title: History, ethnography, and the nation: the films of Scotland documentaries
Creators: name: Butt, Richard
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1997

description: The Films of Scotland Committee (1938 and 1954-82) produced one hundred and sixty eight documentaries on Scotland and Scottish life; the thesis is an archaeology of those documentaries. The thesis breaks from a film theory discourse that has marginalised documentary to argue that the genre should be understood as a cultural technology, an exhibitionary apparatus that draws on a variety of discursive formations in its production of knowledge. Similarly, the thesis argues that the representation of Scotland should not be understood as an aesthetic failure to represent the reality of life in Scotland, but as a distinct discursive practice that emerged at a specific historical period, a practice regulated by the rules of formation of the discourses within which it operates.

 The thesis outlines the history of Scottish film culture before 1938, and examines the formation of the Committee by the Scottish Office, arguing that this needs to be understood in relation to the history of public cultural policy in Britain since the mid nineteenth century. It examines the Committee's commitment to 'the national interest, and its relation to the mechanics and legitimation of state authority. A discursive analysis of The Face of Scotland (1938) begins to identify the discursive regimes on which Films of Scotland documentaries draw in their production of knowledge. The thesis argues that this film occupies a space of representation opened up by the discursive formations of ethnography and history, and a discourse of nationhood, and traces the formation of this space by looking at the earlier surfaces of emergence of these discourses. It also begins to suggest the ways in which these discourses engage with the construction of cultural and national identities.

 Arguing that the figure of the tour is central to the Films of Scotland documentaries, th e thesis traces the emergence of the tour as a cultural technology in Scotland from the eighteenth century travel writing of Martin Martin and Boswell and Johnson, to the apparatuses of tourism established by Thomas Cook. The last part of the thesis focuses on the travelogue as a sub-genre of documentary, mapping out both the technologies of vision on which it draws, and its generic 'regime of verisimilitude', structured, it is argued, by an oscillation between the discourses of history and ethnography. Finally the thesis argues that what remains hegemonic in Scottish culture are not particular images and narratives, but the very concept of national culture itself, and the nature, rather than the content, of national identity.

description: Abstract: The aim of these investigations was the presentation of the current legal situation for the protection of peatlands in Russia. In parallel, an exemplary investigation of the peatland Ozero Čistoe was performed to analyse the status and the level of risk from the perspective of current nature protection rules in the Oblast Lipeck. Therefore vegetation was described by dominant principles and sorted by vegetation types according KOSKA (2001). They were used as an indicator for the calculation of greenhouse gas emissions (COUWENBERG et al. 2008). In addition, soil samples were taken, in order to determine the peatland’s carbon content. The peatland Ozero Čistoe is part of the protected area „Lipeckij Zakasnik“. It emits about 3.4 to 10.2 t ha-1 of CO2 equivalents per year. The peats of this peatland have a high level of Corg up to 46.5%. During examinating the legislation it occurred that the federal laws for environmental protection (2002) and protected areas (1995) as well as the Water Code (2006) are very important for the protection of peatlands in Russia.
description: Zusammenfassung: Ein Ziel der Untersuchungen war die Darstellung rechtlicher Schutzmöglichkeiten der Moore in Russland. Parallel dazu fand eine exemplarische Untersuchung des Moores Ozero Čistoe im Oblast Lipeck statt, um den Zustand sowie den Gefährdungsgrad aus Sicht aktueller Naturschutzbestimmungen zu analysieren. Dazu wurde die Vegetation des Moores nach Dominanten beschrieben und den Vegetationsformen nach KOSKA (2001) zugeordnet. Sie dienten als Indikator zur Berechnung der Treibhausgasemissionen nach COUWENBERG et al. (2008). Zudem wurden dem Moor Bodenproben zur Kohlenstoffbestimmung entnommen. Das Moor Ozero Čistoe gehört zum Schutzgebiet „Lipeckij Zakasnik“. Insgesamt emittiert es pro Jahr durchschnittlich zwischen 3,4 und 10,2 t CO2-Äquivalente ha-1. Die Torfe dieses Moores weisen hohe Gehalte bis zu 46,5 % Corg auf. Bei der Recherche zur Gesetzgebung zeigte sich, dass in Russland die föderalen Gesetze zum Naturschutz (2002), zu den Naturschutzgebieten (1995) sowie das Wassergesetzbuch (2006) eine besondere Relevanz zum Schutz der Moore haben.

