Crime rates affect everything from home values, to the quality of education. Through the use of Social Disorganization Theory this paper will support the hypothesis that there is a correlation between neighborhood upkeep and crime rates within neighborhoods. Social Disorganization theory itself aims to show the correlation between the place...

Provides information about complexity of watersheds. Outlines ways to form partnerships, to develop strategies for enhancing watershed resources, and to implement enhancement projects.
Dams impound the majority of rivers and provide important societal benefits, especially daily water releases that enable on-peak hydroelectricity generation. Such “hydropeaking” is common worldwide, but its downstream impacts remain unclear. We evaluated the response of aquatic insects, a cornerstone of river food webs, to hydropeaking using a life history–hydrodynamic...

Summary
1. Woody plant encroachment of grasslands is occurring globally, with profound ecological
consequences. Attempts to restore herbaceous dominance may fail if the woody state is resilient
or if intervention leads to an alternate, undesirable state. Restoration outcomes often
hinge on biotic interactions – particularly on priority effects that inhibit...

A year-long, bench-scale treatability study was performed to assess whether an activated sludge sequencing batch reactor could be used to treat an influent stream of 50/50 (v/v) municipal wastewater and landfill leachate to discharge standards established by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. One primary obstacle that was exposed during...

The undergradtuate research project was the completion, manipulation and assessment of a population model. The stage based population model assessed the late larval and juveniles stages of the hard shell clam Mercenaria mercenaria. There were seven class sizes input into the model starting with pediveligers and ending with juveniles at...
