Title: Diet and Temporal Partitioning Facilitates Coexistence Between Two Octopus Species in a Shallow Coastal Habitat.
Creator: Bartz, Danielle, Bennice, Chelsea, Brooks, W. Randy, Office of Undergraduate Research and Inquiry
Abstract/Description: Niche partitioning mechanisms may be used by closely related, sympatric species to reduce competition. We examine two dimensions of niche partitioning (diet and temporal) amongst the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) and the Atlantic longarm octopus (Macrotritopus defilippi), which spatially overlap in a South Florida intracoastal habitat. SCUBA is used to collect octopus prey remains and gather supplemental feeding images to determine diets of each species. A 24h octopus monitoring camera...
Show moreNiche partitioning mechanisms may be used by closely related, sympatric species to reduce competition. We examine two dimensions of niche partitioning (diet and temporal) amongst the common octopus (Octopus vulgaris) and the Atlantic longarm octopus (Macrotritopus defilippi), which spatially overlap in a South Florida intracoastal habitat. SCUBA is used to collect octopus prey remains and gather supplemental feeding images to determine diets of each species. A 24h octopus monitoring camera records foraging activity times for each species. The common octopus consumes bivalves (49%), gastropods (32%) and crustaceans (19%), and forages at dawn, dusk, and nocturnal hours. The Atlantic longarm octopus consumes crustaceans (89%) and bivalves (11%), and forages during diurnal hours. Results suggest there is diet overlap between species and octopuses use temporal partitioning. This study provides additional findings to cephalopod niche partitioning literature, novel information on the ecology of the Atlantic longarm octopus, and conservation requirements for sand-dwelling species.

Title: SECONDARY DATA ANALYSIS ON AMERICAN PUBLIC OPINION AND IMMIGRATION POLICIES OF THE UNITED STATES IN 2016.
Creator: Lopez Pelaez, Kevin
Abstract/Description: Immigration policies in the United States remain a paramount topic in shaping the nation’s sociopolitical culture in the status quo; nuances in public sentiment pertaining to both immigration and are imperative in recognizing the broader implications of this issue. To gauge public sentiment on this and associated issues, a poll was conducted titled Taking America’s Pulse 2016 Class Survey.

Show moreImmigration policies in the United States remain a paramount topic in shaping the nation’s sociopolitical culture in the status quo; nuances in public sentiment pertaining to both immigration and are imperative in recognizing the broader implications of this issue. To gauge public sentiment on this and associated issues, a poll was conducted titled Taking America’s Pulse 2016 Class Survey. The Survey organization was the German data and analytics firm, Growth from Knowledge (GfK) Group, and was sponsored by Cornell University faculty members, Peter K. Enns, Ph.D., Professor of Government, and Jonathon Schuldt, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Communication. This research will examine two (2) questions from the referenced 2016 poll, Question I, “Do you think the number of immigrants admitted into the US is too high, too low, or about the right amount?” and Question II, “Would you support or oppose a proposal to increase penalties for undocumented immigrants who overstay their visa in the US?”. This secondary data analysis further studies the aforementioned questions by examining respondents’ political party affiliation.

Title: POLICY EVALUATION: THE EMERGENCY ECONOMIC STABILIZATION ACT OF 2008.
Creator: Lopez Pelaez, Kevin
Abstract/Description: The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (EESA) of 2008, often referred to as the “bank bailout of 2008”, was an act of Congress that created a billion-dollar Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to purchase distressed assets during the Financial Crisis. The EESA was one of the “bailout measures” taken by congress to help repair the economic damage of 2007-08. Although the EESA is a fiduciary-centered act of congress, its long-term implications affected everyday Americans through its policy...
Show moreThe Emergency Economic Stabilization Act (EESA) of 2008, often referred to as the “bank bailout of 2008”, was an act of Congress that created a billion-dollar Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) to purchase distressed assets during the Financial Crisis. The EESA was one of the “bailout measures” taken by congress to help repair the economic damage of 2007-08. Although the EESA is a fiduciary-centered act of congress, its long-term implications affected everyday Americans through its policy impacts. One central question in this policy evaluation is to analyze whether the EESA bailout unjustly assisted prominent banks and broker-dealers or whether the EESA was essential to ensure the prevention of the U.S. financial system from collapsing. Because the Financial Crisis of 2007-08 had such a broad impact, especially since many distressed assets were within the residential market [of average Americans], analyzing this Act through research and policy evaluation is especially fitting. This Policy Evaluation explores public policy in emergency circumstances, implications outside the financial sector for the public, and the overall synthesis between major financial markets and institutions and the American general public.
