description: Σκοπός της παρούσας μεταπτυχιακής εργασίας είναι η διερεύνηση: (α) των πεποιθήσεων των εκπαιδευτικών πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης για την αξιολόγηση των σχολείων τους, (β) του βαθμού στον οποίο η πραγματικότητα ανταποκρίνεται στις προσδοκίες ως προς το ζήτημα της αξιολόγησης και (γ) του βαθμού στον οποίο τα ελληνικά σχολεία πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης καλύπτουν τρεις διαφορετικές διαστάσεις ποιότητας, ήτοι αυτή της παιδαγωγικής και μαθησιακής λειτουργίας, της διοικητικής λειτουργίας και της εκπαιδευτικής ανάπτυξης των εκπαιδευτικών. Ο σκοπός αυτός καλύφθηκε μέσω ποσοτικής έρευνας, στην οποία συμμετείχαν 191 εκπαιδευτικοί της ελληνικής πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης. Για την συλλογή του ερευνητικού δείγματος ακολουθήθηκε η δειγματοληψία ευκολίας και χιονοστιβάδας. Τα ερευνητικά δεδομένα συγκεντρώθηκαν ηλεκτρονικά και η στατιστική ανάλυση έγινε χρησιμοποιώντας το SPSS. Τα αποτελέσματα έδειξαν ότι, οι προσδοκίες των εκπαιδευτικών της ελληνικής πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης για την αξιολόγηση των σχολείων, δεν ανταποκρίνονται στην επικρατούσα πραγματικότητα στα σχολεία τους. Επίσης, αποδείχτηκε ότι οι τρεις ανωτέρω αναφερόμενες διαστάσεις ποιότητας, καλύπτονται σε μέτριο βαθμό από τα ελληνικά σχολεία πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης. Μεταξύ τους, οι διαστάσεις αυτές εμφανίζουν θετική και στατιστικά σημαντική συσχέτιση.
description: The purpose of this dissertation is (a) to investigate the beliefs of primary school teachers about the evaluation of their schools, (b) the extent to which reality meets expectations regarding the issue of evaluation and (c) the extent to which Greek primary schools cover three different dimensions of quality, namely that of the pedagogical and learning function, the administrative function and the educational development of the teachers. This purpose was met through a quantitative survey, in which 191 teachers of Greek primary education participated. Convenience and snowball sampling were followed to collect the research sample. Research data were collected electronically, and statistical analysis was done using SPSS. The results showed that the expectations of Greek primary education teachers for the evaluation of schools do not correspond to the prevailing reality in their schools. Also, it was proven that the three above-mentioned quality dimensions are covered to a moderate extent by Greek primary education schools. Among these three dimensions there is a positive and statistically significant correlation.

description: New Mexican Matachines dances have long been discussed as descendent dances of medieval morescas. This article explores this ‘ancestral relation’, beginning on New Year’s Day in 1896 at the colonial outpost of Cubero, New Mexico. There, the German art historian Aby Warburg met a local shepherd who endeavoured to explain the pantomimic killing of a bull in the dance drama by saying the blood was ‘good for making sausages.’ Accordingly, this article investigates Warburg’s lifelong exploration of Matachines antecedents in the margins of his research on early Italian Renaissance images of medieval festive drama, and ‘headhuntress’ figures, such as Judith and Salome. Warburg’s thoughts on New Mexican Matachines meandered over the course of his life from Aztec sacrifice to medieval morescas, to the Mithras cult. Through these explorations, Warburg pursued a cultural evolutionary theory that would situate New Mexican Matachines as a descendent of antique pagan blood ceremony.
description: Die mögliche Abstammung der neumexikanischen Matachines-Tänze von den mittelalterlichen Morescas (Moriskentänze) wird seit langem in der Forschung diskutiert. Vorliegender Artikel analysiert diese ‚‘angestammte Beziehung’ ausgehend von den Beobachtungen des deutschen Kunsthistorikers Aby Warburg bei einem Fest am Neujahrstag 1896 im kolonialen Außenposten von Cubero, Neumexiko. Dort traf er einen örtlichen Hirten, der die pantomimische Tötung eines Stiers im Tanzdrama damit zu erklären versuchte, dass dessen Blut “gut zum Würstemachen” sei. Daran anschließend untersucht dieser Artikel Warburgs lebenslange Erkundung der Vorgeschichte der Matachines am Rande seiner Forschungen zu den Bildern der frühen italienischen Renaissance, des mittelalterlichen Festdramas sowie der “Kopfjägerinnen” wie Judith und Salome. Warburgs Gedanken zu den neumexikanischen Matachines wanderten im Laufe seines Lebens von aztekischen Opfern über mittelalterliche Morescas bis hin zum Mithraskult, wobei er eine kulturelle Evolutionstheorie verfolgte, welche die neumexikanischen Matachines als Abkömmlinge antiker heidnischer Blutzeremonien ansieht.

