Optimizing Reservoir Operations to Adapt to 21st Century Expectations of Climate and Social Change in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Moore, Kathleen M.
Abstract:: Reservoir systems in the western US are managed to serve two main competing purposes: to reduce flooding during the winter and spring, and to provide water supply for multiple uses during the summer. Because the storage capacity of a reservoir cannot be used for both flood damage reduction and water...

Mixed-Severity Fire Effects on Biological Legacies and Vegetation Response in Pseudotsuga Forests of Western Oregon's Central Cascades, USA

Creator:: Dunn, Christopher J.
Abstract:: Mixed-severity fire occurrence is increasingly recognized in Pseudotsuga forests of the Pacific Northwest, but questions remain about how tree mortality varies, and forest structure is altered, across the disturbance gradient observed in these fires. Therefore, we sampled live and dead biological legacies at 45 one ha plots, with four 0.10...

Time-Dependent Crack Growth Mechanisms in Alloy 617 at 800°C in Air

Creator:: Addison, Dylan, A.
Abstract:: Time-dependent crack growth mechanisms in Alloy 617 at 800°C in air were studied using compact tension samples machined in the L-T direction, cracked at temperature using an induction furnace and servo-hydraulic load frame. The application of different loading waveforms, including triangular, hold time, and sustained loading, were studied with relation...

Predicting the impacts on residential property values from changes in water quality

Creator:: Doverspike, Mark Steven
Abstract:: Eutrophication is the accelerated aging process of a lake which generally decreases the water quality in terms of aesthetic and recreational uses. At Liberty Lake, near Spokane, Washington, eutrophication has become a problem. Many individuals and agencies are interested in the benefits that occur when the lake's water quality has...

A proposed framework for increasing the accessibility of systems thinking intervention approaches for non-systems thinking practitioners

Creator:: Solberg, Thomas Roe
Abstract:: Meta-methodologies have been created to assist systems thinking practitioners in selecting applicable intervention approaches for different system states; however, current meta-methodologies do not address the lack of accessibility for non-systems thinking practitioners. To address this problem, the key system states that contribute the most to reduce the variety gap between...

The Effects of Prostaglandin F2α on Reproductive Performance in the Postpartum Dairy Cow and the Mechanism Behind its Benefits

Creator:: Younger, Kathryn Genevieve
Abstract:: During the beginning of the postpartum period, 80 to 100% of lactating dairy cows have bacterial contamination within their uteri. Presence of uterine bacteria may contribute to increased number of days open and services per conception within these cows. Expulsion of uterine contamination is crucial for uterine involution and reproductive...

Habitat relationships of native and non-native fishes of the Willamette River, Oregon

Creator:: Williams, Joshua E.
Abstract:: The Willamette River flows north between the Cascade Mountains and Coast Range of western Oregon within a 29,728-km² basin. The fish community in the geologically young basin consists of 36 native species, but introductions of non-native fishes have added 33 additional species for a total of 69 fish species. During...
