Indirect Legacy Effects Of An Extreme Climatic Event On A Marine Megafaunal Community, Robert Nowicki, Michael Heithaus, Jordan Thompson, Derek Burkholder, Kirk Gastrich, Aaron Wirsing

Marine & Environmental Sciences Faculty Articles

While extreme climatic events (ECEs) are predicted to become more frequent, reliably predicting their impacts on consumers remains challenging, particularly for large consumers in marine environments. Many studies that do evaluate ECE effects focus primarily on direct effects, though indirect effects can be equally or more important. Here, we investigate the indirect impacts of the 2011 “Ningaloo Niño” marine heatwave ECE on a diverse megafaunal community in Shark Bay, Western Australia. We use an 18‐year community‐level data set before (1998–2010) and after (2012–2015) the heatwave to assess the effects of seagrass loss on the abundance of seven consumer groups: sharks, …

Measuring Physiological Changes In Response To A Division Iii Collegiate Cross-Country Season, Rachel Nelson Apr 2019

Measuring Physiological Changes In Response To A Division Iii Collegiate Cross-Country Season, Rachel Nelson

Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day (2018-)

Human endurance performance is most commonly predicted from variables such as maximal oxygen consumption, lactate threshold, and running economy. Cross-country running success, specifically at the 6 km distance, depends on interactions of these physiological variables. Proper endurance training combines variations in running speed and distance with appropriate rest to stress the body and develop physiological adaptations. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess how physiological variables change over a competitive cross-country season in Division III female athletes. METHODS: Eleven female distance runners (Ht:162.89 ±7.46 cm; Wt: 58.22 ±8.91 kg; Body fat: 21.5 ±1.65 %; VO2Max: 47.84 ±3.62 ml/kg/min) …

Bacillus Cereus & Bacillus Pumilus Harvested From Copper Roof Inhibit Growth Of Other Organisms, Alison Stiller, Elizabeth Hoppe, Madison Frerk, Anthony Lucca, Thomas Bell

Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day (2018-)

The aim of this project was to isolate bacteria from unusual places, as these bacteria may have distinct adaptations to allow them to grow in challenging environments. Bacteria samples were obtained from the copper roof of Simons Hall in Collegeville, MN during November, 2018. These samples are of interest because bacterial growth is typically inhibited by copper. Once isolated and grown in culture, some of the collected bacterial samples displayed the ability to out-compete other bacterial samples. A polymerase chain reaction was used to identify bacteria samples 1 and 2 as Bacillus cereus and bacteria 4 as Bacillus pumilus. Growth …


Deer Harvesting Total By Districk Since 1997, Hunter Heitkamp Apr 2019

Deer Harvesting Total By Districk Since 1997, Hunter Heitkamp

Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day (2018-)

Since 1997, St. John's Abbey Arboretum has collected data on deer harvested in each district, but that data has never been aggregated and mapped. With the help of John Geissler's data that has been through the years, deer harvesting will be mapped by district, including age and sex information. By examining shapefiles of the districts and adding each yearly excel data by spatial joins, the deer population will be presented through graduated colors. John Geissler and hunters will be informed which districts are more likely to contain deer.

Unisex Restrooms At The College Of Saint Benedict And Saint John's University, Samuel Wetzel

Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day (2018-)

I am doing a project commissioned by Jonathan Nash. He asked for a map to be made of all the unisex restrooms at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University for use and distribution by PRISM. To make my map, I received locations for all the unisex restrooms from both the CSB Facilities and SJU Facilities departments. I took these locations and entered them as points on a campus map of either CSB or SJU, depending on where the restroom was. I then labeled each point by the building it was in and which floor it was on. …

Variation In Aggressive Behavior In Sally Lightfoot Crabs (Grapsus Grapsus) Relative To Age Class, Tyler Hartigan, Benjamin Hartmann, Frances Weyrauch, Alison Stiller, Taylor Schreiner, Meegan Frank

Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day (2018-)

Three beach locations in San Cristóbal, Galápagos Islands, Ecuador were examined to observe aggressive behavior of Grapsus grapsus. Sally lightfoot crabs play a significant role in the intertidal ecosystem, so understanding factors that influence population dynamics is necessary to ensure equilibrium. With regards to age, it is hypothesized that variation in aggressive behavior is present between age groups of Sally lightfoot crabs. It is predicted that intermediate-aged crabs will display aggressive acts most often. Also, crab distribution by age varies with distance from water, and it is predicted that larger crabs will be more prevalent in the wet zones. Further, …

A Comparison Of Circle And J Hook Performance Within The Grenadian Pelagic Longline Fishery, Anthony G. Burns Apr 2019

A Comparison Of Circle And J Hook Performance Within The Grenadian Pelagic Longline Fishery, Anthony G. Burns

HCNSO Student Theses and Dissertations

The development and adaptation of gear technologies to local fisheries has been a management-oriented research strategy commonly used to mitigate the ecological effects of pelagic longline (PLL) gear on bycatch species. Grenada’s PLL fishery primarily targets yellowfin tuna, however while minimal, their bycatch of blue marlin and white marlin exceeds the Total Allowable Catch (TAC) allowed by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT). A switch to circle hooks may benefit these nontargeted, bycatch species by reducing catch rates and haulback mortality, as well as increasing post-release survival. To determine differences in performance, assessments of 16/0 circle …

Indigenous Environmental Network V. United States Department Of State, Seth Sivinski Apr 2019

Indigenous Environmental Network V. United States Department Of State, Seth Sivinski

Public Land & Resources Law Review

Pipelines are an extremely efficient way to move large amounts of oil and gas across long distances. However, pipelines have become a lightning rod for environmentalists opposing the lines’ construction and the energy sector which considers the lines a must to achieve energy independence and security. Pipelines are massive projects often crossing interstate and international boundaries. As a result, they are subject to an extensive amount of government regulation with an accompanying assortment of legal challenges. Indigenous Environmental Network v. United States Department of State is the latest case in the Keystone XL pipeline saga, wherein the United States District …
