▼ To understand the physical and geological processes that drive the volcanism and control the morphology of KEJ volcano, the only active submarine volcano in the Lesser Antilles volcanic arc, I conducted near-source, high-resolution bathymetry and magnetic mapping of KEJ volcano and its subsurface using the ROV Hercules during cruise NA054 of the E/V Nautilus (Sept.-Oct. 2014). In our results, multiple generations of submarine landslides and well-developed canyons are observed, suggesting that the area has been hosting dynamic sediment transport systems from the flank of the volcano to the seafloor at multiple scales over time, with some of them being attributed to past eruptions. The canyons likely formed from in situ gravity flows due to the lack of evidence for subsidence in the area of KEJ. Columnar basalts located in the middle of the landslide deposit are similar in appearance to those observed in the KEJ crater during previous ROV dives, indicating a possible extent of a landslide event, i.e. a travel distance of volcanic materials from the crater region along landslide path. Landslide triggers at KEJ are still debated, but sector collapse of the edifice has been numerically predicted to be the failure style. High-resolution near-bottom magnetic anomaly data is used to investigate ongoing volcanism at KEJ, and revealed a magnetic anomaly high within the inner crater of KEJ. The source of the dichotomy in magnetization is both a dike complex at the inner crater and a fault trending NNE-SSW. I propose the following cyclic evolution scenario of KEJ from eruption events to inter-eruption periods, by combining seafloor morphology observations, integrating high-resolution bathymetry maps, ROV visuals and rock samples from the wholesale KEJ, and subsurface characterization with high-resolution near-bottom magnetic survey of KEJ crater and inner crater. KEJ formed from arc volcanism; the magma rises quickly though the magma conduits to the shallow subsurface with a series of dikes; it erupted in shallow water depth; it erupted in an explosive style; these volcanic eruptions trigger a landslide and deposit material downslope; submarine canyons form from in situ submarine gravity flows until next the eruption.

▼ Several areas of prostate cancer (PCa) management, such as imaging permanent brachytherapy implants or small, aggressive lesions, benefit from high image resolution. Current PCa imaging methods can have inadequate resolution for imaging these areas. Endorectal digital prostate tomosynthesis (endoDPT), an imaging method that combines an external x-ray source and an endorectal x-ray sensor, can produce three-dimensional images of the prostate region that have high image resolution compared to typical methods. This high resolution may improve PCa management and increase positive outcomes in affected men. This dissertation presents the initial development of endoDPT, including system design, image quality assessment, and examples of possible applications to prostate imaging. Experiments using computational phantoms, physical phantoms, and canine prostate specimens were conducted. Initial system design was performed computationally and three methods of endoDPT image reconstruction were developed: shift and add (SAA), backprojection (BP), and filtered BP (FBP). A physical system was developed using an XDR intraoral x-ray sensor and a GE radiography unit. The resolution and radiation dose of endoDPT were measured and compared to a GE CT scanner. Canine prostate specimens that approximated clinical cases of PCa management were imaged and compared using endoDPT, the above CT scanner, and a GE MRI scanner. This study found that the resolution of endoDPT was significantly higher than CT. The radiation dose of endoDPT was significantly lower than CT in the regions of the phantom that were not in the endoDPT field of view (FoV). Inside the endoDPT FoV, the radiation dose ranged from significantly less than to significantly greater than CT. The endoDPT images of the canine prostate specimens demonstrated qualitative improvements in resolution compared to CT and MRI, but endoDPT had difficulty in visualizing larger structures, such as the prostate border. Overall, this study has demonstrated endoDPT has high image resolution compared to typical methods of PCa imaging. Future work will be focused on development of a prototype system that improves scanning efficiency that can be used to optimize endoDPT and perform pre-clinical studies.

