description: Recent calls for a UN Convention on Soils begs the question about its feasibility and advisability. International conventions are most likely to be successful where the need for action is compelling, the effects of inaction immediate, dramatic and relatively certain, and there are significant international spillovers. Potential signatories to a convention must believe they would benefit in some way, and that these benefits cannot be obtained if they abstained. We examine the characteristics of six UN conventions related to environmental issues and argue that an international soil convention would not satisfy these and other criteria, and would therefore be difficult to implement.

description: In this research, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have been used as a powerful tool to solve the inverse kinematic equations of a parallel robot. For this purpose, we have developed the kinematic equations of a Tricept parallel kinematic mechanism with two rotational and one translational degrees of freedom (DoF). Using the analytical method, the inverse kinematic equations are solved for specific trajectory, and used as inputs for the applied ANNs. The results of both applied networks (Multi-Layer Perceptron and Redial Basis Function) satisfied the required performance in solving complex inverse kinematics with proper accuracy and speed.

description: The social and environmental benefits of establishing E. globulus plantations in south west Australia on previously cleared farmland are reviewed. Due to their sensitivity to drought, we study how this risk may affect the return on plantation investments. Productivity reductions of up to 40% in both rotations did not result in an internal rate of return lower than the threshold 10%. These results assume that growers could sell into the international market and receive export parity prices. If this case, large reductions in plantation productivity should not discourage investment and the reported social benefits should not be greatly affected.

description: Os preços de boi gordo em São Paulo servem de referência para praticamente todas as regiões do Brasil A caracterização do comportamento tendencial e oscilatórios desses preços pode orientar as tomadas de decisão de investidores privados e formuladores de políticas públicas, assim como, estudos referentes a previsões de preços e outras variáveis. O objetivo deste estudo foi detectar a existência e identificar as características das variações sazonais e cíclicas do preço de boi gordo, no estado de São Paulo, durante as décadas de 1970 a 2000. Neste estudo foi empregado um modelo univariado de séries temporais, que corresponde a análise da série de preços médios mensais de boi gordo para o estado de São Paulo. A análise de estacionariedade e de tendência foi feita com o emprego do Teste ADF. O método da média móvel foi utilizado para modelar a sazonalidade da série, enquanto que a análise espectral modelou o ciclo e, novamente, a sazonalidade. A análise permitiu verificar que as cotações de boi gordo apresentaram tendência de queda pouco acentuada no período de 1976 a 2004, com maior estabilidade nas décadas de 1990 e 2000. Detectou-se sazonalidade anual nos preços, com redução no primeiro e elevação no segundo semestre do ano. Essa sazonalidade mostrou-se menos acentuada no período 1990-2004. Constatou-se a existência de um período cíclico de longo prazo nas cotações, correspondente a 7 anos, o que pode ser atribuído aos efeitos dos processos de investimentos e desinvestimentos pecuários, em resposta ao comportamento dos preços.

description: Characterizing the dependence of the orbital architectures and formation environments on the eccentricity distribution of planets is vital for understanding planet formation. In this work, we perform statistical eccentricity studies of transiting exoplanets using transit durations measured via Kepler combined with precise and accurate stellar radii from the California-Kepler Survey and Gaia. Compared to previous works that characterized the eccentricity distribution from transit durations, our analysis benefits from both high precision stellar radii ($\sim$3%) and a large sample of $\sim$1000 planets. We observe that that systems with only a single observed transiting planet have a higher mean eccentricity ($\bar{e} \sim 0.21$) than systems with multiple transiting planets ($\bar{e} \sim 0.05$), in agreement with previous studies. We confirm the preference for high and low eccentricity subpopulations among the singly transiting systems. Finally, we show suggestive new evidence that high $e$ planets in the Kepler sample are preferentially found around high metallicity ([Fe/H] $>0$) stars. We conclude by discussing the implications on planetary formation theories.
Influence of 3D plasmoid dynamics on the transition from collisional to kinetic reconnection

description: Within the resistive magnetohydrodynamic model, high-Lundquist number reconnection layers are unstable to the plasmoid instability, leading to a turbulent evolution where the reconnection rate can be independent of the underlying resistivity. However, the physical relevance of these results remains questionable for many applications. First, the reconnection electric field is often well above the runaway limit, implying that collisional resistivity is invalid. Furthermore, both theory and simulations suggest that plasmoid formation may rapidly induce a transition to kinetic scales, due to the formation of thin current sheets. Here, this problem is studied for the first time using a first-principles kinetic simulation with a Fokker-Planck collision operator in 3D. The low-$β$ reconnecting current layer thins rapidly due to Joule heating before onset of the oblique plasmoid instability. Linear growth rates for standard ($k_y = 0$) tearing modes agree with semi-collisional boundary layer theory, but the angular spectrum of oblique ($|k_y|>0$) modes is significantly narrower than predicted. In the non-linear regime, flux-ropes formed by the instability undergo complex interactions as they are advected and rotated by the reconnection outflow jets, leading to a turbulent state with stochastic magnetic field. In a manner similar to previous 2D results, super-Dreicer fields induce a transition to kinetic reconnection in thin current layers that form between flux-ropes. These results may be testable within new laboratory experiments.

