A Monte Carlo analysis of principal components and ridge regression with application to a fisheries evaluation model

Creator:: Sass, M. E. (Mary Ellen)
Abstract:: Essential to the testing of propositions in economic theory is the estimation of the parameters involved in relationships among economic variables. Probably the most widely used method of estimation is ordinary least squares (OLS). However, severe multicollinearity or near linear dependence of the explanatory variables can cause the OLS estimates...

A network simulation model of a fish processing plant

Creator:: Jonatansson, Elias
Abstract:: The fish processing industry is the most important industry in Iceland. The single most important processing method is quickfreezing, and the major market is in the United States. With increasing competition in the market from countries like Canada, productivity of fish processing plants is becoming increasingly important. This research focuses...

Assessing cross-media impacts : a comparative risk approach

Creator:: Borys, David S.
Abstract:: In 1993 The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality developed a Cross-media Comparative Risk Assessment model to address certain regulatory concerns. Due to budget constraints the model was never beta tested. Now in 1995, the X-media project has been reopened, and the model revised, and tested. Specific revisions include: 1) Upgrade...

Effects of planting density and thinning on growth, stem form, and crown recession in young red alder

Creator:: Lewis, Robert G. (Robert Gorden), 1959-
Abstract:: Stem growth, stem form development, and the dynamics of crown recession in young red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) were studied by analyzing annual growth rings of stems and knots, annual height increments, projected crown areas, and branch diameters. Forty-one trees were sampled from three plantation spacing studies, representing ages 1...

Modeling biomass transport on single lane forest roads and monitoring GPS accuracy for vehicle tracking under different forest canopy conditions

Creator:: Simwanda, Matamyo
Abstract:: The transportation of wood and biomass resources from landing and other collection locations to processing and distribution sites is a substantial cost within the wood supply chain. These high costs provide a basis for research aimed at improving biomass transportation planning decisions and potentially reducing biomass transportation costs. Chip vans...

Multiobjective model of the Pacific whiting fishery in the United States

Creator:: Enríquez Andrade, Roberto R.
Abstract:: Pacific whiting (Merluccius productus) is commercially and ecologically one of the most important fishery resources in the Pacific coast of the United States. The fishery is currently going through a period of rapid and profound transformation that could cause a substantial redistribution of benefits among domestic users. Benefits from the...

Light-frame versus timber frame : a study in quantifying the differences

Creator:: Malone, Brian P.
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to compare light wood framing and traditional timber framing quantitatively through environmental impact assessment and load path analysis. This research was inspired by a traditional timber frame structure constructed in Vermont in 2011, and the design of structures considered within reflect the general characteristics...

Determination of quality parameters for the Pacific whiting fishery using neural network and induction modeling

Creator:: Peters, Gregory J.
Abstract:: Pacific whiting, with a maximum sustainable yield between 150,000 and 250,000 metric tons, is the largest stock of fish found off Oregon. The majority of the fish are processed into surimi. Hundreds of variables could potentially affect surimi quality (gel strength). Alternative harvesting and processing input combinations, as well as...

The economics of spatial choice and displacement: case study of the Oregon bottom trawl groundfish fishery

Creator:: Valcic, Branka
Abstract:: To increase the knowledge needed to successfully implement the ecosystem-based approach to fishery management, this dissertation investigates important issues within the economics of choice and the economics of displacement. In particular, a discrete choice model of the fishing location decision in the Newport, Oregon bottom trawl groundfish fishery is estimated...
