description: In this paper we construct the two component supersymmetric generalized Harry Dym equation which is integrable and study various properties of this model in the bosonic limit. In particular, in the bosonic limit we obtain a new integrable system which, under a hodograph transformation, reduces to a coupled three component system. We show how the Hamiltonian structure transforms under a hodograph transformation and study the properties of the model under a further reduction to a two component system. We find a third Hamiltonian structure for this system (which has been shown earlier to be a bi-Hamiltonian system) making this a genuinely tri-Hamiltonian system. The connection of this system to the modified dispersive water wave equation is clarified. We also study various properties in the dispersionless limit of our model.

description: Factor analysis refers to a statistical model in which observed variables are conditionally independent given fewer hidden variables, known as factors, and all the random variables follow a multivariate normal distribution. The parameter space of a factor analysis model is a subset of the cone of positive definite matrices. This parameter space is studied from the perspective of computational algebraic geometry. Gröbner bases and resultants are applied to compute the ideal of all polynomial functions that vanish on the parameter space. These polynomials, known as model invariants, arise from rank conditions on a symmetric matrix under elimination of the diagonal entries of the matrix. Besides revealing the geometry of the factor analysis model, the model invariants also furnish useful statistics for testing goodness-of-fit.

Year: 1979

description: Vorgelegt wird eine Quartärbasiskarte im Maßstab 1 : 500 000, die etwa 25 000 km² des mittleren und nördlichen Niedersachsens umfaßt. Die Quartärbasis erscheint als stark gegliedertes Relief, bedingt durch bis über 400 m unter NN in das Präquartär eingeschnittene Rinnen, in denen das Quartär maximal etwa 500 m mächtig werden kann. Einige Rinnen lassen sich über 100 km weit verfolgen. Verlauf und Form der Rinnen werden durch den Untergrund modifiziert. Die Rinnenfüllung besteht überwiegend aus Schmelzwassersedimenten sowie vor allem im Unterelbe-Unterweserbereich aus glazilimnischen Schluffen und Tonen, wovon der hangende Teil dem Spätelsterzeitlichen Lauenburger Ton zuzuordnen ist. Die Überlagerung durch marine und limnische holsteinzeitliche Sedimente (die holsteinzeitliche Kieselgur der Lüneburger Heide ist in auffälliger Weise an die Rinnen gebunden) gibt eine eindeutige stratigraphische Hangendgrenze. Grundmoräne kommt in den Rinnen relativ selten vor. Das elsterzeitliche Alter der Rinnen kann durch Geschiebezählungen nachgewiesen werden. Die aus nordischem Material bestehende Rinnenfüllung schließt eine Entstehung durch südliche Flußläufe aus. Dafür spricht auch, daß die Rinnen den Fuß der Mittelgebirge nicht erreichen. Form und Verlauf der Rinnen (Übertiefungen, steiles Gefälle und Flankenneigungen bis max. 70°) sprechen für subglazial ausgetiefle Strukturen, wobei wegen des starken Zurücktretens von Grundmoräne in tieferen Rinnenabschnitten dem Gletscherschurf nur eine untergeordnete, der subglazialen Schmelzwassertätigkeit dagegen eine dominierende Rolle zubemessen wird.

description: Problem Diversified crop rotations can help to support the agroecological transition of cropping systems. However, most crop diversity indicators currently available only consider crop rotation length. Evaluating the ecosystem services provided by diversified rotations requires the consideration of additional criteria, e.g. crop species and sequence. Solution We have developed a global crop diversity indicator addressing both temporal and spatial diversity. The temporal diversity consists of an assessment of taxonomic diversity (assessed by an inverted Simpson index) and of the functional diversity through an indicator linked to 12 ecosystem services (ES). The spatial diversity depends only on strip width.
Gran Paradiso — Mont Blanc: Prähistorische und historische Gletscherstände

