DENDROECOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT AND NICHE MODELING OF A RARE CONIFER SPECIES, PSEUDOTSUGA MACROCARPA, IN LOS PADRES NATIONAL FOREST, CALIFORNIA
Creators: name: Wolfgang, Michelle Devon
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: Widespread forest dieback, often driven by unprecedented wildfires and droughts of the past century, presently impacts all forested continents worldwide. Locally endemic, narrow-ranged tree species suffer disproportionate mortality from drought and wildfire and may be especially at-risk for climate-induced extinction. Pseudotsuga macrocarpa (bigcone Douglas-fir), a conifer species endemic to the Transverse and Peninsular Ranges of southern California chaparral, occupies a narrow range and may be particularly vulnerable to climate-induced extirpation. The 2017/18 Thomas Fire and 2007 Zaca Fire significantly reduced populations at the leading edge of the range in Los Padres National Forest (LPNF). Restoration plans are currently underway yet remain challenged by the effects of the 2011-2016 multiyear drought (MYD). As forests experience progressively warmer and drier conditions, effective and adaptive forest management of P. macrocarpa will require a thorough understanding of how growth and mortality patterns are affected by climate and wildfire including the ecologically-relevant variables that control habitat suitability and distribution. We present the results of two studies: (1) a dendroecological assessment relating 20th and 21st century annual ring width of interior and coastal P. macrocarpa populations to periodic climate oscillations and (2) a habitat niche modeling approach to identify contemporary and future climate change refugia. Regional warming and drying due to climate change and enhanced by longer interdecadal periods of drought and multidecadal variation resulting from the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), are the most likely climatic drivers of recent P. macrocarpa decline in LPNF. Interior and coastal P. macrocarpa populations responded differently to climate overall, yet began exhibiting similar signs of distress after the 1976-1977 PDO switch. As such, our evidence suggests the MYD likely restricted growth recovery in the perimeter of the 2007 Zaca Fire and primed mortality in the perimeter of the 2017/18 Thomas Fire. Contemporary and future refugia models suggest that P. macrocarpa restoration in LPNF should prioritize low elevation and coastal sites with consistent moisture availability and temperature regimes. Furthermore, conservation of mature, reproductive age populations may be crucial for passive restoration plans in an otherwise fire- and drought-prone landscape.

description: We extend the analysis of Higgs-regulated planar amplitudes of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory to four loops for the four-gluon amplitude and to two loops for the five-gluon amplitude. Our calculations are consistent with a proposed all-loop ansatz for planar MHV n-gluon amplitudes that is the analog of the BDS ansatz in dimensional regularization. In all cases considered, we have verified that the IR-finite parts of the logarithm of the amplitudes have the same dependence on kinematic variables as the corresponding functions in dimensionally-regulated amplitudes (up to overall additive constants, which we determine). We also study various Regge limits of N=4 SYM planar n-gluon amplitudes. Euclidean Regge limits of Higgs-regulated n \geq 4 amplitudes yield results similar in form to those found using dimensional regularization, but with different expressions for the gluon trajectory and Regge vertices resulting from the different regulator scheme. We also show that the Regge limit of the four-gluon amplitude is dominated at next-to-leading-log order by vertical ladder diagrams together with the class of vertical ladder diagrams with a single H-shaped insertion.

description: We study asymptotic relations connecting unipotent averages of $Sp(2g,\mathbb{Z})$ automorphic forms to their integrals over the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties. We obtain reformulations of the Riemann hypothesis as a class of problems concerning the computation of the equidistribution convergence rate in those asymptotic relations. We discuss applications of our results to closed string amplitudes. Remarkably, the Riemann hypothesis can be rephrased in terms of ultraviolet relations occurring in perturbative closed string theory.

