Kinematics and Dynamics of a Model Eastern-boundary Poleward Undercurrent

Creator:: Duran, Rodrigo
Abstract:: A carefully calibrated primitive-equation model from 41°N to 48°N is used to study the poleward undercurrent off the US west coast. Chapter 2 describes poleward flow over the slope from Eulerian and Lagrangian perspectives. The model is robust, in the sense of several characteristics being qualitatively consistent with observational and...

Olivine and plagioclase-hosted melt inclusions and their application to determining parental arc magmas

Creator:: Kohut, Edward John
Abstract:: Three broadly interrelated problems of critical significance to the proper interpretation of melt inclusion (MI) data are addressed in this thesis. The first issue, the petrogenesis of anorthitic plagioclase phenocrysts in MORB lavas, has relevance due to the presence of numerous MI in many high-An feldspars. This problem was addressed...

Magmatic processes beneath mid-ocean ridges : insights from mineral and glass chemistry in plagioclase ultraphyric basalts

Creator:: Lange, Amy E.
Abstract:: Prior to eruption at mid-ocean ridges, melts must travel through >6 km of crust from their origin in the mantle. The final composition of the melts is dependent on both the melting conditions and magmatic processes within the crust. While mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) glasses are commonly used to infer...

Physiological, proteomic, and whole-genome transcriptional responses of Nitrosomonas europaea to heavy metals (Zn²⁺,Cd²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Hg²⁺) and cyanide : identification of heavy metals and cyanide stress response genes

Creator:: Park, Sunhwa
Abstract:: Nitrosomonas europaea (ATCC19718) participates in the biological removal of nitrogen from wastewater by oxidizing ammonia to nitrite, the first step in nitrification. This bacterium is sensitive to heavy metals (Zn²⁺, Cd²⁺, Cu²⁺, and Hg²⁺) and cyanide, compounds commonly encountered in wastewater treatment plants. Therefore, we characterized physiological and transcriptional responses...

Photobiological hydrogen production from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 encapsulated in sol-gel processed silica

Creator:: Dickson, David J.
Abstract:: Photobiological hydrogen production from live cells of the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 encapsulated in silica gel was investigated. Hydrogen is a dense energy carrier with potential to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, provided a renewable and sustainable means of production can be achieved. Under certain conditions, Synechocystis sp. PCC...

Characterization of acid sensing ion channel (ASIC) in mouse olfactory bulb

Creator:: Kratzer, Eric Martin
Abstract:: This study examined the role of acid- sensing ion channels (ASICs) in interneuron synaptic modulation. ASICS are ultra fine discriminators of acidic conditions in the neuronal microenvironment. Each ASIC subunit isoform has innate, subtly different electrophysiological properties and tissue distributions. Structurally, ASICs may form homo- or heteromeric channels, yielding combinatorial...

Analysis of the thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus as a model organism for carbon sequestration, biofuel, and biomaterial production

Creator:: Eberly, Jed O.
Abstract:: The thermophilic cyanobacterium Thermosynechococcus elongatus was examined for the ability to sequester CO₂ while producing hydrogen (H₂), polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB), lipids, and glycogen. H₂ was produced at a maximum rate of 188 nmol H₂ mg Chl a⁻¹ hr⁻¹. Hydrogen production occurred in the presence of methyl viologen but the cells were...

The Phenomenological Experience of Shame in the Context of Physical Activity

Creator:: Rogers, Kim A.
Abstract:: Not all experiences in physical activity, exercise, and sport are positive. Losing, getting injured, making a mistake, and not measuring up can all elicit a variety of highly negative emotions, including shame. To make matters worse, individuals often cope with shame in maladaptive ways––magnifying, suppressing, or ignoring the experience––which can...

General studies of temperature effects on an obligate psychrophile Vibrio marinus

Creator:: Haight, Roger Dean
Abstract:: Vibrio marinus, strain MP-1, was shown to grow from pH 6.7 to 8.5, with an optimum at 7.3. Growth was inhibited below salinity 10%₀ and above 60%₀ . The upper temperature limit of growth was 20 C, and growth was very rapid with aeration at 15 C. Heating of the...