description: This report represents a core document of the GenB project. It compiles the results from all cocreation activities of innovative awareness, information and education approaches within the GenB project under task 1.3, namely the Common Ground Camp, the Focus Groups and the Living Labs, and provides an analysis on the reflective observations of these activities. All activities focused on three age groups (4-8, 9-13 and 14-19 years old) and were implemented in the GenB countries and beyond.The Living Labs organised in the GenB project aimed to co-create new approaches of cooperation in real life to drive collaboratively the bioeconomy transition with the aim of raising awareness, knowledge and solving problems affecting users. The work in the Living Lab was organised as a series of Living Lab workshops. The process was captured by a structured analysis and compiled synopsis (Chapter 4). It allows drawing conclusions on experiences and insights made during the Living Labs as well as presenting the new approaches developed by and for the three age-groups and lessons learned for improvement.The Common Ground Camp focused on designing activities, resources and educational proposals on bioeconomy for educating and attracting students of each age group. Based on this co-creation work developed by the groups at the Common Ground Camp, the document outlines the didactic proposals co-created for each age group (Chapter 5).

The Focus Groups aimed to identify young people’s preferences and motivations towards bioeconomy and to validate the methodologies and didactic proposals created in the Common Ground Camp. The results of the focus groups are presented in this report (Chapter 6), providing an overview of the most preferred educational formats according to the three age-groups.

In summary, this report is a valuable compilation of the GenB project's co-creation efforts, offering an understanding of the methodologies, results, and reflections that drive the project's mission to enhance bioeconomy education and awareness across diverse age groups.

description: This paper is devoted to the study of photothermal transformations in multilayered structures. As a modelled sample, porous silicon with a periodic distribution of the porosity was chosen. The spatial distribution of the optical properties inside the structure was evaluated under Brugmann approximation. The heat sources arising as a result of electromagnetic radiation absorption in the structure were estimated by solving Maxwell equations. This allowed us to calculate temperature profiles inside photo-excited sample. For experimental measurements, photoacoustic set-up with a gas-microphone transduction system was chosen to investigate thermal properties of the structure. The results of the photoacoustic response simulation based on the gas-piston model demonstrated an excellent agreement with experiments. This allows a reliable evaluation of the thermal conductivity by fitting the experimental amplitude-frequency photoacoustic signal with the simulated one.

description: The horizontal stirring properties of the flow in a region of the East-Australian Current are calculated. A surface velocity field derived from remotely sensed data, using the Maximum Cross Correlation method, is integrated to derive the distribution of the finite-time Lyapunov exponents. For the region studied (between latitudes 36 S and 41 S and longitudes 150 E and 156 E) the mean Lyapunov exponent during 1997 is estimated to be 4 x 10^{-7} s^{-1}. This is in close agreement with the few other measurements of stirring rates in the surface ocean which are available. Recent theoretical results on the multifractal spectra of advected reactive tracers are applied to an analysis of a sea-surface temperature image of the study region. The spatial pattern seen in the image compares well with the pattern seen in an advected tracer with a first-order response to changes in surface forcing. The response timescale is estimated to be 20 days.

description: The single-layer FeSe films grown on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates have attracted much attention because of its record high superconducting critical temperature (Tc). It is usually believed that the composition of the epitaxially grown single-layer FeSe/STO films is stoichiometric, i.e., the ratio of Fe and Se is 1:1. Here we report the identification of a large amount of excess Fe in the superconducting single-layer FeSe/STO films. By depositing Se onto the superconducting single-layer FeSe/STO films, we find by in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) the formation of the second-layer FeSe islands on the top of the first layer during the annealing process at a surprisingly low temperature ($\sim$150°C) which is much lower than the usual growth temperature ($\sim$490°C). This observation is used to detect excess Fe and estimate its quantity in the single-layer FeSe/STO films. The amount of excess Fe detected is at least 20% that is surprisingly high for the superconducting single-layer FeSe/STO films. The discovery of such a large amount of excess Fe should be taken into account in understanding the high-Tc superconductivity and points to a likely route to further enhance Tc in the superconducting single-layer FeSe/STO films.

description: Snow avalanches are a major threat for people and infrastructure in alpine regions. In Switzerland and other countries in the Alps, long term experience lead to an integral avalanche protection approach covering organizational measures, hazard maps and structural measures such as avalanche barriers or dams. However, in numerous regions around the world reliable hazard maps, combining avalanche cadaster information with terrain analysis, information on snow climatology, numerical modelling and expert knowledge are not yet elaborated because of uncomplete information and high costs. Even in Switzerland, detailed hazard maps with different danger levels only exist for selected areas where people and infrastructure are at high risk. In the canton Grisons, which is entirely covered by mountains, this is only the case for approximately 10% of the total area.

