Tensor Field Design and Analysis for Applications in Computer Graphics and Scientific Visualization

Creator:: Palacios, Jonathan
Abstract:: Many applications in computer graphics and geometry processing rely on the ability to locally orient 2D and 3D entities on a surface, or inside a volume, such as the sinusoidal kernels in Gabor noise, the color and geometry textures in pattern synthesis, and the finite elements in remeshing. In these...

Temperature stress, gene expression, and innate immunity at the onset of cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis

Creator:: Schnitzler, Christine E.
Abstract:: The intracellular mutualism between cnidarians and photosynthetic dinoflagellates (genus Symbiodinium) is responsible for the physical and trophic structure of diverse coral reef ecosystems. This relationship, based on nutrient exchange, allows for high productivity in tropical waters, which are generally nutrient-poor environments. Numerous environmental stressors currently threaten the health of corals,...

Infectious diseases of the Felidae : parasite communities from miniature to massive

Creator:: Broughton, Heather M.
Abstract:: Direct anthropogenic stressors have caused drastic declines in wildlife populations over the past two centuries. In the face of these threats, spillover of infectious disease from domestic animals and livestock into wildlife, and novel interactions between parasites and pathogens within wildlife communities, have further suppressed already vulnerable populations. As management...

Interpreting the circular dichroism of cyclic dimers of amino acids

Creator:: Bowman, Richard Leroy
Abstract:: Independent systems theory has been used to interpret the circular dichroism (CD) spectra in the vacuum uv of three cyclic dimers of amino acids. First, the theory for rotational strengths is developed in terms of degenerate and nondegenerate group functions. All terms to first order in perturbation theory are kept....

Topological analysis, visualization, and design of vector fields on surfaces

Creator:: Chen, Guoning
Abstract:: Analysis, visualization, and design of vector fields on surfaces have a wide variety of major applications in both scientific visualization and computer graphics. On the one hand, analysis and visualization of vector fields provide critical insights to the flow data produced from simulation or experiments of various engineering processes. On...

Understanding Signals of the South Pole Ice Core: Chronology, Climate, and Firn Processes

Creator:: Epifanio, Jenna A.
Abstract:: The South Pole ice core (SPC14), drilled in the field seasons of 2014/2015 and 2015/2016, is an intermediate length, 1,751-m ice core which preserves a 54,000-year record of past climate and atmospheric composition. The SPC14 ice core adds to the spatial grid of ice cores in Antarctica extending into the...

Atomic solid state energy scale applied to novel thin-film solar absorbers

Creator:: Pelatt, Brian D.
Abstract:: The atomic solid state energy (SSE) scale is introduced as a tool for inorganic materials design. The SSE scale is obtained by assessing an average electron affinity (EA) (for a cation) or an average ionization potential (IP) (for an anion) for each atom using data from compounds having that specific...

Multicellular monolayer’s self-organization under external stimuli

Creator:: Li, Guanyu
Abstract:: Cell signaling under external stimulation is a critical mechanism that governs many biological processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration, and cell apoptosis, etc. For multicellular organisms, the ability to synchronize heterogeneous individual cellular responses through intercellular communication is crucial to maintain normal functionality. However, even though the biological pathways...

Eastern filbert blight in hazelnut (Corylus avellana): identification of new resistance sources and high resolution genetic and physical mapping of a resistance gene

Creator:: Sathuvalli, Vidyasagar R.
Abstract:: European hazelnut, Corylus avellana L., is the only economically important nut crop in the family Betulaceae. One of the threats to the hazelnut industry in the Pacific Northwest is the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host genetic resistance to EFB identified in the...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...
