description: The market for voluntary carbon offsets has grown steadily in the last decade, yet it remains a very small niche. Most emissions from business travel are still not offset. This paper exploits a unique dataset examining the decision to purchase carbon offsets at two academic conferences in environmental and ecological economics. We find that having the conference expenses covered by one's institution increases the likelihood of offsetting, but practical and ethical reservations as well as personal characteristics and preferences also play an important role. We draw lessons from the effect of objections on the use of offsets and discuss the implications for practitioners and policy-makers. Based on our findings, we conclude that ecological and environmental economists should be more involved in the design and use of carbon offsets.

description:
Luciano Pavarotti, a celebrated tenor of the 20th century, is renowned for his powerful vocal abilities, particularly in executing high notes in the chest register, exemplified by his historic performance of nine “chest C” notes in the aria “Ah, mes amis, quel jour de fête!” from “La figlia del reggimento”. This study aims to examine the physiological and phonetic aspects of Pavarotti’s vocal technique. A comprehensive literature review was conducted utilizing Scopus and Google Scholar, focusing on publications regarding Pavarotti’s vocal methods, with careful screening for original research and sound anatomical insights. Findings highlight that Pavarotti’s impressive vocal capabilities stemmed from a combination of anatomical structure, extensive training, and effective use of resonance, which permitted the execution of high notes with clarity and richness. The interplay between Pavarotti’s technical mastery, interpretive approach, and advancements in recording technology, alongside how lifelong training mitigated vocal aging. As a consequence, Pavarotti’s achievements are not solely attributable to anatomical predisposition but also to disciplined artistry, establishing an enduring standard in operatic performance that highlights the complexities of the vocal art form.

description: The recent developments of nonmarket valuation have focused on identifying preference heterogeneity and examining the impact it has on consumer’s willingness to pay. The objective of this study is to examine the extent to which heterogeneous environmental attitudes influence demand for freshwater recreational activities as well as the valuation of freshwater recreational benefits. We focus on the St. Johns River, the longest river in Florida, and use a telephone survey of Florida’s residents to elicit information in regards to household outdoor recreational experiences on the river. Information regarding respondent attitudes and perceptions towards Florida’s water resources and natural resource policies was gathered in the survey as well. We employed a latent class analysis to reveal two distinct classes of respondents based on their responses to questions regarding their environmental attitudes and perceptions. We then estimated a recreational demand model with respect to travel costs associated with getting to the river, household income, perceived water quality of the river, and respondents’ environmental attitudes within each latent class. We found that class 1’s individual recreational benefits are twice as large as class 2’s. We contribute to the literature by emphasizing that environmental attitudes directly influence consumer recreational demand and valuation of the river, and should be taken into consideration for water resource management policies.

description: The equilibrium geometry, harmonic frequency and dissociation energy of lanthanum monochloride have been calculated at B3LYP, MP2, QCISD(T) levels with energy-consistent relativistic effective core potentials. The possible electronic state and reasonable dissociation limit for the ground state are determined based on atomic and molecular reaction statics. Potential energy curve scans for the ground state X^{1} Sigma^+ have been carried out with B3LYP and QCISD(T) methods due to their better performance in bond energy calculations. We find the potential energy calculated with QCISD(T) method is about 0.5 eV larger than dissociation energy when the diatomic distance is as large as 0.8 nm. The problem that single-reference ab initio methods don't meet dissociation limit during calculations of lanthanide heavy-metal elements is analyzed. We propose the calculation scheme to derive analytical Murrell-Sorbie potential energy function and Dunham expansion at equilibrium position. Spectroscopic constants got by standard Dunham treatment are in good agreement with results of rotational analyses on spectroscopic experiments. The analytical function is of much realistic importance since it is possible to be applied to predict fine transitional structure and study reaction dynamic process.

description:
The acquisition of musical skills is a natural process for children and wide evidence supports positive effects of music-related activities on their emotional regulation, mood and cognition. By the age of one year, the child begins to imitate songs or simple melodies and his musical skills progress during infancy until he becomes able to sing in tune and maintain a consistent rhythm, allowing him to participate in group music activities, such as choirs, bands, or classroom musical games. On the other hand, singing is a challenge to the fragile anatomy of the vocal apparatus of the child and vocal pathologies are very common in general children population. Evidence on this topic is very limited, but two studies support lower levels of dysphonia in the young singers. A proper musical education is of course the best way to introduce the child to singing through the discovery of the voice as a means of expression, without inducing tension or effort in the vocal production apparatus. Particularly during the voice change in puberty, a careful management of the singer’s voice is required from the singing teacher, according to progressive voice mutation. Anyway, at the first signs of vocal fatigue, it is important to refer the child to an ENT or phoniatric evaluation and, if necessary, speech therapy.

