    Abstract This book presents methods for investigating the effects of aquatic environmental changes on organisms and the mechanisms involved. It focuses mainly on photosynthetic organisms, but also provides methods for virus, zooplankton and other animal studies. Also including a comprehensive overview of the current methods in the fields of aquatic physiology, ecology, biochemistry and molecular approaches, including the advantages and disadvantages of each method, the book is a valuable guide for young researchers in marine or aquatic sciences studying the physiological processes associated with chemical and physical environmental changes.

    Abstract The ocean is home to a diverse and metabolically versatile microbial community that performs the complex biochemical transformations that drive the nitrogen cycle, including nitrogen fixation, assimilation, nitrification and nitrogen loss processes. In this Review, we discuss the wealth of new ocean nitrogen cycle research in disciplines from metaproteomics to global biogeochemical modelling and in environments from productive estuaries to the abyssal deep sea. Influential recent discoveries include new microbial functional groups, novel metabolic pathways, original conceptual perspectives and ground-breaking analytical capabilities. These emerging research directions are already contributing to urgent efforts to address the primary challenge facing marine microbiologists today: the unprecedented onslaught of anthropogenic environmental change on marine ecosystems. Ocean warming, acidification, nutrient enrichment and seawater stratification have major effects on the microbial nitrogen cycle, but widespread ocean deoxygenation is perhaps the most consequential for the microorganisms involved in both aerobic and anaerobic nitrogen transformation pathways. In turn, these changes feed back to the global cycles of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide. At a time when our species casts a lengthening shadow across all marine ecosystems, timely new advances offer us unique opportunities to understand and better predict human impacts on nitrogen biogeochemistry in the changing ocean of the Anthropocene.

    Abstract The use of thin magnetostrictive patches to generate and detect guided waves within the composite samples is investigated for defect detection. This approach has been implemented using SH0 shear horizontal guided waves in both CFRP and GFRP plates. A magnetostrictive patch transducer was able to generate SH0 waves with known directional characteristics. The synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) was then used to reconstruct images of defects using multiple transmission and detection locations. The results for imaging defects in both types of material are presented.

    Abstract A set of experiments was designed and conducted to investigate the vibrational ultrasonic response of a thin magnetostrictive patch bonded to a glass plate, with changes in static and dynamic magnetic fields applied to the patch. Such arrangements are often used as a means of generating guided waves in pipes or plates, by attaching a patch to a sample's surface. The effect of varying the applied static and dynamic magnetic field's amplitudes and directions and the frequency of the dynamic magnetic field was studied. It was demonstrated that the vibration of the magnetostrictive patch could be controlled and enhanced by optimizing the magnetic fields. It was also shown that for low-amplitude dynamic magnetic fields, Lorentz forces generated within the patch and the resonant frequency of the patch could also contribute to the enhancement of the vibration of the patch for low-amplitude fields. For high-amplitude dynamic magnetic fields, the magnetostriction effect can be the main transduction mechanism, which can be optimized for non-destructive testing and inspection purposes.

    Abstract Environmental exposures to chemicals can disrupt gene expression, and the effects could be mediated by methylation. This investigation focused on methylation of genes associated with exposure to metals. Mother-child pairs from three locations in Montana were recruited, and buccal cells were collected for genome-wide methylation assay. Four pairs were from Butte, where there is mining and a Superfund site, four pairs were from Anaconda with a Superfund site, and four pairs were from Missoula with neither a mine nor a Superfund site. Principal component analysis, linear mixed models, hierarchical clustering and heatmap, and gene set enrichment analysis were used to visualize the profiles, identify the top associated methylation loci, and investigate the involved pathways. Distinctly higher or lower methylation in samples from Butte were found at the top differentially methylated loci. The 200 genes harboring the most hypermethylated loci were significantly enriched in genes involved in actin cytoskeleton regulation, ABC transporters, leukocyte transendothelial migration, focal adhesion, and adherens junction, which plays a role in pathogenesis of disease, including autism spectrum disorders. This study lays a foundation for inquiry about genetic changes associated with environmental exposure to metals for people living in proximity to Superfund and open pit mining.
