Macro In Water
The document discusses various animals that can be found in water and their use as indicators of water quality. It identifies macroinvertebrates without backbones that can be seen as especially useful indicators, dividing them into three groups - those that indicate good, fair, or poor water quality - based on their tolerance of pollutants. Examples are given of specific macroinvertebrate species and where they fall in the three indicator groups.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish are invertebrates found in oceans worldwide, mostly near coasts in shallow water. They eat plankton and small fish by stinging them with their tentacles. Jellyfish begin as eggs that hatch into larvae and develop through different stages, growing from tiny beginnings to sometimes being larger than humans.

It also describes techniques for estimating fisher populations, such as tagging and recapturing samples. Water, soil, and stream quality data are presented and analyzed in terms of their impact on the fisher's food sources and habitat. The conclusion expresses interest in learning more about maintaining healthy environments.
Great Horned Owl - Ashley Turcheck
The document discusses the Great Horned Owl's niche and role in the food web. As a secondary consumer and carnivore, it preys on medium-sized mammals, insects, fish, and some reptiles and amphibians. The stream quality where it lives supports many pollution-intolerant organisms and provides prey for the owl. While the owl has few predators as an adult, changes to the stream ecosystem through pollution could negatively impact its food sources.
Gambusia guidlines
The document provides technical guidelines for using Gambusia fish to biologically control mosquitoes and mosquito-borne diseases in Mahabubabad District, Telangana, India. It describes how Gambusia fish were introduced in the district following a review meeting with the district collector to address increased mosquitoes and diseases from rainfall. The summary is:
1) Gambusia fish have been successfully used since the early 1900s to biologically control mosquito larvae. Guidelines were created for local governments to distribute and monitor Gambusia fish in the district.
2) Gambusia are described as a good biological control as they naturally prey on mosquito larvae, reproduce quickly, and can survive varied environments with minimal costs.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish are delicate sea animals that use stinging tentacles to catch prey and defend themselves, despite having no brain, eyes, or complex body structure. They have existed since dinosaur times and can be found globally, from oceans to ponds. Different jellyfish species range in size and danger level, with some possessing venom that can kill humans quickly. Jellyfish rely on ocean currents for transportation and use camouflage and stinging defenses to protect themselves while being unable to swim rapidly.

Jellyfish
Jellyfish have existed in oceans for over 500 million years, drifting along ocean currents. They are among the most ancient and mysterious marine creatures, with over 2,000 known species that range greatly in size, shape, color and habitat. Though delicate, jellyfish populations are vast and found in every ocean. The document explores the diversity of jellyfish through many photographs and details about some of their unique traits, behaviors, and roles in ecosystems around the world.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish are invertebrate animals that live in oceans worldwide. They have a bell-like shape with many tentacles used for swimming, hunting small crustaceans and fish by injecting poison, and transporting food to their mouth. Though brainless, jellyfish have a nervous system and tentacles containing a painful poison that can cause skin reactions if touched.
Box jelly fish
Box jellyfish have among the most deadly venom in the world, attacking the heart, brain, and skin. They live in coastal waters off northern Australia and throughout the Indo-Pacific from October to April. Though they can cause human death in under 3 minutes if anti-venom is not administered within 30 minutes, a 10-year-old girl survived extensive stings from a box jellyfish through 6 weeks of treatment.

Jellyfish undergo five stages in their life cycle: polyp, budding polyp, ephyra, medusa, and planula larva. The medusa stage is when they resemble what people typically think of as jellyfish. Small jellyfish are prey for other animals like turtles and sunfish, while humans in some areas eat pickled jellyfish which is considered a delicacy. Jellyfish use venomous tentacles and threads to paralyze their prey, with the severity of stings varying by species. Common jellyfish along the North Carolina coast include cannonball, lion's mane, mushroom, southern moon, sea nettle, sea wasp, and Portuguese man-of-war, all of which
Jelly fish
Jellyfish live in oceans and seas around the world. They are free-swimming marine animals that consist of an umbrella-shaped bell and trailing tentacles. Jellyfish go through different life stages from eggs to larval planulae to polyps and then to adult jellyfish. They are carnivorous and feed on plankton, small fish, and other jellyfish. While most jellyfish are small, some like the Lion's Mane can have tentacles over 30 meters long. Certain jellyfish like the sea wasp have venom powerful enough to kill a human within minutes.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish are 95% water and move via water currents or by squeezing their bodies to force out water. They are not fish but rather plankton, and eat other plankton, crustaceans, fish eggs, and small fish. Leatherback sea turtles are one of the predators that eat jellyfish. Jellyfish come in many different shapes, sizes, and colors and can be found in groups called blooms or swarms in the ocean. While some species can sting, moon jellies are generally safe to touch.
Macroinvertebrates (EEE)
The Department of Environmental Protection monitors stream quality in Pennsylvania to protect the state's air, land, and water from pollution. Macroinvertebrates are useful for assessing water quality as some are tolerant of pollution while others are not, so their presence indicates the stream's pollution levels. Their role in nutrient cycles also makes them important to the whole ecosystem.
Jellyfish
Jellyfish have an umbrella-shaped bell and trailing tentacles. They use their pulsating bell for locomotion and stinging tentacles to capture prey. Jellyfish eat smaller fish, eggs, larvae, zooplankton, and other jellyfish that become trapped in their tentacles. They have a simple digestive system with one opening that serves as both a mouth and anus.

