Rating
0.0 stars

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Antibiotic resistance is a global threat to public health, causing an estimated 700,000 deaths each year. Soil is an important reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), but the potential risk of ARGs in different ecosystems and the effect of land use changes are unknown. In a recent study, researchers investigated ARG types and amounts in three native soil ecosystems: Alaskan tundra, US Midwestern prairie, and Amazon Rainforest. They found high ARG diversity and abundance in all three ecosystems. A total of 10 regulatory and 55 non-regulatory ARGs were identified that were shared by all 26 metagenomes in the three ecosystems. No significant differences were observed in ARG diversity or abundance between native prairie and agricultural soil, while conversion of Amazon rainforest to pasture increased ARG abundance..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

In this activity, students learn about the urban heat island effect by investigating which areas of their schoolyard have higher temperatures - trees, grass, asphalt, and other materials. Based on their results, they hypothesize how concentrations of surfaces that absorb heat might affect the temperature in cities - the urban heat island effect. Then they analyze data about the history of Los Angeles heat waves and look for patterns in the Los Angeles climate data and explore patterns.
