TROPHIC STRUCTURE OF A SHELF POLYCHAETE TAXOCOENOSIS IN SOUTHERN BRAZIL
Creators: name: Depaiva, P. C.
Publisher: name: Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR)
Year: 1994

description: The distribution patterns of polychaete trophic groups were examined throughout a seasonal cycle of the continental shelf of Sao Paulo State in southern Brazil. Detritivores (subsurface deposit-feeders, surface deposit-feeders and suspension feeders) were the most important trophic group in the whole area. Subsurface deposit-feeders did not show any temporal variability. Surface deposit-feeders and suspension-feeders underwent pronounced shifts in importance, with higher values in the shallow stations during summer. This variability was probably due to storm-induced disturbances. Other processes such as predation and anthropic action seemed to be spread along the inner shelf. Distribution of trophic groups was related to temperature, CaCO3 content and environmental stability (this being reflected on depth variability). A trophic group importance index is proposed to solve partially problems regarding trophic structure analysis.

Vector Riemann-Hilbert problem with almost periodic and meromorphic coefficients and applications

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: The vector Riemann-Hilbert problem is analyzed when the entries of its matrix coefficient are meromorphic and almost periodic functions. Three cases for the meromorphic functions, when they have (i) a finite number of poles and zeros (rational functions), (ii) periodic poles and zeros, and (iii) an infinite number of non periodic zeros and poles, are considered. The first case is illustrated by the heat equation for a composite rod with a finite number of discontinuities and a system of convolution equations; both problems are solved explicitly. In the second case, a Wiener-Hopf factorization is found in terms of the hypergeometric functions, and the exact solution of a mixed boundary value problem for the Laplace equation in wedge is derived. In the last case, the Riemann-Hilbert problem reduces to an infinite system of linear algebraic equations with the exponential rate of convergence. As an example, the Neumann boundary value problem for the Helmholtz equation in a strip with a slit is analyzed.

description: We review the geometrical formulation of Quantum Mechanics to identify, according to Klein's programme, the corresponding group of transformations. For closed systems, it is the unitary group. For open quantum systems, the semigroup of Kraus maps contains, as a maximal subgroup, the general linear group. The same group emerges as the exponentiation of the $C^{*}$--algebra associated with the quantum system, when thought of as a Lie algebra. Thus, open quantum systems seem to identify the general linear group as associated with quantum mechanics and moreover suggest to extend the Klein programme also to groupoids. The usual unitary group emerges as a maximal compact subgroup of the general linear group.

description: Use of antioxidants to mitigate oxidative stress during ocular inflammatory diseases has shown therapeutic potential. This work examines a nanoscale therapeutic modality for the eye on the base of antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), termed “nanozyme.” The nanozyme is produced by electrostatic coupling of the SOD1 with a cationic block copolymer, poly(L-lysine)-poly(ethyleneglycol), followed by covalent cross-linking of the complexes with 3,3′-dithiobis(sulfosuccinimidylpropionate) sodium salt. The ability of SOD1 nanozyme as well as the native SOD1 to reduce inflammatory processes in the eye was examined in vivo in rabbits with immunogenic uveitis. Results suggested that topical instillations of both enzyme forms demonstrated anti-inflammatory activity; however, the nanozyme was much more effective compared to the free enzyme in decreasing uveitis manifestations. In particular, we noted statistically significant differences in such inflammatory signs in the eye as the intensities of corneal and iris edema, hyperemia of conjunctiva, lens opacity, fibrin clots, and the protein content in aqueous humor. Clinical findings were confirmed by histological data. Thus, SOD1-containing nanozyme is potentially useful therapeutic agent for the treatment of ocular inflammatory disorders.

description: Prenatal exposure to high levels of mercury, radiation, and inflammation have been associated with adverse reproductive outcomes such as increases in preterm delivery, low birthweight, and delayed neurodevelopment. Few data are available to evaluate the potential effects of prenatal low-level exposure to these factors as might occur during dental care. We evaluated maternal dental history prior to and during pregnancy in relation to birth outcomes and early communicative development among offspring in a large cohort (n=7375) of British children born in 1991–1992. Dental history was assessed by questionnaire. The child’s communicative development was assessed using the MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory at 15 months of age. Total mercury was measured in umbilical cord tissue for a subset of the children. Overall, dental care, including amalgam fillings, was not associated with birth outcomes or language development. Having x-rays taken during pregnancy was not associated with birthweight measured continuously (β=14.7, p=0.4), but was associated with slightly increased odds of having a term, low birthweight baby (OR 1.9, 95%CI 1.0–3.4). More detailed evaluation of the potential adverse effects of elective dental treatment during pregnancy, particularly dental x-rays, may be warranted.

