Investigation of Glacier Dynamics During the Last Glacial Maximum at Tioga Pass, Yosemite National Park

Creator:: Laub, Alexander G.
Abstract:: Previous investigations of glacier dynamics at Tioga Pass during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) have produced different conclusions. A map of the LGM ice extent and flow direction (Alpha et al., 1987) illustrates a south-to-north direction of ice flow across the pass with little evidence to support this inference. Since...

Tabletop fusion reactors : construction and testing of a demonstration inertial electrostatic confinement fusor

Creator:: Holler, Logan R.
Abstract:: Nuclear fusion reactors comprise a significant field of study due to their potential to provide a limitless, clean, and sustainable source of energy. The inertial electrostatic confinement fusor is a type of fusion-generating device that accelerates deuterium gas to the conditions required for fusion. The goal of this research was...

Moral Disagreement and Moral Genealogy : Two Sources of Empirically-Based Epistemological Challenges to Robust Realism

Creator:: Pho, Alexander
Abstract:: I defend robust realism from arguments that raise epistemological challenges to it based on considerations about either moral disagreement or the genealogy of our moral beliefs. The first argument is the “Argument from Conciliationism,” which contends that the moral disagreements that obtain between moral peers give us reason to believe...

Optimizing Cancer Drug Treatment Models Using Process Dynamics

Creator:: Jones, Alexander R.
Abstract:: Cancer is currently the second leading cause of death in the United States and the sixth leading cause of death worldwide. Due to cancer’s variability in type, location, growth rates, and patient physiology, treatment models are based off of previous experimental and clinical work. This variability, however, can lead to...

Automated Trunk Diameter Measurement

Creator:: Sankari, Pico
Abstract:: This thesis describes an automated method to estimate tree trunk width in a commer-cial apple orchard. Trunk cross sectional area, which is an important consideration with regards to nutrient uptake, is a feature being integrated in a decision support system for precision Nitrogen management. The data used to generate the...

Evaluation of ECOSTRESS products for estimation of leaf and grape water stress for Southern Oregon vineyards

Creator:: Swafford Steffensen, Collen
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of water stress in vineyards could prove vital for optimizing irrigation and grape quality in a changing climate. The ECOsystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on the Space Station (ECOSTRESS) offers potential to remotely sense vineyard water stress but lacks validation against in-field measurements in vineyards. In this study,...

Environmental DNA reveals cryptic parasite species and gives insight into their fish hosts

Creator:: Phillips, Kyle
Abstract:: Ceratonova shasta is a myxozoan fish parasite that impacts hatchery and wild populations of salmon and trout in the Pacific Northwest. Levels of the parasite in river water can be effectively monitored through direct filtration of parasite spores from water, extraction of total "environmental DNA" (eDNA), then quantitative polymerase chain...

Assessing Annelid Habitat Suitability in the Lower Klamath River Basin

Creator:: Corrigan, Rory
Abstract:: This study assessed suitability of annelid habitats under current baseflow conditions and evaluated the mobility of suitable annelid substrates under a 2-year peak flushing flow. Outputs from a 2020 Bureau of Reclamation SRH-2D model were combined with field measurements of annelid presence/absence and habitat variables including depth, velocity and d50,...