description: Testing a covariance matrix following a Gaussian graphical model (GGM) is considered in this paper based on observations made at a set of distributed sensors grouped into clusters. Ordered transmissions are proposed to achieve the same Bayes risk as the optimum centralized energy unconstrained approach but with fewer transmissions and a completely distributed approach. In this approach, we represent the Bayes optimum test statistic as a sum of local test statistics which can be calculated by only utilizing the observations available at one cluster. We select one sensor to be the cluster head (CH) to collect and summarize the observed data in each cluster and intercluster communications are assumed to be inexpensive. The CHs with more informative observations transmit their data to the fusion center (FC) first. By halting before all transmissions have taken place, transmissions can be saved without performance loss. It is shown that this ordering approach can guarantee a lower bound on the average number of transmissions saved for any given GGM and the lower bound can approach approximately half the number of clusters when the minimum eigenvalue of the covariance matrix under the alternative hypothesis in each cluster becomes sufficiently large.

description: Consumer preferences for food have drastically changed over the last decades. Other than the nutrient provided by food, they increasingly care about the impact of food production on the environment and society. Consequently, consumers require more information regarding a number of intangible product attributes, such as the amount of fertilizer used, whether the farmer adopted sustainable production practices etc. The objective of this paper is twofold. First, the study seeks to identify sustainable consumer groups by examining their preferences of different tangible and intangible attributes of fresh strawberries. Second, it investigates the effect of consumers’ perceptions for different labels (i.e. organic, local etc.) and their willingness to pay for the examined attributes. This can provide valuable insights to retailers, farmers and policy makers to promote sustainable food production and increase profitability by meeting consumers’ increasing demands for sustainability. The study data set is obtained from a nationwide online survey of U.S consumers. Payment card method combined with ordered probit model is used to estimate consumer WTP. Preliminary results indicate that consumers who frequently purchase groceries in farmers markets or those who subscribe to community support agriculture services are willing to pay more for strawberries labeled intangible attributes.

description: This study analyzes U.S. consumers' demand for eight food commodity groups: Cereal and Bakery goods, Meat and Eggs, Dairy, Fruits and Vegetables, Nonalcoholic Beverages, Fats and Oils, Sugar and Sweets, and Miscellaneous goods. The data used in this study is Nielsen Homescan data for the period 2002-2006. Three different levels of temporal aggregation, biweekly, monthly and yearly were considered. We conclude that the data collection period does affect the value of elasticities obtained from estimated food demand models. Moreover, larger biases in the estimated elasticities are likely to be present even when using econometric methods currently recommended to account for this problem.

description: The economic benefits and costs involved in an informal institutional arrangement of groundwater resource was analysed against control farm situation (non sharing farmers) in the present study. The sharing of well water among siblings was considered as an informal institution. Accordingly, a sample of thirty farmers sharing well water using snow ball sampling technique and a sample of seventeen farmers using simple random sampling were selected from central dry zone of Karnataka. In this study transaction costs and benefits of sharing water in irrigation well among siblings are estimated. The marginal productivity of groundwater irrigation due to the institution of sharing well water is estimated using linear regression with intercept dummy variable. The sustainable extraction path of groundwater is estimated using optimal control theory. The results indicated the absence of transaction cost in collective action, since sharing (a form of collective action which involves the cost of bringing siblings together providing information regarding importance of sharing water and the cost of convincing regarding sharing well water and the corresponding sustainable crop pattern, instead of drilling new well, which may result in reduced water in original well(s)) was among the siblings. Farmers who were sharing well water, experienced lower rate of failure of wells (23 per cent) when compared with farmers who were not sharing well water (for whom failure rate of wells was 46 per cent); had higher proportion of functioning wells (77 per cent) when compared with those not sharing (54 per cent). Similarly they experienced longer age of wells of 12.32 years, instead of 8.68 years; reduced negative externality (Rs. 1293 per well against Rs. 6692 per well), reduced cost of irrigation water per acre inch (Rs. 358 per acre inch against Rs. 599 per acre inch). Farmers who were sharing well water also realised higher net returns per rupee of functioning well (Rs.2,79,795 as against Rs.2,40,102) and net returns per rupee of irrigation water (Rs.10.83 against Rs. 7.23). The life of borewell could also enhance by 45 years instead of 8 years, by maintaining depth of wells.

