description: Using the emergy analysis method, we conduct trend analysis of changes in the total emergy, input and output structure, various emergy indicators of agro-ecosystem in Hunan Province during the period 1999-2008. The results show that during the study period, total emergy input basically remained stable, but the emergy input structure was constantly optimized, of which the input of non-renewable industrial assistant emergy increased by 38.4%, from 4.00E+22 sej to 5.53E+22 sej, and the input of renewable organic emergy declined from 1.32E+23 sej to 1.20E+23 sej; total emergy yield and yield efficiency of this system were promoted dramatically, and in 2008, the total emergy yield reached 1.69E+23 sej, increasing by 23.8% as against that in 1999, the net emergy yield ratio rose from 0.79 to 0.96; since the environmental loading ratio also tended to rise constantly, from 1.12 to 1.79, the sustainability index of this system also experienced the slow downward trend, from 0.71 to 0.54, always less than 1, indicating that the agriculture in Hunan Province is the high consumption-driven ecosystem in general, with obvious features of extensive development.

description: Ginkgo biloba L. is a rare species endemic to China, strengthening the study of Ginkgo culture is of great significance to eco-economic development. This paper uses the historical research methods to study the Ginkgo and its cultural development process in China. According to the characteristics of the development of Ginkgo culture, the process can be divided into three stages: Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the Northern and Southern Dynasties (which is named theological era), Sui and Tang Dynasties to early Qing Dynasty (which is named the literature era), and the modern China which is named the scientific era. The history of Ginkgo culture is a history of Ginkgo being gradually recognized, and the Ginkgo culture’s connotation and extension are gradually deepened and developed. The construction of Ginkgo today’s culture should be in the inheritance of historical culture, and combined with the needs of the times comprehensive innovation, take the science and human harmonious development road.

description: Detailed studies of the Sun have shown that sunspots and solar flares are closely correlated. Photometric data from Kepler/K2 has allowed similar studies to be carried out on other stars. Here, we utilise TESS photometric 2-min cadence of 167 low mass stars from Sectors 1 - 3 to investigate the relationship between starspots and stellar flares. From our sample, 90 percent show clear rotational modulation likely due to the presence of a large, dominant starspot and we use this to determine a rotational period for each star. Additionally, each low mass star shows one or more flares in its lightcurve and using Gaia DR2 parallaxes and SkyMapper magnitudes we can estimate the energy of the flares in the TESS band-pass. Overall, we have 1834 flares from the 167 low mass stars with energies from $6.0\times 10^{29}$ - $2.4\times 10^{35}$~erg. We find none of the stars in our sample show any preference for rotational phase suggesting the lack of a correlation between the large, dominant star spot and flare number. We discuss this finding in greater detail and present further scenarios to account for the origin of flares on these low mass stars.

description: We analyze new sources of flavor violation in models with extra dimensions. We focus on three major classes of five dimensional models: models with universal extra dimension, models with split fermions, and models with warped extra dimension.We study the implications of these new sources on the associate CP violating asymmetries to the rare B-decays. We show that among these models only the split fermions scenario may accommodate the recent experimental deviation between the CP asymmetry of B_d -> phi K_S and sin 2 beta.

description: Ultracold neutrons (UCNs) are a useful tool for fundamental physics experiments. They can be used to probe the lifetime of free neutrons, search for new CP violating processes and exotic interactions beyond the Standard Model, perform Ramsey spectroscopy, and carry out neutron-optical interference experiments. All of these experiments require high neutron count rates for good statistics. For optimal exploitation of experimental beam time, these experiments need to be prepared and, at times, even simulated in advance. To this end, it is crucial to know the velocity-dependent UCN flux at each beam position. Knowing the absolute neutron flux also allows for an absolute calibration of previously gathered data. Using the same time-of-fight experimental setup, we have measured the differential neutron flux of three out of the four UCN beam ports at the PF2 instrument at Institut Laue--Langevin, Grenoble. These beam ports are commonly used for UCN flux experiments and proof-of-principle tests.

