Evaluating WRF-Chem aerosol indirect effects in Southeast Pacific marine stratocumulus during VOCALS-REx

Creator:: Saide, P. E., Spak, S. N., Carmichael, G. R., Mena-Carrasco, M. A., Yang, Q., Howell, S., Leon, D. C., Snider, J. R., Bandy, A. R., Collett, J. L., Benedict, K. B., de Szoeke, Simon P., Hawkins, L. N., Allen, G., Crawford, I., Crosier, J., and Springston, S. R.
Abstract:: We evaluate a regional-scale simulation with the WRF-Chem model for the VAMOS (Variability of the American Monsoon Systems) Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx), which sampled the Southeast Pacific's persistent stratocumulus deck. Evaluation of VOCALS-REx ship-based and three aircraft observations focuses on analyzing how aerosol loading affects marine boundary layer (MBL)...

Dielectric and polarization experiments in high loss dielectrics: A word of caution

Creator:: Maglione, M. and Subramanian, M. A.
Abstract:: The recent quest for improved functional materials like high permittivity dielectrics and/or multiferroics has triggered an intense wave of research. Many materials have been checked for their dielectric permittivity or their polarization state. In this report, we call for caution when samples are simultaneously displaying an insulating behavior and a...

Epidemic Clostridium difficile Ribotype 027 in Chile

Creator:: Hernandez-Rocha, Cristian, Barra-Carrasco, Jonathan, Pizarro-Guajardo, Marjorie, Ibanez, Patricio, Bueno, Susan M., Sarker, Mahfuzur R., Maria Guzman, Ana, Alvarez-Lobos, Manuel, and Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: The increased severity of Clostridium difficile infection is primarily attributed to the appearance of an epidemic strain characterized as PCR ribotype 027. The only report that identified epidemic C. difficile ribotype 027 in an American country outside of North America comes from Costa Rica, raising the possibility that strains 027...

Effects of MCNP Model Resolution on Predicting Water Equivalent Thickness of Nanocomposite Materials in High-Energy Proton Fields

Creator:: Freilich, Justina A. M.
Abstract:: Manned missions beyond low-Earth orbit present tremendous, multifaceted radiological challenges. The deep space radiation environment contains high-energy protons and heavy ions, which are not sufficiently shielded by the aluminum alloys that have historically been used in spacecraft. To address these shielding concerns, polymer-based nanocomposites have been proposed. Radiation transport simulations...

Globalization of water resources : examining social learning using serious gaming

Creator:: Taha, Fatima A. M.
Abstract:: This study examined the Water Footprint Computer Assisted Board Game (WFCABG) as a tool for enhancing the social learning of water resources issues surrounding commodities trade. The study engaged 73 students from various countries and professional backgrounds, in two academic settings in two different countries: Oregon State University (United States)...

From germplasm development to variety release : the Oregon State University food barley experience

Creator:: Meints, Brigid M. A.
Abstract:: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the oldest known domesticated crops. Originally cultivated for human consumption, other end-uses have gained importance over the millennia. Barley is the fourth most important cereal crop in the world (FAO-STAT, 2011), and today it is mainly used as animal feed or malted for...

Resistance in snap beans, Phaseolus vulgaris L., to adult western spotted cucumber beetle, Diabrotica u. indecimpunctata Mann

Creator:: Eltoum, Elameen M. A.
Abstract:: Studies to evaluate resistance in snap beans, Phaseolus vulgaris L. to adult western spotted cucumber beetles, Diabrotica u. undecimpunctata Mann. were conducted in greenhouse cages, field cages, field plots, and in temperature controlled cabinet in the laboratory. Results showed that there were differences in susceptibility to adult feeding injury between...

Establishment of grass seed crops with cereal companion crops

Creator:: DeHaas, Jeroen A. M.
Abstract:: In conventional cropping systems in the Willamette Valley, slow establishing grass species, such as Kentucky bluegrass (Poapratensis L.) are planted in the spring and seed is not harvested until the following year. Due to increasing annual production costs, it is necessary to generate a cash return from each field each...
