Friends or strangers? It all depends on context: A replication and extension of Beckman, Haunschild, and Phillips (2004)
Authors: Howard Michael D. , Withers Michael C. , Carnes Christina Matz , Hillman Amy J. 
Published: August 2016

Research summary: The formation of interorganizational ties is a consequential phenomenon examined in strategic management research. Beckman, Haunschild, and Phillips (2004) is one of the first studies to comprehensively consider interorganizational network change by exploring factors that affect both alliance and board interlock formation. They find that firm‐specific uncertainty relates to broadening actions, whereas market‐level uncertainty causes firms to reinforce current structures. Our replication considers whether these relationships operate similarly in a differing temporal context. Building from the framework of the original study, we suggest our findings offer intriguing new empirical evidence highlighting the importance of time as a boundary condition in understanding embedded firm actions.Managerial summary: The development of interorganizational relationships, such as alliances and ties between boards of directors, has an important impact on innovation, strategic actions, and firm performance. This study examines whether the dynamics of interorganizational relationship formation remain consistent over time. We replicate earlier work by Beckman and colleagues (2004), but with an expanded data set covering more than 20 years. Over this broader time horizon, we find a shift in behavior, with companies facing firm‐specific uncertainty seeking to reinforce their current relationships and companies facing industry‐wide uncertainty seeking to diversify their risk by expanding their network. Our results demonstrate the importance of replication studies in research and contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the complexity surrounding interorganizational relationships.

Historical developments of models for estimating evaporation using standard meteorological data

Published: August 2016

Evaporation plays a key role in the hydrology of a catchment. World‐wide actual terrestrial evaporation is approximately two third of terrestrial precipitation. Evaporation is the focus of this study in which we describe the historical developments of models for estimating evaporation from standard meteorological data. Although Aristotle and Descartes made early contributions to understanding evaporation, Perrault is credited with having made the first experimental measurement of evaporation in about 1674 though in fact what he measured was sublimation by recording the loss of weight of a block of ice through time. In 1686, Halley carried out the first direct measurement of the evaporation of liquid water. Following a detailed set of experiments, Dalton in 1802 published an essay describing the relationship between evaporation, vapor pressure deficit, and wind speed which is the forerunner of the mass‐transfer equation to estimate open‐water evaporation. In 1921, Cummings proposed an approximate energy balance equation which in 1948 Penman combined with a mass‐transfer equation based on Dalton's work to develop the Penman equation. A key input was the Bowen ratio published in 1926. Following Penman, the next major development was by Monteith in 1965. He modified Penman's equation for a single leaf to deal with a canopy which led to the Penman–Monteith model and is the basis of the FAO56 Reference Crop model. Priestley and Taylor introduced their model in 1972, which is based on the energy term in Penman's equation, and underpins other models. The application of the Complementary Relationship to estimating regional evaporation is credited separately to Brutsaert and Stricker and to Morton. Budyko offered two important contributions. First, he developed a potential evaporation equation in which the evaporating surface temperature was estimated by iteration, whereas Penman approximated a value from the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. Budyko's second contribution is a simple relationship to estimate runoff and, in turn, mean actual evaporation. WIREs Water 2016, 3:788–818. doi: 10.1002/wat2.1172This article is categorized under:

