title:  Produzione e performance economiche delle aziende agricole biologiche in Italia
Creators: name: Giuca, Sabrina
Publisher: name: RomaTrE-Press
Year: 2018

description: L’Italia è tra i dieci maggiori paesi produttori di prodotti biologici del Mondo ed è seconda dietro alla Spagna, tra i paesi UE, per superficie investita ad agricoltura biologica. Il nostro Paese è il secondo esportatore di alimenti e bevande biologici dopo gli USA e si colloca tra i primi posti, a livello globale, per la produzione di vino biologico. Nella produzione agricola nazionale, il settore dei prodotti biologici sta dunque assumendo un’importanza crescente, trainato dai consumi e dal dualismo che connota il settore produttivo, con piccoli produttori, da un lato, e grandi produttori e un forte ruolo della GDO, dall’altro. A fronte di un trend favorevole che interessa il settore biologico, anche a livello globale, diversi studi hanno posto a confronto il sistema di produzione biologico e quello convenzionale con riguardo agli elementi in grado di influire sulle performance economiche delle aziende con risultati non sempre concordanti anche per diversità delle metodologie adottate e dei gruppi di confronto. In questo contributo, l’esame delle performance economiche delle aziende biologiche attraverso i dati 2014 dell’indagine CREA-RICA, mette a confronto un campione significativo di aziende agricole italiane biologiche e convenzionali e rivela come il metodo biologico possa rappresentare un’alternativa economicamente valida al sistema convenzionale, soprattutto con riferimento alla remunerazione del lavoro. Nelle aziende biologiche risultano mediamente superiori sia il valore della produzione, sia il reddito netto, con una maggiore propensione verso le attività connesse a quelle agricole, come agriturismo e fattorie didattiche, possibile elemento di stabilizzazione dei redditi. Tuttavia, le performance economiche dipendono dalle colture, dalle varietà, dalle tecniche di coltivazione e dalle condizioni agro-ecologiche; inoltre, in uno scenario in continua evoluzione giocano il loro ruolo elementi esterni, quali il sostegno al settore e la promozione del bio ‘Made in Italy’.

description: Since March 10, 2020, we have been tracking effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on respondents to the nationally representative Understanding America Study (UAS). After an initial survey that covered March 10–31, 2020, we launched tracking surveys every two weeks. Every day, about 500 respondents are invited to take the survey for a total of about 7,000 respondents over a two-week period. Results are shared in a variety of ways. About 3,000 graphs are updated every night, with the corresponding tab-delimited text files available for download. The underlying micro-data are available for registered researchers after the end of each four-week field period. The paper describes the set-up of the tracking survey, lists the main topics covered and highlights a number or early results. Our ambition is to keep tracking the experiences of U.S. households for as along as the pandemic lasts.

description: As the Corona-Crisis unfolds, scholars around the world realize that the social contexts in which its transmission occurs deserve special attention. In this context, one of the main concepts social scientists should consider to help tackling this crisis is vulnerability. This paper proposes a methodology to study vulnerable populations during the COVID-19 pandemic in the city of Curitiba, one of the main Brazilian metropolises. The proposed methodology encompasses three different strategies, in a mixed-methods approach: i. In-depth telephone interviews with vulnerable people and community leaders who work with them; ii. Online surveys with the city’s general population; iii. Focus groups coupled with alternative scenarios methods involving key actors in the community life of the city. In addition to the research findings themselves, our methodology also envisages fostering initiatives by public authorities and civil society to mitigate the effects of the pandemic over vulnerable populations.

description: Conventional biological markers such as fluorophores are mostly used for bioimaging applications. However their limitations like cytotoxicity and lack of photostability have led to research on other optical nanoparticles. The work in this thesis focuses on material processing, characterisation and application of nanodiamonds for bioimaging applications.Nanodiamond particles are biocompatible, chemically stable and have photostable optical defects in their core lattice. Nitrogen vacancy (NV) optical defects in nanodiamond have been focused in this work. The unique material, optical, spin and magnetic properties of nanodiamonds containing NV centres not only make them efficient fluorescent bio-labels but also allow them to be used for various quantum and nanoscale sensing applications.In this thesis, I present a brief introduction about nanodiamond synthesis, its optical centres, properties and applications followed by the current challenges in developing the material for various applications. Post-synthesis nanodiamonds are mostly aggregated and have impurities. Therefore, improved material processing and surface functionalisation is important to develop nanodiamonds as a nanoscale sensor or as a bio-label. This work presents purification and processing methodology for isolating nanodiamonds of various sizes with desired surface profile for maximum brightness and photostability. A comparative brightness analysis for nanodiamonds of different sizes was performed to identify the most suitable size range for bioimaging applications at molecular level. The colloidal stability of nanodiamonds in ionic environment, such as that present in biological systems, was studied. Based on improved material processing, surface functionalisation, suitable size range and colloidal stability of nanodiamonds, they were efficiently conjugated to F-actin, opening up possibilities for their use as imaging labels that can selectively target biomolecule(s) of interest in complex biological systems.

Year: 2020

description: In this short paper, we propose a research design for collecting data on entrepreneurs’ perceptions of the existential crisis. In particular, we are interested in a deeper understanding of the societal impact the Corona-Crisis will have on social relations in Germany through the eyes of a key-demographic: entrepreneurs. We outline a possible set up for a probabilistic web-panel of entrepreneurs, focusing on managing directors and company owners in small and medium sized companies. The panel would include questions about how entrepreneurs perceive the support offered by the government and the wider society, how this evaluation will impact their view of the government and their fellow citizens and how entrepreneurs see any chance in this crisis for more sustainability-oriented business practices. Moreover, we outline a sampling strategy and a data collection mode. Such research is of particular relevance in the current situation of high uncertainty to better understand how perceptions and attitudes of entrepreneurs are developing due to the crisis. This will not only have important implications for the social group under study, but for questions about the social cohesion more generally.

description: In this article, we present an application of the rolling cross-section (RCS) design to monitor changes in public opinion during the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy (ResPOnsE Covid-19 project, University of Milan Statale). The RCS is a dynamic survey tool used predominantly in the analyses of public opinion during electoral campaigns. Because of its dynamic nature, we argue that it is an ideal instrument to monitor public opinion during a pandemic. Specifically, we present an RCS online survey implemented in Italy from April to July 2020 and we present some illustrative analyses of changes in behaviors, attitudes, and opinions during the Covid-19 crisis to highlight the potential of the design. Ultimately, we assert that RCS surveys could be very powerful instruments to inform policy makers of the dynamics of public opinion during a crisis, especially when inserted within existent high-quality survey infrastructures.

description: The spread of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, poses major challenges for individuals and societies at large. The question now is how individuals and society are dealing with these challenges, and what health, psychological, social, and economic effects they will have to bear. Meaningful answers can only be provided using a generalizable database that contains contextual information such as family characteristics and offers a life-course perspective. We argue that these criteria are best met by household panel survey data. In this paper, we illustrate the importance of such data and show how they can aid in explaining the current and future effects of the pandemic on individuals, households, and society. Furthermore, we describe the survey design of SOEP-CoV, a supplementary telephone survey to the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) study.

description: Although counts of the novel Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infections and deaths are reported by several sources online, precise estimation of the exposed proportion of the population is not possible in most areas of the world. Estimates of other disease prevalence in the United States are often obtained through in-person seroprevalence surveys. The availability of testing only for individuals with symptoms, combined with stay-at-home and social distancing mandates to stem the spread of the disease, limit in-person data collection options. A probability-based mail survey with at-home, self-administered testing is a feasible method to safely estimate SARS-CoV-2 antibody prevalence within the United States while also easing burden on the U.S. public and health care system. This mail survey could be a one-time, cross-sectional design, or a repeated cross-sectional or longitudinal survey. We discuss several options for designing and conducting this survey.

description: Elounda Bay constitutes an area stigmatized by the reconstruction of its landscape’s due to the phenomenon of tourism. The final outcome of which has been both either positive or negative. The spatial contradictions, the coexistence of history, landscape and tourism have contributed to the formation of the current image of the bay.
Our research thesis is divided in two sections. The first deals with the historical and residential development of Elounda bay from the antiquity until today. We delve into the period from 1960 onwards, when the most obvious spatial changes have been observed as an effect of flourish of tourism. At the same time, we mention studies and proposals that aim to the improvement of the area. Based on the above, in the second section we critically analyze and evaluate the current image of Elounda bay, the degree of the impact of tourism, as well as the alteration caused to the bay. Each section is accompanied by maps and collages that we created, in order to achieve a better understanding of the area that is being studied.

description: Prioritizing potential invasive alien species, introduction pathways, likely places susceptible to biological invasions is collectively critical for developing the targeting of management strategies at pre-border, border, and post-border. A framework for prioritizing the invasion management that considered all these elements in combination is lacking, particularly in the context of potential co-invasion scenarios of multi-species. Here, for the first time, we have constructed a coupling framework of biological invasions to evaluate and prioritize multiple invasion risks of 35 invasive alien mealybugs (IAMs) that posed a significant threat to the agri-horticultural crops in China. We found that the imported tropical fruits from free trade areas of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations to entry ports of southern China was the primary introduction pathway for IAMs, vectored on various fruit commodities. There was also a high probability for co-introductions of potential multi-IAMs with a single imported tropical fruit. The potential distribution of such IAMs with dissimilar net relatedness were mainly located in southern China. These distributions, however, are likely to expand to the higher latitudes of northern China under future climate and land use/land cover changes. Temperature and anthropogenic factors were both independently and collectively determining factors for the diversity and distribution patterns of imported IAMs under near current climate conditions. Our findings highlight that these multiple components of global change have and will continue to facilitate the introduction and establishment risks of IAMs in southern China, as well as the spread risk into northern China. Additionally, our findings, for the first time, demonstrated management prioritization across the continuous invasion stages of 35 IAMs in China, and provide additional insights on the development of targeting of their biosecurity and management decisions.

description: Cationic azobenzene-containing surfactants are capable of condensing DNA in solution with formation of nanosized particles that can be employed in gene delivery. The ratio of surfactant/DNA concentration and solution ionic strength determines the result of DNA-surfactant interaction: Complexes with a micelle-like surfactant associates on DNA, which induces DNA shrinkage, DNA precipitation or DNA condensation with the emergence of nanosized particles. UV and fluorescence spectroscopy, low gradient viscometry and flow birefringence methods were employed to investigate DNA-surfactant and surfactant-surfactant interaction at different NaCl concentrations, [NaCl]. It was observed that [NaCl] (or the Debye screening radius) determines the surfactant-surfactant interaction in solutions without DNA. Monomers, micelles and non-micellar associates of azobenzene-containing surfactants with head-to-tail orientation of molecules were distinguished due to the features of their absorption spectra. The novel data enabled us to conclude that exactly the type of associates (together with the concentration of components) determines the result of DNA-surfactant interaction. Predomination of head-to-tail associates at 0.01 M < [NaCl] < 0.5 M induces DNA aggregation and in some cases DNA precipitation. High NaCl concentration (higher than 0.8 M) prevents electrostatic attraction of surfactants to DNA phosphates for complex formation. DAPI dye luminescence in solutions with DNA-surfactant complexes shows that surfactant tails overlap the DNA minor groove. The addition of di- and trivalent metal ions before and after the surfactant binding to DNA indicate that the bound surfactant molecules are located on DNA in islets

description: Remote sensing and field spectroscopy of natural waters is typically performed under clear skies, low wind speeds and low solar zenith angles. Such measurements can also be made, in principle, under clouds and mixed skies using airborne or in-situ measurements; however, variable illumination conditions pose a challenge to data analysis. In the present case study, we evaluated the inversion of hyperspectral in-situ measurements for water constituent retrieval acquired under variable cloud cover. First, we studied the retrieval of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) absorption from in-water irradiance measurements. Then, we evaluated the errors in the retrievals of the concentration of total suspended matter (TSM), Chl-a and the absorption coefficient of CDOM from above-water reflectance measurements due to highly variable reflections at the water surface. In order to approximate cloud reflections, we extended a recent three-component surface reflectance model for cloudless atmospheres by a constant offset and compared different surface reflectance correction procedures. Our findings suggest that in-water irradiance measurements may be used for the analysis of absorbing compounds even under highly variable weather conditions. The extended surface reflectance model proved to contribute to the analysis of above-water reflectance measurements with respect to Chl-a and TSM. Results indicate the potential of this approach for all-weather monitoring.

Le produzioni certificate insieme a quelle biologiche, oltre ad essere ampiamente diffuse sul territorio (6 comuni italiani su 10 ospitano coltivazioni DOP, IGP e/o biologiche) rappresentano un’importante occasione per l’agroalimentare nazionale, sia nell’ambito dei consumi domestici, che sui mercati mondiali, perché consentono di diversificare le produzioni agricole e di soddisfare specifiche esigenze di qualità, sicurezza alimentare e sana alimentazione.

Per promuovere politiche e azioni di tutela e valorizzazione legate alle specificità territoriali, il 24% dei comuni italiani partecipa ad una rete nazionale di associazioni di identità (Res Tipica) attraverso la quale specialmente i piccoli comuni definiscono verso l’esterno il motivo della loro unicità ed attrattività: dal prodotto (il vino, l’olio, la nocciola, le ciliegie, ecc.) alla filosofia di produzione o consumo alimentare (slow, bio).

