Hydrodynamic And Biochemical Impacts On The Development Of Hypoxia In The Louisiana-Texas Shelf - Part 1: Roles Of Nutrient Limitation And Plankton Community, Yanda Ou, Z. George Xue
Faculty Publications
A three-dimensional coupled hydrodynamic-biogeochemical model with multiple nutrient and plankton functional groups was developed and adapted to the Gulf of Mexico to investigate the role of nutrients and the complexity of plankton community in dissolved oxygen (DO) dynamics. A 15-year hindcast was achieved covering the period of 2006-2020. Extensive model validation against in situ data demonstrates that the model was capable of reproducing vertical distributions of DO and spatial distributions of bottom DO concentration, as well as their interannual variations. The study demonstrates that bottom DO dynamics and hypoxia evolution are significantly influenced by both physical processes and local biochemistry, …

A Fur Family Protein Bosr Is A Novel Rna-Binding Protein That Controls Rpos Rna Stability In The Lyme Disease Pathogen, Sajith Raghunandanan, Raj Priya, Fuad Alanazi, Meghan C. Lybecker, Paula Schlax, X. Frank Yang
All Faculty Scholarship
The σ54-σS sigma factor cascade plays a central role in regulating differential gene expression during the enzootic cycle of Borreliella burgdorferi, the Lyme disease pathogen. In this pathway, the primary transcription of rpoS (which encodes σS) is under the control of σ54 which is activated by a bacterial enhancer-binding protein (EBP), Rrp2. The σ54-dependent activation in B. burgdorferi has long been thought to be unique, requiring an additional factor, BosR, a homologue of classical Fur/PerR repressor/activator. However, how BosR is involved in this σ54-dependent activation remains unclear and perplexing. In this study, we demonstrate that BosR does not function as …

Secure Attachment Styles And Depression In Adolescents With Co-Rumination As A Moderator, Kimberly Murray
Secure Attachment Styles And Depression In Adolescents With Co-Rumination As A Moderator, Kimberly Murray
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Depression among adolescents has increased over the years and can affect development and potentially lead to substance abuse, self-injurious behavior, and suicide. Adolescents with secure attachments to parents have been found to have fewer symptoms of depression. Co-rumination with friends has shown to be related to positive quality in friendships due to self-disclosure between friends; however, co-rumination also is related to an increase in depression. The purpose of this quantitative study is to examine whether adolescent’s attachment style with parents is associated with depression and whether this association is moderated by co-rumination with friends. The theories that were used to …

Evaluation Of Health Information Exchange Policies In Hospitals When Using Electronic Health Records, Deltalyn West
Evaluation Of Health Information Exchange Policies In Hospitals When Using Electronic Health Records, Deltalyn West
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
The U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Health Insurance Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) policies have transformed how health information is currently exchanged. Health information is exchanged through health information exchange portals, which require technical and physical safeguards. Protected health information must be secure at all times in an acute or outpatient hospital setting. Registered Health Information Administrators (RHIAs) review updates provided by HIPAA and HITECH to ensure that patient data are not exchanged inappropriately. There is a research gap in the lack of evaluation for health information exchange (HIE) policies in hospitals, as well …

“Who Do You Say That I Am?”: Literary Portrayal Of Religious Experience, William Wood
“Who Do You Say That I Am?”: Literary Portrayal Of Religious Experience, William Wood
Masters Theses
Literature is one of the primary means through which God has revealed Himself to the world. Christian writers, therefore, should be bold to portray their God in and through the religious experiences of their characters. Evaluating classic and contemporary literature, four distinct methods of portraying religious experience may be described, each with varying levels of flexibility and faithfulness. Works of literature such as fantasy fiction may include any and all of these methods, even while that literature pursues other themes. In this thesis, an Artist Statement describes the included work of fiction, with its literary context, impetus, and personal significance. …

Mi Ofrenda, Bonita Vasquez
Mi Ofrenda, Bonita Vasquez
Masters Theses
This thesis examines the role of the Dia de los Muertos holiday in wasteful spending, food waste, and environmental waste in the United States due to its food-centered traditions and commercialized competitions. As the holiday has become more mainstream, the once-homebound practices have expanded into large, drawn-out festivals nationwide. Articles on the holiday’s traditions, as well as studies on waste, have been reviewed. The analysis showed that the traditions have evolved and that food waste directly affects financial and environmental waste. This paper concludes that the holiday’s practices can be adjusted to help reduce food, financial, and environmental waste.

The Importance Of Being Your Authentic Self, Aleathea G. Higginbottom
Masters Theses
The vision for this paper is to encourage others through the references, expert advice, and a memoir full of experiences. Also, to dive into the realm of self-discovery and be the best version of the authentic self-possible and allow those beautiful pixels of gifted expression to shine through that have been pushed back or forgotten. There is a freedom that authenticity brings which cannot be described. Breaking free from a life of the expectations of others and living true to oneself brings forth a happier person, spirit, soul, and body.
