As cinco pedras da funda de Davi: análise de dois sermões italianos de Vieira
Creators: name: Muraro, Valmir Francisco
Publisher: name: Revista Lusófona de Ciência das Religiões
Year: 2013

description: O presente artigo analisa os Sermões do Padre António Vieira intitulados As Cinco Pedras da Funda de David, proferidos em Roma durante a Quaresma de 1674. Neles o pregador jesuíta tratou do significado da luta entre o gigante Golias e o pequeno Davi, ou seja, da derrota da força bruta do soldado treinado para matar, diante da confiança inabalável do jovem pastor. Ao cotejar as publicações disponíveis dos referidos Sermões com o texto proferido em língua italiana se verifica que o mesmo sofreu alterações significativas, o que permite inferir que o Padre Vieira interferiu nos Sermões publicados sob sua supervisão.

description: We present a method for explicit leapfrog integration of inseparable Hamiltonian systems by means of an extended phase space. A suitably defined new Hamiltonian on the extended phase space leads to equations of motion that can be numerically integrated by standard symplectic leapfrog (splitting) methods. When the leapfrog is combined with coordinate mixing transformations, the resulting algorithm shows good long term stability and error behaviour. We extend the method to non-Hamiltonian problems as well, and investigate optimal methods of projecting the extended phase space back to original dimension. Finally, we apply the methods to a Hamiltonian problem of geodesics in a curved space, and a non-Hamiltonian problem of a forced non-linear oscillator. We compare the performance of the methods to a general purpose differential equation solver LSODE, and the implicit midpoint method, a symplectic one-step method. We find the extended phase space methods to compare favorably to both for the Hamiltonian problem, and to the implicit midpoint method in the case of the non-linear oscillator.

description: We theoretically investigate the trion-polariton and the effects of a two-dimensional electron gas on its single particle properties. Focussing on the trion and exciton transitions, we set up an effective model and calculate the optical absorption of the quantum well containing the 2DEG. Including the light-matter coupling, we compute the Rabi splitting and polariton lineshapes as a function of 2DEG density. The role of finite temperature is investigated. The spatial extent of the trion-polariton is also calculated. We find a substantial charge build-up at short distances as long as the Rabi frequency does not exceed the trion binding energy. All our calculations take into account the Fermi-edge singularity and the Anderson orthogonality catastrophe.

description: In order to manage and implement strategies to alleviate the symptoms of jet lag it is essential to assess the impact of jet lag in athletes. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of long haul eastward travel on elite athletes’ (n = 7 elite national track cyclists; male n = 3, and female n = 4) sleep. The athletes’ sleep was monitored before, during and after travel using both actigraphy and self-report measures. Participants wore an activity monitor for 5 days prior to travel, during the long haul travel and 5 days upon arrival at their destination and completed a daily online sleep diary Actigraphy highlighted significant reductions in time in bed, total sleep time and sleep efficiency (%) due to long haul eastward travel, particularly in the 48 h after travel. Sleep diary data exhibited significant reductions in time in bed, total sleep time, sleep efficiency, sleep quality and a sig?nificant increase in fatigue going to bed as a result of long haul eastward travel. In order to facilitate the development of interventions to reduce the symptoms and severity of jet lag objective and subjective assessments of sleep should be coupled with assessments of chronotype and perceived sleep need.
Dark Higgs Channel for FERMI GeV $γ$-ray Excess

Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Dark Higgs is very generic in dark matter models where DM is stabilized by some spontaneously broken dark gauge symmetries. Motivated by the FERMI observation of $\sim$GeV scale $γ$-ray excess from the galactic center (GC), we investigate a scenario that a pair of dark matter $X$ annihilates into a pair of dark Higgs $H_2$, which subsequently decays into standard model particles through its mixing with SM Higgs boson. Besides the two-body decay of $H_2$, we also include multibody decay channels of the dark Higgs. We find that the best-fit point is around $M_X\simeq 95.0$GeV, $M_{H_2}\simeq 86.7$GeV, $\langle σv\rangle\simeq 4.0\times 10^{-26}\textrm{cm}^3\textrm{/s}$ and gives a p-value $\simeq 0.40$. Implication of this result is described in the context of dark matter models with dark gauge symmetries. Since such a dark Higgs boson is very difficult to produce at colliders, indirect DM detections of cosmic $γ$-rays could be an important probe of dark sectors, complementary to collider searches.

