Environmental limitation mapping of potential biomass resources across the conterminous United States

Creator:: Daly, Christopher, Halbleib, Michael D., Hannaway, David B., and Eaton, Laurence M.
Abstract:: Several crops have recently been identified as potential dedicated bioenergy feedstocks for the production of power, fuels, and bioproducts. Despite being identified as early as the 1980s, no systematic work has been undertaken to characterize the spatial distribution of their long-term production potentials in the United states. Such information is...

Multivariate Vegetation Mapping -- Code and Data

Creator:: Henderson, Emilie B.
Abstract:: This data set contains RCode designed for mapping correlated vegetation summary variables via univariate (modified random forest regression) and multivariate (random forest nearest neighbor) methods. It also contains a small vegetation plot dataset to illustrate the type of information needed to support such an analysis.

Simulating dynein’s powerstroke using Brownian dynamics

Creator:: Capek, Elliott L.
Abstract:: Dynein is a motor protein which transports cargo along tracks inside the cell. Like related motor proteins kinesin and myosin, dynein uses cellular energy to take steps with its two foot domains. Unlike kinesin or myosin, dynein’s stepping pattern is highly varied: it can take steps between zero and 60nm...

Survey of isotope ratios in the near coastal outflow of the Columbia River

Creator:: Dolan-Caret, Amari
Abstract:: This report details ocean water salinity and stable isotope measurements (deuterium (D) and 18O) in water collected from April 17 2018 to April 21 2018 in the coastal waters of Oregon, USA. Measurements were made from surface, ship flow-through, and CTD rosette bottle samples collected as part of a student-led...

A Generalized Scheme for Creating Regge Calculus Models of General Relativity

Creator:: Hanson, Ben R.
Abstract:: Solutions to Einstein's equations are usually found by considering ideal, simplified models. However, if the real world always matched ideal physics models, then farmers would milk black and white spheres. To combat this, Regge calculus was developed as a numerical approximation scheme for general relativity. In Regge calculus curved manifolds...

Drunken Walking: A Novel Brownian Dynamics Simulation for the Mechanochemical Cycle of the Dynein Motor Protein

Creator:: Waczak, John L.
Abstract:: The dynein molecule is a peculiar motor protein recognized for its unique stepping behavior. Sometimes it steps forwards. Other times it steps backwards. It has even been observed to occasionally shuffle by beginning a step with the same domain many times in row. These motions make dynein an interesting object...

Effects of Facial Tattoos on Perceptions of Facial Trustworthiness

Creator:: Landrus, Bryn E.
Abstract:: Background: Individuals rapidly infer character traits and behaviors through the process of facial perception. Perceptions of trustworthiness, accurate or not, completed by authorities in the criminal justice system may have implications for individuals suspected of crimes, including harsher or longer sentencing decisions. Objective: The present study concerned how the presence...

Pillaging Bloodwood: An Exploratory Examination of Illegal Deforestation in Guinea-Bissau Through Forest Disturbance Algorithms and Unsupervised Clustering Techniques

Creator:: Walters, Alexander E.
Abstract:: Environmental crime around the world, such as trafficking in illegal timber, is directly related to political instability. Traffickers exploit weak, fragile, and chaotic political circumstances to illegally extract high-value commodities, challenging the extent to which conservation goals are achievable in resource rich developing countries. Rosewood is the largest traded endangered...

An Analysis of Driver's Visual Attention When Exposed to Roadside Drone Operations

Creator:: Sova, Alden
Abstract:: Drones are being used increasingly in the transportation sector for roadside applications such as surveying, structural inspection, and traffic monitoring, which raises distraction concerns for drivers. This study examines the visual attention of a group of Oregon drivers to determine drones’ potential as distracting roadside elements. Eye tracking data was...

Northern spotted owl reproductive rates (version 3)

Creator:: Rockweit, Jeremy T., Jenkins, Julianna M. A., Hines, James E., Nichols, James D., Dugger, Katie M., Franklin, Alan B., Carlson, Peter C., Kendall, William L., Lesmeister, Damon B., McCafferty, Christopher, Ackers, Steven H., Andrews, L.

David, Wise, Heather, and Yackulic, Charles B.
Abstract:: These datasets were used in the prospective meta-analysis of northern spotted owl reproductive rates over 25 years across 11 study areas located throughout the range of the owl. A multi-state occupancy file was created by collapsing site-specific information on owl reproductive status into bimonthly (2 per month) survey occasions. These...
