description: The seniority of debt, which determines the order in which a bankrupt institution repays its debts, is an important and sometimes contentious feature of financial crises, yet its impact on system-wide stability is not well understood. We capture seniority of debt in a multiplex network, a graph of nodes connected by multiple types of edges. Here, an edge between banks denotes a debt contract of a certain level of seniority. Next we study cascading default. There exist multiple kinds of bankruptcy, indexed by the highest level of seniority at which a bank cannot repay all its debts. Self-interested banks would prefer that all their loans be made at the most senior level. However, mixing debts of different seniority levels makes the system more stable, in that it shrinks the set of network densities for which bankruptcies spread widely. We compute the optimal ratio of senior to junior debts, which we call the optimal seniority ratio, for two uncorrelated Erdos-Renyi networks. If institutions erode their buffer against insolvency, then this optimal seniority ratio rises; in other words, if default thresholds fall, then more loans should be senior. We generalize the analytical results to arbitrarily many levels of seniority and to heavy-tailed degree distributions.

description: We investigate the impact of sinks of ionizing radiation on the reionization-era 21-cm signal, focusing on 1-point statistics. We consider sinks in both the intergalactic medium and inside galaxies. At a fixed filling factor of HII regions, sinks will have two main effects on the 21-cm morphology: (i) as inhomogeneous absorbers of ionizing photons they result in smaller and more widespread cosmic HII patches; and (ii) as reservoirs of neutral gas they contribute a non-zero 21-cm signal in otherwise ionized regions. Both effects damp the contrast between neutral and ionized patches during reionization, making detection of the epoch of reionization with 21-cm interferometry more challenging. Here we systematically investigate these effects using the latest semi-numerical simulations. We find that sinks dramatically suppress the peak in the redshift evolution of the variance, corresponding to the midpoint of reionization. As previously predicted, skewness changes sign at midpoint, but the fluctuations in the residual HI suppress a late-time rise. Furthermore, large levels of residual HI dramatically alter the evolution of the variance, skewness and power spectrum from that seen at lower levels. In general, the evolution of the large-scale modes provides a better, cleaner, higher signal-to-noise probe of reionization.

description: Additive manufacturing (AM) of copper is subject to dynamic development regarding available processes and the quality of produced parts. While challenging, AM processes for copper provide parts with a quality comparable to other metallic material groups like steels. The reasons for the lower prevalence of additive manufacturing of copper components in industrial applications are currently not sufficiently researched, especially in light of the significant progress made in the maturity of this technology. A survey is used to investigate the assessments of protagonists in the field of copper AM. The needs of current and potential users of copper AM are analyzed and outlined. This study reveals that the most relevant technical limitation for users is the reduced surface quality of parts, while overall processes need to become less costly and more reliable to find broader use. Answers given hint to a higher degree of automation, the possibility of multi-material processing, and the upscaling of machine and part sizes as relevant future trends in the copper AM sector.
Typological variation in grammatical relations

Year: 2011
Subjects: linguistic typology, grammatical relations

description: Chapter 1 argues that traditional grammatical relations, such as subject and object, are inadequate notions in describing the languages of the world, as grammatical relations are both construction-specific and language-specific. The construction-specific and language-specific nature of grammatical relations poses a serious challenge to any attempt to carry out a non-reductionist cross-linguistic research on grammatical relations. The standard response to this problem has been to either concentrate on individual constructions or to disregard the language-internal variation and typologize whole languages as exhibiting a particular alignment pattern. One of the major goals of this thesis is to develop a framework which systematically integrates most grammatical categories known to interact with grammatical relations and makes it possible to explore their typological diversity in their full ranges. After a review of the major developments in the study of grammatical relations (Chapter 2), Chapter 3 discusses the methodological foundation of the present study, and, in particular, addresses the issues of variables and their values in typological investigations and presents the autotypologizing method of variable identification. Chapter 4 addresses the issue of argumenthood and argument role distinction. After reviewing some popular approaches, I present the model of semantic role determination adopted in the present thesis, which relies heavily on Dowty’s (1991) agent and patient proto-role properties. Chapter 5 provides the first illustration of grammatical relations as equivalence sets of arguments and discusses the compatibility of this representation of grammatical relations with alignment in the traditional sense. Chapters 6 to 10 look closer at three common types of constructions which have been playing a central role in the discussion of grammatical relations (viz. case marking, agreement marking, and passivization and antipassivization). In each case, a more thorough investigation of the phenomenon at hand results in the extension and refinement of the list of variables and their possible values that are needed to account for grammatical relations established by these three construction types. Chapter 11 addresses the issue of argument selector distinction and variables required to account for the properties of individual constructions. For this purpose, a wider range of constructions relevant to grammatical relations is surveyed. Chapter 12 draws all the threads together and summarizes the new approach to the typology of grammatical relations.
Anomalous diffusion in stochastic systems with nonhomogeneously distributed traps

