The impact of Squoxin on aquatic invertebrates and an assessment of its fate in the aquatic environment
Creators: name: Staley, George Stephen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Squoxin, 1,1'-methylenedi-2-naphthol, is a pesticide developed to eradicate the northern squawfish, Ptychocheilus oregonensis. Investigations concerning the acute toxicity of the pesticide to aquatic invertebrates and an assessment of its fate in aquatic ecosystems are reported. Squoxin was found to be much less toxic to aquatic invertebrates than it was to squawfish. It was proposed that the toxicity of squoxin to aquatic invertebrates is inversely proportional to their adaptations to habitats having low levels of oxygen availability. The most sensitive invertebrate species tested was the blackfly larva, Simulium canadense, which is distributed in streams having high current velocity and abundant dissolved oxygen. These larvae exhibit an LC50 value of 60 ug/l in 48 hours. Chaoborus trivittatus larvae, known to tolerate anoxic conditions, were resistant to treatments up to 10 mg/1, exhibiting a maximum response of 30 percent in 96 hours. The degradation of Squoxin was monitored in surface waters of diverse origin. Degradation was most severe in water having a high pH and high alkalinity. Degradation was also found to occur due to the presence of dissolved organic compounds of high molecular weight. Freshwater bacteria did not exhibit any ability to utilize Squoxin as a carbon source in short term tests. A 100 ug/l Squoxin treatment depressed the natural heterotrophic activity of bacteria by nearly 25 percent based on studies of uptake of ¹⁴C-glucose over a 2 hour period. ¹⁴C-Squoxm residues initially adsorbed to phyto-plankton and organic sediment in simple laboratory microcosms. However, the residues steadily desorbed from these components and became increasingly soluble throughout the test period. Daphnia pulex and Hyalella azetca in the microcosms took up Squoxin rapidly in the first 24 hours after treatment. Uptake then levelled off and tissue concentration of Squoxin increased only at a very slow rate during the remainder of the test. Only small amounts of Squoxin were transferred to organisms feeding on contaminated food items when compared to the dose obtained from a contact exposure. C. trivittatus fed contaminated D. pulex retained only 6 percent of the ingested Squoxin residues. These residues, however, appeared to be retained for a longer period than tissue residues gained through a contact exposure. Invertebrates exhibited an ability to excrete Squoxin residues given time and an uncontaminated environment. D. pulex excreted over 90 percent of the toxicant in 96 hours; H. azteca required 275 hours. It was postulated that because of Squoxin's water solubility, low partition coefficient, rapid degradation, and the ability of a wide variety of organisms to excrete it, the toxicant would not be biologically magnified to a significant degree in aquatic ecosystems.

description: We use zoom-in cosmological simulations to follow the evolution of galaxies constrained to form in dark matter haloes of the same mass and spin at z=6,4 & 2. We pay particular attention to the influence of different feedback mechanisms (constant and variable galactic winds) on the morphological properties of the central galaxies as well as their gas contents. In addition, we have post-processed our galaxy sample with a radiative transfer scheme in order to get their observational properties as how they would be detected in the near future by the JWST.

description: We study the multipartite correlations of the multi-atom dark states, which are characterized by the atomic squeezing beyond the pairwise entanglement. It is shown that, in the photon storage process with atomic ensemble via electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) mechanism, the atomic squeezing and the pairwise entanglement can be created by adiabatically manipulating the Rabi frequency of the classical light field on the atomic ensemble. We also consider the sudden death for the atomic squeezing and the pairwise entanglement under various decoherence channels. An optimal time for generating the greatest atomic squeezing and pairwise entanglement is obtained by studying in details the competition between the adiabatic creation of quantum correlation in the atomic ensemble and the decoherence that we describe with three typical decoherence channels.

Distribution Function in Center of Dark Matter Halo

description: N-body simulations of dark matter halos show that the density profiles of halos behave as $ρ(r)\propto r^{-α(r)}$, where the density logarithmic slope $α\simeq 1\sim1.5$ in the center and $α\simeq 3\sim 4$ in the outer parts of halos. However, some observations are not in agreement with simulations in the very central region of halos. The simulations also show that velocity dispersion anisotropy parameter $β\approx 0$ in the inner part of the halo and the so called "pseudo phase-space density" $ρ/σ^3$ behaves as a power-law in radius $r$. With these results in mind, we study the distribution function and the pseudo phase-space density $ρ/σ^3$ of the center of dark matter halos and find that they are closely-related.

