Low microzooplankton grazing rates in the Arctic Ocean during a Phaeocystis pouchetii bloom (Summer 2007): fact or artifact of the dilution technique?

We studied the structure and dynamics of the microbial community of Arctic waters during July 2007 using a microzooplankton grazing dilution approach. The sampling covered a latitudinal transect along the East Greenland Sea, and a series of stations in the high Arctic (up to 808500N), west and north of the Svalbard Islands. A main feature of the area was the presence of Phaeocystis pouchetii, which formed dense blooms. Despite the considerable biomass of microzooplankton (mostly large ciliates and dinoflagellates), their grazing impact on phytoplankton, assessed as total chlorophyll a, was significant in only 6 out of 16 experiments, which resulted in 8% of the standing stock being consumed on average. Overall, phytoplankton instantaneous growth rates were very low and even negative at times (range: 20.24 to 0.14; average: 20.04 for total chlorophyll), which could not be attributed to nutrient limitation nor the estimated microzooplankton grazing. We present three non-exclusive explanations for this fact: (i) we were facing a senescent community in which many organisms were dying either as a result of virus infections or for other natural causes, as corroborated by parallel estimates of natural cell mortality using membrane permeability probes; (ii) the widespread and abundant P. pouchetii was probably deterring grazing and adversely affecting the entire planktonic community at the time of the study; and (iii) the dilution technique failed to give a real estimate of grazing (i.e. either nonsignificant or positive slopes), likely as a consequence of trophic cascades (decline of major grazers in the more concentrated treatments) combined with saturated-feeding responses. This last point calls for special attention when intending to use the dilution technique in productive environments, where grazing may be saturated.

Os Ácidos Graxos Poli-insaturados Ômega-6 e Ômega-3 Presentes nas Hemácias Exercem uma Influência Distinta sobre o Tamanho das Partículas de LDL e suas Alterações Estruturais

Resumo Fundamento Embora os ácidos graxos poli-insaturados ômega-3 e ômega-6 (AGPIs n-3 e n-6) tenham efeitos bem conhecidos sobre os fatores de risco de doenças cardiovasculares (DCV), ainda existe um conhecimento limitado sobre como eles afetam os indicadores de qualidade da LDL. Objetivo Avaliar as associações dos AGPIs n-3 e n-6 de hemácias com o tamanho da partícula da LDL, LDL-c pequena e densa (sdLDL-c) e com LDL eletronegativa [LDL(-)] em adultos com fatores de risco para DCV. Métodos Estudo transversal com 335 homens e mulheres de 30 a 74 anos com, pelo menos, um fator de risco cardiovascular. Foram realizadas análises de parâmetros bioquímicos, como glicose, insulina, HbA1c, proteína C reativa (PCR), perfil lipídico, subfrações de lipoproteínas, partícula eletronegativa de LDL [LDL(-)] e seu autoanticorpo, e os AGPIs n-3 e n- 6 de hemácias. Os testes t independente/teste de Mann-Whitney, ANOVA unidirecional/teste de Kruskal-Wallis e regressões lineares múltiplas foram aplicados. Todos os testes foram bilaterais e um valor de p inferior a 0,05 foi considerado estatisticamente significativo. Resultados A relação n-6/n-3 de hemácias foi associada ao aumento dos níveis de LDL(-) (β = 4,064; IC de 95% = 1,381 – 6,748) e sdLDL-c (β = 1,905; IC de 95% = 0,863 – 2,947), e redução do tamanho das partículas de LDL (β = -1,032; IC de 95% = -1,585 − -0,478). Individualmente, os AGPIs n-6 e n-3 apresentaram associações opostas com esses parâmetros, realçando os efeitos protetores do n-3 e evidenciando os possíveis efeitos adversos do n-6 na qualidade das partículas de LDL. Conclusão O AGPI n-6, presente nas hemácias, foi associado ao aumento do risco cardiometabólico e à aterogenicidade das partículas de LDL, enquanto o AGPI n-3 foi associado a melhores parâmetros cardiometabólicos e à qualidade das partículas de LDL.
Field‐aligned current flow associated with intrusion of the substorm‐intensified westward electrojet into the evening sector

Previous studies have indicated that during substorm activity the westward electrojet penetrates into the evening sector poleward of the eastward electrojet. By use of magnetometer data from the polar-orbiting Triad satellite and ground-based magnetometer data it is shown that a region of intense upward field-aligned current flow encompasses the boundary between the eastward electrojet and the substorm-associated westward electrojet and that there is downward current flow both to the north and to the south of the boundary between the two electrojets. This result is interpreted in terms of the transition in electric field polarity at the boundary between the auroral oval and the polar cap reported by Cauffman and Gurnett (1971), and it is suggested that the substorm-associated westward electrojet extension into the evening sector is due primarily to conductivity enhancements and to a lesser extent to electric field ehnancements. Evidence is shown that demonstrates the perturbation pattern observed at 800 km due to electrojet currents flowing in the ionosphere. It is suggested that double sheets of field-aligned currents may flow in the evening sector of the magnetotail during substorms.