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The stochastic motion in a nonhomogeneous medium with traps is studied and diffusion properties of that system are discussed. The particle is subjected to a stochastic stimulation obeying a general Lévy stable statistics and experiences long rests due to traps the density of which depends on the position. The memory is taken into account by subordination of that process to a random time; then the subordination equation is position-dependent. The problem is approximated by means of a decoupling of the trap geometry and memory and exactly solved for a power-law trap density, corresponding to a fractal medium structure, in the case of the Gaussian statistics: the density distribution and moments are derived. Depending on geometry and memory parameters, the system may reveal both the subdiffusion and enhanced diffusion. A similar analysis is performed for the Lévy flights where the finiteness of the variance follows from a multiplicative noise, as a result of impurities and defects at the boundary. Two diffusion regimes are found: in the bulk and near the surface. The anomalous diffusion exponent as a function of the system parameters is derived.

description: Radiation feedback is typically implemented using subgrid recipes in hydrodynamical simulations of galaxies. Very little work has so far been performed using radiation-hydrodynamics (RHD), and there is no consensus on the importance of radiation feedback in galaxy evolution. We present RHD simulations of isolated galaxy disks of different masses with a resolution of 18 pc. Besides accounting for supernova feedback, our simulations are the first galaxy-scale simulations to include RHD treatments of photo-ionisation heating and radiation pressure, from both direct optical/UV radiation and multi-scattered, re-processed infrared (IR) radiation. Photo-heating smooths and thickens the disks and suppresses star formation about as much as the inclusion of ("thermal dump") supernova feedback does. These effects decrease with galaxy mass and are mainly due to the prevention of the formation of dense clouds, as opposed to their destruction. Radiation pressure, whether from direct or IR radiation, has little effect, but for the IR radiation we show that its impact is limited by our inability to resolve the high optical depths for which multi-scattering becomes important. While artificially boosting the IR optical depths does reduce the star formation, it does so by smoothing the gas rather than by generating stronger outflows. We conclude that although higher-resolution simulations, and potentially also different supernova implementations, are needed for confirmation, our findings suggest that radiation feedback is more gentle and less effective than is often assumed in subgrid prescriptions.

description: Domestic violence (DV) is a serious public health issue, with 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men experiencing some form of partner-related violence every year. Existing research has shown a strong association between alcohol use and DV at the individual level. Accordingly, alcohol use could also be a predictor for DV at the neighborhood level, helping identify the neighborhoods where DV is more likely to happen. However, it is difficult and costly to collect data that can represent neighborhood-level alcohol use especially for a large geographic area. In this study, we propose to derive information about the alcohol outlet visits of the residents of different neighborhoods from anonymized mobile phone location data, and investigate whether the derived visits can help better predict DV at the neighborhood level. We use mobile phone data from the company SafeGraph, which is freely available to researchers and which contains information about how people visit various points-of-interest including alcohol outlets. In such data, a visit to an alcohol outlet is identified based on the GPS point location of the mobile phone and the building footprint (a polygon) of the alcohol outlet. We present our method for deriving neighborhood-level alcohol outlet visits, and experiment with four different statistical and machine learning models to investigate the role of the derived visits in enhancing DV prediction based on an empirical dataset about DV in Chicago. Our results reveal the effectiveness of the derived alcohol outlets visits in helping identify neighborhoods that are more likely to suffer from DV, and can inform policies related to DV intervention and alcohol outlet licensing.

description: We present a global fit for $α_s(m_Z)$, analyzing the available C-parameter data measured at center-of-mass energies between $Q=35$ and $207$ GeV. The experimental data is compared to a N$^3$LL$^\prime$ + $\mathcal{O}(α_s^3)$ + $Ω_1$ theoretical prediction (up to the missing 4-loop cusp anomalous dimension), which includes power corrections coming from a field theoretical nonperturbative soft function. The dominant hadronic parameter is its first moment $Ω_1$, which is defined in a scheme which eliminates the $\mathcal{O}(Λ_{\rm QCD})$ renormalon ambiguity. The resummation region plays a dominant role in the C-parameter spectrum, and in this region a fit for $α_s(m_Z)$ and $Ω_1$ is sufficient. We find $α_s(m_Z)=0.1123\pm 0.0015$ and $Ω_1=0.421\pm 0.063\,{\rm GeV}$ with $χ^2/\rm{dof}=0.988$ for $404$ bins of data. These results agree with the prediction of universality for $Ω_1$ between thrust and C-parameter within 1-$σ$.

