  • Impact of Classification Algorithms on Modeling Forest Ground from Point Clouds

    Creator:
    Heine, Carver
    Abstract:
    Projects in forestry and civil engineering depend on accurate information, which is often acquired through remote sensing techniques. One of the remote sensing technologies that has gained importance in the last decade is light detection and ranging (lidar), which describes the surveyed area with 3D points, presented as point clouds....

  • Subcultures of Significance: Urbanity-Rurality, Tightness-Looseness, and Risk Perception

    Creator:
    Frydenlund, Nicole T. L.
    Abstract:
    Tightness-looseness (TL) is a cultural construct that measures the level of social norms present in a community, and the level of scrutiny of deviance from these norms. This construct offers a unique foundation for investigating how norms influence behavioral processes. Research in TL is relatively young, creating a frontier of...

  • Tracking Competitive Season Training Load via TRIMP in a Collegiate Distance Runner : A Case Study

    Creator:
    Anderson, Morgan Jane
    Abstract:
    Objectively quantifying workload is challenging due to a variety of factors. One way to measure workload is by training impulse (TRIMP). TRIMP uses time in physiologically significant heart rate zones to quantify a workload for a given bout of physical activity. Tracking average workload over time can then be used...

  • Hearing Inequality: A Sonification of the Gender Disparity in Computer Science and Engineering

    Creator:
    Cohen, Elyse
    Abstract:
    Sonification, or the “technique of rendering sound in response to data and interactions” [1], is an alternative to visual graphs and has the potential to make data more interpretable and accessible. As a combination of the arts (music) and the sciences (data), sonification is an interdisciplinary tool for connecting people...

  • Gene expression of four carbonic anhydrase paralogs across the symbiotic states of the model temperate sea anemone, Anthopleura elegantissima (Brandt 1835)

    Creator:
    Meier, Emily K.
    Abstract:
    Anthropogenic CO₂ emissions are shifting the global climate equilibrium, causing widespread losses in biodiversity. Anthozoan cnidarians are some of the species most vulnerable to environmental change. Environmental stress causes corals and sea anemones to expel their endosymbiotic algae, which constitute a primary source of nutrition for some Anthozoa. Carbonic anhydrase...

  • A Comparison and Analysis of Selected Holidays in Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States

    Creator:
    Matyeva, Alima
    Abstract:
    Through comparison and analysis of selected holidays in countries with significantly different features (Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and the United States), this study aims to gauge the impact of holiday celebrations in influencing cultural values in those countries studied. K. Zygulski’s classification system for holidays was applied to divide the holidays of...

  • Studies Toward the Synthesis of Natural Product Scaffolds

    Creator:
    Lusk, Jason S.
    Abstract:
    Part 1: A Diels-Alder Approach to the Synthesis of Novel Analogues of the Natural Product Siamenol Due to the prevalence of biaryl motifs in natural product synthesis, the Carter research group has been exploring the utility of a Diels-Alder approach to biaryl synthesis. The Diels-Alder approach involves a [4+2] cycloaddition...

  • Entrapment of Micro-Algae in Modified Alginate Beads for Oxygen and Nutrient Source

    Creator:
    Hughson, Jason D.
    Abstract:
    Presented here is an investigation and comparison of two entrapment methods of algae. Conventional calcium alginate bead entrapment is compared to a recently described modified bead entrapment method, utilizing poly(ethylene glycol) and calcium alginate, which results in void or capillary formation within the beads. It is shown that algal growth...
