Classrooms in Conflict: Oregon State College and The Korean War

Creator:: Soder, Carl W.
Abstract:: This presentation examines how the Korean War influenced academic life at Oregon State College and later Oregon State University. By profiling students and faculty involved in the conflict, new insights emerged into how war transforms higher education. Three Oregon State perspectives encapsulate the turbulent 20th-century geopolitics of the Korean peninsula....

Real Time Temporal Spectroscopy for Characterizing Special Nuclear Material

Creator:: Mannino, Mitch
Abstract:: Characterizing special nuclear material (SNM) is critical for nuclear security and non-proliferation. Temporal spectroscopy is a novel and efficient method for characterizing relative material content of special nuclear material. Fission products produced by SNM after being irradiated by a thermal neutron beam can have different half-lives, but can contribute to...

‘Difficult to place’? Understanding child and family level factors affecting placement stability for youth in foster care

Creator:: Probert, Kylee
Abstract:: Introduction: Youth in foster care face greater rates of trauma and subsequent mental health challenges (Bruce et al., 2009; O’Neill et al., 2012; Seltzer et al., 2012; etc.) that place increased burden on their caregivers (Daniel, 2011; McKeough et al., 2017), suggesting that these specific groups of youth in foster...

New Graphite Intercalation Chemistry with Alkaline Earth Metals

Creator:: Xu, Wei
Abstract:: Novel graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) and associated chemistry have been explored, specifically: (1) containing alkyl- substituted imidazolium cations; (2) a series containing alkaline earth metal (Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) cations with ethylenediamine (en) co-intercalates; (3) showing reversible intragallery M-M bonding and (4) via electrochemical intercalation of Mg cations with potential...

Efficacy of Empirical Seed Zones: Pseudoroegneria Spicata Reproductive Phenology & Seedling Stage Traits

Creator:: Prive, Kathryn A.
Abstract:: Ecological restoration is needed to mitigate losses to biodiversity. Restoration success is enhanced through the use of native plant materials that are genetically diverse and locally adapted. Seed transfer zones have been developed to delineate geographic areas where native seed can be collected and distributed with reduced risk of maladaptation....

Effects of Secondary Salinization on Three Coastal Breeding Amphibians in Oregon: Taricha granulosa, Hyliola regilla, and Rana aurora

Creator:: Goddard, Amanda L.
Abstract:: Due to threats of secondary salinization caused by increased saltwater intrusion upstream associated with climate change, this thesis examines how salinity affects the development and oviposition site selection habits of three Oregon coastal breeding amphibians, the Roughskin Newt (Taricha granulosa), the Northern Red-legged Frog (Rana aurora) and the Pacific Treefrog...

Grassland Restoration and Climate Change: Altar Valley, Arizona Case Study

Creator:: Gondor, Anne
Abstract:: The Altar Valley is an important working landscape that supports biodiversity and vulnerable species in Pima County, Arizona (Huckelberry 2000). This semi-desert grassland, alluvial valley and 713,807-acre watershed composed of 39 subbasins serves as an aquifer to a portion of southwestern Tucson. This region of Southern Arizona has been identified...

The Disinformation Dozen and Media Misinformation on Science and Vaccinations

Creator:: Mabrey, Benjamin E.
Abstract:: The COVID-19 pandemic has shed a light on the need for people to trust in medical science. With the need for 70% of Americans to be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity but 30% have reported vaccine hesitancy, now more than ever do we need to redouble our efforts to ensure...

The hazards-housing nexus : adaptive capacity wheel analysis of coastal planning institutions

Creator:: Patterson, Trisha
Abstract:: The Oregon coast faces complex environmental and social challenges, such as the threat of a regionally disastrous Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquake and tsunami. Researchers are united in their assertion that the CSZ is new, the region is due for a quake, and to mitigate this hazard society must collaborate...

Early post-restoration recovery of tidal wetland structure and function at the Southern Flow Corridor project, Tillamook Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Janousek, Christopher, Bailey, Scott, van de Wetering, Stan, Brophy, Laura, Bridgham, Scott, Schultz, Matthew, and Tice-Lewis, Maxwell
Abstract:: A substantial fraction of estuarine tidal wetlands have been lost to development or other human uses in the Pacific Northwest since the 1800s. Wetland restoration, typically through tidal re-connection, can restore normal tidal hydrology to these areas and improve estuarine capacity to support ecosystem functions and services. Restoration may initiate...
