ABSTRACT Black and turkey vultures inhabit all environs of Kentucky, yet nest sites are seldom reported. In this study, 44 nest locations of black vultures (Coragyps atratus) and turkey vultures (Cathartes aura) were recorded in north-central and south-central Kentucky, U.S.A., between 1999 and 2022. Black vultures comprised 65% of the nests found. For both species combined, 64% of the nests were in artificial structures. Artificial structures represented 82% of the black vulture nests and 31% of the turkey vulture nests. Black and turkey vulture nests averaged 481 and 987 m from human dwellings or activity. However, black vultures nested within 91 m, and turkey vultures had a nest 27 m from human activity. Abandoned houses and barns may provide a competitive advantage for black vultures over turkey vultures regarding nesting opportunities.
黑秃鹫和火鸡秃鹫栖息在肯塔基州的所有周边地区,但筑巢地点很少被报道。在这项研究中,在1999年至2022年期间,在美国肯塔基州中北部和中南部记录了44个黑秃鹫(Coragyps atratus)和土耳其秃鹫(Cathartes aura)的巢穴。黑秃鹫占发现巢穴的65%。这两个物种加起来,64%的巢穴在人工结构中。人工结构占黑秃鹫巢穴的82%,占土耳其秃鹫巢穴的31%。黑秃鹫和土耳其秃鹫的巢穴距离人类住所或活动的平均距离分别为481米和987米。然而,黑秃鹫的巢在距离人类活动91米的范围内,而土耳其秃鹫的巢在距离人类活动27米的范围内。废弃的房屋和谷仓可能为黑秃鹫提供了比火鸡秃鹫更有竞争优势的筑巢机会。

ABSTRACT Bat species associated with the Lilley Cornett Woods Appalachian Ecological Research Station (LCW) were documented over two field seasons. Mist netting was conducted during July 2009 [13 net nights], whereas acoustical monitoring was conducted from May–August 2010, with sampling occurring continuously for 85 nights. A total of 26 individuals, representing 5 species were captured: little brown bat (Myotis lucifugus; n = 11), tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus; n = 6), northern long-eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis; n = 6), big brown bat (Eptesicus fuscus; n = 2), hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus; n = 1). There were 34,425 identified echolocation passes identifying 9 different bat species, i.e., tricolored bat, little brown bat, northern long-eared bat, big brown bat, Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis), gray bat (Myotis grisescens), eastern red bat (Lasiurus borealis), eastern small-footed bat (Myotis leibii), and evening bat (Nycticeius humeralis)]. Multiple species detected at LCW have been classified by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) as endangered (Indiana bat and gray bat) and threatened (northern long-eared bat). Since it was first detected, WNS has spread rapidly across North America and is associated with host mortality of >90%. We strongly recommend the Chiropteran community at LCW be resurveyed to assess the impacts of WNS, and that a passive acoustical monitoring program be developed and integrated into the area's long-term management plan.
摘要/ ABSTRACT摘要:本文记录了与Lilley Cornett Woods Appalachian生态研究站(LCW)有关的蝙蝠物种。2009年7月[13个净夜]进行了雾网监测,2010年5 - 8月进行了声学监测,连续取样85个夜。共捕获5种26只:小棕蝠;n = 11),三色蝙蝠(periimyotis subflavus;n = 6),北方长耳蝠(Myotis septentrionalis;n = 6),大棕蝠(Eptesicus fuscus;n = 2),灰蝠(Lasiurus cinereus;n = 1)。共鉴定出3色蝙蝠、小棕蝙蝠、北方长耳蝙蝠、大棕蝙蝠、印第安那蝙蝠(Myotis sodalis)、灰蝙蝠(Myotis grisescens)、东部红蝙蝠(Lasiurus borealis)、东部小脚蝙蝠(Myotis leibii)、夜蝠(Nycticeius humeralis)等9种蝙蝠的回声定位通道34,425条。在LCW检测到的多种物种已被美国鱼类和野生动物管理局(USFWS)列为濒危物种(印第安纳蝙蝠和灰蝙蝠)和受威胁物种(北方长耳蝙蝠)。自首次发现以来,WNS已在北美迅速传播,并与宿主死亡率高达90%相关。我们强烈建议对龙湾湾的翼手类群落进行重新调查,以评估WNS的影响,并制定一项被动声学监测计划,并将其纳入该地区的长期管理计划。