AbstractBlade condition monitoring systems with fiber‐optic sensors attract much attention because they are resistant to lightning strikes, a major issue with increasing blade lengths. However, fiber‐optic sensor systems are more complex and more expensive than their electronic counterparts. We describe a new blade condition monitoring system, which combines the lightning safety of optical fibers with the reliability and cost‐effectiveness of electronic sensors. The optical fibers transport data from the blades to the hub, and in addition, they provide the electrical power for operating the sensor units in the blades. To achieve full protection against lightning‐induced electromagnetic fields, an appropriate shielding of the sensor units is required. We present results on the reliability of a newly developed prototype based on optically powered sensors. In a field trial, the unit monitored successfully the blade vibrations of a 1.5 MW wind turbine for a period of 23 months. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AbstractFive mono‐nuclear silver(I) complexes with the ligand 2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline, namely [Ag(DPEphos)(dmp)]BF4 (1), [Ag(DPEphos)(dmp)]CF3SO3 (2), [Ag(DPEphos)(dmp)]ClO4 (3), [Ag(DPEphos)(dmp)]NO3 (4), and [Ag(dppb)(dmp)]NO3·CH3OH (5) {DPEphos = bis[2‐(diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl]ether, dppb = 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphanyl)benzene, dmp = 2,9‐dimethyl‐1,10‐phenanthroline} were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, IR, 1H NMR, 31P NMR and fluorescence spectroscopy. Their terahertz (THz) time‐domain spectra were also studied. In these complexes the silver(I), which is coordinated by two kinds of chelating ligands, adopts four‐coordinate modes to generate mono‐nuclear structures. In complexes 1, 3–5, offset π···π weak interactions exist between the neighboring benzene rings. In the 31P NMR spectra, there exist splitting signals (dd), which can be attributed to the coupling of the 107,109Ag–31P. All the emission peaks of these complexes are attributed to ligand‐centered excited states.
Divalent Metal 2,5‐Thiophenedicarboxylate Coordination Polymers with the Conformationally Flexible Bis(4‐pyridyl­formyl)homopiperazine Ligand
Authors: Sample Alexander D. , LaDuca Robert L. 
Published: August 2016

AbstractDivalent metal coordination polymers containing the rigid 2,5‐thiophenedicarboxylate (tdc) ligand and the conformationally flexible dipyridylamide ligand bis(4‐pyridylformyl)homopiperazine (bpfh) show different layer topologies and chirality. As determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, {[Cd(tdc)(bpfh)(H2O)]·3H2O}n (1) shows a twofold parallel interpenetrated centrosymmetric (4,4) layered grid structure. {[Zn(tdc)(bpfh)]·H2O}n (2) exhibits a similar system of twofold interpenetrated (4,4) grid‐like layers, but in contrast to 1, it crystallizes in an acentric space group. {[Ni2(tdc)2(bpfh)2(H2O)]·2H2O}n (3) possesses {Ni2(μ‐H2O)(OCO)2} dimeric units connected into a doubled layer motif by the full span of the tdc and bpfh ligands. Weak antiferromagnetic coupling is observed within the dimeric units in 3 [g = 2.172(6) and J = –0.79(1) cm–1]. Compounds 1 and 2 undergo blue‐violet fluorescence upon ultraviolet irradiation; the cadmium derivative 1 shows potential as a sensor for the solution‐phase detection of nitrobenzene although coordination polymer exfoliation likely occurs. Thermal decomposition behavior of the three new phases is also discussed.
Alpha‐Lipoic Acid Alleviates Acute Inflammation and Promotes Lipid Mobilization During the Inflammatory Response in White Adipose Tissue of Mice

Published: August 2016

AbstractRecently, white adipose tissue has been shown to exhibit immunological activity, and may play an important role in host defense and protection against bacterial infection. Αlpha‐lipoic acid (α‐LA) has been demonstrated to function as an anti‐inflammatory and anti‐oxidant agent. However, its influence on the inflammatory response and metabolic changes in white adipose tissue remains unknown. We used male C57BL/6 mice as models to study the effect of α‐LA on the inflammatory response and metabolic changes in white adipose tissue after stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The non‐esterified fatty acid content was measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer. The expression of inflammation‐, lipid‐ and energy metabolism‐related genes and proteins was determined by quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction and western blotting. The results indicated that α‐LA significantly decreased the epididymis fat weight index and the non‐esterified fatty acid content in plasma compared with the control group. LPS significantly increased the expression of inflammation genes and α‐LA reduced their expression. The LPS‐induced expression of nuclear factor‐κB protein was decreased by α‐LA. Regarding lipid metabolism, α‐LA significantly counteracted the inhibitory effects of LPS on the expression of hormone‐sensitive lipase gene and protein. α‐LA evidently increased the gene expression of fatty acid transport protein 1 and cluster of differentiation 36. Regarding energy metabolism, α‐LA significantly increased the expression of most of mitochondrial DNA‐encoded genes compared with the control and LPS group. Accordingly, α‐LA can alleviate acute inflammatory response and this action may be related with the promotion of lipid mobilization in white adipose tissue.
Premigration School Quality, Time Spent in the United States, and the Math Achievement of Immigrant High School Students

