Minority and Majority Positions: The Religious Subjectivities and Value Profiles Among Muslim Students in Israel and Turkey
Authors: Kheir Sawsan , Gökce Habibe Erdiş , Meijer Clara Marlijn , Illman Ruth 
Published: June 2022

AbstractRecent research indicates that global changes in life views, religion, and values are taking place. This study explores reflections of these changes on the religious subjectivities and value profiles of young adult Muslim students in Turkey and in Israel. These cases were chosen based on their similar religious backgrounds on the one hand, and the large differences in their cultural and political contexts on the other.Our findings are based on a mixed-method study, Young Adults and Religion in a Global Perspective (YARG), which includes the Schwartz’s value survey (PVQ-RR) and the Faith Q-Sort-method (FQS) developed by Prof. David Wulff. Muslim students in Israel reported higher degrees of self- and family religiosity, and involvement in religious practices in private, as compared to Muslim students in Turkey. Furthermore, the analysis of the FQS yielded five different prototypes for each group, and similarities between certain pairs of prototypes were observed. Our results indicate that despite the shared religious affiliation to Islam, the cultural context of each group contributes largely to differences in religious subjectivities and values between young adult Muslim students in Turkey and in Israel. Such a comparison valuably contributes to understanding the socio-psychological factors that shape the results of the interchange between processes of convergence of cultural values with the persistence of traditional values.
Young Adults as a Social Category: Findings from an International Study in Light of Developmental and Cohort Perspectives
Authors: Klingenberg Maria , Sjö Sofia , Moberg Marcus 
Published: June 2022

AbstractThe purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the basic characteristics of the university students who have participated in the Young Adults and Religion in a Global Perspective (YARG) project, as mirrored in the survey data, and to discuss the findings in light of theoretical assumptions about young adults. The chapter provides an introduction to two prevalent research perspectives on youth: a developmental perspective, and a cohort perspective. Background statistics as well as the main findings on religion are then discussed in light of these perspectives. The respondents’ age, civil state and relational commitments are analyzed from a developmental perspective, which assumes similarity on behalf of young adults as a consequence of their age. Furthermore, findings on values and media use are presented in order to explore whether the survey data provides support for the participants forming a generation, the main tenet of a cohort perspective, in terms of sharing values and media habits. The concluding section discusses the extent to which higher education sets university students apart from the youth population in generally, as reflected in the YARG data. The chapter therefore provides a first glimpse into who the participants are, and what the categorization of them as young adults entails.
Who Are They and What Do They Value? – The Five Global Worldviews of Young Adults
Authors: Nynäs Peter , Keysar Ariela , Lagerström Martin 
Published: June 2022