Cloud computing based real time supply chain system for vaccine distribution
Creators: name: Ansari, Usama Zafar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: The supply chain monitored in real-time using the sensors makes supply chain flow efficient and reliable. The Coronavirus Disease of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has added pressure on the federal and provincial governments to identify appropriate vaccine distribution solutions. In order to reduce the losses of the vaccines throughout the supply chain, such a solution was needed to notify the supply chain stakeholders to take action if the temperature or humidity of a batch of vaccines begin to cross its threshold level and also to allow the stakeholders to view the location of a specific batch of vaccines while in transit. There has been a great loss of vaccines in transit which is resulting in an expensive overhead for the supply chain. So, there is a need for cloud computing based monitoring of vaccine shipment using sensors embedded into the shipping container to track the location, temperature, and humidity of vaccine batches during transportation. Since these sensitive properties will be monitored in real-time which would ultimately lead to fewer losses of the vaccines. The simulation of sensor data is done to achieve the real-world condition for vaccine movement. The cloud computing services architecture is used to make the working of supply chain efficient and transfer of ownership between the entities involved in delivering the vaccines in a trusted way. The data generated through this transfer of ownership is immutable and it would generate the efficient trust of entities in the supply chain. This would build a reliable supply chain and provide the visibility to take timely actions to prevent the vaccines from getting damaged. Reliability would build trust in the supply chain from the immutability of the database. As a result of visibility, timely action should be taken to prevent vaccines from getting damaged by the environmental conditions through which it is being transported.

description: Small-scale hydrogen liquefaction presents an opportunity to drive down market costs by eliminating the cost associated with transportation. With the decline of fossil fuels and other nonrenewable energy sources, billions of dollars are being invested in large-scale hydrogen liquefaction. Large-scale systems have higher efficiencies, but limit accessibility. Little research has been done to optimize small-scale systems, and the presented options are often not scalable beyond a laboratory setting. The most inefficient system components are the heat exchanger, the nitrogen refrigerator, and the cycle compressor. In this thesis a novel, scalable, heat exchanger design based on principles of entropy minimization is presented. The design utilizes a branching structure with exponentially varying wall thickness and mounts onto a Gifford-McMahon cryogenic refrigerator. Numerical optimization indicates an efficiency increase of 39.21% when compared to a single tube design. The thermal mass is decreased by 43.82% and the length of the optimized design is only 8.61% of that of the single tube design. The heat exchanger is additively manufactured with an aluminum alloy and the interior is coated with a ruthenium-based catalyst to facilitate the ortho-parahydrogen conversion. Hydrogen enters the heat exchanger at 293 K and 653 kPa. It is cooled to 28.1 K and full ortho-parahydrogen conversion is assumed prior to reaching the storage dewar. The experimental measured rate of liquefaction is determined to be 0.003535 g/s, the upper flange of the heat exchanger resides at 58.0523 K, and the lower flange resides at 26.1631 K. The temperature difference between the lower flange of the heat exchanger and outlet fluid flow is less than 0.5 K. The mass flow rate and operating temperatures are lower than predicted. This is likely due to poor thermal properties of the heat exchanger material and poor thermal contact between the heat exchanger and the cryogenic refrigerator. However, the small temperature difference suggests small temperature gradients within the system, indicating minimum entropy generation. Suggestions are given to improve system performance.

description: Recombination of photogenerated charge carriers in polymer bulk heterojunction (BHJ) solar cells reduces the short circuit current (Jsc) and the fill factor (FF). Identifying the mechanism of recombination is, therefore, fundamentally important for increasing the power conversion efficiency. Light intensity and temperature dependent current-voltage measurements on polymer BHJ cells made from a variety of different semiconducting polymers and fullerenes show that the recombination kinetics are voltage dependent and evolve from first order recombination at short circuit to bimolecular recombination at open circuit as a result of increasing the voltage-dependent charge carrier density in the cell. The "missing 0.3V" inferred from comparison of the band gaps of the bulk heterojunction materials and the measured open circuit voltage at room temperature results from the temperature dependence of the quasi-Fermi-levels in the polymer and fullerene domains - a conclusion based upon the fundamental statistics of Fermions.

description: Pediatric overweight and obesity are defined by a child’s percentile on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Body Mass Index (BMI)-for-age growth chart. Overweight is defined as ≥ 85th percentile but < 95th percentile. Obese youth are ≥ 95th percentile. In the United States 34.2% of youth ages 6 through 11 were overweight or obese in 2011-2012. In Michigan 33% of youth aged 10-17 were overweight or obese in 2013. This rate continues to rise. Childhood obesity is a well-documented risk factor for chronic physical and mental illness, adult obesity, and early mortality.

