Multiple cooling tower plumes, a field study and analytical model

Creator:: Macduff, Robert Bruce
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Realized and potential climate responses of lichen and bryophyte communities in a national forest inventory

Creator:: Smith, Robert J.
Abstract:: Climate and terrestrial vegetation have had mutual feedbacks for nearly five hundred million years, yet both are now departing from recent historical norms, with uncertain implications for forest ecosystems. This dissertation outlines the current and potential future climate responses of lichen and bryophyte communities in the United States as part...

Biochemical changes in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg, 1795), during larval development and metamorphosis

Creator:: Bartlett, Bruce Robert
Abstract:: The energy strategies of early development of the Pacific Oyster, Crassostrea gigas, were examined. Changes in proteins, total carbohydrates, free reducing sugars and total and neutral lipids were determined for the unfertilized egg and larval stages through 13 days post-settlement. During early larval stages neutral lipid levels decreased and provided...

Vegetation changes of communities containing medusahead (Taeniatherum asperum (Sim.) Nevski) following herbicide, grazing, and mowing treatments

Creator:: Turner, Robert Bruce
Abstract:: Studies were conducted from 1962 to 1966 to investigate the effectiveness of several practices in manipulating medusahead (Taeniatherum asperum (Sim. ) Nevski) infested and/or dominated ecosystems by releasing competition in favor of perennial grasses. Several herbicide treatments were evaluated for selective control of medusahead and cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L. )...

Ecology of feral pigs on Santa Catalina Island

Creator:: Baber, Daniel W.
Abstract:: A feral pig population on Santa Catalina Island, California, was studied for 17 months beginning in July 1980. Density was estimated to be 21 to 34 pigs/km² (95% confidence interval) using capture-recapture techniques. Dry season home ranges determined from radio-telemetry data were small and differed significantly between boars and sows....

Mormons and evolution : a history of B. H. Roberts and his attempt to reconcile science and religion

Creator:: Reid, Tim S.
Abstract:: Although much has been written describing the various reactions to the origin of Species in America, the Mormon reaction to Darwinism has been largely ignored. This dissertation will recount the history of this reaction as exemplified by the life and works of B. H. Roberts. Roberts's intellectual pursuits early in...

Lichen Studies of Tropical Dry Forest: A Systematic and Ecological Approach

Creator:: Miranda-González, Ricardo
Abstract:: In recent years, our ecological knowledge of tropical dry forests has increased dramatically. However, whole components of the ecosystem, like lichenized fungi, remain mostly unknown. Crustose lichens in these forests are so abundant, that they are responsible for the characteristic appearance of a “white bark forest” during the dry season....

The role of herbivores and productivity on community structure of rocky shores of the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador

Creator:: Vinueza, Luis R.
Abstract:: Ecosystems are facing increasing threats from human related activities, such as overfishing, pollution, habitat destruction, species invasions, and diseases, among others. While oceanic islands provide natural laboratories to understand ecological and evolutionary process, they are also particularly vulnerable to these impacts, given their usual isolation from the mainland and the...

Analysis of Bayesian anytime inference algorithms

Creator:: Burgess, Scott Alan
Abstract:: This dissertation explores and analyzes the performance of several Bayesian anytime inference algorithms for dynamic influence diagrams. These algorithms are compared on the On-Line Maintenance Agent testbed, a software artifact permitting comparison of dynamic reasoning algorithms used by an agent on a variety of simulated maintenance and monitoring tasks. Analysis...