AbstractIn this chapter, we present five distinct worldview profiles that describe ways of being religious, spiritual and secular. The findings emerge from our international study with young adults in twelve countries worldwide, and it is based on the Faith Q-Sort (FQS) and Q-methodology. FQS is a novel way to assess worldviews based on what is called prototypes from a factor analysis of how people respond to a set of statements. We implemented the FQS as part of our mixed-method approach, and results from the survey part allows us to further explore the five prototypes closer. How are the worldviews different from each other in terms of national distribution, demographic data, measure of religiosity, basic values, life satisfaction, where they get information, and aspects of trust? Since FQS is a new instrument in the study of religions, the investigation based on the mixed method approach helps us to evaluate its usefulness and quality as a method for assessment of ways of being (non)religious.
Conceptualizing Human–Nature Interactions – An Overview
Authors: Egarter Vigl Lukas , Depellegrin Daniel , Misiune Ieva 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementThe threats posed by climate change and global biodiversity loss are increasingly seen as a major problem for the future of nature and humanity. Significant improvements in the understanding of how human and nature interact are thus required to address both challenges comprehensively. Over the past decade, different nature-based approaches, such as Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), Green Infrastructure (GI), and Nature’s Contributions to People (NCP), have enriched the scientific discourse and gained prominence in policy- and decision-making. However, the underlying concepts are vaguely defined, and their systematic uptake is hampered by a lack of clarity over the relationships and overlaps between different nature-based approaches. Here, we discuss recent advances in conceptualizing human–nature interactions with the aim of making these concepts more tangible and applicable for a broader audience.
Environmental [In]Equity: Accessibility to Green Spaces in a Rapidly Urbanizing Mountain-City
Authors: Rossi Sebastian D. , Otero Adriana M. , Abraham Elena , Byrne Jason 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementOpen Green Spaces (OGS) provide a range of cultural ecosystems services including health benefits through recreational and tourism opportunities. Rapid and oftentimes unplanned urbanization can result in the loss of OGS, negatively affecting urban dwellers’ health and wellbeing. An example is the rapidly expanding city of San Carlos de Bariloche, located in the Argentinean Patagonia, surrounded by the iconic Nahuel Huapi National Park. The study reported here sought to assess the availability and distribution equity of public OGS in Bariloche. The study found inequalities in access and distribution; ‘wealthier’ neighbourhoods offered more OGS than poorer neighbourhoods. Better regulation of development is required and future land use plans need to preserve and protect future OGS sites and improve access points to existing OGS to ensure more equitable access to diverse natural landscapes.
Ecosystem Service Flows Across the Rural-Urban Spectrum
Authors: Lewis Amy , Devenish Katie , Dolan Rachel , Garraty Tara , Okosun Oboh , Scowen Matthew , Welivita Indunee , Willcock Simon 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementKey differences exist between how rural and urban people receive benefits from nature (termed ecosystem services; ES). In rural areas, people are thought to have relatively direct relationships with local ecosystems (e.g. growing food on your subsistence farm). By contrast, within urban areas, people often have more indirect access to distant ecosystems (e.g. obtaining food from hundreds of miles away via supermarket value chain). However, this leaves many questions unanswered: e.g., What natural benefits are present within cities? When do nature’s benefits flow into cities? When do the people travel out to directly receive nature’s benefits? Here, we explore this issue – breaking down ES flows into two components (i.e. the movement of natural goods and the movement of beneficiaries [people]).
Accessibility to and Fragmentation of Urban Green Infrastructure: Importance for Adaptation to Climate Change
Authors: Misiune Ieva , Kazys Justas 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementUrban green infrastructure (GI) is one of the key strategies to respond to environmental problems. It helps to support biodiversity, adaptation to climate change and ensure the provision of ecosystem services (ES). Scientific literature suggests that there are thresholds for minimum viable green area patch sizes. Besides the size, accessibility is another important factor for the supply of ES. This work assesses how demand and accessibility can be improved addressing fragmentation of GI in Vilnius, Lithuania. The analysis shows that climate adaptation policy should guide the development of GI addressing simultaneously the demand of ES and fragmentation of the GI, for instance, by reconnecting existing natural areas in this way increasing accessibility and reducing the risk of further habitat fragmentation.
The Role of Allotment Gardens for Connecting Nature and People
Authors: Schneider Petra , Fauk Tino 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementAllotment gardens (AG) are valuable elements of communities that provide substantial ecosystem services. An AG as a type of community garden is a plot of land made available for individual, non-commercial gardening or growing food plants. Beside the provision of urban ecosystem services, AG’s deliver an ecological potential to habitat connectivity in the urban realm as well a substantial contribution to human health. The role of AG’s in the frame of urban ecosystems is manifold and multifunctional. Beside their purpose for food production and recreation, AG’s offer crucial benefits for public health and wellbeing, social inclusion, environment, and as cultural archive. Their intrinsic purpose is connectivity, for habitats, people, ecosystem services and circular flux management. The contribution is based on a literature review supported by a field survey that was performed in the period 2017–2020 in Ecuador, Germany, Sweden, Uganda, and Vietnam.
The Link Between Urban Green Space Planning Tools and Distributive, Procedural and Recognition Justice
Authors: Hanson Helena I. , Alkan Olsson Johanna 
Published: June 2022

