Climbing the asian water tower

The water cycle in the Himalaya is poorly understood because of its extreme topography that results in complex interactions between climate and water stored in snow and glaciers. Hydrological extremes in the greater Himalayas regularly cause great damage, e.g. the Pakistan floods in 2010, while the Himalayas also supply water to over 25% of the global population. So, the stakes are high and an accurate understanding of the Himalayan water cycle is imperative. The discovery of the monumental error on the future of the Himalayan glaciers in the fourth assessment report of the IPCC is exemplary for the scientific misconceptions which are associated to the Himalayan glaciers and its water supplying function. The underlying reason is the huge scale gap that exists between studies for individual glaciers that are not representative of the entire region and hydrological modelling studies that represent the variability in Himalayan climates. In CAT, I will bridge this knowledge gap and explain spatial differences in Himalayan glacio-hydrology at an unprecedented level of detail by combining high-altitude observations, the latest remote sensing technology and state-of-the-art atmospheric and hydrological models. I will generate a high-altitude meteorological observations and will employ drones to monitor glacier dynamics. The data will be used to parameterize key processes in hydro-meteorological models such as cloud resolving mechanisms, glacier dynamics and the ice and snow energy balance. The results will be integrated into atmospheric and glacio-hyrological models for two representative, but contrasting catchments using in combination with the systematic inclusion of the newly developed algorithms. CAT will unambiguously reveal spatial differences in Himalayan glacio-hydrology necessary to project future changes in water availability and extreme events. As such, CAT may provide the scientific base for climate change adaptation policies in this vulnerable region.
LAYING PLATE FOR USEFUL SURFACES

The invention relates to a laying plate for useful surfaces, comprising a grille or honeycomb plate (2) made of plastic, having a perimetric outer frame (4) having frame walls (5), having coupling devices (8, 11) on the outside of the frame walls, and having inner support walls (13), which provide the plate interior with grille or honeycomb openings (14) and which form the grille or honeycomb structure. It is essential that a barrier layer (3) permeable to water yet impermeable to fine filling material is or can be fastened to the underside contact surface (12) of the grille plate (2) so as to completely cover said contact surface. Thus, fine material such as fine gravel or sand can no longer migrate or be drawn downward into the subsurface.

Mechanisms of regeneration initiation

Injury poses a key threat to all multicellular organisms. However, while some animals can fully restore lost body parts, others can only prevent further damage by mere wound healing. Which molecular mechanisms determine whether regeneration is induced or not is an unsettled fundamental question. I will use whole body regeneration, one of the most fascinating biological processes, as an experimental paradigm to identify the mechanisms of regeneration initiation. As a model organism I will employ planarians, flatworms with extraordinary plasticity that regenerate every piece of their body within a few days. I will mechanistically dissect how these animals rapidly induce an efficient regeneration program in response to tissue loss and define the key switches that determine whether a wound regenerates. Combining the astonishing regenerative abilities of planarians with new technologies I will first comprehensively describe the molecular changes occurring during the amputation response. Second, with a powerful novel assay developed in my lab - dormant fragments - that allows for the first time the separation of wounding from tissue loss in a single planarian, I will analyze the dynamics of the earliest regenerative events. Third, I will functionally characterize the regeneration-initiating signals and their target pathways combining in vivo RNAi and phenotypic assays. Fourth, with a regeneration-deficient planarian species, I will test whether the identified key regulators act as network nodes that can be utilized to rescue regeneration. Importantly, using vertebrate paradigms, such as the regenerating zebrafish fin, I will investigate conserved roles of these network nodes and validate general principles of regeneration initiation. This project will not only uncover conserved mechanisms of regeneration initiation but will also identify the switches that must be levered to induce regeneration in non-regenerating animals.

Studying the community corrections field: Applying neo-institutional theories to a hidden element of mass social control

The growth in US incarcerated populations has produced unintended negative consequences for other justice system agencies. The community corrections field is faced with two related problems stemming from prison growth: (1) significant growth in populations under supervision and (2) populations with higher needs for service. I apply a theoretical framework adapted from organizational sociological research to address change and stasis as isomorphic processes. Criminologists rarely situate the community corrections field within broader theoretical perspectives. Instead, correctional researchers have studied the emergence, adjustment, and use of prisons in modern society, with community supervision considered a part of institutional corrections. I argue that contemporary explanations for correction policies need to be refined to account for specific trends within the community corrections field.
Autonomous dronistics for security (ads): optimized services with fleets of flying robots

