Perceived Discrimination and Hypertension: Contextual and Mediating Factors

Creator:: Sims, Kendra D.
Abstract:: Marginalized groups in the United States are often diagnosed with hypertension at younger ages, contributing to their excess burden of cardiovascular disease. These disparities in blood pressure control do not appear to be fully accounted for by individual risk factors, such as health behaviors or genetic differences. Experiences of discrimination...

Humpback Whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) Calling Behavior In Southeast Alaska : A Study In Acoustic Ecology And Noise

Creator:: Fournet, Michelle E. H.
Abstract:: Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are a widely distributed baleen whale species, well known for their diverse acoustic behavior. On high-latitude foraging grounds, humpback whales produce a suite of non-song vocalizations (“calls”) in concert with foraging and social behavior. In this dissertation I investigated the role of calls in the acoustic...

Synergistic effects of wild ungulates and management intensification suppress native plants and promote exotics - Dataset

Creator:: Stokely, Thomas D.
Abstract:: This dataset consists of native and exotic plant species metrics, including cover, richness, relative abundance and responses to the exclusion of wild ungulates and herbivory. The data were used for the manuscript: "Synergistic effects of wild ungulates and management intensification suppress native plants and promote exotics", published in the journal...

An Exploration of the Research Capacity Building Potential of Informal Higher Education Marine Science Programs in an International Context

Creator:: Moskel, Jennifer M.
Abstract:: Informal higher education science learning programs are increasingly being used as a tool to build scientific research capacity. However, there is low understanding of the impact that these programs on their target audiences, which is important to future capacity building efforts and program design. The purpose of this research project...

Structure-Property Relationships of Supported Palladium and Rhenium Oxide for the Alkane Rearrangement of Hydrocarbons and Deconstruction of Polyethylene via Tandem Dehydrogenation and Olefin Metathesis

Creator:: Moore, Selena C.
Abstract:: The rapid accumulation of plastic waste in landfill, waterways and oceans is becoming a critical problem, one that current recycling technologies are not capable of solving. Recent proposed approaches in the depolymerization of waste plastics employ an Olefin-Intermediate Process (OIP), where feedstocks like polyolefin plastics are ‘activated,’ producing an olefin...

Tracing Sources of Soil Organic Matter Through Time, Across Ecosystems, and Down Soil Profiles

Creator:: Gallo, Adrian Carlos
Abstract:: Soils contain the largest pool of carbon that is actively cycling on human timescales, leading many to view soils as a natural climate solution with multiple co-benefits. The field of soil science is rapidly evolving, but without a unified understanding of soil carbon dynamics. This dissertation leverages two distinct long-term...

The Various Roles of LC8, a Human Hub Protein, in the Viral Replication Cycle

Creator:: Donner, Brianna L.
Abstract:: The phosphoprotein (P protein) in viruses of the Mononegavirales order is known to play an essential role in the completion of viral replication mechanisms. The P protein is involved in stabilizing the viral polymerase and nucleoprotein during RNA transcription and replication, regulating nascent RNA encapsidation by the nucleoprotein, and mediation...

Chronic Toxicological Effects in Daphnia magna from Exposure to PMMA Nanoplastics

Creator:: Brown, Hans
Abstract:: Plastic pollution is an ever-increasing environmental threat. As large-scale plastics break down to form nanoscale plastics, it is essential to investigate their effects on freshwater ecosystems. With many plastic nanoparticle (NP) studies favoring the effects of common polystyrene (PS) plastics, a gap is formed for other common plastic types like...

Larval development in the Pacific oyster and the impacts of ocean acidification : differential genetic effects in wild and domesticated stocks

Creator:: Durland, Evan, Pierre De Wit,, Meyer, Eli, and Langdon, Chris
Abstract:: The adaptive capacity of marine calcifiers to ocean acidification (OA) is a topic of great interest to evolutionary biologists and ecologists. Previous studies have provided evidence to suggest that larval resilience to high pCO2 seawater for these species is a trait with a genetic basis and variability in natural populations....

Temporally balanced selection during development of larval Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) inherently preserves genetic diversity within offspring

Creator:: Durland, Evan, De Wit, Pierre, and Langdon, Chris
Abstract:: Balancing selection is one of the mechanisms which has been proposed to explain the maintenance of genetic diversity in species across generations. For species with large populations and complex life histories, however, heterogeneous selection pressures may create a scenario in which the net effects of selection are balanced across developmental...
