title: Emily Baragwanath – Mathieu de Bakker (Hgg.), Myth, Truth, and Narrative in Herodotus
Creators: name: Froehlich, Susanne
Publisher: name: De Gruyter
Year: 2024

description: Mythos und Wahrheit stehen bei Herodot in einem komplexen Verhältnis. Die in diesem Sammelband vorgelegten zwölf Beiträge, welche auf eine Konferenz des Jahres 2007 zurückgehen, zeigen Herodot als einen Autor, der zwar kunstvoll erzählen kann, dabei aber stets die Erfordernisse seiner historischen Darstellung im Auge hat, wenn er mythologische Elemente und traditionelle Erzählmuster in seine Geschichtsschreibung einbindet. „Herodotus himself can be considered the father of narrative historiography“ (V), bemerken die Herausgeber einleitend in Anspielung auf das berühmte Diktum Ciceros.

In zwei Teilen („Part I: From Myth to Historical Method“ und „Part II: Myth and History“) werden einige der einschlägigen Passagen neu beleuchtet, darunter Herodots Rezeption homerischer Mythen oder seine Darstellung von Gestalten wie Kroisos, Minos, Kyros, Deiokes, Pythios und Xerxes. Die Auswahl der im Folgenden besprochenen Beiträge impliziert keinerlei Wertung, sondern folgt allein den Interessenschwerpunkten der Rezensentin.

description: The Greater Green River Basin is a fault-bounded, structurally complex intermontane basin that is subdivided into four subbasins. Face cleats strike northeast in most of the greater basin but northwest in the Sand Wash Basin to impose permeability anisotropy on the coal beds. Major coal-bearing units are the Upper Cretaceous Mesaverde Group—primarily the Rock Springs and Williams Fork Formations—and the lower Tertiary Fort Union Formation's lower coal-bearing unit. The combined net coal thickness exceeds 300 ft (91 m); individual seams are as much as 40 ft (12.2 m) thick. Coal rank ranges from subbituminous to high-volatile A bituminous, except in deeper subbasins, where rank is medium-volatile bituminous and higher. Gas contents average less than 200 scf/ton (<6.24 m3/t) at depths of less than 6,000 ft (<1,830 m). Areas of high gas content (350 to 500 scf/ton [10.92 to 15.60 m3/t]) reflect conventional trapping of migrated thermogenic and biogenic gases and correspond to areas of flow orthogonal to flow barriers, pressure transition, and convergent, upward flow of groundwater. Regionally, groundwater flows from the basin margins to discharge eventually basinward along the boundary between hydropressure and hydrocarbon overpressure and along major river valleys. Coal and coalbed methane resources are very large: 1,276 billion short tons (1.158 billion t) and 314 Tcf (8.89 Tm3), respectively. Despite huge resources, coalbed wells drilled to date have yielded little or no gas and large volumes of water, for a basinwide cumulative gas-water ratio of approximately 20 scf/bbl (~3.6 m3/m3). Deeper drilling will be required to penetrate higher rank, higher gas content coals. For example, Mesaverde gas contents between 6,000 and 7,500 ft (1,830 and 2,286 m) are approximately 350 scf/ton (~10.92 m3/t) and exceed 500 scf/ton (15.60 m3/t) below 7,500 ft (2,286 m). Deeper drilling is justified at the northwest end of the Cedar Mountain fault system in the Sand Wash Basin, along the east margin of the Washakie Basin, and around the northeast flank of the Rock Springs Uplift. In the Fort Union Formation, the Sandy Bend Arch and the Big Piney are thought to be prospective, where structural and/or stratigraphic trapping may enhance gas contents in low-rank coals.