Researchers have found a relationship among sleep duration, dietary quality, and pediatric obesity. Evidence suggests that food intake increases during periods of restricted sleep and energy expenditure is affected by sleep through mechanisms related to sleeping metabolic rate, thermic effect of food, and physical activity. Guidelines recommend at least 10 hours of sleep per night for school-age children. Research suggests a bi-directional relationship between sleep and pediatric obesity such that getting less sleep than is developmentally appropriate causes hormonal and metabolic changes that may increase obesity risk, while obesity increases the risk of sleep disorders such as obstructive sleep apnea.

Due to the high prevalence and various associated negative health outcomes, the issue of childhood obesity has entered the national spotlight in recent years. Healthy People 2020 includes the following objective: “Promote health and reduce chronic disease risk through the consumption of healthful diets and achievement and maintenance of healthy body weights.”

Purpose: To characterize the relationship between childhood obesity and sleep duration in a high-risk population of school-age children.

description: We establish the dominant effect of anisotropic weak localization (WL) in three dimensions associated with a propagative Fermi surface, on the conductivity correction in heavily nitrogen doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) films based on magneto-resistance studies at low temperatures. Also, low temperature electrical conductivity can show weakly localized transport in 3D combined with the effect of electron-electron interactions in these materials, which is remarkably different from the conductivity in 2DWL or strong localization regime. The corresponding dephasing time of electronic wavefunctions in these systems described as ~ T^-p with p < 1, follows a relatively weak temperature dependence compared to the generally expected nature for bulk dirty metals having $p \geq 1$. The temperature dependence of Hall (electron) mobility together with an enhanced electron density has been used to interpret the unusual magneto-transport features and show delocalized electronic transport in these n-type UNCD films, which can be described as low-dimensional superlattice structures.

Functional consequences of transmembrane protein 30A (TMEM30A) inactivating mutations in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
Creators: name: Baticados, Abigail Morales
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Novel recurrent inactivating mutations and copy number loss of transmembrane 30A protein (TMEM30A) were identified in 347 de novo DLBCL cases. Specifically, TMEM30A loss of function (LOF) mutations were discovered to co-occur with hemizygous deletion or copy neutral LOH in 80% of the subset of cases with TMEM30A alteration. Furthermore, patients with biallelic inactivation of TMEM30A had superior treatment outcomes compared to patients with WT TMEM30A. Presently, the role of TMEM30A in lymphomagenesis remains elusive. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify its biological function and significance in DLBCL. DOHH-2, a human DLBCL cell line was genetically modified to create several mutant clones with TMEM30A LOF. Specifically, a stable TMEM30A knockdown (KD) and biallelic TMEM30A CRISPR knockout (KO) and control TMEM30A non-silenced (NS) cells were created. All experimental cells including DOHH-2 wildtype (WT) were subjected to serum deprivation and treatment with cytotoxic agents. The rate of apoptosis and viability of the cells were measured using flow cytometry (FCM) assays and cleaved caspase 3 (Casp-3) immunoassays. TMEM30A active cells (WT and NS) showed significantly higher (P< 0.01 and P< 0.05) rates of apoptosis compared to the mutant TMEM30A-LOF (KO and KD) cells at 24h post-serum starvation, respectively. Similarly, increased cell death was observed to be significant (P< 0.01) in control cells compared to the mutant cells at 96h serum starvation, confirmed by results of Casp-3 immunoassays, FCM assays, and densitometry analyses. (P< 0.001). Restoring TMEM30A expression in KO cells showed a reversal in phenotype in which restored cells became more sensitive to serum deprivation. Conversely, cytotoxicity experiments demonstrated that cell survival significantly (P< 0.01) decreases in KO compared to WT cells after treatment with zeocin, a radiomimetic drug that induces DNA double-strand breaks. These findings suggest that TMEM30A inactivation plays multiple roles in the presence of environmental stress. Future studies that will clarify the mechanisms underlying increased resistance to nutrient deprived conditions and increased chemo-sensitivity observed in DLBCL cells with TMEM30A inactivation may allow the identification of novel therapeutic approaches for the treatment of B-cell lymphomas.

