Opportunities and Limitations in Achieving Real-Time Observation of Soil Nitrate

Creator:: Auld, Ryan A.
Abstract:: There are many possible benefits that can arise from the ability to take real-time measurements of soil water nitrate concentrations in a field, from ecological to agricultural to industrial reasons. In order to achieve this, we adapted a NitraLED sensor with a ceramic porous cup in order to allow diffusion...

Utilization of ground peanut husk as an alternative fiber material for particleboard

Creator:: Newton, Jacob A.
Abstract:: This research examined the potential for using peanut husk as a fiber alternative to wood in the production of melamine-formaldehyde (MF) particleboard. MF resin was used to produce panels with one, three, six, nine or 12 percent resin contents. Modulus of Rupture (MOR), Modulus of Elasticity (MOE), Internal Bond (IB)...

Effects of Xanthohumol on Biomarkers of Metabolic Syndrome in Obese Rats

Creator:: Moreno Luna, Arlyn Y.
Abstract:: Flavonoids are a large family of compounds synthesized by plants that have a common chemical structure. It is believed that the health effects of fruits and vegetables are primarily due to dietary flavonoids content. Current research indicates that dietary flavonoids show promise for mitigating and/or preventing chronic conditions associated with...

Introduction of a Mathematical Model to Characterize Relative Risk of Snakebite Envenoming, a Neglected Tropical Disease

Creator:: Kim, Soyeon
Abstract:: Snakebite envenoming is a neglected tropical disease that has received increased research attention in the past few years. However, snakebite prevalence and impact in India has been a neglected area of study, despite the high disease burden in this region. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches to studying snakebite processes are...

A Partial Proof of Bertrand's Theorem

Creator:: Musgrove, John F.
Abstract:: In this paper, we provide a thorough proof of most of Bertrand's Theorem. Using Arnold's book "Mathematical methods of classical mechanics" as a backbone and calculus methods demonstrated by Jovanović in his article "A note on the proof of Bertrand's theorem," we show that for masses in a central field...

Reason as Race : Enlightenment Voyages of Discovery and their Effect on 18th Century Racial Discourse

Creator:: Parker, Katherine A.
Abstract:: The proper way to order knowledge and find truth about the natural world in the eighteenth century lay in one’s ability to correctly learn and employ the quality of reason. While all had the right to seek reason, only a privileged few achieved its proper use, creating an intellectual elite...

Studying the most effective modes of marine science communication on plastic pollution in the oceans

Creator:: Burton, Simone A.
Abstract:: The ocean provides many ecosystems services and yet humans have viewed the ocean as a black hole for trash since the 1950s. With recycling not getting to the source of the problem, smarter consumer choices are being targeted, specifically choices centered around the use of plastic. Thus efficient, useful communication...

Ecology and distribution of red crossbill call types in western Oregon

Creator:: Centanni, Caleb
Abstract:: Red Crossbills (Fringillidae: Loxia curvirostra), irruptive finches which feed on conifer seeds, have long presented an evolutionary conundrum. Variable morphology and vocalizations in the species can be classified into several flight call types, which may be discrete lineages. The key conifer hypothesis suggests that each type diverged by specializing on...

Freeze-thaw cycles in permafrost soils and their impacts on the climate: A literature review

Creator:: Bergmann, Maya K.
Abstract:: Climate change is occurring at an increasingly rapid rate, with impacts heightened in the cold regions of the world including the Arctic. Warming effects are widespread, with one impacted process – freeze-thaw cycles – increasing in frequency and potentially triggering additional changes in permafrost soils that have previously acted as...
