Growing our vision together : forming a sustainability community within the American Library Association

Creator:: Filar Williams, Beth, Charney, Madeleine, and Smith, Bonnie
Abstract:: As long-standing keepers of democracy and information stewardship, library professionals are a natural fit for advocating and promoting sustainability within their communities. From seed libraries to Occupy Wall Street libraries, their view of sustainability extends beyond environmental concerns to include community activism, economic development, and social equity. Empowering people, facilitating...

Interactive visual analysis promotes exploration of long-term ecological data

Creator:: Pham, Tuan, Jones, Julia A., Metoyer, Ronald, Swanson, Frederick, and Pabst, Robert
Abstract:: Long-term ecological data are crucial in helping ecologists understand ecosystem function and environmental change. Nevertheless, these kinds of data sets are difficult to analyze because they are usually large, multivariate, and spatiotemporal. Although existing analysis tools such as statistical methods and spreadsheet software permit rigorous tests of pre-conceived hypotheses and...

Transmission Power Control with the Guaranteed Communication Reliability in WSN

Creator:: Kim, Dae-Young, Jin, Zilong, Choi, Jungwook, Lee, Ben, and Cho, Jinsung
Abstract:: In a wireless sensor network, sensor nodes are deployed in an ad hoc fashion and they deliver data packets using multihop transmission. However, transmission failures occur frequently in the multihop transmission over wireless media. Thus, a loss recovery mechanism is required to provide end-to-end reliability. In addition, because the sensor...

A Prediction Algorithm for Coexistence Problem in Multiple-WBAN Environment

Creator:: Jin, Zilong, Han, Yoonjeong, Cho, Jinsung, and Lee, Ben
Abstract:: The coexistence problem occurs when a single wireless body area network (WBAN) is located within a multiple-WBAN environment. This causes WBANs to suffer from severe channel interference that degrades the communication performance of each WBAN. Since a WBAN handles vital signs that affect human life, the detection or prediction of...

AI, Robot: A Rhetorical Analysis of Jeopardy! Matches Featuring IBM’s Artificial Intelligence

Creator:: Steele, Evan T.
Abstract:: The relationship between the public and new technologies has historically been a tumultuous one, with public perceptions ranging from excited rapid adoption to standoffish pessimism. In 2011, IBM tried to use competition as a means of showcasing a new technology to the public. This thesis is a work of rhetorical...

Circumpolar Diversity and Geographic Differentiation of mtDNA in the Critically Endangered Antarctic Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia)

Creator:: Sremba, Angela L., Hancock-Hanser, Brittany, Branch, Trevor A., LeDuc, Rick L., and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: The Antarctic blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia) was hunted to near extinction between 1904 and 1972, declining from an estimated initial abundance of more than 250,000 to fewer than 400. Here, we describe mtDNA control region diversity and geographic differentiation in the surviving population of the Antarctic blue whale, using...

The Generation Challenge Programme Platform: Semantic Standards and Workbench for Crop Science

Creator:: Bruskiewich, Richard, Senger, Martin, Davenport, Guy, Ruiz, Manuel, Rouard, Mathieu, Hazekamp, Tom, Takeya, Masaru, Doi, Koji, Satoh, Kouji, Costa, Marcos, Simon, Reinhard, Balaji, Jayashree, Akintunde, Akinnola, Mauleon, Ramil, Wanchana, Samart, Shah, Trushar, Anacleto, Mylah, Portugal, Arllet, Ulat, Victor Jun, Thongjuea, Supat, Braak, Kyle, Ritter, Sebastian, Dereeper, Alexis, Skofic, Milko, Rojas, Edwin, Martins, Natalia, Pappas, Georgios, Alamban, Ryan, Almodiel, Roque, Barboza, Lord Hendrix, Detras, Jeffrey, Manansala, Kevin, Mendoza, Michael Jonathan, Morales, Jeffrey, Peralta, Barry, Valerio, Rowena, Zhang, Yi, Gregorio, Sergio, Hermocilla, Joseph, Echavez, Michael, Yap, Jan Michael, Farmer, Andrew, Schiltz, Gary, Lee, Jennifer, Casstevens, Terry, Jaiswal, Pankaj, Meintjes, Ayton, Wilkinson, Mark, Good, Benjamin, Wagner, James, Morris, Jane, Marshall, David, Collins, Anthony, Kikuchi, Shoshi, Metz, Thomas, McLaren, Graham, and van Hintum, Theo
Abstract:: The Generation Challenge programme (GCP) is a global crop research consortium directed toward crop improvement through the application of comparative biology and genetic resources characterization to plant breeding. A key consortium research activity is the development of a GCP crop bioinformatics platform to support GCP research. This platform includes the...

Non-Invasive Sampling of Schistosomes from Humans Requires Correcting for Family Structure

Creator:: Steinauer, Michelle L., Christie, Mark R., Blouin, Michael S., Agola, Lelo E., Mwangi, Ibrahim N., Maina, Geoffrey M., Mutuku, Martin W., Kinuthia, Joseph M., Mkoji, Gerald M., and Loker, Eric S.
Abstract:: For ethical and logistical reasons, population-genetic studies of parasites often rely on the non-invasive sampling of offspring shed from their definitive hosts. However, if the sampled offspring are naturally derived from a small number of parents, then the strong family structure can result in biased population-level estimates of genetic parameters,...

Viewing forests through the lens of complex systems science

Abstract:: Complex systems science provides a transdisciplinary framework to study systems characterized by (1) heterogeneity, (2) hierarchy, (3) self‐organization, (4) openness, (5) adaptation, (6) memory, (7) non‐linearity, and (8) uncertainty. Complex systems thinking has inspired both theory and applied strategies for improving ecosystem resilience and adaptability, but applications in forest ecology...
