Addition of fat supplements to dairy rations is becoming more common due to the increases in milk yield and milk fat yield that have been observed. This thesis contains two studies that evaluated the effects of palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), and oleic (C18:1) acids in the form of commercially available supplements (C16:0 and C18:0-enriched) or as custom blends (C16:0 and C18:1) on lactating dairy cows.

Show moreAddition of fat supplements to dairy rations is becoming more common due to the increases in milk yield and milk fat yield that have been observed. This thesis contains two studies that evaluated the effects of palmitic (C16:0), stearic (C18:0), and oleic (C18:1) acids in the form of commercially available supplements (C16:0 and C18:0-enriched) or as custom blends (C16:0 and C18:1) on lactating dairy cows. The first experiment used two commercially-available products enriched in either C16:0 (PA) or C18:0 (SA) supplied at 1.5% diet dry matter (DM) and a control diet with no added fat. Fat supplementation increased milk yield, but decreased total FA digestibility when compared to control. PA increased digestibility of total, 16- and 18-carbon FA as well as NDF digestibility, energy corrected milk (ECM), and milk fat yield when compared to SA. In the second experiment, the effect of differing ratios of C16:0 and C18:1 (fed at 1.5% diet DM) was determined using blends that consisted of 80% C16:0 + 10% cis-9 C18:1 (80:10) or 60% C16:0 + 30% C18:1 (60:30) across a wide range in production level. Interactions between preliminary milk yield and treatment were observed for dry matter intake (DMI), and yields of ECM and 3.5% fat-corrected milk (3.5% FCM), indicating that higher producing cows responded better to the 60:30 and lower producing cows responded better to the 80:10. 60:30 increased digestibilities of total, 16- and 18- carbon FA compared with 80:10. Together, this work will provide information that can be used to guide feeding decisions to maximize performance and farm income while using commercial FA supplements.

Show more"Bioretention cells and constructed wetlands are both established best management practices (BMPs) for stormwater quality improvement. These systems vary in terms of hydraulic loading where processes such as retention, sedimentation, absorption, infiltration, filtration, phytoremediation, nitrification and denitrification remove waterborne pollutants. However, the boundary between bioretention and wetlands can be blurred when it comes to design and operational parameters, and it is therefore important to explore the causes and consequences of performance variability in these systems. In an experiment to observe optimum water content for treatment pathways for ecological pollutants, five bioretention bays (2-22% water content) and fifteen bioretention columns (7-47% water content, as much as complete pore space saturation) were used to run parallel tests. Pollutant concentrations were reduced in field bays for COD, TN, and total solids (TS), although there was no difference between treatment groups in terms of any pollutant concentrations. Asclepias incarnata, Carex vulpinoidea, Scirpus validus, and Juncus effusus grew slightly taller in wetter bays, although survival of Sagittaria latifolia was uniformly poor in all treatment groups. No net pollutant removal occurred in columns, although effluent concentrations and mass export were significantly lower for near-saturation treatment groups for chemical oxygen demand (COD), nitrate, and total nitrogen (TN). There was no soil moisture level in which COD, nitrate, TN, phosphate, and TS were simultaneously improved."--Page ii.

Little is known about the amount of water treatment necessary to meet these levels, or significance of said levels, if any, in relation to the total microbial community of marine mammal housing systems and the health of the mammals housed. Using membrane filtration and growth on selective media, concentrations of these indicators were monitored in a system housing Pacific white-sided dolphins over a period of 5 days and compared between exhibit water and water from exhibit plumbing after sand filtration but before ozone treatment. Concentrations were also examined after ozone treatment. Isolates from each media were taxonomically identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and colony counts were analyzed as predictors of 16S rRNA gene community data.All indicator counts were significantly reduced either after sand filtration or after ozone treatment, but none were significantly reduced at both points. Genetic sequencing of isolates from selective and differential media revealed that 10% of presumptive pseudomonads, 19% of presumptive staphylococci, 100% of presumptive enterococci, and 91% of lactose-fermenting total coliforms were members of the expected taxa. Several correlations between indicator counts and individual OTUs from the community as well as overall dissimilarity between community samples were detected.

This study employed a useful conceptual lens from the marketing literature, image, to build a new conceptual framework within journalism, news media image to in aid in this understanding. Using focus group interviewing methods, the perceptions of 44 participants (across nine sessions) living in the Midwest in the U.S. were investigated to reveal the news media image constructs perceived by the public. Through multidisciplinary literature review and group discussions, eight dimensions emerged: news quality, news usefulness, socially responsible, personality, usability, transparent, perspective-taking, and news selection bias. Results showed that participants believed that news media organizations are mostly unreliable and biased in selecting news worthy stories as the news organizations are under the pressure of making profit or political interests. However, the information provided by news organizations was regarded as being useful in getting relevant information to the participants’ lives and news organizations’ potential role of protecting democracy were valued by participants. Exploring how these dimensions represent people's image of the news media provides insight into the current American’s perceptions and biases toward the news media organizations.