description: Currently, postdoctoral fellow (PDF) researchers in Canada face challenges due to the precarious nature of their employment and their overall low compensation and benefits coverage. This report presents three themes, written as statements of need, to support an inclusive and thriving PDF community. These themes are the need for better terms of employment and conditions, the need for access to grants by non-permanent research staff, and the need for a sustainable PDF hiring model that considers the outcomes for the PDFs. We make six recommendations: R1. PDFs should be hired and compensated as skilled experts in their areas, not as trainees. R2. Standard PDF hiring practices should be revised to be more inclusive of different life circumstances. - R2.1 Allow PDFs the option of part-time employment. - R2.2 Remove years-since-PhD time limits from PDF jobs. - R2.3 Financially support PDF hires for relocation and visa expenses. R3. CASCA should form a committee to advocate for and provide support to astronomy PDFs in Canada. R4. CASCA should encourage universities to create offices dedicated to their PDFs. R5. PDFs and other PhD-holding term researchers with a host institution should be able to compete for and win grants to self-fund their own research. R6. Astronomy in Canada should hire general-purpose continuing support scientist positions instead of term PDFs to fill project or mission-specific requirements. In short, we ask for prioritization of people over production of papers.

description: Objective: Given continued increases in “deaths of despair”, there is a need to examine associations of factors across multiple domains of despair (i.e. cognitive, emotional, behavioral, biological) with opioid-related behaviors. An understanding of current and early life correlates of prescription opioid behaviors can help inform clinical care, public health interventions, and future life course research. Methods: Using data from Waves I (1994–1995; participants ages 12–18 years) and V (2016–2018; participants ages 34–42 years) of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (N = 10,685), we examined adolescent and adult demographic, mental and physical health, substance use, and behavioral characteristics associated with past 30-day prescription opioid use only, misuse only, and both use and misuse to no recent use or misuse in adulthood. Results: Overall, 2.3% of adult participants reported past 30-day prescription opioid use only, 6.3% reported past 30-day misuse only, and 1.3% reported both prescribed use and misuse in the past 30 days. Physical health conditions in adolescence and adulthood were most common among those reporting use only and both use and misuse. Mental health conditions, other substance use, and delinquent behaviors in adolescence and adulthood were most common among those reporting misuse only and both use and misuse. Conclusions: Results from this nationally representative sample highlight the prevalence of specific prescription opioid behaviors and underscore the importance of targeting underlying drivers of prescription opioid use and misuse early in the life course. Continued implementation individual- and population-level approaches will be critical to addressing continued demand for opioids.

description: A partir da década de 1980, os investimentos em infra-estrutura foram reduzidos no Brasil, levando à redução na qualidade desses serviços e elevando custos para o setor produtivo. O objetivo deste artigo é identificar os setores de infra-estrutura, especificamente transporte, energia elétrica e comunicações, como setores chaves para o crescimento da economia. Para isso foram calculados os índices de Rasmussen-Hirschman e índices de dispersão para frente e para trás, a partir dos dados da matriz de insumo-produto de 1996. Os setores de transporte e energia elétrica são setores chaves pois apresentam índice de ligação para frente maior que um. O setor de comunicações não recebe essa classificação. Comparando os índices de 1985 com os resultados obtidos para o ano de 1996 percebe-se que o setor de transporte, que teve reduções de investimento, apresenta redução no índice de ligação para frente e o setor de comunicações, que teve crescimento nos investimentos, apresenta elevação desse índice.

Abstract:Effective data management is crucial for capturing and reusing research data, and a well-organized storage structure is essential for achieving this goal. Without a clear folder structure and a transparent filing system, data often becomes untraceable and difficult or impossible to locate. The poster addresses the role of good scientific practice and the FAIR criteria (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) in maintaining a well-organized digital workspace. Common problems that arise from poor data management will be discussed, along with strategies for avoiding them. The poster aims to provide a starting point for tidying up your digital workspace, and is relevant to researchers at all institutions, including the FBN in Dummerstorf, where they need to handle large amounts of data in their daily work.

