## Temporal and Spatial Trends in Zooplankton Communities along a Potential Eutrophic Gradient in a Subtropical Lagoon.

## Abstract

- 	The estuarine waters of Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (MINWR) are currently managed as a no-take fisheries reserve (NTR) and have historically demonstrated higher adult fish density and biomass compared to adjacent fished areas.  In an ongoing study, however, this same area has shown dramatically lower densities of larval fishes. It was suspected that higher anthropogenic nutrient loading outside the NTR may locally stimulate zooplankton production and increase larval fish survival here by minimizing starvation.  This scenario was examined by quantifying the density of four common zooplankton taxa between reserve and non-reserve areas on two separate dates in May and July 2003.  Our results suggest that the abundance of most zooplankton taxa were higher in July and while the highest densities of important species such as copepods were seen in eutrophic regions of MINWR (up to 20814/m3), reserve areas often showed an increase in densities as well.  These initial results suggest that while food resources may be higher outside reserve, the differences may not be of a magnitude to alone cause the spatial disparity observed in larval fish abundance.

## Sampling Regions

- Zooplankton sampling regions included four sub-basins within the 52 km stretch of the Banana River Lagoon located between Merritt Island and Cape Canaveral, Florida (Figure 1). The Upper Banana River (UBR) north of  S.R. 405 causeway is a no-take fisheries reserve and public access has been prohibited since 1962.  The Middle Banana River (MBR) between S.R. 405 and S.R. 528 has been designated a no-motor zone (NMZ) since 1990.  The Lower Banana River (LBR), south of S.R. 528 has no access restrictions and is subject to greater anthropogenic pressure, primarily due to high residential development.  Samples were also collected  from  Southern Mosquito Lagoon (SML), 8 km north of the Banana River.

## Copepod Density

- Figure 1.  There were significantly higher densities of copepod during the July sampling trip versus the May sampling trip.  The densities were higher in the UBR and the LBR for both May and July.  The highest densities were in the LBR in July.

## Grid Reliability -- Needs of Nuclear Power Plants

**Joe McClelland, Director**
**Division of Reliability**
**Joint NRC/FERC Meeting**
**April 24, 2006**

## Nuclear Power Plant Requirements

**To ensure safety, the nuclear plant operator must know the status of the offsite power supply.**
**Contingencies on the Bulk Power System can affect the reliability of the offsite power supply.**

## Nuclear Power Plant Requirements (Cont.)

**Transmission Operators and Reliability Coordinators know the status of facilities that can affect offsite power.**
**The Commission permits the communication of operational parameters needed to maintain safety (Discussed under Part II – Interpretive Order).**

## Resulting Issues of Nuclear Power Plants

**Are transmission operators aware of the requirements of the nuclear plants?**
**Are the voltage requirements of the nuclear power plants compatible with the reliability standards?**
**Are special procedures and reliability standards necessary to meet the nuclear power plants’ safety requirements?**

## Resulting Issues of Nuclear Plants (Cont.)

**Due to their specifications concerning offsite power, nuclear power plants are susceptible to voltage variations and frequency swings.**
**Due to their generation size, the loss of nuclear power plants is usually the largest single contingency faced by the transmission operator.**

## ERO Proceeding

**Industry is developing a new standard on Nuclear Plant Off-site Power Coordination.**
**The standard covers coordination between the nuclear plant and transmission system.**
**NRC can work directly with industry to ensure standards meet their needs.**

## Reliability Standards - Nuclear Plant Needs

**A cooperative effort with the NRC and the Commission is important.**
**The NRC can most effectively engage the ERO directly through the standards process.**
**Entities should be aware of, plan to, and operate to the needs of nuclear plants.**
**This cannot be done alone; the NRC, FERC, ERO, and industry must work together.**

## Addressing Co-Occurring Conditions: A Provider’s Perspective

- Joan E. Zweben, Ph.D.
**Executive Director: 14****th**** Street Clinic & EBCRP**
**Clinical Professor of Psychiatry; University of California, San Francisco**

## A Chance to Provide Comprehensive Care

- OTI/CSAT permitted and funded comprehensive services in 1990’s
- Psychiatric services to clients
- Training mental health programs in AOD
- Training addiction programs in mental health
- Integrate treatment of COD; psychotropic meds and methadone are included
- Limited primary care services; prevent deterioration to more costly ailments
- Moms and kids residential

## Comprehensive Care (2)

- Provide licensed child care
- Begin to address HCV (1995) with encouragement from CSAT project officer
- Methamphetamine Treatment Project: strengthen commitment to evidence-based practices
- Developing and providing a universal wraparound case management model.Developing an integrated "therapeutic jurisprudence" model with a leading Drug Court.