description: Chemical, isotopic, mineralogical, and bacteriological analyses indicate that the composition of groundwater in the vicinity of the Pantex Plant reflects distinctive sources of recharge (both natural and anthropogenic) modified by initial evaporation, sediment-water interactions, and microbial processes. As observed regionally by others, the major-ion fades are predominantly Ca-Mg-HCO3, reflecting ion exchange; dissolution of feldspars, calcite, sepiolite, palygorskite, and CO2 gas; precipitation of calcite, Na- and Ca-smectite, sepiolite, and palygorskite; exsolution of CO2 gas; and oxidation of organic carbon. Above-background concentrations of Cl- and NO3- indicate return flow of wastewater, although NO3- exceeds the drinking-water standard in only one well. NO3- concentrations tend to be limited during recharge by microbially mediated denitrification in the vadose zone beneath playas. Elevated levels of 3H and 14C indicate focused recharge beneath both playas and ditches. Focused recharge is also indicated by values of δD and δ18O that are enriched beneath playas. The coincidence of plots of δD versus δ18O with local seasonal meteoric water lines suggests minimal evaporation, which may reflect episodic recharge or recharge along preferential pathways. Depleted δD and δ18O of H2O and enriched δ13C of dissolved inorganic carbon indicate some diffuse infiltration to perched aquifers in interplaya areas, although the timing of such recharge is uncertain. Dissolved Si and 14C provide evidence of percolation from the perched aquifers to the Ogallala aquifer beneath the Pantex Plant.

description: We analyze the handshake protocol of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, version 1.3. We address both the full TLS 1.3 handshake (the one round-trip time mode, with signatures for authentication and (elliptic curve) Diffie–Hellman ephemeral ((EC)DHE) key exchange), and the abbreviated resumption/“PSK” mode which uses a pre-shared key for authentication (with optional (EC)DHE key exchange and zero round-trip time key establishment). Our analysis in the reductionist security framework uses a multi-stage key exchange security model, where each of the many session keys derived in a single TLS 1.3 handshake is tagged with various properties (such as unauthenticated versus unilaterally authenticated versus mutually authenticated, whether it is intended to provide forward security, how it is used in the protocol, and whether the key is protected against replay attacks). We show that these TLS 1.3 handshake protocol modes establish session keys with their desired security properties under standard cryptographic assumptions.

description: The present study introduces the initial steps of an analytical model designed toestimate the tonal noise generated by coaxial contra-rotating propellers, with a particularemphasis on their application in progressing technologies like drones and Urban Air Vehicles(UAVs). The model can utilize empirical data as input, but the study highlights the valueof utilizing unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (uRANS) simulations to account forthe complex aerodynamic interactions inherent in contra-rotating systems. The main mechanismsthat have been identified in the literature can be categorized as potential or viscousinteractions. The potential interactions are related to the potential displacement of fluid dueto the blade passage, and the viscous interactions correspond to the wake and tip-vortex impingementon the downstream blade. The study focuses the latter mechanism on a specifictest case employing two open propellers, and it considers the noise introduced by tip-vortexinteractions. The reliability of the model is evaluated by comparing its predictions with numericalsimulations and experimental data aimed at mapping the interaction region betweenthe two propellers.

description: This report documents an assessment of Midcontinent sandstone natural gas reservoirs in Boonsville (Bend Conglomerate Gas) field by integrating four key disciplines: geology, geophysics, reservoir engineering, and petrophysics. Pressure and production data confirm the existence of compartmented or poorly drained gas throughout much of the Bend Conglomerate and suggest that additional gas will be found when well spacing is reduced to 80 acres, although multiple stacked completion opportunities will typically be needed to ensure the economic viability of new infield wells. As part of this analysis, the Lower Atoka Group was divided into 13 third-order genetic sequences, and to our knowledge, this is the first public, comprehensive genetic sequence analysis that relates these Pennsylvanian reservoirs to their seismic response and to gas productivity. A 26-mi², 3-D seismic survey was done to test methods for reservoir delineation in thin-bed, hard-rock environments and identified a previously unknown structural component of reservoir compartmentalization in the form of low-displacement faulting commonly associated with karst collapse in deeper carbonate rocks. These karst collapse features extend vertically as much as 2,500 ft and may be a widespread influence on the deposition of younger sediments in the Midcontinent. The ability of the 3-D survey to define stratigraphic entrapments was more variable. Some sequences were imaged quite well, and seismic attribute analyses provided excellent agreement with net reservoir distributions generated from sequence stratigraphic interpretations. In other instances, individual systems tracts and reservoir sandstones that were subsets of genetic sequences proved difficult to trace precisely in the 3-D data, especially when those units were associated with a subtle impedance contrast or were extremely thin.

