A comprehensive integration of first year engineering education

Creator:: Shuman, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Retention of engineering students is a problem for many universities, especially during the first year. The problem of introducing students to engineering while increasing retention rates has recently been addressed by many different universities. Implementing novel lab structures, adjusting the lecture to incorporate more effective teaching techniques, and using orientation...

Modeling hop kilning with respect to energy consumption and drying kinetics

Creator:: Thomas, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Currently, little work has been performed studying energy consumption in hop kilning. This thesis explores drying with an alternative drying schedule that extends the initially elevated drying temperature currently used by growers and examines its impact on drying time and energy use. Extending the time of the initially elevated drying...

Ecophysiology of Marine Bivalves : Physiological Rate Processes in Dynamic Environments

Creator:: Gray, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Marine bivalves are globally recognized as ecologically and commercially valuable species and, for over a century, researchers have been studying their feeding, digestion and other related physiological processes. These studies have shown that marine bivalves have complex feeding and particle processing behaviors to maximize growth in dynamic environmental conditions. Additionally,...

Volatile mobility of trace metals in volcanic systems

Creator:: Loewen, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Semi-volatile trace metals like Li, Cu, Mo, Sn, In, and Pb have the potential to track mobility of a volatile phase in volcanic systems. In this dissertation four studies are presented that either directly investigate or are motivated by observations of trace metal behavior in volcanic systems. A common tool...

Analysis of semi-volatile trace metals in basaltic glass by LA-ICP-MS

Creator:: Loewen, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Semi-volatile trace metals (e.g., Cd, Sn, Pb, Zn, Cu, Mo) have been analyzed by using laser ablation ICP-MS in a number of silicate glasses (GSE-1G, GSD-1G, NIST 610, NIST 612, BCR-2G, BHVO-2G). Our work investigates and highlights sources of uncertainty in the analysis of semi-volatile metals using LA-ICP-MS. We identify...

Using in situ turbidity to estimate sediment loads in forested headwater streams : a top-down versus bottom-up approach

Creator:: Meadows, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Suspended sediment and in situ turbidity data from two western Oregon streams, Oak Creek and South Fork Hinkle Creek, were used to estimate annual sediment loads for the 2006 water year (October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2006). Water samples and in situ turbidity observations were taken following the Turbidity...

Effects of solar heating on the indirect effect of aerosols as deduced from observations of ship tracks

Creator:: Christensen, Matthew W.
Abstract:: One kilometer Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations for Terra (morning) and Aqua (afternoon) satellites were used to follow the morning to afternoon evolution of marine stratocumulus clouds that were affected by ship stack exhaust. The observations covered the summer months of 2002-2003 and August 2007 for marine layers off...

Morning-to-Afternoon Evolution of Marine Stratus Polluted by Underlying Ships: Implications for the Relative Lifetimes of Polluted and Unpolluted Clouds

Creator:: Christensen, Matthew W., Coakley, James A., Jr., and Tahnk, William R.
Abstract:: Ship tracks appearing in both the morning and afternoon Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) imagery for the Pacific Ocean off the west coast of the United States were used to study the morning-to-afternoon evolution of marine stratus polluted by underlying ships and nearby uncontaminated stratus. Analyzed 925-hPa winds were used...

Analysis of habitat features and abundance of young-of-the-year fishes off of the central Oregon coast

Creator:: Haven, Katlyn, Wakefield, W. Waldo, Brodeur, Richard, and Yergey, Matthew
Abstract:: Over the last several years, the Northwest Fisheries Science Center, in collaboration with the Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission and Oregon State University, has been sampling young-of-the-year groundfishes and other small demersal fishes along the Newport Hydrographic (NH) line. An important question concerning these surveys is whether the NH line...

The divergent effect of capture depth and associated barotrauma on post-recompression survival of canary (Sebastes pinniger) and yelloweye rockfish (S. ruberrimus)

Creator:: Hannah, Robert W., Rankin, Polly S., and Blume, Matthew T. O.
Abstract:: We evaluated the external signs of barotrauma and 48-h post-recompression survival for 17 54 canary and 81 yelloweye rockfish captured at depths of 46-174 m, much deeper than a 18 similar prior experiment, but within the depth range of recreational fishery catch and 19 discard. Survival was measured using specialized...
