  • Heat flow results from plate boundary observatory boreholes in California

    Creator:
    McDonald, Kyle Joseph
    Abstract:
    An integral component to understanding lithospheric rheology, fault mechanics, and geodynamic processes is knowledge of the subsurface thermal regime. This study presents thermal data from 26 new borehole sites drilled during the installation of borehole strain meters as part of the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO). These data extends existing coverage...

  • Digital simulation of a load-peaking generation station located in a tidal estuary

    Creator:
    Husband, James Harris
    Abstract:
    This simulation is a model for a tidal power-peaking plant that can be used to determine the electrical peaking generation for a given set of conditions. The simulation internally contains a tide producing function for a specific year, the hydraulic characteristics of the plant, and the plant's machines' characteristics. The...

  • Heat Flow from a Vapor-Dominated Sublacustrine Vent Field Beneath Yellowstone Lake

    Creator:
    Favorito, Julia E.
    Abstract:
    Portions of Yellowstone Lake sit on top of a vigorous but not well understood hydrothermal system situated in a region of intense geologic and environmental forcings. A heat flow study conducted over the Stevenson Island Vent Field (SIVF), a vent field at the bottom of Yellowstone Lake underlain by an...

  • A histochemical study of oogenesis in the sea urchin, Strogylocentrotus purpuratus

    Creator:
    Chatlynne, Louise Geller
    Abstract:
    Oögenesis in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus was studied by histological methods and by histochemical techniques for polysaccharides, lipids, and nucleic acids Urchins were collected at Yaquina Head, Oregon at regular intervals between April 1966 and March 1967. An attempt was made to correlate seasonal variations in the coastal water...

  • Fine structure and function of the neck organ in the brine shrimp Artemia salina nauplius

    Creator:
    Hootman, Seth R.
    Abstract:
    The morphology of the dorsal neck organ of the brine shrimp Artemia salina nauplius was investigated to determine its role(s) during larval development. Light and scanning electron microscopic studies show that the neck organ is present in the pre-nauplius larval forms as early as 12 hours after hydration of the...

  • Heat Flow along the Southern Costa Rica Margin : Insights on the Updip Limit of Seismicity

    Creator:
    Hass, Bridget M.
    Abstract:
    Heat flow analysis of the Costa Rica convergent margin is carried out for seven core sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expeditions 334 and 344 as part of the Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP). These expeditions were designed to develop a better understanding of erosional subduction zones. Heat...

  • Crustal heat flow and thermal modeling of the Hikurangi Trough, New Zealand

    Creator:
    Antriasian, Anson M.
    Abstract:
    Measuring surface heat flow at the Hikurangi Trough is key toward characterizing the local thermal regime and the influence of thermally sensitive processes such as fluid flow and slow slip. Marine heat flow data were collected during May– June 2015 in the northern Hikurangi Trough at sites seaward and landward...

  • Of stereotypes and strategies : emic perspectives of shopping in a television servicescape

    Creator:
    Harris, Mackenzie Moore
    Abstract:
    Culturally based stereotypes are a pervasive force behind quick judgments about behavior, intent, and beliefs which allow individuals to interact efficiently to meet their own goals. Gender stereotypes are present in marketing media and servicescapes, where they define the behavior, needs, and wants of shoppers. The literature on consumer behavior...

  • An ultrastructural study of early cleavage in Mytilus

    Creator:
    Elvin, Patricia J.
    Abstract:
    Ultrastructural analysis and chemical inhibition studies were carried out on first cleavage of Mytilus zygotes to determine possible relationships between the mitotic apparatus and the cortex during polar lobe formation. The stages of mitosis correlated with the appearance of the polar lobe were first determined by light microscopy. The polar...

  • Potential impacts of climate change on vegetation distributions, carbon stocks, and fire regimes in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Rogers, Brendan M.
    Abstract:
    The U.S Pacific Northwest contains a wide variety of ecosystems, all subject to relatively dry summers and wet winters. As has been shown with paleoclimatic and paleoecological data, the region is vulnerable to changes in climate. We assessed the sensitivities of vegetation distributions, carbon stocks, and fire regimes to 21st...
