description: Freshwater picocyanobacteria form the base of microbial foodwebs in many lakes worldwide but have received less attention than other phytoplankton. Little is known about their potential response to environmental changes such as increased nutrient loading and climate change, due partly to the lack of available cultured and sequenced strains. Here, we isolated 25 monoclonal picocyanobacterial strains from six New Zealand lakes with contrasting trophic states. The use of MLA media instead of BG11 proved highly successful for the rapid isolation of picocyanobacteria. Strains were characterised by sequencing of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene, spectrophotometry and high-performance liquid chromatography. 16S rRNA gene analysis placed most strains within the cluster 5 picocyanobacterial lineage (sub-cluster 5.2, family: Synechococcaceae). Phylogenetic analysis showed that twelve isolates from Lakes Wakatipu, Hayes, Johnson and Ellesmere/Te Waihora clustered with strains from a range of Northern Hemisphere locations, suggesting global dispersal of these strains. Pigment characterisation revealed that pink- and brown-coloured cultures from oligotrophic and some eutrophic lakes were rich in phycoerythrin (PE), whilst green-coloured cultures from eutrophic and hypertrophic lakes were rich in phycocyanin (PC). This diverse group of freshwater cluster 5 picocyanobacterial cultures will provide a new resource to study how these critically important microbes function and respond to changing environmental stressors.

description: Ecosystem models that measure the impact of quantitative interactions between trophic levels are widely used tools in ecosystem studies and fishery management. We constructed a mass-balanced trophic model using Ecopath with Ecosim (EwE) modelling suite for the large shallow Lake Võrtsjärv, Estonia. The model was calibrated for 36 years (1983-2018) and included 23 functional groups. We examined trophic relationships, functional group interactions, energy fluxes and keystone groups having a high impact on the ecosystem relative to their biomass. We tested 6 hypothetical scenarios based on future biomass changes for the major functional groups (phytoplankton, zooplankton, macrozoobenthos, piscivorous fish and bream) for 20 years. The output of the predictive scenarios showed that the biomass changes of planktonic groups would affect the whole food- web. Among consumers, macrozoobenthos was crucial for the food web balance as a reduction of their biomass would also reduce the biomass of the fish community. Changes in fish catches would cause minimal biomass difference in other groups. While an increased fishing pressure on large piscivores would have a marked effect on the rest of the food web, the reduction of non-piscivorous fish like bream would have little effect. The results suggested a positive relationship between the biomass of small phytoplankton and fish, alluding to the prevalence of bottom-up trophic processes. These outcomes could be helpful for assessing trophic dynamics in shallow lakes that are important for fisheries and ecosystem management.

description: In this paper we study the dynamics of relativistic domain walls in the presence of static symmetry-restoring impurities. The field theory is precisely the same as what is known to cosmologists as the "symmetron model", whereby the usual $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry breaking potential is appended with a space-varying mass-term (the space-variation is set by the profile of the impurity, which we take to be a "tanh"-function). After presenting the outcomes of a suite of different numerical experiments we have three main results: (1) domain walls pin to impurities, (2) domain wall necklaces can be energetically preferred configurations, and (3) impurities significantly modifies the usual ${N}_{\rm dw}\propto t^{-1}$ scaling law for random networks of domain walls.

description: The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for establishing standards for all programs under Departmental authority and for advising federal agencies on the preservation of historic properties listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. In partial fulfillment of this responsibility The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties have been developed to guide work undertaken on historic properties; there are separate standards for preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction. The Standards for Rehabilitation (codified in 36 CFR 67) comprise that section of the overall treatment standards and address the most prevalent treatment. “Rehabilitation” is defined as the act or process of making possible a compatible use for a property through repair, alterations, and additions while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values.”

description: Floodplain wetlands play a significant role in the storage of sediment and water and support high levels of nutrient cycling driven by intermittent inundation. In regulated rivers, the frequency and duration of floodplain inundation are often reduced. Managed water inundation is used as a tool to help restore floodplains, but its outcome on wetlands requires further quantification. We examined the effects of environmental floodplain watering on water quality and 3 groups of invertebrates, including benthic and pelagic microinvertebrates and macroinvertebrates, in 2 wetlands systems on the Gwydir River system in the north of the Murray-Darling Basin. We hypothesised that a wetland inundated for longer periods would alter water quality and support a greater richness and abundance of invertebrates, thus altering their assemblage structures. Water quality and the assemblage structure of all 3 invertebrate groups in the wetlands were significantly influenced by the time since connection (TSC) to their rivers and therefore the length of inundation. However, the response of water quality and the microinvertebrate assemblages to TSC differed between the 2 wetlands. Water quality was affected by an increase in 6 variables, including total nitrogen, and a decrease in soluble reactive phosphorus. Microinvertebrate abundance was positively associated with TSC, but the abundance of macroinvertebrates was not. The relationships demonstrated between TSC and invertebrates indicate that the duration of inundation is important for ecological structure and food webs in these and other semiarid floodplain wetlands.

