  • Habitat Connectivity and Conservation Prioritization for Golden-winged Warblers in Northwestern North Carolina

    Creator:
    Woodie, Mikey Bard
    Abstract:
    Golden-winged Warblers are facing population decline and increasing threats in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Experts believe that breeding habitat loss is one of the primary reasons for Golden-winged Warbler decline in the region. In northwestern North Carolina, research is ongoing to understand the availability of suitable breeding habitat for Golden-winged...

  • Ecology of populations of Van Dyke's salamanders in the Cascade Range of Washington State

    Creator:
    McIntyre, Aimee P.
    Abstract:
    The Van Dyke's salamander (Plethodon vandyke,) is a rare species endemic to Washington State. It has been found in cool moist microhabitats along streams, splash zones of waterfalls, and headwater seeps. We explored the association of the Van Dyke's salamander with hydrologic condition, geomorphology, disturbance characteristics, and vegetation structure in...

  • The conserved biology of herpesvirus latency : a study in cyprinid herpesvirus 3

    Creator:
    Reed, Aimee N.
    Abstract:
    Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3), commonly known as koi herpesvirus (KHV), is a member of the Alloherpesviridae and is a deadly pathogen for koi and common carp, Cyprinus carpio. It causes severe gill necrosis and nephritis, dermal ulceration and hemorrhage, and mass mortality of up to 100% of affected fish. Fish...

  • Residential solar energy use: barriers and incentives in a historical perspective

    Creator:
    Lesieutre, Aimee L.
    Abstract:
    Energy crises have triggered increases in solar energy use at various times in the past 2500 years. A surge of interest in solar energy was experienced in the United States in the late 1970's. This interest has since declined. Still, concerns about dependency on imported fuels, the environmental effects of...

  • Statistical enhancement of support vector machines

    Creator:
    Taylor, Aimee E.
    Abstract:
    Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Random Forests (RF) have consistently outperformed other machine learning algorithms on a variety of problems. SVM can be used for classification and regression on many types of data (e.g. nonlinear, high dimensional), but cannot handle missing or mixed data. This research implements a permutation-based variable...

  • Understanding the impact of climate change on snowpack extent and measurement in the Columbia River Basin and nested sub basins

    Creator:
    Brown, Aimee Lyn
    Abstract:
    Shifting climate patterns in the Columbia River basin are affecting snow pack, and, as a result, stream flow throughout the region. In the Oregon Cascades, ever growing populations, and their associated activities, place increasing stress on an already over allocated hydrologic system. Political pressures, including the possibility of renegotiation or...

  • Efficacy of the Wellness Focused “Be Orange Challenge” with Tracking to Promote Healthy Behavior Change

    Creator:
    Miller, Aimee S.
    Abstract:
    Purpose: Many programs are available to engage people in health-promoting behaviors or behavior change, but most target specific behavior outcomes (e.g., weight loss, smoking cessation) rather than wellness. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of a tracking-based health challenge focused on overall wellness, with or without peer support. Methods:...

  • Facility Planning for Large Equine Facilities in the Pacific Northwest

    Creator:
    Glenn, Aimee K.
    Abstract:
    Large equine facilities are comprised of many different departments (areas) that are necessary for the proper care and maintenance of horses. The placement of departments is often inefficient due to the slow growth of equine facilities. As a result, facility layout becomes a crucial aspect requiring explicit consideration because mandatory...
