Experimental atmospherics: a multi-sensory perspective
Authors: Spence Charles 
Published: August 2022

Purpose
Atmospherics is undoubtedly a multi-sensory concept, despite mostly being studied on a sense-by-sense basis by architects, sensory marketers and urban designers alike. That is, our experience is nearly always the result of cross-modal/multi-sensory interactions between what we see, hear, smell and feel in a given space. As such, it is critical that researchers study the senses in concert. That said, the few empirical studies that have attempted to assess the impact of deliberately combining the senses in a retail/health-care environment have typically failed to deliver the multi-sensory boost to experience (or sales) that the multi-sensory science predicts ought to be observed. Invoking notions of processing fluency, sensory overload and sensory (in-) congruency in the field of multi-sensory atmospherics may help to explain what happened (or went wrong) in such cases.

Design/methodology/approach
Critical review of literature on atmospherics and sensory marketing, highlighting various difficulties of interpretation and challenges to accepted conclusions.

Findings
Atmospherics is a fundamentally multi-sensory concept, and cross-modal interactions are the rule, not the exception. As such, researchers need to study atmospherics in a multi-sensory context.

Originality/value
This critical commentary highlights the need for researchers to consider atmospherics from a multi-sensory, rather than sense-by-sense perspective.

Abstract

Rapid technological advancements and increasing data availability have improved the capacity to monitor and evaluate Earth's ecology via remote sensing. However, remote sensing is notoriously ‘blind’ to fine‐scale ecological processes such as interactions among plants, which encompass a central topic in ecology.

Here, we discuss how remote sensing technologies can help infer plant–plant interactions and their roles in shaping plant‐based systems at individual, community and landscape levels. At each of these levels, we outline the key attributes of ecosystems that emerge as a product of plant–plant interactions and could possibly be detected by remote sensing data. We review the theoretical bases, approaches and prospects of how inference of plant–plant interactions can be assessed remotely.

At the individual level, we illustrate how close‐range remote sensing tools can help to infer plant–plant interactions, especially in experimental settings. At the community level, we use forests to illustrate how remotely sensed community structure can be used to infer dominant interactions as a fundamental force in shaping plant communities. At the landscape level, we highlight how remotely sensed attributes of vegetation states and spatial vegetation patterns can be used to assess the role of local plant–plant interactions in shaping landscape ecological systems.

Synthesis. Remote sensing extends the domain of plant ecology to broader and finer spatial scales, assisting to scale ecological patterns and search for generic rules. Robust remote sensing approaches are likely to extend our understanding of how plant–plant interactions shape ecological processes across scales—from individuals to landscapes. Combining these approaches with theories, models, experiments, data‐driven approaches and data analysis algorithms will firmly embed remote sensing techniques into ecological context and open new pathways to better understand biotic interactions.

AbstractThe untapped divergence of pigeonpea has remained unutilized for ages. Pigeonpea is an important natural resource with a great divergence that can be explored in the field of sustainable agricultural development. This study was undertaken to assess the nutritional divergence available in 104 cultivated and wild pigeonpea genotypes from India and Africa. Pigeonpea is studied to identify suitable genotypic groups to enhance nutritional traits for future breeding programs. Genotypes of pigeonpea exhibited highly significant differences in terms of seed iron and, zinc concentrations, protein content, phytic acid levels, lipid content, moisture content, fiber content and seed weight. Our D2 analysis grouped 104 different pigeonpea accessions into eleven clusters. Five of the eight characters including seed phytic acid levels, iron, fiber, lipid and protein contents were the predominant characters that contributed towards the pigeonpea's total divergence. Cluster II exhibited the maximum seed iron concentration. Cluster IV exhibited the maximum seed zinc concentration, lipid and moisture content; it exhibited the least phytic acid and fiber content which is desirable with regards to the bioavailability of iron and zinc. The accessions in clusters II, III, IV, V and XI are diverse and have desirable content levels of traits found beneficial for enhancing seed iron and zinc concentrations in pigeonpea. A D2 analysis revealed that Indo‐African C. cajan, C. platycarpus and R. rothii had the maximum mean seed iron concentration and R. bracteata had the maximum mean seed zinc concentration. The promising genotypes identified in the present study can contribute towards selecting suitable starting material for biofortification in pigeonpea improvement programmes.

