Eelgrass Distribution In The Great Bay Estuary For 2011, Frederick T. Short Sep 2012

Eelgrass Distribution In The Great Bay Estuary For 2011, Frederick T. Short

PREP Reports & Publications

Eelgrass in the Great Bay Estuary declined in both distribution and biomass between 2010 and 2011. In 2011, eelgrass was once again mainly present in the Great Bay itself with limited distribution in Portsmouth Harbor and Little Bay. Eelgrass distribution in Great Bay itself decreased between 2010 and 2011 and experienced an alarming 26% loss of biomass in a single year. In Great Bay itself there has been a loss of 35% of eelgrass distribution since 1996. In 2011, despite recent consecutive excellent growing years in terms of weather, we saw a reverse of the trend of slight increases in …


Evaluation Of An Early Intervention Program Using Eligibility Criteria, Emily Kurlansik Sep 2012

Evaluation Of An Early Intervention Program Using Eligibility Criteria, Emily Kurlansik

Theses and Dissertations

Early Intervention programs are state and federally funded programs that are available in virtually every state that provide support to children birth to three who have developmental delays. Eligibility into the program varies by state and determining eligibility for a child is a complex task that has tremendous implications on both the program and its children. A program evaluation was conducted on a branch of an early intervention program located in New Jersey to determine whether service providers were correctly identifying children who were eligible for services. Results indicated that four of out the 112 children in the program were …


The Bench Scientist's Guide To Statistical Analysis Of Rna-Seq Data, Craig R. Yendrek, Elizabeth A. Ainsworth, Jyothi Thimmapuram Sep 2012

The Bench Scientist's Guide To Statistical Analysis Of Rna-Seq Data, Craig R. Yendrek, Elizabeth A. Ainsworth, Jyothi Thimmapuram

Cyber Center Publications

RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is emerging as a highly accurate method to quantify transcript abundance. However, analyses of the large data sets obtained by sequencing the entire transcriptome of organisms have generally been performed by bioinformatics specialists. Here we provide a step-by-step guide and outline a strategy using currently available statistical tools that results in a conservative list of differentially expressed genes. We also discuss potential sources of error in RNA-Seq analysis that could alter interpretation of global changes in gene expression.


Exploring The Role Of A Conserved Class A Residue In The Ω-Loop Of Kpc-2 Β-Lactamase: A Mechanism For Ceftazidime Hydrolysis Sep 2012

Exploring The Role Of A Conserved Class A Residue In The Ω-Loop Of Kpc-2 Β-Lactamase: A Mechanism For Ceftazidime Hydrolysis

Chemistry Faculty Publications

Gram-negative bacteria harboring KPC-2, a class A β-lactamase, are resistant to all β-lactam antibiotics and pose a major public health threat. Arg-164 is a conserved residue in all class A β-lactamases and is located in the solvent-exposed Ω-loop of KPC-2. To probe the role of this amino acid in KPC-2, we performed site-saturation mutagenesis. When compared with wild type, 11 of 19 variants at position Arg-164 in KPC-2 conferred increased resistance to the oxyimino-cephalosporin, ceftazidime (minimum inhibitory concentration; 32→128 mg/liter) when expressed in Escherichia coli. Using the R164S variant of KPC-2 as a representative β-lactamase for more detailed analysis, we …

[1] The global tropospheric budget of gaseous and particulate non‐methane organic matter (OM) is re‐examined to provide a holistic view of the role that OM plays in transporting the essential nutrients nitrogen and phosphorus to the ocean. A global 3‐dimensional chemistry‐transport model was used to construct the first global picture of atmospheric transport and deposition of the organic nitrogen (ON) and organic phosphorus (OP) that are associated with OM, focusing on the soluble fractions of these nutrients. Model simulations agree with observations within an order of magnitude. Depending on location, the observed water soluble ON fraction ranges from ∼3% to …

Serpentine Low Loss Trapezoidal Silica Waveguides On Silicon, Xiaomin Zhang, Mark Harrison, Audrey Harker, Andrea M. Armani Sep 2012

Serpentine Low Loss Trapezoidal Silica Waveguides On Silicon, Xiaomin Zhang, Mark Harrison, Audrey Harker, Andrea M. Armani

Engineering Faculty Articles and Research

We report the fabrication and characterization of straight and serpentine low loss trapezoidal silica waveguides integrated on a silicon substrate. The waveguide channel was defined using a dual photo-lithography and buffered HF etching and isolated from the silicon substrate using an isotropic silicon etchant. The waveguide is air-clad and thus has a core-cladding effective index contrast of approximately 25%. Measured at 658, 980 and 1550nm, the propagation loss was found to be 0.69, 0.59, and 0.41dB/cm respectively, with a critical bending radius less than 375μm. The waveguide’s polarization behavior was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Additionally, the output power shows …
