What's in a Name? Metaphors and Cybersecurity
Authors: Branch Jordan 
Published: September 2020

AbstractFor more than a decade, the United States military has conceptualized and discussed the Internet and related systems as “cyberspace,” understood as a “domain” of conflict like land, sea, air, and outer space. How and why did this concept become entrenched in US doctrine? What are its effects? Focusing on the emergence and consolidation of this terminology, I make three arguments about the role of language in cybersecurity policy. First, I propose a new, politically consequential category of metaphor:foundational metaphors,implied by using particular labels rather than stated outright. These metaphors support specific ways to understand complex issues, provide discursive resources to some arguments over others, and shape policy contestation and outcomes. Second, I present a detailed empirical study of US military strategy and doctrine that traces the emergence and consolidation of terminology built on the “cyberspace domain.” This concept supported implicit metaphorical correspondences between the Internet and physical space, yielding specific analogies and arguments for understanding the Internet and its effects. Third, I focus on the rhetorical effects of this terminology to reveal two important institutional consequences: this language has been essential to expanding the military's role in cybersecurity, and specific interests within the Department of Defense have used this framework to support the creation of US Cyber Command. These linguistic effects in the United States also have implications for how other states approach cybersecurity, for how international law is applied to cyber operations, and for how International Relations understands language and technological change.

Published: September 2020

AbstractMoonshine worms are a popular bait species used for fishing. The taxon was not detected during surveys of the macrobenthos conducted in Knysna in the 1940s and 1990s, and was first reported as a harvested bait species in the mid-2000s, suggesting that it appeared for the first time in the estuary in the last three decades. A previous molecular analysis identified the worms as Diopatra aciculata, a species first described from Australia. This study provides an updated detailed morphological description of D. aciculata in South Africa to facilitate future identifications and also investigates the species' distribution and population size in the Knysna Estuary. Specimens were examined by scanning electron, stereo- and compound microscopes. Diopatra aciculata has tubes that protrude from the sediment in sandy areas, often decorated with algae and shell fragments; a large body size, up to 600 mm long and 11.5 mm wide. It has 10–18 rings on ceratophores; 5–10 teeth on pectinate chaetae; uni- and bidentate pseudo-compound falcigers and dorsal cirri approximately as long as branchiae. Diopatra aciculata was detected up to 12 km from the mouth of the Knysna Estuary with densities measured at 18 sampled sites. Statistical analysis retrieved high and low density groups that were significantly different from one another (Kruskal-Wallis H(14, 800) = 376.55; P = 0.01), but distribution of high density sites was patchy. We estimate that the population comprises 20–24 million individuals. Given the size of individual worms and the population estimate, this species can be expected to have significant ecological impacts in the estuary.
The use of eye-tracking in experimental approaches in second language acquisition research: the primary effects of Processing Instruction in the acquisition of the French imperfect
Authors: Laval Cécile , Lowe Harriet 
Published: September 2020

ABSTRACTDespite the ample database of research findings on the benefits of Processing Instruction (PI), research thus has primarily made use of offline measures to establish how L2 learners comprehend and process sentences. Using online methodology, such as eye-tracking, allows research to more directly measure implicit knowledge. The sensitivity of these measures requires meticulous design choices to ensure validity and replicability. This study provides an overview of the linguistic and physical design considerations necessary for creating eye-tracking materials in SLA research. The present study demonstrates the application of these design considerations in an eye-tracking study, comparing the changes in processing patterns between two types of instruction: PI and Traditional Instruction (TI) on low intermediate L2 adult learners’ acquisition of the French imperfect aspect. The results of the experimental study show beneficial gains made by L2 learners who received PI on the French imperfect tense, this was seen in both a significant increase in accuracy scores from pre-test to post-test and change in their cognitive processing as shown by eye-movement data. The present study emphasizes the need for future studies to consider methodological reflections and key design principles in eye-tracking research.

Published: September 2020

RESUMENous proposons une réflexion méthodologique sur les choix adéquats dans le cadre d’une étude sur les stratégies d’acquisition du français écrit (L2 pour les sourds) chez quatre enfants sourds profonds de 5 ans, locuteurs L1 de la langue des signes française, notre hypothèse étant que, du fait de leur surdité, ces enfants empruntent des voies différentes de celles des enfants entendants. Nous rendons compte des questionnements méthodologiques posés par l’élaboration des critères d’analyse du corpus d’écrits, questions liées au grand nombre de variables à prendre en compte, aux dimensions à la fois linguistiques, cognitives, sociolinguistiques et didactiques de l’étude et à la nécessité d’adapter le cadre théorique choisi, conçu pour des entendants et impliquant d’autres langues. Nous présentons au final les tout premiers résultats de l’analyse conduite sur des échantillons d’écrits.