Published: August 2022

AbstractArbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) provide crucial support for the establishment of plants in novel environments. We hypothesized that the OTU/genus richness and diversity of soil‐ and root‐associated AMF associated with alien plant species in their exotic ranges are lower than those in their native ranges. We examined the root‐associated and soil‐dwelling AMF of 11 invasive plant species in their native and exotic ranges in the United States and Europe by DNA sequencing of the ITS2 locus. Examined root‐associated AMF assemblages were simplified, which manifested as the loss of several AMF genera in the exotic ranges of the plants. These fungal assemblages were also characterized by greater dominance and simplification of the fungal assemblages. The dominant fungal genera were present regardless of whether their host plants were in their native or exotic ranges. Interestingly, both the native and invaded soils hosted diverse local AMF assemblages. Therefore, alien plant invasions were not limited to soils with low AMF diversity. Some AMF taxa could be context‐dependent passengers rather than drivers of alien plant invasions. Further studies should identify functions of AMF missing or less abundant in roots of plants growing in exotic ranges.

Abstract

Tropical forests are subject to diverse deforestation pressures while their conservation is essential to achieve global climate goals. Predicting the location of deforestation is challenging due to the complexity of the natural and human systems involved but accurate and timely forecasts could enable effective planning and on‐the‐ground enforcement practices to curb deforestation rates. New computer vision technologies based on deep learning can be applied to the increasing volume of Earth observation data to generate novel insights and make predictions with unprecedented accuracy.

Here, we demonstrate the ability of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to learn spatiotemporal patterns of deforestation from a limited set of freely available global data layers, including multispectral satellite imagery, the Hansen maps of annual forest change (2001–2020) and the ALOS PALSAR digital surface model, to forecast deforestation (2021). We designed four model architectures, based on 2D CNNs, 3D CNNs, and Convolutional Long Short‐Term Memory (ConvLSTM) Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), to produce spatial maps that indicate the risk to each forested pixel (~30 m) in the landscape of becoming deforested within the next year. They were trained and tested on data from two ~80,000 km2 tropical forest regions in the Southern Peruvian Amazon.

The networks could predict the location of future forest loss to a high degree of accuracy (F1 = 0.58–0.71). Our best performing model (3D CNN) had the highest pixel‐wise accuracy (F1 = 0.71) when validated on 2020 forest loss (2014–2019 training). Visual interpretation of the mapped forecasts indicated that the network could automatically discern the drivers of forest loss from the input data. For example, pixels around new access routes (e.g. roads) were assigned high risk, whereas this was not the case for recent, concentrated natural loss events (e.g. remote landslides).

Convolutional neural networks can harness limited time‐series data to predict near‐future deforestation patterns, an important step in harnessing the growing volume of satellite remote sensing data to curb global deforestation. The modelling framework can be readily applied to any tropical forest location and used by governments and conservation organisations to prevent deforestation and plan protected areas.

AbstractSrichairat, N., Taksintum, W., & Chumnanpuen, P. (2022). Histological and histochemical characteristics of the oral, pharyngeal and accessory digestive organs in the water monitor lizard (Varanus salvator) from Thailand. Anatomia Histologia Embryologia, 51, https://doi.org/10.1111/ahe.12846. The water monitor lizard (Varanus salvator) is largely distributed in Southeast Asia, especially Thailand, which the microanatomical structure studies on this particular species have been limited. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine and describe the oral, pharyngeal and accessory digestive organs' histological and histochemical characteristics. Histological and histochemical examinations were performed on the two specimens (male and female). The majority of V. salvator oral, pharyngeal and accessory digestive organs are similar to those of other vertebrates, according to the results of the histological investigation. However, several unique characteristics have been observed, such as the dentine lamella (plicidentine fold) at the tooth root structure was discovered to be attached to the jaw bone, the absence of lingual papillae and taste buds on the tongue, and the absence of inner surface folding structures in the gallbladder. Regarding mucin histochemical investigation, acid and neutral mucins were discovered in the pharyngeal glands of V. salvator, whereas only acid mucin was found in the mandibular salivary glands. This study reveals the histological and histochemical characteristics of V. salvator oral, pharyngeal and accessory digestive organs, which could be employed to improve digestive tract function, as well as the necessity of understanding animal digestive processes.