description: This article presents an empirical investigation of factors influencing local renewable energy (RE) deployment. The existing literature has mainly focused on the global contribution of RE at the macro-country level. The particularity of this study resides in the extension of the analysis to the local level, and it was motivated by the fact that the targets for RE deployment are partly defined at the national level, but the establishment of the means of production and the organization is delegated to the local level. Using French data for 95 administrative divisions (départements), we estimate a spatial panel data econometric model by considering serial correlation in the remainder errors. The results reveal strong spatial spillovers and high time persistence, suggesting that the presence of proximity between French local governments conducts local RE policies. The RE deployment of a given department is thus affected by its neighbours. Some determinants of RE deployment are finally identified to help authorities to increase RE supply in the future. Income effect is significant and derived for solar energy and bioenergy and is supplemented by indebtedness that seems to be a favourable strategy to increase solar RE investments. Political ideology is likely to partly explain wind and bioenergy deployment. Finally, geographical factors remain important drivers: solar energy is more developed in southern regions while wind power is more deployed in the north. Based on these results, policy coordination between departments is required to maximize their natural potentialities and increase RE deployment in the future.

description: Electric-field noise near surfaces is a common problem in diverse areas of physics, and a limiting factor for many precision measurements. There are multiple mechanisms by which such noise is generated, many of which are poorly understood. Laser-cooled, trapped ions provide one of the most sensitive systems to probe electric-field noise at MHz frequencies and over a distance range 30 - 3000 $μ$m from the surface. Over recent years numerous experiments have reported spectral densities of electric-field noise inferred from ion heating-rate measurements and several different theoretical explanations for the observed noise characteristics have been proposed. This paper provides an extensive summary and critical review of electric-field noise measurements in ion traps, and compares these experimental findings with known and conjectured mechanisms for the origin of this noise. This reveals that the presence of multiple noise sources, as well as the different scalings added by geometrical considerations, complicate the interpretation of these results. It is thus the purpose of this review to assess which conclusions can be reasonably drawn from the existing data, and which important questions are still open. In so doing it provides a framework for future investigations of surface-noise processes.

description: This paper studies regional productive performance differentials among 243 NUTS-2 European regions for the period 2003–11. Within the last two decades the technology gap between European regions has increased considerably. Building on previous studies that have used data envelopment analysis (DEA) and which have neglected national production structures and pre-existing technological heterogeneity, we examine differences in regional productive performance by using a meta-frontier framework. Our findings confirm significant differences in productive performance across European regions and a large North–South technology gap. A panel vector autoregression (PVAR) shows that this regional technology gap can be attributed to differences in human capital and innovation activity.

description: This paper investigates persistence in entrepreneurship across Italian provinces over the period 1927–2017. We distinguish between a ‘general’ dimension (sociopsychological) and a ‘specific’ dimension (learning) of the role model effect. Based on data obtained from a comprehensive survey conducted in 1927 by the Italian National Statistical Institute, we find different drivers of persistence across sectors: the only driver of persistence in high-technology sectors is the share of entrepreneurs using motive power (‘specific’ role model effect), while the share of industrial entrepreneurs (‘general’ role model effect) is an important driver of persistence in low-technology manufacturing and service sectors.

description: The relationship between regional innovation and foreign direct investment (FDI) has been extensively examined, but the impact of regional innovation on FDI retention has received scant attention. Drawing on the logic of place-based approaches, the paper investigates this impact by conducting survival analyses on data collected across 31 provinces of China. We find that regional technician supply (RTS) and regional intellectual property flexibility (RIPF) help regions retain foreign ventures. However, RTS is less likely to retain the foreign investments of multinational enterprises with large research and development expenditure, while RIPF is more likely to retain them. Theoretical and policy implications are discussed.

description: This paper analyses the effect of the macroeconomic efficiency of Cohesion Policy on within-country economic cohesion as reflected by various measures of sigma convergence by applying macroeconomic HERMIN models for the Czech, Polish and Slovak regions. The results reveal that from 2021 to 2027, Cohesion Policy will have a relatively small impact on within-country convergence. More importantly, Cohesion Policy seems to be doomed to fail in terms of reducing within-country disparities in the long run; that is, the structural differences among regional economies effectively prevent European Union support from narrowing the development gap between regions.

