TAXONOMIC STRUCTURE OF MICROBIAL ASSOCIATION IN DIFFERENT SOILS INVESTIGATED BY HIGH-THROUGHPUT SEQUENCING OF 16S-rRNA GENE LIBRARY

%), Acidobacteria (up 26.5 %), Verrucomicrobia (up 13.6 %), Bacteroidetes (up 10.5 %), Firmicutes (up 8.2 %), Gemmatimonadetes (up 6.9 %), Chloroflexi (up 5.7 %) and archaea from Crenarchaeota phyla were dominating in microbial associations. The comparison of taxonomic structure of microbial associa- tions indicates that physiochemical factors (acidity and moisture of soil) have a more influence on prokaryote biodiversity than other factors (for example, type of soil or sampling point). So the soils from south regions with lesser moisture contain more the actinobacteria, when the moister north soils contain mainly the proteobacteria. The soils with low pH are characterized by a raise of acidobacteria percent. Taxonomic description of microbial communities for a long time was an intractable problem with significant material and time costs. The complexity of cloning procedure and further sequencing of nucleotide chains impose limitations on number of identified species and investigated habitats (1). A notable advance was achieved by the new generation methods introduced in molecular ecology, e.g. pyrosequencing (2, 3). These approaches have improved the performance of sequencing from hundreds (Sanger's method) to thousands of nucleotide sequences, which now allows the most accurate identification of complex multi- component systems such as soil microbial communities. Currently, several international projects are being working on characterization of the global microbial community. Thus, Earth Microbiome Project (http://www.earthmicrobio-me.org/) has already collected the data on taxonomic structure of microbiomes of different ecological niches obtained with the use of novel sequencers. Within the framework of this project it has been already investigated more than 9.000 samples, i.e. over 800 million nucleotide sequences. However, for Russia, this database contains just about a dozen of samples related to permafrost. The presented work is aimed at filling the existing gap. This task is particularly important in Russia, whose territory exhibits almost all variety of soil types being the most promising experimental area of this kind in the planet. Along with it, studying soil microbial communities by modern methods of sequencing is a practically important step to creating new optimized agricultural technologies. Such approaches can be developed based on features of the soil microbiome as universal and very sensitive indicator of condition of the soil. A starting point to implementation of such projects is a survey analysis of soil microbiomes in different soil types, which task was set in the presented research. Technique. A collection of samples of the most common soil types (in total 20 samples) were derived from different regions
Assessing Principals’ Assessments: Subjective Evaluations of Teacher Effectiveness in Low- and High-Stakes Environments

Teacher effectiveness varies substantially, yet principals’ evaluations of teachers often fail to differentiate performance among teachers. We offer new evidence on principals’ subjective evaluations of their teachers’ effectiveness using two sources of data from a large, urban district: principals’ high-stakes personnel evaluations of teachers, and their low-stakes assessments of a subsample of those teachers provided to the researchers. We find that principals’ evaluations of teachers are quite positive whether the stakes are high or low, but the low-stakes evaluations show substantially more use of lower rating categories, and many teachers rated ineffective on the low-stakes assessment receive “effective” or “highly effective” high-stakes ratings. Teacher characteristics, such as experience, partially explain the discrepancy between the two scores. Also, despite the fact that principals overwhelmingly assign teachers to the two highest rating categories on the high-stakes evaluation, their high- and low-stakes ratings show similar correlations with teacher value-added measures.
Can Combined Ultrasound and Laser Therapy Potentiate the Treatment of a Symptomatic Osteoarthritis? A Case Report

Osteoarthritis of the knee (KOA) is a chronic degenerative musculoskeletal disease associated with functional disability and chronic pain. Currently, physical modalities, such as ultrasound and Laser therapies, are usually prescribed in rehabilitation scenarios as an adjunctive treatment of symptomatic KOA. These therapies have demonstrated great potential to reduce pain and improve the functional capacity of patients with this disease. Thus, the purpose of this case report was to show the effects of prototype equipment specially developed to perform the combined application of therapeutic ultrasound and laser therapy in the symptoms of knee osteoarthritis. The present case reports the use of a prototype of equipment developed to perform the combined application of ultrasound and laser therapy. A 63-year-old woman with KOA for 12 years with painful complaints and worsening of functional capacity was submitted to 12 sessions using the prototype. After treatment, she observed a 95% reduction in pain and a decrease in the WOMAC questionnaire indexes related to pain, morning stiffness, and disability. In addition, to a 50% improvement in the sit and put test. Like this, a single case study shows the efficacy of the combined US and laser therapy on pain and function in the treatment of the symptomatic KOA. The results analyzed, as well as the patient's report make it possible to show the effectiveness in the conjugated treatment and the new equipment.
Expectation Formation and Endogenous Fluctuations in Aggregate Demand

The paper recognizes that expectations and the process of their formation are subject to standard decision making and are determined as a part of equilibrium. Accordingly, the paper presents a basic framework in which the form of expectation formation is a choice variable. At any point in time rational economic agents decide on the basis of the level of utility what expectation formation technology to use and as a consequence what expectations to hold. As economic decisions are conditioned on expectations holding proper or rational expectations eliminates the possibility of ex ante inefficiencies. The choice of expectation formation technology is not trivial as the paper assumes that information gathering and processing are costly. Consequently, economic agents must make informed decisions with the regard to the quality of expectation formation technologies they wish to use. The paper shows that agents' optimization over expectations not only adds on to realism, but also can carry non trivial implications for the behavior of macroeconomic variables. Specifically, the paper illustrates that endogenous expectation revisions can be a source of permanent oscillations in aggregate demand and can prevent an economy from settling into a steady state. In addition, the paper quantifies intangible notions such as overheating, overborrowing, and output gap. Finally, the paper shows that active policy measures can limit inefficiencies resulting from output fluctuations
Performance of a Multicrystalline Photovoltaic Module in Critical Climatic Conditions of Western Rajasthan, India

