Accumulation of dietary polychlorinated biphenyl by rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)

Creator:: Lieb, Andrew James
Abstract:: This study was conducted to investigate the accumulation of dietary polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB's) by a Mt. Shasta strain of rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). A commercial mixture of PCB's (Aroclor 1254) was added to the diet at a level of 15 ppm on a dry weight basis. Accumulation of PCB's was...

Managing the spatial configuration of land : the economics of land use and habitat fragmentation

Creator:: Lewis, David James
Abstract:: Habitat fragmentation has been widely studied in the biological literature and is considered a primary threat to biodiversity. However, there has been little research on land-use policies to reduce fragmentation. This dissertation focuses on two major research issues related to fragmentation policies. First, I develop an analytical model to analyze...

Satellite infrared measurement of sea surface temperature : empirically evaluating the thin approximation

Creator:: Kowalski, Andrew S.
Abstract:: Satellite technology represents the only technique for measuring sea surface temperatures (SSTs) on a global scale. SSTs are important as boundary conditions for climate and atmospheric boundary layer models which attempt to describe phenomena of all scales, ranging from local forecasts to predictions of global warming. Historical use of infrared...

Petroleum refinery residuals : a recycling feasibility study

Creator:: Hoffman, Andrew J.
Abstract:: Large quantities of unused heavy oil and residual waste products from the petroleum refining industry were deposited in on-site landfills, pits, and lagoons, prior to the promulgation of regulations governing their disposal and technology development that would further utilize and/or recycle these materials. Contacting petroleum products with sulfuric acid for...

Production relationships for the Oregon commercial fishing fleet

Creator:: Richardson, James Andrew
Abstract:: Fishing firms in Oregon operate in a complex and dynamic physical, biological and institutional environment. Within this environment, managers of these firms will attempt to maximize some objective function which may include profit. This maximization is dependent upon the level of output, or the levels of inputs. Given a relationship...

Modeling and optimization of the dilute-sulfuric acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic

Creator:: Esteghlalian, Alireza
Abstract:: Environmental concerns about urban air quality, global climate change, energy security and economic considerations motivate a growing interest in alternative fuels for the transportation sector. Ethanol, a fermentation-derived fuel, can be produced by bioconversion of renewable materials, such as wood, grass, and waste. Combustion of ethanol fuel, in both neat...

Acari, insecta and nematoda of watershed 10, H. J. Andrews experimental forest

Creator:: Krantz, G. W., Wernz, J. G., Jensen, Harold J. (Harold James), 1921-, Shimabukaro, R., U.S. International Biological Program. Coniferous Forest Biome, and University of Washington
Abstract:: Populations of mites and.nematodes were monitored on Watershed 10, H. J. Andrews Forest. A minimum of 50 families and 60 genera of mites are present, the majority being Cryptostgmata. Population estimates vary from 5000-350,000 per square meter. Nine categories of nematodes are present, most belonging to the saprozoic, dorylaimoid, aquatic...
