Published: April 2021

Abstract
To balance conflicting ocean uses, coastal resource management, and marine development, a governance framework that must be sustainable, holistic and informed is needed. The RRR concept is a basis for managing the resources of coastal and marine areas within the scope of determination of territorial sea boundaries (restriction), boundaries of authority (rights / permits and responsibilities), which form integration between administrative areas at the national scale, provincial scale, and district / city scale. by paying attention to the existence of indigenous peoples, as well as the harmony and synergy between the central government and local governments. One of the utilization of sea space is the Port Work Environment Area, there are many port management models in Indonesia, there are public ports, and terminals for their own interests (TUKS). PT.Petrokimia Gresik is one of the industries owned by the State or State-Owned Enterprises (BUMN) which has a port with Terminal for Interest (TUKS) model. In this research, an evaluation was carried out related to the application of RRR (Right, Restriction, and Responsibility)cadastre concept in the industrial coastal areas of PT Petrokimia Gresik and the surrounding coastal areas. The identification process is carried out on each RRR (Right, Restriction, and Responsibility) cadastral concept, which aims to evaluate its suitability. The Right concept is implemented in the form of a water area management permit owned by the industry. Then for the application of Restriction concept, it is implemented in form of boundaries for management of water areas around the coastal areas and waters of PT Petrokimia Gresik which is analyzed using NDWI (Normalized Different Water Index) classification method to obtain boundaries of the water area, the results of the analysis of land use changes of water areas to land in the number of additional areas for 4 years amount 438,723 m2. While the concept of Responsibility is implemented in form of protecting ecosystems around PT. Petrokimia Gresik’s industrial areas through activities related to environmental management written in environmental permits that have been pocketed by PT. Petrokimia Gresik.

Abstract
Difficulties encountered in the DInSAR technique is the temporal and geometric decorrelation. This method’s main objective is to identify a single-pixel called Permanent Scatter (PS) over a long-time-interval and for a wide-angle of view variation. In this study, we aim to use the PS-InSAR technique to monitor land surface changes in the LUSI mud volcano area with coherence threshold difference analysis using the Sentinel 1A data set using SARPROZ as a tool. The land surface change that is our focus is west and east of the LUSI. Sentinel 1A data processing with different coherence threshold, affecting the number of PS points formed. Based on Fisher’s test on each coherence threshold showed that cumulative displacement and velocity did not differ significantly. During the 3 years since 2017 - 2019, the West LUSI region experienced average cumulative subsidence of -47.95 mm with an average velocity decline of 19.20 mm/year. The East LUSI region experiences average cumulative subsidence of 60.86 mm in the year, with an average velocity decline of 24.37 mm/year. The results of subsidence and velocity in this study are still in the line of sight (LOS)

Abstract
Providing geospatial data and information services like the Indonesian geoid model is one of the important things on implementation of The Regulation of Head of the Geospatial Information Agency (BIG) No. 15 of 2013 about Indonesia Geospatial Reference System 2013 (SRGI2013). The geospatial information service requires innovation to fulfill the needs of the user. The provision of Indonesian geoid model with various grid resolutions is one of the forms of renewal that designed to meet the needs of users based on the accuracy level that needed. Each geoid model with a different grid resolution will produce different geometries as well. Therefore, the value of geoid undulation on a certain coordinate will be different according to the grid resolution. Based on that case, this paper will analyze the accuracy of The Indonesian geoid model based on the various grid resolution. Grids resolution that used in this case is 36”, 1’, 2.5’, and 5’. The accuracy of the geoid model is obtained from the standard deviation of the difference between geometric undulation values and gravimetric undulation values in 186 control points. The result of this study shows that Indonesian geoid model with the grid resolution 36”, 1’, 2.5’, and 5’ have the geoid accuracy 5.129 cm, 6.472 cm, 9.584 cm, dan 13.942 cm sequentially. Based on that result, we can conclude that the less grid resolution of geoid model will produce a higher accuracy of the geoid model. In addition, this study could be a consideration for every user to use the Indonesian geoid model based on their need and specification.
Extracting features from wrist vein images using fractional fourier transform for person verification

