E+A galaxy and spiral E+A galaxy candidates in the Hercules supercluster

Creator:: Williams, Rosemary H.
Abstract:: E+A galaxies represent an important niche in galaxy evolution as a subset of post-starburst galaxies. Set apart from other post-starburst galaxies by their rapid quenching of star formation, E+As are thought to have started their formation outside a galaxy cluster's center and have fallen inward due to gravity; the star...

The Mathematics of Critical Shifts in Ecological Networks with Alternative Stable State Theory, A Potential Framework for Early Warning Indicators

Creator:: Kupperman, Michael D.
Abstract:: A long running problem in mathematical biology is the prediction of extinction events, a specialized case of the larger global stability problem found in differential equations and dynamical systems theory. A central technical question is how to introduce the randomness observed in real ecological systems not accounted for in deterministic...

A Vector–Host Model for Coinfection by Barley/Cereal Yellow Dwarf Viruses

Creator:: Leung, Margaret-Rose W.
Abstract:: Barley and cereal yellow dwarf viruses (B/CYDV) are a suite of aphid-vectored pathogens that affect diverse host communities, including economically important crops. Coinfection of a single host by multiple strains of B/CYDV can result in elevated virulence, incidence, and transmission rates. We develop a model for a single host, two...

A magnetotelluric investiagation of shallow conductivity sources beneath the Cascadia Volcanic Arc

Creator:: Bonner, L. Roy, IV
Abstract:: The Cascade Volcanic Arc has been the subject of extensive study in the past due to its active volcanism and its proximity to metropolitan areas. The triangle formed by the volcanoes Mount Saint Helens, Mount Rainier, and Mount Adams is of particular interest because of this potential danger and the...

The Usefulness of Stable Water Isotopes in Improving Drought Prediction

Creator:: Adams, Logan
Abstract:: Drought represents an import part of natural hydrologic cycles that govern the rate and transportation of water on global and regional scales. (Trenberth, et al. 2015) Agriculturally, drought represents a threat to crop production and can endanger political and economic stability through the loss of resources and the threat of...

A Geochemical Model for the Petrogenesis of the Curaçao Lava Formation: Implications for the Origin of the Caribbean Plateau

Creator:: Krawl, Kyle A.
Abstract:: The Curaçao Lava Formation (CLF) records the magmatic and tectonic processes that formed the Caribbean Large Igneous Province (CLIP). A model of the petrogenesis of the CLF was developed using new geochemical and geochronological data. These data include major element compositions obtained using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF), trace element concentrations...

Estimating basal glacier conditions using internal layer slopes

Creator:: Carroll, Georgia
Abstract:: Ice-penetrating radar produces detailed images of the internal ice layers in a glacier. Because the layers form from each year's snowfall, the curving of the internal layers is a record of the climate conditions that the glacier experienced as it flowed throughout the millennia. The Hiawatha Glacier lies on top...

Describing Tsunami Inundation and Debris Motion using Optical Measurement Methods in a Large-Scale Wave Basin

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew Robert
Abstract:: This thesis consists of two papers in manuscript format. The first paper presents optical measurements of tsunami inundation through an urban waterfront in a laboratory wave basin. The physical model was constructed at 1:50 scale and was an idealization of the town of Seaside, Oregon. The paper presents an analysis...

Comparison of Experimentally-determined and Model-estimated Attachment Efficiency for Predicting Nanoparticle Aggregation

Creator:: Kennard, Jasmin J.
Abstract:: The widespread use of engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) in industrial applications and consumer products makes their release to the environment inevitable. Understanding the aggregation behavior of ENPs is crucial to understanding their fate, transport and toxicology in aquatic systems. This study investigated the comparability of experimentally-determined and model-estimated attachment efficiencies for...

Improving the accuracy and efficiency of bird song analysis with machine learning based event detection

Creator:: Mathew, Anju
Abstract:: Ornithology is an exciting field with novel research emerging everyday. Researchers in bioacoustics often spend hours within the wilderness recording bird calls to analyze later in their lab. The burden of sifting through hours of audio recordings from the field continues to remain a time-consuming and manual task, despite the...
