    ABSTRACT BERGESON, CHASE BENDER. Where Can the Water Go? A Characterization of Urban Infiltration Capacities Through Measurement, Modeling, and Community Observation (Under the direction of Dr. Katherine Martin). Increasingly urbanized watersheds are creating new challenges for stormwater management, as some relevant aspects of urban hydrology and their perceived impacts by communities are not well understood. Infiltration models commonly used in rainfall-runoff predictions are often based on relatively undisturbed soils; however, highly disturbed and compacted urban soils may function almost as impervious surfaces, with very low infiltration rates. When soils become highly altered, soil maps and land cover data alone may not be sufficient to estimate infiltration rates across an urban watershed. As a result, models may frequently do a poor job estimating runoff volumes in urban areas. Additionally, urbanites may perceive issues of stormwater flow within a watershed that differ spatially from those predicted by models. Our research addresses these gaps in understanding using a sociohydrological approach that will help prioritize stormwater management within an urban watershed. In this study, we tested three common infiltration models, by comparing modeled infiltration rates to infiltration rates measured at 89 locations around the Walnut Creek watershed in Raleigh, NC. Based on these measurements we assessed which factors: land use, ground cover, time since development, and soil texture had the greatest impact on soil infiltration. We also asked residents of the watershed about where and how they experience flooding and about the practices that they use to maintain their own properties. Collected data was used to assess how social and hydrological data could be used jointly to improve our knowledge about urban hydrology.

  • Marketing of Professional Women's Soccer in the United States
    MARKETING OF PROFESSIONAL WOMEN’S SOCCER IN THE UNITED STATES THROUGH FEMINIST THEORIES by CHRISTOPHER HENDERSON (Under the Direction of James J. Zhang) ABSTRACT Despite the success of the United States Women’s National Team (USWNT), two women’s soccer leagues have quickly failed in the U.S. This doctoral dissertation examines the past and present of the marketing of professional women’s soccer in the United States emphasizing feminist themes to fulfill three objectives: (a) to critically examine the history of the marketing of women’s soccer in the United States to identify and gain a better comprehension of changes in theory and practice of marketing in women’s soccer in the U.S. over time; (b) to identify and explain the use of three feminist themes in the marketing of women’s soccer, specifically in the NWSL; and (c) to analyze the impact of these three feminist themes on the related marketing strategies used within in the NWSL in an effort to build a framework while also developing recommendations for marketing practitioners for the promotion and marketing of professional women’s soccer in the United States. The historical analysis segment revealed that the failure of the first two professional women’s soccer leagues in the United States were largely a result of poor resource allocation and an inability to connect with and retain fans, the media, and sponsors. The Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA) burned through capital at an unsustainable rate and was unable to maintain the excitement of the 1999 Women’s World Cup, leading to microscopic television ratings and perennially falling attendance.