The energy yield of a Photovoltaic (PV) power plant depends upon the dc power output of the PV module. The irradiance and temperature are the two most important parameters affecting the dc power output. This paper analyses the dc power output of a multicrystalline PV module in the realistic environmental condition with respect to solar irradiance, ambient temperature and cell temperature. The real time data is collected from a 5 MW grid connected solar PV plant located in Jaisalmer, a district in Western Rajasthan. The paper brings forward a crucial and valuable fact that the modules work more efficiently at high temperature and high solar irradiance. For a multicrystalline PV module with maximum dc power output (Pmax) at STC condition equal to 118.687KW, analyzed over a period of one year it is found that maximum dc power output (Pdc) at 22 C ambient temperature and 40 cell temperature is only 72 KW while maximum Pdc at cell temperature around 50-55 C and ambient temperature around 35-38C is 90-92KW. Slight negative temperature coefficient for Pdc with respect to temperature is observed if ambient temperature and cell temperature is greater than 35C and 50C respectively. However power output increases in direct proportion to irradiance outweighing the change in temperature. Higher the irradiance, higher is the dc power output, higher is the efficiency and correspondingly higher is the energy yield of the PV module. The multicrystalline PV module works efficiently and gives high yield in the extremely high temperature of Western Rajasthan. Rajasthan which receives world second largest radiation has the capability to meet the energy demands of India and the world as well if solar energy is harnessed in appropriate way.

Geoarchaeological context of late Pleistocene and early Holocene occupation at the Cooper's Ferry site, western Idaho, USA

Archaeological excavations at the Cooper's Ferry site (10IH73), located in the lower Salmon River canyon of western Idaho, revealed a stratified sequence of cultural occupations that included a pit feature containing stemmed points. However, radiocarbon ages determined on charcoal and bone in the pit feature range between ca. 12,000 yr B.P. and 7300 yr B.P. By considering the effects of postdepositional processes on dated samples, and by comparing the lithostratigraphy, pedostratigraphy, and stable isotope geochemistry of pedogenic carbonates from Cooper's Ferry with other well‐dated stratigraphic sections in the canyon, site geochronology is clarified. Based on the presence of key radiocarbon ages and distinctive stratigraphic criteria, we argue that the initial occupation and interment of lithic artifacts in a pit feature at Cooper's Ferry occurred during the late Pleistocene, between ca. 11,410 and 11,370 yr B.P., and not during the early Holocene. Records of geomorphic change and paleoenvironmental proxy data from the site reveal that early occupation in the lower Salmon River canyon corresponds with evolving riparian ecosystems, which must be considered as a contextual aspect of local prehistoric cultural ecology. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Combining IWC and PSO to Enhance Data Clustering

In this paper we propose a clustering method based on combination of the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the inverse weighted clustering algorithm IWC, It is shown how PSO can be used to find the centroids of a user specified number of clusters and basically uses PSO to refine the clusters formed by IWC. Since PSO algorithm was showed to successfully converge during the initial stages of a global search, but around global optimum, the search process will become very slow. On the contrary, IWC algorithm can achieve faster convergence to optimum solution, Experimental results show that the proposed technique has much potential to improve the clustering process.
BIOLOGICAL SIMULATIONS BY AUTONOMOUS AGENTS: TWO EXAMPLES USING THE NETLOGO ENVIRONMENT.

Simulation of complex biological events by autonomous agents is particularly convenient whenever: i) the events depend on both time and space, and ii) some collective, organized trends emerge at the population level from a few simple properties characterizing each single agent. This has been exemplified by simulating two quite different phenomena, namely: i) the distribution of cod populations in the North Atlantic ocean, and ii) the synchronous activation of brain neurons occurring in many neurological disorders, including epyleptic seizures. In both cases simulations of the observed time dependent trends, although qualitative,provided hints to work out relevant mechanistic hypotheses.

Vinberg’s representations and arithmetic invariant theory

Recently, Bhargava and others have proved very striking results about the average size of Selmer groups of Jacobians of algebraic curves over Q, as these curves are varied through certain natural families. Their methods center around the idea of counting integral points in coregular representations, whose rational orbits can be shown to be related to Galois cohomology classes for the Jacobians of these algebraic curves. In this paper we construct for each simply laced Dynkin diagram a coregular representation (G, V ) and a family of algebraic curves over the geometric quotient V G. We show that the arithmetic of the Jacobians of these curves is related to the arithmetic of the rational orbits of G. In the case of type A2, we recover the correspondence between orbits and Galois cohomology classes used by Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer and later by Bhargava and Shankar in their works concerning the 2-Selmer groups of elliptic curves over Q.

Supersonic mixing and combustion: advance in les modeling

Mixing and combustion in supersonic reacting flows are currently under investigation for new generation launchers and trans-atmospheric vehicles. Experimental results with hydrogen injected at Mach 2.5 in a Mach 2 airstreams showed combustion taking place just in ∼0.6 m: this indicates that supersonic combustion is feasible within short combustors. Large eddy numerical simulations including the subgrid scale (SGS) model, ISCM, developed specifically for supersonic combustion have been done. This model takes into account the effect of compressibility on reaction rates and on mixing. Numerical simulations have revealed that the §ame is unsteady: it anchors at about 15 cm from the injector, develops downstream, and lifts off. Periodical ignition and quenching have been investigated. Also, the combustion regime in supersonic flows has been investigated and is reported.
