The Impact of Cold Fronts on the Age of Suspended Sediment in Galveston Bay
(2021-04-21)
Cold fronts are considered to be a significant cause of sediment resuspension and transport in estuarine systems. Cumulatively, cold fronts have a greater total impact on sediment resuspension and transport than less ...
Cavity Quantum Electrodynamics with Landau Quantized Graphene
(2021-04-28)
We attempt to see if strong coupling between a quantum electromagnetic field and Landau quantized (LQ) graphene is achievable. LQ graphene acts as a collection of two-level quantum bits (qubits). This coupling between field ...
The Impact of ShotSpotter on Violent Crime
(2021-05-03)
This study will seek to examine the relationship between ShotSpotter technology and the rate of violent crimes within cities across the United States. In recent years, the ShotSpotter technology has become more prevalent ...
Effects of Heterogeneity in Lithology and Mechanical Properties on the Slip Behaviors of the Plate Boundary Fault at the Hikurangi Margin, New Zealand
(2020-04-21)
Subduction zones are known to produce large, damaging earthquakes, but they can also experience slow-slip events which cannot be felt by humans. Understanding the mechanisms which influence this variation in slip rate will ...
Colonization of Hard-substrate Invertebrate Communities on Various Materials in Galveston Bay, Texas
(2021-04-22)
Hard-substrate organisms such as oysters and barnacles reduce coastal erosion, improve water quality, and promote biodiversity. However, hard-substrate communities are threatened by dredging, sedimentation, invasive species, ...
Holding Oneself Accountable: Reactive Attitudes Borne Towards the Self
(2021-04-15)
In developing my moral compass, I became increasingly aware of people explaining morality as it pertains to others, but not as it pertains to themselves. Indeed, moral philosophy tends to approach morality as an interpersonal ...
Nautical Archaeology Digital Library
(2021-05-04)
A problem that exists in the Nautical Archaeology Digital Library at the Texas A&M University is that there is no easy way to organize a database of images incorporating good filtering, tagging, and large cropping capabilities. ...
Amendment Fever: The Surge of Moral Amendments in Late Nineteenth Century America
(2021-05-04)
This work examines the causes behind the surge of moral amendment proposals to the federal Constitution in the late nineteenth century. These amendments began to take shape in 1860 when Congressmen attempted to pass a ...
Deep Learning for Plant Disease Classification
(2020-04-20)
Deep learning using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) has become increasingly successful in plant disease diagnosis, and consequently offers new promise in the ongoing battle against crop disease. While many studies ...
Changing Attitude Toward Reparations
(2021-05-07)
Perspective-taking is when an individual takes the point of view of a different, marginalized, or negatively viewed group in order to facilitate an understanding towards their situation and improve the marginalized group’s ...