description: Silybum marianum (L.) Gaertn (Milk thistle) is an important medicinal plant which fruits are used for treatment of various liver diseases. In an effort to utilize the genetic potential of cultivated plants in the best way, the breeding of new high-performance cultivars is underway all over the world. Genetic improvement in Silybum can only be, as with all other plants, achieved through a clear understanding of the plant´s behaviour and the amount of variability presented in wild populations. Surprisingly no descriptor list has been compiled up to now, which would permit an objective and easily repeatable description an evaluation of the different Silybum genotypes. The first part of such a descriptor list, which is intended mainly for evaluation of genotypes perspective for fruit production, is presented here and it contains both the morphological and biological characters.

Place Wanted Alive: Seeking Spatial Justice Amongst Dispossession and Displacement
Creators: name: DeGrauw, Anna
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: This thesis aims to tease the tension between how Kenyan state-led efforts on land governance has impacted residents living in informal settlement called Kibera, in Nairobi. Taking the investigation a step further, this thesis also serves to illustrate how residents in informal settlements are creating place amongst disenfranchisement of socio-economic human rights clearly stated in the 2010 Constitution of Kenya. The thesis aims to illustrate the intricacies of a place that stretches beyond the mere physical geography of an informal settlement, and demonstrates the complexities and power of social cohesion, even amongst demolition projects which are contributing to dispossession and displacement for certain Kenyan citizens.The title of this thesis, “Place Wanted Alive” is a transformation from the name of a social movement called “Peace Wanted Alive” in Kibera, which will serve as a case study for this thesis. Place Wanted Alive illustrates how place and space can be destroyed through efforts of land tenure policies, but also revived through experiences of residents in informal settlements; the polarization between actions are both significant contributions to placemaking, which will be explored in the following chapters. The power of a place extends beyond its physical containment and is a site for revival and resistance.
Goethite Mineral Dissolution to Probe the Chemistry of Radiolytic Water in Liquid-Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy

description: Liquid-Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy (LP-TEM) enables in situ observations of the dynamic behavior of materials in liquids at high spatial and temporal resolution. During LP-TEM, incident electrons decompose water molecules into highly reactive species. Consequently, the chemistry of the irradiated aqueous solution is strongly altered, impacting the reactions to be observed. However, the short lifetime of these reactive species prevent their direct study. Here, the morphological changes of goethite during its dissolution are used as a marker system to evaluate the influence of radiation on the changes in solution chemistry. At low electron flux density, the morphological changes are equivalent to those observed under bulk acidic conditions, but the rate of dissolution is higher. On the contrary, at higher electron fluxes, the morphological evolution does not correspond to a unique acidic dissolution process. Combined with kinetic simulations of the steady state concentrations of generated reactive species in the aqueous medium, the results provide a unique insight into the redox and acidity interplay during radiation induced chemical changes in LP-TEM. The results not only reveal beam-induced radiation chemistry via a nanoparticle indicator, but also open up new perspectives in the study of the dissolution process in industrial or natural settings.

description: Since Dicke's seminal paper on coherence in spontaneous radiation by atomic ensembles, superradiance has been extensively studied. Subradiance, on the contrary, has remained elusive, mainly because subradiant states are weakly coupled to the environment and are very sensitive to nonradiative decoherence processes.Here we report the experimental observation of subradiance in an extended and dilute cold-atom sample containing a large number of particles. We use a far detuned laser to avoid multiple scattering and observe the temporal decay after a sudden switch-off of the laser beam. After the fast decay of most of the fluorescence, we detect a very slow decay, with time constants as long as 100 times the natural lifetime of the excited state of individual atoms. This subradiant time constant scales linearly with the cooperativity parameter, corresponding to the on-resonance optical depth of the sample, and is independent of the laser detuning, as expected from a coupled-dipole model.
A Low-Cost, Non-Contact, Optical Imaging Pulse-Oximeter System
Creators: name: Romero, Alexa
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This thesis proposed the design and construction of a low-cost, non-contact, optical imaging system capable of data acquisition useful in calculating blood oxygenation and heart rate. This system essentially behaves the same way as traditional pulse-oximetry, with the modifications that it acts at a distance and calculates oxygenation over the pixels of an image rather than from a single photo-transducer.  The system illuminates the human forearm with 660nm and 910nm wavelengths independently and acquires high frequency images at these two wavelengths. This allows for resolution of two distinct, wavelength-dependent absorption curves.  The system is capable of measuring statistically significant changes in light absorption of biological tissue over time (p-value<0.05). By performing single and multi pixel analysis over images acquired at a high enough frequency to resolve pulsatile information the system is capable of perfusion mapping. The highly vascularized imaged area are highlighted by the system, illustrating vein location and increased blood flow. Issues with synchronizing the high frequency image acquisition with the illumination switching limited the system’s ability to produce measurements required for blood oxygen calibration techniques. Further research should be performed to analyze the depth capabilities of the system and whether it can be applied to areas other than the forearm.

