Abstract:
The object of this thesis is to present two novel applications of Spatiotemporal Image Correlation Spectroscopy (STICS) to biological systems. STICS is a technique which uses the correlations in pixel intensity fluctuations of an image time series, captured under fluorescence microscopy, to measure the speed and direction of a flowing population of fluorescently labeled molecules. The method was first applied to measure the dynamics of transport vesicles inside growing pollen tubes of lily flowers. The measured vector maps allowed to confirm the presence of actin filaments along the periphery

Abstract:
Previous investigations have focused on the development of bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) models and the implementation of computationally-efficient procedures for model inversion. The present study explores the operational use of BRDF models since little is known about producing BRDF at an operational level. Earlier work indicated that the angular sampling regimes of sensors influenced the accuracy of albedo estimated from BRDF models and multiple view angle (MVA) data. This work takes this a stage further by attempting to quantify the albedo error from present and fut

Abstract:
Calcium imaging has been used as a promising technique to monitor the dynamic activity of neuronal populations. However, the calcium trace is temporally smeared which restricts the extraction of quantities of interest such as spike trains of individual neurons. To address this issue, spike reconstruction algorithms have been introduced. One limitation of such reconstructions is that the underlying models are not informed about the biophysics of spike and burst generations. Such existing prior knowledge might be useful for constraining the possible solutions of spikes. Here we describe, in a no

Abstract:
Monitoring and identifying the state of rangelands on a landscape scale can be a time consuming process. In this thesis, remote sensing imagery has been used to show how the process of classifying different ecological sites and states can be done on a per pixel basis for a large landscape. Twenty-seven years' worth of remotely sensed imagery was collected, atmospherically corrected, and radiometrically normalized. Several vegetation indices were extracted from the imagery along with derivatives from a digital elevation model. Dominant vegetation components from five major ecological sites in R

An unsupervised classification was applied to continuous biophysical variables in an attempt to delineate ecoregional boundaries in the desert southwest.

An attempt was made to use the same biophysical variables for input into the unsupervised classification as was emphasized by the various agencies with their ecoregional classifications at the desert level.

Two alternative representations of amino acids that incorporated biophysical data were created and tested. They were tested both separately and in combination on a standard 7-fold cross-validation set of 126 proteins. The best performance was achieved using an average result from two predictions. This w

Abstract:
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)<br>Carbon nanomaterials are widely produced and used in industry, medicine and scientific research. To examine the impact of exposure to nanoparticles on human health, the human airway epithelial cell line, Calu-3, was used to evaluate changes in the cellular proteome that could account for alterations in cellular function of airway epithelia after 24 h exposure to 10 μg/mL and 100 ng/mL of two common carbon nanoparticles, singleand multi-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNT, MWCNT). After exposure to the nanoparticles, label-free quantitative

Abstract:
Use management in marine protected areas is a complex and often changing process, both because of political and legislative requirements and because of the diversity of user groups. It is therefore essential to have accurate and reliable information to guide development of the most appropriate management instruments within a given area. This thesis explores the challenge for marine protected area managers of making cost-effective use of scientific information in planning for reasonable use of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park. Using the 1998 Cairns Area Plan of Management as a case study,

Abstract:
This Thesis presents a framework for modelling species-specific site quality index (SQI) at a spatial resolution of 250 m by integrating biophysical variables of growing degree days (GDD), soil water content (SWC), and incident photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in descriptions of potential tree growth. Development of GDD maps is based on processing and blending remotely-sensed data acquired with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor on the Terra satellite and ETM+ sensor on Landsat-7 satellite at spatial resolutions of 250 m and 28.5 m. Descriptions of SWC ar

Abstract:
We have developed an analytical technique for single molecule force spectroscopy (SMFS) data that avoids filtering prior to analysis and performs pattern recognition to identify distinct SMFS events. The technique characterizes the signal similarity between all curves in a data set and generates a hierarchical clustering tree, from which clusters can be identified, aligned, and examined to identify key patterns. This procedure was applied to alpha-lactalbumin (aLA) on polystyrene substrates with flat and nanoscale curvature, and bacteriorhodopsin (bR) adsorbed on mica substrates. Cluster patte

Abstract:
abstract: The superior brightness and ultra short pulse duration of X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) allows it to outrun radiation damage in coherent diffractive imaging since elastic scattering terminates before photoelectron cascades commences. This “diffract-before-destroy” feature of XFEL opened up new opportunities for biological macromolecule imaging and structure studies by breaking the limit to spatial resolution imposed by the maximum dose that is allowed before radiation damage. However, data collection in serial femto-second crystallography (SFX) using XFEL is affected by a bunch o