Water mite parasitism of water boatmen (Hemiptera:Corixidae)
Creators: name: Smith, Bruce Paul
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In this study the consequences of water mite parasitism on water boatmen were investigated, concentrating on two host species of the genus Cenocorixa. It was established that mite parasitism severely restricted egg production in Cenocorixa bifida Hung.: whether this should be attributed to a nutritional drain or through hormonal intervention was considered. The possibility of mite interference in flight ability and post-imaginal flight muscle development was also investigated. It was found that mite parasitism of C. bifida in the field varied considerably between habitats, salinity of the lake water influencing both the mite species involved and the prevalence of mite parasitism. When tested both in the field and laboratory, there was no apparent difference in parasitism rates based on the sex, morph or teneral development of the host. It was concluded that individuals of a species were equally susceptible to attack. There was, however, a very definite difference in susceptibility between host species based on equivalent exposure under laboratory conditions. When C. bifida and Cenocorixa expleta Uhler in particular were compared, C. expleta was significantly preferred by the four main mite species infecting C. bifida. This was substantiated in field data. Considering the prevalence of mites on C. bifIda, and the susceptibility of C. expleta to parasitism, the probability of the latter being parasitized approaches 100% in lakes within the salinity tolerance range of mites. When parasitism of these two host species was further investigated, it became apparent that C. expleta cannot sustain mite parasitism and in most cases, died. Past workers have noted the limited coexistence of C. expleta and C. bifida. Despite both species being physiologically fresh water insects, they only cohabit lakes in the upper salinity range of C. bifIda. When the relative abundance of these two species was compared over the salinity range in which they coexist, C. expleta was rare until the upper salinity limit of mites was reached. There was a defined change in their relative abundance at this point, C. expleta being in the majority when salinity was "above this limit. It is evident that water mites severely reduce the reproductive success of C. expleta in low salinities. They are therefore instrumental in influencing the outcome of any biological interactions between C. expleta and C. bifida in these lakes.

description: Mangrove trees have a complex structural design that contribute to various ecosystem processes and provide ecosystem services through multifunctional ecological habitats. The present study investigated the effects of habitat heterogeneity (the mangrove-vegetated and non-vegetated mudflat microhabitats) and environmental variables on polychaete density and biomass in the Gwadar mangrove ecosystem, Gulf of Oman. Based on these results, mudflats have a significantly higher density and biomass of polychaetes than vegetated microhabitats. The analysis of DistLM and dbRDA showed that the polychaete density and biomass were influenced by temperature, TOC, and silt/clay content in the two microhabitats. Habitat heterogeneity of mangrove trees affected the polychaete density and biomass in the mangrove ecosystem by changing the characteristics of the sediment between the two microhabitats.

Currently, my research is ongoing, and the software presented here is simplified and purely for demonstration purposes. Nevertheless, I consider this endeavor feasible and, with the right precautions, executable on consumer hardware.

description: The end of the Federal Helium Program and exit of the United States Government as the major producer
of helium has been anticipated for over two decades. The transition to full privatization of the sector has
led to changes in production and sourcing both domestically and abroad. Since the 2017 executive briefing
on helium, several events have sent shocks through the global helium market—which is key to the fields
of medicine, science, and defense. The most recent event, the 2022 shortage, is a combination of preexisting market conditions and stress from the Russia-Ukraine War. This executive briefing on trade will
provide an update on the helium market, highlight progress on U.S. privatization of helium and the effects
of the war as well as a discuss of shortages (past and present).

description: The Mediterranean is well-known for its rich biodiversity among the semi-enclosed seas which was affected from atmospheric-sea interactions coupled with globally ocean oscillations and El Nino as well as from the basin-wise decadal Bimodal Oscillating System (BiOS) and the Atlantic rim current. Besides invasion of non-indigenous species (NIS) in Levant Sea, to the Turkish coastal water recent introduction of Mediterranean indigenous species (IS) which are common in Western Mediterranean and Adriatic Sea is noteworthy to mention. During a study on mesozooplankton distribution along the Turkish Mediterranean coastal waters in summer 2019, one calanoid copepod species, Acartia (Hypoacartia) cf. adriatica which is widely distributed in Italian coasts followed by the Aegean Sea was identified for the first time for the Levant Sea and found numerous at one of 67 sampling stations in the study area. However, leg P5 of both female and male specimens was found to have slight differences as compared to the original drawings of A. (H.) adriatica found in Adriatic and Aegean populations. Furthermore, abundances of five phytoplankton species (two of them common in the Adriatic Sea) were estimated to be 50 to 100 fold higher at this particular station compared to the rest of the stations. Physicochemical (relatively lower salinity and unusually high nutrient levels during the summer period in Levantine basin) and biological properties of this single station fell apart from the neighboring stations. Previously, 17 gelatinous species were recorded in the Turkish seas in 2019-2020 when A. (H) cf. adriatica was recorded in the Levant basin and slight differences in P5 of female and male specimens compared to Adriatic and Aegean specimens were observed for the first time. If A. (H.) cf. adriatica from the Levant basin is a separate species from that of the Adriatic Sea, the migration could not be proposed (at least from W Mediterranean), or it should be considered as a possible migration from the Aegean Sea population, which is cl

