Effect of nursery habitat degradation on flatfish population : Application to Solea solea in the Eastern Channel ( Western Europe )

Estuaries and coastal waters are essential nursery habitats for many marine species, and especially for flatfishes. Thus, investigating how anthropogenic disturbances affect the quality of these habitats is of major importance to understand their consequences on the population renewal of marine species. The aim of the present study was to analyse the effects of estuarine habitat degradation on the population of the common sole in the Eastern Channel, a key species in the fish community and fisheries in this area. We especially focused on the drastic drop in the surface area and on the low water quality of the Seine estuary, the main river of the Eastern Channel. A geographic Information System (GIS) was used to develop quantitative maps of sole nursery habitats in the Eastern Channel by using a habitat suitability model based on bathymetry and sediment structure. This approach indicated that juvenile densities are low in the Seine estuary with regards to other nursery sectors. Then, thanks to historical maps of the Seine estuary, habitat suitability maps were built for key dates in the modifications of this estuary since 1850. This backward predictive approach suggests that habitat loss in the Seine estuary has led to a 42% decrease of its nursery capacity. As the density of juvenile sole in the Seine estuary is low in comparison to other sectors, this represents only a 3% loss at the sole population scale, in the Eastern Channel. However, when we assumed that prior to anthropogenic disturbance the juvenile density in the Seine estuary might have been equivalent to the current density of adjacent sectors with higher quality, the loss in abundance could be nearly 23% (8–36%). Results suggest that the loss in habitat surface combined with habitat degradation has led to an important loss in the contribution of the Seine estuary nursery to the whole sole population in the Eastern Channel.
Biomaterial Sorbents for Antimony and Tellurium Removal

The present work investigates antimony and tellurium sorption using iron modified natural materials (peat, straw, shingles, moss, canes and sand). Results were obtained using batch tests and the sorption was studied as a function of initial metalloid concentration, pH, temperature and presence of competing substances. The optimal pH interval for sorption of Sb (III) is 6.5 – 9 and 3 – 6 of Sb (V), while tellurium sorption using Fe-modified materials is favourable in wider interval 3 – 9. The impact of temperature on the metalloid sorption capacity of Fe-modified peat was tested at four temperatures: 275 K, 283 K, 298 K, and 313 K, and the sorption capacity increased with increase in temperature for all of the studied metalloids. The calculated thermodynamic parameters suggest that the sorption process is of a spontaneous nature and endothermic.
Clinical Paternalistic Model and Problematic Situation: A Critical Evaluation of Clinical Counseling

Background: Many of health system services are done in clinical counseling. A patient’s expectation of clinical consultation and physician office visits is to obtain diagnostic-remedial results, while such an expectation can be fulfilled only through an active relationship between the doctor and the patient. The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of doctorpatient interaction in an educational clinic in southern Iran. Methods: This is a conversation analysis based on critical approach. So, 33 clinical consultations were analyzed critically. Results: Results showed that paternalistic model is the overall pattern in consultations. This leads to limitation of the patients’ opportunity to participate in their diagnosis and treatment. Powers’ asymmetrical relations lead to conditions in which physicians determine the clinical counseling process. Also, physicians determine the subject of consultation in the counseling period. In this situation, the patients’ concerns were ignored. This ignorance leads to the patients’ suppression in problematic situations. The main point is that the clinical counseling occurs in one general contract that is unwritten but has been known for the two sides of interaction. Conclusion: Clinical counseling can be an active consultation when it included the symmetrical distribution of power and the patient has an active participation in the consultation. Therefore, the new patient-centered approaches can be an appropriate model for access to a type of consultation based on symmetrical power distribution between physician and patient.

