Creator:: Zhang, Jinlun, Ashjian, Carin, Campbell, Robert, Spitz, Yvette H., Steele, Michael, and Hill, Victoria
Abstract:: A coupled biophysical model is used to examine the impact of changes in sea ice and snow cover and nutrient availability on the formation of massive under-ice phytoplankton blooms (MUPBs) in the Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean over the period 1988–2013. The model is able to reproduce the basic...

Seeing the Ocean For the Whales: How Whales Get Lost in the Sea of Human Perceptions

Creator:: McKinnon, Haley
Abstract:: Humans have always been fascinated with whales; from prominent features in mythology, to stories of terrifying monsters on the high seas, to globalized utility, to symbolic wildness and radical environmentalism, to figures and statistics, how have human relationships with whales been understood throughout time? Because humans have a need to...

The Viability of Container-Based Sanitation as a Tool for Sanitation Coverage in Urban Haiti

Creator:: VanRiper, Froggi Ramona
Abstract:: Haiti is far from achieving the UN goal of sanitation access for all; 20% Haitians have no sanitation access, and less than 0.1% of urban excreta is safely managed. Container-Based Sanitation (CBS) may be a key tool for achieving equitable sanitation coverage in Haiti’s cities. CBS is a sanitation strategy...

Transcendence: May Time Take These Bones, They Are Not Mine - A Poetry Collection

Creator:: Bayly, Alice M.
Abstract:: In ethnographic research, an anthropologist becomes integrated in the community of their study. Throughout this process, the anthropologist adapts to the cultural practices and the language of this community, becoming intimately connected to them. Ethnography communicates, through the anthropologist’s experience, crucial practices, tensions, and values discovered during research. However, it...

Response of Conifer-Encroached Shrublands in the Great Basin to Prescribed Fire and Mechanical Treatments

Creator:: Miller, Richard F., Ratchford, Jaime, Roundy, Bruce A., Tausch, Robin J., Hulet, April, and Chambers, Jeanne
Abstract:: In response to the recent expansion of piñon and juniper woodlands into sagebrush-steppe communities in the northern Great Basin region, numerous conifer-removal projects have been implemented, primarily to release understory vegetation at sites having a wide range of environmental conditions. Responses to these treatments have varied from successful restoration of...

Assessing the feasibility of a sea otter reintroduction to Oregon through a coupled natural-human lens

Creator:: Curran, Lorne S., Kone, Dominique V., and Wickizer, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: Sea otters fulfill a keystone role in several Northeastern Pacific nearshore ecosystems. However, their influence has been absent in Oregon coastal waters since their extirpation in the 19th and early 20th century. Interest has been growing for a translocation attempt to reintroduce sea otters to Oregon from one or more...

Creator:: Jacob, Tabeel A. and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: This article investigates the in-tube, superheated, saturated, and subcooled condensation of zeotropic refrigerant mixture R454C. R454C is proposed to replace R404A for commercial refrigeration applications. Quasi-local heat transfer coefficients were measured in a 4.7 mm horizontal tube at mass fluxes ranging from 100 to 500 kg m−2 s−1 at three different saturation...

Dielectric Engineering Boosts the Efficiency of Carbon Nanotube Photodiodes

Creator:: Senger, Mitchell J., Kefayati, Ali, Bertoni, Andrea, Perebeinos, Vasili, and Minot, Ethan D.
Abstract:: Carbon nanotube (CNT) photodiodes are a promising system for high-efficiency photocurrent generation due to the strong Coulomb interactions that can drive carrier multiplication. If the Coulomb interactions are too strong, however, exciton formation can hamper photocurrent generation. Here, we explore, experimentally and theoretically, the effect of the environmental dielectric constant...

Experimental investigation of supercritical carbon dioxide in horizontal microchannels with non-uniform heat flux boundary conditions

Creator:: Jajja, Saad A., Zada, Kyle R., and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: Supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) experiences a drastic change in its thermophysical properties near the thermodynamic critical point. A non-linear thermophysical property variation can influence the heat transfer behavior of sCO2 which is not predicted well by conventional single phase heat transfer theory. This can become a major hindrance in the...
