A domain-specific embedded language for probabilistic programming

Creator:: Kollmansberger, Steven
Abstract:: Functional programming is concerned with referential transparency, that is, given a certain function and its parameter, that the result will always be the same. However, it seems that this is violated in applications involving uncertainty, such as rolling a dice. This thesis defines the background of probabilistic programming and domain-specific...

Use of nondestructive spectroscopy to assess chlorophyll and nitrogen in fresh leaves

Creator:: Ding, Pinghai
Abstract:: Four aspects of factors influencing the accuracy of nondestructive chlorophyll (Chl) and nitrogen (N) measurement in fresh leaves were studied: (1) optimum wavelength (OW) identification; (2) indices development and evaluation; (3) influence of leaf properties; and (4) influence of meter parameters and sampling technique. Results were used to develop indices...

The utility of playfulness in terms of innovation and productivity for business and a life of learning

Creator:: Adams, Jason S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this project was to investigate play and our cultural assumptions as to its usefulness or lack there of. The concepts of hard work versus hard play were explored in order to discover when human beings are operating at their best. In terms of innovation and productivity in...

Headwater stream macroinvertebrates of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Frady, Charles H.
Abstract:: Recent studies of headwater streams have demonstrated their importance to overall watershed biodiversity, nutrient cycling, and energy flux. However, little attention has been paid to long-term effects of forest harvest on macroinvertebrate communities in headwater streams. This study investigated headwater stream macroinvertebrate communities in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon,...

Heavy fermion effective mass in the superconducting vortex state

Creator:: Townsend, Emily A.
Abstract:: The extended-Lifshitz-Kosevitch formalism (ELK) unifies the treatment of the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect, allowing it to transcend its traditional roles of mapping Fermi surfaces and measuring effective masses. Here we exploit the capabilities of dHvA as a probe of many-body effects to examine heavy-fermion su- perconductivity. ELK successfully describes...

Grazing, nutrients, and marine benthic algae : insights into the drivers and protection of diversity

Creator:: Guerry, Anne D., 1973-
Abstract:: Two of the most powerful ways in which humans have altered ecosystems are by increasing productivity and changing the densities of important consumers. The bottom-up effects of productivity and the top-down effects of consumers have been identified as primary determinants of biological diversity, though the links between them remain unclear....

Electric utility pole yard training facility : Designing an effective learning environment

Creator:: Topping, Robert P.
Abstract:: The primary responsibility of electric utilities is to supply consistent, dependable, and affordable energy to private customers, businesses, and industries. As with many businesses, electric utilities are experiencing the effects of an aging workforce and expending considerable resources to train their current and replacement workers. Community colleges can partner with...

Patterns and processes of sediment transport following sediment-filled dam removal in gravel bed rivers

Creator:: Stewart, Gregory B.
Abstract:: Dam removal is increasingly viewed as a river restoration tool because dams affect so many aspects of river hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology; but removal also has impacts. When a dam is removed, sediment accumulated over a dam’s lifetime may be transported downstream; and the timing, fate and consequences of this...

The heart of leadership : An autoethnographic study of issues that impact educational leadership

Creator:: Prince, Erin K.
Abstract:: This autoethnography explores issues that impact educational leadership by examining individual reflections, perceptions, and responses developed through the lens of a principal of two elementary schools. The main data source involves journal entries collected over a period of one year. Theories of educational leadership styles and effective school practices form...