ABSTRACT High-elevation wetlands of the Cumberland Mountains physiographic province hold high conservation priority due to their relative rarity, with little knowledge in the literature related to amphibians' use of these high-elevation habitats. Therefore, forest and wildlife managers have few data to use when designing management guidelines for these habitats. We sampled five high-elevation wetlands across Pine and Cumberland mountains along the Virginia-Kentucky border, United States of America to address gaps in knowledge about these habitats and their use by amphibians. We inventoried amphibian diversity at five wetlands using visual encounter and auditory surveys. We used standardized, area-constrained visual encounter surveys that consisted of searches of all available cover objects within a 10 m buffer of the wetland margin to inventory amphibian taxa at each site. We also used automated digital recorders to record auditory call data from anuran (frogs and toads) taxa. We encountered 18 total amphibian species (eight anuran and ten salamander species), recording numerous occurrences of some species, such as Mud Salamanders (Pseudotriton montanus Baird), that have previously been assumed to be absent from high-elevation wetlands in the Appalachian region. Statistical analyses further indicated high disparity in amphibian biodiversity between sites. Our results indicate that these wetlands should be of high conservation concern and should be given priority in regional habitat management efforts.
坎伯兰山脉地理省的高海拔湿地因其相对稀少而具有高度的保护优先性,而有关两栖动物利用这些高海拔栖息地的文献知之甚少。因此,森林和野生动物管理者在为这些栖息地设计管理指南时几乎没有数据可用。我们在美国维吉尼亚州和肯塔基州边界的松树山和坎伯兰山上对五个高海拔湿地进行了采样,以解决关于这些栖息地和两栖动物利用它们的知识空白。我们利用视觉接触和听觉调查对五个湿地的两栖动物多样性进行了调查。我们使用标准化的、区域受限的视觉接触调查,包括在湿地边缘10米缓冲区内搜索所有可用的覆盖对象,以清查每个地点的两栖动物类群。我们还使用自动数字记录器记录了蛙类(青蛙和蟾蜍)分类群的听觉呼叫数据。我们一共遇到了18种两栖动物(8种无尾蜥蜴和10种蝾螈),记录了一些物种的大量出现,例如泥蝾螈(Pseudotriton montanus Baird),这些物种以前被认为在阿巴拉契亚地区的高海拔湿地中是不存在的。进一步的统计分析表明,不同地点的两栖动物多样性差异较大。研究结果表明,这些湿地应受到高度保护,并应在区域生境管理工作中予以优先考虑。