Published: September 2020

AbstractObjectives:Depression is common in people living with HIV (PLWH) and can contribute to neurocognitive dysfunction. Depressive symptoms in PLWH are often measured by assessing only cognitive/affective symptoms. Latinx adults, however, often express depressive symptoms in a somatic/functional manner, which is not typically captured in assessments of depression among PLWH. Given the disproportionate burden of HIV that Latinx adults face, examining whether variations in expressed depressive symptoms differentially predict neurocognitive outcomes between Latinx and non-Hispanic white PLWH is essential.Methods:This cross-sectional study included 140 PLWH (71% Latinx; 72% male; mean (M) age = 47.1 ± 8.5 years; M education = 12.6 ± 2.9 years) who completed a comprehensive neurocognitive battery, Wechsler Test of Adult Reading (WTAR), and Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II). Neurocognitive performance was measured using demographically adjusted T-scores. BDI-II domain scores were computed for the Fast-Screen (cognitive/affective items) score (BDI-FS) and non-FS score (BDI-NFS; somatic/functional items).Results:Linear regressions revealed that the BDI-NFS significantly predicted global neurocognitive function and processing speed in the Latinx group (p < .05), such that higher physical/functional symptoms predicted worse performance. In the non-Hispanic white group, the cognitive/affective symptoms significantly predicted processing speed (p = .02), with more symptoms predicting better performance. Interaction terms of ethnicity and each BDI sub-score indicated that Latinx participants with higher cognitive/affective symptoms performed worse on executive functioning.Conclusions:Depressive symptoms differentially predict neurocognitive performance in Latinx and non-Hispanic white PLWH. These differences should be considered when conducting research and intervention among the increasingly culturally and ethnically diverse population of PLWH.
General practitioners’ knowledge of leg ulcer treatment in primary healthcare: an interview study
Authors: Friman Anne , Wiegleb Edström Desiree , Ebbeskog Britt , Edelbring Samuel 
Published: September 2020

Abstract

Aim:
To describe general practitioners’ (GPs’) knowledge and the development of their knowledge regarding leg ulcer treatment when treating patients with leg ulceration at primary healthcare centers.

Background:
Earlier research regarding GPs’ knowledge of leg ulcer treatment in a primary healthcare context has focused primarily on the assessment of wounds and knowledge of wound care products. Less is known about GPs’ understandings of their own knowledge and knowledge development regarding leg ulceration in the everyday clinical context. This study, therefore, sets out to highlight these aspects from the GPs’ perspective.

Methods:
Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 16 individual GPs working at both private and county council run healthcare centers. The data were analyzed inductively using a thematic analysis.

Results:
Four themes were identified. ‘Education and training’ describe the GPs’ views regarding their knowledge and knowledge development in relation to leg ulcer treatment. ‘Experience’ refers to GPs’ thoughts about the importance of clinical experience when treating leg ulcers. ‘Prioritization’ describes the issues GPs raised around managing the different knowledge areas in their clinical work. ‘Time constraints’ explore the relationship between GPs’ sense of time pressure and their opportunities to participate in professional development courses.

Conclusions:
The study shows that the GPs working in primary healthcare are aware of the need for ongoing competence development concerning leg ulceration. They describe their current knowledge of leg ulcer treatment as insufficient and point to the lack of relevant courses that are adapted for their level of knowledge and the limited opportunities for clinical training.

Published: September 2020

AbstractAim:The review aimed to identify factors influencing opioid prescribing as regular pain-management medication for older people.Background:Chronic pain occurs in 45%–85% of older people, but appears to be under-recognised and under-treated. However, strong opiate prescribing is more prevalent in older people, increasing at the fastest rate in this age group.Methods:This review included all study types, published 1990–2017, which focused on opioid prescribing for pain management among older adults. Arksey and O’Malley’s framework was used to scope the literature. PubMed, EBSCO Host, the UK Drug Database, and Google Scholar were searched. Data extraction, carried out by two researchers, included factors explaining opioid prescribing patterns and prescribing trends.Findings:A total of 613 papers were identified and 53 were included in the final review consisting of 35 research papers, 10 opinion pieces and 8 grey literature sources. Factors associated with prescribing patterns were categorised according to whether they were patient-related, prescriber-driven, or system-driven. Patient factors included age, gender, race, and cognition; prescriber factors included attitudes towards opioids and judgements about ‘normal’ pain; and policy/system factors related to the changing policy landscape over the last three decades, particularly in the USA.Conclusions:A large number of context-dependent factors appeared to influence opioid prescribing for chronic pain management in older adults, but the findings were inconsistent. There is a gap in the literature relating to the UK healthcare system; the prescriber and the patient perspective; and within the context of multi-morbidity and treatment burden.

