Habitat use in a population of mainland Tasmanian feral cats, Felis catus
Creators: name: Schwarz, E
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This study examined various aspects of the spatial ecology and diet of a mainland Tasmanian population of feral domestic cats, Felis catus, to provide data relevant to planning and implementing feral cat control programs. Radio telemetry was used to quantify home ranges in three cats, two males and one female. Home ranges were relatively small for wild living feral cats, mean range area being 125 ha for males and 35 hectares for females. Home range size varied seasonally in males but not in females. Increases in male home range area, unusual movements and changes in den use occurred in July and August indicating this to be the mating season. Male cats ranged widely in search of receptive females. Home range overlap varied extensively depending on sex and season. Inter-sexual overlap was extensive, all cats overlapped with at least one cat of the opposite sex. Intra-sexual overlap between males varied between the non-mating and mating season. Overlap was extensive in the non-mating season with adult males sharing core areas. However, overlap in the mating season was minimal and restricted to the edges of ranges. This suggested that seasonal territoriality occurred between the males in response to competition for a limited number of female cats. Feral cats exhibited habitat preferences favouring habitats which included at least some ground cover and avoiding habitat where ground cover was absent, even where prey was abundant. Patchy type habitats were the most utilised and was favoured for foraging activity. This reflected prey availability in those areas, and the cover which the habitat provides for hunting. Dense habitat was favoured for the location of den sites. The feral cats at Sandford were active throughout the period between dusk and dawn, while little activity occurred during the day. Distances travelled per hour were greatest at dawn and dusk, probably indicating that the (male) cats were moving to and from foraging areas as opposed to actively hunting. Hunting probably occurs throughout the night, as the main prey species were nocturnal not crepuscular. The diet of the feral cats at Sandford was dominated by introduced mammals, in particular rabbits. However, diet did not reflect prey availability. The occurrence of ~mall native mammals in the diet was not consistent with their apparent abundance in the study area. This indicated that cats may selectively prey on these species. The study concluded that the control of feral cat populations on a large scale in mainland Tasmania is not justifiable. However, selective control may be necessary and beneficial in special cases, such as to protect seabird rookeries and vulnerable or endangered populations of native animals.
Linear optical stabilization and representation of multi-machine power systems
Creators: name: Moussa, Hamdy Aly Mohammed
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Linear optimal regulators have been designed for power system stabilization by introducing control signals to voltage regulators and/or governors. A new technique is developed in this thesis to determine the state weighting matrix Q of the regulator performance function with a dominant eigenvalue shift of the closed loop optimal system. The technique is used to investigate the stabilization of a typical one-machine infinite system and a multi-machine system with different stabilization schemes. The objective is to find the best way to stabilize a power system. An optimally sensitive controller is also developed to offset the effects of the changing system operating conditions on the effort of the stabilizing signal. The controller automatically adjusts its gains so that it always provides the system with the optimum stabilizing signal. A new multi-machine state variable formulation, necessary for these studies, is developed. It requires minimum computations and retains all the parameter information for sensitivity studies. An exact representation of synchronous machines is investigated and test methods are suggested for the determination of exact circuit parameters.

description: We study the consequences of an extension of the standard model containing an invisible extra gauge group under which the SM particles are neutral. We show that effective operators, generated by loops of heavy chiral fermions charged under both gauge groups and connecting the new gauge sector to the Standard Model, can give rise to a viable dark matter candidate. Its annihilations produce clean visible signals through a gamma-ray line. This would be a smoking gun signature of such models observable by actual experiments.

Abstract:

Meta-coherence indexing is a new framework for understanding how theories gain epistemic legitimacy across search engines, large language models, and semantic infrastructure. Unlike traditional peer review or citation count, this method explains why only structurally coherent models—those with recursive logic, contrast framing, and cross-domain consistency—survive and propagate. The paper introduces the method, defines its falsifiability, and uses the rise of CODES (Chirality of Dynamic Emergent Systems) as a case study in how structural resonance can phase-lock across digital knowledge ecosystems. This is not SEO. It is truth propagation engineering for the age of computational cognition.

