A Wellbore/Formation-Coupled Heat-Transfer Model in Deepwater Drilling and Its Application in the Prediction of Hydrate-Reservoir Dissociation
Authors: Gao Yonghai , Sun Baojiang , Xu Boyue , Wu Xingru , Chen Ye , Zhao Xinxin , Chen Litao 
Published: October 2016

Summary
On the basis of the wellbore and reservoir heat-transfer process during deepwater drilling, a heat-transfer model between wellbore and formation is built up for two different conditions: without riser and with riser. Wellbore and formation temperature distributions under different drilling-fluid-injection temperatures, flow rates, circulating times, and drilling depths are simulated by use of this model. Taking the hydrate-phase equilibrium into consideration, a possible region of hydrate-formation dissociation is analyzed, and effective methods are proposed to control the hydrate dissociation. The results indicate that, during shallow formation drilling, the increase of drilling-fluid flow rate will cause the wellbore temperature to rise, but below the hydrate-dissociation temperature in the whole process; during deep-formation drilling, drilling fluid is heated, and the heat is transferred from the deeper formation to the shallower formation through fluid circulation. Thus, the hydrate-reservoir temperature increases gradually along the wellbore radial direction. Hydrates will dissociate after the hydrate equilibrium temperature is reached; this may cause wellbore collapse or methane leak from the reservoir and result in disaster. To control hydrate dissociation during deepwater drilling, attention should be paid to the period of deep-formation drilling. Sensitivity studies indicate that the risk of hydrate dissociation rises as the drilling-fluid-injection temperature, flow rate, and circulating time increase.
The Soil Remembers
Authors: Janzen H. Henry 
Published: October 2016

Core Ideas
Sustainability can only be measured over long time periods.
To evaluate sustainability, therefore, we need a way of keeping track—a memory.
Soil offers such a memory because the soil stays.
An underlying aim of soil science is to extract and describe soils' memories.
Terrestrial ecosystems worldwide face mounting stresses and upheavals, mostly from human demands and interferences. Our search for better ways of living on these lands, however, is constrained by a most vexing variable: time. The final outcomes of our management choices—well intended or not—will often fully emerge only after decades, when we are no longer there to see them. A way around this dilemma is to view a longer span of time by studying the land's own memories, notably those in the soil. Most ecosystem elements flicker and fade, much as we do, but the soil stays, … and the soil remembers. In this essay, I propose that the fundamental aim of soil science is to extract and describe the narratives embedded in soils' memories, and I ponder some ways of doing that. This guiding motive, perhaps, may offer hope not only for our science but also for our lands everywhere—on which we and those who follow us will always depend.
Auditor Information Foraging Behavior
Authors: Commerford Benjamin P. , Hatfield Richard C. , Houston Richard W. , Mullis Curtis 
Published: October 2016

ABSTRACT
In this study, we examine how information foraging by auditors affects audit evidence collection in two distinct contexts, and show how a small change to audit methodology mitigates the potentially harmful effects of foraging. Information Foraging Theory explains how, while navigating an information environment, individuals learn to acquire information through personally experiencing the costs incurred and the values obtained from information. Consistent with the theory, we find that auditors react to the immediately felt costs of information collection (e.g., time and effort) at the expense of a more global consideration of information value (i.e., auditors collect lower-quality audit evidence). However, foraging behavior is moderated by removing the personal cost to the individual auditor (identifying audit evidence for another member of the audit team to collect), further demonstrating that these personally felt costs influence auditor choices in a way that reduces the quality of information collected. We contribute to the literature by demonstrating how information foraging can influence evidence quality and, thus, audit quality, and how a slight alteration of audit methodology can mitigate this behavior.
Discussion of Integrated Information Systems, Alliance Formation, and the Risk of Information Exchange between Partners
Authors: Van den Abbeele Alexandra 
Published: October 2016

