  • Genomic signatures of mitonuclear coevolution across populations of Tigriopus californicus

    Creator:
    Barreto, Felipe S., Watson, Eric T., Lima, Thiago G., Willett, Christopher S., Edmands, Suzanne, Li, Weizhong, and Burton, Ronald S.
    Abstract:
    The copepod Tigriopus californicus shows extensive population divergence and is becoming a model for understanding allopatric differentiation and the early stages of speciation. Here, we report a high-quality reference genome for one population (similar to 190 megabases across 12 scaffolds, and similar to 15,500 protein-coding genes). Comparison with other arthropods...

  • Refining nitrogen management for organic broccoli production

    Creator:
    Sullivan, Dan M., Peachey, Ed, and Donaldson, Andrew
    Abstract:
    Specialty organic fertilizers used in organic vegetable production are expensive. So, from environmental and economic perspectives, growers want to maximize nitrogen (N) fertilizer use efficiency by the crop. This research was conducted to (1) determine sufficient N fertilizer rates for organic broccoli, (2) evaluate the efficacy of a specialty organic...

  • Hacking RFID Tags to Produce Economical Soil Moisture Sensors

    Creator:
    Stoddard, Brett S.
    Abstract:
    Currently available soil moisture sensors have intrinsic limitations that limit their adoption by industry. Depending on the technology, these limitations may include high costs, battery requirements, precice manual installation, high cost, and/or constrictive legislation that regulates their use. A passive soil moisture sensing system based around RFID technology would allay...

  • Revisiting the rigor-relevance relationship: An institutional logics perspective

    Creator:
    Paterson, Ted A., Harms, P. D., and Tuggle, Christopher S.
    Abstract:
    The question of whether academic research should emphasize scientific rigor, practical relevance, or both simultaneously has been hotly debated in HRM research and other related disciplines for much of the past century. That said, empirical investigations of whether these values are mutually exclusive or compatible are surprisingly rare. Moreover, the...

  • On Avoiding Power-Seeking by Artificial Intelligence

    Creator:
    Turner, Alexander M.
    Abstract:
    We do not know how to align a very intelligent AI agent's behavior with human interests. I investigate whether—absent a full solution to this AI alignment problem—we can build smart {\ai} agents which have limited impact on the world, and which do not autonomously seek power. In this thesis, I...

  • A Systematic Review of Diversity and Inclusion Scholarly Sources in Natural Resources (1919 – 2018)

    Creator:
    Brown, Jasmine K. and Rempel, Hannah G.
    Abstract:
    This dataset was created for the purpose of collecting and cataloguing sources that mentioned aspects of cultural diversity or workforce diversity within natural resource professions. The exploratory questions that prompted the collection of sources in this dataset were: - Is diversity discussed in scholarly sources within natural resources? - If...

  • Simulating the Dynein Motor Protein: A Monte Carlo Approach to Achieve Coordinated Stepping

    Creator:
    Kiatvongcharoen, Jin
    Abstract:
    The motor protein dynein is responsible for cellular processes such as axonal transport and cell division by delivering vital information along the microtubule track. A failed delivery can cause severe damage to the cell’s functionality and lead to neurological diseases. Despite dynein’s rich history in cellular research, the mechanism of...

  • Simulating dynein’s powerstroke using Brownian dynamics

    Creator:
    Capek, Elliott L.
    Abstract:
    Dynein is a motor protein which transports cargo along tracks inside the cell. Like related motor proteins kinesin and myosin, dynein uses cellular energy to take steps with its two foot domains. Unlike kinesin or myosin, dynein’s stepping pattern is highly varied: it can take steps between zero and 60nm...