OF ISCHAEMIA-REPERFUSION INJURY

Ischaemia and reperfusion injury is a potentially serious problem that is encountered during a variety of medical and surgical procedures, such as thrombolytic therapy, organ transplantation, coronary angioplasty, and cardiopulmonary bypass. The basic pathophysiology of ischaemia and reperfusion injury is microvascular dysfunction which is developed following reperfusion of ischaemic tissues. This phenomenon is manifested as impaired endotheliumdependent dilation in arterioles, enhanced fluid filtration and leukocyte plugging in capillaries, and the trafficking of leukocytes and plasma protein extravasation in postcapillary venules. Activated endothelial cells in the microcirculation produce more oxygen radicals, but less nitric oxide, in the initial period following reperfusion. The resulting imbalance between superoxide and nitric oxide in endothelial cells leads to the production and release of inflammatory mediators (e.g. platelet-activating factor, tumour necrosis factor) and enhances the biosynthesis of adhesion molecules that mediate leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. The inflammatory mediators released as a consequence of reperfusion also appear to activate endothelial cells in remote organs that are not exposed to the initial ischaemic insult. This distant response to ischaemia and reperfusion can result in leukocyte-dependent microvascular injury that is characteristic of the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome.

OF CARBONACEOUS AEROSOLS

Source apportionment of carbonaceous aerosols is a difficult task due to complexity of primary emissions and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation. In recent years, measurement techniques as well as statistical tools have been refined in order to improve this situation. On the one hand, the separation of organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) for 14C (radiocarbon) analysis has been improved so that artefacts on the distinction of fossil and non-fossil sources of OC and EC are reduced (Zhang et al., 2012). On the other hand, aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) has become a frequently used tool to classify the organic aerosol (OA) into hydrocarbon-like OA (HOA), biomass-burning OA (BBOA), low-volatility oxygenated OA (LV-OOA), semi-volatile oxygenated OOA (SV-OOA) and even more fractions (Jimenez et al., 2009). This development has been supported by specific laboratory procedures such as off-line AMS and statistical tools for source apportionment like chemical mass balance (CMB), positive matrix factorization (PMF) and the multilinear engine (ME-2) (Huang et al., 2014).
International Varanid Interest Group Successful Hatching of a Patched Varanus beccarii ( Doria , 1874 ) Egg at the Saint Louis Zoo

Paraffin wax and a section of latex medical glove were used to patch a black tree monitor (Varanus beccarii) egg that ruptured after 118 days of artificial incubation. The embryo continued to develop following the procedure and the egg hatched successfully 39 days later. To date, the juvenile appears healthy with no ill effects from either the rupture or repair of the eggshell. have been used for reptile egg repair (Ackerman et al., 2002; Augustine & Saunders, 2015); published accounts of repairs on ruptured flexible-shelled eggs have utilized pieces of shell from infertile or previously hatched eggs (Maxwell, 2005; Adragna & Madden, 2009), cyanoacrylate adhesives (Ackerman et al., 2002; Davis, 2014), transparent medical dressings (Augustine & Saunders, 2015), and waxes (Maxwell, 2005; Fischer, 2012). Several cases of Varanus eggs rupturing during artificial incubation have been described, involving species from the subgenera Odatria (pygmy monitors) and Euprepiosaurus (tree monitors). For the repair of split Varanus eggs, multiple techniques have been detailed. In one report involving the subgenus Odatria, a ruptured V. acanthurus egg was mended with a section of shell from a previously hatched egg of another species (V. tristis), continued development, and eventually hatched successfully (Adragna & Madden, 2009). Published attempts at fixing eggs of species in the subgenus Euprepiosaurus have produced mixed results. One V. prasinus egg was successfully repaired using tissue (cyanoacrylate) glue (Davis, 2014). However, the embryo of a damaged V. beccarii egg sealed with wax died prior to hatching (Fischer, 2012). Herein, an additional account describing the patching of a ruptured V. beccarii egg is provided. This method of utilizing paraffin wax and a piece of latex glove resulted in a successful hatching.