description: This report outlines the activities conducted by the Bureau of Economic Geology (BEG) during Fiscal Year (FY) 2009 for the National Coal Resources Data System State Cooperative Program (NCRDS project). Continuing the sampling strategy initiated in the previous fiscal year for measured vitrinite-reflectance (Ro) determination, this report focuses on collecting oil- and gas-shale samples from the Upper Cretaceous (Cenomanian—Turonian) Eagle Ford Shale in Texas. While in FY2008, Eagle Ford samples were obtained from the Rio Grande Embayment and associated Maverick Basin in the southern part of the Eagle Ford play area, this year's samples primarily come from the San Marcos Arch to the north in south-central Texas (Fig. 1). In recent years, explorationists and producers in the gas-shale industry have expanded their activities beyond the Maverick Basin, with the San Marcos Arch area showing increasing interest and exploration. Gas-shale samples have been collected from whole cores of the Eagle Ford Shale from seven wells located in Frio, DeWitt, Gonzales, Guadalupe, Caldwell, and Brazos Counties (Fig. 1). These samples have been sent to Dr. James Hower of the University of Kentucky for measured vitrinite-reflectance (Ro) analysis. The precise geographic location of each sampled shale is identified using GIS applications.

description: Arsenic concentrations exceed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency maximum contaminant level (MCL) for drinking water (10 μg/L) in 220 Public Water Systems in Texas. Conventional treatments for arsenic removal are ex-situ treatments, which are costly and produce high concentration arsenic-contaminated sludge which must be disposed of properly. A pilot study to assess an in-situ arsenic remediation treatment was conducted in the city of Andrews wellfield, Andrews County, Texas. This procedure involved adding dissolved iron to the aquifer through water wells. Under oxidizing conditions, the dissolved iron precipitates as iron oxides near the well. Water pumped from the well following iron precipitation flows through the iron-enriched zone and arsenic is adsorbed onto the iron oxides. Two experiments were conducted in which 24 g and 72 g of Fe were injected into an experimental well. Prior to the experiments, arsenic concentration in the well water was 43 μg/L. Following the first experiment, arsenic concentration in produced water stabilized at 25 Î¼g/L, and after the second experiment arsenic values stabilized at 20 μg/L, representing an approximate 50% reduction in produced arsenic under the test conditions. These preliminary results suggest that there is potential for treating groundwater arsenic contamination in small public water systems using in situ treatment based on addition of iron to the wells. The reconnaissance tests showed a 50% reduction in arsenic concentration; however, additional testing is required to determine if arsenic concentrations can be reduced to less than the MCL of 10 mg/L and the frequency and volume (mass) of treatment injections required to maintain these low arsenic concentrations needs to be determined for full demand production rates.

description: Phase I regional geologic characterization found that in the Gulf Coast, abundant geologic sequestration targets are found in many areas. The idea of stacked storage, developed for the current (Phase II) study, included the use of multiple hydrologically isolated injection zones beneath a common surface area to produce large capacity yet minimize the monitoring infrastructure footprint and increase public acceptance. Stacked zones include the use of CO2 for enhanced oil production (EOR), which was the focus of the Phase II study. An EOR project provided an opportunity to monitor injection at a higher rate and over a more prolonged injection period than an earlier test in brine (Frio Brine Pilot). The downdip water leg of the same field was then used for Phase III to assess geologic storage capacity beyond the use of CO2 for EOR (Hovorka and others, 2010). At the end of the regional study of options, the site selected was a four-way structural closure at a depth of 10,300 ft (3100 m) below the surface at Cranfield, Mississippi. The field produced oil, gas condensate, and methane gas from the lower Tuscaloosa Formation "D-E" sandstones during the period 1944 through 1966. The field was then pressure depleted and wells plugged and abandoned. The field was purchased by Denbury Onshore, LLC, to be flooded with large volumes of CO2 transported via pipeline from CO2 produced from a geologic accumulation at Jackson Dome, Mississippi. Project design focused on coordination of the monitoring design with Denbury's commercial plans for injection, infrastructure development, and permitting in the Phase II area on the north side of Cranfield field. Phase II provided an opportunity to test innovative monitoring approaches that may be needed in the future to document that either EOR or brine storage is performing correctly in terms of permanence of storage (Hovorka and others, 2010). Injection started July 15, 2008, in 2 wells but increased over the study period to 16 wells over an area of several square miles. Half the wells were updip injectors at the gas-oil contact, and half were downdip injectors injecting CO2 at the oil-water contact. The monitored injection was commercial (½ million metric tons per year) scale, and was sustained over a multiyear time frame, with the end of the Phase II project defined as September 30, 2010. In the report period, 23,640 MMSCF (1,229,510 metric tons) of CO2 was stored under Phase II. Injection and monitoring continued in the Phase II area; however, these were logistically connected to ongoing Phase III injection, which was conducted on the east side of Cranfield.

