description: Monitoring of contaminants in fish generally involves lethal sampling, but public scrutiny and increased pressure on fisheries have driven the need to develop nonlethal sampling methods. We examined the ability of adipose, anal, and caudal fin tissues to serve as nonlethal surrogates for lethal muscle tissue samples in the analysis of metals (elements). First, we evaluated the use of biopsies by examining relationships between concentrations of 39 elements in low-volume dorsal muscle biopsies and high-volume muscle samples from Arctic Grayling Thymallus arcticus and Bull Trout Salvelinus confluentus collected in the South Nahanni River watershed, Northwest Territories, Canada. Low-volume dorsal biopsy samples in this study served to most closely model the concentrations of elements found in high-volume dorsal samples; caudal and anal fins were more representative of high-volume dorsal samples than were adipose fins. Regressions between high- and low-volume dorsal muscle samples were significant for 12 elements/species, with Cs, Rb, and Tl having the strongest relationships in both species. Regression analyses comparing low-volume muscle samples and fin samples revealed variation between Arctic Grayling and Bull Trout, but Co, Hg, and Tl concentrations among samples were strongly related for both species. Addition of fish length or age as a covariate did not greatly improve the predictive power of calculated regressions. For future monitoring, selection of a nonlethal sampling strategy (e.g., use of dorsal biopsy or adipose fin samples) will require consideration of the element of interest, the primary route of exposure, interaction with other elements, and the basic biology and ecology of the fish species. Ideally, nonlethal sampling tools can be further developed for the two species to promote inclusion of community partners; these tools offer sustainable, long-term approaches for monitoring sensitive fish populations in northern Canadian habitats.

description: Biomass burning has been identified as an important contributor to the degradation of air quality because of its impact on ozone and particulate matter. One component of the biomass burning inventory, crop residue burning, has been poorly characterized in the National Emissions Inventory (NEI). In the 2011 NEI, wildland fires, prescribed fires, and crop residue burning collectively were the largest source of PM2.5. This paper summarizes our 2014 NEI method to estimate crop residue burning emissions and grass/pasture burning emissions using remote sensing data and field information and literature-based, crop-specific emission factors. We focus on both the postharvest and pre-harvest burning that takes place with bluegrass, corn, cotton, rice, soybeans, sugarcane and wheat. Estimates for 2014 indicate that over the continental United States (CONUS), crop residue burning excluding all areas identified as Pasture/Grass, Grassland Herbaceous, and Pasture/Hay occurred over approximately 1.5 million acres of land and produced 19,600 short tons of PM2.5. For areas identified as Pasture/Grass, Grassland Herbaceous, and Pasture/Hay, biomass burning emissions occurred over approximately 1.6 million acres of land and produced 30,000 short tons of PM2.5. This estimate compares with the 2011 NEI and 2008 NEI as follows: 2008: 49,650 short tons and 2011: 141,180 short tons. Note that in the previous two NEIs rangeland burning was not well defined and so the comparison is not exact. The remote sensing data also provided verification of our existing diurnal profile for crop residue burning emissions used in chemical transport modeling. In addition, the entire database used to estimate this sector of emissions is available on EPA’s Clearinghouse for Inventories and Emission Factors (CHIEF, http://www3.epa.gov/ttn/chief/index.html).Implications: Estimates of crop residue burning and rangeland burning emissions can be improved by using satellite detections. Local information is helpful in distinguishing crop residue and rangeland burning from all other types of fires.

