Hygroscopic Growth And Ccn Activity Of Hulis From Different Environments, Thomas B. Kristensen, Heike Wex, Bettina Nekat, Jacob K. Nøjgaard, Dominik Van Pinxteren, Douglas H. Lowenthal, Lynn Mazzoleni, Katrin Dieckmann, Christian Bender Koch, Thomas F. Mentel, Hartmut Herrmann, A. Gannet Hallar

[1] Humic-like substances (HULIS) constitute a significant fraction of aerosol particles in different environments. Studies of the role of HULIS in hygroscopic growth and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) activity of aerosol particles are scarce, and results differ significantly. In this work the hygroscopic growth and CCN activity of water extracts (WE) and HULIS extracted from particulate matter (PM) collected at a polluted urban site (Copenhagen, Denmark), a rural site (Melpitz, Germany) and the remote site Storm Peak Laboratory (Colorado, USA) were investigated. Measurements of inorganic ions, elemental carbon, organic carbon and water soluble organic carbon (WSOC) within the PM confirmed …

An Intense Traveling Airglow Front In The Upper Mesosphere–Lower Thermosphere With Characteristics Of A Bore Observed Over Alice Springs, Australia, During A Strong 2 Day Wave Episode, R. L. Walterscheid, J. H. Hecht, L. J. Galinas, Michael P. Hickey Ph.D., I. M. Reid

Publications

The Aerospace Corporation’s Nightglow Imager observed a large step function change in airglow in the form of a traveling front in the OH Meinel (OHM) and O2 atmospheric (O2A) airglow emissions over Alice Springs, Australia, on 2 February 2003. The front exhibited nearly a factor of 2 stepwise increase in the OHM brightness and a stepwise decrease in the O2A brightness. There was significant (~25 K) cooling behind the airglow fronts. The OHM airglow brightness behind the front was among the brightest for Alice Springs that we have measured in 7 years of observations. The event was associated with a …

Financial Services Consolidation And Performance In New York State Savings And Loan Associations, 2000-2011, Mine Aysen Doyran

Publications and Research

The market structure-performance relationship has been tested for US banking in industrial organization studies. Two divergent hypotheses with regard to this relationship are the Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) Paradigm and Efficient Structure Hypothesis (ESH). This paper presents the test results of both hypotheses with respect to the New York State S&L associations using the time-series and cross sectional (firm-level) data for the most recent period 2000-2010. The results of PEGLS regression indicate that performances of S&Ls vary with respect to operating cost, credit risk and capitalization. Neither market share nor concentration, however, plays a significant role in explaining profitability. The results partially …

The Evolution Of Host Specificity In The Vertebrate Gut Symbiont Lactobacillus Reuteri, Steven Frese

Department of Food Science and Technology: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

The vertebrate gut is home to one of the densest populations of life on Earth. This microbial community has a profound effect on host health, nutrition, development, behavior, and evolution. However, very little is known about how these microbes have evolved with their vertebrate hosts, how and whether they select hosts or how they remain associated with their hosts. Recent work identified Lactobacillus reuteri as an organism that is composed of host-specific sub-populations, each population associated with a different host animal. Representatives from each host-associated population were tested for their ability to colonize gnotobiotic mice, which only rodent strains could …

Social Evolution, Gerald Gaus, John Thrasher

Philosophy Faculty Books and Book Chapters

"It is a mater of dispute how far back evolutionary explanations of social order should be traced. Evolutionary ideas certainly appear in the work of the ancient Greek philosophers, but it seems reasonable to identify the origins of modern evolutionary thinking in the eighteenth century natural histories of civil society such as Rousseau’s Discourse on the Origin and Foundations of Inequality Among Men (1750, Part III), Adam Ferguson’s An Essay on the History of Civil Society (1767), and Adam Smith’s Wealth of Nations (1776, Book III). In these eighteenth century works, the explanation of current social institutions as an unplanned …

Thaumatoporella Ladders Unraveled, Felix Schlagintweit

Studia UBB Geologia

Thaumatoporella (incertae sedis) represents a widespread constituent in Middle Triassic–Cretaceous shallow-marine carbonates of the Tethyan realm and exhibit a wide morphological variability. Seemingly monostromatic cell-layers intermingled with and incorporated into bacinellid crusts (“Bacinella irregularis”) were described as Thaumatoporella bridges or ladders in the literature. This appearance of Thaumatoporella also accounted for the creation of the genus Polygonella ELLIOTT and its misleading comparison with single-layered crustose corallinacean alga, e.g., genus Lithoporella. In fact, these “ladders” belong to the roof part of thaumatoporellaceans encrusting microbial crusts that subsequently became overgrown and thus incorporated. Often a rudimentary thin basal layer …

Characterization Of The Role Of Mitochondrial Function During Tumor Development And Muscle Wasting, Xiao Wang

Open Access Dissertations

Mitochondria play important roles in multiple cellular processes including energy metabolism, cell death, and aging. Regulated energy production and utilization is critical in maintaining energy homeostasis in normal cells and functional organisms. However, mitochondria go through a series of morphological and functional alterations during carcinogenesis. The metabolic profile in transformed cells is altered to accommodate their fast proliferation, confer resistance to cell death, or facilitate metastasis. On the organism level, mitochondrial function is crucial especially in tissues that require high energy supply, such as brain and skeletal muscle. Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implied in various neurodegenerative disorders and deteriorating chronic …

Statistical Inference When Using Data Adaptive Estimators Of Nuisance Parameters, Mark J. Van Der Laan

U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series

In order to be concrete we focus on estimation of the treatment specific mean, controlling for all measured baseline covariates, based on observing n independent and identically distributed copies of a random variable consisting of baseline covariates, a subsequently assigned binary treatment, and a final outcome. The statistical model only assumes possible restrictions on the conditional distribution of treatment, given the covariates, the so called propensity score. Estimators of the treatment specific mean involve estimation of the propensity score and/or estimation of the conditional mean of the outcome, given the treatment and covariates. In order to make these estimators asymptotically …
