Sexual selection is a driver of biodiversity and creates spectacular forms of variation. However, only recently have we begun to understand how this variation operates on the postcopulatory level and how cryptic mechanisms affect male-male...

This thesis presents data from ground camera observations of the aurora conducted from Alaska during the winters of 2005 through 2007. In conjunction with these camera observations, conjugate radar observations of the auroral ionosphere were...
This thesis reports work on a new device to detect changes in spatially nonuniform intensity distributions, and shows how this device can be applied to the particular problem of optical vibration detection. The phase of optical radiation is very...

A basic understanding of how atmospherically-derived elements behave in soils is of concern in contaminant transport, nutrient cycling, and carbon sequestration studies. Here, I use stable and radioactive tracers to evaluate the fate of...
Eating disorders are a persistent problem for women on college campuses across the country, and peer education programs are one method that colleges have employed to address these concerns. A previous study found that peer education is actually...

Extra cellular matrix (ECM) provides structural support for the body and also contributes to cell proliferation and migration. Modification ECM is an important part of normal physiology, and integral to a variety of pathologies including tumor...
In the past decade, there have been efforts to understand the brain basis of humor processing with noninvasive imaging. Starting with Goel and Dolan (2001), several empirical reports have been published examining at the neuroimaging of humor. These...