Additionally, the 3D dental cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) examinations are extensively utilized in orthodontics and endodontics due to their low ray dose and the capability to visualize three-dimensional structures. However, identifying teeth from panoramic X-ray images or CBCT scans and further manually annotating the teeth is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Thus, we usually cannot obtain a huge number of labeled cases, which limits the development of deep learning algorithms for segmenting teeth and automatically analyzing diseases. As a potential alternative, semi-supervised learning can explore useful information from unlabeled cases.

In this challenge, we aim to promote the development of the tooth segmentation in panoramic X-ray images. We extend the Semi-TeethSeg2023 Challenge from binary semantic settings to multi-instance and multi-class segmentation settings, with an emphasis on instance-level segmentation. Specifically, in Semi-TeethSeg2024, we will provide instance annotations for different teeth, inclusive of pertinent category information. The segmentation algorithm is expected to accurately segment 32 permanent teeth (including wisdom teeth) and 20 possible deciduous teeth in panoramic X-ray images.

In contrast to the dataset in Semi-TeethSeg2023 (6500 panoramic X-ray images and 584 CBCT scans), the dataset for Semi-TeethSeg2024 has been expanded to include 7000 panoramic X-ray images and 600 CBCT scans. To the best knowledge, this will be the largest most diverse publicly available dataset for teeth instance segmentation.  In addition, based on the results in Semi-TeethSeg2023, we found that segmentation models can not achieve a good tradeoff between segmentation accuracy and efficiency. Thus, in Semi-TeethSeg2024, the challenge evaluation criteria are not limited to segmentation accuracy, but also include runtime and GPU memory consumption,providing a comprehensive assessment of segmentation efficiency.

In summary, the Semi-TeethSeg2024 challenge has three main features:(1) Task: this is the first challenge for teeth instance segmentation in panoramic X-ray images and CBCT scans.(2) Dataset: we provide the largest dataset, including 7000 2D X-ray images and 600 3D CBCT scans spanning all age groups.(3) Evaluation: we not only focus on segmentation accuracy but also segmentation efficiency, which are in concordance with real clinical practice and requirements.

description: Background: The International Mission for Prognosis and Clinical Trial Design in TBI (IMPACT) prognostic models have been used to predict outcome following traumatic brain injury (TBI). These models were derived in a cohort primarily composed of randomized controlled trial participants and may not be valid for older patients seen in clinical practice. Patients and Methods: Using data from the National Study on Costs and Outcomes of Trauma (NSCOT) we identified adult patients presenting to US hospitals between July 2001 and November 2002 with non-penetrating moderate or severe TBI (GCS ≤12). The cohort was split into older (65-84 years) and younger (18-64 years) age strata and the predicted risks of death and unfavorable outcome were calculated using the IMPACT core and lab models. Model calibration and discrimination in the older stratum was compared to that in the younger stratum. Results: We identified 202 older patients (weighted n = 268) and 613 younger patients (weighted n = 1,682) with moderate or severe non-penetrating TBI. Older patients more commonly had multiple co-morbidities and used antiplatelets or anticoagulants prior to injury. Older patients were more frequently injured in a fall and three times more likely to be dead within 6 months of injury. IMPACT model discrimination did not differ significantly between older and younger age strata and was generally adequate (c-statistic for the core model predicting death by 6 months, 0.81 [0.77 – 0.84] versus 0.75 [0.66 – 0.84], respectively; p=0.26). IMPACT model calibration was poor for both older and younger strata (Hosmer-Lemeshow p-value for the core model for death by 6 months was 0.01 versus <0.0001, respectively). Pre-specified qualitative graphical evaluation suggested substantial under-prediction of mortality in the oldest decades of life but not among younger patients. Discussion: The examined IMPACT prognostic models demonstrated adequate discrimination but poor calibration in both older and younger strata of a population-based sample of patients with moderate-to-severe TBI. These models should be used with caution when stratifying geriatric TBI populations for the purposes of risk adjustment or clinical trial design.