ABSTRACT
Christ and Nicolaou (2016) develop a model predicting that when firms are engaged in alliances with multiple objectives, they are more likely to use Integrated Information Systems (IIS) and more extensive formal controls to manage alliance risk. In addition, they hypothesize that higher levels of IIS are associated with lower information exchange risk and subsequently lower overall alliance risk. Finally, they argue that the relationship between IIS and information exchange risk is mediated by alliance formalization (i.e., the use of formal controls). They test the model using a survey of 116 chief financial officers from U.S. public companies with strategic alliance activity. In this discussion paper, I highlight the main contributions of Christ and Nicolaou (2016), discuss some concerns, and provide some suggestions for future studies.
How and Where Parents of Infants and Young Children Want to Receive Nutrition Information
Authors: Dexter Bria , Frank Sarah , Seguin Louise 
Published: October 2016

Purpose: To understand how and where parents of infants and young children (children ≤5 years old) prefer to receive nutrition information. Methods: A 1-page survey was developed and pilot tested at 2 community agencies. The final survey was distributed at 18 community health centres (CHCs) in Calgary and surrounding rural areas. Any parent attending a well-child visit (child ≤5 years old) was able to participate. Results: Five hundred and twenty-nine surveys were completed. The majority of respondents at every CHC identified online reading (79.2%) in their home (86.0%) as the preferred method and location to receive nutrition information. Almost all (99.4%) participants had internet access. Handouts (38.6%) were the second most popular way to receive nutrition information. In-person and online classes were only a preferred method by a small percentage of respondents, 10.6% and 8.1%, respectively. Conclusions: Appropriate, evidence-based nutrition websites should be promoted to parents with young children. Health professionals should be aware that parents likely access nutrition information online, and they need to provide an opportunity for parents to discuss what they found. Future research is needed to understand which websites parents access for online nutrition information and how they discern whether it is credible.
Evaluation of an overlapping pubic and ischiatic osteotomy for the improvement of acetabular ventroversion in dogs: an ex vivo study
Authors: Roush James , Biller David , Gervais Julie 
Published: October 2016

SummaryObjectives: To assess the potential of a new single-session surgical procedure, the overlapping pubic and ischiatic osteotomy (OPIO) for modification of bilateral hip conformation. We hypothesized that OPIO would be simple to perform with currently available surgical equipment, through a single surgical approach, with minimal potential morbidity, and that it would allow adequate simultaneous bilateral improvement of coxofemoral joint conformation in patients at risk of canine hip dysplasia.Methods: The OPIO procedure was performed in the pelves of five large breed canine cadavers. Computed tomography images of each cadaver were compared by measurement of the dorsal acetabular rim angle (DARA), acetabular angle (AA), dorso-ventral sacroiliac ratio (SR), and pubic inlet area before and after OPIO.Results: Coxofemoral joint conformation was improved after OPIO. Postoperative DARA was significantly decreased (mean: –5.09°) and AA was significantly increased (mean: 3.54°) after OPIO. The SR was not significantly different after OPIO, indicating minimal impact on the sacro-illiac joints by the procedure. Pubic inlet dimensions and area were significantly decreased after OPIO, but the overall effect on pelvic inlet area was clinically insignificant.Clinical significance: An OPIO allows some improvement of coxofemoral joint conformation in canine cadavers.
Taxonomic revision of the Afrotropical genus Megatrigon Johnson, 1898 (Diptera: Syrphidae)
Authors: Doczkal Dieter , Radenković Snežana , Lyneborg Leif , Pape Thomas 
Published: October 2016

