Linkages between mangrove forests and coral reefs : quantifying disturbance effects and energy flow between systems

Creator:: Granek, Elise F.
Abstract:: Interface habitats are considered valuable natural systems, tightly linked to adjacent habitats through the flow of matter and energy. However, there is limited research on mechanisms of connectivity such as movement of organisms and particulate matter and ways in which anthropogenic disturbance to interface habitats may affect immediate and adjacent...

New insights into the biology of theropod dinosaurs

Creator:: Quick, Devon E.
Abstract:: There is little, if any, direct fossil evidence of the cardiovascular, respiratory, reproductive or digestive biology of dinosaurs. However, a variety of data can be used to draw reasonable inferences about the physiology of the carnivorous theropod dinosaurs (Archosauria: Theropoda). Extant archosaurs, birds and crocodilians, possess regionally differentiated, vascularized and...

A summative evaluation of a dolphin assisted therapy program for children with special needs

Creator:: Dilts, Rachel M.
Abstract:: This dissertation reviews the literature on the specialty area of dolphin assisted therapy (DAT), a subfield of animal assisted therapy (AAT). To date the literature on the effectiveness of DAT has been mixed although a majority of it is positive. The study was conducted with 40 parents whose children were...

Development and application of a new passive sampling device : the lipid-free tube (LFT) sampler

Creator:: Quarles, Lucas W.
Abstract:: Contaminants can exist in a wide range of states in aqueous environments, especially in surface waters. They can be freely dissolved or associated with dissolved or particulate organic matter depending on their chemical and physical characteristics. The freely dissolved fraction represents the most bioavailable fraction to an organism. These freely...

Enhancing social-emotional and character development for youths' success : a theoretical orientation and an evaluation using a cluster-randomized design

Creator:: Snyder, Frank J.
Abstract:: Interest in social-emotional and character development (SECD) programming has intensified in recent years. SECD-related programs often seek to enhance a variety of health-related outcomes by addressing multiple influences and embracing a comprehensive approach that includes youth, school personnel, families, and communities. Alongside a comprehensive approach arises the need for a...

Development of a lexicon for staling aromas in North American lager and analysis of consumer preference and difference

Creator:: Edwards van Muijen, Christina Veronique
Abstract:: Staling in beer is inevitable. Oxidation and increased temperatures are the main causes of stale flavors in bottled beers. Since 1934, research has been done to identify compounds and pathways involved in creating stale flavors. Although many research papers report stale flavors, there is not a lexicon per se of...

Group-scheduling problems in electronics manufacturing

Creator:: Geloğullari, Cumhur Alper
Abstract:: This dissertation addresses the "multi-machine carryover sequence dependent group-scheduling problem with anticipatory setups," which arises in the printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturing. Typically, in PCB manufacturing different board types requiring similar components are grouped together to reduce setup times and increase throughput. The challenge is to determine the sequence of...

Do running and fatigued running relate to tibial stress fractures?

Creator:: Sasimontonkul, Siriporn
Abstract:: Tibial stress fractures are common in runners. However, it is unclear what factors are associated with tibial stress fractures. This study aimed to investigate 1) magnitudes of bone contact forces occurring while running 2) whether or not repeated application of running loads is sufficient to explain tibial stress fractures and...
