2016/17 Dry Run Creek Geomorphological Watershed Assessment

Dry Run Creek (DRC) watershed is a primary drainage basin located in northwestern Black Hawk County (Figure 1). It is fed predominantly by agricultural runoff in its upper reaches, and becomes heavily urbanized as it travels through the city of Cedar Falls, before draining into the Cedar River. The stream is perennial, however some are tiled and new segments have developed both naturally and artificially. Re-evaluation of the creek is underway and indicates some changes in urban and rural areas. Data was collected between Fall 2016 & Fall 2017 by University of Northern Iowa geomorphology students, using handheld GPS devices and standardized data sheets

Plant profit maximisation improves predictions of European forest responses to drought

- Knowledge of how water stress impacts the carbon and water cycles is a key uncertainty in terrestrial biosphere models. - We tested a new profit maximisation model, where photosynthetic uptake of CO2 is optimally traded against plant hydraulic function, as an alternative to the empirical functions commonly used in models to regulate gas exchange during periods of water stress. We conducted a multi-site evaluation of this model at the ecosystem scale, before and during major droughts in Europe. Additionally, we asked whether the maximum hydraulic conductance in the soil-plant continuum

Appendix B. EPMA WDS maps: data extraction

Analyses of minerals in chondrules and associated silica-rich igneous rims in CR chondrites. Data are from quantitative wavelength dispersive spectroscopy (WDS) X-ray maps obtained on the JEOL JXA-8530F electron microprobe at the University of Manchester. Powerpoint files show locations of areas extracted from WDS maps: each area is an individual analysis of a mineral grain. Excel files contain extracted data for each location

DNA sequence alignments for FST statistical analysis for three Anopheles species collected from Meghalaya, India.

These files are COI sequences for three Anopheles species, An. pseudowillmori, An. jeyporiensis and An. maculatus.The DNA sequence alignments were used for generating FST statistics in the software Arlequin v3. Each fasta file contains sequences from two different populations, i.e. from two study sites Nonglang and Nartiang in Meghalaya.
