AbstractThis work aims to identify the influence of climate change on sedimentary processes associated with the usual regression process during the rise of sea level in the early/middle Holocene in southeastern Brazil. The studied area is on the eastern side of Marambaia Barrier Island, which borders the eastern side of Sepetiba Bay (Rio de Janeiro State, SE Brazil). Nowadays, the Marambaia Barrier Island, a ≈ 40 km long and ≈ 5 km wide sandy ridge, shields Sepetiba Bay from the direct influence of the Atlantic Ocean. To achieve this goal, grain size, geochemical data (including elemental and stable isotopes), and radiocarbon dating data from sediment core SP10 (spanning depths from 8.2 to 45.5 m), collected in the eastern sector of the Marambaia Barrier Island were analyzed. Core SP10 predominantly consists of sandy sediments with some textural variations. However, Sr/Ba ratios suggest that brackish waters primarily influenced the depositional environment, which was also subject to cyclical marine incursions. The essentially felsic sediments of the interval between 45 and 41 m (≈ 10.0–8.5 ka BP) were probably deposited in a protected tidal plain estuary with mangroves. They were possibly mainly sourced from the nearby Pedra Branca Complex. Subsequently, between ≈ 41 and 11 m, the marine influence and hydrodynamics increased, and the sediments exhibited a more mafic mineralogical composition resulting probably from the erosion of the Rio Negro Complex, which is mainly found in the northern region of Sepetiba Bay. The mafic component likely reached the study area through coastal drift connected with Sepetiba Bay. During the drought period, recorded between ~ 7.5 and 7.0 ka cal BP (section 25–21 m), the contribution of the mafic component from the Rio Negro Complex decreased and less weathered sediments were accumulated. On the other hand, marine incursions into the study area became more prominent. During the drier climate phase recorded in the interval ≈ 11–9 m (after ≈ 4.0 ka BP), the La/Sc values indicate that the sediment included a higher proportion of felsic particles, probably due to more significant restrictions on the connection of the study area with Sepetiba Bay due to the development of the Marambaia Barrier Island. These findings are significant as they demonstrate the influence of geomorphology, climate change, sea level, and the development of Holocene barrier islands on the sedimentation in coastal regions.
“It should be much faster fashion”— textile industry stakeholders’ perceptions of a just circular transition in Tamil Nadu, India
Authors: Härri Anna , Levänen Jarkko 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThere is a need for a paradigm shift to circular, sustainable textile systems. The transition will have impacts on people and businesses around the world, yet research on the circular economy has been overly focused on the economic and environmental dimension, lacking in the social dimension. Without design for comprehensive justness, the transition can reproduce or lead to novel injustices. We use distributive, procedural, and recognitive justice dimensions to analyze and uncover justness aspects related to the circular transition in the textile industry in Tamil Nadu, India. Our qualitative analysis is based on interviews with stakeholders of the industry. We uncover several justness tensions related to economic, social, power, value, epistemic, and governance issues. For the just circular transition to succeed, the tensions should at the very least be acknowledged, and ameliorated or dealt with when possible. The building blocks for this process are, for example, codesign of private governance systems, sharing the costs of the transition more equally and inclusion of various voices in knowledge production. As a step forward from the current situation in which a circularity focused approach and a justness focused approach emphasize different aspects, we present a new framework for designing just circular transitions, one that bring these important perspectives together.

AbstractEnvironmental Barrier Coatings (EBCs) are used to protect silicon carbide-based composites in the high-temperature steam combustion environment of the latest generation of high-efficiency gas turbine aero-engines. The Yb2SiO5/BSAS/Si coatings with gradient coefficient of thermal expansion were prepared using atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) method on the carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide ceramic matrix composites (Cf/SiC) composites surface. The coating preparation process parameters were optimized by evaluating the influence of spraying power on the bonding strength, deposition efficiency, and porosity. The corrosion behaviors and mechanism of the optimized Yb2SiO5/BSAS/Si coating was investigated at 1200 ℃ by thermal cycle test in steam conditions. The results indicated that the decomposition of Yb2SiO5 and the conversion of SiO2 to Si(OH)4 were the main corrosion reactions of Yb2SiO5 top coating. Noticeably, the SiO2 component acted as an obvious sign of the reaction front diffusing, forming the clear SiO2-gradient layers. The gradient Yb2SiO5/BSAS/Si coating remained intact after thermal cycles for 500 h at 1200 ℃ in steam conditions which effectively enhanced the resistance of Cf/SiC composites to high temperature steam corrosion.
Forecasting Human Rights Legacies: On Practices and Principles
Authors: Spalding Andrew Brady 
Published: March 2024

