In light of the global sea-level rise and climate change of the 21th century, it is important to look back into the recent past in order to understand what the future might hold. A multi-proxy data set was compiled to evaluate the influence of geomorphological and environmental factors, such as antecedent topography, subsidence, sea level and climate, on reef, sand apron and lagoon development in modern carbonate platforms through the Holocene. Therefore, a combination of remote sensing and morphological data from 122 modern carbonate platforms and atolls in the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans were conducted, along with a case study from the oceanic (Darwinian) barrier-reef system of Bora Bora, French Polynesia, South Pacific.
The influence of antecedent topography and platform size as factors controlling Holocene sand apron development and extension in modern atolls and carbonate platforms is hypothesized. Antecedent topography describes the elevation and relief of the underlying Pleistocene topography (karst) and determines the distance from the sea floor to the rising postglacial sea level. Maximum lagoon depth and marginal reef thickness, when available in literature, were used as proxies for antecedent topography. Sand apron proportions of 122 atolls and carbonate platforms from the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans were quantified and correlated to maximum lagoon depth, total platform area and marginal reef thickness. This study shows that sand apron proportions increase with decreasing lagoon depths. Sand apron proportions also increase with decreasing platform area. The interaction of antecedent topography and Holocene sea-level rise is responsible for variations in accommodation space and at least determines the extension of the lateral expansion of sand aprons. In general, sand apron formation started when marginal reefs approached relative sea level. Spatial and regional variations in sea-level history let sand apron formation start earlier in the Indo-Pacific region (transgressive-regressive) than in the Western Atlantic Ocean (transgressive).
The influence of sea level, antecedent topography and subsidence of a volcanic island on late Quaternary reef development was evaluated based on six rotary core transects on the barrier and fringing reefs of Bora Bora. This study was designed to revalue the Darwinian model, the subsidence theory of reef development, which genetically connects fringing reef, barrier reef and atoll development by continuous subsidence of the volcanic basement. Postglacial sea-level rise, and to a minor degree subsidence, were identified as major factors controlling Holocene reef development in that they have created accommodation space and controlled reef architecture. Antecedent topography was also an important factor because the Holocene barrier reef is located on a Pleistocene barrier reef forming a topographic high. Pleistocene soil and basalt formed the pedestal of the fringing reef. Uranium-Thorium dating shows that barrier and fringing reefs developed contemporaneously during the Holocene.
In the barrier–reef lagoon of Bora Bora, the influence of environmental factors, such as sea level and climate, tsunamis and tropical cyclones controlling Holocene sediment dynamics was evaluated based on sedimentological, paleontological, geochronological and geochemical data. The lagoonal succession comprises mixed carbonate-siliciclastic sediments overlying peat and Pleistocene soil. The multi-proxy data set shows variations in grain-size, total organic carbon (proxy for primary productivity), Ca and Cl element intensities (proxies for carbonate availability and lagoonal salinity) during the mid-late Holocene. These patterns could result from event sedimentation during storms and correlate to event deposits found in nearby Tahaa, probably induced by elevated cyclone activity. Accordingly, elevated erosion and runoff from the volcanic island and lower lagoonal salinity would be a result of rainfall during repeated cyclone landfall. However, Ti/Ca and Fe/Ca ratios as proxies for terrigenous sediment delivery peaked out in the early Holocene and declined since the mid-Holocene. Benthic foraminifera assemblages do not indicate reef-to-lagoon transport. Alternatively, higher and sustained hydrodynamic energy is probably induced by stronger trade winds and a higher-than-present sea level during the mid-late Holocene. The increase in mid-late Holocene sediment dynamics within the back-reef lagoon is supposed to display sediment-load shedding of sand aprons due to the oversteepening of slopes at sand apron/lagoon edges during their progradation rather than an increase in tropical storm activity during that time.
