LAKE PHELPS DUGOUT LOG CANOES: CONSERVATION, RETREATMENT, AND PUBLIC DISPLAY
(East Carolina University, 2016-03-17)During the latter part of the 1980s, nearly thirty prehistoric dugout log canoes were discovered at Lake Phelps, in eastern North Carolina. Of those reported, four of these canoes were retrieved and conserved with a sugar ... -
Large-Eddy Simulation of Reynolds Stress Budgets in and Above Forests in Neutral Atmospheric Boundary Layers
(2023-03-13)Large-eddy simulations (LESs) of inversion-capped neutral atmospheric boundary layers (ABLs) are augmented to earlier small-domain LESs of a sparse forest and field observation to evaluate the budgets of all non-negligible ... -
Large-scale genome modifications in Arabidopsis thaliana using TALEN and CRISPR/Cas9
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-03)Due to the world becoming over populated, it is becoming increasingly difficult to supply food for everyone. The only believed solution to this issue is to find ways to make plants more productive so that less land will ... -
The largest subunit of RNA polymerase II from the Glaucocystophyta: functional constraint and short-branch exclusion in deep eukaryotic phylogeny
(East Carolina University, 2005-12)Background: Evolutionary analyses of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB1) have yielded important and at times provocative results. One particularly troublesome outcome is the consistent inference of independent ... -
Laser tweezers and Raman spectroscopy systems and methods for the study of microscopic particles
(2005-05-24)Methods and systems for studying microscopic particles are provided. An optical trap for a selected microscopic particle can be formed with a laser beam at a first power level. The laser beam can have a variable power level ... -
Last Wills
(East Carolina University, 2013)This short story collection, LAST WILLS, portrays four individuals' transitions into late adulthood. "Dan's Man Otto": an aging, socially estranged man attempts to cope with later-life struggles due to another man's fatal ... -
Late Holocene evolution of Currituck Sound, North Carolina, USA : environmental change driven by sea-level rise, storms and barrier island morphology
(East Carolina University, 2012)Coastal evolution is an increasingly important area of study, especially with the projected rise in sea level, increase in storm intensity, and population increases along the nation's coasts. In order to predict how the ... -
LATENCY OF FIRST OFFICE DISCIPLINE REFERRALS AMONG YOUTH RECEIVING INDIVIDUAL THERAPY IN SCHOOLS
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-23)Youth who experience mental illness can exhibit disruptive behavior in the school setting which is frequently not recognized as a result of internal struggle. For the estimated 20% of school-aged youth who experience mental ... -
Lateral Gene Transfer between Bacteria and Trichoderma reesei
(East Carolina University, 2012)Lateral gene transfer (LGT) has played an important role in shaping the `tree of life'. It has promoted evolution by generating gene redundancies, which allow for more freedom in terms of allowed mutations in a genome, ... -
Lateral Stream Migration Rates in the Blue River Watershed, Wisconsin
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-20)Lateral channel migration is a naturally occurring process within meandering rivers when adjusting to a relatively stable state. Factors like stream power, soil, and streambank vegetation can influence the rate of migration ...