description: This thesis paper articulates the ideas, creative approach, and methodology with regard to the visual component of my thesis project. As a painter, I explore the concept of the ‘public realm’ by appropriating and disrupting environmental designers’ two dimensional perspective sketches. These stylized sketches, typically used for marketing purposes within the design profession, are distorted and warped into unsettling places. Idyllic visions of parks, waterfront plazas, playgrounds, and other nostalgic public places are transformed into doomsday scenarios through the injection of fragmented media images and individual memory of catastrophic events. By making the familiar feel unfamiliar, I hope to generate a series of enigmatic and uneasy associations for the viewer. The designer's intention to convert virgin space into a democratic, civic place becomes compromised and circumspect during these moments of danger. These places deny the viewer the comfort of representing any specific location, and yet seem uncannily familiar. Built form transgresses from a designer's optimistic sketch for the future into glimpses of destruction and uncertainty. The structure of the thesis begins with an introduction to the main themes of my research. Firstly, I explore a variety of approaches to the visualization of idealized public places. By discussion of the forms and intentions of Deconstructivist architecture and the notion of the architectural uncanny, I provide a theoretical backdrop toward the investigation of contemporary approaches to placemaking. I describe my background in environmental design and the impact of my Modernist training on my painting practice. Secondly, I describe how the preceding ideas are addressed in my painting practice. By situating my work with regard to contemporary painters such as Peter Doig, Daniel Richter, Neo Rauch, and Matthias Weischer, I investigate common themes or points of departure with respect to the representation of place and space, mark making, colour and composition in their work. Lastly, I focus on six paintings from my thesis project work. I describe the creative process for generating images, discuss source material, painting techniques, the use of the figure, specific influences and the intentions of each piece.

On the relevance of disorder in athermal amorphous materials under shear

description: We show that, at least at a mean-field level, the effect of structural disorder in sheared amorphous media is very dissimilar depending on the thermal or athermal nature of their underlying dynamics. We first introduce a toy model, including explicitly two types of noise (thermal versus athermal). Within this interpretation framework, we argue that mean-field athermal dynamics can be accounted for by the so-called H{é}braud-Lequeux (HL) model, in which the mechanical noise stems explicitly from the plastic activity in the sheared medium. Then, we show that the inclusion of structural disorder, by means of a distribution of yield energy barriers, has no qualitative effect in the HL model, while such a disorder is known to be one of the key ingredients leading kinematically to a finite macroscopic yield stress in other mean-field descriptions, such as the Soft-Glassy-Rheology model. We conclude that the statistical mechanisms at play in the emergence of a macroscopic yield stress, and a complex stationary dynamics at low shear rate, are different in thermal and athermal amorphous systems.
Using Holocaust music to encourage racial respect
Creators: name: Freeman, Tamara Reps
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2007

description: The rationale for the dissertation is based on the needs for a Holocaust Music Education Curriculum (HMEC) and Holocaust music research guide for grades K-12, in response to NJ Governor Christine Todd Whitman's 1994 Holocaust-genocide education mandate. Extant Holocaust-genocide curricula do not include the wealth of music composed by the Jewish people during the European Holocaust (1933-1945). Jewish Holocaust survivors and their musical manuscripts from European ghettos and concentration camps provide reliable and valid historic melodies that reflect their World War II experiences. The various melodies include lullabies, folk songs, partisan songs, and death marches. In addition to survivors' interviews, focus groups with K-12 music teachers and K-12 parents provided humanistic guidance for creating the HMEC. The purpose of the dissertation is to create a HMEC that is interdisciplinary among compatible subject areas: vocal music, general K-5 education, English, and social studies. Holocaust music is the focal point of the HMEC and is used among all subject areas to encourage racial respect and religious and cultural diversity. Understanding by Design (Wiggins and McTighe, 1998), a curriculum design theory, grounds the methodology of the dissertation. The HMEC is also grounded in aesthetic, praxial, and spiritual music education philosophies, giving teachers and students educational and emotional support and flexibility to face the challenges of Holocaust music education. Holocaust events and lessons of racial respect may have a better chance of coming alive for students through active listening, analyzing, and re-creating Holocaust melodies. This qualitative curriculum-design research follows the New Jersey mandated Holocaust-Genocide Studies K-12 Curriculum Guidelines and the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards. The researcher's premise is: students may take ownership of racial respect through studying the history, prose, and music of the Holocaust Jews.

