Abandoning the girl show ghetto : introducing and incorporating care ethics to girls' animation

Creator:: Hughes, Adam C.
Abstract:: In regards to animation created and aimed at them, girls are largely underserved and underrepresented. This underrepresentation leads to decreased socio-cultural capital in adulthood and a feeling of sacrificed childhood. Although there is a common consensus in entertainment toward girls as a potentially deficient audience, philosophy and applied ethics open...

Full Text:: complete contrast between the psychological and ethical studies of Lawrence Kohlberg and Carol Gilligan

Measuring Electron Activity to Constrain the Role of Soil Structure in the Formation of Biogeochemical Heterogeneity

Creator:: Wanzek, Thomas
Abstract:: Soils have a critical role in global carbon (C) cycling, containing one of the largest fast-cycling carbon stocks on earth. Robust representation of soil organic matter dynamics in Earth System Models is critical for future climate prediction. Current C cycling models assume that all C cycling in non-hydric (i.e. ‘upland’)...

Maximizing urban property values through open space conservation

Creator:: Oakley, Winston
Abstract:: This study investigates the share of open space that maximizes total private property values in urban areas. Open space poses a number of trade-offs to city managers. On the one hand, previous studies have shown that certain kinds of open space can increase property values, which tends to increase tax...

Tragedy at Sandy Hook and the National Rifle Association's Propaganda Response

Creator:: Gundlach, Andrew
Abstract:: This research examines the response from the National Rifle Association (NRA) to the tragic shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012. Specifically, the research seeks to conclude whether the NRA engaged in propaganda, and if so, what the ethical implications of such use are. Using literature from...

Geochemical Fingerprinting of Metals from Non-Ferrous Smelting Emissions within Lake Sediments

Creator:: Rutila, Elizabeth C.
Abstract:: The research presented in this thesis seeks to further our understanding of the geochemical signatures that can be used to trace and quantify non-ferrous smelting emission inputs into the environment. Strong evidence suggests that emissions from the non-ferrous smelter in Trail, BC are the primary source of metals deposited from...

Lived Experiences of “Beautiful” Women : A Postmodern Feminist Exploration of Beauty Discourse and Identity

Creator:: Marie, Michelle
Abstract:: While a great deal is known about the benefits of being culturally identified as attractive, very little is known about the lived experiences of beautiful women. In this study, 21 adult women who are currently employed as models or represented by modeling agencies participated in open-ended interviews, and their responses...

Estimating Global ‘‘Blue Carbon’’ Emissions from Conversion and Degradation of Vegetated Coastal Ecosystems

Creator:: Pendleton, Linwood, Donato, Daniel C., Murray, Brian C., Crooks, Stephen, Jenkins, W. Aaron, Sifleet, Samantha, Craft, Christopher, Fourqurean, James W., Kauffman, J. Boone, Marba, Nuria, Megonigal, Patrick, Pidgeon, Emily, Herr, Dorothee, Gordon, David, and Baldera, Alexis
Abstract:: Recent attention has focused on the high rates of annual carbon sequestration in vegetated coastal ecosystems—marshes, mangroves, and seagrasses—that may be lost with habitat destruction (‘conversion’). Relatively unappreciated, however, is that conversion of these coastal ecosystems also impacts very large pools of previously-sequestered carbon. Residing mostly in sediments, this ‘blue...

Developing Global Leaders for Research, Regulation, and Stewardship of Crop Protection Chemistry in the 21st Century

Creator:: Unsworth, John B., Corsi, Camilla, Van Emon, Jeanette M., Farenhorst, Annemieke, Hamilton, Denis J., Howard, Cody J., Hunter, Robert, Jenkins, Jeffrey J., Kleter, Gijs A., Kookana, Rai S., Lalah, Joseph O., Leggett, Michael, Miglioranza, Karina S. B., Miyagawa, Hisashi, Peranginangin, Natalia, Rubin, Baruch, Saha, Bipul, and Shakil, Najam A.
Abstract:: To provide sufficient food and fiber to the increasing global population, the technologies associated with crop protection are growing ever more sophisticated but, at the same time, societal expectations for the safe use of crop protection chemistry tools are also increasing. The goal of this perspective is to highlight the...

Acoustic classification of multiple simultaneous bird species: A multi-instance multi-label approach

Creator:: Briggs, Forrest, Lakshminarayanan, Balaji, Neal, Lawrence, Fern, Xiaoli Z., Raich, Raviv, Hadley, Sarah J. K., Hadley, Adam S., and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Although field-collected recordings typically contain multiple simultaneously vocalizing birds of different species, acoustic species classification in this setting has received little study so far. This work formulates the problem of classifying the set of species present in an audio recording using the multi-instance multi-label (MIML) framework for machine learning, and...

Sex matters: Otolith shape and genomic variation in deacon rockfish (Sebastes diaconus)

Creator:: Vaux, Felix, Rasmuson, Leif K., Kautzi, Lisa A., Rankin, Polly S., Blume, Matthew T. O., Lawrence, Kelly A., Bohn, Sandra, and O'Malley, Kathleen G.
Abstract:: Little is known about intraspecific variation within the deacon rockfish (Sebastes di‐ aconus), a recently described species found in the northeast Pacific Ocean. We in‐ vestigated population structure among fish sampled from two nearshore reefs (Siletz Reef and Seal Rock) and one offshore site (Stonewall Bank) within a <50‐km2 area...
