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...

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...

Microbial Community Composition as a Driver of Chemical Composition Change in Streams and Wastewater

Creator:: Mahadwar, Gouri
Abstract:: Microbial communities in aquatic systems are dominant drivers of chemical transformation, including contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). This study quantified shifts in microbial communities and their relationship to shifts in chemical composition in surface waters in the Willamette Valley, Oregon. In addition to bulk chemical composition shifts, the relationship between...

Bioaugmentation of Pure and Enriched Cultures Fed Multiple Primary Substrates to Aerobically Cometabolize a Mixture of Chlorinated Solvents and 1,4-dioxane in Microcosms Containing Groundwater from a Department of Defense Site

Creator:: Laurance, Jon C.
Abstract:: Chlorinated solvents are common groundwater pollutants that often exist as mixtures resulting from the use of multiple solvents and their transformation into chlorinated daughter products. These sites are often co-contaminated with the solvent stabilizer 1,4-dioxane (1,4-D), which is not treated by traditional chlorinated solvent remediation techniques. Both 1,4-D and chlorinated...

Environmental Impacts of Renewable Energy (solar and wind) on Water, Food and Energy Nexus

Creator:: Hassanpour Adeh, Elnaz
Abstract:: Rapid increasing of renewable energies and the knowledge about their environmental effects are very limited. As a result, the renewable energies (e.g. solar or wind energies) will play a vital role in the future because it is well accepted by environmental friendly industries. This dissertation presents the modeling, data analysis...

Novel System Design and Operational Strategies for the Production of Biofuels and Bioproducts

Creator:: Kadhum, Haider J.
Abstract:: Enzymatic hydrolysis is a critical process in the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels and biochemicals. Achieving high efficiencies and productivity during the enzymatic hydrolysis of biomass is the key for the commercially viable process. Downstream processing challenges require high product titers which in turn require the use of high...

Characterizing Sediment Flux in Headwaters of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Rose, Erik W.
Abstract:: Abstract Valleys of headwater channels in the Oregon Coast Range impound significant amounts of sediment, with the majority of deposits originating as debris flows. Headwater valleys function as transitional sedimentary reservoirs linking hillslope sources in active orogens to sinks in sedimentary basins, yet the residence time of deposits in the...

Hyperspectral Disease Detection - Strategies Addressing Time, Space, Machine Learning, and Plant Susceptibility

Creator:: Haagsma, Marja
Abstract:: Finding trees and crops that are resistant to pathogens is key in preparing for current and future disease threats. In this dissertation, we analyzed the potential of using hyperspectral imaging (HSI) to find infection while identifying issues and strategies addressing differences over time, in spatial resolution, the application of machine...
