description: We derive covariant expressions for the one loop vacuum polarization induced by a charged scalar on de Sitter background. Two forms are employed: one in which two covariant derivatives act on de Sitter invariant basis tensors multiplied by scalar structure functions, and the other in which four covariant derivatives act on a single basis tensor times a structure function. The second representation permits the correction to dynamical photons to be expressed as a surface integral, which raises the important question of what sorts of effects can be absorbed into corrections of the initial state. Results are obtained for charged, minimally coupled scalars which are either massless or else light. The former show de Sitter breaking whereas the latter are de Sitter invariant. However, the de Sitter invariant formulation does not seem useful, even when it is possible. Our work has important implications for representations of the graviton self-energy on de Sitter.

description: Aquatic ecosystems –from marine and coastal to freshwater– are rich in biodiversity and home to a diverse array of species and habitats, providing numerous economic and societal benefits to the European population. Many of these valuable ecosystems are at risk of being irreversibly damaged by human activities and pressures, including pollution, contamination, hydromorphological alterations, invasive species, overfishing and climate change. These pressures threaten the sustainability of these ecosystems, their provision of ecosystem services and ultimately human well-being. AQUACROSS (Knowledge, Assessment, and Management for AQUAtic Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services aCROSS EU policies – http://aquacross.eu) seeks to advance the application of ecosystem-based management for aquatic ecosystems in an effort to support the timely achievement of the EU 2020 Biodiversity Strategy and other international conservation targets. In this regard, AQUACROSS aims to develop and test an assessment framework through a series of cases studies which considers the full array of interactions within aquatic ecosystems, including human activities. Following the Horizon 2020 Open Research Data Pilot, AQUACROSS addresses the challenge of bringing together newly generated as well as existing data used in the framework of the case studies, while at the same time supporting the project partners in terms of data integration and harmonisation. Through a lightweight CKAN-based information platform, we aim on one hand to support project partners in terms of discovery and data access (in interoperable formats), while on the other hand we offer operational support to open up raw and processed data for use in other contexts and disseminating these data and results. The latter is facilitated by the capabilities of the CKAN software which includes on-the-fly analysis and visualisation tools and enables easy data access through external software and tools such as R, QGis and Phyton. During this presentation we will report on the main lessons learned during this data integration exercise and focus on selected case study examples.

description: Transcription factor binding sites vary in their specificity, both within and between species. Binding specificity has a strong impact on the evolution of gene expression, because it determines how easily regulatory interactions are gained and lost. Nevertheless, we have a relatively poor understanding of what evolutionary forces determine the specificity of binding sites. Here we address this question by studying regulatory modules composed of multiple binding sites. Using a population-genetic model, we show that more complex regulatory modules, composed of a greater number of binding sites, must employ binding sites that are individually less specific, compared to less complex regulatory modules. This effect is extremely general, and it hold regardless of the regulatory logic of a module. We attribute this phenomenon to the inability of stabilising selection to maintain highly specific sites in large regulatory modules. Our analysis helps to explain broad empirical trends in the yeast regulatory network: those genes with a greater number of transcriptional regulators feature by less specific binding sites, and there is less variance in their specificity, compared to genes with fewer regulators. Likewise, our results also help to explain the well-known trend towards lower specificity in the transcription factor binding sites of higher eukaryotes, which perform complex regulatory tasks, compared to prokaryotes.

