Nutritional Capability Of And Substrate Suitability For Pseudogymnoascus Destructans, The Causal Agent Of Bat White-Nose Syndrome, Daniel B. Raudabaugh, Andrew N. Miller
KIP Articles
Pseudogymnoascus destructans, the causal agent of bat white-nose syndrome, has caused nearly six million deaths in North American bats since its introduction into the United States in 2006. Current research has shown that caves can harbor P. destructans even after the infected bats are removed and bats no longer visit or inhabit previously infected caves. Our research focuses on elucidating reservoir requirements by investigating the nutritional capabilities of and substrate suitability requirements for six different P. destructans isolates from various localities including Illinois, Indiana, New York (Type specimen), and Pennsylvania. Enzyme assays implicate that both urease and b-glucosidase appear to …

Western North American Naturalist
Between 27 June 1997 and 16 May 1999, 423 rodents were collected from North Texas (Collin, Denton, and Grayson counties) by using Sherman live-traps (trapping success rate ~22%). Of the 423 rodents collected, 328 were tested for evidence of IgG antibodies to New World hantaviruses. Hantavirus antibodies were detected in 34 individuals (~10%). This is the first record of hantavirus antibody–positive rodents from the highly urbanized area of North Texas.

Milnesium Lagniappe, A New Species Of Water Bear (Tardigrada, Eutardigrada, Apochela, Milnesiidae) From The Southern United States, Harry A. Meyer, Juliana G. Hinton, Maria C. Dupré
Western North American Naturalist
Over 200 species of freshwater and terrestrial water bears (phylum Tardigrada) are known to occur in North America. Of these, 20 species have been recorded in Louisiana. Foliose and fruticose lichen and moss samples collected in 2011 in the city of Lake Charles and in Sam Houston Jones State Park, Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, USA, were stored in paper envelopes and later soaked in tap water overnight. Tardigrade specimens and eggs were extracted and mounted in polyvinyl lactophenol. The samples contained a new species of tardigrade. Milnesium lagniappe sp. n. has claw formula [2-3]-[3-2] and 9 sculptured bands in the dorsal …
Spatial Ecology Of Female Mule Deer In An Area Proposed For Wind Energy Development, Stephen L. Webb, Matthew R. Dzialak, Dean Houchen, Karl L. Kosciuch, Jeffrey B. Winstead
Spatial Ecology Of Female Mule Deer In An Area Proposed For Wind Energy Development, Stephen L. Webb, Matthew R. Dzialak, Dean Houchen, Karl L. Kosciuch, Jeffrey B. Winstead
Western North American Naturalist
Development for wind energy is increasing rapidly across the United States, particularly in Wyoming, despite a general lack of information on the potential interaction development could have on wildlife species. Therefore, knowledge of the space use and movement patterns of individuals can help define spatial distributions and management unit boundaries for populations prior to development. Such knowledge can also be used as baseline data from which to assess any future impacts on animal populations. We investigated the spatial ecology of female mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus; n = 18) equipped with global positioning system collars from 23 February 2011 to …
Factors Influencing Mortality Associated With The Translocation Of Northern River Otters (Lontra Canadensis) In Utah, Casey C. Day, Matthew D. Westover, Brock R. Mcmillan
Factors Influencing Mortality Associated With The Translocation Of Northern River Otters (Lontra Canadensis) In Utah, Casey C. Day, Matthew D. Westover, Brock R. Mcmillan
Western North American Naturalist
Reintroductions and translocations of northern river otters have been a common management practice throughout the United States from the 1970s to the 2000s. Though many reintroductions have been successful, populations are not always monitored or evaluated post-release. From 2009 through 2012, we translocated 27 radio-marked otters into the Provo River watershed in northern Utah. Our objective was to determine what factors influenced the translocation-related mortality of otters. We developed a series of a priori models and used logistic regression to determine the most influential factors. We used Akaike’s information criterion to evaluate relative model support. We found that the univariate …
Ringtail (Bassariscus Astutus) Noninvasive Survey Methods, Density, And Occupancy In Central New Mexico, Usa, Robert L. Harrison
Ringtail (Bassariscus Astutus) Noninvasive Survey Methods, Density, And Occupancy In Central New Mexico, Usa, Robert L. Harrison
Western North American Naturalist
I tested 3 hair-collection devices used for population surveys of ringtails (Bassariscus astutus): PVC pipes, modified cage traps, and triangular Coroplast® tunnels. Coroplast tunnels were the most efficient, with hair obtained by 92% of tunnels tested on radio-collared ringtails. I used the tunnels to survey ringtails on the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge in central New Mexico. Probability of detection in areas where ringtails were present was 74% (95% CI 0.56–0.86). Population density was estimated to be 0.17–0.33 ringtails · km–2 and occupancy (Ψ) by ringtails was 0.56 (95% CI 0.35–0.75).

