Establishing suitability of an ocean model for a poleward undercurrent study

Creator:: Duran, Rodrigo
Abstract:: Modifications of an ocean model are described, as the objective for which the model was used changed to study the kinematics and dynamics of an eastern-boundary poleward undercurrent.

Spatial patterns and trends of summertime low cloudiness for the Pacific Northwest, 1996-2017

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Rastogi, Bharat, Clemesha, Rachel E. S., Kim, John B., Samelson, Roger M., Still, Christopher J., and Williams, A. Park
Abstract:: Summertime low clouds are common in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), but spatiotemporal patterns have not been characterized. We show the first maps of low cloudiness for the western PNW and North Pacific Ocean using a 22‐year satellite‐derived record of monthly mean low cloudiness frequency for May through September and supplemented...

Initial Designs for Improving Conversations for People Using Speech Synthesizers

Creator:: Nguyen, Duy M.
Abstract:: This thesis aims to determine the impact that Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) devices have on social interactions, and then improves the AAC user experience through a user focus design process. AAC devices enable people who cannot speak to communicate with others. Unfortunately, they are tedious to use and make...

Inferring Patterns and Processes of Emergence in Clonal Phytophthora Epidemics using Population Genomic Approaches

Creator:: Cauldron, Nicholas C.
Abstract:: Oomycete and fungal pathogens threaten food, fiber, and forests around the world. With climate change, these pathogens are expected to emerge more frequently. Evolution can facilitate their emergence through mechanisms such as mutations that change or expand host range. Characterizing evolutionary mechanisms in plant pathogens will contribute to our ability...

Development of Computational, Visualization, and Molecular Tools for Fungal and Oomycete Community Ecology

Creator:: Foster, Zachary Stephen Longiaru
Abstract:: Oomycetes are an important group of organisms with a variety of ecological roles similar to fungi. Although many are well-studied plant pathogens known for their devastating effects on agricultural systems, most are little-studied saprobes and parasites of plants and animals in nearly every ecosystem on earth. The advent of affordable...

Metagenomic and metatranscriptomic inventories of the lower Amazon River, May 2011

Creator:: Satinsky, Brandon M., Fortunato, Caroline S., Doherty, Mary, Smith, Christa B., Sharma, Shalabh, Ward, Nicholas D., Krusche, Alex V., Yager, Patricia L., Richey, Jeffrey E., Moran, Mary Ann, and Crump, Byron C.
Abstract:: Background: The Amazon River runs nearly 6500 km across the South American continent before emptying into the western tropical North Atlantic Ocean. In terms of both volume and watershed area, it is the world’s largest riverine system, affecting elemental cycling on a global scale. Results: A quantitative inventory of genes...

Eddy dynamics from satellite altimetry

Creator:: Fu, Lee-Lueng, Chelton, Dudley B., Le Traon, Pierre-Yves, and Morrow, Rosemary
Abstract:: Most of the kinetic energy of ocean circulation is contained in ubiquitous mesoscale eddies. Their prominent signatures in sea surface height have rendered satellite altimetry highly effective in observing global ocean eddies. Our knowledge of ocean eddy dynamics has grown by leaps and bounds since the advent of satellite altimetry...

Coupled ocean-atmosphere interaction at oceanic mesoscales

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B. and Xie, Shang-Ping
Abstract:: Satellite observations have revealed a remarkably strong positive correlation between sea surface temperature (SST) and surface winds on oceanic mesoscales of 10–1000 km. Although SST influence on the atmosphere had previously been identified from several in situ observational studies, its widespread existence in regions of strong SST gradients throughout the...

Blood total mercury and methylmercury among pregnant mothers in Charleston, South Carolina, USA

Creator:: Donohue, Alexis, Wagner, Carol L., Burch, James B., and Rothenberg, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Background Maternal blood total mercury (THg) is a biomarker for prenatal methylmercury (MeHg) exposure. Few studies have quantified both blood THg and MeHg during pregnancy, and few studies have reported longitudinal trends. Objectives We analyzed blood THg and MeHg in a cohort of pregnant mothers in Charleston, South Carolina (n...