The influence of sea-level and climate changes on sediment import, composition and distribution in the Bora Bora lagoon during the Holocene is validated. Lagoonal facies succession comprises siderite-rich marly wackestones, foraminifera-siderite wackestones, mollusk-foraminifera marly packstones and mollusk-rich wackestones during the early-mid Holocene, and mudstones since the mid-late Holocene. During the early Holocene, enhanced weathering and iron input from the volcanic island due to wetter climate conditions led to the formation of siderite within the lagoonal sediments. The geochemical composition of these siderites shows that precipitation was driven by microbial activity and iron reduction in the presence of dissolved bicarbonate. Chemical substitutions at grain margins illustrate changes in the oxidation state and probably reflect changes in pore water chemistry due to sea-level rise and climate change (rainfall). In the late Holocene, sediment transport into the lagoon is hampered by motus on the windward side of the lagoon, which led to early submarine lithification within the lagoon.
The Earth’s surface condition we find today is a result of long exposure to metabolism of life forms. Particularly, molecular oxygen in the atmosphere is a feature which developed over time. The first substantial and lasting rise of atmospheric oxygen level happened ≈ 2.5 Ga ago, but localities are reported where transiently elevated oxygen levels appeared before this time-point. To trace the timing and circumstances of the earliest availability of free oxygen in the atmosphere is important to understand the habitats of early microbial life forms on Earth.
This thesis focuses to obtain information of oxygen levels and the related atmospheric cycling of metals in sediments of the 3.5 to 3.2 Ga Barberton Greenstone Belt. First, as iron was a ubiquitous constituent of Archean seawater, I investigated its isotopic composition in minerals of chemical sediments. Hereby, I tried to resolve the changes within the water basin on small scale sedimentary sequence cycles. Second, I focused on the minor constituents of Archean seawater. The Re-Os geochronologic system and the abundance patterns of the platinum-group elements were chosen to integrate information of oxygen promoted weathering of a large source area. To integrate information of a large time interval, the isotopes of uranium were investigated over a large stratigraphic section.
The two key findings of this thesis are:
• Quantitative oxidation of ferrous iron in surface layers of Paleoarchean seawater occurred during the onset and termination of hydrothermal FeIIaq delivery into shallow waters.
• Paleoarchean sedimentary successions of the Barberton Greenstone Belt lack any evidence of transient basin-scale oxygenation.
The Manzimnyama Iron Formation (IF, Fig Tree Group, Barberton Greenstone Belt, South Africa) has been deciphered to exist of cyclic stacks of lithostratigraphic units with varying amounts of iron oxide and carbonate minerals. In-situ femtosecond-Laser-Ablation ICP-MS iron isotope measurements showed that the majority of siderite (γ56Fe ≈ −0.5 ‰) precipitated directly from seawater of γ56Fe ≈ 0 ‰. Ferric iron from the surface layers is preserved in ≤ 1μ m hematite and in magnetite that has been grown within the consolidated sediment. During FeIIaq events, fine-grained hematite (γ56Fe ≈ 2.2 ‰) and magnetite (γ56Fe 0.5 to 0.8 ‰) indicate oxygen levels in surface waters of lower than 0.0002 μM. Upon onset and termination of iron oxide abundance, magnetite with γ56Fe ≈ 0 ‰ indicates that low concentrations of FeIIaq in surface waters were oxidized quantitatively. These observations demonstrate the existence of iron oxidation in Paleoarchean surface waters independent of FeIIaq concentration. This is the first investigation of Paleoarchean IF showing that lithostratigraphic cyclicity can be traced in iron isotopic composition of oxide minerals.
ID-ICP-MS measurement of Re, Ir, Ru, Pt and Pd, trace element (SF-ICP-MS) and ID-MCICP- MS uranium isotope determination have been applied to carbonaceous shale of the Mapepe Fm. (Fig Tree Group) after inverse Aqua Regia leaching and bulk digestion. The sediments reveal a silicified fraction which exhibits a seawater REE signature and a mixture of detrital and meteoritic PGE. Neither enrichment of the redox-sensitive elements Re or Mo nor fractionated uranium isotopes have been found on a stratigraphic interval of several hundred meters. The non-silica fraction shows no depletion of Re which indicates that the detrital material had no contact to oxidizing fluids. ID-TIMS measurements of Re and Os after the CrO3-SO4 Carius Tube method of two sample intervals showed that the Re-Os isotopic systems of the non-silica fractions are identical to two komatiite occurrences. Weltevreden Fm. and Komati Fm. rocks were uplifted, eroded and transported to the deep part of the sedimentary basin without any change to the Re-Os system. Negative fractionated uranium isotopes (γ238U = −0.41 ± 0.01 ‰) associated with detrital Ba-Cr-U occurrences suggest the existence of distal redox-processes that involve uranium species. This study demonstrates that over the time of exposure and deposition of the Mapepe Fm. sedimentation, free oxygen was not available for weathering in the catchment area.
