description: Current environmental resource management policies acknowledge the need to manage and conserve biodiversity. Sustaining good ecosystem conditions and ecosystem services (ES) is imperative at and across multiple spatial scales. The ES concept is a valuable tool to communicate the benefits that nature provides to people. In the Guiana Shield, neighbouring countries share landscapes and ecosystems, and therefore also the services they supply. This study presents the first spatial ES assessments at territorial level for Suriname and French Guiana. Expert-based ES supply matrices were used and analysed in combination with Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) data to compile ES capacity maps for the two territories. In comparison, both ES supply matrices showed a high degree of similarity – forest ecosystems scored the highest ES capacities, followed by aquatic and marine ecosystems. Agricultural and urban land cover showed weak to moderate capacities for ES supply. A statistical analysis revealed a 30% difference of the two matrix assessments. Expert scores given for ES in Suriname exceeded those in French Guiana, especially for urban LULC and planted forests. Sociodemographic factors such as age, gender and institutional environment were analysed to explain this difference. The diverging scores can also be attributed to the distribution and the degree of similarity of the different LULC types and, hence, ES capacities and different governance and institutional contexts of the assessments. Comparative evaluations are essential to understand the differences in perception of ES supply capacities and to underpin future knowledge-based bilateral conservation policies and funding decisions by governments and managers.

Functional and biochemical studies of the Vps4 ATPase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

MVB

description: The multivesicular body (MVB) is a late endosomal compartment containing intralumenal vesicles enriched with a subset of transmembrane cargoes that form as a result of the inward budding of the endosomal limiting  membrane. In Sacchoromyces cerevisiae ESCRT (endosomal sorting complexes required for transport) machinery, consisting of distinct protein complexes  ESCRT-0, I, II and III, together with the AAA+ (ATPases associate with the variety of cellular activities) Vps4 (vacuolar protein sorting 4) ATPase are responsible for the MVB sorting. Solubilization of ESCRTs by the active Vps4 oligomer is thought to be the final step in the biogenesis of MVB.  Vps4 consists of N-terminal ESCRT-III-interacting MIT (microtubule interaction and trafficking) domain, C-terminal nucleotide ATPase domain and the linker region that connects them. Function of the Vps4 is regulated through its recruitment from the cytoplasm through a complex network of interactions with  ESCRT-III-associtaed proteins Did2, Ist1, Vta1 and Vps60 to the endosomeassociated ESCRT-III consisting of Vps20, Snf7, Vps2 and Vps24 where Vps4 assembles into an active oligomer. ATPase domains of Vps4 subunits promote oligomerization into closed rings and two stacked rings form an active Vps4 oligomer that contains a functionally important central cavity. Position of the MIT domains in the oligomer varies, suggesting that function of the active Vps4 oligomer might require flexibility in movement of the MIT domains.  In Chapter 2, we have perfomed a detailed in vivo analysis of the interactions that mediate recruitment of Vps4 to ESCRT-III. Our data revealed a  high degree of redundancy in the Vps4 interaction network. In our model, we propose that interactions with Did2 and Ist1 recruit Vps4 from cytoplasm to  ESCRT-III and subsequent interaction with Vta1 promotes formation of an active Vps4 ATPase. We speculate that two rings that comprise active Vps4 oligomer have different functions - one ring is important for the ATP hydrolysis and substrate processing by Vps4, whereas the second ring is not directly involved in  the ATP hydrolysis and serves a regulatory role.  In Chapter 3, we have investigated if MIT domains need to be tucked away from the central cavity of the active Vps4 oligomer to allow processing of a substrate. We performed detailed functional and biochemical analysis of the serial deletions within the linker region. In our model, we propose that MIT domains are positioned around the central cavity region and cooperate together  in solubilization of a substrate.

Stress and coping in the siblings of children with cance.

