description: Organic Matter (SOM). Lacking O2, micro-organisms decompose SOM through  anaerobic decomposition, which in turn produces CH4. Because wetland soils are  continually saturated, the organic matter is decomposed primarily by anaerobic means,  which makes wetlands the primary source of naturally produced CH4 (Bartlett and  Harriss, 1993).  Even though wetlands are the major source of natural CH4, relatively little is known  on the amount of global CH4 emissions from tropical wetlands (Bartlett and Harriss,  1993). Dambos are tropical wetlands that can be categorized by their seasonally  saturated, grassy terrain (Mackel, 1985). Central Africa, including much of Uganda,  accounts for approximately 50,000 km of dambo wetlands (Bullock, 1992). Because  much of the Ugandan dambos are undeveloped, it provides an excellent area to assess the  dambo contribution to global CH4 emissions.  Phenology is the study of plant and animal response to seasonal change. An example  of a phenological pattern in vegetation is senescence of grasses as soil moisture  availability declines. Since soil micro-organisms are dependent on soil moisture, CH4  emissions are also closely related to seasonal moisture inundation. Because of the  correlation of soil moisture with vegetation phenology and CH4 emissions, an increased  understanding of dambo vegetation phenology may contribute to better understanding  CH4 emissions from dambo wetlands.  In order to properly evaluate and assess CH4 emissions from dambos, seasonally and  continually wet areas must be identified and classified. Image classification has long  been one of the most common applications for remote sensing analysis.

description: Nanopore technology has been at the center of attention during the past decade as one of the most promising methods for next-generation DNA sequencing. It proceeds by electrically drawing an individual single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) strand through a nanoscale pore, leading to detectable changes in the electrical current. Chief advantages of this technology are the minimal requirements of expensive reagents and data storage and handling equipment. The bacterial protein a-hemolysin is the most commonly used biological nanopore for this platform, due to its excellent stability, reproducibility and precise tuning properties by site-directed mutagenesis. One of the most difficult challenges of this technology arises from the low current amplitude resolution between the DNA nucleotides. The first work presented here approaches these problems by DNA site-specific chemistry to attach detectable labels to one of the most commonly occurring lesions in cells, DNA abasic (AP) sites. Several amines were used to attach to AP site, which showed detectable current changes when the ssDNA was immobilized inside of the nanopore. However, only the 18-crown-6 (18c6) moiety produced distinct current signatures during translocation, when bound to Na+. The bulky adduct also slowed down the DNA motion to more easily recordable levels, achieving the detection of individual AP sites at a single-molecule level. 18c6 can form different shapes of complexes, dictated by the surrounding ions, which was used to precisely manipulate its electrical behaviors. Secondly, the nanocavity of this protein was used to provide insights into secondary structures of the human telomeric G-quadruplexes at a single-molecule level. The folding of the repeat sequence at the end of the chromosome was shown to have significance to genome protection, and depending on the surrounding ions, it could form various quadruplexes. The interactions of these structures and the a-HL were correlated to different current patterns when the DNA was encapsulated inside of the channel, providing better understanding into the polymorphism of the human telomere sequence. Lastly, combining the above two findings, the 18c6 label was used to detect the oxidative damage of the G-quadruplexes, and the effect on the stability of these structures were also evaluated.

description: Metabolic gas analysis systems are important devices that are used to analyze respiratory gas exchange including volumetric flow rates and oxygen and carbon dioxide concentrations. This information provides useful insights into metabolic function. Traditionally, these systems were limited by their size and the functional requirements of the gas sensors including its sensitivity to water vapor and the alignment of flow and gas signals for real time analysis. Recently, Phillips-Respironics has developed a novel oxygen sensor that utilizes luminescence technology for oxygen analysis. When combined with a differential-pressure transducer and an on-airway nondispersive infrared CO2 sensor, the result is a compact system suitable for real time breath-by-breath gas analysis. The system has been validated for use in a critical care environment with low respiratory flows of ±180 L/min. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility by modifying the existing breathing circuit to accommodate higher volumetric gas flows (±400 L/min) for exercise stress testing applications. Several variations of the prototype systems were constructed. To increase the flow, a differential pressure flow transducer was obtained from a commercially available system used for exercise testing. The gas analysis sensors were then inserted into the main lumen at a 45o angle so that the signal strength across the differential pressure drop was greater than 5 cm H2O at 400 L/min and produced minimal back pressure resistance. Characterization of the flow required the use of a flow coefficient, indexed by the Reynolds number, to adjust for head losses created by the differential pressure sensor. With the flow coefficient adjustments, the accuracy of the flow compared to the theoretical flow value was within ±3% or ±1 L. A propane combustion chamber that simulated oxygen consumption was used to validate the luminescence-quenching oxygen sensor. The fraction of expired oxygen was determined theoretically based on the complete combustion of propane and compared to the actual recorded valued. The sensor was found to be accurate to within 6% across the range of flow.

