description: Abstract: Traffic estimation is a crucial aspect of transportation planning to anticipate increasing mobility and provide transportation infrastructure. Traditional methods, such as household travel surveys and traffic counting, often require significant time and financial resources. Therefore, this study explores the use of geolocation data from Twitter as an alternative for projecting trip generation in East Bandung, a rapidly developing area with new facilities such as the Gelora Bandung Lautan Api Stadium and the Summarecon Bandung commercial area. Data were collected using the Twitter API over one year (November 2023–November 2024) within a 700-meter radius and analyzed through spatial mapping and the development of an origin-destination (OD) matrix. Validation was conducted using the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and the Spatially Weighted Structural Similarity Index (SW-SSIM). The results identified Gedebage, Arcamanik, and Rancasari as the areas with the highest trip generation concentrations. A MAPE of 18.5% and an SW-SSIM of 0.72 indicate that Twitter data is sufficiently representative for modeling mobility patterns. Despite limitations such as population bias, Twitter data offers cost and time efficiency, making it a potential alternative to support more adaptive and real-time data-driven transportation planning in urban areas like East Bandung.

description: Water allocation regimes in the Western United States and Alberta are compared to determine the applicability of the United States’ Indian reserved water rights doctrine, also known as the Winters doctrine, in the Treaty 7 area of Alberta. It is established that a significant difference in the division of powers between states and the federal government in the U.S., and provinces and the federal government in Canada, prevents application of the Winters doctrine in Canada. It is argued that the assumption of control over the Aboriginal interest in surface waters associated with Indian reserves through the North-west Irrigation Act, 1894 and the recognition and affirmation of Aboriginal and treaty rights in section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982 give rise to an obligation on the part of the Crown in right of Alberta to furnish priority water allocations for use on reserves in Treaty 7.
Transcriptome analysis of conifer defense against bark beetle-associated blue-stain fungi and white pine weevil
Creators: name: Kolosova, Natalia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Conifer forests are exposed to a large number of herbivorous insect species and pathogenic fungi, some of which cause extensive epidemics and substantial losses of forest resources. Bark beetles and white pine weevil represent major threats to conifer forest health. Bark beetles vector fungal pathogens, which are involved in killing of the host trees. Conifers employ a variety of defense strategies, including anatomical, chemical and molecular defense mechanisms. Recent development of conifer genomic resources and tools including large EST databases and microarrays have allowed for large-scale analysis of conifer defense. To evaluate transcriptome response of conifer species to fungal pathogens I performed a comparative analysis of the interior spruce (Picea glauca x engelmannii) response to spruce beetle-associated pathogenic blue-stain fungus Leptographium abietinum and the lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) response to mountain pine beetle-associated pathogenic blue-stain fungus Grosmannia clavigera using a 21,843-clone cDNA spruce microarray platform. In addition, I performed a direct comparison of the interior spruce response to inoculation with the fungus Leptographium abietinum with the response to white pine weevil (Pissodes strobi) herbivory. The microarray analyses revealed substantial changes in the transcriptomes of conifer hosts in response to fungal inoculation or insect feeding with more than a thousand genes significantly differentially expressed in each system and interaction studied. The fungus-induced transcriptomes of spruce and pine shared a large number of similarly responding transcripts with some differences in the dynamics of the induced responses. The transcriptome responses of spruce induced by fungal inoculation and weevil feeding had a large overlap and some treatment-specific trends. Among the most strongly up-regulated transcripts in all interactions were phenylpropanoid pathway transcripts, dirigent protein transcripts, laccases, chitinases and transcripts of the terpenoid pathway. Gene specific expression analysis of selected transcripts confirmed and extended the microarray analysis. Cloning and functional characterization of selected chitinases revealed the presence of chitinolytic activity in two interior spruce and one lodgepole pine class I chitinases. Chitinolytic activity in addition to the strong induction of these chitinases in response to different treatments supported their involvement in conifer defense.