Subjects: Adaptation, Psychological

description: This study was developed from a clinical curiosity about what children do and think in an effort to cope with the stressors imposed on them since the diagnosis of cancer in their brother or sister. Theories on stress and coping were reviewed. Although none of the theories specifically addressed or researched the issue of stress and coping in children, the stress, appraisal, and coping theory described by researchers was selected for its comprehensive treatment of the subject. A review of the psychosocial literature on pediatric oncology revealed a number of studies identifying the stressors and stress responses (primarily maladaptive outcomes) for the siblings. There was a paucity of research on the actual coping efforts employed by children and no research on the appraisal process. The present study was designed to qualitatively explore the cognitive and behavioral coping efforts used by a selected sample of siblings of cancer patients in three different treatment phases (induction, remission, and relapse). Data were collected from parent interview, parent questionnaire, two sibling interviews, sibling cartoon storytelling, and a sibling Sentence Completion Test. All data were subjected to content analysis. The parent data identified themes of stress relating to anger, ambivalence, gratitude, and denial. Sibling data revealed major stressor themes of loss, fear of death, and change. Further, content analysis of sibling data pertinent to coping efforts led to the development of a taxonomy of cognitive and behavioral coping efforts. The taxonomy consisted of 6 domains, 12 themes, and 33 categories of coping efforts. The taxonomy is considered to be a tentative beginning for a line of investigations on the coping process in children. The results of this study support findings from previous studies which identified the sibling's major stressors. Coping efforts identified in three previous studies were also identified in this study. The findings from this study suggest that appropriate Nursing; interventions should be based on a thorough assessment of the individual's perspective of the illness experience. Future research needs to be designed to evaluate the entire process of stress, appraisal, and coping not just the separate parts of the process.
SURFACE FUNCTIONALIZATION OF COLLOIDAL NANOPARTICLES THROUGH LIGAND EXCHANGE REACTIONS

description: Surface functionalization of metallic nanoparticles is an attractive route to tailor the ensemble geometry and redox properties of active sites in heterogeneous catalysts. However, it is challenging to generate well-defined interfaces through conventional impregnation and one-pot colloidal synthesis methods. In this work, we utilize ligand exchange reactions for post synthetic surface modification of colloidal nanoparticles to generate unique core-shell and surface alloy structures. We use halometallate and metal chalcogenide complexes to create surface sites that are active for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). We synthesize a self-limiting monolayer of metal chalcogenides on colloidal Au nanoparticles through biphasic ligand exchange reaction between ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (NH4)2MoS4 complex and Au nanoparticles. Through a combination of spectroscopy techniques and computational methods, we show that strong Au-S interactions introduce electronic and geometric distortion to the geometry and bond metrics of MoS42- complex. Moreover, proximal MoS4 units adsorbed on the Au surface interlink to form small MoSx oligomers with highly active bridging disulfide sites. Consequently, these core-shell AuMoS4 nanoparticles exhibit significantly higher HER activity than MoS42- supported on non-interacting carbon supports under highly acidic electrolyte conditions. Although post catalysis characterization reveals partial hydrolysis of surface adsorbed MoSx species, stable HER activity under bulk electrolysis condition indicates that active sites remain persistent. In an effort to extend these ligand exchange reactions to create metal/metal interfaces on other coinage metal nanoparticles such as Ag, we design metal-ligand coordination complexes to mitigate undesired galvanic replacement reactions. By varying the strength and number of coordinating ligands, we fine-tune the redox potential of oxidized noble metal precursors and confine the deposition of noble metals to a few surface layers of the Ag nanoparticles. We utilize organic amine and phosphine ligands to generate Ag@AgM core-shell nanoparticles, where M = Pd, Pt, and Au. Surface alloy or pure metal shells of Pd and Pt on Ag nanoparticles generated through this ligand-based strategy exhibited high precious metal atom utilization in electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction.

description: The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of milk removal as a method of reducing the discomfort of postpartum breast engorgement in non-breastfeeding women.  Because of a small sample, statistical inference is not possible.  The results suggest that the mechanical removal of milk is an effective way to increase the comfort and decrease the symptoms of engorgement in women who do not breastfeed their infants. The course ob breast involution was followed in 13 women representing the study sample.  Minimal engorgement was experienced by 46% of the subjects.  They required only a supportive bra to maintain comfort.  A control group (N=3) who experienced engorgement and followed standard management practice was compared to an experimental group (N=4) who used a hand operated breast pump to relieve engorgement symptoms. Tissue resistance was measured in the lactiferous sinuses using the Pressure Gauge Model P-101.  Subjective data were recorded concerning harness, discomfort and leakage of milk in the breast.  The subjects in the experimental group experienced a shorter, more comfortable course of breast involution.  They took no analgesia nor used any other treatment for breast discomfort.  There was no evidence of rebound engorgement or lactation stimulation.  Other findings not addressed by study questions were described using data collected from the control group.  A general pattern of engorgement was described:  following an onset the second postpartum day, severe engorgement was sustained for three days with a gradual return to normal on the ninth day.  By correlating ht measurements taken  with the pressure gauge with clinical symptoms, breast engorgement was categorized according to severity.