Published: April 2021

Abstract
One of the major concerns is the security and protection of individuals’ privacy in society. Biometric methods have been developed in recent years and they are widely used in many places and devices to protect information and assets. Wrist veins are inside the body and their pattern is unique for each person. In this paper, the PUT wrist vein dataset is used that comprises of palm and wrist vein images and each section has 1200 images of right and left hand. Wrist vein images are analyzed in the time-frequency domain by applying Fractional Fourier transform (FrFT), and the extracted features include phase, magnitude, real, and imaginary parts of FrFT coefficients. Since the number of features is very large by implementing FrFT, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) is applied for feature scoring and the best features are selected by this tool. Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to classify real and impostor samples. The results of various features extracted by FrFT are compared, and according to the obtained results, we deduced that the phase feature is stronger than other features for person authentication based on wrist vein images, and this feature achieved 100% accuracy.

model it is demonstrated through the combination of strain and piezoelectricity that increasing the InN quantum-well thickness of a GaN-InN-GaN device changes the InN material from a positive bandgap semiconductor to a topological insulator (negative bandgap). Moderate strain tuning of a four monolayer InN layer for a GaN-InN-GaN device reveals a giant (one order of magnitude) tuning of current–voltage characteristics. It is verified that piezoelectricity plays an important role in controlling electron transport through the InN layer.
Ant Thermal Tolerance: A Review of Methods, Hypotheses, and Sources of Variation
Authors: Roeder Karl A , Roeder Diane V , Bujan Jelena 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) are a conspicuous group of ectotherms whose behavior, distribution, physiology, and fitness are regulated by temperature. Consequently, interest in traits like thermal tolerance that enable ants to survive and thrive in variable climates has increased exponentially over the past few decades. Here, we synthesize the published literature on the thermal tolerance of ants. We begin our review with discussion of common metrics: critical thermal limits, lethal thermal limits, knock-down resistance, chill-coma recovery, and supercooling. In particular, we highlight the ways each thermal metric is quantified and offer a set of methodological caveats for consideration. We next describe patterns and hypotheses for ant thermal tolerance along spatial and temporal temperature gradients. Spatially, we focus on relationships with latitude, elevation, urbanization, and microclimate. Temporally, we focus on seasonal plasticity, daily variation, dominance-thermal tolerance tradeoffs, and acclimation. We further discuss other sources of variation including evolutionary history, body size, age, castes, and nutrition. Finally, we highlight several topics of interest to ant thermal biologists, ranging in scope from methods development to the impacts of climate change.
The Fusion of Ideology, Technology and Economic Power: Implications of the Emerging New United States National Security Conceptualization
Authors: Slawotsky Joel 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
The historical narrative of the national security exception in trade and investment has long been understood from the perspective of measures to defend the nation from military attack or territorial invasion. The cornerstone of the existing global governance model encourages non-discriminatory trade and vigorous cross-border investment, thus the security exception in international economic agreements was envisioned as a “last-resort” allowing a nation to override international economic obligations only if necessary and invoked in good-faith to protect essential security. However, in a world of emergent technology, with potentially devastating future effects, theorizing national security is more difficult and complex. Moreover, the two primary global powers are locked in a hegemonic struggle. The United States has in recent years aggressively resorted to national security to justify investment and trade policies against China. The foundational basis for doing so is a new conceptualization of national security constituting a fusion of interests encompassing the ideological, technological and economic. This re-conceptualization radically re-defines the understanding of national security. Taken to its logical conclusion, the new conceptualization of security risks an unfettered broadening of the exception, driving a transformative re-alignment in the global international economic architecture.
Hypophosphatemia in cancer patients

