A community-based approach for evaluating tradeoffs across marine ecosystem services in Oregon

Creator:: Freeman, Peter M.
Abstract:: As competing uses of our coastlines increase, natural resource agencies are employing marine spatial planning (MSP) to designate areas for different uses or activities in order to reduce conflicts while achieving ecological, economic and social objectives. A central challenge of implementing MSP is development of a rigorous approach for analyzing...

Improved viewshed modelling for estimating effects of neighboring land uses on property values

Creator:: Gjesdahl, Jacob E.
Abstract:: The effect of land uses on neighboring property values is of critical interest to urban planners, developers, and citizens. Property values are in part defined by built structure and lot characteristics, locational attributes (e.g., proximity to amenities and disamenities), and other features such as views from a property. The effects...

Post-fire recreation management in the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness

Creator:: Brown, Ryan N. K.
Abstract:: Natural events such as wildfires, floods, and storms can significantly alter the short-term structure and functioning of natural systems. Recreation in wilderness areas is one instance in which individuals are directly exposed to post-disturbance landscapes. Consequently, public land managers may be faced with a different set of challenges stemming from...

Beliefs and attitudes influence willingness to pay recreation fees at an urban forest : incorporating attitudes in contingent valuation methods

Creator:: Moehrke, Caitlin
Abstract:: The current thesis presents contingent valuation research incorporating social psychological measures that investigates recreationists' willingness to pay recreation access fees at McDonald-Dunn Forest, Oregon. Context is provided through an extensive literature review of recreation fee management, issues and concerns related to recreation fees, recreationists' attitudes toward fees, relevant social psychological...

Lactic streptococci : the use of defined strains and bacteriophage-insensitive mutants in commercial manufacture of cheddar and cottage cheeses

Creator:: Thunell, Randall Kirk
Abstract:: Phage-insensitive Streptococcus cremoris starter strains were selected by assaying cheese whey against potential starter strains. Six strains were selected and characterized for continual use in cheesemaking. Upon phage-infection, strains were removed from the blend. Cheesemaking continued with remaining strains. A phage-insensitive, fast-acid-producing mutant of the infected strain was isolated and...

Boating in Alaska's Prince William Sound : modeling and assessment of recreational use

Creator:: Wolfe, Phillip E.
Abstract:: This study measures the recreational boating use in Prince William Sound, Alaska. Improved access conditions to the Sound over the last decade coupled with a statewide increase in outdoor recreation participation among both resident and out of state tourists have made the Sound a focal point for recreational boating in...

Long cables under steady ocean loads with coupled tension/torsion

Creator:: Simpson, Randall C.
Abstract:: Cables used in the ocean are often constructed of helically wound wires or strands. Tension in the cable induces torque and/or rotation about its longitudinal axis. A method is presented to determine the tension, torque, location and angular orientation of points on the cable centerline, using a shooting method algorithm...

Spatial heterogeneity, meta-analysis and spatial dependence : three essays on environmental valuation and spatial land management decisions

Creator:: Bu, Meidan
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of three essays that collectively address the importance of accounting for spatial heterogeneity and spatial dependence of environmental assets and natural resources in policy making. The first essay examines the value of different wetland ecosystem services using an expanded meta-dataset of valuation studies in North America. The...
