Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S., and new approaches to control cancer are constantly sought. This dissertation is comprised of two parts: (i) improving the uptake and retention of gadolinium in tumors for potential gadoliniumneutron capture therapy (Gd-NCT) and (ii) integration of gemcitabine or...
For coaches to qualitatively analyze the performance of sport skills as executed by their
students, they must possess an internal image of the desired skill against which to make
comparisons (Hoffman, 1983; Pinheiro & Simon, 1992). Leas and Chi (1993) have
indicated that there are differences between novice and expert...
We inventoried lichens in Lake Clark (LACL) and Katmai (KATM) National Parks and Preserves. We assembled the known information on lichens in these parks by combining field, herbarium, and literature studies. Our results provide baseline data on lichen occurrence that may be used in resource condition assessments, vulnerability assessments, long-term...
The dependent transfer of a traveler with disabilities on board an aircraft places the transferors, as well as the traveler, at risk of disabling lower back injury. This risk is increased on board an aircraft due to the confined space in which the transfer takes place. The purpose of the...
Rights based management (RBM) regimes in fisheries might prevent the rent-dissipation associated with open access as fishers are enabled to coordinate efforts. In this article, I empirically explore the effects of introducing two spatially distinct RBM reforms in the Swedish shrimp fishery at two different points in time during the...
By broad consensus, Open Data presents great value. However, beyond that simple statement, there are a number of complex, and sometimes contentious, issues that the science community must address. In this review, we examine the current state of the core issues of Open Data with the unique perspective and use...

Quantification and comparison of morphological changes over the last ~300 y in Oregon salt marshes provide valuable insights into the tectonic, hydroclimatic, and anthropogenic processes shaping this important intertidal zone. Understanding of the rates and drivers of salt marsh change contextualizes intertidal habitats within the sediment routing system (i.e., source...
