description: Sudan's present economic crisis suggests a need for evaluating the role of its irrigated subsector, the largest in Sub-Saharan Africa, in agricultural and economic recovery. The present system of production in the subsector results in a suboptimal use of imported inputs like fertilizer. The need for such an evaluation centers on changes in cropping patterns, in institutions, and in production technologies that will help generate foreign exchange earnings, Government revenues, and farm sector income.

Investigating Bird-Building Collisions at the University of British Columbia’s Vancouver Campus
Creators: name: Yatsuda, Satori
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Human-wildlife conflict is an inevitable issue that can be observed in almost every sector of living in the Anthropocene. Bird-building collisions, which cause the deaths of 25 million birds annually in Canada, are a prime example (Machtans et al., 2013). These collisions occur due to avian vision not perceiving glass as a direct barrier. Specifically, the fact that windows are highly reflective, and are often in close proximity to tall vegetation and nearby attractants such as bird feeders cause many birds with high flight speeds to be unable to avoid impact in time. This study investigated the number of collisions occurring at the Buchanan Blocks (A-E) on the University of British Columbia’s Vancouver Campus in an 8-week study, as well as looked at how retrofitting with the use of FeatherFriendlyⓇ markers affected these findings. An 80% decrease in collision evidence was found between 2021 and 2024, with two facades being retrofitted during 2022 and 2023, suggesting that the use of these stickers should be continued at Buchanan, specifically as a cost-effective solution for existing windows. Finally, education is a crucial aspect of management that leads to continued support towards human-wildlife coexistence.

description: Factors affecting farmers' adoption of soil conservation practices varied by owned and rented land and by state, in this four-state, eight-county analysis. The differences among states, tenure classes, and various dependent variables left little basis for a model that could predict adoption of practices in the areas studied. Each state contained unique characteristics; thus, no uniform guidelines for erosion control programs appear appropriate. However, there were some common variables. For example, there was strong statistical agreement that rented land on the farms surveyed was not enrolled in the erosion control targeting program at the same rate as was owned land. Previous conservation efforts and participation in previous Soil Conservation Service programs have a generally significant and positive effect on adoption. Other variables provided mixed signals as to strength and direction of impact on adoption.

description: The database of Prof. Rogers (1887), which includes wheat prices in England in the Middle Ages, was used to search for a possible influence of solar activity on the wheat market. We present a conceptual model of possible modes for sensitivity of wheat prices to weather conditions, caused by solar cycle variations, and compare expected price fluctuations with price variations recorded in medieval England. We compared statistical properties of the intervals between wheat price bursts during years 1249-1703 with statistical properties of the intervals between minimums of solar cycles during years 1700-2000. We show that statistical properties of these two samples are similar, both for characteristics of the distributions and for histograms of the distributions. We analyze a direct link between wheat prices and solar activity in the 17th Century, for which wheat prices and solar activity data (derived from 10Be isotope) are available. We show that for all 10 time moments of the solar activity minimums the observed prices were higher than prices for the correspondent time moments of maximal solar activity (100% sign correlation, on a significance level < 0.2%). We consider these results as a direct evidence of the causal connection between wheat prices bursts and solar activity.

description: The United States is the world's largest wheat exporter and is second only to China in total wheat production. However, the value and volume of U.S. exports and its share of the world wheat market have declined sharply since 1981. The Economic Research Service held a Wheat Competitiveness Conference in June 1986, concentrating on key factors affecting changes in U.S. wheat trade. The 23 papers presented at the conference focused on wheat production, marketing, and consumption in the United States and its four major competitors (France, Argentina, Canada, and Australia) and on six major importers (Mexico, Brazil, USSR, Eastern Europe, North Africa, and China). Those papers are summarized here.

description: The emission of nuclear clusters is investigated within the framework of isospin dependent lattice gas model and classical molecular dynamics model. It is found that the emission of individual cluster which is heavier than proton is almost Poissonian except near the transition temperature at which the system is leaving the liquid-vapor phase coexistence and the thermal scaling is observed by the linear Arrhenius plots which is made from the average multiplicity of each cluster versus the inverse of temperature in the liquid vapor phase coexistence. The slopes of the Arrhenius plots, {\it i.e.} the "emission barriers", are extracted as a function of the mass or charge number and fitted by the formula embodied with the contributions of the surface energy and Coulomb interaction. The good agreements are obtained in comparison with the data for low energy conditional barriers. In addition, the possible influences of the source size, Coulomb interaction and "freeze-out" density and related physical implications are discussed.

