Advanced aerobic digestion to optimize pathogen reduction: Staged pre-treatment in aerobic digestion
… solution for smaller communities that utilize aerobic digestion. However, traditional aerobic digestion produces Class B biosolids at best which raises public concern regarding the fate of pathogens following land application. The main goal of this work was to determine a plan to help an …

Comparison of isoenergetic aerobic versus aerobic plus resistance exercise program during a weight loss program
Nineteen obese women were studied to determine the effects of two different exercise prescriptions which differed in the type of activity but were matched for total energy expenditure. All women met once per week for twelve weeks as a group to receive the same recommendations concerning dietary …

Quantitative genetics and metabolomics of aerobic metabolism
… and physiological bases of variation in maximal aerobic metabolic rate (MMR) are important for understanding exercise physiology and the evolution of aerobic performance, but they still are not well understood. To this end, I studied three aspects of MMR. First, I estimated the genetic variances …