description: Purpose: To examine the associations of nerve fiber layer (NFL) thickness with other ocular characteristics in older adults. Methods: Participants in the Beaver Dam Eye Study (2008–2010) underwent spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) scans of the optic nerve head, imaging of optic discs, frequency doubling technology (FDT) perimetry, measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP), and an interview concerning their history of glaucoma and use of drops to lower eye pressure. Self-reported histories of glaucoma and the use of drops to lower eye pressure were obtained at follow-up examinations (2014–2016). Results: NFL thickness measured on OCTs varied by location around the optic nerve. Age was associated with mean NFL thickness. Mean NFL was thinnest in eyes with larger cup/disc (C/D) ratios. Horizontal hemifield defects or other optic nerve-field defects were associated with thinner NFL. NFL in persons who reported taking eye drops for high intraocular pressure was thinner compared to those not taking drops. After accounting for the presence of high intraocular pressure, large C/D ratios or hemifield defects, eyes with thinner NFL in the arcades were more likely (OR = 2.3 for 30 micron thinner NFL, p = 0.04) to have incident glaucoma at examination 5 years later. Conclusion: Retinal NFL thickness was associated with a new history of self-reported glaucoma 5 years later. A trial testing the usefulness of NFL as part of a screening battery for predicting glaucoma in those previously undiagnosed might lead to improved case finding and, ultimately, to diminishing the risk of visual field loss.

description: We present an increasingly stringent set of replications, a multilevel regression and poststratification analysis of polls from the 2008 U.S. presidential election campaign, focusing on a set of plots showing the estimated Republican vote share for whites and for all voters, as a function of income level in each of the states. We start with a nearly exact duplication that uses the posted code and changes only the model-fitting algorithm; we then replicate using already-analyzed data from 2004; and finally we set up preregistered replications using two surveys from 2008 that we had not previously looked at. We have already learned from our preliminary, nonpreregistered replication, which has revealed a potential problem with the earlier published analysis; it appears that our model may not sufficiently account for nonsampling error, and that some of the patterns presented in that earlier article may simply reflect noise. In addition to the substantive interest in validating earlier findings about demographics, geography, and voting, the present project serves as a demonstration of preregistration in a setting where the subject matter is historical (and thus the replication data exist before the preregistration plan is written) and where the analysis is exploratory (and thus a replication cannot be simply deemed successful or unsuccessful based on the statistical significance of some particular comparison). Our replication analysis produced graphs that showed the same general pattern of income and voting as we had found in our earlier published work, but with some differences in particular states that we cannot easily explain and which seem too large to be explained by sampling variation. This process thus demonstrates how replication can raise concerns about an earlier published result.

description: The role of copper in iron based Fischer–Tropsch catalysts was investigated using DFT with χ-Fe5C2(100)0.25 as a model surface. The presence of atomic copper on the iron-rich χ-Fe5C2(100)0.25-surface is more favorable than its presence in surface. Nevertheless, the segregation of copper from the surface yielding fcc-Cu remains an exergonic process. Carbon monoxide at a coverage of 2.2 CO per nm2 stabilizes atomic copper on this surface. The presence of copper results in the redshift in the stretching frequency of adsorbed CO. The mobility of copper atoms was investigated on χ-Fe5C2(100)0.25 in the presence of CO. The hopping frequency is reduced due to the presence of CO, although never enough to avoid formation of fcc-Cu on a shorter time scale than typically required for the formation of hydrocarbons in the Fischer–Tropsch synthesis.

description: Vanadium based catalysts supported on a mixture of tungsten and titanium oxide (V2O5/WO3–TiO2) are known to be highly active for ammonia selective catalytic reduction (NH3–SCR) of NOx species for heavy-duty mobile applications. However they are also known to be sensitive to high temperatures which leads to both sintering of the anatase TiO2 support and a first order phase transition to rutile at temperatures >600°C. Here we report our attempts to use SiO2 to stabilize the TiO2 anatase phase and to compare its catalytic activity with that of a non-stabilized V2O5/WO3–TiO2 catalyst after thermal aging up to 800°C. Detailed characterization using spectroscopic (Raman, UV–vis, X-ray absorption spectroscopy), scattering and techniques providing information on the catalytic surface (Brunauer–Emmet–Teller, NH3 adsorption) have also been performed in order to understand the impact of high temperatures on component speciation and the catalytic interface. Results show that non-stabilized V2O5/WO3–TiO2 catalysts are initially stable after thermal aging at 600°C but on heating above this temperature a marked drop in catalytic activity is observed as a result of sintering and phase transformation of Anatase into Rutile TiO2 and phase segregation of initially highly dispersed WO3 and polymeric V2O5 into monoclinic WO3 and V2O3 crystallites. Similar behavior was observed for the 4–5 wt-% of SiO2-stabilised sample after aging above 700°C, importantly therefore, offset by some ∼100°C in comparison to the unstabilised sample.

