Characterization of Stormwater Runoff from a County Maintenance Facility and Evaluation of Temporal Performance of Bioswale in Its Treatment

Creator:: Gyawali, Kshitiz
Abstract:: In the last few decades, a lot of studies have been conducted to study about the quality of stormwater runoff from various sites and conditions. Highways, residential areas, and commercial sites are the focus of most of these studies while limited studies have done examination of stormwater from Maintenance and...

Functional profiles of soil microbial communities in second-growth Douglas-fir forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: McGinnis, Megan L.
Abstract:: Forests are one of the largest repositories of terrestrial C. Understanding factors that drive organic matter transformations and nutrient efflux from these systems is therefore highly important. Temperate forests are of particular significance due to the large fraction of C that is stored below ground in the soil. Characterizing nutrient...

Suitability of diverse composts as soil amendments for highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Costello, Ryan C.
Abstract:: Highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) is adapted to soils with high organic matter and acidic pH. Composts provide organic matter and nutrients for growing blueberry in mineral soils, but many composts are high in pH and soluble salts. Acidification with elemental sulfur (S°) can remedy high pH, but the process...

Comparison of secondary neutron dose from 10 MV intensity modulated radiation therapy and volume modulated arc therapy

Creator:: Catchpole, Mary Elizabeth
Abstract:: Photoneutron contamination produced during high-energy, external beam radiotherapy can contribute to total patient dose. This aspect of unwanted dose is not currently evaluated for patients undergoing radiation therapy. While multiple studies have examined the neutron dose from beams with energies above 10 MeV, research assessing neutron dose from a 10...

What Lies Below: Options to Improve Sustainable Management of U.S./Mexico Transboundary Aquifers

Creator:: Welch, Christina, N.
Abstract:: Globally, as surface water quality and quantity diminishes there is increasing reliance on groundwater to buffer water demands of growing populations. Today in many arid regions around the world aquifer pumping rates far exceed recharge rates. Often the groundwater is nonrenewable, or thousands of years old. Despite the known hydrologic...

Investigation of oxide semiconductor based thin films : deposition, characterization, functionalization, and electronic applications

Creator:: Rajachidambaram, Meena Suhanya
Abstract:: Nanostructured ZnO films were obtained via thermal oxidation of thin films formed with metallic Zn-nanoparticle dispersions. Commercial zinc nanoparticles used for this work were characterized by microscopic and thermal analysis methods to analyze the Zn-ZnO core shell structure, surface morphology and oxidation characteristics. These dispersions were spin-coated on SiO₂/Si substrates...

Evaluation of amorphous oxide semiconductors for thin film transistors (TFTs) and resistive random access memory (RRAM) applications

Creator:: Rajachidambaram, Jaana Saranya
Abstract:: Thin-film transistors (TFTs) are primarily used as a switching element in liquid crystal displays. Currently, amorphous silicon is the dominant TFT technology for displays, but higher performance TFTs will become necessary to enable ultra-definition resolution high-frequency large-area displays. Amorphous zinc tin oxide (ZTO) TFTs were fabricated by RF magnetron sputter...

Oxidation of hydrocarbon in a carbon nanotube supported corona discharge in micoreactor : oxidation of ethylene

Creator:: Alanazi, Yousef M.
Abstract:: Population growth driven sustainability issues, including the food resource issue, are pressing problems in need of attention. The goal of the present thesis is to examine the ability of an electric non-thermal plasma based microreactor to destroy ethylene, a known plant hormone responsible for losses in the range of 20%...

Effects of fiber electrostatic cling and moisture regain on Timothy grass pollen attraction

Creator:: Vaughn, Reyna J.
Abstract:: People will spend a large amount of their lifetime indoors where the air is filled with both indoor and outdoor allergens. Exposure to allergens can have a range of effects on the health of building occupants. Textiles make up a vast majority of the surfaces, such as draperies, sofas, pillows,...

Spatial motion vector recovery in wireless high deﬁnition video transmission using H.264 over WLANs

Creator:: Gatimu, Kevin
Abstract:: Mobile devices are becoming more prevalent and complex. As a result, the wireless communication aspect of these devices is becoming increasingly signiﬁcant. At the same time, video demands in terms of availability and quality are also on the uprise. High deﬁnition (HD) video is the standard of choice for meeting...
