Optimization of Agrochemical Application Technologies, Strategies and Chemical Control of Spotted-wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), Diptera: Drosophilidae as a Model Organism and Identification of Trisiloxane and Silane Surfactants in Agricultural Spray Adjuvants and Reference Materials

Creator:: Mermer, Serhan
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is an insect of global concern that causes serious damage to soft-skinned fruits. D. suzukii is widespread in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia and is listed as an invasive pest with strict quarantine protocols governing import and export. Given the damage caused by D....

Profiles of Children’s Cognitive Self-Regulation Around the Transition to School

Creator:: Miao, Alicia J.
Abstract:: Cognitive self-regulation and the behavioral manifestations of cognitive self-regulation are important aspects of school readiness, yet less is known about the variation in measurement modalities within children. In this dissertation, two studies examined the makeup, antecedents, and consequents of constellations of cognitive self-regulation (CSR) measures around the transition to formal...

Privacy-Sensitive Robotics

Creator:: Rueben, Matthew R.
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on personal privacy in human-robot interaction, which we call "privacy-sensitive robotics." Our understanding of "privacy" is very broad, including not just information privacy but also physical, psychological, and social privacy. We begin by surveying the scholarly literature on privacy and talking about why it applies to interactions...

Price-Endogenous Farm Technology Adoption and Ex-Ante Economic Impact Assessment

Creator:: Cho, Seojin
Abstract:: Technological growth in agriculture increases crop output but it could lower output price in the market. Economic impact assessment in ex-ante analysis usually does not include these indirect supply responses, which can overestimate the economic potential of new technology. This dissertation provides an integrated farm-level ex-ante impact assessment model to...

The Role of Ascorbic Acid, β-Cyclodextrins, and Alternative Substrates in Dictating Rates of Polyphenol Oxidase-Catalyzed Browning in Potato-Based Reaction Mixtures

Creator:: Jiang, Shu
Abstract:: Enzymatic browning is a consequence of a series of reactions initiated by polyphenol oxidase (PPO)-catalyzed quinone formation. Unwanted browning negatively affects food quality and lowers consumer acceptability. Thus, there is general interest in strategies to control enzymatic browning. Cyclodextrins are cyclic glucan oligosaccharides that form inclusion complexes with a number...

Visualizers, visualizations, and visualizees : differences in meaning-making by scientific experts and novices from global visualizations of ocean data

Creator:: Stofer, Kathryn A.
Abstract:: Data visualizations designed for academic scientists are not immediately meaningful to everyday scientists. Communicating between a specialized, expert audience and a general, novice public is non-trivial; it requires careful translation. However, more widely available visualization technologies and platforms, including new three-dimensional spherical display systems in schools and informal science education...

John Archibald Wheeler : a study of mentoring in modern physics

Creator:: Christensen, Terry M.
Abstract:: This dissertation has two objectives. The first objective is to determine where best to situate the study of mentoring (i.e. the 'making of scientists') on the landscape of the history of science and science studies. This task is accomplished by establishing mentoring studies as a link between the robust body...

Monte Carlo simulations of magnetic semiconducting Superlattices

Creator:: Scott, Silas Menlo
Abstract:: Computer simulations invoking the Metropolis Algorithm and Monte Carlo techniques were constructed to model the behavior ofvarious systems of magnetic semiconductors. Among the systems modeled were bulk type II FCC antiferromagnets and simple cubic thin films and superlattices. Studies of bulk antiferromagnets revealed dependence of Neel Temperature on nearest neighbor...

Two Essays on Local Government Finances in the United States

Creator:: Jung, Jaeho
Abstract:: County governments in the United States play important roles in the tax collection and public service provisions. Thus, a better understanding of the local government finances is closely related to the welfares of residents. In this dissertation, I provide two essays: in the first essay, I examine the fiscal impacts...
