Web and database products

1. The Los Angeles PEET Project: URL http://atiniui.nhm.org/peet/
The website for our PEET project includes complete curricula vitae for the members of our research group. Additionally, it includes descriptive text, images, current classifications and references relevant to the systematics of the Leptostraca, Brachyura, and Conchostraca. The pages for the individual projects also provide information on museum collections, specimens, and fieldwork. See individual student sections above for the URL addresses of student projects within this site. The most completely developed site at this time is the Leptostraca page, at http://atiniui.nhm.org/peet/leptostraca/index.html.

2. The Crustacea Glossary URL: http://crustacea.nhm.org/glossary/
One of the more useful products of our first collaboration is the Crustacea Glossary, a 50-page on-line resource for researchers and educators. This PEET product is now the largest glossary of crustacean morphological terms in existence.

3. An Updated Classification of the Recent Crustacea (Martin and Davis, 2001)
A seminal publication, and the only resource that lists all of the 849 currently accepted families of extant Crustacea, this PEET product is now available free of charge through The Crustacean Society as a pdf download at: http://www.vims.edu/tcs/LACM-39-01-final.pdf).


Workshops Supported / Hosted
Several workshops have been supported in part or completely by our PEET grant, including the following:

1. Fifth DELTA Crustacean Workshop. Trainees Haney and Boyce were the Organizers and Hosts of this October, 2002, 9-day workshop in Los Angeles. The workshop focused on the use of computer software for the construction of interactive taxonomic keys, natural language descriptions, and character-taxon data matrices. These two students initiated the workshop, organized it, and assisted with instruction; a total of 14 participants (all crustacean systematists) representing 6 countries attended.

2. PEET IV. J. Martin (PI), with assistance from all of his PEET students, served on the Organizing Committee for the PEET IV conference at U.C. Berkeley in June of 2002 (with Brent Mishler, Terry Gosliner, John Heraty, and others).

3. Biological Illustration Workshop. As part of the above PEET workshop, J. Martin organized and offered a course on all aspects of biological illustration, including pen and ink rendering through digital imaging and storage. A total of 52 PEET students attended the combined individual illustration workshops.

4. First All-Hands Biotic Surveys and Inventories Workshop. Although only tangentially related to our primary PEET activities, J. Martin was the organizer and host of the First All Hands Meeting for NSF Biotic Surveys and Inventories PIs, a workshop that took place on Orcas Island, Washington, in May of 2000. Student T. Zimmerman assisted.


Workshops Attended
In addition to the above workshops that we hosted (and attended), the student trainees attended the following workshops to further enhance their training in systematics, phylogenetics, and databasing:

1. Morphometrics in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology: A Special Course on Advanced Topics in Biostatistics, University of Amsterdam, April 2-5, 2002 (S. Boyce).

2. Workshop on Molecular Evolution, Marine Biological Laboratory, Woods Hole, MA, July 27-August 8, 2002 (S. Boyce).

3. Fourth DELTA Workshop, Computerization of Morphological Data and Interactive Digital Keys, Kristineberg Marine Research Station, Sweden, May 2-13, 2000 (T. Haney).

4. Workshop in Applied Phylogenetics, Bodega Marine Laboratory, Bodega Bay, California, April 22-27, 2001 (S. Trautwein, S. Boyce).
