Near earth object collisional mitigation via intense neutron and photon sources : a study in asteroid interdiction and energy coupling

Creator:: Sanders, JC
Abstract:: The large population of 2r>100m near earth objects (NEOs) presents a certain hazard to life on earth. It has been proposed that a nuclear device may be used to alter the course of such objects, thereby averting a catastrophic collision with the earth. The asteroid interdiction problem includes a number...

The ventilated pool: a model of subtropical mode water

Creator:: Dewar, W. K., Samelson, Roger M., and Vallis, G. K.
Abstract:: An analytical model of subtropical mode water is presented, based on ventilated thermocline theory and on numerical solutions of a planetary geostrophic basin model. In ventilated thermocline theory, the western pool is a region bounded on the east by subsurface streamlines that outcrop at the western edge of the interior,...

Toward making the invisible visible : studying science teaching self-efficacy beliefs

Creator:: Perkins, Catherine J.
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of two articles to be submitted for publication. The first, a literature review, makes visible common influences on science teaching self-efficacy beliefs and also points to potentially invisible validation concerns regarding the instrument used. The second investigates the participants' invisible science teaching self-efficacy beliefs and, through the...

Integrating GIS and community mapping into secondary science education:a web GIS approach

Creator:: O'Dea, Elizabeth K.
Abstract:: Geographic information systems (GISs) offer a useful tool for educators to teach students about local and global communities in various subjects. GISs are increasingly being used in K-12 education, but that growth is hindered due to many teachers’ limited access to time or resources necessary to adequately learn a GIS...

Developing explanations : Student reasoning about science concepts during claims-evidence inquiry lessons

Creator:: Pegg, Jerine M.
Abstract:: Recent science education reforms have placed a large emphasis on inquiry-based teaching strategies as an effective way of improving conceptual understanding of science principles, comprehension of the nature of scientific inquiry, and development of the abilities for inquiry (NRC, 1996). To better understand the relationship between inquiry-based instruction and student...

Ocean hazards at Bandon, Oregon and scenario for coastal development

Creator:: Torstenson, Roger William
Abstract:: The community of Bandon is located on the southern half of the Oregon coast, 140 kilometers north of the California border and 40 kilometers south of Coos Bay (Figure 1). Part of the city occupies the low-lying (average 3-meter elevation) area along the south bank of the Coquille River, while...

Analysis and review of policy, decision making and politics regarding finfish aquaculture in Alaska

Creator:: Paine, Brent Conrad
Abstract:: This paper focuses on the explosive and controversial growth in finfish farming in general and salmon aquaculture in particular, and the response of Alaska policy makers to this emerging industry. It seeks to define and analyze why Alaska policy makers chose to prohibit all commercial culture of finfish at a...

Marine protected areas : Gathering stakeholder input via an internet-based survey

Creator:: Demirdjian, Renee
Abstract:: Conservation efforts have been increasing in recent years to help preserve threatened coastal and ocean resources. Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an important tool to protect and conserve ocean resources. The MPA Center was established to take the lead in developing a framework for a national system of MPAs. The...
