Authors: Dulay Maria T. , Huerta-Aguilar Carlos Alberto , Chamberlayne Christian F. , Zare Richard N. , Davidse Adriaan , Vukovic Sinisa 
Published: July 2021

AbstractMist is generated by ultrasonic cavitation of water (Fisher Biograde, pH 5.5–6.5) at room temperature (20–25 °C) in open air with nearly constant temperature (22–25 °C) but varying relative humidity (RH; 24–52%) over the course of many months. Water droplets in the mist are initially about 7 μm in diameter at about 50% RH. They are collected, and the concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is measured using commercial peroxide test strips and by bromothymol blue oxidation. The quantification method is based on the Fenton chemistry of dye degradation to determine the oxidation capacity of water samples that have been treated by ultrasonication. It is found that the hydrogen peroxide concentration varies nearly linearly with RH over the range studied, reaching a low of 2 parts per million (ppm) at 24% RH and a high of 6 ppm at 52% RH. Some possible public health implications concerning the transmission of respiratory viral infections are suggested for this threefold change in H2O2 concentration with RH.
Risk, Reward, and Scientific Ontology: Reply to Bryant, Psillos, and Slater
Authors: Chakravartty Anjan 
Published: July 2021

ABSTRACTScientific Ontology: Integrating Naturalized Metaphysics and Voluntarist Epistemology contends that ontological commitments associated with scientific inquiry are infused with philosophical commitments. Interpretations of scientific ontology involve (what I call) metaphysical inferences, and furthermore, there are different ways of making these inferences, on the basis of different but nonetheless rational epistemic stances. If correct, this problematizes any neat distinction between naturalized and other metaphysics, and dissolves any presumption of there being a uniquely correct answer to ontological questions connected to the sciences. In this paper, I consider some weighty challenges to these contentions by Amanda Bryant, Stathis Psillos, and Matthew Slater.

Published: July 2021

AbstractThe complete larval development of the spider crabMaguimithrax spinosissimus(Lamarck, 1818) is re-described and illustrated in detail from laboratory-reared material. The development consisted of the typical pattern reported for the Majoidea, two zoeal stages and one megalopa. The complete larval development from hatching to first crab lasted 5–6 days at temperatures that ranged between 24–28 °C. Both zoeal stages ofM. spinosissimusexhibited moderate reduction in the number of setae in the maxilla and maxillipeds, from the first to the second zoeal stage, when compared with other closely related species.Maguimithrax spinosissimuscan be easily distinguished from other species belonging to the closely related genusMithraxby the (i) setation of the endopod of the maxillule, maxilla and second maxilliped in both zoeal stages; (ii) setation of the scaphognathite of the maxilla in the first zoeal stage; (iii) setation of the basis of maxilliped I in the second zoeal stage and megalopa; (iv) morphology of the antennule and antenna in the second zoeal stage; and (v) setation of the antennule, coxal endite of maxilla, and exopod of second maxilliped in the megalopa. All these characters support the recent generic status ofMaguimithraxwithin the Mithracidae. Additional morphological details, not available previously, are provided. This study will provide support for conservation strategies in this species.
Socialization processes within adolescents’ relationships with parents and peers predicting couples’ intimate partner violence in adulthood: A social learning perspective
Authors: Ha Thao , Van Ryzin Mark J. , Elam Kit K. 
Published: July 2021

AbstractPrevious studies have established that individual characteristics such as violent behavior, substance use, and high-risk sexual behavior, as well as negative relationships with parents and friends, are all risk factors for intimate partner violence (IPV). In this longitudinal prospective study, we investigated whether violent behavior, substance use, and high-risk sexual behavior in early adulthood (ages 22–23 years) mediated the link between family conflict and coercive relationship talk with friends in adolescence (ages 16–17 years) and dyadic IPV in adulthood (ages 28–30 years). A total of 998 individuals participated in multimethod assessments, including observations of interactions with parents and friends. Data from multiple reporters were used for variables of interest including court records, parental and self-reports of violence, self-reports of high-sexual-risk behaviors and substance use, and self- and romantic partner-reports of IPV. Longitudinal mediation analyses showed that violent behavior during early adulthood mediated the link between coercive relationship talk with friends in adolescence and dyadic IPV in adulthood. No other mediation paths were found and there was no evidence of gender differences. Results are discussed with attention to the interpersonal socialization processes by which IPV emerges relative to individual risk factors.
Towards a contemporary approach for understanding personality pathology in developmental context: An integrative model
Authors: Altschuler Melody R. , Krueger Robert F. 
Published: July 2021