description: This essay examines the dramatization of a new model of selfhood in U.S. naturalist fiction at the turn of the twentieth century and how it was taken up by advice literature during the interwar years. By tracing a lineage of the self through the characterological types of the caveman, genius, artist, and entrepreneur, the essay shows how the construction of the caveman as a more vital self than the bourgeois individual at the turn of the twentieth century morphed into a biologized notion of Romantic genius and further into configurations of artists and entrepreneurs as the century progressed. As the types shade into each other in naturalist fiction and advice literature, they represent a new model for successful working and living that fuses expressive and economic goals, and which anticipates contemporary constructions of work as a pursuit of creative self-expression and self-actualization.

description: Nucleosynthesis of heavy elements requires the use of different experimental and theoretical methods to determine astrophysical reaction rates than light element nucleosynthesis. Additionally, there are also larger uncertainties involved in the astrophysical models, both because the sites are not well known and because of differing numerical treatments in different models. As an example for the latter, the production of p-nuclei is compared in two different stellar models, demonstrating that a model widely used for postproduction calculations may have a zone grid too coarse to follow the synthesis of p-nuclei in detail.

description: Background and Objectives Model-informed precision dosing (MIPD) frequently uses nonlinear mixed-effects (NLME) models to predict and optimize therapy outcomes based on patient characteristics and therapeutic drug monitoring data. MIPD is indicated for compounds with narrow therapeutic range and complex pharmacokinetics (PK), such as voriconazole, a broad-spectrum antifungal drug for prevention and treatment of invasive fungal infections. To provide guidance and recommendations for evidence-based application of MIPD for voriconazole, this work aimed to (i) externally evaluate and compare the predictive performance of a published so-called ‘hybrid’ model for MIPD (an aggregate model comprising features and prior information from six previously published NLME models) versus two ‘standard’ NLME models of voriconazole, and (ii) investigate strategies and illustrate the clinical impact of Bayesian forecasting for voriconazole. Methods A workflow for external evaluation and application of MIPD for voriconazole was implemented. Published voriconazole NLME models were externally evaluated using a comprehensive in-house clinical database comprising nine voriconazole studies and prediction-/simulation-based diagnostics. The NLME models were applied using different Bayesian forecasting strategies to assess the influence of prior observations on model predictivity. Results The overall best predictive performance was obtained using the aggregate model. However, all NLME models showed only modest predictive performance, suggesting that (i) important PK processes were not sufficiently implemented in the structural submodels, (ii) sources of interindividual variability were not entirely captured, and (iii) interoccasion variability was not adequately accounted for. Predictive performance substantially improved by including the most recent voriconazole observations in MIPD. Conclusion Our results highlight the potential clinical impact of MIPD for voriconazole and indicate the need for a comprehensive (pre-)clinical database as basis for model development and careful external model evaluation for compounds with complex PK before their successful use in MIPD.

