The Population Dynamics of a Breeding Population of Painted Buntings (Passerina ciris) in North Texas

Urbanization and habitat fragmentation threaten many bird species; however, they can lead to the creation of urban green spaces that provide important breeding habitat. We assessed the viability of the Painted Bunting (Passerina ciris pallidior) population at the Lewisville Lake Environmental Learning Area (LLELA) within the Central conservation subunit. Using capture–mark–recapture (2017-2024) and nesting data (2020–2024), we estimated age- and sex-specific survival and fecundity to parameteri… more

A Study on Elastic Vortex Generators Inspired by Monami

Vortex Generators (VGs) enhance momentum exchange near surfaces by generating streamwise vortices that delay flow separation and improve mixing and heat-transfer efficiency across numerous engineering applications. While Rigid VGs (RVGs) improve performance, they also increase pressure drop, motivating the development of Elastic VGs (EVGs) that deform with the flow and can produce additional coherent vortices with lower pressure-drop penalties. Prior work on single and tandem EVGs has shown imp… more

At The Polls: Analyzing Vote Choice in a Presidential Election by American Indians Utilizing Linked Fate

Does linked fate apply to every minority group, or are there groups where linked fate does not hold? Utilizing the largest American Indian survey sample in political science, I test whether “Native Linked Fate” has a significant relationship with vote choice in the 2020 Presidential Election, analyzed by utilizing a multinomial logistic regression. I find that there is no significant relationship between Native Linked Fate and Vote Choice in the analysis; though I do find significant relationsh… more

Mapping Horizons of Experience: Looking toward Empirical Environmental Racism Studies

This project traces my academic journey from an introduction to feminism to an engagement with ecofeminism, ultimately confronting why my work does not naturally evolve into "ecowomanism" as articulated by Melanie Harris, despite its shared use of standpoint epistemology, intersectional theory, and liberation theology. I then examine avenues for academic activism beyond syllabus construction, arriving at two distinct paths: 1. continuing to publish nuanced debates that redefine disciplinary bou… more

Minoritized Women in Iraq after 2003: An Intersectionality Perspective

The US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 and its consequences have significantly shifted the Iraqi political, social, and cultural milieu. Scholars have analyzed the legacy of the invasion and its influences on women and gender. Yet little scholarship has focused on minority women in post-2003 Iraq. Thus, the dissertation is set to investigate the status, challenges, and experiences of minority women in this critical era of the country’s history. An intersectionality approach has been utilized to ex… more

The Effects of Mastery Criteria on Maintenance and Generalization of Verbal Operants in Children with Autism

A critical component of a skill acquisition program is the mastery criterion, or when can behavior analysts consider a skill acquired. A mastery criterion should contain both a level of performance and a number of demonstrations at or above that level. In this study researchers compared two mastery criteria 80% across three consecutive sessions and 100% across three consecutive sessions, and compared rate of acquisition, and the level of performance across four maintenance and four generalizati… more

RF Application of Additively Manufactured Ceramics: Dielectric Properties Characterization and Antenna Design

Additive manufacturing is changing how radio-frequency components are designed and built, making complex shapes practical and shortening the path from material to device. This thesis investigates two additively manufactured (AM) ceramic materials—boron nitride (BN) and lithium titanate (LTO)—as promising candidates for low-loss, high-performance RF applications. First, I measured their key dielectric properties using a split-post dielectric resonator method and showed how material processing pa… more

Computational Methods for Peptide Identification and Protein Inference in Metaproteomics

Metaproteomics enables the functional profile of complex microbiomes in human, environmental and ecosystem contexts. However, accurate protein identification remains the computational bottleneck. Tandem mass spectra must be searched against vast, sample-specific protein sequences spanning hundreds of taxa; database incompleteness, sequence variation, post-translational modifications, and chimeric spectra degrade sensitivity and calibration. Cross-laboratory comparisons further reveal variabilit… more