description: Alle fünf Jahre werden die Bürgerinnen und Bürger Indonesiens zum einem großen Fest eingeladen, dem Fest der Demokratie. So werden im Pancasila-Jargon der Neuen Ordnung die Wahlen zum indonesischen Parlament DPR genannt. Diese Parlamentswahlen, die der Wahl des Präsidenten immer um ein Jahr vorausgehen, finden das nächste Mal im März 1997 statt. Und wie schon bei den zwei vorausgegangenen Wahlen 1988 und 1992 stellt sich auch bei dieser Wahl - diesmal jedoch in verschärfter Form - die Frage nach der Nachfolge (suksesi) von Präsident Suharto, der 1967 zum ersten Mal ins Präsidentenamt gewählt wurde. Anders als bei den voraus - gegangenen Wahlen ist die politische Stimmung im Lande schon mehr als ein Jahr vor dem Wahltag angespannt und nervös. Bislang gültige Regeln und Rituale werden nicht mehr eingehalten. Der Wahlkampf, der sonst auf die letzten drei Wochen vor dem Urnengang beschränkt ist, scheint längst ausgebrochen. Politiker, Beobachter und politische Laien rätseln an der Frage: "Tritt Suharto noch einmal an?" Wenn ja, unter welchen Bedingungen? Wenn nein, was kommt danach?

Publisher: name: Survey Research Methods
Year: 2020

description: During the current COVID-19 pandemic, “digital epidemiology” has been proposed to complement traditional reporting and surveillance systems. Instruments such as smartphone contact apps, fitness trackers, and apps for voluntary reporting are intended to be used to monitor or limit the spread of COVID-19. The methodological drawbacks and limitations of these instruments and devices are insufficiently addressed in the public discussion. Therefore, we review these weaknesses and limitations, using the Total Survey Error framework to address sampling and non-sampling errors of these approaches. We argue that no useful results can be obtained by any of the suggested methods of digital epidemiology for COVID-19 research. Finally, we suggest feasible alternative data sources for valid and population covering COVID-19 indicator systems.

description: This paper examines and discusses the biases and pitfalls of retrospective survey questions that are currently being used in many medical, epidemiological, and sociological studies on the COVID-19 pandemic. By analyzing the consistency of answers to retrospective questions provided by respondents who participated in the first two waves of a survey on the social consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, we illustrate the insights generated by a large body of survey research on the use of retrospective questions and recall accuracy.

description: Key nuclear inputs for the astrophysical r process simulations are the weak interaction rates. Consequently, the accuracy of these inputs directly affects the reliability of nucleosynthesis modeling. Majority of the stellar rates, used in simulation studies, are calculated invoking the Brink Axel (BA) hypothesis. The BA hypothesis assumes that the strength functions of all parent excited states are the same as for the ground state, only shifted in energies. However, BA hypothesis has to be tested against microscopically calculated state by state rates. In this project we study the impact of the BA hypothesis on calculated stellar \b{eta} decay and electron capture rates. Our investigation include both Unique First Forbidden (U1F) and allowed transitions for 106 neutron rich trans iron nuclei ([27, 77] less than equal to [Z, A] less than equal to [82, 208]). The calculations were performed using the deformed proton-neutron quasiparticle randomphase approximation (pn QRPA) model with a simple plus quadrupole separable and schematic interaction. Waiting-point and several key r process nuclei lie within the considered mass region of the nuclear chart.

Investigating selection bias of online surveys on coronavirus-related behavioral outcomes: An example utilizing the GESIS Panel Special Survey on the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak in Germany
Creators: name: Schaurer, Ines
name: Weiß, Bernd
Publisher: name: Survey Research Methods
Year: 2020

description: The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 outbreak has stimulated numerous online surveys that are mainly based on online convenience samples or commercial online access panels where participants select themselves. The results are, nevertheless, often generalized to the general population. In our paper we investigate the potential bias that is introduced by respondents’ self-selection. The analysis is based on survey data of the “GESIS Panel Special Survey on the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 Outbreak in Germany”, together with background information of the GESIS Panel. Our analyses show indication of a nonignorable amount of selection bias for measures of personality traits among online survey respondents. This provides some evidence that participating in an online survey and complying with measures that can minimize the risk of being infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus are confounded. Hence, generalizing these results to the general population bears the risk of over or underestimating the share of the population that complies with specific measures.

Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2025

description: Flood prediction is challenging due to increasing climate variability and nonlinear, nonstationary hydrological data. We propose a novel hybrid model, Wavelet Long Short-Term Memory (WLSTM), combining wavelet transforms with LSTM networks. Wavelet decomposition allows separation of frequency components, enhancing LSTM’s ability to learn both short- and long-term dependencies. Applied to streamflow data from 16 stations in Hessen (2000–2017), WLSTM reduced RMSE by 66.43% and MAPE by 45.49%, while increasing R² by 2.06%. These improvements highlight its effectiveness in modeling complex hydrological dynamics. WLSTM offers a robust tool for adaptive flood risk management under climate change.