Despite its importance, little research has been completed about the persistence of high relative humidity. The goals of this study were to 1) create a baseline climatology of the persistence of high relative humidity (HRH), defined as ≥ 60%, and extremely high relative humidity (EHRH), defined as ≥ 85%, for the Lower Peninsula of Michigan and 2) examine, using persistent EHRH events as a surrogate for leaf wetness duration, the frequency of favorable environmental conditions for apple scab and cherry leaf spot, major crop diseases in the state. Results demonstrate that although overall persistent relative humidity events often occur throughout the state, their frequency appears to be decreasing with time. Temporal trends in the frequency of favorable environmental conditions for apple scab and cherry leaf spot vary by location and disease, but there is a general trend toward fewer occurrence of favorable environmental conditions. The climatological analyses provide Michigan stakeholders with essential information for long-term planning and management to mitigate and/or adapt to persistent high relative humidity and to assess future changes in persistent high relative humidity as expected with climate change.

Show moreThe reliance on fossil fuels to generate most of the world's energy has led to a significant increase in greenhouse gas emissions and the associated negative effects on the climate. The application of energy reducing retrofits allows for significant reductions in total energy use, providing the opportunity to achieve cost savings as well as emissions reductions. Students Planning Advanced Retrofit Technology Applications (SPARTA) was founded to pursue implementation of these retrofits at Michigan State University (MSU). Under this framework, lighting, device, and HVAC retrofits are examined. In commercial spaces, lighting comprises 170303% of total electricity used. The economic viability of retrofitting LEDs in place of fluorescent ceiling fixtures as well as various control methods are determined. The energy use intensity of the average office space on the MSU campus is also analyzed and equipment changes are recommended to decrease the total energy footprint. Conversion from electricity driven cooling to steam driven cooling is evaluated as a method for increasing efficiency of the co-generation power plant and decreasing total fuel consumption. Finally, activities aimed at engaging the public on renewable energy generation are described, which are based on the development of paintable luminescent solar concentrators that combine art and energy. A number of techniques for reducing energy use on the MSU campus have been analyzed which can be applied across a broad spectrum of spaces. Continuing to aggressively pursue the implementation of this framework as well as tracking key economic indicators outlined will ultimately make MSU cleaner and more sustainable. -- Abstract.

IPV survivors need access to material and community resources - whether they are leaving their abusers or choosing to stay in the relationship. Previous research has found that women who have experienced IPV are four times as likely to experience housing instability. The current IPV system focuses mainly on providing shelter, support groups, counseling, and legal advocacy, but has fewer financial resources. This qualitative study focused on a pilot program in Washington D.C. that offered select survivors financial grants to address whatever the survivor defined as threatening their housing stability. Survivors were interviewed 30-days post-grant to assess their housing status and explore other grant impacts. All survivors in the sample were still housed 30- days post-grant. Survivors described the impact of the grants as extending beyond financial issues, resulting in stress relief, improved parenting, increased ability to focus on work and family and improvements in physical and mental health. The financial aspect of the grant was important, but the role of advocacy also appears crucial to these survivors."--Page ii.

In order to transition UHPC materials into mainstream construction practices, there are needs to develop refined mix design procedures that enable production of UHPC using primarily locally available materials, resolves the problems with production of homogeneous UHPC mixtures using commonly available concrete mixers, develop convenient fresh mix workability test methods that consider the peculiar rheology of fresh UHPC mixtures, and quantify some aspects of the UHPC material properties that have not been fully characterized. The UHPC materials were tested for fresh mix flow and hardened concrete compressive strength. The trends in the effects of packing density, water film thickness and excess paste film thickness on compressive strength and fresh mix flow were investigated. The results were used to identify viable ranges of these defining characteristics of UHPC mixtures. Response surface analysis of the fresh mix flow and the hardened concrete compressive strength test results led to identification of the optimum values of mix design parameters. The optimum mix was prepared, and was found to produce a highly desired balance of fresh mix flow and hardened concrete compressive strength, which occurred within the ranges predicted by response surface analysis of experimental results."--Page ii.

Our goal was to update the disease management tactics by: 1) Testing OMRI-approved and conventional fungicides and 2) Evaluating TOM-CAST. Trials were conducted in 2015 and 2016. Disease severity was visually assessed weekly using the Horsfall-Barratt scale and a petiole health scale; the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) was calculated for these parameters. Root yield was determined at harvest. Based on AUDPC results obtained in 2015 and 2016, the copperbased fungicides (copper hydroxide and copper hydroxide + copper oxychloride) were the only OMRI-approved products that significantly and consistently limited foliar blight. On the final assessment dates in both years, all conventional fungicides limited foliar and petiole blighting compared to the control with one exception; the propiconazole treatment in 2016 was similar to the control for petiole health. Yields differed significantly among the conventional treatments in 2016 but not in 2015. All treatments yielded significantly higher than the control except for iprodione. Treatments of pyraclostrobin + boscalid, fluxapyroxad + pyraclostrobin, and boscalid had statistically higher yields than penthiopyrad, iprodione, and propiconazole. TOM-CAST 15 and 25 DSV fungicide application schedules effectively reduced foliar blighting in 2015 under relatively light disease pressure. However, the TOM-CAST 25 DSV schedule did not adequately limit disease in 2016 when disease pressure was increased. Recently registered fungicides such as penthiopyrad and fluxapyroxad + pyraclostrobin and using TOM-CAST at the more conservative spray threshold of 15 DSV can help growers limit fungal foliar blight in years with higher disease pressure."--Page ii.