description: Das Untersuchungsgebiet umfaßt die westlichen und südlichen Teile der Aosta-Region vom Hauptkamm der M. Blanc-Gruppe bis zum nach N entwässernden Teil der Paradiso-Gruppe. Die Untergrenze bildet das Moränengebiet von Aymavilles-Sarre, etwa 5, km westlich Aosta. Verfolgt werden die durch Moränen gekennzeichneten Gletscherstände vom „Aymavilles" (= „Gschnitz") bis zur Gegenwart und die Vermessungsergebnisse ab 1929—31 (Karte 1 : 25 000); die letzten genaueren Höhenwerte liegen für 1950—53 vor. Moränen aus historischer Zeit gibt es etwa von 1600, 1680, 1770, 1820, 1860 und 1920. Nur wenige Gletscher weisen deutliche noch jüngere Moränen auf. Tiefliegende Moränen aus dem 17. und 18. Jahrh. lassen sich leider nicht immer eindeutig einem der drei Stände dieses Zeitraumes zuordnen. Innerhalb der bisher als „Courmayeur" bezeichneten und dem „Daun" gleichgesetzten Moränen kann man deutlich zwei Gruppen unterscheiden. Es wird deshalb vorgeschlagen, die Bezeichnung „Courmayeur" durch zwei neue Lokalnamen aus der Umgebung von Cogne, „Epinel" (= „Daun") und „Valnontey" (= „Egesen"), zu ersetzen. Zum Schluß wird versucht, die Geschichte der Gletscher im Untersuchungsgebiet kurz darzustellen.

Über das Altpleistozän und die Flußterrassen im Gebiet des mittleren Tibers

Publisher: name: Geozon Science Media
Year: 1963

description: Die Petrographie und die Fazies der altpleistozänen Schichten am mittleren Tiber werden beschrieben. Nach der Parallelisierung der Vorkommen liegt eine fluviatile Schotterfolge im allgemeinen über dem in Asti- und Piacenza-Fazies entwickelten marinen Oberpliozän. Die Schotterfolge wird überlagert von limnischen Sedimenten, die geringmächtige Braunkohlenflöze führen. Im Liegenden der limnischen Schichten sind lokal die marinen Ablagerungen der Kalabrischen Ingression eingeschaltet. Im Hangenden der limnischen Schichten sind vulkanische Tuffe und Laven und fluviatile Schotter ausgebildet. Die genannten altpleistozänen Schichten werden von mächtigen weitausgedehnten Travertinen bedeckt. Es wird versucht, die auskartierten Schichten nach Fazies und Fossilinhalt Kalt- und Warmzeiten zuzuordnen und so in das stratigraphische System des Quartärs einzustufen. Es wurden drei Terrassen festgestellt, die von der Paglia-Mündung gegen das Becken von Rom an Auenabstand verlieren und schließlich unter die holozänen Sedimente der Flußaue abtauchen. Die Konvergenz der Terrassen zeigt eine tektonische Hebung des Gebietes am mittleren Tiber und eine Absenkung des Beckens von Rom an. Die Oberflächen der beiden älteren Terrassen sind von Travertin und vulkanischem Tuff bedeckt; die jüngste Terrasse ist frei von diesen Bildungen. Der Einfluß der tektonischen, klimatischen und thalassostatischen Faktoren auf die Terrassenbildung wird diskutiert, und es wird versucht, die Terrassen in das stratigraphische System des Quartärs einzuordnen.

description: Coffee production has been at the core of farm family livelihoods in Rwanda for many generations. Today it remains a primary source of cash income for over 355,000 households across the country (NAEB 2016b). Since 2001, the coffee value chain has enjoyed a renaissance and has emerged as the darling of specialty coffee markets and consumers around the globe. The processing side of the sector has thrived with the construction of 245 privately and cooperatively funded washing stations in every coffee growing region of the country. Dry mills and export companies, both domestic and international, have likewise opened for business. There has been tremendous value added in the industry’s transformation.