description: The chemical–physical environment around iron based FTS catalysts under working conditions is used to estimate the influences of carbon containing gases on the surface structures and stability of ε-Fe2C, χ-Fe5C2, θ-Fe3C and Fe4C from combined density functional theory and atomistic–thermodynamic studies. Higher carbon content gas has higher carburization ability; while higher temperature and lower pressure as well as higher H2/CO ratio can suppress carburization ability. Under wide ranging gas environment, ε-Fe2C, χ-Fe5C2 and θ-Fe3C have different morphologies, and the most stable non-stoichiometric termination changes from carbon-poor to carbon-rich (varying surface Fe/C ratio) upon the increase in ΔμC. The most stable surfaces of these carbides have similar surface bonding pattern, and their surface properties are related to some common phenomena of iron based catalysts. For these facets, χ-Fe5C2-(100)-2.25 is most favored for CO adsorption and CH4 formation, followed by θ-Fe3C-(010)-2.33, ε-Fe2C-(121)-2.00 and Fe4C-(100)-3.00, in line with surface work function and the charge of the surface carbon atoms.

description: This paper seeks to build a conceptual understanding of administrative morality, with subsidies in the hermeneutics of Schleiermacher. For this, we use comparative and divinatory hermeneutical methods, by analysis of administrative morality in different linguistic contexts, including the works of Aristotle, Politics and the Ethics to Nicômaco, Richard Rorty, Justice as an Enlarged Loyalty, and the legal-adminstration ministry of Jose Guilherme Giacomuzzi. Each context has provided us a substancial help for introducing a concept of administrative morality that reflects a broader context, understandable to a wide range of interperters. Concepts coming from all contextualization spheres, such as objective standards of conduct, equality, public interest, and honesty, transparency, loyalty, preparation, reliability and truthfulness, ssen as administrator duties, integrate our understanding of administrative morality. Finally, this paper shall emphasize that our understanding of administrative morality occurs in the light of the current Welfare State.

description: Kafirin films from two sorghum cultivars Dabar [low tannin (LT) 0.15 %] and Karamaka [high tannin (HT) 25.2%] were studied. Films at 42% glycerol with 0, 2 or 10% SA (salicylic acid) were fabricated. The ratio (random coils + alpha helices) / intermolecular beta sheets was the lowest for HT kafirin films except at 2% SA. In LT kafirin films, irrespective of SA level, strain at failure did not significantly change whereas it did in HT kafirin films from 2 to 10% SA. Strain at failure was the greatest in LT film except at 10 % SA. LT kafirin films were stronger than HT kafirin films due to interactions between kafirin proteins in the absence of tannins. The fracture surface of films was granular irrespective of the tannin and SA content. This study suggested that the physicochemical properties of kafirin films mainly depended on tannin content than on SA level.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Abstract:This study conducts joint analyses of GPS velocities, seismicity and topography in the north east of Tibet to examine the processes of shortening that occur at the surface and at depth. The north eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau is theorised to be an area of active northwards growth of the plateau (Tapponnier et al., 2001). Crustal shortening and thickening in the region is a far field effect of the India-Eurasia collision and appears to be mediated by several large, left lateral strike slip faults surrounding the Qaidam Basin (the Altyn Tagh, Kunlun and Haiyuan faults). Existing structural and kinematic models for deformation (eg Meyer et al., 1998; Yin et al., 2008) are examined in light of this new evidence and an alternative structural model for the Qaidam Basin is proposed, eliminating the need for a basin wide sub-horizontal decollment. Below the seismogenic limit of thrusting (around 20 km depth) it is speculated that deformation may well occur in a ductile manner.

