Chile trench : extensional rupture of oceanic crust and the influence of tectonics on sediment distribution

Creator:: Schweller, W. J. (William John)
Abstract:: Extensive new trackline coverage of the Chile Trench between 23°S and 34°S, including more than 60 bathymetric and seismic reflection profiles across the trench axis, allows a much more detailed study of the tectonics and sedimentation of this feature than previously possible. Sediment distribution along the axis shows a remarkable...

The response of Oregon shelf waters to wind fluctuations : differences and the transition between winter and summer

Creator:: Sobey, Edwin J. C., 1948-
Abstract:: The physical characteristics of continental shelf waters off Oregon during late winter and spring of 1975 are described and compared with observations taken previously during summer. The currents in winter are barotropic in the monthly means while in summer the currents are baroclinic. Alongshore current fluctuations on the time scale...

Compensating effects and gene action estimates for the components of grain yield in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum, L. em Thell)

Creator:: Abi-Antoun, Michel
Abstract:: Five winter wheat cultivars and their diallel crosses were evaluated for plant height, harvest index, deading-maturity duration, the components of yield, (spikes per plant, spikelets per spike, kernel weight and kernels per spikelet)and total plant yield. Two diverse locations, Moro, a dryland site (250 mm annually) located in central Oregon...

Numerical modeling of the hydrodynamics of gas fluidized beds

Creator:: Wang, Yusan
Abstract:: This research involves a numerical study of the hydrodynamics of gas fluidized beds. We use the continuum model, treating both gas and particles as interpenetrating continua. The motion of gas and particles is strongly coupled by the interactions between them. For simplicity, we only consider drag forces. We use MacCormack's...

Ecology and Distribution of Blue Whales in New Zealand Across Spatial and Temporal Scales

Creator:: Barlow, Dawn R.
Abstract:: The distribution of mobile marine predators often reflects underlying dynamic ecological processes. The geographical focus of this PhD is the South Taranaki Bight (STB) of New Zealand, where wind-driven coastal upwelling generates productivity and prey to support a blue whale foraging ground. The STB is also New Zealand’s most industrial...

Remote Sensing of Nearshore Hydrodynamic and Morphodynamic Processes

Creator:: O'Dea, Annika M.
Abstract:: The use of remote sensing techniques in coastal science and engineering has rapidly increased in the past few decades. This dissertation outlines new remote sensing tools using two remote sensing technologies (lidar and X-band marine radar) along with two nearshore hydrodynamic and morphodynamic analyses supported or motivated by these remote...

Effects of selenium and glutathione peroxidase on the biosynthesis of prostaglandin E₂ and F₂α by the ram vesicular gland

Creator:: Abdelgadir, Salaheldin Eltigani
Abstract:: This study was conducted to investigate the involvement of selenium and glutathione peroxidase in prostaglandin biosynthesis by the ram vesicular gland. Vesicular glands were collected from healthy intact rams covering a wide range of selenium nutrition and were analyzed for selenium concentrations, glutathione peroxidase activities and levels of prostaglandin E₂...
