This thesis addresses numerical simulation of flow maldistribution in microchannels. Microchannels are often associated with two phase-flows which can generate many problems such as plugging the channel or perturbing the flow. In this study we have used CFD and fully resolved technique to simulate what would happen in the case...
We are studying the impacts of parasites on threatened stocks of Oregon coastal coho
salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). In our previous studies, we have found high infections of
digeneans and myxozoans in coho salmon parr from the lower main stem of West Fork Smith
River (WFSR), Oregon. In contrast parr from...

The use of DNA markers in public sector plant breeding is now the norm. Such markers are common across breeding programs and this commonality enables and enhances collaboration. Therefore, large collaborative research projects that measure several phenotypes across multiple environments coupled with the expanding amount of genotype data attainable with...
The management of the home has been a central
component of Home Economics since the early 1900s. It is,
however, an enigmatic behavior that has not yielded easily
to research. Recognizing that meal provision and food
consumption by families incorporate management processes
and occur on a regular and frequent basis,...
The purpose of this investigation was to ascertain if there are
differences in attitudes among married males, married females,
single males, and single females toward 11 attitudinal variables.
More specifically the study focused on the impact of the college
environment on married students.
The students who participated in the study...
Deciphering the evolution of global climate from the end of the Last Glacial Maximum approximately 19 ka to the early Holocene 11 ka presents an outstanding opportunity for understanding the transient response of Earth's climate system to external and internal forcings. During this interval of global warming, the decay of...
The red tree vole (Arborimus longicaudus) is an arboreal Arvicoline rodent endemic to conifer dominated forests of western Oregon and northwestern California. While commonly associated with old forests, often inhabiting stands over 80 years old, tree voles have also been found in young forests between 20 and 80 years old....
Pre-spawning mortality (PSM) presents a major problem for population recovery of spring Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Willamette River basin. In certain reaches and years, PSM has exceeded 90%. Histology has been used as the primary diagnostic method to investigate PSM in the Chinook Salmon, and a collection of...
Directing feature films in the GDR was largely a male-dominated profession. One of the few female directors was Iris Gusner, whose films explored issues working GDR women faced in their everyday lives. A close reading of her 1984 feature film Kaskade Rückwärts, in particular the focus on sound and on...
