Evaluation_of_Shear_Resistance_of_Reinforced_Cob_Thesis_Presentation_-_Katherine_Britsch.pdf

Creator:: Britsch, Katherine and Britsch, Katherine R.
Abstract:: Cob, similar to adobe, is an earthen building material made of soil, sand, and straw. Although cob was used to build homes in England centuries ago, it has reemerged as a sustainable and relatively inexpensive, alternative building material. A possible solution for housing in impoverished nations, cob needs to be...

Ocean acidification is causing increased predation on Mytilus californianus by specialist and generalist crabs

Creator:: Toner, Miranda M.
Abstract:: Ocean acidification is negatively impacting organisms that use calcium carbonate to form their shells. Increasing OA conditions are putting a strain on these calcareous animals by weakening their shells, thus causing them to become more vulnerable to predation. Worsening shell integrity may lead to a decline in hard-shelled prey populations...

Numeric Benchmark Study of Plate Vibration Experiments in Air and Water

Creator:: Britsch, Karl R.
Abstract:: A set of experimental plates were characterized to understand their dynamic response in both air and water; in support of work performed at the Hydro-Mechanical Fuel Test Facility and the Global threat Reduction Initiative. In an attempt to gain further insight into the vibration of the experimental test plates, a...

Ocean Acidification Leads to Broadening of Crab Predators and Faster Predation Rate on Mussels

Creator:: Corliss, Katherine M., Toner, Miranda M., and Britsch, Melissa
Abstract:: Ocean acidification is caused by the dissolved carbon dioxide in the oceans lowering the amount of free carbonate ions. This is turn, affects the ability of calcifying organisms like mussels to build thick shells to protect against predation. Mussels are often preyed upon by both specialist crabs, like Red Rock...

Effects of ocean acidification on growth rate, calcified tissue, and behavior of the juvenile ochre sea star, Pisaster ochraceus

Creator:: Britsch, Melissa L.
Abstract:: Anthropogenically-induced increases in the acidity of the ocean have the potential to seriously harm marine calcifying organisms by decreasing the availability of carbonate (CO32−) used to make shells. I tested the effects of lowered pH on juvenile Pisaster ochraceus, an intertidal sea star and keystone predator in the eastern Pacific...

Evaluating the Toxicity of Organophosphate Flame Retardants in Zebrafish

Creator:: Britsch, Kimberly A.
Abstract:: Flame retardants are in many home products including couches, chairs, and electronics. The most commonly used flame retardants contained polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) until 2004, when the majority of these chemicals were phased out. PBDEs were found to be persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic to both humans and the environment. Organophosphate...

Examining Relationships Between the Family Stage of Change Survey and the Family Nutrition Physical Activity Survey among Hispanic and Non-Hispanic Families

Creator:: Navarrete, Ricardo, Jr.
Abstract:: Family influence in the home environment has been linked to children’s nutrition and physical activity behaviors. However few tools exist to identify family level behaviors and families’ readiness to change those behaviors, particularly for populations at high risk for obesity such as Hispanics. This study summarizes the relationships of similar...

Quantitative evaluation of left atrial volume and function by one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional echocardiography in a population of normal dogs

Creator:: LeBlanc, Nicole L.
Abstract:: Linear M-mode (1D) and later 2-dimensional (2D) measurements of the left atrium (LA) are commonly been used to assess LA size in veterinary studies despite the fact that studies in human subjects have shown that LA volume (LAV) more accurately reflects LA size than linear measurements due to the complex...