description: Prior to analysing data, researchers today need to perform the ‘janitorial’ step of the data life cycle. This step involves cleaning, harmonizing, or integrating data and typically relies on loading data from one or multiple sources into a computational environment and one of its native data structures. Loading data consumes only a small fraction of the estimated 80% of time consumed by the ‘janitorial’ step overall in data analysis. Yet, it is baffling how much effort it can take to load data into a native data structure of a computational environment. What could arguably be as straightforward as providing a DOI to a specialized function that returns the corresponding data (and metadata) represented in a data structure native to the computational environment in reality generally amounts to resolving the DOI using a browser, navigating a landing page to identify data and metadata, download data to a file, and ultimately load the data from the file using one of several specialized functions that read data in one of many file formats. The matter is further complicated by Web APIs that - while easing access and download - generally require prior knowledge for how to retrieve data. Such knowledge needs to be encoded in programming code using the computational environment of choice. Surely the required pieces of technology exist to directly access data given a DOI and negotiate content between data provider and consumer so that the computational environment can automatically load data into a native data structure. Yet we still have some way to go before the subtask of loading data into a computational environment is truly easy. Using PANGAEA as a data publisher and a couple of other data sources, and Jupyter as a computational environment, in this talk we highlight the problem and delineate a solution. Specifically, we will demonstrate how, given a DOI name, PANGAEA data can be automatically loaded into a Python Data Analysis Library (pandas) DataFrame with a mere call of a specialized function. We will also discuss some of the challenges and implications of performing such operation on Linked Data. While the prototype does not do justice to the complexity of generalizing the implementation over heterogeneous data sources and data types, we argue the talk contributes to improving how a minor but necessary subtask of the data life cycle may be executed in computational environments, and thus contribute to seamless integration of data and analysis.

description: Reef fish in several islands of the Galapagos are affected via habitat deterioration, fisheries and water quality changes. Sound data acquisition and processing techniques to quantify the impact of anthropogenic pressures are therefore of paramount importance. In this study we developed an indicator system to assess the quality of fish communities. The evaluation is based on both taxonomic and trait-based approaches and allowed us to study ecosystem functioning and the role of certain species and groups in their habitats. The data were collected during a sampling campaign in 2017, during which reef fish were monitored via video recording of diver transects.

description: Many recent calculations have been performed to study a Co atom adsorbed on graphene, with significantly varying results on the nature of the bonding. We use auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) and a size-correction embedding scheme to accurately calculate the binding energy of Co on graphene. We find that as a function of the distance h between the Co atom and the six-fold hollow site, there are three distinct ground states corresponding to three electronic configurations of the Co atom. Two of these states provide binding and exhibit a double-well feature with nearly equal binding energy of 0.4 eV at h = 1.51 and h = 1.65 angstroms, corresponding to low-spin $^2$Co (3d9 4s0) and high-spin $^4$Co (3d8 4s1), respectively.

description: The purpose of this research paper is to provide infallible proof of a mathematical, physics based, experimental. and anecdotal nature to support the claim that the framework for “Scientific Universal Theory” laid out in this paper represents a functional form of the long sought after Scientific “Theory of Everything”. This paper will emphasize a focus on feasible, non-specious data that is self-aware of the potential for mistakenly identifying a Grand unified scientific framework, and a myriad of comprehensively sufficient logical proofs one may need to assess the validity of this groundbreaking discovery are provided in depth. This grand endeavor seeks to merge the two fundamental pillars of modern physics: quantum mechanics, which governs the behavior of particles at the smallest scales, and general relativity, which describes the nature of gravity and the structure of the cosmos. And in addition to this, which also manages to account for virtually every known branch, field and theorem of science within a singular comprehensive framework which adheres to current accepted math and physics (building upon those things exponentially). This paper aims to explore the profound implications of this theory for society and the world at large, illuminating the revolutionary advances it promises to bring. This research paper/document will be competent, thorough, and aims to provide absolute proof of the functionality of the discovery of this framework, theory and theorem via mathematics calculations, physics data, research data, and examples both anecdotal and experimental. This will include possible demonstrated utilizations of the framework, both from current use of this framework within the scientific community, and feasible indicated uses deduced via comprehensive research. This document aims to create an entourage effect of undeniable evidence to support the functionality of the mathematical and physical principles and discoveries laid out within it.

