Some components of the volatiles from rye flour (Secale cereale)

Creator:: Prince, Marion
Abstract:: The volatile components of rye flour were isolated by steam distillation and trapped in cold traps under vacuum. After preliminary tests indicated the presence of carbonyl compounds, the distillate was reacted with 2,4 dinitrophenylhydrazine to convert the carbonyl compounds to their stable derivatives, 2,4 dinitrophenylhydrazones. Three classes of monocarbonyls were...

Generalized modal analysis of electromagnetic- and quantum-waveguide structures and discontinuities

Creator:: Weisshaar, Andreas
Abstract:: Generalized modal analysis techniques for the characterization and modeling of dissipationless planar waveguide structures and discontinuities encountered in microwave and optical integrated circuits, as well as of quantum waveguide structures and devices, are presented. The frequency-dependent transmission properties of the curved microstrip bend are derived by utilizing a second-order perturbation...

Eastward Routing of Glacial Lake Agassiz Runoff caused the Younger Dryas Cold Event

Creator:: Leydet, David J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to analyze an abrupt case of climate change in the past as a means to understand the mechanisms that force climate change. By looking to past analogs of climate change, we hopefully will gain an understanding of these events, which could be used to...

Hawaiian duck (Anas wyvilliana) behavior and response to wetland habitat management at Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge on Kaua'i

Creator:: Malachowski, Christopher P.
Abstract:: The endangered Hawaiian Duck (koloa maoli; Anas wyvilliana), a non-migratory and island-endemic species, experienced a significant population decline during the twentieth century due to factors such as habitat loss, overharvest, introduced mammalian predators, and hybridization with introduced feral Mallards (A. platyrhynchos). A key objective for Hawaiian Duck recovery is to...

Simulating past, present, and future changes in ENSO : a model evaluation and data-model comparison

Creator:: Alder, Jay R.
Abstract:: This thesis presents the results of a formal evaluation of a new AOGCM, GENMOM, demonstrating its ability to simulate present-day climate and ENSO dynamics. The model is applied to simulate climate for the Last Glacial Maximum, deglacial, and Holocene time periods. The model output is evaluated against the best available...

Investigating climate feedbacks across forcing magnitudes and time scales using the radiative kernel technique

Creator:: Jonko, Alexandra
Abstract:: Radiative feedbacks associated with changes in water vapor, temperature, surface albedo and clouds remain a major source of uncertainty in our understanding of climate's response to anthropogenic forcing. In this dissertation climate model data is used to investigate variations in feedbacks that result from changing CO₂ forcing and the time...

Lesbian leaders in action : influencing and transforming community college culture

Creator:: Kenney, Rebecca J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to explore through their own stories and journeys (storjourns), how lesbian leaders influence and transform dominant community college culture. Five lesbian leaders participated who held the position of Director, Associate Dean, Dean, Executive Vice President, and President/Executive Dean. This microethnographical inquiry divulges and makes...

Empire and other stories

Creator:: Gelper, Cynthia H.
Abstract:: This is a collection of eight short stories, all of which deal on some level with alienation and the struggle to find meaning in one's life. Although most of the stories deal with issues related to women or feature female protagonists, I did not set out to create a political...

Torn : A Cluster Analysis

Creator:: Mulatero Ferrando, Oriana
Abstract:: Pornography remains one of the most controversial topics in our culture. Politicians, religious groups, and special interest organizations tend to focus on the ‘effects’ pornography has on those who consume it, and fear that pornography is a threat to public health. The general discourse surrounding pornography is that men produce...

Cartographies of Haunting : Black Feminist Refusal in Toni Morrison’s A Mercy and Octavia Butler’s Kindred

Creator:: Spencer, Megan
Abstract:: This thesis explores the gendered histories of slavery through the concept of haunting in two neo-slave narrative novels: Toni Morrison’s A Mercy and Octavia Butler’s Kindred. I offer readings of these texts through slavery’s geographic and temporal implications, in order to argue that the logics of antiblackness remain a fundamental...
