Wines were made from Pinot Noir and White Riesling grapes
which had received field application rates of 2 and 4 lb./acre of the
experimental bird repellent Mesurol (methiocarb or 3, 5 dimethyl-
4(methylthio)phenylmethylcarbamate). In addition, Pinot Noir must
and press juice and White Riesling press juice were fortified with
15...
The fragmentation characteristics of protonated peptides have been investigated using
tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) under various fragmentation regimes and detailed
density functional theory (DFT) reaction pathway calculations. The DFT calculations
predict novel salt-bridge stabilized transition structures as well as consecutive reactions
occurring in proton-bound dimers for some of the ions...

The ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) phenomenon serves as a sensitive probe of the effective internal fields in a magnetic material. FMR spectroscopy has consequently become a well-established technique, extensively employed in assessing material properties such as magnetic anisotropy, Landé g-factor, damping parameter, and the magnetoelastic constants of magnetic materials. Determining these...
Soil solution samplers have certain inadequacies that limit their range of
possible applications. Passive Capillary Samplers (PCAPS), which apply suction to the
soil pore-water via a fiber glass wick, have shown promising results in preliminary
experiments in regard to collection efficiency of water and of bromide tracers. The
objectives of...
This thesis investigates the effects of wave energy converters (WECs) on water waves through the analysis of extensive laboratory experiments, as well as subsequent numerical simulations. Data for the analysis was collected during the WEC-Array Experiments performed at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory at Oregon State University, under co-operation...
In transboundary water resources policy and management situations, such as the governance of the Columbia River Basin, complex social, ecological, and economic factors seem to be in irreconcilable competition with one another. However, cooperative negotiation provides an outlet for entities and stakeholders to "expand the pie" and develop creative alternatives...