Western North American Naturalist
As presently recognized, the snake genus Chersodromus (Colubridae) is composed of 2 species, C. liebmanni and C. rubriventris, both of which are endemic to eastern Mexico. Distribution of the genus is largely restricted to the states of Veracruz and Oaxaca and broadly corresponds to the south of the Sierra Madre Oriental and the eastern portion of the Transvolcanic Belt. Chersodromus liebmanni is the more common species of the genus and is distributed in the foothills of several localities in central Veracruz and northern Oaxaca. However, C. rubriventris is restricted to only a few small localities in San Luis Potosi …

Origins Of Specificity During Tdcs: Anatomical, Activity-Selective, And Input-Bias Mechanisms, Marom Bikson, Asif Rahman
Publications and Research
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is investigated for a broad range of neuropsychiatric indications, various rehabilitation applications, and to modulate cognitive performance in diverse tasks. Specificity of tDCS refers broadly to the ability of tDCS to produce precise, as opposed to diffuse, changes in brain function. Practically, specificity of tDCS implies application-specific customization of protocols to maximize desired outcomes and minimize undesired effects. Especially given the simplicity of tDCS and the complexity of brain function, understanding the mechanisms leading to specificity is fundamental to the rational advancement of tDCS. We define the origins of specificity based on anatomical and functional …

Finite-Difference Time-Domain Simulation Of Photovoltaic Structures Using A Graphical User Interface For Meep, Xin Tze Tee, Peter Bermel
Finite-Difference Time-Domain Simulation Of Photovoltaic Structures Using A Graphical User Interface For Meep, Xin Tze Tee, Peter Bermel
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
There is a large and growing need for accurate full-wave optical simulations of complex systems such as photovoltaic (PV) cells, particularly at the nanoscale. A finite-difference time-domain tool known as MEEP offers this capability in principle, through C++ libraries and the Scheme programming language. For expert users, this approach has been quite successful, but there is also great interest from new and less frequent users in starting to use MEEP. In order to facilitate this process, we have developed a graphical user interface (GUI) for MEEP, geared toward simulation of 2D and 3D PV cell geometries, freely available through a …

In Vivo Flow Measurements Of Murine Renal Arteries And Veins With High Frequency Ultrasound, Amy E. Bogucki, Hilary D. Schroeder, Alexa A. Yrineo, Craig J. Goergen
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
The number of glomeruli in the kidneys has been shown to have an effect on the decline in renal function over time (Brenner, Garcia, Anderson 1988). Furthermore, flow in the renal arteries and veins may depend on the number of glomeruli in the kidney. Consistent in vivo measurements of volumetric flow in the renal arteries and veins are difficult to obtain. Thus, the purpose of this study was to develop non-invasive imaging techniques capable of estimating arterial and venous flow to kidneys. A high-frequency small animal ultrasound system was chosen based upon its excellent spatial and temporal resolution when imaging …

Advancement Of Legged Locomotion Models By Including Nonlinear Damping, Ian Abraham, Zhuohua H. Shen, Justin E. Seipel
The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Symposium
Accurately predicting human locomotion has been a goal of various mathematical models. Early canonical models of locomotion were developed to predict the basic features of ground reaction forces (GRF). More recently, modified hip actuated and leg damped locomotion models have been developed to better predict the stability and robustness of human and animal locomotion. Such improvements have resulted in the loss of the characteristic GRF predicted by earlier models. Historically, GRF are among the most common measures to experimentally study human locomotion. Thus, it is important to develop new mathematical models that predict both accurate stability of motion, as well …

Many people suffer from amputation, which affects their lives severely by disabling them from doing chores in their daily life as well as chores related to work and leisure. For the last years, prosthetics’ development has been fast and the devices that are being used now are a miracle compared to what has been used before. But still, the battle is not over yet. Although scientists have techniques and devices to use nerve residues from the amputated limb to control the prosthetic, smaller devices that can detect the signals from those nerves better need to be developed. In this research …
Development Of Anti-Inflammatory Biomaterials For Islet Transplantation, Jessica D. Weaver
Development Of Anti-Inflammatory Biomaterials For Islet Transplantation, Jessica D. Weaver
Open Access Dissertations
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) is a disease characterized by the autoimmune destruction of beta cells within the pancreatic islet. Islet replacement via transplantation of allogeneic islets demonstrates promise as a viable cure for this disease. Despite clinical success in the mitigation of T1DM symptoms, the islet transplant technique has been plagued by issues that limit graft survival and duration. Inflammation plays a significant role in the destruction of islet grafts, particularly during early engraftment. Therefore, strategies that provide alleviation of inflammation could substantially improve graft outcomes, particularly in the design of alternative islet graft transplant environments. This dissertation presents …

Conformational Response To Solvent Interaction And Temperature Of A Protein (Histone H3.1) By A Multi-Grained Monte Carlo Simulation, Ras B. Pandey, Barry L. Farmer
Conformational Response To Solvent Interaction And Temperature Of A Protein (Histone H3.1) By A Multi-Grained Monte Carlo Simulation, Ras B. Pandey, Barry L. Farmer
Faculty Publications
Interaction with the solvent plays a critical role in modulating the structure and dynamics of a protein. Because of the heterogeneity of the interaction strength, it is difficult to identify multi-scale structural response. Using a coarse-grained Monte Carlo approach, we study the structure and dynamics of a protein (H3.1) in effective solvent media. The structural response is examined as a function of the solvent-residue interaction strength (based on hydropathy index) in a range of temperatures (spanning low to high) involving a knowledge-based (Miyazawa-Jernigan(MJ)) residue-residue interaction. The protein relaxes rapidly from an initial random configuration into a quasi-static structure at low …
