Regeneration strategies of Triodia spp. in response to fire in the Kimberley, Western Australia
Creators: name: Armstrong, Graerne
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 2012

description: The processes which structure plant communities enabling species coexistence over time remains an area of active research. Current theory has, at its extremes, deterministic niche and stochastic neutral theory, however several recent explanations reconcile these extremes into stochastic niche theory. Central to this is the recognition that sympatric species have differential regeneration success after a disturbance over both time and space. To investigate this proposition I collected ecological and phenological data on eight sympatric Triodia spp., in the Kimberley of Western Australia, to determine and compare their regeneration responses to fire. Species distributions in the landscape were correlated to habitat variables to determine the degree of habitat specialisation. Regeneration responses to fire were determined through direct observation of natural and experimental fires and the historical coexistence of three species, from different regeneration functional groups, was determined using coalescence analysis. A spatially explicit model, parameterized with the life history matrices of these species, was used to investigate how they competed under a range of fire scales and probabilities. The study demonstrated that while the majority of Triodia spp. in this community are habitat generalists, differences in relative abundance across different substrates suggests other factors lead to differential competition between species. Strong inter-specific competition was also suggested by species forming mono-specific stands. The molecular analysis demonstrated that species from different functional groups have coexisted since the Pleistocene and the model demonstrated that this can only occur in a narrow range of fire probabilities. Considered together these results indicate that disturbance by fire facilitates the coexistence of these Triodia species. This is possible because each species differentially utilizes opportunities, after fire, arising in the regeneration niche space. Hence, stochastic niche theory best describes the processes operating in this community leading to the patterns observed across a range of spatial and temporal scales.

description: In this study, biosorption processes performed with and without ultrasound-assisted were presented for the first time comparatively. For this purpose, the potential for use of Ulva lactuca Linnaeus 1753 (U. lactuca) which is a macroalgae, as an alternative biosorbent was investigated for Hg(II) removal from aqueous solutions. Both conventional univariate and multivariate methods were evaluated to optimise biosorption processes. Biosorption equilibrium time was determined as 60 min for without ultrasound-assisted method, while it was only 3 min for ultrasound-assisted method. Biosorption processes were optimised by Central Composite Design (CCD) and successfully described by quadratic polynomial models as a function both of R (%) and qe (mg/g). In optimum conditions (Co = 125 mg/L, m = 30 mg, pH = 4.0 for ultrasound-assisted method and pH = 2.0 for without ultrasound-assisted method), removal efficiencies were achieved experimentally as 95.8% ± 0.2 and 96.1% ± 0.7 (N = 2), respectively. Models with high regression coefficients (R2(adj) > 95%) obtained from Response Surface Methodology (RSM) were found to be applicable to the estimation of biosorption data. Biosorption equilibrium data was defined by Langmuir model. Langmuir’s maximum sorption capacity was increased from 125.6 to 232.0 mg/g when ultrasound-assisted method was applied. According to the results of kinetics evaluation, both biosorption processes were thermodynamically possible, endothermic (ΔHº>0) and spontaneous reactions (ΔGº<0) controlled by chemisorption based on the pseudo-second-order kinetic models. Results showed that ultrasound-assistance to the biosorption process contributed positively to increasing the rate of reaction and allowing sorption to be completed in a shorter time by facilitating sorption mass transfer.

description: In this work, a novel Ni-doped ZnO nano-electrocatalyst was synthesised via depositing on fluorine-doped tin oxide glass (FTO) and utilised for the successful degradation of Ofloxacin (OFL). Firstly, the Ni and ZnO foils were sputtered using Radio-Frequency Sputtering power 100 watts and time 60 min. Furthermore, the effect of operating variables (i.e., initial pH, electrical current, initial concentration of OFL, and reaction time), was investigated on the degradation of OFL by the Photo-electrocatalytic process through UV-A irradiation. Results demonstrated the suitable degradation of OFL, about 100% in optimal conditions. The reaction came after the first-order kinetics model, with an average R2 of 0.96. Based on the results, single processes (photolysis and electrolysis) and photocatalytic processes have much lower efficiency for OFL removal in comparison with the Photo-electrocatalytic process. This decrease in the toxicity unit is evident in different reaction times. Based on the GC-MS analysis, eight possible degradation pathways intermediate of OFL can be proposed. Also, the stability test of the electrode indicated that after nine continually runs, only 1.4% efficiency of the process decreased.