The demand for gaming in Australia: An application of quaids
Creators: name: Decker, M
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: A theoretical model is developed, which resolves the conflict between observed gaming behaviour and Neoclassical rational agent theory. This model provides testable hypotheses regarding the participation in various types of gaming activities and the welfare effects of taxation on gaming. The demographic and socio-economic determinants of demand for gaming in Australia are measured using the parametric QUAIDS model. Based on the econometric results, the regressivity of gaming taxes is calculated using income elasticities of the budget share of gaming expenditures. Results obtained provide strong support for the theoretical model, and provide evidence to support the position that reliance upon gaming taxation receipts by Australian State Governments may lead to an increasingly regressive State based taxation system.

Dissecting the string theory dual of QCD

description: Input from QCD and string theory is used in order to elucidate basic features of the string theory dual of QCD, It is argued that the relevant string theory is a five-dimensional version of the type-0 superstring. The vacuum solution is asymptotically AdS$_5$, and the geometry near the boundary is stringy. The structure of YM perturbation theory however emerges near the boundary. In the IR, the theory is argued to be well-approximated by a two-derivative truncation that takes into account strong coupling effects. This explains the success of previously proposed five-dimensional Eistein-dilaton gravity with an appropriate potential to describe salient features of the strong YM dynamics.

description: The report completed a review of previous cultural resources studies and archaeological and historic architectural within 0.25 mile of the proposed logistics facility project area. No archaeological sites were identified within the archaeological APE. Due to prior disturbances, lack of soil integrity, and absence of previously recorded historic properties, HDR recommends no further cultural resources work within the archaeological and architectural APE. The report identified 23 previously recorded architectural resources located within the architectural APE (none of which overlap the archaeological APE), including one rail-related NRHP-eligible building (Building 3135). The report concluded that the project as proposed has no potential to diminish the integrity of architectural historic properties.
A goodness-of-fit test for parametric and semi-parametric models in multiresponse regression
Creators: name: Chen, Song Xi

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We propose an empirical likelihood test that is able to test the goodness of fit of a class of parametric and semi-parametric multiresponse regression models. The class includes as special cases fully parametric models; semi-parametric models, like the multiindex and the partially linear models; and models with shape constraints. Another feature of the test is that it allows both the response variable and the covariate be multivariate, which means that multiple regression curves can be tested simultaneously. The test also allows the presence of infinite-dimensional nuisance functions in the model to be tested. It is shown that the empirical likelihood test statistic is asymptotically normally distributed under certain mild conditions and permits a wild bootstrap calibration. Despite the large size of the class of models to be considered, the empirical likelihood test enjoys good power properties against departures from a hypothesized model within the class.

title:  Competition and Environment: Conflict or Confluence? Some reflections on sustainability agreements under Article 101(3) of the TFEU
Creators: name: De Leonardis, Francesco

publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/05vf0dg29

Year: 2024

description: The article is based on an analysis of Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). This provision sets out the general rule of the prohibition of agreements between companies that may distort competition, with an exception for agreements that contribute to improving the production of products. The author, based on international and European provisions, proposes an interpretation of ‘production improvement’ also in an environmental sense. This interpretation could justify agreements between companies that, while contrary to the application of competition principles, move towards sustainable production (so-called sustainability agreements), even if they do not reflect the application of the competition principle. The competition principle emerges clearly in the Italian Environmental Code and is applied in waste regulation and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) systems. The author believes that this principle, on the one hand, is crucial to encourage sustainable production and economic efficiency but, on the other hand, should not be considered an absolute principle. Indeed, sustainable production requires exceptions to the principle itself, but only to the strict extent necessary.

description: The solar tachocline at the bottom of the convection zone is an important region for the dynamics of the Sun and the solar dynamo. In this region, the sound speed inferred by global helioseismology exhibits a bump of approximately 0.4% relative to the standard solar model. Global helioseismology does not provide any information on possible latitudinal variations or asymmetries between the Northern and Southern hemisphere. Here, we develop a time-distance helioseismology technique, including surface- and deep-focusing measurement schemes and a combination of both, for two-dimensional tomographic imaging of the solar tachocline that infers radial and latitudinal variations in the sound speed. We test the technique using artificial solar oscillation data obtained from numerical simulations. The technique successfully recovers major features of the simplified tachocline models. The technique is then applied to SOHO/MDI medium-l data and provides for the first time a full two-dimensional sound-speed perturbation image of the solar tachocline. The one-dimensional radial profile obtained by latitudinal averaging of the image is in good agreement with the previous global helioseismology result. It is found that the amplitude of the sound-speed perturbation at the tachocline varies with latitude, but it is not clear whether this is in part or fully an effect of instrumental distortion. Our initial results demonstrate that time-distance helioseismology can be used to probe the deep interior structure of the Sun, including the solar tachocline.

