– Secteur San Petrone, commune de San Giovanni di Moriani, à mi-chemin entre le col de Cernitojo et la Punta Aragone, versant nord, sur la corniche, un individu, 16.6.2012, Delage, A. s.n. (Hb. CBNC), pointage GPS et photos; commune de San Giovanni di Moriani, versant nord du Monte Olmelli, à 160 mètres à l’est du sommet, sous la crête, plus d’une dizaine d’individus, 26.4.2017, Delage A., M.-A. Santucci, L. Garraud & J. Van Es s.n. (Hb. CBNC), photos.
Cette espèce très rare (RR) était uniquement connue du Monte Muffraghje (voir GAMISANS & PIQUEMAL, Candollea 55: 63, 2000), dans la partie centrale du massif du San Petrone. Dans cette nouvelle localité, les plantes poussent en versant nord, dans une pelouse arborée à Sesleria insularis Sommier, sur des gradins schisto-calcaires très pentus. Dans la première station l’unique individu, implanté juste sur la corniche, est fortement brouté et très rabougri, comme c’est le cas au Monte Muffraghje. Par contre dans la deuxième station, les plantes sont inaccessibles au bétail et correctement développées, atteignant 150 cm de haut. L’identification des Cotoneaster est souvent difficile et des questions ont été émises sur l’identité des plantes corses (Fl. Gallica, TISON & DE FOUCAULT: 980-981, 2014). Les individus observés semblent clairement se rapporter à C. integerrimus et des prélèvements ont été effectués afin de formaliser définitivement leur appartenance.

The effects of competition on market segment selection
Creators: name: Umar, Setiadi

Year: 2017

description: In this research, we investigate the dynamics of firms' segment selection, in which segments a firm decides to enter and compete, and in which segments a firm decides to exit, from a competitive perspective. Specifically, we examine how firms make segment selection by simultaneously considering seemingly contradictory effects: the segment competitive condition predicts that firms avoid competition and imitation effects that influence firms to imitate each other and to cluster together. To investigate this, we observed positional moves of firms operating in the U.S. automobile industry between 1950 and 1993 (annual panel data) with around 11,000 items of complete observations with an unbalanced time series cross sectional panel. The data recorded 723 segment entries and 627 segment exits. A discrete time event history analysis with time-varying independent variables was employed to estimate the effects of the independent variables on the probability of a company conducting segment entry or exit in a specific segment.  The results suggest that although firms tend to avoid their competitors, the fear of losing market opportunity makes firms follow and imitate each other, and thus mitigate their effort to reduce the competition.

Imperial Japan and English language press
Creators: name: Weeden, Garrett
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: This thesis seeks to use English language publications to help shine a light on Pan-Asianism as an ideology in regards to Manchuria and the Empire as a whole. The Japanese Empire was a transnational one and one that existed during a time of increasing internationalism. In the field there has not been as much attention to the role that Pan-Asianism has played in the foreign relations of Japan. I will study this by using English language Pan-Asianist texts as well as Japanese governmental and semi-governmental publication cross-referenced with United States Department of State archive to see the effect of such texts on the ideology. The effect was usually negligible, but the reasons and avenue that it was pursued may be even more important and interesting. The focus is on the time period from 1931 until 1934 because that it when the massive changes occurred in Japan within a rapidly changing international environment. Manchuria and Manchukuo represented the point on which change was catalyzed. It was from this moment that captured world attention that a need to publish English language texts became clear to the government and its allies. These publications would do the work of telling the story of Japan to the West and convince them of the Empireâ€™s righteousness. The direct appeal to the publics of foreign nations coincides with the beginning of central control of the mass media within Japan. The analysis of English language publications shows that they were part of a convergence of media, an ideology and the state. Pan-Asianism could be found in these documents that sought not only to convince Western audiences of the correctness of Japanese actions, but also to attract investment and interest in the new state. However, this would be on the terms of the Japanese government rather than an open door. Pan-Asianism and the Manchukuo were integral to the formation of imperialist Japanese state in the 1930â€™s. Through looking at English language publications I seek to see through a new lens the foreign policy of Japan and how it viewed itself in these non-official channels of international interactions.

