user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Combining MIMO Radar with MU-MIMO Communications: More than Coexistence (ComRad)'.

assistant: **Concept**

Frequency spectrum has nowadays become one of the most valuable assets, as the wireless communications devices and services are growing explosively. Realising the scarcity of the spectrum, future wireless systems are exploring the feasibility to use the spectrum that is currently occupied by radar systems, such as 3.4GHz and 5.6GHz bands used by airborne and shipborne radars. With the allocation of available spectrum to newer communication technologies, the interference in radar bands is on the rise consequently. Therefore, effective interference management approaches are needed for achieving the spectral coexistence between the current radar and communication services. More fundamentally, dual-functional systems that can simultaneously perform remote sensing and transmit useful information via classical communications could be an essential solution in the future, which not only ensures the spectral coexistence but also the improvement for both radar and communication’s performance. The goal of ComRad is to develop novel signal processing techniques for transmit and receive beamforming, waveform design, signal classification/recognition, and channel estimation, to enable the exploitation of radar spectrum for communication applications, with particular focus on 1) coexisting communication and radar systems (C-ComRad), and 2) Dual-functional Communication-Radar Systems (D-ComRad). The main research approaches that will be employed include the cutting-age concepts of interference exploitation, manifold based optimization and machine learning. The research outputs will have a significant impact on the applicant’s career prospects enabling him to obtain a leadership position in academia or industry. More importantly, it will also contribute to the efficient usage of the spe

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Precipitation pattern effects on plant-soil microbial interactions' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Global environmental change is predicted in Europe to result in increased frequency and intensity of extreme climatic events, including severe droughts and intense precipitation events. Such changes will affect plant physiology, microbial activity and soil nutrient cycling, inducing changes in ecosystem functioning, with expected consequences on in plant community composition, net primary productivity and carbon balance. Thus, it is crucial to consider the effect of precipitation patterns of contrasted amplitude on the plant-soil interaction. The main objective of this project is to understand the mechanisms of the coupling between precipitation patterns and carbon and nitrogen cycling in the plant-soil microbial system. The effect of precipitation patterns of contrasting amplitude will be addressed in a multidisciplinary approach combining state-of-the-art molecular techniques with stable isotope approaches to enable a detailed understanding of the functioning of the plant-soil system that ultimately relates belowground fluxes to the activity of the soil microbial population. Changes in the structure of the active microbial community over the long term will be assessed using a high-density oligonucleotide microarray chip, a cutting-edge tool which allows to assess which prokaryotic operational taxonomic units are active in the soil. The fluxes of carbon and nitrogen between plant and soil microbes will be determined using isotopic methods. The mechanisms underlying plant-soil microbial interactions in response to contrasting precipitation patterns will be identified under controlled conditions during the outgoing phase then validated in the field during the return phase, enabling valuable insight into the future implications of changes in European summer climate for pl

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Lignin and carbohydrate acylation in nonwoody plant cell-walls: Structural role, enzymatic cleavage and biotechnological relevance' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The aim of this proposed Marie Curie project is to investigate lignin vs hemicellulose acylation/deacylation in different non-woody angiosperms in connection with plant cell-wall structure and degradability. The focus will be on the use of esterases to remove acylating groups and to cleave the lignin-carbohydrate interface. Such an approach would help to develop a ‘white biotechnological’ process to enzymatically pretreat plant biomass for downstream applications, such as biofuel and the preparation of platform chemicals, while retaining the natural structures of the three main components of lignocellulosic material: cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. The approach will be multidisciplinary in as much as enzymology will be coupled with 2D-NMR analysis, microbiology, molecular biology, and structural biology to understand the interaction between enzyme and substrate. Interactions with companies, economists and social scientists will be sought to develop research in relation to market and societal drivers. Further training in project management and proposal preparation will be undertaken allowing the applicant to progress his scientific career from leading small national projects and partner-specific tasks towards workpackage leadership and coordination of larger multidisciplinary projects. Furthermore, a workshop designed to bring together world-leading scientists in the science and exploitation of lignin and plant polysaccharides is planned to be run by the applicant towards the end of the project.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Self-organisation and barrier functions of the mammalian glycocalyx – Training glycoscientists across disciplines and borders to stimulate new approaches, understanding and biomedical applications' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Virtually all mammalian cells are covered with a dense and complex coat of sugar chains (glycans) known as the glycocalyx, which is essential for multicellular life. Interfacing the cell surface with the cellular environment, glycocalyces accomplish critical functions in signalling and communication between cells, controlling tissue development, homeostasis and repair, inflammatory and immune responses, neuronal connectivity, and symbiosis with gastrointestinal bacteria. However, when dysregulated, they can promote immune diseases, neurodegeneration and cancer. While glycocalyces act as the first line of defence against pathogens, some pathogens have evolved to hijack the glycocalyx to promote infection. Despite their importance, mammalian glycocalyces remain the ‘dark matter’ of biology, under-studied owing to the historical lack of preparative and analytical tools to probe the local molecular composition and transient interactions of molecules within glycocalyces, and missing physics rules to interpret experimental observations. The GLYCOCALYX Doctoral Network will provide 15 doctoral candidates with training in bespoke physics, chemistry and biology methods – essential disciplines that will be integrated to enable us to resolve the dynamic organisation of glycocalyces, and how they perform the many selective barrier functions essential to multicellular life. We will develop chemical, analytical and computational TOOLS for glycocalyx research and use them to define physics and molecular RULES that underpin glycocalyx self-organisation and barrier functions. Practical scientific training in state-of-the-art research methods will be complemented by a coordinated programme of industry-relevant transferable skills tailored to prepare the doctoral candidates for future car

