Visualization in environmental science

Creator:: Winters, Kirsten M.
Abstract:: The VISualization of Terrestrial and Aquatic Systems (VISTAS) software development project began with the proposition that visualization would increase the ability of scientists to explore and communicate their data, especially complex datasets that span multiple spatial and temporal scales. A case study of VISTAS articulates how and why scientists intend...

Adapting computer science technologies to bridge critical gaps in proposed Tox21 risk assessment programs

Creator:: Larkin, Andrew
Abstract:: In 2004 the National Toxicology Program published an article describing their intent to pursue toxicology testing and risk assessment practices solely reliant on high throughput in vitro datasets and in silico modeling for dose-response assessments. Support and contributions form regulatory agencies and a significant portion of the life sciences community...

Reconceptualizing Science Communication: Investigating the Role of Discourse, Identity, and Cultural Models for Socially Controversial Science Topics at the Explore Evolution Exhibit in Three Museums

Creator:: Robichaux, Laia
Abstract:: Science is one of the fundamental building blocks of modern societies, and though some science topics are easily accepted by public audiences, others generate intense social controversy by challenging beliefs that are fundamental to a person’s, or group’s, identity. The Theory of Evolution is one of these “hot-button” issues, as...

Technology and meaning in natural resource management : the story-making role of GIS in the CLAMS project

Creator:: Duncan, Sally
Abstract:: The working hypothesis for this study is that the introduction of GIS technology into the ancient procedures of map-making has changed the map-making context sufficiently to require a revision of the way we think about, learn from, and use maps, specifically in the public involvement process in natural resource management....

Radically reframing environmental problems : The Salmon 2100 case study

Creator:: Lane, David Earl
Abstract:: There are typically two responses to the complex environmental problems of our time: 1) doom and gloom and 2) optimism. There is a lot of doom and gloom in the environmental literature. This literature warns that the future portends danger for humans and their life support systems. But when one...

High-linearity switched-capacitor circuits in digital CMOS technologies

Creator:: Yoshizawa, Hirokazu
Abstract:: In this thesis, novel design techniques have been proposed for implementing high-linearity SC circuits in a standard digital CMOS process. They use nonlinear MOSFET capacitors instead of linear double-poly capacitors. To reduce their nonlinearities, a bias voltage is applied to keep MOSFET capacitors in their accumulation regions. For further reduction...

The role of manganese peroxidase in biomass conversion technologies

Creator:: Yee, Kelsey L.
Abstract:: Currently, the technologies used to separate lignocellulosic biomass into its component parts (cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin) and enzymatically hydrolyze the cellulose to glucose for conversion to ethanol could be improved economically and in terms of efficiency. A major impediment to utilizing the biomass is the presence of residual lignin. The...

Improving Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) Education At Public Research Universities : Considering Students' Perspectives on Teaching-related Factors and Faculty Experiences, Motivations, and Competencies Concerning Teaching Improvement

Creator:: Collins, Jennifer Shalini
Abstract:: The underlying aim of my dissertation was to contribute knowledge that may better support and foster STEM education improvement initiatives at public research universities. The two research studies included in my dissertation advance knowledge per perspectives of key stakeholders targeted by initiatives attempting to foster change, students and faculty. In...

Aging and performance evaluation of marine antifouling coatings

Creator:: Bunn, Malachi D.
Abstract:: Marine biofouling is a major problem in many industries. Shipping has been afflicted with reduced vessel speed and hindered maneuverability due to organisms attaching since the dawn of sailing. To date, the primary method developed to prevent fouling is the application of biocide laden coatings with various release mechanisms. Mass...
