Hurricane Boundary Layer Structure during Intensity Change
-
A combination of observational and numerical analyses is used to investigate hurricane boundary layer (BL) structure in the context of intensity change. These analyses refer to hurricanes in three modes of intensity change: intensifying (IN), steady-state (SS), and weakening (WE). Observations from global positioning system (GPS) dropwindsondes launched in Atlantic tropical cyclones between 1998 and 2015 are collected for compositing based on intensity change. After quality control and sorting, 3,091 dropwindsondes were composited---1,086 were released into IN hurricanes, 1,042 were released during WE phases, and the remaining 963 releases were associated with steady-state storms. In non-intensifying hurricanes, lower-tropospheric tangential winds were stronger than IN storms outside the radius of maximum winds (RMW), which suggests greater inertial stability I² outside the RMW in non-intensifying hurricanes. The BL radial inflow is of similar thickness across the three composites, and all composite groups have an inflow maximum situated at the RMW. Non-intensifying hurricanes are associated with stronger near-surface inflow outside the eyewall region, which implies more frictionally forced ascent out of the BL at radii outside the RMW. At greater radii, inflow layer Θₑ is relatively low in the WE composite, suggesting enhanced subsidence or downdrafts at those radii. High-resolution numerical case studies of Hurricane Irma in 2017 and Hurricane Earl in 2010 are used to check results found in the composite analysis and highlight BL azimuthal structure. The Weather Research and Forecasting Model for Advanced Research (WRF-ARW) is employed for these full-physics simulations. Irma's strong tangential winds were relatively confined to the RMW, leading to weak I² outside the eyewall. Aside from land interactions, Irma tended to steadily intensify, with an inflow maximum at the RMW and BL ascent isolated inward of the RMW. A brief WE period in Irma was associated with shear- and motion-induced asymmetry, whereby drier air was able to descend into the BL inflow near the RMW. Hurricane Earl had a broader tangential wind field, with high I² outside the eyewall. Earl's strong BL inflow spread over a large radial band, which was associated with widespread BL convergence and shallow ascent outside the RMW. During a prolonged and progressive decay in Earl's intensity, two regions of BL convergence became apparent: one inward of the RMW, and the other well outside the RMW. Descent of low-enthalpy air into the BL near the RMW occurred during Earl's WE phases. Despite shear and storm motion of comparable magnitude to Irma, asymmetries were more pronounced in Earl's BL. Earl's decline in intensity was also associated with strong low-level outflow in the upshear-right quadrant, which may have led to kinematic and thermodynamic evolution that promoted an outer region of BL convergence, as well as an inner-eyewall collapse and coincident secondary eyewall formation., A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy., 2019, August 8, 2019., Boundary, Cyclone, Hurricane, Intensity, Layer, Tropical, Includes bibliographical references., Mark A.

In Pursuit of Indigenous Turkish Philosophy of Education
-
The role of religion in modern education is a discussion that vexed scholars from the Western world as well as Muslim scholars. There are different approaches to the problem. Some scholars argue that religion does not have space in public education while there are others who promote the existence of religion in modern education systems. Ersoy positions himself among the second group. He offers an education system which promotes both religious knowledge and science in schools. His main concern to design an education promoting religious and scientific knowledge is to raise a generation to save the Muslim world from ignorance, poverty, and clashes. By doing so, he intends to serve Islam as he believes it is under threat of misinformed or ignorant Muslim society. Ersoy calls this generation Asım Generation which functions to save the Muslim world and builds bridges between the Western world and Muslims., A Dissertation submitted to the Department of Educational Leadership and Policy Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy., 2019, November 12, 2019., Asim Generation, Education, Mehmet Akif Ersoy, Religion, Turkish Philosophy of Education, Includes bibliographical references., Jeffrey Ayala Milligan, Professor Directing Dissertation; William Hanley, University Representative; Robert Schwartz, Committee Member; Carolyn Herrington, Committee Member.

Precision Doping of Polyelectrolyte Complexes: Insight on the Role of Ions
-
The properties of polyelectrolyte complexes and coacervates, both termed PECs, are influenced strongly by their ion and water content. Water plasticizes PECs, reducing their modulus and glass transition temperature, Tg. In this work, a hydrated PEC with a Tg near room temperature, made from poly(diallyldimethylammonium), PDADMA, and poly(styrene sulfonate), PSS, was precisely doped with 22Na-labeled sodium salts along a Hofmeister series. A distinctive change in the rate of doping versus added salt concentration was observed for all salts. This transition was interpreted to reflect a change in ion-accessible volume coinciding with a change in the role of added salt from counterions for the polyelectrolytes, paired directly and within one water molecule of the charge on the polymer backbone, to a mix of counterions and co-ions, which do not have a specific location within the PEC. Isothermal calorimety for PEC made in, and doped by, NaCl showed two clear regions for enthaply change, ΔH, before and after the doping transition. The higher ΔH region was correlated with the counterion role, an indirect measure of the location of ions within the PEC, This is the accepted manuscript, and the publisher's version of record can be found at https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.macromol.0c00965
