Soil discharged from construction sites to nearby waterbodies have a negative impact on water quality and the aquatic ecosystem. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a stormwater pollution prevention plan (SWPPP) in ...

Geographic Variation in the Yellow-throated Warbler (Dendroica dominica) 

McKay, Bailey (2007-12-15)
I examined how variation within the yellow-throated warbler (Dendroica dominica) relates to geography. The yellow-throated warbler is a common neotropical migrant with a breeding range confined to the southeastern United ...

Geographic Variation in Trace Element Profiles of Shrimp and Viability of Elemental Profiling as a Traceability Tool 

Davis, Robert (2021-07-07)
The increased concern about the environmental consequences of shrimp culture in importing markets has led to a greater emphasis on sustainability of the products. Traceability is an important component of making claims ...

Geographical Access, Implementation Experience, and Patient Perception of Genetic Testing in the United States 

Fahim, Shahariar Mohammed (2022-06-29)  ETD File Embargoed
Backgrounds: Genetic testing is thriving, and its impact on human lives is enormous. However, the slow uptake of genetic testing into routine clinical practice indicates that much remains to be explored with regards to ...
