Preliminary planning of forest roads using ARC GRID

Creator:: Xu, Shenglin
Abstract:: Forest road planning is importaht in logging operations, because it can affect feasibility and cost of forest operations. Due to rapid advances in computer hardware, GIS software, and remote sensing techniques, computer forest road planning models using GIS are becoming practical. DEM data at 30 meter resolution are common and...

Critique of seven helicopter timber sales with recommendations for improved planning

Creator:: Petaisto, Inga T.
Abstract:: The focus of this study centers around the economic, technical, and environmental effects analysis of seven helicopter timber sales on four different national forests in Oregon and Washington. This paper is a constructive critique of these seven sales based on the author's personal observations and data collected from planning documents,...

Feasibility Study of a Thermal Spectrum Thorium Breeder Reactor Without Chemical Reprocessing

Creator:: Keppen, Jackson D.
Abstract:: This thesis presents a feasibility study of a thorium fueled thermal spectrum breeder-burner reactor that operates without chemical reprocessing. Materials were evaluated for their potential as moderators using standard analytical methods. These materials were then used as moderators to evaluate criticality and enrichment in an infinite fuel pin lattice. The...

Structure-forming benthic invertebrates : habitat distributions on the continental margin of Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Strom, Natalie A.
Abstract:: Structure-forming invertebrates belong to a polyphyletic group of primarily sessile and sedentary megafauna that can significantly enhance the complexity of physical habitats. A number of these organisms, including cold-water corals and sponges, are known to be slow growing and vulnerable to physical disturbance. In addition, as filter feeders, these invertebrates...

Monitoring and Evaluating the Susceptibility of Colorado Potato Beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say, against Insecticides in the Columbia Basin of Northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Yang, Pahoua
Abstract:: Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is among one of the largest and most important staple food crops in the world. One of the most productive growing potato regions is the USA is the Oregon and Washington Columbia Basin. Both states produce approximately 26% of the USA potatoes in the market. In...

Proof of concept of the use of RAVEN and RELAP5-3D for risk informed safety margin characterization

Creator:: Riley, Thomas H.
Abstract:: This project was a proof of concept of the use of the RAVEN software, a tool developed for the Risk Informed Safety Margin Characterization (RISMC) approach, with RELAP5-3D. This novel approach combines older probabilistic and mechanistic approaches to look at how and why the complex systems of a nuclear power...

Testing the ArcGIS Marine Data Model : busing spatial information to examine habitat utilization patterns of reef fish along the west coast of Hawaii

Creator:: Aaby, Alyssa Anne
Abstract:: In response to anthropogenic pressures that have degraded habitat and put marine resources at risk (Leslie et al., 2003; Mumby et al., 2001; Puniwai et al., 2003), there has been a growing interest in the use of marine protected areas (MPAs) as a management tool to help slow, prevent or...

Multi-Scale, Multi-Physics Reactor Pulse Simulation Method with Macroscopic and Microscopic Feedback Effects

Creator:: Zabriskie, Adam X.
Abstract:: The Transient Reactor Test facility (TREAT) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is a unique reactor capable of stressing test fuel during a power pulse transient. TREAT fuel is composed of high enriched uranium (HEU) heterogeneous fuel; microscopic UO₂ fuel grains with an average radius of 10 μm are randomly distributed...

Trade-offs in a pathogen-rich world : genetic and maternal drivers of variation in costly resistance and immunity in African buffalo (Syncerus caffer)

Creator:: Tavalire, Hannah F.
Abstract:: Disease acts as a powerful selective force in natural systems, driving the rapid evolution of resistance in the host. In the face of a myriad of pathogenic challenges in natural systems, hosts must balance the energetic needs of maintenance and reproduction with costly resistance mechanisms. In this dissertation I will...
