Patterns Of Abundance Across An Urban-Rural Gradient For Commonly Found Indigenous Arthropods, David Jones
Patterns Of Abundance Across An Urban-Rural Gradient For Commonly Found Indigenous Arthropods, David Jones
Theses and Dissertations
Abstract Proof of concept for a continuous environmental sampling methodology that employs common terrestrial arthropods as environmental samplers was tested by analyzing pitfall, malaise and black light captures over a six month period over a replicated urban-suburban-rural gradient in Central Virginia. All arthropods captured at the nine sites were identified and assigned to aquatic, vegetation, or soil groups based on their association with these microhabitats. To offset variability in arthropod life history patterns and species abundance within habitat types, arthropod categories based on presence/absence data over the six month period were constructed to provide for sampling reliability within each microhabitat …
Tailoring Local Conductivity By The Formation Of Ag Nanoclusters In Sio2 Xerogel Films, Ricky Caperton
Tailoring Local Conductivity By The Formation Of Ag Nanoclusters In Sio2 Xerogel Films, Ricky Caperton
Theses and Dissertations
Porous silicon dioxide thin films were produced via dip-coating and doped with Ag+ by adding AgNO3 to the dipping solution. Nanoparticles were formed within the pores of these films by UV exposure. Nanoparticle formation was confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy (CAFM) showed that the conductivity of the films decreased upon exposure to UV. This decrease in the conductivity is most likely due to the clustering of charge carriers. Initially, Ag+ ions are attached to negatively charged pore walls in a dense packing network. Upon UV exposure (125 mW @ 266 nm), the …
Exploring Impact Of Educational And Economic Factors On National Intellectual Productivity Using Machine Learning Methods, Canon Fazenbaker
Exploring Impact Of Educational And Economic Factors On National Intellectual Productivity Using Machine Learning Methods, Canon Fazenbaker
Theses and Dissertations
The patent process is representative of a nationwide means for innovations and new ideas to be recognized. The U.S. Patents Office, since its inception in 1790, has issued nearly five million patents. These patents span from the U.S. Patent #1, which was for an improvement "in the making of Pot ash and Pearl ash by a new Apparatus and Process" to today's patents which deal with technologies and mediums that were unimaginable at the Patent Offices' inception. The purpose of this study is to determine what social and economic factors at the federal level have the highest impact on national …
Noncovalent Interaction Of Platinum Planar Amine Compounds With Tryptophan: A Strategy To Interfere With P53-Mdm2 Interactions And Targeting Retroviral Zn Finger-Dna Interaction (Hiv Ncp7), Aaron Bate
Theses and Dissertations
Non-covalent interactions involving π-π stacking play an essential role in self-assembly and molecular recognition processes such as protein folding and DNA/RNA-protein selective recognition. The knowledge gained from these studies could provide insight into possible site recognition complexes, inhibiting or mimicking protein-protein or protein-DNA interactions. Based on molecular modeling as well as HOMO and LUMO energies, several chromophores were selected with a variety of ∆ε values (∆ε= |εHOMO,NAcTrp – εLUMO,chromophores|), high and low, to establish a correlating trend with the modeling and experimental data. The corresponding Pt(dien) compounds were synthesized and their ability to stack to N-acetyl tryptophan was evaluated by …