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Innovative Distribution with Intermodal Freight Operation in Metropolitan Areas' (IDIOMA) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The success of intermodal transport depends strongly on the managerial and organisational performance of the pre -and end -haulage of the intermodal transport leg. IDIOMA will show how distribution of goods in metropolitan areas can be improved through several demonstrators : - The Tresund region with Helsingborg and Malm represents a suitable basis for coordinated and composite distribution concepts including intermodal transport sea/road as well as rail/road. - Provided with different technological solutions, N_rnberg will demonstrate cooperative inbound city logistics : starting consolidation at the far end of the transport chain, the consignee, and using intermodal transport to cover the long haulage leg to a freight center. - In large metropolitan areas, traffic conditions are getting worse. There will be value in integrating real time traffic information into transport logistics planning decisions which will be demonstrated in Paris via 4 intermodal terminals. - In the Amsterdam-The Hague-Rotterdam-Utrecht region (Randstad) a new concept for linking multiple freight distribution centres and terminals by rail (Flownet) will be tested. The demonstrators of IDIOMA will not conceal the problems which still exist in operating intermodal transport, but they will open the way to new perspectives by introducing new management schemes, organisational measures and technological means to achieve, finally, a more environmentally friendly system for the transport of goods in metropolitan areas. %Paris, Tresund (Malm"...), Nuremberg, Randstad %Surff, Imprend, Cost 321, FV2000, Reform, Cometa, Flihtt, Impulse, Tactics, Lean, Cost 339"

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'European Women and Religious Dissent: The Advent of Modernity and the Democratic Public Sphere' (EuWoRD).

assistant: **Innovation**

At a time when fundamentalisms and populisms threaten basic human rights, it is extremely important to investigate the roots of European values such as egalitarianism and democracy, in order to contribute to popular and scholarly debates on these subjects in an informed way. Addressing the historical relationship between religion and ideas of modernity, the EuWoRD project aims to provide a better understanding of laypersons contribution (women and men) to the development of the Enlightenment, when democratic concepts gradually emerged as basic rights. It addresses particularly the history of a religious minority in seventeenth-century Europe, the Dutch Collegiant movement, and pursues a specific goal: to reveal how the practice of enlightened concepts and the participation of women in free-discussion meetings co-created the development of enlightened values. The theory did not cause the practice: both were mutually implicated in development. To pursue this goal, the EuWoRD project blends the methodologies of social history, gender history, history of ideas and political philosophy, and has two objectives: 1) an updated account of the Collegiants practices, the presence of women among their ranks, and their European network, regarding their meetings as interconfessional free associations that fostered the birth of an early public sphere; 2) an examination of the interrelations between the Collegiants practices and the concepts they advocated, focusing on their debates on gender equality and womens right to free speech, and revealing how these debates were related to similar ones throughout Europe. Due to its originality and interdisciplinarity, the EuWoRD project will have a major impact on several fields of study, as well as on the general public. Indeed, research outco