Implications of Inertia for Assessing Drug Control Policy: Why Upstream Interventions May Not Receive Due Credit

subject: FOS: Political science

description: Background: There is ongoing interest in assessing the effectiveness of various drug control strategies, including policy intended to reduce initiation and prevalence. Compartmental models of trajectories of drug use have been developed that demonstrate that drug “systems” display significant inertia; interventions on systems with high inertia can be difficult to evaluate.

Method: The implications of inertia are illustrated by combining a new empirically-derived model of national drug initiation with a compartment model of trends in illicit drug use parameterized for Australia.

Results: Typical initiation trajectories seem to display damped oscillation. Lags and interpersonal variation in the trajectories of drug use careers smooth those oscillations for measures of problem use and total drug-related social cost. Even abrupt changes in initiation – as dramatic as a two-year long 50% reduction in initiation – barely ripple the trajectory of drug-related social cost. The benefits of upstream interventions are not diminished but rather are hidden in plain sight by being spread broadly over time so that they leave only the faintest finger-print detectable by before-and-after comparison – even if the intervention has a large effect and a perfect counter-factual is available.

Conclusion: Fluctuating initiation is not inconsistent with ever worsening drug problems, and the absence of clear drops in drug-related problems does not imply that an upstream intervention did not produce substantial social benefits. Hence, macro-level evaluation of upstream drug control interventions has inherent limitations. Drug use and related problems are often perceived of as stubborn, even intractable. Some of that perception stems from real limitations in the effectiveness of drug-control interventions. However, inertia inherent in the evolution of drug use can make even cost-effective interventions appear weak (and detrimental interventions appear benign).

description: Os múltiplos Vieiras que se manifestam nas cartas e sermões demonstram como um homem do Seis centos poderia se inserir nas questões temporais e espirituais. Mas, como Vieira afirmava, ele não era um homem comum, havia poucos Vieiras. A atuação multifacetada do religioso era em parte a expressão da Companhia de Jesus e de um dos seus representantes que defendia os interesses da monarquia portuguesa. A compreensão do pensamento econômico de Vieira se circunscreve dentro de faixas lineares, estabelecidas conforme a conjuntura.

description: Neural network (NN) potentials promise highly accurate molecular dynamics (MD) simulations within the computational complexity of classical MD force fields. However, when applied outside their training domain, NN potential predictions can be inaccurate, increasing the need for Uncertainty Quantification (UQ). Bayesian modeling provides the mathematical framework for UQ, but classical Bayesian methods based on Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) are computationally intractable for NN potentials. By training graph NN potentials for coarse-grained systems of liquid water and alanine dipeptide, we demonstrate here that scalable Bayesian UQ via stochastic gradient MCMC (SG-MCMC) yields reliable uncertainty estimates for MD observables. We show that cold posteriors can reduce the required training data size and that for reliable UQ, multiple Markov chains are needed. Additionally, we find that SG-MCMC and the Deep Ensemble method achieve comparable results, despite shorter training and less hyperparameter tuning of the latter. We show that both methods can capture aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty reliably, but not systematic uncertainty, which needs to be minimized by adequate modeling to obtain accurate credible intervals for MD observables. Our results represent a step towards accurate UQ that is of vital importance for trustworthy NN potential-based MD simulations required for decision-making in practice.

description: Traditional engineering design discipline calls for designs to be evaluated long before they are implemented. Early design
evaluations predict properties of the artifact that will result from a proper implementation of the design and the value of those
properties to the client or end user. The predicted properties can include costs as well as functionality, performance, and
quality measures. Software engineering has some such evaluation techniques but the discipline lacks a systematic way to
explain, compare, develop, and apply them. We discuss the role of early predictive design evaluation in software design,
show how a variety of specific predictors serve this role, and propose a unifying framework, Predictive Analysis for Design
(PAD) for design evaluation techniques. We are especially interested in techniques that predict the value of the finished
software system to its client or end user and that make the predictions before the expense of software development or
integration is incurred. We show that our PAD framework, even in its preliminary state, is sufficiently expressive to be
useful in explaining and characterizing design evaluation techniques. We argue that the PAD framework shows sufficient
promise to justify further development toward a unified theory of early predictive design evaluation.

