Hance_WestForkSmithRiver_flasher_location_data

This entry contains two files.  The first file, "Hance_WFSR Flasher locations.xlxs", contains information describing the location of installed landmark 'flashers' consisting of 2" square aluminum metal tags.  Each tag was inscribed with a number to aid field personnel in the identification of landmark location within the West Fork Smith River watershed in southern coastal Oregon. These landmarks were used to calculate stream distances between points in the watershed, including distances between tagging locations and detection events for tagged fish. 

A second file, named "Hance_fish_detection_data1.xlxs" contains information on the detection of tagged fish within the West Fork Smith River stream network.  The file includes both the location where the fish were tagged and where they were subsequently detected.  Together with the information in the WFSR flasher location dataset, these data allow estimation of the minimum distances and directions moved by juvenile coho salmon during the fall transition period.

A map locator is provided in Figure 1 in the accompanying manuscript: Dalton J. Hance, Lisa M. Ganio, Kelly M. Burnett & Joseph L.

Effect of exposure to wastewater treatment plant effluent on fathead minnow reproduction

Adult fathead minnows were exposed to dilutions of a historically estrogenic wastewater treatment plant effluent in a 21-d reproduction study. This dataset is comprised of a variety of endpoints representing key events along adverse outcome pathways linking estrogen receptor activation and other molecular initiating events to reproductive impairment. This study demonstrates the value of using an integrative approach that encompasses analytical chemistry, in vitro bioassays, and in vivo apical and pathway-based approaches with endpoints spanning from molecular- (e.g., gene expression) to organismal- (e.g., reproduction) levels of biological organization to help infer causal relationships between chemistry and potential effects on reproduction.

Larval fathead minnow swim bladder inflation following exposure to 2-mercaptobenzothiazole

In this study, a hypothesized adverse outcome pathway (AOP) linking inhibition of thyroid peroxidase (TPO) activity to impaired swim bladder inflation was investigated in experiments in which fathead minnows were exposed to the TPO inhibitor 2-mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT). Results show that anterior, but not posterior, swim bladder inflation was impacted by exposure to MBT supporting the development of an AOP linking a specific thyroid-disrupting molecular initiating event to a significant phenotypic outcome. Results also suggest an alternative short-term in vivo test with larval fathead minnows that could be used to screen chemicals for thyroid disrupting activity and possibly distinguish thyroid disrupting modes of action. The dataset contains information on TPO expression, thyroid hormone concentrations, and swim bladder inflation measurements in larval fathead minnows.

Columbia University Puerto Rico Study.

Lifetime childhood asthma prevalence (LCAP) percentages in Puerto Rico Health
Regions (HR) are substantially higher in northeastern vs. southwestern HR. Higher
average relative humidity in the northeast might promote mold and mite exposures
and possibly asthma prevalence. To test this hypothesis, mold contamination, Environmental
Relative Moldiness Index (ERMI) values were measured in floor dust
(n = 26) and dust mite allergen concentrations in bed dust (n = 14). For this analysis,
the eight HR were divided into those with LCAP > 30% (n = 3) and < 30% (n = 5).
The average ERMI value was significantly greater (Wilcoxon Rank Sum, p < 0.001)
in high than in low LCAP HR (14.5 vs. 9.3). The dust mite antigens Der p 1, Der f
1, and Blo t 5 were detected in 90% of bed samples, but the concentrations were
not significantly different in high vs. low LCAP HR. Mold exposures might partially
explain the differences in LCAP HR in Puerto Rico. This dataset is not publicly accessible because: This was a study conducted by Columbia University researchers. It can be accessed through the following means: Contact:
