title: Local and landscape-scale data describing patterns of coastal wetland loss in the Texas Chenier Plain, U.S.A.

description: We characterized coastal wetland responses to flooding stress by measuring vegetation cover, wetland elevation and water elevation in healthy and degrading wetlands dominated by Spartina patens. Wetland elevation was measured using real-time kinematic survey methods. Vegetation cover was determined by visual estimation methods, and water elevation was measured using in situ continuous recorders. In addition to these local-scale responses, we also measured landscape-scale patterns of land and water aggregation or fragmentation using remotely sensed data (Jones et al., 2018).

title: Perennial species canopy cover across grazed/ungrazed fencelines at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1986-ongoing

description: This ongoing data set contains percent canopy cover estimates of perennial plant species from transects that cross a grazed/ungrazed boundary fenceline of a single exclosure on the New Mexico State University Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center in Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA. In the spring of 1982, as part of the establishment of the Jornada Long-Term Ecological Research site in southern New Mexico, a 135 ha portion of a 1500 ha, internally drained, watershed was exclosed from grazing by domestic livestock. Prior to exclosure the watershed, as well as the rest of the Jornada basin, had been moderately to heavily grazed for the past 100 years. Concurrent with grazing, the vegetation had undergone a dramatic change from desert grassland, with an almost continuous cover of C4 perennial grasses, to isolated patches of the original grassland in a mosaic with desert shrub dominated plant communities (Buffington and Herbel, 1965). The exclosure lies along a northeast facing piedmont slope at the base of a steep isolated mountain peak, and covers a variety of component landforms from the foot of the mountain to the basin floor. This provided the opportunity to investigate the response of vegetation with respect to landscape characteristics as well as release from grazing. This summary data set consists of percent canopy cover of all perennial plant species from the plant line intercept measurements on either side of the LTER-I exclosure East and West boundary fence. Sampling occurs approximately every five years; it was last conducted in November 2015 and will take place again in 2020.

title: Methanolysis and analysis of isophthalic acid in PET resin by gas chromatography

description: Isophthalic acid (IPA) has been used to help improve the properties of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and in the production process precise amount of IPA to be added into PET resin must be known. However, the only known quantitative monitoring of the concentration of IPA in PET resin is the FTIR analysis which is an inhouse method and time consuming. In this research a gas chromatographic method for the quantitative analysis of IPA has been proposed. In this method the IPA was quantified by dissolving the PET resin in methanol in the presence of base catalyst in a micro-reactor and the resulting methyl ester was analyzed using diethylphthalate as an internal standard. The results indicated that the gas chromatographic method was more accurate than the FTIR method. Moreover, the analysis of IPA in PET resin was carried out within a short time.

title: Pseudo single phase base-catalyst transesterification of palm stearin to biodiesel

description: To study the production of biodiesel fuel from palm stearin and methanol with transesterification carried out in a batch reactor by using 6:1 methanol/ oil molar ratio, 1wt% potassium hydroxide as homogeneous catalyst and various cosolvent such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), MTBE and dimethyl ether (DEE). Cosolvents were used to reduce the reaction time and costs in biodiesel production. It has been found that the suitable condition for biodiesel production were 60 oC reaction temperature, 250 rpm stirring rate, 10 minutes reaction time with tetrahydrofuran as cosolvent (THF/methanol molar ratio 0.2). At these conditions, the maximum methyl ester content in the product was 97.6% by weight. In the same condition but absence of cosolvent case methyl ester concentration was 93.5 wt%. Therefore addition of cosolvent in the biodiesel production can reduce energy and reaction time.

title: Canopy cover for 9 perennial plant taxa across grazed/ungrazed fencelines at the Jornada Basin LTER, 1982-ongoing

description: This ongoing data set contains percent canopy cover estimates of 6 perennial plant species and 3 genera from transects that cross a grazed/ungrazed boundary fenceline of a single exclosure on the New Mexico State University Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center in Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA. In the spring of 1982, as part of the establishment of the Jornada Long-Term Ecological Research site in southern New Mexico, a 135 ha portion of a 1500 ha, internally drained, watershed was exclosed from grazing by domestic livestock. Prior to exclosure the watershed, as well as the rest of the Jornada basin, had been moderately to heavily grazed for the past 100 years.

This provided the opportunity to investigate the response of vegetation with respect to landscape characteristics as well as release from grazing. This data set is limited to 6 perennial species and 3 genera because of the limited taxonomic resolution of the initial sampling in 1982. See data package knb-lter-jrn.210120001 for a dataset that contains all perennial species encountered but begins in 1986 instead of 1982. Sampling occurs approximately every five years; it was last conducted in November 2015 and will take place again in 2020.

title: Fate and transport of carbofuran under application in rice field by application of root zone water quality model (RZWQM)

description: Most of the land in Khon Kaen Province, located in Northeast Thailand, is used for agricultural purposes and, therefore, contains fertilizers and pesticides. These additives may have harmful impacts on ecosystems and human health. One of the widely used pesticides is carbofuran. It is used to control soil-dwelling and foliar-feeding insects e.g. boll weevils, mosquitoes, and white grubs. This study illustrates the fate and transport of carbofuran in rice field using the Root Zone Water Quality Model (RZWQM). The concentrations of the pesticide under several different agricultural management scenarios were determined. In ten years simulation from 1999 to 2008, the overestimated concentration of residual carbofuran was equal to 32.80 kg/ha at the end of year 2008. Using a sensitivity analysis, it was determined that soil subsurface aerobic and abiotic system significantly have impact on dissipation/degradation of carbofuran in soil. Other parameters, which have effects on carbofuran concentration in soil, include the number of pesticide applications, soil hydraulics, and type and amount of water source. The pesticide can rapidly transport into soil profile that mainly caused by water leaching.

