"Stories Matter:" A Narrative Inquiry Exploring First-Generation University Student Persistence
DownloadFall 2014
Though postsecondary participation has increased overall, the rate of participation has risen more sharply for middle-class students compared with working-class students (Knighton & Mirza, 2002). Especially pronounced is Krahn’s (2009) finding that children from families where at least one...

A War over Water: The 1531 English Statue of Sewers and its Impact upon Local Politics, Economies and Environments
Download2012-10-09
SSHRC Awarded IG 2013: When I was writing my SSHRC-supported book, Mills in the Medieval Economy: England 1300-1540 (Oxford University Press, 2004), I noted a curious incidence involving the tearing down of two large watermill complexes on the River Itchen between Southampton and Winchester in...

Fall 2012
The problem of low dissolved oxygen (DO) level has been found to be widespread in ice-covered or polluted rivers. This thesis is targeted at providing some fundamental studies on the remediation measure of injecting air/oxygen via existing effluent diffusers to increase river’s DO level, with two...

McCauley, E., Lewis, Mark A., Lutscher, F.
The question how aquatic populations persist in rivers when individuals are constantly lost due to downstream drift has been termed the “drift paradox.” Recent modeling approaches have revealed diffusion-mediated persistence as a solution. We study logistically growing populations with and...

Linking occurrence and fitness to persistence: habitat-based approach for endangered greater sage-grouse
Download2007
Detailed empirical models predicting both species occurrence and fitness across a landscape are necessary to understand processes related to population persistence. Failure to consider both occurrence and fitness may result in incorrect assessments of habitat importance leading to inappropriate...

This thesis focuses on formulating and analyzing non linear models for microbial dynamics vis-a-vis human and environmental health. Firstly, we develop and investigate a stoichiometric organic matter decomposition model in a chemostat culture that incorporates the dynamics of grazers. This...

Movies of River Water Tracers in ANHA4 NEMO Simulation
2024-01-01
Online passive tracers for river runoff input from the ANHA4 ocean model. EPM015 is was run with Dai and Trenberth for river runoff, and EPM151 was run with A-HYPE for river runoff. Both have a forced atmosphere from CGRF. The difference between the two tracers can also be seen, where positive...

Ichnology concerns the study of interactions between organisms and both soft and hard substrates. Actualistic observation of a modern day river channel molluscan assemblage including unionid and sphaeriid bivalves and gastropods within the Saint John River, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada...

De-Camino-Beck, T., Lewis, M.A.
Understanding the relationship between life-history patterns and population growth is central to demographic studies. Here we derive a new method for calculating the timing of reproductive output, from which the generation time and its variance can also be calculated. The method is based on the...