We evaluate the effective coupling constants, predicting a B$(0^+)$ to B $π$ width of around 160 MeV. Our result for the coupling strength adds to the evidence that the B$_s(0^+)$ meson is not predominantly a molecular state (BK).

description: Ditopic N-donor ligands with terminal 4-pyridyl groups are omnipresent in coordination-based selfassembly. The utilization of ligands with 3-pyridyl donor groups is significantly less common, because the intrinsic conformational flexibility of these ligands tends to favor the formation of small aggregates. Here, we show that large Pd6L12 12+ cages can be obtained by reaction of Pd(II) salts with metallo-ligands L bearing terminal 3-pyridyl groups. The easy-to-access metallo-ligands contain an Fe(II) clathrochelate core. These sterically demanding clathrochelate complexes prevent the formation of smaller aggregates, which is observed for less bulky analogous building blocks. The cages were shown to bind BF4 and BPh4 anions in aqueous solvent mixtures, whilst the lateral size of the clathrochelate significantly affects their guest encapsulation behavior.

description: Herpes B virus (or Herpesvirus simiae or Macacine herpesvirus 1) is endemic in many populations of macaques, both in the wild and in captivity. The virus elicits only mild clinical symptoms (if any) in monkeys, but can be transmitted by various routes, most commonly via bites, to humans where it causes viral encephalitis with a high mortality rate. Hence, herpes B constitutes a considerable occupational hazard for animal caretakers, veterinarians and laboratory personnel. Efforts are therefore being made to reduce the risk of zoonotic infection and to improve prognosis after accidental exposure. Among the measures envisaged are serological surveillance of monkey colonies and specific diagnosis of herpes B zoonosis against a background of antibodies recognizing the closely related human herpes simplex virus (HSV). 422 pentadecapeptides covering, in an overlapping fashion, the entire amino acid sequences of herpes B proteins gB and gD were synthesized and immobilized on glass slides. Antibodies present in monkey sera that bind to subsets of the peptide collection were detected by microserological techniques. With 42 different rhesus macaque sera, 114 individual responses to 18 different antibody target regions (ATRs) were recorded, 17 of which had not been described earlier. This finding may pave the way for a peptide-based, herpes B specific serological diagnostic test.

description: In this paper, we give explicit exponential estimates $\displaystyle |x(t)|\leq M e^{ -γ(t-t_0) }$, where $t\geq t_0$, $M>0$, for solutions of a linear scalar delay differential equation $$ \dot{x}(t)+\sum_{k=1}^m b_k(t)x(h_k(t))=f(t),~~ t\geq t_0,~ x(t)=ϕ(t),~t\leq t_0. $$ We consider two different cases: when $γ>0$ (corresponding to exponential stability) and the case of $γ<0$ when the solution is, generally, growing. In the first case, together with the exponential estimate, we also obtain an exponential stability test, in the second case we get estimation for solution growth. Here both the coefficients and the delays are measurable, not necessarily continuous.

description: Folgende Hypothese wird als Ausgangssituation dieser Arbeit gestellt: Eltern mit einem Mig-rationshintergrund, deren Kind mit einer schweren Mehrfachbehinderung in eine Sonder-schule geht, brauchen spezielle Beratung, unter anderem zu Partizipation. Es wird davon ausgegangen, dass Partizipation in anderen Ländern anders aussehen oder gewichtet wer-den könnte, als es in der Schweiz der Fall ist. Mithilfe einer Feldforschung wird dieser Behauptung nachgegangen und untersucht, ob Par-tizipation in einem anderen Land, in diesem Fall Rumänien, tatsächlich anders aussieht und falls ja, ob dies Auswirkung haben könnte und Eltern aufgrund von allfällig hervorgerufenen Irritationen über die Schweizer Umsetzung eine spezielle Beratung benötigen. Eine theoretische Auseinandersetzung mit Partizipation sowie Beratung von Eltern mit ei-nem Migrationshintergrund bestätigen die Erkenntnisse aus der Feldforschung, dass es tat-sächlich hilfreich sein kann, Eltern mit einem Migrationshintergrund bezüglich Partizipation gezielt zu beraten. Abgeleitet aus der Feldforschung sowie der Theorie, wurden Themen herausgearbeitet, wel-che in einer Beratung durch Schulische Heilpädagoginnen und Heilpädagogen für ein besse-res gegenseitiges Verständnis bezüglich Partizipation und deren Umsetzung nützlich sein könnten.
Petrographical and petrophysical properties of sandstones: statistical analysis as an approach to predict material behaviour and construction suitability
Creators: name: Stück, H.
name: Koch, R.
name: Siegesmund, S.
Publisher: name: Springer-Verlag
Year: 2012