AbstractTraditional categorical approaches to classifying personality disorders are limited in important ways, leading to a shift in the field to dimensional approaches to conceptualizing personality pathology. Different areas of psychology – personality, developmental, and psychopathology – can be leveraged to understand personality pathology by examining its structure, development, and underlying mechanisms. However, an integrative model that encompasses these distinct lines of inquiry has not yet been proposed. In order to address this gap, we review the latest evidence for dimensional classification of personality disorders based on structural models of maladaptive personality traits, provide an overview of developmental theories of pathological personality, and summarize the Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) initiative, which seeks to understand underlying mechanisms of psychopathology. We conclude by proposing an integrative model of personality pathology development that aims to elucidate the developmental pathways of personality pathology and its underlying mechanisms.
Relationship of sperm motility with clinical outcome of percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration–intracytoplasmic sperm injection in infertile males with congenital domestic absence of vas deferens: a retrospective study

Published: July 2021

SummaryCongenital domestic absence of vas deferens (CBAVD) is a common factor in male infertility, and percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA) combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a primary clinical treatment, but the effect of the sperm obtained on pregnancy outcome remains to be explored. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between sperm motility with clinical outcome of PESA–ICSI in infertile males with CBAVD. A cohort of 110 couples was enrolled. In total, 76 infertile males were included in the high motility group, while the remaining 34 males were placed in the low motility group. Clinical pregnancy, embryo implantation rate and live birth rate were included as the primary outcome. After all follow-ups, we found that the high motility group achieved higher normal fertilization rates, cleavage rates, transplantable embryo rates and high-quality embryo rates than those in low motility group (normal fertilization rate, 78.2 ± 11.7% vs. 70.5 ± 10.2%,P= 0.003; cleavage rate, 97.1 ± 2.9% vs. 92.3 ± 3.0%,P= 0.000; transplantable embryo rate, 66.8 ± 14.9% vs. 58.6 ± 12.6%,P= 0.009 and high-quality embryo rate, 49.9 ± 10.5% vs. 40.5 ± 11.2%,P= 0.000). Additionally, compared with the low motility group, the clinical pregnancy rates, embryo implantation rates, and live birth rates in the high motility group were significantly increased (pregnancy rate, 61.8% vs. 26.5%,P= 0.009; embryo implantation rate, 36.5% vs. 18.0%,P= 0.044; live birth rate, 55.3% vs. 17.6%,P= 0.000). We concluded that the motility of sperm obtained by PESA affected the clinical outcome of ICSI in infertile males with CBAVD.

AbstractIntroduction:The pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), or coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has affected many people in the world and has impacted the physical, social, and mental health of the world population. One of these psychological consequences is intimate partner violence affecting sexual health.Methods:This study was performed as a systematic review on the effect of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic on sexual function and domestic violence in the world. Accordingly, all English-language studies conducted from the beginning of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic to the end of 2020 were extracted by searching in the Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed (including Medline), Cochrane Library, and Science Direct databases and then reviewed. The quality of the articles was assessed using the STROBE checklist.Results:A total of 11 studies were included in the systematic review. Accordingly, domestic violence during the exposure to COVID-19 had increased. Moreover, the mean scores of sexual function and its components had reduced at the time of exposure to the pandemic compared to before.Conclusion:Given the potential long-term effects of the coronavirus crisis and the large population being affected by this disease, strategies to promote sexual health and fertility of families to prevent or further reduce violence and sexual functions should be chosen.
Differential germination response of Navua sedge (Cyperus aromaticus) populations to environmental factors
Authors: Chauhan Bhagirath S. 
Published: July 2021