description: The multiple scattering-based theory of Gaspari and Gyorffy for the electron-ion matrix element in close packed metals is applied to Im-3m H3S, which has been predicted by Duan {\it et al.} and Bernstein {\it et al} to be the stable phase at this stoichiometry around 190 GPa, thus is the leading candidate to be the phase observed to superconduct at 190K by Drozdov, Eremets, and Troyan. The nearly perfect separation of vibrational modes into those of S and of H character provides a simplification that enables identification of contributions of the two atoms separately. The picture that arises is basically that of superconducting atomic H stabilized by strong covalent mixing with S 3p and "3d" character. The reported isotope shift is much larger than the theoretical one,suggesting there is large anharmonicity in the H vibrations. Given the relative unimportance of sulfur, hydrides of lighter atoms at similarly high pressures may also lead to high temperature superconductivity.

title: The quantification of rates of total sediment influx to Lynn Goddionduon, Gwynedd.
Creators: name: Bloemendal, J.
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2023

description: (i) This study uses mineral magnetic parameters (e.g. magnetic susceptibility, saturation isothermal remanence and anhysteretic remanence) and lithostratigraphical description to correlate a suite of sed~ent cores sampled from a closely-meshed grid network covering the whole of a small upland lake basin in Gwynedd, North Waleso (ii) The core correlations are used to define three horizons within the lake sediment deposits: (1) the Loch Lomond Stadia I Clay - early Flandrian clay-mud contact, at the base of the Post-glacial sediment sequence. (2) A peak in magnetic susceptibility which is identified as a concentration of paramagnetic iron and manganese which are tentatively assumed to have entered the lake basin in solution. (3) A peak in magnetic susceptibility and magnetic remanence in the uppermost sections of the cores which is identified as a concentration of ferrimagnetic material. The correlated horizons define three contiguous layers of sediment within the lake basin. Contour maps of the thicknesses of the sediment layers are constructed and USed to estimate the volume of each layer. (iii) Radiometric dating (C-14 and Cs-137) is used to estimate the ages of the boundaries of the sediment layers, thereby enabling rates of total sediment influx and sediment yield per unit area of the terrestrial part of the watershed to be obtained. Sediment yield estimates of 36 kg/ha/yr, 1~6 kg/ha/yr and 263-326 kg/ha/yr were obtained for the periods (represent1ng the duration of the deposition times of the sediment layers) 10 400- 800 bp; 800 bp-AD 1951 and AD 1951-1977, respectively. (iv) Pollen analyses are used together with documented regional and local ?nvironmental history to provide a ccmtext for the eva'Lua.tdon of the est- ~mated rates of sediment yield. During the majority of the 10 400-800 bp period the watershed is likely to have been occupied by relatively undisturbed deciduous woodland, and during the 800 bp-AD 1951 period by grazed and possibly burnt-over moorland. The sediment yield for the AD 1951-1977 period is ascribed predominantly to soil erosion resulting from a forest :ire within the watershed in AD 1951. Comparison of the estimates of sed- ~~ent yield with those obtained using conventional geomorphological techn1ques in watersheds under comparable forms of land-use suggests some accordance. (v) The core correlations and sediment thickness contour maps depict the history of the spatial pattern of sediment accumulation within the lake baSin. The lake basin appears to have infilled asymmetrj.cal1y, with the f?CUS of sediment accumulation having moved progressively northwards with t1me. Marked variations in rates of sediment accumulation over short dist~ ces (tens of metres) are also evident. In contrast to the results ob- ~a~ed from other lake basins, the currently deepest part of the lake bas- 1n 1S virtually devoid of sediment. The observed patterns of sediment accumulation are tentatively assumed to be a response to wind stress.