description: Geologic models of the northern platform of Sacroc have been constructed over several years (2001–present) by the Reservoir Characterization Research Laboratory (RCRL). These models show a complex stratigraphy of deposition, exposure (diagenesis), and erosion. Canyon units were deposited as depositional cycles, and the latest Canyon cycles have been heavily eroded. The Cisco units are composed of debris flows, biohermal buildups, and grain-dominated units representing many significant sea-level changes, culminating in a major exposure event before being engulfed in carbonate muds of Wolfcamp age. Geologic models have been converted to petrophysical models by RCRL using the rock fabric method. Porosity-permeability transforms have been defined for each stratigraphic unit using core data and thin-section analyses. Geologic models have been converted to porosity and permeability models using these transforms. Kinder Morgan has initiated a CO2 flood in the northern platform area. The company's injection program has uncovered numerous intervals in which the rate of injection is significantly higher than expected from the petrophysical model. These intervals are referred to as void space conduits by Kinder Morgan and as thief zones in this report. The problem facing Kinder Morgan is that the large volume of injected fluid taken by thief zones significantly decreases the volume of remaining-oil saturation contacted by injected fluids, resulting in poor recovery. This report summarizes efforts to explain the geological and petrophysical nature of these thief zones through an exhaustive study of core and log data from well 37-11. Thief zones are defined as having significantly higher flow rates than expected from matrix properties. At Sacroc, these zones are located by injection profiles, and the injection profile from 37-11 shows high variability in injection volume. Using core data, we calculated kh values for each perforated interval, as well for each injection and no-injection interval within each set of perforations. A positive relationship between kh and water injection is assumed. Unfortunately, in 37-11 only a polymer injection profile was available for this study. A positive relationship between kh and polymer injection is probably true as well.

description: In Spring 2012, we undertook an update of the hydraulic fracturing sections of the TWDB-sponsored report titled “Current and Projected Water Use in the Texas Mining and Oil and Gas Industry” that we published in June 2011 (Nicot et al., 2011). The 2011 report provided estimated county-level water use in the oil and gas industry in 2008 and projections to 2060. This 2012 update was prompted by two main events: (1) a major shift of the oil and gas industry from gas to oil production, displacing production centers across the state and impacting county-level amounts; (2) rapid development of technological advances, resulting in more common reuse and in the ability to use more brackish water. The timely update was enabled by a faster than anticipated development, translating into abundant statistical data sets from which to derive projections, and by an increased willingness of the industry to participate in providing detailed information about water use in its operations. This document follows the same methodology as the 2011 report but differs from it in two ways. Our current update clearly distinguishes between water use and water consumption. The 2011 report does not include reuse from neighboring hydraulic fracturing jobs, recycling from other industry operations or other treatment plants, and use of brackish water. Our update also presents three scenarios: high, low, and most likely water use and consumption with a focus on water consumption. This update has been reviewed by the TWDB and should supersede oil and gas industry projections from the 2011 report.

Evidence from Firm-level Survey Data, published in The World Economy (2013). In this paper she uses firm-level data from Turkey. The pure replication performed here that is based on a sample that differs only marginally from the sample used in the original study is successful. In addition to the pure replication I use firm-level data for Egypt from a highly similar survey. The most important result found by Abel-Koch for Turkey - a negative relationship between firm size and the intensity of use of intermediaries in exports - is found for Egypt, too. Results for the link between other firm characteristics and indirect exports via intermediaries, however, often turn out to be different.

