ABSTRACT Extreme and unusual ecosystems such as isolated ancient caves are considered as potential tools for the discovery of novel natural products with biological activities. Acti- nobacteria that inhabit these unusual ecosystems are examined as a promising source for the development of new drugs. In this study we focused on the preliminary estimation of fatty acid composition and antibacterial properties of culturable actinobacteria isolated from water surface of underground lakes located in Badzheyskaya and Okhotnichya caves in Siberia. Here we present isolation of 17 strains of actinobacteria that belong to the Streptomyces, Nocardia and Nocardiopsis genera. Using assays for antibacterial and antifungal activities, we found that a number of strains belonging to the genus Streptomyces isolated from Badzheyskaya cave demonstrated inhibition activity against Submitted 23 May 2018 bacteria and fungi. It was shown that representatives of the genera Nocardia and Accepted 24 September 2018 Nocardiopsis isolated from Okhotnichya cave did not demonstrate any tested antibiotic Published 25 October 2018 properties. However, despite the lack of antimicrobial and fungicidal activity of Corresponding author Nocardia extracts, those strains are specific in terms of their fatty acid spectrum.

    Obituary "C" Index

    Obituary "C" Index Copyright © 2004 - 2021 GRHS DISCLAIMER: GRHS cannot guarantee that should you purchase a copy of what you would expect to be an obituary from its obituary collection that you will receive an obituary per se. The obituary collection consists of such items as a) personal cards of information shared with GRHS by researchers, b) www.findagrave.com extractions, c) funeral home cards, d) newspaper death notices, and e) obituaries extracted from newspapers and other publications as well as funeral home web sites. Some obituaries are translations of obituaries published in German publications, although generally GRHS has copies of the German versions. These German versions would have to be ordered separately for they are kept in a separate file in the GRHS library. The list of names and dates contained herein is an alphabetical listing [by surname and given name] of the obituaries held at the Society's headquarters for the letter combination indicated. Each name is followed by the birth date in the first column and death date in the second. Dates may be extrapolated or provided from another source. Important note about UMLAUTS: Surnames in this index have been entered by our volunteers exactly as they appear in each obituary but the use of characters with umlauts in obits has been found to be inconsistant. For example the surname Büchele may be entered as Buchele or Bahmüller as Bahmueller. This is important because surnames with umlauted characters are placed in alphabetic order after regular characters so if you are just scrolling down this sorted list you may find the surname you are looking for in an unexpected place (i.e.

    What If California's Drought Continues?

    August 2015 PPIC WATER POLICY CENTER What If California’s Drought Continues? Ellen Hanak Jeffrey Mount Caitrin Chappelle Jay Lund Josué Medellín-Azuara Peter Moyle Nathaniel Seavy Research support from Emma Freeman, Jelena Jedzimirovic, Henry McCann, and Adam Soliman Supported with funding from the California Water Foundation, an initiative of the Resources Legacy Fund Summary California is in the fourth year of a severe, hot drought—the kind that is increasingly likely as the climate warms. Although no sector has been untouched, impacts so far have varied greatly, reflecting different levels of drought preparedness. Urban areas are in the best shape, thanks to sustained investments in diversified water portfolios and conservation. Farmers are more vulnerable, but they are also adapting. The greatest vulnerabilities are in some low-income rural communities where wells are running dry and in California’s wetlands, rivers, and forests, where the state’s iconic biodiversity is under extreme threat. Two to three more years of drought will increase challenges in all areas and require continued—and likely increasingly difficult—adaptations. Emergency programs will need to be significantly expanded to get drinking water to rural residents and to prevent major losses of waterbirds and extinctions of numerous native fish species, including most salmon runs. California also needs to start a longer-term effort to build drought resilience in the most vulnerable areas. Introduction In 2015, California entered the fourth year of a severe drought. Although droughts are a regular feature of the state’s climate, the current drought is unique in modern history. Taken together, the past four years have been the driest since record keeping began in the late 1800s.1 This drought has also been exceptionally warm (Figure 1).

LIQUID BUSINESS VANESSA CASADO PEREZ* Water is scarcer due to climate change and in higher demand due to population growth than ever before. As if these stressors were not concerning enough, corporate investors are participating in water mar- kets in ways that sidestep U.S. water law doctrine’s aims of preventing speculation and assuring that the holders of water rights internalize any externalities associated with changes in their rights. The operation of these new players in the shadow of traditional water law is produc- ing elements of inefficiency and unfairness in the allocation of water rights. Resisting the polar calls for unfettered water markets, or, con- trarily, the complete de-commodification of water in the face of these challenges, this Article identifies a portfolio of measures that can help get regulated water markets back on a prudent, sustainable track in our contemporary world.

    Caught up in Catch Shares

    by Ecotrust Canada and the T. Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation 2 CAUGHT UP IN CATCH SHARES Ecotrust Canada and the T. Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation April 2014 Several collaborators contributed to this report. Ecotrust Canada: Andrea Robertson (principal researcher and author), Tasha Sutcliffe, Devlin Fernandes, and Brenda Reid-Kuecks. T. Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation: Jim McIsaac, Des Nobles, and Loïs Moriel. With additional contributions from: Kegan Pepper-Smith (UBC Faculty of Law), Dennis Brown, and Michèle Mesmain. Special thanks to our reviewers and our fisherman interviewees. 3 4 FOREWORD Although it is rarely done with reports, the authors of this study feel it important to state our perspective, if you will, at the outset. We do this because we know that a person’s values and beliefs inevitably shape how he or she engages with the world – both in form and in function. We expect that some who are reading this paper will ponder and nod, and others will dismiss our findings out of hand or argue vehemently for other conclusions. We will consider it a success if the work raises eyebrows and sends people scurrying into the datasets to try to discount our analyses. We are hopeful that this report will help fuel a discussion that Canadians need to be having at this juncture – the discussion about the kind of country and the kind of economy we want to grow and foster for future generations. Our positional bias is this: the T. Buck Suzuki Environmental Foundation and Ecotrust Canada actively support the development of resilient local and regional economies, and we tend to focus on the smaller places where people have lived for generations.
