Unraveling the Diagenetic Cycling and Sequestration of Rare Earth Elements (REEs) in Marine Sediments to Understand REE Accumulation in Ancient Shales

Creator:: Yang, Jon
Abstract:: The rare earth elements (REEs) have been established as powerful tracers for a range of physiochemical processes occurring in the natural environment. They also hold significant economic importance as many technological advancements are reliant upon the REEs for their unique magnetic, luminescent, and electrochemical characteristics. In sedimentary settings, understanding the...

Full Text:: REEs for economic extraction. In this dissertation, I attempt to refine our understanding of REE

Mitochondrial decay in the aging rat heart : changes in fatty acid-supported bioenergetics and macromolecular organization of the electron transport system

Creator:: Gómez Ramirez, Luis A.
Abstract:: Decline in cardiac pump function is a hallmark of aging where mitochondrial decay is an important underlying cause. Although certainly multifactorial in nature, both dysfunction of the machinery involved in the chemiosmotic process of energy transduction and lower capacity to maintain fatty acid-driven respiration are identified as intrinsic factors of...

Temperature Evolution of Spark Kernels in Quiescent and Cross-flow Conditions

Creator:: Okhovat, Sebastian
Abstract:: Numerous physical and chemical processes are required for successful ignition of a flammable mixture, many of which have been well characterized. However, one aspect of the ignition process that has received limited consideration is understanding the temperature of the spark kernel. A spark kernel is the volume of heated gas...

Quantification of Reactor Kinetics Parameters during Reactor Transients using Cherenkov Light and Auxiliary Application to Nuclear Safeguards

Creator:: Holschuh, Thomas V.
Abstract:: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is the leading organization for monitoring nuclear facilities worldwide, and the Agency’s methods are constantly developing and improving in an effort to more effectively safeguard nuclear material. As such, the IAEA addresses near and long term risks in order to advance the capabilities of...

Canine LH Receptors Expression in Non-neoplastic and Neoplastic Tissues

Creator:: Zwida, Khawla
Abstract:: Throughout most of the developed world, surgical sterilization via gonadectomy has become a common tool for combating the overpopulation of unwanted dogs as well as to eliminate the risk of reproductive diseases in pet dogs. In the dog as in other normal adult mammal, the hypothalamus secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH),...

Embryonic and Larval Zebrafish Bioassays for Biomedical Research : The Larval Photomotor Response Screening Assay and Phenotype

Creator:: Fisher, Joseph A.
Abstract:: Laboratories around the world are using the zebrafish model for biomedical research and conducting investigations using morphological, physiological, behavioral, and genomic endpoints. All assays provide information, but physiological and behavioral endpoints or phenotypes are a fast way to understand how an animal is responding to its environment. We investigate the...

Design, fabrication, and characterization of the laser-imaged natural circulation (LINC) facility

Creator:: Goodrich, Sam S.
Abstract:: Currently there is a great amount of interest in the phenomena of natural circulation as a cooling mechanism for normal operation as well as emergency conditions in nuclear reactors and spent fuel pools. In order to better understand this phenomena for the specific geometry of vertical, heated rods in water,...

The proteomic and transcriptomic responses to iron, sulfur, and nitrogen limitation in the abundant marine bacterium Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique

Creator:: Smith, Daniel P.
Abstract:: Batch cultures of Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique were grown under iron-, organosulfur-, and nitrogen-limiting conditions to understand how this ubiquitous marine bacterium responds to and interacts with environments where growth is limited by the availability of these nutrients. Global gene expression was monitored using microarrays and quantitative mass spectrometry to observe...

Environmental Mixtures and Selected Health Outcomes in the US Population

Creator:: Przybyla, Jennifer
Abstract:: The human health effects of exposure to numerous single environmental contaminants have been well characterized. Yet, biomonitoring studies have detected multiple environmental chemicals in humans, highlighting the need to investigate the health effects of exposure to multiple environmental chemicals. Environmental data is highly complex, therefore current methods of defining environmental...

Natural Convection Heat Transfer and Boundary Layer Transition for Vertical Heated Cylinders

Creator:: Goodrich, Sam S.
Abstract:: In recent years, the global nuclear industry has placed a greater emphasis on passively safe reactor designs. In particular, much attention and design work has been applied to engineered systems for passive cooling of nuclear fuel, whether it be loaded in a core or stored in spent fuel pools. The...
