“Narco-Deforestation” in Central American Protected Areas: Developing A Spatiotemporal Proxy Database for Drug-Trafficking Activities from Media Reporting

Creator:: Cameron, Olivia Z.
Abstract:: On a global scale, illicit economies have dramatic impacts on the physical environment. Cocaine trafficking has been recognized as a major driver of deforestation inside Central American protected areas. A key problem in studying and managing the environmental impacts of illicit economic activity is the difficulty in obtaining reliable data....

Characterization of Mitochondrial Metabolism in L6 Rat Myoblasts

Creator:: Burney, Emily R.
Abstract:: The prevalence of obesity is increasing worldwide, causing a subsequent increase in insulin resistance (IR), metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. Although these conditions significantly impact both the individual and society, their etiologies have not been discovered, inhibiting potential prevention and treatment. Alterations to mitochondrial metabolism are implicated in the development...

An Investigation into the Time-Sensitive Color Changing Quality of the Pigment Extracted from Scytalidium ganodermophthorum

Creator:: Walsh, Zielle
Abstract:: Scytalidium ganodermophthorum (Xylogone ganodermophthora) is known as a yellow-pigmenting spalting fungus. However, recent observations have indicated that the dichloromethane-extracted pigment produced by S. ganodermophthorum can vary in color from yellow to green to red to purple, depending on the age of the fungus at harvesting. The timeline and mechanisms behind...

Short-Term Lipid Overload in Skeletal Muscle Induces Mild Mitochondrial Membrane Depolarization as a Stimulus for Autophagy Activation

Creator:: Brinck, Isabel M.
Abstract:: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic condition that impairs insulin stimulated glucose absorption in skeletal muscle, a characteristic phenomenon denoted as insulin resistance. Lipid overload of the mitochondria is linked to the development of insulin resistance and the progression of Type 2 Diabetes. As lipids accumulate there is...

Fifty years of change in a Pacific Northwest winter forest bird community

Creator:: Clements, Nolan
Abstract:: North American bird populations have declined throughout the past half century. The majority of studies quantifying these declines have focused on spring and summer breeding birds; not the season of scarcity, winter. We re-surveyed 7 large study plots in Douglas fir forests initially surveyed in winter during the late 1960s...

Resource uptake and host tissue chemistry: Implications for competition and disease

Creator:: Schumann, Canan B.
Abstract:: Maintenance of optimal nutrient supplies is fundamental to the functioning of vertebrate, invertebrate, bacterial and plant physiology. Organisms on this planet compete with each other primarily to fulfill nutritional needs in order to maximize their health, wellbeing, and reproductive success. Here we examine nutrient concentrations in several different grass species...

Domestic Well Aquifer Storage Using Seasonal Springs

Creator:: Robinson, Julianne E.
Abstract:: In the face of increasing demand for and reduced supplies of water, methods to augment water supply and storage capacity are becoming increasingly important. In some areas, this has taken the form of aquifer storage and recovery (ASR), which involves injecting water into a well during a time of water...
