Slipping into the Dark: Death as a Means of Discovery in Juan Rulfo’s Pedro Páramo and Marilynne Robinson’s Housekeeping

Creator:: Hansen, Sarah Anne
Abstract:: This thesis compares and contrasts Juan Rulfo’s Pedro Páramo and Marilynne Robinson’s Housekeeping to explore how Mexican and American cultures perceive death. By examining the thoughts and actions of the young protagonists through the lens of the uncanny, it becomes obvious that they are searching for a history that has...

Teaching business to the poor : the effectiveness of business development services within microenterprise development

Creator:: Wilson, Taylor Anne
Abstract:: Many economic development methods over the years have tried to solve the problem of poverty with varied success. Microenterprise development is a method that works with the poor to create small self-run businesses to increase their income, and therefore bring more freedom from disease illiteracy and discrimination. Within microenterprise development...

Climate change impacts on mountain snowpack presented in a knowledge to action framework

Creator:: Sproles, Eric A.
Abstract:: Throughout many of the world’s mountain ranges snowpack accumulates during the winter and into the spring, providing a natural reservoir for water. As this reservoir melts, it fills streams and recharges groundwater for over 1 billion people globally. Despite its importance to water resources, our understanding of the storage capacity...

Mapping Wildlife-Relevant Snow Properties in Arctic-Boreal North America; Novel Modelling, Remote-Sensing, and Ground Observation Approaches

Creator:: Cosgrove, Christopher Liam
Abstract:: Arctic-boreal regions are exhibiting the symptoms of profound ecological shifts as they experience pronounced warming. Wildlife in high-latitudes are one such harbinger of change, and their populations are undergoing range-shifts, declines, and extinctions in response to their rapidly altering habitats. As the circumpolar and boreal north is snow-covered for up...

Consideration of Driver Behavior in the Design of Red Light Extension Systems

Creator:: McCrea, Sarah Anne
Abstract:: Red Light Running (RLR) is a safety hazard at signalized intersections in Oregon and throughout the United States. Various methods of mitigating factors contributing to RLR have been implemented but few protect against a conflict when a vehicles runs a red light. Additionally, current prediction algorithms are complicated; there is...

Relationships as infrastructure : understanding student food insecurity and motivating OSU community solutions

Creator:: Calvert, Hunter M.
Abstract:: Food insecurity (FI) is a commonly understood issue in colleges including Oregon State University (OSU), yet examining FI yields deeper complexities of great interest. Food insecurity at OSU is a symptom in a greater complex of basic needs pressures experienced by students in the higher education system, including financial, social,...

Structure of the crust beneath Lake Superior from forward modeling of large aperture seismic data

Creator:: Shay, John T.
Abstract:: Both travel times and amplitudes of large offset refracted and reflected arrivals observed during GLIMPCE (Great Lakes International Multidisciplinary Program on Crustal Evolution) along line A in Lake Superior have been modeled using two-dimensional ray tracing techniques. Forward modeling was used to iteratively refine an initial velocity model that was...

Assessing Petal-cutting bees (Megachile sp.) usage of Clarkia amoena (Onagraceae) petals through the lens of iNaturalist and a Garden Experiment

Creator:: Mead, Mallory
Abstract:: Farewell-to-spring (Clarkia amoena) is native to the Pacific Northwest and commonly found in gardens, due to its aesthetic value and purported benefits to pollinators. Oregon and Washington are home to five subspecies of C. amoena, yet commercially available seed is limited to C. amoena ssp. lindleyi and C. amoena cultivars....

Present-day and future contributions of glacier melt to the Upper Middle Fork Hood River : implications for water management

Creator:: Phillippe, Jeff
Abstract:: Glaciers are effective reservoirs because they moderate variations in runoff and supply reliable flow during drought periods. Thus, there needs to be a clear understanding of the influence of glacier runoff at both the basin and catchment scale. The objectives of this study were to quantify the late summer contributions...

A 3-D Tomographic Model of the P-wave Velocity Structure of the Central Cascadia Forearc

Creator:: Kenyon, Christopher Bradford
Abstract:: Signals from the R/V Langseth’s tuned airgun array were recorded on an array of 33 EarthScope FlexArray seismometers deployed in the Oregon Coast Range from 43.5° to 45°N as part of the 2012 Ridge2Trench experiment to image the structure of the Juan de Fuca plate. This segment of the Juan...
