Gulf Stream Sea Surface Temperature Shift

Sea surface temperatures (SST) of the Gulf Stream change enormously on year to year basis. In this study, however, I investigated the trends and temperature shifts over a 20-year period determining if a clear shift is evident in this particular current. I found no significant trends, but I did find several interesting results. I used ArcGIS to gather and analyze data from NOAA\u27s satellite (AVHRR) and developed an Ordinarily Least Squares regression model comparing a monthly average over 20 years to determine if the temperature shifts over time were not random. I was able to isolate slopes with significant P-values (P \u3c .05) and determine a trend of those significant values

Physicochemical characterization of the PEG8000-Na2SO4 aqueous two-phase system

The polyethylene glycol-sodium sulfate aqueous two-phase system has been characterized at 23 °C. Tielines for the phase diagram were obtained experimentally. Phases in equilibrium were characterized by means of the solvatochromic parameters π*, α, and β, which provide a measurement of the polarity/polarizability and the H-bond donor and acceptor abilities, respectively. The ability of the phases to participate in hydrophobic interactions was characterized by means of the free energy of transfer of a methylene group between the conjugated phases, using the partition of a homologous series of dinitrophenylated amino acids. The results show the effect of the presence of polymer and salt in the aqueous phase, and a comparison of both phases with pure water is made.LSRE-PortoUniversidade Católica PortuguesaEscola Superior de Biotecnologia do PortoFundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT

Atlas of Maine: Atlantic Salmon Habitat and Conserved Land

This map shows where Maine\u27s Atlantic Salmon habitat intersects with the conservation land throughout the state. It serves as a tool to show how much of the habitat goes unprotected, in turn, aiding the allocation of resources

Community art and neighborhood development in Hudson, New York

Thesis (M.C.P.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Urban Studies and Planning, 2000.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 91-96).Facing disinvestment and unemployment, many places look to culture-based strategies for revitalization. Traditional models of culture-based community revitalization, however, have been criticized for contributing to gentrification, social polarization, and cultural discrimination. Communities seeking to avoid the contradictions of market oriented culture-based revitalization strategies can look to the efforts of community based organizations for models of how culture and the arts can contribute to revitalization without being limited to defining the benefits of their efforts solely in economic terms. In this thesis, I describe the efforts of one arts organization, Time & Space Limited (TSL), as an example of this process. Through an in-depth case study, I describe the role of TSL, a community-based arts organization, in creating an alternative strategy for community revitalization through the arts in Hudson, New York.by Christian Willauer.M.C.P

Impact of multi-stacking and resin type on dimensional stability of dentate casts

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the effects of multi-stacking and resin type on the dimensional stability of additively manufactured (AM) dentate casts. Methods: A master maxillary dentate model file was used to AM casts in a multi-stacked manner, consisting of four layers (L1–L4), using two different resins (DentaMODEL [DM] and KeyModel Ultra Ivory [KM], n = 10). Each cast was digitized one day, one week, two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, and three months after fabrication (T0–T5). The scan files were superimposed over the master file to evaluate the dimensional stability of the casts (anterior, posterior, and entire arch) using the root mean square method. Data were analyzed with a generalized linear model (α = 0.05). Results: KM casts had their highest anterior and entire arch deviations when printed at L4 (P < 0.001). DM casts mostly had lower deviations than KM casts across tested layers and storage durations (P < 0.001). DM casts showed the highest anterior deviations at T1 and T2, while KM casts showed the highest at T0, T3, and T4 (P ≤ 0.009). Casts printed at L4 showed the highest anterior deviations at T0 and greater deviations than L1 at T3 and T5, regardless of resin (P ≤ 0.044). KM casts had lower entire arch deviations at T5 than at T3 (P = 0.027). Conclusions: While the differences due to stacking were minimal and clinically negligible, the DM casts mostly had higher stability. All casts remained within clinically acceptable limits over three months. Clinical Significance: Multi-stacking during printing may be an efficient method for large-scale of plateless dentate casts with clinically acceptable dimensional stability for diagnostic and orthodontic use over three months, when tested resins and three-dimensional printer are used
