description: Fe3O4 thin films with a thickness of about 140 nm have been deposited on MgO (001) substrates by reactive sputtering. Microstructural studies indicated that monocrystalline Fe3O4 thin films were epitaxially grown on the MgO substrates with a cubic-on-cubic orientation relationship with respect to the substrates. Strain field due to slight lattice mismatch between the films and substrates was observed. The saturation moment and the coercivity for in-plane magnetization hysteresis loop were 235 emu/cc and 500 Oe, respectively. The lower saturation moment value of the Fe3O4 thin film suggested that the strain field may play a role in the reduction of magnetization.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Plankton and hydrographic measurements from Georges Bank over the last 25 years indicate a close relationship between salinity and the plankton displacement volume during the spring. Both time series also exhibit significant relationships with a detrended North Atlantic Oscillation index and with a recruitment index for the local cod stock. Upon further analysis of these series, no consistent, logical, mechanistic connections are evident to explain the apparent relationships between the climate, the salinity and the biological indices. Identifying valid relationships will require a better understanding of the Bank’s ecosystem processes than that provided by the time series of the indices considered.

description: This article investigates how the hybrid nature of right-wing alternative news media striving for journalistic legitimacy and partisan credibility plays out on source and topical diversity and balance in article content. The article draws on a sample of 1000 randomly selected articles published by 20 right-wing alternative online news media from six countries (the US, the UK, Germany, Austria, Denmark, and Sweden) from March 2019 to February 2020 (i.e., in “routine” pre-COVID-19 times). The results show that most of the alternative media outlets in the sample cover relatively broad topical spectra. More specifically, US and UK media primarily focus on politics and policy issues, whereas Scandinavian media are more heavily geared toward societal issues and crime coverage. Overall, right-wing alternative news content is characterized by a variety of partisan and non-partisan sources. However, core partisan topic areas, such as politics and mass media, are more likely to include partisan and especially right-wing sources. Often, with respect to these topics, right-wing sources are evaluated positively, and left-wing sources are evaluated negatively. Finally, right-wing and non-right-wing sources often appear in separate articles rather than in direct confrontation.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Data on feeding, distribution and fatness of cod systemised for the period 1980-1990 (data from literature and the authors’ data) have reflected a wide range of conditions for its foraging and feeding adaptation. Types of cod foraging are distinguished depending on supply with the main food object capelin. Peculiarities are revealed in its feeding when capelin are in deficiency (1986-1988, 1995, 1997-1998) which are accompanied with a low fatness of cod. Under these conditions an increased accessibility of capelin during specific years was a compensatory factor that has contributed to maintaining of a high level of fat content (to being close to that during an intensive feeding on capelin.

description: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, schools were closed twice in Germany for several months. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether distant teaching activities increased from the first school lockdown to the second school lockdown and whether the frequency of distant teaching activities were related to students’ outcomes (motivation, competent and independent learning, perceived learning progress) during distant learning. To this end, N = 3,480 legal guardians filled in an online questionnaire during the second lockdown (see Steinmayr et al., 2021). Distant teaching activities greatly increased from the first lockdown to the second lockdown. Besides communication with a parent, all other distant teaching activities were more frequent at secondary schools. However, in both elementary and secondary schools, distant teaching activities varied greatly. Distant teaching activities as well as children’s characteristics and social background were independently important for students’ outcomes. The results are discussed with regard to their practical implications for realizing distant teaching.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Temperature condition dynamics in the Norwegian Sea Atlantic waters in late 9s was characterized by the transition from cooling in 1995-1997 to significant warming in 1998-1999. That occurred against a temperature rise having been in progress since early 90s and reaching maximum in 1997-1998 in the North-East Atlantic. This paper consider the main reason of these variations connected with the atmospheric processes and their influence on seasonal development and the distribution of important food object - Calanus finmarchicus.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Sea ice condition is one of the most important environmental factors that determine productivity in krill-dominated Antarctic ecosystem. Sea ice provides Antarctic krill with not only rich ice algae food but also protection from predators during winter. Meso-scale surveys off the Antarctic Peninsula area have revealed a positive correlation between krill recruitment success and inter-annual sea ice extent. In the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) off east Antarctica, krill biomass is small and its distribution restricted to narrow continental edge area while copepods, and occasionally salps, dominated as secondary producers. Goal of this study is to understand how sea ice dynamics function in the non-krill-dominated Antarctic ecosystem.

