Global agricultural intensification during climate change: a role for genomics

Creator:: Abberton, Michael, Batley, Jacqueline, Bentley, Alison, Bryant, John, Cai, Hongwei, Cockram, James, Costa de Oliveira, Antonio, Cseke, Leland J., Dempewolf, Hannes, De Pace, Ciro, Edwards, David, Gepts, Paul, Greenland, Andy, Hall, Anthony E., Henry, Robert, Hori, Kiyosumi, Howe, Glenn Thomas, Hughes, Stephen, Humphreys, Mike, Lightfoot, David, Marshall, Athole, Mayes, Sean, Nguyen, Henry T., Ogbonnaya, Francis C., Ortiz, Rodomiro, Paterson, Andrew H., Tuberosa, Roberto, Valliyodan, Babu, Varshney, Rajeev K., and Yano, Masahiro
Abstract:: Agriculture is now facing the ‘perfect storm’ of climate change, increasing costs of fertilizer and rising food demands from a larger and wealthier human population. These factors point to a global food deficit unless the efficiency and resilience of crop production is increased. The intensification of agriculture has focused on...

Exploring Phytoplankton Population Growth to Enhance Quantitative Literacy: Putting Vision & Change into Action

Creator:: Baumgartner, Erin, Biga, Lindsay, Bledsoe, Karen, Dawson, James, Grammer, Julie, Howard, Ava, and Snyder, Jeffrey
Abstract:: Quantitative literacy is essential to biological literacy (and is one of the core concepts in Vision and Change in Undergraduate Biology Education: A Call to Action; AAAS 2009). Building quantitative literacy is a challenging endeavor for biology instructors. Integrating mathematical skills into biological investigations can help build quantitative literacy. In...

How Good Science and Stories Can Go Hand-In-Hand

Creator:: Leslie, Heather M., Goldman, Erica, McLeod, Karen L., Sievanen, Leila, Balasubramanian, Hari, Cudney-Bueno, Richard, Feuerstein, Amanda, Knowlton, Nancy, Lee, Kai, Pollnac, Richard, and Samhouri, Jameal F.
Abstract:: What do you say when you have only a minute to explain to a municipal official why keeping track of the number of bird species found in a park may help make decisions about park management? Talk of significant differences among treatments or testing theory will likely meet with glazed...

Plethodontid Salamander Distributions in Managed Forest Headwaters in Western Oregon, USA

Creator:: Olson, Deanna H. and Kluber, Matthew R.
Abstract:: We examined terrestrial amphibians in managed headwater forest stands in western Oregon from 1998 to 2009. We assessed: (1) temporal and spatial patterns of species capture rates, and movement patterns with distance from streams and forest management treatments of alternative riparian buffer widths and upland thinning; (2) species survival and...

Sixth Oregon climate assessment

Creator:: Fleishman, Erica and Oregon Climate Change Research Institute
Abstract:: Consistent with its charge under Oregon House Bill 3543, the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI) conducts a biennial assessment of the state of climate change science, including biological, physical, and social science, as it relates to Oregon and the likely effects of climate change on Oregon. This sixth Oregon...

Creator:: Driggers, Camden M., Cooley, Richard B., Sankaran, Banumathi, Hirschberger, Lawrence L., Stipanuk, Martha H., and Karplus, P. Andrew
Abstract:: Mammalian cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear non-heme iron protein that catalyzes 2 the conversion of cysteine (Cys) to cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA) by an unclarified mechanism. 3 One structural study revealed a Cys-persulfenate (or Cys-persulfenic acid) formed in the active 4 site, but quantum mechanical calculations have been used...

Investigating Issues in the Laboratory: The Behavior of Red Swamp Crayfish as an Invasive Species

Creator:: Hewitt, Krissi M., Kayes, Lori J., Hubert, David, and Chouinard, Adam
Abstract:: Recent reform initiatives in undergraduate biology call for curricula that prepare students for dealing with real-world issues and making important links between science and society. In response to this call, we have developed an issues-based laboratory module that uses guided inquiry to integrate the concepts of animal behavior and population...

A Polynomial Chaos Method for Dispersive Electromagnetics

Creator:: Gibson, Nathan L.
Abstract:: Electromagnetic wave propagation in complex dispersive media is governed by the time dependent Maxwell’s equations coupled to equations that describe the evolution of the induced macroscopic polarization. We consider “polydispersive” materials represented by distributions of dielectric parameters in a polarization model. The work focuses on a novel computational framework for...

Quantifying invertebrate resistance to floods: a global-scale meta-analysis

Creator:: McMullen, Laura E. and Lytle, David A.
Abstract:: Floods are a key component of the ecology and management of riverine ecosystems around the globe, but it is not clear whether floods have predictable effects on organisms that can allow us to generalize across regions and continents. To address this, we conducted a global-scale meta-analysis to investigate effects of...
