The modification and application of Kuo's parameterization of cumulus convection in middle latitudes /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1975) -
MODIFICATION OF THE SMALL INTESTINAL SUBMUCOSA USING PLGA NANOPARTICLES FOR ENHANCED TISSUE REGENERATION: FROM IN VITRO TO IN VIVO MODELS
(2009)Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) derived from porcine small intestine has been intensively studied for its capacity in repairing and regenerating wounded and dysfunctional tissues. However, SIS suffers from a large spectrum ... -
Modifying social studies curriculum in the classroom: Case study regarding inclusive practices for engaging young adolescents in learning in the face of external constraints.
(2003)In studying this group of six teachers, four themes emerge to describe classroom practices to engage all students in learning. Teachers negotiate learning space to include diverse perspectives and cultural pluralism; ... -
Modular Optical Wireless Elements
(2016-12-16)Optical wireless has gained attention in recent years as an e cient and secure way to provide broadband connectivity to mobile platforms, isolated communities, and crowded public events. Companies like NASA, Google, Facebook, ... -
Modulation Domain Image Processing
(2012)The classical Fourier transform is the cornerstone of traditional linear -
Moisture and diabatic initialization based on radar and satellite observations.
(1999)The "spinup" problem is one of the most serious problems for short-range precipitation forecasting. It is known to be related to the deficiencies in the initial moisture, latent heating and divergent circulations. The ... -
Moisture and Thermal Characteristics of Southern Plains Ice Storms: Insights from a regional climatology and high-resolution WRF-ARW sensitivity study
(2014-08-15)Winter storms, including snowstorms and ice storms, are infrequent in the Southern Great Plains of the United States (SGP), but can produce significant hazard and socioeconomic disruption. During 2000-2010, several severe ... -
MOISTURE SOURCES FOR FLASH FLOODS IN THE UNITED STATES
(2017-12)This dissertation uses backward trajectories derived from North American Regional Reanalysis data for 19,253 flash flood reports published by the National Weather Service to assess the nonlocal contribution of the land ... -
MOISTURE SURGES OVER THE GULF OF CALIFORNIA AND RELATIONSHIPS WITH CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY
(2008)The North American Monsoon (NAM) is characterized by widespread convective activity and rainfall that is tied to key synoptic and sub-synoptic atmospheric circulation features during summer - from mid-June to September. ... -
Moisture-Induced Damage Characterization of Asphalt Mixes: A Chemical, Thermodynamic and Mechanistic Approach
(2021-05)Moisture-induced damage is one of the major distresses which leads to the deterioration of mechanical properties of asphalt mixes and failure of asphalt pavements. Evaluation of the moisture-induced damage potential is a ... -
Molecular basis of ecdysteroid mediated limb regeneration in the fiddler crab, Uca pugilator
(2014-05)Regeneration is a biological phenomenon that provides an organism the ability to recapitulate part of embryonic development as an adult. The capacity to regenerate is not limited to any particular group of animals; however, ... -
Molecular beam epitaxial growth and characterization of europium-doped calcium fluoride and fabrication of visible electroluminescent devices on silicon.
(1998)An indirect band-gap precludes the possibility of efficient luminescence from Si. The widespread use of Si in electronics and rapid advances in Si device processing and design justifies the search for Si-based light emitters ... -
Molecular beam epitaxial growth of interband cascade structures with advances in InAs- and GaSb-based interband cascade lasers
(2023-04-21)Interband cascade lasers (ICLs) based on the type-II quantum well (QW) active region have attracted much interest over the years, in large part due to their low power consumption. Their operation hinges on two key features; ... -
Molecular beam epitaxy and characterization of indium antimonide/aluminum indium antimonide heterostructures.
(1998)Two-dimensional electron systems were realized in InSb quantum wells with Al0.09In0.91Sb barrier layers delta-doped with Si. Measured electron mobilities in multiple quantum well structures grown on GaAs(001) substrates ... -
MOLECULAR BEAM EPITAXY OF ANTIMONY QUANTUM WELLS FOR PROBING TOPOLOGICAL SURFACE STATES
(2017)A topoelectronic transition was predicted for an Sb quantum well (QW) as a function of QW thickness. Bulk Sb is a semimetal with a negative bandgap, with neither the conduction band minimum nor the valence band maximum at ... -
Molecular Beam Epitaxy of InAs, GaSb, AlSb Structures for Interband Cascade Devices
(2016-08)The interband cascade (IC) family of devices has been extended beyond mid-infrared lasers to include photovoltaic (PV) and photodetector (PD) devices. These devices utilize the transition between conduction and valence ... -
Molecular Beam Epitaxy of Narrow Gap Quantum Wells: InSb, InGaAs and Elemental Sb
(2013)In this work the electronic properties of n-type and p-type quantum wells (QWs) made of narrow gap InSb and InGaAs materials have been studied experimentally. The narrower band gap in these materials leads to smaller ... -
MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION OF THE ARABIDOPSIS NUCLEAR FACTOR-Y TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR FAMILY
(2014-05-09)NUCLEAR FACTOR-Y (NF-Y) transcription factors, composed of three independent families: NF-YA, NF-YB, and NF-YC, have greatly expanded in plants in comparison to animals. For example, while humans have only one member of ... -