description: We report on the thermal properties and composition of asteroid (2867) Steins derived from an analysis of new Spitzer Space Telescope (SST) observations performed in March 2008, in addition to previously published SST observations performed in November 2005. We consider the three-dimensional shape model and photometric properties derived from OSIRIS images obtained during the flyby of the Rosetta spacecraft in September 2008, which we combine with a thermal model to properly interpret the observed SST thermal light curve and spectral energy distributions. We obtain a thermal inertia in the range 100\pm50 JK-1m-2s-1/2 and a beaming factor (roughness) in the range 0.7-1.0. We confirm that the infrared emissivity of Steins is consistent with an enstatite composition. The November 2005 SST thermal light curve is most reliably interpreted by assuming inhomogeneities in the thermal properties of the surface, with two different regions of slightly different roughness, as observed on other small bodies, such as the nucleus of comet 9P/Tempel 1. Our results emphasize that the shape model is important to an accurate determination of the thermal inertia and roughness. Finally, we present temperature maps of Steins, as seen by Rosetta during its flyby, and discuss the interpretation of the observations performed by the VIRTIS and MIRO instruments.

PREDATION RISK FOR HOARY MARMOTS IN THE CHANGING CLIMATE OF WASHINGTON’S NORTH CASCADES
Creators: name: Whiles, Logan Johnson
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2022

description: Climatic changes can reduce habitat availability of high-elevation specialists such as the hoary marmot (Marmota caligata), a hibernating rodent of subalpine meadows and talus fields. Observed hoary marmot mean abundance in North Cascades National Park (NOCA) has declined by 74%, and though declines of other marmot populations have been attributed to increasing predation pressure, this relationship remains unexplored in NOCA. To examine the link between potential predators and hoary marmots in NOCA, I coupled surveys of hoary marmot vigilance behavior with estimates of predation risk based on predator diet composition and probability of use near hoary marmot colonies. We conducted 145 focal-animal surveys to determine the proportion of time hoary marmots spent vigilant. We surveyed 9,930 trap nights using 130 remote cameras and modeled predator occupancy using environmental covariates. We used genetic metabarcoding to identify predator and prey DNA in 413 scat samples. From camera traps and fecal DNA, we detected ten predator species in the study area, and we detected hoary marmots in the scats of five species. The proportion of observed hoary marmot predation was highest for coyotes (Canis latrans) (Χ2 = 31.78, p < 0.0001) at 50%. To our knowledge, we also report the first record of hoary marmots being consumed by Pacific martens (Martes caurina),which were also significant predators (proportion of observed consumption = 32%). Although I expected that predators with low-elevation habits would use sites with lower snow persistence, this prediction was supported only for coyotes, but not for other low-elevation predators. Combining probability of use estimates with observed hoary marmot consumption rates to develop a predation risk index, we found the risk was highest from Pacific martens (0.20) and lowest from Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) (< 0.01). However, estimates of predation risk and human use of sites did not explain the variation in hoary marmot vigilance, despite hoary marmots allocating > 50% of their time to vigilance. Our findings of consumption of hoary marmots by predators are similar to other studies of imperiled marmot populations, highlighting the need to better understand the effect of climate-driven shifts in predator-prey ecology in NOCA.

description: Kitaev honeycomb model with topological phase transition at zero temperature is studied using quantum information method. Based on the exact solution of the ground state, the mutual information between two nearest sites and between two bonds with longest distance are obtained. It is found that the mutual information show some singularities at the critical point where the ground state of the system transits from gapless phase to gapped phase. The finite-size effects and scalar behavior are also studied. The mutual information can serve as good indicators of the topological phase transition, since the mutual information catches some global correlation properties of the system. Meanwhile, this method has other advantages such that the phase transition can be determined easily and the order parameters are not required previously, for the order parameters of some topological phase transitions are hard to know.