description: Sie gehen "auf Bärenjagd an der Neva, wie sie auf Tigerjagd am Ganges gehen". So charakterisierte ein Zeitgenosse im Jahre 1844 die Briten in Russland. Tatsächlich entstand der Eindruck, die Briten verstünden es, ein von der russischen Umwelt weitgehend unberührtes britisches Leben zu führen, nicht zu Unrecht - sie gründeten britische Ruder- und Tennisvereine, gingen in ihren Club, importierten englische Jagdhunde und verstiegen sich zum Teil so weit, für den Bau ihres Sommerhauses Schiffsladungen englischer Erde zu importieren, damit das Gebäude auf den richtigen Fundamenten gründe.
Im 19. Jahrhundert stellten die Briten die drittgrößte Ausländergruppe in Russland dar. Erstmals wird ihnen eine umfassende Bestandsaufnahme gewidmet, die sich vor allem auf unveröffentlichten Quellen aus russischen und englischen Archiven stützt. Dabei wird sozial- und wirtschaftshistorischen Aspekten ebenso Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wie der Rolle der Kirche und dem Einfluss, den britische Philanthropen in Russland hatten.

description: The global plastic waste menace has evolved over the years and has contributed to increased pollution rates. The lack of alternative uses for plastic waste results in mismanagement and landfilling. Hence, it is imperative that the circularity of the plastic value chain be investigated, and a strategy to close the loop be determined. Thus, we seek to develop a plastic/sawdust composite from expanded polystyrene and sawdust waste and explore the role of the sawdust fiber filler and oyster shell powder (OSP) additive in the enhancement of the composite’s physical and mechanical properties. The bulk density and water absorption of the composites were determined conventionally. The tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and rupture were measured. The analyzed data indicate that different OSP loadings enhanced the physical and mechanical properties. The treatment of the sawdust enhanced the tensile strength more than the OSP loading, with the best performing composite being without OSP loadings. Therefore, the life cycle of polystyrene waste can be prolonged through the secondary use in plastic/ sawdust composite whose physical and mechanical properties can be enhanced by the addition of 0.5% or 0.7% OSP loadings and the tensile strength can be improved by the chemical treatment of sawdust fibers

description: Youth experiencing homelessness (YEH) face poor healthcare coordination when accessing public systems. Many public systems that YEH interact with, such as the emergency youth shelter (EYS) and health systems in Toronto, Canada, have evolved to operate in silos, with little transparency and communication between sectoral organizations and actors. As a result, youths' health concerns are often left unresolved with little to no coordination or continuity of care. Currently, there is no evidence on what healthcare coordination processes look like between the EYS and health systems in Toronto. To address this significant gap in knowledge, I used a systems-thinking and organizational change lens to explore engagement in healthcare coordination between these two pivotal systems, and how they can be targeted for change. Qualitative methods were used to: 1) define the boundaries of each system in their healthcare coordination roles; 2) understand healthcare coordination processes for YEH within and between the EYS and health systems, and the fundamental system parts that influence these processes; 3) assess interactions between these systems parts through a casual loop diagram; and 4) identify system parts that can be targeted to meaningfully strengthen healthcare coordination for YEH. Results from this research indicate that while each system operates in silos in their healthcare coordination roles, there are significant efforts to overlap between systems through collaboration in advocacy, and the development of relevant programs and policies. Despite this, a significant healthcare coordination gap was found between systems, typically when YEH suffer from crises, and often enter a recurring loop of transition and discharge between EYSs and hospitals. Using grounded theory methodology and thematic analysis, we identified several system parts that can be targeted to strengthen healthcare coordination within and between systems. Some of these include increasing EYS funding, building human resource capacity, strengthening inter- and intra-sectoral communication channels though policy change, establishing strategic partnerships and formal referral pathways, and integrating social medicine in approaches to care. As parts of each system behave interdependently in producing the healthcare coordination outcomes frequently experienced by youth, it is critical that interventions to strengthen coordination are approached holistically using a systems-thinking lens.
title: Saturated Thickness in the Ogallala Aquifer in the Panhandle Water Planning Area—Simulation of 2000 through 2050 Withdrawal Projections