ABSTRACT Hazeldell Nature Preserve is a rare ecosystem on the Highland Rim of south-central Kentucky. It is the only state-protected site of its kind. This preserve is comprised of two distinct plant communities, including wet flatwoods and wet meadow. Despite its uniqueness, no ecological studies have been conducted on mammals in the past. Currently, two separate studies are underway on mammals. Here we present the results from the first of these that used camera traps set in the wet flatwoods community from 1 February to 28 March 2020. A total of 34,071 photos were taken with 553 having images of 12 species of mammals. The four most photographed species were eastern gray squirrel, Virginia opossum, white-footed deermouse, and white-tailed deer. These four species appeared in 91% of photos. The remaining 49 photos were of eight species including: eastern cottontail, coyote, bobcat, northern raccoon, striped skunk, southern flying squirrel, common gray fox, and eastern fox squirrel. Woodchuck and eastern chipmunk were not photographed during the study, yet each have ranges that include the preserve. These burrowers may avoid the preserve because of the secondary water table and saturated soil that occur during extended periods. The results of this study serve as baseline data for comparison to future camera trapping. Continued photo documentation will be used to identify changes in the mammal species composition of the preserve caused by species range changes in response to various factors, including habitat fragmentation and climate change.
黑兹德尔自然保护区位于肯塔基州中南部高地边缘,是一个罕见的生态系统。它是唯一一个受国家保护的遗址。这个保护区由两个不同的植物群落组成,包括潮湿的平原林和潮湿的草地。尽管具有独特性,但过去没有对哺乳动物进行过生态学研究。目前,有两项关于哺乳动物的独立研究正在进行中。在这里,我们展示了其中第一项研究的结果,该研究使用了2020年2月1日至3月28日在潮湿的flatwoods社区设置的相机陷阱。总共拍摄了34071张照片,其中553张照片拍摄了12种哺乳动物。被拍到最多的四个物种是东部灰松鼠、弗吉尼亚负鼠、白足鹿鼠和白尾鹿。这四种物种出现在91%的照片中。剩下的49张照片是8个物种,包括:东部棉尾、土狼、山猫、北方浣熊、条纹臭鼬、南方鼯鼠、普通灰狐和东部狐松鼠。土拨鼠和东部花栗鼠在研究期间没有被拍到,但它们都有包括保护区在内的活动范围。这些穴居者可能会避开保护区,因为在长时间内会出现二次地下水位和饱和土壤。本研究的结果可作为比较未来相机捕获的基线数据。持续的照片记录将用于识别由于栖息地破碎化和气候变化等各种因素导致的物种范围变化所导致的保护区内哺乳动物物种组成的变化。

ABSTRACT Carrageenan gelation is characterized by a coil-to-helix transition. The conformation the polymer adopts in solution, however, is not yet fully understood at the molecular level. Here, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were carried out on two possible conformations of ι-carrageenan hexamers – a single helix and a double helix. All-atom simulations were carried out using the Carbohydrate Solution Force Field (CSFF) in explicit water (SPC). Dihedral angle distributions from simulations of the single helix and the individual chains of the double helix were compared revealing similarity between these conformations. In the case of the double helix, an overall attractive interaction has been calculated between the two chains, possibly due to contribution from sulfate groups and hydroxyl groups, preventing it from unravelling. Simulation calculations revealed no significant difference in the total energy of the single helical and double helical carrageenan in equivalent systems indicating no strong preference by the polymer to adopt one configuration over the other. It is suggested that the double helix can form in solution due to the dihedral angle conformation within the single helices and is stabilized by attractive interactions identified. An increased understanding of gelation process, including the coil-to-helix transition, in carrageenans can allow for the development of processing methods to control their properties for specific applications.
卡拉胶凝胶化的特点是线圈到螺旋的转变。然而,聚合物在溶液中采用的构象在分子水平上尚未完全了解。本文采用分子动力学(MD)模拟了i -卡拉胶六聚体的单螺旋和双螺旋两种可能的构象。利用显水(SPC)中碳水化合物溶液力场(CSFF)进行了全原子模拟。比较了单螺旋和单链双螺旋的二面角分布,揭示了这些构象之间的相似性。在双螺旋结构的情况下,计算了两条链之间的总体吸引相互作用,可能是由于硫酸盐基团和羟基的贡献,阻止了它的解开。模拟计算显示,在等效体系中,单螺旋和双螺旋卡拉胶的总能量没有显著差异,表明聚合物对其中一种构型没有强烈的偏好。结果表明,双螺旋结构是由单螺旋内部的二面角构象在溶液中形成的,并通过相互吸引作用得到稳定。加深对胶凝过程的了解,包括角叉菜胶的螺旋转变,可以允许开发加工方法来控制其特定应用的性质。

Occurrence of Compsopogon coeruleus (red alga) on Lernaea (Copepoda) from Fishes in the Obion Creek Drainage, Hickman County, Kentucky 肯塔基州希克曼县奥比恩河流域鱼类中红藻在桡足类Lernaea上的发生
Pub Date : 2022-01-28 DOI: 10.3101/1098-7096-82.1.42