description: The purpose of this research work is to show laboratory experiments conducted at 1500 psi and 350 C, experimentally simulating a reservoir located in the Gulf of the Mexico. The experiments conducted used a novel process that involved a hot fluid to be injected with an ultra-dispersed nano catalyst. The results obtained showed that API gravity can be improved permanently as well as its viscosity, with the advantage of no coke or solid deposits formation. Laboratory analyses showed that by using this new process it is possible to enter into the matrix zone, expelling at least partially the oil confined inside. As a consequence of the temperature increase, matrix rock may expand and expel its oil; while temperatures decrease, the pores in the matrix could be contracted, generating additional oil expulsion from this area. As a consequence of this expansion-contraction in the reservoir the reserves could be increased. Also, a change in the permeability appears due to the temperature increases. The present study was focused in oil matrix extraction and in situ oil upgrading from a naturally fractured reservoir of heavy oil as a result of a hot fluid injection with nano catalyst. Moreover, the effects of capillary pressure, mobility, viscous effects, wettability, and gravitational drainage on the process were analyzed. Another aspect that was studied is how the thermal expansion generated as a consequence of the process could expel the oil confined in the matrix.

description: Alpine watersheds represent an important source of freshwater in western Canada. Since rainfall, snowmelt, and glacier melt make minimal contributions to streamflow during winter months, essentially all winter flow in unregulated streams is provided by groundwater discharge. The analysis of winter flow in small to medium scale watersheds (21 to 3900 km2) provides critical information regarding the magnitude of groundwater discharge and its relation to the physiographical characteristics of watersheds such as climate, geology, and topography. Furthermore, hydrologic modelling of a small alpine watershed (4.5 km2) provides insight into the storage mechanisms controlling consistent winter flows. Winter flows were in a narrow range (0.2-0.6 mm d-1) throughout the study area, which suggests that the groundwater storage is filled to the maximum capacity every year, and that the groundwater discharge in winter is mostly controlled by the stationary factors such as the spatial variability of geology, topography, and climatic variables.

description: The purpose of this study is to investigate the spatial variability of glaciers and how topography affects disparate glacier response to climate change in the Canadian Cordillera. This research identifies topographic variables which may have affected glacier response to climate during and after the Little Ice Age (LIA). Changes in glacier area, shape, length, elevation, height, aspect, hypsometry, slope and upslope area were measured for sixteen glaciers from orthophotos and digital surface models (DSM). DSMs were created to represent glacier surface elevation in 2005. LIA glacier surfaces were reconstructed by interpolating the elevation along the former margin. Multivariate statistics were used to determine which topographic variables explained variance in glacier geometry. Glacier sensitivity scores based on the topographic characters of each glacier were developed and calculated. Glacier cover in the study area has decreased by 49.4 % with an estimated volume loss of 1.97 ± 0.2 km³.

description: This report ‘EIFFEL personas, co-designed scenarios and user requirements’ presents the results of co-design workshops held within each pilot Community of Practice (CoP), to define potential users (stakeholder) of the EIFFEL applications to be developed in each pilot. It should be noted that, currently, each CoP is in the process of being built in congruence with each PILOT’s application development. This report describes the applied methods and the findings, as started from the proposed structure of this task T2.1 ‘Co-design of climate-change related user stories/scenarios and project user requirements’ from the EIFFEL project plan as defined in the Grant Agreement (GA) (Table 1) [1]. Resulting from the workshops, the report describes for each of these potential EIFFEL users (‘EIFFEL Personas’), their user stories as co-designed by the PILOT’s community of practice (‘co-designed scenarios’) and the necessary and optional functionalities for those applications (‘user requirements’). As a project management tool, this report is deliverable D2.1 of the first task (T2.1) of EIFFEL work package 2 on ‘Co-Design of Climate Change applications based on GEOSS’. This deliverable serves as an input for the next task T2.2 ‘Specifications of the EIFFEL tools and Climate change applications’.