description: Motivated by recent works of Sun and Tauraso, we prove some variations on the Green-Krammer identity involving central q-binomial coefficients, such as $$ \sum_{k=0}^{n-1}(-1)^kq^{-{k+1\choose 2}}{2k\brack k}_q \equiv (\frac{n}{5}) q^{-\lfloor n^4/5\rfloor} \pmod{Φ_n(q)}, $$ where $\big(\frac{n}{p}\big)$ is the Legendre symbol and $Φ_n(q)$ is the $n$th cyclotomic polynomial. As consequences, we deduce that $$ \sum_{k=0}^{3^a m-1} q^{k}{2k\brack k}_q &\equiv 0 \pmod{(1-q^{3^a})/(1-q)}, \sum_{k=0}^{5^a m-1}(-1)^kq^{-{k+1\choose 2}}{2k\brack k}_q &\equiv 0 \pmod{(1-q^{5^a})/(1-q)}, $$ for $a,m\geq 1$, the first one being a partial q-analogue of the Strauss-Shallit-Zagier congruence modulo powers of 3. Several related conjectures are proposed.

description: Surface brightness fluctuation (SBF) magnitudes are a powerful standard candle to measure distances to semi-resolved galaxies in the local universe, a majority of which are dwarf galaxies that have often bluer colors than bright early-type galaxies. We present an empirical $i-$band SBF calibration in a blue regime, $0.2 \lesssim (g-i)_0 \lesssim 0.8$ in the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) magnitude system. We measure SBF magnitudes for 12 nearby dwarf galaxies of various morphological types with archival HSC imaging data, and use their tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) distances to derive fluctuation - color relations. In order to subtract contributions of fluctuations due to young stellar populations, we use five different $g-$band magnitude masking thresholds, $M_{g,{\rm thres}} = -3.5, -4.0, -4.5, -5.0,$ and $-5.5$ mag. We find that the rms scatter of the linear fit to the relation is the smallest (rms = 0.16 mag) in the case of $M_{g,{\rm thres}} = -4.0$ mag, $\overline{M_i} = (-2.65\pm0.13)+ (1.28\pm0.24) \times (g-i)_0$. This scatter is much smaller than those in the previous studies (rms=0.26 mag), and is closer to the value for bright red galaxies (rms=0.12 mag). This calibration is consistent with predictions from metal-poor simple stellar population models.

description: The present study reports the capture of a specimen of Mcadam's scorpionfish Parascorpaena mcadamsi (Fowler, 1938) from the coast of Syria (eastern Mediterranean Sea). The specimen described in the present paper was small sized, measuring 128 mm in total length, 103 mm in standard length and weighing 44.9 grams. The native habitat of P. mcadamsi is located far from the Mediterranean Sea, in the Indo-Pacific where it is widely distributed. The morphology of the species does not appear to that of a good swimmer and this fish does not seem able of crossing such long distance. The specimen was probably introduced in the study area via ballast waters escape release and/or from an aquarium. This finding constitutes the first record of the species for the Syrian marine waters but also for the Mediterranean Sea. Comments and comparisons are made with other exotic scorpaenid species cited in this sea and the Black Sea.

description: Biofouling is a known phenomenon in the Suez Canal where fouling organisms settle in incredibly enormous amounts on different solid substrates. This is the first study to report the occurrence of heavily fouling on the exoskeletons of five species of crabs that have never been reported to host epibionts in the Canal. The Serapeum landing site was visited during August of 2022 and the fishermen's catch was examined. Records were made of fouled crabs whether they are common canal inhabitants or newly introduced species. Charybdis helleri, Halimede tyche, Myra subgranulata Atergatis roseus and Chlorodiella nigra were observed to have over 60% of their exoskeletons covered with macrofoulers. C. nigra was recorded here for the first time in the Canal. Six common macro-epibionts were observed: two species of acorn barnacles, one species of tube worms, one tunicate and two bivalves. The European flat oyster Ostrea edulis was recorded for the first time on a crustacean host in the Canal. The barnacle Amphibalanus amphitrite was the most common epibiont. The carapace was the most fouled part in both sexes followed by the abdomen, claws and pereopods. In conclusion, it seems likely that crabs not previously reported to host epibionts could carry these organisms into the Canal.

