Lost in transition : aquatic carbon dynamics along a pacific maritime headwater stream network
Creators: name: Wang, Brian Yanbo
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: The latest global estimates of CO₂ emissions from inland waters are equivalent to half of the annual anthropogenic emissions. However, this estimate categorized large emitting headwater streams in the same classification as lower turbulent rivers. To better understand the role of headwater stream, I monitored the same stream spaced 3.3 km apart (drainage areas of 7.8 and 9.0 km² respectively) in the UBC Malcolm Knapp Research Forest near Maple Ridge, British Columbia. The integrated an upstream-downstream perspective in the dataset can characterize the evolution of dissolved carbon as it moves through the landscape. Through PCA analysis and visualizing data in hydrographs, I identified differing water quality characteristics associated with a range of discharge conditions. Through timeseries analysis, this study identified seasonal trends, with DOC being highest in winter and correlated strongly with storm events. Dissolved CO₂ was highest in early spring to late summer and lowest in the winter. Additionally, I found distinct seasonal patterns of DOC export and pCO₂ evasion and changes in transport patterns that were associated with the transition from dry to wet conditions. During storm events, the CO₂ evasion became larger and DOC concentrations for the sites became more similar with each other. This study showed the complex coupling of DOC and pCO₂ with the surrounding landscape. In particular, periods of high turbulence might not coincide with periods of high pCO₂ supply, meaning that CO₂ evasion can be seen as supply and transport limited at different points in the hydrologic year. This field-centric study provided an annual dataset to a data scarce region and provided an evasion estimate of a turbulent headwater stream draining a carbon rich landscape. Overall, this study helps to quantify dissolved carbon processes from mountainous streams draining high carbon supply landscapes, contributing to future regional estimates.

description: We show that weakly-bound molecules can be probed by "shaking" in a pulsed nonresonant laser field. The field introduces a centrifugal term which expels the highest vibrational level from the potential that binds it. Our numerical simulations applied to the Rb$_2$ and KRb Feshbach molecules indicate that shaking by feasible laser pulses can be used to accurately recover the square of the vibrational wavefunction and, by inversion, also the long-range part of the molecular potential.

description: Transformation optics has recently attracted extensive interest, since it provides a novel design methodology for manipulating light at will. Although transformation optics in principle embraces all forms of electromagnetic phenomena on all length scales, so far, much less efforts have been devoted to near-field optical waves, such as surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). Due to the tight confinement and strong field enhancement, SPPs are widely used for various purposes at the subwavelength scale. Taking advantage of transformation optics, here we demonstrate that the confinement as well as propagation of SPPs can be managed in a prescribed manner by careful control of the dielectric material properties adjacent to a metal. Since the metal properties are completely unaltered, it provides a straightforward way for practical realizations. We show that our approach can assist to tightly bound SPPs over a broad wavelength band at uneven and curved surfaces, where SPPs would normally suffer significant scattering losses. In addition, a plasmonic waveguide bend and a plasmonic Luneburg lens with practical designs are proposed. It is expected that merging the unprecedented design flexibility based on transformation optics with the unique optical properties of surface modes will lead to a host of fascinating near-field optical phenomena and devices.

description: Palladium‐catalyzed couplings of silicon enolates with aryl electrophiles are of great synthetic utility, but often limited to expensive bromide substrates. A comparative experimental study confirmed that none of the established ligand systems allows to couple inexpensive aryl chlorides with α‐trimethylsilyl alkylnitriles. In contrast, ylide functionalized phosphines (YPhos) led to encouraging results. A statistical model was developed that correlates the reaction yields with ligand features. It was employed to predict catalyst structures with superior performance. With this cheminformatics approach, YPhos ligands were tailored specifically to the demands of Hiyama couplings. The newly synthesized ligands displayed record‐setting activities, enabling the elusive coupling of aryl chlorides with α‐trimethylsilyl alkyl nitriles. The preparative utility of the catalyst system was demonstrated by the synthesis of pharmaceutically meaningful α‐aryl alkylnitriles, α‐arylcarbonyls and biaryls.