Gender disparity in engineering fields: an analysis of historic data, and school counselors' knowledge, values and attitudes

description: This dissertation investigates the gender disparity in the engineering related fields through three studies. The first study investigates the role of interest in the gender disparity through ACT data over a 30 year period. This study indicated that female interest in engineering related fields has consistently been much lower over this period of time than it has been for male students. Further, results indicate that those who do express interest in engineering related fields are often under prepared. The second study investigated the role of Utah school counselors in the gender disparity. A survey was conducted that established a clear difference between what Utah school counselors believed to be the values and personality characteristics of an engineer based on gender. The last study used this information to inform a nationally distributed vignette that determined that it is likely that school counselors work with students may differ based on the student's gender and perceived personality attributes. This information seems to confirm the need for continued education for both educators and students as to biases and stereotypes that may be influencing female interest in engineering related fields.

Note. Moore et al. (2018b) list two species of the tribe Cyclocephalini for the Guianas that we regard as not occurring in the research area and which have, to our knowledge, also not been reported for any place close to the research area. For each of these species, Moore et al. (2018b) only cite Gruner (1971) as a source for the Guianas. These species are:
Cyclocephala confusa Endrödi, 1966a (p. 174), which is mentioned in Moore et al. (2018b: 163) and copied from Gruner (1971: 845), who lists it for French Guiana. Given that this species seems otherwise restricted to Central America and northwestern South America, the specimen on which this record is based is likely misidentified in Gruner (1971);
Erioscelis emarginata (Mannerheim, 1829) (p. 54), which is mentioned in Moore et al. (2018b: 276) and copied from Gruner (1971: 846), who lists it for French Guiana. This species has otherwise never been recorded from the research area and it seems likely that the specimen recorded by Gruner (1971) was misidentified.
We have not included these two species in the species accounts.

Molecular and functional properties of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor
Creators: name: Sudweeks, Sterling Noble
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2012
Subjects: GABA - Receptors

description: ?-gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian central nervous system. The GABA-A receptor is a ligand gated chloride channel and is one of the major targets for GABA released in the synapse. The receptor is thought to be formed as a pentameric combination of different GABA-A receptor subunits. Currently 15 possible subunits have been cloned and sequenced, as well as a significant number of splice variants of those subunits. The subunit, or molecular, composition of the GABA-A receptor determines its functional properties. Although some of this relationship between molecular composition and functional properties has been studied, the physiological ramifications of seemingly limitless possible combinations of different subunits has much left to be defined. In this study, the molecular and functional properties of GABA-A receptors are studied using single cell reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to determine the subunit expression in individual cells in combination with patch clamp electrophysiological recordings to define the functional receptor characteristics. The design, optimization, and examination of a single cell RT-PCR protocol for its effectiveness in detecting the expression of GABA-A subunit mRNA, and its use in conjunction with patch clamp recording are discussed herein. Briefly, it was found that a nested PCR approach using primers capable of amplifying families of subunits in the first round of PCR, and subunit specific primers in the second round, was necessary to achieve sufficient detection sensitivity. Multiple primer pairs are used in the first round of the nested PCR as a multiplex PCR reaction to amplify all of the GABA-A receptor subunits of interest. The type I and type II error rates for this single cell RT-PCR protocol are experimentally determined and methods of improving the statistical power are discussed. Single cell RT-PCR was also performed in conjunction with ultrafast ligand exchange patch clamp recordings in an effort to correlate molecular (subunit expression) and functional GABA-A receptor properties in cultured fetal mouse cortical neurons. Neurons that had similar functional responses also had similar RT-PCR results. From the data obtained, it appears that subunit mRNA expression and receptor function are related in neurons in primary culture.

