We also used these traits to explain differences in major group distributions along the light availability gradient in 527 lakes in the continental United States. Major taxonomic groups differed significantly in their light utilization traits. Cyanobacteria had the highest initial slope of the growth- irradiance curve (a) and low irradiance at the onset of photoinhibition, indicating adaptation to low light environments. Green algae had the highest maximal growth rates and low a, indicating adaptation to higher light environments. Groups capable of mixotrophy had traits indicative of poor light competitive abilities and high light requirements. Key light utilization traits scaled allometrically with cell size and exhibited trade-offs leading to contrasting ecological strategies; a and cell size were conserved at the highest taxonomic level (domain), indicating a fundamental trait divergence between prokaryotic and eukaryotic phytoplankton.

  • FRUITS) Modeling of Hunter-Gatherer Diet in the Little Sea Micro-Region of Lake Baikal
    Seal or No Seal? A Bayesian (FRUITS) Modeling of Hunter-gatherer Diet in the Little Sea Micro-Region of Lake Baikal. by Talisha R. Chaput A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Anthropology University of Alberta © Talisha R. Chaput, 2019 Abstract The non-specific nature of stable isotope analysis limits interpretive assessments of diet to relative contributions of food sources. In an attempt to address this issue, scholars have focused on mixing models as a potential avenue to provide quantifiable measurements of dietary source contribution. FRUITS is currently a leading model on the market for the application of dietary questions in an archaeological context. The ability of FRUITS to consider non-isotopic priors is paramount to precise estimations in the field of archaeology. Previous work in the Baikal region of Russia has provided an excellent basis for more specific and targeted analyses such as this, which is primarily concerned with characterizing the diets of Early Bronze Age hunter-gatherers within the Little Sea micro-region. This analysis is guided by a set of four dietary hypotheses derived from the current state of literature in the Baikal region. Priors to constrain the model were created through assessment of physiological processes, ethnographic information, and zooarchaeological findings relevant to the subject. Results indicate that the Little Sea model provides estimations of the dietary contributions of the Game-Fish-Seal diet with moderate performance. As more GFS local individuals were rejected by the model than anticipated, further improvements to the parameters of the Little Sea model are evidently required.

Ralpha a Plant Functional Biology and Climate Change Cluster, School of the Environment, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia bCentre of Expertise Microstructural Analysis, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia Abstract The effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on photosynthesis and calcification in the calcifying algae Halimeda macroloba and Halimeda cylindracea and the symbiont-bearing benthic foraminifera Marginopora vertebralis were investigated through exposure to a combination of four temperatures (28uC, 30uC, 32uC, and 34uC) and four CO2 levels (39, 61, 101, and 203 Pa; pH 8.1, 7.9, 7.7, and 7.4, respectively). Elevated CO2 caused a profound decline in photosynthetic efficiency (FV :FM), calcification, and growth in all species. After five weeks at 34uC under all CO2 levels, all species died. Chlorophyll (Chl) a and b concentration in Halimeda spp. significantly decreased in 203 Pa, 32uC and 34uC treatments, but Chl a and Chl c2 concentration in M. vertebralis was not affected by temperature alone, with significant declines in the 61, 101, and 203 Pa treatments at 28uC. Significant decreases in FV :FM in all species were found after 5 weeks of exposure to elevated CO2 (203 Pa in all temperature treatments) and temperature (32uC and 34uC in all pH treatments).

The Councils of the Institute of Mathematics and its Applications and of the London Mathematical Society have awarded the 2009 David Crighton Medal for services to mathematics and to the mathematical community to Professor, Emeritus Professor of Mathematical Physics at the University of Cambridge, in recognition of his contributions to fluid dynamics and mathematical modelling and for his leadership in many positions in UK and international mathematical organisations. Professor David Abrahams, president of the IMA, said, “The contribution Keith made to the UK and international mathematics communities is incomparable. He has worked tirelessly to set up mathematical research in developing nations, and has been a long-term champion of the African Institute of Mathematical Sciences in Cape Town. And as director of the UK’s national institute for the mathematical sciences - the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge - he attracted exceptional programmes from across the full mathematical spectrum. Participants speak with great affection of his constant interest in their programmes and his attention to detail.” Sir John Ball, president of the LMS, paid tribute to Professor Moffatt’s research career, which spanned 50 years. He said, “Keith is one of the world’s foremost applied mathematicians.

Both larval production and midstage growth (, 120 to , 150 mm) of the oyster Crassostrea gigas were significantly negatively correlated with the aragonite saturation state of waters in which larval oysters were spawned and reared for the first 48 h of life. The effects of the initial spawning conditions did not have a significant effect on early-stage growth (growth from D-hinge stage to , 120 mm), suggesting a delayed effect of water chemistry on larval development. Rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) driven by on the North American Pacific coast takes on the order of anthropogenic emissions has resulted in the addition of decades to transit from the point of subduction to the over 140 Pg-C (1 Pg 5 1015 g) to the ocean (Sabine et al.
