Developing and interpreting aqueous functional assays for comparative property-activity relationships of different nanoparticles

Creator:: Kidd, Justin M., Hanigan, David, Truong, Lisa, Hristovski, Kiril, Tanguay, Robert, and Westerhoff, Paul
Abstract:: It is difficult to relate intrinsic nanomaterial properties to their functional behavior in the environment. Unlike frameworks for dissolved organic chemicals, there are few frameworks comparing multiple and inter-related properties of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) to their fate, exposure, and hazard in environmental systems. We developed and evaluated reproducibility and inter-correlation...

Trade-offs in ecosystem impacts from nanomaterial versus organic chemical ultraviolet filters in sunscreens

Creator:: Hanigan, David, Truong, Lisa, Schoepf, Jared, Nosaka, Takayuki, Mulchandani, Anjali, Tanguay, Robert L., and Westerhoff, Paul
Abstract:: Both nanoparticulate (nZnO and nTiO(2)) and organic chemical ultraviolet (UV) filters are active ingredients in sunscreen and protect against skin cancer, but limited research exists on the environmental effects of sunscreen release into aquatic systems. To examine the trade-offs of incorporating nano particles (NPs) into sunscreens over the past two...

Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design's Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres

Creator:: Le, Vivian T.
Abstract:: The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine...

Writing a Recipe for Teaching Sustainable Food Systems: Lessons from Three University Courses

Creator:: Brekken, Christy Anderson, Peterson, Hikaru Hanawa, King, Robert P., and Conner, David
Abstract:: The sustainability of the food system is at the forefront of academic and policy discussions as we face the challenge of providing food security to a growing population amidst environmental uncertainty and depletion, social disruptions, and structural economic shocks and stresses. Crafting a sustainable and resilient food system requires us...

Volcanic Eruptions in the Deep Sea

Creator:: Rubin, Kenneth H., Soule, S. Adam, Chadwick, William W., Jr., Fornari, Daniel J., Clague, David A., Embley, Robert W., Baker, Edward T., Perfit, Michael R., Caress, David W., and Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Volcanic eruptions are important events in Earth’s cycle of magma generation and crustal construction. Over durations of hours to years, eruptions produce new deposits of lava and/or fragmentary ejecta, transfer heat and magmatic volatiles from Earth’s interior to the overlying air or seawater, and significantly modify the landscape and perturb...

Grassland Arthropods Are Controlled by Direct and Indirect Interactions with Cattle but Are Largely Unaffected by Plant Provenance

Creator:: Farrell, Kelly Anne, Harpole, W. Stanley, Stein, Claudia, Suding, Katharine N., and Borer, Elizabeth T.
Abstract:: Cattle grazing and invasion by non-native plant species are globally-ubiquitous changes occurring to plant communities that are likely to reverberate through whole food webs. We used a manipulative field experiment to quantify how arthropod community structure differed in native and non-native California grassland communities in the presence and absence of...