Description. Male (Fig. 37 A). Length 4.06 mm. Head slightly wider than long, HL 0.73 mm, HW 0.81 mm; anterolateral genal projections (Fig. 38 C) distinct, anterior margin slightly sinuate; median sulcus between antennal tubercles short; scapes (Fig. 38 B) slightly angularly expanded at lateral margins; clubs (Fig. 38 A) formed by apical three moderately enlarged antennomeres; venter with thin lateral spines (Fig. 38 D). Maxillary palpomeres II stout, widest at middle. Each eye composed of about 50 facets. Pronotum slightly longer than wide, PL 0.79 mm, PW 0.73 mm. Elytra wider than long, EL 1.02 mm, EW 1.52 mm; shallow discal striae reaching apical 3/4 of elytral length. Protrochanters and profemora (Fig. 38 E) each with one long ventral spine, protibiae (Fig. 38 F) simple, mesotrochanters (Fig. 38 G) each with conspicuously long ventral spine, mesotibiae (Fig. 38 H) with row of preapical denticles; tarsomeres II normal, not extending to beneath tarsomeres III. Abdomen large, AL 1.52 mm, AW 1.02 mm, tergite IV (first visible tergite) lacking median carina, lacking lateral discal carinae, replaced by pair of obliquely placed incisions; tergite V lacking median carina. Sternite IX (Fig. 38 I) with well-sclerotized apical half, and moderately sclerotized basal half. AeL 0.75 mm; aedeagus (Figs 38 J–L) median lobe strongly asymmetric, left half greatly protruding apicad to form broad apical lobe; endophallus composed of one broad and elongate membranous lamina with strongly curved sclerite attached on its apical portion, and one well elongate sclerite beside lamina.
Female. Unknown.
Differential diagnosis. This is the only species of the H. centralis group known to occur outside China. The large size of the body, in combination with the transverse head, the extremely long ventral spine of the mesotrochanters, and the aedeagus with a broad apical projection readily separate this species from all Chinese congeners of the group.
Distribution. Thailand: Chiang Mai (Map 4).
Collection notes. Unknown.
Etymology. This species is dedicated to Peter Schwendinger, an arachnologist of MHNG, who collected the holotype and many other specimens treated in the present study.

description: This paper evaluates the role of related variety in the industrial resilience of US counties against the 2008 economic shock. We use employment data on six-digit industries and measure industrial resilience by the extent to which a county maintained or improved entry rates of new industrial specializations in the post-crisis period of 2009–14 as compared with 2002–07. We find that metropolitan counties are more resilient than other types of areas. Related variety exhibits a strong positive effect on industrial resilience. This effect appears to be driven by intermediate and rural counties, which particularly benefit from related variety.

description: Layered oxysulfide LaCuSO (x = 0-0.03) was prepared to elucidate the effect of Cu off-stoichiometry on their electrical and thermal transport properties. Electrical resistivity drastically decreases down from ~10^5 ohmcm to ~10^-1 ohmcm as a result of Cu deficiency (x = 0.01) at 300 K. Thermal conductivity of the samples at 300 K, which is dominated by lattice components, is estimated to be 2.3(3) Wm^-1K^-1. Stoichiometric LaCuSO has an optical band gap of 3.1 eV, while broad optical absorption at photon energies of approximately 2.1 eV was observed for Cu-deficient samples. Density functional theory calculation suggests that these broad absorption structures probably originate from the in-gap states generated by the sulfur vacancies created to compensate the charge imbalance due to Cu off-stoichiometry. These results clearly demonstrate that Cu deficiency plays a crucial role in determining the electrical transport properties of Cu-based p-type transparent semiconductors.

description: We present a new analysis of HST, Spitzer telescope imaging and VLT imaging and spectroscopic data of a bright lensed galaxy at $z$=1.0334 in the lensing cluster Abell~2667. Using this high-resolution imaging we present an updated lens model that allows us to fully understand the lensing geometry and reconstruct the lensed galaxy in the source plane. This giant arc gives a unique opportunity to peer into the structure of a high-redshift disk galaxy. We find that the lensed galaxy of Abell 2667 is a typical spiral galaxy with morphology similar to the structure of its counterparts at higher redshift $z\sim 2$. The surface brightness of the reconstructed source galaxy in the z$_{850}$ band reveals the central surface brightness $I(0)=20.28\pm0.22$ mag arcsec$^{-2}$ and the characteristic radius $r_s=2.01\pm0.16$ kpc at redshift $z \sim 1$. The morphological reconstruction in different bands shows obvious negative radial color gradients for this galaxy. Moreover, the redder central bulge tends to contain a metal-rich stellar population, rather than being heavily reddened by dust due to high and patchy obscuration. We analyze the VIMOS/IFU spectroscopic data and find that, in the given wavelength range ($\sim 1800-3200$ Å), the combined arc spectrum of the source galaxy is characterized by a strong continuum emission with strong UV absorption lines (FeII and MgII) and shows the features of a typical starburst Wolf-Rayet galaxy NGC5253. More specifically, we have measured the EWs of FeII and MgII lines in the Abell 2667 spectrum, and obtained similar values for the same wavelength interval of the NGC5253 spectrum. Marginal evidence for CIII] 1909 emission at the edge of the grism range further confirms our expectation.

