Surfacing Behavior of Juvenile Loggerhead Sea Turtles (Caretta caretta) in North Carolina

Creator:: Patton, B. Wren
Abstract:: Sea turtles are endangered species that can be censused with aerial surveys, but the number of turtles in an area must be extrapolated to include animals that are submerged. Twenty-one satellite tags were attached to juvenile loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) in North Carolina. I analyzed surfacing and dive behavior...

Designing for the Future : A Generalized Software Architecture for Virtual Labs

Creator:: Thompson, Kyle B.
Abstract:: In recent years, simulated laboratory experiences have become more prevalent in educational curricula. These simulations, called virtual labs, can enable learning in ways that are not limited by physical constraints. The development of virtual labs is often ad hoc, resulting in unnecessary, repetitive work. The purpose of this thesis is...

Examining Relationships Between the Family Stage of Change Survey and the Family Nutrition Physical Activity Survey among Hispanic and Non-Hispanic Families

Creator:: Navarrete, Ricardo, Jr.
Abstract:: Family influence in the home environment has been linked to children’s nutrition and physical activity behaviors. However few tools exist to identify family level behaviors and families’ readiness to change those behaviors, particularly for populations at high risk for obesity such as Hispanics. This study summarizes the relationships of similar...

Modification of Teleost Visual Feeding Range Model for Cuttlefish: A Visual-Systems Comparison

Creator:: Ebel, Rebekah E.
Abstract:: With human activity causing increases in turbidity in coastal marine waters, it is of economic and ecological importance to understand how this increase will affect organisms living in these areas. At most risk may be predators, such as many teleosts and cephalopods, reliant on vision to detect and capture prey....

A Social Behavior Comparison between a Hand-Raised and Wild-Caught Group of Male Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus)

Creator:: Rose, Shanna J.
Abstract:: Social behavior such as play, affiliation, and some vocalizations of captive animals can be indicators of good welfare. Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) at the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) near Otjiwarongo, Namibia are often housed in social groups with various backgrounds. Observations of social and active behaviors were recorded for a group...

Comparison and Cultural Review of Biosphere Modeling Using Foliar Uptake of Technetium-99 in Radishes

Creator:: Pierson, Kayla L.
Abstract:: Biosphere models predict the transport of radionuclides in the environment with an end goal of assessing the possible risk to humans. Little data exists to support these mathematical biosphere models. The objectives of this work were to verify foliar uptake in biosphere models using experimental data, compare existing biosphere models...