To provide reliable information on potential avalanche hazard in regions without detailed hazard maps, we develop an automated approach combining the delineation of potential avalanche release areas (PRA) with snow depth information and avalanche dynamic simulations. This approach, producing hazard indication maps over large regions for different scenarios (e.g. frequent and extreme), can be applied to any regions where high spatial resolution (2 – 10 m) digital elevation models (DEM) with an adequate quality and snow depth information are available. To assess the significance of the automated approach, we compare the result to detailed hazard maps available in the settlement area of Davos, Grisons, Switzerland where good avalanche cadastres exist. From the preliminary evaluation in collaboration with the canton Grisons, we conclude that the proposed approach has a big potential to produce large scale hazard indication maps, providing valuable first information on potential hazard. This is of particular interest in regions where no or only limited information on avalanche hazard exists, for example if new infrastructure is planned outside the settlement area.

description: The effect of quenched disorder on the low-energy properties of various antiferromagnetic spin ladder models is studied by a numerical strong disorder renormalization group method and by density matrix renormalization. For strong enough disorder the originally gapped phases with finite topological or dimer order become gapless. In these quantum Griffiths phases the scaling of the energy, as well as the singularities in the dynamical quantities are characterized by a finite dynamical exponent, z, which varies with the strength of disorder. At the phase boundaries, separating topologically distinct Griffiths phases the singular behavior of the disordered ladders is generally controlled by an infinite randomness fixed point.

description: This paper critically examines how gendered hierarchies and relations, particularly those between hegemonic masculinities and non-hegemonic gendered identities, manifest between students at a university in North West England in and through forms of online harassment, using data collected from a large-scale study (N= 810) conducted in this institutional context. Key findings indicate that some young masculinities subordinate non-hegemonic gendered identities, namely those who identify as female and transgender, in and through gendered and sexualised forms of online harassment or are complicit in these practices. Male research participants are more likely than any other gendered group to use ‘free speech' discourses to legitimate online harassment directed at transgendered and cis-female subjects. Some white, heterosexual males, who occupy a dominant position in Britain's gendered and racial social order, appropriate discursive practices associated with identity politics, which have historically been used by non-hegemonic gendered identities to challenge social inequities, to claim they are ‘victims’ of this society. We argue that these new emerging forms of hybridised hegemonic masculinity, which appropriate and reconfigure the discursive practices of non-hegemonic gendered identities, reproduce and conceal patriarchal systems of power in digitised spaces. We suggest more research is needed to better understand these practices, their relationship to alt-right influencers and men's rights activists, and their implications for digital hegemonic masculinities at the local level of UK university campuses.

 C o m m e n t: Xantholinus gridellii was revised and illustrated by ASSING (2007). This species is widespread and rather common in the Middle East, from Cyprus and South Turkey across Lebanon and Syria to Israel. In the original description of X. tronqueti, which is based on a unique male with a damaged aedeagus from " Syria: Lac Zanzar", BORDONI (2016a) does not compare this taxon with any other species, not even those recorded from Syria. As can be inferred from the photograph of the aedeagus, particularly its internal structures (BORDONI 2016a: figure 4), the holotype of X. tronqueti undoubtedly belongs X. gridellii. Hence the synonymy proposed above.

description: Recent measurements suggest our universe has a substantial dark energy component, which is usually interpreted in terms of a cosmological constant. Here we examine how much the form of this dark energy can be modified while still retaining an acceptable fit to the high redshift supernova data. We first consider changes in the dark energy equation of state and then explore a model in which the dark energy is interpreted as a fluid with a bulk viscosity.

description: The restricted hypercube-like graphs, variants of the hypercube, were proposed as desired interconnection networks of parallel systems. The matching preclusion number of a graph is the minimum number of edges whose deletion results in the graph with neither perfect matchings nor almost perfect matchings. The fractional perfect matching preclusion and fractional strong perfect matching preclusion are generalizations of the concept matching preclusion. In this paper, we obtain fractional matching preclusion number and fractional strong matching preclusion numbers of restricted hypercube-like graphs, which extend some known results.

