  Title The ancient Yakuts: a population genetic enigma Type Journal Article

  Volume 370 Issue 1660 Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract (down) This study is part of an ongoing project aiming at determining the ethnogenesis of an eastern Siberian ethnic group, the Yakuts, on the basis of archaeological excavations carried out over a period of 10 years in three regions of Yakutia: Central Yakutia, the Vilyuy River basin and the Verkhoyansk area. In this study, genetic analyses were carried out on skeletal remains from 130 individuals of unknown ancestry dated mainly from the fifteenth to the nineteenth century AD. Kinship studies were conducted using sets of commercially available autosomal and Y-chromosomal short tandem repeats (STRs) along with hypervariable region I sequences of the mitochondrial DNA. An unexpected and intriguing finding of this work was that the uniparental marker systems did not always corroborate results from autosomal DNA analyses; in some cases, false-positive relationships were observed. These discrepancies revealed that 15 autosomal STR loci are not sufficient to discriminate between first degree relatives and more distantly related individuals in our ancient Yakut sample. The Y-STR analyses led to similar conclusions, because the current Y-STR panels provided the limited resolution of the paternal lineages.

  Title Seasonal variation of phytoplankton community structure and nitrogen uptake regime in the Indian sector of the southern ocean. Type Journal Article
  Year 1998 Publication Polar biology Abbreviated Journal Polar Biol.  
  Volume 20 Issue 4 Pages 259-272  
  Keywords Seasonal variation ; Phytoplankton ; Biomass ; Plant community ; Nitrogen cycle ; Absorption ; Southern Ocean ; Indian Ocean ; Algae ; Community structure ; Marine environment ; Thallophyta  
  Abstract (down) This study investigates the dynamics of phytoplankton communities and nitrogen uptake in the Indian sector of the Southern Ocean during spring and summer. The study area is oligotrophic (Chl a stocks < 50 mg m-2); nevertheless, a large spatial variation of phytoplankton biomass and community structure was observed. During both seasons the phytoplankton community in the seasonal ice zone showed higher biomasses and was mainly composed of large diatom cells. However, in the permanently open ocean zone the community had low biomass and was chiefly composed of nano- and picoflagellates. In the polar front zone, although biomass was higher, the community structure was similar to the open ocean zone. The results suggest that the variation in phytoplankton community structure on a larger scale resonates with gradients in water column stability and nutrient distribution. However, significant changes in biomass and nutrient stocks but little change in community structure were observed. Absolute nitrogen uptake rates were generally low, but their seasonal variations were highly significant. During spring the communities displayed high specific nitrate uptake (mean rate = 0.0048 h-1). and diatoms (in the seasonal ice zone) as well as nano- and picoflagellates (in the permanently open ocean zone and polar front zone) were mainly based on new production (mean f-ratio = 0.69). The transition to summer was accompanied by a significant reduction in nitrate uptake rate (0.0048 h-1 ? 0.0011 h-1) and a shift from predominantly new to regenerated production (f-ratio 0.69 ? 0.39). Ammonium played a major role in the seasonal dynamics of phytoplankton nutrition. The results emphasize that, despite a large contrast in community structure, the seasonal dynamics of the nitrogen uptake regime and phytoplankton community structure in all three subsystems were similar. Additionally, this study supports our previous conclusion that the seasonal shift in nitrogen uptake regime can occur with, as well as without, marked changes in community structure.

  Title Is fledging in king penguin chicks related to changes in metabolic or endocrinal status? Type Journal Article
  Year 2008 Publication Gen Comp Endocrinol. Abbreviated Journal Gen Comp Endocrinol.  
  Volume 155 Issue 3 Pages 804-13  
  Keywords  
  Abstract (down) This study examines the possibility that metabolic or endocrinal factors initiate fledging in the king penguin, a semi-altricial seabird species breeding a single chick on the ground. Chick fledging (departure to sea) occurred 5d after completion of the molt. It was preceded by a 16d fasting period and by a 7-fold increase in locomotor activity. From the measurement of the plasma concentration of metabolites and of glucagon and insulin, pre-fledging king penguin chicks were found to adapt to fasting in a classical way, i.e. by sparing body protein and mobilizing fat stores. At fledging, chicks were in phase II of fasting and their departure to sea was not stimulated by reaching critical energy depletion (phase III), in contrast to that which has been reported in breeding-fasting adults. The plasma level of corticosterone remained unchanged throughout the whole pre-fledging period, providing no support for a role of this stress-hormone in the facilitation of fledging. Thus, king penguin fledglings did not appear to be environmentally or nutritionally stressed. The plasma levels of thyroid hormones were elevated during the pre-fledging molt, in accordance with their key role in molt control in adult penguins. These levels declined by the time of the molt end, the plasma level of T4 thereafter being directly related to the time left before fledging. These results do not support the view that chronically elevated levels of thyroid hormones are required for the energy-demanding transition between being ashore and in cold water, but they suggest that the maintenance of high T4 levels may delay fledging.

