description: Experiments conducted in the early 1980's on a very small selection of modern artists' pigments showed that several pigments will fade dramatically if exposed to ozone at the levels found in Los Angeles photochemical smog. The objective of this research project is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the full scope of this fading hazard to works of art, and to determine the methods that can be used to protect works of art from damage due to photochemical oxidants. In order to achieve this objective, research is progressing on several fronts. Accomplishments to date will be summarized briefly, followed by several appendices that provide more detailed information on some aspects of the research.

description: In this study, we present a reformulation of classical equilibrium thermodynamics by replacing the obscure and ambiguous concept of entropy with the clear and intuitive concept of information stored in a thermodynamic system. Specifically, we rewrite the laws of thermodynamics in the mathematical terminology borrowed from information theory with an emphasis on information instead of entropy and on binary logarithm instead of natural one. We also define a modified ideal gas constant denoted as $\mathcal{R}$ that quantifies the energy cost of storing or retrieving a mole of information. Moreover an application to the ideal gas is carried and new insight on the evolution of the system is acquired. This new formulation might serve as a basis to teaching thermodynamics, where one deals with the concept of energy and information both stored in a thermodynamic system and avoids the lack of cognitive representations inherent in the concept of entropy.

description: Second-order federated learning (FL) algorithms offer faster convergence than their first-order counterparts by leveraging curvature information. However, they are hindered by high computational and storage costs, particularly for large-scale models. Furthermore, the communication overhead associated with large models and digital transmission exacerbates these challenges, causing communication bottlenecks. In this work, we propose a scalable second-order FL algorithm using a sparse Hessian estimate and leveraging over-the-air aggregation, making it feasible for larger models. Our simulation results demonstrate more than $67\%$ of communication resources and energy savings compared to other first and second-order baselines.

description: Fourteen of the NJBPN sites in Ocean County are located in the following communities on the northern barrier spit segment: Borough of Point Pleasant Beach, Borough of Bay Head, Borough of Mantoloking, Brick Township, Toms River Township , Borough of Lavallette, Ortley Beach in Toms River Township, Seaside Heights, Borough of Seaside Park, and Township of Berkeley. The 14 Long Beach barrier island profiles are located in the following municipalities: Borough of Barnegat Light, Long Beach Township, Borough of Harvey Cedars, Borough of Ship Bottom, and the Borough of Beach Haven. There are three locations in the Island Beach State Park and one in the Holgate Unit of the Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge at the southern end of Long Beach Island.Northern Ocean County recovered its beaches approaching pre-Hurricane Sandy elevation or width, but many dunes at the 28 locations surveyed are between 50 and 60% of what they were prior to the storm. Dune survival in Northern Ocean County was under 25% of the cases and interest focused on a privately developed dune system at Midway Beach where no overwash occurred because of long-term owner efforts to build a major feature since 1986 when the CRC initial beach surveys show no dune of any kind at the location. The wide beach near Manasquan Inlet served to minimize structural damage from waves, but did little to prevent overwash and tidal surge flooding inland. The rock revetment protecting part of Bay Head reduced structural damages to beachfront homes but also did not prevent massive surge flooding. Mantoloking and Ortley Beach suffered the greatest damage due to narrow beaches and buildings very close to or within the landward dune slope area.

description: When the quark masses are lighter than those in QCD, the standard lore is that a chiral transition of first order must emerge for three, light flavors. Recently, however, numerical simulations on the lattice suggest that the chiral transition is of second order in the chiral limit. Using an extended linear sigma model in the mean field approximation, we study the relation between terms which break the anomalous, $U(1)_A$ symmetry and the order of the chiral phase transition, especially how a chiral transition of second order can arise for three, massless flavors. We note that in an (unphysical) region of the "Columbia" phase diagram, when the strange quark mass is light and negative, corresponding to topological angle $θ=π$, the $CP$ symmetry is spontaneously broken.

Male macroptera. Similar to but smaller than female, apex of abdomen yellow; tergite IX dorsal setae small and slender; sternite II with 3 pairs of marginal setae, IV–VI with broad pore plate on antecostal area.
Material studied. Holotype female, Western Australia, Kununurra, Kununurra Gorge, from native Poaceae, 23.ii.2005 (LAM 4574).
Paratypes: Western Australia: 14 females, 1 male collected with holotype.
Non-paratypic specimens: New South Wales, Bullio, 25km west of Mittagong, 3 females from Cymbopogon refractus leaves, 2.iv.2010; Broken Hill, 2 females from Cymbopogon ambiguus leaves, 15.i.2001. Northern Territory, Alice Springs, 100km west, Serpentine Gorge, 1 female from Cymbopogon ambiguus leaves, 1.x.1999. Queensland, Aramac, 36km NE, 10 females from Cymbopogon sp., 10.iv.2005.
Comments. This species is closely similar in structure to M. masamii, apart from the differences noted above. These two were collected at the same site, but not from the same grass species. The specimens listed from New South Wales and Northern Territory cannot be distinguished from the type series from the north of Western Australia. In contrast, the females listed from Queensland have the fifth antennal segment distinctly shaded, and the sternites have few discal setae, but are otherwise similar in structure.