Appropriate Statistical Analysis for Two Independent Groups of Likert-Type Data

Publisher: name: ProQuest
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 49
subject: Mathematical sciences

description: The objective of this research was to determine the robustness and statistical power of three different methods for testing the hypothesis that ordinal samples of five and seven Likert categories come from equal populations. The three methods are the two sample t-test with equal variances, the Mann-Whitney test, and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. In additional, these methods were employed over a wide range of scenarios with respect to sample size, significance level, effect size, population distribution, and the number of categories of response scale. The data simulations and statistical analyses were performed by using R programming language version 2.13.2. To assess the robustness and power, samples were generated from known distributions and compared. According to returned p-values at different nominal significance levels, empirical error rates and power were computed from the rejection of null hypotheses.Results indicate that the two sample t-test and the Mann-Whitney test were robust for Likert-type data. Also the t-test performed the best to control of Type I error for both 5-point and 7-point Likert scale. For the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the Type I error rate was not controlled for all circumstances. This means the testing procedure computed from R was not robust for the ordinal Likert-type data because the Type I error rate of this test was lower than the minimum of the robustness criteria. Therefore, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was quite conservative. For the statistical power of the test, the Mann-Whitney test was the most powerful for most of the distributions, especially under highly skewed and bimodal distributions. The t-test obtained high statistical power or close to the power from the Man-Whitney test under the uniform, moderate skewed or symmetric distribution with large location shift.

description: Abstract: As part of a Modern Melioration project in the municipality of Abtwil (canton of Aargau, Switzerland) it is planned to designate an area of special ecological importance for the long-term protection and renaturation of the „Moos“, a drained and intensively used peatland, together with its original hydrological catchment area. A study was carried out to determine the feasibility of such peatland revitalisation and the best way of implementing it. The re-establishment of a near-natural water regime is by far the most important step in the successful revitalisation of the „Moos“. In fact Modern Melioration, properly managed, has the potential to become an important tool in the conservation of both landscape and nature.
description: Zusammenfassung: Im Rahmen einer Modernen Melioration in der Gemeinde Abtwil (Kanton Aargau, Schweiz) soll das entwässerte und intensiv genutzte Niedermoor „Moos“ mitsamt seinem ursprünglichen hydrologischen Einzugsgebiet revitalisiert und als ökologische Vorrangfläche langfristig gesichert werden. Mit einer Studie wurde geklärt, ob eine solche Moorrevitalisierung machbar wäre und wie sie sich am besten realisieren ließe. Die Wiederherstellung eines moorfreundlichen Wasserregimes ist die mit Abstand wichtigste Maßnahme für eine erfolgreiche Revitalisierung des „Moos“. Bei sachgerechter Handhabung haben Moderne Meliorationen durchaus das Potenzial, sich zu einem wichtigen Instrument für den Landschafts- und Naturschutz zu entwickeln.

description: The efficient and reliable characterization of quantum states plays a vital role in most, if not all, quantum information processing tasks. In this work, we present a universally optimal protocol for verifying entangled states by employing the so-called quantum nondemolition measurements, such that the verification efficiency is equivalent to that of the optimal global strategy. Instead of being probabilistic as the standard verification strategies, our protocol is constructed sequentially, which is thus more favorable for experimental realizations. In addition, the target states are preserved in the protocol after each measurement, so can be reused in any subsequent tasks. We demonstrate the power of our protocol for the optimal verification of Bell states, arbitrary two-qubit pure states, and stabilizer states. We also prove that our protocol is able to perform tasks including fidelity estimation and state preparation.

description: Purpose: The purpose of our study was to use Dual-TR STE-MR protocol as a clinical tool for cortical bone free water quantification at 1.5T and validate it by comparing the obtained results (MR-derived results) with dehydration results. Methods: Human studies were compliant with HIPPA and were approved by the institutional review board. Short Echo Time (STE) MR imaging with different Repetition Times (TRs) was used for quantification of cortical bone free water T1 (T1free) and concentration (\r{ho}free). The proposed strategy was compared with the dehydration technique in seven bovine cortical bone samples. The agreement between the two methods was quantified by using Bland and Altman analysis. Then we applied the technique on a cross-sectional population of thirty healthy volunteers (18F/12M) and examined the association of the biomarkers with age. Results: The mean values of \r{ho}free for bovine cortical bone specimens were quantified as 4.37% and 5.34% by using STE-MR and dehydration techniques, respectively. The Bland and Altman analysis showed good agreement between the two methods along with the suggestion of 0.99% bias between them. Strong correlations were also reported between \r{ho}free (r2 = 0.62) and T1free and age (r2 = 0.8). The reproducibility of the method, evaluated in eight subjects, yielded an intra-class correlation of 0.95. Conclusion: STE-MR imaging with dual-TR strategy is a clinical solution for quantifying cortical bone \r{ho}free and T1free.