description: We propose a novel direct method for estimating steady state hydrogeological model parameters and model state variables in an aquifer where boundary conditions are unknown. The method is adapted from a recently developed potential theory technique for solving general inverse/reconstruction problems. Unlike many inverse techniques used for groundwater model calibration, the new method is not based on fitting and optimizing an objective function, which usually requires forward simulation and iterative parameter updates. Instead, it directly incorporates noisy observed data (hydraulic heads and flow rates) at the measurement points in a single step, without solving a boundary value problem. The new method is computationally efficient and is robust to the presence of observation errors. It has been tested on two-dimensional groundwater flow problems with regular and irregular geometries, different heterogeneity patterns, variances of heterogeneity, and error magnitudes. In all cases, parameters (hydraulic conductivities) converge to the correct or expected values and are thus unique, based on which heads and flow fields are constructed directly via a set of analytical expressions. Accurate boundary conditions are then inferred from these fields. The accuracy of the direct method also improves with increasing amount of observed data, lower measurement errors, and grid refinement. Under natural flow (i.e., no pumping), the direct method yields an equivalent conductivity of the aquifer, suggesting that the method can be used as an inexpensive characterization tool with which both aquifer parameters and aquifer boundary conditions can be inferred.

description: Although the Social Security Administration already provides information to the general public in Spanish, these efforts could be further bolstered by a better understanding of how best to reach the more than 20 million individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). Through a mixed-methods study, we provide initial insights into the Social Security communications needs and preferences of the largest group of LEP individuals: Spanish speakers. We find a statistically significant knowledge gap about Social Security between LEP Hispanics and other population groups. A substantially higher proportion of LEP Hispanics report not having any sources of information about Social Security, which may be a consequence of LEP Hispanics having fewer people in their social network who are knowledgeable about Social Security benefits. LEP Hispanics are less likely to receive relevant information from their employers and from financial institutions or other for-profit institutions. They are slightly more likely than other groups to receive information from the media. Qualitatively, we find high transaction costs for LEP Hispanics when seeking information or applying for safety net programs due to language barriers and uncertainty about eligibility, which may chill information-seeking and program take-up. The perception of potentially fraught in-person interactions mixed with uncertainty about the accuracy of online sources limits information options for LEP individuals. Typically, participants reported learning about programs in schools, healthcare settings (especially hospitals and clinics), and through community organizations and events. Understanding the most common institutional interactions among LEP Hispanics may contribute to developing more effective outreach strategies.

description: Abstract

Background: Tibial diaphyseal fractures have been treated with intramedullary nailing on a regular basis. The most common post-operative consequence of this approach has been identified as chronic anterior knee discomfort. We investigated the connection between anterior knee discomfort and the proximal tibia nail tip position. Materials and Methods: June 2021 and October 2023, 52 tibial fractures were treated using locked intramedullary nails. We examined the relationship between postoperative anterior knee pain and age, gender distribution, distance from the tip of the nail to anterior cortex of tibia and height of the nail. Chi-square test was used to assess the incidence of knee pain. Results: The two groups were similar with respect to gender and follow up period. Out of 52 patients who had knee pain 32 (61.54%) had nail tip within proximal third distance from plateau to tibial tuberosity. Thirteen patients (25%) among knee pain group had nail prominence of more than 0-3mm from anterior tibial cortex followed by 11 patients (21.15%) within 4-6mm and 8 patients (15.38%) nail tip buried within the anterior cortex. the difference between the zones were found to be statistically significant (P= 0.031). Conclusion: A greater incidence of knee pain was found when nail was prominent more than 5mm and when it is in the proximal third distance from tibial plateau to tuberosity. Patients should be aware of high incidence of knee pain when the nail tip is placed in proximal third and prominence of more than 4-6mm.

description: John Ponet's Shorte Treatise of Politike Power (1556) has often been noted for its argument against tyranny. At the same time, scholars have repeatedly commented on Ponet's apparent movement from violent resistance to prayer at the book's conclusion. Barrett Beer, for example, suggests that Ponet "was not successful in spelling out how the people, those who were the subjects of a tyrant, were to free themselves from oppression," and he adds that the Treatise "ends not with a blast of the trumpet calling for the saints to rise against tyranny, but with a prayer exhorting a suffering people to repent of their sins and trust in God to change 'variable England to the constant Jerusalem, from the company of men to the fellowship of angels.'"