description: Total fatty acids (TFA) and different fatty acids contents of the gonads, liver and muscles in male and female
 Diplodus annularis were studied. The gonadosomatic (GSI) and hepatosomatic index (HIS) present a maximum value in
 female specimens, respectively 8.48 ± 0.80 and 1.86 ± 0.11. Our results show that TFA are accumulated in female liver (5.41
 ± 0.66 mg.g-1 WM). It was noted that among all the samples studied for saturated (SFA) and monounsaturated fatty acids
 (MUFA) in male and female samples, palmitic acid C16:0 (18.00 ± 0.57 - 26.48 ± 0.99%TFA) and oleic acid C18:1 (11.79
 ± 0.98 - 22.55 ± 0.37%TFA) were the predominant saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids respectively. All differences
 between male and female are statistically significant (p < 0.05) except these between the oleic acid (C18:1) values in gonads.
 Other more, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) C22:6 (4.24 ± 0.72 -27.38 ± 2.97%) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) C20:5 (4.55
 ± 0.88 - 5.73 ± 0.68%) are the major PUFA. All differences between DHA values in male and female are statistically
 significant (p < 0.05). However, the EPA reveals a significant difference only between values obtained in male and female
 gonads. Our results suggest higher ω3 PUFA/ω6 PUFA and DHA/EPA ratios in male liver.

description: A physical theory is called non-local when observers can produce instantaneous effects over distant systems. Non-local theories rely on two fundamental effects: local uncertainty relations and steering of physical states at a distance. In quantum mechanics, the former one dominates the other in a well-known class of non-local games known as XOR games. In particular, optimal quantum strategies for XOR games are completely determined by the uncertainty principle alone. This breakthrough result has yielded the fundamental open question whether optimal quantum strategies are always restricted by local uncertainty principles, with entanglement-based steering playing no role. In this work, we provide a negative answer to the question, showing that both steering and uncertainty relations play a fundamental role in determining optimal quantum strategies for non-local games. Our theoretical findings are supported by an experimental implementation with entangled photons.

description: Geographic variations of Trachurus trachurus based on mitochondrial 16S rDNA gene from 8 locations,
 including the Black, Marmara, Aegean and north-eastern Mediterranean Seas, were investigated. Restriction fragment
 length polymorphism (RFLP) analyses revealed 14 different composite haplotypes for 307 individuals and diagnostic
 restriction sites for discriminating among populations. The distribution of haplotypic groups mostly followed the
 geographic origin of populations. Average haplotype diversity within populations was high (0.7311), and nucleotide
 diversity was low (0.0071). Mean nucleotide divergence among samples of T. trachurus was 0.00271. The highest value of
 pairwise inter-group nucleotide divergence was detected between the West and East Black Sea samples (0.01119), and the
 lowest (-0.00018) between the two North-eastern Mediterranean samples. In Monte Carlo pairwise comparisons of haplo-
 type frequencies genetically different populations were detected. The distribution of haplotypes and the pairwise estimate
 of nucleotide divergence exposed high differentiation of the Black Sea (BS2) population with respect to the others. Mantel's
 test showed that the genetic distances between these populations were not associated with their geographical distances (r =
 0.326; P > 0.05).

description: Intertidal samples were collected from sediments within a seagrass bed (Zostera marina) and an adjacent unvegetated area in the Eo estuary (NW Spain) during one year. The vegetated site was characterized by the highest densities, species richness and biomass of the macrofauna from that found at bare substrate. Sediments were coarser in the bare sand than in the grassbed. Trophic structure is also influenced by the eelgrass : deposit-feeders showed their highest abundance in the seagrass bed whilst carnivores and suspension-feeders were more abundant in the unvegetated area. Ordination analysis and correlations between physico-chemical parameters and samples reveal that organic matter, fine sands, silt and clay contents, are the discriminant factors in species spatial distribution. Species temporal fluctuation as a function of seasonality has be found as well.

