The genomic basis of adaptation and vulnerability to climate change in the American pika (Ochotona princeps)
Creators: name: Schmidt, Danielle Aimery
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Understanding the role of adaptation in species responses to climate change is important for estimating adaptive potential and informing conservation efforts. Population genomics enables estimates of population structure and connectivity, but also provides insights into the influence of historical climate fluctuations on species distributions. Further, these data allow identification of putatively adaptive genomic variation, which can be used to evaluate species’ adaptive potential. This is especially useful for organisms where direct tests for selection through common gardens or reciprocal transplant experiments are unfeasible. The American pika (Ochotona princeps) is a primarily high-elevation lagomorph distributed across western North America that has persisted across much of its current distribution through multiple glacial periods and is considered a sentinel species for the ecological effects of climate change. Here, I perform a multi-scaled investigation of the phylogenetic history of the American pika, as well as the genetic basis for adaptation and the genomic vulnerability of this species in response to changing environments. I generated restriction site-associated DNA sequencing (RADseq) data from samples collected across the entire range of American pikas, spanning latitudinal and elevational gradients at multiple spatial scales. Relative to previous molecular analyses of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), phylogenetic analyses performed using putatively neutral single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified a new genetic break, resulting in six major phylogenetic groups of pikas across the species distribution. Range-wide, patterns of adaptive variation inferred from putatively adaptive SNPs followed a latitudinal gradient, with highest genomic vulnerability predicted among populations in Oregon that were associated with a large decrease in winter radiation. Within the Cascades lineage, I found evidence for adaptive divergence between populations at high and low elevations along three independent elevational transects, despite evidence for gene flow. Collectively, this thesis provides evidence for climate-mediated adaptation in American pikas at various spatial scales. More broadly, it highlights the utility of population genomics for guiding conservation, particularly in the face of rapid climate change.

description: The linear Boltzmann equation for elastic and/or inelastic scattering is applied to derive the distribution function of a spatially homogeneous system of charged particles spreading in a host medium of two-level atoms and subjected to external electric and/or magnetic fields. We construct a Fokker-Planck approximation to the kinetic equations and derive the most general class of distributions for the given problem by discussing in detail some physically meaningful cases. The equivalence with the transport theory of electrons in a phonon background is also discussed.

description: Europium-based materials are highly attractive due to their diverse range of physical properties. In these studies, we aimed to synthesize single crystals of the potentially topological semimetallic compound EuAgP, which up to this day has only been obtained in polycrystalline form. The flux method was employed for the syntheses, using fluxes such as: Bi, Sn, Pb, and In, in their various ratios. The purpose of using Bi flux was to try synthesizing an analog of EuAgAs single crystals, by fully substituting arsenic with phosphorus. The obtained crystals were characterized by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Despite many unsuccessful attempts to synthesize EuAgP single crystals, the study provides valuable insights into how different fluxes and their ratios influence the final synthesis product. It also underscores the complexity of designing analogs between arsenides and phosphides.

description: The next-to-leading order analysis for the cross section for hadroproduction of top quark pairs close to threshold is presented. Within the framework of non-relativistic QCD a significant enhancement compared to fixed order perturbation theory is observed which originates from the characteristic remnant of the 1S peak below production threshold of top quark pairs. The analysis includes all color singlet and color octet configurations of top quark pairs in S-wave states and, for the dominant configurations, it employs all-order soft gluon resummation for the hard parton cross section. Numerical results for the Large Hadron Collider at $\sqrt{s} = 14 $TeV and $\sqrt{s} = 10 $TeV and also for the Tevatron are presented. The possibility of a top quark mass measurement from the invariant mass distribution of top quark pairs is discussed.