description: Most studies dealing with material properties of sandstones are based on a small data set. The present study utilizes petrographical and petrophysical data from 22 selected sandstones and ~300 sandstones from the literature to estimate/predict the material and weathering behaviour of characteristic sandstones. Composition and fabric properties were determined from detailed thin section analyses. Statistical methods applied consist of data distributions with whisker plots and linear regression with confidence regions for the petrophysical and weathering properties. To identify similarities between individual sandstones and to define groups of specific sandstone types, principal component and cluster analyses were applied. The results confirm an interaction between the composition, depositional environment, stratigraphic association and diagenesis, which leads to a particular material behaviour of sandstones. Three different types of pore radii distributions are observed, whereby each is derived from different pore space modifications during diagenesis and is associated with specific sandstone types: (1) bimodal with a maximum in capillary and micropores, (2) unimodal unequal with a maximum in smaller capillary pores and (3) unimodal equable with a maximum in larger capillary pores. Each distribution shows specific dependencies to water absorption, salt loading and hygric dilatation. The strength–porosity relationship shows dependence on the content of unstable lithic fragments, grain contact and type of pore radii distribution, cementation and degree of alteration. Sandstones showing a maximum of capillary pores and micropores (bimodal) exhibit a distinct hygric dilatation and low salt resistance. These sandstones are highly immature sublitharenites–litharenites, characterized by altered unstable rock fragments, which show pointed-elongated grain contacts, and some pseudomatrix. Quartz arenites and sublitharenites–litharenites which are strongly compacted and cemented, show unimodal unequal pore radii distributions, low porosity, high strength and a high salt resistance. The presence of swellable clay minerals in sublitharenites–litharenites leads to a medium to high hygric dilatation, whereas quartz arenites show little hygric dilatation. Sandstones with unimodal equal pore radii distribution mostly belong to weakly compacted and cemented mature quartz arenites. These are characterized by high water absorption and high porosity, low to medium strength and a low salt resistance. The data compiled in this study are used to create a sandstone quality catalogue. Since material properties are dependent on many different parameters of influence, the transition between different lithotypes is fluent.

Observations on Astraeospongium meniscum (Roemer, 1948) from the Silurian of western Tennessee; constructional morphology and palaeobiology of the Astraeospongiidae (Calcarea, Heteractinellidae)
Creators: name: Mehl, Dorte

Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 1996

description: Astraeospongium is found to form secondary calcareous basal skeletons and thus may be attributed to the morphological grouping "coralline sponges". In A. meniscum, a bowl-shaped sponge with a massive skeleton of octactins, the ontogenetically youngest and still uncemented spicules are found at the upper, concave surface, particularly close to the edge. Towards the bottom, the spicules soon become altered through epitaxic cementation and recrystallization. From this skeletal architecture can be inferred that the soft tissues occupied only the uppermost portions of the basal skeleton. The skeletal structure is in many respects similar to that of the recent Petrobiona massiliana, although the ecological adaptations of the two species are fundamentally different.
description: Astraeospongium bildet ein sekundäres kalkiges Basalskelett und kann somit der morphologischen Gruppierung "koralline Spongien" zugerechnet werden. In A. meniscum, ein schüsseIförmiger Schwamm mit einem massiven Skelett aus Octactinen, befinden sich die ontogenetisch jüngsten und noch unzementierten Spicula an der oberen, konkaven Seite, insbesondere nahe dem Rand. Zum Basis hin ändern sich bald die Spicula durch epitaktische Zementation und Rekristallisation. Aufgrund dieser Skelettarchitektur kann geschlossen werden, daß sich der Weichkörper nur in den obersten Bereichen des Skeletts befand. Die Skelettstruktur ist der der rezenten Petrobiona massiliana in vielerlei Hinsicht ähnlich, wenngleich sich die ökologischen Anpassungen der beiden Arten grundlegend unterscheidet.

title: Cues Triggering Formation and Germination of Resting Stages in Marine Diatoms
Creators: name: Pelusi, Angela
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2019

description: The project of my PhD thesis was focused on understanding the factors that induce spore formation and germination in the marine planktonic diatom Chaetoceros socialis. Among the candidate triggers of spore formation, nitrogen depletion is the most common while light is the principal trigger of spore germination. The link between spore formation and nitrogen starvation in the natural environment is however elusive and this lead me to test other factors, such as cell crowding and viral infections, which were never tested before.