description: Essential oils (EO) are being considered as possible alternatives to in-feed antibiotic growth promoters in pig nutrition. The effects of an EO mixture consisting of limonene, eugenol and pinene (10.0, 2.0, and 4.8 mg/kg diet, resp.) on gut physiology and ecology were studied in piglets. The experiment was conducted at low (commercial farm) and high hygienic conditions (experimental farm), to elucidate interactions between EO supplementation and husbandry methods. Piglets were weaned at 28 days of age, when they were offered either a control diet (C) or C with EO. Four piglets were sacrificed in each group on day 29, 30, 33 and 39. Digesta from the third distal part of the small intestine and from the colon were sampled and analysed for pH, dry matter, lactic acid, short chain fatty acids and ammonia concentrations. Enterobacteria, enterococci, lactobacilli and yeast counts were obtained by plating. Genomic DNA was extracted from digesta and polymerase chain reaction—denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis was performed. Individual microbial communities were identified at each farm. Age affected the intestinal parameters. No effects of the EO with exception for a significant reduction in colon bacterial diversity at 39 days of age could be recorded at experimental farm.

description: Magic Angle Spinning (MAS) dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is a hyperpolarization method whose relevance has been demonstrated in the elucidation and structural characterization of silica-based materials, polymorphs, zeolites, catalysts, or pharmaceuticals. The technique relies on the transfer of spin polarization from electron to nuclear spins upon microwave irradiation with theoretical maximum signal enhancement of ~658 for 1H nuclei at 100K. The optimal choice of the polarizing agent (PA) is key in MAS-DNP with currently the gold-standard bi-nitroxides AMUPol and TEKPol leading to enhancements of around 250 for 1H at 9.4T and 100K. Alternative PAs based on Mn(II) and Gd(III) complexes have also been demonstrated for MAS-DNP at high magnetic fields. Here we show for a set of bi-nitroxides systems that the local geometry around the N-O* region can lead to dramatic improvement on the MAS-DNP performance with HydrOPol (O-MPyPol(PEG)2OH) returning a 1H enhancement 𝜀C CP=330 at 9.4T and 100K in DMSOd6:D2O:H2O (6:3:1 v%): about a factor of 2 better than the current standard in the field and approaching the theoretical maximum. This result is possible by selecting the radical conformation with the nitroxide sidearms pointing away from the N-O* bond. In the case of Gd(III) complexes we also demonstrate that an optimal design parameter is the magnitude of the zero-field-splitting (ZFS)  values (D and E). By selecting the chelating ligand reducing the ZFS D parameter in [Gd(tpatcn)] we obtain a factor 2 improvement of MAS-DNP: a 1H enhancement 𝜀C CP=37 at 9.4T and 100K in glycerold8:D2O:H2O (6:3:1 v%) for [Gd(tpatcn)] vs 𝜀C CP=19 for [Gd(dota)(H2O)]-, so far the best Gd(III) complex in this field, under identical conditions. Importantly, the reduction of ZFS impacts quadratically on the expected MAS-DNP signal enhancement for high-spin complexes. Overall, by rational design of either the local geometry around the N-O* region in bi-nitroxide systems and of the chelating ligand in Gd(III) complexes we achieved the so far best reported enhancements at 9.4T and 100K for both bi-nitroxide systems and Gd(III) complexes while significantly improving on the current understanding and performance of MAS-DNP PAs.

