Effect Of Discriminative Plant-Sugar Feeding On The Survival And Fecundity Of Anopheles Gambiae, Hortance Manda, Louis C. Gouagna, Woodbridge A. Foster, Robert R. Jackson, John C. Beier, John I. Githure, Ahmed Hassanali Oct 2007

Effect Of Discriminative Plant-Sugar Feeding On The Survival And Fecundity Of Anopheles Gambiae, Hortance Manda, Louis C. Gouagna, Woodbridge A. Foster, Robert R. Jackson, John C. Beier, John I. Githure, Ahmed Hassanali

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

Background. A previous study showed for Anopheles gambiae s.s. a gradation of feeding preference on common plant species growing in a malaria holoendemic area in western Kenya. The present follow-up study determines whether there is a relationship between the mosquito's preferences and its survival and fecundity. Methods. Groups of mosquitoes were separately given ad libitum opportunity to feed on five of the more preferred plant species (Hamelia patens, Parthenium hysterophorus, Ricinus communis, Senna didymobotrya, and Tecoma stans) and one of the less preferred species (Lantana camara). The mosquitoes were monitored daily for survival. Sugar solution (glucose 6%) and water were …


Microimprinting And Ferroelectric Properties Of Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride-Trifluoroethylene) Copolymer Films, Lei Zhang, Stephen Ducharme, Jiangyu Li Oct 2007

Microimprinting And Ferroelectric Properties Of Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride-Trifluoroethylene) Copolymer Films, Lei Zhang, Stephen Ducharme, Jiangyu Li

Stephen Ducharme Publications

Poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] copolymer films have been patterned by microimprinting with excellent quality of pattern transferring. Ferroelectricity of the imprinted films has been confirmed by ferroelectric hysteresis and surface potential measurement, and very good correlation is observed between remnant polarization and surface potential of the imprinted films. Imprinted P(VDF-TrFE) films show high remnant polarization and high poling-induced surface potential when the imprinting temperature is around 140 °C, suggesting that 140 °C is the optimal imprinting temperature for P(VDF-TrFE) films. The patterned ferroelectric P(VDF-TrFE) films can be used for a wide range of applications.


Bats Of Anguilla, Northern Lesser Antilles, Hugh H. Genoways, Carleton J. Phillips, Scott C. Pedersen, Linda K. Gordon Oct 2007

Bats Of Anguilla, Northern Lesser Antilles, Hugh H. Genoways, Carleton J. Phillips, Scott C. Pedersen, Linda K. Gordon

University of Nebraska State Museum: Mammalogy Papers

Five species of bats are known in the literature from Anguilla—Monophyllus plethodon, Brachyphylla cavernarum, Artibeus jamaicensis, Natalus stramineus, and Molossus molossus. These records are scattered in the literature as parts of simple reports of the species from the island or included in revisions of taxonomic groups that occur on the island, but the first comprehensive study of bats of Anguilla is presented herein. In addition to providing morphometric and natural history information for the five species of bats previously known from the island, records of a species of bat new to the fauna of the island of Anguilla—Tadarida …

"Questions About Stuff You Don't Normally See On A Map:" A Study Of Sixth-Graders' Abilities To Understand Quantitative Thematic Maps, Stephanie Lynn Gaspers Oct 2007

"Questions About Stuff You Don't Normally See On A Map:" A Study Of Sixth-Graders' Abilities To Understand Quantitative Thematic Maps, Stephanie Lynn Gaspers

Dissertations and Theses

Middle school students work with many types of maps in school, however most maps they use are qualitative thematic maps that only show differences in kind as compared to quantitative thematic maps that show differences in amounts. This thesis investigates sixth-grade students' abilities to analyze three types of thematic maps: dot maps, choropleth maps, and graduated circle maps. Two hundred and two Oregon sixth-graders were tested on their abilities to interpret map symbology, make inferences from the data, categorize values into regions, and ask geographic questions concerning data distributions. The results indicate that students can understand these three quantitative thematic …

Faculty Publications

We carry out two searches for periodic gravitational waves using the most sensitive few hours of data from the second LIGO science run. Both searches exploit fully coherent matched filtering and cover wide areas of parameter space, an innovation over previous analyses which requires considerable algorithm development and computational power. The first search is targeted at isolated, previously unknown neutron stars, covers the entire sky in the frequency band 160-728.8 Hz, and assumes a frequency derivative of less than 4×10-10Hz/s. The second search targets the accreting neutron star in the low-mass x-ray binary Scorpius X-1 and covers the frequency bands …

The Impossibility Of A Prescriptive Paretian, Robert C. Hockett Oct 2007

The Impossibility Of A Prescriptive Paretian, Robert C. Hockett

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Most normatively oriented economists appear to be “welfarist” and Paretian to one degree or another: They deem responsiveness to individual preferences, and satisfaction of one or more of the Pareto criteria, to be a desirable attribute of any social welfare function. I show that no strictly “welfarist” or Paretian social welfare function can be normatively prescriptive. Economists who prescribe must embrace at least one value apart from or additional to “welfarism” and Paretianism, and in fact will do best to dispense with Pareto entirely.