AbstractNavua sedge [Cyperus aromaticus (Ridl.) Mattf. & Kuek.], is a hard to control C4 perennial weed species in tropical regions of Australia. Knowledge of its seed biology could help to develop integrated weed management programs for this species. This study was conducted under laboratory and screenhouse conditions to evaluate the effect of alternating day/night temperatures, light, pretreatment high temperatures, burial depth, and flooding depth on the germination and emergence of two populations (Ingham and Tablelands) of C. aromaticus. Both populations germinated at temperatures ranging from 20/10 to 35/25 C; however, the Ingham population germination (76%) was greater than the Tablelands population (42%) at the highest temperature regime (35/25 C). None of the populations germinated at 15/5 C. Darkness completely inhibited germination in both populations, suggesting that the seeds are positively photoblastic. Seeds (dry and wet) of both populations germinated after exposure to pretreatment temperatures of up to 100 C for 5 min. After pretreatment at 150 C, only the Ingham population germinated, and germination was greater for dry seeds (62%) than for wet seeds (1%). Neither population germinated after exposure to 200 C. For both populations, maximum germination was observed for seeds at 0 cm; a burial depth of 0.5 cm completely inhibited emergence of the Tablelands population, and a burial depth of 2.0 cm completely inhibited germination of the Ingham population. A flooding depth of 10 cm greatly reduced emergence in both populations compared with 0 cm (62% and 78%) but 12% to 14% of seedlings still emerged, suggesting the need to integrate flooding with other management tools. The results also suggest that the Ingham population may have a greater potential to spread into new areas or become more invasive than the Tablelands population. Knowledge gained from this study can be used to manage C. aromaticus by fire/burning, tillage, and flooding.
Aftershock Triggering and Spatial Aftershock Zones in Fluid‐Driven Settings: Discriminating Induced Seismicity From Natural Swarms
Authors: Karimi Kamran , Davidsen Jörn 
Published: July 2021

AbstractAftershock cascades play an important role in forecasting seismicity in natural and human‐made situations. While their behavior including the spatial aftershock zone has been the focus of many studies in tectonic settings, this is not the case when fluid flows are involved. Using high‐quality seismic catalogs, we probe aftershocks dynamics in five settings influenced by fluids: (a) induced seismicity in Oklahoma and Kansas, (b) natural swarms in California and Nevada, and (c) suspected swarms in the Yuha Desert (California). All settings exhibit significant aftershock behavior highlighting the importance of event‐event triggering processes. The spatial aftershock zones scale with mainshock magnitude as expected based on the rupture length. While (a) and (b) show a rapid decay beyond their rupture length, (c) exhibits long‐range behavior suggesting that fluid migration might not be the dominant mechanism. We also find that the scaling of aftershock productivity with mainshock magnitude together with the Gutenberg‐Richter ‐value might allow to distinguish between natural swarms and induced seismicity.

Published: July 2021

AbstractThe afternoon auroral emissions are investigated in the equinoxes for geomagnetically quiet conditions (Kp = 1) using auroral images from ultraviolet imager (UVI) aboard the Polar satellite. They are compared with solar illumination effects (the solar zenith angle [SZA] and the consequent ionospheric conductivity) and the dipole tilt angle, as well as the observational region 1 upward field‐aligned currents (FACs) from AMPERE data. The averaged afternoon auroral emissions have pronounced universal time (UT) variations with valley (2.8 photons/cm2/s) at around 01:00–03:00 UT and peak (4.7 photons/cm2/s) at around 17:00–19:00 UT. They generally vary with the solar illumination, the dipole tilt angle and the observed region 1 upward FACs as a function of UT. The afternoon auroral intensity is anticorrelated with the SZA and positively proportional to the solar EUV‐produced Pedersen conductivity, region 1 upward FACs and dipole tilt angle. Additionally, they depend weakly on solar flux under geomagnetically quiet conditions. These results suggest that in the afternoon auroral region, the peak auroral emissions are closely associated with the peak conductivity and the maximum upward FACs. Other mechanisms, such as the dipole tilt angle, may also contribute. Further comparison between the northern afternoon aurora and the FACs in the two conjugate hemispheres suggests little contributions on the auroral UT variations from the interhemispheric FACs in the equinoxes.
Slip Rate and Paleoseismology of the Bolokenu‐Aqikekuduk (Dzhungarian) Right‐Lateral Strike‐Slip Fault in the Northern Tian Shan, NW China

Published: July 2021

AbstractThe ∼1,000 km‐long Bolokenu‐Aqikekuduk fault (Dzhungarian fault, BAF) is one of the major right‐lateral strike‐slip faults that cut across the Tian Shan Range. Although the BAF plays an important role in accommodating crustal shorting of the Tian Shan and cuts through densely populated cities, little is known about its late Quaternary tectonic activity or earthquake history. Here we quantify the late Quaternary dextral strike‐slip rate of the BAF along the Jinghe segment based on interpretation of high‐resolution remote sensing images and structure‐from‐motion (SfM)‐derived DEMs, field observations and the abandonment ages of displaced alluvial fans, which were constrained by optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and cosmogenic 10Be depth profile dating methods. Using the offset of fan risers and gullies incised into the fan surfaces, we yielded a right‐lateral strike‐slip rate of 3.2 + 1.4/−1.1 mm/a. Compared with the entire crustal shortening rates across the Tian Shan, the BAF accommodates ∼23% of the N‐S crustal shortening rate. Additionally, a paleoseismic trench reveals four events since the late Pleistocene with an average recurrence time of ∼4–6 ka. The last event occurred after ∼6.6 ka, which is slightly larger than the average recurrence time, suggesting that the BAF represents a potential high seismic risk for the densely populated area nearby.
Upper Mantle Hydration Indicated by Decreased Shear Velocity Near the Southern Mariana Trench From Rayleigh Wave Tomography

