Quasi-Experimental Methods to Assess Impacts of Energy Policy on Pregnancy Outcomes

Creator:: Willis, Mary D.
Abstract:: Most energy policies that are implemented in the United States dictate how energy is produced, distributed, and consumed, but policies generally neglect to fully investigate how these decisions impact population health. Individuals who live near energy sector components are often different to those that reside further away and change over...

Removal of Radioactive Strontium, Iodine, and Uranium from Contaminated Groundwater : Sorption Processes and Properties

Creator:: Leonard, Mary E.
Abstract:: Iodine-129 is a key risk driver at sites where nuclear materials have been fabricated or processed, and it is a predominant isotope of concern in long-term waste storage strategies. I-129 exists primarily as iodate in the subsurface at the Hanford Site in south-central Washington State. Between 15 and 40% of...

Ionizing radiation and its chemical effects : a historical study of chemical dosimetry (1902-1962)

Creator:: Chorzempa, Mary André, Sister
Abstract:: Chemical dosimetry developed in response to needs created by developments in the field of high-energy radiation. Shortly after the discovery of X-rays in 1895 and of radioactivity in 1896, the deleterious effects of ionizing radiation were recognized. To guard against the injurious effects of radiation in medical application, dose-measuring methods...

Boundaries of research : civilian leadership, military funding, and the international network surrounding the development of numerical weather prediction in the United States

Creator:: Harper, Kristine C.
Abstract:: American meteorology was synonymous with subjective weather forecasting in the early twentieth century. Controlled by the Weather Bureau and with no academic programs of its own, the few hundred extant meteorologists had no standing in the scientific community. Until the American Meteorological Society was founded in 1919, meteorologists had no...