## Obstacle

- Providers are expected to collaborate to provide care, but government entities frequently do not communicate about common issues.  This leads to conflicting expectations and requirements.

##  Remedy: Policy Statements

- Need for joint, interagency policy statement confirming commitment to, and expectations for, treatment for persons with COD
- Statement should clearly identify the impropriety of excluding persons with COD from either treatment system or other service systems

## Licensing & Certification

- Naïve expectation that professional credentials include proficiency in addressing substance abuse
- No framework for specialized licensing and site certification
- Overlapping and conflicting requirements between health services, mental health, alcohol/other drug, social services, criminal justice system, etc.

## Licensing & Certification

- Need comprehensive framework for program licensing and site certification, or
- Specify programs that are exempt from existing requirements
- Remove regulatory barriers that discourage providers from serving this population
- Create incentives through adequate reimbursement

## Need for a Universal Chart

- Funding sources require different elements in the clinical chart, and have different audit protocols
- Need for a universal chart to reduce extra work, save many trees, and allow consistent data collection.

## Training

- Need mechanism to cross-train professionals and continuously develop skill base of non-credentialed workers
- Need to align all elements of the system to promote mastery of content defined as important: intake process, treatment plan, staff evaluations, etc.
- Need for regular clinical supervision

## Ultrafast-laser patterning of glass for 3-D optical circuits

**Denise Krol, University of California, Davis, DMR 0307002**

**Ultrashort-pulse lasers with pulse durations on the order of 100 fs can be used to directly write photonic structures inside a glass. This technique has great potential as a fabrication method for three-dimensional all-optical integrated components. **
**Active devices -such as waveguide lasers or amplifiers- can be fabricated in rare-earth doped phosphate glass. In these materials the quality of the devices depends critically on laser pulse energy and repetition rate. Both the morphology as well as the loss of the fabricated waveguides vary substantially for laser repetition rates between 250 kHz and 2.2 MHz and pulse energies between  80 and 320 nJ.. The lowest loss waveguides (< 1 dB/cm) are obtained for pulse energies > 320 nJ with rep rates < 885 KHz. **

- Waveguides can be fabricated by moving the glass sample relative to the focal region of the ultrafast laser beam.

- Microscope images of the cross-sections of waveguides in Er-Yb doped phosphate glass. The waveguides were fabricated using a laser with pulse energy of 240 nJ, a pulse duration of 400 fs and  a scan speed of 50 m/s and varying repetition rates as indicated. The figure shows that the size and refractive index profile of the waveguides increases dramatically with increasing laser repetition rate.

**ultrashort-pulse laser**

**translation of sample**

**The results also show that there are two laser modification regimes, characterized by different physical mechanisms. This information is of importance for further development of this technology for applications in optical data storage, information technology as well as bio-sensing and -imaging. **

## ORNL’s FutureNet Infrastructure

- W. R. Wing
**Computer Science Research Group****Computer Science and Mathematics Division**

## History and context

**In 2003 ORNL had a problem–poor connectivity:**
**ESnet connection only OC-12.**
**Qwest commercial OC-192 was costing $400,000/year.**
**Three simultaneous network research awards:**
**UltraScience Net (DOE circuit-switched research net),**
**CHEETAH (NSF circuit-switched research),**
**ETF (NSF extension of TeraGrid).**
**Pooled funds to build capacity rather than lease it.**

## Bought options for 20-year IRU’son Tennessee Valley Authority fiber

## Bought a 20-year IRU with Qwest

## Initially lit Atlanta-Chicago and Nashville-Oak Ridge

## Arranged an asset trade with National LambdaRail for membership rights

## Infrastructure–Not a network

**On it, we’ve built and added to three research networks and DOE’s operational network, ESnet:**
**DOE’s UltraScience Net (circuit switching with secure control and robust reservations),**
**NSF’s CHEETAH and Internet2’s HOPI (which will help study inter-domain issues),**
**ORNL’s connection to TeraGrid.**
**Options to connect to EVERYTHING worth connecting to.**

## UltraScience Net: Fully-meshed, circuit- switched, dedicated-wave, research

## CHEETAH: MPLS/GMPLS-based research

- NSF-CHEETAH

- DOE-USN

## But of course, the real goal has been connectivity

- Internet2

- National Lambda Rail

- FutureNet

## So, how are we really doing it?

**DWDM transport gear from Ciena**
**Latest (3rd Gen) /w 25 Ghz lambda spacing**
**C-band tunable transponders**
**CoreDirector switches for lambda and sub-lambda switching**
**Supports GFP-mapping, LCAS, VCAT**

