  • Black Mirror and The Twilight Zone: How Television Gives a Window into the Fears of American Society

    Creator:
    Santisteven, Alyssa
    Abstract:
    Black Mirror and The Twilight Zone have each left their mark on popular culture. Charlie Brooker and Rod Serling created television shows with macabre and imaginative concepts and brought them to the small screen. “This is like something straight out of The Twilight Zone!” has become a common phrase since...

  • A Tool for Estimating the Health Benefits from Outdoor Recreation in Oregon

    Creator:
    Dunn, Tara E.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this project is to modify the Transportation Options Health Impact Estimator (TO Estimator) tool to quantify the health impacts of outdoor recreation in Oregon. The TO Estimator tool uses the Integrated Transportation and Health Impact Model (ITHIM) to quantitatively estimate the hypothetical health impacts of transportation mode...

  • Examining Wildlife Interactions with Large Wood In Streams

    Creator:
    Trevarrow, Ezmie R.
    Abstract:
    It is well known that in-stream large wood affects river channel shape, sediment deposits, stream flow, and available habitat for aquatic species. However, less is known about how wildlife interact with this large wood. Previous research has shown that small mammals and birds utilize woody debris in river channels for...

  • Imagining the Future into Reality: An Interdisciplinary Exploration of The Jetsons

    Creator:
    Myrick, Jane E.
    Abstract:
    This investigation examines The Jetsons’ vision of the future and tracks to what extent the content of the show is relevant to the modern era, both technologically and socially. Much of the dazzling technology in the show feels familiar, and most of it is either already available or is in...

  • 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...

  • Corrugation Instabilities Across Shock Fronts in Magnetohydrodynamical Astrophysical Systems

    Creator:
    Mullins, Austin Charles
    Abstract:
    Slow magnetosonic shock fronts are unstable to changes made to their shape, a phenomenon known as corrugation instability. The computational models studied considers a system where plasma travels across a shock front. Using the code Linogen, the corrugation instability of a shock front can be theoretically modeled. The results show...

  • Analysis of Radio Signals for New Pulsar Detection

    Creator:
    Downing, Jaden
    Abstract:
    The North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) times periodic signals from pulsars as a method of detecting gravitational waves. NANOGrav detects waves emitted in the nanohertz frequency range, a range lower than those previously explored by other organizations. This allows for the study of rarely observed sources such...

  • The Relationship Between CEO Childhood Socioeconomic Status and Their Leadership Through the Pandemic

    Creator:
    Strenk, Jess
    Abstract:
    In this paper, I examine the relationship between CEO childhood socioeconomic status and the adjustments made to company policies throughout the pandemic. My hypothesis is that the CEOs who come from a low income socioeconomic status will enact less labor friendly policies as a result of their formation of occupational...

  • Heart Disease Knowledge, Awareness, and Perceived Risk in Oregon State University Students

    Creator:
    Hirsch, Lindsay N.
    Abstract:
    Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death for both men and women in the U.S. but is often thought of as a man’s disease. Women with CVD, however, suffer poorer health outcomes due to previous education of stereotypically “male” signs and symptoms of heart attacks, despite the fact...

  • Abiotic and biotic predictors of coastal giant salamander (Dicamptodon tenebrosus) in headwaters of the Oregon Coast Range

    Creator:
    Neal, Nathaniel G.
    Abstract:
    From British Columbia to northern California, coastal giant salamanders (Dicamptodon tenebrosus) are a dominant vertebrate predator in headwater streams. Though widespread, salamander health and abundance levels differ greatly between locations, provoking the question as to what factors may influence this variation and whether habitat features or biotic variables play a...