▼ The release of oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) from tailings ponds is a major environmental issue that oil sands companies must consider over the next decade. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) and biological treatment processes have been shown to be able to degrade contaminant compounds and reduce toxicity of this OSPW. However, these processes are also associated with by-products generation which may be of environmental concern. This study successfully combined High Resolution Mass Spectrometry (HRMS) as an analytical tool to detect organic compounds (markers) in OSPW samples and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a statistical tool to manage the extensive HRMS datasets (over 1000 markers per sample). The HRMS and PCA were used to determine the markers most significantly changed during ozonation in different conditions and biological treatment processes and to determine their potential by-products. Based on m/z values, all the significant markers selected by PCA were designated into groups including naphthenic acids (NAs), oxidized NAs and unknown compounds. Of these markers, the main focus in this study was the unknown compounds given their trends in OSPW treatment processes have not been assessed previously. The significant unknown markers which decreased over treatment time were degraded during treatments; while those which increased over time were by-products of organic compounds found in raw OSPW treated by ozonation in different conditions and biological treatment processes. There were negligible or very low concentrations of compounds which were identified as by-products in ozonation in different conditions and biological treatment processes found in different raw OSPWs (Syncrude West in Pit, Suncor Pond 7 and CNRL OSPW). These compounds in raw OSPWs showed negative correlations to NAs concentrations and positive correlations to oxidized NAs concentrations, which indicate their close association with NAs degradation via oxidation. This study demonstrates an advanced approach to determining by-products that can be further used for any chemical or biological treatment process. Further research aimed at the identification of by-products structures and determination of potential degradation mechanisms will be useful in assessing treatment efficiency of OSPW compounds.

▼ High resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is desirable for better in vivo tissue characterization. The overall aim of this dissertation is to develop new RF pulses that address problems hindering high-resolution MRI. MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI), diffusion MRI (dMRI), and functional MRI (fMRI) are three applications of interest. For MRSI, we proposed to use patient-tailored spectral-spatial pulses to substitute the spectrally selective pulses used in the time-efficient chemical-shift based water suppression methods, whose performance is degraded by the subject-dependent B1 inhomogeneity that increases at ultra-high field. MR spectra of high spatial resolution with good quality were obtained in in-vivo experiments within clinically feasible durations using the proposed water suppression sequence. For dMRI, Generalized SLIce Dithered Enhanced Resolution (gSlider) is a newly developed RF encoding method to acquire high-resolution images. However, the peak power of the multi-banded refocusing pulse of this technique can become too high and require the use of the variable-rate selective excitation (VERSE) algorithm, which can mitigate this issue but brings in B0-related distortion in the slice profile. Here we show that the refocusing pulse can be root-ﬂipped to minimize its peak amplitude and obviate the use of VERSE, while preserving gSlider encoding and linear-phase spin. High isotropic resolution in vivo whole-brain diffusion images were acquired with gSlider-SMS using proposed RF encoding pulses. For fMRI, MR Corticography is a developing imaging technique which aims for high resolution functional imaging. It will use inner volume suppression (IVS) to enable highly accelerated imaging, by reducing g-factor and suppressing physiological noise from ventricle cerebrospinal fluid. However, the subject-tailored 3D parallel-transmit RF pulse design for IVS has prohibitive memory and computational requirements if the conventional spatial domain formulation is used. We proposed a highly parallelizable k-space domain design method to substitute the conventional spatial domain deign method. The proposed k-space domain design largely decreased the computation time and provided equal IVS performance as the conventional spatial domain design in simulations. Its ability to accommodate excitation k-space undersampling and correct off-resonance were also shown. Advisors/Committee Members: Grissom, William (advisor), Grisso (committee member).

▼ Background: A number of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) genes have been shown to be under positive selection pressure in the presence of anti-TB therapy. This results in the selection of drug resistant phenotypes associated with genetic changes—which can be point mutations, deletions and/or insertions. Some mutations from multiple genes have been documented to be associated with reduced susceptibility to anti-TB drugs such as rifampicin, ethambutol, carpreomycin and fluoroquinolones. The list is continuously updated as new mutations are discovered and validated. In principle therefore, there is an urgent need to design robust molecular diagnostics and more efficacious therapeutic strategies that are able to indicate diverse genetic mechanisms behind drug resistance in individual isolates Materials and Methods: We used the LightForge system we developed at K-RITH. This LightForge system is a fluorescence detection based, highly scalable microfluidic platform. It interrogates Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains using Real-Time PCR and High Resolution Melt Analysis (HRMA) on a chip. Results and Discussion: We have used this LightForge system to identify clinical Mtb strains resistant to rifampicin—a frontline drug used to treat tuberculosis, relative to a susceptible strain H37RV, based on mutations in the rpoB gene. This system has the potential to contribute towards a low-cost solution to diagnosis of multidrug resistant tuberculosis—a current critical global healthcare challenge. The interrogation of clinical Mtb isolates—including R35, KZN 605 and Tkk 01-062—using the LightForge system has detected mutations linked to rifampicin resistance including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a congruous manner with commercial systems. Conclusions: In preparation for diagnosis of clinical samples, this LightForge approach is now being expanded to incorporate detection of genetic markers linked with resistance to other TB drugs that include fluoroquinolones and isoniazid based on mutations in gyrA, katG and Mab-inhA regions of the Mtb genome. The scalability of LightForge can also be harnessed to conduct digital PCR (dPCR), a critical tool for detecting genetic heterogeneity in Mtb. Advisors/Committee Members: Balagaddé, Frederick.

