The Incentivizing Ocean Energy project, completed July 2011 by Robert K. Harmon, studies
methods of bridging the gap between the cost of ocean energy and the price it can command in
the marketplace, especially for early-stage technologies. Robert K. Harmon details strategies to
reduce the cost of ocean energy, gain...
This thesis examines the Schultz Fire as a case study to explain the complex history of fire suppression management in America’s forests, and to gain further understanding of how management practices have affected the increase in fire severity levels and how forests respond to such a disturbance. The thesis objectives...
There are numerous references in the literature concerning
the use of various Arctostaphylos species as medicinal plants.
One of the species, A. uva-ursi, was listed in the United States
official compendia from 1820 until 1946 as a urinary antiseptic.
Many species indigenous to the Pacific Northwest were employed
by the...
The problem of a fixed rectangular structure of unit width in a
train of simple harmonic normally-incident waves is modeled. The solution
allows for variable (1) length and draft of structure, (2) differing
depths in the three (fore, aft, and beneath the structure) distinct
regions, and (3) wave period. The...
