  • Dynamic pollution regulation with endogenous technological change

    Creator:
    Jaspin, Michael D
    Abstract:
    This thesis investigates the dynamic efficiency of emission standards and Pigouvian taxes in the regulation of pollution where research and development (R&D) and the technology level are endogenous. A key element of the analysis is a comparison of the efficiency between instances in which the regulator can and cannot commnit...

    Burke, Adam O.
    Abstract:
    Lodgepole pine (Pinus conorta) is a widely distributed forest type across western North America. Central Oregon lodgepole pine forests are ecologically unique when compared to other lodgepole pine ecosystems. Sierra lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta ssp. murrayana) is the dominant variety and often exists as the climax species on pumice soils,...

  • Classification strategies for unbalanced binary maps : finding Ponderosa pine in the Willamette Valley

    Creator:
    Riddell, Audrey P.
    Abstract:
    Forest species classifications are becoming increasingly automated as advances are made in machine learning. The algorithms used to identify tree species range from simple decision trees to intricate neural networks, and often excel in accurately delineating tree species. However, complex algorithms can have high input costs, including the cost of...
