description: Conservation takes place within social–ecological systems, and many conservation interventions aim to influence human behaviour in order to push these systems towards sustainability. Predictive models of human behaviour are potentially powerful tools to support these interventions. This is particularly true if the models can link the attributes and behaviour of individuals with the dynamics of the social and environmental systems within which they operate. Here we explore this potential by showing how combining two modelling approaches (social network analysis, SNA, and agent-based modelling, ABM) could lead to more robust insights into a particular type of conservation intervention. We use our simple model, which simulates knowledge of ranger patrols through a hunting community and is based on empirical data from a Cambodian protected area, to highlight the complex, context-dependent nature of outcomes of information-sharing interventions, depending both on the configuration of the network and the attributes of the agents. We conclude by reflecting that both SNA and ABM, and many other modelling tools, are still too compartmentalized in application, either in ecology or social science, despite the strong methodological and conceptual parallels between their uses in different disciplines. Even a greater sharing of methods between disciplines is insufficient, however; given the impact of conservation on both the social and ecological aspects of systems (and vice versa), a fully integrated approach is needed, combining both the modelling approaches and the disciplinary insights of ecology and social science.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Linking behaviour to dynamics of populations and communities: application of novel approaches in behavioural ecology to conservation’.
Effect of non-local electron conductivity on power absorption and plasma density profiles in low pressure inductively coupled discharges

description: A self-consistent 1-D model was developed to study the effects of non-local electron conductivity on power absorption and plasma density profiles in a planar inductively coupled argon discharge at low pressures (< 10 mTorr). The model consisted of three modules: (1) an electron energy distribution function (EEDF) module to compute the non-Maxwellian EEDF, (2) a non-local electron kinetics module to predict the non-local electron conductivity, RF current, electric field and power deposition profiles in the non-uniform plasma, and (3) a heavy species transport module to solve for the ion density and velocity profiles as well as the metastable density. Results using the non-local electron conductivity model were compared with predictions of a local theory (Ohm's law), under otherwise identical conditions. The RF current, electric field, and power deposition profiles were very different, especially at 1 mTorr for which the effective electron mean free path was larger than the skin depth. However, the plasma density profiles were almost identical (within 10%) for the same total power deposition in the plasma. This result suggests that, for computing plasma density profiles, a local conductivity model (Ohm's law), with much reduced computational expense, may be employed even in the non-local regime.

title: The Functional Role of NRAP in the Nucleolus

Subjects: subject: NRAP
subject: novel nucleolar protein

description: The nucleolus is the site for rRNA synthesis, a process requiring the recruitment of many proteins involved in ribosomal biogenesis. Nrap is a novel nucleolar protein found to be present in all eukaryotes. Preliminary characterisation of Nrap suggested it was likely to participate in ribosome biogenesis but as with many other nucleolar proteins, the functional role of Nrap is largely unknown. In this study, the role of mammalian Nrap in the nucleolus and in ribosome biogenesis was explored. Initially, a number of tools were generated to investigate Nrap function. This involved raising and purifying a polyclonal antibody against the N-terminal region of Nrap. The anti-Nrap antibody was found to detect two Nrap bands in mouse fibroblast cells, possibly corresponding to the two mouse Nrap isoforms, and . In addition, mammalian expression vectors containing the full Nrap sequence as well as deletion constructs were created. The subcellular localisation of each construct was observed by fluorescent microscopy. It was revealed that recombinant Nrap did not localise to the nucleolus, possibly because it was exported to undergo degradation by the 26S proteasome. Two putative NLSs were found to be responsible for directing Nrap to the nucleus but a region accountable for nucleolar localisation was not identified. The data indicated that multiple domains working together are likely to direct Nrap to the nucleolus. Nrap was also observed to co-localise with nucleolar proteins B23 and p19ARF. Moreover, it was shown by reciprocal immunoprecipitation that these three nucleolar proteins existed in a complex in unsynchronised mouse fibroblast cells. Recent reports demonstrated a complex relationship between B23 and p19ARF although the functional significance remained unclear. Nrap's in vivo association with B23 and p19ARF indicated a specific functional role in the nucleolus. Nrap knockdown using siRNA significantly increased B23 protein levels in a dose-dependent manner and down-regulated p19ARF protein levels at higher siRNA concentration. Preliminary studies also implicated Nrap in cell proliferation through these novel interactions. Both endogenous and recombinant Nrap were found to be highly unstable suggesting that Nrap might regulate B23 and p19ARF through its own tightly regulated stability. Finally, the role of Nrap in rRNA processing was investigated by northern blot analysis. Nrap knockdown was found to affect the levels of 45S, 32S and 28S rRNAs. The changes found may be a consequence of the concurrent perturbation in the levels of B23 and p19ARF caused by Nrap knockdown. As the results were not consistent with previous reports, it was likely that changes to rRNA processing could be contributed to Nrap loss of function. This study demonstrated for the first time a functional role of Nrap in rRNA processing possibly through its association with B23 and p19ARF.

