Geochemistry of quaternary, rift-related volcanism in the Bransfield Strait, Antarctica

Creator:: Keller, Randall Arthur
Abstract:: The Bransfield Strait is the narrow, late Tertiary to Quaternary marginal basin separating the South Shetland Islands from the northern end of the Antarctic Peninsula magmatic arc. Quaternary volcanism in the strait is tholeiitic to mildly alkaline, and contrasts chemically with the pre-Quaternary calc-alkaline arc volcanism. Geochemical evidence presented here...

Biotic alteration of oceanic basalt glass

Creator:: Drinnan, Megan R.
Abstract:: The subsurface microbial biosphere in the igneous oceanic crust has implications for global geochemical cycling, early life on Earth, and the search for life on Mars. Microscopic evidence of a subsurface microbial ecosystem includes biotic alteration textures associated with basaltic glass. The exact conditions in the basaltic layer that make...

Investigation of postharvest quality and storability of hardy kiwifruit (Actinidia arguta 'Ananasnaya')

Creator:: Landis Fisk, Connie
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of harvest maturity, packaging, and storage conditions on subsequent fruit quality of Actinidia arguta ‘Ananasnaya’ and to investigate the use of edible coatings to improve fruit quality and storage life. The influences of harvest maturity (6.0, 8.7, 9.1, and 15.1%...

Identifying the Parameters for Wheat Pollen Electroporation Transformation

Creator:: Liu, Jiang
Abstract:: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops in the world. It has been and continues to be one of the main sources of food for humans and animals. Although traditional wheat breeding has contributed greatly to the improvement of wheat both in productivity and biotic/abiotic stress...

Density Functional Theory Investigation of CH Coupling and CH Hydrogenation Reactions on Different Cobalt Surface Facets and Fischer-Tropsch Temperature Swing Reactor Optimization

Creator:: Petersen, Dennis F.
Abstract:: Fischer-Tropsh Synthesis is a chemical process that converts CO and H₂ (syngas) into long stable hydrocarbon chains to use as fuel. This process suffers from large product distribution that requires expensive post processing. In this study, the reaction mechanism of hydrocarbon chain growth on Co is investigated on different surface...

Kinetic and molecular effects of sulfate reduction on a dechlorinating culture under chemostat growth conditions

Creator:: Berggren, Dusty Rose V.
Abstract:: Chlorinated ethenes are common groundwater contaminants that may be treated through in-situ bioremediation. Relationships between the reducing environment, available electron donors and acceptors, reaction kinetics, and microbial community composition must be further understood to successfully engineer remediation schemes in the complex subsurface environment. This thesis work investigated the effect of...

The Role of the Mucosal Immunoglobulin IgT and Inflammatory Cytokines in Ceratonova shasta Infections in Rainbow Trout

Creator:: Taggart-Murphy, Laura M.
Abstract:: The myxozoan parasite Ceratonova shasta threatens both juvenile and adult salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, causing intestine necrosis and hemorrhaging, along with high mortality in some fish strains. It induces an inflammatory tissue response in susceptible strains of fish; understanding the interactions between C....
