We present an investigation into a hitherto unexplored systematic that affects the accuracy of galaxy cluster mass estimates with weak gravitational lensing. Specifically, we study the covariance between the weak lensing signal, ΔΣ, and the ‘true’ cluster galaxy number count, Ngal, as measured within a spherical volume that is void of projection effects. By quantifying the impact of this covariance on mass calibration, this work reveals a significant source of systematic uncertainty. Using the MDPL2 simulation with galaxies traced by the SAGE semi-analytic model, we measure the intrinsic property covariance between these observables within the three-dimensional vicinity of …

Large-scale disturbances, such as megafires, motivate restoration at equally large extents. Measuring the survival and growth of individual plants plays a key role in current efforts to monitor restoration success. However, the scale of modern restoration (e.g., >10,000 ha) challenges measurements of demographic rates with field data. In this study, we demonstrate how unoccupied aerial system (UAS) flights can provide an efficient solution to the tradeoff of precision and spatial extent in detecting demographic rates from the air. We flew two, sequential UAS flights at two sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) common gardens to measure the survival and growth of …
Eco-Anxiety Effects College Students, Alexa Edmundson
Eco-Anxiety Effects College Students, Alexa Edmundson
Department of Environmental Studies: Undergraduate Student Theses
A survey was conducted on the UNL student population to evaluate whether college students, 18-25 year olds who are currently attending an accredited post-secondary school, are experiencing eco-anxiety and if eco-anxiety affects their pro-environmental behaviors. Climate change is taking a toll not only physically on us but also mentally. The mental health of people, especially college students, is not often studied in relation to climate change, but if we are to understand how to create change in this issue then we need to be looking at the whole picture. The hypothesis is that if college students are experiencing eco-anxiety, then …
Charging Forward: A Comparative Analysis Of Facilitators To Electric Vehicle Adoption In Three U.S. States, Abigail Schroeder
Charging Forward: A Comparative Analysis Of Facilitators To Electric Vehicle Adoption In Three U.S. States, Abigail Schroeder
Department of Environmental Studies: Undergraduate Student Theses
Electric vehicles (EVs) are a way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation, but low consumer adoption rates present a challenge. In order to understand what factors may facilitate EV adoption, a comparative analysis of three U.S. states was performed. These states have the highest rates of EV adoption in the country. Thus, studying them provided insights into what may make EV adoption successful. California, Hawaii, and Washington are the states with the highest EV adoption rates. Based on previous research, a list of 12 characteristics that may influence EV adoption was compiled and applied to each state, focusing on …
Educational Influences On Environmental Perception: A Semester Analysis Of The New Ecological Paradigm Scale In Undergraduates, Zoe Zingler
Department of Environmental Studies: Undergraduate Student Theses
This study evaluated the impact of a geography course, GEOG 181: Global Environmental Issues, at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln on students’ endorsement of the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) using a pre-course and post-course NEP scale survey. Analyzing paired responses (n = 40) through t-tests and z-scores, only four of 15 statements had statistically significant shifts observed for the entire sample. However, a targeted analysis of students initially possessing lower endorsement of the NEP—early deniers—revealed significant paradigm shifts post-course. While women initially showed stronger NEP endorsement, men demonstrated notable changes following the course towards endorsement of the NEP. Academic majors, whether …
Authoritarian Privacy, Mark Jia
Authoritarian Privacy, Mark Jia
University of Chicago Law Review
Privacy laws are traditionally associated with democracy. Yet autocracies increasingly have them. Why do governments that repress their citizens also protect their privacy? This Article answers this question through a study of China. China is a leading autocracy and the architect of a massive surveillance state. But China is also a major player in data protection, having enacted and enforced a number of laws on information privacy. To explain how this came to be, the Article first discusses several top-down objectives often said to motivate China’s privacy laws: advancing its digital economy, expanding its global influence, and protecting its national …

Tradition And Transition On The Seward Peninsula: Bridging The Gap Between Potential Mining Development And Indigenous Livelihoods, Ridwan Akogun
Tradition And Transition On The Seward Peninsula: Bridging The Gap Between Potential Mining Development And Indigenous Livelihoods, Ridwan Akogun
Student Publications
Alaska’s Seward Peninsula communities are at a pivotal intersection of natural resource development and Indigenous subsistence livelihoods. As the demand for graphite, a vital component in the transition towards a decarbonized economy increases, a proposal has been made to establish a large graphite mine 60km North of Nome. Thus, these communities find themselves at the forefront of balancing economic development with environmental stewardship and cultural preservation. There remains a notable policy gap in accounting for the impacts of extractive industries on livelihoods in this region and this research integrates specific spatial and temporal land-use data to inform adaptive recommendations.

The Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium (hereafter ANTHC) is a non-profit health organization owned and managed by Alaska Native tribal governments and their regional health organizations. ANTHC had $114 million in grant funded projects and 150 active DEHE projects for 2021 (ANTHC Annual Report, 2021). As of fiscal year 2022 DEHE will have approximately $180 million from the federal infrastructure funding that will more than double the current amount of design and construction projects for the next five to ten years (Murkowski Infrastructure Bill Report, n.d.). Coupled with labor and material shortages across all industrial sectors, ANTHC has a need …
Renewable Energy Policies In Fairbanks Alaska: Benefit-Cost Analysis Of A Carbon Tax And A Renewable Portfolio Standard For Golden Valley Electric Association, Kylie Reese
Theses and Dissertations
The electricity sector is a major producer of carbon dioxide emissions. Specifically in Fairbanks, Alaska. The electricity sector is also a producer of PM2.5 emissions. PM2.5 emissions are particles that form in the air from complex chemical reactions in sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides which are emitted from nonrenewable power plants. Research shows (Wu, 2023) that both carbon emissions and PM2.5 emissions have negative influences on the environmental and social welfare of citizens. Carbon emissions contribute to climate change, while PM2.5 emissions pose serious threats to human health. In 2009, the Fairbanks North Star Borough (FNSB) was declared a nonattainment …

A Path Toward Race-Conscious Standards For Youth: Translating Adultification Bias Theory Into Doctrinal Interventions In Criminal Court, Jessica Levin
A Path Toward Race-Conscious Standards For Youth: Translating Adultification Bias Theory Into Doctrinal Interventions In Criminal Court, Jessica Levin
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
This article demonstrates how advocates can leverage empirical literature regarding adultification bias to craft doctrinal interventions that recognize and remedy the disproportionately harsh treatment of Black youth in the juvenile and adult criminal legal system. Through case examples, all of which I litigated in the Civil Rights Clinic at Seattle University School of Law, I demonstrate how adultification bias was used to explain the racial disproportionality in the transfer of young people to adult court for prosecution, as well as the harshness of the sentences received by young people in both juvenile and adult court. These cases provide roadmaps for …

The Use Of A Short And User-Friendly Questionnaire As A Screening Tool To Identify Potential Gaps In Nutrition Knowledge Of Adolescent Athletes, Roben Ohev Shalom, David Lick, Virginia E. Uhley
The Use Of A Short And User-Friendly Questionnaire As A Screening Tool To Identify Potential Gaps In Nutrition Knowledge Of Adolescent Athletes, Roben Ohev Shalom, David Lick, Virginia E. Uhley
Posters
Nutrition knowledge in adolescent athletes is rarely formally assessed by physicians. Current popular nutrition questionnaires include the CDC’s Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBSS) and the Nutrition for Sport Knowledge Questionnaire (NSKQ). These questionnaires are long and are not optimal to assess nutrition knowledge in adolescent athletes at their preparticipation examinations. A systematic review conducted by Tam et al, showed that questionnaires would benefit from interactive and attractive features including images. A novel nutrition questionnaire was adapted from the NSKQ that was user friendly, short in length, electronic and included images. We hypothesized that through collecting physicians feedback on the questionnaire …

What Impact Did The Tcja Tax Cuts Have On The Manufacturing Sector?, Ryan Parker
Accounting Undergraduate Honors Theses
Throughout this paper I will examine positive effects the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 had on the manufacturing sector. To do this I begin by outlining the key provisions in the TCJA that directly benefit the manufacturing sector. This includes the corporate tax rate reduction from 35 percent to 21 percent, the changes to the repatriation tax for foreign funds, and the treatment for capital assets. I then analyze key metrics including pre-tax income, income tax provision, dividends, changes in retained earnings, and spending on property plant and equipment. I will show the interactions between the increase in …
20 Years In The Making: Do Executive Compensation Clawback Policies Have Claws?, Brielle Mackinnon
20 Years In The Making: Do Executive Compensation Clawback Policies Have Claws?, Brielle Mackinnon
Accounting Undergraduate Honors Theses
Compensation clawback policies allow shareholders to recoup any incentive compensation that executives earn based on reported financial performance metrics that are subsequently determined to be misstated. They were introduced to encourage top executives to take increased responsibility for the financial statements, and to give shareholders increased security when designing compensation contracts for executives. Clawback policies have existed in several different forms for the past 20 years. In this study, I review the history of clawbacks, and discuss the enforcement (or lack thereof) of such provisions by regulators and corporations. The goal of my study is to further the understanding of …