description: Massive neutrinos suppress the growth of structure below their free-streaming scale and leave an imprint on large-scale structure. Measuring this imprint allows us to constrain the sum of neutrino masses, $M_ν$, a key parameter in particle physics beyond the Standard Model. However, degeneracies among cosmological parameters, especially between $M_ν$ and $σ_8$, limit the constraining power of standard two-point clustering statistics. In this work, we investigate whether we can break these degeneracies and constrain $\smnu$ with the next higher-order correlation function --- the bispectrum. We first examine the redshift-space halo bispectrum of $800$ $N$-body simulations from the HADES suite and demonstrate that the bispectrum helps break the $M_ν$--$σ_8$ degeneracy. Then using 22,000 $N$-body simulations of the Quijote suite, we quantify for the first time the full information content of the redshift-space halo bispectrum down to nonlinear scales using a Fisher matrix forecast of $\{Ω_m$, $Ω_b$, $h$, $n_s$, $σ_8$, $M_ν\}$. For $k_{\rm max}{=}0.5~h/{\rm Mpc}$, the bispectrum provides $Ω_m$, $Ω_b$, $h$, $n_s$, and $σ_8$ constraints 1.9, 2.6, 3.1, 3.6, and 2.6 times tighter than the power spectrum. For $M_ν$, the bispectrum improves the 1$σ$ constraint from 0.2968 to 0.0572 eV --- over 5 times tighter than the power spectrum. Even with priors from {\em Planck}, the bispectrum improves $M_ν$ constraints by a factor of 1.8. Although we reserve marginalizing over a more complete set of bias parameters to the next paper of the series, these constraints are derived for a $(1~h^{-1}{\rm Gpc})^3$ box, a substantially smaller volume than upcoming surveys. Thus, our results demonstrate that the bispectrum offers significant improvements over the power spectrum, especially for constraining $M_ν$.

description: A linear programming model has been formulated to suggest the optimal cropping pattern for maximising net returns and ensuring significant savings of groundwater with the aim of sustaining groundwater use in the Punjab agriculture. The dominance of paddy-wheat crop rotation has led to overexploitation of ground water resulting in rapid decline of water table in the entire state. The existing ground water draft for irrigation is 3.41 m ha m whereas the annual ground water availability is 2.03 m ha m, indicating a deficit of 1.38 m ha m of groundwater resources – a case of severe water imbalance in state. Diversifying agriculture towards less water consuming crops and use of resource conservation technologies is of utmost importance. The present study attempts to suggest a diversification plan for achieving water sustainability. The results revealed that a shift of area under maize and basmati in plan –I, resulted into a significant water saving of 8 per cent. The water saving amounted to 16.16 per cent when new crop activities, like paddy sown directly in the fields, i.e. resource conservation practices (DSR) technology and paddy sown by conventional method but irrigation scheduled by the use of tensiometer were introduced without any adverse impact on productivity.

description: Abstract: Long-lived dark states, in which an experimentally accessible qubit is not in thermal equilibrium with a surrounding spin bath, are pervasive in solid-state systems. We explain the ubiquity of dark states in a large class of inhomogeneous central spin models using the proximity to integrable lines with exact dark eigenstates. At numerically accessible sizes, dark states persist as eigenstates at large deviations from integrability, and the qubit retains memory of its initial polarization at long times. Although the eigenstates of the system are chaotic, exhibiting exponential sensitivity to small perturbations, they do not satisfy the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. Rather, we predict long relaxation times that increase exponentially with system size. We propose that this intermediate chaotic but non-ergodic regime characterizes mesoscopic quantum dot and diamond defect systems, as we see no numerical tendency towards conventional thermalization with a finite relaxation time.

