Effects Of Sample Size And Ageing Error On Estimates Of Sustained Yield, Lewis G. Coggins

Fisheries

A Monte Carlo simulation model of an exploited age-structured fish population was constructed, to evaluate the effects of sampling and ageing the catch on estimates of population parameters from catch-age analysis with auxiliary information and resultant estimates of sustained yield. A factorial experimental design was used where input parameters were varied among: small (100), medium (300) and large (900) catch sample sizes; high and low levels of ageing precision; and a range of ageing biases. Ageing bias and precision had dramatic effects on estimated sustained yield: positive ageing bias and ageing imprecision generally caused under-estimation of sustained yield, while negative …

A New Approach To Probing Large-Scale Power With Peculiar Velocities, Hume A. Feldman, Richard Watkins

Dartmouth Scholarship

We propose a new strategy for probing the power spectrum on large scales using galaxy peculiar velocities. We explore the properties of surveys that cover only two small fields in opposing directions on the sky. Surveys of this type have several advantages over those that attempt to cover the entire sky; in particular, by concentrating on galaxies in narrow cones, these surveys are able to achieve the density needed to measure several moments of the velocity field with only a modest number of objects, even for surveys designed to probe scales >∼100h⁻¹Mpc. We construct mock surveys with this …

Concept Vectors: A Synthesis Of Concept Mapping And Matrices For Knowledge Representation In Intelligent Tutoring Systems, Mark L. Dyson

Theses and Dissertations

A review of the literature relating to intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) reveals that the bulk of research to date is focused on the student, and on methods for representing the knowledge itself. From student models to learning schemas to presentation methods, comparatively little attention has been paid to the problem of educators attempting to build viable lesson plans for use in an ITS environment--yet when this problem is addressed in the literature, it is recognized as a potentially daunting one. This thesis addresses the problem of ITS lesson plan development by proposing a practical, computable approach for knowledge engineering that …

Global Energetic Neutral Atom (Ena) Measurements And Their Association With The Dst Index, A. M. Jorgensen, Harlan E. Spence, M. G. Henderson, G. D. Reeves, M. Sugiura, T. Kamei

Physics & Astronomy

We present a new global magnetospheric index that measures the intensity of the Earth's ring current through energetic neutral atoms (ENAs). We have named it the Global Energetic Neutral Index (GENI), and it is derived from ENA measurements obtained by the Imaging Proton Spectrometer (IPS), part of the Comprehensive Energetic Particle and Pitch Angle Distribution (CEPPAD) experiment on the POLAR satellite. GENI provides a simple orbit-independent global sum of ENAs measured with IPS. Actual ENA measurements for the same magnetospheric state look different when seen from different points in the POLAR orbit. In addition, the instrument is sensitive …

Dimethyl (±)-(1s*,2r*,3s*)-[3-Phenyl-1-(N-Phenylcarbamoyloxy)-2, 3-Epoxypropyl]-Phosphonate, T. Boehlow, A. De La Cruz, N. Rath, C. Spilling

Chemistry & Biochemistry Faculty Works

The crystal structure of the racemic title compound, C18H20NO6P, m.p. 428-431 K, has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The title compound consists of a tetrahedral P atom bonded to two methoxy groups, and an alkyl chain. The alkyl chain was substituted at position 1 with a carbamate and with an epoxide at positions 2 and 3. The relative configuration of the 1-carbamate and 2,3-epoxide substituents was confirmed as anti (1S,2R,3S). The crystal structure contains an enantiomeric pair with two intermolecular hydrogen bonds in a 14-membered ring. The hydrogen bonds are formed between the P=O of one enantiomer and the N-H …

Nanoscale Imaging Of Domain Dynamics And Retention In Ferroelectric Thin Films, Alexei Gruverman, H. Tokumoto, A. S. Prakash, S. Aggarwal, B. Yang, M. Wuttig, R. Ramesh, O. Auciello, T. Venkatesan

Alexei Gruverman Publications

We report results on the direct observation of the microscopic origins of backswitching in ferroelectric thin films. The piezoelectric response generated in the film by a biased atomic force microscope tip was used to obtain static and dynamic piezoelectric images of individual grains in a polycrystalline material. We demonstrate that polarization reversal occurs under no external field (i.e., loss of remanent polarization) via a dispersive continuous-time random walk process, identified by a stretched exponential decay of the remanent polarization.

Electro-Deposition Of Polymer Chains On An Adsorbing Wall: Density Profiles And Wall Coverage, Grace M. Foo, Ras B. Pandey

Faculty Publications

Growth of polymer density in an electro-deposition model of polymer chains on an impenetrable wall is studied on a two dimensional discrete lattice using a Monte Carlo simulation. Polymer-polymer repulsion and polymer-wall attraction for the adsorbing wall (along with the neutral and repulsive interactions) are considered in an external field. Effects of the field strength (B), temperature (T), and chain length (L-c) on the density profile of the polymer chains and wall coverage are investigated. The spatial density profile shows onset of oscillation near the wall at a characteristic field (B-c) which depends on chain length and temperature, In low …

Measurement Of The Focal Properties Of A Magnetic Electron Lens Using The Shadowgraph Method, Luis Thomas Almaraz

Dissertations and Theses

A method of experimentally determining the properties of a magnetic electron lens is presented. The method uses the shadows cast by two meshes, one placed in front of the lens and one behind the lens, to study the properties of the image of a point source. The lens properties are then calculated from the image properties. The paraxial values of focal length and focal distance as well as their spherical aberrations, are determined. The relationship between image and lens properties are discussed. The method is used here for the first time in determining the focal properties of a magnetic lens.
