Party System Institutionalization and Accountability for Corruption in Latin America: The Cases of Brazil and Chile

Creator:: Pinilla, Juan P.
Abstract:: In the wake of the ``third wave'' of democratization, scholars and practitioners were optimistic regarding the ease with which countries could adopt democratic norms and institutions. However, after four decades of democracy, many competitive regimes have not improved government probity or developed strong forms of accountability. Levels of economic and...

Genetic and morphological evidence suggests cryptic speciation within the Torrent Sculpin, Cottus rhotheus, across the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Nicholas, Benjamin P.
Abstract:: Dwelling on the bottom of large rivers to high alpine streams, freshwater sculpins (genus Cottus) occur in high densities across the Pacific Northwest, with 21 currently recognized species found in the Pacific Northwest. Sculpin fill many ecological roles, with some species serving as important prey sources, and others competing with...

Relationships Between the Media’s Rhetoric and the Sentencing of White-Collar Criminals

Creator:: Houdeshell, Victoria A.
Abstract:: The legal landscape surrounding the prosecution of white-collar criminals has changed drastically over time, as has the media’s rhetoric, but the resulting sentence lengths have been inconsistent. This study utilizes historical newspaper articles to review the changes in media rhetoric over time and how this relates to the sentencing of...

Seeing the Ocean For the Whales: How Whales Get Lost in the Sea of Human Perceptions

Creator:: McKinnon, Haley
Abstract:: Humans have always been fascinated with whales; from prominent features in mythology, to stories of terrifying monsters on the high seas, to globalized utility, to symbolic wildness and radical environmentalism, to figures and statistics, how have human relationships with whales been understood throughout time? Because humans have a need to...

Comparison of R404A condensation heat transfer and pressure drop with low global warming potential replacement candidates R448A and R452A

Creator:: Jacob, Tabeel A., Matty, Ethan P., and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: The objective of this paper was to measure and compare the heat transfer coefficient and pressure drop of R404A and two potential replacement candidate refrigerants with a lower global warming potential, R448A and R452A. Experiments were conducted inside a 4.7 mm horizontal tube at mass fluxes ranging from 100 to...

Experimental Investigation of In-Tube Condensation of Low GWP Refrigerant R450A using a Fiber Optic Distributed Temperature Sensor

Creator:: Jacob, Tabeel A., Matty, Ethan P., and Fronk, Brian M.
Abstract:: Heat transfer coeﬃcients and frictional pressure drop values are experimentally measured during condensation of R134a and its proposed low global warming potential (GWP) replacement, R450A. R450A is a non-ﬂammable zeotropic mixture of R134a and R1234ze (42/58% by mass). Experiments were conducted in a horizontal tube (ID = 4.7 mm) for...

Metabolomics analysis identifies effects of nitrate and exercise in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Creator:: Wolfe, Mandy
Abstract:: Objectives: Nitrate, found abundantly in green leafy vegetables, may improve exercise performance by increasing the availability and utilization of metabolic fuels that require less oxygen for energy production. However, it is not known if this performance effect occurs at the peak exercise intensity. We hypothesize that supplemental nitrate treatment will...

Is Cover Type Use by Dabbling Ducks at Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge, Arkansas, Related to Energy Availability?

Creator:: Kreisler, Skye E.
Abstract:: Managers of U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Bald Knob National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge) in central Arkansas want to provide sufficient habitat resources to meet its population objectives for wintering waterfowl. Nutrient reserves acquired during the wintering period appear to support spring migration and subsequent reproductive success for some species,...

Fishery-specific solutions to seabird bycatch in the U.S. West Coast sablefish fishery

Creator:: Good, Thomas P., Jannot, Jason E., Melvin, Edward F., Gladics, Amanda J., Suryan, Robert M., and Guy, Troy J.
Abstract:: Bird scaring lines (BSLs) protect longline fishing gear from seabird attacks, save bait, reduce incidental seabird mortality and are the most commonly prescribed seabird bycatch mitigation measure worldwide. We collaborated with fishermen to assess the efficacy of applying BSL regulations from the demersal longline sablefish fishery in Alaska to a...

Evaluating the size and extent of paleolakes in central Tibet during the late Pleistocene

Creator:: Shi, Xuhua, Furlong, Kevin P., Kirby, Eric, Meng, Kai, Marrero, Shasta, Gosse, John, Wang, Erchie, and Phillips, Fred
Abstract:: Subhorizontal lake shorelines allow a geodynamic test of the size and extent of a hypothesized paleolake in central Tibet, the East Qiangtang Lake (EQL), during the last interglacial period (marine isotope stage (MIS) 5e). Reconstructions based on relict lake deposits suggest that the EQL would have been ~400 m deep...
