Plaque Assay for Murine Norovirus
Abstract. Murine norovirus (MNV) is the only member of the Norovirus genus that efficiently grows in tissue culture 1, 2. Cell lysis and cytopathic effect (CPE) are observed during MNV-1 infection of murine dendritic cells or macrophages 1.ere we describe a method to quantify infectious particles of murine norovirus (MNV), which is the only norovirus that efficiently replicates in cell culture. The plaque assay takes advantage of MNVâs tropism for murine macrophages and can be adapted for use with biological or environmental samples containing MNV.


Norovirus Infection
Multimedia. Norovirus is a very contagious virus that can infect anyone. You can get it from an infected person, contaminated food or water, or by touching contaminated surfaces.The virus causes your stomach or intestines or both to get inflamed. This leads you to have stomach pain, nausea, and diarrhea and to throw up.t is true that food poisoning can be caused by noroviruses. But, other germs and chemicals can also cause food poisoning. Norovirus illness is not related to the flu, which is a respiratory illness caused by influenza virus.

The Tropical Rainforest. The tropical rainforest is a forest type that captures huge attention from the public. It is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating interactions between climate, vegetation and organisms, and soil that exists in the world today.The rainforests which previously occupied up to 24 million square kilometres today occupy only some 10 million square kilometres on either side of the equator.t is a constant cycle. The thin layer of topsoil is the engine house for the food supply for the tropical forest and, together with climate, is responsible for the maintenance of the huge biomass. This is surely one of the most incredible cycles in nature-and it works.


-
Soil fertility in tropical rainforest soils is low. This is because of the warm climate and the availability of water, both of which increase microbial activity, chemical reaction times, and the leaching of soluble soil constituents.lant nutrients are often locked up as part of soil minerals and soil organic matter. The rainforest environment decomposes these more complex, insoluble substances, and the rapidly growing plants of the rainforest take these nutrients up.

The soil in the tropical rain forest is very nutrient poor. It's poor because the topsoil is only one to two inches thick and the soil beneath it is mostly clay and rocks.It â¦ also has been here for millions of years so the soil gas taken quite a beating. Plus, when it rains the water washes away all the minerals.lant nutrients are often locked up as part of soil minerals and soil organic matter. The rainforest environment decomposes these more complex, insoluble substances, and the rapidly growing plants of the rainforest take these nutrients up.


Temperate Rainforests & Their Soil Types
Some tropical rain forests have soil that is very rich in nutrients. These soils have a high nutrient content because many organisms die and other organisms help them decompose and return to the soil. These decomposers include bacteria, insects and, most importantly, fungi.oot Mats. Soil on the forest floor of the temperate rain forests is dark and moist. The reason why this soil has greater richness than tropical rainforests stems partly from the types of trees found there.


Types of Forests

Biome
Most areas of the forest floor receive so little light that few bushes or herbs can grow there. Less than 1 % of the light that strikes the top of the forest penetrates to the forest floor.The top soil is very thin and of poor quality. A lot of litter falls to the ground where it is quickly broken down by decomposers like termites, earthworms and fungi.The heat and humidity further help to break down the litter.ypically, because the heavy nutrient cycling of tropical rain forests are so high, the top soil in these forests is very shallow-perhaps less than a meter.

Symptoms of an ACL Tear
Other symptoms may include immediate swelling, an inability to fully straighten or bend the knee. The most common symptom is the feeling of the knee âgiving outâ or feeling unstable. It is not uncommon for other structures in the knee to be damaged at the same time that one injures their ACL.


Symptoms of an ACL Tear
Symptoms of an ACL Tear. The knee is a hinged joint allowing for flexion and extension only. However, rotation of the Tibia occurs which allows for quick cutting and other agility movements to be made. The ligaments of the knee help to prevent any movement that the knee is not designed for. The muscles above and below the knee joint are the prime movers. These muscles are what allow us to walk, run, jump, climb, etc.


Symptoms of an ACL Tear
If you injure your knee, you lose the ability to perform these activities. An ACL injury normally occurs from some type of excessive rotational stress applied to the knee or a hyperextension injury with a quick movement or sudden stopping. Remember your knee is only designed to bend and straighten.