description: The physics of the dark sector has remained one of the controversial areas of modern cosmology at present and hence it naturally attracts massive attention to the scientific community. With the developments of the astronomical data, the physics of the dark sector is becoming much more transparent than it was some twenty years back. The detection of gravitational waves (GWs) has now opened a cluster of possibilities in the cosmological regime. Being motivated by the detection of GWs and its possible impact on the physics of dark matter and dark energy, in this work we focus on the interacting dark energy models. Assuming the simplest possibility in which the vacuum energy with equation-of-state $w_x =-1$ is allowed to interact with the pressureless dark matter, we have extracted the constraints of the cosmological parameters. We find that the addition of the GWs data to the CMB measurements significantly improves up to a factor 4 of the parameters space, and up to a factor 2 for the full combination of current cosmological datasets, namely CMB+BAO+Pantheon+RSD+R16+CC+WL. The most affected parameters by the inclusion of the GWs are $Ω_ch^2$, $θ_{MC}$, $ξ$, and the derived parameters $Ω_{m0}$, $σ_8$ and $H_0$.

description: Additional file 1: Figure S1. Genotyping of WdpcpCys40, WdpcpFlox, and Prx1-cre mice. The Cys40 allele is a result of an A- > G base change at the end of exon 5 that causes a splice defect with exon 5 excluded from the mRNA. This splice defect results in a premature stop codon (Cui et al. 2013). This allele is genotyped by Sanger sequencing (A). The construct for the inducible Wdpcp deletion had a PGKNeo cassette flanked by FRT sites that was removed via breeding to a mouse with constitutive expression of the FLP recombinase. The conditional mouse model used in this study carries two LoxP sites on either side of exon 5 (Cui et al. 2013). Cre mediated recombination results in deletion of exon 5, forming a functional null that mimics the Cys40 mutant. Mice carrying the Prx1-cre allele were identified by PCR amplification of a region of the Cre recombinase cDNA (B) that resulted in a 102 bp product (C). Mice carrying the floxed allele of Wdpcp were identified with primers that amplified a fragment containing (424 bp) or lacking (262 bp) the inserted LoxP site (C). Figure S2. Defective ciliogenesis in Wdpcp-cKO mesenchymal progenitor cells. Mesenchymal progenitors from control and Wdpcp-cKO mice were stained for acetylated alpha tubulin (red), a marker of primary cilia (white arrows). Acetylated alpha tubulin is a modified form of alpha tubulin found in high concentrations within primary cilia. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue) for counterstain.

description: Consistent observations indicate that some of the important cosmological parameters measured through the local observations are in huge tension with their measurements from the global observations (within the minimal $Λ$CDM cosmology). The tensions in those cosmological parameters have been found to be either weakened or reconciled with the introduction of new degrees of freedom that effectively increases the underlying parameter space compared to the minimal $Λ$CDM cosmology. It might be interesting to investigate the above tensions within the context of an emergent dark energy scenario proposed recently by Li and Shafieloo~\cite{Li:2019yem}. We find that the tension on $H_0$ is clearly alleviated within 68\% confidence level with an improvement of the $χ^2$ for CMB, for the above emergent dark energy model having only six free parameters similar to the spatially flat $Λ$CDM model. The tension on $H_0$ is still alleviated for every combined datasets considered in the work, however, such alleviation occurs by worsening the $χ^2$ compared to the $χ^2$ for $Λ$CDM model obtained for the same combined dataset.