description: Given a time function $τ$ on a spacetime $M$, we define a `null distance function', $\hat{d}_τ$, built from and closely related to the causal structure of $M$. In basic models with timelike $\nabla τ$, we show that 1) $\hat{d}_τ$ is a definite distance function, which induces the manifold topology, 2) the causal structure of $M$ is completely encoded in $\hat{d}_τ$ and $τ$. In general, $\hat{d}_τ$ is a conformally invariant pseudometric, which may be indefinite. We give an `anti-Lipschitz' condition on $τ$, which ensures that $\hat{d}_τ$ is definite, and show this condition to be satisfied whenever $τ$ has gradient vectors $\nabla τ$ almost everywhere, with $\nabla τ$ locally `bounded away from the light cones'. As a consequence, we show that the cosmological time function of [1] is anti-Lipschitz when `regular', and hence induces a definite null distance function. This provides what may be interpreted as a canonical metric space structure on spacetimes which emanate from a common initial singularity, e.g. a `big bang'.

description: Supraglacial deposits are known for their influence on glacier ablation. The magnitude of this influence depends on the thickness and the type of the deposited material. The effects of thin layers of atmospheric black carbon and of thick moraine debris have been intensively studied. Studies related to regional-scale deposits of volcanic tephra with thicknesses varying between millimetres and metres and thus over several orders of magnitude are scarce. We present results of a field experiment in which we investigated the influence of supraglacial deposits of tephra from Grímsvötn volcano on bare-ice ablation at Svínafelsjökull, Iceland. We observed that the effective thickness at which ablation is maximized ranges from 1.0 to 2.0 mm. At ∼10 mm a critical thickness is reached where sub-tephra ablation equals bare-ice ablation. We calibrated two empirical ablation models and a semi-physics-based ablation model that all account for varying tephra-layer thicknesses. A comparison of the three models indicates that for tephra deposits in the lower-millimetre scale the temperature/radiation-index model performs best, but that a semi-physics-based approach could be expected to yield superior results for tephra deposits of the order of decimetres.
Electric field-induced magnetization switching in interface-coupled multiferroic heterostructures: A highly-dense, non-volatile, and ultra-low-energy computing paradigm

description: Electric-field induced magnetization switching in multiferroic magnetoelectric devices is promising for beyond Moore's law computing. We show here that interface-coupled multiferroic heterostructures, i.e., a ferroelectric layer coupled with a ferromagnetic layer, are particularly suitable for highly-dense, non-volatile, and ultra-low-energy computing. By solving stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation of magnetization dynamics in the presence of room-temperature thermal fluctuations, we demonstrate that error-resilient switching of magnetization is possible in sub-nanosecond delay while expending a minuscule amount of energy of $\sim$1 attojoule. Such devices can be operated by drawing energy from the environment without the need for an external battery.

description: Persistent interest lies in gender inequality, especially with regard to the favouring of sons over daughters. Economists are concerned with how privilege is transmitted across generations, and anthropologists have long studied sex-biased inheritance norms. There has, however, been no focused cross-cultural investigation of how parent–offspring correlations in wealth vary by offspring sex. We estimate these correlations for 38 wealth measures, including somatic and relational wealth, from 15 populations ranging from hunter–gatherers to small-scale farmers. Although small sample sizes limit our statistical power, we find no evidence of ubiquitous male bias, at least as inferred from comparing parent–son and parent–daughter correlations. Rather we find wide variation in signatures of sex bias, with evidence of both son and daughter-biased transmission. Further, we introduce a model that helps pinpoint the conditions under which simple mid-point parent–offspring wealth correlations can reveal information about sex-biased parental investment. Our findings are relevant to the study of female-biased kinship by revealing just how little normative descriptors of kinship systems, such as patrilineal inheritance, capture intergenerational correlations in wealth, and how variable parent–son and parent–daughter correlations can be.This article is part of the theme issue ‘The evolution of female-biased kinship in humans and other mammals'.