Regulation of Myocardin Expression and Activity in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

Subjects: subject: Biology--Molecular

subject: myocardin
subject: smooth muscle

description: The proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) plays a critical role in the development of various vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. In order for SMCs to proliferate, it is widely believed that cells undergo a phenotypic conversion from a differentiated contractile phenotype to a dedifferentiated synthetic phenotype. The transcription co-activator myocardin is well established to play a role in SMC differentiation and proliferation. Therefore, it is crucial to understand how myocardin expression and activity are regulated in VSMCs. We investigated the regulation of myocardin expression and activity in SMCs at two different levels. (1) Myocardin undergoes ubiquitylation and degradation via UPS, which leads to an increase in its transcriptional activity. However, the E3 ligase responsible for myocardin ubiquitylation has not been identified. Atrogin‐1 is a muscle-specific E3 ligase which down‐regulates myocardin protein during skeletal muscle differentiation. Therefore, it is possible that atrogin‐1 causes ubiquitylation, which leads to proteasome mediated degradation of myocardin protein in VSMCs, thereby increasing myocardin activity. Our results showed that in VSMCs, atrogin‐1 directly interacted with myocardin in the nuclei and caused ubiquitylation and subsequent proteasome mediated degradation of myocardin. UPS-mediated myocardin degradation increased myocardin transcriptional activity through an increase in RNA polymerase II recruitment to myocardin target gene promoters. Moreover, atrogin‐1 expression increased the contractility of VSMCs in vitro and increased the contractile response of mouse aortas to potassium chloride (KCl) and phenylephrine (PE) ex vivo. Atrogin-1 expression also decreased VSMC proliferation in vitro. (2) The NF‐κB pathway is activated by various cytokines such as TNFα. Moreover, myocardin is known to inhibit VSMC proliferation by inhibiting the NF‐κB pathway. However, how the NF‐κB pathway activated by TNFα regulates myocardin remains unknown. We found that TNFα down‐regulated myocardin expression and activity in dedifferentiated cultured VSMCs by activating the NF‐κB pathway. TNFα-mediated myocardin downregulation decreased contractility and increased proliferation in cultured VSMCs. In addition, we found that in differentiated VSMCs, TNFα prevented myocardin mRNA degradation, which resulted in a further increase in myocardin expression and activity. TNFα-mediated myocardin mRNA stabilization resulted in increased contractility of VSMCs.

A spectral analytic comparison of trace-class data augmentation algorithms and their sandwich variants
Creators: name: Khare, Kshitij
name: Hobert, James P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The data augmentation (DA) algorithm is a widely used Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm that is easy to implement but often suffers from slow convergence. The sandwich algorithm is an alternative that can converge much faster while requiring roughly the same computational effort per iteration. Theoretically, the sandwich algorithm always converges at least as fast as the corresponding DA algorithm in the sense that $\Vert {K^*}\Vert \le \Vert {K}\Vert$, where $K$ and $K^*$ are the Markov operators associated with the DA and sandwich algorithms, respectively, and $\Vert\cdot\Vert$ denotes operator norm. In this paper, a substantial refinement of this operator norm inequality is developed. In particular, under regularity conditions implying that $K$ is a trace-class operator, it is shown that $K^*$ is also a positive, trace-class operator, and that the spectrum of $K^*$ dominates that of $K$ in the sense that the ordered elements of the former are all less than or equal to the corresponding elements of the latter. Furthermore, if the sandwich algorithm is constructed using a group action, as described by Liu and Wu [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 94 (1999) 1264--1274] and Hobert and Marchev [Ann. Statist. 36 (2008) 532--554], then there is strict inequality between at least one pair of eigenvalues. These results are applied to a new DA algorithm for Bayesian quantile regression introduced by Kozumi and Kobayashi [J. Stat. Comput. Simul. 81 (2011) 1565--1578].

