Neptune Wave Power, LLC (‘NWP’), worked with OWET, the Northwest National Marine Renewable
Energy Center (‘NNMREC’) and Oregon State University (O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory) to
build and test a 1/10 scale model wave energy conversion (‘WEC’) device. This model is based upon
NWP patented technology and was the latest...
We report on user conflicts at six Hawaiian beaches, and compare the extent to which evaluations of coastal recreation conflicts differ among groups. This information can be used to help understand current recreation users at coastal sites in Hawaii. Exploratory factor analyses supported a multidimensional interpersonal conflict factor based on...
In July and August 1961, nine lots of 500 juvenile silver salmon each were subjected to one-, two-, three- and four-week periods of complete starvation. The three- and four-week periods produced the best growth checks for that time of year, but were generally of inferior quality to those produced in...
Low temperature atomic layer deposition (ALD) of monolayer to few layer MoS₂ uniformly across 150mm diameter SiO₂/Si and quartz substrates is demonstrated. Purge separated cycles of MoCl5 and H₂S precursors are used at reactor temperatures of up to 475 °C. Raman scattering studies show clearly the in-plane (E¹₂g) and out-of-plane...
Rapid hydropower development is occurring in China's Yunnan province in response to increasing clean energy demands, exposing potential vulnerabilities of the area's ecosystems, communities, and geopolitical systems. Here, we present original data on the cultures, economics, hydro-politics, and environments of the Nu River basin, based on household surveys, analysis of...