description: Earth-abundant Mn-based oxide nanoparticles are supported on carbon nitride using two different immobilization methods and tested for the oxygen reduction reaction. Compared to the metal free CN, the immobilization of Mn oxide enhances not only the electrocatalytic activity but also the selectivity towards the 4e- reduction reaction of O2 to H2O. The XPS analysis reveals the interaction of the pyridine N species with Mn3O4 nanoparticles being particularly beneficial. This interaction is realized—although to a limited extent—when preparing the catalysts via impregnation; via the oleic acid route it is not observed. Whilst this work shows the potential of these systems to catalyze the ORR, the main limiting factor is still the poor conductivity of the support which leads to overpotential.

description: We describe in this article a multiagent urban traffic simulation, as we believe individual-based modeling is necessary to encompass the complex influence the actions of an individual vehicle can have on the overall flow of vehicles. We first describe how we build a graph description of the network from purely geometric data, ESRI shapefiles. We then explain how we include traffic related data to this graph. We go on after that with the model of the vehicle agents: origin and destination, driving behavior, multiple lanes, crossroads, and interactions with the other vehicles in day-to-day, ?ordinary? traffic. We conclude with the presentation of the resulting simulation of this model on the Rouen agglomeration.
Labour market preferences, attitudes and expectations of prospective health workers in Guinea
Creators: name: Herbst, Christopher H.
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2020

description: Background: This study identifies the stated attitudes, expectations, and locational job preferences (and factors influencing these preferences), of final year medical and nursing students in Guinea, West Africa. Such evidence can help design interventions that influence the supply side behaviour of graduates, and thus improve the availability and distribution of health workers in Guinea. Methods: The study uses a nationally representative cross-sectional survey design to sample 193 and 192 final year nursing and medical students, respectively, from across medical and nursing schools in Guinea. Percentage analysis and statistical tests were applied to explore differences in attitudes, expectations and locational preferences of medical and nursing students. Binary logistic regression was applied to identify predictors of the stated locational outcome variables (i.e. Conakry/outside Conakry, rural/urban, public/private, and national/abroad preferences of the health students). Results: The stated attitudes and expectations, in terms of working in the health labour market, differ for medical and nursing students in Guinea. For example, whereas both medical and nursing students expect to find good working conditions once posted, significantly more medical than nursing students expect to be posted into a job within 6 months of graduating, earn more from informal income generation activities, and find it acceptable to earn extra income during working hours and work less hours than stated in their contract. In terms of locational preferences, overall there is a strong short-term preference to work outside of Conakry, in urban locations, in the private sector, and to migrate abroad. The extent of these preferences varies between medical and nursing students, some of which change in the medium term, and are explained by a number of stated monetary and non-monetary factors, and statistically associated with and number of predictor variables that mostly vary between medical and nursing students. Conclusions: The study confirms the existing heterogeneity of attitudes, expectations and locational labor market preferences of medical and nursing students. There is a need for different education and labor market interventions, to mitigate unmet expectations and potentially disruptive attitudes, and to increase job uptake particularly in rural areas and to reduce migration abroad. The design of such interventions should take into account the different monetary and non- monetary, education and profile related factors that are influencing the supply side preference of medical and nursing students in Guinea.
Detecting DNA methylation using nanopore sequencing : from genome-wide analysis to haplotype-resolved and parent-of-origin phasing
Creators: name: Akbari, Vahid
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: DNA cytosine methylation is the most common epigenetic mark of the mammalian genome. This epigenetic modification is involved in different biological processes and its aberrations are involved in various disorders. While it is a well-studied epigenetic mark, the limitations of array-based and short-read technologies to detect DNA methylation have resulted in a gap in the study of allele-specific methylation and DNA methylation at repetitive genomic regions. Nanopore sequencing offers long-read sequencing and detection of both DNA bases and modification simultaneously. Therefore, offers the potential to overcome the caveats of previous technologies. In this thesis, I aimed to investigate genome-wide DNA methylation from nanopore sequence data and develop tools and workflows for the detection of allelic methylation using this technology and study genome-wide allele-specific methylation and imprinting. Moreover, I aimed to leverage long-read data and their methylation information to develop a novel approach for improved and parent-of-origin-aware phasing. I explored DNA methylation detection using nanopore sequencing and demonstrated that nanopore DNA methylation data are highly correlated with current widely used approaches. To detect allele-specific methylation using nanopore data, I developed the NanoMethPhase tool and workflow that enables detection of allele-specific methylation genome-wide. Using NanoMethPhase and nanopore sequencing data for several normal human cell lines, I explored genome-wide allele specific methylation and detected 42 novel imprinted regions and 7 large blocks of imprinted methylation. Using a combination of nanopore sequencing and strand-seq with methylation at human imprinted regions, I developed a novel methodology that enables the assignment of genomic variants to their parental origin without any data from parents. Finally, I used nanopore sequencing to study DNA methylation in advanced tumour samples from the personalized onco-genomics program at BC Cancer. I detected several hundred genes across tumour samples with tumour-specific allelic methylation and aberrant expression. I further detected several known imprinted regions with loss of imprinted methylation across tumour samples. Through these projects and studies, I developed tools and methods that enable allele-specific methylation analysis and parent-of-origin-aware genomic phasing. Moreover, I contributed to our understanding of allele-specific methylation and imprinting in normal and cancerous cells.