description: In the first of a series of forthcoming publications, we present a panchromatic catalog of 102 visually-selected early-type galaxies (ETGs) from observations in the Early Release Science (ERS) program with the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) of the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey-South (GOODS-S) field. Our ETGs span a large redshift range, 0.35 < z < 1.5, with each redshift spectroscopically-confirmed by previous published surveys of the ERS field. We combine our measured WFC3 ERS and ACS GOODS-S photometry to gain continuous sensitivity from the rest-frame far-UV to near-IR emission for each ETG. The superior spatial resolution of the HST over this panchromatic baseline allows us to classify the ETGs by their small-scale internal structures, as well as their local environment. By fitting stellar population spectral templates to the broad-band photometry of the ETGs, we determine that the average masses of the ETGs are comparable to the characteristic stellar mass of massive galaxies, 11< log(M [Solar]) < 12. By transforming the observed photometry into the GALEX FUV and NUV, Johnson V, and SDSS g' and r' bandpasses we identify a noteworthy diversity in the rest-frame UV-optical colors and find the mean rest-frame (FUV-V)=3.5 and (NUV-V)=3.3, with 1$σ$ standard deviations approximately equal to 1.0. The blue rest-frame UV-optical colors observed for most of the ETGs are evidence for star-formation during the preceding gigayear, but no systems exhibit UV-optical photometry consistent with major recent (

description: Data mining techniques must be developed and applied to analyse the large public data bases containing hundreds to thousands of millions entries. The aim of this study is to develop methods for locating previously unknown stellar clusters from the UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey catalogue data. The cluster candidates are computationally searched from pre-filtered catalogue data using a method that fits a mixture model of Gaussian densities and background noise using the Expectation Maximization algorithm. The catalogue data contains a significant number of false sources clustered around bright stars. A large fraction of these artefacts were automatically filtered out before or during the cluster search. The UKIDSS data reduction pipeline tends to classify marginally resolved stellar pairs and objects seen against variable surface brightness as extended objects (or "galaxies" in the archive parlance). 10% or 66 x 10^6 of the sources in the UKIDSS GPS catalogue brighter than 17 magnitudes in the K band are classified as "galaxies". Young embedded clusters create variable NIR surface brightness because the gas/dust clouds in which they were formed scatters the light from the cluster members. Such clusters appear therefore as clusters of "galaxies" in the catalogue and can be found using only a subset of the catalogue data. The detected "galaxy clusters" were finally screened visually to eliminate the remaining false detections due to data artefacts. Besides the embedded clusters the search also located locations of non clustered embedded star formation. The search covered an area of 1302 square degrees and 137 previously unknown cluster candidates and 30 previously unknown sites of star formation were found.

description: In this dissertation, nonlinear identi fication approaches are presented that construct Wienerand Hammerstein models. These are block-oriented models consisting of a memoryless nonlinearity either preceded or followed by a linear filter, respectively. The algorithms were developed to handle several practical challenges common in chemical process control applications. These challenges include systems running in closed-loop, incorporating non-stationary process disturbances, and with possibly unstable plant dynamics. Identifi cation methods based on the prediction error method are developed to address these challenges. One of the main factors required for successful application of PEM algorithms is having a good initial estimate of the system under study. In this work, Instrumental Variable scheme is used to initialize the Hammerstein models, and a non-iterative overparameterized algorithm is developed to initialize the Wiener models. In all cases, the algorithms are developed theoretically, and then validated using Monte Carlo simulations. The closed-loop Hammerstein identifi cation algorithms are validated using data from differential equation based simulation of a continuous stirred tank reactor.
The stability of influenza haemagglutinin and its significance for pathogenicity, transmission and control

description: Influenza A viruses are highly diverse and predominantly exist in animal reservoirs. In the rare but significant event that an influenza virus acquires the capability to jump from animal to human host, a pandemic can result. The most recent example of this occurred in 2009 when the pandemic H1N1 (pH1N1) virus emerged from swine causing the first influenza pandemic of the 21st century. Over the subsequent decade, it has circulated as a human seasonal virus, causing further morbidity and mortality worldwide. The ability of an influenza virus to infect and transmit between humans is multifactorial. In recent years, pH stability of the haemagglutinin (HA) surface protein has been realised as an important property associated with human adaptation and transmission. Understanding how pH stability impacts on virus/host interactions that support replication and transmission in humans is important for improving risk assessment of emerging viruses with pandemic potential. In this study, recombinant influenza viruses with point mutations that alter the pH stability of pH1N1 HA were used to investigate the consequences of pH stability for pathogenicity and transmissibility. The data show that a stable HA is beneficial for virus infectivity in the mammalian upper respiratory tract, enabling virus to withstand the acidic environment. Conversely, entry into host cells via endosomal uncoating is facilitated by a HA that is less pH stable. A novel technique for isolating influenza virus directly from air exhaled by infected ferrets revealed that HA stability enhances virus survival in airborne droplets. However, using the same apparatus airborne virus was not isolated from human volunteers infected with pH1N1 virus. Our findings indicate that different influenza viruses may show variation in how well they are controlled by antiviral strategies targeting pH-dependent steps in the virus replication cycle and how effective they are as part of nasally-administered live attenuated vaccines.

