Physical sources of nutrient nitrogen for the Auke Bay, Alaska
estuarine ecosystem were investigated. These sources included
vertical dispersion, advection, and fresh water sources. Hydrographic
circulation patterns for the bay, and a nutrient budget for
the surface mixed layer were developed.
Measurements of temperature, salinity, currents, wind
velocity, rainfall and...
The 158-year-old Commanding Officer's House at Fort Hoskins is one of only two such structures in Oregon representing the pre-Civil War era on the Western Frontier. From 1856-1861, it embodies a link in history between the prevailing ideology of western expansion and replication of Eastern cultural values into the frontier...
As Europeans settled the Willamette Valley in the 1800s, they began to simplify Oregon's largest river contained wholly within state boarders—the Willamette. The river lost miles of channels from dikes, dams, and development. Some channels vanished under concrete. Others became meander scars, or shallow, dry depression in the land where...

The purpose of this study was to explore relationships between
clothing interest and body awareness, between clothing interest and
selected demographic variables for college men and women, and between
body awareness and selected demographic variables for college men and
women.
To assess these relationships two measures were used. Body
awareness,...
The introduction of non-native species can negatively impact native species through reduced genetic fitness resulting from hybridization. The lack of spatiotemporal data of hybrids occurrences makes assessing hybridization risk difficult. Here, I developed a spatially-explicit GIS Hybridization Risk Model (HRM) between native ESA-listed Bull Trout and introduced Brook Trout by...
The purpose of this study was to determine the viability of a mobile socially assistive robot (SAR) in a children’s free play environment. The researchers hypothesized that the SAR would prompt more movement among the participants. In order to test this, the researchers utilized a matched pair study in which...
Ideal for personal-growth study groups, for staff in business or agency human-resource departments, and for organizations that work on diversity issues. A gentle yet challenging look at ways to change the world by changing one's own intercultural relationships. Discusses differences in communication styles, sense of time and space, and power...
Shallow, translational landslides occur naturally and are the dominant form of erosion in the Pacific Northwest and the Oregon Coast Range. These landslides are triggered during large, infrequent storms. Forest management activities, such as timber harvesting, can exacerbate the occurrence of these landslides. Understanding the relationship between the occurrence of...
Despite more than two centuries of exploration, including more than six million deep wellbores with depths exceeding 40,000 feet in some parts of the world, our ability to constrain subsurface processes and properties remains limited. Characteristics of the subsurface vary and can be analyzed on a variety of spatial scales....