Published: July 2021

AbstractReduction of seismic velocities has been employed to study the hydration of incoming plates and forearc mantle in recent years. However, few constraints have been obtained in the Southern Mariana Trench. We use an ocean bottom seismograph (OBS) deployment to conduct Rayleigh wave tomographic studies to derive the SV‐wave velocity structure near the Southern Mariana Trench. Measured group and phase velocities as a function of period are inverted to determine the SV‐wave velocity using a Bayesian Monte Carlo algorithm. The incoming Pacific Plate is characterized by low velocities (3.6–4.1 km/s) within the upper ∼25 km of the mantle near the trench, indicating extensive mantle hydration of the incoming plate in southern Mariana. The velocity reduction in the forearc mantle is not as large as in central Mariana, most likely indicating a lower forearc serpentinization in this region, which is consistent with the absence of serpentinite mud volcanoes.

AbstractWe use the Martian surface temperature response to Phobos transits observed next to the InSight lander in Elysium Planitia to constrain the thermal properties of the uppermost layer of regolith. Modeled transit lightcurves validated by solar panel current measurements are used to modify the boundary conditions of a 1D heat conduction model. We test several model parameter sets, varying the thickness and thermal conductivity of the top layer to explore the range of parameters that match the observed temperature response within its uncertainty both during the eclipse as well as the full diurnal cycle. The measurements indicate a thermal inertia (TI) of in the uppermost layer of 0.2–4 mm, significantly smaller than the TI of derived from the diurnal temperature curve. This could be explained by larger particles, higher density, or some or slightly higher amount of cementation in the lower layers.
Impact of High Temporal Resolution FY‐4A Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder (GIIRS) Radiance Measurements on Typhoon Forecasts: Maria (2018) Case With GRAPES Global 4D‐Var Assimilation System

Published: July 2021

AbstractTargeted observations for Typhoon Maria (2018) using the Geostationary Interferometric Infrared Sounder (GIIRS) at a temporal resolution of 15 min provide unprecedented information for impact studies of high‐temporal‐resolution from geostationary hyperspectral IR sounders. This study investigates the impacts of different temporal resolutions for GIIRS assimilation on Maria analyses and forecasts. Results reveal that assimilating higher resolution data captures more detailed temporal and spatial structures and stronger warm anomalies. Additionally, the track forecast for Maria from assimilating higher temporal resolution GIIRS radiances is better than those from assimilating radiances with lower temporal resolution, and both are better than the control experiment. The accuracy of the different temporal resolutions GIIRS experiments (from 3 h to 15 min) is improved (from 18% to 43%), and the intensity forecast errors are also reduced (from 12% to 18%). Meanwhile, high‐temporal GIIRS assimilation also improves the coastal precipitation forecasts during typhoon landfall.
Resolving the Paleogeographic Puzzle of the Lhasa Terrane in Southern Tibet

Published: July 2021

AbstractThe widespread Tibetan Permo‐Carboniferous glaciogenic diamictites (PCGDs) are conventionally thought to be sourced from Indian Gondwana during glacier transport and deglaciation. However, the Lhasa PCGDs differ in detrital zircon U‐Pb age spectra and εHf(t) values from those in Southern Qiangtang and Tethyan Himalaya. The similarities in εHf(t) values for similar‐age detrital zircons, the development of glacier transport pathways, and the large volumes of the Tibetan PCGDs indicate an Australian source for the Lhasa PCDGs, and an Indian source for the Southern Qiangtang and Tethyan Himalayan PCDGs. We conclude that the Southern Qiangtang and Tethyan Himalayan are paleographically linked to northern India, whereas Lhasa is positioned adjacent to NW Australia during the Paleozoic. Magmatic and metamorphic records further indicate that eastern Lhasa (E90°–E95°) represents the outboard extension of events recorded in northern Central Australia, whereas western Lhasa (E80°–E90°) was located outboard of the West Australian Craton.
