Artificial means of distinguishing smooth-line map unit boundaries : an examination of Oregon soil survey maps

Creator:: Sun, Yulin
Abstract:: Soil is a complex living system with high heterogeneity, which makes locating soil map boundaries a challenge. In traditional soil survey, the placement of soil map boundaries relies largely (at least initially) on identifying the soil-forming factors of biota and topographic relief through stereo aerial photo pairs. Future soil survey...

Soil Solarization in Pacific Northwest Tree Seedling Nurseries: Effects on Soilborne Plant Pathogens, Soil Nutrients and the Soil Microbiome

Creator:: Weidman, Clara S.
Abstract:: Nursery and greenhouse products are economically important agricultural commodities for Oregon and Washington. Nursery crops including tree seedlings can be damaged or killed by soilborne plant pathogens, which can be challenging to manage because of their persistence in soil and limited options for control. Soil solarization is a pre-planting soil...

Entre crítica e imaginación: El contexto de las relaciones de México y Estados Unidos desde la perspectiva de La frontera de cristal y Gringo viejo

Creator:: Hansen, Tobin M.
Abstract:: What historical and political reality is reflected in the novels Gringo viejo and La frontera de cristal? What is revealed when the characters, plot, and setting of the novels are analyzed against research of the context of U.S.-Mexico relations? We begin to explore these questions by studying three periods crucial...

Optimizing Placement of Weather Stations: Defining and Testing a Meaningful Objective for Multi-Variable Weather Monitoring Networks

Creator:: Snyder, Amelia M.
Abstract:: As the number of weather stations declines globally, ensuring that meteorological monitoring networks efficiently and effectively monitor weather variables becomes increasingly important. Multi-variable weather sensors are becoming more widely available and make monitoring weather phenomena more economical. However, when seeking an optimal spatial distribution of these stations, choosing an objective...

Evaluating preconditioning options for the Jacobian-Free Newton Krylov Method applied to radiative transfer with matter coupling

Creator:: Myers, Nicholas T.
Abstract:: The objective of this thesis was to investigate the use of the Jacobian Free Newton Krylov Method (JFNK) with physics based preconditioning for solving coupled radiative transport and material energy balance. Modeling of these physics is important in inertial confinement fusion and other high energy density systems. In this thesis,...

Ancient Greek agricultural soils of the Venella River Valley, Metaponto, Italy : An exploratory analysis

Creator:: Carpenter, Burl L.
Abstract:: Approximately 2700 years ago, Greek settlers from the Northwestern Peloponnese region of Achaea emigrated to the central coast of Southern Italy along the Gulf of Taranto. The city they founded, Metapontum, served as an important center for Magna Graecia, the lands on the Southern Italic peninsula wholly populated by Hellenic...

The Occurrence of Coastal Sea Ice Leads and their Impact on the Beaufort Gyre

Creator:: Lewis, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: Leads are long fractures wide enough for a ship to travel through the ice pack. Sea ice acts as a barrier between the ocean and the atmosphere, whereas leads allow the transfer of heat and moisture between the two. Leads play a role for marine mammals and are hunting grounds...

Effects of strip versus continuous grazing management on diet parameters and performance of yearling steers grazing native flood meadow vegetation in eastern Oregon

Creator:: Blount, David Kenneth
Abstract:: A trial was conducted May 1 to September 4, 1989 at the Eastern Oregon Agricultural Research Center (EOARC) Burns, OR to examine the effects of strip or continuous grazing management on the diet and performance of steers grazing native flood meadows. The objective was to determine if strip grazing would...

Utilizing Non-Saccharomyces Yeast As Bio-Protectants During Pre-Fermentation Cold Soaking Under Different Conditions

Creator:: Nichols, Melanie L.
Abstract:: Cold soaking is a technique used during red winemaking to alter the aroma, flavor, and phenolic content of a wine. However, cold soaking does not come without risk, as this process can result in the production of spoilage compounds such as acetic acid and ethyl acetate if excessive growth of...

Efficacy of electrolyzed oxidizing water and ozonated water for microbialdecontamination of fresh strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa)

Creator:: Udompijitkul, Pathima
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to evaluate the efficacies of electrolyzed oxidizing (EO) and ozonated waters as antimicrobial agents for enhancing the microbiological safety of fresh strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa). The influence of sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations used for preparing EO water was evaluated on their bactericidal activities against...