Torn ACL
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured knee ligament. The ACL attaches the lateral femoral condyle to the tibia just in front of the anterior tibial spine. Some of its fibers also blend into the medial meniscus.

Coniferous Forest Plants of the Pacific Northwest
By Filip Tkaczyk. Coniferous forest plants are a unique and beautiful part of our world's biodiversity. They provide food, medicine, wildlife habitat, and materials for tools, clothing, shelter, and more.There are many different kinds of forest plants that make up the complex layers of life in the Pacific Northwest.his is one of the more common coniferous forest plants, often showing up in open areas along trails and forest edges. Flowers: The flowers are 5-petaled, white and crinkled, up to about 4 cm across. Fruits: A dome-shaped, raspberry-like fruit.

Some of the more common conifers are spruces, pines, and firs. Precipitation in coniferous forests varies from 300 to 900 mm annually, with some temperate coniferous forests receiving up to 2,000 mm.The amount of precipitation depends on the forest location. In the northern boreal forests, the winters are long, cold and dry, while the short summers are moderately warm and moist.oniferous forests consist mostly of conifers, trees that grow needles instead of leaves, and cones instead of flowers. Conifers tend to be evergreen, that is, they bear needles all year long.


Forests
Temperate Coniferous Forest. Temperate evergreen forests are found predominantly in areas with warm summers and cool winters, and vary enormously in their kinds of plant life.In some, needleleaf trees dominate, while others are home primarily to broadleaf evergreen trees or a mix of both tree types.Temperate evergreen forests are common in the coastal areas of regions that have mild winters and heavy rainfall, or inland in drier climates or montane areas.Many species of trees inhabit these forests including pine, cedar, fir, and redwood.The understory also contains a wide variety of herbaceous and shrub species.emperate evergreen forests are common in the coastal areas of regions that have mild winters and heavy rainfall, or inland in drier climates or montane areas.

Coniferous forest biome
A coniferous forest contains evergreen trees that bear cones. Elegant pines grow in this biome, along with spruce, fir, and tamarack. In much of the northern forest, the conifers mingle with deciduous trees, particularly aspen, birch, sugar maple, and basswood.Foundations of today's coniferous forest.he coniferous forest in Minnesota is found in the northern half of the state, but grades into deciduous forest then tallgrass aspen parkland in the northwest. Logging, fire, and development have altered the coniferous forest biome in the past 200 years, yet there are still some untouched conifers existing today.

How the U.S. Draft Works
Registering with the SSS does not necessarily mean you will be drafted when a war breaks out; it is merely a system for keeping your name and address on file. In the next section, we'll see what would actually happen if the draft were reinstated. 1. 2.


THE CIVIL WAR DRAFT IN PLOVER AND STEVENS POINT
Before entering into the effects of the draft on Plover and Stevens Point, I would like to set the direction of this study in its correct historical setting by briefly discussing the impact of the war and draft on the state of Wisconsin.

Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties in Wartime
A Nation at War. As we were during Lincoln's era, we are once again a nation at war, and the laws of war are different.

The Draft and Selective Service
The Selective Service System has changed a lot since the 1970s. A series of reforms during the latter part of the Vietnam conflict changed the way the draft operated to make it more fair and equitable.

It would be the most equitable draft in history.


Conscription in the United States
Public protests in the United States were few during the Korean War. However, the percentage of CO exemptions for inductees grew to 1.5% compared to a rate of just 0.5% in the past two wars. The Justice Department also investigated more than 80,000 draft evasion cases.

Saltwater intrusion
Saltwater intrusion is the movement of saline water into freshwater aquifers, which can lead to contamination of drinking water sources and other consequences. Saltwater intrusion occurs naturally to some degree in most coastal aquifers, owing to the hydraulic connection between groundwater and seawater.Because saltwater has a higher mineral content than freshwater, it is denser and has a higher water pressure.As a result, saltwater can push inland beneath the freshwater. Certain human activities, especially groundwater pumping from coastal freshwater wells, have increased saltwater intrusion in many coastal areas.ecause saltwater has a higher mineral content than freshwater, it is denser and has a higher water pressure.