description: The multiquark confining potential is proportional to the total distance of the fundamental strings linking the quarks and antiquarks. We address the computation of the total string distance an of the Fermat points where the different strings meet. For a meson (quark-antiquark system) the distance is trivially the quark-antiquark distance. For a baryon (three quark system) the problem was solved geometrically from the onset, by Fermat and by Torricelli. The geometrical solution can be determined just with a rule and a compass, but translation of the geometrical solution to an analytical expression is not as trivial. For tetraquarks, pentaquarks, hexaquarks, etc, the geometrical solution is much more complicated. Here we provide an iterative method, converging fast to the correct Fermat points and the total distances, relevant for the multiquark potentials. We also review briefly the geometrical methods leading to the Fermat points and to the total distances.

description: We present an analysis of the structure and properties of the compact HII region Sh 2-89, and certain of the young stellar objects (YSOs) within this regime, using mid-infrared (MIR) mapping derived from the Spitzer Space Telescope (SST) and visual slit spectroscopy of the inner regions of the source. We show that the region has a bipolar structure, and contains a variety of Class I and II YSOs. Much of the MIR emission appears to be dominated by PAH emission bands, which cause strong increases in flux in the 5.8 and 8.0 microns photometric channels, whilst the variation of H_alpha, [NII] at 6583 A, [SII] at 6716+6731 A, and MIR emission profiles confirms the presence of complex ionisation fronts, and ionisation stratification.

description: ABSTRACT: Changing policy discourses and enrolment patterns of minority disadvantagedgroups have led increasingly to educational leaders being charged with inclusion, called themajor challenge facing educational systems worldwide. This largely qualitative study of IrishTraveller parents and Traveller preschools in Ireland explores inclusion, defined as aresponse to diversity intended to reduce and eliminate exclusion within and from education.Methods included focus group and individual interviews with Traveller parents, andinterviews with teachers and managers. The article is in three parts. The context of Travellers,Traveller education, inclusion and leadership is described. Secondly, data are presentedshowing that certain recognitive and distributive leadership practices were found to buildrelational schools and to support a marginalised minority ethnic population to feel includedand valued within the educational setting. Specifically, Travellers felt included in thepreschools and participated actively; inclusion was strengthened by practices such asintentional cultural representation, open-door policies and warm and supportive attitudes ofschool staff; and Travellers’ educational experiences and lack of confidence were inhibitorsto feeling included. Finally, some points for school leaders wishing to engage inclusively withminority populations are suggested. We conclude that leadership practices can advance orhinder the global inclusion project.Published in Leading & Managing, v24, 2, Nov 2018.

description: This paper gives an overview of previous work in which the authors used NASA's Formal Requirement Elicitation Tool (FRET) to formalise requirements. We discuss four case studies where we used FRET to capture the system's requirements. These formalised requirements subsequently guided the case study specifications in a combination of formal paradigms. For each case study we summarise insights gained during this process, exploring the expressiveness and the potential interoperability of these approaches. Our experience confirms FRET's suitability as a framework for the elicitation and understanding of requirements and for providing traceability from requirements to specification.

description: Change in body size can be driven by social (density) and non-social (environmental and spatial variation) factors. In expanding metapopulations, spatial sorting by means of dispersal on the expansion front can further drive the evolution of body size. However, human intervention can dramatically affect these founder effects. Using a long-term monitoring of the colonization of the remote Kerguelen islands by brown trout, a facultative anadromous salmonid, we analyse body size variation in 32 naturally founded and 10 human-introduced populations over 57 years. In naturally founded populations, we find that spatial sorting promotes slow positive changes in body size on the expansion front, then that body size decreases as populations get older and local density increases. This pattern is, however, completely different in human-introduced populations, where body size remains constant or even increases as populations get older. The present findings confirm that changes in body size can be affected by metapopulation expansion, but that human influence, even in very remote environments, can fully alter this process.