description: The spring and fall surveys of 2013 were essential in determining the quantitative impact of Hurricane Sandy. All Brigantine sites were surveyed immediately prior to Sandy in October 2012 while Absecon Island’s five locations were done in December, after the storm. Data collected at the 10 oceanfront beach profile locations cover the municipal beaches from the City of Brigantine Beach to the Borough of Longport. Little Beach on Pullen Island to the north of Brigantine is a natural area and is not included in the NJBPN program. Aerial photography post-Sandy does show overwash of the Little Beach Island’s central portion with shoreline retreat now at a dune system that first developed in the 1880’s and had remained well inland since then.

description: This study analyzes the calculation of the critical current density Jc,mag by means of Bean's critical state model, using the equation formulated by Gyorgy et al. and other similar equations derived from it reported in the literature. While estimations of Jc,mag using Bean's model are widely performed, improper use of different equations with different magnetic units and pre-factors leads to confusion and to significant errors in the reported values of Jc,mag. In this work, a SINGLE general equation is proposed for the calculation of Jc,mag for a rectangular parallelepiped sample in perpendicular field using Bean's critical state model, underlying how the simple conversion of magnetic units can lead to a Jc,mag in the desired units, without the need to introduce any other correction or use other specific equations depending on the units of Jc,mag. In this equation, the numerical pre-factor is dimensionless, independent of the unit system used. A comparison between the expression reported in the literature is done, showing how they can lead to different results depending on the used units, and that these results can be at least one order of magnitude different from the correct results obtained with the general equation proposed in this work. This resolves all ambiguities and aligns with the correct dimensional analysis, eliminates discrepancies in the calculated Jc,mag, and will avoid further propagation of errors in the literature.

Cape May County - Great Egg Harbor Inlet to Stow Creek - NJBPN Profile #'s 225-100

Year: 2014

description: Cape May County has 31 survey stations between Reeds Beach on the Western Cape May County shoreline, around Cape May Point and up the ocean coastline to Great Egg Inlet in Ocean City. This county has five tidal inlets separating four barrier islands and a complex coastal geomorphic compartment that is the site of Cape May City, a US Coast Guard base and Cape May Point. Each inlet has near identical geomorphic conditions with a narrow, rapidly changing southern spit that curves deep into the inlet, a large ebb-tidal delta offshore and a distinct offset in the seaward position of the southern inlet shoreline due to wave refraction around the ebbtidal delta. This makes the northeast corner of each island vulnerable to northeast wave conditions especially when the main tidal channel lies close to the southern shoreline of the inlet.This has frequently expressed itself in Ocean City (the Gardens area), Strathmere in Upper Township, Avalon between 10th and 15th Streets, and North Wildwood between 2nd and 5th Avenues. These four “hot spots” all owe their high rates of beach erosion to inlet tidal current processes combined with incident waves impacting the adjacent shoreline. These four locations have consumed 50% of all sand placed in Cape May County since 1983.

New Jersey Beach Profile Network 2014 Annual Report on shoreline changes in New Jersey's four coastal counties - Raritan Bay to Delaware Bay - Spring of 2013 through Fall of 2014
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2015

description: The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) authorized the New Jersey Beach Profile Network (NJBPN) project in 1986. The report is divided into four coastal county segments and provides a summary of beach changes for each county. Since it has been over two years since Hurricane Sandy, the objective is to report on exactly how each shoreline segment has responded to both extensive restoration efforts and situations where beach/dune recovery were more natural process driven. The US Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) undertook the restoration to design specifications all federally authorized, and constructed shore protection projects in the State. Funding under Public Law 113-2 allowed 100% federal payment to do restoration of existing projects in Monmouth, Ocean, Atlantic, Cape May Counties, and the tidal Delaware Bay/River shoreline. While the direct impact of Hurricane Sandy was published on the Coastal Research Center (CRC) website as soon as it was complete in December 2012, it has taken several years to follow both the direct sand placement as well as the slower rate of natural accretion.

