Factors Affecting Black-footed Ferret Populations within the Great Plains Region of North America: A Case Study

O Criador:: Hodges, Rodney J.
Abstract:: The black-footed ferret is a meso-predator within the Great Plains region of North America. Before the 1900s, black-footed ferret populations were self-sustaining in large ecological patches throughout the geographical range of the Great Plains. During the 1900s, various factors such as the systematic extermination of prairie dogs (the primary food...

A Comparative Analysis of Literature Search Results for Chinook Restoration Project Evaluation Between 2012 and 2022 Western Pacific Studies in California, Oregon, and Washington

O Criador:: Clark, Erica Jennifer
Abstract:: Pacific salmon are an integral part of ecosystems, industry, culture, and food source. Rapid declines and extirpation in many populations and species have caught the interest of environmentalists, scientists, recreational anglers, commercial fishers, general public, and economists. Billions of dollars have been spent to restore, return, improve, sustain dwindling populations...

Purification of cyclotron-produced 89Zr for its use in diagnostic radiopharmaceutical labeling

O Criador:: Knaus, Clinton W.
Abstract:: Production of 89Zr serves as a crucial preliminary step for exploring Zr-chelates, determining their stability constants, and advancing radiolabeling methodologies for monoclonal antibody based theranostics. 89Zr is typically produced by the irradiation of natural yttrium targets, a process extensively documented in scientific literature. Two primary methods are employed: the 89Y(p,n)89Zr...

Evaluating the Efficacy of Biophilia in K-12 Access Interpretive Programs in California State Parks

O Criador:: Grand, Parker
Abstract:: The purpose of this capstone is to provide a reassessment of the emergence of biophilia in interpretive programs conducted in California State Parks. More specifically, this project examines what effect natural resource interpretive programming has on the emergence of biophilia practices and if participants are more likely to be more...

Examining Community Narratives of Keep Virginia Beautiful’s “Green Grants” Initiative

O Criador:: Bailey, Jessie
Abstract:: This essay examines community narratives around Keep Virginia Beautiful's Green Grants initiative. Green Grants is a signature annual program that awards grants to organizations throughout Virginia in support of projects aligned with one of Keep Virginia Beautiful’s three pillars: recycling, litter prevention, and community beautification. The primary research questions are...

Understanding invasive conifer seed structure and viability to inform treatment efforts

O Criador:: Vautrin, Andy
Abstract:: This paper examines the invasion of exotic wilding conifers on the native tussock grasslands of Aotearoa New Zealand. The investigation includes two studies and aims to better understand the structure of Pinus contorta seeds across tree crown positions and the viability rates of P. contorta seeds produced during a trees...

An analysis of tree maintenance responsibility in California municipalities – do tree ordinances help or hinder urban tree canopy distribution?

O Criador:: Franco, Yael
Abstract:: As urban populations increase, the presence of well-maintained trees provide a cost-effective solution to combat the effects of climate change, specifically the urban heat island effect. Unfortunately, the associated ecological, social and economic benefits of trees are not distributed equitably in the landscape due to lingering effects of redlining policies....

Possible contributors to variation in cultured cheese produced in different geographical locations when typical cheese production controls are employed

O Criador:: Fels, Shawn
Abstract:: Variation in cheese quality due to geographic location is important to cheese producers, consumers, and retailers on a global level. Understanding the impacts of geographic location of cheese plants may be useful to businesses for marketing, cost reduction, and quality improvement. Many aspects of variation due to geography have been...

Optimizing the Membrane Architecture and Interrogating the Stability of Hybrid Lipid-coated Gold Nanoparticles for Biological Studies and Applications

O Criador:: Kmetz-Gonzalez, Gemma
Abstract:: Nanoparticles are a hugely diverse category of material that have a wide variety of biomedical applications, and developing tools for biological research with high cellular uptake is critical to their effective application. However, rarely is attention paid to the exact mechanism by which this is occurring, with most studies focusing...

Master Negotiators and Creative Problem Solvers: A Survey of South African Women & Water-Use Case Studies

O Criador:: Kirwan, Christina E. M.
Abstract:: Through a desk-top analysis, this research shows that South African women have gained and utilize specialized skills, behaviors, and adaptations through their daily activities which are useful when applied to water resource management. Further, South African women are shown to build and draw on social capital as a way to...
