Pressurizer surge line Counter Current Flow Limitation during AP600 Mode 5 Cold Shutdown

Creator:: Colpo, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Counter Current Flow Limitation (CCFL) was observed in the pressurizer surge line of the Oregon State University APEX facility during test NRC-10. This test simulated a one-inch diameter cold leg break with a failure of three of four of the fourth-stage Automatic Depressurization System (ADS) valves. The result was a...

Transcriptome profiling of Nitrosomonas europaea grown singly and in co-culture with Nitrobacter winogradskyi

Creator:: Pérez, José
Abstract:: In most environments, ammonia (NH₃) is oxidized to nitrate (NO₃⁻) via the intermediate nitrite (NO₂⁻). This is a microbe-driven process involving phylogenetically distinct types of microorganisms, namely, ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and Thaumarchaea (AOA), and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). Nitrosomonas europaea and Nitrobacter winogradskyi are the best studied AOB and NOB, respectively,...

Distribution of anchoveta (Engraulis ringens Jenyns) in northern Chile in relation to selected oceanographic conditions

Creator:: Canon, Jose Raul
Abstract:: The present work is an attempt to correlate information collected in the northern part of Chile with the anchoveta distribution and its fluctuation. This information was collected over a three year period (November 1967 to November 1970) by the Instituto de Fomento Pesquero, Chile (IFOP). The first and second part...

Nutrient management of blackberry cultivars grown in organic production systems

Creator:: Fernandez-Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The impact of fertilizer source and cultivar on growth, fruit quality, and yield was evaluated in organic blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson) from 2011-2013 in three studies. In all studies, plants were drip irrigated, and weeds were managed using a woven polypropylene, permeable landscape fabric (weed mat). At a...

Techno-economic analysis of algal lipid fuels

Creator:: Xiang, Xuwen
Abstract:: A techno-economic analysis (TEA) was performed to evaluate the technology, cost, and resource use for algal biofuel production based on today’s economics and technology. The basic goal of this study is to develop a model to calculate the mass and energy balances and costs to produce 10 million gal of...

Leveraging multi-sensor time series datasets to map short- and long-term forest disturbances and drivers of change in the Colombian Andes

Creator:: Murillo Sandoval, Paulo Jose
Abstract:: The spatial distribution of forest disturbance is commonly calculated using a satellite imagery-driven bi- or tri-temporal change analysis. Working in Colombia’s Cordillera de los Picachos National Natural Park – a region of consistent cloud cover and dramatic topographic relief – a change assessment with such infrequent observations cannot capture long-term...

The benefits of diversified agricultural systems among Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize

Creator:: Hofbauer, Derek M.
Abstract:: Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize face socio-economic hardships, persisting environmental constraints, and an unfavorable political climate that has prevented land tenure stability on reservation lands. This thesis describes the agricultural practices of a group of Mopan farmers and examines farm-site diversification and its relationship to ecological knowledge, out-migration, agricultural...

Fingerprinting and genetic stability of Rubus using molecular markers

Creator:: Castillo, Nina Rosa F.
Abstract:: Two studies used DNA markers to assess their usefulness in germplasm identification and evaluation of genetic stability in four cryopreserved Rubus accessions that were stored for over 10 years in liquid nitrogen. In the first study, 12 robust Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers were developed from two microsatellite-enriched libraries of...

Composition of flavonoid phenolic polymers isolated from red wine during maceration and significance of flavan-3-ols in foods pertaining to biological activity

Creator:: Aron, Patricia M.
Abstract:: Representing the most common flavonoid consumed in the American diet, the flavanols and their polymeric condensation products, the proanthocyanidins, are regarded as functional ingredients in various beverages, whole and processed foods, herbal remedies and supplements. Their presence in food affects food quality parameters including astringency, bitterness, sourness, sweetness, salivary viscosity,...