description: The caspase-like vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) is a key factor in programmed cell death (PCD) associated with plant stress responses. Growth medium lacking a carbon source and dark conditions caused punctate labeling of 35S::VPE1-GFP (StVPE1-GFP) in potato leaves. Under conditions of carbon starvation, VPE activity and PCD symptoms strongly increased in BY-2 cells, but to a much lesser extent in VPE-RNAi BY-2 cells. During extended exposure to carbon starvation, VPE expression and activity levels peaked, with a gradual increase in BY-2 cell death. Histological analysis of StVPE1-GFP in BY-2 cells showed that carbon starvation induces its translocation from the endoplasmic reticulum to the central vacuole through tonoplast engulfment. Exposure of BY-2 culture to the macroautophagy/autophagy inhibitor concanamycin A led to, along with an accumulation of autophagic bodies, accumulation of StVPE1-GFP in the cell vacuole. This accumulation did not occur in the presence of 3-methyladenine, an inhibitor of early-stage autophagy. BY-2 cells constitutively expressing RFP-StATG8IL, an autophagosome marker, showed colocalization with the StVPE1-GFP protein in the cytoplasm and vacuole. RNAi silencing of the core autophagy component ATG4 in BY-2 cells reduced VPE activity and cell death. These results are the first to suggest that VPE translocates to the cell vacuole through the autophagy pathway, leading to PCD. Abbreviations: ATG: autophagy related; CLP: caspase-like protease; HR: hypersensitive response; PCD: programmed cell death; St: Solanum tuberosum; VPE: vacuolar processing enzyme.

description: Microbial bioherms constitute some of the earliest forms of life on Earth. Although the primary form of life on earth during the Proterozoic (Hoffman, 1994), modern occurrences that spread over an area greater than a few square kilometers are rare. Microbial bioherms in Great Salt Lake were reported more than 75 years ago (Eardley, 1938); however, no additional studies have been done on the extent of these structures nor on how environmental factors may influence their distribution. This dissertation documents the development of a methodology to examine the occurrence and spatial distribution of microbial bioherms in Great Salt Lake, Utah, using multiple lines of evidence including marine acoustic technologies, various spatial and aspatial analyses, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies, and in situ verification of bioherm occurrence. Microbial bioherms occupy an estimated area of more than 700 km2 in the south part of the lake and more than 300 km2 along the margins of the north part of Great Salt Lake. Distributions vary from statistically dispersed to clustered and are closely associated with structurally controlled, positive, microtopographical changes in the benthos. Individuals typically are circular to oblate and range in size from centimeters to over 2 meters in diameter. In some areas of the lake, bioherm heights were measured at more than 1.5 meters above adjacent substrate. Observations, videography, and samples of microbial bioherms from the south part of Great Salt Lake, in modern conditions of salinity averaging about 15 percent, are dark green in color, the result of an abundant surface-based phototrophic community that populates the highly rugose surface of the bioherms. Exposed shallow-water bioherms in the north part of the lake are white and not populated by either surface-based phototrophic communities or macroinvertebrate grazers. The environmental conditions in the north part of Great Salt Lake, averaging about 27 percent salinity, have exceeded the ability of bioherm-forming microbial communities to survive. Great Salt Lake provides a glimpse into what Earth was like during the first 3 billion years of its existence and before the emergence of more complex life forms. This investigation has identified how tectonics and environmental conditions influence the initiation and growth of microbially induced carbonates in saline environments and places important constraints on the conditions for microbial life during the present and during early Earth history.

description: Grandparents of grandchildren with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) remain an under researched population. This research provides grandparents a voice concerning the experience of their grandchildren with ASD in workshops that taught them the use of the 3D Google SketchUpâ„¢ software. The workshops focused on the computer strengths of the participating children. Six grandparents participated in two focus groups. Videotapes from the focus groups were transcribed verbatim and coded. Two key themes were identified from the data: reframing expectations and building communication bridges through shared interests. Grandparents perceived that their grandchildren learned  technological skills and had a positive experience, which gave them hope for future educational and employment opportunities for these grandchildren. The grandparents  perceived that the shared interests in the computer program augmented communication opportunities between themselves and their grandchildren, and with other grandparents of children with ASD. This paper addresses the challenges children with ASD and their  families experience and explores from the grandparentâ€™s viewpoint the potential benefits of social engagement around technology.

