Poly- and perfluorinated alkyl substance release from landfills and landfill model reactors

Creator:: Allred, Brent McKay
Abstract:: Research and public concern of poly and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) as environmental contaminants has increased significantly due to the increasing number of reports of their detection in humans and wildlife. PFASs have a number of commercial applications including surfactants, coatings, polymers, and levelers, which are used on consumer products like...

Particulate Trace Metal Fluxes in the Western Arabian Sea and Their Links to Marine Productivity

Creator:: Flannery, Kelly M.
Abstract:: Many trace elements (e.g., Zn, Cd, Mo) are essential phytoplankton micronutrients, making them crucial to the marine ecosystem and ultimately the carbon cycle. Because of this association trace metals are also utilized in paleoceanographic studies (e.g., Mo, Cd). However, not much is known about what controls the cycling of these...

Claude McKay's Vision of Community in the African Diaspora : A Fresh Take on Home to Harlem and Banjo

Creator:: De Jesus, Michael A. (Michael Anthony)
Abstract:: This research examines the literary and philosophical dimensions of the African American Harlem Renaissance, beginning with the historical milieu of the early twentieth century. A social movement that became known as Uplift and the so-called Cabaret Movement emerged as important, competing literary and social ideologies within the Renaissance. W.E.B. Du...

Co-planar integration of silicon integrated circuits and microﬂuidic networks for biosensor applications

Creator:: Lindsay, McKay W.
Abstract:: Silicon integrated circuit (IC) technology has enabled numerous electrical and optical sensors used in biological and chemical assays, where they can increase performance while decreasing cost and size compared to traditional detectors. There is signiﬁcant potential to further leverage IC technology for lab-on-chip applications, creating aﬀordable and portable medical diagnostic...

Examining Evidence-based Intervention Sustainability and De-adoption in the Context of HIV Prevention

Creator:: McKay, Virginia R.
Abstract:: Evidence-based interventions (EBIs), which demonstrate efficacy in research settings, are rarely sustained when implemented in public health organizations. Rather, EBIs are often de-adopted - potentially undermining the positive benefits of the EBIs for the communities that access them. The lack of sustainability is particularly troubling among public health organizations that...

Autonomous in situ measurements of estuarine surface PCO₂ : instrument development and initial estuarine observations

Creator:: Wall, Colleen McKay
Abstract:: A novel, low-cost instrument capable of measuring surface water PCO₂ was designed for use in dynamic, shallow-water environments. The instrument was tested in the Yaquina River Estuary, a macrotidal estuary known to experience a wide range of conditions ranging from dominance by the coastal ocean during summer upwelling to substantial...

How Behavior, Physiology, and Ontogeny of Klamath Redband Trout Shape the Functionality of Habitats in a Landscape of Temperature Extremes

Creator:: Hahlbeck, Nicholas J.
Abstract:: Climate change is a global phenomenon, but natural selection occurs within landscapes. A central tenet of landscape ecology is that mobile species depend on complementary habitats, which are insufficient in isolation, but combine to support animals through the full annual cycle. For coldwater fishes, it is widely assumed that maximum...

Lithologic Controls on Soil Carbon Partitioning in the Alaskan Coastal Temperate Rainforest

Creator:: Fleiner, Julia H.
Abstract:: Coastal Temperate Rainforests of western North America are carbon dense ecological regions of great importance due to their high biological productivity and climatic conditions leading to the natural accumulation of soil organic carbon (SOC). Yet, the distribution of SOC remains understudied in the CTR environments, particularly in upland mineral soils,...

Soil Health and the Response of the Soil Microbial Community to Disturbances across Western North America

Creator:: Kersey, Jordan H.
Abstract:: Temperate coniferous forests, such as those that cover vast areas of the western US and Canada, have evolved to depend on cycles of disturbance for succession of species and overall ecosystem maintenance. Many of these forest systems are managed, often for timber production, where disturbances are of anthropogenic origin and...

A stratigraphic approach to characterize the deposition and storage of organic matter in reservoir sediments

Creator:: Stratton Garvin, Laurel E.
Abstract:: The relationship between carbon burial and sedimentation in reservoirs is unknown, exposing gaps in our fundamental understanding of the transport, processing, and deposition of sediment and organic matter in fluvial and lacustrine systems and contributing to uncertainty in our understanding of the net impact of dams to the global carbon...
