A marine seismic refraction study, conducted in August 1976 by personnel
from Oregon State University and the University of Connecticut between Cape
Simpson and Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, provides data for analysis which yields a
subsurface structural and geological cross-section of the area.
The results suggest that the structural homocline which...
We study a class M of cyclically presented groups that includes both finite and infinite groups and is defined by a certain combinatorial condition on the defining relations. This class includes many finite metacyclic generalized Fibonacci groups that have been previously identified in the literature. By analyzing their shift extensions...
Recently obtained airgun-sonobuoy wide-angle refraction and
reflection profiles provide data to study crustal velocities and
structures along the continental margin of northern California and
Southern Oregon.
In the thick sedimentary wedge at the base of the continental
slope, as many as five distinct layers can be seismically observed,
which range...
Ph.D. candidate Qi Wei's thesis consists of two projects: Chemotherapy Project: a study based on the research paper "Predicting chemotherapy response of various cancer types using a variational auto-encoder approach" submitted to the bioRxiv preprint archive and accepted by the BMC bioinformatics; and Wound Monitor Project: implementing and assessing analytics...
About 7,000 years ago two major tephra-falls blanketed the
Pacific Northwest in volcanic ash. These two tephra-falls, identified
as the Llao and climatic tephra-falls, were a part of the eruptive
events that led up to the collapse of Mount Mazama to form Crater Lake
in the southern Oregon Cascades.
The...
Restoration programs effectively prevent or mitigate wildfires and pest outbreaks in the forest lands. The most common approach is to selectively harvest smaller and dead trees in order to preserve larger and superior trees. Ponderosa pine, Pinus ponderosa, (PP) lumber is one of the common species harvested from restoration programs...