Flying drones promise to replace many civilian services currently requiring humans by means of robots performing product delivery, agricultural monitoring, inspections and maintenance, damage assessments. For this vision to be concretized, drones need to be safe, reliable, available on demand and most importantly fully automatic. This revolution is facing three challenges: the design of services that are possible to be executed within the regulations; the development of landing stations that the drones can exploit as docking point to recharge their batteries; the development of a master-control software that deals with coordination and optimization of the flights and operations of the drones performing the service.
The project Autonomous Dronistics for Security (ADS) is addressing the key technical challenges that all drone automation companies are facing today and that, if solved, will open the drone services market to existing and new industries. ADS innovation will solve these challenges by the use of a platform managing transparently operations with small multi-copters and a network of landing/recharge stations. The ADS system controls navigation, video feeds from the drones, and the operation strategy in a fault tolerant and law-abiding way. The software is able to program the flight plan best for each individual drone taking into account dynamically its role in the overall mission; The hardware ensures a permanent operation of the drones despite the limited autonomy and range of drones. The development of this innovation will allow for the first time to coordinate and manage in a fully automated way fleets of drones. The feasibility study of ADS focuses on one particular business case: the use of drones for automatic video-surveillance and alarm response.
Improvement in efficiency of fibre utilization by the Canadian forest products industry 1970 to 2010

The Canadian forest products industry uses as much as 200 million cubic metres of wood per year to make a wide variety of products. The three main sectors produce millions of tonnes of pulp and paper, many million cubic metres of sawn lumber and a growing volume of wood-based panels. How efficient are we at making useful products from the vast volumes of conifers and hardwoods harvested each year? Is the utilization efficiency of the industry improving, stagnant or declining? Over the 40-year period covered by this report our efficiency has improved significantly. In 1970 only 61% of harvested wood was converted into useful products. In 2010 utilization efficiency had improved and 83% of harvested wood was converted to products to serve the needs of our customers around the world.
Characteristics of Smallholder Goat Production at Selected Communities in Cross River State, Nigeria

This study was conducted in eight communities (Akamkpa, Calabar, Ikom, Obubra, Obudu, Odukpani, Ogoja and Ugep) in Cross River State using structured questionnaires to evaluate characteristics of smallholder goat production in the state. A total of 1200 questionnaires were administered randomly in the eight communities. The results showed that 25% of household owners of goats were females, while 75% commercial goat farms employed male labor. West African Dwarf goat was the common breeds of goats raised in the eight communities.  Majority of the household owners of goats practiced free-range system of production (57.57%), while a large percentage (75%) of the commercial goat farms practiced intensive system of production. There were no specialized housing and feeding programs, with a larger percentage of both categories feeding crop residues and cowpea husk to the goats. The household owners of goats seldom feed forage to their goats (17.86%), while 25% commercial goat farms feed forage to the goats. The common diseases in the area were diarrhea, pneumonia, Peste des petite ruminate (PPR) and mange. Control breeding was not practiced. The constraints to goat production in the area-included accidents, season lack of feed, diseases, theft, lack of capital and land.

Deterministic Network Model Revisited: An Algebraic Network Coding Approach

The capacity of multiuser networks has been a long-standing problem in information theory. Recently, Avestimehr et al. have proposed a deterministic network model to approximate multiuser wireless networks. This model, known as the ADT network model, takes into account the broadcast nature as well as the multiuser interference inherent in the wireless medium. For the types of connections we consider, we show that the results of Avestimehr et al. under the ADT model can be reinterpreted within the algebraic network coding frame- work introduced by Koetter and Medard. Using this framework, we propose an efficient distributed linear code construction for the deterministic wireless multicast relay network model. Unlike several previous coding schemes, we do not attempt to find flows in the network. Instead, for a layered network, we maintain an invariant where it is required that at each stage of the code construction, certain sets of codewords are linearly independent.

Diffusion Tensor Imaging Findings of White Matter Changes in First Episode Schizophrenia: A Systematic Review

Earlier structural magnetic resonance imaging in schizophrenia have noted smaller white matter volumes in diverse brain regions and recent diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) studies have allowed better elucidation of changes in brain white matter integrity within the illness. As white matter abnormalities have been reported to occur early in the course of schizophrenia, we systematically review extant DTI studies of anomalies of white matter integrity in first episode schizophrenia (FES) up till October 2011. Overall, disruptions of white matter integrity were found in the cortical, subcortical brain regions and white matter associative and commissural tracts, suggesting that changes of cortical-subcortical white matter integrity were found at an early stage of the disorder. These changes in white matter integrity were correlated with specific cognitive deficits (verbal and spatial working memory) as well as psychopathology (positive more than negative symptoms) in patients with FES. The correlation of these white matter integrity changes with cognitive and phenomenological factors may shed light on neurobiological substrates underlying these clinical manifestations. Future studies need to validate these findings in larger samples of subjects and in different populations as well as chart the progress of these cerebral white matter changes over time so as to better appreciate their trajectory with illness course, treatment and chronicity.

