Combined plasmonic nanocrystals and metal–organic framework
thin-films are fabricated for sensing gases in the near-infrared
range. This nanocomposite thin-film shows a highly sensitive response
in near-infrared absorption, which is attributed to preconcentration
of gas molecules in metal–organic framework pores causing close
proximity to the electromagnetic fields at the plasmonic nanocrystal...

Bedrock meandering rivers are sinuous channels that pair steep bedrock outside banks with lower gradient slip-off slopes on the inside of bends. These rivers have the potential to record information on climatic and tectonic “external” forcings in their morphology (e.g., longitudinal profiles, strath terraces, channel and valley dimensions). However, geology...
The influence of increasing temperatures on human health has been widely established across multiple health disciplines. Short-term temperature changes are associated with an increased risk of hospitalization and death overall and in a variety of health conditions, such as cardiovascular disease. Even as humans can self-regulate heat stresses, the elderly,...
Aggregate piers have been used for centuries, with increasing occurrence in the last few decades. Their usage has been driven by land development demand and enabled through equipment and engineering improvements. Understanding the principles controlling bearing capacities and serviceability performance has been an ongoing area of interest for structures supported...
To quantify the distribution and abundance of the riparian-associated vertebrate
community, I surveyed streams in four basins in the Oregon Coast Range, 1992-1994. I
observed mostly birds with fewer observations of mammals. Belted Kingfishers (Ceryle
alcyon), American Dippers (Cinclus mexicanus), Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias),
and Mallards (Anus plalyrhynchos) comprised...
