Bioretention is a common form of green stormwater infrastructure that is used to attenuate peak flows from urban stormwater. Previous research shows that the bioretention peak response is not consistent across time or space and that the variables that affect peak hydrology are numerous. One variable that has not been...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the change in perception
of the university environment that occurred in students who
participated in two forms of university governance at Oregon State
University. Students who participated as members of joint student-faculty
committees (university committees) were compared with members
of all-student committees....
Oregon's twenty-two smaller port districts have the means to
undertake a variety of community development goals. The activities of
these public bodies extend beyond facilitating maritime commerce and
harbor improvement. A primary responsibility, exemplified by a brief
look at the evolution and contemporary authority of ports in Oregon, is

Climate variations within the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME) have impacts on marine fish populations. It is proposed that these impacts will be reflected in recreational fishing catches which is explored in this study. A Pearson correlation analysis compares data from El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events and upwelling...
This project was a continuation of work started by Mark Ingman after he was bothered by the amount of plastic sheeting used in agriculture in China. He was determined to develop an alternative to this environmentally destructive use of plastic by farmers. The plastic “mulch” is used to prevent weeds...

Management strategies to prevent overfishing while achieving optimum yield vary according to the available data and life history of the fished stock. I evaluated two sets of management strategies for Pacific coast rockfish: strategies to set harvest limits for data-poor stocks, and strategies intended to protect the age structure of...