Published: April 2021

AbstractDysregulation of phosphorus homeostasis resulting in hypophosphatemia is common in cancer patients and can result in serious complications and impact outcomes. Several factors, including critical illness, nutritional status, cancer type and therapy, influence the development of hypophosphatemia. Hypophosphatemia can develop as a result of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors or as a paraneoplastic phenomenon. The clinical presentation for hypophosphatemia varies depending on the duration and severity of the hypophosphatemia and affects several organ systems. Among other serious effects, hypophosphatemia can impair tissue oxygenation and can cause hemolysis, leukocyte and platelet dysfunction, encephalopathy, seizures, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, rhabdomyolysis and coma. Multiple studies have demonstrated that hypophosphatemia is an adverse prognostic marker in inpatients with increased in-hospital stay, mortality and postoperative complications. The phosphate level is homeostatically regulated and maintained in a narrow range by three main hormones: parathyroid hormone, fibroblast growth factor 23 and 1,25-dihydroxyvitaminD3. Together, these hormones regulate how the intestine, kidneys and bones traffic phosphorus. Several hematological malignancies and cancer therapies are associated with proximal tubular dysfunction (Fanconi syndrome), resulting in phosphaturia. Caution should be taken with parenteral administration of phosphate salts, because secondary complications can develop, principally due to hypocalcemia. The general approach to hypophosphatemia should target the underlying cause. Early recognition and prevention are essential and the approach to hypophosphatemia in the cancer patient, because of the nuances and complexity, should be multidisciplinary.
The Trajectory of the Democratic Entitlement Thesis in International Legal Scholarship: A Reply to Akbar Rasulov
Authors: Roth Brad R 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
Akbar Rasulov’s provocative discussion of the ‘The Curious Case of the International Law of Democracy and the Politics of International Legal Scholarship’ makes two remarkable assertions: i) that the critics of the democratic entitlement thesis won a decisive victory in the contest to influence ‘the conventional wisdom’ within international legal scholarship; and ii) that the critiques objectively served ‘a fundamentally reactionary political agenda’. Beyond overstating both the critiques’ harshness and their impact, Rasulov is too quick to associate their methodological orthodoxy with ‘right-wing’ outcomes, neglecting to appreciate that their authors’ primary objective was to resist neo-colonialist tendencies. Whereas departures from standard source doctrines may in an earlier era have been directed towards redress of power imbalances inherited from colonialism, the ‘pro-democratic’ departures of the post-Cold War era tended to license impositions on the self-government of the poorer and weaker states. The democratic entitlement’s critics sought precisely to conserve gains that had earlier been won by sectors of the international community resistant to neo-colonialism.
Tof1p Regulates DNA Damage Responses During S Phase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Authors: Foss Eric J 
Published: April 2021

Abstract
A tof1 mutant was recovered in a screen aimed at identifying genes involved specifically in the S phase branch of the MEC1-dependent DNA damage response pathway. The screen was based on the observation that mutants missing this branch are particularly dependent on the cell cycle-wide branch and, therefore, on RAD9, for surviving DNA damage. tof1 and rad9 conferred synergistic sensitivity to MMS, UV, and HU, and the double mutant was incapable of slowing S phase in response to MMS, inducing RNR3 transcription in response to UV, and phosphorylating Rad53p in response to HU. TOF1's contribution to DNA damage response appeared to be restricted to S phase, since TOF1 did not contribute to UV-induced transcription during G1 or to the cdc13-1-induced block to anaphase in G2/M. I suggest a model in which Tof1p functions to link Mec1p with Rad53p.

