Abstract

Extreme weather and climate events, such as heat waves, cyclones, and floods, are an expression of climate variability. These events and events influenced by climate change, such as wildfires, continue to cause significant human morbidity and mortality and adversely affect mental health and well-being. Although adverse health impacts from extreme events declined over the past few decades, climate change and more people moving into harm's way could alter this trend. Long-term changes to Earth's energy balance are increasing the frequency and intensity of many extreme events and the probability of compound events, with trends projected to accelerate under certain greenhouse gas emissions scenarios. While most of these events cannot be completely avoided, many of the health risks could be prevented through building climate-resilient health systems with improved risk reduction, preparation, response, and recovery. Conducting vulnerability and adaptation assessments and developing health system adaptation plans can identify priority actions to effectively reduce risks, such as disaster risk management and more resilient infrastructure. The risks are urgent, so action is needed now.

Abstract

BackgroundClimate change is among the major challenges for health this century, and adaptation to manage adverse health outcomes will be unavoidable. The risks in Ontario - Canada's most populous province - include increasing temperatures, more frequent and intense extreme weather events, and alterations to precipitation regimes. Socio-economic-demographic patterns could magnify the implications climate change has for Ontario, including the presence of rapidly growing vulnerable populations, exacerbation of warming trends by heat-islands in large urban areas, and connectedness to global transportation networks. This study examines climate change adaptation in the public health sector in Ontario using information from interviews with government officials.MethodsFifty-three semi-structured interviews were conducted, four with provincial and federal health officials and 49 with actors in public health and health relevant sectors at the municipal level. We identify adaptation efforts, barriers and opportunities for current and future intervention.ResultsResults indicate recognition that climate change will affect the health of Ontarians. Health officials are concerned about how a changing climate could exacerbate existing health issues or create new health burdens, specifically extreme heat (71%), severe weather (68%) and poor air-quality (57%). Adaptation is currently taking the form of mainstreaming climate change into existing public health programs. While adaptive progress has relied on local leadership, federal support, political will, and inter-agency efforts, a lack of resources constrains the sustainability of long-term adaptation programs and the acquisition of data necessary to support effective policies.ConclusionsThis study provides a snapshot of climate change adaptation and needs in the public health sector in Ontario. Public health departments will need to capitalize on opportunities to integrate climate change into policies and programs, while higher levels of government must improve efforts to support local adaptation and provide the capacity through which local adaptation can succeed.

42. An investigation into approaches and pathways relevant to cellular flocculation in CHO cells

Author

Berry, Peter and Berry, Peter

Abstract

Over the last two decades, viable cell concentrations in industrial processes have reached multiples of 107 cells/mL at harvest. Given that many production facilities were built to handle viable cell concentrations in the order of 106 cells/mL, cell concentrations of this magnitude have the potential to cause problems during primary recovery activities as existing processes/equipment may not be able to efficiently remove cells from these high cell concentration processes. Flocculation, the ability of cells to clump together is one solution to this issue. The objective of this thesis was to engineer a flocculating CHO cell line. Three distinct approaches are described. The first approach was the cloning, in CHO cells of four eukaryotic proteins known to promote flocculation. The second approach used inorganic cations as flocculating agents and the third approach utilised proteomics to investigate cellular adhesion in CHO cells. The nature of the proteins investigated in this thesis lead to challenges in achieving ectopic expression in CHO cells. While the addition of FeCl3, MnCl2 and CaCl2 did result in improved rates of sedimentation of CHO cells compared to untreated controls without any negative impact on a human antibodies structural integrity, the antibody yield at 62% for MnCl2,72% FeCl3 and 76% for CaCl2 was not commercially viable. A differential expression proteomic approach identified a cohort of proteins involved in the catabolism of amino acids, the catabolism of fatty acids, cholesterol metabolism, protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum and glycolysis/gluconeogenesis which were significantly enriched following the adaptation from attached to suspension growth. Additionally, the thesis proposes a potential mechanism which CHO cells developed to combat increased cellular stress during this adaptation process. This thesis is an describes the first steps towards engineering a flocculating CHO cell line suitable for use with current commercial proces

46. Predicting lodging in winter wheat

Abstract

Lodging, the permanent displacement of plant stems from the vertical, occurs on average once every four years in UK wheat crops, when it reduces the yield and bread making quality of grain. Lodging usually occurs in the summer and control is most commonly sought by applying growth retarding chemicals in the spring. This thesis develops a method of predicting which crops are prone to lodging so that spring lodging controls can be targeted most effectively. A model was developed in association with this study which calculates stem and root lodging risk from summer-time plant, weather and soil factors. The spread of the plant's root plate, the stem diameter and the number of shoots per plant were shown to have very strong influences on lodging. Structural rooting depth, stem failure yield stress, height at centre of gravity and the rate at which stems oscillate in wind (natural frequency) were also important, but less influential. Methods of predicting the most important lodging-associated plant characters from crop observations in spring were developed from the literature. These were then tested through experiments in 1995 and 1996 with factorial combinations of crops sown in late September and late October, at 500 seeds m-2 and 250 seeds m-2 and with large and small levels of residual soil nitrogen. Early sowing, dense seed rates and fertile soils all increased stem and root lodging, with sowing date having the greatest influence. Plants sown at high densities had small root plates and were poorly anchored; they also had fewer shoots causing a smaller leverage. Early sown plants had shoots with a high centre of gravity and slow natural frequency, causing a greater leverage. Plants sown early on fertile soils had narrow, weak stems. Final shoot number per plant was predicted with good precision (R2=094) from spring plant number m-2 and maximum shoot number m-2 using a model of tiller survival. Stem diameter was predicted with moderate precision (R2=057) from spring canopy size and shoot number m-2, via a calculation of the amount of dry matter partitioned to each stem base. Root plate spread showed a linear and inverse relationship to spring plant density (R2=0.48), mainly as a result of variation in the length of the rigid roots and in the width of the plant base. It is concluded that early season crop observations have the potential to predict the values of the most influential lodging-associated plant characters, from which a model of lodging can calculate the proneness of crops to stem or root lodging in time for remedial action. The next steps would be to develop prediction schemes for other plant characters which influence lodging and test all the predictions in a wider range of crops, sites and seasons.

Abstract

The stellar magnitude scale is grounded in the human perception of starlight and is one of the basic concepts in astronomy. However, its introduction is not easy to incorporate in the classroom. We propose a simple demonstration related to the observational aspect of the stellar magnitude scale. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