The breakdown of social contracts in Michoacán, Mexico
Creators: name: Walsh, Remy M.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2017

description: Michoacán, Mexico has become a breeding ground for public corruption, drug trafficking organizations, vigilante gangs, and other large-scale criminal enterprises. U. S. Congressional research, data provided by the Drug Enforcement Agency, and responses from the Obama White House administration recognize these problems in Mexico and suggest that the rising crime epidemic in Mexico will continue to grow.    The continued discovery of public corruption, accompanied by a growing violent crime rate in Michoacán, has created a backlash from its citizens. Some of these citizens have gone to extreme lengths in combating their current criminal environment, forming vigilante self-defense groups, which occasionally act more similarly to some terrorist organizations, sometimes carrying out public executions of heads of major drug trafficking organizations.    Historically, similar vigilante self-defense groups have operated in Michoacán with promises to protect the people of Michoacán as the government continues to fail its citizens. However, these self-defense groups later transitioned from self-defense groups to criminal organizations and large-scale drug traffickers.    In addition to the problems of vigilante self-defense groups, Mexico’s government has seen an increase in the number of criminal organizations operating within the country. The increase in criminal organization numbers is in part due to a splintering of the largest drug trafficking organizations into smaller independent groups.    The splintering of large-scale drug trafficking organizations, combined with the growing number of vigilante self-defense groups, have created an environment conducive to violent “turf wars” between gangs. These turf wars affect the citizens of Michoacán more than ever before. The splintering of gangs and the subsequent turf wars have resulted in an increase in violent crimes such as homicide, vehicle theft, and business theft.    The citizens of Michoacán are no longer able to trust the government after continued incidents of public corruption poor education for Michoacán’s children, and failures in public safety. These failures signify a complete breakdown of the social contracts between citizens and the government. However, research suggests that increased education to its citizens, and law enforcement actions directed towards areas where there is statistical higher crime rates may help reduce the states overall crime rate, while having a positive impact on public safety. Increased spending in these areas may help combat the current criminal environment in Michoacán.

description: Phosphorus (P) recovery from sewage sludge ash (SSA) is considered to be an effective method for P recovery. In this work, P extraction and the removal of heavy metals were realized by electrodialysis. Low-cost, easily available, and environmentally friendly plant extracts were applied as suspension to reduce the inevitable secondary pollution. And the feasibility of using plant extracts was analysed by comparing with using deionized water (DI) and oxalic acid (OA) solution. When SSA was suspended in different solutions (DI, OA, and three plant extracts – Hovenia acerba (HA), Saponin (SA) and Portulaca oleracea (PO)), the effects of reaction time and plant extract concentration on P extraction and heavy metal separation of SSA under ED treatment were compared. After the process of electrodialysis, compared to other experimental groups, electrodialysis with plant extracts obtained more P released from SSA, but less P migrated to the anode chamber. However, when SSA was suspended in PO at a concentration of 80 g/L, the proportion of P transferred from SSA to the anode chamber can still reached 37.86%. In addition, the use of plant extracts as suspension had a positive effect on the removal of heavy metals, but its effect was lower than that of the oxalic acid-treated experimental group. The results indicated that the use of plant extracts for wet-chemical extraction combined with electrodialysis promoted the removal of heavy metals and the extraction of P from SSA, which is a feasible option.
A general class of heuristics for constrained forest and cycle problems

Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 1993

description: Let G = (V, E) be a connected, undirected, edge-weighted graph. A subgraph of G satisfying a certain criteria will be called an optimal solution if its total edge-weight is minimum among all subgraphs satisfying the given criteria. The minimum spanning tree (MST) of G is its optimal spanning tree. The constrained forest problem (CFP), a more general version of the MST/is the problem of finding an optimal spanning forest in which each tree spans at least m, a given number of vertices. When n = |Vj is a multiple of m, a variation of the CFP is the exact constrained forest problem (ECFP), where each tree spans exactly m vertices. We shall also refer to ECFP as the m-subtree problem. For m = 2, the m-subtree problem reduces to the minimum weight perfect matching problem which is the problem of finding an optimal set of edges such that each vertex is incident to exactly one edge. The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is the problem of finding an optimal tour (Hamiltonian cycle) covering all the vertices in V. A more general version of the TSP is the constrained cycle problem (CCP), which is the problem of finding an optimal set of vert ex-disjoint cycles each covering at least m vertices. For m — 3 the CCP reduces to the so-called 2-matching problem and for m = 4 to the triangle-free 2-matching problem. When n is a multiple of m, a variation of the CCP is the exact constrained cycle problem (ECCP) where each cycle covers exactly m vertices. We shall also refer to the ECCP as the m-perfect matching problem. Except for the boundary cases of the above mentioned problems e.g. MST, the perfect matching problem, these problems are NP-hard. A crucial component of the thesis is a fast 2-approximate heuristic for the CFP which is proved to be iVP-hard for m < 3. From this heuristic, under the assumption of the triangle inequality, we obtain a 4-approximate heuristic for the CCP and a general class of heuristics for the ECFP and the ECCP. In addition to the heuristic for the CFP, this general class of heuristics is a powerful combination of the Onethird and the hypergreedy heuristics for perfect matching. This class of heuristics allows adjustable time complexity and is capable of producing approximate solutions within either a constant or a very slowly growing function of n times the optimal weight.

