Information And Data Management Program's Pi Workshop, Peggy Agouris
University of Maine Office of Research Administration: Grant Reports
The objective of this workshop is to bring together the PIs and Co-PIs currently funded by the Information and Data Management Program of the National Science Foundation to discuss and exchange ideas on the focus topics of their field, as well as to identify and elaborate on emerging themes and particular emphases for future activities.
More specifically, the researchers, along with selected industry and government invitees, cooperatively focused on:
(1) analyzing research and development issues fundamental in making progress towards new challenges imposed by such diverse data sources as the Internet, embedded and distributed sensors, and satellites;
(2) specifying areas …
Control Of Denitrification In A Permanently Ice Covered Antarctic Lake: Potential For Regulation By Bioactive Metals, Mark Wells
University of Maine Office of Research Administration: Grant Reports
Lake Bonney is a permanently ice-covered lake in the Dry ValleyÆs region of Antarctica separated into two deep lobes by a shallow (12 m) sill. Denitrification occurs in the sub-oxic, saline waters of the west lobe but not in that of the east lobe for reasons unknown. Previous work has established this disparity cannot be attributed to temperature or salinity limitations, nor by the comparative availability of organic carbon substrates. Our research objective is to determine if trace metal limitation or toxicity may be responsible for this unusual feature. The broader objective is to assess the likelihood that denitrification in …