Information , Communication Technology and System General Pattern Identification of Debugging System

Debugging is an important work in software development. Along with the increasing complexity of the software debugging process also becomes as simple as the original. This paper will discuss the generic pattern of debugging system. Vary approaches and algorithms that have been proposed to build a good debugger system and easily used by system developers. The bug can be the caused by internal or external sources. All debugger software is ideally fulfil 4 principle Heisenberg principle ie, truthful debugging, program context information system development and debugging trails. But actually not all debuggers can meet this requirement. Debugger also can classify in many ways such as source-level and machine-level, stand-alone and IDE, 4GL and 3GL, OS Kernel and Application Level, and Applicationspecific or in-circuit emulation. Debugger architecture can typically divide into 5 layers ie the user interface layer, the kernel layer, OS APIs, OS and CPU, before it touch the user program. Researchers also proposed many techniques in debugging methodologies such as Darwin, message oriented, backtracking approach, and concept assignment (CA). Implementation of CA opens new opportunities to a proposed new model of debugging that can leverage into a high level of software as a part of information system. The CA approach can implement According to the V-model of software development approach. Keywords— debugging, debugger, techniques, general pattern, concept assignment, v-model.
A SOCIOPHONETIC ANALYSIS OF /l/ DARKNESS AND LEBANESE AUSTRALIAN ETHNIC IDENTITY IN AUSTRALIAN ENGLISH

Ethno-cultural varieties of Australian English are expected to grow in the 21 century [10], yet we know little about the phonetic detail of the linguistic repertoires of speakers from the many ethno-cultural groups in Australia. In Australian English, /l/ has been said to be dark in all word positions; however, this has not been thoroughly tested to date. This paper compares the acoustic properties of /l/ produced by Anglo-Celtic Australians (N = 20), and Lebanese Australians (N = 30), who represent the 9 largest ethno-cultural group in Australia. Results from a wordlist task show that word position has the strongest effect on /l/ darkness, such that /l/ is darker word-finally than word-initially, as seen in other varieties of English. This positional effect is observed for both speaker groups, to differing degrees. Further, for Lebanese Australians variability in /l/ darkness is accounted for by gender, ethnic identity, and social networks.
Reconstructing de facto software development methods

Software development is a complex process that requires disciplined engineering approaches. Empirical studies show that companies still don? t document their development practice, or if they do, these are not up-to-date and do not reflect how they really develop software. The main objective of this paper is to propose an approach that can help companies in documenting their real development practice. Comparing to existing approaches that require substantial effort on the side of project members, our approach extracts information on development practice directly from software repositories. Five companies have been studied to identify information that can be retrieved from software repositories. Based on this, an approach to reconstruct development practice has been developed. The approach has been evaluated on a real software repository shared by an additional company. The results confirm that software repository information suffice for the reconstruction of various aspects of development process, i.e. disciplines, activities, roles, and artifacts.
The Use of Dietary Enrichment with Lemon Pomace Powder for the Prevention of Lipid and Protein Oxidation in Carp during Storage at Refrigerator

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dietary enrichment with lemon pomace powder on lipid and protein oxidation of carp fillets during storage at refrigerator. Group 1 of carps as control group was fed with basic diet and groups 2, 3 and 4 were fed with 1.5, 3 and 5% lemon pomace powders, respectively. After the end of the study (4 weeks), 10 fish from each group were randomly captured and stored at 4 °C for 3 days. At the capture time and during storage times, 24, 48 and 72 hours at refrigerator, lipid and protein oxidation parameters of the muscle were evaluated. The results indicated a significant difference in the mentioned indices in group 4 compared to other groups ( P <0.05). Therefore, a diet containing 5% lemon pomace powder is suggested as a natural antioxidant in carp diet to improve the oxidative status and increase the shelf life of the fillet during storage at 4 °C.
Divide-and-Evolve: the Marriage of Descartes and Darwin

