Ultraviolet Radiation Influences Perch Selection by a Neotropical Poison-Dart Frog

Creator:: Kats, Lee B., Bucciarelli, Gary M., Schlais, David E., Blaustein, Andrew R., and Han, Barbara A.
Abstract:: Ambient ultraviolet-B radiation can harm amphibian eggs, larvae and adults. However, some amphibians avoid UV-B radiation when given the opportunity. The strawberry poison dart frog, Oophaga pumilio, is diurnal and males vocalize throughout the day in light gaps under forest canopies that expose them to solar radiation. Previous studies have...

Macroalgae Decrease Growth and Alter Microbial Community Structure of the Reef-Building Coral, Porites astreoides

Creator:: Thurber, Rebecca Vega, Burkepile, Deron E., Correa, Adrienne M. S., Thurber, Andrew R., Shantz, Andrew A., Welsh, Rory, Pritchard, Catharine, and Rosales, Stephanie
Abstract:: With the continued and unprecedented decline of coral reefs worldwide, evaluating the factors that contribute to coral demise is of critical importance. As coral cover declines, macroalgae are becoming more common on tropical reefs. Interactions between these macroalgae and corals may alter the coral microbiome, which is thought to play...

Avian Species Richness in Relation to Intensive Forest Management Practices in Early Seral Tree Plantations

Creator:: Jones, Jay E., Kroll, Andrew J., Giovanini, Jack, Duke, Steven D., Ellis, Tana M., and Betts, Matthew G.
Abstract:: •Background: Managers of landscapes dedicated to forest commodity production require information about how practices influence biological diversity. Individual species and communities may be threatened if management practices truncate or simplify forest age classes that are essential for reproduction and survival. For instance, the degradation and loss of complex diverse forest...

Comparative Composition, Diversity and Trophic Ecology of Sediment Macrofauna at Vents, Seeps and Organic Falls

Creator:: Bernardino, Angelo F., Levin, Lisa A., Thurber, Andrew R., and Smith, Craig R.
Abstract:: Sediments associated with hydrothermal venting, methane seepage and large organic falls such as whale, wood and plant detritus create deep-sea networks of soft-sediment habitats fueled, at least in part, by the oxidation of reduced chemicals. Biological studies at deep-sea vents, seeps and organic falls have looked at macrofaunal taxa, but...

Development and Infectious Disease in Hosts with Complex Life Cycles

Creator:: Searle, Catherine L., Xie, Gisselle Yang, and Blaustein, Andrew R.
Abstract:: Metamorphosis is often characterized by profound changes in morphology and physiology that can affect the dynamics of species interactions. For example, the interaction between a pathogen and its host may differ depending on the life stage of the host or pathogen. One pathogen that infects hosts with complex life cycles...

Genetic and Functional Diversification of Small RNA Pathways in Plants

Creator:: Xie, Zhixin, Johansen, Lisa K., Gustafan, Adam M., Kasschau, Kristin D., Lellis, Andrew D., Zilberman, Daniel, Jacobsen, Steven E., and Carrington, James C.
Abstract:: Multicellular eukaryotes produce small RNA molecules (approximately 21–24 nucleotides) of two general types, microRNA (miRNA) and short interfering RNA (siRNA). They collectively function as sequence-specific guides to silence or regulate genes, transposons, and viruses and to modify chromatin and genome structure. Formation or activity of small RNAs requires factors belonging...

Coibamide A Induces mTOR-Independent Autophagy and Cell Death in Human Glioblastoma Cells

Creator:: Hau, Andrew M., Greenwood, Jeffrey A., Lohr, Christiane V., Serrill, Jeffrey D., Proteau, Philip J., Ganley, Ian G., McPhail, Kerry L., and Ishmael, Jane E.
Abstract:: Coibamide A is an N-methyl-stabilized depsipeptide that was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium as part of an International Cooperative Biodiversity Groups (ICBG) program based in Panama. Previous testing of coibamide A in the NCI in vitro 60 cancer cell line panel revealed a potent anti-proliferative response and "COMPARE-negative" profile indicative...

Evaluating the Return in Ecosystem Services from Investment in Public Land Acquisitions

Creator:: Kovacs, Kent, Polasky, Stephen, Nelson, Erik, Keeler, Bonnie L., Pennington, Derric, Plantinga, Andrew J., and Taff, Steven J.
Abstract:: We evaluate the return on investment (ROI) from public land conservation in the state of Minnesota, USA. We use a spatially-explicit modeling tool, the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST), to estimate how changes in land use and land cover (LULC), including public land acquisitions for conservation, influence...

Evaluation and improvement of the Community Land Model (CLM4) in Oregon forests

Creator:: Hudiburg, T. W., Law, B. E., and Thornton, P. E.
Abstract:: Ecosystem process models are important tools for determining the interactive effects of global change and disturbance on forest carbon dynamics. Here we evaluated and improved terrestrial carbon cycling simulated by the Community Land Model (CLM4), the land model portion of the Community Earth System Model (CESM1.0.4). Our analysis was conducted...

Performance of Linear and Nonlinear Two-Leaf Light Use Efficiency Models at Different Temporal Scales

Andrew, Margolis, Hank A., Cescatti, Alessandro, Gu, Lianhong, Montagnani, Leonardo, Noormets, Asko, Griffis, Timothy J., Pilegaard, Kim, Varlagin, Andrej, Valentini, Riccardo, Blanken, Peter D., Wang, Shaoqiang, Wang, Huimin, Han, Shijie, Yan, Junhua, Li, Yingnian, Zhou, Bingbing, and Liu, Yibo
Abstract:: The reliable simulation of gross primary productivity (GPP) at various spatial and temporal scales is of significance to quantifying the net exchange of carbon between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere. This study aimed to verify the ability of a nonlinear two-leaf model (TL-LUEn), a linear two-leaf model (TL-LUE), and a...
