Creator:: Asson, Danielle
Abstract:: Conservation of natural resources has become a new watchword of the scientific community. While many terrestrial ecosystems are well protected, marine ecosystems have only recently come to the forefront. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been introduced as a means of protecting biodiversity, commercial stocks, and ecosystem services. There are many...

Creator:: Chun, Nicole W.
Abstract:: The DIRT (Detrital Input and Removal Treatments) experiment has been the basis for many analyses on carbon and nitrogen dynamics in relation to detrital manipulation. To this day, no other biogeochemical component has been measured in the DIRT sites. In light of this fact, the objective of my research was...

Creator:: Gifford, Jessica
Abstract:: Improvements on the charge control measurements of the torsion pendulum, electron gun, and autocollimator system were conducted at the University of Washington in preparation for the fabrication of the final prototype of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) gravitational wave detector for NASA. One main cause of transient forces on...
