Managing our urban forest : what do officials and managers think and need? A case study from the Portland-Vancouver metropolitan area

Creator:: Driscoll, Abbey N.
Abstract:: Urban forests are fundamental to the health and sustainability of urban communities. In 2012, the U.S. Forest Service launched the Vibrant Cities, Urban Forests: A National Call to Action initiative which posed a variety of recommendations to advance urban forest management and programs throughout the country. In response to that...

Benchmarked simulation of antineutrino source terms for light water reactors during normal operation and diversion scenarios

Creator:: Somasundaram, Elanchezhian
Abstract:: Detection of reactor antineutrinos for non-proliferation applications has been researched extensively across the globe and is considered as a potential technology to remotely monitor reactor operations without any intrusions to reactor components. Reactor antineutrino detection experiments have been conducted in the past and have proven successful in detecting the changes...

Conservation of Rorippa columbiae : an evaluation of reintroduction potential through the study of germination ecology, propagation methods, and habitat requirements

Creator:: Kentnesse, Laura E.
Abstract:: Rare plant reintroductions are a critical conservation tool for the augmentation of diminishing populations, or re-establishment of extirpated populations. Analysis of reintroduction failures suggests that a sophisticated understanding of species biology, ecology, and habitat is essential for producing self-sustaining rare plant populations. This study sought to generate that background knowledge...

Mitigation Banks in Washington State: Case Study of Developing the Schold Farm Mitigation Bank

Creator:: Dadisman, Jennifer
Abstract:: Wetland habitats are disappearing at an alarming rate and research is finding that establishment and creation of wetland habitat is generally unsuccessful. Typical mitigation strategies in the past have created multiple small isolated wetlands with little functioning habitat. Within Washington State, guidance and research recommends utilizing mitigation banks to compensate...

A Morphometric Examination of Lithic Artifacts from the Pilcher Creek Site(35UN147) using GliMR : GIS-based Lithic Morphometric Research

Creator:: Curteman, Alexander J.
Abstract:: There is currently a revolution in archaeological morphometric research. As advances in technology are making more in-depth analyses both time and cost efficient. In this work, a collection of artifacts from the Pilcher Creek site (35UN147) in eastern Oregon was digitized using high resolution three-dimensional scanning. These scans were then...

Experimental reintroduction of northern wormwood (Artemisia campestris var. wormskioldii), a rare species of dynamic cobble bar environments on the Columbia River

Creator:: Brickner, Alexis H.
Abstract:: Rare plant reintroductions that result in additional or more viable wild populations are important conservation tools for maintaining biodiverse ecosystems. Ideally, such projects are best designed as experiments, to improve biological and ecological knowledge of the selected species and monitoring long-term results. Northern wormwood (Artemisia campestris var. wormskioldii: Asteraceae), a...

Water Efficiency for Urban Landscapes in Semi-Arid Environments

Creator:: Martinson, Richard W.
Abstract:: Urban landscape water use is increasingly a focus of water conservation efforts. This is especially true in the arid and semi-arid regions of the western United States where increased demand, environmental concerns, and extended periods of drought have created chronic water shortages. However, until recently, little attention has been paid...

Modeling the Environmental Protection Agency's level IV ecoregions within the Klamath Mountains of southern Oregon and northern California

Creator:: Zanger, Christopher
Abstract:: Ecoregions are regions of relative homogeneity with respect to specific ecosystem variables (Bailey 1976; Omernik 1995). There has been an increasing awareness that effective management of environmental resources must be undertaken with an ecosystem perspective (Omernik, 1995). Ecoregions serve as a spatial framework for assessing, managing, and monitoring ecosystems that...

Performance of Oregon derived malolactic bacteria : studies on storage stability and their use in the wine industry

Creator:: Micheals, Nancy J.
Abstract:: Commercial vats of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir were inoculated during yeast fermentation with starter cultures containing 10⁷ - 10⁹ cfu/ml of the malolactic bacteria Leuconostoc oenos Erla and Ey2d in lots ranging from 55 to 4,000 gallons. Chardonnay inoculated with Ey2d completed MLF in an average of 56 days at...

Distributed OpenCL : a platform for distributed, heterogeneous computing for domain scientists

Creator:: Dillon, William H.
Abstract:: It is possible to purchase, for as little as $10,000, a cluster of computers with the capability to rival the supercomputers of only a few years ago. Now, users that have little to no experience developing distributed applications or managing a cluster are in a position to do so. To...