The genus-group taxon Megatrigon Johnson, 1898, stat. nov., is revised and treated as a valid genus within the Merodontini (= Eumerini). Extensive diagnoses are given for the genus and for its three constituent species groups: argenteus group [11 spp.], nivalis group [monotypic], sexfasciatus group [3 spp.]. Five new generic combinations are proposed within Megatrigon: M. argenteus (Walker, 1852) comb. nov., M. flavimarginatus (Hull, 1964) comb. nov., M. jacobi (Hervé-Bazin, 1913) comb. nov., M. nivalis (Hull, 1964) comb. nov. and M. ochreatus (Hull, 1964) comb. nov. All species of the argenteus group are revised and nine new species are described: Megatrigon apiformis sp. nov., M. argentifrons sp. nov., M. argentimaculatus sp. nov., M. cooksoni sp. nov., M. immaculatus sp. nov., M. magnicornis sp. nov., M. natalensis sp. nov., M. sexmaculatus sp. nov., M. tabanoides sp. nov. Within the sexfasciatus group, M. jacobi (Hervé-Bazin, 1913) comb. nov. is treated as a senior synonym of Eumerus connexus Hull, 1964 syn. nov., but no further work is done at the species level due to insufficient material.
Dramaturgie du son : la matérialité de la voix et l’architecture du son / bruit dans le théâtre de Romeo Castellucci et de Robert Wilson
Authors: Ovadija Mladen , Léopold Janine 
Published: October 2016

L’émergence actuelle de la dramaturgie du son n’est pas seulement une question de technique artistique : elle découle de la reconnaissance par les avant-gardes de la matérialité du son et de la fondation d’une nouvelle esthétique qui traite le son comme constituant intrinsèque d’une nouvelle théâtralité intermédiale. Elle repose sur deux dimensions indissociables du son au théâtre : la dimension corporelle de la voix, du geste vocal et de l’incantation, et la dimension structurelle du son (concret ou abstrait) de la scène. Le théâtre de Romeo Castellucci et celui de Robert Wilson sont discutés à la lumière des méthodes d’avant-garde qui font résonner les sons à la fois dans le corps et dans l’espace. L’oralité de la performance vocale et l’auralité des sons et bruits de la scène s’y amalgament, résultant de la confluence des impulsions viscérales / érotiques et structurelles présentes dans leurs dramaturgies respectives.
L’expérience du Teatro del Suono d’Andrea Liberovici et Edoardo Sanguineti : théorie et pratique d’une nouvelle utilisation du son au théâtre
Authors: Resche Stéphane 
Published: October 2016

Cet article propose un parcours à travers les différentes productions du Teatro del Suono (1996-2006), notamment les premiers succès Rap (1996) et Sonetto (1997). Son fondateur Andrea Liberovici privilégiait une écoute approfondie de la musicalité intrinsèque d’un texte afin d’en tirer de nouvelles interprétations et de nouvelles utilisations, d’exploiter toutes les possibilités communicatives du son, de dépasser les barrières imposées à la composante acoustique du théâtre, de sortir des carcans interprétatifs, de sensibiliser le spectateur par les sens, bref, comme le disait Liberovici lui-même, de le « prendre à l’hameçon par la tranquillité monotone et connue d’un fragment déclaré de sens, puis [de] l’emporter à travers un langage musical symbolique et stratifié ».
Effect of Vibram FiveFingers Minimalist Shoes on the Abductor Hallucis Muscle
Authors: Campitelli Nicholas A. , Spencer Scott A. , Bernhard Kaitlyn , Heard Kristen , Kidon Alan 
Published: October 2016

