  • Dissolved Organic Carbon Production and Flux from Long Term Litter Manipulations in a Pacific Northwest Old-Growth Forest

    Creator:
    Evans, Lucas R.
    Abstract:
    Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) flux is an important mechanism to convey soil carbon (C) from aboveground organic debris (litter) to deeper soil horizons and can influence the formation of stable soil organic carbon (SOC) compounds. Aboveground litter quantity and quality was manipulated for 20-years in an old-growth Douglas fir forest...

    Svoboda, Nicholas E.
    Abstract:
    Subtitles are an element used within film to further meaning and artistic subtext, intentional or not, within film. Using foreign language and the associated cultural artefacts, one may explore the subtext of that language and culture on screen. The language of Norwegian, the language used in the film, shares much...

  • Food Insecurity Among Oregon Food Bank Clientsover the Course of the Great Recession

    Creator:
    Schoblom, Arielle
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines food insecurity in Oregon among food bank users over the course of The Great Recession. Analyzing data from the Oregon Food Bank, this thesis tells the story of the change that the recession brought upon low-income families. In examining the regional differences in food insecurity, the local...

  • Data driven study of neutron response in Minerva using quasielastic neutrino scattering

    Creator:
    Peters, Evan
    Abstract:
    Understanding how particles behave in detectors is a critical part of analyzing data from neutrino experiments. There are methods in place to track charged particles in scintillator material, but neutral particles such as neutrons are more difficult to characterize. The purpose of this project was to assess and calibrate methods...

  • A Novel Elysium

    Creator:
    Anderson, Evan Crichton
    Abstract:
    As a metafictional work of science fiction literature, A Novel Elysium explores the timelessness of both the human mind and its literary surroundings, comparing the self-awareness of its characters to the sometimes tragic or empowering metaphysical realizations of human beings. Within this framework, any concrete place or time is unimportant;...

  • Analyzing the Effect of Peer Learning on Academic Success within Physics Education

    Creator:
    Dreyer, Gabriel
    Abstract:
    Objective: This study presents an in-depth review of the correlations between peer learning methods and Academic success for students within the Oregon State University introductory PH 20X physics series. This study also sought to determine how, if any, demographics impacted the relationship between these correlates, and if the course structure...

  • The Climate Change - Homelessness Nexus : how disaster response institutions reinforce structural vulnerability in wildfire-impacted communities in Oregon

    Creator:
    Werdel, Carly Inez
    Abstract:
    In communities impacted by climate disasters, institutions largely determine the distribution of outcomes within a population. This research aims to examine the role of institutions in differential outcomes for displaced communities impacted by the 2020 Labor Day Wildfires in the Santiam Canyon and the Rogue Valley. Using semi-structured interviews of...

  • Position-Dependent Codon Usage Bias in the Human Transcriptome

    Creator:
    Subramanian, Kaavya
    Abstract:
    All life depends on the reliable translation of RNA to protein according to complex interactions between translation machinery and RNA sequence features. While ribosomal occupancy and codon frequencies vary across coding regions, well-established metrics for computing coding potential of RNA do not capture such positional dependence. Here, we investigate position-dependent...

  • Personality and Binge Drinking: How Personality Risk Factors Affect the Prevalence and Timing of College Binge Drinking

    Creator:
    Lewis, Katherine A. G.
    Abstract:
    Through the use of daily online surveys, this study investigated the weekly trends associated with college binge drinking. It also investigated the relationship between personality risk factors and binge drinking. Personality risk factors were assessed using the TCI measures of novelty seeking and harm avoidance, and the ATQ measure of...

  • Classification and Analysis of Nucleotide - Nucleotide Interactions in RNA

    Creator:
    Rouches, Mason
    Abstract:
    Base-pairing interaction are the fundamental blocks of an RNA structure. With increased ability to determine the structure of RNA molecules, an accurate and informative way of classifying these interactions would help to study RNA structure at many levels. Apart from the well-known complementary base pairs and wobble pairs, other interactions...