▼ As the problem of identifying suicide bombers wearing explosives concealed under clothing becomes increasingly important, it becomes essential to detect suspicious individuals at a distance. Systems which employ multiple sensors to determine the presence of explosives on people are being developed. Their functions include observing and following individuals with intelligent video, identifying explosives residues or heat signatures on the outer surface of their clothing, and characterizing explosives using penetrating X-rays, terahertz waves, neutron analysis, or nuclear quadrupole resonance. At present, mm-wave radar is the only modality that can both penetrate and sense beneath clothing at a distance of 2 to 50 meters without causing physical harm. Unfortunately, current mm-wave radar systems capable of performing high-resolution, real-time imaging require using arrays with a large number of transmitting and receiving modules; therefore, these systems present undesired large size, weight and power consumption, as well as extremely complex hardware architecture. The overarching goal of this thesis is the development and experimental validation of a next generation inexpensive, high-resolution radar system that can distinguish security threats hidden on individuals located at 2-10 meters range. In pursuit of this goal, this thesis proposes the following contributions: (1) Development and experimental validation of a new current-based, high-frequency computational method to model large scattering problems (hundreds of wavelengths) involving lossy, penetrable and multi-layered dielectric and conductive structures, which is needed for an accurate characterization of the wave-matter interaction and EM scattering in the target region; (2) Development of combined Norm-1, Norm-2 regularized imaging algorithms, which are needed for enhancing the resolution of the images while using a minimum number of transmitting and receiving antennas; (3) Implementation and experimental validation of new calibration techniques, which are needed for coherent imaging with multistatic congurations; and (4) Investigation of novel compressive antennas, which spatially modulate the waveeld in order to enhance the information transfer effciency between sampling and imaging regions and use of Compressive Sensing algorithms.

▼ Forecast verification remains a crucial component of improving model forecasts, but still remains a challenge to perform. An objective method is developed to verify simulated reflectivity against radar reflectivity at a 1 km altitude utilizing the Method for Object-based Diagnostic Evaluation (MODE) Tool. Comparing the reflectivity field allows for an instantaneous view of what is occurring in simulations without any averaging that may occur when analyzing fields such as accumulated precipitation. The objective method is applied to high resolution 3 km and 1 km local convective WRF summertime forecasts in the Northern Plains region. The bulk verification statistics reveal that forecasts generate too many objects, over-forecast the areal coverage of convection, and over-intensify convection. No noteworthy increases in skill are found when increasing to 1 km resolution and instead lead to a significant over-forecasting of small cells. A sensitivity study is performed to investigate the forecast biases found by varying the cloud droplet concentration, microphysical scheme, and horizontal resolution on a case day containing weakly forced convection mostly below the freezing level. Changing the cloud droplet concentration has a strong impact on the number of object and area biases. Increasing droplet counts to observed values generates a forecast that more closely resembles the observations in terms of area and object counts, but leads not enough rain generation. Changing the microphysical scheme produces the most pronounced effects on object counts and intensity, which is attributed to differences in autoconversion formulations. Coarsening the resolution from 3 km to 9 km leads to a decrease in skill, showing that 3 km simulations are more effective at convective forecasts. Increasing the resolution to 1 km results in amplifying the object count bias, and is found to not be worth the additional computational expense. Advisors/Committee Members: Gretchen Mullendore.

