Regulation of the unfolded protein response by GADD34 and CReP
… eIF2α and brings the cell back into homeostasis. CReP, similar to GADD34, binds to PP1, to dephosphorylate eIF2α. The RVxF motif, RARA sequence, and amino acids throughout the GADD34 sequence play a role in PP1 binding and are essential for dephosphorylating eIF2α in cells. The first 180 amino …

An Integrated Evaluation of the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program in South Dakota
… Dakota Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) was initiated to alleviate agriculturally-related environmental degradation by converting 40,469 hectares of eligible cropland and marginal pastureland to perennial vegetation. The program aims to provide habitat for obligate grassland …

The effects of an acute bout of traditional versus circuit resistance exercise on arterial stiffness and blood pressure
… resistance exercise conditions, low intensity (CREP; 40%1RM) and high intensity (TREP; 80%1RM), were compared. In a longitudinal, cross-over study design, thirty-two subjects (n=32, 17 male, and 15 female, mean age= 24.6 +/-4years) completed both conditions on separate days. Pulse wave velocity …

NUTRIENT RETENTION BY RIPARIAN FORESTED BUFFERS IN WESTERN MARYLAND: DO THEY WORK AND ARE THEY WORTH IT?
… the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) to give landowners incentives to install riparian buffers that would help restore the Chesapeake Bay. Although many studies support riparian buffers as a BMP, many have also reported a wide range of nutrient reductions. It is uncertain what …

The effects of cattle exclusion on stream structure and function
… as the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP), have provided funding for farmers to exclude cattle from streams and riparian zones. Funding for CREP is limited and does not allow for post exclusion assessment. The objectives for this study were; 1) to explore whether CREP and other cattle …

Relative importance of Conservation Reserve Programs to mayfly, stonefly, and caddisfly species richness in the Kaskaskia River basin of Illinois
… and Conservation Reserve Enhancement Programs (CREP), funded by federal and state government, offer farmers financial incentives to take erosive agricultural lands out of production. Within these program landscapes, several best management practices, including riparian zone easements and …

The Effects of USDA Farm-Bill Restoration Programs on Prairie Voles (microtus ochrogaster) in the Barrens Region of Kentucky
… the CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) and the CREP (Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program); two popular farm bill-based conservation programs. Among the many conservation practices that these programs fund is grassland restoration. The goal of this project is to restore multiple areas using …

Livestock Exclusion Effects on the Structure and Function of Headwater Streams
… Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). We measured riparian plant characteristics along with stream organic matter dynamics, benthic macroinvertebrates, algal biomass, and leaf breakdown in non-fenced, fenced, and forested streams. Increased growth of non-woody vegetation and the …

Evaluation and prediction of hydrology and nitrate-nitrogen transport in tile-drained watersheds
… wetland algorithms in SWAT by adapting proven CREP wetland models, compare model performance using both original SWAT algorithms and modified wetland equations, and evaluate the ramifications of watershed and tile drain simulation errors on prediction of NO3-N in Iowa CREP wetlands. The …