description: In recent years, a number of trends have started to emerge, both in microprocessor and application characteristics. As per Moore's law, the number of cores on chip will keep doubling every 18-24 months. International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) reports that wires will continue to scale poorly, exacerbating the cost of on-chip communication. Cores will have to navigate an on-chip network to access data that may be scattered across many cache banks. The number of pins on the package, and hence available off-chip bandwidth, will at best increase at sublinear rate and at worst, stagnate. A number of disruptive memory technologies, e.g., phase change memory (PCM) have begun to emerge and will be integrated into the memory hierarchy sooner than later, leading to non-uniform memory access (NUMA) hierarchies. This will make the cost of accessing main memory even higher. In previous years, most of the focus has been on deciding the memory hierarchy level where data must be placed (L1 or L2 caches, main memory, disk, etc.). However, in modern and future generations, each level is getting bigger and its design is being subjected to a number of constraints (wire delays, power budget, etc.). It is becoming very important to make an intelligent decision about where data must be placed within a level. For example, in a large non-uniform access cache (NUCA), we must figure out the optimal bank. Similarly, in a multi-dual inline memory module (DIMM) non uniform memory access (NUMA) main memory, we must figure out the DIMM that is the optimal home for every data page. Studies have indicated that heterogeneous main memory hierarchies that incorporate multiple memory technologies are on the horizon. We must develop solutions for data management that take heterogeneity into account. For these memory organizations, we must again identify the appropriate home for data. In this dissertation, we attempt to verify the following thesis statement: "Can low-complexity hardware and OS mechanisms manage data placement within each memory hierarchy level to optimize metrics such as performance and/or throughput?" In this dissertation we argue for a hardware-software codesign approach to tackle the above mentioned problems at different levels of the memory hierarchy. The proposed methods utilize techniques like page coloring and shadow addresses and are able to handle a large number of problems ranging from managing wire-delays in large, shared NUCA caches to distributing shared capacity among different cores. We then examine data-placement issues in NUMA main memory for a many-core processor with a moderate number of on-chip memory controllers. Using codesign approaches, we achieve efficient data placement by modifying the operating system's (OS) page allocation algorithm for a wide variety of main memory architectures.

description: The northern Lakeside Mountains and the Grassy Mountains, part of the Basin and Range province, include about 500 square miles in northwestern Utah.  The two side-by-side, north-south trending mountain ranges are located on the west side of Great Salt Lake, approximately 75 miles west of Salt Lake City, Utah.  Twenty nine formations representing all Paleozoic periods are exposed.  Included are 7,003 feet of Cambrian, 3,094 feet of Ordovician, 653 feet of Silurian, 2,462 feet of Devonian, 6,646 feet of Mississippian, 3,541 feet of Pennsylvanian, and 14,517 feet of Permian strata.  The 37,916 foot measured section and the 43,293 foot estimated thickness of strata in the area represents one of the thickest Paleozoic sections in Utah.  The northern Lakeside Mountains expose Cambrian to Pennsylvanian strata and the Grassy Mountains expose Pennsylvanian and Permian strata.  A Tertiary basalt porphyry is found in the southwestern corner of the area, and the unconsolidated Quaternary alluvial and eluvial deposits in the intermontane area, complete the exposed rock suite of the area.  Structurally the Grassy Mountains and the Lakeside Mountains are radically different.  The Lakeside Mountains show structural patterns relating to the Paleocene uplift of the Northern Utah Highland dome, of which they found the west flank.  These consist mainly of normal faults and open folds.  An uplift in the Newfoundland area rising concurrently with the Northern Utah Highland uplift compressed the intervening Grassy Mountain area, overturning, tightly folding, and thrusting the strata.  Both the Lakeside Mountains and the Grassy Mountains were later affected by Basin and Range block faulting.  Grayback Mountain, in the southwest corner of the area, represents a Tertiary fissure-type eruption.  Several related dikes are found in the Grassy Mountain area.  Several mines, comprising the Lakeside mining district, are found in the central Lakeside Mountains.  The ore deposits are fault-controlled and consist chiefly of oxidized lead and zinc materials.

