Improving the geometric fidelity of imaging systems employing sensor arrays

A sensor assembly to be carried on an aircraft or spacecraft which will travel along an arbitrary flight path, for providing an image of terrain over which the craft travels, is disclosed. The assembly includes a main linear sensor array and a plurality of auxiliary sensor arrays oriented parallel to, and at respectively different distances from, the main array. By comparing the image signals produced by the main sensor array with those produced by each auxiliary array, information relating to variations in velocity of the craft carrying the assembly can be obtained. The signals from each auxiliary array will provide information relating to a respectively different frequency range

Tallgrass prairie soil fungal communities are resilient to climate change

Climate models for central United States predict increasing temperatures and greater variability in precipitation. Combined, these shifts in environmental conditions impact many ecosystem properties and services. Long‐term climate change experiments, such as the Rainfall Manipulation Plots (RaMPs), can be used to address soil community responses to simultaneous manipulation of temperature and temporal variability in precipitation. The RaMPs experiment is located in a native tallgrass prairie at the Konza Prairie Biological Station and has been operational since 1998 providing the potential to address responses to long‐term environmental manipulations. To test whether community composition, richness, or diversity respond to environmental change, more than 40,000 fungal amplicons were analyzed from soil samples collected in 2006. The data suggest that soil fungal communities are compositionally resilient to predicted environmental change. This is the case both for the community composition overall as inferred from ordination analyses as well as analyses of variance for each of the most common Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs). However, while this study suggests compositional resilience, further studies are required to address functional attributes of these communities and their responses to environmental manipulations

A Proposition Concerning Survival: Black Students Occupy the SJU President\u27s Office

In 1970, a group of black CSB/SJU students took over the SJU President\u27s office in an effort to promote change and fight racism. Roske, the CSB/SJU Archivist, will use images and documents from the CSB and SJU Archives to tell the story, and history professor Ken Jones will provide historical context for this key event in the evolution of race relations at CSB and SJU

Adjusting Soil pH on Heavy Textured Soils of the Eden Hills

The Eden Hills Area (also known as The Hills of the Bluegrass) of Kentucky lies adjacent to the Inner Bluegrass Area in a crescent shape within which a large area of several counties occur. Carroll, Owen, Grant, Gallatin, Pendleton, and Robertson Counties occur almost entirely within this physiographic region and several other counties have sizable acreages within it. Soils of the area have formed largely on Ordovician aged calcareous siltstones of the Garrard Formation and interbedded calcareous shales, thin limestones, and siltstones of the Eden Formation. Soils developed from these formations occur on strongly sloping to steep landscapes and have a high clay content. with textures. particularly in subsurface horizons. ranging from silty clay loam to clay. With erosion of topsoil which has commonly occurred. these heavy clayey textures often occur at the soil surface. In addition to this feature, many soils in the area are shallow to consolidated or unconsolidated bedrock