description: Small-angle neutron scattering has been employed to study the influence of applied electric (E-) fields on the skyrmion lattice in the chiral lattice magnetoelectric Cu2OSeO3. In an experimental geometry with the E-field parallel to the [111] axis, and the magnetic field parallel to the [1-10] axis, we demonstrate that the effect of applying an E-field is to controllably rotate the skyrmion lattice around the magnetic field axis. Our results are an important first demonstration for a microscopic coupling between applied E-fields and the skyrmions in an insulator, and show that the general emergent properties of skyrmions may be tailored according to the properties of the host system.

description: Human activities (e.g. agriculture and industry) have been increasing within the river basins. These agricultural and industrial impacts affect the water quality in the basin and the related ecosystem and ecosystem services. We aim to identify the link between water management options and ecosystem services, and how the ecosystem services change when certain management actions are applied. Thus, a case study in the Guayas River basin (Ecuador) is presented. A trade-off tool was developed to assess ecosystem services. A model was developed with both biophysical and management variables as input to calculate the effect on multiple ecosystem services (food production, fresh water availability and recreational value). With these three ecosystem services, a trade-off tool was constructed with the use of Bayesian Belief Networks (BBNs). Based on the model outcome, it can be stated that in general, the changes in management leading to an increase in food production, made the fresh water availability and recreational value go down. With further research on the influences of different variables on ecosystem functions and services, this BBN model can become a valuable trade-off tool to be implemented in both water and environmental management and decision making.

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Neurons and Cognition (q-bio.NC)

description: Neurons in the nervous system convey information to higher brain regions by the generation of spike trains. An important question in the field of computational neuroscience is how these sensory neurons encode environmental information in a way which may be simply analyzed by subsequent systems. Many aspects of the form and function of the nervous system have been understood using the concepts of optimal population coding. Most studies, however, have neglected the aspect of temporal coding. Here we address this shortcoming through a filtering theory of inhomogeneous Poisson processes. We derive exact relations for the minimal mean squared error of the optimal Bayesian filter and by optimizing the encoder, obtain optimal codes for populations of neurons. We also show that a class of non-Markovian, smooth stimuli are amenable to the same treatment, and provide results for the filtering and prediction error which hold for a general class of stochastic processes. This sets a sound mathematical framework for a population coding theory that takes temporal aspects into account. It also formalizes a number of studies which discussed temporal aspects of coding using time-window paradigms, by stating them in terms of correlation times and firing rates. We propose that this kind of analysis allows for a systematic study of temporal coding and will bring further insights into the nature of the neural code.

description: In this paper, we prove that the maximal order of a semiregular element in the automorphism group of a cubic vertex-transitive graph X does not tend to infinity as the number of vertices of X tends to infinity. This gives a solution (in the negative) to a conjecture of Peter Cameron, John Sheehan and the author. However, with an application of the positive solution of the restricted Burnside problem, we show that this conjecture holds true when X is either a Cayley graph or an arc-transitive graph.

description: We study C/O white dwarfs with masses of 1.0 to 1.4 Msun accreting solar-composition material at very high accretion rates. We address the secular changes in the WDs, and in particular, the question whether accretion and the thermonuclear runaways result is net accretion or erosion. The present calculation is unique in that it follows a large number of cycles, thus revealing the secular evolution of the WD system. We find that counter to previous studies, accretion does not give rise to steady state burning. Instead, it produces cyclic thermonuclear runaways of two types. During most of the evolution, many small cycles of hydrogen ignition and burning build a helium layer over the surface of the white dwarf. This He layer gradually thickens and progressively becomes more degenerate. Once a sufficient amount of He has accumulated, several very large helium burning flashes take place and expel the accreted envelope, leaving no net mass accumulation. The results imply that such a system will not undergo an accretion induced collapse, nor will it lead to a SN Type Ia, unless a major new physical process is found.

