Aircraft-based in situ measurements of cirrus cloud ice water content (IWC) are
important for cloud microphysical/radiative modeling and satellite validation studies, yet
the measurements have proven challenging due, in part, to the large dynamic range of
IWC values present in cirrus clouds. To date, three instruments designed for the
measurement...
Formation of cirrus clouds depends on the availability of ice nuclei to begin condensation of atmospheric water vapor. Although it is known that only a small fraction of atmospheric aerosols are efficient ice nuclei, the critical ingredients that make those aerosols so effective have not been established. We have determined...

Objective: The goal of this project is to recreate aspects of the article “Comparison between convolutional neural networks and random forest for local climate zone classification in mega urban areas using Landsat images” (Yoo et al., 2019), where methods for predicting LCZ classes for four large cities throughout the world...
This capstone project is presented for the completion of Oregon State University’s (OSU) Master of Natural Resources Program. Water resource reliability in the Pacific Northwest is becoming less dependable, but population and municipal water demand is increasing. The Gales Creek Watershed and its tributary Clear Creek encompass 48,481 acres in...
As Si MOS approaches its maximum limits in speed and bandwidth, new
devices are desired to meet the needs of high speed communications and signal
processing. A device that exhibits superior performance to Si MOS, BJT, and
GaAs technology is the HEMT (high electron mobility transistor).
The HEMT offers superior...
Pacific shrimp (Pandalus jordani) was washed repeatedly and the
eluted bacteria were enumerated and identified. Selected isolates
were tested for their adhesive properties.
Washing reduced the microbial load by 3.84 to 42.04%. The bacteria
which most resisted wash-off were Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas
spp. The easiest to wash off was Flavobacterium...
