An experimental and numerical modeling investigation was conducted to study interactions between microbial dynamics and transport processes in variably saturated porous media. These interactions are important in a variety of applied problems such as water and wastewater treatment, bioremediation, and oil-field recovery operations. These processes and interactions also have great...
The western Nearctic species of the genus Phytocoris Fallen were
taxonomically revised. Over 15,000 specimens were examined.
Information concerning host plant associations and distributions was
compiled and summarized for use by future researchers. External
morphological features and characters of the male genitalia were used
to distinguish species. The genital tubercles...
Magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits are giant geochemical anomalies in the earth’s crust most often generated by normal magmatic terrestrial processes. They are often associated with oxidized and hydrous intermediate to highly evolved magmas that have concentrated metals and have the necessary components to efficiently extract and transport them as ascending magmatic-hydrothermal...

The thesis area includes 44 square miles of the Centennial
Range in Beaverhead County, Montana, and Clark County, Idaho.
The rocks exposed in the area range in age from Precambrian
to Recent and have been divided into 23 mapped units. Pre-Belt
metamorphic basement rocks are overlain unconformably by 3,433
feet...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
JOHN LEE MORAN for the MASTER OF SCIENCE
Interactions between sediment bacteria and available phosphate
necessary for algal production in a eutrophic lake were studied.
Twenty percent of the organisms isolated solubilized phosphate forms
such as CaHPO₄, Ca₃(PO₄)₂, FePO₄, Mg₃(PO₄)₂ and Al₂(PO₄)₂.
Solubilization of phosphates occurred under conditions of aerobic
growth.
Upon quantitative analysis, some isolates were capable...
The extent of agricultural drainage has created concern for its potential undesirable effects on surface water quality. Land applications of liquid manure on tile drain fields have the potential to transport solutes and bacteria to the drains following precipitation or irrigation events and many times are directly sent to a...
Quercus garryana dominated plant communities are found in
the interior coastal valleys and on foothills from southeastern
Vancouver Island, British Columbia, south to San Francisco,
California. They occur as savannas, intermixed with a variety of
conifers, and in almost pure stands. The diversity of habitats
occupied by the species and...
The boreal forest of North America is especially liable to destruction by fires. It is a region in which forest fires have been extremely common and wide spreading. Lightning is certainly one of the causes of fires but man, both aboriginal and white, has been an even more prolific source....
This study describes the development and analysis of a manual
for management and supervisory personnel involved with employee
training programs in sanitary food production in the frozen fruit and
vegetable industry. The physical aspects of the plant, microbiology
of frozen foods, and employee training are discussed in relationship
to the...
An ASR metric and site rating index applied to over 120 municipal and agricultural locations across Oregon, combined with comparison to case study data from existing ASR sites, indicate that more than 50% of selected sites are hydrogeologically suitable for ASR. The ASR metric is a ratio of aquifer storage...
Managing wildlands to protect species and ecosystem services in response to climate change is challenging. To develop effective long-term strategies, natural resource managers need to account for the projected effects of climate change as well as the uncertainty inherent in those projections. Vegetation models are one important source of projected...