description: The unusual viscoelastic properties of silica aerogel plates are efficiently used to design subwavelength perfect sound absorbers. We theoretically, numerically and experimentally report a perfect absorbing metamaterial panel made of periodically arranged resonant building blocks consisting of a slit loaded by a clamped aerogel plate backed by a closed cavity. The impedance matching condition is analyzed using the Argand diagram of the reflection coefficient, i.e., the trajectory of the reflection coefficient as a function of frequency in the complex plane. The lack or excess of losses in the system can be identified via this Argand diagram in order to achieve the impedance matching condition. The universality of this tool can be further exploited to design more complex metasurfaces for perfect sound absorption, thus allowing the rapid design of novel and efficient absorbing metamaterials.

description: Measurement invariance is crucial in counseling research and assessment because it ensures that scores have the same meanings across treatment conditions, time points, or diverse populations. We conducted a review and content analysis of articles that reported invariance testing and were published in selected counseling journals between 2010 and 2019 (N = 1165). Findings suggest a small proportion of published invariance tests (2.8%) had been undertaken by counseling researchers. We found that the majority of the articles that reported invariance testing in counseling research addressed gender and race/ethnicity. Implications for future research, counselor educator training, and clinical practice are discussed.

Grothendieck's Theorem for Operator Spaces

description: We prove several versions of Grothendieck's Theorem for completely bounded linear maps $T\colon E \to F^*$, when E and F are operator spaces. We prove that if E,F are $C^*$-algebras, of which at least one is exact, then every completely bounded $T\colon E \to F^*$ can be factorized through the direct sum of the row and column Hilbert operator spaces. Equivalently T can be decomposed as $T=T_r+T_c$ where $T_r$ (resp. $T_c$) factors completely boundedly through a row (resp. column) Hilbert operator space. This settles positively (at least partially) some earlier conjectures of Effros-Ruan and Blecher on the factorization of completely bounded bilinear forms on $C^*$-algebras. Moreover, our result holds more generally for any pair E,F of "exact" operator spaces. This yields a characterization of the completely bounded maps from a $C^*$-algebra (or from an exact operator space) to the operator Hilbert space OH. As a corollary we prove that, up to a complete isomorphism, the row and column Hilbert operator spaces and their direct sums are the only operator spaces E such that both E and its dual $E^*$ are exact. We also characterize the Schur multipliers which are completely bounded from the space of compact operators to the trace class.

description: A generalization of the standard susceptible-infectious-removed (SIR) stochastic model for epidemics in sparse random networks is introduced which incorporates contact tracing in addition to random screening. We propose a deterministic mean-field description which yields quantitative agreement with stochastic simulations on random graphs. We also analyze the role of contact tracing in epidemics control in small-world networks and show that its effectiveness grows as the rewiring probability is reduced.

description: A generalized method of image is developed to investigate the tunneling spectrum from the metal into a class of states, with the tight-binding dispersion fully included. The broken reflection symmetry is shown to be the necessary condition for the appearance of the zero-bias conductance peak (ZBCP). Applying this method to the d-wave superconductor yields results in agreement with experiments regarding the splitting of ZBCPs in magnetic field. Furthermore, a ZBCP is predicted for tunneling into the (110) direction of the d-density wave state, providing a signature to look for in experiments.

description: By having knowledge about the characteristics of protein interaction interfaces, we will be able to manipulate protein complexes for therapies. Dimer state is considered as the primary alphabet of the most proteins’ quaternary structure. The properties of binding interface between subunits and of noninterface region define the specificity and stability of the intended protein complex. Considering some topological properties and amino acids’ affinity for binding in interfaces of protein dimers, we construct the interface-specific recurrence plots. The data obtained from recurrence quantitative analysis, and accessibility-related metrics help us to classify the protein dimers into four distinct classes. Some mechanical properties of binding interfaces are computed for each predefined class of the dimers. The computed mechanical characteristics of binding patch region are compared with those of nonbinding region of proteins. Our observations indicate that the mechanical properties of protein binding sites have a decisive impact on determining the dimer stability. We introduce a new concept in analyzing protein structure by considering mechanical properties of protein structure. We conclude that the interface region between subunits of stable dimers is usually mechanically softer than the interface of unstable protein dimers.

Estimation of distributions via multilevel Monte Carlo with stratified sampling

description: We design and implement a novel algorithm for computing a multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) estimator of the cumulative distribution function of a quantity of interest in problems with random input parameters or initial conditions. Our approach combines a standard MLMC method with stratified sampling by replacing standard Monte Carlo at each level with stratified Monte Carlo with proportional allocation. We show that the resulting stratified MLMC algorithm is more efficient than its standard MLMC counterpart, due to the reduction in variance at each level provided by the stratification of the random parameter's domain. A smoothing approximation for the indicator function based on kernel density estimation yields a more efficient algorithm compared to the typically used polynomial smoothing. The difference in computational cost between the smoothing methods depends on the required error tolerance.
