Chasing Ruth

Mrs. Ruth Chase

The mission is to start solv- ing the problem, not just to study it. Her experiments, conducted with Madeleine van Oppen of the Australian Institute of Marine Science, were intricate and very time-consuming, involving the collection of temperature-tolerant coral colonies from the field.

Those individuals that did not bleach during natural bleaching events — when sea temperatures were high — then had their reproductive products collected in the laboratory after spawning. The offspring were raised and tested for improved temperature tolerance. Research is now under way to establish the mechanisms involved in corals achieving such tolerance, and how it might be passed on to the next generation.

Some scientists were, and remain, sceptical of the work, particularly over the costs that might be involved and whether it can be scaled up to be effective on an international level.

Ruth Gates obituary

Her mother, Muriel nee Peel , was a physiotherapist. After private schooling in England, and inspired by Jacques Cousteau, Ruth began an undergraduate course in marine biology at Newcastle University in , graduating with a BSc before gaining a PhD there in Her postgraduate work allowed her to study coral reefs on the north shores of Jamaica, where she first observed the bleaching responses of corals to increased sea temperatures.

After her PhD she moved to the University of California, Los Angeles, for postdoctoral research into coral bleaching responses, remaining there for more than a decade as she built up research skills in cell and molecular biology and evolutionary genetics. In she was appointed as a research faculty member at the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology on Coconut Island in Kaneohe Bay, subsequently leading a team at what was christened the Gates Coral Lab.

Ruth was a skilful trainer and mentor of her large laboratory of PhD and postgraduate students, many of whom have become internationally recognised experts in their field.

CHIRP continues to support the Nisenan in their quest to re-establish themselves as the Indigenous people in the foothills where their families have resided for thousands of years. When I started painting I would follow a voice that would come forth from a spirit on other side asking me to paint them. I had no idea what I was doing, I would just paint, in time I understood that I could use channeling from non physical energy to guide my work.

I remember clearly that this spirit was eager to be seen and released. While I still use this method in some of my work, I am so much more aware of what is happening and far more particular of who I channel.

Every Saturday morning I ask a question on Facebook about women and our sense of belonging. Please join me as we explore this topic, men we need you too. I AM HERE questions are meant to engage the community in a conversation about women and to foster a community connection.

What does it mean to be a woman , a question I have never explored until this very moment. I have spent a lot of time rejecting the expectations put on me by the outside world of what a woman is or should be, or should not be.

Sometimes I wonder if I would have chosen to be a woman in this lifetime if I were given a choice before I was born. I suppose I have even been pissed off about being a woman, now that I think about it.

I may even need a good cry. Friday, September 7 4: SEE and hear more about Leonard.

Street art often has a reputation as part of a subculture that rebels against authority, although it can also express a political practice, and serves as just one tool in an array of resistance techniques. Some murals have also been created in defiance to the law like street art , as others have been commissioned by businesses or other patrons. It can be argued that public art of both categories can add aesthetic improvement to the daily lives of residents, and visitors to the community.
