Geometry and construction history of a complex intrusive center in the shallow crust, Mount Pennell, Henry Mountains, Utah
(East Carolina University, 2014)Large igneous intrusions grow from incremental emplacement of relatively small batches of magma. The Henry Mountains have been the subject of investigation because multiple, well-exposed intrusive centers are present on ... -
Geometry and Construction History of the Copper Ridge Laccolith, Mount Ellen, Henry Mountains, Utah
(East Carolina University, 2015)The Copper Ridge laccolith is an asymmetric tongue-shaped intrusion located on the southeastern margin of Mount Ellen in the Henry Mountains, Utah. The late-Oligocene to early-Miocene igneous rocks have no syn- or ... -
Geometry and Construction of Upper Crustal Intrusions; Sawtooth Ridge, Henry Mountains, Southern Utah.
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)The plumbing systems of volcanos are commonly constructed by interconnected, upper crustal sheet intrusions (i.e. dikes and sills). Active systems and the processes that contribute to their construction are difficult to ... -
Geometry and Progressive Development of a Shallow Crustal Intrusive Complex, Mount Hillers, Henry Mountains, Utah
(East Carolina University, 2014)The Henry Mountains of southeastern Utah are five topographic domes, each of which is a separate mid-Tertiary shallow crustal intrusive complex comprised of a cluster of component igneous intrusions. The intrusions were ... -
Geometry of the universe and its relation to entropy and information
(2013-09-16)In an effort to investigate a possible relation between geometry and information, we establish a relation of the Ricci scalar in the Robertson-Walker metric of the cosmological Friedmann model to the number of information ... -
Geomorphology of Dune Blowouts, Cape Cod National Seashore, MA
(East Carolina University, 2013)Dune blowouts are common erosional features that develop in dune fields worldwide. At Provincelands dunes in Cape Cod National Seashore, blowouts are eroding into shore parallel transverse dunes and the trailing arms of ... -
Geophysical characterization of onsite wastewater treatment system effects on groundwater quality, eastern North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)Onsite wastewater treatment systems (OWS) are a potential non-point source of pollution that can result in water quality degradation in groundwater and surface water. Locating OWS wastewater plumes in the subsurface often ... -
Geophysical Detection of On-site Wastewater Plumes in the North Carolina Coastal Plain, USA
(East Carolina University, 2014)Nonpoint source pollution (NPS) continues to be the leading cause of water quality degradation in the United States. On-site wastewater systems (OWS) contribute to NPS; however, due to the range of system designs and ... -
German Composers and the Evolution of Horn Playing
(East Carolina University, 2022-12-15)The horn is a musical instrument that has evolved in complexity, style, and performance practice. Major horn repertoire consists of music by German composers, allowing the horn to change and grow with composers from its ... -
A germline-specific isoform of eIF4E (IFE-1) is required for efficient translation of stored mRNAs and maturation of both oocytes and sperm
(East Carolina University, 2009-05-15)Fertility and embryonic viability are measures of efficient germ cell growth and development. During oogenesis and spermatogenesis, new proteins are required for both mitotic expansion and differentiation. Qualitative and ... -
Gestational Diabetes Is Characterized by Reduced Mitochondrial Protein Expression and Altered Calcium Signaling Proteins in Skeletal Muscle
(2014)The rising prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects up to 18% of pregnant women with immediate and long-term metabolic consequences for both mother and infant. Abnormal glucose uptake and lipid oxidation ...