description: A hedonic pricing model is used to investigate yearling thoroughbred buyer’s risk preferences to illustrate how they correlate with the economic climate. Using data from Keeneland September Yearling Sale from 2006-2009, we analyze the marginal effect of sires with unknown quality on sale prices of one-year-old thoroughbreds to discuss the possible correlation between buyers’ willingness of paying for freshman sires’ offspring and the economic recession. This gives us a better standing of thoroughbred action industry as well as how it is important for evaluating the health and confidence of the entire industry. A study by C. J. Stowe (2013) identifies the importance of buyer’s risk preference. It was also shown that yearling prices are influenced by individual characteristics as well as macro-economic variables (Buzby J.C. 1994). However, the link between buyers’ willingness of paying for freshman sires’ offspring and the economic recession has not yet been discussed. We anticipate that buyers are willing to pay a premium for progeny by stallions of unknown quality when the market is stable and strong. Negative correlations between hammer price and year 2008 and year 2009 are expected.

description: The purpose of this paper is to substantiate the necessity and technical possibilities of creating a coherent and intelligent digital tool for small and medium-sized enterprises’ (SME) segmentation, with the support of regional development agencies’ (RDAs) databases. This tool would allow RDAs to improve the monitoring of the financial and innovation support mechanisms for SMEs and enable a classification of the regional population of SMEs in the specific interest categories, such as Regional Innovation Strategies for Smart Specialisation (RIS3). As a result, the digitally supported methodology described in this paper contributes to enhancing the effectiveness and efficiency of regional support by analysing the impact of the received aid on the productivity of the innovative SMEs. Additionally, the paper provides a categorization of their industrial activity at a more detailed level. Finally, it is argued that those companies with the highest innovation potential could benefit the most from enhanced segmentation. Providing RDAs with data-driven decision tools means that more tailor-made innovation-support instruments can be designed (as opposed to unspecific support instruments). Moreover, the tools could make it easier to perform impact assessment (to justify the investment), from both a qualitative (e.g., a classification based on companies’ assets and merits in key areas for the region) and a quantitative (e.g., financial performance and indicators) point of view.

description: Die Modellierung von Geschäftsprozessen ist weit verbreitet. Bisher werden aber Anforderungen des Identitätsmanagements, insbesondere Anforderungen an die Zugriffskontrolle, nur separat in Spezifikationsdokumenten oder erst auf technologischer Ebene erfasst. Die fachlichen Hintergründe der Zugriffskontrollanforderungen legen eine Erfassung dieser bereits im Modell des Geschäftsprozesses durch die Fachabteilung nahe. Diese Arbeit stellt ein UML2-Profil für die Erweiterung des Aktivitätsdiagramms zur Erfassung von Zugriffskontrollaussagen vor. Auf Basis eines Metamodells kann die Fachabteilung sämtliche Zugriffskontrollanforderungen abbilden und dadurch die Konsistenz zwischen Geschäftsprozess und dessen Sicherheitsanforderungen auch über Änderungen hinweg erhalten.

description: Abstract: Background: Liquid biopsy based on cell-free DNA circulating in plasma has shown solid results as a non-invasive biomarker. In the present study we evaluated the utility of circulating free DNA (cfDNA) and the sub-type tumor DNA (ctDNA) in hepatocellular cancer (HCC) patients to assess therapy response and clinical outcome. Methods: A cohort of 13 patients recruited in the context of the SORAMIC trial with unresectable, advanced HCC and different etiological and clinicopathological characteristics was included in this exploratory study. Plasma samples were collected between liver micro-intervention and beginning of sorafenib-based systemic therapy and then in correspondence of three additional follow-ups. DNA was isolated from plasma and next generation sequencing (NGS) was performed on a panel of 597 selected cancer-relevant genes. Results: cfDNA levels showed a significant correlation with the presence of metastases and survival. In addition cfDNA kinetic over time revealed a trend with the clinical history of the patients, supporting its use as a biomarker to monitor therapy. NGS-based analysis on ctDNA identified 28 variants, detectable in different combinations at the different time points. Among the variants, HNF1A, BAX and CYP2B6 genes showed the highest mutation frequency and a significant association with the patients’ clinicopathological characteristics, suggesting a possible role as driver genes in this specific clinical setting. Conclusions: Taken together, the results support the prognostic value of cfDNA/ctDNA in advanced HCC patients with the potential to predict therapy response. These findings support the clinical utility of liquid biopsy in advanced HCC improving individualized therapy and possible earlier identification of treatment responders.