description: The effects of the experiment itself upon the obtained results and, especially, the influence of a large number of experiments are extensively discussed in the literature. We show that the important factor that stands at the basis of these effects is that the involved experiments are related and not independent and detached from each other. This relationship takes, as shown here, different forms for different situations and is found in entirely different physical regimes such as the quantum and classical ones.

Lancien concerning the non-embeddability of the family of countably branching trees into reflexive Banach spaces whose Szlenk index and Szlenk index from the dual are both equal to the first infinite ordinal $ω$. In particular we show that the family of countably branching trees does neither embed into the James space $\mathcal{J}_p$ nor into its dual space $\mathcal{J}_p^*$ for $p\in(1,\infty)$.

description: The proposed 50 \,kton\, INO-ICAL experiment is an upcoming underground high energy physics experiment planned to be commissioned at Bodi hills near Theni, India ($9^{\circ}57'N$, $77^{\circ}16'E$) to study various properties of neutrino oscillations using atmospheric neutrinos produced by extensive air shower phenomenon. The resistive plate chamber has been chosen as the active detector element for the proposed INO-ICAL. An experimental setup consisting a stack of 12 layers of glass resistive plate chambers each with a size of $\sim$2\,m$\times$2\,m has been built at IICHEP, Madurai to study the performance and long-term stability of the resistive plate chambers(RPCs) commercially produced in large quantities by the Indian industries as well as its electronics for the front-end and subsequent signal processing. In this study, the azimuthal dependence of muon flux at various zenith angles at Madurai (9$^{\circ}$56'N, 78$^{\circ}$00'E and at an altitude of 160\,m above mean sea level) has been presented along with the comparison of Monte Carlo from CORSIKA and HONDA predictions.

description: The LISA Pathfinder (LPF) mission succeeded outstandingly in demonstrating key technological aspects of future space-borne gravitational-wave detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). Specifically, LPF demonstrated with unprecedented sensitivity the measurement of the relative acceleration of two free-falling cubic test masses. Although most disruptive nongravitational forces have been identified and their effects mitigated through a series of calibration processes, some faint transient signals of yet unexplained origin remain in the measurements. If they appear in the LISA data, these perturbations (also called glitches) could skew the characterization of gravitational-wave sources or even be confused with gravitational-wave bursts. For the first time, we provide a comprehensive census of LPF transient events. Our analysis is based on a phenomenological shapelet model allowing us to derive simple statistics about the physical features of the glitch population. We then implement a generator of synthetic glitches designed to be used for subsequent LISA studies, and perform a preliminary evaluation of the effect of the glitches on future LISA data analyses.

description: We study quench dynamics in the many-body Hilbert space using two isolated systems with a finite number of interacting particles: a paradigmatic model of randomly interacting bosons and a dynamical (clean) model of interacting spins-$1/2$. For both systems in the region of strong quantum chaos, the number of components of the evolving wave function, defined through the number of principal components $N_{pc}$ (or participation ratio), was recently found to increase exponentially fast in time [Phys. Rev. E 99, 010101R (2019)]. Here, we ask whether the out-of-time ordered correlator (OTOC), which is nowadays widely used to quantify instability in quantum systems, can manifest analogous time-dependence. We show that $N_{pc}$ can be formally expressed as the inverse of the sum of all OTOC's for projection operators. While none of the individual projection-OTOC's shows an exponential behavior, their sum decreases exponentially fast in time. The comparison between the behavior of the OTOC with that of the $N_{pc}$ helps us better understand wave packet dynamics in the many-body Hilbert space, in close connection with the problems of thermalization and information scrambling.