Published: September 2020

AbstractThe Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument (PEPSI) is a state-of-the-art, thermally stabilized, fiber-fed, high-resolution spectrograph for the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) at Mt. Graham, Arizona. During daytime the instrument is fed with sunlight from the 10-millimeter aperture, fully automated, binocular Solar Disk-Integrated (SDI) telescope. The observed Sun-as-a-star spectra contain a multitude of photospheric and chromospheric spectral lines in the wavelength ranges 4200–4800 Å and 5300–6300 Å. One of the advantages of PEPSI is that solar spectra are recorded in the exactly same manner as nighttime targets. Thus, solar and stellar spectra can be directly compared. PEPSI/SDI recorded 116 Sun-as-a-star spectra during the 2017 August 21 solar eclipse. The observed maximum obscuration was 61.6%. The spectra were taken with a spectral resolution of ≈ 250000 and an exposure time of 0.3 s. The high-spectral resolution facilitates detecting subtle changes in the spectra while the Moon passes the solar disk. Sun-as-a-star spectra are affected by changing contributions due to limb darkening and solar differential rotation, and to a lesser extend by supergranular velocity pattern and the presence of active regions on the solar surface. The goal of this study is to investigate the temporal evolution of the chromospheric Na D doublet during the eclipse and to compare observations with synthetic line profiles computed with the state-of-the-art Bifrost code.
The UV/X-ray radiation fields and particle (CME) flows of M dwarf exoplanet host stars
Authors: Brown Alexander 
Published: September 2020

AbstractThe high energy X-ray and UV radiation fields of host stars play a crucial role in determining the atmospheric conditions and habitability of potentially-habitable exoplanets. This paper focuses on the major surveys of the UV/X-ray emissions of M- and K-type exoplanet hosts that have been undertaken by the MUSCLES and MegaMUSCLES Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury programs and associated contemporaneous X-ray and ground-based observations. The quiescent and flaring radiation (both photons and implied particles) were observed from this extensive sample of relatively old, low mass, exoplanet host stars and show that, from the viewpoint of a habitable-zone exoplanet, there is no such thing as an “inactive” M dwarf star. The resulting implications are significant for planetary habitability. Extensive monitoring of the X-ray/UV emission from a representative younger M dwarf is also presented and the direct stellar effects that influence exoplanets during the earlier phases of their formation and evolution discussed.

AbstractWe explored the genetic architecture of metabolic risk factors of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and their clustering in Chinese boys and girls. Seven metabolic traits (body mass index [BMI], waist circumference [WC], systolic blood pressure [SBP], diastolic blood pressure [DBP], total cholesterol [TC], triglyceride [TG], and uric acid [UA]) were measured in a sample of 1016 twins between 8 and 17 years of age, recruited from the Qingdao Twin Registry. Cholesky, independent pathway, and common pathway models were used to identify the latent genetic structure behind the clustering of these metabolic traits. Genetic architecture of these metabolic traits was largely similar in boys and girls. The highest heritability was found for BMI (a2 = 0.63) in boys and TC (a2 = .69) in girls. Three heritable factors, adiposity (BMI and WC), blood pressure (SBP and DBP), and metabolite factors (TC, TG, and UA), which formed one higher-order latent phenotype, were identified. Latent genetic, common environmental, and unique environmental factors indirectly impacted the three factors through one single latent factor. Our results suggest that there is one latent factor influencing several metabolic traits, which are known risk factors of CVDs in young Chinese twins. Latent genetic, common environmental, and unique environmental factors indirectly imposed on them. These results inform strategies for gene pleiotropic discovery and intervening of CVD risk factors during childhood and adolescence.
Deconstructing Tectonics: Ten Animated Explorations
Authors: Scotese Christopher R. , van der Pluijm Ben A. 
Published: September 2020

AbstractThe configuration of continents and oceans of our tectonically active planet is ever changing. Using new, high‐resolution paleogeographic base maps, we created a set of animations that examine key elements of plate tectonics. These time‐ and space‐based paleoglobe reconstructions illustrate continental rifting, continental breakup, ocean ridges and fracture zones, hot spot tracks, arc‐backarc systems, continental collision, terrane accretion, opening‐closing of ocean basins, supercontinent formation, plate velocities, and future Earth. Each animation is supported by a narrative that offers a brief topical overview, some observations to guide a user's exploration, and key references that formulated the main ideas and concepts that became the foundations of modern plate tectonics.
Ocean Surface Currents Reconstruction: Spectral Characterization of the Transfer Function Between SST and SSH
Authors: González‐Haro Cristina , Isern‐Fontanet Jordi , Tandeo Pierre , Garello René 
Published: September 2020