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Small agro-energy farm scheme implementation for rescueing deserting land in small Mediterranean islands having water and agricultural land constraints' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Innovation**

Objectives The aim is to show how and at what cost new vegetation in arid or deserted coastal areas could be initiated by a simple bio-energy scheme including an advanced power plant of small size (around 100kWe) with electricity generation based on biomass liquid or gaseous fuel. This feasibility study of a small scale project enclosing a pilot cultivation of energy crops, totally self-sufficient in terms of water and energy supply capability (RO/Distillation system for sea water desalination and a generator set fuelled by biomass), constitutes an essential element for the reconstruction of a good quality artificial soil and could demonstrate an ability to arrest the desertification process. Great importance has to be given to the study and the improvement of crop characteristics in relation to soil composition, crop and irrigation system, etc., because of their influence on energy / water production. Technical Approach Considering an area of about 10 ha on a remote deserted coastal land of Tenerife, the biomass production cycles could begin with crops requiring low water inputs. In order to restore a good quality soil which could be suitable for cultivation, an artificial soil (thickness of about 50-80 cm) will be studied in collaboration with the Institut für Pflanzenbau and ITER. This could be a mixture of local soil and organic matter (compost made from local urban wastes /sludge) improved by some water-retaining low-evaporation crystal grains. Only desert areas located near the sea are considered, giving a water supply for the desalination plant. Energy for the desalination unit will come from a biomass power plant: during the full working cycle, power production would be sufficient to obtain, besides water for the energetic cultivations, some desalinated water fo

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Large scale structure of the Universe and fundamental physics'.

assistant: **Concept**

The purpose of this cosmology project is to study the content and evolution of our Universe using the distribution of matter on large scales. A key goal of forthcoming galaxy surveys is probing fundamental physics, such as the mass of neutrinos and the nature of dark energy, the component sourcing cosmic acceleration. The analysis and interpretation of their data crucially relies on the development of perturbation theory methods and other theoretical tools to describe and predict the evolution of large scale structures in the universe, particularly in the non-linear regime. This project aims to establish the optimal approach to compute the growth of structures and to extract information about dark energy and neutrino masses from the data.This action will address important questions in non-linear structure formation. More specifically, I will 1) devise efficient techniques to obtain information on non-linear clustering from data and apply it to bispectrum estimators and BAO reconstruction; 2) obtain the predictions for general massive neutrinos and dark energy models, beyond the power spectrum; and 3) improve the precision of semi-analytical methods to compute non-linear perturbations on small scales; A very concrete goal of the project is to produce a numerical code and make it public. This code will find direct application in the forecast and analysis of the data from the Euclid mission and other galaxy surveys, to probe the properties of neutrinos and the nature of gravity.In the outgoing phase I will work at University of California, Berkeley (US) to benefit from its great involvement in galaxy surveys and expertise in studies of large scale structure in connection to observations. In the return phase I will work in the Institut de Physique Théorique Saclay (France)

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Long-term consequences of environmental changes on biodiversity: incorporating life history traits and time dimension when assessing and predicting the loss of functional and phylogenetic complexity.' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Not all species equally respond to environmental changes, and some are better adapted than others to cope with the new challenges. The loss of functional and phylogenetic diversity driven by habitat loss has a great potential to alter ecosystem functioning and reduce stability, and thus impact the long-term sustainability of ecosystem services. Previous assessments on the causes and consequences of biodiversity loss due to human activities commonly adopted a space-for-time substitution approach to quantify the impacts of habitat alteration, but the impacts on ecosystem functions and evolutionary history over time still remains to be uncovered. I propose to advance the knowledge by using a multidisciplinary approach that combines long-term monitoring and survey, niche analysis, GIS tools, phylogenetic comparative analyses and ecological modelling to understand why certain species are better prepared to respond to environmental changes than others, and how the spatiotemporal variation in responses to habitat changes alters the structure of communities in terms of functional and phylogenetic diversity. Building on classic life history theory and modern theoretical and empirical work, I intend to integrate autoecology and community ecology to investigate the causes and long-term consequences of urbanisation and agriculture to the biodiversity of avian communities.  The outcomes will provide us a general picture of the impact of land use change on biodiversity, allowing to better guide management decisions, and may also allow us to assess the extent to which functional diversity is more protected in species rich assemblages. I propose to develop this project under the supervision of Professor Daniel Sol, an international reference in life-history theory and responses of orga
