TRILOBITE BIOFACIES, SYSTEMATICS AND FAUNAL TURNOVER IN A SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHIC FRAMEWORK DURING THE UPPER ORDOVICIAN OF OKLAHOMA AND VIRGINIA
(2012)In the Appalachian foreland basin of the eastern United States, major sedimentologic and geochemical changes occured during the Upper Ordovician (Sandbian-Katian). The modification of ocean circulation patterns, introduction ... -
TRILOBITE FAUNAS, SEDIMENTARY FACIES AND SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY OF THE UPPER ORDOVICIAN (SANDBIAN-KATIAN) SUCCESSION OF MISSOURI
(2015-05)The late Sandbian-Katian interval (Upper Ordovician) was a time of major environmental change across Laurentia with highest recorded sea levels of the Paleozoic. While sequence stratigraphy, environmental change and faunal ... -
TriM: Tri-modal data communication in mobile ad-hoc network database systems.
(2003)The Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is an emerging area of research in the network and database communities. A MANET is a group of self-organizing, autonomous clients and servers that form temporary networks. A MANET allows ... -
TRINOMIAL-TREE DISTRIBUTION OF A NONLINEAR POSITIVE STOCHASTIC INTEREST RATE MODEL WITH CONNECTIONS TO THE POTENTIAL APPROACH AND ITS APPLICATION TO COMPUTING CORPORATE DEFAULT RISK
(2013)In this dissertation, I consider a new nonlinear stochastic interest rate model that is adapted from a stochastic population growth model and exhibits the desirable properties of positivity of interest rates and mean ... -
TROPHIC CONNECTIONS BETWEEN STREAM AND TERRESTRIAL FOOD WEBS
(2010)Most animals have complex life histories (CLH) in which an individual's niche shifts through ontogeny. These organisms often cross habitat or ecosystem boundaries as they develop from larvae to adults, coupling energy ... -
Trophic spatial ecology of invertivorous stream fishes.
(2007)In Chapter 1, I studied the relationship between Bigeye Shiner populations and variables of habitat patches within the stream, and the land adjacent to the stream (the riparian zone). This work was done in Brier Creek, a ... -
Tropical climate stability, Hadley circulation, and deep cumulus convection: Vital synergism on a wet planet.
(2000)Important features of the proposed formulation for precipitating deep turbulent clouds include the ability to calculate precipitation efficiencies, a new postulation relating cumulus buoyancy to solar radiation, and the ... -
Tropospheric Polar Vortices and Impacts on Atmospheric Flow from the Arctic to the Mid-Latitudes using a New Global Modeling System
(2020-05-08)The observed rapid changes in the Arctic are important to quantify not only for understanding the region, but also for understanding how processes between the Arctic and lower latitudes can interact to culminate in high-impact ... -
The Truman Administration and China, 1945-1950 :
(1980)Over the past several years the release of many new government documents made it necessary to take another look at the question. The initial intent in undertaking a survey of these documents was to determine more precisely ... -
The Trumpet Design and Production Techniques of Clifford Blackburn
(2018-05)Through interviews with Clifford Blackburn and his small staff, this document will discuss not only the design and production techniques of Blackburn Trumpets, but also biographical information about the man himself and ... -
Trust in virtual teams: The role of task, technology and time.
(2004)Virtual teams face major impediments to developing trust given their relative inability to evaluate other members' abilities, motivations and work patterns. However, trust is the foundation on which virtual teams can build ... -
Trust, Transformational Leadership, and Collective Teacher Efficacy in an Urban School Setting
(2016-12-17)The purpose of this study is to show how together trust along with transformational leadership moderates the effect of economic disadvantage on instructional capacity, defined by collective teacher efficacy, in urban ... -
Trust: On Acts and Attitudes of Trust
(2016-08)Trust comes in many forms. Trust is, at the very least, both an act and a set of attitudes. In this dissertation, I motivate the distinction between acts and attitudes of trust and offer partial accounts of each. Acts of ... -
Trusting with Skill: Testimony, Reliability and Epistemic Justification
(2013)The majority of what you believe is based on the testimony of others; what your parents and teachers have taught you, what you read online or see on the news, etc. And most of the time you accept what these sources tell ... -
Truth and certainty in history :
(The University of Oklahoma., 1977) -
Tuning the frontier orbital character of iron-thiolate complexes.
(2000)Another part of this work describes the solvatochromatic effect of CpFe(CO) 2(SC6H5) dissolved in different solvents. A blue shift in the UV-vis spectra occurs as CpFe(CO)2(SC6H 5) is solvated in more polar solvents, which ... -
