title: Land use impacts poison frog chemical defenses through changes in leaf litter ant communities

description: Much of the world’s biodiversity is held within tropical rainforests, which are increasingly fragmented by agricultural practices. In these threatened landscapes, there are many organisms that acquire chemical defenses from their diet and are therefore intimately connected with their local food webs. Poison frogs (Family Dendrobatidae) are one such example, as they acquire alkaloid-based chemical defenses from their diet of leaf litter ants and mites. It is currently unknown how habitat fragmentation impacts chemical defense across trophic levels, from arthropods to frogs. We examined the chemical defenses and diet of the Diablito poison frog (<i>Oophaga sylvatica</i>), and the diversity of their leaf litter ant communities in secondary forest and reclaimed cattle pasture. Notably, this research was performed in collaboration with two high school science classrooms. We found that the leaf litter of forest and pasture frog habitats differed significantly in ant community structure. We also found that forest and pasture frogs differed significantly in diet and alkaloid profiles, where forest frogs contained more of specific alkaloids and ate more ants in both number and volume. Finally, ant species composition of frog diets resembled the surrounding leaf litter, but diets were less variable. This suggests that frogs tend to consume particular ant species within each habitat. To better understand how ants contribute to the alkaloid chemical profiles of frogs, we chemically profiled several ant species and found some alkaloids to be common across many ant species while others are restricted to a few species. At least one alkaloid (<b>223H</b>) found in ants from disturbed sites was also found in skins from pasture frogs. Our experiments are the first to link anthropogenic land use changes to dendrobatid poison frog chemical defenses through variation in leaf litter communities, which has implications for conservation management of these threatened amphibians.

title: Test of the prey-attraction hypothesis for the scorpion fluorescence

description: A striking feature of most scorpion species is fluorescence under ultraviolet light, but few studies have investigated the adaptive benefit of this trait. A hypothesis is that fluorescence may lure prey towards the scorpion improving foraging success. In this study, we investigated whether the fluorescence of the scorpion <i>Centruroides granosus</i> Thorell, 1876 lures the house cricket <i>Acheta domesticus</i> Linnaeus, 1758. We performed two experiments: 1) an arena in which crickets were exposed to both fluorescing and black-painted non-fluorescing scorpions and 2) a tunnel in which crickets could walk out through one of the two exits, each with a scorpion treatment. None of the experiments provided evidence that the scorpion fluorescence is attractive to house crickets since they did not show preference for any of the two scorpion types. Variables such as cricket sex or scorpion sex did not influence their response towards the fluorescence; however, crickets were on average closer to male scorpions in the outdoor arena and closer to female scorpions in the laboratory arenas. Moreover, male crickets were more active than females in the tunnel experiment, in line with the results of the arena experiment showing that male crickets were on average closer to the scorpions in the laboratory. We discuss potential implications and suggest that more experimental work is required to investigate potential adaptive benefits of the scorpion fluorescence under various biotic and abiotic factors.

title: Land use land cover change of Sundarbans mangrove from 1975 to 2020

description: This study aims to explore the land use (LULC) change over time in the world’s largest mangrove forest, Sundarbans, from 1975 to 2020 using Landsat Satellite images. The accuracy of the LULC classification is explored, and consequential thematic changes analysed. Standard methods for radiometric calibration, atmospheric correction, mosaicking effect mitigation, and rectification are used. The maximum likelihood classification algorithm provided LULC maps at four time periods over 45 years (1975, 1990, 2005, and 2020).

title: Parkes observations for project P1124 semester 2021OCTS_04

description: The progenitors of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) have been highly debated in past decade. The discovery of a bright radio burst from a Galactic magnetar, SGR 1935+2154, implies that some of faint FRBs can originate from normal magnetars. A recent short gamma-ray bursts (GRB 200415A) from a nearby galaxy turned out to be caused by magnetar giant flare. If a fraction of SGRBs and repeating FRBs share similar magnetars as progenitors, we could expect to detect fast radio transients from some suspicious magnetar-driven SGRBs. Here we propose to observe two sources with possible magnetar progenitors, in particular, a total observing time of 32 hours is requested. If detections made, we would confirm the association of progenitors of both FRBs and SGRBs and directly uncover the origin of extragalactic FRBs for at least one population.

title: Parkes observations for project P1054 semester 2021OCTS_09

description: With this proposal we ask time to continue our timing follow-up campaign of pulsars discovered with the MeerKAT telescope. Nine sources have been discovered in targeted observations of Fermi unidentified point sources, three in the Small Magellanic Cloud, 34 in Globular Clusters and six in a survey of the Galactic plane. Excluding GC sources (too dim to be followed up in the framework of this proposal), at least 12 new discoveries are recycled pulsars, one possibly with a neutron star companion, and two more have spin periods around 70 ms, making them potential mildly recycled or young pulsars. Timing observations have an essential role in exploiting the full potential of any pulsar discovery, allowing the precise measurement of rotational, astrometric and orbital parameters which, in turn, give us powerful tools to improve our understanding of the physics in extreme environments as well as of the population of neutron stars as a whole. The UWL receiver of the Parkes telescope is a sensitive, versatile instrument that is allowing us to successfully time these new sources, in the bright-end of TRAPUM discoveries. The UWL has also the unique advantage of allowing detailed studies of the eclipses of the so-called 'spider' pulsars, which make up about 1/3rd of the sources we aim at following-up with this project.

title: Pecan Island Terracing (ME-14): 2018 Land-Water Classification

description: The Louisiana State Legislature created the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed pursuant to these acts specifically require an evaluation of the effectiveness of each coastal wetlands restoration project in achieving long-term solutions to arresting coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes mosaicked aerial photographs for the Pecan Island Terracing (ME-14) project for 2018. This data is used as a basemap land-water classification. It also serves as a visual tool for project managers to help them identify any obvious problems or land loss within their project boundary. To better evaluate the effectiveness of restoration efforts, a land-water classification is performed on specific CWPPRA sites to help assess landscape changes.

title: SBC LTER: Reef: Abundance, size and fishing effort for California Spiny Lobster (Panulirus interruptus), ongoing since 2012

description: Data on abundance, size and fishing pressure of California spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus) are collected along the mainland coast of the Santa Barbara Channel. Spiny lobsters are an important predator in giant kelp forests off southern California. Two SBC LTER study reefs are located in or near the California Fish and Game Network of Marine Protected Areas (MPA), Naples and Isla Vista, both established as MPAs on 2012-01-01. MPAs provide a unique opportunity to investigate the effects of fishing on kelp forest community dynamics. Sampling began in 2012 and is ongoing. This dataset contains two tables. 1) Abundance and size data collected annually by divers in late summer before the start of the fishing season at five SBC LTER long term kelp forest study sites: two within MPAs (Naples and Isla Vista) and three outside (Arroyo Quemado, Mohawk and Carpinteria). 2) Fishing pressure, as determined by counting the number of commercial trap floats. Data are collected every two to four weeks during the lobster fishing season (October to March) at nine sites along the mainland, eight of which are also SBC LTER long-term kelp forest study reefs. See Methods for more information.
