Subglacial hydrology of the Lake Michigan Lobe, Laurentide Ice Sheet

Creator:: Breemer, Christopher W.
Abstract:: Fast ice flow and unstable ice sheet behavior were characteristic features of the Lake Michigan Lobe of the southern Laurentide Ice Sheet. Such behavior may result from some combination of subglacial-sediment deformation and decoupled sliding at the ice-bed interface. Both mechanisms depend on high water pressure relative to ice pressure....

Surface Flux Observations on the Southeastern Tropical Pacific Ocean and Attribution of SST Errors in Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Models

Creator:: de Szoeke, Simon P., Fairall, Christopher W., Wolfe, Daniel E., Bariteau, Ludovic, and Zuidema, Paquita
Abstract:: A new dataset synthesizes in situ and remote sensing observations from research ships deployed to the southeastern tropical Pacific stratocumulus region for 7 years in boreal fall. Surface meteorology, turbulent and radiative fluxes, aerosols, cloud properties, and rawinsonde profiles were measured on nine ship transects along 20°S from 75° to...

Leaf processing behaviour in Atta leafcutter ants: 90% of leaf cutting takes place inside the nest, and ants select pieces that require less cutting

Creator:: Garrett, Ryan W., Carlson, Katherine A., Goggans, Matthew Scott, Nesson, Michael H., Shepard, Christopher A., and Schofield, Robert M. S.
Abstract:: Leafcutter ants cut trimmings from plants, carry them to their underground nests and cut them into smaller pieces before inoculating them with a fungus that serves as a primary food source for the colony. Cutting is energetically costly, so the amount of cutting is important in understanding foraging energetics. Estimates...

Identifying Malaria Transmission Foci for Elimination Using Human Mobility Data

Creator:: Ruktanonchai, Nick W., DeLeenheer, Patrick, Tatem, Andrew J., Alegana, Victor A., Caughlin, T. Trevor, zu Erbach-Schoenberg, Elisabeth, Lourenço, Christopher, Ruktanonchai, Corrine W., and Smith, David L.
Abstract:: Humans move frequently and tend to carry parasites among areas with endemic malaria and into areas where local transmission is unsustainable. Human-mediated parasite mobility can thus sustain parasite populations in areas where they would otherwise be absent. Data describing human mobility and malaria epidemiology can help classify landscapes into parasite...

Performance of the Forest Vegetation Simulator in Managed White Spruce Plantations Influenced by Eastern Spruce Budworm in Northern Minnesota

Creator:: Russell, Matthew B., D'Amato, Anthony W., Albers, Michael A., Puettmann, Klaus J., Woodall, Christopher W., Saunders, Michael R., and VanderSchaaf, Curtis L.
Abstract:: Silvicultural strategies such as thinning may minimize productivity losses from a variety of forest disturbances, including forest insects. This study analyzed the 10-year postthinning response of stands and individual trees in thinned white spruce (Picea glauca [Moench] Voss) plantations in northern Minnesota, USA, with light to moderate defoliation from eastern...

The Effects of Forest Fuel-Reduction Treatments in the United States

Creator:: Stephens, Scott L., McIver, James D., Boerner, Ralph E. J., Fettig, Christopher J., Fontaine, Joseph B., Hartsough, Bruce R., Kennedy, Patricia L., and Schwilk, Dylan W.
Abstract:: The current conditions of many seasonally dry forests in the western and southern United States, especially those that once experienced low- to moderate-intensity fire regimes, leave them uncharacteristically susceptible to high-severity wildfire. Both prescribed fire and its mechanical surrogates are generally successful in meeting short-term fuel-reduction objectives such that treated...

Task-Specific and General Cognitive Effects in Chiari Malformation Type I

Creator:: Allen, Philip A., Houston, James R., Pollock, Joshua W., Buzzelli, Christopher, Li, Xuan, Harrington, A. Katherine, Martin, Bryn A., Loth, Francis, Lien, Mei-Ching, Maleki, Jahangir, and Luciano, Mark G.
Abstract:: Objective Our objective was to use episodic memory and executive function tests to determine whether or not Chiari Malformation Type I (CM) patients experience cognitive dysfunction. Background CM is a neurological syndrome in which the cerebellum descends into the cervical spine causing neural compression, severe headaches, neck pain, and number...

Quantifying the effect of forest age in annual net forest carbon balance

Abstract:: Forests dominate carbon (C) exchanges between the terrestrial biosphere and the atmosphere on land. In the long term, the net carbon flux between forests and the atmosphere has been significantly impacted by changes in forest cover area and structure due to ecological disturbances and management activities. Current empirical approaches for...

Carnivore conservation needs evidence-based livestock protection

Creator:: van Eeden, Lily M., Eklund, Ann, Miller, Jennifer R. B., Lopez-Bao, Jose Vicente, Chapron, Guillaume, Cejtin, Mikael R., Crowther, Mathew S., Dickman, Christopher R., Frank, Jens, Krofel, Miha, Macdonald, David W., McManus, Jeannine, Meyer, Tara K., Middleton, Arthur D., Newsome, Thomas M., Ripple, William J., Ritchie, Euan G., Schmitz, Oswald J., Stoner, Kelly J., Tourani, Mahdieh, and Treves, Adrian
Abstract:: Carnivore predation on livestock often leads people to retaliate. Persecution by humans has contributed strongly to global endangerment of carnivores. Preventing livestock losses would help to achieve three goals common to many human societies: preserve nature, protect animal welfare, and safeguard human livelihoods. Between 2016 and 2018, four independent reviews...

Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Targeted capture of genomic regions reduces sequencing cost while generating higher coverage by allowing biomedical researchers to focus on specific loci of interest, such as exons. Targeted capture also has the potential to facilitate the generation of genomic data from DNA collected via saliva or buccal cells. DNA samples...