Novel Cultivations: Plants in British Literature of the Global Nineteenth Century by Elizabeth Hope Chang
Creators: name: Collins, Lauryn E.
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: In positioning ‘plants as the transitory location between realism and fantasy within British fiction’ (p. 3), Elizabeth Hope Chang’s insight into the role of plants as subjects in diasporic Victorian ecologies sheds new light on the nineteenth century through a brilliant employment of contemporary ecocriticism. In Novel Cultivations: Plants in British Literature of the Global Nineteenth Century, Chang encourages us to regard plants as active participants in the narratives in which they appear, personifying them as subjects through their role in the creation of the naturalised globality of ‘English nature’ in Victorian Britain (p. 1; p. 10). Incorporating the object-oriented philosophy of Timothy Morton and work on thing theory by Elaine Freedgood, Jonathan Lamb, and John Plotz, Chang deftly examines the colonial realities of the act of cultivation itself through the floral landscapes of various Victorian fictional texts. Arguing that the naturalisation of exotic flora in Britain parallels the colonisation and assimilation of commodities, people, and culture by the British Empire, Chang invites us to view plants in Victorian fiction as ‘living things fostered by human intelligence’ that act as ‘mediators between nature and culture’ and form a ‘constitutive part of the local in the British genre novel’ (pp. 20-21). Often drawing from work by plant historians and making a clear distinction between ‘botany, horticulture, and agriculture,’ Chang effectively draws readers to the crux of her argument: that plants are agents in their own right and acknowledging them as such in Victorian fiction moves the field beyond the Anthropocene. Foregrounding the importance of global trade to the British Victorian literary culture, Chang’s study seeks to offer new understandings of how diasporic plants were treated in an era that was both a site of ‘science and a site of metaphysical speculation’ (p. 181).

P. oceanica has a crucial ecological role all over the basin. In fact, this seagrass is a habitat-forming species that can extend from the surface to 45 m depth, forming meadows. These meadows rank among the most valuable ecosystem in the Mediterranean Sea, in term of the services they provide. However, in areas where alterations of environmental conditions happened, regression of the meadows may occur. Despite it is one of the main targets of conservation actions all over the basin, P. oceanica is declining at alarming rate, especially due to the anthropogenic impacts. Thereby, there is a urgent need to study the effects of environmental factors that could affect its ecological status. We used a Random Forest for developing a Habitat Suitability Model (HSM) for P. oceanica in the Italian seas. The use of HSMs has been especially promoted to support ecosystem assessment and conservation planning, since they allow to better understand both the habitat requirements and the potential distribution of species. Since the spatial distribution of meadows in Italian seas is already known, we used the HSM predictions to evaluate the suitability of the habitat for P. oceanica at large spatial scale and, consequently, we assessed the vulnerability of the meadows. Particularly, our occurrence data included both areas were P. oceanica was known as living and regressed meadows. After the RF training, we validated the model using an independent test set and we evaluated the performance using both ROC curve and K statistic. The results showed that the HSM presented a quite good level of accuracy. Thus, we carried out a spatial analysis of the HSM predictions in relation to the actual ecological status of P. oceanica. The results showed that in areas where living meadows actually occurred, high habitat suitability predictions were significantly more frequent. On the contrary, where regressed meadows were actually observed, predictions indicated low habitat suitability for P. oceanica. This study stressed that modeling can effectively support the assessment of ecosystem status as well as conservation actions.

Energy, Ecocriticism and Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Novel Ecologies, by Barri J. Gold
Creators: name: Barnes, Alicia
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: The global climate crisis we are currently facing has a history older than perhaps first thought. While the majority of us working in eighteenth- and nineteenthcentury studies are well aware of the impact the Industrial Revolution, the turn to the use of fossil fuels, has had, reading the literature produced during this time as a part of the discourse on climate change is a relatively recent development. Barri J. Gold’s Energy, Ecocriticism and Nineteenth-Century Fiction: Novel Ecologies takes a vital step in highlighting the necessity of re-reading fiction in order to understand and re-evaluate our place as humans within an ecosystem in crisis. As she makes clear, ‘neither science nor literature can be disconnected from the larger cultural problems that surround, suffuse, and draw from them. Thus, in a time of both ecological and educational crises, this book also queries the ongoing role in the humanities in addressing problems that seem to call primarily for scientific solutions’ (p. 3). Gold argues that if reading literature is to offer a solution to the ecological crisis, we must think of energy, that which underpins said crisis, ‘as a concept, a form or structure, a way of thinking about the world’ (p. 15, original emphasis). In doing so, she demonstrates how working in the humanities has the potential to destabilise the cultural myths that contribute to and sustain our climate crisis.