description: Phytoremediation enhanced by electric field has been considered a green and low-cost technology for remediating heavy metal-contaminated soils. Soil moisture is a main environmental factor that affects Cd availability in the soil. However, the effects of soil moisture and AC-electric field on the remediation efficiency of willow (Salix spp.) and S. Alfredii interplanted together remain unclear. In the present study, we designed four treatments (60% soil field capacity, 60% soil field capacity + 0.5 V·cm−1 AC, 100% soil field capacity, 100% soil field capacity + 0.5 V·cm−1 AC) to explore the impacts of soil moisture and AC-electric field on soil Cd availability and Cd accumulation in plants. The results showed that the application of an AC-electric field significantly increased soil Cd availability by 20.9% and 10.8% under both 60% and 100% soil field capacity, respectively. Both high water with and without AC-electric field treatments reduced the proportion of acid-extractable and reducible Cd of soil but increased the proportion of residual Cd. Compared with the control, an AC-electric field with 60% soil field capacity significantly enhanced the biomass of S. Alfredii shoots by 31.2% and increased Cd accumulation in willow leaves and S. Alfredii shoots by 14.6% and 32.3%, respectively. In addition, the biomass production of willow was significantly enhanced but the uptake of Cd by willow was dramatically decreased under an AC-electric field with high water treatment. Therefore, these results suggest that the AC-electric field combined with 60% soil field capacity may be a more promising remediation technique to clean up the Cd-contaminated soil.

description: Food waste offers a potential source for bioethanol production, but productivity depends on the chemical composition of the raw materials and the processes involved. However, assessment of the environmental sustainability of these processes is often absent and can be carried out using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology. This study aimed to perform an LCA on bioethanol production from mixtures of different wastes, including tubers, fruits, and processed foods, focusing on the gate-to-gate phase. The inventory included a standard scenario and an optimized scenario, which eliminated drying and replaced the phosphate buffer with citric acid. To assess impacts and damages, the Ecoinvent 3.4 database and the ReCiPe 2016 method were used, while uncertainty analysis was carried out using Monte Carlo simulation with the aid of SimaPro software version 8.5.0.0. Results indicate that processed food blends generate the greatest environmental impacts in all scenarios evaluated. The fermentation stage is the largest contributor to environmental impacts and damage when energy consumption is considered. Without energy consumption, pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis become more significant. The most notable categories of environmental impacts and damages are Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Resources. The optimized scenario showed a lower environmental impact compared to the standard scenario, highlighting its potential for more sustainable bioethanol production.

Trois nouvelles stations pour ce taxon très rare dans l’île. Si l’espèce était déjà connue du col de Vergio, seul le var. procumbens (Ascherson) Natali & Dutartre y avait été récolté (voir NATALI & DUTARTRE, Candollea 50: 578-583, 1995). Elle est en revanche nouvelle pour le secteur Ospedale-Cagna. Chez cette dernière population les échantillons récoltés ne présentent aucune pilosité étalée ou elle est limitée à quelques poils. Les individus prélevés ou photographiés au col de Vergio montrent quant à eux une pilosité étalée très nette bien que peu abondante, alors que la plante de Tenda a une pilosité nette, rétrorse et relativement abondante. Le taxon passe au statut R (rare).

description: Phosphorus is an indispensable and irreplaceable element in the ecosystem. Based on the ability of ferrate(VI) to remove phosphate by producing iron phosphate, a new method for using ferrate(VI) to treat hypophosphite has been studied. In this study, ferrate was added to the hypophosphate solution in a controlled manner, and the oxidation efficiency of ferrate(VI) on hypophosphate was studied under various initial pH conditions, when the pH value of 6.0, the hypophosphate oxidation rate reached 14.0%. Research findings, Ferrate recovered hypophosphate through precipitation and adsorption under various initial pH conditions. To further investigate the mechanism of hypophosphate recovery, the morphology and microstructure of the deposition were analysed using Fourier transform infrared, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The kinetic process of ferrate recovery from hypophosphate was analysed. The recovery process follows second-order reaction kinetics, and the reaction rate is highest at pH 6.0. The value of kA1 is 1.742 × 10−2. This study shows that ferrate (VI) is a promising treatment tool for low-cost phosphate wastewater. Furthermore, this method offers a clean phosphorus recovery process without the generation of harmful substances.

