The composition of the continental crust is closely tied to subduction zone magmatism. Elevated oxygen fugacity (fO₂) plays a central role in fostering crystallization of oxide minerals and thereby aids in generating the calc-alkaline trend of iron depletion that characterizes the continents. Along continental margins, arc magmas erupt through continental...

Single-scattering tomography describes a model of photon transfer through a object in which photons are assumed to scatter at most once. The Broken Ray transform arises from this model, and was first investigated by Lucia Florescu, Vadim A. Markel, and John C. Schotland, [2], in 2010, followed by an inversion,...

Reflux condensation tests examining steam condensation in a PWR steam
generator (SG) were conducted at the Oregon State University (OSU) Advanced
Plant Experiment (APEX) Test Facility from 2005 through 2007. The
experimental data collected will provide a basis to assess TRACE steam generator
modeling techniques and assist in development of...

AN ABSTRACT OF
The thesis area consists of 44 square miles in southeast Harney
County, Oregon. The Pueblo Mountains are located in the northwest
part of the Basin and Range structural province, and are characterized
by normal faults of large displacement that produced the tilted fault
block mountain range.
The oldest rocks exposed...

Undergraduate enrollment in forest resource programs has been declining for the past 10 to 15 years, with enrollment in some programs nearing critical levels. Efforts to increase enrollment include broadening program offerings, creating new majors (especially in spatial information systems), and increasing recruiting efforts. A potential recruiting approach is working...

This paper reports the feasibility of using surface mount adhesives to produce low temperature microchannel arrays in a wide variety of metals. Sheet metal embossing and chemical etching processes have been used to produce sealing bosses that eliminate channel laminae, resulting in approximately 50% material savings over traditional methods. An...

Multibeam (1 m resolution) and side scan data collected from an autonomous underwater vehicle, and
lava samples, radiocarbon-dated sediment cores, and observations of flow contacts collected by remotely
operated vehicle were combined to reconstruct the geologic history and flow emplacement processes on
Axial Seamount’s summit and upper rift zones. The...
