Spatial Relationship between the Trichloroethylene Degrading Bacteria Dehalococcoides Sp., Sulfate Reducers and Archaea during Reductive Dechlorination
… from the source of the TCE. It also examined the spatial relationship between Dehalococcoides sp., Archaea and SRB with respect to reducing equivalents (e.g., food) in different types of aquifer environment contaminated with TCE. The DNA analysis was performed by using quantitative polymerase …

The Spatial Relationship Between Septic System Failure and Environmental Factors in Washington Township, Marion County, Indiana
… septic systems thrive or fail based on the relationship with their local environment. This paper explores ways environmental variables such as soil type, tree roots, degree of slope, and impervious surfaces affect on-site wastewater treatment systems. It also discusses the effects each of …

A settlement-level perspective of the spatial relationship between economic performance and population change in South Africa between 2001 and 2011
… is a functional and inevitable outcome of spatial inequality. Economic drivers of migration are most frequently used to explain population movements in the South African context, given, especially, that slow and uneven economic growth, economic disparities, inequality and unemployment …

Spatial dependency between a linear network and a point pattern
In this mini-dissertation we discuss the spatial relationship between point processes and a linear network. As a starting point, we discuss basic spatial point processes and tests for first-order homogeneity. Following that, we discuss second-order properties of point processes in the form of …

My own, private Washington
… between national and corporate identities, their spatial relationship to the public realm are beginning to blur. The expanding influence of private entities in public affairs necessitates and exploration of how public architecture is dealt with in responds to the needs of two distinctive user …

Placing the dead: the spatial distribution and spread of HIV in a major South African city
… GIS involved geographic maps that detect the spatial relationship between HIV prevalence rates and vectors that drive the pandemic.

Exploring the spatial implications of capacity constraints in public transportation systems : a scenario-based analysis of London
… from further crowding. However, analyzing the spatial relationship between available capacity and economic impacts may not be straightforward, and common modeling practice can bias results. Improved modeling practice that more realistically includes capacity and crowding effects has the …

Far-Right Extremism in America: A Geospatial Analysis of Incident Distribution
… has been little empirical research on the spatial relationship of violent far-right extremism. Previous studies have only focused on portions of far-right violent incidents, such as homicides, or amalgamated all far-right extremist activity, including legal incidents. This study uses data …

Temporal Changes in the Spatial Distribution of Venture Capital Investment to Biotechnology Companies within the United States.
… is to investigate temporal changes in the spatial distribution of venture capital investments to biotechnology companies within the United States. Data included venture capital to biotech investments from 1995 to 2005. Venture capital and biotech data from the Money Tree Report, were …

The Spatiality of Housing Price Risk and Return in The Greater Toronto Area
… and some of these studies control for its spatial structure. There is a deficiency, however, in studies that examine the spatial relationship of risk at varying spatial scales and even fewer that do so in a Canadian context. The current study addresses these deficiencies by examining …

Maritime resource exploitation in southwest Australia prior to 1901
… fish. An argument is developed that the socio-spatial relationship which existed between peoples and marine• estuarine species in the region was determined by the physiography and climate. This relationship has always been imperfect, if not chaotic because of the unpredictability of the …

The Neural Correlates of Spatial Language
… in order to investigate the neural correlates of spatial language, which can be thought of as language used to communicate the spatial relationship of one object to another. In a first experiment, participants completed a task during which they listened to auditory sentences about object …

Analysis of molecular conformations using relative planes
… to the receptor. It is necessary to study the spatial relationship of these molecular recognition features in order to determine the pharmacophore of the drug. This is a particularly difficult problem when the drug is a flexible molecule with many energetically accessible conformations. In this …

The spatial and temporal dynamics of commuting : examining the impacts of urban growth patterns, 1980-2000
… the issues of urban transportation and urban spatial structure change. The focus of the research is to interpret the increase in commuting time and distance in the last two decades. The major hypothesis is that a significant proportion of commuting length increase can be explained by land …

Stochastic mapping for chemical plume source localization with application to autonomous hydrothermal vent discovery
… vent prospecting. Turbulent flows make the spatial relationship between the detectable manifestation of a chemical plume source, the plume itself, and the location of its source inherently uncertain. Search domains with multiple sources compound this uncertainty because the number of sources …

A Study of the Ceramics at the Ebert Canebrake Site (1MC25)
… Valley in western Alabama. The temporal and spatial relationship of these materials on site is examined through an artifact analysis based upon stratified samples recovered from the 2012 excavation at the site and a 1997 program of auger testing. Sand tempered vessels were made on-site for …

Moving-baseline localization for mobile wireless sensor networks
… and inter-device communication to infer the spatial relationship and motion of all other nodes with respect to itself. We consider a setting in which nodes move with piecewise-linear velocities in the plane, and any node can exchange noisy range estimates with certain sufficiently nearby …
