Microbial Abundance and Community Analysis in Devil’s Hole, Harrington Sound, Bermuda

Creator:: Denman, Carmen C.
Abstract:: Microbial activity within elevated CO2 and oxygen depleted environments changes with density driven stratification overturn in the seasonally anoxic region of Devil’s Hole, Bermuda. The temperature gradient developed during the summer months creates a natural laboratory to study bacterial and virus population density and microbial community dynamics in the anoxic...

Comparison of Behaviors of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Different Play Settings

Creator:: Nussbaum, Katrina
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to compare the child behaviors of young children with autism spectrum disorder (ages 44-91 months) in different play settings. The hypothesis states that more positive child behaviors will be observed in the motor-based play setting compared to the free play setting. This study observed...

Development of an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of Zebrafish Interleukin 1 beta upregulation

Creator:: Cook, Samuel A.
Abstract:: The study and utilization of Danio rerio (Zebrafish) as a model organism has increased greatly in recent decades. They are used in many areas of biological research, but one field that has used them extensively is immunology. Since zebrafish have been found to possess many orthologs to human genes, study...

A Social Behavior Comparison between a Hand-Raised and Wild-Caught Group of Male Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus)

Creator:: Rose, Shanna J.
Abstract:: Social behavior such as play, affiliation, and some vocalizations of captive animals can be indicators of good welfare. Cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) at the Cheetah Conservation Fund (CCF) near Otjiwarongo, Namibia are often housed in social groups with various backgrounds. Observations of social and active behaviors were recorded for a group...

Selection of an Orthogonal tRNA Synthetase for Trifluoromethyl-phenylalanine in Methanomethylophilus Alvus System

Creator:: Eyberg, Daniel R.
Abstract:: Genetic code expansion is a technology that allows for site-specific incorporation of noncanonical amino acids into recombinant proteins at amber stop codons using engineered translational machinery. The technology allows for expanded study into proteins, derived from the integration of novel chemical functions found in noncanonical amino acids, such as fluorescence,...

Testing a Theoretical Model that Predicts Extinction of Populations Forced by Random, Episodic Disturbances

Creator:: Olsen, Conner J.
Abstract:: We do not fully understand reasons behind extinction of populations and species. Consequently, our ability to anticipate extinction (which can be considered a permanent type of an ecological threshold) has remained elusive. In particular, it is not clear how the attributes of episodic disturbance regimes can elicit extinction. In this...

Predicting Fish Recruitment in the Northeast Pacific Using Climate Indices

Creator:: Riley, Shannon L.
Abstract:: Predicting recruitment, which is dependent on parent stock size and climate, is vital for forecasting productivity of fish stocks. The effects of climate can be analyzed via the use of climate indices. Three climate indices, the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation, and the Oceanic Niño Index, describe...

Design and preliminary characterization of thermally-actuated pumps utilizing Marangoni and Leidenfrost effects

Creator:: Sedler, Stephen Joseph
Abstract:: Design and preliminarily characterization of two thermally-actuated pumps is presented in this thesis. The unique feature of both pumps is the presence of periodic asymmetrical structures on the channel walls. Two heat transfer effects are used with surface asymmetry to generate forces that drive the fluid in a preferential direction...

Examining Early Gender Disparities in Academic Performance: A Pre-School Analysis of Gender Differences and Observations in Academic Assessments

Creator:: Snisky, Briana
Abstract:: Executive function (EF) is an extensively researched topic as a predictor for academic achievements for children. Delineated as qualities of self-regulation, EF prepares a child to produce successful behaviors for their learning and social environments. Entering school with sufficient self-regulation skills is proven advantageous for scholarly performance. Within the early...