description: Isotopic composition measurements of singly charged cosmic rays (CR) provide essential insights into CR transport in the Galaxy. The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) can identify singly charged isotopes up to about 10 GeV/n. However, their identification presents challenges due to the small abundance of CR deuterons compared to the proton background. In particular, a high accuracy for the velocity measured by a ring-imaging Cherenkov detector (RICH) is needed to achieve a good isotopic mass separation over a wide range of energies. The velocity measurement with the RICH is particularly challenging for $Z=1$ isotopes due to the low number of photons produced in the Cherenkov rings. This faint signal is easily disrupted by noisy hits leading to a misreconstruction of the particles' ring. Hence, an efficient background reduction process is needed to ensure the quality of the reconstructed Cherenkov rings and provide a correct measurement of the particles' velocity. Machine learning methods, particularly boosted decision trees, are well suited for this task, but their performance relies on the choice of the features needed for their training phase. While physics-driven feature selection methods based on the knowledge of the detector are often used, machine learning algorithms for automated feature selection can provide a helpful alternative that optimises the classification method's performance. We compare five algorithms for selecting the feature samples for RICH background reduction, achieving the best results with the Random Forest method. We also test its performance against the physics-driven selection method, obtaining better results.

description: Rural communities face specific challenges to accessing information about government safety net programs that can provide essential assistance to reduce urban-rural inequalities and contribute to the rural economy. This mixed-methods study examines these challenges, and preferred methods for outreach efforts to increase program awareness and take-up in rural areas. Our qualitative findings align broadly with previous research that suggests distance to in-person resources and unreliable internet access are critical obstacles in rural areas. These challenges are exacerbated for groups with more vulnerabilities, including those on low-incomes, the elderly, those experiencing disease or disability, compromising their ability to access information, benefit claim support, and, in the case of disability claims, the required medical records. Nevertheless, quantitative analyses reveal that, despite having lower internet literacy, rural populations overall have similar access to certain Social Security information resources as their urban peers, notably the Social Security Statement. Still, a large number of rural respondents have low levels of information and access and, overall, rural areas exhibit a strong preference for print and in-person Social Security information relative to nonrural respondents. Government agencies’ expansion of online access to programs and information to counteract the barriers to in-person access in rural areas may be only partially effective, since internet connectivity and literacy remain a challenge for some, especially in more disadvantaged areas. Native American reservations may be of particular concern. Moreover, the focus on online access may be insufficient for rural communities where many continue to prefer other modes of communication.
Genetic and Functional Characterization of the Host-Pathogen Interactions Underlying the Barley-Net Form Net Blotch Pathosystem

description: Net blotch is a disease of barley that causes significant yield and quality loss throughout global barley growing regions. This disease is caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Pyrenophora teres and presents in two distinct forms that differ in genetic structure and macroscopic lesion patterns: net form net blotch (NFNB) caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres (Ptt), and spot form net blotch (SFNB) caused by Pyrenophora teres f. maculata (Ptm). While predominantly known as diseases of barley, multiple populations of both Ptt and Ptm have been recently found to infect wheat, representing a host jump that could impact wheat production in the future. The data presented here focuses on the host-pathogen interactions underlying resistance and susceptibility to Ptt, with a particular emphasis on the resistance to Pyrenophora teres 5 (Rpt5) – susceptibility to Pyrenophora teres 1 (Spt1) locus that has been previously shown to be highly important in this pathosystem. Association mapping of Ptt resistance in the wild barley diversity collection (WBDC) identified 18 unique loci associated with resistance to four distinct Ptt isolates, three of which are novel loci that were previously unmapped. High-resolution mapping of the Rpt5 locus resulted in the identification of a strong candidate gene encoding a receptor-like protein (RLP), which was subsequently validated as the first resistance gene cloned in this pathosystem. Functional characterization of this RLP identified an interaction with a putative effector, Ptt nuclear localization signal 1 (PttNLS1), which was found to suppress the expression of host pathogenesis-related (PR) genes and is a strong candidate for the Rpt5 avirulence protein (Avr-Rpt5). High-resolution mapping data across multiple independent populations reveals that Rpt5 and Spt1 map to the same genomic location, and allele analysis suggests that perhaps these two distinct phenotypes are caused by the same RLP encoding gene in an allele specific manner. Finally, we propose a functional model suggesting that the Rpt5/Spt1 locus evolved as a PR protein monitoring system and an evolutionary model revealing the host-pathogen co-evolutionary arms race underlying this economically important pathosystem.

