Winning through Compromise? An Examination of Bipartisanship and Electability

Creator:: Ellingson-Cosenza, Elena J.
Abstract:: In America’s polarized politics, the language that congresspeople use matters. This thesis examines the use of bipartisan communications—in tweets and press releases—of members of the US House of Representatives as an electoral strategy for representatives in districts of varying competitiveness. A linear regression was conducted to analyze the relationship between...

Out Here: A Short Film about Outdoor School in Oregon

Creator:: Nguyen, Vy T.
Abstract:: In this thesis, I created a short film to immerse and connect, or reconnect, Oregonians to Outdoor School and its impact on youth. Outdoor School (ODS) is an experiential outdoor education program for 5th and 6th graders, that recently became funded statewide in Oregon through voters’ approval of Measure 99....

Old McDonald had a Microscope: The Impact of Research Spending on U.S. Agricultural Productivity

Creator:: Rietmann, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The United States is a global leader in agricultural productivity. Much of its productivity growth can be attributed to public investments in agricultural research and development, starting in the 19th century and continuing until today. Past studies have shown high returns to agricultural research investments, but publicly funded agricultural research...

Genomic Resources for Phylogenetics, Species Delimitation, and Geographic Localization of Neotropical Tree Species Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae)

Creator:: Finch, Kristen N.
Abstract:: Biodiversity loss is of global concern, and is due in part to deforestation and high consumer demand for wood and wood products. The neotropical tree species Cedrela odorata (“Spanish cedar” or “cedro”) is economically valuable for its wood and faces threats of overexploitation. Due to strong similarities in wood features...

Subcultures of Significance: Urbanity-Rurality, Tightness-Looseness, and Risk Perception

Creator:: Frydenlund, Nicole T. L.
Abstract:: Tightness-looseness (TL) is a cultural construct that measures the level of social norms present in a community, and the level of scrutiny of deviance from these norms. This construct offers a unique foundation for investigating how norms influence behavioral processes. Research in TL is relatively young, creating a frontier of...

Learning to Teach Science from a Contextualized Stance

Creator:: L’Heureux, K., Giamellaro, M., Beaudry, M-C., Buxton, C., Ayotte-Beaudet, J-P., and Alajmi, T.
Abstract:: Contextualization is a curricular approach and a learning process in which science content knowledge is intentionally situated within a context where that knowledge can be authentically applied or observed. Many recent science education reforms include contextualization as a central tenet. Our goal in this review was to examine commonalities across...

Embedded Reachability for Autonomous Racecar

Creator:: Jewell, Nathaniel C.
Abstract:: Reachability analysis enables the safety assurance of control systems despite uncertain initial conditions and control inputs, and can be an important component to run on-board an autonomous system. This thesis explores the characteristics of reachability analysis with different algorithmic configurations and runtime parameters running onboard the F1Tenth 1/10th-scale autonomous racing...

Physiological characterization of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Amphidinium carterae

Creator:: Tornberg, Emma C.
Abstract:: Marine primary production can be modeled and estimated using remotely-observable physiological signatures such as chlorophyll and carbon. Current models are based on strict physiological relationships based on photoautotrophic phytoplankton, and discrepancies between modeled and in situ data may stem from unaccounted-for physiological deviations from photoautotrophy. Mixotrophic phytoplankton can obtain energy...

Looking for Fish of the Right Age : Developing Predictive Modeling for Submerged Sites Using GIS, Salmon Genetics, and the Human Ecology of Salmon

Creator:: Krier, Jon C.
Abstract:: A major challenge to the study of the peopling of the Americas is that much of the Bering Land Bridge (Beringia), the geographic area that people migrating from Northeast Asia into North America would presumably have passed through, is now submerged due to sea-level rise since the last glacial maximum....

Development of Two-Color Laser Induced Fluorescence Fluid Temperature Imaging for Free Convection Heat Transfer Applications

Creator:: McAfee, Rachel C.
Abstract:: The development of a continuous and reliable cooling method for computer chips is an evolving subject requiring continuous research in both computer science and thermal management. Two-dye laser induced fluorescence (LIF) provides a minimally invasive way to investigate electronics cooling fluid behavior. Dielectric fluids are of particular interest as they...