This thesis describes the adaptation of Acinetobacter species to dry environments with the soil bacterium A. baylyi and the opportunistic hospital pathogen A. baumanii in its focus. The adaptation of A. baylyi and A. baumannii to osmotic stress was investigated. Compatible solutes that were uptaken from the environment or synthesized de novo to cope with the loss of water at high salinity were identified. The corresponding transporters and enzymes involved were characzerized. In addition, the desiccation resistance of A. baumannii was analyzed to elucidate its survival in hospital environments. The usage of compatible solutes during desiccation stress was analyzed and proteins that were produced were identified.
The availability of water is essential for bacterial life and if environmental conditions are awkward, bacteria have to cope with high salinitiy to prevent loss of water. In this thesis it was shown that A. baylyi synthesizes glutamate and mannitol de novo as compatible solutes in response to osmotic stress to balance the osmotic potential. The pathway for mannitol biosynthesis from Fructose-6-Phosphate (F-6-P) via Mannitol-1-Phosphate (Mtl-1-P) was elucidated and the isolation and characterization of a novel type of biofunctional enzyme was described. Interestingly, the unique bifunctional enzyme MtlD, acting as dehydrogenase and phosphatase, mediates both steps of the mannitol biosynthesis pathway. This enzyme catalyzes the reduction of F-6-P to Mtl-1-P with NADPH as reducing equivalent. The dehydrogenase activity of MtlD was salt dependent and the phosphatase activity was dependent on Mg2+ as cofactor. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that MtlD is broadly distributed among other Acinetobacter strains but not in other phylogenetic tribes.
In this thesis it is also described that, besides de novo synthesis of compatible solutes, A. baylyi takes up glycine betaine (GB) or its precursor choline by different transport systems and uses this solutes as osmoprotectants. The uptake of GB occurs via a secondary transporter (ACIAD3460) of the BCCT family. Choline is taken up as precursor and oxidized to GB by two dehydrogenases. The uptake and use of choline as GB precursor involves two transporters, whose genes are encoded in the bet cluster (BetT1, BetT2), two dehydrogenases (BetA, BetB) and a regulatory protein (BetI). Both transporters differ from each other in structure and function: BetT1 is osmo-independent and active independently of osmotic stress. BetT2 contains - in contrast to BetT1 - a long C-terminal domain for osmo-sensing and its activity highly increases in the presence of high osmolarity. The oxidation of choline occurs independently of the osmolarity of the medium but in the absence of salt stress, GB is exported. In contrast, in the presence of high salinity, GB is accumulated in the cytoplasm to balance the osmotic potential in order to prevent loss of water. The regulation of both transporters, the uptake of choline independently of the osmolarity and the export of GB under isoosmotic conditions are regulated by the transcriptional regulator BetI.
A. baumannii ATCC 19606 was also shown to cope with high salinity. Analogously to A. baylyi, A. baumannii ATCC19606 synthesizes glutamate and mannitol de novo in response to osmotic stress. The genes for the synthesis of these compatible solutes are identical to those found in A. baylyi. This suggests that the solute biosynthesis pathways of A. baumannii and A. baylyi are identical. A. baumannii was also able to take up GB and choline in response to osmotic stress and growth at high salinity was restored upon addition of GB and its precursor choline. The bet cluster was also present in the genome A. baumannii and also contains the two different choline transporters BetT1 and BetT2.
Our suggestion that choline or GB or the utilization of phosphatidylcholine as carbon source led to an increase in the survival under desiccation stress was not confirmed. However, 2D analysis of proteins produced during desiccation stress in A. baumannii led to elevated amounts of proteins implicated in biofilm formation, regulation, cell morphology and general stress response, such as Hsp60 or superoxide dismutase, both might play a role in general stress protection.