description: The aim of the present study is to test whether the cold accretion of gas through a "cosmic filament" Macciò et al. 2006 is a possible formation scenario for the polar disk galaxy NGC 4650A. If polar disks form from cold accretion of gas, the abundances of the HII regions may be similar to those of very late-type spiral galaxies, regardless of the presence of a bright central stellar spheroid, with total luminosity of few 10^9 Lsun. We use deep long slit spectra obtained with the FORS2 spectrograph at the VLT in the optical and near-infrared wavelength ranges for the brightest HII regions in the disk polar disk of NGC 4650A. The strongest emission lines ([OII] Hbeta, [OIII], Halpha) were used to derived oxygen abundances, metallicities and the global star formation rates for the disk. The deep spectra available allowed us to measure the Oxygen abundances (12 + log (O/H)) using the "Empirical method" based on intensities of the strongest emission lines, and the "Direct method", based on the determination of the electron temperature from the detection of weak auroral lines, as the [OIII] at 4363 Angstrom. The Oxygen abundance measured for the polar disk is then compared with those measured for different galaxy types of similar total luminosities, and then compared against the predictions of different polar ring formation scenarios. The average metallicity values for the polar disk in NGC 4650A is Z=0.2 Zsun, and it is lower that the values measured for ordinary spirals of similar luminosity. Moreover the gradient of the metallicity is flat along the polar disk major axis, which implies none or negligible metal enrichment from the stars in the older central spheroid. The low metallicity value in the polar disk NGC 4650A and the flat metallicity gradient are both consistent with a later infall of metal-poor gas, as expected in the cold accretion processes.

In this context, we explore static plane symmetric vacuum solutions using the metric approach of this theory. The field equations are solved using the assumption of constant scalar curvature which may be zero or non-zero. We have found a total of three plane symmetric solutions. The correspondence of these solutions with the well-known solutions in General Relativity is given.

description: For an electron spin in coupling with an interacting spin chain via hyperfine-type interaction, we investigate the dynamical evolutions of the pairwise entanglement of the spin chain and a correlation function joined the electron spin with a pair of chain spins in correspondence to the electron spin coherence evolution. Both quantities manifest a periodic and a decaying evolution. The entanglement of the spin bath is significant in distinguishing the zero-coherence status exhibited in periodic and decoherence evolutions of the electron spin. The periodical concurrence evolution of the spin bath characterizes the whole system in a coherence-preserving phase, particularly for the case that the associated periodic coherence evolution is predominated by zero-value in the infinite chain-length limit, which was often regarded as the realization of decoherence.

DNA damage induced SUMOylation regulates intranuclear protein quality control in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Creators: name: Kumar, Arun
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Proteostasis is critical for cell survival. Exposure to stressors such as DNA damage, heat, mutations, or ageing can accumulate proteins in non-native conformations. The accumulation of these misfolded proteins, through either gain- or loss-of-function, disrupts vital cellular processes. This is notably evident in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson's which are linked to protein aggregation pathology. Therefore, cells strive to maintain a healthy proteome which is achieved through a complex network of protein quality control (PQC) circuits. Traditionally, PQC was thought to rely on two major pathways: molecular chaperones for refolding and proteolytic systems for degradation. However, this perspective has been challenged with the discovery of protein sequestration. Under severe stress conditions that overwhelm PQC systems, misfolded proteins are spatially sequestered to specialized and distinct membrane-less inclusions within the cell. This spatial compartmentalization represents a crucial aspect of PQC, facilitating the storage of disassembled or non-native proteins until they can be either refolded or degraded in a regulated manner. The model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae or budding yeast has three well-established sequestration sites – the Insoluble PrOtein Deposit (IPOD), the JUxtaNuclear Quality control (JUNQ) site and the IntraNuclear Quality control (INQ) site. Although substantial efforts have contributed to identifying key proteins involved in the formation and dissolution of these sequestration sites, our understanding of the regulation and dynamics of INQ remains incomplete. In my thesis, I provide a comprehensive analysis of all proteins that have been found at INQ. Furthermore, I explore different pathways and stressors to expand our knowledge of the factors governing INQ formation. To do so, I first characterize Rpd3, a histone deacetylase, as a novel INQ marker and use its localization as a proxy for INQ levels. Through microscopy and genetic approaches, I demonstrate that INQ formation of Rpd3 is a general response to DNA damage. Furthermore, I explore the role of the post-translational modification (PTM) SUMOylation at INQ and document the DNA damage induced SUMOylation of chaperone Btn2 and Hsp42. Additionally, I engineer a non-SUMOylatable Btn2 and dissect its role in INQ clearance, placing it at the nexus of protein degradation and refolding at INQ.