description: EuB6 has for a long time captured the attention of the physics community, as it shows a ferromagnetic phase transition leading to a insulator the metal transition together with colossal magnetoresistance (CMR). EuB6 has a very low carrier density, which is known to drastically change the interaction between the localized Eu moments and the conduction electrons. One of early triumphs of the quantum theory in condensed matter was the presence of Fermi surface, which is intimately linked to the symmetry of the underlying crystal lattice. This symmetry can be probed by angle resolved magnetoresistance (AMRO) measurements. Here, we present angle resolved magnetoresistance (AMRO) measurements that show a that in EuB6 this symmetry is broken, possibly indicating the presence of a quantum nematic phase. We identify the region in the temperature-magnetic field phase diagram where the magnetoresistance shows two-fold oscillations instead of the expected fourfold pattern. Quantum nematic phases are analogous to classical liquid crystals. Like liquid crystals, which break the rotational symmetry of space, their quantum analogs break the point-group symmetry of the crystal due to strong electron-electron interactions, as in quantum Hall states, Sr3Ru2O7, and high temperature superconductors. This is the same region where magnetic polarons were previously observed, suggesting that they drive the nematicity in EuB6. This is also the region of the phase diagram where EuB6 shows a colossal magnetoresistance (CMR). This novel interplay between magnetic and electronic properties could thus be harnessed for spintronic applications.

The mining planning is based on the „Klapp-Concept“, which enables necessary compensation in the centre of the bog and gives the owners of the new mining area the guarantee of a follow-up agricultural use. The requirements of the old permissions like follow-up agricultural use in the central governmental areas has been paid by a transfer fee by the company.

description: We have searched the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty centimeters (FIRST) and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) 1.4 GHz radio surveys for sources that are coincident with emission-line galaxy (ELG) candidates from the KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS). A total of 207 of the 2157 KISS ELGs (~10%) in the first two H-alpha-selected survey lists were found to possess radio detections in FIRST and/or NVSS. Follow-up spectra exist for all of the radio detections, allowing us to determine the activity type (star-forming vs. AGN) for the entire sample. We explore the properties of the radio-detected KISS galaxies in order to gain a better insight into the nature of radio-emitting galaxies in the local universe (z < 0.1). No dwarf galaxies were detected, despite the large numbers of low-luminosity galaxies present in KISS, suggesting that lower mass, lower luminosity objects do not possess strong galaxian-scale magnetic fields. Due to the selection technique used for KISS, our radio ELGs represent a quasi-volume-limited sample, which allows us to develop a clearer picture of the radio galaxy population at low redshift. Nearly 2/3rds of the KISS radio galaxies are starburst/star-forming galaxies, which is in stark contrast to the results of flux-limited radio surveys that are dominated by AGNs and elliptical galaxies (i.e., classic radio galaxies). While there are many AGNs among the KISS radio galaxies, there are no objects with large radio powers in our local volume. We derive a radio luminosity function (RLF) for the KISS ELGs that agrees very well with previous RLFs that adequately sample the lower-luminosity radio population.

description: Antiferromagnetic Hamiltonians with short-range, non-frustrating interactions are well-known to exhibit long range magnetic order in dimensions, $d\geq 2$ but exhibit only quasi long range order, with power law decay of correlations, in d=1 (for half-integer spin). On the other hand, non-frustrating long range interactions can induce long range order in d=1. We study Hamiltonians in which the long range interactions have an adjustable amplitude lambda, as well as an adjustable power-law $1/|x|^α$, using a combination of quantum Monte Carlo and analytic methods: spin-wave, large-N non-linear sigma model, and renormalization group methods. We map out the phase diagram in the lambda-alpha plane and study the nature of the critical line separating the phases with long range and quasi long range order. We find that this corresponds to a novel line of critical points with continuously varying critical exponents and a dynamical exponent, z<1.

