    Embedded Data Librarianship: A Case Study of Providing Data Management Support for a Science Department

    No full text
    This case study details how a data services librarian and a science librarian collaborate to provide embedded data management support for the research-oriented Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences at Rutgers University–Newark. Combining their familiarity with emerging professional practices and resources, their efforts to gain a deeper understanding of the specific data management needs of researchers in the department, and their research into the evolving research data infrastructure in that particular discipline, the two are able to successfully connect researchers with the best practices in data management, suitable data repositories, and experts in the campus’ Computing Services unit.This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Science & Technology Libraries, published online on 24 September 2015, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/10.1080/0194262X.2015.1085348.Peer reviewe

    Required Data Management Training for Graduate Students in an Earth and Environmental Sciences Department

    No full text
    The increasing importance of data management in the sciences has led the Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences at a research intensive university to work closely with the Physical Sciences Librarian and Data Services Librarian on campus to provide mandatory training to its graduate students. Although integrating data management training into the graduate program curriculum may not be possible, there are still opportunities to ensure students learn such skills prior to graduating. This article describes the four approaches taken thus far – a seminar about basic data management during the department’s weekly seminar series, creation of a Data Profile form that students were asked to complete, an interactive workshop during the department’s annual retreat, and assistance with writing data management plans. Buy-in for requiring data management training was essential from both faculty and students and was possible because both groups understood the value of research data management skills. Also vital to the success of these approaches was how the subject specialist and data librarians leveraged their respective areas of expertise in a complementary fashion to address disciplinary as well as broader data-related concerns.Peer reviewe

    Lineacoelotes funiushanensis (Hu, Wang & Wang, 1991) comb. nov. Figs 5 –10, 39 Coelotes funiushanensis Hu, Wang & Wang 1991: 41, figs 14–17 (female holotype, 2 female and 4 male paratypes from Yaochanggou, Neixiang, Henan, China, deposited in Shandong University, not examined). — Song et al. 1999: 375, figs 217 Q–R, 222 B, 223 G. Draconarius funiushanensis Wang 2003: 532. Additional material examined: China: Henan: Neixiang County, Qiliping Town (33.3 °N, 111.8 °E), Yaochanggou, November 12, 2005, 16 females and 7 males (Xxiang Xu and Qian Wang, IZCAS); Neixiang County, Baotianman Nature Reserve (33.5 °N, 111.9 °E), November 12, 2005, 5 females (Xiang Xu and Qian Wang, IZCAS); Xixia County, Wuliqiao Village, Yunhuabianfudong Cave (33.3 °N, 111.4 °E), June 20, 2005, 5 females (Xiang Xu and Qian Wang, IZCAS). Diagnosis: The females of this species are similar to those of L. bicultratus and L. nitidus in spermathecal shape and in having anteriorly extending spermathecal heads. The widely separated epigynal teeth (Fig. 5) easily distinguish them from L. bicultratus, but they can only be separated from L. nitidus by the relatively narrow atrium which is separated from the epigastric furrow by approximately its length (Fig. 5), whereas L. nitidus has a large atrium that is separated from the epigastric furrow by less than its length. Another character that may distinguish L. funiushanensis from L. nitidus is the distally originating spermathecal heads, but there might be variation and this difference may not be reliable. The males are also similar to those of L. nitidus and can only be distinguished by the modification of the conductor dorsal edge (Fig. 10). Regarding the conductor dorsal edge, L. funiushanensis has a slightly large distal apophysis (C 2) and a retrolaterally extended apophysis on the ventral side and a sharp tooth on top (C 3) (Figs 7–10), whereas L. nitidus has a relatively small distal apophysis and a prolaterally extending apophysis and without a sharp tooth on top (Figs 29–32). Description: See Hu et al. (1991) for detailed somatic description. Female: Eye measurements (one female from Neixiang County, Qiliping Town, Yaochanggou): AME 0.15; ALE 0.20; PME 0.18; PLE 0.20; AME-AME 0.08; PME-PME 0.13; PME-PLE 0.18. Chelicera with 3 promarginal and 2 retromarginal teeth. Epigynum with two long, strong teeth originating from anterior margin of atrium, widely separated by twice their basal width; atrium narrow, transversely extended, separated from epigastric furrow by approximately its height; epigynal teeth reaching almost posterior margin of atrium; atrium extending into epigynum, forming broad copulatory duct; spermathecal heads originating on distal spermathecae, zigzag anteriorly, forming 2–3 loops, then extending laterally, curving back medially; spermathecae simple, oval-shaped, close together (Figs 5–6). Male: Eye measurements (one male from Neixiang County, Qiliping Town, Yaochanggou): AME 0.15; ALE 0.20; PME 0.18; PLE 0.20; AME-AME 0.05; PME-PME 0.10; PME-PLE 0.15. Chelicera with 3 promarginal and 2 retromarginal teeth. Palpal patellar apophysis long, with more or less sharp distal end; RTA extending along most of tibial length, with pointed distal end; cymbial furrow short, extending up to 1 / 3 of cymbial length; conductor distinctly separated into broad, short ventral apophysis (C 1) and strongly modified dorsal edge; in addition to broad distal apophysis (C 2) on retrolateral side of conductor dorsal edge, another small, retrolaterally directed apophysis (C 3) being situated on ventral side of conductor dorsal edge, with sharp tooth situated on top; median apophysis spoon-shaped, rounded; embolic base originating more or less proximally, extending distally; embolus moderately long, filiform (Figs 7–10).

    The L-Proline-Catalyzed Asymmetric Syntheses

    No full text
    In recent years, L-proline has been employed as the catalyst for the intra-and intermolecular aldol reactions, α- amination of aldehydes and ketones, and three-component Mannich reactions. These proline-catalyzed asymmetric reactions showed high stereoselectivities and gave products with high ee values some time up to > 99%. Examples are given to illustrate the versatility of L-proline in chiral organic syntheses

    Bellinympha Wang et al., 2010 (Figs 65 E–F) Type species. Bellinympha filicifolia Wang et al., 2010: 1 (by original designation). Diagnosis. Wings subtriangular, posterior margin irregularly sinuous distally in FW, mostly straight in HW; both wings with distinct markings or infuscation, FW with prominent pinna-shaped markings along entire length centred along medial vein; FW subcostal veinlets irregularly forked; both wings with RP arching in apical part of wing, two to five regular rows of cells present in RA area, distal branches of RP apically curving toward posterior margin, RP with six branches before distal curve anteriorly; MP with numerous pectinate branches; CuA with regular pectinate branches. Comments. This genus has apically truncated, subtriangular wings where the forewing has a sinuate posterior margin. The disruptive pattern of colouration that resemble leaf pinnae, as well as thickened MP vein superficially resembles a leaf rachis (see discussion by Wang et al., 2010) makes this genus readily distinguishable from other genera in the family. There is an appendage close to the caudal segment that resembles the female gonocoxite 9 of Osmylidae, lending additional support to the close relationship of these two families.Published as part of Winterton, Shaun L., Martins, Caleb Califre, Makarkin, Vladimir, Ardila-Camacho, Adrian & Wang, Yongjie, 2019, Lance lacewings of the world (Neuroptera: Archeosmylidae, Osmylidae, Saucrosmylidae): review of living and fossil genera, pp. 1-99 in Zootaxa 4581 (1) on pages 87-88, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4581.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/263384