description: COVID-19 caused widespread disruption to educational institutions across the world during the 2019-2020 academic year. The closure of residence halls and moves to distance/remote learning may hit entering freshmen particularly hard, as these events occurred just as those students were beginning a transition to independence. This project examines the impact of COVID-19 on 2019-2020 freshmen mental health, identity development and persistence in education. In addition, we assess whether individual differences in the way students experience and make sense of the impact of COVID-19 on their lives are associated with better mental health and identity development, and greater persistence in education.
Newborn Individual Development Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP): A Follow-up Systematic Review of the Literature
Creators: name: Nelson, Kathryn
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Aim: To complete a follow-up systematic review of the literature since Wallin and Eriksson (2009) to evaluate how the Newborn Individual Development Care and Assessment Program (NIDCAP) literature has evolved and what, if any, progress related to the effects of development in preterm infants has been made with a focus on neurological and psychological development, treatment and medical outcomes, family perceptions, and economic impact.Background: As a team approach model, NIDCAP requires trained health care professionals to observe the neonate during care procedures leading to individualized care recommendations appropriate for the neurological development of the neonate.  Method: A literature search from 2007-2018 was performed. The reviewed papers were assessed for methodological quality and only statistically significant findings were extracted.Findings: Evidence from five articles containing a total of seven randomized control trials with an estimated 771 infants contribute to the effects of NIDCAP versus other care in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Significant differences for increased neurological development were found favoring NIDCAP for infants with intrauterine growth restriction at two weeks and nine weeks corrected age. There were no significant findings for family reported quality of health; parental perception of stress, confidence, or nurse support; days in intensive care; days of respiratory support; or infant growth.  No studies were found to discuss the economic impact of implementing NIDCAP. Conclusion: Results primarily show support for increasing neurological development of premature infants. Most studies are impeded by sample size or length of intervention. Further studies addressing these limitations could strengthen the findings of this study.
Transformations of asymptotic gravitational-wave data

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Gravitational-wave data is gauge dependent. While we can restrict the class of gauges in which such data may be expressed, there will still be an infinite-dimensional group of transformations allowed while remaining in this class, and almost as many different---though physically equivalent---waveforms as there are transformations. This paper presents a method for calculating the effects of the most important transformation group, the Bondi-Metzner-Sachs (BMS) group, consisting of rotations, boosts, and supertranslations (which include time and space translations as special cases). To a reasonable approximation, these transformations result in simple coupling between the modes in a spin-weighted spherical-harmonic decomposition of the waveform. It is shown that waveforms from simulated compact binaries in the publicly available SXS waveform catalog contain unmodeled effects due to displacement and drift of the center of mass, accounting for mode-mixing at typical levels of 1%. However, these effects can be mitigated by measuring the average motion of the system's center of mass for a portion of the inspiral, and applying the opposite transformation to the waveform data. More generally, controlling the BMS transformations will be necessary to eliminate the gauge ambiguity inherent in gravitational-wave data for both numerical and analytical waveforms. Open-source code implementing BMS transformations of waveforms is included along with this paper in the supplemental materials.

Sub and super-luminar propagation of structures satisfying Poynting like theorem for incompressible GHD fluid model depicting strongly coupled dusty plasma medium

description: The strongly coupled dusty plasma has often been modelled by the Generalized Hydrodynamic (GHD) model used for representing visco-elastic fluid systems. The incompressible limit of the model which supports transverse shear wave mode is studied in detail. In particular dipole structures are observed to emit transverse shear waves in both the limits of sub and super - luminar propagation, where the structures move slower and faster than the phase velocity of the shear waves, respectively. In the sub - luminar limit the dipole gets engulfed within the shear waves emitted by itself, which then backreacts on it and ultimately the identity of the structure is lost. However, in the super - luminar limit the emission appears like a wake from the tail region of the dipole. The dipole, however, keeps propagating forward with little damping but minimal distortion in its form. A Poynting like conservation law with radiative, convective and dissipative terms being responsible for the evolution of W , which is similar to `enstrophy' like quantity in normal hydrodynamic fluid systems, has also been constructed for the incompressible GHD equations. The conservation law is shown to be satisfied in all the cases of evolution and collision amidst the nonlinear structures to a great accuracy. It is shown that monopole structures which do not move at all but merely radiate shear waves, the radiative term and dissipative losses solely contribute to the evolution of W. The, dipolar structures, on the other hand, propagate in the medium and hence convection also plays an important role in the evolution of W.

description: Nanoelectrospray ionization (nano-ESI) is a highly efficient and a widely used technique for the ionization of minute amounts of analyte. Offline nano-ESI sources are convenient for the direct infusion of complex mixtures that suffer from high matrix content and are crucial for the native mass spectrometric analysis of proteins. For Bruker instruments, no such source is readily available. Here we close this gap and present a 3D-printable nano-ESI source for Bruker instruments, which can be assembled by anyone with access to 3D printers. The source can be fitted to any Bruker mass spectrometer with an ionBooster ESI source and only requires minor, reversible changes to the original Bruker hardware. The general utility was demonstrated by recording high-resolution MS spectra of small molecules, intact proteins, as well as complex biological samples in negative and positive ion mode on two different Bruker instruments.

