  • Adapting computer science technologies to bridge critical gaps in proposed Tox21 risk assessment programs

    Creator:
    Larkin, Andrew
    Abstract:
    In 2004 the National Toxicology Program published an article describing their intent to pursue toxicology testing and risk assessment practices solely reliant on high throughput in vitro datasets and in silico modeling for dose-response assessments. Support and contributions form regulatory agencies and a significant portion of the life sciences community...

  • Web-PST : Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool

    Creator:
    Manda, Ashwin Prasad
    Abstract:
    We have developed a web-based software tool for evaluating the potential risk of pesticides on the surrounding environment. The software tool is called Web-based Pesticide Screening Tool (Web-PST). It uses the formulas and standards specified by the Soil/Pesticide Interaction Screening Procedure Version II (SPISP II). Web-PST closely models the stand-alone...

  • Chromium (VI) sorption in soils : chemical behavior and solute transport modeling

    Creator:
    Schroth, Martin Herbert
    Abstract:
    Chromium spills on soils are causing severe groundwater contamination problems. To increase the performance of cleanup methods, the chemical behavior of chromium in soils and its transport through soils have to be understood. The objectives of this research were to investigate the sorption characteristics of chromium(VI) in soil and to...

  • Visualization in environmental science

    Creator:
    Winters, Kirsten M.
    Abstract:
    The VISualization of Terrestrial and Aquatic Systems (VISTAS) software development project began with the proposition that visualization would increase the ability of scientists to explore and communicate their data, especially complex datasets that span multiple spatial and temporal scales. A case study of VISTAS articulates how and why scientists intend...
