  • Exploring the potential for using deep-sea bamboo corals (Isidella sp.) for paleoceanographic reconstructions

    Creator:
    Hornung, Jonathan P.
    Abstract:
    Deep-sea bamboo coral (Isidella sp.) SE000901A from the southern Oregon coast (water depth 1048m) provides a high-resolution record of variability of North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) and carbon rain to the sea floor, related to coastal upwelling, from 1808 to 2000AD. Counting of annual layers in magnesium to calcium (Mg/Ca)...

  • Rope Selection for Rope Drive Transmissions Used in Robotic Manipulation

    Creator:
    Summers, Michael P.
    Abstract:
    Wire and fiber ropes used in rigorous CBOS (cyclic bend over sheave) applications were investigated. Small diameter stainless steel, tungsten, and Vectran® ropes were tested over small sheaves at high loads and cycle speeds. Sheaves were made with Al6061-T6511 and Al7075-T651 and were coated with 0.002” hard coat anodize; some...

  • Physiochemical mechanisms for the transport and retention of technetium

    Creator:
    Jansik, Danielle P.
    Abstract:
    Understanding the transport and retention of radionuclides in the environment is important for protecting freshwater supplies and minimizing impact to biologic systems. Technetium-99 (Tc⁹⁹) is a radionuclide of interest due to its long half-life (2.13 x 10⁵ years) and toxicity. In the form of pertechnetate (TcO₄⁻), Tc is expected to...

  • The Cost of Caring: An Exploratory Study of the Professional Quality of Life of Early-Career SBAE Teachers in Oregon

    Creator:
    Schmidt, Kirby J.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this research is to describe the secondary traumatic stress (STS) levels of early career school based agriculture (SBAE) teachers. Using the professional quality of life (ProQOL) scale (Stamm, 2010) as a theoretical framework, secondary traumatic stress, burnout (BO) and compassion satisfaction (CS) levels were measured among (n...

  • Pion content in nucleon using finite renormalization scheme with spectral amplitude separation of ghosts

    Creator:
    Symmes, Jonathan P.
    Abstract:
    We develop a technique to express the nucleon pole strength and bare mass in terms of renormalized quantities. Starting from a general unrenormalized self energy we determine the bare mass and the pole strength. For determining the pion content of the nucleon we discuss the leading renormalization loop. We relate...

  • Dynamics of the Columbia River tidal plume

    Creator:
    Kilcher, Levi F.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation investigates the dynamics of the tidally modulated outflow from the Columbia River mouth using high resolution measurements of velocity, density and turbulent microstructure. At high tide, flow through the river mouth reverses from flood (onshore) to ebb (offshore). During ebb, buoyant fluid issues from the river mouth and...

  • A Bayesian Treatise on the Replication Crisis in Science

    Creator:
    Gibson, True E.
    Abstract:
    Over the past decade, it has come to light that many published scientific findings cannot be reproduced. This has led to the replication crisis in science. Many researchers feel that they can no longer trust much of what they read in scientific journals, and the public is becoming ever more...

  • Radically reframing environmental problems : The Salmon 2100 case study

    Creator:
    Lane, David Earl
    Abstract:
    There are typically two responses to the complex environmental problems of our time: 1) doom and gloom and 2) optimism. There is a lot of doom and gloom in the environmental literature. This literature warns that the future portends danger for humans and their life support systems. But when one...

  • Cross-Cultural Comparison of Business Practices Between Oregon and Taiwan

    Creator:
    Kizer, Kylyn
    Abstract:
    A cross-cultural analysis of business practices based on video recordings of interviews with business professionals in both Oregon and Taiwan, with the intent of finding evidence to support or question current beliefs about cultural differences between American and Asian cultures. Particular focus is paid to business practices such as networking,...

  • Politicized Collective Illness Identity and Boundary-Spanning in Western Montanan Community Health Workers: An Ethnographic Study

    Creator:
    McQuillan, Kindra
    Abstract:
    Background: Against global health disparities and a shortfall of medical personnel, community health workers (CHWs) promise a solution based in lived experience and connection to the health system. To address global and upstream health determinants, CHW programs engage the perspectives of both the workers they employ and the communities they...
