Investigating Timescales of Resurgence at Large Calderas: Post-74 ka Activity at Toba Caldera, Sumatra, Indonesia

Creator:: Mucek, Adonara E.
Abstract:: The Toba Caldera Complex is the youngest resurgent caldera in the last 100 kyrs, formed from four overlapping eruptions starting 1.2 Myrs ago. The last caldera-forming eruption, the Youngest Toba Tuff eruption, occurred ~74 kyrs ago, emitting 2800 km3 of ash and pumice into the atmosphere and forming the caldera...

Insights into the Geochemical Evolution of the Youngest Toba Tuff (Sumatra, Indonesia) Magma Chamber Through the Lens of Zircon-hosted Melt Inclusions

Creator:: Lerner, Allan
Abstract:: Supervolcanic eruptions are among the most catastrophic phenomena on Earth, erupting 100s-1000s of cubic kilometers of magma, and producing devastating local effects and global climate perturbations. The largest supervolcanic eruption of the last 28 Ma was the 74 ka Youngest Toba Tuff (YTT) eruption from Sumatra, Indonesia, which erupted 2,800...

New Applications for Passive Samplers : In-situ Flux and Risk Assessment of Legacy and Emerging Contaminants

Creator:: Tidwell, Lane G.
Abstract:: Passive sampling devices (PSDs) were used to measure air vapor and water dissolved phase concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and oxygenated PAHs (OPAHs) at two different environmentally contaminated sites. Environmental contaminates like PAHs and OPAHs are present in both the atmospheric and aqueous environmental compartments. It is known that...

Fungal colonization of Douglas-fir sapwood

Creator:: Kang, Sung-Mo
Abstract:: The fungi that cause mold and stain of freshly sawn lumber result in millions of dollars in losses to the forest products industry. Stain and mold are typically prevented by either kiln drying or by application of a topical fungicide. While these treatments are effective, kiln drying is costly and...

Transcriptional networks controlled by the fatty acid regulators FAR-1 and FAR-2

Creator:: Bredeweg, Erin L.
Abstract:: Fungi are capable of growth on a wide variety of carbon sources, both living and dead. They can produce an arsenal of enzymes and transporters for harvesting sugars, polysaccharides, amino acids, lipids and micronutrients from their environments [1]. Within the nucleus of a cell, transcription factors (TF) control whether genes...

Toward understanding the nature of the soil microsite in relation to nitrogen and carbon cycling

Creator:: Cliff, John B.
Abstract:: My research has focused on understanding N and C cycling in soils at small scales. Isotope dilution methods commonly used to estimate gross rates of soil chemical transformations assume homogeneous distribution of label. I explored the effects of diffusion limitations on isotope dilution experiments in soil aggregates using spherical diffusion-reaction...

Tracer experiments in a non-uniform porous medium : implications of diffusive mass transfer on the late-time breakthrough behavior

Creator:: Freiherr von Schwerin, Claudius
Abstract:: Mass transfer processes were evaluated in an artificial, non-uniform porous medium with a power law distribution of diffusion rate coefficients obtained from physical characterization of solute and porous medium. Breakthrough curves of several pulse experiments conducted at different velocities were compared (1) to analytical expressions for concentrations at mass transfer...

Systematics of the genus Torrubiella

Creator:: Johnson, Desiree M.
Abstract:: Torrubiella is a genus of entomopathogenic fungi in the Clavicipitaceae (Ascomycota). Species of the genus produce superficial perithecia on a loose mat of hyphae that forms directly on the host. The genus is estimated to contain about 70 species. Torrubiella is hypothesized to be a close relative of Cordyceps because...

Hydro-biogeochemical coupling at the hillslope and catchment scale

Creator:: van Verseveld, Willem J.
Abstract:: The specific objectives of this dissertation are to determine subsurface flow behaviors across different antecedent wetness conditions from a top-down perspective and to mechanistically assess the hydrological controls on DOC and N transport at the hillslope and catchment scale. The study area is a small catchment where hillslopes issue directly...

Systematics and phylogeny of Cordyceps and the Clavicipitaceae with emphasis on the evolution of host affiliation

Creator:: Sung, Gi-Ho
Abstract:: Cordyceps is a genus of perithecial ascomycetes. It includes over 400 species that are pathogens of arthropods and parasites of the truffle genus Elaphomyces. Based on the morphology of cylindrical asci, thickened ascus apices and filiform ascospores, it is classified in the Clavicipitaceae (Hypocreales), which also includes endophytes and epiphytes...
