Zero kinetic energy photoelectron spectroscopy of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons

Creator:: Zhang, Jie
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I present electronic spectra of a few polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs): tetracene, pentacene, pyrene, benzo[g,h,i]perylene and benzo[a]pyrene using resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) and zero kinetic energy (ZEKE) photoelectron spectroscopy. The work of tetracene and pentacene also combine a laser desorption source with a ZEKE spectrometer, demonstrating...

Resilience and adaptability of transboundary rivers : the principle of equitable distribution of benefits and the institutional capacity of the Nile Basin

Creator:: Iyob, Biniam
Abstract:: Biophysical, socioeconomic and geopolitical pressures from population growth and economic development are leading to an increase in tensions regarding the sharing of water within transboundary basins. Transboundary basins are surface rivers and groundwater resources that are shared among sovereign nations and autonomous regions. This dissertation focuses on surface water in...

Light detection and ranging (LiDAR) : what we can and cannot see in the forest for the trees

Creator:: Edson, Curtis B.
Abstract:: Recently concerns over anthropogenic carbon pollution have received increased global attention and research in forest biomass and carbon sequestration has gained momentum. Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) remote sensing has in the last decade demonstrated forest measurement and biomass estimation potential. The project objective was to compare LiDAR forest biomass...

Understanding environmentalism in six Asian countries : an analysis of the world values survey

Creator:: Choi, Eugene
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on a central question for six countries in Asia: what factors affect environmentalism? Numerous studies have proposed mixed theoretical explanations for the relationship between diverse values and beliefs regarding environmentalism. Although these diverse studies propose theories for the fast-growing and multifaceted environmentalism in Asia, here it is...

Alkali-silica reaction in concrete containing recycled concrete aggregates

Creator:: Adams, Matthew P.
Abstract:: Using recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) as a replacement for natural aggregate in new concrete is a promising way to increase the overall sustainability of new concrete. This has been hindered, however, by a general perception that RCA is a sub-standard material due to the lack of technical guidance, specifically related...

Genetic Diversity and Population Parameters of Sea Otters, Enhydra lutris, before Fur Trade Extirpation from 1741–1911

Creator:: Larson, Shawn, Jameson, Ron, Etnier, Michael, Jones, Terry, and Hall, Roberta
Abstract:: All existing sea otter, Enhydra lutris, populations have suffered at least one historic population bottleneck stemming from the fur trade extirpations of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. We examined genetic variation, gene flow, and population structure at five microsatellite loci in samples from five pre-fur trade populations throughout the sea...

Cost Effective Conceptual Design for Semantic Annotation (Extended Version)

Creator:: Termehchy, Arash, Vakilian, Ali, Yodsawalai, Chodpathumwan, and Winslett, Marianne
Abstract:: It is well established that annotating occurrences of entities in a collection of unstructured or semi-structured text documents with their concepts (i.e. entity sets), called semantic annotation, improves the effectiveness of answers to users’ queries. However, an enterprise has to spend large amount of financial, computational, and human resources to...

The density signature

Creator:: Migler-VonDollen, Theresa
Abstract:: In real networks, identifying dense regions is of great importance. For example, in a network that represents academic collaboration, authors within the densest component of the graph tend to be the most prolific. Dense subgraphs often identify communities in social networks. And dense subgraphs can be used to discover regulatory...

High hydrostatic pressure-induced inactivation of bacterial spores

Creator:: Sarker, Mahfuzur R., Akhtar, Saeed, Torres, J. Antonio, and Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: High hydrostatic pressure (HHP) is the most-widely adopted novel non-thermal technology for the commercial pasteurization of foods. However, HHP-induced inactivation of bacterial spores remains a challenge due their resistance to the treatment limits of currently available industrial HHP units (i.e., ~650 MPa and 50°C). Several reports have demonstrated that high...

High Pressure Effects on the Activities of Cathepsins B and D of Mackerel and Horse Mackerel Muscle

Creator:: Fidalgo, Liliana, Saraiva, Jorge A., Aubourg, Santiago P., Vázquez, Manuel, and Torres, Antonio
Abstract:: This work sought to determine high pressure processing (HPP) effects on the activity of cathepsins B and D in the muscle of mackerel (Scomber scombrus) and horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus). In mackerel, the cathepsin B activity decrease reached 40% at 450 MPa while in horse mackerel, low and intermediate pressures...