description: The Ogallala aquifer is one of Texas' major aquifer systems. This study focused on the part of the Ogallala aquifer that underlies 18 of the 21 counties of the Panhandle Water Planning Area (PWPA). In the past 50 years, water-level drawdown in parts of the unconfined aquifer has been as much as 190 ft, or about 4 ft/yr. Pumping rates for the next 50 years, to 2050, have been projected to be greater than previous rates, and additional drawdown is possible. A numerical, or computer, model of the occurrence and movement of groundwater in the Ogallala aquifer was recalibrated to improve predictions of future water-level changes. Model development was part of a statewide process of developing regional water plans under Senate Bill 1, 75th Texas Legislative Session. This model improved on previous models by (1) covering the Ogallala aquifer within most of each county in the PWPA with detailed resolution, (2) using spatially controlled geologic and hydrologic data as much as possible, and (3) placing the model edges so as to minimize their effects on the area of interest in Texas. The model was recalibrated during the present study to improve the match between simulated and observed water levels in Dallam, Roberts, and Donley Counties. The model is intended to be used as a tool to assess surpluses and deficits in aquifer resources and to evaluate water-management strategies that might address water needs.

description: Der zügige Ausbau eines flächendeckenden Schulwesens war ein zentrales Projekt des im Ausgleich mit Österreich 1867 begründeten ungarischen Nationalstaates. In der langen Schultradition autonomer Kirchen konnte auf ein Modell zurückgegriffen werden, das zunächst auch der ethnischen Vielfalt des Landes gerecht zu werden versprach. Der Ausbau schulischer Infrastruktur und die Professionalisierung der Lehrerschaft verbanden sich in der Folge jedoch mit der Vermittlung der ungarischen Staatssprache, die bald zur wichtigsten Chiffre nationalstaatlicher Modernisierung wurde und heftige politische Reaktionen hervorrief. Deutlich werden auch die Freiräume und Strategien von Slowaken, Rumänen und Siebenbürger Sachsen, gegen regierungsamtliche Vorgaben mittels der Schulen ein konkurrierendes nationales Selbstbild zur Geltung zu bringen.

description: This 2-year PUMP project, now well underway, has made significant progress toward all goals and objectives. This report describes the work accomplished on the project during the first year. The target of the project is the Permian Basin of West Texas and southeast New Mexico (fig. 1), the largest petroleum-producing basin in the United States. The Permian Basin produced 18 percent of the total U.S. oil production in 1999, and it contains an estimated 23 percent of the proved oil reserves in the United States (EIA, 2000). Moreover, this region has the biggest potential for additional oil production in the country, containing 29 percent of estimated future oil reserve growth (Root and others, 1995). More than in any other region, increased use of preferred management practices in Permian Basin oil fields will have a substantial impact on domestic production. Production in the Permian Basin occurs from Paleozoic reservoirs, from Ordovician through Permian (fig. 2). Original oil in place (OOIP) in the Texas part of the basin alone was about 106 billion barrels (Bbbl) of oil (EIA, 2000). After reaching a peak production of more than 665 million barrels (MMbbl) per year in the early 1970s, Permian Basin oil production has continuously fallen. By 1999, production had fallen to less than 300 MMbbl, or half its peak production. Despite the continuing fall in production, the Permian Basin still holds a significant volume of oil. Although about 30 Bbbl of oil has been produced to date, this production represents only about 28 percent of the OOIP. Of the huge remaining resource in the basin, as much as 30 Bbbl of mobile oil remains as a target for improved technology and recovery strategies (Tyler and Banta, 1989).

description: This study attempts to replicate estimation results from Gábor Békés and Balázs Muraközy, Measuring productivity premia with many modes of internationalization, published in Economics Letters (2016). In this paper the authors use comparable firm-level data for seven European countries based on the EFIGE dataset to estimate the productivity premia of firms with various modes of internationalization by several empirical methods to demonstrate how results differ due to the method applied. While the EFIGE data are available free of charge from the web one core variable used by Békés and Muraközy is not, because total factor productivity (tfp) as computed by the authors is based on data from a commercial data base and, therefore, is available for users with a license to this database only. The freely available EFIGE data, however, come with another tfp-variable that can be used instead. In this replication study I use the EFIGE data with this publicly available tfp-variable to replicate (parts of) the estimations of Békés and Muraközy (2016) to see whether their results hold with the widely used public use version of the EFIGE data, too. It turns out that the big picture that emerges from using both productivity measures tends to be very similar. The use of the public use version of the EFIGE data for empirical investigations that deal with productivity, therefore, seems to be feasible.