AbstractIntroductionThe global increase of individuals born by cesarean section with reported levels up to 20% of all deliveries, makes it important to study cesarean section and possible associations that can increase risk of subsequent diseases in children. The aim of the study was to evaluate if cesarean section is associated with increased risk of gastrointestinal disease later in life in a large population‐based cohort.Material and methodsIn this national population‐based cohort study including all full‐term individuals registered in the Medical Birth Register in Sweden between 1990 and 2000, type of delivery (exposure) was collected from the Medical Birth Register. The study population was followed until 2017 with regards to the outcomes: inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis), appendicitis, cholecystitis, or diverticulitis registered in the Swedish National Patient Register. Cox proportional‐hazards models compared disease‐free survival time between exposed and unexposed.ResultsThe final study population consisted of 1 102 468 individuals of whom 11.6% were delivered by cesarean section and 88.4% were vaginally delivered. In univariate analysis, cesarean section was associated with Crohn's disease (hazard ratio [HR] 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02–1.25), diverticulosis (HR 1.57, 95% CI 1.13–2.18), and cholecystitis (HR 1.16, 95% CI 1.05–1.28). However, the increased risk only remained for Crohn's disease after adjustment for confounders (HR 1.14, 95% CI 1.02–1.27). No associations between delivery mode and appendicitis, ulcerative colitis, cholecystitis, or diverticulosis were found in the multivariate analysis.ConclusionsCesarean section is associated with Crohn's disease later in life, but no other association between delivery mode and gastrointestinal disorders later in life could be found.
Children's developing ability to adjust their beliefs reasonably in light of disagreement
Authors: Langenhoff Antonia F. , Engelmann Jan M. , Srinivasan Mahesh 
Published: August 2022

AbstractTwo preregistered experiments (N = 218) investigated children's developing ability to respond reasonably to disagreement. U.S. children aged 4–9, and adults (50% female, mostly white) formed an initial belief, and were confronted with the belief of a disagreeing other, whose evidence was weaker, stronger than, or equal to participants' evidence. With age, participants were increasingly likely to maintain their initial belief when their own evidence was stronger, adopt the other's belief when their evidence was weaker, and suspend judgment when both had equally strong evidence. Interestingly, 4‐ to 6‐year‐olds only suspended judgment reliably when this was assessed via the search for additional information (Experiment 2). Together, our experiments suggest that the ability to respond reasonably to disagreement develops over the preschool years.

Published: August 2022

AbstractBackgroundCurrent evidence about long‐term survival of all‐ceramic implant‐supported cantilever fixed dental prostheses (cFDP) is limited.PurposeTo evaluate the survival and complication rates of all‐ceramic and metal–ceramic implant‐supported cFDPs located in anterior and posterior sites, under consideration of risk factors.Methods of studyThe retrospective analysis compared an experimental group (75 implant‐supported cFDPs among 48 patients [mean age 60.47 ± 9.25 years; 21 men]; mean observation period 3.56 years) with a control group (300 implant‐supported non‐cantilever FDPs [ncFDP] among 241 patients [mean age 62.85 ± 10.72 years; 109 men]; mean observation period 7.25 years). Kaplan–Meier estimates were used to describe the long‐term survival and success of both groups. Log‐rank tests were used for group comparisons. Mixed‐effects Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to examine the effects of restoration‐ and site‐specific risk factors. A random intercept was included in the models to take multiple FDPs per patient into account.ResultsFive‐year cumulative survival until loss of restoration was 97.1% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.93–1.00) for cFDPs and 97.0% (95% CI 0.95–0.99) for ncFDPs. Ten‐year survival was 93.7% (95% CI 0.86–1.00) for cFDPs and 92.8% (95% CI 0.87–0.98) for ncFDPs, no difference between the survival curves of these groups was observed. Success differed between cFDPs and ncFDPs (pLog = 0.002), zirconia and metal frameworks (pLog < 0.001), and provisional and definitive cements (pLog = 0.025). The effects of the variables “framework material” and “attachment method” were confirmed in a mixed‐effects Cox regression model. Loss of retention was the predominant complication for both cFDPs and ncFDPs and usually affected provisionally cemented FDPs.ConclusionscFDPs do not differ from ncFDPs with regard to long‐term failure, whereas additional complications were higher for cFDPs. Fewer complications were observed for zirconia frameworks without occlusal veneers and definitive cemented FDPs.Clinical trial registration: the trial has no registration number because it commenced before January 31, 2017.