Abstract
Using a nationally representative sample of 1,189 immigrant youth in American high schools, we examine whether the quality of education in their country of origin is related to post-migration math achievement in the 9th grade. To measure the quality of their education in the country of origin, we use country-specific average test scores from two international assessments: the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS). We find that the average PISA or TIMSS scores for immigrant youth’s country of origin are positively associated with their performance on the 9th grade post-migration math assessment. We also find that each year spent in the United States is positively associated with performance on the 9th grade post-migration math assessment, but this effect is strongest for immigrants from countries with low PISA/TIMSS scores.
Faunal turnover in the Azraq Basin, eastern Jordan 28,000 to 9000 cal yr BP, signalling climate change and human impact

Published: August 2016

AbstractRecent zooarchaeological analyses of game exploitation in the Epipalaeolithic of the Southern Levant identify a decline in large game in the Natufian, with corresponding increase in small prey, interpreted as hunting pressure driven by population expansion. To date, studies focus on the Mediterranean zone. This paper adopts similar approaches to examine Epipalaeolithic to Neolithic faunal data from 16 sites in the steppic Jordanian Azraq Basin. Results here reveal very different trends. Large game, mainly equids, fluctuate throughout the Epipalaeolithic, due to climatic conditions and available water/vegetation. Cattle thrive in the Azraq oasis, showing no decline in the Late Epipalaeolithic. Gazelle exploitation is predominant and sustainable throughout the Epipalaeolithic, even at Kharaneh IV and Wadi Jilat 6 ‘megasites’. However, PPNB assemblages from the limestone steppe show intensive game exploitation resulting from longer-stay settlement. The focused gazelle-hunting camp at Dhuweila in the basalt desert also shows pressure from indiscriminate culling impacting herd demography, interpreted as providing meat for onwards exchange. Human impacts on steppe fauna appear both local and in many cases short-term, unlike the large-game suppression reported from west of the Rift Valley. Resource pressures and game over-kill, whether population-driven or otherwise, are not currently apparent east of the Jordan River.
Variation on cranidial shape ofParabolinella argentinensisKobayashi (Trilobita, Olenidae) from the Tremadocian of northwestern Argentina: taxonomic implications
Authors: Monti Daniela S. , Benítez María del Huerto , Ramirez Mariano A. 
Published: August 2016

AbstractThe late Cambrian-Early Ordovician sequences of the Cordillera Oriental in northwestern Argentina are extensive and highly fossiliferous. The olenid trilobiteParabolinella argentinensisKobayashi sensu Harrington and Leanza, 1957 was reported from a great number of Tremadocian localities and includes a wide range of morphologies. Based on specimens collected from the type locality (Purmamarca, Jujuy) and the quebrada Moya (Huacalera, Jujuy), as well as on material of the Harrington and Leanza collections in the University of Buenos Aires, classic morphometry and geometric morphometry methods were used to evaluate the variability in the cranidium ofP.argentinensis. The results obtained from the two methodologies are similar. Both analyses allowed the review of the diagnosis ofP.argentinensis, and the distinction of two new morphologies:Parabolinella clarisaen. sp. andParabolinella pompadourisn. sp. The results show how morphogeometrics distinguishes more clearly the three morphotypes and provides graphical representations of the differences between those groups and how from the representations plus the correlation between classical variables and principal components, new diagnostic characters that distinguish the three morphospecies, can be identified.
FREE AMALGAMATION AND AUTOMORPHISM GROUPS
Authors: BAUDISCH ANDREAS 
Published: August 2016