The bridge was built in 2009, using accelerated bridge construction practices, including the use of precast prestressed girders, as well as precast decking. The westbound bridge decking was composed of 12 precast panels each measuring 41'-5" long,  6'-10" wide, and 9¼" thick, and weighing approximately 33 kips. At the time, these panels were the longest GFRP panels in the United States.  The Utah Department of Transportation has decided to evaluate GFRP reinforcing bars as an alternative to steel rebar in this bridge deck. The hope is to increase the  lifespan of bridge decks to match the service life of the entire bridge. Due to the nature of the GFRP bars, the panels were lifted at four points using straps instead of imbedded anchors. During the four-point lifting, the panels exhibited small deflections and strains;  furthermore, no cracks larger than hairline cracks were found in the panels after lifting.  The Beaver Creek Bridge deck is the first precast deck in the state of Utah to be posttensioned in the direction of traffic. Posttensioning bridge decks is expected to  become the norm in the state of Utah. The posttensioning resulted in increased continuity  between panels.  In order to quantify the expected performance of the bridge during its service life, a truck load test was performed. The truck load test was comprised of a static and dynamic test. During the truck load test, the bridge experienced deflections in the panels which were 93% below design values. Girder deflections were also small.  The use of GFRP bars has the potential to extend the life of bridge decks exposed to deicing salts from 45 years to 100 years, while only requiring an increased capital cost in the bridge of 8%. Furthermore, the use of GFRP bars in conjunction with accelerated building practices has the potential to reduce long-term user delays resulting from maintenance. The difference in capital cost could decrease as designers become more  comfortable with the material and gain experience with the system.
title: Microbial degradation of crude oils

Publisher: name: University of Kent

description: The microbial degradation of two crude mineral oils and one synthetic crude oil was studied under In situ estuarine conditions and in the laboratory. The three oils differed widely in composition; the Athabasca synthetic crude was a light oil with a high saturate content, conversely its parent sand tar was a heavy oil low in saturates. The North Sea Forties crude represented an intermediate between these two extremes. A new environmental experimental system was devised to yield quantitative data on oil degradation and this was deployed in the Medway estuary under both winter and summer conditions between December 1976 and July 1978. During both winter and summer experiments oil composition had a major influence on the rate and extent of oil loss which followed the order, synthetic crude > Forties crude > sand tar. This order conforms to predictions made on the basis of the fractional composition of the oils. The saturate fraction of the Forties crude and sand tar was most extensively degraded during the second summer experiment. Temperature rather than inorganic nutrient supply appeared to limit degradation during the winter months; degradation was more rapid during the summer months. Microbial colonization of the oils was predominantly bacterial and was more rapid during the summer. The overall colonization pattern however was similar for each oil throughout both winter and summer experiments . The laboratory experiments using supplemented media broadly confirmed the degradation patterns found during the in situ experiments. However, higher initial degradation rates for all the oils were found at 25°C in supplemented medium than those occurring in the in situ summer experiments. The laboratory- experiments also revealed the interesting phenomena of novel hydrocarbon synthesis and the occurrence of intracellular hydrocarbon inclusions during growth on the Forties crude and synthetic crude respectively.

description: In the field of the second language acquisition, a number of studies have investigated the phenomenon of linguistic input to L2 learners in order to determine its role in the process of acquiring a target language. In classroom settings, such input is provided by the L2 teacher speech to nonnative speakers of the second language. Research indicates that teacher talk (TT) directed to L2 learners is characterized by discourse, syntactic, lexical, and phonological modifications. However, only a few  studies provide evidence about the effects of TT phonetic/phonological adjustments on the nonnative comprehension.  In the present study, nonnative listeners participated in an auditory sentence-final keyword transcription task for teacher talk and conversational speech. Results revealed  that NNSs exhibited a significant main effect of speech type, with teacher talk more intelligible than conversational speech. However, the pattern of results in this study showed that the magnitude of speech type benefit differs depending on different levels of various factors such as level of learner proficiency, talker, and sentential context;. The results from this study are interpreted in terms of their implications for providing  comprehensible input to L2 learners in order to assist their language acquisition.

description: This dissertation deals with the use of the Princeton Transport Code groundwater flow model, to simulate groundwater flow in the Erdemli, Mersin, Turkey area. Erdemli is located in southern Turkey and is a coastal area, which has agricultural and tourist uses.
For the correct simulation of the underground flow, the appropriate data processing was performed in order to insert them in the PTC model. Programs used for editing are Microsoft Excel and ArcGIS. The values ​​were edited and sorted in Microsoft Excel for an easier data comprehension. ArcGIS was used to edit maps and present informational tables for input values ​​to the model. In the present study 22 wells were imported to the PTC model, which include data on hydraulic heads and pumping rates, for the period 2003-2008. Then, the precipitation data for the respective years were entered into the model, as well as the altitude equivalents of the study area. Then, for the geology of the area, the hydraulic conductivity was introduced. Finally, the values ​​of the northern and southern boundaries conditions were introduced and the model was calibrated.
The elaboration of the present dissertation aims, through the modeling of the aquifer, to simulate the hydraulic heads of the aquifer as well as to capture the water flow.

