Building conceptions and repairing misconceptions in student understanding of kinematic graphs : using student discourse in calculator based laboratories

Creator:: Hale, Patricia L.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate teaching models that may aid in improving student's understanding of how to interpret graphs of kinematic variables. The teaching models that were considered incorporated the use of cooperative groups and calculator-based laboratory instruments, alone and in concert. The subjects used in this...

Sea-air CO₂ flux variability on the northeast Pacific continental margin

Creator:: Evans, Wiley
Abstract:: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) fluxes between the ocean and atmosphere on continental margins are difficult to diagnose because these regions experience large variability over spatial and temporal scales spanning meters to basins and hours to years, respectively. In a global sense, continental margins could represent a significant atmospheric CO₂ sink, equivalent...

Dynamics of organic matter production and degradation during coastal diatom blooms

Creator:: Wetz, Michael S.
Abstract:: Experiments were designed to answer key questions about diatom-derived organic matter cycling (i.e., production and degradation) in coastal systems. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) production was examined in axenic batch cultures of five diatom species. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) release rates varied between species, but were significantly higher for all species...

High-frequency measurements of total CO₂ : Method development and first oceanographic observations

Creator:: Bandstra, Leah M.
Abstract:: As concern grows about the long-term effects of increasing atmospheric CO₂ concentrations, it becomes increasingly important to understand the cycling of carbon on Earth, particularly in the dynamic marine reservoir. Gas exchange and relatively rapid ocean mixing times mean that the oceans play a significant role in determining the atmospheric...

Analysis of the 1960 and 1961 Oregon State University clothing construction placement test

Creator:: Hale, Myrna Beth
Abstract:: The analysis of the most recent revision of the Clothing Construction Placement Test battery was undertaken for the purpose of evaluating the worth of the three parts of the test in placing students in the accelerated and regular sections of Clothing Construction, CT 210, and in determining exemptions from the...

Secrets of the North Staffordshire ceramic recipes : identifying chemical variation and uniformity using an archaeometric approach

Creator:: Hale, Jessica A.
Abstract:: The present thesis chemically examined 174 industrial North Staffordshire pottery fragments from an archaeological context, using Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA). In an integrated effort to combine an archaeometric approach with archival research and traditional analysis methods, the purpose of the thesis was to link industrial pottery manufacturers recipes to...

Autonomous in situ measurements of estuarine surface PCO₂ : instrument development and initial estuarine observations

Creator:: Wall, Colleen McKay
Abstract:: A novel, low-cost instrument capable of measuring surface water PCO₂ was designed for use in dynamic, shallow-water environments. The instrument was tested in the Yaquina River Estuary, a macrotidal estuary known to experience a wide range of conditions ranging from dominance by the coastal ocean during summer upwelling to substantial...

An investigation of qualities predictive of future counselor effectiveness

Creator:: Brown, Brian Hale
Abstract:: Nature of the Phenomenon The primary purpose of this investigation was to determine if the predisposition of counselor candidates on selected factors found to be associated with effective counseling, upon entering a counselor education program, was predictive of effective counselors at the end of that program. Hypotheses Two central hypotheses...

Characterizing grapevine canopy architecture

Creator:: Navarrete, Alejandra
Abstract:: Vertically shoot positioned (VSP) training systems are common in Oregon's Willamette Valley, where deep fertile soils and high regional precipitation task growers with curbing vegetative vigor within this system. Management strategies, such as canopy hedging and cluster-zone leaf removal, are used to improve microclimate within the canopy and around the...

Factors limiting the distribution of the sensitive lichen Usnea longissima in the Oregon Coast Range : habitat or dispersal?

Creator:: Keon, Dylan B.
Abstract:: The sensitive lichen Usnea longissima Ach., formerly a fairly common circumboreal species, has been extirpated from much of its range (e.g., Eastern Europe). Although the U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW) remains a relative stronghold for the species, U longissima faces increasing pressure in the region from habitat loss, air pollution, and...