description: We propose a Transformer-based framework for 3D human texture estimation from a single image. The proposed Transformer is able to effectively exploit the global information of the input image, overcoming the limitations of existing methods that are solely based on convolutional neural networks. In addition, we also propose a mask-fusion strategy to combine the advantages of the RGB-based and texture-flow-based models. We further introduce a part-style loss to help reconstruct high-fidelity colors without introducing unpleasant artifacts. Extensive experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method against state-of-the-art 3D human texture estimation approaches both quantitatively and qualitatively.

description: We perform a study on quantum entropy production, different kinds of correlations, and their interplay in the driven Caldeira-Leggett model of quantum Brownian motion. The model, taken with a large but finite number of bath modes, is exactly solvable, and the assumption of a Gaussian initial state leads to an efficient numerical simulation of all desired observables in a wide range of model parameters. Our study is composed of three main parts. We first compare two popular definitions of entropy production, namely the standard weak-coupling formulation originally proposed by Spohn and later on extended to the driven case by Deffner and Lutz, and the always-positive expression introduced by Esposito, Lindenberg and van den Broeck, which relies on the knowledge of the evolution of the bath. As a second study, we explore the decomposition of the Esposito et al. entropy production into system-environment and intra-environment correlations for different ranges of couplings and temperatures. Lastly, we examine the evolution of quantum correlations between the system and the environment, measuring entanglement through logarithmic negativity.

description: Surface states of d_{x^2-y^2}-wave superconductors are studied using the Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory. For a [110] surface it has been known that the time-reversal symmetry (T) breaking surface state, (d+-is)-wave state, can occur if the bare transition temperature of the s-wave order parameter (OP) is positive. We show that even if this bare T_c is negative, it is possible to break T because the coupling to the spontaneously generated magnetic field may induce the s-wave OP. The T-breaking state is favored when the GL parameter (kappa) is small.

description: We study the Sobolev trace constant for functions defined in a bounded domain $Ø$ that vanish in the subset $A.$ We find a formula for the first variation of the Sobolev trace with respect to hole. As a consequence of this formula, we prove that when $Ø$ is a centered ball, the symmetric hole is critical when we consider deformation that preserve volume but is not optimal for some case.

description: We present a polymer quantization of spherically symmetric Einstein gravity in which the polymerized variable is the area of the Einstein-Rosen wormhole throat. In the classical polymer theory, the singularity is replaced by a bounce at a radius that depends on the polymerization scale. In the polymer quantum theory, we show numerically that the area spectrum is evenly-spaced and in agreement with a Bohr-Sommerfeld semiclassical estimate, and this spectrum is not qualitatively sensitive to issues of factor ordering or boundary conditions except in the lowest few eigenvalues. In the limit of small polymerization scale we recover, within the numerical accuracy, the area spectrum obtained from a Schrodinger quantization of the wormhole throat dynamics. The prospects of recovering from the polymer throat theory a full quantum-corrected spacetime are discussed.

description: The Maki-Thompson rumor model is defined by assuming that a population represented by a graph is subdivided into three classes of individuals; namely, ignorants, spreaders and stiflers. A spreader tells the rumor to any of its nearest ignorant neighbors at rate one. At the same rate, a spreader becomes a stifler after a contact with other nearest neighbor spreaders, or stiflers. In this work we study the model on random trees. As usual we define a critical parameter of the model as the critical value around which the rumor either becomes extinct almost-surely or survives with positive probability. We analyze the existence of phase-transition regarding the survival of the rumor, and we obtain estimates for the mean range of the rumor. The applicability of our results is illustrated with examples on random trees generated from some well-known discrete distributions.
Giant Orbital Hall Effect in Transition Metals: Origin of Large Spin and Anomalous Hall Effects

description: In transition metals and their compounds, the orbital degrees of freedom gives rise to an orbital current, in addition to the ordinary spin and charge currents. We reveal that considerably large spin and anomalous Hall effects (SHE and AHE) observed in transition metals originate from an orbital Hall effect (OHE). To elucidate the origin of these novel Hall effects, a simple periodic s-d hybridization model is proposed as a generic model. The giant positive OHE originates from the orbital Aharonov-Bohm phase factor, and induces spin Hall conductivity that is proportional to the spin-orbit polarization at the Fermi level, which is positive (negative) in metals with more than (less than) half-filling.

