description: Red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) are an invasive pest that contribute to the decline of native animals in Australia. Foxes are found in particularly high densities in cities, where the vast majority of Australia's human population resides. It is important to examine whether these urban-adapted pests are carriers of pathogens that may impact the health of humans and other animals. To understand the role that foxes may play as hosts of disease we used a meta-transcriptomic approach to describe the virome of the red fox. RNA from foxes and their ectoparasites were sequenced to reveal viromes of both urban and rural foxes from the Greater Sydney region. Foxes were found to harbour novel viruses including those from the Astroviridae, Picobirnaviridae, Hepeviridae and Picornaviridae. Rabbit haemorrhagic disease virus-2 was also found. Virome structure differed remarkably between urban and rural foxes, and rural foxes harboured a greater abundance of viruses compared to urban foxes. Overall, this study revealed Sydney's foxes are hosts to a wide diversity of viruses, some of which are close genetic relatives of viruses that infect domestic pets and humans. With continual rapid urbanisation, this finding highlights the need for research on wildlife diseases in urban landscapes.

description: We initiate a complexity theoretic study of the language based graph reachability problem (L-REACH) : Fix a language L. Given a graph whose edges are labeled with alphabet symbols of the language L and two special vertices s and t, test if there is path P from s to t in the graph such that the concatenation of the symbols seen from s to t in the path P forms a string in the language L. We study variants of this problem with different graph classes and different language classes and obtain complexity theoretic characterizations for all of them. Our main results are the following: 1.Restricting the language using formal language theory we show that the complexity of L-REACH increases with the power of the formal language class. We show that there is a regular language for which the L-REACH is NL-complete even for undirected graphs. In the case of linear languages, the complexity of L-REACH does not go beyond the complexity of L itself. Further, there is a deterministic context-free language L for which L-DAGREACH is LogCFL-complete. 2.We use L-REACH as a lens to study structural complexity. In this direction we show that there is a language A in TC0 for which A-DAGREACH is NP-complete. Using this we show that P vs NP question is equivalent to P vs DAGREACH-1(P) question. This leads to the intriguing possibility that by proving DAGREACH-1(P) is contained in some subclass of P, we can prove an upward translation of separation of complexity classes. Note that we do not know a way to upward translate the separation of complexity classes.

description: Path integral implementation of the quantum instanton approximation currently belongs among the most accurate methods for computing quantum rate constants and kinetic isotope effects, but its use has been limited due to the rather high computational cost. Here we demonstrate that the efficiency of quantum instanton calculations of the kinetic isotope effects can be increased by orders of magnitude by combining two approaches: The convergence to the quantum limit is accelerated by employing high-order path integral factorizations of the Boltzmann operator, while the statistical convergence is improved by implementing virial estimators for relevant quantities. After deriving several new virial estimators for the high-order factorization and evaluating the resulting increase in efficiency, using $\mathrm{\cdot H_α+H_βH_γ\rightarrow H_αH_β+\cdot H_{γ}}$ reaction as an example, we apply the proposed method to obtain several kinetic isotope effects on $\mathrm{CH_{4}+\cdot H\rightleftharpoons\cdot CH_{3}+H_{2}}$ forward and backward reactions.

description: Airway epithelial cells function as both a physical barrier against harmful substances and pathogenic microorganisms and as an important participant in the innate immune system. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) plays a crucial role in modulating inflammatory responses during respiratory infections. However, the signalling cascade that induces MMP-9 secretion from epithelial cells infected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of MMP-9 secretion in airway epithelial cells infected with M. pneumoniae. Our data clearly showed that M. pneumoniae induced the secretion of MMP-9 from bronchial epithelial cells and upregulated its enzymatic activity in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Using specific inhibitors and chromatin co-precipitation experiments, we confirmed that the expression of MMP-9 is reliant on the activation of the Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) and TLR6-dependent mitogen-activated protein kinase/nuclear factor- κB/activator protein-1 (MAPK/NF-κB/AP-1) pathways. Additionally, epigenetic modifications such as histone acetylation and the nuclear transcription factor Sp1 also regulate MMP-9 expression. M. pneumoniae infection also decreased the expression of the tumour suppressor reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) by inducing Sp1 phosphorylation. Overexpression of RECK significantly impaired the M. pneumoniae-triggered increase in MMP-9 enzymatic activity, although the level of MMP-9 protein remained constant. The study demonstrated that M. pneumoniae-triggered MMP-9 expression is modulated by TLR2 and 6, the MAPK/NF-κB/AP-1 signalling cascade, and histone acetylation, and M. pneumoniae downregulated the expression of RECK, thereby increasing MMP-9 activity to modulate the inflammatory response, which could play a role in airway remodelling.

