Fish Assemblage Structure and Habitat Associations in Blackwater Streams and Wetlands of Alabama’s Southern Pine Plains and Hills
(2026-07-28)
Fish community structure in headwater streams and wetlands of the Southern
Pine Plains and Hills (SPPH) was primarily determined by landscape-scale differences
in water chemistry, aligning with broad divisions in geology. ...
Fish Kill Loss Valuation through Estimation of Angling Effort and Use Valuation on Three Mid-Size Alabama Rivers
(2022-07-25)
State fisheries management agencies seek financial restitution following a fish kill. Economic losses due to fish kills on rivers have been underestimated in Alabama, as user loss values have not been included as a loss ...
Fish Meal Replacement in Practical Diets for Pacific White Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) Reared in Green Water Systems
(2006-08-15)
A series of experimental studies were conducted with Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, to evaluate the use of plant protein sources as replacement ingredients for fish meal in commercially manufactured diets for ...
Fisher-KPP Equations And Chemotaxis Models on Metric Graphs
(2025-07-29)
This dissertation is devoted to the study of population dynamics on network-like structures both in the absence and presence of chemical signals that guide population movement. Mathematically, population movement in response ...
Fitness strategies of fastidious prokaryotes
(2021-12-01)
Fastidious prokaryotes are slow-growing bacteria that either require specific media to grow or are not able to grow axenically. ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ (CLas) and Xylella fastidiosa are important fastidious ...
The Five Modes of Caring Student Index
(2016-12-09)
The purpose of the study was to examine the five modes of caring for students. Using Gary Chapman’s (1992) five love languages and additional work by Noddings (1984) and Gilligan (1982), the researcher designed a study ...
Fix, Flee, or Fan the Flames? An Attributional Investigation of Relational Responses to Coworker Incivility
(2020-04-30)
Workplace incivility, which is low-intensity interpersonal mistreatment with ambiguous intent, is increasingly prevalent in today’s organizations. The ambiguous intent that characterizes incivility suggests attributions ...
Fixed Points and Periodic Points of Orientation Reversing Planar Homeomorphisms
(2010-07-20)
Topological dynamics on surfaces is studied. The primary objects of study are orientation reversing homeomorphisms of the plane, but most of the results apply also to the orientation reversing homeomorphisms of the 2-sphere. ...
Flannery O'Connor and Mid-Century America
(2014-12-12)
Though the fiction of Flannery O'Connor has most often been studied from theological or psychological perspectives, her work is deeply entrenched in, and reflective of, the culture of the mid-twentieth-century United States. ...
A Flexible Model for Multi-agent Based Simulation of Software Development Process
(2007-12-15)
Inadequate use of project management techniques in software development can be traced to the lack of efficient education strategies for managers. Software development processes are complex and therefore it is hard to predict ...
Flexible Nonvolatile Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM Fabricated Using Ink-Jet Printing Technology
(2014-05-01)
The design and fabrication of flexible Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM devices is presented in this work. We have investigated Cu/CuxO/Ag capacitor-like structure which exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior under low-range direct ...
Flexible Superconducting Microwave Interconnects and Connectors
(2018-04-29)
One of the major limitations to constructing densely-integrated cryogenic electronic systems is the electrical interconnect technology. Superconducting cables with multiple signals, high signal density, low loss, low thermal ...
Flexible, Ultra-Thin, Embedded Die Packaging
(2010-10-26)
As thin, flexible electronics solutions become more robust, their integration into everyday life becomes more likely. With possible applications in wearable electronics, biomedical sensors, or ‘peel and stick’ sensors, the ...
Flexural Response of Syntactic Foam Core Sandwich Structures: Effects of Graded Face Sheets and Interpenetrating Phase Composite Foam Core
(2011-05-09)
In this thesis, flexural responses of sandwich structures with different syntactic foam core architectures are studied. The syntactic foam core is made by dispersing hollow glass microballoons in epoxy matrix at different ...
Flip Chip and Heat Spreader Attachment Development
(2009-04-09)
Flip chip packages offer many advantages over traditional wire bonding based packages. Flip chip packages have high input/output (I/O) handling capability, better electrical performance and smaller size. Proper package ...
Flood Control in Toulmins Spring Branch Watershed through LID Practices
(2016-08-03)
Urbanization is known to cause increases in volume of stormwater runoff and peak flow rates, which leads to changes in natural flow regime and increases the likelihood of flooding. Conventional stormwater management practices ...
Flood Debris Build-Up Loading and Assessment of Adequacy of ALDOT Bridge Pile Bents During Extreme Flood/Scour Events
(2005-08-15)
A description of a flood debris build-up loading and an assessment of the adequacy of a chosen group of typical ALDOT bridge pile bents having various loading conditions and under various amounts of scour are presented in ...
Flood Risk Assessment for the Vulnerable Populations and Infrastructure: Village Creek, Birmingham, Alabama
(2017-05-15)
