Revealing Ultrafast Dynamics and Functional Basis of Potential Biomedical Tools from Calcium Sensing to Optogenetics

Creator:: Tachibana, Sean R.
Abstract:: Photoactivated biomedical tools like fluorescent biosensors and optogenetic proteins have increased in popularity due to the precision targeting and activation used for in vivo applications. In nature, the initially discovered parent proteins exhibit properties such as fluorescence quantum yield (FQY), fluorescence color, and photoswitching dynamics that are unfavorable in mammalian...

PattonJasonR2014_envelope.pdf

Creator:: Patton, Jason Robert
Abstract:: Subduction zone earthquake and tsunami hazards affect tens of millions worldwide and the recurrence of these disasters can be evaluated with paleoseismic techniques, because earthquake cycles (and their supercycles) typically span many millennia. In these three chapters, I discuss a suite of analyses I use to evaluate the sedimentary record...

Crustacean and aquatic insect assemblages in the Mediterranean coastal ecosystems of Emporda wetlands (NE Iberian peninsula)

Creator:: Martinoy, Monica, Boix, Dani, Sala, Jordi, Gascon, Stephanie, Gifre, Jaume, Argerich, Alba, de la Barrera, Ricard, Brucet, Sandra, Badosa, Anna, Lopez-Flores, Rocio, Mendez, Montserrat, Utge, Josep Maria, and Quintana, Xavier D.
Abstract:: Coastal wetlands are characterized by high biodiversity, which is one of the main criteria considered when establishing protection policies or when proposing adequate management actions. In this study, the crustacean and aquatic insect composition of the Emporda wetlands is described. These two faunal groups contribute highly to the total biodiversity...

Quantitative trait loci mapping of yield, its related traits, and spike morphology factors in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Gaynor, Robert C.
Abstract:: Increasing grain yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a challenging task, because yield is a complex trait controlled by many genes and highly influenced by environmental factors. The genetic control of yield components and other traits associated with yield may be less complex and thus more manageable for breeding....

The effects of extractives and compatibilizers on the flexural properties of natural fiber-thermoplastic composites

Creator:: Saputra, Hartono A.
Abstract:: Natural fibers such as wood, flax, and hemp are frequently used as fillers in natural fiber-plastic composites (NFPCs). At present, wood fiber is the most commonly used filler in the production of wood-plastic composites (WPCs). The advantages of these fibers compared to conventional inorganic fibers such as glass fiber is...

Centrifuge Modeling of Soil Response to Tsunami-like Rapid Flooding and the Subsequent Drawdown

Creator:: Exton, Margaret C.
Abstract:: Soil instability from tsunami hazards causes substantial damage to coastal infrastructure (e.g., the damage caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Tsunami, or the Heisei Tsunami). Tsunamis are unpredictable, so it is difficult to obtain field-scale measurements. Simulating tsunamis in a laboratory setting is therefore important to further understanding of...

Thermal optimality of net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide and underlying mechanisms

Creator:: Niu, Shuli, Luo, Yiqi, Fei, Shenfeng, Yuan, Wenping, Schimel, David, Law, Beverly E., Ammann, Christof, Arain, M.

Abstract:: It is well established that individual organisms can acclimate and adapt to temperature to optimize their functioning. However, thermal optimization of ecosystems, as an assemblage of organisms, has not been examined at broad spatial and temporal scales. Here, we compiled data from 169 globally distributed sites of eddy covariance and...

Modeling multidisciplinary design with multiagent learning

Creator:: Hulse, Daniel, Tumer, Kagan, Hoyle, Christopher, and Tumer, Irem
Abstract:: Complex engineered systems design is a collaborative activity. To design a system, experts from the relevant disciplines must work together to create the best overall system from their individual components. This situation is analogous to a multiagent system in which agents solve individual parts of a larger problem in a...

Electronic Stability of Metal Halide Perovskites

Creator:: Hong, Min Ji
Abstract:: Despite near unanimous opinion on the consequences of climate change by scientific community, the rate at which carbon is emitted into the atmosphere continues to increase. The need for a clean and sustainable source of energy is therefore one of humankind's most urgent challenges. Solar energy is the most abundant...

A Full-Scale Experimental Investigation of the Bearing Performance of Aggregate Pier-Supported Shallow Foundations

Creator:: Martin, John P.
Abstract:: Aggregate piers have been used for centuries, with increasing occurrence in the last few decades. Their usage has been driven by land development demand and enabled through equipment and engineering improvements. Understanding the principles controlling bearing capacities and serviceability performance has been an ongoing area of interest for structures supported...