Rb-Sr Isotopic Dating of Volcanic Rocks from the Niangniangshan Formation in the Nanjing—Wuhu area and Its Geological Implications

The volcanic rock from the Niangniangshan Formation in the Ningwu (Nanjing—Wuhu) volcanic basin is used for Rb-Sr isotopic dating. The Rb and Sr isotopic ratios of whole rock, K-feldspar, plagioclase and biotite form a good linearity in n(87Rb)/n(86Sr) vs. n(87Sr)/n(86Sr) space. The isochron age of inner-minerals is 133.1±3.2 Ma (MSWD=0.096), which represents the formation age of the volcanic rocks from the Niangniangshan formation. This age is consistent in error with that of underlying volcanic rocks of the Longwangshan and the Dawangshan formations. Chronological comparisons indicate that the volcanic rocks from the Luzong (Lujiang—Zongyang) and Ningwu volcanic basins were formed during a short-term around 130 Ma, implying that the extension of the Lower Yangtze region might achieve its maximum at ca 130 Ma.
Public Administration Leadership and Public Policies

This is a study of Portuguese central public administration addressing leadership typology, using the Full Range Leadership (FRL) model to better understand the leadership effectiveness process (Bass & Avolio, 1994). The study examines of the impact of training, professional experience, and organizational context on managers performance as well as predominant leadership styles. A total of 422 participants in the Portuguese state central public administration responded to this quantitate research.The results indicate that the perception of leadership style differs significantly between leaders and followers, as does the perception of evaluation. Regarding the organization where they work, significant differences were found in the perception of transformational leadership, contingent rewards, laissez-faire, recruitment, training, and evaluation. The association between leadership style and public policies is significant, and this relationship is moderated by whether the participant holds a managerial position. This study tells us what type of leadership is predominant in public administration and its association withpublic policies.
Updates to the validity evidence based on the internal structure of the ASRS-18

The aim of this research was to present updated validity evidence based on the internal structure of the ASRS-18. Two studies were carried out, an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). In the opposite direction to what the literature suggests for the instrument, the EFA indicated the adequacy of the one-factor model, which supported the decision regarding the number of factors to be retained. Once the structure of the scale had been determined, CFA and multi-group CFA analyses were carried out to assess the characteristics of the instrument. The results obtained in the CFA were initially unsatisfactory, with items having high residual correlations, explained by the redundancy of content between items. It was therefore decided to reduce the number of items in the instrument, and the analyses indicated that the scale was suitable for use in both clinical practice and research. Finally, the multi-group CFA showed that the gender variable influenced the scale's response pattern, with women needing a greater latent trait to score higher on the inattention items and a lower trait for the hyperactivity items. The proposed ASRS-18 presents an accurate and stable model for measuring attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). It is suggested that a reduced version of the instrument be used, as well as further research to expand the evaluation of psychometric properties. In the clinical sphere, it is recommended to consider the suggestions presented in the discussions of this study for assessing ADHD symptoms for criterion A according to the DSM.

High‐Precision and Fast Prediction of Regional Wind Fields in Near Space Using Neural‐Network Approximation of Operators

Fine modeling and fast prediction of regional wind field in the middle and upper atmosphere has always been a difficult problem. We designed a neural operator method to solve this problem. We combine the idea of data assimilation with deep learning method to design a regional wind field operator suitable for near space. The annual Root mean square error of the zonal wind and meridional wind of the operator model at the height of 30 km are 0.903 and 0.881, respectively, which is three times that of ConvLSTM. Moreover, we validate the sparse spatio‐temporal modeling method of regional wind field operator at 20/30/40/50 km altitude. The result shows that the model is mesh‐free, and can get high‐precision modeling of different spatio‐temporal resolutions, multiple regions and arbitrary positions at one time, which lays an foundation for fine regional modeling and rapid utilization of near space.
Effect of fragment size on growth and survival rate of Sarcophyton sp.

