MICROMORPHOLOGY IN ARCHAEOLOGY: AN ANALYSIS OF EOLIAN AND ALLUVIAL SITE FORMATION PROCESSES IN THE MIDDLE RÍO NEGRO VALLEY, NORTHERN PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-19)
Based on the results of a previous geoarchaeological study that reconstructed the landscape history of the Middle Río Negro Valley in Northern Patagonia, Argentina, this thesis analyzes previously collected sediments to ...
IMPROVING THE SPEED AND ACCURACY OF THE P300 AUTOMATIC SPELLING SYSTEM THROUGH FACIAL RECOGNITION
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-21)
Locked-in syndrome is a condition where an individual does not have control of their muscles, including facial muscles and vocal cords which control speech. Instead of oral speech, sign language, or writing, other methods ...
Investigation of Platinum-Catalyzed Acylation of 2-Aryloxypyridines via C-H Activation and Functionalization
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-12)
Transition metal catalyzed C-H activation and functionalization reactions allow synthetic chemists to break the normally unreactive carbon-hydrogen bond and create a new and useful carbon-oxygen, carbon-nitrogen, carbon-halogen, ...
Investigation of NADPH-Dependent Thioredoxin Reductase-C (NTRC) In Chloroplast Lipid Metabolism
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-01)
Redox reactions are ubiquitous within plant metabolism and critical for the sustainment of photosynthesis within thylakoid membranes. Specialized glycerolipids that make up these membranes in turn require redox reactions ...
Borrowing ecological principles: Influence of reef placement and habitat complexity on free-living and parasite diversity
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-25)
Environmental factors often shape and regulate the distribution of community assemblages throughout an ecosystem. For example, in the rocky intertidal zones, marine ecologists have identified abiotic forces and biotic ...
Novel roles for ecdysone receptor in the Drosophila germline
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-01)
Oogenesis, the process by which a viable egg is produced, demands carefully coordinated communication between somatic and germ cell populations, relying on both local and systemic factors such as steroid hormones for ...