AbstractAmong the many human rights and corruption concerns surrounding the Qatar 2022 FIFA Men’s World Cup, two ultimately rose to the fore: labor and LGBTQ+ rights. A careful look at Qatar’s response to these issues reveals a sharp and provocative contrast. Though the World Cup organizers and the Qatari Government generally resisted Western criticism of its LGBTQ+ laws and practices, both bodies adopted systemic labor reforms. To the extent these reforms remain in place several years after the event, they can be said to constitute a human rights legacy. This Article explores one angle from which to understand this contrast. It distinguishes between principles, which are deeply rooted in a country’s political, cultural, or religious belief system, and practices, which find their support in convenience, profit, and the self-interest of entrenched powers but which lack a deeper cultural, philosophical, or religious grounding. It further argues that sexual morality is best understood in the context of Qatari law and culture as a principle, while the labor abuses are mere practices. This distinction helps explain the disparate levels of reform and legacy: to the extent human rights violations are rooted in principles, the likelihood of reform and therefore of legacy is relatively low; where these violations are rooted merely in practices, the likelihood may be substantially higher. This distinction can also help to predict how future host countries/cities will respond to the human rights standards that megasport governing bodies increasingly enforce.

Abstract
This study investigates the geodetic mass balance of nearly all glaciers in the Ladakh region, which are crucial for local water security. Utilizing multiple digital elevation models from 2000 and 2021, we estimate glacier mass balances. Climatic drivers of glacier mass balances are explored using ERA5-Land reanalysis data, evaluated by in situ climate data. The study also examines the role of nonclimatic (morphological) variables on glacier mass balances. Results indicate Ladakh glaciers experienced negative mass balances during 2000–2021, with significant spatial variability. Western Ladakh glaciers lost slightly higher mass (−0.35 ± 0.07 to −0.37 ± 0.07 m w.e. a−1) than eastern Ladakh glaciers (−0.21 ± 0.07 to −0.33 ± 0.05 m w.e. a−1). While warming is the main driver of widespread mass loss in Ladakh, the spatial variability in mass loss is attributed to changes in regional precipitation and glacier morphological settings. Eastern Ladakh glaciers, being smaller and at higher elevations, experience lower mass loss, whereas western Ladakh glaciers, larger and at lower elevations, are more susceptible to the impact of temperature, resulting in higher mass loss. The study underscores the potentially greater vulnerability of western Ladakh glaciers to a warming climate compared to their eastern counterparts.
Facial cues to anger affect meaning interpretation of subsequent spoken prosody
Authors: Petrone Caterina , Carbone Francesca , Audibert Nicolas , Champagne-Lavau Maud 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn everyday life, visual information often precedes the auditory one, hence influencing its evaluation (e.g., seeing somebody’s angry face makes us expect them to speak to us angrily). By using the cross-modal affective paradigm, we investigated the influence of facial gestures when the subsequent acoustic signal is emotionally unclear (neutral or produced with a limited repertoire of cues to anger). Auditory stimuli spoken with angry or neutral prosody were presented in isolation or preceded by pictures showing emotionally related or unrelated facial gestures (angry or neutral faces). In two experiments, participants rated the valence and emotional intensity of the auditory stimuli only. These stimuli were created from acted speech from movies and delexicalized via speech synthesis, then manipulated by partially preserving or degrading their global spectral characteristics. All participants relied on facial cues when the auditory stimuli were acoustically impoverished; however, only a subgroup of participants used angry faces to interpret subsequent neutral prosody. Thus, listeners are sensitive to facial cues for evaluating what they are about to hear, especially when the auditory input is less reliable. These results extend findings on face perception to the auditory domain and confirm inter-individual variability in considering different sources of emotional information.