Significant StatementClimate change and an increasing urbanisation create pressure on cities in terms of extreme weather events, deteriorated public health and wellbeing and a loss of biodiversity. Urban green spaces, such as parks and street trees, can help to reduce vulnerability and improve living conditions. Planning tools can support decisions on where, what and how much urban green space to save or implement. If used appropriately, planning tools can capture citizens’ needs and foster a more just planning and implementation of urban green spaces. This demands knowledge about the tools, their efficiency and appropriate application, as well as knowledge about the ecosystem and human needs. It also demands adequate technical, time and economic resources, as well as organisational and communication structures that can include citizens in the planning process.
The Socio-Ecological Dimension of Ocean Multi-Use Platforms
Authors: Depellegrin Daniel , van den Burg Sander , Schupp Maximillian Felix , Johanning Lars 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementA Multi-Use Platform can integrate different maritime activities into a single sea area. We propose an analytical framework to investigate the socio-ecological benefits and impacts of potential Multi-Use Platforms designs in the Mediterranean and North Sea. The framework uses a marine ecosystem services matrix that has the aim to facilitate knowledge sharing on the ecosystem goods and services a Multi-Use Platform can potentially support and interact with. The results highlight that Multi-Use Platforms provide multiple opportunities for energy generation, food provisioning (e.g. recreational fishing, extractive aquaculture) and cultural services (e.g. coastal recreation, diving, research and monitoring). Further research suggests application of quantitative socio-ecological analysis techniques to measure potential synergies and trade-offs among the multiple activities of the platform.
Disentangling Trade-Offs Between the State of Coastal Ecosystems with Human Well-Being and Activities as a Strategy Addressing Sustainable Tourism
Authors: Drius Mita , Pugnetti Alessandra , Bongiorni Lucia 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementCoastal tourism is a major driver for the local and regional economy of many Mediterranean areas. At the same time, this industry generates threats that, added to those produced by other coastal human activities, substantially damage the coastal and marine environment. A damaged environment cannot provide many fundamental benefits for coastal tourism itself, such as for instance clear water, coastal protection and natural beauty. We propose a framework for unravelling the threats and benefits related to coastal tourism, and we present two lists of indicators of coastal tourism sustainability, to monitor the impact of coastal tourism on the natural environment (threat indicators), and to assess which threat mitigation measures can counteract it (enabling factor indicators).
Transformations of Urban Coastal Nature(s): Meanings and Paradoxes of Nature-Based Solutions for Climate Adaptation in Southeast Asia
Authors: Herbeck Johannes , Siriwardane-de Zoysa Rapti 
Published: June 2022

Significance StatementThis chapter puts into conversation two distinct yet interrelated planning visions – Blue Urbanism as a movement in its own right. driven by the overarching promise of more meaningfully reconnecting coastal cities with their marine ecosystems, and Nature-based solutions, with roots in engineering that encompass a broad range of conservationist and infrastructural interventions rooted in Euro-American sensibilities around (urban) nature. Drawing on urban Southeast Asia for inspiration, namely Jakarta, Metro Manila and Singapore, the chapter unpicks dominant understandings of “nature” within its concomitant planning paradigms. Particular attention is placed on divergent meanings and contradictions that underpin how urban coastal nature(s) are materially imagined, reproduced and contested through often technical means, utilitarian value-systems, and modes of governing adaptation in its broadest sense.

Published: June 2022

AbstractA new method of mathematical OCR
to improve remarkably recognition accuracy for e-born PDF by making use of SVG information generated from the PDF is shown. Even if a local language is used to represent texts in the PDF, without a special OCR engine for that language, it can be converted into various accessible e-formats. The software GUI is improved so that end users can customize it easily for their language. Its French and Vietnamese versions are actually released by using this new feature. Some evaluations done in Vietnam are also reported.
Exploring the Dynamics of Quantum Information in Many-Body Localised Systems with High Performance Computing
Authors: Chiew Shao-Hen , Kwek Leong-Chuan , Lee Chee-Kong 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Conventional many-body quantum systems thermalize under their own dynamics, losing information about their initial configurations to the environment. However, it is known that a strong disorder results in many-body localization (MBL). A closed quantum systems with MBL retains local information even in the presence of interactions. Here, we numerically study the propagation and scrambling of quantum information of a closed system in the MBL phase from an information theoretic perspective. By simulating the dynamics and equilibration of the temporal mutual information for long times, we see that it can distinguish between MBL and ergodic phases.