description: The renormalization-scale ($μ$) dependence of the two-loop inclusive semileptonic $b\to c\ell^-\barν_\ell$ decay rate is shown to be significant in the pole mass scheme, and the decay rate is shown to be poorly convergent in the MS-bar scheme. Three-loop contributions to the decay rate are estimated by developing Pade approximant techniques particularly suited to perturbative calculations in the pole mass scheme. An optimized Pade estimate of the three-loop contributions is obtained by comparison of the Pade estimates with the three-loop terms determined by renormalization-group invariance. The resulting three-loop estimate in the pole-mass scheme exhibits minimal sensitivity to the renormalization scale near $μ=1.0 GeV$, leading to an estimated decay rate of $192π^3Γ(b\to c\ell^-\barν_\ell)/(G_F^2|V_{cb}|^2)=992\pm 217 GeV^5$ inclusive of theoretical uncertainties and non-perturbative effects.

description: We examine whether establishing a new university (or faculty) in a region affects new firm creation within that given region. We identified a quasi-experimental design based on Spain’s 1983 University Reform Act, which opened the door to founding new universities at the regional level. We use a generalized difference-in-difference model to estimate this relationship. The results indicate that establishing a new university has a significant positive effect on new firm creation. We then introduce an analysis by the field of knowledge of the created university/faculty and the creation of firms in different categories of sectors defined according to their research and development intensity. In this case, the results show that creating a new university/faculty has a significant positive effect on firm formation in medium-high- and medium-low-technology manufacturing as well as in knowledge-intensive market and financial services. Moreover, creating a health faculty has a significant positive effect on new firm formation in the high-tech manufacturing sector. Finally, the results indicate ambiguous results from different sources of agglomeration economies.

description: Abstract: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are the main structural cell of blood vessels, and VSMC apoptosis occurs in vascular disease, after injury, and in vessel remodeling during development. Although VSMC apoptosis is viewed as silent, recent studies show that apoptotic cells can promote apoptosis-induced compensatory proliferation (AICP), apoptosis-induced apoptosis (AIA), and migration of both local somatic and infiltrating inflammatory cells. However, the effects of VSMC apoptosis on adjacent VSMCs, and their underlying signaling and mechanisms are unknown. We examined the consequences of VSMC apoptosis after activating extrinsic and intrinsic death pathways. VSMCs undergoing apoptosis through Fas/CD95 or the protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine transcriptionally activated interleukin 6 (IL-6) and granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), leading to their secretion. Apoptosis induced activation of p38MAPK, JNK, and Akt, but neither p38 and JNK activation nor IL-6 or GM-CSF induction required caspase cleavage. IL-6 induction depended upon p38 activity, while Fas-induced GM-CSF expression required p38 and JNK. Conditioned media from apoptotic VSMCs induced VSMC apoptosis in vitro, and IL-6 and GM-CSF acted as pro-survival factors for AIA. VSMC apoptosis was studied in vivo using SM22α-DTR mice that express the diphtheria toxin receptor in VSMCs only. DT administration induced VSMC apoptosis and VSMC proliferation, and also signficantly induced IL-6 and GM-CSF. We conclude that VSMC apoptosis activates multiple caspase-independent intracellular signaling cascades, leading to release of soluble cytokines involved in regulation of both cell proliferation and apoptosis. VSMC AICP may ameliorate while AIA may amplify the effects of pro-apoptotic stimuli in vessel remodeling and disease.

description: Die von der Medieninformatik betrachteten Phänomene in der digitalen Kultur sind sowohl durch die Vielfalt und Heterogenität der digitalen Medien als auch durch die sich schnell entwickelnden Interaktionsformen geprägt. Die Medieninformatik ist derjenige Teilbereich der Informatik, der sich mit allen Aspekten der Erzeugung, Aufbereitung und Verarbeitung, Distribution, Präsentation und Nutzung digitaler Medien und der Gestaltung von multimedialen und multimodalen Informationssystemen befasst. Stärker als in anderen Teilgebieten der Informatik rückt dabei die Mensch-Maschine-Interaktion in den Mittelpunkt. Daraus lässt sich unschwer folgern, dass es sich bei der Medieninformatik um ein (besonders) stark interdisziplinär geprägtes Feld handelt.