– Secteur Rinosu, commune d’Ajaccio, rive gauche de la Gravona, sous le pont de la RN 196, dans les gabions de la berge, une dizaine de tiges, 21.10.2016, Delage, A. & T. Fernez s.n. (Hb. CBNC) (fig. 2B).
Xénophyte nouvelle pour la flore de Corse, originaire de l’est de l’Amérique du Nord. La plante est assez robuste, atteignant 40 cm, et présente de grandes feuilles alternes, pétiolées, à limbe largement elliptique et sagitté. Les nervures sont particulièrement saillantes à la face inférieure. L’inflorescence est axillaire, opposée aux feuilles, en longue grappe spiciforme étroite et dense, retombante, à fleurs blanches. Cette espèce est également naturalisée dans le Maine-et-Loire, où la plante considérée comme envahissante fait l’objet d’un programme d’éradication (voir TISON & DE FOUCAULT, Fl. Gallica: 1042, 2014). La prudence commanderait la mise en place d’une telle action en Corse, tant que la faiblesse des effectifs le permet. Une campagne de prospection le long de la Gravona semble également nécessaire.

description: Owing to its unique physico-chemical properties, europium is one of the most precious and sought-after rare earth elements in the field of high technology. The major economic and commercial importance of such an element, combined with the pollution risks associated with its intensive use, require the development of efficient and eco-compatible recovery and recycling processes. This study focuses on the recovery of europium from highly saline sulphate media (0.5 mol/L) using an environmentally friendly two-phase aqueous extraction technique (known as cloud point extraction (CPE)), using 2((phenylimino)methyl)phenol mono-Schiff base (HPIMP) as the extractant and Triton X-100 as the non-ionic surfactant. The influence of key experimental parameters such as pH, extractant concentration, surfactant concentration and separation temperature on the europium extraction process was systematically studied and optimized. Under optimum experimental conditions, a quasi-quantitative extraction with a minimal volume fraction of surfactant-rich phase (φs = 0.025), and concentration factor of (CF = 38) was achieved at pH 9.8, in one stage. The analysis of the extraction data revealed that the CPE of europium(III) takes place by a cation exchange-solvation mechanism. The stoichiometry of the complex extracted into the surfactant-rich phase was ascertained to have a composition of 1:2 [Eu:HPIMP] with the slope analysis method. A higher extraction constant was obtained for CPE compared with conventional solvent extraction, confirming the feasibility and usefulness of CPE for Eu(III) recovery. On the other hand, this new HPIMP/Triton X-100 chelating system showed superior extractability for Eu(III) in the CPE process relative to other systems reported previously.

description: The aim of this thesis is to develop circular manure management strategies to reduce environmental risks and improve the sustainability of the Australian dairy farming sector. Circular technologies target the beneficial recycling of resources contained in dairy manure residues, such as nutrients and organic matter, for bioenergy production. Measurements are performed on liquid manure residues (effluent) from various dairy farms across Australia and reveal material amounts of nutrients, but there are no significant differences in nutrient concentrations amongst different dairy production system types (i.e. grazing vs. intensive dairies). However, there are notable differences in total nutrient capture rates (recovery potential) between different systems. Unfortunately, measurements confirmed dairy effluent is usually heavily diluted, making its transport, further processing, and beneficial use less viable. Cleaning strategies also affected dilution, requiring recovery methods such as solid-liquid separation. A modular solid-liquid separation technology is applied at full-scale at a commercial dairy. Without chemicals (lime and flocculant), only 25.9% particulate matter and 33.4% organic particle matter are recovered into the solid fraction, but the filtrate is more usable for irrigation. The solid fraction is also stackable and easily transportable for further processing and reuse. Lime and polymer flocculant enabled nitrogen and phosphorus recovery into the solid fraction, at ~54% and up to 91%, respectively. This provides circular options for farmers. A first biochemical methane potential of grazing dairy effluent is reported, specifically 161 LCH4 ·kg-1 volatile solids. Important effects of on-farm manure separation were also evaluated. This is important to evaluate renewable biogas recovery potential and is essential for sector emissions accounting. Overall, the data and findings of the thesis were invaluable to understand closed-loop system options, estimating recovery potential, and evaluating approaches to reduce manure-management greenhouse gas emissions across Australian dairy farms.

Nouvelles stations de cette plante exotique envahissante notoire, signalée comme naturalisée sur l’île depuis 1991, à Lama (LAMBINON, Candollea 47: 286, 1992), Rutali, Venaco et Vivario (JEANMONOD et al., Candollea 47: 286, 1992). On peut constater qu’elle s’étend notablement dans l’île, en particulier dans une grande partie du secteur San Petrone, et qu’il n’y a que les secteurs Cintu, Ospedale-Cagna et Bonifacio où elle n’a pas encore été observée mais où elle est probablement déjà présente. Ces nouvelles stations la font passer au statut PF (peu fréquent).