description: Recent observational evidence that magnetic fields are dynamically important in molecular clouds, compared to self-gravity and turbulence, is reviewed and illustrated with data from the NGC 2024 region. One piece of evidence, turbulence anisotropy, was found in the diffuse envelope of a cloud (Av~1; Heyer et al. 2008); our data further suggests turbulence anisotropy in the cloud (Av >7) and even near the cloud core (Av~100). The data also shows that magnetic fields can channel gravitational contraction even for a region with super-critical N(H2)/2Blos ratio (the ratio between the observed column density and two times the line-of-sight observed field strength), a parameter which has been widely used by observers to estimate core mass-to-flux ratios. Although the mass-to-flux ratio is constant under the flux-freezing condition, we show that N(H2)/2Blos grows with time if gravitational contraction is anisotropic due to magnetic fields.

Physiological aspects of iron status and manipulation in lowlander and adapted highlanders at high altitude
Creators: name: Patrician, Alexander M. D.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: With ascent to high altitude, the reduction in the partial pressure of oxygen (PO₂) drives the stabilization of the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) family. As the key cellular oxygen sensor, HIF up-regulates the expression of numerous genes designed to increase and preserve O₂ tissue delivery. Since iron plays an inverse and constituent role in HIF stabilization, the overall objectives of the current thesis were: 1) determine the role of iron status manipulation on pulmonary, peripheral and cerebral responses to high-altitude; 2) and examine if indigenous high-altitude populations (i.e. Sherpa and Andeans), with ancestral adaptation to their hypoxic environment, exhibit iron-regulatory advantages. Study 1 investigated the effects of ascent and prolonged stay at 5050 m on iron status and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction. The primary findings were that 1) during ascent, reductions in iron bioavailability were more prevalent in lowlanders, compared to Sherpa; 2) following partial acclimatization to 5050 m, iron infusion (HIF-down regulation) attenuated pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) in both lowlanders and Sherpa while deferoxamine infusion (HIF-up regulation) had little influence. Study 2, in a block-randomized and placebo-controlled design, examined whether the pulmonary vasculature of lowlanders and adapted Andeans at 4300 m are responsive to iron infusion. The findings revealed that, unlike the placebo condition, iron infusion reduced PASP in both lowlanders and Andeans. Study 3 then evaluated the role of iron infusion on peripheral vascular function in the same volunteers at 4300 m. Here, iron infusion (but not saline) increased brachial blood flow and increased microvascular function across the 4-hours, in both lowlanders and Andeans. Upon pooling data (n=83), across both lowlanders and highlanders, Study 4 explored whether the same iron manipulations can modulate hypoxic cerebral vasodilation. It was found that baseline iron levels were related to the variability in magnitude of the hypoxic cerebral vasodilation at high-altitude. In summary, new evidence is provided that support iron status may influence blood flow regulation in the pulmonary, peripheral and cerebral circulations during exposure to high-altitude. Future studies are needed to explore the mechanisms and implications of these observations in high-altitude physiology and pathology.

description: Motivated by the role that spectral properties play for the dynamical evolution of a quantum many-body system, we investigate the level spacing statistic of the extended Bose-Hubbard model. In particular, we focus on the distribution of the ratio of adjacent level spacings, useful at large interaction, to distinguish between chaotic and non-chaotic regimes. After revisiting the bare Bose-Hubbard model, we study the effect of two different perturbations: next-nearest neighbor hopping and nearest-neighbor interaction. The system size dependence is investigated together with the effect of the proximity to integrable points or lines. Lastly, we discuss the consequences of a cutoff in the number of onsite bosons onto the level statistics.