description: The spectral signatures of the materials contained in hyperspectral images, also called endmembers (EM), can be significantly affected by variations in atmospheric, illumination or environmental conditions typically occurring within an image. Traditional spectral unmixing (SU) algorithms neglect the spectral variability of the endmembers, what propagates significant mismodeling errors throughout the whole unmixing process and compromises the quality of its results. Therefore, large efforts have been recently dedicated to mitigate the effects of spectral variability in SU. This resulted in the development of algorithms that incorporate different strategies to allow the EMs to vary within a hyperspectral image, using, for instance, sets of spectral signatures known a priori, Bayesian, parametric, or local EM models. Each of these approaches has different characteristics and underlying motivations. This paper presents a comprehensive literature review contextualizing both classic and recent approaches to solve this problem. We give a detailed evaluation of the sources of spectral variability and their effect in image spectra. Furthermore, we propose a new taxonomy that organizes existing works according to a practitioner's point of view, based on the necessary amount of supervision and on the computational cost they require. We also review methods used to construct spectral libraries (which are required by many SU techniques) based on the observed hyperspectral image, as well as algorithms for library augmentation and reduction. Finally, we conclude the paper with some discussions and an outline of possible future directions for the field.

The needs arise from a diverse set of science challenges that range from large-scale simulations of brain models to processing of extreme-scale experimental data sets. The ICEI project, which is in the process of creating a distributed infrastructure optimised for brain research, started to build-up a set of benchmarks that reflect the diversity of applications in this field. In this paper we analyse the performance of some selected benchmarks on an IBM POWER8 and Intel Skylake based systems with and without GPUs.

description: O Programa do Milho Híbrido criado pelo governo do Estado do Ceará é executado pela Secretaria de Desenvolvimento Rural desde o ano de 1999 até o presente momento, tem revelado um crescimento médio de 60% ao ano em sementes distribuídas. O objetivo geral deste estudo é analisar o programa de milho híbrido junto aos agricultores familiares considerando-se o nível tecnológico, a geração de emprego e renda no Estado do Ceará. A pesquisa foi realizada nos municípios com maiores produções de milho híbrido na região do Estado do Ceará (Iguatú, Milagres e Capistrano). Os dados utilizados foram obtidos junto aos produtores de milho, através de entrevistas diretas. Foram calculados os índices tecnológicos de cada tecnologia utilizada pelos produtores de milho híbrido e variedade. Para comparar os níveis tecnológicos adotados pelos produtores de milho foram definidos três padrões tecnológicos: padrão I: se 0,80 < índice tecnológico < 1,00; padrão II; se 0,50 < índice tecnológico < 0,80 e padrão III; se 0,0 < índice tecnológico < 0,50. Os resultados da pesquisa permitem concluir que a maioria dos produtores de milho híbrido e variedade da amostra total são analfabetos ou possuem ensino fundamental incompleto, e está associado às cooperativas ou sindicatos ou associações. Considerando a tecnologia de preparo de solo, a maioria dos produtores de milho híbrido está no padrão III de tecnologia. No caso de tecnologia de semente, a grande maioria dos produtores de milho híbrido e milho variedade está nos padrões I e III da tecnologia, respectivamente. A renda média, por hectare, com milho híbrido em todos os municípios é superior a do milho variedade, o que reflete as maiores produtividades deste tipo de milho. O incremento na renda, em razão da substituição da área do milho variedade por milho híbrido é elevado.

description: In this thesis, we study the well-posedness of the modified and generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations on the one-dimensional torus. We first consider the complex-valued modified Korteweg-de Vries equation (mKdV). We observe that the momentum, a formally conserved quantity of the equation, plays a crucial role in the well-posedness theory. In particular, following the method by Guo-Oh (2018), we show the ill-posedness of the complex-valued mKdV, in the sense of non-existence of solutions, when the momentum is infinite. This result motivates the introduction of a novel renormalization of the equation, which we propose as the correct model to study at low regularity. Moreover, we establish the global well-posedness of the renormalized equation in the Fourier-Lebesgue spaces following two approaches: the Fourier restriction norm method and the recent method by Deng-Nahmod-Yue (2020). Lastly, by imposing a new notion of finite momentum at low regularity, we show the existence of distributional solutions to the original equation, with the nonlinearity interpreted in a limiting sense. Regarding the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equations (gKdV), we present a joint work with N. Kishimoto (RIMS, Kyoto University) on the well-posedness with Gibbs initial data. To bypass the analytical ill-posedness of gKdV in the Sobolev support of the Gibbs measure, we prove local well-posedness in the Fourier-Lebesgue spaces. Key ingredients are novel bilinear and trilinear Strichartz estimates adapted to the Fourier-Lebesgue setting. Finally, by applying Bourgain’s invariant measure argument (1994), we construct almost sure global-in-time dynamics and show the invariance of the Gibbs measure for gKdV.