The burn area is overseen by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) and encompasses approximately 8900 ha (21,000 acres) near the mouth of the Two Hearted River on the south shore of Lake Superior. After the fire, replanting by the MDNR and natural regeneration has taken place. Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) imagery of ten 1-ha study plots were collected via a MicaSense Red Edge camera simultaneously capturing images in the Red, Green, Blue, Red Edge and NIR bands. Images were collected at 60 meters altitude with platform velocity of 6 m/s. Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) in eCognnition Developer was conducted to assess the regrowth of jack pine in the Duck Lake forest and answer three questions: What is the level of accuracy that can be achieved via GEOBIA for detecting young jack pine saplings? How does the use of the Red Edge (RE) spectral band affect image classification accuracy? How does seasonal change affect the accuracy that can is achieved by the UAS and GEOBIA method? GEOBIA classification accuracies ranged from 59.5-97.5% with the NIR-R band combination performing the best overall and RE performing the worst. An overall increase in accuracy was observed as the season progressed with the highest average accuracy in time three (T3) at 78.4% across all bands.

Show moreThe concentrations of inorganic nitrogen, including nitrate (NO3-), are fundamental controls on the trophic state of aquatic ecosystems. Excess NO3- degrades drinking water quality, and therefore there is a need to understand processes that remove inorganic nitrogen. Controls on NO3- removal at the sediment-water interface (SWI) of aquatic ecosystems include both biogeochemical and hydrologic conditions, however the relative importance and interactions of these controls are poorly understood. This thesis explores these controls on NO3- removal using a series of in-situ experiments involving both biogeochemical and hydrologic manipulations of the SWI in both lake and stream settings. Specifically, manipulative experiments altered dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and NO3- concentrations, as well as physical hydrologic residence times. The fate of NO3- in these manipulation experiments was traced by pairing isotopically labeled 15N-NO3- tracer experiments with controlled variable-head infiltrometer rings to isolate the sediment-water system and control the hydrology of the SWI. With these experiments, I was able to isolate biogeochemical versus hydrologic controls on rates of NO3- removal and denitrification rates. I found that increasing NO3- and DOC concentrations increased NO3- removal and denitrification rates in the SWI, but that increases in physical residence time had a stronger effect on increasing NO3- removal and denitrification rates, especially under conditions where DOC and NO3- availability were not limiting.

Show moreCorollary discharge (CD) signals are "copies" of motor signals sent to sensory areas to predict the impending input. Because they are used to distinguish actions generated by oneself versus external forces, altered CD has been hypothesized to result in the commonly-observed agency disturbances in schizophrenia patients (SZP). Behavioral evidence for altered CD in SZP has been observed in multiple sensorimotor domains, including the oculomotor system; however, its exact neural underpinning is unknown. One oculomotor CD pathway identified in primates projects from motor neurons in the superior colliculus (SC) to visual neurons in the frontal eye fields (FEF) via the mediodorsal thalamus (MDT). The current study aimed to examine the structural connectivity of MDT-FEF pathway in SZP and whether it relates to oculomotor CD abnormalities. Twenty-four SZP and 22 healthy controls (HC) underwent diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and a large subset of those individuals also performed the blanking task, an eye movement task that measures the influence of CD on visual perception. Probabilistic tractography was used to identify white matter tracts connecting FEF and MDT. Microstructural integrity of these tracts was compared across groups and correlated with behavioral indices of oculomotor CD from the blanking task and symptom severity. We found that SZP had compromised microstructural integrity in MDT-FEF pathway. This hypoconnectivity was correlated with both impaired oculomotor CD signals and more severe positive symptoms in SZP. These data suggest that the MDT-FEF pathway may serve an important role in transmitting oculomotor CD signals, which in turn may relate to positive symptom manifestation in SZP.

Although negative affect and spectatorial embodiment are often central to critical discourse on New Extremism, this thesis instead attends to the interlocking aesthetic, narrative, and spatio-temporal expressions of affect as they correlate with neoliberal politics of respectability and reproduction. By deploying feminism and queer theory, this thesis locates positive, productive potentials within formal expressions of negative affect that mobilize a political critique of the violences within each film. In so doing, the selected film examples--Fabrice Du Welz's Calvaire (2004), Marina de Van's Dans ma peu (2002), Olivier Assayas's Demonlover (2002), Bruno Dumont's Twentynine Palms (2004), François Ozon's Criminal Lovers (2001), Alain Guiraudie's Stranger by the Lake (2014), to name a few--portray the shifting relations between politics, gender, and sexuality in the neoliberal present and offer critical alternatives for how such developments have impacted and impeded sociality.