AbstractWe show that the class of graded c-nilpotent Lie algebras over a fixed field K is closed under free amalgamation. In [1] this result was applied, but its proof was incorrect. In case of a finite field K we obtain a Fraïssé limit of all finite graded c-nilpotent Lie algebras over K. This gives an example for the following more general considerations. The existence of free amalgamation for the age of a Fraïssé limit implies the universality of its automorphism group for all automorphism groups of substructures of that Fraïssé limit. We use [6] and [5].
ContestingClementia: the Rhetoric ofSeveritasin Tiberian Rome before and after the Trial of Clutorius Priscus
Authors: Cowan Eleanor 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACTThis article examines a discussion about punishment which took place in Tiberian Rome. Shouldclementiaorseveritasinform the decisions of the judges and what was the proper relationship between the authority of the senate and theclementiaof the princeps? My argument has five parts. I begin (I) by examiningclementiaandseveritasin the work of Velleius Paterculus. I next (II) examine Velleius’ presentation of Tiberius as a figure who adjudicates punishment in his community. I then (III and IV) argue that Velleius’ ideas were the product of and sought to contribute to controversy about the ownership and use ofclementiawhich can be tracked though Tiberius’ principate. Finally (V), I suggest that Tacitus made use of the rhetoric ofclementiaandseveritascurrent in Tiberian Rome and that it influenced his reading ofsaevitiaunder the principate.
Investigation of ion characteristics in CO2laser irradiating preformed tin-droplet plasma
Authors: Chen Z. , Wang X. , Zuo D. , Wang J. 
Published: August 2016

