Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) is a powerful ultrafast technique which can track photoinduced excited state structural events on femtosecond (fs) to picosecond (ps) timescales. In addition to high temporal and spectral resolutions, FSRS provides a broad spectral window from ca. 100—2000 cm-1 for detection, enabling the direct mapping of...
Forest collaboration emerged in Oregon about 30 years ago as a way to address increasing conflict and distrust amongst stakeholder groups and public land managers. The concept has spread widely, and forest collaboratives are now commonplace on most National Forests in the Pacific Northwest. These groups include a wide range...
We demonstrate a versatile and efficient setup to perform femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS). Technical innovations are implemented to achieve the wavelength tunability for both the picosecond narrowband Raman pump pulse and femtosecond broadband Raman probe pulse. Using a simplified one-grating scheme in a home-built second harmonic bandwidth compressor followed...
High performance multi-cell delta-sigma modulators are a preferred choice in applications which require programmability. Multi-cell delta-sigma modulators with M unit cells provide 10log10(M) SQNR improvement for the same thermal noise and bias power due to the uncorrelated quantization noises of the M unit ADCs. This concept is used in this...
Hydrate Ridge has the distinction of hosting the first documented subduction-driven cold seep system that supports chemosynthetic life by Anaerobic Oxidation of Methane as well as the most widely researched methane hydrate setting at any active continental margin. Today this site is a vital node of Northeast Pacific regional long-term...
This study assessed social, family, and personal resources
available to individuals in a financial crisis situation utilizing
mailed questionnaires. The sample consisted of 74 subjects in two
groups: (1) individuals in a financial crisis situation, identified
by their participation in a Consumer Credit Counseling Service program
and referred to in...
Monoclonal antibodies were developed against serotype 3, P-1059 strain of Pasteurella multocida. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were used to detect antibodies in supernatants of hybridoma cells to either a surface protective (2.5 S) antigen prepared from a 2.5% saline extract or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) prepared by the phenol-water method. Forty two...
Ice-ocean heat exchange in polar leads was examined using a large-eddy simulation
model coupled to a slab ice model. Simulations were performed using an idealized square
domain for a range of lead sizes, surface wind stress (0.05–0.1 N/m²), and lead
temperature/salinity profiles. Particular emphasis was placed on understanding the role...
Accurate scaled modeling and simulation are critical to advancing ocean wave linear generator buoys. A 100th scaled model of ocean wave generator buoy systems is analyzed by solving the Navier-Stokes equations. These equations are numerically solved using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) by implementing the front capturing method. In this thesis,...
3-Methyl-2,4-dioxabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane and 7-hydroxy-3-methyl-2, 4-dioxabicyclo [3.3.1] nonane were synthesized by the
method of Croxall, Glavis and Neher, although in low yields.
The structure of both compounds was proven by analytical
methods and analysis of their spectral properties.
Tentative configuration of C-3 in both compounds was
assigned on the assumption...
The primary purpose of this study was for three select
groups to critically appraise the Personal Hygiene for
Foodservice Workers sound/slide system. These three groups
(Media Specialists, Content Experts and the Learners) were
identified in a literature search as being those individuals
most directly responsible for evaluating the worth of...
An experiment was conducted to determine if selection from
standardized litters would be effective in separating lines of mice
selected for increased and decreased litter weight at 14 days of age,
and if response to selection on this maternally influenced trait could
be accurately predicted.
Data were collected on litter...
In coastal forests of the Pacific Northwest, young coniferous plantations typically contain a mixture of planted and natural Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and western hemlock (Tsuga heterophylla). Swiss needle cast (SNC) disease inhibits the growth of Douglas-fir to varying degrees in these stands, depending on SNC severity. In addition to the...
