Molecular and genetic assessment of selected antiporters and methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins in Vibrio cholerae

Creator:: Quinn, Matthew J.
Abstract:: The pathogen Vibrio cholerae uses cations as a primary currency of virulence and environmental persistence, using gradients of those cations to move, acquire nutrients, and control virulence gene expression. An understanding of the overlapping roles of bioenergetics and chemotaxis in the virulence and environmental survival of V. cholerae issues from...

Fundamental Investigations of Electrocatalysis: Mechanistic Implications of Catalyst Electronic Structure

Creator:: Carvalho, O. Quinn
Abstract:: Heterogeneous catalysis modulates the rate and selectivity of reaction processes by stabilizing a series of intermediate states on solid surfaces, facilitating the production of many commodity chemicals modern society relies upon. Conventional, thermal catalytic processes—conducted at elevated temperatures and pressures—source thermal, mechanical, and chemical potential energy from carbon-hydrogen bonds— combustion...

Towards architecture-adaptable parallel programming

Creator:: Kumaran, Santhosh
Abstract:: There is a software gap in parallel processing. The short lifespan and small installation base of parallel architectures have made it economically infeasible to develop platform-specific parallel programming environments that deliver performance and programmability. One obvious solution is to build architecture-independent programming environments. But the architecture independence usually comes at...

High-performance data-parallel input/output

Creator:: Moore, Jason Andrew
Abstract:: Existing parallel file systems are proving inadequate in two important arenas: programmability and performance. Both of these inadequacies can largely be traced to the fact that nearly all parallel file systems evolved from Unix and rely on a Unix-oriented, single-stream, block-at-a-time approach to file I/O. This one-size-fits-all approach to parallel...

Enrichment of Live Prey with Microparticles for the Enhanced Delivery of Water-soluble Nutrients to Marine Fish Larvae

Creator:: Hawkyard, Donald Matthew
Abstract:: In the wild, marine fish larvae feed on copepods and other planktonic organisms. Copepods are often considered the "gold standard" for meeting the nutritional needs of cultured marine fish larvae; however, in captivity, marine fish larvae are generally fed cultured live prey, i.e. rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis) and/or Artemia sp., until...

Prediction of hazardous Columbia River bar conditions

Creator:: Enfield, David B.
Abstract:: In this study methods were developed for the prediction of wave conditions that are hazardous to navigation at river entrances, with emphasis on applicability to the Columbia River. There are two basic components to the prediction system: (1) a semi-automated spectral method for forecasting the significant height and average period...

Potential impacts of canola (Brassica napus L.) on vegetable seed production in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Quinn, Michael P.
Abstract:: In the Willamette Valley of Oregon, a combination of the need for rotational crops and an increased desire for biofuel production created interest in planting Brassica napus (canola). However, questions were raised arisen over the potential damage canola production could have on the preexisting Brassica vegetable seed industry. To address...

Modeling Density Dependence in the Presence of Measurement Error

Creator:: Payton, Quinn
Abstract:: Density dependence is an ecological concept concerning the mechanisms of change in the size of a population. The inability to census ecological populations confounds approaches to identify and quantify the level of density dependence. Statistical tests which ignore the presence of measurement error tend to result in misspeci fied type...