description: Northern Ocean County experienced beach recovery approaching pre-Hurricane Sandy elevation or width, adding an average of 3.06 yds3/ft. in Northern Ocean County, but losing 15.79 yds3/ft. on average on Long Beach Island. The higher loss rate on LBI is most likely due to the redistribution of the sand placed on the three project segment beaches by the ACOE in 2013 and 2014. 24.75 yds3/ft. in new sand on the average was placed on the 14 LBI sites. Many dunes at the 28 locations surveyed are between 60 and 100% of what they were prior to the storm, with the higher percentage values again, found in the three ACOE project sites on LBI.The US Army Corps of Engineers had completed three segments of its Long Beach Island project prior to Sandy. These included Surf City in 2007, Harvey Cedars in 2009 and Brant Beach in 2012. The berm width at 8.5 feet elevation (NAVD88 datum) was set at 100 feet accompanied by a dune with a crest elevation of 22 feet and a 25-foot width. There are 1:5 slopes landward and seaward to the existing beach and landward surfaces. The 22-foot elevation was designed to be high enough to prevent the 1% annual chance storm (100 year event) wave from over-topping the feature. The design worked as planned in all cases where the project had been completed. Comparable natural dunes with at least a 50-foot wide dry beach also prevented overwash especially in Barnegat Light Borough on the north end of Long Beach Island. There a re-alignment of the Barnegat Inlet south jetty in 1990 produced extensive beach accretion south into Loveladies greatly increasing the local storm protection.Work continues to complete the LBI project as designed by the ACOE starting in 2000. The passage of PL 113-2 by Congress in January 2013 provided the ACOE with the authorization to complete all Authorized, but yet unconstructed shore protection projects in New Jersey at 100% initial federal cost. The real estate issues continue to be an obstacle to moving forward on this work.

description: The best available line list of OH [Brooke et al. (2016)] contains the high-quality line frequencies, yet the line intensities need refinement because the model function used to interpolate the RKR potential and to extrapolate it into the repulsion region was not analytic [Medvedev et al. Mol. Phys. (2024)], and also because the coupling between the ground $X^2Π$ and first excited $A^2Σ^+$ electronic states was treated by the perturbation theory. In this paper, we performed ab initio calculations of all necessary molecular functions at $r=0.4$-8.0 bohr, and then we construct fully analytic model functions entering the Hamiltonian. The model functions were fitted to both the \ai\ data and the available experimental data on the line positions and energy levels, the relative line intensities, and the transition dipole moments derived from the measured permanent dipoles. The system of three coupled Schrödinger equations for two multiplet components of the $X$ state plus the $A$ state was solved to calculate the energy levels and the line intensities. The new set of the \EinA\ permits to decrease the scatter of the logarithmic populations of the ro-vibrational levels derived from the observed radiation fluxes [Noll et al. (2020)], to achieve better agreement with the measured relative intensities, and to obtain significant differences in the intensities of the $Λ$ doublets for large $v$ and $J$ as observed by Noll et al. The $X$-$A$ coupling fully modifies the Q-line intensities at high $J$ by removing the well-known $J^{-2}$ dependence. A new line list is constructed where the transition frequencies are from Brooke \etal\ and the \EinA\ are from the present study. However, not all the problems with the intensities were resolved, presumably due to the neglect of the interaction with the $^4Σ^-,^2Σ^-$ and $^4Π$ repulsive electronic terms.

description: Les PME marocaines, qui représentent une part importante de l'économie nationale, sont vulnérables face aux défis économiques, technologiques et structurels. La numérisation semble être une solution prometteuse pour renforcer leur résilience, Cependant, ces entreprises rencontrent des obstacles majeurs dans leur transition numérique, rendant crucial l'examen de ses avantages et de ses défis. Ce travail vise à présenter une revue de littérature narrative. Il définira brièvement la notion de défaillance des entreprises et énumérera les principales causes de leur faillite. Ensuite, il montrera les avantages et les opportunités offerts par la numérisation pour aider les dirigeants à assurer la pérennité et la durabilité de leurs entreprises. Enfin, il exposera les défis de l'intégration de la numérisation par les dirigeants de PME pour prévenir toute éventuelle défaillance, et présentera de certaines solutions tirées des travaux antérieurs pour surmonter ces défis. Une étude documentaire rigoureuse de la littérature existante sera menée pour contribuer à l'avancement des connaissances. En conclusion, la numérisation offre de nombreux avantages, comme une meilleure efficacité opérationnelle grâce à l'automatisation, un accès à de nouveaux marchés par les plateformes numériques et un renforcement de la prise de décision. Cependant, elle pose également des défis majeurs, tels que le manque de compétences numériques au sein des PME, les coûts élevés de son adoption et les problèmes de confidentialité des données. Pour relever ces défis, les entreprises doivent adopter une approche stratégique, soutenue par des politiques publiques favorisant la transformation numérique et des initiatives de formation. Des réussites existantes pourraient également inspirer les entreprises à franchir le pas malgré ces obstacles.