D A E X , the concrete implementation of the Divide-and-Evolve paradigm, is a domain-independent satisﬁcing planning system based on Evolutionary Computation. The basic principle is to carry out a Divide-and-Conquer strategy driven by an evolutionary algorithm. The key components of D A E X are a state-based decomposition principle, an evolutionary al-gorithm to drive the optimization process, and an embedded planner X to solve the sub-problems. The release that has been submitted to the competition is D A E YAHSP , the instantiation of D A E X with the heuristic forward search YAHSP planner. The marriage of D A E and YAHSP matches a clean role separation: YAHSP gets a few tries to ﬁnd a solution quickly whereas D A E controls the optimization process.
Time Optimal Self-assembling of 2 D and 3 D shapes : the Case of Squares and Cubes ∗

Self-assembling tile systems are a model for assembling DNA-based nano artefacts. In the currently known constructions, most of the effort is put on guaranteeing the size of the output object, whereas the geometrical efficiency of the assembling of the shape itself is left aside. We propose in this paper a framework to obtain provably time efficient self-assembling tile systems. Our approach consists in studying how the flow of information has to circulate within the desired shape to guarantee an optimal time construction. We show how this study can yield an adequate ordering of the tiling process from which one can deduced a provably time efficient tile systems for that shape. We apply our framework to squares and cubes for which we obtain time optimal self-assembling tile systems.
A Resonant Model of the Action Potential in Cardiac Cells

Mathematical models of the bioelectric activity in the cardiac conduction system can be used to study the impact of drugs, conduct hypothetical experiments, and for closed-loop validation of cardiac devices. These applications demand real-time performance.To meet the goal of real-time simulations, we have developed a high-fidelity mathematical model of cardiac cells. These models, called as Resonant Model (RM), are based on truncated Fourier Series and are adaptable for parallel execution. In this paper, the RM is developed for human atrial myocyte, human inferior nodal extension, and human atrioventricular node. The RMs of these cardiac cells are validated with the experimental data and data obtained from detailed electrophysiology cell models.The RM cells were accurately able to generate the nonlinear AP morphologies with Pearson correlation coefficient above 0.99 between generated and simulated AP morphologies of the detailed cardiac cell models.
Inferring Social Networks from Distributed Bluetooth Scanning

Social behavior of an audience in a large-scale event is a valuable source of information and knowledge that can be exploit with the use of the right tool. Related to this issue, this thesis aims to develop an application, based on Android operative systems, presenting a game that has been called Roskilde Hide and Seek, which presents two different points of view. First of all, seeing as a game, the main goal is to guide the user to find a person in the experimental area, studying two concepts here, the way that the user has found that person and the observation of the ability of the game to motivate the user to move around the experimental area. Second of all, as a source of information, the system has to collect data from mobile devices to perform a social behavior research. The built application converts the mobile devices that have installed the game into distributed scanners by the use of Bluetooth and GPS sensors, which allows to obtain data from each one of the mentioned devices. The application is implemented to run in the area of Roskilde Festival, one of the biggest music festival in Europe and the results obtained after the experiment have been detailed and analyzed, assessing the concept of "gamification" and more specifically, the Roskilde Hide and seek application as a proper tool for the raised issue.
STUDIES IN LOGIC, GRAMMAR AND RHETORIC 27 (40) 2012

In their 2002 article, Ghirardi, Marinatto and Weber proposed a formal analysis of the entanglement properties for a system consisting of N distinguishable particles. Their analysis leads to the differentiation of three possible situations that can arise in such systems: complete entanglement, complete nonentanglement, and the remaining cases. This categorization can be extended by adding one important possibility in which a system is completely entangled, and yet some of its subsystems are mutually non-entangled. As an example I present and discuss the state of a three-particle system which cannot be decomposed into two non-entangled systems, and yet particle number one is not entangled with particle number three. Consequently, I introduce a new notion of utter entanglement, and I argue that some systems may be completely but not utterly entangled.
