The geochemical partitioning and bioavailability of trace metals in marine sediments

Creator:: Oakley, Stewart M.
Abstract:: Trace metals in the aquatic environment are generally concentrated on the surface of solid geochemical phases which eventually become incorporated into estuarine and marine sediments. The mechanism of trace metal concentration is believed to be adsorption with various geochemical phases such as hydrous metal oxides, clays, and organic matter. Metals...

Treatment of activated sludge process effluent by carbon adsorption

Creator:: Davis, Stewart Lee
Abstract:: An evaluation of the service time of an activated carbon adsorption column and the organic carbon removal efficiency treating activated sludge process effluent was completed at aerator detention times of three, five, and ten hours. Parameters used for evaluation of treatment were biochemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total organic...

The control and fate of enteric bacteria in the environment with particular emphasis on the factors influencing fecal indicator survival in waste storage facilities

Creator:: Crane, Stuart R.
Abstract:: The indiscriminate release of fecal bacteria to the environment can present a public health hazard when pathogenic species gain access to drinking and recreational water sources. The extent of bacterial contamination of surface and ground waters associated with animal production units and waste application areas seems largely dependent on the...

A model for simulating river and reservoir temperatures with applications for anadromous fish management

Creator:: Currie, James William
Abstract:: A problem confronting the Corps of Engineers and other water resources planners in the Pacific Northwest is the prediction of anadromous fish enhancement benefits that would result from a proposed high dam project. These benefits are expected from augmenting natural streamflows with relatively cold reservoir withdrawals. The resulting increased streamflows...

Radar and Optical Remote Sensing of Submesoscale Frontal Features

Creator:: Simpson, Alexandra J.
Abstract:: The coastal region is home to many types of surface fronts that exist on a submesoscale (1-10 $km$). While in situ observations capture point or transect observations of frontal behavior subsurface, their complex spatial patterns can be well-captured using remote sensing techniques, which provide synoptic views of the ocean surface...

Quantifying the Relative Role of the Key Drivers of Coastal Dune Evolution: Observations and Simulations Across a Range of Time and Space Scales in Cape Lookout National Seashore, North Carolina

Creator:: Hovenga, Paige A.
Abstract:: Coastal dunes provide a diverse set of ecosystem services including coastal protection against destructive surge and waves during storm events. Dunes are constantly evolving through various stages of response to storm events and post-storm recovery at rates that vary due to a range of drivers including pre-existing morphology, environmental forcing...

Evaluation and application of ice segregation parameters for frost heave prediction

Creator:: Ito, Yuzuru, 1958-
Abstract:: The success of civil engineering construction in cold regions often depends on the assessment of the potential for frost heave. Over the past two decades two models have been presented to the engineering community to identify the frost heave potential, namely: (1) the segregation potential (SP), and (2) the discrete...

Dynamic behavior of silty soils

Creator:: Sunitsakul, Jutha
Abstract:: The cyclic resistance of predominantly fine-grained soils has received considerable attention following ground and foundation failures at sites underlain by silt-rich soils during recent earthquakes. In several cases substantial ground deformation and reduced bearing capacity of silt soils has been attributed to excess pore pressure generation during cyclic loading. These...

A torsional investigation of a concrete I grider

Creator:: Martin, Roy Charles
Abstract:: This paper investigates a particular bridge construction technique which could result in a significant torsional moment. The structural member under consideration is a prestressed concrete girder for which no torsional consideration is made. Torsional shear stresses can be adequately approximated for an I-shaped girder. Laboratory model tests were performed to...

Fate of ammonia volatilized from a confinement livestock facility

Creator:: Hoffman, Eldon Randall
Abstract:: A conceptual model was developed to further the understanding of the evolution and fate of volatilized ammonia in the atmosphere. Recent trends in livestock rearing have been toward confinement facilities in which high animal concentrations are maintained. One of the impacts of these facilities has been increased local concentrations of...
