Microscale hydropower, facilities that produce between 1 kW and 1 MW of power,
has the potential to revolutionize modern power production. Unlike conventional large scale
operations, these water supplies can be utilized with little impact on the environment.
Hydropower per unit production can be very affordable compared to other renewable...
I interviewed Jennifer while the Staubs were having a BBQ for their new neighbors. She is a student at OIT in Klamath and home for the summer in Lakeview. She seemed happy to do the interview and was a valuable resource on account of her being the only one I...
This publication consists of a rule set for benthic habitat classification implemented in eCognition (Trimble Navigation Limited). The details of the procedure are described in Parrish et al., 2016: http://www.jcronline.org/doi/abs/10.2112/SI76-017. The input to the classification consists of high-resolution true color orthophotos, seafloor DEMs from topobathymetric lidar, and gridded lidar reflectance...
In order to efficiently reduce toxic loading to the Columbia River basin, sources and pathways need to be identified. Little is known about the toxic loadings coming from wastewater-treatment facilities and stormwater runoff in the system. This study provides preliminary data on these sources and pathways throughout the basin. The...

Phytophthora ramorum, an oomycete plant pathogen, is the causal agent of sudden oak death, a serious disease of Fagaceous trees in California and Oregon over the last decade. Tanoak (Notholithocarpus densiflorus) is one of the most susceptible host species, but the cause of host mortality is poorly understood. Previous research...
The Arctic climate system is changing dramatically as a response to rising atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. Key indicators of Arctic change include thinning and retreating of Arctic pack ice, thawing permafrost, greening tundra, and rising surface temperatures. The structure of the atmospheric boundary layer influences and is influenced by processes...
This project’s first aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of the IMPACT program on undergraduate volunteers’ acceptance and attitude towards working with children with disabilities. The second aim is identifying potential factors effecting the volunteers’ acceptance and attitude towards working with children with disabilities. The IMPACT program serves both as...
The following projects were accomplished between February 1, 1964 and June 30, 1965, under the stream clearance segment of State-wide Stream Improvement. The projects were accomplished by selecting contractors under the procedure of using sealed bids. Smaller projects were completed by Force Account. The heavy equipment used on each project...
The following projects were completed between July 1, 1965, and June 30, 1966, under the stream clearance segment of the State-wide Stream Improvement Program. The larger segments were initiated by requesting competitive bids with the contract for logjam removal awarded to the lowest acceptable bid. The smaller projects were undertaken...
