The beauty of landforms

This article determines which landforms attract people the most and whether one can speak of collective patterns in the aesthetic evaluation of a landscape. It therefore concerns enjoying the beauty offered by a more or less reshaped natural environment. This study is based on the Triglav Lakes Valley (Dolina Triglavskih jezer) in Slovenia which, due to the few man-made changes introduced there, includes hardly any anthropogenic “unnecessary noise. ” The online survey included more than six hundred people and used photos of various landforms. Lakes were found to be the most attractive to the respondents, and fractured rock areas were the least attractive.
Palaeomagnetic Studies in the British Caledonides?V Miscellaneous New Data

Summary Data are presented for a variety of Palaeozoic rocks from four areas in the British Isles: western Ireland (Arenig pillow lavas at Lough Nafooey, the Cambro–Ordovician Connemara Gabbros, Upper Silurian sediments of the Knocknaveen Group and Salrock Group, and intrusive rocks associated with the latter); the Ordovician of north Pembrokeshire (Trefgarn Andesitic Series, Fishguard Volcanic Series, and some basic intrusions); the Bristol District (Upper Llandovery lavas in the Tort-worth Inlier, uppermost Devonian and basal Carboniferous red sediments); and the Orkney and Shetland Islands (middle Devonian to possibly Carboniferous lavas). These provide palaeomagnetic directions of limited reliability because of restricted sampling, outcrop, or stability evidence. Three extensions of published studies are also reported. In the Hartshill Quartzite (Cambrian) the published result has not been substantiated. The contact aureole of the Arrochar Complex (Siluro-Devonian) provides a variety of stability evidence that its remanence dates from the time of intrusion of the igneous complex. The published results from Mweelrea ignimbrites (Llanvirn) are confirmed with minor modification. Considered with other published data, these new results suggest that the pole relative to Britain remained in the same position from early Silurian to Lower (or even Upper) Devonian time, and comparatively rapid polar shift took place both before and after this interval.
Label-free spatially maintained measurements of metabolic phenotypes in cells

Metabolic reprogramming at a cellular level contributes to many diseases including cancer, yet few assays are capable of measuring metabolic pathway usage by individual cells within living samples. Here, autofluorescence lifetime imaging is combined with single-cell segmentation and machine-learning models to predict the metabolic pathway usage of cancer cells. The metabolic activities of MCF7 breast cancer cells and HepG2 liver cancer cells were controlled by growing the cells in culture media with specific substrates and metabolic inhibitors. Fluorescence lifetime images of two endogenous metabolic coenzymes, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) and oxidized flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), were acquired by a multi-photon fluorescence lifetime microscope and analyzed at the cellular level. Quantitative changes of NADH and FAD lifetime components were observed for cells using glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and glutaminolysis. Conventional machine learning models trained with the autofluorescence features classified cells as dependent on glycolytic or oxidative metabolism with 90%–92% accuracy. Furthermore, adapting convolutional neural networks to predict cancer cell metabolic perturbations from the autofluorescence lifetime images provided improved performance, 95% accuracy, over traditional models trained via extracted features. Additionally, the model trained with the lifetime features of cancer cells could be transferred to autofluorescence lifetime images of T cells, with a prediction that 80% of activated T cells were glycolytic, and 97% of quiescent T cells were oxidative. In summary, autofluorescence lifetime imaging combined with machine learning models can detect metabolic perturbations between glycolysis and oxidative metabolism of living samples at a cellular level, providing a label-free technology to study cellular metabolism and metabolic heterogeneity.
Robust Command Filtered Backstepping Control for FJR Using Reduced-Order GPI Observers

This brief addresses the trajectory tracking control of a category of n-link disturbed flexible joint robots (FJRs). First of all, two reduced-order generalized proportional integral observers (ROGPIOs) are constructed to estimate not only matched disturbances but also mismatched disturbances. Next on, with the assistance of estimations provided by the ROGPIOs, a newly robust tracking controller is recursively designed with the command filtered backstepping (CFBS) method. Meanwhile, second-order filters are employed to overcome the obstacle of “explosion of complexity” and an error compensation mechanism is developed to mitigate the adverse effect of filter errors on tracking performance. A rigorous theoretical analysis guarantees that the closed-loop system consisting of error compensation signals, estimation errors, compensated tracking errors, and tracking errors is uniformly ultimately bounded. Numerical tests on a two-link FJR are carried out to validate the viability of the presented strategy. The results confirm that the proposed control scheme has a solid ability to suppress both matched and mismatched disturbances.
CMOS-Compatible Ultrathin Superconducting NbN Thin Films Deposited by Reactive Ion Sputtering on 300 mm Si Wafer

