Bounded Complete Embedding Graphs, Extended Version 

Aust, Jennifer Katherine (2015-07-08)
This is the extended version of my dissertation, "Bounded Complete Embedding Graphs." This version is presented in three parts, each in a separate file. [Part 1] Bounded Complete Embedding Graphs [Part 2] Extension ...

Simulation studies of a recorder in three dimensions 

Giordano, Nicholas J. (2015-10-12)
The aeroacoustics of a recorder are explored using a direct numerical simulation based on the Navier–Stokes equations in three dimensions. The qualitative behavior is studied using spatial maps of the air pressure and ...

Explaining the Railsback stretch in terms of the inharmonicity of piano tones and sensory dissonance 

Giordano, Nicholas J. (2015-10-26)
The perceptual results of Plomp and Levelt for the sensory dissonance of a pair of pure tones are used to estimate the dissonance of pairs of piano tones. By using the spectra of tones measured for a real piano, the effect ...

Central Arizona Project 

Chaney, Philip L (2022-04-18)
This file contains a digital map of the Central Arizona Project (U.S.A.) in Google Earth KMZ format that was produced as part of The IBT Water Project at Auburn University. The Central Arizona Project (CAP) is a complex ...

Reactive transport of trace elements and isotopes in the Eutaw coastal plain aquifer, Alabama 

Lee, Ming-Kuo; Griffin, James; Saunders, James; Wang, Yang; Jean, Jiin-Shuh; 0000-0003-2587-1307 (2022-10-25)
We integrate groundwater geochemistry, mineralogy, and numerical modeling techniques to study the reactive transport of heavy metals and isotopes in the Eutaw coastal plain aquifer, Alabama. Geochemical data show that the ...

Eukaryotic N-Glycosylation Occurs via the Membrane-anchored C-terminal Domain of the Stt3p Subunit of Oligosaccharyltransferase 

Huang, Chengdong; Bhaskaran, Rajagopalan; Mohanty, Smita (2020-07-24)
N-Glycosylation is an essential and highly conserved protein modification. In eukaryotes, it is catalyzed by a multisubunit membrane-associated enzyme, oligosaccharyltransferase (OT). We report the high resolution ...

Global-scale hybrid simulation of cusp precipitating ions associated with magnetopause reconnection under southward IMF 

Tan, B; Lin, Y; Perez, J; Wang, X (2022-09-20)
With a 3-D global-scale hybrid simulation model, we investigate the energy spectra of cusp precipitating ions and issues associated with magnetopause reconnection under a southward IMF. Both the spatial and temporal energy ...

Overlap of the plasmasphere and ring current: Relation to subauroral ionospheric heating 

Gurgiolo, C.; Sandel, BR; Perez, JD; Mitchell, DG; Pollock, CJ; Larsen, BA (2020-06-18)
The overlap of the ring current with the outer plasmasphere is thought to play a major role in storm-time related increases in the subauroral ambient topside electron temperature. Instabilities generated within the overlap ...

Multi-Event Study on the Connection Between Subauroral Polarization Streams and Deep Energetic Particle Injections in the Inner Magnetosphere 

Califf, S; Zhao, H; Gkioulidou, M; Manweiler, J; Mitchell, D; Tian, S; 0000-0002-8800-2128; 0000-0001-8292-7691 (2023-01-25)
Energetic electron flux enhancements for 100s keV energies are often observed at low L shells (L < 4) in the inner magnetosphere during geomagnetic storms. However, protons with similar energies do not penetrate as deeply ...

Are we underestimating the genetic variances of dimorphic traits? 

Wolak, Mathew E.; Roff, Derek A.; Fairbairn, Daphne J. (2022-09-16)
Populations often contain discrete classes or morphs (e.g., sexual dimorphisms, wing dimorphisms, trophic dimorphisms) characterized by distinct patterns of trait expression. In quantitative genetic analyses, the different ...

Propagule size and sex ratio influence colonisation dynamics after introduction of a non-native lizard 

Fargevieille, Amelie; Reedy, Aaron; Kahrl, Ariel; Mitchell, Timothy; Durso, Andrew; Delaney, David; Pearson, Phillip; Cox, Robert; Warner, Daniel (2022-01-28)
1. The composition of founding populations plays an important role in colonisation dynamics and can influence population growth during early stages of biological invasion. Specifically, founding populations with small ...

Aeroacoustics of wind musical instruments 

Giordano, Nicholas (2017-10-24)
This is a record of a dataset deposit.

Life History Aspects of Exyra semicrocea (Pitcher Plant Moth) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) 

Stephens, Jessica D.; Folkerts, Debbie R. (2022-03-03)
With as little as 3% of southeastern Coastal Plain pitcher plant bogs remaining, it is important to understand the life-history aspects of the endemic organisms that comprise this community. In this study, we elucidate ...