Published: March 2024

AbstractWe prove a nonarchimedean analogue of Jørgensen’s inequality, and use it to deduce several algebraic convergence results. As an application, we show that every dense subgroup of
${\mathrm {SL}_2}(K)$
, where K is a p-adic field, contains two elements that generate a dense subgroup of
${\mathrm {SL}_2}(K)$
, which is a special case of a result by Breuillard and Gelander [‘On dense free subgroups of Lie groups’, J. Algebra261(2) (2003), 448–467]. We also list several other related results, which are well known to experts, but not easy to locate in the literature; for example, we show that a nonelementary subgroup of
${\mathrm {SL}_2}(K)$
over a nonarchimedean local field K is discrete if and only if each of its two-generator subgroups is discrete.

Published: March 2024

AbstractSince 2007, the National Academy for Sciences Engineering and Medicine (NASEM) has recommended Earth Science research and investment priorities every 10 years. The Decadal Survey balances the continuation of essential climate variable time series against unmet measurement needs and new Earth Observations made possible by technological breakthroughs. The next survey (2027–2028, DS28) will be framed by a rapidly changing world, and it will be critical to anticipate the observational needs of the 2030s–2040s, a world increasingly dominated by climate extremes and a rapidly changing Earth system. Here, we highlight some of the changes that factor into a framework for the DS28.
Exploring the Modifying Role of GDP and Greenness on the Short Effect of Air Pollutants on Respiratory Hospitalization in Beijing

Published: March 2024

AbstractIt is unclear whether Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and greenness have additional modifying effects on the association between air pollution and respiratory system disease. Utilizing a time‐stratified case‐crossover design with a distributed lag linear model, we analyzed the association between six pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, O3, and CO) and 555,498 respiratory hospital admissions in Beijing from 1st January 2016 to 31st December 2019. We employed conditional logistic regression, adjusting for meteorological conditions, holidays and influenza, to calculate percent change of hospitalization risk. Subsequently, we performed subgroup analysis to investigate potential effect modifications using a two‐sample z test. Every 10 μg/m3 increase in PM2.5, PM10, NO2, SO2, and O3 led to increases of 0.26% (95%CI: 0.17%, 0.35%), 0.15% (95%CI: 0.09%, 0.22%), 0.61% (95%CI: 0.44%, 0.77%), 1.72% (95%CI: 1.24%, 2.21%), and 0.32% (95%CI: 0.20%, 0.43%) in admissions, respectively. Also, a 1 mg/m3 increase in CO levels resulted in a 2.50% (95%CI: 1.96%, 3.04%) rise in admissions. The links with NO2 (p < 0.001), SO2 (p < 0.001), O3 (during the warm season, p < 0.001), and CO (p < 0.001) were significantly weaker among patients residing in areas with higher levels of greenness. No significant modifying role of GDP was observed. Greenness can help mitigate the effects of air pollutants, while the role of GDP needs further investigation.
The Unreasonable Efficiency of Total Rain Evaporation Removal in Triggering Convective Self‐Aggregation
Authors: Hwong Y.‐L. , Muller C. J. 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe elimination of rain evaporation in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) has been found to lead to convective self‐aggregation (CSA) even without radiative feedback, but the precise mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain unclear. We conducted cloud‐resolving simulations with two domain sizes and progressively reduced rain evaporation in the PBL. Surprisingly, CSA only occurred when rain evaporation was almost completely removed. The additional convective heating resulting from the reduction of evaporative cooling in the moist patch was found to be the trigger, thereafter a dry subsidence intrusion into the PBL in the dry patch takes over and sets CSA in motion. Temperature and moisture anomalies oppose each other in their buoyancy effects, hence explaining the need for almost total rain evaporation removal. We also found radiative cooling and not cold pools to be the leading cause for the comparative ease of CSA to take place in the larger domain.
How Variable Are Cold Pools?

Published: March 2024

AbstractCold pools formed by precipitating convective clouds are an important source of mesoscale temperature variability. However, their sub‐mesoscale (100 m–10 km) structure has not been quantified, impeding validation of numerical models and understanding of their atmospheric and societal impacts. We assess temperature variability in observed and simulated cold pools using variograms calculated from dense network observations collected during a field experiment and in high‐resolution case‐study and idealized simulations. The temperature variance in cold pools is enhanced for spatial scales between ∼5 and 15 km compared to pre‐cold pool conditions, but the magnitude varies strongly with cold pool evolution and environment. Simulations capture the overall cold pool variogram shape well but underestimate the magnitude of the variability, irrespective of model resolution. Temperature variograms outside of cold pool periods are represented by the range of simulations evaluated here, suggesting that models misrepresent cold pool formation and/or dissipation processes.
Influence of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation on Winter Temperatures and Precipitation Over the Southern Tibetan Plateau

