Descriptive analysis of two consecutive vintages of Oregon Pinot noir wines as effected by irrigation, tillage and nitrogen supplementation in the vineyard

Creator:: Hjorth, Heather Byrne
Abstract:: Two vintages of Vitis vinifera cv. Pinot noir wine from a viticulture trial evaluating nitrogen fertilization, tilling and irrigation underwent descriptive analysis using a modified version of free-choice profiling. Wines were made from three field blocks of the twelve factorial combinations of Irrigation (Dry or Irrigated), Tillage (Tilled or not...

Retrospective thermal neutron fluence determination using lithium-ion mobile telephone batteries

Creator:: Dorrell, Nick J.
Abstract:: Fortuitous dosimeters are radiosensitive objects carried by an individual who was exposed to radiation. These objects can be analyzed some time after exposure and the results can be used to aid in calculating radiation fields and doses received by individuals. Items that make good fortuitous dosimeters are those that are...

Seasonal variations in tidal dynamics, water quality and sediments in the Alsea Estuary

Creator:: McKenzie, David Roller
Abstract:: During 1973 data was collected to analyze the seasonal variations of the tidal dynamics, water quality and sediments of the Alsea Estuary. A summary of historical information with a list of all known alterations to the estuary was made. A complete physical description, including the geographical setting and mixing classification...

Assessing Post-fire Tree and Understory Vegetation Response to a Mixed-severity Fire Gradient in the Klamath Mts., Oregon, USA

Creator:: Terzioglu, Cihat
Abstract:: Severe wildfires are increasing in the western United States, impacting vegetation structure, and in turn, forest regeneration conditions. These wildfires are also raising a substantial amount of scientific and management concern regarding the resilience of forested ecosystems, or the ability of the ecosystem to return to a pre-fire condition. This...

Exploring perceptions and experiences of the U.S. West Coast shellfish industry dealing with ocean acidification

Creator:: Mabardy, Rebecca Anne
Abstract:: Nearshore and estuarine environments along the U.S West Coast are ocean acidification (OA) "hotspots". Carbon dioxide-enriched water has been correlated with production losses of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae at hatcheries in the Pacific Northwest. Limited and unreliable supply of larval seed has implications for the economic well-being of commercial...

Coastal sand dunes in the U.S. Pacific Northwest : regional variability in foredune geomorphology and associated physical vulnerability to hazards

Creator:: Mull, Jeremy M.
Abstract:: Coastal foredunes protect lives, infrastructure, and ecosystems during severe winter storms. In the U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW), coastal foredune geomorphology is determined by both physical and ecological mechanisms. Before the 1900's, the native plant Elymus mollis was the dominant dune grass and dune morphology was largely determined by sediment supply...

Aquatic Ecology in Coastal Riverscapes : Characterizing Fish Assemblages and Stream Chemistry over Time

Creator:: Feiten, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Recreational and Commercial fisheries and the quality of aquatic habitats in which the fish live are an important part of the livelihoods and economy of the Oregon Coast. The composition of important juvenile fish assemblages in estuaries can bring a unique view into the needs of different species on a...

Floating Offshore Wind Array Systems Optimization off the US West Coast using an Extended Pattern Search Algorithm

Creator:: Forinash, Caitlin P.
Abstract:: The large wind resource off the United States West Coast has the potential to generate wind power for millions of homes, yet the high cost of energy for offshore wind power compared to traditional sources has slowed the development of offshore wind farms in the US. The four studies presented...

American marten distributions over a 28 year period : relationships with landscape change in Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest, California, USA

Creator:: Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: The distribution of American martens (Martes americana) within Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest (SCEF), Tahoe National Forest, California has been periodically documented from 1980–1993. This area has been the location of nine marten surveys, each involving a systematic detection/nondetection survey on the same grid. These data are an unprecedented time series...

The Emergent Qualities of Diversity in Free and Open Source Software Communities: A Critical Review and Theoretical Discussion

Creator:: Kuechler, J. Victor
Abstract:: Free and open source software (FOSS) projects primarily rely on the efforts of volunteer contributors from around the world. For this reason, recruiting and retaining contributor is vital to the sustainability and growth of FOSS projects. This notion became the jumping-off point for this three-part investigation into the cultural structure...