description: A critical re-examination of the double-slit experiment and its variants is presented to clarify the nature of what Feynmann called the ``central mystery'' and the ``only mystery'' of quantum mechanics, leading to an interpretation of complementarity in which a `wave {\em and} particle' description rather than a `wave {\em or} particle' description is valid for the {\em same} experimental set up, with the wave culminating in the particle sequentially in time. This interpretation is different from Bohr's but is consistent with the von Neumann formulation as well as some more recent interpretations of quantum mechanics.

description: Change in body size can be driven by social (density) and non-social (environmental and spatial variation) factors. In expanding metapopulations, spatial sorting by means of dispersal on the expansion front can further drive the evolution of body size. However, human intervention can dramatically affect these founder effects. Using a long-term monitoring of the colonization of the remote Kerguelen islands by brown trout, a facultative anadromous salmonid, we analyse body size variation in 32 naturally founded and 10 human-introduced populations over 57 years. In naturally founded populations, we find that spatial sorting promotes slow positive changes in body size on the expansion front, then that body size decreases as populations get older and local density increases. This pattern is, however, completely different in human-introduced populations, where body size remains constant or even increases as populations get older. The present findings confirm that changes in body size can be affected by metapopulation expansion, but that human influence, even in very remote environments, can fully alter this process.

description: Indexing learning documents using the Learning Object Metadata (LOM) is often carried out manually by archivists. Filling out the LOM fields is a long and difficult task, requiring a complete reading and a full knowledge on the topic dealt within the document. In this paper, we present an innovative model and method to assist the archivists in finding the important concepts and keywords of a learning document. The application is performed using wikipedia's category links.

description: Communal breeding, wherein multiple conspecifics live and reproduce together, may generate short-term benefits in terms of defence and reproduction. However, its carry-over effects remain unclear. We experimentally tested the effects of communal breeding on parental care and reproduction in burying beetles (Nicrophorus vespilloides), which use carcasses as breeding resources and provide parental care to offspring. We subjected individuals to communal or non-communal breeding (i.e. pair breeding) during their first breeding event and to non-communal breeding during their second breeding event. We measured the parental care of individuals and of groups and the reproductive success of groups during both breeding events. In communal groups, large individuals became dominant and largely monopolized the carcass, whereas small individuals (i.e. subordinates) had restricted access to the carcass. At the first breeding event, large males in communal groups spent more time providing care than large males in non-communal groups, whereas such an effect was not observed for large females and small individuals. Reproductive successes were similar in communal and non-communal groups, indicating no short-term benefits of communal breeding in terms of reproduction. Compared to males from non-communal groups, males originating from communal groups produced a larger size of brood during their second breeding event, whereas such an effect was not observed for females. Our results demonstrate the sex-specific effects of communal breeding experience on parenting performance and fitness.

description: A common denominator for most therapy treatments for children who suffer from an anxiety disorder is daily practice routines to learn techniques needed to overcome anxiety. However, applying those techniques while experiencing anxiety can be highly challenging. This paper presents the design, implementation, and pilot study of a tactile hand-held pocket robot AffectaPocket, designed to work alongside therapy as a focus object to facilitate coping during an anxiety attack. The robot does not require daily practice to be used, has a small form factor, and has been designed for children 7 to 12 years old. The pocket robot works by sensing when it is being held and attempts to shift the child's focus by presenting them with a simple three-note rhythm-matching game. We conducted a pilot study of the pocket robot involving four children aged 7 to 10 years, and then a main study with 18 children aged 6 to 8 years; neither study involved children with anxiety. Both studies aimed to assess the reliability of the robot's sensor configuration, its design, and the effectiveness of the user tutorial. The results indicate that the morphology and sensor setup performed adequately and the tutorial process enabled the children to use the robot with little practice. This work demonstrates that the presented pocket robot could represent a step toward developing low-cost accessible technologies to help children suffering from anxiety disorders.

