Runoff generation in a steep, tropical montane cloud forest catchment on permeable volcanic substrate

Creator:: Munoz-Villers, Lyssette E. and McDonnell, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: Most studies to date in the humid tropics have described a similar pattern of rapid translation of rainfall to runoff via overland flow and shallow subsurface stormflow. However, study sites have been few overall, and one particular system has received very little attention so far: tropical montane cloud forests (TMCF)...

Origin of p-type conduction in single-crystal CuAlO₂

Creator:: Tate, Janet, Ju, H. L., Moon, J. C., Zakutayev, A., Richard, A. P., Russell, J., and McIntyre, D. H.
Abstract:: We report measurements of the structural, optical, transport, and magnetic properties of single crystals of the anisotropic p-type transparent semiconductor CuAlO₂. The indirect and direct band gaps are 2.97 and 3.47 eV, respectively. Temperature-dependent Hall measurements yield a positive Hall coefficient in the measured range and an activated carrier temperature...

Abstract:: More than US$21 billion is spent annually on biodiversity conservation. Despite their importance for preventing or slowing extinctions and preserving biodiversity, conservation interventions are rarely assessed systematically for their global impact. Islands house a disproportionately higher amount of biodiversity compared with mainlands, much of which is highly threatened with extinction....

Abstract:: The Andes of south-central Chile, with the valuable and dominant timber species Nothofagus dombeyi and N. alpina, have been heavily high-graded. Restoring these high-graded forests with these species is challenging since they are light demanding and the understory becomes dominated by bamboo (Chusquea culeou), which prevents natural regeneration.

Temporal variation of hydrological exchange and hyporheic biogeochemistry in a headwater stream during autumn

Creator:: Argerich, Alba, Marti, Eugenia, Sabater, Francesc, and Ribot, Miquel
Abstract:: The hyporheic zone is of great interest for stream ecologists because of its role in stream biogeochemical processing. Our study addresses the effects of leaf-litter inputs and varying discharge on surface–hyporheic water exchange and their possible consequences for the hyporheic zone biogeochemistry. Our study was conducted during autumn in Riera...

Twelve months of voluntary heavy alcohol consumption in male rhesus macaques suppresses intracortical bone remodeling

Creator:: Gaddini, Gino W., Grant, Kathleen A., Woodall, Andrew, Stull, Cara, Maddalozzo, Gianni F., Zhang, Bo, Turner, Russell T., and Iwaniec, Urszula T.
Abstract:: Chronic heavy alcohol consumption is a risk factor for cortical bone fractures in males. The increase in fracture risk may be due, in part, to reduced bone quality. Intracortical (osteonal) bone remodeling is the principle mechanism for maintaining cortical bone quality. However, it is not clear how alcohol abuse impacts...

Creator:: Ligeiro, Raphael, Hughes, Robert M., Kaufmann, Philip R., Macedo, Diego R., Firmiano, Kele R., Ferreira, Wander R., Oliveira, Deborah, Melo, Adriano S., and Callisto, Marcos
Abstract:: Most studies dealing with the use of ecological indicators and other applied ecological research rely on some definition or concept of what constitutes least-, intermediate- and most-disturbed condition. Currently, most rigorous methodologies designed to define those conditions are suited to large spatial extents (nations, ecoregions) and many sites (hundreds to...

Abstract:: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide with human papillomavirus (HPV) being the main cause the disease. Chromosomal amplifications have been identified as a source of upregulation for cervical cancer driver genes but cannot fully explain increased expression of immune genes in invasive carcinoma.

Activation of Immobilized Lipase in Non-Aqueous Systems by Hydrophobic Poly-DL-Tryptophan Tethers

Creator:: Schilke, Karl F. and Kelly, Christine
Abstract:: Many industrially important reactions use immobilized enzymes in non-aqueous, organic systems, particularly for the production of chiral compounds such as pharmaceutical precursors. The addition of a spacer molecule (“tether”) between a supporting surface and enzyme often substantially improves the activity and stability of enzymes in aqueous solution. Most “long” linkers...

The Effect of Iron Limitation on the Transcriptome and Proteome of Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5

Creator:: Lim, Chee Kent, Hassan, Karl A., Tetu, Sasha G., Loper, Joyce E., and Paulsen, Ian T.
Abstract:: One of the most important micronutrients for bacterial growth is iron, whose bioavailability in soil is limited. Consequently, rhizospheric bacteria such as Pseudomonas fluorescens employ a range of mechanisms to acquire or compete for iron. We investigated the transcriptomic and proteomic effects of iron limitation on P. fluorescens Pf-5 by...

Abstract:: The seasonal cycle of the near-surface circulation off central Chile was analyzed using satellite altimetry and an oceanic model. To evaluate the role of the wind stress curl on the circulation we performed two identical simulations except for the wind-forcing: the "control run" used long-term monthly mean wind stress and...

Simultaneous determination of phenolic compounds in Cynthiana grape (Vitis aestivalis) by high performance liquid chromatography–electrospray ionisation–mass spectrometry

Creator:: Ramirez-Lopez, L. M., McGlynn, W., Goad, C. L., and Mireles DeWitt, C. A.
Abstract:: Phenolic acids, flavanols, flavonols and stilbenes (PAFFS) were isolated from whole grapes, juice, or pomace and purified using enzymatic hydrolysis. Only anthocyanin mono-glucosides and a few of the oligomers from Cynthiana grape (Vitis aestivalis) were analysed. Flavonoid-anthocyanin mono-glucosides (FA) were isolated using methanol/0.1% hydrochloric acid extraction. In addition, crude extractions...
