First principles studies of optical, electronic and mechanical properties of organic molecules and solids

Creator:: Barras, Faye Lyn
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results of quantum-mechanical first principles calculations of optical, electronic and mechanical properties of organic molecules and solids, which have diverse potential applications such as photovoltaics, flexible electronics, and mechanical catalysts with applications in force sensors and self-healing materials. The electronic and optoelectronic properties of organic thin...

Water scarcity and reservoir reliability in basins affected by climate and land use change : impacts of hydrogeology, sensitivities, and uncertainties in the Santiam River Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Mateus, M. Cristina
Abstract:: Multipurpose management of hydrosystems face a number of uncertainties related to hydrologic variability and nonstationarity. Anticipated air temperature increases in the Pacific Northwest region are projected to alter the timing and quantity of streamflow associated with precipitation shifting from snow to rain, including shorter winter runoff periods, earlier spring runoff,...

Advancing Spatial Data Engineering and Analysis: Integrative Approaches with GIS, Statistical Modelling, and Deep Learning

Creator:: Krivova, Maria
Abstract:: Geospatial data analysis is a multifaceted discipline encompassing the collection, processing, and visualization of diverse datasets. It models and delineates the interactions of people, objects, and phenomena within geographical spaces and predicts patterns based on the relationships between different locations. Despite significant advancements in geospatial data engineering and analytics over...

Metabolism of one carbon (C1) and methylated compounds in SAR11 bacteria

Creator:: Sun, Jing
Abstract:: SAR11 Alphaproteobacteria are the most abundant aerobic chemoheterotrophs in ocean surface waters. Previous studies have indicated SAR11 cells play an important role in marine carbon cycling and consume up to half of some common dissolved organic compounds, such as amino acids. During sequencing of the first SAR11 genome, genes for...

Leveraging the Power of Institutional Agents for Students of Color : Understanding the Factors Which Influence Engagement at Community Colleges

Creator:: Hernandez Chapar, Judith W.
Abstract:: Student engagement with faculty is positively associated with increases in the retention and graduation rates of students enrolled in institutions of higher education. Although a considerable amount of research has focused on understanding the engagement experiences of students enrolled at four-year colleges and universities, little emphasis has been placed on...

Scaffold reactivity and large scale Synthesis of organocatalyzed Yamada-Otani Condensation product and investigation of the synthesis and properties of axially chiral 8,8'-biquinolyls and 8-(naphtha-1-yl)quinolines

Creator:: Banerjee, Somdev
Abstract:: In Part I, (4S,5R)-4,5-dimethyl-4-phenylcyclohex-2-enone (19a) was prepared in 73% yield with high enantio- and diastereo-selectivity (er > 98:2, dr > 20:1) on a multigram scale by a Yamada-Otani condensation between (E)-pent-3-en-2-one and 2-phenylpropanal catalyzed by a sulfonimide derivative of (S)-proline (18, HuaCat®). Synthetically useful transformations of the cyclohexenone product 19a...

Tempo and Mode of Lineage and Morphological Diversification in a Hyperdiverse Freshwater Fish Radiation (Teleostei : Characiformes)

Creator:: Burns, Michael D.
Abstract:: Characiform fishes form one of the most diverse freshwater fish clades in the world. Comprising more than 2000 species and distributed primarily in South America and Africa, characiforms vary dramatically in their ecomorphology. However, the evolutionary processes responsible for the immense ecomorphological diversity remains unknown. Recently, a study postulated that...

It Depends: Defining Cooperation and Evaluating Effectiveness in Transboundary Waters

Creator:: McCracken, Melissa J.
Abstract:: With the increasing international focus on transboundary cooperation as a part of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Framework, there is global recognition of transboundary water cooperation as a tool for improved governance and management of transboundary surface and groundwaters. Yet, there is not an agreed upon definition of transboundary water...

Non-viral Vectors for Ocular Gene Delivery

Creator:: Herrera-Barerra, Marco, F.
Abstract:: Nucleic acid therapeutics has cemented itself as one of the most efficacious and robust avenues for treatment of a wide range of diseases from vaccine development to treatment of liver, retina, cancer applications. Non-viral mediated gene delivery using lipid-based nanoparticle (LNP) carriers has proven its compatibility with addressing unexpected, fast...

Quantum and Classical Simulation of Electronic Transport at the Nanoscale

Creator:: Gruss, Daniel S.
Abstract:: Time-dependent electronic transport is increasingly important to the state-of-the-art device design and fabrication. The development of nanoscale sensing, the harnessing and control of structural fluctuations, and the advancement of next-generation materials all require a treatment of quantum dynamics beyond the level of traditional methods and a more nuanced approach to...
