How Connectedness To Nature Relates To Well-Being Over Time, Amy Knepple Carney Jan 2018

How Connectedness To Nature Relates To Well-Being Over Time, Amy Knepple Carney

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

Correlational and experimental studies have found evidence that connectedness to nature (CN) leads to increases in well-being. Higher CN relates to higher positive affect, lower negative affect, and better health (Herzog & Strevey, 2008; Korpela & Ylen, 2007; Mayer, Frantz, Bruehlman-Senecal, & Dolliver, 2009). Little research, though, has examined the relation of CN and well-being over time. With the lack of longitudinal data, it is impossible to assess how CN might be associated with well-being and health over a person's lifetime. This study is among the first to evaluate CN and well-being with three-time points. Final analyses were conducted on …

Precise Orbit Determination Of Cubesats Using Duty Cycled Gps Observations, Sean Lantto Jan 2018

Precise Orbit Determination Of Cubesats Using Duty Cycled Gps Observations, Sean Lantto

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

GPS can provide and has provided down to sub-centimeter accurate precise orbit determination (POD) for low Earth orbit (LEO) spacecraft. This is achieved using carrier-phase measurements, and for maximum accuracy, continuous tracking is needed to resolve the unknown constant carrier cycle ambiguities. Continuous GPS tracking can be difficult to obtain on small satellites, such as CubeSats, due to their stringent onboard power resources. This often leads to the GPS receiver power duty cycling during operations to allow for more on-board power to be used for other scientific instruments.