description: Growth in the agricultural GDP of four major European countries is compared with U.S. agricultural growth for the period 1974-1993. The agricultural sector's domestic terms of trade with the rest of the economy is taken into account along with economy-wide factor market adjustments. For all the four countries— Denmark, France, Germany, and the U.K.— the effects of declining real prices and changes in input levels on growth in agricultural GDP are relatively small on average. Total Factor Productivity (TFP) appears to be the major contributor to European agricultural GDP growth. TFP is the major source of growth in U.S. and EU agricultural GDP, but its rate of growth in the United States is lower than the European countries for the same period. The declining real prices for U.S. agriculture had a large effect on its GDP as compared with the EU. However, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, the effects of declining real prices and declining rates of growth in TFP on European agriculture were relatively large. In the longer run, the relative competitiveness of U.S. agriculture is largely dependent on its ability to sustain and increase growth in TFP.

description: This document provides an overview of a research project that identified U.S. commuting zones and labor market areas with journey-to-work data from the 1990 Census. This research replicated a previous delineation of U.S. 1980 commuting zones and labor market areas. County to county flows of commuters were analyzed with a hierarchical cluster algorithm. The results of the cluster analysis were used to identify commuting zones (i.e., group's of counties with strong commuting ties). For 1990, 741 commuting zones were delineated for all U.S. counties and county equivalents. These commuting zones are intended for use as spatial measures of local labor markets when researchers are not concerned with minimum population thresholds. Where necessary, the commuting zones were then aggregated into 394 labor market areas that met the Bureau of the Census' criterion— of a 100,000 population minimum. This was done to acquire a special 1990 Census Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS-L) that identifies labor market areas in which individuals live and work. The commuting zones and labor market areas were also classified according to the population of the largest place within them.

description: Policymaking is an arduous process and politicians often fail to change the status quo despite their best efforts. I introduce the notion of influence players, an umbrella term for political actors such as interest groups or legislators, who can positively or negatively affect policy proposals’ odds of implementation by exerting costly effort. Analysing a parsimonious model of policymaking with an imperfectly effective politician and an influence player, I show how and when threats, opposition, or support can affect policymaking, depending on the influence player’s cost of effort and effectiveness. My comparative static analysis shows that, under certain conditions, influence players can be harmed by being more effective or having a lower cost of effort, through these changes’ consequences on their bargaining position. I conclude my analysis by discussing the perspectives the model offers on legislative politics and special interest politics.

description: Widespread population growth is underway in nonmetro America, mostly as a result of favorable net migration. We examine in- and outmigration separately to measure the relative importance of each to this resurgence. In addition, we explore the changing relationships among nonmetro migration, urban influence, and industrial structure. Isolated nonmetro areas were capturing a significant share of total net migration by 1993-94, but the relative contribution of in- and outmig ration varied regionally. Controlling for industrial structure and natural amenities, the effect of metro proximity on nonmetro net migration switched from positive to negative between 1988-89 and 1993- 94. Results suggest a revived period of deconcentration as people are increasingly able to act upon long-held residential preferences. Emerging migration patterns coincide with changes in rural comparative advantage. The rural advantage is increasingly based on the residential and recreational attractiveness of its natural amenities rather than on the extractive value of its natural resources or its production-related advantages.

description: The highly granular silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter (SiW ECAL) is the reference design of the ECAL for the International Large Detector (ILD) concept, one of the two detector concepts proposed for the future International Linear Collider (ILC). Prototypes for this type of detector are developed within the CALICE Collaboration. This contribution reports on the development of an ultra-thin PCB called Chip-on-Board (COB) that is equipped with wirebonded ASICs and pixelated silicon wafers. This set will form the basic unit of detection of the SiW ECAL. It will favour the design of an ultra compact calorimeter since these boards feature a thickness of 1.2 mm to be compared with the 3 mm of the default solution variant using ASICs in BGA packaging. We report also on the first results obtained with the COB boards on a beam test at DESY.

Adapting Deep Learning for Sentiment Classification of Code-Switched Informal Short Text

description: Nowadays, an abundance of short text is being generated that uses nonstandard writing styles influenced by regional languages. Such informal and code-switched content are under-resourced in terms of labeled datasets and language models even for popular tasks like sentiment classification. In this work, we (1) present a labeled dataset called MultiSenti for sentiment classification of code-switched informal short text, (2) explore the feasibility of adapting resources from a resource-rich language for an informal one, and (3) propose a deep learning-based model for sentiment classification of code-switched informal short text. We aim to achieve this without any lexical normalization, language translation, or code-switching indication. The performance of the proposed models is compared with three existing multilingual sentiment classification models. The results show that the proposed model performs better in general and adapting character-based embeddings yield equivalent performance while being computationally more efficient than training word-based domain-specific embeddings.