description: A new genus of Oligo-Miocene kangaroo (Macropodiformes), Cookeroo, and two new species, Cookeroo bulwidarri and C. hortusensis, are described from the Riversleigh World Heritage Area, northern Australia. Species of Cookeroo are distinguished from other basal macropodids by possessing a unique combination of characters including an expanded masseteric canal confluent with the mandibular canal that extends to below m1, a sinuous i1 with enamel on the buccal surface only and with dorsal and ventral flanges present, a dentary with a marked inflection of the ventral border below m3, bilophodont molars, and an elongate third premolar. We assess the phylogenetic relationships of the genus using a combination of two previously published morphological matrices. Our analysis recovers Cookeroo species as early-branching members of a clade that also contains macropodines, sthenurines, and lagostrophines. http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:E32B7E60-80B0-4A0E-BBE2-E3CA66F41D2F SUPPLEMENTAL DATA—Supplemental materials are available for this article for free at www.tandfonline.com/UJVP.

description: Service discoverability during the learning stage of an Application Program Interface (API) has a great affect on the productivity of developers and is of great importance to businesses. The adoption of Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA) and Representational State Transfer (REST) Web services/APIs have increased in recent years, mainly because of its perceived ease of use in comparison to the industry standard for Web service: World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), also known as Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). But difficulty in assembly of service calls presents a usability problem. The difficulty is mainly due to lack of discovery mechanisms and poor documentation, which lead developers to resort to trail and error, that causes a decrease in productivity and increase in cost of service integration to businesses. In this research we study discovery of REST architectural style from a usability standpoint. We also present an approach for enhancing discoverability using the OPTIONS Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) method. And demonstrate the approach as well as our findings on best practices of REST APIs through the development of a hypermedia driven API prototype. The usability problems and the approach to enhance the discovery problems were validated by case study using Usability Evaluation Method (UEM)s.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Language skills and science concepts development through literacy-based science teaching
Creators: name: Awei, Pole
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 2004

description: This study is only a small contribution to the solution of what I think is a bigger problem area needing more investigations and remedies. The reality in PNG classroom situations is that, oracy and reading skills development for students is non-existent from high schools and secondary schools to higher levels of education. This is in line with curriculum statements, which do not provide for oracy or reading skills development at all levels from high school onwards. The most emphasized forms of language arts areas through which learning takes place are listening and writing. Essentially, having identified the problem, I set out to carry out the following related investigations. The initial aim of this study was to, through a given course in science, develop science students' reading, writing, listening, and oracy skills. At the end of study the goal was to test students to gauge whether this approach to teaching had increased students' understanding of science concepts, and whether this approach to teaching had increased science students' motivation to study science. However, given the time limit for data collection in the field, and for the reasons noted above, and other field constraints the aim of study was narrowed down to only two. Firstly, to seek to develop, through the 'Light and Geometrical Optics' course, science students' reading and writing skills. (See chapter 3.3.3 for details about this course, its origins and authorship). Secondly, to gauge whether this teaching approach promoted students' increased understanding of science concepts. In developed countries like Australia a study of this nature was conducted three to four decades ago, (e.g. Bourke et al, 1976). However, in PNG the need for this study has been realized only recently because of the current situation with English being the official language of education but not of the home or street. Reading and writing skills development materials within the course, 'Light and Geometrical Optics', developed to effect increased understanding of science concepts targeted the following specific skills development. a. Comprehending Words.b. Understanding Instructions.c. Comprehending Short Passages.d. Comprehending Long Passages.e. Indentifying Purpose.f. Comprehending Statements.g.

