Third order spectra computed from the rotary components of
winds and currents at the TOTEM buoy site off the Oregon coast provide
an insight to the nonlinear, quadratic interactions within and between
these vector fields. The topography of bispectra and cross-bispectra
as displayed on four tri-frequency planes shows that significant...
This is the first of two technical reports derived from the dissertation
by Yao, Neng-Chun titled "Bispectral and Cross-bispectral Analysis
of Winds and Currents off the Oregon Coast. " In this first technical
report we give the theoretical development of the rotary component
approach to the bispectrum and cross-bispectrum among...
The effects of five data processing methods on the accuracy of
geostrophic computations are analyzed using hydrographic data collected
from a set of 24 hour triangular stations off the Oregon coast.
Sources of error are assessed by comparison with an available in
situ Salinity/Temperature/Depth record (STD) trace at a control...

This study was undertaken to investigate the variation in the total sugar and acid content of the frozen Marshall strawberries grown in different areas of the Pacific Northwest. The samples used in this study were collected from different freezing plants located in the states of Oregon and Washington during the...
Vegetatively propagated peppermint (Mentha piperita L., cv. Black Mitcham) was used to determine the effects of night temperatures (8°C vs 25°C) on the plant growth in terms of fresh weight and leaf area, and on metabolite contents. The plants were sampled after 14 days, 21 days and 28 days in...
The synthesis of superheavy element evaporation residues is described by the product of the capture cross section, fusion probability, and survival probability. Capture cross sections are moderately well known. The fusion probability is the least known with many uncertainties. The formalism for the survival probability is known, but the parameters...
This thesis examines the influence of Christian missions on Yung Wing (1828-1912) during the nineteenth century, when China was beginning to encounter the West. Yung was the first Chinese graduate student to enter an American institution of higher education (Yale College, 1854). As a Westernized Christian intellectual, he strove to...
The continuous development of higher performing battery materials has emerged in parallel with the development of new manufacturing processes. Nanomaterials are one solution to addressing the cycling and performance challenges that limit existing battery cells. However, many of the methods used today for nanomaterial synthesis are high temperature batch methods...