AbstractComparative study of CO2laser-produced tin-droplet plasma with and without pre-pulse laser has been presented. A pre-pulse laser and the CO2laser was combined and focused to tin-droplet with a diameter of 180 µm. The emitted Sn ions were detected by several Faraday cups to obtain angular distribution of ions in the laser-produced tin-droplet plasma. The influence of pre-pulse laser energy and delay time between pumping laser and pre-pulse laser on the ion characteristics was investigated. It is illustrated that ion average kinetic energy from CO2laser-produced plasma (LPP) can be reduced when the tin-droplet target has been replaced by the preformed Sn plasma. The obtained optimal delay time with the lowest ion average kinetic energy is about hundreds of nanoseconds. The ion time-of-flight spectra show a twin peak structure in laser-irradiating preformed Sn plasma. And a superimposed Maxwell–Boltzmann (MB) distribution is proposed to describe this twin peak ion time-of-flight spectra. The fitting results quite agree with the raw ion time-of-flight spectra in current experiment. Then, the fitted plasma temperatures and mass-center velocities with various delay times in laser-irradiating preformed plasma are obtained, and the fitted plasma temperatures can be comparable with ion average kinetic energy in double-pulse LPP, which justified the rationality using this superimposed MB distribution.
Delirium prior to dementia as a clinical phenotype of Lewy body disease: an autopsied case report
Authors: Fujishiro Hiroshige , Kawakami Ito , Oshima Kenichi , Niizato Kazuhiro , Iritani Shuji 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACTAlthough delirium shares clinical characteristics with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), there is limited information regarding the relationship between delirium and Lewy body pathology. Here, we report an 89-year-old Japanese woman with an episode of delirium who was pathologically confirmed to have limbic-type Lewy body disease (LBD). Although she exhibited transient visual hallucinations during the delirium, she had no overt dementia. She developed no core clinical features of DLB and died of pneumonia at the age of 90 years. This autopsied case suggests that delirium may be one of the clinical phenotypes of LBD prior to the onset of dementia.
THE POLONAISE AND MAZURKA IN MID-EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY DRESDEN: STYLE AND STRUCTURE IN THE MUSIC OF JOHANN CHRISTIAN ROELLIG
Authors: SPRINGTHORPE NIGEL 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACTWhile recent studies have explored the significance of the Polish style in the music of Georg Philipp Telemann and Johann Sebastian Bach, and the importance of Polish dances in Dresden has long been recognized, the eighteenth-century German polonaise remains a largely neglected area of inquiry. The restoration of the library of the Singakademie zu Berlin in 2000 has made it possible to explore an important collection of mostlyunicasources of music by Saxon composers fromc1740 to 1763 amassed by the Meissen porcelain mosaic artist Carl Jacob Christian Klipfel (1727–1802). Klipfel's collection includes music by Johann Christian Roellig (born 1716), possibly the most prolific composer of polonaises in Dresden during this period and one of the earliest German composers to writemazurs(mazurkas) in instrumental works. The first-hand knowledge of the Polish style that musicians employed by the Saxon electoral court and Count von Brühl gained as a result of frequent journeys to Warsaw resulted in Dresden polonaises that are relatively un-‘Germanized’. This article examines the social and musical contexts of the polonaise in mid-eighteenth-century Dresden, including the repertoire of the annualRedouten(masked balls), then examines the polonaises and mazurkas of Roellig and his contemporaries, including Johann Georg Knechtel, Georg Gebel and Gottlob Harrer. A survey of the use of the polonaise inRedoutentänze, symphonies and partitas reveals significant differences in style and structure between these genres.
C. P. E. BACH ‘IN TORMENTIS’: GOUT PAIN AND BODY LANGUAGE IN THE FANTASIA IN A MAJOR, h278 (1782)
Authors: HEAD MATTHEW 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACTIn his Magazin der Musik, Carl Friedrich Cramer reported that C. P. E. Bach's Fantasia in A major, h278 (1782), was composed during the agonies of gout. Tapping into a reported epidemic of this patrician malady among men of letters, Cramer's anecdote invoked rich associations of sequestered suffering, withdrawal from public life, the pleasures of the table, genius, sexual (im)potency and humour. Reflecting contemporary nerve-based theories of sensation, Cramer aligned different types of physical and mental pain with specific musical gestures. In so doing, he did more than indulge his hermeneutic imagination: he suggested a connection between Bach's solo keyboard music and the experience of embodiment. The seemingly abstract gestures of improvisation were linked dialectically to the corporeal. Behind the specifics of Cramer's reading is a conviction that this kind of music ‘knows’ about the body, as well as the mind, and that it moves between gestures suggestive of thinking, speaking, feeling and corporeal sensation. Analysis of the fantasia, and Bach's letters, supports Cramer's reading.
MOZART'S BAWDY CANONS, VULGARITY AND DEBAUCHERY AT THE WIEDNERTHEATER
Authors: BUCH DAVID J. 
Published: August 2016

ABSTRACTMozart's bawdy canons and use of scatalogical parlance in his letters have been described as indicative of a personality given to crass expression. Moreover, his association with Emanuel Schikaneder's supposedly dissolute Theater auf der Wieden, a boisterous venue for German stage works, has been taken as further evidence of his profligate tendencies. A review of the original source materials reveals that these views are apocryphal, originating after Mozart's death and embellished in nineteenth-century commentary and scholarship. Examples of even raunchier canons, composed by musicians with connections to Mozart, Schikaneder and the Theater auf der Wieden, provide new insight into the genre. An examination of surviving bawdy Viennese canons in their social context, together with a reconsideration of the Mozart family letters and attitudes toward vulgarity in Viennese popular theatre, reveals that lewd expressions on the stage were relatively uncommon in this period, that Mozart's use of scatalogical language was relatively mild for the time and that accounts of the composer's debauchery in his last years have little evidentiary basis.