AbstractBacterial persistence is a potential cause of antibiotic therapy failure. Antibiotic-tolerant persisters originate from phenotypic differentiation within a susceptible population, occurring with a frequency that can be altered by mutations. Recent studies have proven that persistence is a highly evolvable trait and, consequently, an important evolutionary strategy of bacterial populations to adapt to high-dose antibiotic therapy. Yet, the factors that govern the evolutionary dynamics of persistence are currently poorly understood. Theoretical studies predict far-reaching effects of bottlenecking on the evolutionary adaption of bacterial populations, but these effects have never been investigated in the context of persistence. Bottlenecking events are frequently encountered by infecting pathogens during host-to-host transmission and antibiotic treatment. In this study, we used a combination of experimental evolution and barcoded knockout libraries to examine how population bottlenecking affects the evolutionary dynamics of persistence. In accordance with existing hypotheses, small bottlenecks were found to restrict the adaptive potential of populations and result in more heterogeneous evolutionary outcomes. Evolutionary trajectories followed in small-bottlenecking regimes additionally suggest that the fitness landscape associated with persistence has a rugged topography, with distinct trajectories toward increased persistence that are accessible to evolving populations. Furthermore, sequencing data of evolved populations and knockout libraries after selection reveal various genes that are potentially involved in persistence, including previously known as well as novel targets. Together, our results do not only provide experimental evidence for evolutionary theories, but also contribute to a better understanding of the environmental and genetic factors that guide bacterial adaptation to antibiotic treatment.

Abstract
Complete separation of water and solute is the ultimate goal of water treatment, for maximized resource recycling. However, commercialized approaches such as evaporative crystallizers consume a large amount of electricity with a significant carbon footprint, leading to calls for alternative energy-efficient and eco-friendly strategies. Here, inspired by schooling fish, we demonstrate a collective system self-assembled by expanded polystyrene (EPS)-core/graphene oxide (GO)-shell particles, which enables autonomous, efficient and complete water-solute separation powered by sunlight. By taking advantage of surface tension, these tailored particles school together naturally and are bonded as a system to function collectively and coordinatively, to nucleate, grow and output salt crystals continuously and automatically out of even saturated brine, to complete water-solute separation. Solar-vapor conversion efficiency over 90% and salt production rate as high as 0.39 kg m–2 h–1 are achieved under 1-sun illumination for this system. It reduces the carbon footprint of ∼50 kg for treating 1-ton saturated brine compared with the commercialized approaches.

Abstract
The Dunning-Kruger premise assumes that unqualified people are unaware of their limited skills. We tested this hypothesis in the context of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. In this cross-sectional study, 2487 participants had to self-estimate their knowledge about COVID-19 in a questionnaire on the topic. Poor performers were more likely to use mass media and social networks as sources of information and had lower levels of education. The mean self-assessment (SD) was 6.88 (2.06) and was not linked to actual level of knowledge. This observation should prompt regulatory agencies and media to apply rules that limit dissemination of “infodemics” during global health crises.

AbstractAs an obligate salt marsh species, Seaside Sparrows (Ammospiza maritima) are vulnerable to numerous threats including climate change, coastal erosion, sea-level rise, and both natural and anthropogenic disasters. Of the 9 recognized subspecies, 2 are extinct and 1 is endangered. Previous genetic analyses of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and microsatellite loci showed that current taxonomy does not accurately reflect underlying genetic diversity, with possible consequences for the distribution of conservation resources. To further inform Seaside Sparrow management, we comprehensively describe genetic structure among 24 range-wide sampling locations that include all extant subspecies. We inferred population structure from several thousand single-nucleotide polymorphisms collected from 272 individuals via restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing. Principal components, pairwise FST values, and clustering approaches suggest that Seaside Sparrows on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts are distinct and consist of at least 5 genetic clusters: 1 in southern Texas, 1 ranging from Aransas County, Texas, to Mississippi; 1 in western Florida; and 2 or 3 genetic groups intermixed along a gradient on the Atlantic Coast. These genetic clusters are not consistent with current subspecies taxonomy and could be used as distinct population segments (DPSs) to inform the most efficient allocation of resources to Seaside Sparrow conservation. Our results regarding the endangered subspecies, A. m. mirabilis, from southern Florida are inconclusive due to low sample size, but indicate that it is distinct and may represent a sixth DPS. Based on our genetic results, we recommend additional song and morphometric analyses in western Florida and a closer study of the boundary between the breeding distributions of A. m. maritima and A. m. macgillivraii to ensure the proper identification of DPSs.