description: The serine protease autotransporters of the Enterobacteriaceae (SPATEs) are a large family of virulence factors commonly found in enteric bacteria. These secreted virulence factors have diverse functions during bacterial infection, including adhesion, aggregation and cell toxicity. One such SPATE, the Pic mucinase (protein involved in colonisation) cleaves mucin, allowing enteric bacterial cells to utilise mucin as a carbon source and to penetrate the gut mucus lining, thereby increasing mucosal colonisation. The pic gene is widely distributed within the Enterobacteriaceae, being found in human pathogens, such as enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC), uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) and Shigella flexneri 2a. As the pic promoter regions from EAEC strain 042 and UPEC strain CFT073 differ, we have investigated the regulation of each promoter. Here, using in vivo and in vitro techniques, we show that both promoters are activated by the global transcription factor, CRP (cyclic AMP receptor protein), but the architectures of the EAEC and the UPEC pic promoter differ. Expression from both pic promoters is repressed by the nucleoid-associated factor, Fis, and maximal promoter activity occurs when cells are grown in minimal medium. As CRP activates transcription in conditions of nutrient depletion, whilst Fis levels are maximal in nutrient-rich environments, the regulation of the EAEC and UPEC pic promoters is consistent with Pic’s nutritional role in scavenging mucin as a suitable carbon source during colonisation and infection.

description: When a liquid film of colloidal solution consisting of particles of different sizes is dried on a substrate, the colloids often stratify, where smaller colloids are laid upon larger colloids. This phenomenon is counter intuitive because larger colloids which have smaller diffusion constant are expected to remain near the surface during the drying process, leaving the layer of larger colloids on top of smaller colloids. Here we show that the phenomenon is caused by the interaction between the colloids, and can be explained by the diffusion model which accounts for the interaction between the colloids. By studying the evolution equation both numerically and analytically, we derive the condition at which the stratified structures are obtained.

description: Bacterial pathogens have a critical impact on aquaculture, a sector that accounts for half of the human fish consumption. Flavobacterium psychrophilum (phylum Bacteroidetes) is responsible for bacterial cold-water disease in salmonids worldwide. The molecular factors involved in host invasion, colonization and haemorrhagic septicaemia are mostly unknown. In this study, we identified two new TonB-dependent receptors, HfpR and BfpR, that are required for adaptation to iron conditions encountered during infection and for virulence in rainbow trout. Transcriptional analyses revealed that their expression is tightly controlled and upregulated under specific iron sources and concentrations. Characterization of deletion mutants showed that they act without redundancy: BfpR is required for optimal growth in the presence of high haemoglobin level, while HfpR confers the capacity to acquire nutrient iron from haem or haemoglobin under iron scarcity. The gene hfpY, co-transcribed with hfpR, encodes a protein related to the HmuY family. We demonstrated that HfpY binds haem and contributes significantly to host colonization and disease severity. Overall, these results are consistent with a model in which both BfpR and Hfp systems promote haem uptake and respond to distinct signals to adapt iron acquisition to the different stages of pathogenesis. Our findings give insight into the molecular basis of pathogenicity of a serious pathogen belonging to the understudied family Flavobacteriaceae and point to the newly identified haem receptors as promising targets for antibacterial development.

description: Accurate reconstructed series are crucial for studying the differences in regional hydroclimatic variations in Europe over the past millennium. Using hierarchical clustering analysis and stepwise regression methods, we reconstructed yearly time series of the summer standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) for six European regions over the past millennium. Our analysis also revealed prominent regional hydroclimatic differences in multidecadal signals over the past 500 years. For instance, in the 1500s–1570s (from the beginning of the 1500s to the end of the 1570s), drying trends were observed in northern and southeastern Europe, whereas southwestern Europe experienced a wetting trend. Moreover, drying trends were observed in northern and central Europe in the 1640s–1670s. Additionally, wetting trends were observed in western and central Europe during the 1830s–1850s, with drying trends in northern and southeastern Europe. Notably, the hydroclimatic variations in most European regions showed drying trends in the 1920s–1950s, especially in southern Europe. By utilizing large amounts of tree-ring samples and directly comparing regional hydroclimatic variations, our reconstructions provide a consistent and comprehensive dataset for further analysis. The reconstructed dataset is available at https://doi.org/10.57760/sciencedb.07215.

