Potential effects of the invasive grass Ventenata dubia on elk habitat selection within the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range

Creator:: Crum, Keren-happuch R.
Abstract:: The invasive annual grass ventenata (Ventenata dubia) has become an increasing problem within western rangelands. Forage quality of areas infested with ventenata is reduced as its high silica content makes it unpalatable to livestock and wildlife. In the following study, I examined whether significant presence of ventenata affects habitat use...

Stella Bridge : mathematical modeling with OSU

Creator:: Liao, Chingpin
Abstract:: Stella Bridge is a program for converting mathematical models designed with STELLA For Business into object-based source programs written in Pascal. The input to Stella Bridge is a series of tables1 functions, and initial conditions generated by STELLA For Business. The output from Stella Bridge is a collection of Pascal...

Programming simulations using object-oriented languages with examples in C++

Creator:: Lupiya, Grant
Abstract:: In this project we examine the features of object oriented programming languages that make them most likely languages of choice for implementing simulations. Three simulations of a bank, hospital, and livestock farm scenarios were implemented in the language C++ in order to demonstrate how Object-Oriented languages are used in constructing...

U.S. Forest Service wilderness management: problems and management methods of four wilderness areas in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Werner, Ann Claire
Abstract:: Increasing wilderness use, and the uneven distribution of use within wilderness areas, have contributed to management problems. Problems associated with some heavily visited areas are in conflict with the intent of the Wilderness Act of 1964. One of the constraints hindering optimal management has been the decentralized nature of the...

Fishermen in Ocean Observing Research

Creator:: Holmes, Susan
Abstract:: Recent observational programs to understand the coastal ocean, like the Oregon Coastal Ocean Observing System (OrCOOS) are under development (www.orcoos.org). A challenge in facing observing systems is achieving spatial and temporal coverage at scales that are useful for ocean modeling. Observational buoys are relatively few and towed arrays and gliders...

Limb Loss as an Indicator of Biotic Resistance Against the European Green Crab (Carcinus maenas) in Coos Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Sims, Kimberly
Abstract:: The presence of predators and competitors can offer biotic resistance against the establishment of non-native species, including the European green crab, Carcinus maenas, (EGC) in the estuary of Coos Bay, Oregon. It has been suggested that limb loss, or autotomy of the EGC will increase in areas that include populations...

Connections between science and business to increase environmentally-friendly food production

Creator:: Rieder, Rebekka M.
Abstract:: This study represents an internship, as a requirement of the Professional Science Masters program at Oregon State University, performed with Western Ag Innovations Inc. The study consisted of two aspects -- one business and one science oriented. The two objectives of this internship were to: 1) qualitatively evaluate how two...

Towards a sustainable future : a global empirical analysis on the diffusion & innovation of carbon pricing policies

Creator:: Raghoo, Pravesh
Abstract:: There are currently 43 countries which have adopted some kind of carbon pricing policy – either adopted a carbon tax or entered a cap–and–trade, while the remaining countries have not. This has created significant diversity in the world with regard to climate change mitigation. There is thus a need to...

Investigating a new business model for Pacific Northwest seafood micro-canners

Creator:: Wisdom, Robbie
Abstract:: Coastal communities in the Pacific Northwest are looking for ways to increase the diversity of their economies in order to reduce the negative impacts of cyclic economic swings. The economic base of many coastal communities is directly tied to healthy, dynamic working waterfronts through fishing, recreation, tourism, ports, and allied...