The barn owl lives anywhere with adequate shelter, small prey animals, and insects. They range across continents except Antarctica. Their main food is small rodents which depend on plants, but they also eat insects. Barn owls typically breed once per year and have 4-5 eggs, which the female incubates for around a month while the male provides food. Once hatched, the chicks fly at 6 weeks but remain dependent on parents for another couple weeks. The barn owl plays an important role in the local food chain by preying on small rodents and insects.
Amphibians
This document provides an overview of amphibians including their characteristics, evolution, examples of different types of amphibians like frogs, salamanders, and caecilians. It discusses their anatomy, life cycles, habitats, defenses, diets, and more. Amphibians are defined as animals that develop outside the body, have glandular skin without scales, and can breathe through gills or lungs. They first appeared around 340-270 million years ago.
Edible Shellfish fauna.pptx
Shellfish are aquatic invertebrates with exoskeletons made of shells. They are divided into two categories - crustaceans and molluscs. Crustaceans have segmented bodies and jointed appendages, while molluscs have soft, unsegmented bodies and most have external shells. Major edible crustaceans include shrimp, prawns, crabs and lobsters. Major edible molluscs include bivalves like clams, mussels and oysters, as well as gastropods, cephalopods like squid and octopus. Many shellfish are commercially important seafood and aquaculture products.
Animals that Live in Estuaries
Estuaries are ecosystems where freshwater from rivers meets saltwater from the sea. They are highly productive habitats that support a great diversity of wildlife, serving as nurseries for many fish and breeding grounds for birds. Over time, estuaries fill with sediment from rivers and tides, eventually transforming into dry land. They provide food and shelter for many species of fish, birds, shellfish, and mammals.

Herpetology
Herpetology is the study of reptiles and amphibians. It is an important field that provides insights into conservation, medical research, and environmental quality. Amphibians are especially useful as bioindicators because they absorb water and chemicals through their skin. Many amphibian species are threatened or endangered due to habitat loss, disease, pollution, and other factors. Reptiles and amphibians display a wide variety of adaptations for living on land or in water, and fulfilling different ecological roles in ecosystems.

1) You need to attended two shows, they shows are only 15 minutes long. For each show seen you need to write a paragraph summarizing the shows you saw.
The first show we attended was hard to understand what diver is trying to say, they mention it also because the water of that tank is so chili. The diver mentioned that a lot of species are living in this tank, which some are benthic and some are pelagic organisms. They mostly talked about the pelagic organisms in that tank. They chose white sea bass as far as giant sea bass and briefly explain about them. There were thousands of sardines and between them the diver point to the fish called half-moon which it was bigger and silver moon. Half-moons are the feeder of red and green algae, also they can eat some small invertebrates like sponges, crustaceans, and anemones. We were told about the giant bass history in Santa Barbara island, which the scientist didn’t see the organism approximately for forty years but the person who was carrying out the show saw it. She mentioned that scientist by creating a space for these organisms in about thirty or forty years in the nice protected area in the ocean to have no pressure in hunting not even boat driving, they wait for a long time for this species to coming back to protected area and scientists of all over California taking pictures of those animals. The diver also talked about the spots of giant sea bass that we could see on the side of fish that they are specific each and individual.
At the end, he said white sea bass are more open ocean than giant sea bass.
The second show we attended was more interesting for me than the first one. We explored bunch of animal that live there, and talked about some of the organisms that are important and have right force in everything on that tank. We waited for diver to join us to communicate with him. He worn a special mask that allowed him to talk with us. The presenter talked the way that they feed animals, which it was so interesting, the diver goes to target animals and feed them to get the proper diet. The diver mentioned there are six hundred different fishes are living in this tank. The exhibit was so big with 350000 gallons of water. There were two species of shark in that specific exhibit, but they were not like hunting sharks as we see in television. There was an animal that shark close related to which is ray. We saw a diver was feeding those new rays. Rays are related to sharks but they look different. The fishes live in that tank were bony fish and have skeleton. One of them was napoleon wrasse. This organism has a unique adaptation, they all are female and they can change itself to male which this transformation takes about a year. Looks like the name of this fish comes up from the shape it has, because there is a bump on its head that’s why calling it a napoleon wrasse. Bubbles also are another bony fish, that loves to be part of presentation. This fish loves the bubbles and for entire presentation.

Several example food chains are illustrated. The document concludes with short biographies of the three student authors.
Mudskipper Presentation Boards
Mudskippers are fish that can live both on land and in water. They have adaptations like the ability to breathe through their skin and use pectoral fins to walk. There are three main types - the giant mudskipper, blue-spotted mudskipper, and gold-spotted mudskipper. Mudskippers reproduce by the male building a burrow and the female laying eggs inside, which the male then guards. Their lifecycle includes stages from egg to larvae to juvenile to adult.
Catherine Clements Pd.4
The document discusses the muskrat, its habitat, behavior, diet, predators, and reproduction. Some key points:

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

GNSS spoofing via SDR (Criptored Talks 2024)
In the realm of cybersecurity, offensive security practices act as a critical shield. By simulating real-world attacks in a controlled environment, these techniques expose vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them. This proactive approach allows manufacturers to identify and fix weaknesses, significantly enhancing system security.
This presentation delves into the development of a system designed to mimic Galileo's Open Service signal using software-defined radio (SDR) technology. We'll begin with a foundational overview of both Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the intricacies of digital signal processing.
The presentation culminates in a live demonstration. We'll showcase the manipulation of Galileo's Open Service pilot signal, simulating an attack on various software and hardware systems. This practical demonstration serves to highlight the potential consequences of unaddressed vulnerabilities, emphasizing the importance of offensive security practices in safeguarding critical infrastructure.
zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