description: By using stochastic frontier analysis, single- and multiple-output methods, this paper empirically investigates the efficiency of Italian regions in providing public primary and secondary education for the period 2011–18. The analysis detects strong interregional differences, outlining a clear North–South geographical pattern. To single out the reasons for the poor performance of Southern regions, context variables (per capita gross domestic product, poverty, institutional quality, adult education) are considered and shown to be highly relevant in shaping regional efficiency. Finally, when interregional disparities in socio-economic factors are accounted for, no residual geographical pattern in regional efficiency emerges.

description: Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of diplopia and cranial nerve palsies in a group of consecutive patients presenting with suspected compressive optic neuropathy. Methods: Fifty patients aged 17 to 93 years diagnosed with a brain tumour and possible compressive optic neuropathy were referred to an outpatient orthoptic clinic. The orthoptic investigation included an ocular motility assessment to determine the characteristics of the problems reported. All patients presented with a diagnosed brain tumour and possible compressive optic neuropathy. Results: Thirteen patients (26%) presented with complaints of diplopia pre-operatively and a cranial nerve palsy was found in 8 of these patients (61.5%) and all were male. This result was statistically significant (χ² =<0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence of cranial nerve palsy found in this cohort of participants was consistent with some of the literature. Interestingly only males with compressive optic neuropathy were affected with cranial nerve palsy. It was not possible, however, to identify a causal factor in this study.

description: We study tree games developed recently by Matteo Mio as a game interpretation of the probabilistic $μ$-calculus. With expressive power comes complexity. Mio showed that tree games are able to encode Blackwell games and, consequently, are not determined under deterministic strategies. We show that non-stochastic tree games with objectives recognisable by so-called game automata are determined under deterministic, finite memory strategies. Moreover, we give an elementary algorithmic procedure which, for an arbitrary regular language L and a finite non-stochastic tree game with a winning objective L decides if the game is determined under deterministic strategies.

description: The UK government has committed to ‘levelling up’ regional economic performance. Through deriving geographically disaggregated estimates of total factor productivity from plant-level data, we show that the productivity advantage of London is far greater than differences between other regions. Evidence is then provided on the extent to which differences in multinational ownership, trade involvement, enterprise structure, plant age, research and development, subsidization, size, and industrial structure explain the London productivity advantage. Less than half can be explained by these characteristics, which suggests that they should not be the main focus of policy to reduce spatial productivity differentials.

description: From bone and wood to concrete and carbon fibre, composites are ubiquitous natural and engineering materials. Eshelby's inclusion theory describes how macroscopic stress fields couple to isolated microscopic inclusions, allowing prediction of a composite's bulk mechanical properties from a knowledge of its microstructure. It has been extended to describe a wide variety of phenomena from solid fracture to cell adhesion. Here, we show experimentally and theoretically that Eshelby's theory breaks down for small liquid inclusions in a soft solid. In this limit, an isolated droplet's deformation is strongly size-dependent with the smallest droplets mimicking the behaviour of solid inclusions. Furthermore, in opposition to the predictions of conventional composite theory, we find that finite concentrations of small liquid inclusions enhance the stiffness of soft solids. A straight-forward extension of Eshelby's theory, accounting for the surface tension of the solid-liquid interface, explains our experimental observations. The counterintuitive effect of liquid-stiffening of solids is expected whenever droplet radii are smaller than an elastocapillary length, given by the ratio of the surface tension to Young's modulus of the solid matrix.

description: We study the interplay of both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings (SOCs) and a uniform perpendicular magnetic field $\textbf{B}$ on the transport of a spin-polarized electron along a curved quantum wire. Eigenenergies and eigenfunctions of the system were analytically solved in the presence of both SOCs for a confinement radius $R$. From the transmission coefficients, the spin transport properties such as spin polarization, probability current density and spin conductance were computed numerically to determine their dependence on the SOCs, $\textbf{B}$ and $R$. We find the condition for $\textbf{B}$ that if it is beyond $R^{1/3}$, no spin reversal will occur. Our results show that for a sufficiently large SOC strength, regardless of its inversion asymmetry origin, the effect of the external magnetic field is reduced. Finding the optimal effective SOC strength is essential in achieving suitable magneto-transport properties for possible spintronic device applications.