description: We study the time variations of the cycles of 20 active stars based on decades-long photometric or spectroscopic observations. A method of time-frequency analysis, as discussed in a companion paper, is applied to the data. Fifteen stars definitely show multiple cycles; the records of the rest are too short to verify a timescale for a second cycle. The cycles typically show systematic changes. For three stars, we found two cycles in each of them that are not harmonics, and which vary in parallel, indicating that a common physical mechanism arising from a dynamo construct. The positive relation between the rotational and cycle periods is confirmed for the inhomogeneous set of active stars. Stellar activity cycles are generally multiple and variable.

description: We present integrated polarization properties of nearby spiral galaxies at 4.8 GHz, and models for the integrated polarization of spiral galaxy disks as a function of inclination. Spiral galaxies in our sample have observed integrated fractional polarization in the range < 1% to 17.6%. At inclinations less than 50 degrees, the fractional polarization depends mostly on the ratio of random to regular magnetic field strength. At higher inclinations, Faraday depolarization associated with the regular magnetic field becomes more important. The observed degree of polarization is lower (<4%) for more luminous galaxies, in particular those with L_{4.8} > 2 x 10^{21} W/Hz. The polarization angle of the integrated emission is aligned with the apparent minor axis of the disk for galaxies without a bar. In our axially symmetric models, the polarization angle of the integrated emission is independent of wavelength. Simulated distributions of fractional polarization for randomly oriented spiral galaxies at 4.8 GHz and 1.4 GHz are presented. We conclude that polarization measurements, e.g. with the SKA, of unresolved spiral galaxies allow statistical studies of the magnetic field in disk galaxies using large samples in the local universe and at high redshift. As these galaxies behave as idealized background sources without internal Faraday rotation, they can be used to detect large-scale magnetic fields in the intergalactic medium.

description: We study the emergence of a yield stress in dense suspensions of non-Brownian particles, by combining local velocity and concentration measurements using Magnetic Resonance Imaging with macroscopic rheometric experiments. We show that the competition between gravity and viscous stresses is at the origin of the development of a yield stress in these systems at relatively low volume fractions. Moreover, it is accompanied by a shear banding phenomenon that is the signature of this competition. However, if the system is carefully density matched, no yield stress is encountered until a volume fraction of 62.7 0.3%.

Publisher: name: AYDEN JOURNAL
Year: 2024
Subjects: Total Assets of Banks, Loan to deposit ratio, liquidity ratio, monetary policy rate, GMM.

description: This study examined empirically the impact of monetary policy on the performance of Nigeria deposit money banks between 1981 -2021. The data for study were extracted from Central Bank of Nigeria statistical bulletin 2021. The study employed various econometric tools to analyse the data obtained, but specifically applied the Generalized Method of Moments due to dynamic nature of the study. Deposit money banks performance as the dependent variable was proxied by total asset of banks while monetary policy variables were proxied by monetary policy rate, loan to deposit ratio and liquidity ratio respectively. The result showed that monetary policy rate and loan to deposit significantly impact total asset. This result is in line with the quantity theory of money supply. We therefore recommend that monetary policy rate should be optimized appropriately to boost the flow of money and economic performance in the country.

description: Addendum report to PHE's (2019) JBMDL Section 110 CWE Eligibility Report. The addendum evaluated the NRHP eligibility of 29 facilities. Of the 29 additional facilities evaluated, 13 were found to be demolished or rebuilt in place and 9 were determined not eligible due to property type. The remaining seven facilities were evaluated using NJHPO survey forms. Four were determined not eligible for the NRHP. Three facilities – Facility #131 (Water Treatment House), Facility #140 (PW Chemical Storage) and Facility #170 (Pump House, Well #5) - were found eligible for the NRHP as contributing resources to the National Register listed Lighter-Than-Air (LTA) Historic District.
Food habits and food shopping patterns of greek immigrants in vancouver, b. c.
Creators: name: Grant, Keith Frank
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: North American cities consist of a variety of different ethnic groups. Many of these groups are minority communities who live in clearly defined areas of the cities and maintain many of the habits and traditions of their homelands. This leads them to live in a way which is often quite distinctive from the dominant Anglo-American culture prevalent in most Canadian or American cities. The present study is concerned with one such community. More particularly, this study examines the food habits of Greek immigrants in Vancouver, and attempts to show that the food habits maintained by this group differ from those of the 'average' Canadian. Spatially, such differences are manifested in a distinctive pattern of food shopping behaviour.

