Electronic structure-selectivity trends for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonium on 3d transition metals

Creator:: Marks, Rylee
Abstract:: Nitrate is a toxic surface and ground water contaminant that poses human-health and ecological hazards. Contamination is anthropogenically sourced to over-amendment of ammonia-based fertilizers, in turn generated by the most carbon intensive chemical process in use today. Electrochemical approaches offer a green alternative to transform harmful waste nitrate into value-added...

Does the classroom experience differ for toddlers with developmental delay or disability?

Creator:: Ellis, Emily M.
Abstract:: High-quality child care enables children to learn necessary foundational skills, but children with disabilities, compared to typically developing children, are less likely to experience high levels of classroom quality. Further, teacher’s perceptions of children with developmental delay or disability may be skewed, which may lead to a lower-quality classroom experience....

An Analysis of U.S. News Media Coverage of E-Cigarettes: Does a Youth Epidemic Make a Difference?

Creator:: Winett, Julia R.
Abstract:: Rates of electronic cigarettes (or “e-cigarettes”) use among youth are so high that the Surgeon General declared them to be of “epidemic proportions” (A Report of the Surgeon General, 2012). If these rates go unchanged, e-cigarettes will likely be responsible for the creation of a new generation of combustible cigarette...

A Bayesian Treatise on the Replication Crisis in Science

Creator:: Gibson, True E.
Abstract:: Over the past decade, it has come to light that many published scientific findings cannot be reproduced. This has led to the replication crisis in science. Many researchers feel that they can no longer trust much of what they read in scientific journals, and the public is becoming ever more...

Bioactivity Screening and Gene Activation Strategies in Fungi

Creator:: Coddington, Nathan C.
Abstract:: Natural products from plants, bacteria, and fungi play an important role in society. Over the last 35 years, natural products and their derivatives have inspired over 60% of all FDA approved small-molecule drugs, and are among the top prescribed therapeutics.1-2 Fleming’s discovery of the fungal antibiotic penicillin started the “Golden...

Response of Stream Macroinvertebrate Community to Canopy-opening Manipulations

Creator:: Mackaness, Cedar
Abstract:: Stream light availability is an important factor influencing aquatic food webs. In forested headwaters, stream algal production is often highly light-limited, so an increase in light enhances benthic algal growth, which in turn increases food availability for primary consumers in the stream. In forested headwater streams, light availability is almost...

The Eight Elements for Identifying the Story of Snow White: From Grimms’ to DEFA to Disney

Creator:: Johnston, Chloé Z.
Abstract:: The Grimms’ Brothers left their mark on history when they published their first edition of the Kinder- und Hausmärchen gesammelt durch die Brüder Grimm (Nursery and Household tales Collected by the Brothers Grimm) in 1812. Among these newly published tales was that of Snow White. Within the paradigm of the...

The production of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) over time with change in substrate type, temperature, and mineral soil inclusion

Creator:: Stanton, Alexandria H.
Abstract:: Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC) originates from organic matter. Climate and vegetation have been found to alter DOC production. The goal of this study was to determine where the differences in DOC production originate from. Mineral soil and substrate including maple leaves, needles, old wood, and sticks were collected from the...

Studying abroad and vocabulary use in impromptu essays

Creator:: Mitchell, Kathleen
Abstract:: Spending time in a German speaking country may aid in vocabulary acquisition and production. This study hypothesized a concrete link between written language use and experiences abroad. Intermediate German students’ vocabulary uses in impromptu essays were evaluated by counting the number of total word, unique words, and content words. This...

Student Understanding and Generalization of Functions from Single to Multivariable Calculus

Creator:: Kerrigan, Sarah
Abstract:: Students struggle with the concept of functions and the notation associated with it in various mathematical contexts. This thesis investigates student understanding of function notation through their generalization of single variable functions to multivariable functions in a variety of situations. Semi-structured student interviews were conducted and analyzed through a framework...
