    Biosphere 2 (B2) PI: Katerina Dontsova, PhD Co-PI: Kevin Bonine, PhD Sponsors: National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF REU) Program BIOSPHERE 2 (B2) Kierstin Acuña The effect of nanochitosan on piñon pine (Pinus edulis) seedling mortality in heatwave conditions University of Maryland, Environmental Science and Policy Mentor: Dr. Dave Breshears, Jason Field and Darin Law – School of Natural Resources and the Environment Abstract Semiarid grasslands worldwide are facing woody plant encroachment, a process that dramatically alters carbon and nutrient cycling. This change in plant types can influence the function of soil microbial communities with unknown consequences for soil carbon cycling and storage. We used soils collected from a five-year passive warming experiment in Southern, AZ to test the effects of warming and substrate availability on microbial carbon use. We hypothesized that substrate addition would increase the diversity of microbial substrate use, and that substrate additions and warming would increase carbon acquisition, creating a positive feedback on carbon mineralization. Community Level Physiological Profiling (CLPP) of microbial activity was conducted using Biolog EcoPlateTMassays from soils collected in July 2018, one week after the start of monsoon rains. Two soil types common to Southern AZ, were amended with one of four treatments (surface juniper wood chips, juniper wood chips incorporated into the soil, surface biochar, or a no-amendment control) and were randomly assigned to a warmed or ambient temperature treatment. We found that surface wood chips resulted in the highest richness and diversity of carbon substrate use with control soils yielding the lowest. Substrate use was positively correlated with the total organic carbon but not with warming.

Special Thanks INTRODUCTION Known unofficially for decades as the Old Pueblo, Tucson is building on its vibrant multicultural heritage to create a more urban, yet uniquely Southwestern-style future. The rest of the nation is taking notice that Tucson is on the upswing—a high quality of life, economic opportunity, lots to do and experience, and a happening dining, arts, entertainment, and local events scene. Tucson is being increasingly recognized for its livability, vitality, and cool factor. Tucson is a place like none other. Surrounded by five mountain ranges—the highest reaching more than 9,000 feet in elevation – and home to giant saguaro and other rare cacti in the heart of the living Sonoran Desert, Tucson enjoys an average 350 days of sunshine each year. Tucson hosts eclectic festivals and events year-round, most of them one-of-a-kind and home- grown, celebrating the region’s history and culture, visual and performing arts, a unique food heritage—Tucson is the first American city to be named a City of Gastronomy by UNESCO— local music, outdoor recreation, nature, science and technology, spectator sports, cycling and running.

  • Biosphere 2 Outreach Scholars Green Fund Proposal, January 2016 Kevin Bonine, Director of Education & Outreach, Biosphere 2 [email protected] 520-621-0232
    Biosphere 2 Outreach Scholars Green Fund Proposal, January 2016 Kevin Bonine, Director of Education & Outreach, Biosphere 2 [email protected] 520-621-0232 Poster symposium & certificate ceremony at Biosphere 2 Summer Science Academy. Note young students in blue shirts presenting their results and proud UA student Outreach Scholars in red shirts. PROPOSAL OVERVIEW Abstract Biosphere 2 Outreach Scholars are the reason the Biosphere 2 Summer Science Academy has been so successful in its first two years. By supporting these UA students, who serve as role-models and mentors for 80-90 middle and high school students, we are taking an important step in providing the educational base necessary for sustainable, evidence-based decisions in all facets of society. UA students will apply to be chosen as Green Fund–supported Outreach Scholars, receive intensive training and a $1,000 stipend for their time in residence at Biosphere 2 in summer 2016, and become better able to navigate the important intersection where science and education meet. This intersection is how sustainability can be realistically pursued and achieved in the future. The UA Green Fund Outreach Scholars will facilitate research experiences, collaboration skills, and leadership development of middle and high school students. Along the way, the scholars will expand their knowledge and capacity in these areas and perhaps pursue scientist-educator as a career path or be inspired to put their scientific training toward solving society’s grand challenges. Project Narrative “It was the most amazing week of my life.” -Biosphere 2 Summer Science Academy Participant The key to a sustainable future is effective education and evidence-based decision making.

    THE STARGAZER www.raclub.org Newsletter of the Rappahannock Astronomy Club No. 1, Vol. 1 May–July 2012 Welcome to the New RAClub StarGazer Newsletter By Jerry Hubbell, President, RAClub Welcome to the newly reconstituted Rappahannock Astronomy Club’s (RAClub) StarGazer newsletter! Although it’s been a few years since our club has had a newsletter, the name maintains continuity with the previous incarnation and also a sense of tradition. With the increasing use of the Internet, our website Welcome to New RAClub Members (Jan–July) (www.raclub.org), and the club’s Yahoo group David Buckwalter Shannon McCurdy (tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/rac_group/), it’s no Joseph Fordham Jessica & Chris Roberts surprise a dedicated newsletter fell out of favor. While David Johannsen Wayne Shields our Internet tools undoubtedly provide a necessary David Marlow David Tillman service and will continue to do so, after using these tools Ernest Mudd over the past 18 months, I felt something was missing. It finally occurred to me that while the RAClub Internet presence is indispensable, the club membership would benefit from a more intimate, more traditional way of receiving club information. I felt we needed one concise place where we could get a good overview of the members’ astronomical activities and provide some much- needed acknowledgement of their fine work. I wanted an electronic document that would serve as summary and an enduring historical record of our club’s activities. The StarGazer will become the first place prospective and new members can go to see the caliber and breadth of work we do on a quarterly basis.

  • Lessons Learned from Biosphere 2 and Laboratory Biosphere Closed Systems Experiments for the Mars on Earth® Project
    Biological Sciences in Space, Vol.19 No.4 (2005): 250-260 © 2005 Jpn. Soc. Biol. Sci. Space Lessons Learned from Biosphere 2 and Laboratory Biosphere Closed Systems Experiments for the Mars On Earth® Project Abigail Alling1, Mark Van Thillo1, William Dempster2, Mark Nelson3, Sally Silverstone1, John Allen2 1Biosphere Foundation, P.O. Box 201 Pacific Palisades, CA 90272 USA 2Biospheric Design (a division of Global Ecotechnics) 1 Bluebird Court, Santa Fe, NM 87508 USA 3Institute of Ecotechnics, 24 Old Gloucester St., London WC1 U.K. Abstract Mars On Earth® (MOE) is a demonstration/research project that will develop systems for maintaining 4 people in a sustainable (bioregenerative) life support system on Mars. The overall design will address not only the functional requirements for maintaining long term human habitation in a sustainable artificial environment, but the aesthetic need for beauty and nutritional/psychological importance of a diversity of foods which has been noticeably lacking in most space settlement designs. Key features selected for the Mars On Earth® life support system build on the experience of operating Biosphere 2 as a closed ecological system facility from 1991-1994, its smaller 400 cubic meter test module and Laboratory Biosphere, a cylindrical steel chamber with horizontal axis 3.68 meters long and 3.65 meters in diameter. Future Mars On Earth® agriculture/atmospheric research will include: determining optimal light levels for growth of a variety of crops, energy trade-offs for agriculture (e.g. light intensity vs. required area), optimal design of soil-based agriculture/horticulture systems, strategies for safe re-use of human waste products, and maintaining atmospheric balance between people, plants and soils.
