(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Atmospheric particulate matter (or "aerosol") is known to have important implications for climate change, air quality, and human health. Our ability to predict its formation and fate is hindered by uncertainties associated ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Arid regions are characterized by high variability in the arrival of rainfall, and species found in these areas have adapted mechanisms to ensure the capture of this scarce resource. In particular, the rooting strategies ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)Collagen is a crucial structural protein, formed through a hierarchical assembly of molecules, arranged in collagen fibrils, which constitutes the basis for larger-scale fibers. Normal type I collagen is a heterotrimer ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2000)The climate of West Africa exhibits significant variability at the time scale of decades. The persistent drought of the past three decades is an example of such variability. This study investigates the role of vegetation ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)Wireless ad hoc networks are used in several applications ranging from infrastructure monitoring to providing Internet connectivity to remote locations. A common assumption about these networks is that the devices that ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change acknowledged that the lack of relevant observations in various regions of the world is a crucial gap in understanding and modeling impacts of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)This research develops a systematic approach to analyze the computational performance of Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) models and provides solution techniques to improve their scalability for on-line applications for ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The explosive growth in Internet-powered services has fueled the quest for finding new killer Internet-based applications. This quest has often led to applications based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), especially ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The fresh and saline groundwater flowing from coastal aquifers into the ocean comprise submarine groundwater discharge (SGD). This outflow is an important pathway for the transport of nutrients and contaminants, and has ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)This thesis explores the subterranean domain of chemical cycling in coastal oceans abutting permeable aquifers, where transport through sediments is dominated by advection, rather than diffusion. We investigate the mechanisms ...
