Assessment Of The Reach And Ecological Condition Of Freshwater Tidal Creeks In The Lower Coastal Plain, Charleston County, South Carolina With Advanced Geospatial Technology Application, Brian Kelly, Sudhanshu Panda, Carl Trettin, Devendra Amatya, Young Kim

S.C. Water Resources Conference

Tidal freshwater wetlands are the interface between marine and terrestrial ecosystems; hence they are directly impacted by sea level rise and climate change (James & Callahan, 2012). Little is known about the hydro-ecological functions and ecosystem services provided by these important and widely-distributed ecosystems. These wetlands are common in the urbanizing landscape of the southeastern Atlantic coastal plain, as well as other coastal areas. Tidal fresh-water forested wetlands (TFFW) occur in floodplains situated near the coastal zone along freshwater rivers that are subject to tides. They are most prominent along the Southeastern Atlantic lower Coastal Plain, where it is estimated …

Improving Hydrologic Predictions Of Distributed Watershed Model Via Uncertainty Quantification Of Evapotranspiration Methods, S Samadi, Dan L. Tufford, Greg J. Carbone

S.C. Water Resources Conference

Successful initialization and accurate estimation of evapotranspiration (ET) in the coastal plain landscapes are crucial for the prediction of hydrologic variables including streamflow, surficial aquifer lost and infiltration. The aim of this study is to examine the ability of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to accurately represent the characterization of three potential ET methods (Priestley-Taylor (P-T), Penman–Monteith (P-M) and Hargreaves (HG)) using the Sequential Uncertainty FItting (SUFI-2) algorithm during 2003-2005 and 2006-2007 as calibration and validation intervals. The study area was the Waccamaw River watershed, a low-gradient coastal plain watershed in the southeastern US. The results indicated that in …

Bacterial Removal Efficiency Of A Bioswale Located In Lockwood Folly, A Coastal Watershed In North Carolina, Jeffrey D. Barley, Susan Libes, Ryan Winston, Bill Hunt, Bill Hunt, Bill Hunt

S.C. Water Resources Conference

NC Department of Transportation (NCDOT) has obtained, through partnerships with private sector, an engineered soil to enhance removal of fecal bacteria when used in conjunction with stormwater Best Management Practices, such as bioretention cells. The efficacy of this media is being tested at a site in Lockwood Folly, NC where a TMDL for fecal coliforms was approved by the NC Department of Natural Resources in 2010 to address shellfish harvesting impairments in the nearby estuary. Mechanisms for bacterial removal are a\ributed to: (1) retention of particles to which microbes adsorb and (2) mortality due to grazing by protozoans harbored by …

Tracking Fecal Pollution Sources In The Upper Reaches Of The Horse Creek Watershed In Aiken County, Sc, S M. Harmon, A E. Bodie, K A. Fettro, J R. Yates

S.C. Water Resources Conference

The Horse Creek watershed in Aiken County, SC, is known for its history of high coliform pollution. Previous studies have identified one particular tributary, Sand River, as being a major contributor to the upper portions of the watershed, but the source(s) remain unknown. Sand River drains Hitchcock Woods, an urban forest that is heavily used by equestrians; is transected by both old and new sewer lines; and is surrounded by older homes, some of which depend upon aging septic systems. In addition, Sand River in Hitchcock Woods receives an enormous volume of stormflow from the downtown area during rain events. …

Ecohydrology Of A Floodplain Forest: Relationships Between Evapotranspiration, Vegetation, And Topography At Congaree National Park, South Carolina, Lauren H.-R. Senn, Tim Callahan, David Shelley, Joel Gramling, Courtney Murren

S.C. Water Resources Conference

Congaree National Park supports high biodiversity and provides ecosystem services for the surrounding area in the floodplain wetland system, especially in the bottomland hardwood forests which contain some of the last remaining old-growth stands in the eastern U.S. Maintaining the hydraulic functions of this ecosystem is essential not only for the conservation of biodiversity, but also for the ecosystem services it provides, such as nitrification, denitrification, decomposition, removal of organic carbon, and phosphorous uptake and sorption. Because management practices of the park depend on understanding the area‟s hydrology, past research has been performed to analyze the flooding of Congaree River. …

After Fukushima: The Equivalence Of Catastrophes, Jean-Luc Nancy

Philosophy & Theory

In this book, the philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy examines the nature of catastrophes in the era of globalization and technology. Can a catastrophe be an isolated occurrence? Is there such a thing as a “natural” catastrophe when all of our technologies—nuclear energy, power supply, water supply—are necessarily implicated, drawing together the biological, social, economic, and political? Nancy examines these questions and more. Exclusive to this English edition are two interviews with Nancy conducted by Danielle Cohen-Levinas and Yuji Nishiyama and Yotetsu Tonaki.

Kcnj10 Is A Major Type Of K+ Channel In Mouse Corneal Epithelial Cells And Plays A Role In Initiating Egfr Signaling, Lijun Wang, Chengbiao Zhang, Xiaotong Su, Daohong Lin

NYMC Faculty Publications

We used primary mouse corneal epithelial cells (pMCE) to examine the role of Kcnj10 in determining membrane K(+) conductance and cell membrane potential and in regulating EGF/TGFA release. Western blot, immunostaining, and RT-PCR detected the expression of Kcnj10 in mouse cornea. The single channel recording identified the 20-pS inwardly rectifying K(+) channels in pMCE of WT mice, but these channels were absent in Kcnj10(-/-). Moreover, the whole cell recording demonstrates that deletion of Kcnj10 largely abolished the inward K(+) currents and depolarized the cell membrane K(+) reversal potential (an index of the cell membrane potential). This suggests that Kcnj10 is …

The Anchor, Volume 128.06: October 15, 2014, Hope College

The Anchor: 2014

The Anchor began in 1887 and was first issued weekly in 1914. Covering national and campus news alike, Hope College’s student-run newspaper has grown over the years to encompass over two-dozen editors, reporters, and staff. For much of The Anchor's history, the latest issue was distributed across campus each Wednesday throughout the academic school year (with few exceptions). In recent years The Anchor moved to monthly print issues and a more frequently updated website. The Anchor is now published in print twice per academic semester. Occasionally, the volume and/or issue numbering is irregular.

White Fringetree, Chionanthus Virginicus, As A Novel Larval Host For Emerald Ash Boer, Don Cipollini

Biological Sciences Faculty Publications

Emerald ash borer is an invasive Asian pest of ash species in North America. All North American species of ash tested so far are susceptible to it, but there are no published reports of this insect developing fully in non-ash hosts in the field in North America. I report here evidence that EAB can attack and complete development in white fringetree, Chionanthus virginicus L., a species native to the southeastern U.S. that is also planted ornamentally.

Can Establishment Success Be Determined Through Demographic Parameters? A Case Study On Five Introduced Bird Species, Ana Sanz-Aguilar, José D. Anadón, Pim Edelaar, Martina Carrete, José Luis Tella

Publications and Research

The dominant criterion to determine when an introduced species is established relies on the maintenance of a self-sustaining population in the area of introduction, i.e. on the viability of the population from a demographic perspective. There is however a paucity of demographic studies on introduced species, and establishment success is thus generally determined by expert opinion without undertaking population viability analyses (PVAs). By means of an intensive five year capture-recapture monitoring program (involving >12,000 marked individuals) we studied the demography of five introduced passerine bird species in southern Spain which are established and have undergone a fast expansion over the …