We report a milestone in achieving large-scale, ultrathin (~5 nm) superconducting NbN thin films on 300 mm Si wafers using a high-volume manufacturing (HVM) industrial physical vapor deposition (PVD) system. The NbN thin films possess remarkable structural uniformity and consistently high superconducting quality across the entire 300 mm Si wafer, by incorporating an AlN buffer layer. High-resolution X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy analyses unveiled enhanced crystallinity of (111)-oriented δ-phase NbN with the AlN buffer layer. Notably, NbN films deposited on AlN-buffered Si substrates exhibited a significantly elevated superconducting critical temperature (~2 K higher for the 10 nm NbN) and a higher upper critical magnetic field or Hc2 (34.06 T boost in Hc2 for the 50 nm NbN) in comparison with those without AlN. These findings present a promising pathway for the integration of quantum-grade superconducting NbN films with the existing 300 mm CMOS Si platform for quantum information applications.

According to phenological observation data of fourteen stations in Hunan,Hubei and Jiangxi provinces from 1994 to 2006,indices of suitable temperature at the booting stage and accumulated temperature(≥10 ℃)during the whole growth period in early or late rice in the south of China were analyzed by statistics and biological relationship between factors.Indices of the optimum daily mean temperature and the minimum temperature at the booting stage were as follows:Early convention rice variety was 25.7 ℃ and 22.3 ℃ respectively,hybrid variety was 26.5 ℃ and 23.3℃ respectively;while late convention rice variety was 25.6 ℃ and 22.3 ℃ respectively,hybrid variety was 25.8 ℃ and 22.6 ℃ respectively.Indexes of accumulated temperature during the whole growth period were as follows:The early-maturing variety,the middle-maturing variety and the late-maturing variety of early rice was 2 512.1 ℃,2 528.4 ℃ and 2 651.3 ℃ respectively,while the early-maturing variety,the middle-maturing variety and the late-maturing variety of late rice was 3 126.2 ℃,3 031.5 ℃ and 3 335.2 ℃ respectively.The above indexes all met the requirements of identification,which could provide reference for formulating the meteorological standard of rice in the south of China.
The good, the bad, and the invisible: the role of educators in reinforcing national-origin-based stereotypes

ABSTRACT A growing body of research has investigated how school staff attitudes and beliefs towards immigrant students play a crucial role in their process of integration. However, the literature has consistently focused on the effects of teachers’ beliefs on immigrant students’ academic achievements, omitting other factors such as the effect on students’ social interactions. Based on cases from Chile, this article examines the attitudes, prejudices, and beliefs that school staff have regarding immigrant students and how these images affect immigrants’ relationships with their Chilean peers. I relied on 75 in-depth interviews with students and school staff and 46 classroom observations from seven high schools in the Metropolitan Region of Chile. Results show that national origin-based stereotypes shape the way that educators see and understand immigrant students’ relationships with their peers. Moreover, these national-based stereotypes directly alter immigrant students’ integration with their Chilean peers by reinforcing Chilean students’ prejudices towards their immigrant peers and by affecting immigrants’ self-identity, confidence, and well-being.
Post-stroke seizures, epilepsy, and mortality in a prospective hospital-based study

Background and objectives Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a significant concern in the elderly population, with stroke being a leading cause of epilepsy in this demographic. Several factors have shown consistent associations with the risk of developing PSE, including cortical lesions, initial stroke severity, younger age, and the occurrence of early seizures. The primary objectives of this study were two-fold: (1) to determine the incidence of PSE and (2) to identify the risk factors associated with PSE in a prospective cohort of post-stroke patients. Methods A prospective single-hospital study was conducted, involving patients diagnosed with acute ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. The patients were followed up for 2 years (or until death) from the time of admission. Data about seizure occurrence and recurrent stroke were collected. Kaplan–Meyer curves were used for the assessment of PSE incidence and mortality. Possible predictors of PSE and mortality were selected from between-group analysis and tested in multivariable regressions. Results Our study enrolled a total of 424 patients diagnosed with acute stroke. Among them, 97 cases (23%) experienced early post-stroke seizures, and 28 patients (6.6%) developed PSE. The cumulative risks of developing PSE were found to be 15.4% after hemorrhagic stroke and 8.7% after ischemic stroke. In multivariable fine and gray regression with competitive risk of death, significant predictors for developing PSE in the ischemic cohort were watershed infarction (HR 6.01, 95% CI 2.29–15.77, p < 0.001) and low Barthel index at discharge (HR 0.98, CI 0.96–0.99, p = 0.04). Furthermore, patients who eventually developed PSE showed slower recovery and presented a worse neurologic status at the time of discharge. The in-hospital dynamics of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) were significantly worse in the PSE group compared to the non-PSE group (p = 0.01). Discussion A higher proportion of cases experienced early seizures compared to what has been commonly reported in similar studies. Watershed stroke and low Barthel index at discharge were both identified as independent risk factors of PSE in ischemic strokes, which sheds light on the underlying mechanisms that may predispose individuals to post-stroke epilepsy after experiencing an ischemic stroke.
Palaeogeographical zonation of gypsum facies:Middle Miocene Badenian of Central Paratethys (Carpathian Foredeep in Europe)