description: On any manifold M^n, the de Rham operator D=d+d^* (with respect to a complete Riemannian metric), with the grading of forms by parity of degree, gives rise by Kasparov theory to a class [D] in KO_0(M), which when M is closed maps to the Euler characteristic chi(M) in KO_0(point) = Z. The purpose of this note is to give a quick proof of the (perhaps unfortunate) fact that [D] is as trivial as it could be subject to this constraint. More precisely, if M is connected, [D] lies in the image of Z = KO_0(point) in KO_0(M) (induced by the inclusion of a basepoint).

description: The nature of racism in the United States has transformed from overt prejudice and blatant discrimination to more covert, embedded, ambiguous manifestations called racial microaggressions (Constantine, 2007; Pierce, Carew, Pierce-Gonzalez, & Willis, 1978; Sue, Capidolupo et al., 2007).   Researchers have demonstrated the unique, harmful, and cumulative impact of racial microaggressions in the lives of people of color (Rivera, Forquer, & Rangel, 2010; Sue, Nadal, Capodilupo, Lin, Torino, & Rivera, 2008). By way of primarily qualitative, exploratory research, scholars have found that Black students' experiences with perceived racial microaggressions are linked with negative psychological and physical health, educational, and career performance (Greer & Chwalisz, 2007; Solórzano, Ceja, & Yosso, 2000; Watkins, LaBarrie, & Appio, 2010).  Despite these findings, some Black students appear resilient in toxic microaggressive college environments, while others seem negatively affected.   To gain insight about factors that cultivate resiliency and buffer against negative outcomes, the following study utilizes a quantitative methodology to examine (a) how Black students navigate microaggressive and culturally incongruent environments in predominately White colleges, (b) the role of social support in buffering their experiences, and (c) various self-regulatory styles employed in reaction to the academic climate.  Implications of this study will contribute to research, theory, and educational practices as it applies to the promotion of culturally congruent college environments and the diversification of the academy.

First-order RMBPT is used to obtain intermediate coupling coefficients and second-order RMBPT is used to calculate transition matrix elements. A detailed discussion of the various contributions to dipole matrix elements is given for sodiumlike copper (Z = 29). Transition energies used in the calculation of transition rates are from second-order RMBPT. Trends of transition rates as functions of Z are shown graphically for selected transitions.

description: We study quadratic, volume preserving diffeomorphisms whose inverse is also quadratic. Such maps generalize the Hénon area preserving map and the family of symplectic quadratic maps studied by Moser. In particular, we investigate a family of quadratic volume preserving maps in three space for which we find a normal form and study invariant sets. We also give an alternative proof of a theorem by Moser classifying quadratic symplectic maps.

Juvenile delinquency

description: Young people who have received special education services in the United States are vastly overrepresented in juvenile and adult criminal justice systems relative to their numbers in the general population. Although much existing research frequently assumes that deficits within young people are the cause of this problem, research also suggests that educational experiences can increase the likelihood that young people will get arrested. However, the exact mechanisms by which time at school seems to lead to prison for so many young people who have received special educational services is unclear. This study uses a Disability Studies (DS) framework to understand this problem. Disability Studies scholars view disability as a social construction; students do not have a disability that justifies differential treatment, they become disabled through school practices that privilege particular norms for doing and being at school. In addition, DS scholars and activists have taken up the mantra, “Nothing about us without us,” insisting that the perspectives of individuals with disabilities be included in any research about disability. This mixed methods study sought to understand both which school-level factors predict arrest for young people receiving special education services and how young people present and explain those and other school-level factors. I conducted regression analysis using administrative data from the New York City Department of Education and New York State Education Department to determine which school-level factors predict arrest, on average, for young people receiving special educational services in New York City’s public secondary schools for one school year. Then, I conducted semi-structured interviews with six young people who have received special education services and been arrested in NYC. This study suggests that school-level factors do significantly increase the likelihood that a school will have students receiving special education services who have been arrested. These school-level factors are alterable by policy and practice. This study further suggests that young people receiving special education services describe and evaluate their educations in relation to imagined “regular” schools rather than according to how their schools actually help or hinder them.