description: The success of loop quantum cosmology to resolve classical singularities of homogeneous models has led to its application to the classical Schwarszchild black hole interior, which takes the form of a homogeneous Kantowski-Sachs model. The first steps of this were done in pure quantum mechanical terms, hinting at the traversable character of the would-be classical singularity, and then others were performed using effective heuristic models capturing quantum effects that allowed a geometrical description closer to the classical one but avoided its singularity. However, the problem of establishing the link between the quantum and effective descriptions was left open. In this work, we propose to fill in this gap by considering the path-integral approach to the loop quantization of the Kantowski-Sachs model corresponding to the Schwarzschild black hole interior. We show that the transition amplitude can be expressed as a path integration over the imaginary exponential of an effective action which just coincides, under some simplifying assumptions, with the heuristic one. Additionally, we further explore the consequences of the effective dynamics. We prove first that such dynamics imply some rather simple bounds for phase-space variables, and in turn, remarkably, in an analytical way, they imply that various phase-space functions that were singular in the classical model are now well behaved. In particular, the expansion rate, its time derivative, and the shear become bounded, and hence the Raychaudhuri equation is finite term by term, thus resolving the singularities of classical geodesic congruences. Moreover, all effective scalar polynomial invariants turn out to be bounded.

description: Accurate path integral Monte Carlo or molecular dynamics calculations of isotope effects have until recently been expensive because of the necessity to reduce three types of errors present in such calculations: statistical errors due to sampling, path integral discretization errors, and thermodynamic integration errors. While the statistical errors can be reduced with virial estimators and path integral discretization errors with high-order factorization of the Boltzmann operator, here we propose a method for accelerating isotope effect calculations by eliminating the integration error. We show that the integration error can be removed entirely by changing particle masses stochastically during the calculation and by using a piecewise linear umbrella biasing potential. Moreover, we demonstrate numerically that this approach does not increase the statistical error. The resulting acceleration of isotope effect calculations is demonstrated on a model harmonic system and on deuterated species of methane.
Microphase Separation in Random Multiblock Copolymers

description: Microphase separation in random multiblock copolymers is studied with mean-field theory assuming that long blocks of a copolymer are strongly segregated, whereas short blocks are able to penetrate into "alien" domains and exchange between the domains and interfacial layer. A bidisperse copolymer with blocks of only two sizes (long and short) is considered as a model of multiblock copolymers with high polydispersity in the block size. Short blocks of the copolymer play an important role in microphase separation. First, their penetration into the "alien" domains leads to the formation of joint long blocks in their own domains. Second, short blocks localized at the interface considerably change the interfacial tension. The possibility of penetration of short blocks into the "alien" domains is controlled by the product chi*Nsh (chi is the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter, Nsh is the short block length). At not very large chi*Nsh, the domain size is larger than that for a regular copolymer consisting of the same long blocks as in the considered random copolymer. At a fixed mean block size, the domain size grows with an increase in the block size dispersity, the rate of the growth being dependent of the more detailed parameters of the block size distribution.

What does 'shared responsibility' mean for flood risk management in Australia?
Creators: name: Box, Pamela
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Floods are one of the most common natural hazards experienced in Australia. Approximately 250,000 properties in Australia are located within the 1 in 100 year flood zone. Floods are the costliest natural hazard, and have caused over 2,000 deaths. As population in flood-prone areas increases, and considering the potential impacts of climate change on flood frequency, preparing for floods will become increasingly important. Extensive flooding in recent years, particularly during the 2010-2011 summer, has again made flood risk an important topic of research. The concept of shared responsibility, that hazard preparedness is the job of all sectors of society and government, has been a central focus of post-disaster inquiries and government hazard strategies. This thesis examines how shared responsibility applies to flood risk management. Four key stakeholders were selected for this research: local councils, emergency services (the SES), the insurance industry, and residents. These stakeholders were selected as councils and emergency services are directly involved in flood planning and response, insurance has only recently become widely available in Australia, and residents are the people who experience floods on-the-ground. This thesis asks what gaps exist in flood risk management in Australia and what can be learnt from the recent floods to better implement shared resposnsibility. Four case studies are selected: Brisbane and Emerald in Queensland, both severely flooded during the 2010-2011 floods; Benalla in Victoria, and Dora Creek in New South Wales. Interviews were conducted with council, emergency service, and insurance representatives, examining their perceptions of their own and each others' roles and responsibilities, as well as their thoughts on individuals' responsibilities in preparing for flood. The influence of socioeconomic factors of age, gender, and income, as well as flood awareness and flood experience, on residents' thoughts on flood risk and insurance are also examined. Better understanding of the roles and responsibilities of each stakeholder is needed to improve flood risk management. This thesis finds that residents often expect more of official agencies such as council and emergency services, and are uncertain about personal preparation. For responsibility in flood risk management to be truly shared, individuals need to be encouraged to be more involved in their own flood preparedness.