▼ Faecal incontinence (FI) is a prevalent complaint in Western populations and causes significant disability. Impaired motor function of the anal canal is a common pathophysiological feature and assessment of sphincteric function with manometry is a routine part of symptom assessment. High-resolution anorectal manometry (HRAM) may provide a more detailed understanding of anorectal function, however its clinical utility has not been established. Aims The principal aims of this thesis were to: (1) Explore existing practices of anorectal manometry (2) Examine current evidence supporting the use of HRAM (3) Develop and validate a protocol for the performance of HRAM (4) Define normal values for traditional measures of sphincteric function using HRAM (5) Develop and validate novel measures of sphincteric function, and explore whether they improve diagnostic accuracy in patients with FI (6) Examine anorectal function over a prolonged period with HRAM to evaluate the phenomenon of anal sampling (referred to in this thesis as transient anal sphincter relaxations [TASRs]) Methods The following methods were used: (1) A worldwide survey of current practices of anorectal manometry (2) A systemic review of the literature (3) Prospective studies (both standard and prolonged) of anal function in healthy volunteers and patients with FI Results The practice of anorectal manometry is markedly variable internationally with no two centres surveyed employing the same methods. Within the 62 centres surveyed, there were 16 combinations of ways in which squeeze data were reported. A review of the literature demonstrated a growing evidence base for the use of HRAM however there is a paucity of data that confirm added benefits of HRAM over conventional manometry. A standardized protocol for HRAM was developed to allow the reporting of traditional measures of anorectal function. Novel measures derived from HRAM were developed which demonstrate increased sensitivity for the detection of impaired sphincteric control in patients with FI (sensitivity of traditional measure [conventional squeeze increment] 36% vs. 59% for the novel HRAM measure [5-second squeeze profile]). Transient anal sphincter relaxations (TASRs) were characterized using HRAM. In health, TASRs are often perceived by the individual as the urge to pass wind (39% of events) and their frequency increases following meal consumption. Conversely in FI, TASRs are a rare occurrence and are generally not perceived (only one patient (1/10 [10%]) with FI reported GI sensations associated with TASR events). Conclusions Anorectal manometry is in need of standardization. Novel measures derived from HRAM may improve diagnostic utility and further exploration of TASR characteristics might give insight into the pathophysiology of FI.

▼ High-Resolution Shock-Capturing (HRSC) schemes constitute the state of the art for computing accurate numerical approximations to the solution of many hyperbolic systems of conservation laws, especially in computational fluid dynamics. A drawback of these schemes is that most of them use the spectral decomposition of the Jacobian matrix of the system to compute the numerical approximations by local projections to characteristic fields. The numerical solutions obtained are often excellent in terms of resolution, but the computational effort needed may be too high for some problems, especially those for which the spectral information of the flux Jacobian matrix is not available or is quite difficult to obtain. In order to reduce the computational cost, we can use component-wise finite-difference WENO schemes, based on Shu-Osher's finite-difference schemes, which compute the numerical fluxes at each cell interface by upwind-biased reconstructions of split upwind fluxes, avoiding the use of the characteristic information, but, unfortunately, they tend to yield results that are too diffusive and oscillatory. In this work we develop some techniques to improve the accuracy of the numerical results obtained with finite-difference WENO schemes, but also the efficiency of those schemes. There are a lot of works that analyze the main parts of WENO schemes, as the definition of the weights, the smoothness indicators or the role of some parameters present in the definition of the weights in the loss of accuracy near discontinuities and extrema. We derive new weights for the WENO scheme and get some constraints on those parameters present in their definition to guarantee maximal order for sufficiently smooth solutions with an arbitrary number of vanishing derivatives. The other basic ingredient of WENO finite-difference schemes is the use of the upwinding when computing the numerical flux function. The sophisticated design of the numerical flux function, that incorporates upwinding through characteristic information that needs to be computed at each cell boundary in the computational domain, tends to be fairly expensive. To speed up computing times, we use component-wise schemes that avoid the use of characteristic information when computing the numerical fluxes. We introduce an alternative flux-splitting to the usual Lax-Friedrichs flux-splitting. The use of this flux-splitting leads to more accurate numerical solutions, especially near discontinuities, where the use of this flux-splitting reduces the dissipation of the numerical solutions. In the case of the numerical simulation of shallow water flows it has been studied that to accurately represent discontinuous behavior, known to occur due to the non-linear hyperbolic nature of the shallow water system, and, at the same time, numerically maintain stationary solutions it is necessary the use of well-balanced shock-capturing (WBSC) schemes. In this work we combine the block structured AMR technique with a well-balanced scheme to develop a combined… Advisors/Committee Members: Mulet Mestre, Pep (advisor).