The Sarcophyton sp. are very strong and dominant in many coral reef areas. Sarcophyton species are characterized by a distinct sterile stalk, a broad, flared, smooth, mushroom-shaped top, with a wide distribution and dominance in numerous coral reef areas extending from the Red Sea and eastern Africa to the western Pacific Ocean. They are cherished in marine aquariums for their diverse colors and adaptability. However, their excessive exploitation has significantly impacted resources and disrupted the balance of the soft coral biome that inhabits coral reefs. The objective of the current study was to assess the impact of fragment size (0.5 × 0.5; 1.0 × 1.0; 1.5 × 1.5; 2.0 × 2.0, and 2.5 × 2.5 cm) on survival rate, growth rate and time of attachment of coral Sarcophyton sp. in a closed seawater system. Each treatment involved three replicates with 20 cuttings per replicate, and the experimental period was 90 days. The experiment showed that the fragment size did not influence the growth rate of oral disc diameter, pedal disk diameter, and the time attachment of Sarcophyton sp. However, the size of the fragment affects the survival rate, height growth rate, and weight of Sarcophyton sp. colonies. These findings collectively suggest that the initial coral fragment size of 1.5 cm was suitable in laboratory conditions.
Determining Minnesota bee species’ distributions and phenologies with the help of participatory science

The Minnesota Bee Atlas project contributed new information about bee distributions, phenologies, and community structure by mobilizing participatory science volunteers to document bees statewide. Volunteers submitted iNaturalist (©2016 California Academy of Sciences) photograph observations, monitored nest-traps for tunnel-nesting bees, and conducted roadside observational bumble bee surveys. By pairing research scientists and participatory science volunteers, we overcame geographic and temporal challenges to document the presence, phenologies, and abundances of species. Minnesota Bee Atlas project observations included new state records for Megachile inimica, Megachile frugalis, Megachile sculpturalis, Osmia georgica, Stelis permaculata, and Bombus nevadensis, nesting phenology for 17 species, a new documentation of bivoltinism for Megachile relativa in Minnesota, and over 500 observations of the endangered species Bombus affinis. We also expanded known ranges for 16 bee species compared with specimens available from the University of Minnesota (UMN) Insect Collection. Surveys with standardized effort across the state found ecological province associations for six tunnel-nesting species and lower bumble bee abundance in the Prairie Parkland ecological province than the Laurentian Mixed Forest or Eastern Broadleaf Forest ecological provinces, indicating potential benefit of a focus on bumble bee habitat management in the Prairie Parkland. Landcover analysis found associations for four tunnel-nesting species, as well as a possible association of B. affinis with developed areas. These data can inform management decisions affecting pollinator conservation and recovery of endangered species. By engaging over 2,500 project volunteers and other iNaturalist users, we also promoted conservation action for pollinators through our educational programs and interactions.

Mercury, Risk, and Justice

In December 2003, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) unveiled its long-awaited proposal for regulating mercury emissions from coal-fired utilities, which it later dubbed the "Clean Air Mercury Rule. " Methylmercury is a potent neurotoxin, leading to irreversible neurological damage; humans are exposed primarily through consuming contaminated fish. The EPA rule relies on a creative interpretation of the Clean Air Act to enlist a cap-and-trade approach for mercury emissions from these sources. The rule sets forth a cap in two phases, ultimately targeting a 70% reduction in mercury emissions by 2018. EPA's rule, however, raises a host of environmental justice issues. First, emissions reductions are more modest and significantly delayed when compared to reductions expected under section 112 of the Clean Air Act. Second, the cap-and-trade approach raises the specter of "hot spots" - local or regional instances of relatively high emissions and, ultimately, exposure - as a result of emissions trading. Third, the EPA's proposal relies heavily on risk avoidance in the form of fish consumption advisories, which ask people to reduce or eliminate fish from their diets in order to avoid exposure to methylmercury. Each of these three features of the rule disproportionately burdens fishing tribes and their members, as well as some communities of color and low-income communities that depend on fish. This article discusses these environmental justice issues, highlighting the particular case of the Ojibwe and other fishing peoples in the Great Lakes.
Data augmentation techniques based on deep learning for Chinese paintings

Chinese paintings are generally divided into calligraphy, white drawing, and brushwork, often painted with ink, metallic pigments, and vegetable pigments using rice paper and cloth with distinct textures as physical carriers, and have a distinctive artistic style. In this paper, we propose a data augmentation method for Chinese-style paintings, which can better generate digital images that match the characteristics of Chinese-style paintings and are as semantically realistic as possible. First, we use SinGAN to train a single Chinese painting and generate 50 data augmentation results, which can reproduce the image texture and brush stroke style of a single Chinese painting. Subsequently, the Repaint model is used to semantically improve the data augmentation results to make them more realistic from a subjective perspective. Finally, we verify the effect of data augmentation in the image classification task based on VGG 16 and InceptionV3 and compare the effect of traditional data augmentation techniques with the deep-learning data augmentation technique proposed in this paper. The experimental results demonstrate that the training set processed by the deep-learning data augmentation technique can improve the prediction accuracy of the classification model, while the prediction accuracy of the classification model is improved again after training on the training set processed by the combination method of the traditional data augmentation technique and the deep-learning technique. This indicates that deep-learning data augmentation techniques can improve the efficiency of image tasks and avoid overfitting, which can be used in the study of the digitization of Chinese paintings.