Published: August 2022

AbstractWe present a case of eosinophil‐rich linear IgA bullous disease (LABD) following the administration of a messenger RNA COVID‐19 booster vaccine. A 66‐year‐old man presented to the emergency department with a 3‐week history of a pruritic blistering rash characterized by fluid‐filled bullae and multiple annular and polycyclic plaques. He was initially diagnosed with bullous pemphigoid based on a biopsy showing a subepidermal blister with numerous eosinophils. However, direct immunofluorescence studies showed linear IgA and IgM deposition along the basement membrane zone with no immunoreactivity for C3 or IgG. Additionally, indirect immunofluorescence was positive for IgA basement membrane zone antibody. The patient was subsequently diagnosed with LABD and initiated on dapsone therapy with resolution of his lesions at 3‐month follow‐up. This case illustrates the growing number of autoimmune blistering adverse cutaneous reactions from vaccination. Dermatopathologists should be aware that features of autoimmune blistering diseases can overlap and may not be distinguishable based on these histopathological findings alone. Confirmation with direct immunofluorescence and/or serological studies may be necessary for accurate diagnosis.

Published: August 2022

AbstractAimFunctional trait‐based approach links the zooplankton community to the marine ecosystem functioning. It provides a comprehensive insight into the diversity of zooplankton ecological strategies but has rarely been used to characterize the zooplankton community in estuarine ecosystem. Here, we investigated the seasonality of mesozooplankton functional structure with respect to environmental changes in Changjiang River estuary (CRE) and its adjacent waters.LocationChangjiang River estuary and its adjacent waters.MethodsSamples were collected in three seasons of 2019. Morphologically identified species were assigned functional traits including body length, feeding strategy, trophic group, reproduction mode and habitat type, and clustered into functional groups. Taxonomic and functional diversity indices were calculated. The relative importance of the environmental variables in explaining the seasonality of functional structures was assessed.ResultsTen functional groups were identified, and functional structure showed strong seasonal dynamics. Current‐ and mixed‐feeding omnivore–herbivores were the predominant group over seasons. The contribution of carnivorous, detritivorous and omnivorous groups increased from winter–spring to autumn. The seasonality of zooplankton functional structure was mainly explained by the effect of temperature, fluvial discharge and warm current. Low temperature and riverine input of nutrient in winter–spring favoured the small‐sized herbivores. Subsequently, the rising temperature and run‐off in summer shifted the zooplankton community to larger herbivores and carnivores. Moderate temperature and relatively enhanced effect of warm current promoted the proliferation of carnivores and detritivores in autumn. Functional diversity also varied over seasons.Main conclusionsThe functional dynamics of mesozooplankton in CRE across estuarine gradient and seasonality is shaped by the seasonal variation of temperature, fluvial pulse and warm current intrusion. Our findings pave the way for further understanding estuarine biodiversity and have implications in conservation strategies.
A Gendered Counter‐archive: Mining and Resistance in Morocco
Authors: Salime Zakia 
Published: August 2022

ABSTRACTIn August 2011, thousands of villagers climbed Mount Alebban in Imider, southeast Morocco. They shut off the valve diverting water from the mountain's reservoir to a neighbouring silver mine. The villagers’ encampment on the mount lasted for eight years, withstanding state violence, prison sentences and political containment. Although Imider was considered a political protest camp, this article explores it through the notion of counter‐archive, defining the counter‐archive as a collective record keeping of disruption. The Imider camp is a counter‐archive in the sense that it enabled unauthorized stories to surface and radical politics to emerge. As a counter‐archive, it revealed the hidden links between politics and profit, extraction and dispossession, and life and death. As a forbidden space, the camp engaged in a quotidian performance of collective modes of living that resisted erasure through artwork, gendered spatial arrangements, storytelling and record making. The goal of the article is twofold: to illustrate the everyday making of this counter‐archive by analysing the modes of disruptive engagement of the villagers with the mine, and the new communities they have generated; and to show the soft spots of radical politics and its vulnerability in the context of neoliberal governance.
