Project description:These data are raw mass spec files and corresponding mzXML files for time series mass spec data from three urban lakes at Roger Williams Park in Providence, RI. Data files are described by lake location (Pleasure, Polo, Cunliff) and date of sample collection. The Microcystis _Cells file is a positive control of a cultivated strain from the UTEX culture collection (M. aeruginosa UTEX #LB2385) - a known microcystin-LR producer. Information on LC-MS/MS method can be found in the published work.

Project description:The increased urban pressures are often associated with specialization of microbial communities. Microbial communities being a critical player in the geochemical processes, makes it important to identify key environmental parameters that influence the community structure and its function.In this proect we study the influence of land use type and environmental parameters on the structure and function of microbial communities. The present study was conducted in an urban catchment, where the metal and pollutants levels are under allowable limits. The overall goal of this study is to understand the role of engineered physicochemical environment on the structure and function of microbial communities in urban storm-water canals.

Project description:In the Caribbean, green turtles graze seagrass meadows dominated by Thalassia testudinum through rotational grazing, resulting in the creation of grazed and recovering (abandoned) patches surrounded by ungrazed seagrasses. We evaluated the seagrass community and its environment along a turtle grazing gradient; with the duration of (simulated) grazing as a proxy for the level of grazing pressure. The grazing levels consisted of Short-term (4 months clipping), Medium-term (8 months clipping), Long-term grazing (8 months of clipping in previously grazed areas), 8-months recovery of previously grazed patches, and ungrazed or unclipped patches as controls. We measured biomass and density of the seagrasses and rhizophytic algae, and changes in sediment parameters. Medium- and Long-term grazing promoted a shift in community species composition. At increasing grazing pressure, the total biomass of T. testudinum declined, whereas that of early-successional increased. Ammonium concentrations were highest in the patches of Medium-term (9.2 + 0.8 ?M) and Long-term grazing levels (11.0 + 2.2 ?M) and were lowest in the control areas (4.6 + 1.5 ?M). T. testudinum is a late-successional species that maintains sediment nutrient concentrations at levels below the requirements of early-successional species when dominant. When the abundance of this species declines due to grazing, these resources become available, likely driving a shift in community composition toward a higher abundance of early-successional species.

Water and sediment samples were collected after a rain event from Sungei Ulu Pandan watershed of >25km2, which has two major land use types: Residential and industrial. Samples were analyzed for physicochemical variables and microbial community structure and composition. Functional gene abundance was determined using GeoChip.