description: We present impedance boundary conditions for the viscoacoustic equations for approximative models that are in terms of the acoustic pressure or in terms of the macroscropic acoustic velocity. The approximative models are derived by the method of multiple scales up to order 2 in the boundary layer thickness. The boundary conditions are stable and asymptotically exact, which is justified by a complete mathematical analysis. The models can be discretized by finite element methods without resolving boundary layers. In difference to an approximation by asymptotic expansion for which for each order 1 PDE system has to be solved, the proposed approximative are solutions to one PDE system only. The impedance boundary conditions for the pressure of first and second orders are of Wentzell type and include a second tangential derivative of the pressure proportional to the square root of the viscosity and take thereby absorption inside the viscosity boundary layer of the underlying velocity into account. The conditions of second order incorporate with curvature the geometrical properties of the wall. The velocity approximations are described by Helmholtz‐like equations for the velocity, where the Laplace operator is replaced by ∇div, and the local boundary conditions relate the normal velocity component to its divergence. The velocity approximations are for the so‐called far field and do not exhibit a boundary layer. Including a boundary corrector, the so‐called near field, the velocity approximation is accurate even up to the domain boundary. The results of numerical experiments illustrate the theoretical foundations.

description: A common characteristic of individuals with alcohol use disorders (AUDs) is impulsive behavior, as quantified by a Delay Discounting (DD) task; those with AUDs are more likely to choose smaller, sooner rewards relative to control participants. This tendency is also observed among heavy, subclinical drinkers, and emerging adults (ages 18-25). DD can be reduced in healthy controls by visualizing oneself in the future (episodic prospection); the magnitude of this behavioral change positively correlates with functional connectivity between the medial prefrontal cortex and the medial anterior temporal cortex. We hypothesized that the structural connectivity between these regions may vary as a function of age and of alcohol use, specifically in the cingulum, uncinate, and fornix white matter tracts. Secondly, we hypothesized that age and alcohol use would also associate with structural differences in frontal and medial anterior temporal lobe gray matter and striatal subcortical structures. In a sample of 84 healthy subjects (ages 18-40; 52.38% Female), we found significant effects of current alcohol consumption, current binge drinking, and binge drinking before age 21 on the white matter microstructure of bilateral cingulum and uncinate. We observed no statistically significant effects of alcohol use on the cortical and subcortical regions analyzed. Our findings suggest a stronger association of subclinical binge drinking with the microstructure integrity of the white matter bundles connecting frontal and temporal lobes than with the structural properties of the cortical and subcortical regions themselves.

description: We report the discovery of a large, sudden, and persistent increase in the spin-down rate of B0540-69, a young pulsar in the Large Magellanic Cloud, using observations from the Swift and RXTE satellites. The relative increase in the spin-down rate of 36% is unprecedented for B0540-69. No accompanying change in the spin rate is seen, and no change is seen in the pulsed X-ray emission from B0540-69 following the change in the spin-down rate. Such large relative changes in the spin-down rate are seen in the recently discovered class of 'intermittent pulsars', and we compare the properties of B0540-69 to such pulsars. We consider possible changes in the magnetosphere of the pulsar that could cause such a large change in the spin-down rate.

description: Societal awareness of, and engagement with, environmental problems is a critical prerequisite for effective conservation programs. Research has revealed a strong general pattern whereby public attention received by cultural products diminishes over time. If transposed to conservation, this transience of societal attention is likely to be of major importance because it can limit motivation to support conservation efforts. We address the concept of attention transience applied to conservation, discuss its major drivers and mechanisms, and provide a short overview of conservation issues for which this phenomenon is expected to be particularly relevant. Attention transience leaves a brief window of opportunity for conservationists to focus public awareness and to mobilize necessary support. In this context, it is critical to maximize the conservation benefits generated during these short bursts of attention, especially through tailored conservation marketing campaigns with targeted message framing and regular efforts to refocus attention on key issues.