Systematic decoding of deubiquitylase-regulated signaling networks

Cellular processes are largely governed by sophisticated protein posttranslational modification (PTM)-dependent signaling networks, and a systematic understanding of regulatory PTM-based networks is a key goal in modern biology. Ubiquitin is a small, evolutionarily conserved signaling protein that acts as a PTM after being covalently conjugated to other proteins. Reversible ubiquitylation forms the most versatile and largest eukaryote-exclusive signaling system, and regulates the stability and function of almost all proteins in cells. Deubiquitylases (DUBs) are ubiquitin-specific proteases that remove substrate-conjugated ubiquitin, and thereby regulate virtually all ubiquitylation-dependent signaling. Because of their central role in ubiquitin signaling, DUBs have essential functions in mammalian physiology and development, and the dysregulated expression and mutation of DUBs is frequently associated with human diseases. Despite their vital functions, very little is known about the proteins and ubiquitylation sites that are regulated by DUBs and this knowledge gap is hampering our understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which DUBs control diverse biological processes. Recently, we developed a mass spectrometry-based proteomics approach that allowed unbiased and site-specific quantification of ubiquitylation on a systems-wide scale. Here we propose to comprehensively investigate DUB-regulated ubiquitin signaling in human cells. We will integrate interdisciplinary approaches to develop next-generation cell models and innovative proteomic technologies to systematically decode DUB function in human cells. This will enable a novel and detailed understanding of DUB-regulated signaling networks, and open up new avenues for further research into the mechanisms and biological functions of ubiquitylation and of ubiquitin-like modifiers.
Associations among diet costs, food prices and income: Elasticities of risk and protection food groups for cardiometabolic diseases in Sao Paulo, Brazil (2003–2015)

Background: Economic dimension comprises important determinants of food choices, particularly income and prices. Aim: Identification of the influence of food prices and diet costs on the consumption of food groups considered protection and risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases. Methods: Food groups classification follows the proposal of “What we eat in America?” from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), adapted to Latin America. Data on food consumption from the Health Survey of Sao Paulo (2003, 2008, and 2015), representative at population level, was used. Log-linear regressions were estimated for food groups, controlling for endogeneity through augmented regression-test Results: Results showed increase in prices per calorie of whole grains and red meat from 2003–2015 and a decrease in prices per calorie of fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes, oilseeds and fish/seafood. Food groups had price elasticities between −0.01 and −1.6, i.e., decrease in consumption associated with increase in prices. Results showed statistically significant effects of substitution and complementarity, particularly substitution between sweetened beverages and fruits (2003, β = 0.606; 2008: β = 0.683; 2015, β = 0.848), complementarity between nuts and seeds and whole grains (2003, β = −0.646; 2008, β = −0.647; 2015, β = −0.901), and vegetables and processed meat (2003, β = −1.379; 2015, β = −1.685). Conclusion: Findings of the study represent relevant evidence for design strategies towards the adoption of healthier diets, particularly through subsidies to protection food groups, promoting lower prices and higher diet quality. The evidence may be useful for policymakers and researchers in fields of nutrition and health in diverse countries worldwide, especially due to absence of robust evidence in literature.
Mining Association Rules for Neurobehavioral and Motor Disorders in Children Diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy

Children diagnosed with cerebral palsy (CP) appear to be at high risk for developing neurobehavioral and motor disorders. The most common disorders for these children are impaired visual-perception skills and motor planning. Besides, they often have impaired executive functions, which can contribute to problematic emotional adjustment such as depression. Additionally, literature suggests that the tendency to develop these cognitive impairments and emotional abnormalities in pediatric CP is influenced by age and IQ. Because there are many other medical co-morbidities that can occur with CP (e.g., seizures and shunt placement), prediction of what percentages of patients will incur cognitive impairment and emotional abnormality is a difficult task. The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations between possible factors mentioned above, and neurobehavioral and motor disorders from a clinical database of pediatric subjects diagnosed with CP. The study resulted in 22 rules that can predict negative outcomes. These rules reinforced the growing body of literature supporting a link between CP, executive dysfunction, and subsequent neurobehavioral problems. The antecedents and consequents of some association rules were single factors, while other statistical associations were interactions of factor combinations. Further research is needed to include children's comprehensive treatment and medication history in order to determine additional impacts on their neurobehavioral and motor disorders.