title: Satisfaction of the elderly after complete dentures insertion on upper and lower arch at Jaturapakpiman district, Roi Et province, Thailand

description: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 270 elderly patients who got complete dentures from Jaturapakpiman district hospital, Roi-et Province, Thailand. The study had 3 objectives: (1) To determine satisfaction of the elderly after complete denture insertion related to oral health impact profile (OHIP) and questions related to satisfaction of upper and lower denture; (2) To assess the oral hygiene behavior and denture care after the complete denture insertion; (3) To identify the factors associated with satisfaction and oral health impact after denture insertion. Dental nurses and interviewers were trained to administer the standardized questionnaire, Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP) 14 questions and 14 questions related to satisfaction of upper and lower denture were use for measurement tool, Data collection was conducted in February and March 2010, by face-to-face questionnaire interviews. Frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations were used to describe demographic data, oral hygienic behaviors and denture care. To assess associations between dependent and independent variables, Spearman correlation, Mann-Whitney U tests, and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used. The average age was 71.55 years, 140 persons were male (51.9%). Married patients were 157 persons (58.1%). 69.3% were primary education. 80.0% of patients were in agriculture and their family income were less than 1,000 baht/month (64.8%), OHIP and satisfaction scores were positively and significantly correlated (Spearman rho = 0.669, p&lt;0.001). Gender and educational level were generally statistically significantly associated with OHIP and satisfaction scored (p&lt;0.05), but directions of these associations were not regular. Whisky drinking was generally associated with lower scores; the opposite was true for carbonated beverage drinking. Smoking was consistently and significantly associated with lower scores. Using water to clean dentures was associated with lower scores. Removing and soaking dentures in water showed different directions of association with different scores. Unexpectedly, not removing dentures at bedtime was associated with higher satisfaction scores. Previous use of dentures was associated with higher satisfaction scores. Further research is needed to explain why some observed associations were not regular, or showed unexpected directions. Recommendation in tooth loss protection for the elderly, oral health promotion and prevention, oral hygiene instruction and oral health education. And methods of denture care; handle dentures with great care to avoid accidentally dropping them, brush and rinse dentures daily, clean with a denture cleaner.

title: Molecuar characterization and evolution of influenza A virus (H1N1, H3N2 and H5N1) in Thailand

description: Influenza virus infection is a major public health problem of global concerns. In this study, human influenza (H1N1 and H3N2) and avian influenza (H5N1) viruses isolated in Thailand were studied. This study consists of 3 parts. Firstly, a specific and sensitive one-step multiplex real-time RT-PCR was developed in two assays for typing influenza A and influenza B virus and subtyping H1, H3 and H5 influenza A virus. These assays have high sensitivity, high specificity and high accuracy. Second, the complete genome of seasonal influenza A virus from Thailand in 2006 to 2008 subtypes H1N1 (n=5) and H3N2 (n=13) were selected for molecular evolution analyses. Phylogenetic analysis of the HA and NA genes formed seasonal clusters and closely related to the WHO recommended vaccine strains in each season. Antigenic sites characterization, Nlinked glycosylation pattern in surface gene and selection pressure were studied. Moreover, H5N1 isolated in Thailand between 2004 and 2008 were also studied on the molecular evolution. Phylogenetic analysis among Thai isolates indicated that clade 1 viruses in Thailand consist of three distinct lineages: CUK2-like, PC168-like, and PC170- like viruses. In 2008, viruses reassorted from these two lineages, PC168-like and PC170- like viruses, were initially isolated in the lower northern provinces of Thailand and subsequently spread to the upper central part of Thailand. On the other hand, CUK2-like viruses were still detected around the lower northern and the upper central part of Thailand. The substitution rate among clade 1 viruses in Thailand was low. Third, H5N1 viral quasispecies in tiger were detected at position 627 in PB2 viral protein by using clonal sequencing. Quasispecies between lysine and glutamic acid at this position just found only one tiger in trachea organ. The viral genome quasispecies perform by high resolution genomic sequencing needs further study.

title: Effects of fillers on physical property and biodegradability of poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)

description: Blends of PBAT and PLA filled with hydrophilic silica, hydrophobic silica and calcium carbonate nanoparticles were prepared by twin screw extruder and compression molding with fillers content at 1, 3 and 6 phr. Effects of fillers on morphology was investigated by SEM from which better distribution of the PBAT dispersed phase in PLA matrix was found in polymer blend nanocomposite. The incorporation of fillers increased the tensile strength, tensile modulus and elongation resulted from enhanced interfacial compatibility. DSC thermograms indicated that the crystallization rate was enhanced by fillers. DMA results revealed the storage modulus imparted by fillers. The permeatability by WVTR of PBAT/PLA blends was decreased by fillers addition. The light transmittance of PBAT/PLA blends was decreased by the addition of fillers. The biodegradability test using by Proteinase K method of PBAT/PLA blends decreased by fillers addition. After the enzymatic degradation, pores were widely distributed on the surface of the films. The filler hampered enzymatic degradation.