Ο ψηφιακός μετασχηματισμός έχει επηρεάσει όλες τις επιχειρήσεις σε όλο τον κόσμο και τις περισσότερες φορές έχει θετικό πρόσημο. Οι επιχειρήσεις αυξάνουν το κέρδος μέσω της ψηφιοποιημένης τεχνολογίας, μειώνουν τα λειτουργικά έξοδα της επιχείρησης και ελέγχουν καλύτερα την αποδοτικότητα των υπαλλήλων. Σαφώς οι επιχειρήσεις πρέπει να διαθέτουν πόρους και να επενδύουν στην τεχνολογία μέσω της απόκτησης του κατάλληλου εξοπλισμού και παράλληλα μέσω της απόκτησης εξειδικευμένου προσωπικού, όμως όλο αυτό το εγχείρημα θα επιφέρει σε άμεσο χρονικό διάστημα κέρδη. Η ποιότητα του ανθρώπινου δυναμικού παίζει πολύ σημαντικό ρόλο στην επιτυχημένη πορεία μίας επιχείρησης.

Ο σταδιακός ψηφιακός μετασχηματισμός ήταν σχεδόν βέβαιο ότι θα συνέβαινε και ήταν αναπόφευκτος. Ωστόσο, ο COVID-19 επιτάχυνε κάπως τις εξελίξεις. Βγαίνοντας όμως σιγά σιγά από την πανδημία, θα ήταν ωφέλιμο οι επιχειρήσεις να έκαναν μία αποτίμηση από τις συνέπειες που επέφερε και να προσδιορίσουν τα πλεονεκτήματα και τα μειονεκτήματα, έτσι ώστε να διαμορφώσουν τη στρατηγική τους. Στο πρώτο κεφάλαιο της εργασίας αναλύεται η έννοια του ψηφιακού μετασχηματισμού με επιμέρους χρήσιμες πληροφορίες.

description: Today, there is a divide between Democrats and Republicans that is based on negative attitudes towards the other party and its partisans. This is defined as affective polarization, which has been rising in recent decades. Given that affective polarization can have political consequences, understanding this rise is important for democratic governance. Some have pointed to the proliferation of partisan news media to explain the rise of this polarization. Although we know that media can influence partisan attitudes and lead to polarization, there is still debate about when and how partisans will be motivated to consume both pro- and counter-attitudinal news sources.To that end, I ask when partisans will be motivated to tune into the media and accept its messages. I argue that to truly understand this mechanism, we need to incorporate emotions into it. Depending on the direction of emotional reactions to political events, partisans will be motivated to choose a certain media outlet to regulate these emotional reactions. Emotions will be the defining factor in terms of whether partisan viewers will expose themselves to pro- and counter attitudinal news media. As they experience more negative emotions and choose to consume more pro-attitudinal media outlets, affective polarization will increase.
description: To test my claims, I take a mixed-method approach. I first analyze existing datasets to explore the relationship between affective polarization, media choice and emotions. Next, I carry out a survey experiment and a weekly survey to illustrate how and when emotional reactions to political events are likely to motivate partisans to accept the messages of news media and affectively polarize. Finally, I interview partisans to better understand motivations behind news media choice and investigate the influence of different types of events on partisans’ emotional reactions.
description: Based on my analysis, I find substantial support for my theory. Partisans do have emotional reactions to political events that do influence their media choices. Moreover, pro-attitudinal media choices can lead to affective polarization, if partisans react negatively to political events. Overall, this research shows the importance of considering the role of emotions in politics, particularly when thinking about partisan media choice and affective polarization.

description: Premise: Bromeliaceae form a large, ecologically diverse family of angiosperms native to the New World. We use a bromeliad phylogeny based on eight plastid regions to analyze relationships within the family, test a new, eight-subfamily classification, infer the chronology of bromeliad evolution and invasion of different regions, and provide the basis for future analyses of trait evolution and rates of diversification. Methods: We employed maximum-parsimony, maximum-likelihood, and Bayesian approaches to analyze 9341 aligned bases for four outgroups and 90 bromeliad species representing 46 of 58 described genera. We calibrate the resulting phylogeny against time using penalized likelihood applied to a monocot-wide tree based on plastid ndhF sequences and use it to analyze patterns of geographic spread using parsimony, Bayesian inference, and the program S-DIVA. Results: Bromeliad subfamilies are related to each other as follows: (Brocchinioideae, (Lindmanioideae, (Tillandsioideae, (Hechtioideae, (Navioideae, (Pitcairnioideae, (Puyoideae, Bromelioideae))))))). Bromeliads arose in the Guayana Shield ca. 100 million years ago (Ma), spread centrifugally in the New World beginning ca. 16-13 Ma, and dispersed to West Africa ca. 9.3 Ma. Modern lineages began to diverge from each other roughly 19 Ma. Conclusions: Nearly two-thirds of extant bromeliads belong to two large radiations: the core tillandsioids, originating in the Andes ca. 14.2 Ma, and the Brazilian Shield bromelioids, originating in the Serro do Mar and adjacent regions ca. 9.1 Ma.