ABSTRACT The epizoic occurrence of Compsopogon coeruleus (red alga) on Lernaea (Copepoda) has been only reported once in North America. This occurrence was observed from five minnow species parasitized by Lernaea at Mud River, Butler County, Kentucky. We report a second occurrence of this phenomenon from one blacktail shiner (Cyprinella venusta) and one ribbon shiner (Lythrurus fumeus) from the Obion Creek Drainage in Hickman County, Kentucky. An infestation of Lernaea is harmful and potentially fatal to fish; however, it is unknown if C. coeruleus is harmful to either Lernaea or fish.
红藻(Compsopogon coeruleus)在桡足目动物勒纳亚(Lernaea)上的流行报道在北美仅报道过一次。在肯塔基州巴特勒县泥河地区,对5种被勒纳伊虫寄生的鲦鱼进行了调查。我们在肯塔基州希克曼县的奥比恩河流域报告了一种黑尾闪鱼(Cyprinella venusta)和一种带状闪鱼(Lythrurus fumeus)的第二次发生这种现象。勒纳菌的侵扰对鱼类是有害的,可能是致命的;然而,尚不清楚蓝纹梭菌是否对Lernaea或鱼类有害。

ABSTRACT Freshwater sponges are common inhabitants of rivers, streams, and lakes, but little information exists for the freshwater sponges of Kentucky. During 26 and 27 July 2016, a survey was conducted in the recreational section of the wild and scenic Red River. Thirty-three sponge specimens were collected at five sites from which Radiospongilla crateriformis, Spongilla lacustris, and Trochospongilla horrida were identified. Due to its hydrographic diversity and the considerable diversity of other aquatic fauna, we expect future surveys will reveal Kentucky rivers and streams to support a rich and diversified sponge fauna.
淡水海绵是河流、溪流和湖泊的常见居民,但关于肯塔基州淡水海绵的资料很少。2016年7月26日至27日,在红河野生风景区的休闲区进行了一项调查。在5个地点采集了33份海绵标本,其中鉴定出了标准桡海绵、湖绵海绵和恐怖绵海绵。由于其水文的多样性和其他水生动物的相当多样性,我们预计未来的调查将揭示肯塔基州的河流和溪流支持丰富多样的海绵动物。

Due to its hydrographic diversity and the considerable diversity of other aquatic fauna, we expect future surveys will reveal Kentucky rivers and streams to support a rich and diversified sponge fauna.","PeriodicalId":88551,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Kentucky Academy of Science","volume":"19 73 1","pages":"13 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82170620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT More than half of the entering college freshmen who declare STEM majors switch out of them, especially in quantitative disciplines. This study analyzed survey data from high school science teachers and interviews with college students who switched out of quantitative STEM (Q-STEM) majors to identify (a) pull factors associated with the selection of an original Q-STEM major, (b) key events that college students experienced in their original major, and (c) push factors that contributed to the college students' decision to leave STEM. Results showed that STEM interest was associated with love for the disciplines, high school teacher encouragement, and success in academic coursework. Upon entering college, students faced a number of academic, personal, and faculty-student interaction obstacles that made students feel inadequate, unprepared and overwhelmed, resulting in them switching out of Q-STEM. Implications for student success in STEM were discussed.
在宣布主修STEM专业的大学新生中,有超过一半的人转学了STEM专业,尤其是在定量学科方面。本研究分析了高中科学教师的调查数据和对从定量STEM (Q-STEM)专业转出的大学生的访谈数据,以确定(a)与选择原Q-STEM专业相关的拉动因素,(b)大学生在原专业经历的关键事件,以及(c)促成大学生决定离开STEM的推动因素。结果显示,对STEM的兴趣与对学科的热爱、高中老师的鼓励以及在学术课程上的成功有关。进入大学后,学生们面临着许多学术、个人和师生互动障碍,这些障碍使学生感到不足、毫无准备和不知所措,导致他们放弃了Q-STEM。讨论了STEM对学生成功的影响。
