Quantifying the Unproductive Water Lost as Evaporation from Different Irrigation Designs by Analysis of the Soil Stable Water Isotope Compositions

Creator:: Al-Oqaili, Firas M.
Abstract:: The knowledge about the intensive agricultural irrigation is very limited, but the use of irrigation is rapidly increasing. As an outcome, the sympathetic ecosystem is accepting modern irrigation that will play an essential function in the present and future for agricultural products. My dissertation will display the modification for investigation...

Part I: Synthetic Studies toward C10-functionalized Lycopodium Alkaloids. Part II: Exploration of the Pummerer Cyclization and Its Application to the Total Syntheses of the Abietane Diterpenoids

Creator:: Li, Xin
Abstract:: This dissertation is separated into two parts according to the two major distinct research projects. In Part I, the full account of synthetic studies toward C10-functionalized lycopodium alkaloids is described. In Part II, the detailed discussion on the exploration of the Pummerer cyclization methodology and its application to the total...

New Graphite Intercalation Chemistry with Ethers and Amines

Creator:: Zhang, Hanyang
Abstract:: Novel donor-typed ternary graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) are synthesized and characterized containing (1) pyrrolidinium cations with DMSO co-intercalates; (2) alkali metal cations with crown ether co-intercalates; and (3) alkali metal cations with polyethylene glycol co-intercalates. Structural and compositional data are obtained for the stable products. A new ether-amine co-intercalate exchange...

Integrated Spatial and Temporal Stochastic Model in Radiation Biology : Design, Implementation, and Application

Creator:: Liu, Ruirui
Abstract:: Mathematical modeling plays a pivotal role in understanding the mechanism of radiation-induced cellular effects, and also in quantifying the radiation risk to the cell. However, there are still compelling challenges facing the conventional modeling in radiobiology, such as lacking a generalized theory structure of quantifying target effect and non-target effect...

Phylogenetic Identification of Pathogenic and Endophytic Fungal Populations in West Coast Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) Foliage

Creator:: Daniels, Hazel A.
Abstract:: Douglas-fir provides social, economic, and ecological benefits in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). In addition to timber, forests support abundant plant and animal biodiversity and provide socioeconomic viability for many rural communities. Products derived from Douglas-fir account for approximately 17% of the U.S. lumber output with an estimated value of $1.9...

Total Synthesis of Tryptamine Alkaloids from the Arundo and Leuconotis Genera

Creator:: Ferreira, Andrew
Abstract:: The first part of this manuscript is about the total synthesis of the Arundo donax bis(indole) natural products. The A. donax alkaloids were prepared using the first example of an ynindole Diels–Alder reaction. Each were then separated, isolated, and determined to have stable enantiomeric conformations at room temperature (Chen, J.;...

Femtosecond Stimulated Raman Studies of Excited State Structural Events

Creator:: Tang, Longteng
Abstract:: Femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy (FSRS) is an ultrafast vibrational technique which allows rapid collection of Raman spectra with simultaneously high temporal and spectral resolution. With the recent development of FSRS methodology, three FSRS techniques (conventional, tunable, and anti-Stokes) have been implemented in our laboratory to dissect the excited state structural...

Canopy microclimates and epiphytes : Examining dynamic patterns and influences

Creator:: Heffernan, Elise
Abstract:: Old-growth forests are structurally complex in both vertical and horizontal dimensions. This complexity arises from biological characteristics, typically branch and leaf structure, but also includes epiphytes with varying form and function. I characterized the biomass and species composition of epiphytes along the vertical axis of an old-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii)...

Ethnic, Age, and Gender Comparisons in Mediation of Socio-Cultural and Intrapersonal Influences on BMI by Physical Activity and Dietary Intake among California Adolescents

Creator:: Le, Binh T.
Abstract:: In the U.S., childhood overweight and obesity has grown to epidemic levels. The National Survey of Children’s Health (NSCH) found that nationwide, approximately 32% of children 10–17 years old are identified as overweight, over half of them (nearly 17%) are obese. This is a concern because these rates continue to...

Interactions between Oenococcus oeni and Brettanomyces bruxellensis during winemaking and consequences for wine quality

Creator:: DuBois, Aubrey E.
Abstract:: The growth of Brettanomyces bruxellensis is a major cause of wine spoilage due tothe production of the volatile phenols 4-ethylphenol (4-EP) and 4-ethylguaiacol (4-EG), derivatives of p-coumaric acid and ferulic acid. During the winemaking process,some microorganisms can impact the concentration of the 4-EP precursors pcoumaricand coutaric acid (tartaric acid-esterified p-coumaric...
