  • State and Federal Actions Will Affect and Be Affected by Implementation Ofthe Village Ofsag Harbor Local Waterftont Revitalization Program (L WRP)
    State and federal actions will affect and be affected by implementation ofthe Village ofSag Harbor Local WaterfTont Revitalization Program (L WRP). Under State law and the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act, certain State and federal actions \\~thin or affecting the local waterfront area must be "consistent" or "consistent to the maximum extent practicable" \"lith the enforceable policics and purposes ofthe LWRP. This consistency requirement makes the LWRP a unique. intergovernmental mechanism for sening policy and making decisions and helps to prevent detrimental actions from occurring and future options from being needlessly foreclosed. \Vhile consistency requirements primarily help prevent detrimental actions from occurring and help ensure that future options are not needlessly foreclosed, active participation of the part ofState and federal agencies is also likely to be necessary to implement specific provisions of the LViRP. The first pan ofthis section identifies the actions and programs ofState and federal agencies which should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the LWRP. This is a generic list of actions and programs, as identified by the New York State Department ofState; therefore, some of the actions and programs listed may not be relevant to this LWRP. Pursuant to the State Waterfront Revitalization of Coastal Areas and Inland Waterways Act (Executive Law, Article 42). the Secretary ofState individually and separately notifies affected State agencies ofthose agency actions and programs which are to be undertaken in a manner consistent with approved LWRPs. Similarly, federal agenc), actions and programs subject to consistency requirements are identified in the manner prescribed by the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act and its implementing regulations.

  • Can Seed Dispersal Mutualisms Amplify Restoration of American Chesnut (Castanea Dentata)? [Year 2]
    A Title: Reseeding restored forests: Can seed dispersal mutualisms amplify restoration of American Chesnut (Castanea dentata)? [Year 2] James R. Wright Collaborator: Leila Pinchot Faculty supervisors: Christopher M. Tonra and Stephen N. Matthews B SUMMARY (100 words) Seed dispersal is a fundamental mutualism between wildlife and trees. Wildlife, such as birds, often cache abundant seed from trees to enable them to survive the winter, and unrecovered seed ensures dispersal and persistence of tree species. Rapid environmental change can disrupt this critical process, potentially threatening the persistence of the ecosystem. Both the loss of American chestnut and the declines in Oak- Hickory forest represent historic and contemporary perturbations to plant-animal interactions. Understanding the capacity of Blue Jays, a prolific seed disperser, to facilitate chestnut and oak dispersal, and their seed preferences, is an important piece to sustaining these forests. C Principal Investigators and Institutional Affiliations James Wright: PhD student, School of Environment and Natural Resources, Ohio State University Cornelia (Leila) Pinchot: Research Ecologist, USDA Forest Service Northern Research Station Christopher Tonra: Assistant Professor, School of Environment and Natural Resources, Ohio State University Stephen Matthews: Assistant Professor, School of Environment and Natural Resources, Ohio State D Duration of Project Three years of research (2018-2020). This proposal resubmission is a funding request for Year 2. E Total amount requested We are requesting $8,080 to support a research technician and supplies to tag Blue Jays and Chestnuts. We recently received additional funding of $49,000 to support a graduate student and field supplies to focus on relationships between Jays and Oaks, and the proposed research here will allow us to continue the novel Chestnut component.

  • GENOME EVOLUTION in MONOCOTS a Dissertation
    GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By Kate L. Hertweck Dr. J. Chris Pires, Dissertation Advisor JULY 2011 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled GENOME EVOLUTION IN MONOCOTS Presented by Kate L. Hertweck A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Dr. J. Chris Pires Dr. Lori Eggert Dr. Candace Galen Dr. Rose‐Marie Muzika ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to many people for their assistance during the course of my graduate education. I would not have derived such a keen understanding of the learning process without the tutelage of Dr. Sandi Abell. Members of the Pires lab provided prolific support in improving lab techniques, computational analysis, greenhouse maintenance, and writing support. Team Monocot, including Dr. Mike Kinney, Dr. Roxi Steele, and Erica Wheeler were particularly helpful, but other lab members working on Brassicaceae (Dr. Zhiyong Xiong, Dr. Maqsood Rehman, Pat Edger, Tatiana Arias, Dustin Mayfield) all provided vital support as well. I am also grateful for the support of a high school student, Cady Anderson, and an undergraduate, Tori Docktor, for their assistance in laboratory procedures. Many people, scientist and otherwise, helped with field collections: Dr. Travis Columbus, Hester Bell, Doug and Judy McGoon, Julie Ketner, Katy Klymus, and William Alexander. Many thanks to Barb Sonderman for taking care of my greenhouse collection of many odd plants brought back from the field.

Accepted: 09 April 2019 Commelina appendiculata C.B. Clarke, C. benghalensis L., C. caroliniana Walter, C. paludosa Published: 16 May 2019 Blume, Cyanotis axillaris (L.) D. Don ex Sweet, C. cristata (L.) D. Don, Murdannia nudiflora (L.) Brenan and Tradescantia spathacea Sw. are investigated using both light and scanning electron microscopy. The seedling morphological features explored include germination pattern, seed shape, surface and hilum, root system, cotyledon type, cotyledonary hyperphyll (apocole), cotyledonary hypophyll (cotyledonary sheath), hypocotyl, first leaf and subsequent leaves. All taxa studied had hypogeal and remote tubular cotyledons. However, differences in cotyledon structure (apocole, cotyledonary sheath), seed, hypocotyl, internodes, first leaf and subsequent leaves were observed. Variations of those characters were used to prepare an identification key for the investigated taxa. Commelina spp. and Murdannia nudiflora of the tribe Commelineae were found to differ from Cyanotis spp. and Tradescantia spathacea of tribe Tradescantieae in the petiolate first leaf with papillate margins on upper surface with 6- celled stomata and the glabrous epicotyl.

  • A Preliminary List of the Vascular Plants and Wildlife at the Village Of
    A Floristic Evaluation of the Natural Plant Communities and Grounds Occurring at The Key West Botanical Garden, Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida Steven W. Woodmansee [email protected] January 20, 2006 Submitted by The Institute for Regional Conservation 22601 S.W. 152 Avenue, Miami, Florida 33170 George D. Gann, Executive Director Submitted to CarolAnn Sharkey Key West Botanical Garden 5210 College Road Key West, Florida 33040 and Kate Marks Heritage Preservation 1012 14th Street, NW, Suite 1200 Washington DC 20005 Introduction The Key West Botanical Garden (KWBG) is located at 5210 College Road on Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida. It is a 7.5 acre conservation area, owned by the City of Key West. The KWBG requested that The Institute for Regional Conservation (IRC) conduct a floristic evaluation of its natural areas and grounds and to provide recommendations. Study Design On August 9-10, 2005 an inventory of all vascular plants was conducted at the KWBG. All areas of the KWBG were visited, including the newly acquired property to the south. Special attention was paid toward the remnant natural habitats. A preliminary plant list was established. Plant taxonomy generally follows Wunderlin (1998) and Bailey et al. (1976). Results Five distinct habitats were recorded for the KWBG. Two of which are human altered and are artificial being classified as developed upland and modified wetland. In addition, three natural habitats are found at the KWBG. They are coastal berm (here termed buttonwood hammock), rockland hammock, and tidal swamp habitats. Developed and Modified Habitats Garden and Developed Upland Areas The developed upland portions include the maintained garden areas as well as the cleared parking areas, building edges, and paths.
