  • A Ross-Macdonald Model with Vector Demography

    Creator:
    Reyes Grimaldo, Ricardo Noe Gerardo
    Abstract:
    Malaria is a vector-borne disease that has affected humans and other animals for a long time and which has shown high prevalence among different populations. During the beginning of the 20th century, Sir Ronald Ross and George Macdonald developed a model that represents the spread of malaria through the interaction...

  • The Association Between Motor Skills and Challenging Behaviours in Young Children with Developmental Disabilities

    Creator:
    Stinson, Jodi D.
    Abstract:
    Children with developmental disabilities (DDs) have been observed to have delays in motor skills compared to their age-matched peers without disabilities. Empirical research suggests that children with motor skill delays experience more internalizing and externalizing behaviours and that early motor skill difficulties may be an important indicator of future increases...

    Abstract:
    This research considers the availability of the appropriate geospatial data in support of vulnerability mapping of the Oregon coast. An online experiment, Voicing Climate Concerns, was developed to give community stakeholders, researchers and other interested parties the opportunity to voice their concerns on climate change and their perceived vulnerability to...

  • The role of scientific thinking in environmental policy decisions

    Creator:
    Nelson, Jerry Kelvin
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this study was to analyze the individual reasoning of 24 adults as they made decisions for two communities regarding municipal wastewater treatment. The two western Oregon communities were both responding to notices from governmental agencies of higher environmental standards for the purification of wastewater before it could...

  • Differential Diffusion in Breaking Kelvin–Helmholtz Billows

    Creator:
    Smyth, W. D., Nash, J. D., and Moum, J. N.
    Abstract:
    Direct numerical simulations are used to compare turbulent diffusivities of heat and salt during the growth and collapse of Kelvin–Helmholtz billows. The ratio of diffusivities is obtained as a function of buoyancy Reynolds number Re[subscript]b and of the density ratio R[subscript]ρ (the ratio of the contributions of heat and salt...

  • Ocean Mixing by Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability

    Creator:
    Smyth, William D. and Moum, James N.
    Abstract:
    Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability, characterized by the distinctive finite-amplitude billows it generates, is an important mechanism in the development of turbulence in the stratified interior of the ocean. In particular, it is often assumed that the onset of turbulence in internal waves begins in this way. Clear recognition of the importance...

  • On Kelvin Waves in Balance Models

    Creator:
    Allen, J. S., Gent, Peter R., and Holm, Darryl D.
    Abstract:
    The f-plane linear shallow-water equations support coastal Kelvin waves. These waves propagate along the coast and have zero velocity normal to the coast. It is shown that the balance equations also support coastal Kelvin waves, but these waves differ depending upon the boundary conditions imposed. Three different boundary conditions and...
