Construction and numerical simulation of a two-dimensional analogue to the KdV equation

Creator:: Black, Wendy
Abstract:: Arising from an investigation in Hydrodynamics, the Korteweg-de Vries equation demonstrates existence of nonlinear waves that resume their profile after interaction. In this thesis, the classical equations governing wave motion are the starting point for the development of an analogue of the KdV that describes the evolution of a wave...

Selenium and trace metal accumulation in detrital-benthic food webs of lotic and lentic wetlands, Utah, USA

Creator:: Hillwalker, Wendy E.
Abstract:: Concentrations of selenium (Se), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb) and arsenic (As) were measured in the water column, sediment and biota, in conjunction with selected physicochemical data, from representative wetland types at a mining site within Salt Lake County, Utah, USA. The selected field sites included Oolitic...

Using soil data to enhance modeling of forest responses to climate change

Creator:: Peterman, Wendy L.
Abstract:: The over-arching theme of this work is that soil data affect the performance and realism of vegetation models with particular focus on their ability to predict or explain disturbances such as fire or disease. We tested the sensitivity of the Excel version of the 3-PG model to soil properties and...

The impact of a DBT training on the counselor self-efficacy of preservice counselors working with borderline personality disordered clients

Creator:: Bruton, Wendy S.
Abstract:: As the demand for community mental health services grows, more and more counselors-in-training are being asked to face the challenge of working with high needs clients, including clients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Counselors-in-training are entering therapeutic relationships with high-risk clients without training specifically covering BPD client's unique needs. This...

Drivers of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community composition in roots : hosts, neighbors, and environment

Creator:: Phillips, Wendy S.
Abstract:: The vast majority of terrestrial plant species live in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). AMF and plants live in complex networks, with roots of individual plants hosting multiple AMF, and single AMF colonizing multiple plants concurrently. Through the exchange of resources, the two partners of this symbiosis can have...

Testimonios of shared experience : Canadian women athletes and the 1980 Olympic boycott

Creator:: Black, S. Jill
Abstract:: The testimonios of three Canadian women athletes and the 1980 Olympic boycott are presented. The Latin American method of testimonio is adapted as a framework for understanding personal stories. Testimonios written in a series of interpretive narratives and poems--poetic testimonios--represent three women's voices. This study includes three journeys: the research...

Using Narratives to Document Environmental Identities and Connection to Nature : A Case Study of Aquarium Staff and Volunteers

Creator:: Mileham, Michelle A.
Abstract:: Zoos and aquariums are among the best informal education avenues for individuals to further develop conservation beliefs and values. Research documented the presence of conservation messages at aquariums, that visitors expect such messages, and staff and volunteers at conservation organizations increase their conservation-related knowledge and behaviors. This research often focuses...

Design of a single lamina for a microchannel dialyzer with a focus on bubble removal

Creator:: Mohammadi, Mahshid
Abstract:: A microchannel-based hemodialyzer offers a novel approach to hemodialysis practice and holds many promises for improving dialysis treatment efficiency and quality of life for kidney patients. The hollow fiber hemodialyzer, a conventional dialysis device, has certain limitations including non-uniformity of the dialysate flow path which necessitates the use of a...

Petrogenesis of the Steens Basalt : Variation in Source Contributions and Effects of Crustal Passage During the Onset of Columbia River Flood Basalt Volcanism

Creator:: Moore, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Continental flood basalts represent short-lived but immense blasts of mafic magma to the continental crust. The youngest and smallest continental flood basalt worldwide, the Columbia River Basalt, initiated with the eruption of the most mafic member, the Steens Basalt (~16.9 Ma). The Steens Basalt is exposed in southeast Oregon, southwest...

Investigating Provers' Understandings of Combinatorial Proof

Creator:: Erickson, Sarah A.
Abstract:: Enumerative combinatorics is an area of mathematics that is both highly accessible for students and widely applicable to other sciences and areas of mathematics (Kapur, 1970; Lockwood, Wasserman, & Tillema, 2020). One important class of problems in combinatorics is combinatorial proofs of binomial identities, which is a type of proof...