  Title Identification of spikes associated with local sources in continuous time series of atmospheric CO, CO2 and CH4 Type Journal
  Year 2017 Publication Atmos. Meas. Tech. Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 11 Issue 3 Pages 1599-1614  
  Keywords  
  Abstract (down) This study deals with the problem of identifying atmospheric data influenced by local emissions that can result in spikes in time series of greenhouse gases and long-lived tracer measurements. We considered three spike detection methods known as coefficient of variation (COV), robust extraction of baseline signal (REBS) and standard deviation of the background (SD) to detect and filter positive spikes in continuous greenhouse gas time series from four monitoring stations representative of the European ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation System) Research Infrastructure network. The results of the different methods are compared to each other and against a manual detection performed by station managers. Four stations were selected as test cases to apply the spike detection methods: a continental rural tower of 100?m height in eastern France (OPE), a high-mountain observatory in the south-west of France (PDM), a regional marine background site in Crete (FKL) and a marine clean-air background site in the Southern Hemisphere on Amsterdam Island (AMS). This selection allows us to address spike detection problems in time series with different variability. Two years of continuous measurements of CO2, CH4 and CO were analysed. All methods were found to be able to detect short-term spikes (lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes) in the time series. Analysis of the results of each method leads us to exclude the COV method due to the requirement to arbitrarily specify an a priori percentage of rejected data in the time series, which may over- or underestimate the actual number of spikes. The two other methods freely determine the number of spikes for a given set of parameters, and the values of these parameters were calibrated to provide the best match with spikes known to reflect local emissions episodes that are well documented by the station managers. More than 96?% of the spikes manually identified by station managers were successfully detected both in the SD and the REBS methods after the best adjustment of parameter values. At PDM, measurements made by two analyzers located 200?m from each other allow us to confirm that the CH4 spikes identified in one of the time series but not in the other correspond to a local source from a sewage treatment facility in one of the observatory buildings. From this experiment, we also found that the REBS method underestimates the number of positive anomalies in the CH4 data caused by local sewage emissions. As a conclusion, we recommend the use of the SD method, which also appears to be the easiest one to implement in automatic data processing, used for the operational filtering of spikes in greenhouse gases time series at global and regional monitoring stations of networks like that of the ICOS atmosphere network.

  Abstract (down) This Study Deals With The Problem Of Identifying Atmospheric Data Influenced By Local Emissions That Can Result In Spikes In Time Series Of Greenhouse Gases And Long-lived Tracer Measurements. We Considered Three Spike Detection Methods Known As Coefficient Of Variation (Cov), Robust Extraction Of Baseline Signal (Rebs) And Standard Deviation Of The Background (Sd) To Detect And Filter Positive Spikes In Continuous Greenhouse Gas Time Series From Four Monitoring Stations Representative Of The European Icos (Integrated Carbon Observation System) Research Infrastructure Network. The Results Of The Different Methods Are Compared To Each Other And Against A Manual Detection Performed By Station Managers. Four Stations Were Selected As Test Cases To Apply The Spike Detection Methods: A Continental Rural Tower Of 100m Height In Eastern France (Ope), A High-mountain Observatory In The South-west Of France (Pdm), A Regional Marine Background Site In Crete (Fkl) And A Marine Clean-air Background Site In The Southern Hemisphere On Amsterdam Island (Ams). This Selection Allows Us To Address Spike Detection Problems In Time Series With Different Variability. Two Years Of Continuous Measurements Of Co2, Ch4 And Co Were Analysed. All Methods Were Found To Be Able To Detect Short-term Spikes (Lasting From A Few Seconds To A Few Minutes) In The Time Series. Analysis Of The Results Of Each Method Leads Us To Exclude The Cov Method Due To The Requirement To Arbitrarily Specify An A Priori Percentage Of Rejected Data In The Time Series, Which May Over- Or Underestimate The Actual Number Of Spikes. The Two Other Methods Freely Determine The Number Of Spikes For A Given Set Of Parameters, And The Values Of These Parameters Were Calibrated To Provide The Best Match With Spikes Known To Reflect Local Emissions Episodes That Are Well Documented By The Station Managers. More Than 96% Of The Spikes Manually Identified By Station Managers Were Successfully Detected Both In The Sd And The Rebs Methods After The Best Adjustment Of Parameter Values. At Pdm, Measurements Made By Two Analyzers Located 200m From Each Other Allow Us To Confirm That The Ch4 Spikes Identified In One Of The Time Series But Not In The Other Correspond To A Local Source From A Sewage Treatment Facility In One Of The Observatory Buildings. From This Experiment, We Also Found That The Rebs Method Underestimates The Number Of Positive Anomalies In The Ch4 Data Caused By Local Sewage Emissions. As A Conclusion, We Recommend The Use Of The Sd Method, Which Also Appears To Be The Easiest One To Implement In Automatic Data Processing, Used For The Operational Filtering Of Spikes In Greenhouse Gases Time Series At Global And Regional Monitoring Stations Of Networks Like That Of The Icos Atmosphere Network.
