The energy absorbed by microscopic volumes exposed to ionizing
radiation is not well represented by the average dose due to the small
number of discrete energy transfers involved. The energy deposited in
a microscopic volume can be determined by measuring the ionization in
a detector filled with gas at low...
My work has focused on investigating synthetic organic reactions using applied computational methods. Non-covalent interactions are critical to catalysis, mechanism, and stereoselectivity, with the most prominent interaction for isothioureas being the S···O contact between the catalyst sulfur atom and the oxygen of the acyl group. A comprehensive joint experimental and...
Porphyry Cu-(Au-Mo) deposits are critical sources of several economically important metals. The processes governing the total metal endowment and relative proportions of ore metals at these large magmatic-hydrothermal deposits remain uncertain. The Sulphurets porphyry district, in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, contains four porphyry Au-Cu-Mo deposits that each feature distinct Cu/Au...
The use of radioactive isotopes as tracers in biological systems
has become widespread since the close of World War II. Proper
use of radiotracers requires a fundamental understanding of the physical
nature of radioactivity, the characteristics of ionizing radiation,
and the various methods available for measuring radioactivity.
More importantly, the...
Penetration has long been recognized as an important factor
in the action of chemicals on plants. The effectiveness of herbicides
on such plants as blackberries is often thought to be limited by the
failure to obtain adequate penetration through the cuticular barrier.
A number of factors, among them relative humidity,...
Most of the policy debate surrounding the actions needed to mitigate and adapt to anthropogenic climate change has been framed by observations of the past 150 years as well as climate and sea-level projections for the twenty-first century. The focus on this 250-year window, however, obscures some of the most...

The accuracy of state-of-the-art global barotropic tide models is assessed using bottom
pressure data, coastal tide gauges, satellite altimetry, various geodetic data on Antarctic ice shelves, and
independent tracked satellite orbit perturbations. Tide models under review include empirical, purely
hydrodynamic (“forward”), and assimilative dynamical, i.e., constrained by observations. Ten dominant...
European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is an important crop Oregon's Willamette Valley, producing 99% of the hazelnuts grown in North America and brings over US $60 million dollars to the region annually. Hazelnuts are rich in fiber and vitamins, as well in demand by consumers due to their popularity as...
During the last five years the demand for electrical
energy in the state of Oregon,and throughout the entire
country,has increased to such an extent that electrical
generating stations have become an important factor in the
economic development of the common wealth.
Uonsidering the great need for cheap power, which
is...

New highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). were developed from several sources. The markers were characterized, and segregation in a mapping population allowed to assign them to linkage groups. Their transferability across genera and species in the Betulaceae family was investigated. SSR markers...
This study had two purposes: to determine solid waste management needs of residents and organizations of the San Xavier District Indian reservation near Tucson, Arizona; and to develop a solid waste management plan to be recommended to the San Xavier District Tribal Council.
A solid waste generation study compared the...
Grain is produced on upwards of 100,000 acres in the Klamath Basin including nearly 50,000 acres within the Klamath Reclamation Project. Susceptibility to late spring frost has historically limited winter cereal production and spring cereals have accounted for the majority of production. Klamath Basin Research & Extension Center (KBREC) cereal...