"Introduction Groundwater Depletion Prevention Get Involved Poster ResumeCauses Areas Being Affected President Bush's Policy Video Description Homepage ReferencesBack to HomepageWhat is saltwater intrusion?Salt water intrusion occurs in coastal freshwater aquifers when the different densities of both the saltwater and freshwater allow the ocean water to intrude into the freshwater aquifer. These areas are usually supporting large populations where the demanding groundwater withdrawals from these aquifers is exceeding the recharge rate. Figure 2 gives a rough illustration of what an overdrawn aquifer may look like. This can cause lateral and vertical intrusion of the surrounding saltwater, and evidence of saltwater intrusion has been found throughout the eastern seaboard of the U.S. ( USGS, 2007 ). The encroaching seawater will encounter an area known as the zone of dispersion, where the freshwater and saltwater mix and form an interface, as illustrated in Figure 3. This interface moves back and forth naturally because of fluctuations in the recharge rate of freshwater back into these coastal aquifers ( Ranjan, 2007 ). Aquifers are naturally replenished by precipitation and surface waters that saturate into the ground and work their way through the soil and geologic material to the water table.Figure 2. Water Ways  ( St. Johns River Water Management District, 2008)Figure 3. Groundwater Flow Patterns  ( Ranjan, 2007)What causes saltwater intrusion?When groundwater levels in aquifers are depleted faster than they can recharge. This is directly related to the position of the interface and determines the amount of saltwater that can intrude into the freshwater aquifer system. Since saltwater intrusion is directly related to the recharge rate of the groundwater, this allows for other factors that may contribute to the encroachment of seawater into the freshwater aquifers. Climatic variables, such as precipitation, surface runoff, and temperature can play a big role in affecting saltwater intrusion. With lower precipitation amounts and warmer temperatures, the recharge rate will be much less due to lack of groundwater present and increased evaporation ( Ranjan, 2007 ). Along with this, other factors may influence the groundwater recharge rate indirectly. An example of this would be the rising carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. Increasing carbon dioxide levels can lead directly to an increase in average surface temperatures, indirectly increasing the evaporation rate and affecting the recharge of freshwater into the coastal aquifers.Figure 4 illustrates a situation where major pumping of well water has lead to a cone of depression in the water table.Figure 4 illustrates a situation where major pumping of the well water has lead to a cone of depression in the water table. When this occurs, it will move the saltwater freshwater interface inland, resulting in a higher saline concentration in the aquifers' water, rendering it useless for human consumption, unless it is treated.Figure 4. Saltwater Intrusion Situation  ( University of Florida, 2000))Another factor that directly affects coastal aquifer depletion is land use planning and management. Different activities such as irrigating crops and industrial processing can require a substantial amount of freshwater resources to be withdrawn. Figure 5 shows the groundwater withdrawals for the southeastern U.S. region in 1985 ( Miller, 2002 ). If certain wells are relying on these coastal aquifers to provide enough freshwater to support agricultural, industrial, municipal, and residential demands, then the recharge rate of the aquifer must be able to keep up. The over-pumping of these coastal aquifers has decreased the underground water table level and decreased the abundance, pressure, and storage capacity of the freshwater aquifer. This will cause the zone of dispersion to move inland and drastically reduce the freshwater that is available from the well and it may result in contamination of the freshwater aquifer and eliminate it as a potential freshwater source.Figure 5. Fresh Groundwater Withdrawals  ( Miller, 2002)Coastal populations continue to grow larger as our freshwater sources slowly decline with the increasing demand for freshwater resources. Coastal areas of the contiguous United States make up only 17% of the land area of our country. Within this small portion of land, over half of the nationâs population resides in these designated âcoastal areasâ. From 1980 to 2003, the coastal population of the United States increased by 28% or over 33 million people. Also in 2003, it was reported that 23 out of 25 of the most densely populated counties in the U.S. were defined as being coastal regions ( NOAA, 2007 ).What are the problems associated with groundwater depletion?Declining Water TablesProbably the most detrimental effect that groundwater depletion causes is the lowering of the water table. The water table is the area underneath the ground that is completely saturated with freshwater and can be drilled into and extracted as a freshwater resource. As the water level declines, extraction of water may prove to be more