 The results of my experimental work show that nitrogen depletion is not the only factor that induces the formation of resting spores, even though it remains the most effective in laboratory experiments. Spore formation was in fact induced when nitrogen and other nutrients were still available; it was induced by culture medium conditioned by the presence of high cell density, by culture medium obtained after killing cells by sonication. This is evidence for the presence of chemical compound/s that induced the formation of spores. Moreover, spores were produced in nutrient replete cultures infected by a species-specific virus. A transcriptomic approach in which the differential expression of genes in key time points during spore formation versus the control (exponentially growing cells), provided insights on the molecular mechanisms involved in this life cycle transition.

 I evaluated the role of blue, red and white light at very low intensity (1.2 μmol m2 sec -1) below the threshold for photosynthesis and slight higher white light (20 μmol m2 sec -1) in inducing spore germination. Results showed significantly higher germination rates only at higher light levels, while low and similar germination rates although germination occurred in other conditions including the controls in the dark. This study adds new and relevant information for understanding how and why spores are formed, underlying their potential importance in population dynamics and, in turn, in the ecosystem functioning.

description: Cellular micromotion - a tiny movement of cell membranes on the nanometer-micrometer scale - has been proposed as a pathway for inter-cellular signal transduction and as a label-free proxy signal to neural activity. Here we harness several recent approaches of signal processing to detect such micromotion in video recordings of unlabeled cells. Our survey includes spectral filtering of the video signal, matched filtering, as well as 1D and 3D convolutional neural networks acting on pixel-wise time-domain data and a whole recording respectively.
On the suitability of admixing sand to metallic iron for water treatment
Creators: name: Noubactep, Chicgoua
Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 2013

description: This communication clarifies the relationships between sand addition and the sustainability of iron/water systems for environmental remediation. It is shown that any enhanced contaminant removal in an iron/sand/water relative to an iron/water system is related to the avoidance/delay of particle cementation by virtue of the inert nature of sand. The argument that sand dissolution produces protons (H+) to sustain iron corrosion is disproved by the very low dissolution kinetics solubility of SiO2-bearing minerals under environmental conditions. This demonstration corroborates the concept that aqueous contaminant removal in iron/water systems is not a process mediated by electrons from Fe0.

description: Karst aquifers are characterized by highly conductive conduit flow paths embedded in a less conductive fissured and fractured matrix, resulting in strong permeability contrasts with structured heterogeneity and anisotropy. Groundwater storage occurs predominantly in the fissured matrix. Hence, most mathematical karst models assume quasi-steady-state flow in conduits neglecting conduitassociated drainable storage (CADS). The concept of CADS considers storage volumes, where karst water is not part of the active flow system but hydraulically connected to conduits (for example karstic voids and large fractures). The disregard of conduit storage can be inappropriate when direct water abstraction from karst conduits occurs, e.g., largescale pumping. In such cases, CADS may be relevant. Furthermore, the typical fixed-head boundary condition at the karst outlet can be inadequate for water abstraction scenarios because unhampered water inflow is possible. The objective of this work is to analyze the significance of CADS and flow-limited boundary conditions on the hydraulic behavior of karst aquifers in water abstraction scenarios. To this end, the numerical discrete-continuum model MODFLOW-2005 Conduit Flow Process Mode 1 (CFPM1) is enhanced to account for CADS. Additionally, a fixed-head limited-flow (FHLQ) boundary condition is added that limits inflow from constant head boundaries to a user-defined threshold. The effects and the proper functioning of these modifications are demonstrated by simplified model studies. Both enhancements, CADS and FHLQ boundary, are shown to be useful for water abstraction scenarios within karst aquifers. An idealized representation of a large-scale pumping test in a karst conduit is used to demonstrate that the enhanced CFPM1 is able to adequately represent water abstraction processes in both the conduits and the matrix of real karst systems, as illustrated by its application to the Cent Fonts karst system.

Cenozoic Methane-Seep Faunas of the Caribbean Region.