SEASONAL REPRODUCTIVE ACTIVITIES OF DIFFERENT SIZE CLASSES OF A POPULATION OF GREEN SHORE CRABS, CARCINUS-MAENAS (LINNAEUS, 1758) IN THE SOUTHERN AREA OF THE NORTH-SEA
Creators: name: Dacoz, C. D.

description: In the Ostend population (Belgium, Southern North Sea) of green shore crabs Carcinus maenas, the animals mate immediately after the moult of the female, from April to November but mainly from June to October. Ovigerous females are found from December to August but they become scarce from July onwards. The size of the mating females gradually decreases from June to October. That is due to two facts. Firstly, most females that mate in June are old specimens that have bred at least once ; the proportion of these females diminishes in the next months to leave place to young females that have never bred. Secondly, the size of the females mating for the first time decreases from July to October. Part of the small females that have already moulted and mated at the beginning of summer moult and mate for a second time from August onwards after a short sterile intermoult. The average carapace breadth of the females breeding in winter is large. The proportion of small ovigerous females increases in May and decreases afterwards. Part of females spawning in winter have again ripe ovaries in April-June. These females are mainly the large ones. Therefore it is suggested that large females can breed twice or three times each year in the same intermoult (in winter, in spring and sometimes at begin of summer) and that the small females would breed usually only once, in spring. The average size of the mating males remains nearly constant through the season although there is a slight increase of the small males proportion in the couples after July.

description: We aimed to determine the relationship of douching prior to pregnancy and bacterial vaginosis (BV) during pregnancy on preterm birth, addressing individual and joint effects. We used a prospective cohort study and assessed vaginal microflora using gram stains and Nugent’s criteria. Douching behaviour was based on self-report about the 12 months prior to pregnancy. Preterm births were categorised as spontaneous or medically indicated. A total of 2561 women provided vaginal specimens and 1492 provided self-reports on douching behaviour.

description: Detailed knowledge about equilibration processes is of interest for various fields of physics, including heavy ion collision experiments and quantum quenched condensed matter systems. We study the approach to equilibrium at late times within two types of strongly coupled thermal systems in 3+1 dimensions: systems in the presence of (i) a non-zero charge density, or (ii) a magnetic field at vanishing charge density. Utilizing the gauge/gravity correspondence, we map the aforementioned problem to the computation of quasinormal frequencies around two particular classes of black branes within the Einstein-Maxwell theory. We compute (i) the tensor and vector quasinormal modes of Reissner-Nordström black branes and (ii) the scalar, as well as tensor quasinormal modes of magnetic black branes. Some of these quasinormal modes correspond to the late-time relaxation of the above systems after starting with initial pressure anisotropy. We provide benchmarks which need to be matched at late-times by all holographic thermalization codes with the appropriate symmetries.

description: We propose the Gaussian quadrature inference (GQI) method for multicarrier continuous-variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD). A multicarrier CVQKD protocol utilizes Gaussian subcarrier quantum continuous variables (CV) for information transmission. The GQI framework provides a minimal error estimate of the quadratures of the CV quantum states from the discrete, measured noisy subcarrier variables. GQI utilizes the fundamentals of regularization theory and statistical information processing. We characterize GQI for multicarrier CVQKD, and define a method for the statistical modeling and processing of noisy Gaussian subcarrier quadratures. We demonstrate the results through the adaptive multicarrier quadrature division (AMQD) scheme. We define direct GQI (DGQI), and prove that it achieves a theoretical minimal magnitude error. We introduce the terms statistical secret key rate and statistical private classical information, which quantities are derived purely by the statistical functions of GQI. We prove the secret key rate formulas for a multiple access multicarrier CVQKD via the AMQD-MQA (multiuser quadrature allocation) scheme. The GQI and DGQI frameworks can be established in an arbitrary CVQKD protocol and measurement setting, and are implementable by standard low-complexity statistical functions, which is particularly convenient for an experimental CVQKD scenario.