description: ABRIDGED) We revise the formation of Galactic GCs by adding the detailed chemical composition of their different stellar generations (from 1200 giants in 19 GCs) to their global parameters. We propose to identify as GCs those showing the Na-O anticorrelation, and we classify the GCs according to kinematics and location in the Galaxy in disk/bulge, inner, and outer halo. We find that the LF of GCs is fairly independent of their population, suggesting that it is imprinted by the formation mechanism, and only marginally affected by the ensuing evolution. We show that a large fraction of the primordial population should have been lost by the proto-GCs. The extremely low Al abundances found for the primordial population of massive GCs indicate a very fast enrichment process before the formation of the primordial population. We suggest a scenario for the formation of GCs including at least 3 main phases: i) the formation of a precursor population (likely due to the interaction of cosmological structures similar to those leading to dwarf spheroidals, but residing at smaller Rgc, with the early Galaxy or with other structures), ii) which triggers a large episode of star formation (the primordial population), and iii) the formation of the current GC, mainly within a cooling flow formed by the slow winds of a fraction of the primordial population. The precursor population is very effective in raising the metal content in massive and/or metal poor (mainly halo) clusters, while its role is minor in small and/or metal rich (mainly disk) ones. Finally, we use PCA and multivariate relations to study the phase of metal-enrichment from 1st to 2nd generation. Most of the chemical signatures of GCs may be ascribed to a few parameters, the most important being [Fe/H], mass, and age of the cluster, with the location within the Galaxy also playing some role.

description: Application of the fractional calculus to quantum processes is presented. In particular, the quantum dynamics is considered in the framework of the fractional time Schrödinger equation (SE), which differs from the standard SE by the fractional time derivative: $\frac{\prt}{\prt t}\to \frac{\prt^α}{\prt t^α}$. It is shown that for $α=1/2$ the fractional SE is isospectral to a comb model. An analytical expression for the Green functions of the systems are obtained. The semiclassical limit is discussed.

description: Single-layer and Bilayer of graphene are new classes of two-dimensional electron systems with unconventional band structures and valley degrees of freedom. The ground states and excitations in the integer and fractional quantum Hall regimes are investigated on torus and spherical geometries with the use of the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. At nonzero Landau level indices, the ground states at effective filling factors 1, 1/3, 2/3 and 2/5 are valley polarized both in single-layer and bilayer graphenes. We examine the elementary charge excitations which could couple with the valley degrees of freedom (so called valley skyrmions). The excitation gaps are calculated and extrapolated to the thermodynamic limit. The largest excitation gap at effective filling 1/3 is obtained in bilayer graphene, which is a good candidate for experimental observation of fractional quantum Hall effect.

description: We examine the effective counterion-mediated electrostatic interaction between two like-charged dielectric cylinders immersed in a continuous dielectric medium containing neutralizing mobile counterions. We focus on the effects of image charges induced as a result of the dielectric mismatch between the cylindrical cores and the surrounding dielectric medium and investigate the counterion-mediated electrostatic interaction between the cylinders in both limits of weak and strong electrostatic couplings (corresponding, e.g., to systems with monovalent and multivalent counterions, respectively). The results are compared with extensive Monte-Carlo simulations exhibiting good agreement with the limiting weak and strong coupling results in their respective regime of validity.