description: Aims Several commercial and open-source automated insulin dosing (AID) systems have recently been developed and are now used by an increasing number of people with diabetes (PwD). This systematic review explored the current status of real-world evidence on the latest available AID systems in helping to understand their safety and effectiveness. Methods A systematic review of real-world studies on the effect of commercial and open-source AID system use on clinical outcomes was conducted employing a devised protocol (PROSPERO ID 257354). Results Of 441 initially identified studies, 21 published 2018–2021 were included: 12 for Medtronic 670G; one for Tandem Control-IQ; one for Diabeloop DBLG1; two for AndroidAPS; one for OpenAPS; one for Loop; three comparing various types of AID systems. These studies found that several types of AID systems improve Time-in-Range and haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) with minimal concerns around severe hypoglycaemia. These improvements were observed in open-source and commercially developed AID systems alike. Conclusions Commercially developed and open-source AID systems represent effective and safe treatment options for PwD of several age groups and genders. Alongside evidence from randomized clinical trials, real-world studies on AID systems and their effects on glycaemic outcomes are a helpful method for evaluating their safety and effectiveness.

description: Aminoacyl tRNA synthetases are enzymes that specifically attach amino acids to cognate tRNAs for use in the ribosomal stage of translation. For many aminoacyl tRNA synthetases, the required level of amino acid specificity is achieved either by specific hydrolysis of misactivated aminoacyl-adenylate intermediate (pre-transfer editing) or by hydrolysis of the mischarged aminoacyl-tRNA (post-transfer editing). To investigate the mechanism of post-transfer editing of alanine by prolyl-tRNA synthetase from the pathogenic bacteria Enterococcus faecalis, we used molecular modeling, molecular dynamic simulations, quantum mechanical (QM) calculations, site-directed mutagenesis of the enzyme, and tRNA modification. The results support a new tRNA-assisted mechanism of hydrolysis of misacylated Ala-tRNAPro. The most important functional element of this catalytic mechanism is the 2′-OH group of the terminal adenosine 76 of Ala-tRNAPro, which forms an intramolecular hydrogen bond with the carbonyl group of the alanine residue, strongly facilitating hydrolysis. Hydrolysis was shown by QM methods to proceed via a general acid-base catalysis mechanism involving two functionally distinct water molecules. The transition state of the reaction was identified. Amino acid residues of the editing active site participate in the coordination of substrate and both attacking and assisting water molecules, performing the proton transfer to the 3′-O atom of A76.

description: Machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) are becoming dominant problem-solving techniques in many areas of research and industry, not least because of the recent successes of deep learning (DL). However, the equation AI=ML=DL, as recently suggested in the news, blogs, and media, falls too short. These fields share the same fundamental hypotheses: computation is a useful way to model intelligent behavior in machines. What kind of computation and how to program it? This is not the right question. Computation neither rules out search, logical, and probabilistic techniques, nor (deep) (un)supervised and reinforcement learning methods, among others, as computational models do include all of them. They complement each other, and the next breakthrough lies not only in pushing each of them but also in combining them.

description: The recent events in the Persian Gulf have again heightened the realization that the United States is still as energy dependent on Mideast supplies of oil as it was eighteen years ago when the Arabs imposed their first oil embargo. Petroleum dependency is a problem of the transportation sector. Since 1958 petroleum has supplied between 95.4 percent and 97.3 percent of all transportation energy in the U.S. However, oil production in the U.S. has continued to outstrip additions to petroleum reserves for every year since 1970. Not only is domestic production of oil expected to continue to decline, but petroleum imports could account for 50 to 60 percent of total oil consumption in the U.S. by the end of this decade. The abundant resources/reserves of natural gas found within the borders of the U.S. can provide the answer for solving two of America's most pressing problems; energy dependence and a continual degradation of urban air quality. The natural gas vehicle (NGV) is an engine that can run on compressed natural gas. It has been around for more than one hundred years and within the past decade, the technology, efficiency and performance of the NGV have dramatically improved. Although a NGV gets about the same miles per equivalent gallon of gasoline as a conventional gasoline or diesel engine, the exhaust emissions from the NGV are far more environmentally benign. In fact, an increased use of natural gas vehicles could significantly reduce exhaust pollutants and help clean up the air of many urban areas. The natural gas vehicle is an idea whose time has come