Human leukocyte antigen b cell epitope matching in kidney transplantation
Creators: name: Tran, Jenny
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Transplantation is the preferred treatment for end-stage renal disease, but premature graft loss is common and antibody-mediated rejection is a leading cause of transplant failure. Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) are the principal targets of these alloantibodies and matching for HLA can improve outcomes. However, matching is not routinely performed in Canada due to challenges such as vast geographic distances for organ-sharing and the heterogeneity of the HLA complex. This dissertation addresses an alternative method of HLA matching, called epitope or eplet matching. Eplets are amino acids on the HLA protein that are antibody targets. Eplet matching requires the amino acid sequence of patient and donor HLA proteins. To achieve this, the performance of Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) to sequence the 11 HLA genes was assessed in 2234 samples. These results identify the ambiguities in this method, demonstrate improvement in precision in sequencing chemistry, and enabled the implementation of NGS as a reliable technology for Canadian HLA laboratories. Utilizing this platform, HLA allele and eplet frequencies were analyzed in 1846 renal patients and donors to estimate the probability of matching in Canada. All 150 eplets were identified across class I and II alleles, demonstrating sharing between exemplary HLA proteins. Eplets occurred in higher frequencies than their allelic counterparts and distribution was comparable between donors and recipients. Simulations demonstrated prospective matching enables donor-recipient compatibility at class II genes with a waiting-list size of >250 patients, suggesting that eplet matching is achievable within province, avoiding the complexities of national organ sharing except for difficult-to-match patients. I then examined the eplet targets of antibodies formed to mismatched donor HLA under real-world conditions to explore relative immunogenicity. Donor-specific antibodies occurred in approximately 5% of 1155 recipients, were associated with accelerated graft loss, and were predicted by class II eplet mismatches. They were formed most commonly against HLA-DQB1 epitopes and both eplet location and amino acid composition appeared important suggesting a cardinal role in immunogenicity which may incorporated into matching strategies. This collective research provides a foundation of evidence that will support a national program to explore prospective eplet matching in renal transplantation.

description: Arrhythmia is the irregular rhythm of a problematic heartbeat that is caused by an issue with the electrical impulses that control the heart. These issues can lead to harmful cardiovascular deceases if not diagnosed and treated. In order to detect such irregularities in the heart, the resulting electric impulses from the contraction and relaxation of the heart muscles can be detected with the use of an Electrocardiograph which is examined by a trained professional. These heartbeats follows a general pattern with a priority in focus around the QRS complex. This pattern can be leveraged to train a neural network for anomaly detection by detecting when the impulses are different from what is expected for a normal heartbeat pattern. To extract these patterns, small sections of the time-series electrocardiographs will be extracted around the QRS complex and prepared by de-noising the signal with a bandpass filter, then normalized using an L2 normalization algorithm before being passed to a neural network. This neural network utilizes a Long-Short-Term-Memory layer as its core and is capable of classifying the differences in the heartbeat as one of eighteen different heartbeats with an accuracy of 97\% within 55ms when ran on a single-board computer like a Raspberry Pi 4. This demonstrates that a neural network can be used along side a portable electrocardiogram to provide real time diagnosis on arrhythmia without the requirement of lengthy hospital stays or expensive equipment as the neural network can keep up with the heart-rate of an individual while running on cheap, portable computing systems.

description: This paper investigates the time-bounded version of the reachability problem for hybrid automata. This problem asks whether a given hybrid automaton can reach a given target location within T time units, where T is a constant rational value. We show that, in contrast to the classical (unbounded) reachability problem, the timed-bounded version is decidable for rectangular hybrid automata provided only non-negative rates are allowed. This class of systems is of practical interest and subsumes, among others, the class of stopwatch automata. We also show that the problem becomes undecidable if either diagonal constraints or both negative and positive rates are allowed.

description: Endovascular aortic procedures are becoming increasingly common, replacing open surgical repair in the majority of patients with thoracoabominal aortic aneurysms. In these procedures, spinal cord perfusion is vulnerable. A high risk patient for spinal ischaemia was presented for a branched 22 cm long thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) elective procedure. We used a monitoring approach with a subarachnoid catheter, according to our institutional protocol for TEVAR procedures, complemented with the use of Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Continuous non-invasive surveillance of peri-spinal oxygen supply-demand balance during the procedure (NIRS), together with mean arterial pressure and cerebrospinal fluid pressure trends, was of uttermost importance to help us distinguish the pathophysiology mechanism behind the ischemic insult and act accordingly. NIRS has the potential to satisfy all the criteria for ideal spinal cord monitoring, such as noninvasive, continuous and real-time information about spinal cord perfusion and oxygenation.