description: The spring and fall surveys of 2014 served to quantify the natural and human efforts to restore Atlantic County’s beaches to pre-Sandy conditions or in the case of existing federal shore protection projects, back to the design parameters. Data collected at the 10 oceanfront beach profile locations cover the municipal beaches from the City of Brigantine Beach to the Borough of Longport. Both the Absecon Island and Brigantine Beach US Army shore protection projects have been re-supplied with sand from the authorized borrow zones and restored back to each project’s design dune and beach cross section. Little Beach on Pullen Island to the north of Brigantine is a natural area and is not included in the NJBPN or any beach management program.
Recovery of contour nodes in interdependent directed networks

description: Extensive research has focused on studying the robustness of interdependent non-directed networks and the design of mitigation strategies aimed at reducing disruptions caused by cascading failures. However, real systems such as power and communication networks are directed, which underscores the necessity of broadening the analysis by including directed networks. In this work, we develop an analytical framework to study a recovery strategy in two interdependent directed networks in which a fraction $q$ of nodes in each network have single dependencies with nodes in the other network. Following the random failure of nodes that leaves a fraction $p$ intact, we repair a fraction of nodes that are neighbors of the giant strongly connected component of each network with probability or recovery success rate $γ$. Our analysis reveals an abrupt transition between total system collapse and complete recovery as $p$ is increased. As a consequence, we identify three distinct phases in the $(p, γ)$ parameter space: collapse despite intervention, recovery enabled by the strategy, and resilience without intervention. Moreover, we demonstrate our strategy on a system built from empirical data and find that it can save resources compared to a random recovery strategy. Our findings underscore the potential of targeted recovery strategies to enhance the robustness of real interdependent directed networks against cascading failures.

description: The Environmental Quality Laboratory at Caltech is a center for research on large scale systems problems of natural resources and environmental quality. The principal areas of investigation at EQL are:

1. Air quality management.

2. Water resources and water quality management.

3. Control of hazardous substances in the environment.

4. Energy policy, including regulation, conservation and
energy-environment trade-offs.

5. Resources policy (other than energy); residuals management.

EQL research includes technical assessments, computer modeling, studies of environmental control options, policy analyses, and research on important components of the large scale systems. Field work is also undertaken at EQL, some in collaboration with other organizations, to provide critical data needed for evaluation of systems concepts and models.

EQL's objectives are as follows:

1. To do systematic studies of environmental and resources problems. The results of these studies, including the clarification of policy alternatives. are communicated to decision-makers in government and industry, to the research community, and to the public. As an organization. EQL refrains from advocating particular policies, but seeks to
point out the implications of the various policy alternatives.

2. To contribute to the education and training of people in these areas through involvement of pre-doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows, and visiting faculty members in EQL activities. This educational effort is just as important as the results of the studies themselves, and should make lasting contributions to the nation's ability to solve its environmental and resources problems.

The work at EQL goes beyond the usual academic research in that it tries to organize and develop the knowledge necessary to clarify society's alternatives by integrating relevant disciplines. EQL works on solving problems of specific localities when there is a strong element of public interest or educational value, or the concepts and results are applicable to other places.

The research of EQL is done under the supervision of faculty members in Environmental Engineering Science, Chemical Engineering, and Social Science.

This research report covers the period from October 1983 through September 1985.

Cape May County - Great Egg Harbor Inlet to Stow Creek - NJBPN Profile #'s 225-100

description: Cape May County has 31 survey stations between Reeds Beach on the Western Cape May County shoreline, around Cape May Point and up the ocean coastline to Great Egg Inlet in Ocean City. This county has five tidal inlets separating four barrier islands and a complex coastal geomorphic compartment that is the site of Cape May City, a US Coast Guard base and Cape May Point. Each inlet has near identical geomorphic conditions with a narrow, rapidly changing southern spit that curves deep into the inlet, a large ebb-tidal delta offshore and a distinct offset in the seaward position of the southern inlet shoreline due to wave refraction around the ebb-tidal delta. This makes the northeast corner of each island vulnerable to northeast wave conditions especially when the main tidal channel lies close to the southern shoreline of the inlet.This has frequently expressed itself in Ocean City (the Gardens area), Strathmere in Upper Township, Avalon between 10th and 15th Streets, and North Wildwood between 2nd and 5th Avenues. These four “hot spots” all owe their high rates of beach erosion to inlet tidal current processes combined with incident waves impacting the adjacent shoreline. These four locations have consumed 50% of all sand placed in Cape May County since 1983. Three of the four sites are currently in the process of receiving maintenance sand placement with work to start in Strathmere, Avalon soon and currently going forward in North Wildwood.
