Creator:: Stoneberg, Michael R.
Abstract:: This thesis discusses the African American authors Richard Wright and James Baldwin, and their views regarding how literature should be written. These views are examined as laid out in a selection of each author‟s essays, as well as through an analysis of the characters Bigger Thomas and Rufus Scott in...

Creator:: Kula, Michael R.
Abstract:: Arctic sea ice concentration and volume have declined due to greenhouse gas radiative forcing and an overall positive climate feedback. At the same time, there have been noteworthy weather and climate circulation anomalies both within the Arctic and extending through the midlatitudes and even into the tropics, leading some studies...

Creator:: Boer, Michael R.
Abstract:: Product development efforts are extremely important to a company's success in today's global competitive business environment. Yet, these highly consequential efforts are terribly nebulous to a point that past experiences are inherently underutilized. This thesis demonstrates a methodology to quantify past product development efforts in an attempt to better utilize...

Creator:: MacQuigg, Michael R.
Abstract:: This thesis presents methods for treating annihilation photon pairs in deterministic pulse height distribution (PHD) simulations. The methods are applied in PHD simulations for monoenergtic sources of 1.6 and 2.6 MeV photons incident on 5 and 10 cm 1-D slabs of germanium, sodium iodide, and lead and the results are...

Creator:: Vanderberg, Michael R.
Abstract:: Current frameworks for analyzing forest carbon offset projects in disturbance-prone western forests often fail to address the dynamic nature of carbon pathways through time. They do not account for the probability of loss due to wildfire, which can influence the prediction of carbon storage at the end of a planning...

Creator:: Naffziger, Michael R.
Abstract:: The work described herein details the synthesis and application of biphenyls that probe the effects of hydrogen, Cl / Br, and methyl substituents on the aryl ring of the terminal acetylenic carbon. From this work, we successfully developed the rapid synthesis of phenyl acetylenes in 3-4 steps from inexpensive commercially...

Creator:: Sun, Jin-Hua, Hyman, Michael R., and Arp, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Acetylene is a slow-binding inhibitor of the Ni- and Fe-containing dimeric hydrogenase isolated from Azotobacter vinelandii. Acetylene was released from hydrogenase during the recovery from inhibition. This indicates that no transformation of acetylene to another compound occurred as a result of the interaction with hydrogenase. However, the release of C2H2...
