Research shows that one in four migrant farmworkers experienced an episode of one or more mental health disorders such as stress, depression, or anxiety in their lifetime. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to explore experiences and perceptions related to stress and depression among Latino migrant and seasonal...
This paper is the result of extensive experiments, investigating the effect on typical distribution transformers when operated overexcited as much as 117% of their rated voltage.
The investigation
of impurity effects on the properties of alkali
halide crystals has often been difficult because of the variation of procedures used in various experiments.
The purpose of this work is to
develop a self consistent method of measuring the IV dipole polarization properties of single crystals while eliminating...
The purpose of this study was to describe the level to which a target work culture based on core organizational values was shared in one lumber manufacturing plant. The organization under study perceived that their culture was a source of competitive advantage and was key to their success in safety,...
Portland, Oregon Is in the northern end of the Willamette River Basin and
Valley. The Willamette River caries the runoff discharge from approximately 12,000 square
miles of basin area, and flows northward where it bisects the Portland metropolitan area
and enters the confluence with the Columbia River. However, high discharge...
First recorded as a problem in 2003, wildfire smoke has been found to affect wine grapes and lead to alterations to a wine’s flavor profile. Smoke can carry organic volatile compounds over vast distances, which can then be deposited on grapes and are absorbed into the grape’s cells. These compounds...
The mechanisms governing short- and long-term belowground carbon dynamics need to be understood. As part of a larger project developed to assess the effect of quantity and quality of litter inputs on the rate of soil organic matter (SOM) formation, I examined SOM in the H. J. Andrews Detritus Input...
