    Sea-level science : understanding tides, surges, tsunamis and mean sea-level changes (2014)
    Cambridge : Cambridge Univ. Press
    Details Availability
    Call number: 13/M 16.89930
    Description / Table of Contents: Understanding sea-level processes, such as ocean tides, storm surges, tsunamis, El Niño and rises caused by climate change, is key to planning effective coastal defence. Building on David Pugh's classic book Tides, Surges and Mean Sea-Level, this substantially expanded, full-colour book now incorporates major recent technological advances in the areas of satellite altimetry and other geodetic techniques (particularly GPS), tsunami science, measurement of mean sea level and analyses of extreme sea levels. The authors discuss how each surveying and measuring technique complements others in providing an understanding of present-day sea-level change and more reliable forecasts of future changes. Giving the how and the why of sea-level change on timescales from hours to centuries, this authoritative and exciting book is ideal for graduate students and researchers in oceanography, marine engineering, geodesy, marine geology, marine biology and climatology. It will also be of key interest to coastal engineers and governmental policy-makers.

    Calcium transport across plasma membrane vesicles isolated from shoots of Stellaria media and Arena sativa (1993)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Physiologia plantarum 89 (1993), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1399-3054
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Plasma membrane vesicles (ca 40% inside-out, after one freeze-thaw cycle) were extracted and purified from the shoots of oat (Avena sativa L.) and chickweed (Stellaria media L.) using the two-phase aqueous polymer technique. In the presence of ATP or GTP, a rapid uptake of 45Ca2+ occurred (0.77 and 0.62 nmol Ca2+ mg-1 protein, for ATP and GTP, respectively, in oat, and 0.53 and 0.51 nmol Ca2+ mg-1 protein, for ATP and GTP, respectively, in chickweed). Nucleotide-dependent Ca2+-transport was sensitive to 1 μM Erythrosin B (with ATP. inhibited by 52% in oat and in chickweed by 72%; with GTP, inhibition was similar in both species at ca 67%); ATP-dependent uptake was greater in oat than in chickweed, but not stimulated by calmodulin. Addition of the calcium ionophore A-23187 resulted in the release of label from the vesicles (41% and 63% release with ATP, and 24% and 52% release with GTP, in oat and chickweed, respectively). The results obtained suggest that Ca2+-transport is independent of the proton pump. In oat, kinetic data indicate a discontinuity in the absorption isotherm at 10 μM free calcium.

    Diurnal variations in hydraulic conductivity and root pressure can be correlated with the expression of putative aquaporins in the roots of Lotus japonicus (1999)
    Springer
    Planta 210 (1999), S. 50-60

    ISSN: 1432-2048
    Keywords: Key words: Aquaporin ; Diurnal cycle ; Hydraulic conductivity ; Lotus (aquaporin)  ;  Plasma membrane ; Pressure probe

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract. The hydraulic conductivity of excised roots (Lpr) of the legume Lotus japonicus (Regel) K. Larsen grown in mist (aeroponic) and sand cultures, was found to vary over a 5-fold range during a day/night cycle. This behaviour was seen when Lpr was measured in roots exuding, either under root pressure (osmotic driving force), or under an applied hydrostatic pressure of 0.4 MPa which produced a rate of water flow similar to that in a transpiring plant. A similar daily pattern of variation was seen in plants grown in natural daylight or in controlled-environment rooms, in plants transpiring at ambient rates or at greatly reduced rates, and in plants grown in either aeroponic or sand culture. When detached root systems were connected to a root pressure probe, a marked diurnal variation was seen in the root pressure generated. After excision, this circadian rhythm continued for some days. The hydraulic conductivity of the plasma membrane of individual root cells was measured during the diurnal cycle using a cell pressure probe. Measurements were made on the first four cell layers of the cortex, but no evidence of any diurnal fluctuation could be found. It was concluded that the conductance of membranes of endodermal and stelar cells may be responsible for the observed diurnal rhythm in root Lpr. When mRNAs from roots were probed with cDNA from the Arabidopsis aquaporin AthPIP1a gene, an abundant transcript was found to vary in abundance diurnally under high-stringency conditions. The pattern of fluctuations resembled closely the diurnal pattern of variation in root Lpr. The plasma membranes of root cells were found to contain an abundant hydrophobic protein with a molecular weight of about 31 kDa which cross-reacted strongly to an antibody raised against the evolutionarily conserved N-terminal amino acid sequence of AthPIP1a.

    Responses of wheat plants to nutrient deprivation may involve the regulation of water-channel function (1996)
    Springer

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract The sap flow (Jv) and the osmotic hydraulic conductance (L0) of detached, exuding root systems from wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Chinese Spring) plants deprived of nitrogen for 5 d (— N) or of phosphorus for 7 d (—P), were measured and compared with controls receiving a complete nutrient supply. In the roots of — N and — P plants, Jv and L0 decreased markedly, but between 4 and 24 h after resupplying N to — N plants (NRS plants) and P to — P plants (PRS plants), Jv and Lo recovered to values similar to those of control plants. Values of Jv and L0 were always greater during the light period than during the dark, due to the diurnal variation of these parameters. Reducing transpiration in the light had no effect on Jv and L0 of — N and — P plants. Sap flow and L0 were also determined using individual axes from plants which had been grown with their roots divided between nutrient-deficient (- N or- P) solution and a complete nutrient solution. Differences were observed in Jv and L0 between axes of the same plant, but stomatal conductance (Gs), which was also measured, was not affected in these split-root experiments. In control plants, Jv and L0 declined sharply to values similar to those of roots from — N and — P plants after HgCl2 treatment (50 μM), but were restored by treating with 5 mM dithiothreitol. In plasma membranes from — N and — P roots, the amount of stigmasterol increased relative to sitosterol compared with control roots. The degree of unsaturation of bound fatty acids also increased, compared with controls, as a result of a decline in the relative amounts of 16∶0 and 18∶0 and an increase in 18∶2. Plasma-membrane fluidity, estimated by steady-state fluorescence polarisation using 1,6-diphenyl hexatriene, showed that the plasma membranes from nutrient-deprived plants were less fluid than those from control plants, measured during both the light and dark periods and in split-root experiments. In NRS plants, the relative abundance of sitosterol increased, so that the stigmasterol/sitosterol ratio returned to a value similar to that of controls. However, in PRS plants, the difference in stigmasterol/sitosterol ratio was maintained, compared with controls. The degree of unsaturation of bound fatty acids, membrane fluidity and the hydraulic conductivity of root systems also recovered in NRS and PRS plants to values similar to those of control plant plasma membranes. The results obtained suggested that — N and — P treatment decreased L0, by reducing either the activity or the abundance of Hg-sensitive water channels. Also, there may be an interaction between the increase in membrane lipid ordering and the decrease in L0.

    Notes: Abstract The plant plasma membrane is the the major barrier to water flow between cells and their surroundings. Water movement across roots involves pathways comprising many cells and their walls. There are three possible pathways which water can follow, (i) a trans-cellular pathway, which involves serial movement into and out from radial files of cells, (ii) a symplasmic pathway through the plasmodesmata, which creates a cytoplasmic continuum and (iii) a tortuous, extracellular pathway through the cell walls, the apoplasmic pathway. In each of these pathways water movement across cell membranes occurs at some stage. The possible role of water-channels in membranes is discussed in relation to this movement. The molecular identity of water-channel proteins in plasma membranes of plants has been confirmed but there remain a number of unresolved questions about their role in cell and tissue water relations, their interaction with the lipid components of membranes and the relationship between water movement through membranes by diffusion in the bilayer.