difficult. If the water level drops below the well, then it must be re-drilled and set at a lower depth. This can be quite an expensive procedure, especially for a residential consumer with an independent well system. As the water table declines, extraction of the freshwater becomes more difficult and expensive, and the rate of water that can usually be pumped out of the well will decline ( USGS, 2005 ). Keeping this in mind, if water tables continue to decrease, extraction of groundwater for all different activities will become increasingly more expensive as time progresses.Currently in Vermont, the price of well drilling is going up. On average, a 250 foot well will cost somewhere around $4,000 ( Helmich, 2000 ). However, the more complicated the project gets due to location, underground geological rock formation, and lower water tables, the higher the cost of drilling a well becomes. If this is true for a non coastal, lightly populated area such as Vermont, you can extrapolate the costs of well drilling in a densely populated, coastal area such as coastal South Carolina and Georgia, where the water table is extremely low.Changing the InterfaceAnother problem that takes place when saltwater intrusion occurs in coastal freshwater aquifers is the changing of the saltwater- freshwater interface. Also known as the zone of dispersion or transition zone, this is the area where the body of saltwater and freshwater meet and form a hydrologic barrier. The natural hydrologic movement of the underground freshwater towards the ocean usually prevents the seawater from intruding into the coastal aquifer system ( Ranjan, 2007 ). Over-pumping of these coastal aquifers will cause a fluctuation in the amount of freshwater moving towards the coastal discharge areas and will allow for the oceanic water to move inland, into the aquifer system. This will result in higher chlorinated concentrations of water and less available storage space for the freshwater in the aquifer. Figure 6 accurately shows how the saltwater freshwater interface can intrude into the confined coastal aquifer. When the interface moves inland, the deeper wells will begin to withdraw saline contaminated freshwater. This means that the water must be treated before human consumption. The other option is to stop using this well until the natural recharge rate of the aquifer can force the saltwater freshwater interface back to its normal position. This process can take a long time and it reduces the freshwater availability of this region.Figure 6. Seawater Intrusion in Wells  ( Washington State Department of Ecology, 2007)What areas are currently experiencing saltwater intrusion?Currently in the U.S., many coastal aquifers are experiencing different degrees of saltwater intrusion. The most commonly studied coastal area experiencing saltwater intrusion on the eastern seaboard of the U.S. is the surficial aquifer system of the southeastern U.S. This aquifer system covers most of Florida and the coastal areas of South Carolina and Georgia (Figure 7). The average thickness of the surficial aquifer is around 50 feet, however, in some places such as St. Lucie County in Florida, it can reach a depth of over 400 feet ( Miller, 2002 ). The Biscayne aquifer is a surficial aquifer located in southeastern Florida. This is the most heavily used water source for Florida, and it spans over 3,000 square miles. In many areas, the Biscayne aquifer has been contaminated by industrial discharge, landfills, and saltwater intrusion ( University of Florida, 2003 ). In 1985, the Biscayne aquifer was providing 786 million gallons of water a day, where public water supply withdrawals were around 569 million gallons a day ( Miller, 2002 ). A combination of large groundwater withdrawals and a new drainage canal system has allowed the freshwater level to decline, promoting the landward movement of the saltwater into the freshwater aquifer and canal systems ( Miller, 2002 ).Figure 7. Surficial aquifer system  ( Miller, 2002)The chart in Figure 8 shows monthly average water levels from 1964 to 2003, for a well in Cook County, Georgia. This well is used for a variety of anthropogenic activities such as agricultural irrigation and municipal and domestic water supply purposes. This image offers a good visual representation of the continuous groundwater declines due to excessive pumping of the local aquifers. Figure 8 can be considered as a general representation of the decreasing water levels of the aquifers located in the southeast region of the United States.Figure 8. Cook County, Georgia Water Depletion  ( USGS, 2005 ).What can be done to prevent saltwater intrusion?People in the Los Angeles basin have been relying on groundwater aquifers as a source of freshwater for a growing population for over a hundred years. There are over 10 million people who reside in Los Angeles County that need these underground freshwater sources. Just around the 1950s, Los Angeles made effort to prevent ongoing saltwater intrusion by developing a series of injection wells. These injection wells were strategically placed with the idea that if they added freshwater into the aquifers at a given location, then they might be able to develop barriers to prevent further intrusion of the saltwater ( USGS, 2005 ). These barriers proved to only be partially effective, and only prevented further saltwater encroachment into the freshwater aquifer. Figure 9 is a basic visual representation of how injection wells function. Once the saltwater intrusion problem has been identified, a series of closely spaced injection wells are designed as a coastal barrier to prevent the intruding saltwater. High quality freshwater is pumped through the injection wells into the aquifer creating a hydraulic pressure ridge that should hinder the further intrusion of saltwater into the freshwater aquifer ( USGS, 2005 ).Figure 9. What is Saltwater Intrusion?  ( USGS, 2005)Other solutions to prevent saltwater in coastal aquifers is being developed. One of the new technologies that are being developed overseas uses what scientists are calling crystallization technology. This is a relatively new approach to preventing saltwater intrusion into coastal aquifers, and has only been implemented in test projects. The basic theory behind this ""CRYSTECHSALIN"" process is that you reduce the permeability of the geological rock formations that act as a barrier for the coastal aquifer. By artificially inducing a crystallized solution of slightly soluble minerals from over saturated solution, we can change the porosity of the rock formations and prevent the saltwater from seeping through the rock into the aquifer. This crystallization process interacts with soil and geologic rock formations turning into a grout like binding agent. This over saturated crystallized solution has flow and seal properties that allow it to penetrate through the soil and rock layers while creating a seal that diminishes the permeability of the rock barriers, hence preventing saltwater from intruding into the aquifer ( Geoservice, 2006 ).What is President Bush's position on the issue of saltwater intrusion?Figure 10. George W. Bush's Manifest Destiny  ( Reidblog, 2007) Figure 11. Cowboy?  ( White, 2007)The Clean Water Act was passed in 1972 with the sole purpose "" to restore and maintain the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of the Nationâs waters."" T he Clean Water Act has provided federal protection against polluting or destroying the streams, ponds, lakes, rivers, coastal areas, and other waters that American citizens may rely on for activities such as: drinking water, fishing, recreation, fish and wildlife habitat, and many other uses ( Earthjustice, 2008). This was a monumental step in reducing and preventing further water pollution.In the summer of 2005, President George W. Bush signed and passed the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This new law was developed to change the energy policy of the United States by providing loan guarantees and tax incentives for various types of energy production. This act promotes a wide variety of innovating technologies to be applied to energy production. One aspect of the of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 is to increase our ethanol production in the U.S. in order to help combat rising gasoline prices and reduce harmful automobile emissions to the environment. Even though this seems like a great idea, it resulted in a huge increase in corn production. The additional corn being harvested for ethanol production requires a substantial amount of freshwater for irrigation purposes, which puts even more stress on the depleting Ogallala Aquifer of the central U.S. In addition to corn irrigation, ethanol production requires three to six gallons of freshwater to produce just one gallon of ethanol ( Neuzil, 2008 ). How can we support this so called ""greener policy"" if it is reducing fossil fuel consumption, yet drastically increasing the demand for freshwater resources that aren't readily available in areas like the central United States?How do I get involved?One of the most productive ways to get involved and try to make a change is by writing an action letter to an associated group or government authority. The first letter is addressed to the Governor of Florida, Charlie Crist. It simply outlines the current saltwater intrusion problems that the Upper Floridian aquifer is experiencing and briefly talks about a study done on two wells that tap into this aquifer. The study shows increasing chloride concentrations in this freshwater aquifer over the past few years, for which data is available for this region. If you would like to know what Florida's Governor Charlie Crist is planning to do about this ongoing problem, please click here to contact the governor and let him know that he must take action!The second action letter is addressed to the Governor of California Arnold Schwarzenegger. In this letter, the pathways of saltwater intrusion into freshwater aquifers are briefly mentioned and the possible solutions are brought to light. This letter talks about past attempts of installing freshwater injection wells and their success. It also asks the governor to reply and let us know what his future plans are to slow down or eliminate this problem.
