The Influence of Glacial Isostatic Adjustment on Marine Stratigraphic Correlation

Creator:: King, Meghan E.
Abstract:: Glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) alters the amplitude and timing of ‘glacioeustatic’ sea level maxima and minima around the globe. No study has examined the intrinsic distance that one can correlate marine stratigraphic records of glacial–interglacial sedimentation across continental shelves subject to varying amounts of GIA. Here, we seek to model...

An investigation into the comparative utility of color infrared aerial photography and LANDSAT data for detailed surface cover type mapping within Crater Lake National Park, Oregon

Creator:: Walsh, Stephen Joseph, 1951-
Abstract:: The identification and mapping of surface cover types within Crater Lake National Park, Oregon, has been effectively completed through the utilization of LANDSAT digital data and NASA U-2 color infrared aerial photography. Classification of LANDSAT data for surface cover type identification and mapping was accomplished through use of the Interactive...

Absolute water velocity profiles from glider-mounted acoustic doppler current profilers

Creator:: Ordonez, Christopher Edward
Abstract:: This paper details a method to compute absolute water velocity profiles from glider-based acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) measurements based on the "shear method" developed for lowered ADCPs. The instrument is a 614-kHz Teledyne RDI ADCP integrated into the body of a Teledyne Webb Research Slocum Glider. Shear is calculated...

Buddhist Theories of Karma and the Effect of Prosocial Behavior on Perceptions of Others

Creator:: Allen, Pamela M.
Abstract:: Psychological theory of social cognition and Buddhist philosophy of cognition suggest that people's actions should determine their impressions of future events. In psychology, several studies have shown that behavior can activate constructs and thereby influence one's perception. However, they do not address prosocial behavior, a specific concern of Buddhist philosophy...

Predicting county-level food insecurity and hunger in Oregon

Creator:: Grussing, Jay D.
Abstract:: Oregon’s high hunger and food insecurity rates have been a concern throughout the last decade. These high rates earned Oregon the dubious distinction as the most food insecure with hunger state in the late 1990’s. While Oregon’s ranking has improved in recent years, our understanding of why Oregon ranked so...

A Paleomagnetic and Environmental Magnetic Record from the Eastern South Pacific Sector of the Southern Ocean (0-1.7 Ma): IODP Site U1543

Creator:: Monito, Lindsey
Abstract:: This research presents a u-channel based study of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM), the laboratory magnetization, Anhysteretic Remanent Magnetization (ARM), and magnetic susceptibility (k), from the upper 100 m of International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 383 Site U1543 in the eastern South Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean. Alternating...

Towards the Development of Performance-Based Concrete Mixtures Made with Modern Cementitious Materials Using Thermodynamic Modeling

Creator:: Bharadwaj Ravi, Keshav
Abstract:: This thesis builds on a modeling tool that has been developed to link thermodynamic modeling and concrete performance. This tool is intended to predict the performance for modern concrete mixtures made with ordinary portland cement (OPC), conventional and novel supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), and limestone (Ls). The first part of...

Soil-bridge interaction during long-duration earthquake motions

Creator:: Romney, Kyle T.
Abstract:: Earthquake engineering analyses are often performed using shallow, crustal earthquake motions (e.g., 1940 El Centro). However, large areas of the world are subject to subduction zone earthquake motions (e.g., the Pacific Northwest). A subduction zone earthquake motion is characterized by its long duration (e.g., strong shaking lasts for more than...

Investigation of the biomechanics of running and rapid change-of-direction tasks

Creator:: Golden, Grace M.
Abstract:: Rapid change-of-direction tasks have been associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and females are more likely to suffer this injury compared to males. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of running and three rapid change-of-direction tasks and determine whether sex differences exist across...
