Experimental analysis of subsurface heating and irrigation on the temperature and water content of soils

Creator:: Sepaskhah, Ali Reza
Abstract:: Multiple use of waste heat from power plants may become an important consideration in the development, siting, and certification of these plants. A multiple use system of components that can beneficially utilize waste heat may include home heating and cooling, greenhouses, animal enclosures, open basins for single cell protein production...

Science inquiry as knowledge transformation : investigating metacognitive and self-regulation strategies to assist students in writing about scientific inquiry tasks

Creator:: Collins, Timothy A.
Abstract:: Science inquiry is central to the science education reform efforts that began in the early 1990's. It is both a topic of instruction and a process to be experienced. Student engagement in the process of scientific inquiry was the focus of this study. The process of scientific inquiry can be...

Effects of petroleum mulch on soil water content and soil temperature

Creator:: Kowsar, Ahang
Abstract:: Petroleum mulch applied on the soil surface over a row of planted seeds promotes a more rapid and a more uniform germination of seeds, enhances elongation of seedlings and in some cases increases the yield of the crop. The beneficial effects of petroleum mulch have usually been attributed to increased...

The effects of defoliation on Bromus tectorum seed production and growth

Creator:: Mayer, Kara Hempy
Abstract:: Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) is a widespread exotic weed in the Intermountain sagebrush steppe. An annual grass, it is highly prolific and very competitive with native perennial grass seedlings. A clipping experiment carried out at two cheatgrass-dominated sites (Lincoln Bench and Succor Creek) in eastern Oregon analyzed effects of defoliation...

Spawning chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) two years in a row : reconditioning for repeated gamete collection

Creator:: Mayer, Kent Corey
Abstract:: Spring chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, in the Snake River Basin are listed as endangered under the Endangered Species Act. The typical life history of spring chinook salmon is semelparous. An experiment was performed to see if mature male spring chinook salmon parr could be reconditioned after hand-spawning and spawned in...

Low-velocity matter wave source for atom interferometry produced by Zeeman-tuned laser cooling and magneto-optic trapping

Creator:: Mayer, Shannon K.
Abstract:: A continuous, low-velocity, nearly monochromatic atomic beam is created using laser cooling and two-dimensional magneto-optic trapping. Rubidium atoms from an effusive oven are slowed and cooled using Zeeman-tuned slowing. The scattering force from a counter-propagating, frequency-stabilized diode laser beam is used to decelerate the thermal beam of atoms to a...

Forging their way : the experience of single fathers on a community college campus

Creator:: Cook, Tim S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to understand the experiences of single fathers attending a community college. Single fathers comprise one-fifth of all single parent families, yet little research has been done on this growing segment of the population. A phenomenological approach was utilized to examine the attributes, needs, and...

The influence of participating in a mandatory mixed-format student success seminar on persistence in an urban community college

Creator:: Mendoza, James A.
Abstract:: Over the past twenty years, the national three-year graduation rate for community college students has ranged from 44% to roughly 31% in 2013 (NCES, 2013). As a way to address such low graduation rates, colleges have implemented a myriad of services and programs (i.e., tutoring, mentoring, etc.). Another intervention is...
