Estimation Of Manning Roughness Coefficients On Precast Ecological Concrete Blocks, Te-Hsing Chang, Shen-Ting Huang, Shinne Chen, Jun-Cheng Lai

Journal of Marine Science and Technology–Taiwan

Agricultural irrigation and drainage canals in Taiwan are generally constructed using concrete. Concrete is used for the safety of conveyance efficiency. It also reduced loss and is structurally safe. The irrigation ditches and soil revetments in Taiwan fitted with a strong concrete lining. The smooth nonporous concrete surface makes the biology perch difficult and causes a monotonous flow. For these reason, an artificial materials-precast ecological concrete blocks (PECBs) was developed in this research. This was done in order to modify both the traditional concrete lining and the natural field materials in canal construction. Precast ecological concrete blocks (PECBs) were tested …

T10c12 Conjugated Linoleic Acid Causes Delipidation In 3t3-L1 Adipocytes And Mice, Shan Jiang

Department of Animal Science: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

T10c12 conjugated linoleic acid (t10c12 CLA) causes the reduction of triglyceride contents in adipocytes. T10c12 CLA’s delipidation effect is associated with decreased nutrient uptake, adipogenesis, lipogenesis, and increased energy expenditure, lipolysis, fatty acid oxidation in adipocytes. However, the molecular mechanisms of CLA’s delipidation effects are still unknown. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a central regulator of cellular energy levels, is activated by an increase in the cellular AMP:ATP ratio or various cellular stresses. We demonstrated that t10c12 CLA activated AMPK in 3T3-L1 adipocytes, leading to inhibition of anabolic biosynthesis and increase of energy expenditure. Strong activation of AMPK can induce an …

Mycorrhization Of Ponderosa Pine In A Second-Growth Sierra Nevada Forest, R. F. Walker, W. Cheng, D. W. Johnson

Western North American Naturalist

Ectomycorrhizal colonization and rooting characteristics were quantified in a mature ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws.) stand in the western Sierra Nevada. Root length totaled 3835.9 m · m⁻² of forest floor surface area, with 96% consisting of the fine-root fraction. Total root dry weight and volume were 2230.4 g · m⁻² and 5807.4 cm³ · m⁻² of forest floor area, respectively, with 69% of the former and 75% of the latter accounted for by the coarse fraction. Fine roots were most prevalent in the upper 15 cm of the mineral soil profile, and …

Effects Of Melezitose And Stachyose On Adult Longevity And Virus Persistence In Culicoides Sonorensis (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae), Will K. Reeves, Guinevere Z. Jones

Western North American Naturalist

A wide variety of blood-feeding Diptera feed on extrafloral sugar sources such as homopteran honeydew. The significance of these sugar sources to insect survival and disease transmission is poorly known. Culicoides sonorensis, a biting midge, can survive on plant sugars but might also feed on homopteran honeydew. The survival of C. sonorensis fed 10% melezitose or 10% stachyose was compared to that of C. sonorensis fed 10% sucrose. A significantly greater number of C. sonorensis survived longer when fed melezitose than when fed either stachyose or sucrose. The effect of sugar meals on vector competence was measured using bluetongue and …

Denning Chronology Of Black Bears In Eastern Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, Roger A. Baldwin, Louis C. Bender

Western North American Naturalist

Understanding factors influencing the timing of den entrance and emergence of black bears (Ursus americanus) provides insight for bear management. We determined den entrance and emergence dates for bears in Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) and related these dates to vegetative productivity, weather, habitat, and demographic factors to assess the influence of these factors on denning chronology. Date of den entrance was most strongly influenced by age class, precipitation, and proportion of human-use areas in annual home ranges. Den entrance was typically later for adult bears during wetter years and when annual home ranges contained a greater proportion …

Analyzing Collagen Alpha 1(Xi) Using A Zebrafish Model System, Dawn Mikelonis, Ming Fang, Raquel Brown

College of Arts and Sciences Poster Presentations

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are progressively becoming more popular as a model organism for research. The use of zebrafish is advantageous for several reasons. Zebrafish exhibit high fecundity, and are easy to maintain in large numbers. The embryos produced are transparent, and have fewer cells than many other vertebrates. The embryos develop from a single cell to a small fish within 24 hours, which allows the research process to advance quickly. Also, the existence of the embryo outside of the mother allows for direct access. Using zebrafish as a model organism, the aim of this project is to determine the function …
