Chemical and Genetic Investigations of Toxic Freshwater Cyanobacterial Blooms for Improved Monitoring and Understanding of Lake Ecology

Creator:

Collart, Lindsay P.

Abstract:

Toxin production by cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) in freshwater systems has lasting ecological and human impacts. Nutrients, light availability, hydrology, and microbial community composition impact the frequency and intensity of toxic cyanoHABs. Climate change will exacerbate toxic cyanoHABs, making real time and predictive monitoring a vital tool for managing...

Consider the community : developing predictive linkages between community structure and performance in microbial fuel cells

Creator:

Lesnik, Keaton Larson

Abstract:

The complex, dynamic nature of microbial communities in both natural and engineered environments complicates the work of scientists and engineers who wish to channel microbial interactions for societal good. The successful management of these communities towards engineering goals is dependent on developing predictive linkages between community structure and functional outputs....
