DESCRIPTION:Nicole Conner\, M.S.\, “Adapting New Technologies for Evaluating the Ecology and Distribution of the Diamondback Terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin) in Alabama” \nJoin the seminar via Zoom at: https://auburn.zoom.us/j/4334742503 \nThe diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin)\, an emydid turtle that plays an important ecological role in salt marsh ecosystems\, has declined over the last century and is listed as a Priority One Species (highest conservation concern) in Alabama. Traditional surveying   techniques have been employed to monitor diamondback terrapins on the coast of Alabama throughout the last decade; yet these techniques can be time-consuming\, labor-intensive\, and disruptive to terrapins and their habitats. This study evaluated the potential for UAS technology and eDNA methodologies to effectively monitor diamondback terrapin presence\, abundance\, and/or distribution in salt marsh habitats. UAS-based surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2020 and the observational results indicated that UASs can provide an efficient and cost-effective means of evaluating both the spatial and seasonal abundance of terrapins in the tidal channels of salt marsh habitats. To develop an environmental DNA (eDNA) assay for diamondback terrapins\, primer-pairs were designed to target a sequence of terrapin mtDNA. Then\, a protocol was developed for the efficient collection of water samples and isolation of eDNA. The assay was first tested in the laboratory and was then tested with water samples collected from salt marsh habitats in Alabama. Additionally\, a control eDNA assay for striped mullet (Mugil cephalus)\, an abundant species in Alabama salt marshes\, was developed. Striped mullet eDNA was present in most environmental samples\, but detection ability appears to vary seasonally. The diamondback terrapin eDNA assay can accurately detect terrapin eDNA from the water of captive terrapins in the laboratory\, but the present methodology does not appear sufficient for the detection of the levels of terrapin eDNA in the habitats examined. With improvements to primer specificity and assay sensitivity\, this eDNA methodology may be able to detect diamondback terrapins in their natural habitat. The results of this study suggest that UAS and eDNA technologies both present promising means for the detection of diamondback terrapins in salt marsh ecosystems. These studies provide a foundation for the potential use of these technologies in diamondback terrapin conservation or research\, which could significantly complement and enhance ongoing diamondback terrapin research throughout its range. \nSpeaker Biography: \n​Nicole Conner\, M.S.\, is a researcher and teaching assistant at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. Her passion for marine conservation and management led her to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Marine Science and Biology at the University of Alabama. Before beginning graduate school\, she completed an REU internship through the Duke University Marine Lab and an internship at the Georgia Aquarium. In the summer\, Nicole received her Master’s of Biology from the University of Alabama at Birmingham for her research evaluating the use of drones and environmental DNA for monitoring the diamondback terrapin in Alabama\, a species of high conservation concern. Her hope is that her research can help inform future studies focused on monitoring a variety of threatened and endangered species with sparse and/or poorly understood distributions.

SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Catherine Haase
DESCRIPTION:Catherine Haase\, Ph. D.\, “The energetic costs of disease: a case study on the bioenergetics of white-nose syndrome” \nJoin the seminar via Zoom at: https://auburn.zoom.us/j/89065627233?pwd=YmtxZGRRWkgwUTRQK3ZXb2UyU3VGZz09 \nIn multihost disease systems\, differences in mortality between species may reflect variation in host physiology\, morphology\, and behavior. In systems where the pathogen can persist in the environment\, microclimate conditions\, and the adaptation of the host to these conditions\, may also impact mortality. White-nose syndrome (WNS) is an emerging disease of hibernating bats caused by an environmentally persistent fungus\, Pseudogymnoascus destructans. We assessed the effects of body mass\, torpid metabolic rate\, evaporative water loss\, and hibernaculum temperature and water vapor deficit on predicted overwinter survival of bats infected by P. destructans. We used a hibernation energetics model in an individual-based model framework to predict the probability of survival of nine bat species at eight sampling sites across North America. The model predicts time until fat exhaustion as a function of species-specific host characteristics\, hibernaculum microclimate\, and fungal growth. We found host body mass and hibernaculum water vapor deficit explained over half of the variation in survival with WNS across species. As previous work on the interplay between host and pathogen physiology and the environment has focused on species with narrow microclimate preferences\, our view on this relationship is limited. Our results highlight some key predictors of interspecific survival among western bat species and provide a framework to assess impacts of WNS as the fungus continues to spread into western North America. \nSpeaker Biography:  Dr. Haase received her B.S. in Wildlife from Unity College in Maine\, her M.S. in Conservation Biology at the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry\, and her Ph.D. in Interdisciplinary Ecology from the University of Florida (GO GATORS!). Dr. Haase did her post-doctoral research at Montana State University studying the energetics of white-nose syndrome in western bat species. Outside of research and teaching\, Dr. Haase enjoys hiking\, kayaking\, ice cream\, R code\, and awkward mammals.

SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Andrew Durso
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Durso\, Ph.D.\, “Crowd-sourcing and artificial intelligence for snake identification” \nJoin the seminar via Zoom at: https://auburn.zoom.us/j/89065627233?pwd=YmtxZGRRWkgwUTRQK3ZXb2UyU3VGZz09  \nSnakebite is a neglected tropical disease\, annually responsible for >100\,000 human deaths & >400\,000 victims of disability globally. It disproportionately affects poor & rural communities in developing countries\, which also have high snake diversity & limited access to antivenom. Antivenom can be life-saving when correctly administered but administration often depends on the correct identification of the biting snake. Snake identification is challenging due to snake diversity & potentially incomplete or misleading information provided to clinicians by snakebite victims or bystanders. Clinicians do not necessarily have enough knowledge or resources in herpetology to identify a snake from a carcass or photo. We collected a massive global repository of photos of snakes from various sources\, which is used in the above experiments\, and used the images to measure the accuracy of crowd-sourcing and computer vision at identifying snakes\, with the goal of building the first medical decision-support mobile app for snake identification based on artificial intelligence (AI) & remote collaborative expertise. We anticipate that this tool can reduce potentially erroneous or delayed healthcare actions\, as well as increase knowledge about snake identification and help collect basic information about snake distribution and activity patterns and promote snake conservation. \nSpeaker Biography: \nAndrew Durso was born in New York and grew up in North Carolina. He is a snake biologist with a focus on population and community ecology of snakes\, who earned a B.S. from University of Georgia\, M.S. from Eastern Illinois University\, and Ph.D. from Utah State University. He was based in Jena\, Germany\, and Geneva\, Switzerland from 2016-2019\, where he helped develop crowd-sourced and artificial intelligence approaches to snake identification with a goal of improving snake identification tools for doctors and patients in snakebite cases worldwide. Andrew joined the faculty at Florida Gulf Coast University in Ft. Myers\, Florida\, in January 2020.

SUMMARY:M.S. Seminar:  Hannah Leeper
DESCRIPTION:M.S. Seminar: Hannah Leeper\, Maj. Prof\, Dr. Todd Steury \nTitle: Resource selection at different spatial scales by Black Bears in Alabama \nLocation: https://auburn.zoom.us/j/86262870465 \nDate: Friday\, March 26\, 2021 \nTime: 2 p.m. \nAbstract: \nBlack bears are native throughout Alabama; however\, historic populations have diminished\, in part from decreased connectivity and habitat degradation. At present\, only two small populations of black bears occur in Alabama. One population is growing quickly in number\, while the other is genetically isolated from other black bear populations in the southeastern U.S. Neither population exhibits the spatial growth patterns characteristic of what small populations could achieve. The observed limited spatial growth and genetic isolation could be explained by a lack of corridors\, resulting in decreased connectivity\, or limited population expansion could be caused by human development and a lack of suitable habitat. Therefore\, we created first- and second-order habitat selection models using a Geographic Information System (GIS) for black bears in Alabama in order to understand resource selection at these two spatial scales. The objective of the first-order selection model was to identify potential spatial barriers and areas of population connectivity in Alabama. Models indicated that a lack of available corridors in south Alabama may be limiting gene flow with black bear populations in Florida. Conversely\, potential corridors in north Alabama may be facilitating population connectivity and expansion. The objectives of the second-order selection model were to understand how black bears use human dominated landscapes in Alabama and to understand more about the potential for population range expansion despite widespread human presence. We found that much of Alabama has a relatively low potential for population expansion; however\, there are areas that could provide opportunities for population growth\, allowing bear populations to approach their historic distribution. Understanding potential spatial barriers and population expansion in Alabama could help to inform wildlife managers who are seeking to enhance bear populations and prepare for potential bear population growth in the state and elsewhere in the U.S.

