Beyond oil : Managing hazardous material spills in Puget Sound

Creator:: Heimowitz, P. J. (Paul J.)
Abstract:: Past disasters such as mercury poisoning in Minimata, and new problems such as tributyltin impacts on shellfish have maintained public concern about problems caused by chronic discharges of hazardous materials into marine waters (Clark, 1986; U.S. Congress, 1987). However, hazardous chemical spills in coastal waters typically escape public attention. Unlike...

Policy Shifting at the Federal Reserve Bank: A Punctuated-Equilibrium Perspective

Creator:: Campbell, Michael
Abstract:: A considerable amount of research and literature exists that attempt to explain the policymaking processes of central banks and, in particular, the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB). As with those studies, the purpose of this study is to explain FRB policymaking in order to understand FRB policy shifts during financial crises....

Changing federal county payments and rural Oregon counties: analysis of policy impacts and responses from loss of secure rural schools funding in selected Oregon counties

Creator:: Gaid, Dawn Marie
Abstract:: Changes in federal forest management, enactment of environmental policies, recessions and a shift to a global economy dramatically impacted counties between the 1980s and 1990s. In the 1990s, counties began experiencing a shift away from traditional natural resource extraction activities – amidst changing demographics resulting from rural restructuring taking place...

Using Weather to Explain Variation in State-level Food Insecurity: A Panel Data Approach

Creator:: Chatfield, Kristin
Abstract:: Most research on U.S. hunger and food insecurity is at the household level, where it occurs. Because policy to address food insecurity is created and implemented at the national and state level, hunger research at the state level provides important contextual information. By including weather data with state level economic...

Heuristic search in symbolic probability inference

Creator:: Pan, Yonghong
Abstract:: I present a new heuristic search approach to compute approximate answers for the probability query in belief nets. This approach can compute the 'best' bounds for a query in a period of any given time (if time permitted, it will get an exact value). It inherits the essence of Symbolic...

The Social Construction of the Metallic Mining Industry: The Divergent Cases of the Mining Moratorium Bill (Wisconsin) and the Permit Streamlining Bill (Minnesota)

Creator:: Harewood, Alessandra G and Harewood, Alessandra G.
Abstract:: Hardrock mining is associated with severe environmental and economic costs. Of particular concern is acid mine drainage which has contaminated several thousand kilometers of streams across the United States representing a formidable danger to watershed health. Given the high risks of this activity, ensuring high regulatory standards may be an...

Implementation of molecular collection theory

Creator:: Srinivasan, Vijay
Abstract:: Hayes, in his Naive Physics Manifesto, identified two alternate ontologies for reasoning about liquids, an ontology based on the notion of a contained substance and one based on the notion of a molecular collection. Qualitative Process theory, proposed by Forbus, lends itself easily to encoding the contained substance ontology. It...