Epidermal Growth Factor-Urogastone

description: Occupancy-induced downregulation of cell surface epidermal growth factor receptors (EGF-R) attenuates signal transduction. To define mechanisms through which downregulation of this class of growth factor receptors occurs, I have investigated the relative roles of ligand-induced internalization and recycling in this process. Occupied, kinase-active EGF receptors were internalized through a ligand induced, high affinity, endocytic system at rates up to 10-fold faster than empty receptors. In contrast, full length EGF receptors lacking tyrosine kinase activity underwent internalization at a rate independent of occupancy. This "kinase-independent" internalization rate appeared to reflect constitutive receptor internalization since it was similar to the internalization rate of both receptors lacking a cytoplasmic domain and of antibodies bound to empty receptors. EGF internalized by either kinase-active or kinase-inactive receptors was efficiently recycled and was found within endosomes containing recycling transferrin receptors. However, targeting of internalized receptors to lysosomes did not require receptor kinase activity. Targeting of internalized receptors to lysosomes was also independent of the domain required for ligand-induced internalization since receptors truncated at amino acid (a.a.) 958 were efficiently targeted to the lysosomes. The truncation at a.a. 958 eliminates a domain of the receptor required for ligand induced internalization. However, targeting to the lysosomes was dependent upon a domain between a.a.647-688 of the receptor. Receptors truncated at a.a.647 were unable to target to the lysosomes while those receptors extended to amino acid 688 were capable of lysosomal transfer. Only receptors that displayed ligand-induced internalization underwent downregulation, indicating that the proximal cause of downregulation is occupancy-induced endocytosis.

description: Glial cells are the most numerous cells of the central nervous system (CNS) and play various important roles in regulating appropriate neuronal function. Glial cells and neurons arise from common multipotent progenitors, and understanding their lineage relationships and fate determination is an important challenge in developmental biology. This dissertation addresses several aspects of the biology of spinal cord gliogenesis. First, methods were described for isolation of purified neural precursor cells, including glial restricted precursor (GRP) cells, from the embryonic spinal cord. Second, an immortalized GRP cell line was created by infecting purified GRP cells with regulatable v-myc retroviruses. This immortalized cell line, like normal GRP cells, can differentiate into oligodendrocytes and astrocytes with appropriate signals. This GRP cell line will provide a large population of homogeneous cells for the study of molecular mechanisms underlying glial differentiation and for clinical applications such as drug screening and optimization of transplantation protocol. Third, to extend our understanding of glial lineage relationships in the context of normal embryogenesis, the spatiotemporal expression patterns of several glial markers were examined using in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Finally, to determine how different glial fates are determined from GRP cells, the transcription factors Hes1 and Hes5 were overexpressed in cultured GRP cells by retroviral infection and the fate of infected cells was analyzed. The results show that Hes1, but not Hes5, plays an important role in regulating the astrocyte versus oligodendrocyte fate choice in GRP cells. Taken together, these results provide novel insights into the process of glial differentiation and make available tools to further dissect the process of gliogenesis.

description: Members of The Embassy of Good Science have developed a set of eight scenarios for educational purposes and to stimulate strategic thinking about issues in research ethics and research integrity. This scenario presents a hypothetical narrative that addresses specific ways in which training, supervision and mentoring practices can undermine the standards of research integrity. It focuses on issues regarding: The obligations of research ethics committee members when it comes to their knowledge of different disciplinary designs, methodologies and analytical tools; The obligations to promote and provide training in different research integrity guidelines and standards; The relationships between discipline-specific, institutional and national codes of conduct; The navigation of the differences between discipline-specific, institutional and national codes of conduct; Allegations of conflicts of interest; The duties and obligations of project coordinators and principal investigators. It is interspersed with questions and resource suggestions that help guide researchers, research ethics committees ('RECs'), research integrity offices ('RIOs') and research administrators in their deliberations concerning the research integrity issues raised by the narrative.