Estimation of 2p2h effect on Gamow-Teller transition with Second Tamm-Dancoff-Approximation

description: Two-particle two-hole (2p2h) effect on the Gamow-Teller (GT) transition for neutron-rich nuclei is studied by the second Tamm-Dancoff approximation (STDA) with the Skyrme interaction. Unstable $^{24}$O and $^{34}$Si, and stable $^{48}$Ca nuclei are chosen to study the quenching and fragmentation of the GT strengths. Correlation of the 2p2h configurations causes $20$\% quenching and downward shift of GT giant resonances (GTGRs). The residual interaction changing relative angular momentum, appeared in the tensor force part, gives a meaningful effect to the GT strength distributions. In this work, $17$ to $26$ \% of the total GT strengths are brought to high energy region above GTGRs. In particular, the tensor force brings strengths to high energy more than $50$ MeV. STDA calculation within a small model space for 2p2h configuration is also performed and experimental data of $^{48}$Ca is reproduced reasonably.

description: We approach the problem of integration for rough integrands and integrators, typically representing trajectories of stochastic processes possessing only some Hölder regularity of possibly low order, in the framework of para-control calculus. For this purpose, we first decompose integrand and integrator into Paley–Littlewood packages along the Haar–Schauder system. By careful estimation of the components of products of packages of the integrand and derivatives of the integrator we obtain a characterization of Young’s integral. For the most interesting case of functions with Hölder regularities that sum up to an order below 1 we have to employ the concept of para-control of integrand and integrator with respect to a reference function for which a version of antisymmetric Lévy area is known to exist. This way we obtain an interpretation of the rough path integral. Lévy areas being known for most frequently used stochastic processes such as (fractional) Brownian motion, this integral serves as a basis for pathwise stochastic calculus, as the integral in classical rough path analysis.

description: We investigate the relationship between two kinds of ground-state local convertibility and quantum phase transitions in XY model. The local operations and classical communications (LOCC) convertibility is examined by the majorization relations and the entanglement-assisted local operations and classical communications (E- LOCC) via Renyi entropy interception. In the phase diagram of XY model, LOCC convertibility and ELOCC convertibility of ground-states are presented and compared. It is shown that different phases in the phase dia- gram of XY model can have different LOCC or ELOCC convertibility, which can be used to detect the quantum phase transition. This study will enlighten extensive studies of quantum phase transitions from the perspective of local convertibility, e.g., finite-temperature phase transitions and other quantum many-body models.

description: Scholars have called to study how social cohesion is discursively negotiated and produced in communication behavior. However, empirical evidence remains scarce. In this study, we investigate to what extent and how civil society organizations (CSOs), part of the backbone of social integration in modern democracies, make references to social cohesion in their public self-portrayals. We develop a standardized measure for content analyzing the manifestation of social cohesion along three theoretical dimensions: social relations, connectedness, and orientation towards the common good. We apply our innovative content measure to the external communication of an original sample of nearly 800 CSOs in Germany, using their websites. Subsequently, we use data from an accompanying organizational survey of these institutions to investigate whether and how certain organizational features help explain variance in social cohesion rhetoric. Findings suggest that CSOs’ external communications employ themes from all key dimensions of social cohesion, revealing a fair amount of variation on all three subdimensions and a summary index of the overall strength social cohesion rhetoric. These different emphases are contingent upon various organizational characteristics, namely the spheres in which CSOs are primarily active, their locations, and their target groups. Whereas culturally and media-oriented organizations as well as sports clubs are largely reluctant to make references to social cohesion, politically active CSOs and those addressing socially disadvantaged communities tend to push more in this direction. The latter tend to operate in more professionalized structures, indicating that referencing social cohesion legitimizes these groups’ political and social purposes in the public sphere.

description: The fast evolution of drone technology as well as the ubiquitous adoption from private and commercial users lead to the necessity to introduce new regulations covering the operations of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) in European Member states. The regulations implemented rules for multiple scenarios of normal and complex UAS operations as well as the collection of registration data from remote pilots and Operators. This research project tried for the first time to determine the status quo of the adoption of the novel EASA regulations of drones within the European members states. Data from National Aviation Authorities has been collected, accumulated, and analyzed towards qualitative and quantitative features.

Bedrock determines the elevational patterns of soil phosphorus pools in a subtropical karst forest.xlsx
Creators: name: Zeng, Lian

Subjects: Terrestrial ecology

description: Soil phosphorus (P) is an important nutrient limiting the plant productivity. The elevational pattern of soil P concentration is widely used to indicate how it responds to the climatic gradient. However, the bedrock variation in an elevational transect is usually neglected, which could have caused the inconsistent elevational patterns of soil P concentration in previous studies. In present study, we examined elevational patterns of various soil P pools (i.e., labile inorganic P (Pi) and organic P (Po), moderately labile Pi and Po, primary mineral P, and occluded P) in top-soils in an elevational transect with alternating bedrock types (i.e., clasolite and limestone) in a subtropical karst forest.
