The Lights Creek Stock is an 18 square kilometer copper-bearing granitoid
intrusion within the Plumas Copper Belt in the northern California Sierra Nevada. Engels
Mine, Superior Mine, and Moonlight Valley represent the main copper-mineralization in
the Lights Creek district and small prospects include the Ruby Mine, and Moonlight
Creek. The...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
Abigail E. Stephens for the degree of Master of Science in Geology
BACKGROUND: Triticum monococcum (2n) is a close ancestor of T. urartu, the A-genome progenitor of cultivated hexaploid
wheat, and is therefore a useful model for the study of components regulating photomorphogenesis in diploid wheat. In
order to develop genetic and genomic resources for such a study, we constructed genome-wide transcriptomes...

Pseudomonas syringae is a phylogenetically diverse species of Gram-negative bacterial plant pathogens responsible for crop
diseases around the world. The HrpL sigma factor drives expression of the major P. syringae virulence regulon. HrpL controls
expression of the genes encoding the structural and functional components of the type III secretion system...

The atmospheric flux of methane from the oceans is largely mitigated through microbially
mediated sulphate-coupled methane oxidation, resulting in the precipitation of authigenic
carbonates. Deep-sea carbonates are common around active and palaeo-methane seepage,
and have primarily been viewed as passive recorders of methane oxidation; their role as active
and unique...
"What’s wrong with this AI?" Explainable AI (XAI) researchers are moving beyond explaining an AI’s actions, to helping users detect an AI’s failures. However this detection may not be enough—for actionability, we often need to pinpoint which part failed. We investigate how AAR/AI, a structured assessment process, supports users with...