Background:This study investigated the effect of Vibram FiveFingers Bikila minimalist shoes on intrinsic foot musculature. We hypothesized that a gradual transition into minimalist shoes will increase the thickness of the abductor hallucis muscle.Methods:Forty-one individuals were divided into four groups: control (traditional shod) (n = 9), restricted walking in Vibram FiveFingers (n = 11), running in Vibram FiveFingers (n = 10), and unlimited walking in Vibram FiveFingers (n = 11). At baseline, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks, the thickness of the abductor hallucis muscle was determined using ultrasound. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the significance of differences in muscle thickness at the three different time points.Results:The mean thickness of the abductor hallucis muscle at 24 weeks was significantly greater than that at baseline for the restricted walking (P = .005) and running (P &lt; .001) groups. In the unlimited walking group, the mean thickness of the muscle at 12 weeks was significantly greater than that at baseline (P &lt; .05) but not at 24 weeks. There were no significant differences in muscle thickness among the three time points for the control group (P = .432).Conclusions:This study demonstrated that wearing Vibram FiveFinger Bikila footwear over a controlled period of time, an unlimited amount of time, as well as transitioning runners over a 6-month period of time using the 10% philosophy for increasing mileage, significantly increases intrinsic muscle thickness of the abductor hallucis. The abductor hallucis muscle aids in support of the medial longitudinal arch, and an increase in this muscle thickness may help reduce running-related injuries thought to arise from arch weakness.
Commercial or non-commercial? Trends in funding and distributing Finnish academic journals
Authors: Lilja Johanna 
Published: October 2016

Watch the VIDEO of the presentation.This paper examines trends in funding and distributing academic journals in Finland. Scholarly societies have been major actors in the field of academic publishing since the nineteenth century. First, they funded their own journals but the system of government subsidies was created already in the middle of the nineteenth century. Hence, the societies were freed of the necessity of selling publications. Instead, publications were distributed by exchanging them with other societies and institutions. At the time, the scholarly community was often called “Republic of Letters” – the concept mirrored an ideal of free, egalitarian and collaborative world of researchers. Exchange of publications was a part of this ideal. Commercial scientific publishing began to prosper in Germany at the end of the nineteenth century. Only in the 1980s, did the trend towards commercial distribution strengthen in Finland. Bookstore Tiedekirja was founded to promote selling and marketing society publications. Societies were advised to restrict the number of exchanges and promote selling instead. The government subsidy was restricted to cover only a minor share of costs of publishing. The national service for electronic distribution of journals “Elektra” was based on the license fees paid by the research libraries. Yet, the income of sales and licenses remained modest. The subscription fees were very low. Income from Elektra was far from sufficient so that the journals had to maintain their printed versions. The international Open Access movement, which actually is not so far from the old ideal of the “Republic of Letters”, was introduced in Finland, in 2004. Its first agents were libraries and some universities. In the 2010s, it became the policy of the ministry of education and major research funders. Yet, the structures of commercial distribution created in the 1980s and 1990s proved to be an obstacle in making the scholarly journals open. Even though the money involved in publishing was insignificant in comparison with major international publishers, the societies were cautious in abandoning the sources of income they had managed to establish. Therefore, to promote Open Access publishing, a new funding model is needed. The history of academic publishing can be understood as a closing circle – from the non-commercial system of exchanges via period of commercializing to the non-commercial open world. This vision supports the funding system where journals or articles are funded collectively, e.g. via a consortium of institutions which need the domestic journals as a publication forum. Another way to look at history is to see varying trends, which leads one to predict an era of commercial interests. In the era of open publishing, the commercial vision probably manifests in funding by article processing charges.
Kotilava – Finnish academic journals towards immediate Open Access
Authors: Koikkalainen Riitta 
Published: October 2016

