The Colonization of Land02:22

The Colonization of Land

37.8K
Changes in the environment of the early Earth drove the evolution of organisms. As prokaryotic organisms in the oceans began to photosynthesize, they produced oxygen. Eventually, oxygen saturated the oceans and entered the air, resulting in an increase in atmospheric oxygen concentration, known as the oxygen revolution approximately 2.3 billion years ago. Therefore, organisms that could use oxygen for cellular respiration had an advantage. More than 1.5 years ago, eukaryotic cells and...

What is Conservation Biology?

24.4K
Conservation biology is a scientific field that focuses on the preservation of biodiversity in order to protect ecosystems while meeting the needs of the human population. Humans require properly functioning ecosystems to maintain our supply of natural resources, including food, medicines, and building materials.

Conservation of Small Populations02:04

Conservation of Small Populations

17.4K
Small population sizes put a species at extreme risk of extinction due to a lack of variation, and a consequent decrease in adaptability. This weakens the chances of survival under pressures such as climate change, competition from other species, or new diseases. Large populations are more likely to survive pressures such as these, as such populations are more likely to harbor individuals that have genetic variants that are adaptive under new stresses. Small populations are much less...

Conserved Binding Sites01:49

Conserved Binding Sites

5.2K
Many proteins’ biological role depends on their interactions with their ligands, small molecules that bind to specific locations on the protein known as ligand-binding sites. Ligand-binding sites are often conserved among homologous proteins as these sites are critical for protein function.
Binding sites are often located in large pockets, and if their location on a protein’s surface is unknown, it can be predicted using various approaches. The energetic method computationally...

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins02:26

Conservation of Protein Domains Over Different Proteins

14.7K
Protein domains are small structurally independent units that are part of a single amino acid chain.  Although these domains are often structurally independent, they may rely on synergistic effects to perform their functions as part of a larger protein. Protein domains may be conserved within the same organism, as well as across different organisms.
A limited set of protein domains often duplicate and recombine during evolution. These domains can be organized in different combinations to...

Non-conservative Forces01:17

Non-conservative Forces

10.0K
Non-conservative forces are dissipative forces such as friction or air resistance. These forces take energy away from a system as it progresses. Unlike conservative forces, non-conservative forces do not have potential energy associated with them. This is because the energy is lost to the system and cannot be turned into useful work later.
Also unlike their conservative counterparts, they are path-dependent; where the object starts and stops does matter. For example, a grinding wheel applies a...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Implementing the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) in river floodplains can initially lower flood stages but eventually increases them. CRP land use also reduces flow velocities long-term, widening flood zones.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Hydrology
  • Ecology

Background:

  • Wetland loss in US river floodplains is significant due to population growth and industrialized agriculture.
  • The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) offers a method for floodplain restoration.
  • Understanding land-use change impacts on flood dynamics is crucial for effective conservation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the hydrological effects of CRP land conversion on floodplain inundation.
  • To assess the viability of Flood Modeller as a flood modeling tool compared to HEC-RAS.
  • To model the impact of introducing new forest areas on the Nodaway River system.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized Flood Modeller and HEC-RAS for comparative flood modeling.
  • Applied hydrological models to the Nodaway River system in Iowa and Missouri.
  • Simulated the introduction of forest areas (CRP land) into the floodplain.

Main Results:

  • Flood Modeller demonstrated viability for US flood modeling against HEC-RAS.
  • Flood stages initially decreased but later rose to higher levels with CRP implementation.
  • Flow velocities decreased long-term due to increased Manning's roughness from vegetation growth.
  • Flood zones expanded following CRP land conversion.

Conclusions:

  • CRP land conversion alters floodplain hydrology, leading to increased flood extent over time.
  • Increased vegetation on CRP lands enhances roughness, reducing flow velocities.
  • Further modeling is recommended to explore impacts on different flood recurrence intervals.