▼ Image interpolation in the medical area is of vital importance as most 3D biomedical volume images are sampled where the distance between consecutive slices is significantly greater than the in-plane pixel size due to radiation dose or scanning time. Image interpolation creates a certain number of new slices between known slices in order to obtain an isotropic volume image. The results can be used for the higher quality of 2D and 3D visualization or reconstruction of human body structure. Semantic interpolation on the manifold has been proved to be very useful for smoothing the interpolation process. Nevertheless, all previous methods focused on low-resolution image interpolation, and most of which work poorly on high-resolution images. Besides, the medical field puts a high threshold for the quality of interpolations, as they need to be semantic and realistic enough, and resemble real data with only small errors permitted. Typically, people downsample the images into 322 and 642 for semantic interpolation, which does not meet the requirement for high-resolution in the medical field. Thus, we explore a novel way to generate semantically correct interpolations and maintain the resolution at the same time. Our method has been proved to generate realistic and high-resolution interpolations on the sizes of 5262 and 5122. Our main contribution is, first, we propose a novel network, High Resolution Interpolation Network (HRINet), aiming at producing semantically correct high-resolution CT image interpolations. Second, by combining the idea of ACAI and GANs, we propose a unique alternative supervision method by applying supervised and unsupervised training alternatively to raise the accuracy and fidelity of body structure in CT when interpolated while keeping high quality. Third, we introduce an extra Markovian discriminator as a texture or fine details regularizer to make our model generate results indistinguishable from real data. In addition, we explore other possibilities or tricks to further improve the performance of our model, including low-level feature maps mixing, and removing batch normalization layers within the autoencoder. Moreover, we compare the impacts of MSE based and perceptual based loss optimizing methods for high quality interpolation, and show the trade-off between the structural correctness and sharpness. The interpolation experiments show significant improvement on both sizes of 256 2 and 5122 images quantitatively and qualitatively. We find that interpolations produced by HRINet are sharper and more realistic compared with other existing methods such as AE and ACAI in terms of various metrics. As an application of high-resolution interpolation, we have done 2D volume projection and 3D volume reconstruction from axial view CT data and their interpolations. We show the great enhancement of applying HRINet for both in sharpness and fidelity. Specifically, for 2D volume projection, we explore orthogonal projection and weighted projection respectively so as to show the improved effectiveness for… Advisors/Committee Members: Lee, Wonsook (supervisor).

▼ Introduction: In Positron Emission Tomography (PET), the use of resolution modelling (RM) in iterative image reconstruction enables the modelling of aspects of detection which result in mispositioning of measured data and the subsequent blurring of reconstructed images. RM reconstruction can result in significant improvements in spatial resolution, voxel variance and count rate bias and could be a software alternative to detection hardware that is able to achieve higher resolution. Such hardware typically consists of small scintillation crystals, small bore diameters and depth of interaction discrimination, such as for the High Resolution Research Tomograph (HRRT, Siemens), which used a double crystal layer phoswich detector system. However, RM implementation comes with penalties such as slower rates of convergence, potentially higher region of interest variance and Gibbs artefacts. Methods: Assessment of the benefits and drawbacks of RM was done in the first part of this thesis together with the measurement and modelling of spatially varying resolution kernels for different scanner configurations and PET isotopes for the HRRT. It is also unclear as to whether high resolution scanning offers significant advantages over clinical PET-CT scanners for applications in the head. Through direct comparison to our HRRT, we explore whether there are significant advantages of high resolution scanning for an application in the head over clinical PET-CT. For this comparison our Biograph TruePoint TrueV (Siemens) optimised for whole body imaging was used and a novel clinical study using both scanners was set where we scanned Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) patients with vestibular schwannomas (VS) using [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and [18F]fluorothymidine (FLT). The clinical objective was to assess if uptake within VS of FLT and FDG could be measured and whether this uptake was predictive of tumour growth. Finally an assessment of the feasibility and impact of reducing the original injected activities in our clinical study was performed using bootstrapping resampling. Conclusions: RM provides greater but additive improvements in image resolution compared to DOI on the HRRT. Isotope specific image based RM could be estimated from published positron range distributions and measurements using fluorine-18. With the clinical project, uptake of FDG and FLT within the VS lesions was observed, these uptake values were correlated to each other, and high uptake was predictive of tumour growth with little differences in predictive power between FLT and FDG. Although there were benefits of the HRRT for imaging small lesions, in our clinical application there was little difference between the two scanners to discriminate lesion growth. Using the PET-CT scanner data and knowledge of lesion location, doses could be reduced to 5-10% without any significant loss of ability to discriminate lesion growth.