AbstractKnowledge of ocean surface current at high resolutions is crucial for many applications. In addition to the classic satellite altimetry retrieval from sea surface height (SSH), ocean surface currents can be retrieved from sea surface temperature (SST) observations using a transfer function between SST and SSH. Previous works showed the potential of microwave SST observations to reconstruct ocean surface currents using a synergistic approach: an optimal transfer function that combines the phase of SST with the SSH amplitude spectra. This synergistic approach revealed that surface quasi geostrophy (SQG) reconstruction can be enhanced and opened up the possibility to improve spatial resolution of ocean currents retrieved from altimeters observations if infrared SST observations are considered. However, before applying this synergistic approach to satellite observations, we need to analyze and characterize the spectral properties of the transfer function. This spectral characterization of the transfer function allows to exploit the synergy between SST and SSH observations that have different measurement topology and different spatial resolution. Here, we performed a feasibility study using the daily outputs of the operational Mercator global analysis and forecast system at (1/12)° in the western coast of Australia (27–35°S, 107–113°E) spanning from 26 November 2012 to 26 November 2016. Results showed that the mean transfer function in this region presents two well different bands: one characterized by a negative slope slightly steeper (α = −1.2) than the k−1 predicted by the SQG solution for scales smaller than 270 km and another characterized by a plateau for wavelengths larger than 270 km. In addition, the results revealed that the inhomogeneity in dynamics of the flow limits global solutions. Finally, we showed that information contained along the track is enough for a synoptic reconstruction of the flow in this region, which shows the feasibility of applying this methodology to real satellite observations.
Iron Supply by Subglacial Discharge Into a Fjord Near the Front of a Marine‐Terminating Glacier in Northwestern Greenland

Published: September 2020

AbstractGlacial fjords in Greenland show high productivity owing to the runoff of meltwater from the glaciers. Macronutrient dynamics (of nitrate, phosphate, and silicate) associated with subglacial discharge plumes in front of marine‐terminating glaciers are widely cited as important drivers of summer phytoplankton blooms in the fjords. However, the dynamics of iron (Fe), an essential micronutrient for primary production, remain largely unstudied in glacial fjords. To investigate the role of subglacial discharge plumes in Fe supply processes in glacial fjords, a comprehensive survey of Bowdoin Fjord, adjacent to the marine‐terminating Bowdoin Glacier in northwestern Greenland, was conducted. The subglacial discharge of Fe‐rich meltwater induces a buoyancy‐driven upwelling plume in front of the glacier that entrains nutrient‐rich Arctic‐ and Atlantic‐origin waters. The plume water potentially carried 4.5–8.7 × 107 g day−1 of total dissolvable Fe out of Bowdoin Fjord in summer. The concentration of dissolved Fe (dFe) in the plume water (~15.6 nmol kg−1) was 4 times higher than that in the water in the outer part of the fjord (~3.8 nmol kg−1). The dFe:nitrate + nitrite ratio (mmol mol−1) in the plume water varied between 0.58 and 3.2, several orders of magnitude higher than the phytoplankton cellular Fe:nitrate ratio estimated using the hypothetical Fe:C ratio and observed particulate organic carbon:nitrate ratio of the fjord. Hence, the plume water is replete with Fe with respect to phytoplankton demands. Subglacial discharge drives the upwelling of Fe and macronutrients toward the euphotic zone, which is vital for the generation of summer phytoplankton growth in glacial fjords.
Applications and Limitations of Elastic Thermobarometry: Insights From Elastic Modeling of Inclusion‐Host Pairs and Example Case Studies
Authors: Cisneros M. , Befus K. S. 
Published: September 2020

AbstractElastic thermobarometry can be used to constrain the pressure and temperature conditions of mineral crystallization by exploiting the difference in the elastic evolution of a mineral inclusion and its host during cooling and decompression. In this work we examine the pressure‐temperature sensitivity of >5,000 untested inclusion‐host pairs. Hosts such as diamond and zircon are ideal host minerals because their low compressibility makes them rigid containment vessels. Highly compressible inclusions such as albite, graphite, and quartz serve as the most reliable barometers. We provide three case studies of inclusion‐host pairs from different geologic settings to demonstrate the advantages and challenges associated with these mineral pairs. Apatite inclusions in olivine from Yellowstone caldera mostly record negative residual pressures (tension) and suggest magmatic crystallization at ~0.4 GPa. Rutile inclusions in garnet from Verpeneset eclogites record near ambient conditions and do not recover reasonable metamorphic conditions of rutile entrapment. These results suggest that stiff inclusions may have a tensile strain limit, a possible limitation of elastic thermobarometry. Albite inclusions in epidote from a blueschist (Syros, Greece) record geologically reasonable entrapment pressures, but a large range of residual pressures that may be caused by the complex anisotropy of both phases. Our theoretical and applied results indicate that elastic thermobarometry has the potential to be used to understand petrologic processes in diverse geologic environments, including mantle, metamorphic, and magmatic settings but that each elastic thermobarometer requires careful evaluation.