Previous studies implemented deep learning using convolution neural network (CNN) algorithm in detecting polyp and non-polyp. Other studies used dropout, and data augmentation algorithm but mostly not checking the overfitting, thus, include more than four-layer modelss. Rulei Yu et.al from the Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences said that transfer learning is better talking about performance or improving the previous used algorithm. Most especially in applying the transfer learning in feature extraction. Series of experiments were conducted with only a minimum of 4 CNN layers applying previous used models and identified the model that produce the highest percentage accuracy of 98% among the other models that apply transfer learning. Further studies could use different optimizer to a different CNN modelsto increase accuracy.

description: In this study, we will investigate adults' ability to match emotional prosody with emotional facial configurations when they are forced to choose between emotions across valence (i.e., positive or negative) categories. Specifically, participants will be shown two faces and hear an utterance spoken with emotional prosody. They will be instructed to choose which face matches the emotion of the prosody. Prosody and faces will occupy four discrete emotion categories: two positive (happy and surprise) and two negative (anger and sadness). Participants will choose between the target face (e.g., happy) and a foil face across valence (e.g., anger). This study will measure participants' response time and accuracy. We predict that overall adults will be highly accurate on this task. In a future study, adults' performance on this task will be compared to their performance on a similar task wherein they're asked to choose between a target face and a foil face within the same valence. Further, this study will provide us with adult data with which to compare preschoolers' performance on the same task in a future study.

description: We analyze the optical, UV, and X-ray microlensing variability of the lensed quasar SDSS J0924+0219 using six epochs of Chandra data in two energy bands (spanning 0.4-8.0 keV, or 1-20 keV in the quasar rest frame), 10 epochs of F275W (rest-frame 1089A) Hubble Space Telescope data, and high-cadence R-band (rest-frame 2770A) monitoring spanning eleven years. Our joint analysis provides robust constraints on the extent of the X-ray continuum emission region and the projected area of the accretion disk. The best-fit half-light radius of the soft X-ray continuum emission region is between 5x10^13 and 10^15 cm, and we find an upper limit of 10^15 cm for the hard X-rays. The best-fit soft-band size is about 13 times smaller than the optical size, and roughly 7 GM_BH/c^2 for a 2.8x10^8 M_sol black hole, similar to the results for other systems. We find that the UV emitting region falls in between the optical and X-ray emitting regions at 10^14 cm < r_1/2,UV < 3x10^15 cm. Finally, the optical size is significantly larger, by 1.5*sigma, than the theoretical thin-disk estimate based on the observed, magnification-corrected I-band flux, suggesting a shallower temperature profile than expected for a standard disk.

description: During the summer, vast regions of Arctic sea ice are covered by meltwater ponds that significantly lower the ice reflectivity and accelerate melting. Ponds develop over the melt season through an initial rapid growth stage followed by drainage through macroscopic holes. Recent analysis of melt pond photographs indicates that late-summer ponds exist near the critical percolation threshold, a special pond coverage fraction below which the ponds are largely disconnected and above which they are highly connected. Here, we show that the percolation threshold, a statistical property of ice topography, constrains pond evolution due to pond drainage through macroscopic holes. We show that it sets the approximate upper limit and scales pond coverage throughout its evolution after the beginning of drainage. Furthermore, we show that the rescaled pond coverage during drainage is a universal function of a single non-dimensional parameter, $η$, roughly interpreted as the number of drainage holes per characteristic area of the surface. This universal curve allows us to formulate an equation for pond coverage time-evolution during and after pond drainage that captures the dependence on environmental parameters and is supported by observations on undeformed first-year ice. This equation reveals that pond coverage is highly sensitive to environmental parameters, suggesting that modeling uncertainties could be reduced by more directly parameterizing the ponds' natural parameter, $η$. Our work uncovers previously unrecognized constraints on melt pond physics and places ponds within a broader context of phase transitions and critical phenomena. Therefore, it holds promise for improving ice-albedo parameterizations in large-scale models.

description: Tunnelling mechanism is today considered a popular and widely used method in describing Hawking radiation. However, in relation to black hole (BH) emission, this mechanism is mostly used to obtain the Hawking temperature by comparing the probability of emission of an outgoing particle with the Boltzmann factor. On the other hand, Banerjee and Majhi reformulated the tunnelling framework deriving a black body spectrum through the density matrix for the outgoing modes for both the Bose-Einstein distribution and the Fermi-Dirac distribution. In contrast, Parikh and Wilczek introduced a correction term performing an exact calculation of the action for a tunnelling spherically symmetric particle and, as a result, the probability of emission of an outgoing particle corresponds to a non-strictly thermal radiation spectrum. Recently, one of us (C. Corda) introduced a BH effective state and was able to obtain a non-strictly black body spectrum from the tunnelling mechanism corresponding to the probability of emission of an outgoing particle found by Parikh and Wilczek. The present work introduces the quantum corrected effective temperature and the corresponding quantum corrected effective metric is written using Hawking's periodicity arguments. Thus, we obtain further corrections to the non-strictly thermal BH radiation spectrum as the final distributions take into account both the BH dynamical geometry during the emission of the particle and the quantum corrections to the semiclassical Hawking temperature.