Published: March 2024

AbstractWe used observational data and a long‐term piControl simulation from the Community Earth System Model Version 2 to investigate the influence of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) on the winter climate over the Tibetan Plateau. The results showed that changes in the phase of the PDO have a significant effect on winter temperatures and precipitation over the southern Tibetan Plateau. Changes in the sea surface temperature (SST) during the positive PDO can weaken the Walker circulation and increase the SST in the Indian Ocean. Our analyses of the moist static energy showed that warming of the tropical troposphere over the Indian Ocean caused by the increased SST has resulted in the horizontal advection of anomalous moist enthalpy by the climatological zonal winds, which was responsible for anomalous ascending motion over the Tibetan Plateau. The additional moisture budget suggests that enhanced vertical motion contributes to the increase in winter precipitation and related total cloud cover over the Tibetan Plateau, leading to the increase of snow depth. The increased total cloud cover and snow depth, in turn, reduces net surface shortwave radiation. The surface air temperature of the Tibetan Plateau is then decreased as a result of the reduction in the net surface shortwave radiation. The PDO therefore has an important modulating role in the interdecadal variability of the winter climate over the Tibetan Plateau. We therefore need to focus on changes in the PDO in research related to the decadal prediction of the climate over the Tibetan Plateau.

Published: March 2024

AbstractThe recent introduction of new-generation immunoassay methods allows the reliable quantification of structural brain markers in peripheral matrices. Neurofilament light chain (NfL), a neuron-specific cytoskeletal component released in extracellular matrices after neuroaxonal impairment, is considered a promising blood marker of active brain pathology. Given its sensitivity to a wide range of neuropathological alterations, NfL has been suggested for the use in clinical practice as a highly sensitive, but unspecific tool to quantify active brain pathology. While large efforts have been put in characterizing its clinical profile in many neurological conditions, NfL has received far less attention as a potential biomarker in major psychiatric disorders. Therefore, we briefly introduce NfL as a marker of neuroaxonal injury, systematically review recent findings on cerebrospinal fluid and blood NfL levels in patients with primary psychiatric conditions and highlight the opportunities and pitfalls. Current evidence suggests an elevation of blood NfL levels in patients with major depression, bipolar disorder, psychotic disorders, anorexia nervosa, and substance use disorders compared to physiological states. However, blood NfL levels strongly vary across diagnostic entities, clinical stage, and patient subgroups, and are influenced by several demographic, clinical, and analytical factors, which require accurate characterization. Potential clinical applications of NfL measure in psychiatry are seen in diagnostic and prognostic algorithms, to exclude neurodegenerative disease, in the assessment of brain toxicity for different pharmacological compounds, and in the longitudinal monitoring of treatment response. The high inter-individual variability of NfL levels and the lack of neurobiological understanding of its release are some of the main current limitations. Overall, this primer aims to introduce researchers and clinicians to NfL measure in the psychiatric field and to provide a conceptual framework for future research directions.
A research report on the phase-domain trajectories of fault recording and their mathematical models
Authors: Ge Qun , Ren Lu , Li Jia 
Published: March 2024

AbstractIn currently known theories and algorithms of fault recording analysis and application, there is little literature where fault feature parameters are mined deeply from electrical physical quantities themselves. In this report the calculation method of the phase angles of the reference point and sample points is obtained, which ensures the correspondence of the time-domain waveform of digital fault recording with its phase-domain trajectory. The relationship between the initial phase angle of a sinusoid and the position of its trajectory, the characteristics of the trajectories of three-phase short-circuit currents containing dc components and the mathematical models of these trajectories are analyzed. Taking a rectangular wave current and a triangle wave current as example, the characteristics of the trajectories of non-sinusoidal and periodical waveforms containing harmonics are analyzed as well as their mathematical models. The research results show that the relationship between the initial phase angle of a sinusoid and the position of its circular trajectory is definite; the dc components have no impact on the positions of the trajectories of the short-circuit currents, but on their sizes and shapes; the harmonics have an impact on the shapes of the trajectories, and their positions are decided by the initial phase angles of the ac fundamental components in the waveforms. Subsequent study of the algorithm of fault recording analysis will be spread based on the contents in this report.