description: We demonstrate in this paper that the velocity widths of the neutral gas in Damped Ly Alpha (DLA) systems are inconsistent with these systems originating in gas disks of galaxies similar to those seen in the local Universe. We examine the gas kinematics of local galaxies using the high quality HI 21-cm data from the HI Nearby Galaxies Survey (THINGS) and make a comparison with the velocity profiles measured in the low-ionization metal lines observed in DLAs at high redshifts. The median velocity width of z=0 HI gas above the DLA column density limit of N=2x10^20 cm-2 is approximately 30 km/s, whereas the typical value in DLAs is a factor of two higher. We argue that the gas kinematics at higher redshifts are increasingly influenced by gas that is not participating in ordered rotation in cold disks, but is more likely associated with tidal gas related to galaxy interactions or processes such as superwinds and outflows. An analysis of the HI in the local interacting star-burst galaxy M82 shows that the velocity widths in this galaxy are indeed similar to what is seen in DLAs.

The tertiary volcanic rocks of the Tamar Trough, Northern Tasmania
Creators: name: Sutherland, FL
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Tertiary volcanic rocks are widespread in the Tamar Trough, a fault structure formed in late Mesozoic or early Tertiary time. The volcanic rocks are predom- inantly confined lavas, erupted from a number of centres, and fill old channels of the Tamar River System. Eruptions commenced in the Lower Tertiary, following dissection of Palaeocene-Middle Eocene sediments filling the Tamar Trough, became maximal in the Middle Tertiary, and may have continued into the Upper Tertiary. The volcanic suite ranges from strongly undersaturated lavas of olivine- nephelinite, limburgite and nepheline- basanite, through under-saturated to nearsaturated alkali olivine- basalts and tholeiitic olivine basalt. The field stratigraphy tentatively suggests the following eruptive sequence: olivine- basalts in the lower, middle and south Tamar areas in Upper Eocene-Oligocane (?) time, followed by olivine- nephelinite and nepheline- basanite in the middle Tamar area in Oligocene (?) time, and then widespread effusions of undersaturated olivine- basalts in the middle, upper and south Tamar areas in Middle-Upper (?) Tertiary time. These last include thick lavas of coarse olivine- basalt in which some di1fferentiation took place and in which pegmatitic phases developed. The relationships of olivine- nephelinite, limburgite, and tholeiitic olivine-basalt in the south Tamar area to the eruptive sequence are unknown. The Tamar lavas are similar to those in adjacent areas to the north- west, south- west and north- east, but differ somewhat from those in adjacent areas to the south and east, where tholeitic olivine- basalts predoinate. The Tamar lavas resemble the Older Volcanic Series of Victoria and the Auckland basalts in New Zealand, in their petrochemistry. The eruptive history of the Tamar laves appears to differ in some respects from that of the Older Volcanics of Victoria. Chemical variation diagrams show that the Tamar lavas essentially form an alkaline association falling generally along a similar trend to the Hawaiian alkali basalts and to some extent the Black Jack teschenite trend. The alkaline association passes into an olivine- tholeiitic association to the south- east, and the parent magmas of the two associations may have derived from differing degrees of partial melting of mantle pyrolite.

description: We focus on D-brane models in presence of closed string background fluxes. These fluxes modify the effective interactions on Dirichlet and Euclidean branes, in particular inducing fermionic masses. We show how they can create new non-perturbative superpotential terms in presence of gauge and exotic instantons in SQCD-like models.

