In this thesis, data collected during the Dynamics of the Madden Julian Oscillation (DYNAMO) field campaign, conducted in the Indian Ocean in Fall of 2011, is used to compute heat fluxes at the air-sea interface by evaluating eddy covariances and bulk aerodynamic formulae. Errors in daily average gridded fluxes computed...
In 2012, a university in the north western United States began offering a redesigned college algebra class that had a greater emphasis on active learning. Specifically, two out of four class periods were completely devoted to students working together in small groups on carefully designed worksheets. Two years later, the...
Antimicrobial agents are being increasingly used in consumer soaps and detergents, despite a lack of data demonstrating their efficacy in such products. This study investigated the nature of the interaction between different crystalline structures of titanium dioxide nanoparticles and BTC, and explore which structure, if any, could be best used...
Two tributaries of the south fork of the Burnt River, near Unity Oregon were studied
during the summers of 2000 and 2001 to determine water heating and cooling
patterns. Hourly temperature data were recorded for air, water, and soil parameters
at four elevations 150m apart on Barney and Stevens Creeks....
Since the 1930's, many fields on the Crooked River National grasslands have been seeded to crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum). While some of these fields remain dominated by crested wheatgrass others had a greater presence of deep rooted native perennial grasses such as bluebunch wheatgrass (Pseudoroegneria spicata). Twenty eight fields previously...