description: The study investigates the determinants of financial inclusion of farmers in Ogba Local Government Area (ONELGA) of Rivers State, Nigeria. Data were collected with the aid of two sets of structured questionnaires. The data were analyzed with the use of descriptive statistics and binary logit regression analysis. The finding showed that 68.3% of the respondents were female, while 31.7% were male. Financial products and services mostly accessed by the respondents were SMS Alert, Savings account and Automated Teller machine (ATM) card. It was also found that farming status's coefficient is positive and significant at 10%, the coefficient of estimated annual income is also positive and significant at 10%. Same with the coefficient of educational status, positive and significant at 1%. The major constraints to accessing financial products and services among others were observed to be high interest rate on loan, poor banking services and long queues at ATM. The study recommends that the Central Bank of Nigeria, in collaboration with the government, should monitor banks' interest rates on loans in order to discourage high interest, and also regulate banks to be providing services that yield high level of customer satisfaction. Because educational status is a significant factor of financial inclusion, government should provide an enabling environment for education to those who are less privileged to assist them.

description: Wireless systems have advanced to support ever-growing demands for high data rates in every generation. While the data rate will remain a key metric, next-generation wireless systems will be more versatile, incorporating additional functionalities such as computing and sensing. Particularly, the integration of sensing and communication has attracted interest due to its potential to enable new applications such as precision agriculture, extended reality, and robotics. At the core of this transition is multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology, which is critical to both sensing and communications. Moreover, the exploration of the upper mid-band and mmWave, in conjunction with an increasing number of antennas, promises higher throughput and accurate sensing, but also poses new technological challenges. In this dissertation, we address these challenges by exploring advanced MIMO signaling techniques for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) over wireless networks. First, we study the integration of sensor and channel data for predicting beamforming in air-to-ground massive MIMO communication. We show that sensor measurements obtained from on-board sensors like the inertial measurement unit (IMU) and Global Positioning System (GPS), combined with channel state information (CSI), enhance the UAV’s motion and beam predictions. Next, we explore the design of constant modulus waveforms for radar-centric ISAC systems, to address the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) constraint. To improve the space-time resolution of the designed waveform, we propose the joint optimization of the ambiguity function and beampattern, which is crucial for many radar applications like positioning and imaging. Then, we propose a low-complexity ISAC waveform design strategy, called the spatial-division ISAC waveform. The proposed SD-ISAC method separates the communication and sensing waveform design tasks, even in the joint transmission regime, offering advantages such as low complexity and high compatibility with traditional algorithms. Lastly, we propose a joint polarimetric and communication framework, which extends the ISAC paradigm into the polarization domain. Specifically, we study the use of polarization-reconfigurable antennas to adapt to polarization mismatch in both sensing and communication channels.

description: Schizophrenia involves neural catecholaminergic dysregulation. Tyrosine is the precursor of catecholamines, and its major transporter, according to studies on fibroblasts, in the brain is the L-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1). The present study assessed haplotype tag single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the SLC7A5/LAT1 gene in 315 patients with psychosis within the schizophrenia spectrum and 233 healthy controls to investigate genetic vulnerability to the disorder as well as genetic relationships to homovanillic acid (HVA) and 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylglycol (MHPG), the major catecholamine metabolites in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Moreover, the involvement of the different isoforms of the system L in tyrosine uptake and LAT1 tyrosine kinetics were studied in fibroblast cell lines of 10 patients with schizophrenia and 10 healthy controls. The results provide suggestive evidence of individual vulnerability to schizophrenia related to the LAT1 SNP rs9936204 genotype. A number of SNPs were nominally associated with CSF HVA and MHPG concentrations but did not survive correction for multiple testing. The LAT1 isoform was confirmed as the major tyrosine transporter in patients with schizophrenia. However, the kinetic parameters (maximal transport capacity, affinity of the binding sites, and diffusion constant of tyrosine transport through the LAT1 isoform) did not differ between patients with schizophrenia and controls. The present genetic findings call for independent replication in larger samples, while the functional study seems to exclude a role of LAT1 in the aberrant transport of tyrosine in fibroblasts of patients with schizophrenia.
