    • A Comparison of Dual-Polarimetric Radar Variables in Two Lake-Effect Storms With and Without Lightning During Project LEE

      Ezekiel Caldon; Scott Steiger; Yonggang Wang (2024)
      Dual-polarimetric radar variables are analyzed from two intensive observation periods (IOPs) of the Lake-Effect Electrification (LEE) Project – one with lightning, on 20 Nov 2022, and one without lightning, on 19 Dec 2022 – to form and test baseline radar variable characteristics for lightning in cool-season lake-effect storms.
    • 2023 Canadian Wildfire Impacts on Air Quality in the Northeastern United States

      Sarah Gryskewicz; Bonne Ford; Jenny Hand (2024)
      The Northeast, a region that infrequently experiences severe wildfire smoke impacts, endured abnormally poor air quality conditions in 2023 due to Canadian wildfires. This study utilized the IMPROVE (Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments) ground-based network to investigate the origination, transport, air quality impacts, and anomalies of wildfire smoke concentrations in June and July 2023.
    • Cortisol Analysis and Receptor Genotyping in the Oswego Student Meditation Study

      Devon Seale; Kestutis Bendinsksas; Staceyann Reid; Karen Wolford (2024)
      We intend to help our collaborators assess the effects of meditation on physiologic stress. We successfully sequenced the FKBP5 gene's SNP rs1360780 in researchers and are working towards measuring hair cortisol concentration in collected samples. Our research successfully amplifies the target sequence from salivary DNA from several custom primer pairs.
    • Cyclopropanated Lipid-Like Ionic Liquids

      Christopher Butch; Michael Knopp; Arsalan Mirjafari (2024)
      Interest regarding ionic liquids have emerged due to their non-volatility, non-flammability, and thermodynamic stability. Inspired by homeoviscous adaptation, recent developments of “lipid-like� structures containing cyclopropyl motifs resulted in the depression of melting point to be used in various applications. With imidazole-based ionic liquids previously studied, the synthesis and use of triazole-based motifs are still in question. Herein, we will begin to look into synthetic strategies for triazole-based lipid-like ionic liquids containing cyclopropyl substituents in order to achieve new physical and chemical properties.
    • Road Deicer and Fluvial Chloride Loading in the Semi-Arid

      J.R. Slosson (2024)
      Five stream study sites in Colorado Springs, Colorado are investigated to determine the impact of seasonal road deicer use. Winter chloride loads approximately double in the largest stream studied compared to the fall and spring seasons, with chloride loads in the most urbanized stream increasing nearly seven-fold during the winter.
    • Investigating a ladder-type Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) in cesium

      Shaheen Chowdhury; Rayhan Rinzan; Priyanka Rupasinghe (2024)
      Electromagnetically Induced Transparency (EIT) is a quantum interference effect that enhances light transmission through a medium by inducing a transparency window as a coupling light beam and probe light beam undergo superposition inside that medium. In this study, we delve into the EIT phenomena within a cesium gas cell.
    • Synergies between Case-based Reasoning and Deep Learning for Survival Analysis in Oncology

      Isabelle Bichindaritz; Gerald Gaitos (2024)
      Survival analysis is routinely used in medicine to stratify patients in groups based on risk and has paramount importance in patient stratification and treatment. This work combines bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory LSTM and case-based reasoning to provide accurate and interpretable survival predictions that perform better than state-of-the-art survival analysis methods.
    • Status of Bobolinks (Dolichonyx oryzivorus) in Low-Maintenance Hayfields at Fallbrook Lodge

      Nikki Knecht; Daniel Baldassarre (2024)
      Bobolinks have had drastic population declines, largely due to mowing of fields interfering with their reproductive success. One solution is the management of fields with no mowing. A population under this management scheme was observed during the 2024 breeding season, and was found to be successful in producing fledglings.
    • Expanding Film History Through Research at the Academy oF Motion Picture Arts & Science

      Amy Shore; Sebastian Tauriello (2024)
      Professor Amy Shore and student Sebastian Tauriello were awarded a Faculty-Student Challenge Grant to study the history of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences during the summer of 2024. This research included three elements: 1) review of existing literature; 2) research through the Academy’s online archives and library materials; 3) research in person at the Margaret Herrick Library’s Special Collections in Los Angeles. Through this research, the team identified three topics for further research and development: 1) The Academy’s role in establishing film education in the United States; 2) The opportunity to document and study the “life� of a film during the Studio Era of Hollywood--from script to screen, reception and conservation; 3) The Academy Awards’ role in shaping the production, marketing, and distribution of films on an annual calendar and the emergence and evolution of Oscar campaigns. These topics are outlined below, particularly as they relate to three key components of the contemporary Academy: the archive, the library, and the awards.
    • Numerical Simulation of a Severe Convective Storm in Texas using the WRF Model

      Jason Ruiz; Peter Tolmsa; Yonggang Wang (2024)
      This research study focuses on some of the most crucial atmospheric variables that fuel long-lived, dangerous tornado outbreaks. Understanding these variables with model simulations is essential for predicting severe storms hazards. This numerical study analyzed variables including CAPE (convective available potential energy), vorticity, updraft motion, and moisture in order to discover potential patterns in a devastating tornado outbreak, particularly the outbreak of April 29, 2017 in Texas.
    • The Van Buren Inn & Tavern Historic Preservation Archaeology Field School Summer 2024

      Alanna Ossa; Summer Field School Crew 2024 (2024)
      As a surviving 19th century era historic business and dwelling for the John Van Buren family (cousin to President Martin Van Buren), and with a significant part of the existing and original tavern structure built in the 1810-1820s, the Van Buren Inn and Tavern site represents a unique piece of Oswego county’s local early settler history. The field school project for Summer 2024 identified the midden (trash heap) associated with the Inn and Tavern and the blacksmith shop and cooper shop structures. Excavation and artifact analyses identified a primarily early 19th century occupation with a combination of local and imported tableware and materials.
    • Expression and Purification of Complement Factor H (CFH) to Understand Bridge Between Coagulation and Inflammation

      Grace Stryker; Dylan Webber; Julia R. Koeppe (2024)
      Complement Factor H (CFH) is a protein that regulates an innate immune defense and prevents damage to self-tissue by inactivating complement component C3b. To characterize interactions between CFH and other plasma proteins, CFH was expressed from Pichia pastoris and then purified by ion exchange chromatography and size exclusion.
