Foodservice systems management (FSM) has had impact on the role of dietitians,
not only in the United States (US), but also in Korea. The purpose of the study
was: (1) to delineate and identify the acceptable FSM competencies for Korean
dietitians (KDs), (2) to identify factors which influenced the Korean...
Empirical algorithms for the total absorption coefficient and absorption
coefficient by pigments for surface waters at 440 nm were developed by applying a quadratic formula that combines two spectral ratios of remote-sensing reflectance. For
total absorption coefficients ranging from 0.02 to 2.0 m⁻¹, a goodness of fit was achieved
between...
Recent developments in the field of clinical echocardiography allow the ultrasonographer to objectively quantify both regional and global myocardial function. Regional deformation (Strain) and deformation rate (Strain Rate) are novel indices of ventricular function that can be estimated non-invasively by ultrasonographic interrogation of the heart. Deformation Imaging (DI)represents a family...
Experiments on a novel, microscale hydrogen combustor heat exchanger (µCHX) are presented in this thesis. The µCHX has been designed to efficiently transfer thermal energy to a heat transfer fluid for use in desorption of hydrogen from a metal hydride storage system of a hydrogen-powered fuel cell vehicle. The experimental...

This study identified new compounds with pest control activities. The two sources of candidates that were followed here were the main heartwood extract of Alaska Yellow Cedar (AYC) constituents and several semi-synthetic counterparts. Five compounds were isolated and identified for the first time in AYC heartwood in this research: two...
Several different petrological techniques have been applied to lava flows between
200 to 475,000 years old from Mount Hood, Oregon. Mount Hood is unusual, in comparison to nearby Mount St. Helens and Mount Jefferson, in that it has produced relatively homogeneous lava compositions over 475,000 years. Erupted lavas are mostly...
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...
While fluorochemicals have been detected all over the world and in wastewater
treatment plants, the effect of wastewater effluent on the receiving waters has not been
evaluated. In the first study, the mass flow of fluorochemicals emanating from
wastewater treatment plants along the Glatt River in Switzerland was evaluated. The...