Torfvorkommen und Torfabbau in Thüringen
Distribution of peat and peat mining in Thüringen
Creators: name: Lange, Peter
Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 2005

description: Abstract: Thüringen is not known as a territory of mires, but in the past there were a lot of them, mostly little ones. Peat have been mined for fuel in 1830 to 1875. This period of mining and shortly after the two world-wars remove mires from the thuringian landscape. Nearly all mires are of Holocene age and their existence is bound to special geological structures beneath them. All of the former states in Thüringen are engaged in winning peat. Therefore its economical use will be described depending on the political structure before 1918.
description: Zusammenfassung: Thüringen gilt nicht als ein Land der Moore. Blickt man aber in die Vergangenheit, wird deutlich, dass in Thüringen zahlreiche kleine Torflagerstätten existierten. Sie sind überwiegend zwischen 1830 und 1875 abgebaut worden. Diese und die späteren Abbauphasen nach dem 1. und 2. Weltkrieg haben die Moore fast vollständig aus dem Landschaftsbild Thüringens verdrängt. Es wird dargelegt, dass die Mehrzahl der Moore dem Holozän entstammen und dass ihre Entstehung eng an die geologischen Verhältnisse in ihrem Untergrund gebunden ist. Am Abbau der Torflagerstätten hatten fast alle thüringischen Kleinstaaten Anteil. Der Torfabbau wird deshalb bezogen auf die bis 1918 bestehenden Kleinstaaten dargestellt.

The effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate on the aversive properties of cocaine in adulthood
Creators: name: Wetzell, B. Bradley
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Methylphenidate is the most widely prescribed pharmacotherapeutic treatment of AD/HD in children and teens and has actions that are also involved in drug reward and reinforcement. Its clinical use has often raised concerns over the possibility that it could potentiate the risk for later drug-related problems. Animals exposed to methylphenidate during adolescence exhibit attenuated cocaine-induced conditioned place preference, but tend to self-administer cocaine more quickly than controls. A drug's abuse potential, as reflected by self-administration, is thought to be the product of a balance between its rewarding and aversive properties, thus the present research assessed the effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate on conditioned taste aversions induced by cocaine in adulthood in 132 male Sprague Dawley rats. Although cocaine induced robust dose-dependent taste aversions in accordance with previous research, there were no effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate in spite of evidence that it was behaviorally active.

description: One of the major science cases of the MUSE integral field spectrograph is the detection of Lyman-alpha emitters at high redshifts. The on-going and planned deep fields observations will allow for one large sample of these sources. An efficient tool to perform blind detection of faint emitters in MUSE datacubes is a prerequisite of such an endeavor. Several line detection algorithms exist but their performance during the deepest MUSE exposures is hard to quantify, in particular with respect to their actual false detection rate, or purity. {The aim of this work is to design and validate} an algorithm that efficiently detects faint spatial-spectral emission signatures, while allowing for a stable false detection rate over the data cube and providing in the same time an automated and reliable estimation of the purity. Results on simulated data cubes providing ground truth show that the method reaches its aims in terms of purity and completeness. When applied to the deep 30-hour exposure MUSE datacube in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, the algorithms allows for the confirmed detection of 133 intermediate redshifts galaxies and 248 Lyman Alpha Emitters, including 86 sources with no HST counterpart. The algorithm fulfills its aims in terms of detection power and reliability. It is consequently implemented as a Python package whose code and documentation are available on GitHub and readthedocs.

