    Colorado State University - Civil and Environmental Engineering.Includes bibliographical references.Better irrigation water management requires accurate estimates of crop water use. Modeling evapotranspiration (ET) using the surface energy balance approach and remote sensing data has been showing promising results, but the complex nature of heat and momentum transfers among land, plants, and atmosphere has imposed a challenge towards obtaining more accurate crop water consumptive use results. The project aims to improve estimates of crop ET by improving the estimation of sensible heat (H), the most critical component of the surface energy balance, through a combined application of remote sensing data and an aerodynamic temperature approach

    The author analyses problems of disease, dying, and death addressed in a play by Margaret Edson entitled Wit. Special attention is paid to the structure of meta-theatre and the function of wit in the play. The author investigates limitations of reason in the approach adopted by the doctors who take care of Vivian Bearing, and who subject her to an excruciating experiment in order to achieve a potential research success. She also discusses the protagonist’s attitude to literary works, dealing with her own disease, to other people and to God. This offers an opportunity to ruminate on the exact meaning of irretrievable loss involved in suffering. She also concentrates on the attitude of the nurse who – thanks to her emotional intelligence and empathy – accompanies Vivian on her way to death

    Pathological frame and functional convenience of tuberculosis in Cambodia : looking beyond detection and treatment

    No full text
    Treatment for endemic diseases such as tuberculosis exists but these diseases continue to disproportionately plague those living in poverty. Tuberculosis is a complex public health issue and is a major challenge that defies pragmatic and instrumental treatment methods of detection and treatment. Currently, the causation of the disease is predominantly framed as a medical problem, which systematically excludes social variants, which narrows our understanding of treatment methodologies. By employing actor-network theory as a comprehensive scope for analysing interactions across varying stakeholders, I argue that there is vital need to view diseases as manifestations of social dysfunctions. Public health networks and policies with unequal representations reflect asymmetrical power structures which could paradoxically be a disservice to the very people it aims to serve. However, the dysfunctional network continues to function because of the inherent operational rationality and functional convenience which leads to pragmatic routine processes that predisposes behaviours of each actor. As such, the study aims to utilize a relational theory to encompass varied actor’s perspectives and to understand why, despite international and national efforts to control the epidemic; the disease continues to affect many.Bachelor of Art
