  • Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

    Creator:
    Guo, Chunxiao
    Abstract:
    Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

  • Three-dimensional gravity analysis of the Pacific-Antarctic east Pacific rise at 36.5°S, 49.8°S and 54.2°S

    Creator:
    Enriquez, Kelly D.
    Abstract:
    Three-dimensional gravity analysis is the process of removing the predictable components from the free-air gravity anomalies and has proven to be useful for interpreting the subsurface structures and active processes at mid-ocean ridges. The three-dimensional effects of the seafloor and Moho topography, assuming a constant crustal thickness and constant crust...

  • Multi-objective Optimization of Reservoir Operation Under Uncertainty with Robust and Flexible Decision Variables

    Creator:
    Hosseini, Parnian
    Abstract:
    Optimization of reservoir operation is involves various competing objectives for a scarce resource (water). To find the optimal operation of reservoirs, it is essential to consider multiple objectives simultaneously. There are various sources of uncertainty associated with the reservoir operation problem that should be considered as well. The overarching goal...

  • Deformation in the Peru Trench, 6⁰-10⁰S

    Creator:
    Prince, Roger Allan
    Abstract:
    Detailed surveys of several segments of the Peru Trench show that the region between 6° to 10⁰ S is an area of recent deformation. Seismic reflection records across the axis of the trench show faulting, uplift, and tilting of the sedimentary fill and the acoustic basement. Uplift of the acoustic...

    Abstract:
    My thesis, entitled “The Clerk’s Tale: Literal Monstrosities and Allegorical Problems,” argues that Chaucer’s Clerk is engaging both sides of a binary system. The Clerk has situated himself in a precarious position between two major schools of thought in the medieval culture, Franciscan and Dominican; the former promotes the will...