In their joint effort, Kotilava, The Federation of Finnish Learned Societies and The National Library of Finland support Finnish scholarly journals in their transition to immediate Open Access. This project, being a part of the Open Science and Research Initiative in Finland (ATT), proceeds via two subprojects. First, the platform for editing and publishing OA journals are improved. Second, a new consortium based funding model for Finnish OA journals will be created.Kotilava is closely related to another ATT initiative run by The National Library of Finland, TAJUA, which aims to further improve OA repository services and guidance on best practices that the National Library already provides. It also develops tools for creating metadata for research datasets. This poster focuses on the funding model of Kotilava.Most Finnish academic journals are published in print by small scholarly societies. They have limited resources to carry out all the tasks needed in turning to immediate OA. Yet, this transformation has to happen. Researchers need to see their contribution distributed as soon and as widely as possible; also the funders require the results of the research they finance to be published in OA. Currently, the most common way of funding OA journals are Article Processing Charges (APCs). The difficulties of this model are well known, two of the major ones being that an APC based model is not appropriate for small language areas like Finland nor for all fields of research. Thus, alternative funding models are discussed worldwide. Especially consortium based systems, such as the Open Library of Humanities’ and Knowledge Unlatched’s models, have been of interest.So far the income of Finnish journals has consisted of sales, subventions from societies, government subsidies, and, occasionally, from subsidies by research institutions. Publishing in immediate OA decreases the income from these conventional sources of funding. Clearly, the transformation to immediate OA cannot be financed without substitutive funding.Domestic journals provide the definitive forum to publish research on national culture, history and society. It is in the best interest of all the actors in the field from research organizations and funders to scholarly publishers to guarantee the existence of these publishing channels also in the future.The aims of Kotilava are:determining the criteria the journals should meet (e.g. technical and bibliographical requirements);calculating the income needed to fund immediate OA;outlining the criteria how an article based fee is determined in different types of journals;negotiating with the possible funders and the journals; andproposing a system for collecting the funds to the consortia and for distributing it to the journals with minimum transaction costs.Tasks 1, 2, and 3 are integrated with the part of Kotilava which aids the journals to meet the technical criteria of OA publishing. During summer 2016, a group of 12 journals has begun to examine the possibilities of creating the new funding model in practice.
Climate-related environmental stress in intertidal grazers: scaling-up biochemical responses to assemblage-level processes

Published: October 2016

BackgroundOrganisms are facing increasing levels of environmental stress under climate change that may severely affect the functioning of biological systems at different levels of organization. Growing evidence suggests that reduction in body size is a universal response of organisms to global warming. However, a clear understanding of whether extreme climate events will impose selection directly on phenotypic plastic responses and how these responses affect ecological interactions has remained elusive.MethodsWe experimentally investigated the effects of extreme desiccation events on antioxidant defense mechanisms of a rocky intertidal gastropod (Patella ulyssiponensis), and evaluated how these effects scaled-up at the population and assemblage levels.ResultsWith increasing levels of desiccation stress, limpets showed significant lower levels of total glutathione, tended to grow less and had reduced per capita interaction strength on their resources.DiscussionResults suggested that phenotypic plasticity (i.e., reduction in adults’ body size) allowed buffering biochemical responses to stress to scale-up at the assemblage level. Unveiling the linkages among different levels of biological organization is key to develop indicators that can anticipate large-scale ecological impacts of climate change.
Predictions of potential geographical distribution and quality ofSchisandra sphenantheraunder climate change

Published: October 2016

Climate change will significantly affect plant distribution as well as the quality of medicinal plants. Although numerous studies have analyzed the effect of climate change on future habitats of plants through species distribution models (SDMs), few of them have incorporated the change of effective content of medicinal plants.Schisandra sphenantheraRehd. et Wils. is an endangered traditional Chinese medical plant which is mainly located in the Qinling Mountains. Combining fuzzy theory and a maximum entropy model, we obtained current spatial distribution of quality assessment forS. spenanthera. Moreover, the future quality and distribution ofS. spenantherawere also projected for the periods 2020s, 2050s and 2080s under three different climate change scenarios (SRES-A1B, SRES-A2 and SRES-B1 emission scenarios) described in the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) of IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). The results showed that the moderately suitable habitat ofS. sphenantheraunder all climate change scenarios remained relatively stable in the study area. The highly suitable habitat ofS. sphenantherawould gradually decrease in the future and a higher decline rate of the highly suitable habitat area would occur under climate change scenarios SRES-A1B and SRES-A2. The result suggested that in the study area, there would be no more highly suitable habitat areas forS. sphenantherawhen the annual mean temperature exceeds 20 °C or its annual precipitation exceeds 1,200 mm. Our results will be influential in the future ecological conservation and management ofS. sphenantheraand can be taken as a reference for habitat suitability assessment research for other medicinal plants.