Soil fungal communities are an essential element in the terrestrial ecosystem, however their response to ongoing anthropogenic climate change is currently poorly understood. Fungi are one of the most abundant groups of microbes in soil, they are mainly responsible for the decomposition of organic matter (Baldrian et al., 2012; Buée et al., 2009). By binding carbon in soil, fungi thus maintain an important role in the global carbon cycle (Bardgett et al., 2008). Future climates are likely to influence the communities of belowground microbial organisms (Castro et al., 2010; Deacon et al., 2006). However, how these communities are affected in their diversity, composition, and function after environmental perturbation is insufficiently known.
Molecular techniques using high-throughput sequencing are presently revolutionizing the analysis of complex communities, such as soil fungi. High-throughput metabarcoding enables the recovery of DNA sequence data directly from environmental samples, and DNA sequences from entire communities present in these samples can be simultaneously recovered through massively parallel sequencing reactions (Bik et al., 2012; Taberlet et al., 2012b). This results in more accurate estimation of diversity and community composition and thus provides unprecedented insight into cryptic communities (Lindahl and Kuske, 2014). Yet, challenges associated with these novel techniques include the bioinformatic processing, and the ecological analyses of the large amount of sequence data generated. Most biologists without explicit training in bioinformatics spend a fair amount of time learning how to filter raw sequence data, and customize bioinformatics pipelines specific to their project. To improve the quality of data treatment, and decrease the time needed for the analyses, it is desirable to have bioinformatics pipelines that are easy to use, well explained to researchers not trained in bioinformatics, and adaptable to individual research needs...
The PANDA experiment will be one of the flagship experiments at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) in Darmstadt, Germany. It is a versatile detector dedicated to topics in hadron physics such as charmonium spectroscopy and nucleon structure. A DIRC counter will deliver hadronic particle identification in the barrel part of the PANDA target spectrometer and will cleanly separate kaons with momenta up to 3.5 GeV/c from a large pion background. An alternative DIRC design option, using wide Cherenkov radiator plates instead of narrow bars, would significantly reduce the cost of the system. Compact fused silica photon prisms have many advantages over the traditional stand-off boxes filled with liquid. This work describes the study of these design options, which are important advancements of the DIRC technology in terms of cost and performance. Several new reconstruction methods were developed and will be presented. Prototypes of the DIRC components have been built and tested in particle beam, and the new concepts and approaches were applied. An evaluation of the performance of the designs, feasibility studies with simulations, and a comparison of simulation and prototype tests will be presented.
Ziel der Arbeit war es, die Flugzeitmassenspektrometrie als neue Analysemethode für die instrumentelle Analytik halogenierter Spurengase in der Luft zu etablieren. Die grundle-gende Motivation dafür ist, dass anthropogene Emissionen vieler Vertreter dieser Sub-stanzklasse einen negativen Einfluss auf die Umwelt zeigen: in der Atmosphäre agieren die Substanzen bzw. ihre Abbauprodukte als Katalysatoren für den stratosphärischen Ozonab-bau und verstärken den Strahlungsantrieb der Erde durch Absorption elektromagnetischer Strahlung im sogenannten atmosphärischen Fenster. Um diese Effekte und deren Auswir-kung quantifizieren zu können, ist es notwendig, Konzentrationen und Trends der Substan-zen in der Atmosphäre zu überwachen. Nur so können Gegenmaßnahmen wie Produktions-reglementierungen geplant und bewertet werden. In Kombination mit inverser Modellie-rung können zudem Rückschlüsse über tatsächlich emittierten Mengen gezogen werden. Dies stellt den Anspruch an die Analytik, sehr geringe Mengen dieser Gase sehr präzise quantifizieren zu können, um auch schwache Trends zu erkennen. Zudem muss die Analy-semethode die Möglichkeit zu bieten, mit der wachsenden Anzahl bekannter und zu über-wachender Substanzen Schritt zu halten. Besonders für letzteren Aspekt bietet die Flug-zeitmassenspektrometrie einen entscheidenden Vorteil gegenüber der „konventionellen“ Methode, der Quadrupolmassenspektrometrie: sie zeichnet das gesamten Massenspektrum auf ohne dadurch an Empfindlichkeit einzubüßen. Um das atmosphärische Mischungsver-hältnis von Substanzen im Bereich von pmol mol−1 bis fmol mol−1 bestimmen zu können, muss das Quadrupolmassenspektrometer im Single Ion Monitoring Modus betrieben wer-den – so wird zwar eine hohe Sensitivität erreicht, es wird aber auch nur die Intensität eines bestimmten Masse zu Ladungsverhältnisses (kurz: Masse) zu einem Zeitpunkt aufgezeich-net. Ein Flugzeitmassenspektrometer hingegen extrahiert Ionen mit einer Frequenz im Ki-loherzbereich und zeichnet für jede Extraktion das vollständige Flugzeitspektrum und da-mit Massenspektrum auf.