Cerca de 10% dos casos de câncer de mama e/ou ovário são caracterizados como hereditários, onde a presença de mutações germinativas no gene de suscetibilidade BRCA1 aumenta o risco de desenvolver esses cânceres durante a vida da mulher. O BRCA1 é um gene supressor tumoral envolvido na resposta de danos ao DNA, controle do ciclo celular, na remodelação da cromatina, ubiquitinação e regulação da transcrição. O presente estudo tem como objetivo central caracterizar as mutações do gene BRCA1 associadas a Síndrome Hereditária do Câncer de Mama e/ou Ovário (HBOC) em pacientes atendidos no Serviço de Aconselhamento Genético do Câncer do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto da Universidade de São Paulo (HCFMRP/USP). Os vinte e dois éxons codificantes do BRCA1 foram analisados utilizando o método de High Resolution Melting (HRM) para triagem de mutações pontuais, seguido pelo sequenciamento de DNA dos casos selecionados para validação. A técnica de MLPA (Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification) também foi usada para detectar grandes deleções e duplicações. Uma vez confirmada a mutação, membros da família considerados de alto risco, serão investigados para a mutação específica, a fim de proporcionar-lhes um aconselhamento genético apropriado para a detecção precoce do câncer. No presente estudo, foram investigados 41 pacientes que preencheram os critérios para o teste genético de acordo com NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology v.1.2010. Um total de 21 mutações foram identificadas, duas das quais são patogênicas: a deleção dos éxons 17-18 e a deleção dos éxon 19. Ambas estão localizadas no domínio BRCT do gene BRCA1, essencial para a ligação de fosfoproteínas críticas para a ativação do complexo de reparo do DNA. Outra mutação, a S616del, foi tratada como patogênica, mas apresenta informações controversas em diferentes estudos. O trabalho também identificou uma nova mutação, Val1117Ile. Um estudo de haplótipos das mutações identificadas nos pacientes foi realizado e revelou que um dos haplótipos, denominado de 6, contendo quatro resíduos mutados (871Leu, 1038Gly, 1183Arg e 1613Gly) estava presente em 50% das pacientes. O estudo de associação com 82 indivíduos saudáveis, mostrou diferença significativa (p=0,026) nos pacientes, sugerindo assim um risco aumentado de HBOC. Adicionalmente, foi analisada a mutação germinativa R337H no gene p53 para os casos suspeitos de Síndrome de Li-Fraumeni. Em síntese, o presente estudo contribui com a identificação de uma nova mutação não-sinônina no gene BRCA1 e sugere que o haplótipo 871Leu-1038Gly-1183Arg-1613Gly possa conferir risco aumentado do câncer de mama e/ou ovário em pacientes diagnosticados com HBOC.