description: In regard to the highly vulnerable coastal areas of Indonesia, the focus of this thesis is on what might comprise effective community engagement to enhance local capacity building for climate change adaptation. Following an extensive multidisciplinary literature review complemented by field work, suggestions are made. The literatures include those of public participation and community engagement; particularly in regard to closely interrelated contexts of environmental management, sustainable development and climate change adaptation, internationally and in Indonesia. A series of semi-structured interviews with relevant policy actors from the governmental to the community level provided data in Indonesian practice, thought, and context to well inform the analysis. A key finding was that current community enagement practices in Indonesia are wanting in any meaningful engagement with local communities and their representatives to build effective adaptive capacity at the local level. Lack of local social knowledge and perspectives in government facilitated programs is a significant causal factor of low participation in such programs. Enhanced community engagement that stresses social inclusion in partnership programs for building adaptive capacity and local acceptance and support is thus needed. Other key determinants or attributes for such programs were found to be enhanced social capital, institutional change to facilitate participatory governance approaches, and the associated need to address social-economic issues of vulnerable, usually poor, communities, in particular, poverty and low levels of literacy and education.

description: Theoretical analysis typically involves imaginary-time correlation functions. Inferring real-time dynamical response functions from this information is notoriously difficult. However, as we articulate here, it is straightforward to compute imaginary-time correlators from the measured frequency dependence of (real-time) response functions. In addition to facilitating comparison between theory and experiment, the proposed approach can be useful in extracting certain aspects of the (long-time relaxational) dynamics from a complex data set. We illustrate this with an analysis of the nematic response inferred from Raman scattering spectroscopy on the iron-based superconductor Ba(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$, which includes a new method for identifying a putative quantum critical contribution to that response.

description: An L-embedded Banach spaace is a Banach space which is complemented in its bidual such that the norm is additive between the two complementary parts. On such spaces we define a topology, called an abstract measure topology, which by known results coincides with the usual measure topology on preduals of finite von Neumann algebras (like $L_1([0,1])$). Though not numerous, the known properties of this topology suffice to generalize several results on subspaces of $L_1([0,1])$ to subspaces of arbitrary L-embedded spaces.

Jails--Design and construction

description: The goal of this thesis is to generate a set of standards for the preservation and adaptive reuse of Progressive Era Jails (roughly 1880s-1930s) in the United States. It looks briefly at the history of penal reforms, providing the reader with a basic knowledge of the penal system in order to better understand the findings and recommendations presented. Adaptive reuse cases of jails are discussed, followed by a detailed look at Progressive Era jails and their character-defining features, program layout, circulation and supervision components, and structural integrity. Based on these four basic principles, preservation recommendations are given and implemented into a design for the adaptive ruse of the 1906 York County Jail in York County, Pennsylvania.

description: I analyze the one-dimensional, cubic Schrödinger equation, with nonlinearity constructed from the current density, rather than, as is usual, from the charge density. A soliton solution is found, where the soliton moves only in one direction. Relation to higher-dimensional Chern--Simons theory is indicated. The theory is quantized and results for the two-body quantum problem agree at weak coupling with those coming from a semiclassical quantization of the soliton.

description: Shipworms are a group of wood-boring and wood-feeding bivalves of extraordinary economic, ecological and historical importance. Known in the literature since the fourth century BC, shipworms are both destructive pests and critical providers of ecosystem services. All previously described shipworms are obligate wood-borers, completing all or part of their life cycle in wood and most are thought to use wood as a primary source of nutrition. Here, we report and describe a new anatomically and morphologically divergent species of shipworm that bores in carbonate limestone rather than in woody substrates and lacks adaptations associated with wood-boring and wood digestion. The species is highly unusual in that it bores by ingesting rock and is among the very few known freshwater rock-boring macrobioeroders. The calcareous burrow linings of this species resemble fossil borings normally associated with bivalve bioerosion of wood substrates (ichnospecies Teredolites longissimus) in marginal and fully marine settings. The occurrence of this newly recognized shipworm in a lithic substrate has implications for teredinid phylogeny and evolution, and interpreting palaeoenvironmental conditions based on fossil bioerosion features.