RetrofittAR: Supporting Hardware-Centered Expertise Sharing in Manufacturing Settings through Augmented Reality
Authors: Hoffmann Sven , Ludwig Thomas , Jasche Florian , Wulf Volker , Randall David 
Published: June 2022

Abstract
Since almost the onset of computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW), the community has been concerned with how expertise sharing can be supported in different settings. Here, the complex handling of machines based on experience and knowledge is increasingly becoming a challenge. In our study, we investigated expertise sharing in a medium-sized manufacturing company in an effort to support the fostering of hardware-based expertise sharing by using augmented reality (AR) to ‘retrofit’ machines. We, therefore, conducted a preliminary empirical study to understand how expertise is shared in practice and what current support is available. Based on the findings, we derived design challenges and implications for the design of AR systems in manufacturing settings. The main challenges, we found, had to do with existing socio-technical infrastructure and the contextual nature of expertise. We implemented a HoloLens application called RetrofittAR that supports learning on the production machine during actual use. We evaluated the system during the company’s actual production process. The results show which data types are necessary to support expertise sharing and how our design supports the retrofitting of old machines. We contribute to the current state of research in two ways. First, we present the knowledge-intensive practice of operating older production machines through novel AR interfaces. Second, we outline how retrofitting measures with new visualisation technologies can support knowledge-intensive production processes.
If You Care About a Rule, Why Weaken Its Enforcement Dimension? On a Tension in the War Convention
Authors: Burri Susanne 
Published: June 2022

AbstractIn War by Agreement (Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, 2019), Yitzhak Benbaji and Daniel Statman argue that the ‘war convention’ – i.e. the international laws and conventions that are widely accepted to govern the use of force between sovereign states – represents a morally binding contract. On their understanding, the war convention replaces a pre-contractual morality governed by principles that so-called reductive individualists have identified and argued for over the past twenty years. This paper argues that if we take Benbaji and Statman’s contractarian interpretation of the war convention seriously, we have to conclude that its in bello rules have moral force only in contexts where its ad bellum rules were breached non-culpably. While Benbaji and Statman do not attend to this limitation of their argument, it has important ramifications in practice, as it is frequently unclear in the context of war whether one’s adversary is acting in good faith.
Localized Delivery of Liquid Fertilizer in Coarse-Textured Soils Using Foam as Carrier
Authors: Shojaei Mohammad Javad , Or Dani , Shokri Nima 
Published: June 2022

AbstractAgrochemicals and fertilizers are central to modern agriculture and are credited with the large increase of crop yield as a part of the Green Revolution of the 1960’s. Timely and targeted fertilizer application to crop root zones enhances effectiveness and reduces unintended release to the environment. This is particularly important for highly mobile liquid fertilizers (e.g., nitrate) that can be mobilized with infiltrating water to bypass root-bearing soil volumes. We report a novel liquid fertilizer delivery method using foam as carrier. The high degree of control and mechanical stability of liquid fertilizer foam (defined dispersed gas bubbles in a continuous liquid phase) injection into coarse soils (most susceptible to preferential flows) is proposed a novel delivery method to targeted root zone volumes at concentrations and geometry that promote uptake and reduces losses. This note and preliminary communication meant to serve a proof of concept report comparing foam and conventional liquid fertilizer applications. The results indicate that foam-delivery reduced fertilizer leaching thus improving its retention in soil for similar flow conditions of liquid delivery. Theoretical estimates suggest that the effects of fertilizer retention could be enhanced in more localized (3-D) injection of foam fertilizers and other agrochemicals thus enhancing agronomic efficiency and reducing environmental risk of contamination.
The P2 purinoceptors in prostate cancer
Authors: Wang Zilin , Zhu Sha , Tan Sirui , Zeng Yuhao , Zeng Hao 
Published: June 2022

AbstractP2 purinoceptors are composed of ligand-gated ion channel type (P2X receptor) and G protein-coupled metabolite type (P2Y receptor). Both these receptors have played important roles in the prostate cancer microenvironment in recent years. P2X and P2Y receptors can contribute to prostate cancer’s growth and invasiveness. However, the comprehensive mechanisms have yet to be identified. By summarizing the relevant studies, we believe that P2X and P2Y receptors play a dual role in cancer cell growth depending on the prostate cancer microenvironment and different downstream signalling pathways. We also summarized how different signalling pathways contribute to tumor invasiveness and metastasis through P2X and P2Y receptors, focusing on understanding the specific mechanisms led by P2X4, P2X7, and P2Y2. Statins may reduce and prevent tumor progression through P2X7 so that P2X purinergic receptors may have clinical implications in the management of prostate cancer. Furthermore, P2X7 receptors can aid in the early detection of prostate cancer. We hope that this review will provide new insights for future mechanistic and clinical investigations into the role of P2 purinergic receptors in prostate cancer.