Search for Diffuse X-rays from the Bow Shock Region of Runaway Star BD+43$^\circ$3654 with Suzaku

description: The bow shocks of runaway stars with strong stellar winds of over 2000 km s$^{-1}$ can serve as particle acceleration sites. The conversion from stellar wind luminosity into particle acceleration power has an efficiency of the same order of magnitude as those in supernova remnants, based on the radio emission from the bow shock region of runaway star BD+43$^\circ$3654 \citep{Benaglia10}.If this object exhibits typical characteristics, then runaway star systems can contribute a non-negligible fraction of Galactic cosmic-ray electrons. To constrain the maximum energy of accelerated particles from measurements of possible non-thermal emissions in the X-ray band, Suzaku observed BD+43$^\circ$3654 in April 2011 with an exposure of 99 ks. Because the onboard instruments have a stable and low background level, Suzaku detected a possible enhancement over the background of $7.6\pm 3.4$ cnt arcmin$^{-2}$ at the bow shock region, where the error represents the 3 sigma statistics only. However, the excess is not significant within the systematic errors of non-X-ray and cosmic-ray backgrounds of the X-ray Imaging Spectrometer, which are $\pm 6.0$ and $\pm 34$ cnt arcmin$^{-2}$, respectively, and the 3-sigma upper limit in the X-ray luminosity from the shock region, which is $1.1 \times 10^{32}$ erg s$^{-1}$ per 41.2 arcmin$^2$ in the 0.5 to 10 keV band. This result leads to three conclusions: (1) a shock-heating process is inefficient on this system; (2) the maximum energy of electrons does not exceed $\sim$ 10 TeV, corresponding to a Lorentz factor of less than $10^7$; and (3) the magnetic field in the shock acceleration site might not be as turbulent as those in pulsar wind nebulae and supernova remnants.

‘India isn’t big enough for such as us’: Conrad and Kipling’s Fictions of Extraction
Creators: name: Hiday, Corbin
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: The British late nineteenth century represents the apex of intermingled visions of progress and exhaustion tied to extractive imperial pursuits. The prevalence of the colonial adventure narrative, associated with writers like Rudyard Kipling, Joseph Conrad, and H. Rider Haggard, represents both peak ideological embrace of colonial capitalism (and the attendant social domination and resource extraction) and the Victorians’ clearest diagnostic critique of such an unsustainable commitment. In this essay, I rethink the ecological valences of the colonial adventure text by analyzing Conrad and Kipling alongside seemingly disparate thinkers: from William Stanley Jevons to Karl Marx, Raymond Williams to Edward Said. As I argue, in the conjunction between an overtly masculine attachment to colonial adventures, resource extraction, and capitalist progress, Kipling’s ‘The Man Who Would Be King’, alongside Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, reveals cracks in the colonial social order, a vision of the limits of ‘national progress’ reliant on finite and exhaustible resources.

The Polluted Textures of J.M.W. Turner’s Late Works
Creators: name: Gould, Sarah
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: This article considers the ways in which J.M.W. Turner’s engagement with the material surfaces of his works testifies to the ever-changing experiences of early industrialisation and globalisation. Turner’s obtrusive handling of paint was considered excessive by many of his contemporaries; his use of impasto was, especially in his late works, thought to thwart representation itself. The disruptive dimension of his technique has in turn become one of the main entry points for critical evaluations of his work and, for art historians, a crucial marker of his modernity. Shared by some art historical studies concentrating on this question is the idea that Turner’s treatment of matter is regarded as avant-garde because it testifies to a consciousness of form. Contrary to this view, this paper aims to show that an alternative conceptualisation of texture as a semiotically unstable category might contribute to reprocessing Turner’s attention to atmospheres. It will be my contention that through the expressivity of the painterly medium, Turner introduces a new relation to observed matter such as polluted air, both setting him apart from his contemporaries, and enabling him to illustrate subjects that were outside of traditional representations.

