Processing 3D Models of Large Instream Wood for Hydraulics Applications – Structure- from-Motion Workflow Documentation

Creator:: Tutka, Michał
Abstract:: Estimating how large instream wood (LW) may impact local hydraulics is critical both for mitigating flood hazards and for ensuring intended habitat benefits of the LW are produced. In practice, the design of forms such as LW is limited by a lack of mechanistic tools for estimating how LW features...

Error Propagation in Sap Flow Measurements Using the Heat Ratio Method

Creator:: Miller, Jackson T.
Abstract:: Accurate estimation of the amount of water used by trees is important for a variety of agricultural applications. There are several current methodologies for measuring sap flow and water use in trees, however the heat ratio method has been identified as the ideal due to its ability to measure low...

Visualizing Rivers: An Interactive Map of United States Water Sheds

Creator:: Burk, Bailey K.
Abstract:: An interactive map of important watersheds in the United States was created for use as a teaching tool in an estuarine ecology class. Figures and explanations of important factors influencing river ecology were created using data downloaded from the U.S. Geologic Survey. This interface serves as a visualization of biological,...

Project Management and Design of a Modularized Internet of Things (IoT) Prototyping System

Creator:: Inberg, Tyler J.
Abstract:: Project Loom is a system of sensors, actuators, processors, and wireless connectivity chips that the user can pick and choose from in order to create an Internet of Things application that fits their desired needs. The modularity of the system and ease of use allows for the user to create...

Modeling the Influence of Wildfire Management Networks in Social-Ecological Systems

Creator:: Avila, Colton C.
Abstract:: Wildfire management networks allow for collaborative intervention in mitigating the ever-present risk of major wildfire events. This thesis consists of two manuscripts that explore the topology and characteristics of wildfire management networks and their ability to influence wildfire severity in social-ecological systems. The first manuscript focuses on the characteristics of...

Freshwater prokaryotic and eukaryotic diversity of the Oregon Willamette River basin

Creator:: Hoyle, Marilee C.
Abstract:: The wellbeing of the Willamette basin in Oregon depends on the river ecosystem’s microbial communities, which control primary production and the biological processing of nutrients, pollutants, and organic matter. Yet, only a few studies have investigated the diversity of the microbial communities of the Willamette basin. This paper examines how...

Snow Grain Evolution in Forested and Open Regions – Implications for Remote Sensing

Creator:: Weiss, Sydney G.
Abstract:: Snow water equivalent (SWE) is a critical measurement in hydrology and water resources management. Microwave remote sensing can estimate snow water equivalent (SWE). However, the algorithms used to estimate SWE require snow grain size information. Thus, determining snow grain size is pertinent to estimate SWE. Currently, there are several models...

Hacking RFID Tags to Produce Economical Soil Moisture Sensors

Creator:: Stoddard, Brett S.
Abstract:: Currently available soil moisture sensors have intrinsic limitations that limit their adoption by industry. Depending on the technology, these limitations may include high costs, battery requirements, precice manual installation, high cost, and/or constrictive legislation that regulates their use. A passive soil moisture sensing system based around RFID technology would allay...

Evidence for Strengthening Hadley Cells and a Westward Expansion of the Walker Circulation from Assimilation of Paleoclimate Proxy Data

Creator:: Horlick, Kaleb A.
Abstract:: A synthesis of over 2000 paleoclimate proxy records is performed via a data assimilation framework that expands upon previous efforts by implementing a suite of physically-based proxy system models, and which provides the first example of an observationally independent, multi-seasonal (DJFM, JJAS) paleoclimate reanalysis. This methodology is contrasted against previous...

Examination of Immobilized TiO2 Nanoparticle Photocatalytic Treatment of Propylene Glycol with Concentrated Solar Energy

Creator:: Hammervold, Meredith
Abstract:: Airports are required by the Federal Aviation Administration to perform deicing of aircraft pavement during icy conditions. Until recently, there were no discharge controls in place and deicing fluid contaminated nearby water bodies from storm water runoff. EPA regulations now require airports to collect the deicing fluid and meet discharge...