Abstract Studies on Middle Miocene Badenian gypsum in various parts of Central Paratethys, the oldest widespread primary marine gypsum, in western Ukraine, southern Poland and Moravia (Czech Republic) indicate that there are three principal gypsum facies: crystalline gypsum, stromatolitic gypsum and clastic gypsum. The latter typically occurs between crystalline and stromatolitic gypsum and between stromatolitic gypsum and the land. In addition, it is common in channels within gypsum microbialites, and is the main facies during the deposition of the upper part of Badenian gypsum when important bathymetric differences existed within the marginal part of the Carpathian Foredeep Basin, the largest foredeep basin in Europe. Within crystalline gypsum facies, it is observed the overall size of the crystals increases and that the layering declines towards the permanent, stabilized brine body, and thus the giant gypsum intergrowths–non-layered coarse-crystalline selenite – is the end-member of gypsum facies continuum. Typically it passes into layered selenites although owing to fluctuations of pycnocline level, some transitional gypsum subfacies may be missing both in the vertical section as well as in particular outcrops. The following important controls on the development of gypsum facies have been identified: pycnocline level fluctuations, brine level fluctuations including brine sheets and floods, rare marine transgressions, pedogenesis leading to “alabastrine” gypsum development, and rate of inflow of continental water.
Palaeomagnetic palaeolatitudes of the Ontong Java Plateau from 120 to 55 Ma: implications for the apparent polar wander path of the Pacific Plate

We present palaeomagnetic inclinations from Late Cretaceous-Early Tertiary deep-water carbonates obtained during ODP Leg 192 drilling at the Ontong Java Plateau (OJP) for the following periods: magnetochrons C33n (73.6-79.1 Ma), C32 (71.1-73.6 Ma), C27r-C31n (61.3-68.7 Ma) and C25-C26 (55.9-60.9 Ma). Compaction-induced inclination shallowing is considered to be negligible for the OJP sediments examined here because: (i) their palaeomagnetic inclinations are in excellent accord with those recently obtained from underlying OJP basement rocks, (ii) the studied sediments have anisotropy of anhysteretic remanent magnetization fabrics that appear poorly correlated with individual characteristic remanent magnetization inclinations and (iii) in the few cases where we observe a significant difference between our new OJP sedimentary palaeomagnetic data and data from other parts of the Pacific Plate, obtained mainly from seamount magnetization studies and skewness analyses, the sedimentary inclinations are not systematically lower, and therefore, cannot be explained in terms of inclination shallowing. Combining our new data with existing OJP palaeomagnetic data we obtain an internally consistent data set that we interpret to indicate northward motion of the plateau from its formation at similar to 120 Ma until 55 Ma. At 120 Ma the central plateau was located at 24 degrees +/- 4 degrees S. Approximately 45 Myr later (similar to 76 Ma) the plateau is located near 21 degrees S. Our data, therefore, indicate that the OJP was either stationary or exhibited a slow northward latitudinal drift during this interval. In contrast, from similar to 76 Ma until 68 Ma the plateau moved rapidly through approximately 10 degrees of latitude to similar to 10 degrees S. These intervals of slow and rapid motion track similar motions previously proposed for the entire Pacific Plate during the Cretaceous but extends the interval of slow motion into the Late Cretaceous. From 68 Ma until 56 Ma the plateau was again almost latitudinally stationary before moving slowly northward. More direct palaeomagnetic data are necessary to better define Pacific Plate motions during this time interval.
Linguistic Relativity: A Study of the Role of L1 in L2 Vocabulary Acquisition in an EFL Setting

