Navigating the Jungle: An Investigation of Older Adults’ Quests for Governmental Information
DownloadFall 2016
Government information interactions are inevitable at many points in our lives; life events and milestones often intersect with the need for governmental programs and services information that will help or facilitate the resulting life transitions. This qualitative research study takes a...

Projecting boreal bird responses to climate change considering uncertainty, refugia, vegetation lags, and post-glaciation history
DownloadSpring 2016
Often referred to as North America’s bird nursery, the boreal forest biome provides a productive environment for breeding birds, supporting high species diversity and bird numbers. These birds are likely to shift their distributions northward in response to rapid climate change over the next...

Bleeding during pregnancy affects as many as one in four pregnancies with roughly half of these resulting in pregnancy loss. An interpretive descriptive design was employed to explore the research question: “How do women with bleeding in early pregnancy describe their experience of waiting in the...

The goal of top-k ranking is to rank individuals so that the best k of them can be determined. Depending on the application domain, an individual can be a person, a product, an event, or just a collection of data or information for which an ordering makes sense. In the context of databases, top-k...

Uncertainty in Life Cycle Assessments of Well-to-Wheel Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Transportation Fuels Derived from Various Crude Oils
DownloadFall 2016
Growing concern over climate change has created pressure on the oil and gas industry to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Several life cycle assessment (LCA) studies have examined various crude oils in an attempt to determine which have the lowest and highest well-to-wheel (WTW) GHG...

Uncertainty in Probabilistic Open Pit Slope Stability Analyses: Implications for Reliability-Based Designs
DownloadSpring 2024
The presence of uncertainty is acknowledged in various fields of Engineering. Also, there are many sources of uncertainties. In geotechnical engineering, probabilistic slope stability analysis (PSSA) is a tool used to quantify parameter uncertainty. It achieves this by considering any strength...