description: Abstract: In the 1970s, the Emsland Moormuseum was founded by the homeland association of Geeste-Groß Hesepe. In many working hours the members of the association have built up the museum and have restored the machines of peatwinning and tilling. The exhibition focuses on the renaturalizationed peat bog area, the peatbaggers and the steam plough used by the former german company Ottomeyer. With its 30.000 visitors a year, the Moormuseum gains supra-regional interest. In 2003, due to the enourmous burden on the homeland association, the responsibility has been distributed upon the association, the District Emsland and the community of Geeste. The museum’s fortunes are now lead by a fulltime scientist with the aim to make the house forward-looking through moderate restructuring and modernization. Until spring of 2006 projects are at first the renovation of the exhibition hall, the conception of a new exhibition and a better connection to the museum’s exterior area.
description: Zusammenfassung: Das Emsland Moormuseum wurde in den 1970er Jahren vom Heimat- und Verkehrsverein Groß Hesepe gegründet. Die Mitglieder des Heimatvereins haben in vielen Stunden Arbeit das Museum aufgebaut und Torfabbau- sowie Bodenbearbeitungsmaschinen restauriert. Im Zentrum der Ausstellung stehen die renaturierte Hochmoorfläche, die Torfbagger sowie der Dampflugsatz der Fa. Ottomeyer. Das Moormuseum zieht mit ca. 30.000 Jahresbesuchern auch überregionales Interesse auf sich. Aufgrund der enormen Belastung des Heimatvereins ist in 2003 die Trägerschaft innerhalb einer neuen Vereinsstruktur durch Beteiligung des Landkreises Emsland sowie der Gemeinde Geeste neu geregelt worden. Ein Wissenschaftler leitet seitdem hauptamtlich die Geschicke des Moormuseums mit dem Ziel, durch eine moderate Umstrukturierung und Modernisierung, das Haus zukunftsfähig aufzustellen. Geplant ist die Renovierung der Ausstellungshalle, die Gestaltung einer neuen Ausstellung sowie die Verbesserung der Anbindung des Außengeländes bis Frühjahr 2006.

description: Using Indium on Si(111) as an atomically thin superconductor platform, and by systematically controlling the density of nano-hole defects (nanometer size voids), we reveal the impacts of defects density and defects geometric arrangements on superconductivity at macroscopic and microscopic length scales. When nano-hole defects are uniformly dispersed in the atomic layer, the superfluid density monotonically decreases as a function of defect density (from 0.7% to 5% of the surface area) with minor change in the transition temperature Tc, measured both microscopically and macroscopically. With a slight increase in the defect density from 5% to 6%, these point defects are organized into defect chains that enclose individual two-dimensional patches. This new geometric arrangement of defects dramatically impacts the superconductivity, leading to the total disappearance of macroscopic superfluid density and the collapse of the microscopic superconducting gap. This study sheds new light on the understanding of how local defects and their geometric arrangement impact superconductivity in the two-dimensional limit.

The effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate on the aversive properties of cocaine in adulthood

description: Methylphenidate is the most widely prescribed pharmacotherapeutic treatment of AD/HD in children and teens and has actions that are also involved in drug reward and reinforcement. Its clinical use has often raised concerns over the possibility that it could potentiate the risk for later drug-related problems. Animals exposed to methylphenidate during adolescence exhibit attenuated cocaine-induced conditioned place preference, but tend to self-administer cocaine more quickly than controls. A drug's abuse potential, as reflected by self-administration, is thought to be the product of a balance between its rewarding and aversive properties, thus the present research assessed the effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate on conditioned taste aversions induced by cocaine in adulthood in 132 male Sprague Dawley rats. Although cocaine induced robust dose-dependent taste aversions in accordance with previous research, there were no effects of adolescent exposure to methylphenidate in spite of evidence that it was behaviorally active.

description: Abstract: The local and regional forest vegetation, the development of the mire and the local development of settlement near the peat bog ´Varreler Schlatt´ (district Diepholz, Northwestern Germany) were reconstructed by pollen and sedimentological parameters (water-content, dry density, the contents of carbon and nitrogen and C/N). The 3.5 m long profile starts due to pollen stratigraphy 12.000 years ago and includes the chrono-zones since Allerød. Between 0.9 and 1.5 m depth is a hiatus, probably caused by peat cutting during World War II. Thereby the peat since Subatlantic until 1950 AD were removed.
description: Zusammenfassung: Anhand pollenanalytischer und sedimentologischer Parameter (Wassergehalt, Trockendichte, Kohlenstoff- und Stickstoff-Gehalt und C/N) wurde die lokale und regionale Waldvegetation, die Moorentwicklung und die lokale Siedlungsentwicklung für das Kleinstmoor Varreler Schlatt (Landkreis Diepholz, Nordwestdeutschland) rekonstruiert. Das 3,5 m lange Profil setzt pollenstratigraphisch vor ca. 12.000 Jahren ein und umfasst die Chronozonen ab Alleröd. Zwischen 0,9 und 1,5 m Tiefe ist ein Hiatus, der durch Torfstich vermutlich während des 2. Weltkrieges hervorgerufen wurde. Dadurch wurden Torfe ab Subatlantikum bis 1950 AD entfernt.