description: O Programa do Milho Híbrido criado pelo governo do Estado do Ceará é executado pela Secretaria de Desenvolvimento Rural desde o ano de 1999 até o presente momento, tem revelado um crescimento médio de 60% ao ano em sementes distribuídas. O objetivo geral deste estudo é analisar o programa de milho híbrido junto aos agricultores familiares considerando-se o nível tecnológico, a rentabilidade no Estado do Ceará. A pesquisa foi realizada nos municípios com maiores produções de milho híbrido na região do Estado do Ceará (Iguatú, Milagres e Capistrano). Os dados utilizados foram obtidos junto aos produtores de milho, através de entrevistas diretas. Foram calculados os índices tecnológicos de cada tecnologia e conjunto de tecnologias utilizado pelos produtores de milho híbrido e variedade. Foram calculados os indicadores de rentabilidade como margem bruta, lucro operacional e índices de lucratividade. Os resultados da pesquisa permitem concluir que para a amostra total as tecnologias de controle de mato, semente, e desbaste apresentaram maior contribuição no índice tecnológico geral da produção de milho híbrido e milho variedade, enquanto a tecnologia de pós-colheita teve menor participação neste índice. Não há diferença no nível tecnológico médio dos produtores nos municípios de Iguatú e Milagres, Capistrano e Milagres, Capistrano e Iguatú. A renda média, por hectare, com milho híbrido em todos os municípios é superior a do milho variedade, o que reflete as maiores produtividades deste tipo de milho. Os indicadores de rentabilidade mostram que as culturas de milho híbrido e milho variedade são rentáveis. Entretanto, o plantio de milho híbrido tem maior índice de lucratividade em relação ao cultivo de milho variedade.

description: Objectives: Alcohol use remains a public health concern with accumulating evidence pointing to alcohol-associated prospective memory (PM) deficits. PM is the cognitive ability to remember to perform an intended action at some point in the future. Following PRISMA guidelines, we searched the evidence base to identify and explore the evidence of a relationship between alcohol use and PM. Methods: We conducted a systematic literature search in Medline, Embase, Pubmed, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Web of Science databases. Studies were included if they met the following criteria: English language publication, healthy adult participants (16 years and over), primary data on the effects of alcohol on PM. Results: Eight peer-reviewed studies were eligible for inclusion, of which five were randomized controlled trials examining the acute effects of a mild dose of alcohol and three were cross-sectional studies assessing the long-term effects of different drinking patterns on PM. Four main findings were supported by the literature: (1) compared with placebo, an acute administration of a mild alcohol dose to healthy social drinkers may lead to poorer PM performance, (2) alcohol consumption over the recommended weekly units can be associated with impaired PM function, (3) other cognitive domains can play a contributing role in alcohol-induced PM impairment, and (4) following future event simulation alcohol-induced PM impairment may be improved. Conclusion: Alcohol consumption potentially impairs PM, even at a low modest dose. Considering the small number of studies and their methodological flaws, additional research is needed to decipher the alcohol-PM relationship and provide further supporting evidence.

description: We examine whether massive binary black holes in spherically symmetric bulges of galaxies can achieve coalescence through the emission of gravitational radiation under the action of stellar dynamical processes alone. In particular, we address the importance of the Brownian motion of a binary's center-of-mass to its continued interaction with stellar orbits that allows it to keep hardening: the restoring force holding the binary at the center decreases as it depletes the central stellar density, causing the amplitude of wandering to increase. We use an analytical model and N-body simulations to calculate the time required to reach the gravitational-radiation dominated stage. We find that a substantial fraction of all massive binaries in galaxies can coalesce within a Hubble time.