Ecology and feeding behaviour of the Tasmanian tiger snake Notechis ater humphreysi
Creators: name: Dredge, PD
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Although the ecological and behavioural aspects of the biology of reptiles have received increased attention in the last two decades, in general, research activities have been centered around families containing representatives that are relatively innocuous and/or of small individual size, particularly those of the North American continent and some areas of Europe. The ecology and behaviour of small lizards has been studied by several investigators, including Carpenter (1960), Sexton and Heatwole (1968), Ballinger, Marion and Sexton (1970), Ballinger and Schrank (1970), Kour and Hutchinson (1970), Avery (1971) and Fitch (1972). Lizards of the family Iguanidae have been investigated in considerable detail and the voluminous literature relating to this taxon includes studies by, Carpenter (1961), McGinnes and Dickson (1967), Halpern and Lowe (1968) and, White (1973). A substantial amount of information is also available about crocodilians and chelonions, as well as about colubrid snakes, e.g. Shaw (1951), Carpenter (1952), Dmi'el (1967), Burghardt (1969), Gillingham (1974) and Greenwald (1974). Although Australia is distinguished by possessing an abundant and diverse herpeto-fauna (664 species distributed over some 21 families) research on the reptiles of this has been negligible until the early-to mid-1960's.

description: We construct charged and rotating asymptotically Schrodinger black hole solutions of IIB supergravity. We begin by obtaining a closed-form expression for the null Melvin twist of a broad class of type IIB backgrounds, including solutions of minimal five-dimensional gauged supergravity, and identify the resulting five-dimensional effective action. We use these results to demonstrate that the near-horizon physics and thermodynamics of asymptotically Schrodinger black holes obtained in this way are essentially inherited from their AdS progenitors, and verify that they admit zero-temperature extremal limits with AdS_2 near-horizon geometries. Notably, the AdS_2 radius is parametrically larger than that of the asymptotic Schrodinger space.

description: The present dissertation examines the criminal trial after the Court of Cassation adjudicates on an appeal, as a model for an in-depth analysis of the effects of legal remedies (: devolutive – suspensive – expansive – principle of non reformatio in pejus). The methodological approach followed consists of the systematization of case law in this most mature phase of the criminal procedure -interwoven with the question of (partial) res judicata- and its submission to a strict theoretical review (from the point of view of both substantive and procedural criminal law), for the purpose of formulating general doctrinal conclusions.
Origin of the high-energy kink or the waterfall effect in the photoemission spectrum of the ${\rm Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8}$ high-temperature superconductor

description: The high-energy kink or the waterfall effect seen in the photoemission spectra of the cuprates is suggestive of the coupling of the quasiparticles to a high energy bosonic mode with implications for the mechanism of superconductivity. Recent experiments however indicate that this effect may be an artifact produced entirely by the matrix element effects, i.e. by the way the photoemitted electron couples to the incident photons in the emission process. In order to address this issue directly, we have carried out realistic computations of the photo-intensity in ${\rm Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_8}$ (Bi2212) where the effects of the matrix element are included together with those of the corrections to the self-energy resulting from electronic excitations. Our results demonstrate that while the photoemission matrix element plays an important role in shaping the spectra, the waterfall effect is a clear signature of the presence of strong coupling of quasiparticles to electronic excitations.

Severity and early English Cistercian architecture
Creators: name: Roy, Robert Arthur
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: It is generally agreed that Cistercian architecture of the twelfth century is plain and simple. Many writers attribute this severity wholly to the influence of St. Bernard, without considering the political, social and economic conditions that prevailed during the early years of the Cistercian order's history. In this paper, a wider approach is taken; from a study of early Cistercian architecture in England it is suggested that the simplicity was the product of several factors, rather than the decree of one man. The paper begins with a brief resume of the events leading to the foundation of the Cistercian order and of its early development. The impact of St. Bernard on the order was considerable. Without him it is doubtful if the order would have expanded or, indeed, survived. In England, the movement was faced with many problems. The land was inadequate to support a community that wished to live entirely on its own agricultural production. As the order expanded, the acquisition of extra land became an ever present problem, thus involving the Cistercians in the secular world they had vowed to leave. They took to producing cash crops, such as wool and adopted other financial practices contrary to their rules. The Cistercian ideal had proved unattainable in the England of the time. Early French Cistercian buildings reflect the essential simplicity of the architecture. Although the early churches share the same characteristic features, absolute uniformity was not required. Little decoration was added before the fourteenth century. There is no example of Cistercian architecture left intact in England. However examination of the ruins that remain do reveal the severity of the earliest constructions. As these were extended more decoration and higher quality stonework is evident. English Cistercian architecture of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries reflects the development of the order in England during those years. As the order deviated from its rules, so its architecture became more elaborate. Because of this we may conclude that simplicity in English Cistercian architecture was the result of factors other than strict legislation.
