This study examines struggles over natural resources in a village in Senegal, West Africa. Interviews and documentation reveal how state and local actors seek to use conservation and development to cement their claims to resources at the expense of ’outsiders.’ An ACES James Scholar project presented by Ewan Robinson (Urbana, IL). Uncertainty and Scale Issues in Linking Climate Change to the Watershed Scale: Ideas in Landscape Classification and Use of NASA Remote-Sensing Data First Floor, Plant Science Lab Enhance your mind by visiting this presentation of research performed on global change models, landscape classification, water resource management, uncertainty and scale. An ACES James Scholar project presented by Kang Chang (North Aurora, IL). A Case Study of Site Quality Effects on Nitrogen Production of Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) First Floor, Plant Science Lab This James Scholar’s case study explores the site quality effects on nitrogen production of the black locust tree. Agricultural tests show a reduction of nitrogen fixation with improved site quality, but no significant research shows this to be true in a natural environment. An ACES James Scholar project presented by Patrick Baldwin (Glenview, IL). HPLC Analysis of Allicin and Other Thiosulfinates in Garlic Supplements First Floor, Plant Science Lab Come learn about this experiment that used high performance liquid chromatography to compare the levels of allicin and other thiosulfinates in several common garlic supplements. The thiosulfinate compounds found in garlic are those thought to confer various health benefits. An ACES James Scholar project presented by Allyson A. West (Champaign, IL).
