Spectral induced polarization (SIP) response of biodegraded oil in porous media
(Oxford University Press, 2014)Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of different oil saturation (0.2–0.8), wetting conditions (water-wet and oil-wet), and the addition of asphaltene on the spectral induced polarization (SIP) ... -
Speed Eleusis: variation on an old educational card game
(American Association of Physics Teachers (AAPT), 2020-03)In this article, we describe a fun and engaging card game called Speed Eleusis that teaches the process of scientific discovery and publication, including such practices as replication and retraction. Much like the traditional ... -
Spiritual connectedness through prayer as a mediator of the relationship between Indigenous language use and positive mental health
(American Psychological Association (APA), 2021-01-01)Objective: The objective of this study is to understand how Indigenous language and spirituality revitalization efforts may affect mental health within Indigenous communities. Although Indigenous communities experience ... -
Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum in six species of laboratory-reared Anopheles mosquitoes
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1994)Sporogonic development of cultured Plasmodium falciparum was compared in six species of Anopheles mosquitoes. A reference species, A. gambiae, was selected as the standard for comparison. Estimates of absolute densities ... -
Sporozoite transmission by Anopheles freeborni and Anopheles gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum
(The American Mosquito Control Association, 1992)A micro-membrane feeding technique was used to evaluate sporozoite transmission for Anopheles freeborni and An. gambiae experimentally infected with Plasmodium falciparum. From cohorts of infected mosquitoes with equivalent ... -
Spring temperatures influence selection on breeding date and the potential for phenological mismatch in a migratory bird
(Ecological Society of America, 2016-09-15)Climate change has affected the seasonal phenology of a variety of taxa, including that of migratory birds and their critical food resources. However, whether climate-induced changes in breeding phenology affect individual ... -
Statistics anxiety and statistics self-efficacy in doctoral online statistics: A mixed methods study
(2020-08)Using concurrent mixed methodology, this study explored how doctoral students experience high statistics anxiety and low statistics self-efficacy as they worked through an accelerated, online introductory statistics course. ... -
Steering clear of the rocks: A look at the current state of oral history ethics in the digital age
(Oxford University Press, 2013-03-07)In recent conversations about ethics in oral history, most of the topics tend to fall into two main categories-legislated or voluntary. Interactions with Institutional Review Boards and the nature and content of consent ... -
Step-based physical activity metrics and cardiometabolic risk: NHANES 2005-2006
(Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2017-02)Purpose: This study aimed to catalog the relationships between step-based accelerometer metrics indicative of physical activity volume (steps per day, adjusted to a pedometer scale), intensity (mean steps per minute from ... -
Stress exposure and physical, mental, and behavioral health among American Indian adults with type 2 diabetes
(MDPI, 2017-09-16)American Indian (AI) communities experience disproportionate exposure to stressors and health inequities including type 2 diabetes. Yet, we know little about the role of psychosocial stressors for AI diabetes-related health ... -
Strong influence of packing density in terahertz metamaterials
(AIP Publishing, 2010-12-16)We investigate the response of a terahertz metamaterial depending on the unit cell density. The fundamental inductive capacitive (LC) resonance has its highest quality (Q) factor for a critical period Pc=lambda/n, with ... -
Structural changes in the progression of atrial fibrillation: Potential role of glycogen and fibrosis as perpetuating factors
(e-Century Publishing, 2015-02-15)Background: Previous studies of the goat heart subjected to prolonged atrial pacing induced sustained atrial fibrillation (AF). Structural changes included marked accumulation of glycogen in atrial myocytes. Aims: In the ... -
Structural system selection for a building design based on energy impact
(American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) Conferences, 2021-07-26)A building structure�s ecological impact due to the embodied carbon in the building materials chosen has become an increasingly prominent factor in the selection of building structural systems. Understanding the relative ... -
Structure of a prophenoloxidase (PPO) from Anopheles gambiae provides new insights into the mechanism of PPO activation
(BioMed Central, 2016-01-05)Background: Phenoloxidase (PO)-catalyzed melanization is a universal defense mechanism of insects against pathogenic and parasitic infections. In mosquitos such as Anopheles gambiae, melanotic encapsulation is a resistance ... -
Structure of the unique SEFIR domain from human interleukin 17 receptor A reveals a composite ligand-binding site containing a conserved a-helix for Act1 binding and IL-17 signaling
(International Union of Crystallography, 2014)Interleukin 17 (IL-17) cytokines play a crucial role in mediating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. A unique intracellular signaling domain termed SEFIR is found within all IL-17 receptors (IL-17Rs) as well as the key ... -