description: To reduce the human intervention in the preference measure process,this article proposes a preference collaborative measure framework based on an updated belief system,which is also capable of improving the accuracy and efficiency of preferen-ce measure algorithms.Firstly,the distance of rules and the average internal distance of rulesets are proposed for specifying the relationship between the rules.For discovering the most representative preferences that are common in all users,namely common preference,a algorithm based on average internal distance of ruleset,PRA algorithm,is proposed,which aims to finish the discoveryprocess with minimum information loss rate.Furthermore,the concept of Common belief is proposed to update the belief system,and the common preferences are the evidences of updated belief system.Then,under the belief system,the proposed belief degree and deviation degree are used to determine whether a rule confirms the belief system or not and classify the preference rules into two kinds(generalized or personalized),and eventually filters out Top-K interesting rules relying on belief degree and deviation degree.Based on above,a scalable interestingness calculation framework that can apply various formulas is proposed for accurately calculating interestingness in different conditions.At last,IMCos algorithm and IMCov algorithm are proposed as exemplars to verify the accuracy and efficiency of the framework by using weighted cosine similarity and correlation coefficients as belief degree.In experiments,the proposed algorithms are compared to two state-of-the-art algorithms and the results show that IMCos and IMCov outperform than the other two in most aspects.

Citizen scientists and environmental stewards in Pacific Spirit Park

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Citizen science offers a unique opportunity to reconcile relational and substantive definitions of environmental expertise within STS scholarship. Additionally, because significant overlap exists between the work done by citizen scientists and environmental stewards, it may be prudent to incorporate environmental stewardship as a framework through which to understand citizen scientists, and, by extension, their capacity as environmental experts. As environmental expertise rests upon the ecological knowledge of a specific place, I conducted a six-month long participatory ethnographic study as a volunteer with the Pacific Spirit Park Society, a nonprofit organization of volunteer environmental stewards and citizen scientists in Pacific Spirit Regional Park in Vancouver, B.C. I also combined qualitative, semistructured interviews of my fellow volunteers with my own autoethnographic account of restoration and interpretation work to illustrate the process by which volunteers developed varying levels of expertise in regards to local ecological knowledge. Interlocutors also considered their responsibilities to both human and nonhuman members of their community, negotiated their own responsibilities as interpreters of ecological knowledge to the lay public, and reflected on how their lived experiences as boundary workers contrasted with traditional institutional epistemologies of science. I found that while there were volunteers who served as nexuses of information, the transfer of knowledge from one person to another was never unilateral, and a person’s expertise always developed in concert with that of another. The act of interpreting knowledge so as to make it accessible for fellow volunteers as well as for the public helped recruit people for the mission of care and stewardship. The lens of stewardship likewise enhances STS analyses of citizen science by providing context for how knowledge is applied and carried by practitioners.

description: Aim: The drivers of genetic diversity in Amazonia, the most species-rich set of ecosystems on Earth, are still incompletely understood. Species from distinct Amazonian ecosystems have unique biogeographic histories that will reflect regional landscape and climatic drivers of genetic diversity. We studied bird species from patchy Amazonian white-sand ecosystems (WSE) to evaluate the occurrence of shared biogeographic patterns to better understand the complex environmental and landscape history of Amazonia and its biodiversity. Location: Northern South America; Amazonia. Taxon: Passeriformes. Methods: We sequenced Ultra-conserved Elements (UCEs) from 177 samples of seven bird species associated with WSE that have overlapping ranges. We used the SNP matrices and sequence data to estimate genetic structure and migration surfaces using ‘conStruct’ and eems, performed model-selection to obtain the most probable demographic histories on ‘PipeMaster’ and implemented analyses of shared demography with ecoevolity. Results: Shallow genetic structure patterns varied among species. The Amazon river was the only barrier shared among them. Population structure dates to no more than 450,000 years ago. Nine geographically structured populations showed signals of population size changes and eight of these occur in Northern Amazonia. Population expansion was inferred at two distinct times: ~100,000 and ~ 50,000 years ago. The timing of co-expanding populations is consistent with differences in habitat preference, as species that prefer dense scrubby to forested vegetation expanded more recently compared to species that prefer open vegetation. Main conclusions: WSE species responded in concert to environmental and landscape changes that occurred in the relatively recent past. Population expansions were likely driven by the genesis of new WSE patches and a return to wetter conditions after glacial periods. Pleistocene climatic cycles affected the distribution and dynamics of open vegetation habitats in Amazonia, especially in the Northern region, driving genetic diversity and demographic patterns of its associated biota.