Aufgabe dieser Arbeit war es, ein Flugzeitmassenspektrometer mit vorgeschalteter Pro-benanreicherungseinheit sowie Gaschromatograph zur Trennung des Subtanzgemisches vor der Detektion aufzubauen und Werkzeuge zur Datenauswertung zu entwickeln. Um einen zukünftigen Feldeinsatz vorzubereiten, sollte der Aufbau möglichst kompakt, mobil und vollständig automatisiert sein. Anschließend sollte Empfindlichkeit, Präzision und dynami-scher Messbereich geprüft, optimiert und die Anwendbarkeit zur Analyse halogenierter Spurengase gezeigt werden. Die Ergebnisse aus der in der vorliegenden Arbeit präsentier-ten Geräteentwicklung finden sich in drei Publikationen wieder, welche in thematischer Reihenfolge die Probenanreicherung (Obersteiner et al., 2016b), den Vergleich von Quadrupol- und Flugzeitmassenspektrometrie (Hoker et al., 2015) sowie Eigenschaften und Anwendung des neuen Aufbaus (Obersteiner et al., 2016a) behandeln. Mit den genannten Aufsätzen ist die Arbeitsgruppe Engel weltweit die erste, welche hochpräzise Analytik ha-logenierter Spurengase routinemäßig mittels Flugzeitmassenspektrometrie durchführt. Der nächste Schritt ist der Übergang von der Laboranwendung zur Feldmessung, z.B. in Form von bodenbasierter in situ Analyse troposphärischer Luftmassen am Taunus Observatorium auf dem Kleinen Feldberg. Da es bisher keine Messstation für die hier beschriebene analy-tische Fragestellung in Deutschland gibt, könnte eine deutliche Verbesserung der Überwa-chung halogenierter Treibhausgase und ozonzerstörender Substanzen in Europa erzielt wer-den. Weiterhin wäre eine Flugzeugapplikation in Zukunft denkbar, welche neben der durch das Flugzeitmassenspektrometer abgedeckten Substanzbandbreite auch von dessen hoher möglicher Spektrenrate profitieren könnte. In Kombination mit Hochgeschwindigkeitsgas-chromatographie könnte eine bisher unerreichte Zeitauflösung der Beprobung der Atmo-sphäre mittels Gaschromatographie-Massenspektrometrie erzielt werden.
RNA modifications are widespread in the RNA world. Nevertheless, their functions remain enigmatic. Recent analysis in tRNAs, mRNAs and rRNAs have revealed that apart from enriching their topological potential, these chemical modifications provide an added significant regulatory level to gene expression...
This thesis is concerned with protein structures determined by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and the text focuses on their analysis in terms of accuracy, gauged by the correspondence between the structural model and the experimental data it was calculated from, and in terms of precision, i.e. the degree of uncertainty of the atomic positions. Additionally, two protein structure calculation projects are described...