description: A Moreton wave was detected in active region (AR) 12017 on 29 March 2014 with very high cadence with the Halpha Solar Telescope for Argentina (HASTA) in association with an X1.0 flare (SOL2014-03-29T17:48). Several other phenomena took place in connection with this event, such as low coronal waves and a coronal mass ejection (CME). We analyze the association between the Moreton wave and the EUV signatures observed with the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly onboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory. These include their low-coronal surface-imprint, and the signatures of the full wave and shock dome propagating outward in the corona. We also study their relation to the white-light CME. We perform a kinematic analysis by tracking the wavefronts in several directions. This analysis reveals a high-directional dependence of accelerations and speeds determined from data at various wavelengths. We speculate that a region of open magnetic field lines northward of our defined radiant point sets favorable conditions for the propagation of a coronal magnetohydrodynamic shock in this direction. The hypothesis that the Moreton wavefront is produced by a coronal shock-wave that pushes the chromosphere downward is supported by the high compression ratio in that region. Furthermore, we propose a 3D geometrical model to explain the observed wavefronts as the chromospheric and low-coronal traces of an expanding and outward-traveling bubble intersecting the Sun. The results of the model are in agreement with the coronal shock-wave being generated by a 3D piston that expands at the speed of the associated rising filament. The piston is attributed to the fast ejection of the filament-CME ensemble, also consistent with the good match between the speed profiles of the low-coronal and white-light shock-waves.

description: Renewable Energy Technologies (RETs) offer the potential for low-carbon electricity production. The true potential of RETs can be established by assessing their environmental impact and cost for a region, based on a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach. This Ph.D. thesis presents six contributions which analyse the environmental and economic benefit of RETs in specific regions. The first contribution is the LCA-based environmental effects evaluation of a solar-PV and a solar-thermal system. The second contribution is the environmental hazard estimation of existing hydro powerplants in Europe. The third contribution is the comparative environmental impact assessment of three different renewable-power plants, namely solar PV, biomass and pumped storage hydropower plants in the United States. The fourth contribution is the design and development of a new life-cycle inventory for solar PV, wind and hydro powerplants in Switzerland to evaluate life-cycle emissions and identify the best plant option. The fifth contribution is the development of an advanced power-routing framework for a solar PV-driven islanded microgrid. The final contribution of this research is the accomplishment of a Net-Present-Cost (NPC)-based optimization analysis and an LCA-based environmental-impact assessment of an off-grid microgrid framework. Overall, this work provides a clear identification of technologies which are environmentally-superior and cost-effective; thus allowing prioritisation of appropriate electricity production.

description: Bacillus cereus is an important opportunistic pathogen widely distributed in the environment. In this study, we reported the isolation and characterization of a B. cereus isolate, MB1, from the Challenger Deep of the Mariana Trench. MB1 is aerobic, motile, and able to form endospores. It possesses 5966 genes distributed on a circular chromosome and two plasmids. The MB1 genome contains 14 sets of 23S, 5S, and 16S ribosomal RNA operons, 106 tRNA genes, 4 sRNA genes, 12 genomic islands, 13 prophages, and 302 putative virulence genes, including enterotoxins and cytolysins. Infection studies showed that MB1 was able to cause acute and lethal infection in fish and mice, and was highly toxic to mammalian cells. MB1 induced, in a dose-dependent manner, pyroptotic cell death, characterized by activation of caspase-1, cleavage of gasdermin D, and release of IL-1β and IL-18. MB1 spores exhibited swimming and haemolytic capacity, but were severely attenuated in pathogenicity, which, however, was regained to the full extent when the spores germinated under suitable conditions. Taken together, these results provide new insights into the biological and pathogenic mechanism of deep sea B. cereus.

description: The magnetic properties of iron pnictide superconductors with magnetic rare-earth ions under strong magnetic field are investigated based on the cluster self-consistent field method. Starting from an effective Heisenberg model, we present the evolution of magnetic structures on magnetic field in RFeAsO (R=Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Gd and Tb) and RFe2As2 (R=Eu) compounds. It is found that spin-flop transition occurs in both rare-earth and iron layers under magnetic field, in good agreement with the experimental results. The interplay between rare-earth and iron spins plays a key role in the magnetic-field-driven magnetic phase transition, which suggests that the rare-earth layers can modulate the magnetic behaviors of iron layers. In addition, the factors that affect the critical magnetic field for spin-flop transition are also discussed.
