Framework for Computational Modelling of Cellular Diffusion Systems

Creator:: Senger, Mitchell John
Abstract:: Many biological processes are regulated by the presence and movement of cellular Ca²⁺ ions. The concentration of Ca²⁺ in a cellular environment is regulated by IP₃ sensitive channels that lie on the surface of a cell’s endoplasmic reticulum. Little is known about the macroscopic effects of intracellular Ca²⁺ activity, so...

Student Perceptions of Two Versions of a Campus Sexual Assault Resource guide

Creator:: Mitchell, Jazlyn
Abstract:: College students need accurate information to both prevent sexual assault and to access services following sexual assault. Effective communication serves an important public health role by reducing both assaults and psychological distress. In contrast, ineffective communication can both increase assaults and psychological distress. Little empirical research is available to guide...

High-resolution infrared studies of perdeutero-spiropentane, C₅D₈

Creator:: Erickson, Blake Alexander, Ju, X., Nibler, Joesph W., Beaudry, C. M., and Blake, T. A.
Abstract:: Perdeutero-spiropentane (C₅D₈) has been synthesized and infrared and Raman spectra are reported for the first time. Wavenumber assignments are made for most of the fundamental vibrational modes. Gas phase infrared spectra were recorded at a resolution (0.002 cm⁻¹) sufficient to resolve individual rovibrational lines and show evidence of strong Coriolis...

Epifaunal density differences on coralline algae compared to fleshy algae in the Yachats, Oregon intertidal community

Creator:: Gani, Christopher D.
Abstract:: Ocean acidification has led to many issues regarding the decline of calcifying organisms, such as coralline algae. Acidified sea water inhibits precipitation of CaCO3 that affects the structure and growth of coralline algae. Therefore, non-calcifying algae may outcompete calcifying algae in the intertidal systems with future acidic ocean condition. Variety...