description: The vortex picture of confinement is employed to explore the signals of confinement in Yang-Mills Green functions. By using SU(2) lattice gauge theory, it has been well established that the removal of the center vortices from the lattice configurations results in the loss of confinement. The running coupling constant, the gluon and the ghost form factors are studied in Landau gauge for both cases, the full and the vortex removed theory. In the latter case, a strong suppression of the running coupling constant and the gluon form factor at low momenta is observed. At the same time, the singularity of the ghost form factor at vanishing momentum disappears. This observation establishes an intimate correlation between the ghost singularity and confinement. The result also shows that a removal of the vortices generates a theory for which Zwanziger's horizon condition for confinement is no longer satisfied.

description: The effects of differing migration patterns of the poor and nonpoor on the distribution of poverty rates geographically and ecologically (i.e., across the rural-urban continuum and across counties with differing economic and social characteristics) are described. Migration rates of working-age and retirement-age poor and nonpoor from 1985-90 are analyzed in several geographical frameworks, and poverty rates from the last two decennial censuses are compared across the same categories. This provides a general picture of how the poor are distributed geographically and ecologically, how that distribution changed during the 1980s, and how migration of the poor and nonpoor functioned to reduce, maintain, or heighten spatial differentials in poverty rates. Attention is given primarily to nonmetropolitan areas and how the distribution of poverty there was affected by migration processes. Migration patterns were found consistently to maintain and reinforce the pre-existing disparities in the distribution of the poor and nonpoor.

This condition rules out certain sign changes of the imaginary part of the principal symbol along the bicharacteristics of the real part. We obtain local solvability by proving a localizable estimate of the adjoint operator with a loss of two derivatives (compared with the elliptic case). The proof involves a new metric in the Weyl (or Beals-Fefferman) calculus which makes it possible to reduce to the case when the gradient of the imaginary part is non-vanishing, so that the zeroes forms a smooth submanifold. The estimate uses a new type of weight, which measures the changes of the distance to the zeroes of the imaginary part along the bicharacteristics of the real part between the minima of the curvature of this submanifold. By using condition ($Ψ$) and this weight, we can construct a multiplier giving the estimate.

description: The assumption of adjustment costs is used to specify a dynamic model of the U.S. economy. Output is divided into in three sectors: agriculture, manufacturing, and services. The advantage of this approach is that it can measure more factors that contribute to productivity growth than a static model. Output growth and productivity are measured using data and parameters from an estimated dynamic model. Parameters that are unique to dynamic models and a returns-to-scale measure make up part of the productivity calculations. Dynamic components of productivity are less than 5 percent of productivity growth for most years. This occurs because dynamic components of productivity are a function of returns to scale, and production is measured to be close to constant returns to scale. Elasticities from the estimated model show that both manufacturing and service prices have a major impact on agricultural output. Own-price elasticities are relatively small for agriculture.

description: The objective of this work is to determine what fraction of red-giant (RG) stars shows photometric rotational modulation, and understand its origin. One of the underlying questions is the role of close binarity in this population, standing upon the fact that RGs in short-period binary systems (<150 days or so) have been observed to display strong rotational modulation. We select a sample of about 4500 relatively bright RGs observed by Kepler, and show that 370 of them (8%) display rotational modulation. Almost all have oscillation amplitudes below the median of the sample, while 30 of them are not oscillating at all. Of the 85 of these RGs with rotational modulation chosen for follow-up radial-velocity observation and analysis, 34 show clear evidence of spectroscopic binarity. Surprisingly, 26 of the 30 non-oscillators are in this group of binaries. To the contrary, about 85% of the active RGs with detectable oscillations are not part of close binaries. With the help of stellar masses and evolutionary states computed from the oscillation properties, it appears that low-mass red-giant branch stars tend to be magnetically inactive, while intermediate-mass ones tend to be highly active. The opposite trends are true for helium-core burning (red clump) stars, whereby the lower-mass clump stars are comparatively more active and the higher-mass ones less so. In other words, we find that low-mass red-giant branch stars gain angular momentum as they evolve to clump stars, while higher-mass ones lose angular momentum. The trend observed with low-mass stars leads to possible scenarios of planet engulfment or other merging events during the shell-burning phase. Regarding intermediate-mass stars, the rotation periods are long with respect to theoretical expectations reported in the literature, which reinforces the existence of an unidentified sink of angular momentum after the main sequence.

description: Significant differences exist in the rates of capital adjustment in the four major sectors (agriculture, food processing, manufacturing, and services) of the U.S. economy. The properties of a quadratic value function from a multi-output adjustment cost model are used to derive dynamic supply and investment demand of the four sectors, which are then fitted to time series data. Our estimates show that capital in agriculture and manufacturing is almost fixed and adjusts toward longrun equilibrium at a rate of about 2 percent per year. The food processing and services sectors are more flexible in that their capital stocks fully adjust in less than 5 years. Theoretically consistent supply elasticities further validate the results. Strong linkages among the four major sectors of the economy are also identified. The rates of capital adjustment help explain the pattern of capital's contribution to growth in the various sectors of the economy.