▼ Marine productivity is limited by nitrogen in a large portion of the global ocean. Marine nitrogen fixation, catalyzed by a select group of microorganisms called diazotrophs, converts nitrogen gas (N2) into bioavailable nitrogen that can support the growth of marine phytoplankton. By supplying new nitrogen to marine ecosystems, marine N2 fixation affects marine primary production, the uptake of carbon dioxide and ultimately the global climate. However, the environmental controls on N2 fixation and the physiologies of diverse diazotrophs remain elusive, in great part due to the limited number of observations. As part of this dissertation, I applied a variety of approaches including statistical modeling, high-resolution field measurements, and gene sequencing to characterize the biogeography of marine diazotrophy. The first approach was to model marine N2 fixation and diazotrophs using machine learning methods. To that end, I conducted meta-analyses to update the global datasets of N2 fixation and diazotrophs. The number of observations in these updated datasets are ~80% and over 100% larger than previous datasets, respectively. Simple correlation analyses between N2 fixation rates and different environmental factors failed to identify a single factor explaining marine N2 fixation at a global scale. In contrast, individual diazotrophic phylotypes showed distinct relations to environmental properties. Machine learning methods including random forest (RF) and support vector regression (SVR) simulated the observed N2 fixation and diazotrophs fairly well by accounting for nonlinearities among multiple environmental factors. The estimated global N2 fixation fluxes from the two statistical models were within the range of other studies. However, the machine learning estimates and other simulations in some cases showed substantial disagreement in both the magnitude and distribution of N2 fixation and diazotrophs, especially in high latitudes and the eastern equatorial Pacific, where observations are scarce. The large uncertainties in simulated N2 fixation and diazotrophs emphasized the need for a better understanding of the factors regulating N2 fixation and the physiology of diazotrophs. Achieving this goal can be labor-intensive and difficult with current techniques, which are based on discrete sampling and long incubation time. To overcome some of the drawbacks of traditional methods, our laboratory developed a method for high-frequency underway N2 fixation measurements. This method provides better coverage of the spatial and temporal heterogeneity in N2 fixation. I deployed this method over large swaths of the western North Atlantic Ocean in the summers of 2015, 2016, and 2017, covering over 10,000 km cruise tracks. This extensive survey identified new hotspots of N2 fixation in the coastal waters of the mid-Atlantic Bight. By coupling high-resolution N2 fixation observations with underway estimates of net community production (NCP) derived from O2/Ar measurements, I revealed the heterogeneous contribution… Advisors/Committee Members: Cassar, Nicolas (advisor).

▼ Introduction: In Positron Emission Tomography (PET), the use of resolution modelling (RM) in iterative image reconstruction enables the modelling of aspects of detection which result in mispositioning of measured data and the subsequent blurring of reconstructed images. RM reconstruction can result in significant improvements in spatial resolution, voxel variance and count rate bias and could be a software alternative to detection hardware that is able to achieve higher resolution. Such hardware typically consists of small scintillation crystals, small bore diameters and depth of interaction discrimination, such as for the High Resolution Research Tomograph (HRRT, Siemens), which used a double crystal layer phoswich detector system. However, RM implementation comes with penalties such as slower rates of convergence, potentially higher region of interest variance and Gibbs artefacts. Methods: Assessment of the benefits and drawbacks of RM was done in the first part of this thesis together with the measurement and modelling of spatially varying resolution kernels for different scanner configurations and PET isotopes for the HRRT. It is also unclear as to whether high resolution scanning offers significant advantages over clinical PET-CT scanners for applications in the head. Through direct comparison to our HRRT, we explore whether there are significant advantages of high resolution scanning for an application in the head over clinical PET-CT. For this comparison our Biograph TruePoint TrueV (Siemens) optimised for whole body imaging was used and a novel clinical study using both scanners was set where we scanned Neurofibromatosis 2 (NF2) patients with vestibular schwannomas (VS) using [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and [18F]fluorothymidine (FLT). The clinical objective was to assess if uptake within VS of FLT and FDG could be measured and whether this uptake was predictive of tumour growth. Finally an assessment of the feasibility and impact of reducing the original injected activities in our clinical study was performed using bootstrapping resampling. Conclusions: RM provides greater but additive improvements in image resolution compared to DOI on the HRRT. Isotope specific image based RM could be estimated from published positron range distributions and measurements using fluorine-18. With the clinical project, uptake of FDG and FLT within the VS lesions was observed, these uptake values were correlated to each other, and high uptake was predictive of tumour growth with little differences in predictive power between FLT and FDG. Although there were benefits of the HRRT for imaging small lesions, in our clinical application there was little difference between the two scanners to discriminate lesion growth. Using the PET-CT scanner data and knowledge of lesion location, doses could be reduced to 5-10% without any significant loss of ability to discriminate lesion growth.