Anankastic relatives
(2016)
This dissertation investigates a semantic puzzle in German concerning certain sentences with an intensional transitive verb and a modalized relative clause modifying its indefinite object. In their unspecific reading, the modal inside the relative clause seems to lack a semantic contribution and the construal of the relative clause appears spuriously ambiguous between a restrictive and an appositive reading. However, as a thorough discussion of a wide range of data reveals, the embedded modal is actually anaphoric to the matrix attitude and does contribute to the sentence meaning. But then, precisely due to its anaphoricity, this semantic contribution is restricted and in some cases very subtle; in particular, the semantic phenomenon under scrutiny cannot be analyzed as an instance of modal concord. Rather, previous observations on related data involving epistmic anaphoric modals and anankastic conditionals turn out to indicate the direction for an adequate analysis of the relevant semantic observations. For the restrictive construal, a conservative account is developed containing a fine-grained Lewis-Kratzer-style modal semantics, but with a twist: the anaphoricity of the modal is taken care of by restricting the anaphoricity of the modal to the ordering source of the matrix verb; moreover, the embedded modal receives a historical modal base. In this way compositionality issues and problems of cross-identification are avoided. Finally, the non-restrictive construal is analyzed as an instance of modal subordination, exploiting the well-studied parallel between appositive relatives and discourse anaphora.
Die Populationsgenetik beschäftigt sich mit dem Einfluss von zufälliger Reproduktion, Rekombination, Migration, Mutation und Selektion auf die genetische Struktur einer Population.
In dieser Arbeit mit dem englischen Titel "Ancestral lines under mutation and selection" wird das Zusammenspiel von zufälliger Reproduktion, gerichteter Selektion und Zweiwegmutation untersucht.
Dazu betrachten wir eine haploide Population in der jedes Individuum zu jedem Zeitpunkt genau einen von zwei Typen aus S:={0,1} trägt. Dabei sei 1 der neutrale und 0 der selektiv bevorzugte Typ. Im Diffusionslimes sehr großer Populationen modellieren wir den Prozess der Frequenz der Typ-0-Individuen durch eine Wright-Fisher-Diffusion X:=(X_t) mit Mutation und gerichteter Selektion.
Zu jedem Zeitpunkt s gibt es genau ein Individuum, dessen Nachkommen ab einem bestimmten zukünftigen Zeitpunkt t>s die gesamte Population ausmachen werden. Wir nennen dieses Individuum den gemeinsamen Vorfahren zum Zeitpunkt s, da alle Individuen zu allen Zeitpunkten r>t von ihm abstammen. Sei R_{s} dessen Typ zum Zeitpunkt s. Wir nehmen an, dass der Prozess X zum Zeitpunkt 0 im Gleichgewicht ist und definieren die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass der gemeinsame Vorfahre zum Zeitpunkt 0 Typ 0 hat, durch h(x):= P(R_{0}=0|X_{0}=x). Eine Darstellung von h(x) wurde bereits von Fearnhead (2002) und Taylor (2007) gefunden und dort mit vorwiegend analytischen Methoden bewiesen. In dieser Arbeit entwickeln wir in Kapitel 3 ein neues Teilchenbild, den pruned lookdown ancestral selection graph (pruned LD-ASG), der für sich selbst genommen interessant ist und eine neue probabilistische Interpretation der Darstellung von h(x) liefert.
Durch Erweiterung des Teilchenbildes auf Nachkommenverteilungen mit schweren Tails und mit Hilfe einer Siegmund Dualität gelingt es uns in Kapitel 4 das Resultat für h(x) von klassischen Wright-Fisher-Diffusionen auf Lambda-Wright-Fisher-Diffuison zu erweitern.
Eine Verbindung zwischen Ideen von Taylor (2007), der den gemeinsamen Prozess (X,R) untersucht hat, und einem von Fearnhead (2002) betrachteten Prozess (R,V), der die Entwicklung des Typs R des gemeinsamen Vorfahren in einer Umgebung von V sogenannten virtuellen Linien beschreibt, stellen wir in Kapitel 6 her. Wir bestimmen die gemeinsame Dynamik des Tripels (X,R,V). In Kapitel 7 betrachten wir ein diskretes Bild mit endlicher Populationsgröße N und schlagen dort eine Brücke zu Resultaten von Kluth, Hustedt und Baake (2013).
Des Weiteren entwickeln wir in Kapitel 5 dieser Arbeit einen Algorithmus zur Simulation der Typen einer Stichprobe von m Individuen, die aus einer Wright-Fisher-Population mit Mutation und Selektion im Gleichgewicht gezogen wird. Mittels dieses Algorithmus illustrieren wir die Typenverteilung für verschiedene Parameterwerte und Stichprobengrößen.
