Writing an educational children's book to promote the use of American Sign Language and education about Deaf culture while also providing parents with a resource to learn ASL while spending quality time with their child.
Microbial communities in Arctic coastal lagoons drive biogeochemical cycles at the terrestrial-marine interface and help to determine the fate and form of resources like nitrogen (N) and carbon (C) as they are delivered to the Arctic Ocean. Though rising rates of primary production in the Arctic Ocean are well-characterized, the...
Ninety-two spring-born and 76 fall-born steer and heifer calves
(Hereford and Angus x Hereford) averaging 188 and 255 kg, respectively,
were utilized in a 2x2 factorial arrangement of treatments to study
the effects of zeranol and monensin, alone and in combination, on
growth rate, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics. After...
In "Level Number Sequences for Trees" Flagotet and Prodinger investigate the problem of counting the number of level number sequences associated to binary trees of $n$ binary nodes. I convert this problem into terms of exterior nodes or "leaves" and leaf number sequences. "Polynomial representation" is then defined to address...
Effective storage and release of low-to-moderate temperature thermal energy (e.g. solar thermal or geothermal) could be transformational for applications such as space heating/cooling, domestic hot water, or off-grid cooking. Good candidates for thermal energy storage in this temperature range include latent heat storage (LHS) systems and thermochemical energy storage (TCES)...
This is the final version of an essay on a student's connection to the land as part of their Writing Intensive Course, Forest Engineering FE460 Forest Operations Regulations and Policy Issues. The theme for the essay is the student's choice, but must include the history of the piece of land,...
School districts and educational policymakers need current information on Black parental and primary guardian responses toward the
issue of desegregation. This research focused primarily on the attitudes of Black parents and primary guardians toward their involvement
in elementary desegregated schools. The study attempted to determine
if:
(1) Educational background has...
It is common to characterize adrenergic receptors by placing
them in one of two categories, alpha or beta. The receptors responsible
for adrenergically induced increase in cardiac contractile force
and glycogenolysis are usually classified as beta receptors, but such
a classification is not definitely established. Therefore, an attempt
was made...
