Long-Term Hydrological Reconstruction From a Beaver Meadow
(2017-04-24)
Beaver ponds contribute 0.8-1.0 million tons of atmospheric methane (CH4) emissions per year globally (Whitfield et al., 2014; Wik et al., 2016) and are found to be the largest CH4 emitters among all the wetland types in ...
Cellulose Nanocrystal-Bonded Carbon Nanotubes/Polymer Filaments: Creating Ultra-Strong 3D Printed Parts With Multifunctionality
(2019-05-20)
The manufacturing of polymer filaments with carbon nanotubes and cellulose nanocrystals is used to create 3D printed parts with improved delamination strength along with added thermal and electrical conductivity. The ...
What Environmental Conditions do Testate Amoebas Prefer in the Peruvian Peatlands?
(2018-04-24)
Testate amoebae are a group of protozoa that live in aquatic environments such as peatlands, estuaries, and lakes, and their shells are often well-preserved in the sediments of these environments. These organisms are useful ...
Understanding the Nature of Texas A&M University Teacher Preparation for Diverse Classrooms
(2019-04-23)
As students who felt impacted by multicultural education teacher education courses, we wanted to better understand contributions to teacher quality at Texas A&M University in relation to diverse pK-12 students. Nationally, ...
Trilineage Differentiation and Immunophenotyping of MSCs Isolated in Platelet Lysate as an FBS Alternative
(2017-05-03)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are commonly used in regenerative medicine. Fetal bovine serum (FBS) is used to aid in the expansion of MSCs since it contains growth factors, but it also contains xenogens that are known to ...
Molecular Investigation of the Distribution of Typhlatya spp. in Cave Systems Within the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico
(2018-04-26)
Stygobitic species such as the anchialine cave shrimp Typhlatya have adapted to life in freshwater and marine cave systems around the world. Limited research has been conducted on the ecological, morphological and genetic ...
Implementing VR/AR Systems for Insight Into Water Desalination Plant
(2019-05-22)
This paper/research is to identify the effectiveness of using Mixed Reality (MR) tool as a teaching method for students. The goal of this project is to show that MR can be incorporated as a significant form of learning for ...
GEOLOGIC ASSESSMENT OF DRILLING, COMPLETION, AND STIMULATION METHODS IN SELECTED GAS SHALE PLAYS WORLDWIDE
(2014-04-11)
The United States regularly imports majority of the transportation oil, and several TCF of natural gas annually. Nevertheless, there is very large resource of natural gas in unconventional reservoirs, with over 2,200 TCF ...
NUMERICAL MODELING FOR THE FORMATION MECHANISM OF 3D TOPOGRAPHY ON MICROBIAL MAT SURFACES
(2013-09-27)
Microbial mats are layered, surface-attached communities of microorganism that live under stagnant or moving bodies of water. Active precipitations of minerals often occur around these spatially arranged communities, forming ...
Resistivity changes in carbon-implanted Teflon
(Texas A&M University, 2013-02-22)
The change in resistance of Teflon due to the implantation of carbon atoms was measured. The procedure involved implanting carbon at energies of 40 kV, 50 kV, and 140 kV using beam currents ranging from 0.5 [mu]A to 3 ...