description: Vitamin supplements have been proposed for children with Down syndrome (DS) with claims of improving cognitive abilities, or immune or thyroid function. Several studies have shown decreased levels of zinc in this population. Because children with DS have a 50-fold increased risk of developing acute leukemia during the first 5 years of life, we explored the relation between child vitamin and herbal supplement use and the risk for leukemia in a case-control study. During the period 1997–2002, we enrolled 158 children with DS aged 0–18 years that were diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (n=97) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (n=61) at participating COG institutions. We enrolled 173 DS children without leukemia (controls), selected from the cases’ primary care clinic and frequency matched on age. Data were collected via telephone interviews with mothers of the index child regarding use of multivitamins, zinc, vitamin C, iron, and herbal supplements, including age at first use, frequency and duration. Among controls, 57% reported regular multivitamin use (≥ 3 times/week for ≥ 3 months) compared with 48% of ALL cases and 61% of AML cases. We found no evidence of an association between child’s regular multivitamin use and ALL or AML (adjusted odds ratios (ORs)=0.94 [95% confidence interval 0.52, 1.70] and 1.90 [0.73, 4.91], respectively. There was a suggestion of an increased risk for AML associated with regular multivitamin use during the first year of life or for an extended duration (ORs = 2.38 [0.94, 5.76] and 2.59 [1.02, 6.59], respectively). Despite being the largest study of DS-leukemia, our sample size was small, resulting in imprecise effect estimates. Future research should include larger sample sizes as well as a full assessment of diet including vitamin supplementation to adequately examine the relation between nutritional status and childhood leukemia.

description: The motivation for this paper is to justify a remark of Thurston that the algebraic degree of stretch factors of pseudo-Anosov maps on a surface $S$ can be as high as the dimension of the Teichmüller space of $S$. In addition to proving this, we completely determine the set of possible algebraic degrees of pseudo-Anosov stretch factors on almost all finite type surfaces. As a corollary, we find the possible degrees of the number fields that arise as trace fields of Veech groups of flat surfaces homeomorphic to closed orientable surfaces. Our construction also gives an algorithm for finding a pseudo-Anosov map on a given surface whose stretch factor has a prescribed degree. One ingredient of the proofs is a novel asymptotic irreducibility criterion for polynomials.

description: Persistent interest lies in gender inequality, especially with regard to the favouring of sons over daughters. Economists are concerned with how privilege is transmitted across generations, and anthropologists have long studied sex-biased inheritance norms. There has, however, been no focused cross-cultural investigation of how parent–offspring correlations in wealth vary by offspring sex. We estimate these correlations for 38 wealth measures, including somatic and relational wealth, from 15 populations ranging from hunter–gatherers to small-scale farmers. Although small sample sizes limit our statistical power, we find no evidence of ubiquitous male bias, at least as inferred from comparing parent–son and parent–daughter correlations. Rather we find wide variation in signatures of sex bias, with evidence of both son and daughter-biased transmission. Further, we introduce a model that helps pinpoint the conditions under which simple mid-point parent–offspring wealth correlations can reveal information about sex-biased parental investment. Our findings are relevant to the study of female-biased kinship by revealing just how little normative descriptors of kinship systems, such as patrilineal inheritance, capture intergenerational correlations in wealth, and how variable parent–son and parent–daughter correlations can be.This article is part of the theme issue ‘The evolution of female-biased kinship in humans and other mammals'.

description: Residential context has received increased attention as a possible contributing factor to race/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in birth outcomes in the United States. Utilizing vital statistics birth record data, this study examined the association between neighbourhood deprivation and the risk of a term small-for-gestational-age (SGA) birth among non-Hispanic whites and non-Hispanic blacks in eight geographic areas: Baltimore City, Baltimore County, Montgomery County and Prince Georges County in Maryland, 16 pooled cities in Michigan, Durham County and Wake County in North Carolina, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Multilevel random intercept logistic regression models were employed and statistical tests were performed to examine if the association between neighbourhood deprivation and SGA varied by race/ethnicity and study site. The risk of term SGA was higher among non-Hispanic blacks (range: 10.8%–17.5%) than non-Hispanic whites (range: 5.1%–9.2%) in all areas and it was higher in cities than in suburban locations. In all areas, non-Hispanic blacks lived in more deprived neighbourhoods than non-Hispanic whites. However, the adjusted associations between neighbourhood deprivation and term SGA did not vary significantly by race/ethnicity or study site. The summary fully-adjusted pooled odds ratios, indicating the effect of one standard deviation increase in the deprivation score, were 1.15 [95% CI: 1.08–1.22] for non-Hispanic whites and 1.09 [95% CI: 1.05–1.14] for non-Hispanic blacks. Thus, neighbourhood deprivation was weakly associated with term SGA among both non-Hispanic whites and non-Hispanic blacks.