description: In industrial field, hydrocracking is conventionally used to upgrade crude oil and improve the quality of oil products. However, the high investment cost and strict experimental conditions limit the development of this technology. The utilization of methane, which is naturally available as the principal component of natural gas, to play the role of H donor, attracts the attentions from both the oil companies and the academic research. In this thesis, three catalytic formula are identified through the catalysts screening. All these catalysts show a significant viscosity reduction companied by acceptable coke yield, better stability and compatibility and the high liquid yield. With series of experiment results, it can be concluded that the catalysts promote the activation of methane and the incorporation into the product oil efficiently. The current achievement of this research can also further improves the commercial application feasibility of this technology.
Optical Spectral Singularities and Coherent Perfect Absorption in a Two-Layer Spherical Medium

description: An optical spectral singularity is a zero-width resonance that corresponds to lasing at threshold gain. Its time-reversal causes coherent perfect absorption of light and forms the theoretical basis of antilasing. In this article we explore optical spectral singularities of a two-layer spherical medium. In particular, we examine the cases that a gain medium is coated by a thin layer of high-refractive index glass and a spherical glass covered by a layer of gain material. In the former case, the coating reduces the minimum radius required for exciting spectral singularities and gives rise to the formation of clusters of spectral singularities separated by wide spectral gaps. In the latter case, the coating leads to a doubling of the number of spectral singularities.

Remarks. Hedychridium caputaureum has often been confused with H. roseum in the Nordic and Baltic countries and its distribution is still not well known. It has possibly been overlooked in Denmark and Norway. Compared to H. roseum, it is less common and strictly confined to areas with populations of its crabronid host Astata minor. It has been classified as vulnerable in Finland (Paukkunen 2010) and Sweden (Cederberg et al. 2010).
Arens (2010) considered caputaureum to be a subspecies of H. chloropygum, while Linsenmaier (1959) had earlier classified it as a subspecies of H. roseum. According to Arens, H. chloropygum consists of two subspecies in Europe: ssp. chloropygum (distributed from the Iberian peninsula to Hungary) and ssp. caputaureum (from central, southeastern and northern Europe). A third subspecies, ssp. ottomanum, is found in Asia Minor. The taxa spatium and densum of Linsenmaier (1959) were synonymized with ssp. caputaureum by Arens. We consider chloropygum and caputaureum to be separate species, as they are both well characterized and have partially overlapping distribution areas. Also e.g. Niehuis (2001) and Rosa (2006) treated H. caputaureum as a distinct species.

description: Metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is an incurable disease resistant to both radiation and cytotoxic chemotherapy. Although new molecularly targeted agents have increased the therapeutic options for patients with this disease, 5-year overall survival rates remain below 10%. The aim of this thesis was to determine the preclinical efficacy of reovirus as a monotherapy and in combination with sunitinib, a first line mRCC agent and multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor, for the treatment of RCC. To assess this, studies employing a panel of RCC cell lines, as well as a syngeneic immunocompetent murine model of RCC were utilized. Collectively, these studies demonstrate that reovirus is both a novel oncolytic and immunotherapeutic agent against RCC. Furthermore, our results provide the first evidence that sunitinib augments the anti-tumour immune response generated by an oncolytic virus. As such, this novel treatment paradigm has immediate clinical applicability for use against multiple tumour histologies, particularly RCC.