Year: 2015

description: We report new examples of Cenozoic cold-seep communities from Colombia, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Trinidad, and Venezuela, and attempt to improve the stratigraphic dating of Cenozoic Caribbean seep communities using strontium isotope stratigraphy. Two seep faunas are distinguished in Barbados: the late Eocene mudstone-hosted 'Joes River fauna' consists mainly of large lucinid bivalves and tall abyssochrysoid gastropods, and the early Miocene carbonate-hosted 'Bath Cliffs fauna' containing the vesicomyid Pleurophopsis, the mytilid Bathymodiolus and small gastropods. Two new Oligocene seep communities from the Sinú River basin in Colombia consist of lucinid bivalves including Elongatolucina, thyasirid and solemyid bivalves, and Pleurophopsis. A new early Miocene seep community from Cuba includes Pleurophopsis and the large lucinid Meganodontia. Strontium isotope stratigraphy suggests an Eocene age for the Cuban Elmira asphalt mine seep community, making it the oldest in the Caribbean region. A new basal Pliocene seep fauna from the Dominican Republic is characterized by the large lucinid Anodontia (Pegophysema). In Trinidad we distinguish two types of seep faunas: the mudstone-hosted Godineau River fauna consisting mainly of lucinid bivalves, and the limestone-hosted Freeman's Bay fauna consisting chiefly of Pleurophopsis, Bathymodiolus, and small gastropods; they are all dated as late Miocene. Four new seep communities of Oligocene to Miocene age are reported from Venezuela. They consist mainly of large globular lucinid bivalves including Meganodontia, and moderately sized vesicomyid bivalves. After the late Miocene many large and typical 'Cenozoic' lucinid genera disappeared from the Caribbean seeps and are today known only from the central Indo-Pacific Ocean. We speculate that the increasingly oligotrophic conditions in the Caribbean Sea after the closure of the Isthmus of Panama in the Pliocene may have been unfavorable for such large lucinids because they are only facultative chemosymbiotic and need to derive a significant proportion of their nutrition from suspended organic matter.

Frugivorous bats drink nutrient- and clay-enriched water in the Amazon rain forest: support for a dual function of mineral-lick visits

description: In Central Amazonia, large mammals create water-filled puddles when consuming soil. These mineral licks are visited by pregnant and lactating frugivorous bats; possibly for two reasons. Frugivorous bats could supplement their mineral-depleted fruit diet by drinking salty water, or they could buffer dietary plant secondary compounds by consuming soil. We analysed bat fruits from Ecuador and showed that they are depleted in elemental concentrations (Na, K, P) compared with similar fruits collected from Costa Rica, where no mineral licks occur (n = 32). Analyses of water from Ecuador revealed that water samples from six mineral licks contained more physiologically relevant elements (Na, K, Mg, Ca) than four samples from river and stream water control sites (Mann–Whitney U-test). In support of the nutrient supplement hypothesis, we observed bats drinkingmineral-enriched water at these licks (video observation). Furthermore, blood collected from 68 bats differed in compositionwith respect to physiologically relevant minerals (Na, K, Mg, Fe) from that of frugivorous bats captured at control sites. To test whether frugivorous bats also consumed clay for detoxification, we checked for soil tracer elements in 31 faecal samples. Soil tracers are insoluble in water and, thus, are not included in a strict fruit diet. Bats from mineral licks showed higher aluminium soil tracer concentrations in their faeces than bat species that never visit licks, suggesting that frugivorous bats take up clay material at mineral licks. Our results provide evidence that frugivorous bats ingest soluble mineral nutrients and insoluble soil by consuming soil-enriched water at mineral licks, thus supporting the hypothesis that frugivorous bats of western Amazonia may derive a dual benefit from drinking water from mineral licks.
Comment on "Reductive dechlorination of gamma-hexachloro-cyclohexane using Fe-Pd bimetallic nanoparticles" by Nagpal et al. [J. Hazard. Mater. 175 (2010) 680-687].

description: The author used a recent article on lindane reductive dechlorination by Fe/Pd bimetallics to complain that dozen of published works in several journals are not conform to the state-of-the-art knowledge on the mechanism of aqueous contaminant removal by metallic iron (e.g. in Fe(0)/H(2)O systems). It is shown that the contribution of adsorbed Fe(II) to the process of contaminant reduction has been neglected while discussing the whole process of contaminant reduction in the presence of bimetallics.
