Management of powder-post beetles, Dinoderus minutus F. in freshly cut bamboo

Creator:: Garcia, Carlos Manalo
Abstract:: The goal of this project was to develop an integrated pest management strategy for the control of a powder-post beetle (Dinoderus minutus F.). This species causes serious damage in Philippine bamboo. Developmental threshold and thermal constants were examined and natural enemies and ftmgi associated with beetles were investigated. Finally, the...

Water management effects on birdsfoot trefoil seed production

Creator:: García-Díaz, Carlos Alberto
Abstract:: There is no information available on water management of birdsfoot trefoil grown for seed. Information is also not available describing how to minimize seed losses due to shattering in order to obtain consistently high birdsfoot trefoil seed yields. The objectives of this research are to: (i) quantify crop water use,...

Investigating the Effect of Using Mobile Touchscreen Device on Children's Tactile Skills

Creator:: Almurshed, Rana
Abstract:: To users, mobile touchscreen devices have appealing characteristics; among these characteristics is intuitiveness, which leads to mobile devices being used almost everywhere by almost everyone to accomplish almost anything. This statement, to some degree, holds for children too. Despite touchscreen devices’ intuitiveness and popularity, we don’t know much about how...

Essays in semiparametric econometrics

Creator:: Livingston, Olga Voyteshenko
Abstract:: Two essays are focused on semiparametric econometric methods. The first essay investigates applicability of the smooth back tting estimator (SBE) to statistical analysis of residential energy consumption. The second essay attempts to incorporate additivity restrictions into semiparametric stochastic frontier estimation. The procedure described in the first study is used to...

Tracing Sources of Soil Organic Matter Through Time, Across Ecosystems, and Down Soil Profiles

Creator:: Gallo, Adrian Carlos
Abstract:: Soils contain the largest pool of carbon that is actively cycling on human timescales, leading many to view soils as a natural climate solution with multiple co-benefits. The field of soil science is rapidly evolving, but without a unified understanding of soil carbon dynamics. This dissertation leverages two distinct long-term...

From electrophoresis to dielectrophoresis: designing, fabricating, and evaluating an electroformed ratchet type microfluidic dielectrophoresis device

Creator:: Gonzalez, Carlos F.
Abstract:: Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is a separation method in which a non-uniform electric field is used to induce a dipole moment in a suspended particle. If the polarization of the particle is greater than that of the suspending medium, the particle will move towards the region of higher field strength (positive DEP);...

The identification and quantitation of complex polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures in environmental samples using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Creator:: Manzano, Carlos A.
Abstract:: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are ubiquitous contaminants and are mostly products of the incomplete combustion of organic material. PAHs are often found in environmental samples as a complex mixture of isomers. In addition, the same sources that produce complex PAH mixtures also produce other poorly characterized mixtures of organic compounds,...