description: Hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) is a layered two-dimensional material with properties that make it promising as a dielectric in various applications. We report the growth of h-BN films on Ni foils from elemental B and N using molecular beam epitaxy. The presence of crystalline h-BN over the entire substrate is confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Atomic force microscopy is used to examine the morphology and continuity of the synthesized films. A scanning electron microscopy study of films obtained using shorter depositions offers insight into the nucleation and growth behavior of h-BN on the Ni substrate. The morphology of h-BN was found to evolve from dendritic, star-shaped islands to larger, smooth triangular ones with increasing growth temperature.
Bayesian Ages for Early-Type Stars from Isochrones Including Rotation, and a Possible Old Age for the Hyades

description: We combine recently computed models of stellar evolution using a new treatment of rotation with a Bayesian statistical framework to constrain the ages and other properties of early-type stars. We find good agreement for early-type stars and clusters with known young ages, including beta Pictoris, the Pleiades, and the Ursa Majoris Moving Group. However, we derive a substantially older age for the Hyades open cluster (750+/-100 Myr compared to 625+/-50 Myr). This older age results from both the increase in main-sequence lifetime with stellar rotation and from the fact that rotating models near the main-sequence turnoff are more luminous, overlapping with slightly more massive (and shorter-lived) nonrotating ones. Our method uses a large grid of nonrotating models to interpolate between a much sparser rotating grid, and also includes a detailed calculation of synthetic magnitudes as a function of orientation. We provide a web interface at www.bayesianstellarparameters.info where the results of our analysis may be downloaded for individual early-type (B-V

title: A palaeoecological study of recent environmental change in the drainage basin of the Lac d'Annecy (France).

description: A palaeoecological study of sediments from the Lac d'Annecy has been undertaken in order to assess the impact of man on soil vegetation systems in the lake basin. The geology of the drainage basin is dominated by weakly magnetic calcareous Jurassic and Cretaceous deposits, but natural soil forming processes and artificial burning have produced assemblages of strongly magnetic minerals within topsoil's of the catchment area. These can be characterized by mineral magnetic parameters which are preserved as the eroded soil fractions become incorporated within the lake sediments. Man's impact on the landscape appears to have been most dramatically felt from c. 1100 AD; fossil pollen assemblages give evidence for widespread forest clearance, associated with arable and pastoral farming activities, which are thought to reflect the earliest intensive agricultural development of the higher slopes within the catchment area. At the same time there is a marked change in the nature of the sedimentary matrix. An increase in the concentration of major cations and magnetic minerals indicates a regime of more intensive soil erosion and a change in the magnetic mineral assemblage itself indicates a shift in the relative importance of different catchment sources to the total allochthonous material flux. Reconstruction of environmental change during more recent centuries has been aided by reference to primary and secondary documentary sources of evidence relating to past patterns of land-use. The mixed farming system of the eighteenth century, characterized by a regime of relatively intensive arable cultivation, was not particularly well-suited to the natural environment. A decrease in the concentration of major cations and magnetic minerals, together with a decline in the total sediment accumulation rate from the midnineteenth century onwards, is thought to reflect a fall in the rate of loss of material from catchment surfaces. It has been suggested this was related to a shift in focus of the rural economy from the semi-arable, semi-pastoral subsistence agricultural system to one which concentrated increasingly on the breeding of livestock for the local dairying industry.

description: Background: Stuttering is a speech disorder that causes repeated speech problems that make it hard to communicate. It has adverse effects on a stutterer’s self-esteem and personality. This study looked at a personality disorder called "avoidant personality disorder." This is a pattern of avoiding social situations, feeling like you're not good enough, and being overly sensitive to criticism (APA, 2013, p. 662). The purpose of this research was to examine the influence of self-esteem and social anxiety as predictors of avoidant personality disorder in people who stammer. Methods: In this research, 100 persons between the ages of 18 and 30 who stammer participated. The respondents completed the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire-4, the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, and the Social Anxiety Interaction Scale. Results: In results, it was revealed that self-esteem negatively predicted avoidant personality disorder. However, social anxiety positively predicted avoidant personality disorder. Self-esteem has found to have a negative relationship with social anxiety and avoidant personality disorder. Conclusions: The study is an important addition to the existing body of knowledge on the role of self-esteem and social anxiety in the prediction and mitigation of avoidant personality disorder among stutterers.
