Radar Backscatter Measurement Accuracy For A Spaceborne Pencil-Beam Wind Scatterometer With Transmit Modulation, David G. Long, Michael W. Spencer

Faculty Publications

Scatterometers are remote sensing radars designed to measure near-surface winds over the ocean. The difficulties of accommodating traditional fan-beam scatterometers on spacecraft has lead to the development of a scanning pencil-beam instrument known as SeaWinds. SeaWinds will be part of the Japanese Advanced Earth Observing Satellite II (ADEOS-II) to be launched in 1999. To analyze the performance of the SeaWinds design, a new expression for the measurement accuracy of a pencil-beam system is required. In this paper the authors derive a general expression for the backscatter measurement accuracy for a pencil-beam scatterometer which includes the effects of transmit signal modulation …

During the semester of implementation, the teacher kept daily field notes, collected student papers, evaluated transcripts of video recordings, and completed regular exploratory writing in an attempt to analyze and understand the teacher's role and …

Congestive Heart Failure And Quality Of Life: Can Patient Education Make A Difference?, Mary Beth Perniz

Master's Projects

Congestive heart failure is a widely prevalent sequel to other chronic medical and cardiovascular conditions. It is of growing concern to nurse practitioners in the primary care setting. Quality of life, as perceived by an individual, is directly affected while living with a chronic terminal illness. This pilot project conducted in a solo medical practice examines the effect of a patient education program on the quality of life of patients living with congestive heart failure. Basic patient education regarding anatomy, physiology, daily body weights, medication management, sodium restriction, regular exercise, and stress reduction was taught to a sample of patients …

Parish Nursing: A Resource And An Opportunity, Janice W. Swing

Master's Projects

Do you know people in the community who do not understand their health needs? Are you aware of people who do not have access to health services? Parish nursing draws on the strengths of people in a congregation to promote physical, mental, and spiritual health for the congregation and its local community. Hospital nurses may want to use parish nurses as a valuable resource for discharge planning. Community nurses may also need the support of parish nurses for clients. Additionally, for experienced nurses who belong to a faith community, serving as a parish nurse satisfies a need for something new. …
