Geographic information analysis of uranium in groundwater near the Lake Ontario Ordnance Works (LOOW) and Niagara Falls storage site in Niagara County, New York
(2010)
In this thesis standard geostatistical methods are applied to the study of groundwater contamination by uranium in the Lake Ontario Ordnance Works (LOOW) site in northwest Niagara County, New York. Geospatial statistical ...
Geologic map of MTM quadrangles -15257 and -20257 of western Hesperia Planum, Mars
(2007)
The volcanic edifice of Tyrrhena Patera (approximately -22°N, 252°W), Mars, stands 1800 m above the surrounding plains of Hesperia Planum, approximately 2000 km northeast of the center of the Hellas impact basin. Shallow ...
Impregnated membranes for water purification using forward osmosis
(2015)
Forward osmosis (FO) provides an energy efficient route for seawater desalination and wastewater treatment, because water transport is driven by the osmotic pressure difference across the membrane and there is no need of ...
Identifying colloid-stabilizing forces in aqueous and non-aqueous media using atomic force microscopy and extended DLVO theory
(2009)
The interfacial forces that dictate colloid stability in aqueous and non-aqueous systems are a function of the polar and apolar properties of the medium. This study quantifies these colloidal forces and energies between a ...
American graffiti: Spatial analysis of petty crime in New York City
(2012)
Graffiti, although heralded as an emerging art form by some, is a significant nuisance to urban residents throughout the world. Graffiti can devalue property, drive away retail business, and cause city residents to feel ...
A physics-based emulator for the simulation of geophysical mass flows
(2012)
Rare natural hazards such as large volcanic eruptions can cause loss of life and damage to property. With sufficient information, those charged with public safety may issue warnings of impending hazards, to mitigate the ...
Association between physical food environment and weight status of NYS public school students
(2017)
The prevalence of obesity has become a great public health concern in the United States. Food environment is one contextual driver that has been widely discussed. According to previous research, disparities in childhood ...

New models for geophysical mass flows
(2006)
Granular flow is a common concept in studying geophysical mass flows. Volcanic avalanches, mud flows, landslides or debris flows can be considered to be granular flows or granular-fluid mixture flows. The range of scales ...
Model-Data Fusion and Adaptive Sensing for Large Scale Systems: Applications to Atmospheric Release Incidents
(2014)
All across the world, toxic material clouds are emitted from sources, such as industrial plants, vehicular traffic, and volcanic eruptions can contain chemical, biological or radiological material. With the growing fear ...
