Estimating volume and value on standing timber in hybrid poplar plantations using terrestrial laser scanning : a case study

Creator:: Barnett, Jennifer S.
Abstract:: Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) may provide a way to increase timber value recovery by replacing manual timber cruising with a simple-to-use, cost-effective alternative. TLS has been studied in several trials worldwide. Past studies have not compared TLS based estimates with mill estimates of stem value and volume. Three differently stocked...

The influence of early diagenesis on trace element and molybdenum isotope geochemistry

Creator:: Poulson, Rebecca L.
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the influence of early diagenesis on trace metal and molybdenum isotope behavior in marine and lacustrine environments. Chapter one is a synthesis of previous research in all the marine environments investigated, providing an essential geochemical context for interpreting the observed behavior of Mo in these settings. Chapter...

Incorporating the Impacts of Climate Variability on Growth in Fish Population Dynamics Models

Creator:: Moron Correa, Giancarlo Helar
Abstract:: Variations in ocean conditions influenced by climate fluctuations may impact fish populations by changing their spatial distribution, physiology, survival, and other ecological features. Somatic growth is a crucial aspect of the biology of fishes and an important contributor to biomass fluctuations. Climate variability also affects somatic growth rates along the...

Total synthesis of indole alkaloids: pt. 1. Asymmetric synthesis of (-)-ibogamine. pt. 2. An approach toward the synthesis of koumine

Creator:: Choi, Younggi
Abstract:: PART I. The preparation of (-)-ibogamine (1) in fourteen steps from benzoquinone and in 10% overall yield is a powerful illustration of the value of the asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction as a starting point in a multistep synthesis. All four cycloadducts, 70, 77, 84 and 96, obtained with the (S)-BINOL-TiCl₂ complex...

Under the Shadow of this Red Rock: Reading T. S. Eliot’s The Waste Land for its Places, Persons, and Poetics

Creator:: Summers, Stephen James
Abstract:: Thomas Stearns Eliot’s 1922 modernist poem The Waste Land presents itself as an alternative to the decaying society Eliot found himself inhabiting. It begins as a personal means of pulling together one’s fragmented consciousness, but in doing so Eliot manages to present a solution to a world of selfishness—looking beyond...

Value of Prior and Novel Information in Managing a Mixed-Stock Recreational Chinook Salmon Fishery

Creator:: Jensen, Alexander J.
Abstract:: Many economically important Pacific salmon fisheries along the west coast of North America are mixed-stock, recreational systems, in which managers strive to account for interactions between fish, anglers, and management policy while balancing fishery access against conservation of vulnerable stocks. Specific challenges facing fisheries managers include limited control over angling...

Quantification of state-and-transition model components utilizing long-term ecological response data following one-seed juniper treatment on a deep sand savannah ecological site

Creator:: Shaver, Patrick L.
Abstract:: A proposed state-and-transition model (STM) for the Deep Sand Savannah ecological site in central New Mexico was developed using historical data and expert knowledge. This STM was tested utilizing data from short and long term one-seed juniper (Juniperus monosperma (Engelm.) Sarg.) control experiments initiated in 1981 and 1985. Utilizing data...

Preparation and modification of cellooligosaccharides

Creator:: Akpinar, Ozlem
Abstract:: Cellooligosaccharides are the reaction intermediates produced during the hydrolysis of cellulose to glucose. Hence, they have the same chemical structure as cellulose, just shorter chain lengths. Cellooligosaccharides up to DP eight are soluble in water. The soluble cellooligosaccharides can be used "as is" in the food industry as non-digestible oligosaccharides...

Oregon's early peoples and their relation to the environment : an interpretive approach

Creator:: Possiel, William John
Abstract:: The dramatic upsurge of contract-supported archaeological activity, generated by legislative action, has precipitated an increase in information about Oregon's prehistoric peoples. This information, however, has not been presented in a format which can be easily understood by the general public. This study presents an account of early peoples in Oregon,...

Factors Influencing Streamflow Generation Processes in Rain-dominated, Coastal Watersheds in Oregon

Creator:: Pazdral, Rosemary
Abstract:: Relative to other systems in the PNW, the rain-dominated, coastal watersheds of western Oregon have shallow aquifers. Given the seasonality of streamflow and storage limitations in coastal, rain-dominated watersheds, changes in the temporal patterns of precipitation have the potential to magnify the risk of extreme streamflow conditions during both high-...