SUMMARY:Ph.D. Seminar:  Diego Gomez Maldonado
DESCRIPTION:Ph.D. Seminar: Diego Gomez Maldonado\, Maj. Prof\, Dr. Maria Soledad Peresin \nTitle: Development of bio-based systems as pollutants removal for water remediation \nLocation: Dixon Executive Conference Room\, 3315 \nDate: Wednesday\, March 31\, 2021 \nTime: 8 a.m. \nAbstract: \nCellulose nanofibril were used as scaffolds for the development of adsorbents for pollutants; in particular\, the cyanotoxin microcystin-LR. The adsorbents were modified to capture the toxin with the inclusion of β-cyclodextrin. The first approach tested was the direct adsorption onto the surface of the fibrils and evaluated on thin films by Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation monitoring and in bulk by the generation aerogels from the modified fibrils which adsorption was followed by High-Pressure Liquid Chromatography. The adsorption occurred in both levels\, with better results in surface level; interestingly the adsorption was limited by the density of crosslinking of the cyclodextrin and the salinity of the media carrying the microcystin. \nThe second approach was the generation of an active coating with oriented β-cyclodextrin immobilized on chitosan. The coating of nanocellulose fibers was done by the passive method of immersion of the material to coat into a solution with a strong ion presence. Moreover\, the adsorption of the cyanotoxin was achieved on thin films as followed on the Quartz Crystal Microbalance. The coating was also tested on 3D structures generated by both typical approaches for nanostructured materials: nanocellulose beads from a bottom-up technique and delignified wood (nanowood) from a top-down. On the tested systems the successful coating was confirmed by different spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques. Furthermore\, the adsorption of the toxin was successful only on the coated materials\, demonstrating that the coating not only modified the surface area but also added the aimed activity to remove pollutants such as microcystin-LR.

SUMMARY:SFWS Seminar Series - Beatriz Vega
DESCRIPTION:The Auburn University School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences Seminar Series continues with Dr. Beatriz Vega\, Research Fellow in the Auburn University Forest Products Development Center. Dr. Vega will present a talk titled\, “Formaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a cost-efficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels\,” on Tuesday\, April 6\, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm. Join the seminar via Zoom at https://auburn.zoom.us/j/9398596544. \nShort Bio of Beatriz Vega \nBeatriz Vega is a Research Fellow in the Forest Products Development Center in the School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences at Auburn University. She has earned her Ph.D. degree from the Chemical Engineering Department in Åbo Akademi University in Turku\, Finland\, and her Master’s Degree from the Organic Chemistry Department in the Faculty of Chemistry\, Universidad de la República (UdelaR) in Montevideo\, Uruguay. The research work during her doctoral studies was mainly focused on fiber engineering using polysaccharide derivatives\, biomass fractionation\, and material characterization using traditional and advanced techniques. The research carried out for her degree from the Organic Chemistry Department in Uruguay focused on biotransformation of the main component in eucalyptus oil using fungi cells under resting cell conditions. As a Research Fellow\, Beatriz Vega is trying to contribute to Dr. Via’s group in SFWS with her biomass conversion\, biomass characterization\, and chemistry background. \n Abstract \nFormaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a cost-efficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels Alfredo García\, Lorena Portilla\, Beatriz Vega*\, and Brian Via. Forest Products Development Center\, School of Forestry and Wildlife Sciences\, Auburn University\, Auburn AL 36849. The rapid advances in technology and the emerging analytical tools are providing new opportunities for the valorisation of under-utilized biomass and creating the best scenario for the development of innovative solutions. At the same time\, these momentous changes are shaping the nature of jobs available\, setting unprecedented challenges for the traditional production sectors. The forest products sector is not an exception and is trying to update their production patterns rapidly and address the changes. It is foreseen that the most important changes in the forest processing sector will occur in the construction sector and that the demand for engineering wood products such as pre-cut lumber\, and wood panels construction. Just in 2017\, the structural panel consumption and housing starts in the US were 20 million m3 and 1.6 million m3 \, respectively\, and have increased over the past years\, with average industry growth of 4.3% in the period 2014-2019\, a market size of $28 billion and industry employment of over 86000\, according to IBIS World industry research report. The engineered wood manufacturers follow strict protocols and regulations to ensure the optimum performance and certify the safety of their products\, either during fabrication or during the long service life of their products\, the manufacturers. In particular\, low formaldehyde emissions are recommended by different agencies such as the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)\, California Air Resources Board (CARB)\, the European Union\, Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED)\, ASTM D6007-14 and ASTM E1333-14. During this presentation\, our research related to a Formaldehyde paper-based device (PAD) for a costefficient detection of formaldehyde emissions from wood panels will be presented. Keywords: forest products\, engineered wood\, paper-based devices (PAD)\, formaldehyde emissions\, formaldehyde detection *ibv0002@auburn.edu
