Wilson-Leonard An 11,000-Year Archeological Record Of Hunter-Gatherers In Central Texas Volume I: Introduction, Background, And Syntheses, Michael B. Collins, Gail L. Bailey, C. Britt Bousman, Susan W. Dial, Paul Goldberg, Jan Guy, Vance T. Holliday, C. E. Mear, Paul R. Takac

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

Study of the archeology of the Wilson-Leonard site has opened broad new vistas for the reexamination and improved interpretation of regional prehistory. Beyond that, it is of national importance in terms of both data and interpretation (for example, on the Paleoindian era) and the concepts used in its excavation and analysis. It is unique in other ways. In most cases, deep, stratified, multicomponent sites of this integrity are rarely excavated (in Texas, at least) more than once and the potential for long-term research is not fully met. As the reader will learn, Wilson-Leonard was first excavated on a large scale …

Process-Specific Cues For Recruitment In Sedimentary Environments: Geochemical Signals?, Sarah A. Woodin, Roberta L. Marinelli, Sara M. Lindsay

Journal of Marine Research

The most biologically and geochemically active marine sediments are characterized by steep chemical gradients within the top centimeters of sediment (Berner, 1980). A common feature of these environments is disruptions of surface sediments by both physical and biotic forces. Growth and mortality rates for new recruits are affected by many of these surface perturbations. At the same time, these disturbances also impose a discontinuity in concentration across the sediment-water interface, and accordingly, a change in surface chemistry. In this paper we present evidence that the cue used by juveniles to distinguish between recently disturbed and undisturbed surfaces may be disruption …

Seabed Drag Coefficient Over Natural Beds Of Horse Mussels (Atrina Zelandica), Malcolm O. Green, Judi E. Hewitt, Simon F. Thrush

Journal of Marine Research

Measurements of seabed drag coefficient, C₁₀₀, were made under tidal currents at four sites in Mahurangi Harbour, New Zealand. At the first three sites the dominant roughness element was the pinnid bivalve, Atrina zelandica (horse mussel). At the fourth site, which was devoid of horse mussels but covered in cockle shells, patches of seaweed and crab burrows, C₁₀₀ was smallest (0.0055), but still twice as large as the value typically applied to abiotic, flat, cohesionless seabeds (0.0025). The mean drag coefficient plus-or-minus standard error at the three sites with horse mussels was: 0.0082 ± 0.0010 (site 1); …

Excretion Of Trace Elements By Marine Copepods And Their Bioavailability To Diatoms, Wen-Xiong Wang, Nicholas S. Fisher

Journal of Marine Research

We measured the physiological turnover rate (= excretion rate) of five trace elements (Ag, Cd, Co, Se and Zn) in the marine copepod Temora longicornis following feeding on radiolabeled diatoms. The turnover rate constants of trace elements in copepods were high (0.05 to 0.38 d^-1) and were comparable to published values for N and P excretion. Ag, Cd and Co were excreted at higher rates than Se and Zn. Turnover rate constants of Ag, Cd, and Co also increased with increasing food concentration, whereas excretion of Se and Zn was not affected by food concentration. There was little …

Larval Settlement In Turbulent Pipe Flows, James E. Eckman, David O. Duggins

Journal of Marine Research

In two experiments, larval settlement was studied within a series of pipes, each containing steady, turbulent, flowing seawater. The study was designed to determine effects of flow (speed, turbulence intensity and wall shear stress) and surface orientation on rates of settlement of larvae of various taxa, and to relate variability in patterns of settlement among orientations and flows to the concomitant variability expected in rates of larval supply or delivery to the pipe walls. Patterns of settlement of all five taxa (the barnacle Balanus spp., the mussel Mytilus trossulus, the serpulid polychaete Pseudochitinopoma occidentalis, the cyclostome bryozoan Tubulipora sp., …

Cyanonews (Vol. 14, No. 1, August 1998), Jeff Elhai

CyanoNews

CyanoNews was a newsletter that served the cyanobacteriological community from 1985 to 2003, with content provided by readers (sort of a blog before there were blogs). The newsletter reported new findings from the lab, summaries of recent meetings (often provided by graduate students and post-docs entering the field), positions sought or available, life transitions, a compendium of recent cyanobacteria-related articles, and other items of interest to those who study cyanobacteria.

BACKGROUND

Although trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole is the drug of choice for the prevention of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, many patients cannot tolerate it and must switch to an alternative agent.

METHODS

We conducted a multicenter, open-label, randomized trial comparing daily atovaquone (1500-mg suspension) with daily dapsone (100 mg) for the prevention of P. carinii pneumonia among patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus who could not tolerate trimethoprim–sulfamethoxazole. The median follow-up period was 27 months.

RESULTS

Of 1057 patients enrolled, 298 had a history of P. carinii pneumonia.P. cariniipneumonia developed in 122 of 536 patients assigned to atovaquone (15.7 cases per …

Natural And Genetic Engineering Of The Heat-Shock Protein Hsp70 In Drosophila Melanogaster: Consequences For Thermotolerance, Martin E. Feder, Robert A. Krebs

Biological, Geological, and Environmental Faculty Publications

Larvae of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, live within necrotic fruit, a challenging environment in which larvae can experience severe thermal stress. One response to thermal stress, the expression of heat-shock proteins (Hsps), has evolved distinctively in this species; the gene encoding Hsp70 has undergone extensive duplication and accounts for the bulk of Hsps that are expressed upon heat shock. Genetic engineering of hsp70 copy number is sufficient to affect thermotolerance at some (but not all) life stages. Increases in Hsp70, moreover, can protect intact larvae against thermal inactivation of the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase and thermal inhibition of feeding. …

Simulation Of Complex Movements Using Artificial Neural Networks, Holk Cruse, Jeffrey Dean, Thomas Kindermann, Josef Schmitz, Michael Schumm

Biological, Geological, and Environmental Faculty Publications

A simulated network for controlling a six-legged, insect-like walking system is proposed. The network contains internal recurrent connections, but important recurrent connections utilize the loop through the environment. This approach leads to a subnet for controlling the three joints of a leg during its swing which is arguably the simplest possible solution. The task for the stance subnet appears more difficult because the movements of a larger and varying number of joints (9-18: Three for each leg in stance) have to be controlled such that each leg contributes efficiently to support and propulsion and legs do not work at cross …

Genesis 2:26, Michael G. M. Cornelius

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

On the eighth day, God sighed.

The noise rumbled through heaven and earth. The cherubim were silenced; the seraphim held their breath. Even the archangels ceased their endless activity to crane their necks and look about.

The earth trembled. Volcanos erupted, the great continental plates divided. The pools of celestial ooze stopped bubbling and crackling.

All angels, all creatures, all rocks and trees - even the land itself waited in breathless, awful anticipation.

Nothing happened.

A rock relaxed, falling off a mountain. The volcanos grew dormant. The cherubim laughed, softly, nervously, then began to sing again, a lullaby. The seraphim …