description: Mon sujet de travail est la gestion de la douleur chez les patients de moins de 18 ans atteints de la drépanocytose. En effet, ces patients souffrent des douleurs dues aux crises vaso-occlusives qui découlent de la mauvaise irrigation sanguine de certains organes. Ces douleurs peuvent être vives et brutales dans certaines parties du corps et peuvent, à la longue, entraîner la destruction de certains organes ou parties d’organes. La connaissance des infirmiers sur ce sujet est insuffisante malgré que cette maladie soit fréquente dans le monde. Cette insuffisance laisse paraître des attitudes qui sont à l’encontre d’une prise en soins de qualité et qui occasionnent des difficultés en ce qui concerne les interventions infirmières dans la gestion de la douleur vaso- occlusive drépanocytaire.

description: We perform non-LTE calculations of lithium in late-type stars for a wide range of stellar parameters, including quantum mechanical cross-sections for collisions with neutral hydrogen and the negative hydrogen ion. Non-LTE abundance corrections for the lithium resonance line at 670.7nm and the subordinate line at 610.3nm, are calculated using 1D MARCS model atmospheres spanning a grid Teff=[4000,8000]K, log(g)=[1.0,5.0], and [Fe/H]=[0.0,-3.0], for lithium abundances in the range A(Li)=[-0.3,4.2]. The competing effects of ultraviolet over-ionization and photon losses in the resonance line govern the behaviour of the non-LTE effects with stellar parameters and lithium abundance. The size and sign of the non-LTE abundance corrections vary significantly over the grid for the 670.7nm line, but are typically positive and below 0.15dex for the 610.3nm, line. The new collisional data play a significant role in determining the abundance corrections.

Search for WW and WZ production in lepton plus jets final state at CDF

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: We present a search for WW and WZ production in final states that contain a charged lepton (electron or muon) and at least two jets, produced in sqrt(s) = 1.96 TeV ppbar collisions at the Fermilab Tevatron, using data corresponding to 1.2 fb-1 of integrated luminosity collected with the CDF II detector. Diboson production in this decay channel has yet to be observed at hadron colliders due to the large single W plus jets background. An artificial neural network has been developed to increase signal sensitivity, as compared with an event selection based on conventional cuts. We set a 95% confidence level upper limit of sigma_{WW}* BR(W->lnu,W->jets)+ sigma_{WZ}*BR(W->lnu,Z->jets) <2.88 pb, which is consistent with the standard model next to leading order cross section calculation for this decay channel of 2.09+-0.12 pb.

The genome of black spruce : genome annotation & analyses

description: Abiotic and biotic stresses associated with climate change have been identified as a dominant cause of forest tree mortality in boreal forests. Some tree populations may have the capacity for rapid adaptation or migration to keep pace with changing environmental conditions. One species of interest is black spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.] B.S.P.) as adaptive variation in relation to climate change has previously been reported for this transcontinental North American conifer. As exhibited in studies of other economically important forest trees, genomic resources play a critical role in advancing our understanding of the genomic basis of adaptive variation; however, such resources are lacking for black spruce, with the few available being predominantly transcriptome-related. This thesis describes the first genome assembly of P. mariana with a reconstructed genome size of 18.3 Gbp and NG50 scaffold length of 36.0 kbp. A total of 66,332 protein-coding sequences were predicted in silico and annotated based on sequence homology. To showcase the value of this new genomic resource, phylogenetic and comparative genomics analyses were performed. Phylogenetic trees were estimated from the nuclear and organelle genome sequences of P. mariana and five other spruces. The phylogenetic tree estimated from mitochondrial genome sequences agrees with biogeography; specifically, P. mariana was strongly supported as a sister lineage to P. glauca and three other taxa found in western North America, followed by the European P. abies. In contrast, mixed topologies with weaker statistical support were obtained in phylogenetic trees estimated from nuclear and chloroplast genome sequences, indicative of ancient reticulate evolution affecting these two genomes. Clustering of protein-coding sequences from the six Picea taxa and two Pinus species resulted in 34,776 orthogroups, 560 of which appeared to be specific to P. mariana. Analysis of these specific orthogroups and dN/dS analysis of positive selection signatures for 497 single-copy orthogroups indicate gene functions mostly related to plant development and stress response. The P. mariana genome assembly and annotation provides a valuable resource for forest genetics research and applications in this broadly distributed species, especially in relation to climate adaptation.