Interrogating the processes by which photography has been used and abused, my project does not pursue definitive answers or reveal the "truth" of photography, but rather underlines the importance of seeing photography in a new and radicalized fashion. More than just a series of artworks, my project seeks to bring a serious discourse on photographic meaning into dialogue with diverse audiences including the fine arts, scientific community, and academia.

description: Autophagic flux is a critical cellular process that is vastly under-appreciated in terms of its importance to human health. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that reductions in autophagic flux cause cancer and exacerbate chronic diseases, including heart disease and the pathological hallmarks of dementia. Autophagic flux can be increased by targeting nutrition-related biochemical signaling. To date, translation of this knowledge has been hampered because there has been no way to directly measure autophagic flux in humans. In this study we detail a method whereby human macroautophagic/autophagic flux can be directly measured from human blood samples. We show that whole blood samples can be treated with the lysosomal inhibitor chloroquine, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells isolated from these samples could be used to measure autophagic machinery protein LC3B-II. Blocking of autophagic flux in cells while still in whole blood represents an important advance because it preserves genetic, nutritional, and signaling parameters inherent to the individual. We show this method was reproducible and defined LC3B-II as the best protein to measure autophagic flux in these cells. Finally, we show that this method is relevant to assess intra-individual variation induced by an intervention by manipulating nutrition signaling with an ex vivo treatment of whole blood that comprised leucine and insulin. Significantly, this method will enable the identification of factors that alter autophagic flux in humans, and better aid their translation in the clinic. With further research, it could also be used as a novel biomarker for risk of age-related chronic disease.

Note. Burmeister (1847: 101) describes Heteronychus tumulosus (now a synonym of Tomarus cuniculus) from “St. Domingo” and the U.S.A. He refers here to Palisot de Beauvois (1811). As explained in the first note under Tomarus bituberculatus, the “St. Domingo” mentioned by Palisot de Beauvois (1811) refers to the present country of Haiti. Given his reference, we interpret the record in Burmeister (1847) as such.

Mathematical models of memory T-cell compartment size and repertoire dynamics

subject: Repertoire

description: Immunity to infections is conferred by the immune system via memory cells, which are created when a host first encounters a virus and serve as sentinels that activate quickly to eliminate any reinfections that occur. Some memory cells secrete antibodies against  extracellular invaders, others act as coordinators of the immune response, and some-the memory CD8+ T-cells-eradicate intracellular pathogens by killing infected host cells. These latter cells are each equipped with T-cell receptors that recognize and become activated only in response to a particular virus; thus, a host must possess a broad repertoire of memory CD8+ T-cells with a range of specificities to effectively protect against viral  invasions. The breadth of the memory repertoire is constrained, however, by the fact that the number of memory CD8+ T-cells is remarkably constant between infections. Therefore, some attrition of existing memory cells is necessary following infections to make room for  new memory cells. Furthermore, some viruses induce memory attrition early in infections creating an underfilled memory compartment; cells must then proliferate to restore the memory compartment to its homeostatic size.

Graphic environments: performing ecocriticism at the confluence of image and text
Creators: name: Bealer, Adele Haverty
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2014
Subjects: Assemblage theory
Comics and graphic novels
Ecocriticism
Jacques Ranciere
New materialism
Postcolonial ecocriticism

description: My dissertation focuses on an ecocritical evaluation of environmental representation in contemporary comics and graphic novels. Ecocriticism and the graphic narrative share disciplinary similarities; both are hybrid forms that commingle seemingly incommensurable components (literature and the land, text and image), and both continue to evolve in complex and exciting ways. Using the familiar rubric of animal, vegetable, and mineral, my dissertation explores the theoretical underpinnings of ecocriticism's contemporary moment as it is illustrated in the graphic environment. Ecocriticism today is marked by an increased interest in postcolonial theory and by a posthumanist turn that has culminated in various species of speculative realism and new materialist theory. Following an introduction designed to juxtapose the development of ecocriticism with the evolving graphic and narrative conventions of comics and graphic novels, I turn in my first chapter to a postcolonial ecocritical analysis of the graphic novel. Given the confluence of aesthetics and politics in a postcolonial theory, I invoke the work of French theorist Jacques Rancière as a necessary component of my ecocritical analysis of three graphic narratives featuring animal protagonists. My second chapter provides close textual and visual readings of two graphic novels whose vegetable-human hybrid characters provide models for applying Deleuze's theory of the rhizome and Manuel DeLanda's assemblage theory to environmental representation. This chapter introduces key concepts that ground much of new materialism and serves as a bridge to my third chapter. Here, I weave together the threads of feminist materialism and object-oriented ontology in an ecocritical reading of three graphic novels that consider things from a thing's point of view. My conclusion shifts forward to an ecocritical reading of two graphic novels that provide global and local perspectives on the critical issues concerning environmental writers and theorists today, the ecological, social, and economic consequences of hyperobjects like global climate change and global financial collapse. Graphic narratives provide a uniquely effective representational medium for locating the contemporary environmental imagination and for illustrating the theoretical complexities beneath its surface. I argue that there is much work to be done at the confluence of image and text in the graphic environment.

