Mood-dynamic playlist : interpolating a path of emotions using a KNN algorithm

Creator:: Gaur, Shaurya
Abstract:: Users curate music playlists based on emotion to focus or relax, so streaming services often create playlists of songs to aid this process. Prior research focuses on generating playlists of a single mood or genre, although a few studies work to construct automatic playlists that transition between the genres of...

Deposition and characterization of transition metal oxides from aqueous solution

Creator:: Betterton, Sharon A.
Abstract:: The aqueous chemistries of two transition metal cations, Zr⁴⁺ and Nb⁵⁺, are examined and then used to develop inorganic precursor solutions. The oxides of these cations (ZrO₂ and Nb₂O₅) are deposited and characterized, and their morphological and optical properties discussed. Due to the obstacles created by niobium's aqueous chemistry, an...

Making the Connection: Linking Stress Physiology of Juvenile Northern Spotted Owls to Environmental Variation and Long-term Survival

Creator:: Mikkelsen, Ashlee J.
Abstract:: The northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina; spotted owl) is of conservation concern and endemic to mature forests of the Pacific Northwest. Adult survival has a strong effect on population growth rate, but juvenile survival and recruitment are also important components of population change. Despite the importance of this life...

The Role of Grazing and Weather in Nest Predator-Prey Dynamics and Reproductive Success of Sagebrush-obligate Songbirds

Creator:: Schroeder, Vanessa M.
Abstract:: Livestock grazing occurs worldwide, spanning over 25% of land globally. Effective conservation of biodiversity relies upon understanding the interactions of agricultural management practices and increasingly variable weather associated with climate change. I evaluated grazing, weather and predator-prey interactions within a grazing experiment in the sagebrush ecosystem of southeastern Oregon. I...

Improving Region-Scale Landslide Inventory and Susceptibility Mapping

Creator:: Bunn, Michael D.
Abstract:: Landslides are a natural hazard that have major societal, economic, and environmental impacts. The understanding of landslides begins with the observation that they are a spatial problem. Spatial relationships have historically been explored with maps, and landslides are no different. Such maps range in focus from inventory maps, which identify...

Diel Rest Structure Selection and Multiscale Analysis of Pacific Marten Resting Habitat in Lassen National Forest, California

Creator:: Tweedy, Patrick J.
Abstract:: Forests in the western United States have changed drastically over the past 150 years given a long history of utilization (harvest and grazing) and associated fire exclusion. These actions have altered the composition and structure of these forests as well as affected ecosystem function. Current policies for federal land management...

Regional patterns of alkalinity in Oregon streams: an overview of ecological regionalization

Creator:: Henderson, Sandra
Abstract:: While many geographers believe that the regional concept is central to geographic study, no definitive regional scheme exists. The criteria considered in each regional study will relate to a stated objective or study. Ecological regionalization is a major contribution by geographers to environmental studies. By examining spatial patterns of factors...

Life History of the Northern Rubber Boa (Charina bottae) in Oregon

Creator:: Leppin, Mark V.
Abstract:: The Northern Rubber Boa (Charina bottae) is a small, secretive boa native to the Pacific Northwest. Despite this being possibly the highest latitude boas and one of only two boas native to the continental U.S., it has received surprisingly little attention. Most of the research on the natural history of...

Restoration of Pigeon Guillemot Nesting Habitat Through Removal of Introduced Predators

Creator:: Stark, Samuel B.
Abstract:: The 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill (EVOS) in Prince William Sound, Alaska provided impetus for a great deal of research into the ecosystems of the Northern Gulf of Alaska. Buried within the multitude of resulting impacts, which included hundreds of thousands of oiled seabirds and dramatic ecosystem shifts in the...

Orb Web Vibrations: Modeling, Localization, and Measurement

Creator:: Otto, Andrew W.
Abstract:: The orb web is a multipurpose structure---serving as a home for its inhabitant spider, as a prey capture device, and as a physical extension of the spider’s sensing abilities. Biologists are particularly interested in the spider’s ability to locate prey trapped in its web by sensing the vibrations induced from...
