Seismic stratigraphy and quaternary evolution of the New York Bight Inner Continental Shelf
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Approximately 5,300 km of digitally recorded high-resolution, nested, single-channel, seismic-refection data (2.46 m³ watergun, 200-500 Hz Geopulse acoustic source, and a CHIRP 2-7 kHz subbottom profiler) and coincident ...
Economic assessment of forage responses to mesquite control in the Rolling Plains of North Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Encroachment of mesquite brush in the last 100 years has caused a major problem with rangeland in Texas. Many different methods to control brush problem encroachment have been used in the last 50 years, but no conclusions ...
Chromidio: an interface for color tracking with key frames in Max and Nato
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
A software interface named Chromidio is developed in this thesis that enables the user to easily extract numerical color and motion data from a prerecorded QuickTime movie on disk. Chromidio outputs this data in a format ...
Capriccio after Davison: translating two-dimensional still imagery into an artistic, dynamic three-dimensional space
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Two-dimensional fine art can serve as a source of inspiration for new works in the relatively young medium of three-dimensional computer animation. Artists are just beginning to discover the potential that digital technology ...
Characterization of solid-fluid mixtures
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
In this work we develop and investigate a mathematical model for the description of the mechanical behavior of soft, hydrated tissues with significant perfusion. We set up and derive the mathematical description and balance ...
The painting camera: an abstract rendering system with camera-control images
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The computer is a powerful creative tool, capable of creating unprecedented work and has revolutionized the way art is conceived, created, and perceived. However, using the computer as an artistic tool requires new techniques ...
Saltcedar management strategies and effects on water quality and quantity of the Pecos River
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Aerial herbicide treatments initiated in August 1999 on the Pecos River near Orla, Texas, were evaluated for saltcedar density, vegetation cover and soil salinity pre-treatment and one and two years post-treatment. Saltcedar ...
Specific monoclonal antibodies against embryonic chicken adipose tissue cell membranes and their application against developing adipocytes
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
Use of anti-adipocyte monoclonal antibodies (MAb) for reduction of fat mass in chickens was investigated in two experiments. Reduction of adipose tissue mass was obtained only in Experiment II. In Experiment I, 132 fertilized ...
Induction of chloride secretory currents across mouse ileal tissues by rotavirus enterotoxic peptide in different age mice
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
New technological advances in Ussing chamber design have resulted in the development of a micro-Ussing chamber that can hold tissues acquired by forceps biopsy. This new Ussing chamber system, that can hold such small ...
Design and development of an ultrafine particle reflection-time-of-flight mass spectrometer
(Texas A&M University, 2002)
The primary motivation for the research is to study the effect of small particles on global climate. The study can also help to understand the dynamics involved with gas to particle conversion, which is being debated to ...