Upper limb rehabilitation of stroke patients using Kinect and computer games
Creators: name: Pastor Acosta, Isaac
Publisher: name: University of Utah

Subjects: Kinect
Low-cost
Stroke rehabilitation

description: Stroke is a leading cause of death and adult disability in the United States. Survivors lose abilities that were controlled by the affected area of the brain. Rehabilitation therapy is administered to help survivors regain control of lost functional abilities. The number of sessions that stroke survivors attend are limited to the availability of a clinic close to their residence and the amount of time friends and family can devote to help them commute, as most are incapable of driving. Home-based therapy using virtual reality and computer games have the potential of solving these issues, increasing the amount of independent therapy performed by patients. This thesis presents the design, development and testing of a low-cost system, potentially suitable for use in the home environment. This system is designed for rehabilitation of the impaired upper limb of stroke survivors. A Microsoft Kinect was used to track the position of the patient's hand and the game requires the user to move the arm over increasing large areas by sliding the arm on a support. Studies were performed with six stroke survivors and five control subjects to determine the feasibility of the system. Patients played the game for 6 to 10 days and their game scores, range of motion and Fugl-Meyer scores were recorded for analysis. Statistically significant (p<0.05) differences were found between the game scores of the first and last day of the study. Furthermore, acceptability surveys revealed patients enjoyed playing the game, found this kind of therapy more enjoyable than conventional therapy and were willing to use the system in the home environment. Future work in the system will be focused on larger studies, improving the comfort of patients while playing the game, and developing new games that address cognitive issues and integrate art and therapy.
Isidorus Hispalensis, Etymologiae (Druck) mit Bruchstücken aus Vincentius Bellovacensis, Speculum historiale (Fragment)

description: Die beiden Fragmentblätter aus einer Handschrift aus dem 14. Jahrhundert enthalten Bruchstücke aus dem Speculum historiale des Vincentinus Bellovacensis (1190-1264). Sie dienten einem Druck aus dem Jahr 1509 mit Isidors Etymologien als Einband und wurden auch bei der Neubindung von 1920 auf dem Trägerband belassen, als dessen Vorsatz sie heute fungieren. Der Isidor-Druck selbst ist durchsetzt von zahlreichen Korrekturen einer Hand des 16. Jahrhunderts, vermutlich diente er als Druckvorlage für eine Neuauflage.

Endosymbiont transfection of the hippoboscid louse fly with bacteria from the tsetse fly and a parasitoid wasp

description: There are two not mutually exclusive theories explaining the widespread presence of symbiotic bacteria belonging to the same Arsenophonus clade. Both the environmental progenitor model and lateral symbiont transfer theories have gathered some evidence. My aim was to find out whether experimental lateral transfer of secondary symbionts was possible between three different insectbacterium systems. The louse fly (Pseudolynchia canariensis), normally carrying Arsenophonus arthropodicus, was used as a test host and pupae were infected by microinjecting secondary symbionts of the tsetse fly (Glossina sp.) and the parasitoid wasp (Nasonia vitripennis). The co-injected Kanamycin-resistant strain of A. arthropodicus served as control and qRT-PCR was used to quantify bacterium cell numbers in pupae and flies. I found that microinjection resulted in stable colonization of pupae. The exogenous bacteria survived eclosion and were propagated to the next (F1) generation. The microinjection method decreased survival rates of pupae, and injection of S. glossinidius in particular decreased survival even further, and shifted the sex ratio of eclosed flies. Native symbiont colony size changes were minimal. As exogenous symbiont colonization prevalence and size decreased greatly by the second generation (F2), the colonization was not self-perpetuating. Unless the new endosymbionts grant a very fitness advantage to the hosts, they are not expected to survive any host defense mechanisms. Since colonization of injected pupae, eclosed flies and transmission to the first non-injected generation did occur, these results lend further experimental evidence that lateral symbiont transfer is not physiologically impossible, at least initially. The methods utilized in this study may be effectively used to further study lateral symbiont transfer and exogenous symbiont colonization of insects.