## But the project isn’t finished

**Lighting TVA  fiber to Memphis, TN, and Starkville, MS**
**Pick up University of Memphis and Mississippi State**

## Subplot Information

- National Manual Version 1.56

- Section 4.0

## New Level of Information

- Data that describe each individual subplot
- Most items are not new
- Recorded on each subplot instead of by condition

- New Item:
- Invasive Exotic Pest Plants
- Species
- Coverage

## Subplot Number

- Center subplot
- North subplot
- Southeast subplot
- Southwest subplot

## Subplot Center Condition

- Record the Condition Number at each subplot center

- Center of subplot one is always condition number 1

## New ItemMicroplot Center Condition

## New ItemSubplot Condition List

- Record the Condition Number of each condition on the subplot

- Four-digit code: Maximum of four conditions on any subplot
- Subplot Condition List = any combination of 1240

## Subplot Slope and AspectChanged

- Record the slope and aspect of the subplot, not each condition
- Only recorded on subplots that have at least one accessible forest condition

## New ItemSnow/Water Depth

- Record depth of snow or water on the subplot
- Record the decimal point (tenths of feet)
- Used to indicate subplots where some variables may be measured with less certainty (i.e. seedling count)

## New ItemInvasive Exotic Pest Plants

- Record up to four exotic species on the accessible forest land portion of each subplot

- If there are less than four species on a subplot, can record presence of exotics off, but near, the subplot
- If you happen to see it while completing other work around subplot (tree lengths, etc.)
- But do not do an exhaustive search off the subplot

## New ItemInvasive Exotic Pest Plant Percent Coverage

- Record percent coverage of the subplot
- Trace < 1%
- 1-10%
- 11-50%
- >50%
- Exotic plant is found in the forest around, but not on the subplot

## One Percent Coverage

- One percent cover of the subplot is equivalent to:
-    4.2 ft x 4.2 ft square
-    2.4 ft radius circle

- Only count the exotic plants on the accessible forest land conditions on the subplot.  But always use the entire subplot area as the denominator.

## Ten Percent Coverage

- Only count the exotic plants on the accessible forest land conditions on the subplot.  But always use the entire subplot area as the denominator.

- Ten percent cover of the subplot is equivalent to:
-    13.4 ft x 13.4 ft square
-    7.6 ft radius circle

## Software Package Overview

**Three Main Components:**
**Transfer (Copy) Component (WHFSTran)**
**Standardization Component ****(SNOOPY/UPDATEDB)**
**Consistency Check and Standardization Check Component (in production – dependent on CR project )**

## Database Transfer Program (WHFSTran)

**Preliminary version in almost every SR office with WHFS**
**Shell program**
**Runs twice weekly on cron**

## Database Transfer Program (WHFSTran - continued)

**Unloads database tables & schema**
**NOTE:****  ONLY Parametric data ****(no met. or hydro data tables)**** transferred**
**Makes output files smaller**

## Database Transfer Program (WHFSTran - continued)

**Transfers ****(tarred and compressed) ****files to central server ****(SRH)**
**Small file size increases program efficiency**
**SRH server:**
**allows full access **
**avoids firewall, password, permissions**

## Automated Database Standardization Package

**UPDATEDB**** – Batch scripts to update selected table entries ****(automatic);**
**SNOOPY**** - a GUI used to make changes ****(interactive);**
**Final design recently set;**
**Input from every region during the development and testing phase;**
**National Headquarters also involved**
** ****Goal:  Build consensus and “nationalize” the code.**

## Consistency and Standardization Check Program

**Under development**
**Most likely a “C” program**
**Logic: Patrick Sneeringer**
**Code: James Paul**
**Designed to be run at RFC and backup WFO**

## Consistency and Standardization Check Program (continued)

**Automatically downloads files ****(created by WHFSTran) ****from selected WFOs**
**Creates version of WFO database in INFORMIX at RFC ****(or backup WFO)**

## Consistency and Standardization  Check Program (continued)

**GUI-based program then checks each table**
**Looks for differences in databases**
**Changes approved by user**
**May be automated (WFO level)**

## Consistency and Standardization Check Program (continued)

**Discrepancies stored in new database tables**
**Known discrepancies can be skipped with next pass**
**Considerable user freedom to make changes ****(or not)**

## In Summary...

**Standardization and transfer functions almost complete**
**Consistency check function expected Spring 2003**