description: Probability Density Estimation (PDE) is a multivariate discrimination technique based on sampling signal and background densities defined by event samples from data or Monte-Carlo (MC) simulations in a multi-dimensional phase space. In this paper, we present a modification of the PDE method that uses a self-adapting binning method to divide the multi-dimensional phase space in a finite number of hyper-rectangles (cells). The binning algorithm adjusts the size and position of a predefined number of cells inside the multi-dimensional phase space, minimising the variance of the signal and background densities inside the cells. The implementation of the binning algorithm PDE-Foam is based on the MC event-generation package Foam. We present performance results for representative examples (toy models) and discuss the dependence of the obtained results on the choice of parameters. The new PDE-Foam shows improved classification capability for small training samples and reduced classification time compared to the original PDE method based on range searching.

Il caso dei Raeliani contro la Svizzera

description: 7th March, 2001: the Swiss Raëlian Movement, a non-profit association which has been duly registered since 1977, asks the Neuchatel police for authorization to carry out a billposting campaign. The Raëlian poster itself presents nothing that is illegal, offensive or shocking. Authorisation, however, is denied. The local authorities fear that, if displayed in a public place, the poster could lead public opinion to believe that the town approves of the ideas of the Raëlian Movement. The problem is that the Association shows itself to be in favour of cloning, eugenics, geniocracy and a vaguely-defined practice of “sensual meditation” which foresees, or does not exclude, the participation of adolescents. 10th April, 2006: having exhausted the national instruments of jurisdictional defence, the Swiss Raëlian Movement raises the case before the European Court of Human Rights. 13th January, 2011: the First Section of the ECHR rejects the Association’s appeal. 20th June, 2011: the case is adjourned before the Grand Chamber of the ECHR. The case of the Swiss Raëlian Movement against Switzerland again presents the European Court of Human Rights with the problem of the balance of religious liberty and of freedom of expression in the present framework of social, cultural, religious and confessional pluralism. The case will predictably attract political attention and scientific debate. Finding itself under the scrutiny of the Grand Chamber, it does, in fact, seem destined to be of great relevance in the law of the European Court. Whilst awaiting the Grand Chamber’s definitive verdict on the case, the First Section of the ECHR has established that the legislative measure with which the national Swiss authorities denied the Raëlian Movement the authorization for the billposting campaign does not constitute a violation of art. 10 ECHR, if the measure was adopted on the basis of a national regulation with the objective of safeguarding health and morals, and the aim of preventing the commission of crimes. However, two dissenting opinions denounce the contradiction. The Swiss Raëlian Movement and its ideas are considered lawful. The same ideas, transmitted via a billposting campaign in a public place, seem to become unlawful. How is this possible?

description: The tension between sacred and secular runs throughout the history of Italy and determines the Catholic Church’s difficult relationship with scientific progress. However, over the course of time a significant scientific dialogue has been set in motion in the juridical system of the Catholic Church between the theological areas of the humanistic disciplines and the experimental areas of the anthropological sciences. Faced with the progress of modern science, the evolution of canon law therefore becomes a useful and original key to the interpretation of the Catholic Church’s confrontation with modernity.

description: In order to evaluate $g_0$, the interaction strength of a pair of $^{52}$Cr atoms with total spin S=0, a specially designed s-wave scattering of the pair has been studied theoretically. Both the incident atom and the target atom trapped by a harmonic potential are polarized previously but in reverse directions. Due to spin-flip, the outgoing atom may have spin component $μ$ ranging from -3 to 3. The outgoing channels are classified by $μ$. The effect of $g_{0}$ on the scattering amplitudes of each of these $μ-$channels has been predicted.