description: It was recently shown that string theory on $\mathrm{AdS}_3 \times \mathrm{S}^3 \times \mathbb{T}^4$ with minimal NS-NS flux ($k = 1$) is exactly dual to the symmetric orbifold of T4. Here we show that a similar statement also holds for the $D_n$ orbifolds of these backgrounds that have $\mathcal{N} = (2, 2)$ supersymmetry. In this case the CFT dual is the symmetric orbifold of $\mathbb{T}^4/D_n$.

Cartilage Hair Hypoplasia

description: RMRP is a nuclear gene that encodes the RNA component of the endoribonuclease complex RNase MRP. Mutations in human RMRP cause a spectrum of disorders characterised by skeletal defects, hair anomalies and immunodeficiency. RNase MRP has an evolutionarily conserved role cleaving pre-ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and several other functions have also been proposed. However, why RMRP mutations cause disease is unknown. To look for potential novel targets of RNase MRP, RNAs interacting with protein components of the complex were mapped by the technique of cross-linking and analysis of cDNAs (CRAC). This revealed interactions near the known cleavage site in yeast pre-rRNA. The same experiment in human cells unexpectedly only detected interactions with RNA components of the complex, rather than potential targets. It has previously been shown that CRISPR-mediated disruption of RMRP in immortalised cell lines causes a pre-rRNA processing defect. Here, this result was confirmed in primary mouse T cells, which additionally showed impaired proliferation when RMRP was non-specifically mutated. To answer whether disease-causing mutations also cause this phenotype, a human cell line carrying the most common patient mutation was generated with CRISPR. This showed a growth defect accompanied by an accumulation of 41S precursor rRNA and reduced mature rRNA per cell. A similar rRNA processing phenotype was also found in CHH patient fibroblasts. Finally, the RNA-bound proteome of RMRP-mutant cells was mapped by the recently developed technique of Total RNA-bound Protein Purification (TRAPP). This confirmed that mutant cells have reduced cytosolic ribosomes relative to their mitochondrial ribosomal pool, and reduced intact RNase MRP complexes. In summary, these results support the model that mutations in RMRP cause disease by inhibiting ribosome synthesis.

description: The U.S. cotton industry is highly dependent on foreign markets. It is important for the U.S. industry to remain competitive with foreign suppliers such as Brazil, India and Uzbekistan. One of the major factors that will affect the efficiency, distribution and competitiveness of U.S. cotton will be the expansion of the Panama Canal. With sea freight the fastest growing mode of transportation, the number and size of vessels that are able to pass through the Canal will increase after the expansion is completed in 2014. In summary, taking into account the cost structure, transit time, and the Panama Canal tolls, when compared to the intermodal option, the expansion is expected to reduce maritime costs for shipments from the East Coast ports (e.g. Savannah port) to East Asia (China) by about $140/TEU, a 28 percent reduction of the current total cost of $490/TEU. A spatial, intertemporal equilibrium model of the international cotton sector was utilized to evaluate the effects of the expansion on the world cotton industry, with more emphasis given to the U.S. cotton industry. By assuming that the canal expansion will be completed in 2014, three scenarios assuming different reductions in ocean freight rates from the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic ports to Asian and Pacific importing countries are analyzed. In general, all scenarios suggested that cotton exports to Gulf and Atlantic ports would increase considerably with the port of Savannah leading the way. On the other hand, the Long Beach – Los Angeles ports would decrease its participation in total U.S. cotton exports significantly. Overall, the percentage of U.S. cotton exports via the Panama Canal relative to the total U.S. cotton exports would increase. Furthermore, total U.S. cotton exports were expected to increase due to the expansion. However, in relative terms, the maximum amount which the U.S. total exports would increase is equivalent to a 2.2 percent increase. As for the other competing countries, for all analyzed scenarios, these losses in exports, prices, and revenues are very modest in relative terms.
