  • Power and participation in urban planning : an ethnographic case study of Curitiba, Brazil

    Creator:
    Piel, Eric W.
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines the concepts of power and participation and how they are intertwined in the examination of the urban planning systems in Curitiba, Brazil. Power is identified as both the planning system's ability to affect the daily lives of the city's residents and the power of individuals and groups...

  • “Just” Words?

    Creator:
    Lieberman, Aaron W.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to engage in a linguistic-conceptual inquiry into what it proposes might for analytical purposes be conceived—and which it hence stipulatively defines—as Applied Value Words. After constructing the conceptual framework through which to identify, and within which to characterize Applied Value Words, this thesis then...

  • Intentions of US forestland owners to participate in emerging carbon markets : a behavioral modeling approach

    Creator:
    Thompson, Derek W.
    Abstract:
    Policy makers in the United States (US), following recommendations made by the international scientific community, have drafted national emissions reduction legislation in hopes of minimizing the harmful effects of global climate change. Included in this legislation is a national cap-and-trade system with provisions for carbon offsets. Specific provisions for forest...

  • Buoy and satellite observation of wind induced surface heat exchange in the intraseasonal oscillation over West Pacific and Indian Ocean

    Creator:
    Araligidad, Nilesh
    Abstract:
    The importance of wind-driven latent heat fluxes for supporting tropical intraseasonal precipitation variability is analyzed. Tropical intraseasonal variability in the west pacific and Indian ocean is analyzed for northern and southern hemisphere summer during 1999-2005 using satellite and buoy observations. A composite analysis of QuikSCAT ocean vector winds and TRMM...

  • Variational Satisfiability Solving

    Creator:
    Young, Jeffrey M.
    Abstract:
    Over the last two decades, satisfiability and satisfiability-modulo theory (SAT/SMT) solvers have grown powerful enough to be general purpose reasoning engines throughout software engineering and computer science. However, most practical use cases of SAT/SMT solvers require not just solving a single SAT/SMT problem, but solving sets of related SAT/SMT problems....

  • Late Pleistocene Slip Rate along the Panamint Valley Fault System, Eastern California

    Creator:
    Choi, Na Hyung
    Abstract:
    The Eastern California Shear Zone (ECSZ) is a broad zone of dextral shear inboard of the North American - Pacific plate boundary. Despite decades of study, the significance of a mismatch between geodetic velocities and geologic fault slip rates across the ECSZ remains incompletely understood. Geodetically determined interseismic strain across...

  • A modeling study of katabatic flows

    Creator:
    Smith, Craig M.
    Abstract:
    A modeling study is undertaken to better understand the physics of katabatic flows. This study is divided into three topics; a comparison between a large eddy simulation (LES) and a mesoscale model of katabatic flows, a sensitivity study of katabatic flows to various physical parameters, and an investigation into the...

  • Geomorphic Evidence for Differential Rock Uplift Across the Southern Cascadia Forearc

    Creator:
    von Dassow, Wesley
    Abstract:
    The nature of upper plate deformation along the Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) is poorly understood. Systematic covariation among topographic relief, geodetically determined uplift rates, decadal to millennial erosion rates, and the frequency of episodic tremor and slip (ETS) along the Cascadia forearc suggest a genetic association between forearc topography and...
