Abstract:: This thesis deals with target localization using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars. In the field of communications, navigation, radar, and sensing networks, one of the common and most sophisticated problems is target localization. We develop a target localization scheme in distributed MIMO radar systems using bistatic range measurements. The localization approach...

Abstract:: Deficiency of selenium (Se) or alpha-tocopherol (E) creates serious health issues in horses. This study evaluated owner supplementation practices and their efficacy at preventing deficiency in a large population of horses. In addition, common clinical signs of horses presenting to a referral institution who had Se and E testing performed...

Creator:: Duncan-Reid, Jackson
Abstract:: When decision makers work collaboratively, their combined performance can exceed the performance of even the best group member working alone. However, despite the potential for performance gains when working in a group, collaborating individuals often show poor coordination and losses of motivation, and are generally inefficient at combining their resources...

Creator:: Shastry, Suhas
Abstract:: Earthquakes are complicated processes varying in time, space and magnitude. The occurrence of a major earthquake event called mainshock is preceded and followed in time by diminishing seismic activities known as foreshocks and aftershocks respectively. The process of identifying mainshocks, aftershocks, and foreshocks in a given earthquake catalog is known...

Creator:: Axler, Kelia E.
Abstract:: River plumes discharging into continental shelf waters have the potential to influence patchiness of larval fishes, prey, and gelatinous predators. Using a high-resolution plankton imaging system, we sampled larval fishes, copepods, and planktonic predators (ctenophores, hydromedusae, and siphonophores) across multiple freshwater pulses exiting the mouth of Mobile Bay (Alabama, USA)...

Creator:: Bheeroo, Vivek Anand
Abstract:: A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to study the wave field in the inner lagoon excited by ‘long’ incident waves. Three cases were considered: Cases A, B and C presenting incident waves of wavelength with factors of 1, 2 and 2.5 times the width of the reef respectively. The...
