used to sample a system of 256 spheres for a set of thermodynamic averages to locate and...

Simulating the Dynein Motor Protein: A Monte Carlo Approach to Achieve Coordinated Stepping

Creator:: Kiatvongcharoen, Jin
Abstract:: The motor protein dynein is responsible for cellular processes such as axonal transport and cell division by delivering vital information along the microtubule track. A failed delivery can cause severe damage to the cell’s functionality and lead to neurological diseases. Despite dynein’s rich history in cellular research, the mechanism of...

The Evolution of Software Entropy in Open Source projects: An Empirical Study

Creator:: Mannan, Umme Ayda
Abstract:: Software entropy impacts the overall quality of software systems. High entropy hinders developers from understanding the purpose of a piece of code and can cause developers to make sub-optimal changes and introduce bugs. Researchers have used entropy scores to measure the naturalness of code. However, thus far, no one has...

The Dynamics of Random Pulse-Coupled Oscillator Networks

Creator:: Kadhim, Kyra L.
Abstract:: The pulse-coupled oscillator model is widely used to simulate the dynamics of neural systems. For networks with particular internal (Mirollo-Strogatz) dynamics, I will define three broad patterns of collective behaviors found in literature in terms of inter-spike interval (ISI) statistics. These patterns are i) temporally-regular, characterized by all oscillators in...

Local and General Above-Ground Biomass Functions for Pinus palustris Trees

Creator:: Gonzalez-Benecke, Carlos A., Zhao, Dehai, Samuelson, Lisa J., Martin, Timothy A., Leduc, Daniel J., and Jack, Steven B.
Abstract:: There is an increasing interest in estimating biomass for longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.), an important tree species in the southeastern U.S. Most of the individual-tree allometric models available for the species are local, relying on stem diameter outside bark at breast height (DBH) and total tree height (HT), but...

Ingestion of Microplastics in the Juvenile Black Rockfish (Sebastes melanops) from Oregon Coastal Sampling Sites

Creator:: Arnold, Madison A.
Abstract:: Microplastics (<5mm) are a ubiquitous environmental pollutant that have the potential to cause significant harm in many fish species. Therefore, understanding the quantities at which they are being consumed by living organisms is crucial for characterizing risk. There are currently gaps in the microplastic literature regarding microplastic data from finfish...

Error Propagation in Sap Flow Measurements Using the Heat Ratio Method

Creator:: Miller, Jackson T.
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of the amount of water used by trees is important for a variety of agricultural applications. There are several current methodologies for measuring sap flow and water use in trees, however the heat ratio method has been identified as the ideal due to its ability to measure low...

Alsea Watershed Study 1959-1972

Creator:: Souder, Jon
Abstract:: To investigate the effects of logging, three small watersheds in the Alsea River basin on the west slope of the Oregon Coast Range were selected for study. This was an interdisciplinary investigation to evaluate the influence of specific logging methods on stream regimen and on aquatic resources. The study plan...

Sensitivity of Evapotranspiration Components in Remote Sensing-Based Models

Creator:: Talsma, Carl J., Good, Stephen P., Miralles, Diego G., Fisher, Joshua B., Martens, Brecht, Jimenez, Carlos, and Purdy, Adam J.
Abstract:: Accurately estimating evapotranspiration (ET) at large spatial scales is essential to our understanding of land-atmosphere coupling and the surface balance of water and energy. Comparisons between remote sensing-based ET models are difficult due to diversity in model formulation, parametrization and data requirements. The constituent components of ET have been shown...