This article investigates the role of mother tongue in mastering foreign language vocabulary, drawing insights from both empirical and existing data sources. The study context consists of 68 students of the English Language Program at Qassim University, Saudi Arabia, whose native language is Arabic and are enrolled in an EFL program. Two distinct tests were administered to gather data for this study to evaluate the interplay between native language proficiency and second language vocabulary acquisition among Saudi EFL learners. Emphasizing the role of bilingual teaching methodologies, the study found that learners who engaged with native language translations demonstrated enhanced vocabulary retention and recall to a significant level when compared with their peers who exclusively studied vocabulary in the target language. In the absence of any other input, this superior performance was attributed to the theory of linguistic relativity, suggesting the cognitive advantage of associating unfamiliar English terms with familiar linguistic constructs from one's primary language. The results compellingly advocate for a more holistic and inclusive pedagogical approach. The study concluded that incorporating native linguistic references in second language instruction not only facilitates more efficient foreign language vocabulary assimilation, but also, recognizes and values the rich linguistic tapestry each learner brings to the educational setting. The results herald a significant shift towards bilingual approaches in EFL settings, especially for educators and curriculum developers aiming for optimal language acquisition outcomes.
A 2000 yr rupture history for the Alpine fault derived from Lake Ellery, South Island, New Zealand

Determining the earthquake segmentation of plate-boundary transform faults remains a scientific challenge because paleoseismic data sets rarely resolve the end points of past ruptures. In this study, we test whether lacustrine paleoseismology can be used to assess rupture end points and the earthquake segmentation of the Alpine fault, one of the longest and fastest-slipping plate-boundary transform faults on Earth. Sediment cores from Lake Ellery record eight episodes of high-intensity shaking (modified Mercalli intensity [MM] IX) from Alpine fault earthquakes as event sequences of a turbidite produced by coseismic subaqueous mass wasting, overlain by deposits representing sediment flux from co- and postseismic landsliding in the fluvial catchment. Age-depth modeling constrains the timing of shaking events at a decadal resolution, facilitating correlation with two previously published lake records to reconstruct the spatial distribution of MM IX shaking along ~150 km of the Alpine fault. When resolved with existing on- and near-fault paleoseismic records, the lake data set demonstrates that independent ruptures of the South Westland and Central segments occurred in A.D. 845–775 and A.D. 739–646, and A.D. 646–592 and A.D. 416–370, respectively. Lakes adjacent to the Alpine fault provide paleoseismic records with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to define along-strike differences in the pattern of rupture capable of distinguishing rupture termination at a geometric segment boundary. This multilake study suggests that locating the end points of ruptures using lacustrine paleoseismology will be most applicable in midlatitude convergent plate-boundary settings where along-strike topography and Quaternary glaciation have resulted in the widespread distribution of suitable lakes.
Energy use, migration times, and spawning success of adult spring-summer Chinook salmon returning to spawning areas in the South Fork Salmon River in Central Idaho: 2002-2007.

The accuracy and feasibility of multiple methods for determining energy condition in Chinook salmon were determined. These results were compared to proximate analysis of fish tissues, which represented the true value of energy content for these fish. Although all estimate methods produced results that were significantly correlated with proximate analysis, bioelectrical impedance and condition factor were less accurate than morphometrics and the Distell Fatmeter. Bioelectrical impedance did not seem to be as accurate in salmon as with other fish species, and is generally considered of better use for mammals. Although condition factor was included as a factor in many models to predict energy condition, its lipid estimation qualities by itself are suboptimal. From a series of 12 morphometric measures, breadth at anus, hump height and mideye to hyperal length together provided the best method for determining lipid content. These three measures were used in subsequent years. Although morphometrics proved to be the most accurate method for estimating energy condition, the Distell Fatmeter was also accurate, and had the added benefit of a reduced handling time. Either of these two methods are recommended to be used in further research when a quick and accurate measure of lipid content is needed.
A case for mantle plumes

The existence of at least several plumes in the Earth’s mantle can be inferred with few assumptions from wellestablished observations. As well, thermal mantle plumes can be predicted from wellestablished and quantified fluid dynamics and a plausible assumption about the Earth’s early thermal state. Some additional important observations, especially of flood basalts and rift-related magmatism, have been shown to be plausibly consistent with the physical theory. Recent claims to have detected plumes using seismic tomography may comprise the most direct evidence for plumes, but plume tails are likely to be difficult to resolve definitively and the claims need to be well tested. Although significant questions remain about its viability, the plume hypothesis thus seems to be well worth continued investigation. Nevertheless there are many non-plate-related magmatic phenomena whose association with plumes is unclear or unlikely. Compositional buoyancy has recently been shown potentially to substantially complicate the dynamics of plumes, and this may lead to explanations for a wider range of phenomena, including “headless” hotspot tracks, than purely thermal plumes.