Gravitational bremsstrahlung in ultra-planckian collisions

description: A classical computation of gravitational bremsstrahlung in ultra-planckian collisions of massive point particles is presented in an arbitrary number d of toroidal or non-compact extra dimensions. Our method generalizes the post-linear formalism of General Relativity to the multidimensional case. The total emitted energy, as well as its angular and frequency distribution are discussed in detail. In terms of the gravitational radius r_S of the collision energy, the impact parameter b and the Lorentz factor in the CM frame, the leading order radiation efficiency in the Lab frame is shown to be of order (r_S/b)^{3(d+1)} gamma_{cm} for d=0, 1 and of order (r_S/b)^{3(d+1)} gamma_{cm}^{2d-3} for d>1, up to a known d-dependent coefficient and a ln gamma_{cm} factor for d=2, while the characteristic frequency of the radiation is gamma/b. The contribution of the low frequency part of the radiation (soft gravitons) to the total radiated energy is shown to be negligible for all values of d. The domain of validity of the classical result is discussed. Finally, it is shown that within the region of validity of our approach the efficiency can obtain unnatural values greater than one, which is interpreted to mean that the peripheral ultra-planckian collisions should be strongly radiation damped.

‘Some old-world savage animal’: H. G. Wells’ White Sphinx and the Terror of Posthuman Time
Creators: name: Gavurin, Billie
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: This article examines the significance of the White Sphinx statue in H. G. Wells’ The Time Machine (1895) in relation to Victorian anxieties surrounding deep time and posthuman futures. It argues first that contemporaneous developments in archaeology and palaeontology during the first half of the nineteenth century led to an elision between the two fields, with the result that Victorian literary depictions of archaeological artefacts often link them with geological or palaeontological timescales. In Wells’ The Time Machine, a colossal marble sphinx functions as a symbolic manifestation of complex and often conflicting questions surrounding the newly-conceptualised geological timescale that dwarfed human history, and that implied the disturbing likelihood of both pre-human and posthuman temporalities. At once an archaeological remnant produced by a human society, and a transitional hybrid body comprised of both human and animal elements, Wells’ sphinx is able simultaneously to embody historical and evolutionary timescales. As such, it appears to offer a possible answer to unsettling questions about time, history, and humanity’s place on this planet, if only its significance can be unriddled. Ultimately, however, the White Sphinx remains an unassailable enigma, testament to the incomprehensible profundity of deep time.

Gendered Ecologies in Anthony Trollope’s The Eustace Diamonds
Creators: name: Cameron, Lauren
Publisher: name: Victorian Network
Year: 2022

description: Considering the impact of Darwinian evolutionary discourse on Anthony Trollope’s The Eustace Diamonds, this essay examines the construction of the main character, Lizzie, through shifting cultural understandings of gender roles and human/animal identities. Looking at the impact of Darwinian theory on ecology from multiple perspectives elucidates the novel’s concerns with social structures that shape and constrain individual agency in women’s lives particularly. The Descent of Man’s complicating of the human/animal divide demonstrates the complexities of Lizzie’s reptilian characterisation while Victorian considerations of domestic animals highlight the importance of her portrayal as a cat. Her feline behaviour is a means of violating domestic norms and defining herself outside of traditional dichotomies. The legal ecology of the novel shows the inseparability of human and object materiality, a cultural concern to which Darwin’s work contributed. The animals and gemstones contribute to the novel’s larger argument about women’s ownership of their bodies and sexuality. Thus, relationships between the human, animal, and material challenge Victorian norms while fitting into the Palliser series’ interest in the limits and potential of women’s agency.