description: The energy and spectral shape of radio bursts may help us understand the generation mechanism of solar eruptions, including solar flares, CMEs, eruptive filaments, and various scales of jets. The different kinds of flares may have different characteristics of energy and spectral distribution. In this work, we selected 10 mostly confined flare events during October 2014 to investigate their overall spectral behavior and the energy emitted in microwaves by using radio observations from microwaves to interplanetary radio waves, and X-ray observations of GOES, RHESSI, and Fermi/GBM. We found that: All the confined flare events were associated with a microwave continuum burst extending to frequencies of 9.4 - 15.4 GHz, and the peak frequencies of all confined flare events are higher than 4.995 GHz and lower than or equal to 17 GHz. The median value is around 9 GHz. The microwave burst energy (or fluence) as well as the peak frequency are found to provide useful criteria to estimate the power of solar flares. The observations imply that the magnetic field in confined flares tends to be stronger than that in 412 flares studied by Nita et al. 2004. All 10 events studied did not produce detectable hard X-rays with energies above 300 keV indicating the lack of efficient acceleration of electrons to high energies in the confined flares.

keV Warm Dark Matter via the Supersymmetric Higgs Portal

description: Warm dark matter (WDM) may resolve the possible conflict between observed galaxy halos and the halos produced in cold dark matter (CDM) simulations. Here we present an extension of MSSM to include WDM by adding a gauge singlet fermion, \barχ, with a portal-like coupling to the MSSM Higgs doublets. This model has the property that the dark matter is {\it necessarily warm}. In the case where M_{\barχ} is mainly due to electroweak symmetry breaking, the \barχ mass is completely determined by its relic density and the reheating temperature, T_R. For 10^2 GeV < T_{R} < 10^{5} GeV$, the range allowed by \bar{chi} production via thermal Higgs annihilation, the \barχ mass is in the range 0.3-4 keV, precisely the range required for WDM. The primordial phase-space density, Q, can directly account for that observed in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, Q \approx 5 x 10^{6}(eV/cm^3)/(km/s)^3,, when the reheating temperature is in the range T_R \approx 10-100 TeV, in which case M_{\barχ} \approx 0.45 keV. The free-streaming length is in the range 0.3-4 Mpc, which can be small enough to alleviate the problems of overproduction of galaxy substructure and low angular momentum of CDM simulations.

Seismic analysis of 70 Ophiuchi A: A new quantity proposed

description: The basic intent of this paper is to model 70 Ophiuchi A using the latest asteroseismic observations as complementary constraints and to determine the fundamental parameters of the star. Additionally, we propose a new quantity to lift the degeneracy between the initial chemical composition and stellar age. Using the Yale stellar evolution code (YREC7), we construct a series of stellar evolutionary tracks for the mass range $M$ = 0.85 -- 0.93 $M_{\odot}$ with different composition $Y_{i}$ (0.26 -- 0.30) and $Z_{i}$ (0.017 -- 0.023). Along these tracks, we select a grid of stellar model candidates that fall within the error box in the HR diagram to calculate the theoretical frequencies, the large- and small- frequency separations using the Guenther's stellar pulsation code. Following the asymptotic formula of stellar $p$-modes, we define a quantity $r_{01}$ which is correlated with stellar age. Also, we test it by theoretical adiabatic frequencies of many models. Many detailed models of 70 Ophiuchi A have been listed in Table 3. By combining all non-asteroseismic observations available for 70 Ophiuchi A with these seismological data, we think that Model 60, Model 125 and Model 126, listed in Table 3, are the optimum models presently. Meanwhile, we predict that the radius of this star is about 0.860 -- 0.865 $R_{\odot}$ and the age is about 6.8 -- 7.0 Gyr with mass 0.89 -- 0.90 $M_{\odot}$. Additionally, we prove that the new quantity $r_{01}$ can be a useful indicator of stellar age.

description: Insider attacks are one of the most challenging cybersecurity issues for companies, businesses and critical infrastructures. Despite the implemented perimeter defences, the risk of this kind of attack is still very high. In fact, the detection of insider attacks is a very complicated security task and presents a serious challenge to the research community. In this paper, we aim to address this issue by using deep learning algorithms Autoencoder and Variational Autoencoder deep. We will especially investigate the usefulness of applying these algorithms to automatically defend against potential internal threats, without human intervention. The effectiveness of these two models is evaluated on the public dataset CERT dataset (CERT r4.2). This version of the CERT Insider Threat Test dataset includes both benign and malicious activities generated from 1000 simulated users. The comparison results with other models show that the Variational Autoencoder neural network provides the best overall performance with a greater detection accuracy and a reasonable false positive rate
