  • Roadblocks, Hurdles, and Glass Ceilings: The Female Executive Perspective

    Creator:
    Conroy, Kendall and Hansen, Eric
    Abstract:
    The North American forest sector is well-known for its lack of diversity. In most operations, middle-aged white males are the majority of employees. Given this setting, we investigate the experiences of female executives working in North American forest sector firms. We take a qualitative approach with in-person and Skype interviews...

  • Systematically evaluating the developmental toxicity of nanomaterials using the zebrafish model

    Creator:
    Edwards, Sabrina R.
    Abstract:
    As engineered nanomaterials (ENM) become more common in consumer products, it is crucial to rapidly assess toxicity of unique ENM. Previous studies rarely focused on standardizing nanotoxicity testing, leading to inconsistent and irreproducible results. This study characterized a variety of ENM of different size, shape, core type, and surface charge...

  • Reciprocal Moss Ornament Transplant for Heavy Metal Deposition Rate and Spatial Variability

    Creator:
    Field, Gillette M. and Shiel, Alyssa E.
    Abstract:
    Air pollution and pollution patterns have become a hot topic over the last several years. Many studies have been launched due to the increasing concern with air quality. As urban areas grow, atmospheric heavy metal pollution grows proportionally. Reducing atmospheric heavy metal pollution, and consequent health issues, requires monitoring and...

  • Contributions of parasites to energy flow through a stream food web

    Creator:
    Layden, Tamara
    Abstract:
    Parasites are increasingly recognized for their significant roles in shaping community structure and ecosystem dynamics. Due to their cryptic nature, however, they are often neglected in measurements of energy flow and biomass in ecosystems. Past studies have demonstrated that parasites directly contribute to the flow of energy through marine estuaries...

  • Entomophagy: a literature review of sustainable and nutritional properties

    Creator:
    Dempster, Lisa
    Abstract:
    Global human population are growing at a very high rate. By the year 2050, food demand is expected to increase by 70%. World wide 805 million people are malnourished. Entomophagy has the potential to provide a solution to impending hunger problems while taking pressure off of our current cropping systems....

  • Quantifying nitrate content in the Japanese food pattern

    Creator:
    Zucker, Michaela F., Gardner, Elizabeth, Zhang, Lynn, Machha, Ajay, and Hord, Norman
    Abstract:
    The presence of nitrates and nitrites in food is associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer and, in infants, methemoglobinemia. Nitrites are produced endogenously through the oxidation of nitric oxide and through a reduction of nitrate by commensal bacteria in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract. Despite the physiologic roles...