description: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of leaves extract of Schizocalyx cuspidatus (A. St.-Hil.) Kainul. & B. Bremer on hepatic morphofunctional dysfunction induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4). Liver lesions were induced via intraperitoneal administration of CCl4 every 48 h for 12 days. Forty-nine rats were randomised into seven groups: G1: CCl4; G2: CCl4 (animals euthanised 24 h after last CCl4 application); G3: CCl4 + DMSO; G4: SCE 400 mg/kg; G5: DMSO (700 μl); G6: CCl4 + SCE 200 mg/kg and G7: CCl4 + SCE 400 mg/kg. SCE administration resulted in reduction in hydroperoxide levels, lipidic droplets and necrosis compared to G1, G2 and G3. There was an increase in the amount of collagen fibres in G1, G2 and G3 compared to the groups. These results show that the extract of SCE leaves has great potential for the recovery of liver damage after the application of CCl4.

description: Dicho trabajo plantea algunas medidas de gestión ambiental que podrían ser herramientas viables para enfrentar a las enfermedades emergentes, dentro de las cuales se encuentra la COVID-19. En dicho marco se plantea impulsar las medidas de gestión ambiental que impidan la destrucción de hábitats naturales, el tráfico de fauna y la pérdida de diversidad genética; toda vez que el Perú es un país megadiverso, por lo que custodia ecosistemas con una gran biodiversidad que, a su vez, proporciona el servicio ecosistémico de regulación de enfermedades. De igual manera se expone la necesidad de impulsar la gestión de residuos sólidos, con énfasis en establecer disposiciones que indiquen a la ciudadanía en general el modo en que los residuos de hogares con pacientes infectados deben ser gestionados, a fin de evitar poner en riesgo de contagio a las personas que entren en contacto con ellos, como es el caso del personal municipal o de las personas del hogar. Asimismo, considera que la economía circular resulta ser un modelo económico adecuado para impulsar la economía frente a la recesión causada por el COVID-19, toda vez que impulsa la economía local, la sostenibilidad y reduce la dependencia de materias primas vírgenes.

description: Shirazolide is an elemanolide isolated from Jurinea leptoloba DC. The aim of this study was to determine the cytotoxic, mutagenic and anti-mutagenic properties of shirazolide from J. leptoloba DC in vitro. Cytotoxicity was measured using a modified MTT (3-(4,5-di methyl thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-di phenyltetrazolium bromide) assay on normal human lymphocytes and tumor HeLa cells, showing that the cytotoxicity of shirazolide is much higher for HeLa cells than for normal lymphocytes. Mutagenic and anti-mutagenic activities of shirazolide were evaluated using the Salmonella typhimurium tester strains TA98 and TA100 showing anti-mutagenic properties against the former strain under metabolic activation.

description: While recent advances in approaches for control of humanoid robot systems show promising results, consideration of fully integrated humanoid systems for solving complex tasks, such as disaster response, has only recently gained focus. In this paper, a software framework for humanoid disaster response robots is introduced. It provides newcomers as well as experienced researchers in humanoid robotics a comprehensive system comprising open source packages for locomotion, manipulation, perception, world modeling, behavior control, and operator interaction. The system uses the Robot Operating System (ROS) as a middleware, which has emerged as a de facto standard in robotics research in recent years. The described architecture and components allow for flexible interaction between operator(s) and robot from teleoperation to remotely supervised autonomous operation while considering bandwidth constraints. The components are self-contained and can be used either in combination with others or standalone. They have been developed and evaluated during participation in the DARPA Robotics Challenge, and their use for different tasks and parts of this competition are described.