description: The object of this paper is a refinement in the calculation of net returns (profit) to farmers by improving the measurement of one of the costs of farming, the opportunity cost of the farm owner-operator's time. This opportunity cost is often measured as the number of hours the owner-operator works on the farm multiplied by the average wage of hired farmers, plus a portion of farm income. In this paper, I estimate the opportunity cost of time for individual farm operators by imputing an alternative off -farm wage foy each individual based on that individual's characteristics. The results suggest that average net returns to farmers are negative for all regions in the United States with the Northeast being the lowest. Average personal income for farmers is, however, positive in all regions.

description: Este artigo destaca o importante legado do Dr. Fidel Pagés, no ano que se comemora o centenário da sua descoberta, a anestesia epidural. Nascido em 1886 em Huesca, este Comandante médico foi o pioneiro da anestesia epidural, que denominaria anestesia metamérica no seu artigo publicado em Março de 1921 na Revista Española de Cirugía, e posteriormente reproduzido no mês de Junho do mesmo ano na Revista de Sanidad Militar. A sua morte prematura num acidente de viação em 1923, fez com que provavelmente a sua descoberta passasse despercebida. Em 1931, Dogliotti publicou as suas experiências sobre a anestesia epidural, trabalho que foi reconhecido rapidamente e pelo que lhe foi atribuida inadequadamente a paternidade da técnica epidural. Foi o cirurgião argentino Alberto Gutiérrez, Diretor do “Servicio de Cirurgia de Mujeres del Hospital Español” de Buenos Aires (Argentina), e quem tinha utilizado a anestesia epidural desde 1929, quem alertou do erro, manifestando que o descobridor da anestesia epidural foi o Dr. Pagés. Neste artigo realizamos uma análise do seu trabalho sobre a “anestesia metamérica”, assim como de “alguns aspetos da vida do pioneiro da anestesia epidural.

description: This report provides a classification of counties and independent cities by level of urban influence in 1990. Urban influence is measured by the size of metro areas, the adjacency of nonmetro counties to each size of metro area, and the size of the largest city within each nonmetro county. This classification may be a valuable tool for researchers interested in the effects of population concentration on county economies

description: This report presents estimates of the effective tax burden placed on the lifetime income stream from a marginal addition to regional farm sector capital portfolios, and the ownership costs of these capital additions. Estimates are based on a framework that uses Jorgenson's method of measuring the cost of capital, and data requirements are largely met using official U.S. Government statistics and State and Federal statutory tax rules. Results vary widely across farm production regions due to Federal and State income and wealth tax systems. This disparity systematically changes with alternative assumptions regarding inflationary expectations and the rate of return from employing capital in production. The tax system, inflationary expectations, and the expected rate of return to capital-all of which are influenced by fiscal and monetary policies- affect the relative tax burden and expected lifetime net income from new investments in productive capital across farm production regions.

Adaptive Safety with Control Barrier Functions

description: Adaptive Control Lyapunov Functions (aCLFs) were introduced 20 years ago, and provided a Lyapunov-based methodology for stabilizing systems with parameter uncertainty. The goal of this paper is to revisit this classic formulation in the context of safety-critical control. This will motivate a variant of aCLFs in the context of safety: adaptive Control Barrier Functions (aCBFs). Our proposed approach adaptively achieves safety by keeping the systems state within a safe set even in the presence of parametric model uncertainty. We unify aCLFs and aCBFs into a single control methodology for systems with uncertain parameters in the context of a Quadratic Program (QP) based framework. We validate the ability of this unified framework to achieve stability and safety in an adaptive cruise control (ACC) simulation.

description: The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has dramatically changed our clinical practice. Although elective procedures were initially postponed1, medical departments had to create conditions for a safe return to routine activity as well as increasing the safety of urgent procedures. These images refer to a left atrial appendage (LAA) closure with a WACTHMAN FLX device, in a 76-year-old man with atrial fibrillation and cerebrovascular disease (and contraindication to anticoagulation/high bleeding risk). It was performed with transesophageal echocardiography under deep sedation and spontaneous ventilation, similar to our preferred anesthetic technique for this type of patients and procedure. Strategies to minimize virus dispersion, as personal protective equipment, low flow oxygen therapy and plastic boxes, have been described to minimize virus dispersion.2 Although in our institution, barrier boxes have been used in the operating room for endotracheal intubation, they do not have compatible configuration for cardiac catheterization lab. Thus in order to carry out these procedures, an arch with plastic protection was specifically created to be placed around the patient’s airway, providing maximal protection to the health care team. This device allows the procedures and projections to be carried out safely without interfering with the anesthetic plan. Ongoing Heart Team activity and communication are vital to provide the best outcome.1
