Carbon cycle variability during the last millennium and last deglaciation

Creator:: Bauska, Thomas K.
Abstract:: The exchange of carbon on earth is one of the fundamental processes that sustains life and regulates climate. Since the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the burning of fossil fuels and anthropogenic land conversion have altered the carbon cycle, increasing carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to levels that are unprecedented...

Evaluation of physical and thermal methods to support nonlinear cost optimization models of surimi seafood

Creator:: Hsü, Cheng-kuang
Abstract:: Optimization programming techniques were applied to develop the least cost formulations for Pacific whiting surimi-based seafood (PWSBS). To develop the quality constraint functions, texture and color of whiting surimi gels were determined by torsion test and colorimeter, respectively. Whiting surimi gels were produced by heating at 90°C for 15 min....

Roles for retinoid-X-receptors in solar UV-induced melanocyte homeostasis and melanomagenesis

Creator:: Coleman, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, arising from malignant transformation of pigment-producing melanocytes. The primary risk factor for melanoma and other skin cancers is DNA damage resulting from unprotected solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR). If incorrectly repaired, this damage can result in incorporation of mutations that cause aberrant cell...

Vitamin E and K interactions : investigating mechanisms of reduced vitamin K status in response to excess vitamin E

Creator:: Farley, Sherry Mae
Abstract:: The primary goal of my studies was to elucidate the mechanisms for the well-recognized interaction between two nutrients, vitamins E and K. The outcomes from my studies assess mechanisms for adverse effects of vitamin E and provide novel information on mechanisms for vitamin K homeostasis. These findings will provide information...

A study of the photolysis of the aqueous thymine system at 214 nm, 229 nm and 254 nm

Creator:: Satcher, Robert Lee
Abstract:: The photolysis of the aqueous thymine system has been investigated at 214 nm, 229 nm and 254 nm at room temperature. Products of photolysis have been identified as hydrogen peroxide, 6-hydroxy-5- hydroperoxy thymine and tentatively 5-hydroxy-6-hydroperoxy thymine. These together with thymine loss, were determined quantitatively under a variety of conditions....

A Likert scaling of student value statements, field independence-field dependence, and experimentally induced change

Creator:: Paeth, Charles August
Abstract:: In recent years, changes in values have occurred in major elements of the population, most notably among the late adolescents and the college students. That this holds portent for the future was referred to by Revel in WITHOUT MARX OR JESUS when he said, "The American revolution is without doubt...

Assessing the Adaptive Governance Capacity of Western Water Communities

Creator:: Pakenham Stevenson, Anna
Abstract:: One of the greatest challenges in the West is the sustainable management of limited water resources. In recognition of localized responses to natural resource challenges, there has been considerable work in the area of adaptive capacity and collaborative governance to help understand a community’s capacity to manage change. This study...

Seedling recruitment of hairy nightshade and other summer annual weeds in irrigated row crops

Creator:: Peachey, Ronald Edward
Abstract:: This study evaluated the effects of tillage system, rotational tillage sequences, and winter seed burial depth on weed seedling recruitment in irrigated cropping systems. Notill (NT) planting of vegetable crops reduced emergence of hairy nightshade by 77 to 99% and Powell amaranth emergence from 50 to 87% compared to conventional...

A Bioecological Model of Grief Recovery : Theory and Test of the Model

Creator:: Romo, Daniel L.
Abstract:: A primary aim of bereavement research is to alleviate suffering and promote well-being at the junction of life and death for the survivor in an attachment relationship. Bereavement research in the last decade has focused primarily on examining grief recovery within the context of intrapersonal processes. This emphasis has often...