description: Physics-based simulations of earthquake ground motion are useful to complement recorded ground motions. However, the computational expense of performing numerical simulations hinders their applicability to tasks that require real-time solutions or ensembles of solutions for different earthquake sources. To enable rapid physics-based solutions, we present a reduced-order modeling (ROM) approach based on interpolated proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to predict peak ground velocities (PGVs). As a demonstrator, we consider PGVs from regional 3D wave propagation simulations at the location of the 2008 Mw 5.4 Chino Hills earthquake using double-couple sources with varying depth and focal mechanisms. These simulations resolve frequencies $\leq$ 1.0 Hz and include topography, viscoelastic attenuation, and S-wave speeds $\geq$ 500 m/s. We evaluate the accuracy of the interpolated POD ROM as a function of the approximation method. Comparing the radial basis function (RBF), multilayer perceptron neural network, random forest, and $k$-nearest neighbor, we find that the RBF interpolation gives the lowest error ($\approx$ 0.1 cm/s) when tested against an independent dataset. We also find that evaluating the ROM is $10^7-10^8$ times faster than the wave propagation simulations. We use the ROM to generate PGV maps for one million different focal mechanisms, in which we identify potentially damaging ground motions and quantify correlations between focal mechanism, depth, and accuracy of the predicted PGV. Our results demonstrate that the ROM can rapidly and accurately approximate the PGV from wave propagation simulations with variable source properties, topography, and complex subsurface structure.

description: Mokdad et al. (2004) estimate that each year in the United States, 435,000 people die from tobacco use, 85,000 from alcohol, and 17,000 from all illicit substances combined. Yet American public appears far more concerned about illegal drugs than it is about tobacco and alcohol use, driving expansions in control efforts far beyond that which is part and parcel of prohibition. The central thesis of this paper is that some of this mismatch in concern may stem from differences in the types of deaths created, with deaths associated with illicit drugs being, on average, “scarier” to the public than are the deaths associated with legal substances in a way that can be grounded in the risk perception and communication literatures. We summarize literature documenting that people care about more than actual death risk. Factors such as voluntariness, control, and familiarity also play a crucial role in determining the perceived risk of an event, and some of those factors seem to be more salient for the illicit drugs than for tobacco and alcohol. Social amplification of risk may also play a role in explaining these perceptions, but may not by itself be the full explanation. We conclude that the mismatch between actual risks and public concern is not necessarily entirely wrong or irrational, but rather may, to some extent, embody stable preferences that should be reflected in policy.

description: Previous work in the area of new product development (NPD) has focused mainly on the role of
design in downstream value chain activities. In this field study, conducted at a leading avionics
guidance systems manufacturer, we gathered primary data on time and cost performance of both
the design and manufacturing phases of customized systems. We modeled the impact of the
management levers relating to oversight, the intensity of specialization in design and the level of
interaction with the customer. Our model recommends appropriate managerial strategies based on
the relative resources required in the design and manufacturing phases. The study highlights the
necessity of leveraging the interdependency between the design and manufacturing phases to
achieve superior performance in both financial and time metrics.

description: Exoplanetary systems closest to the Sun, with the brightest host stars, provide the most favorable opportunities for characterization studies of the host star and their planet(s). The Transit Ephemeris Refinement and Monitoring Survey uses both new radial velocity measurements and photometry in order to greatly improve planetary orbit uncertainties and the fundamental properties of the star, in this case HD 130322. The only companion, HD 130322b, orbits in a relatively circular orbit, e = 0.029 every ~10.7 days. Radial velocity measurements from multiple sources, including 12 unpublished from the Keck I telescope, over the course of ~14 years have reduced the uncertainty in the transit midpoint to ~2 hours. The transit probability for the b-companion is 4.7%, where M_p sin i = 1.15 M_J and a = 0.0925 AU. In this paper, we compile photometric data from the T11 0.8m Automated Photoelectric Telescope at Fairborn Observatory taken over ~14 years, including the constrained transit window, which results in a dispositive null result for both full transit exclusion of HD 130322b to a depth of 0.017 mag and grazing transit exclusion to a depth of ~0.001 mag. Our analysis of the starspot activity via the photometric data reveals a highly accurate stellar rotation period: 26.53 +/-0.70 days. In addition, the brightness of the host with respect to the comparison stars is anti-correlated with the Ca II H and K indices, typical for a young solar-type star.

description: Hepatitis C (HCV) is a serious infection caused by a blood-borne virus. It is a contagious disease spreading rapidly via a variety of transmission mechanisms including contaminated tattoo equipment. Effectively regulating commercial tattoo parlours can greatly reduce this risk. This paper models the cost-effectiveness and optimal timing of such interventions, and parameterizes the model with data for Vienna, Austria. This dynamic model of the contagious spread of HCV via tattooing and other mechanisms accounts for secondary infections and shows that regulation can be highly cost-effective.

We prove that for any finite random triangulation the magnetization of the central spin is sensitive of the boundary conditions. Furthermore, we show that in the infinite volume limit, the magnetization of the central spin vanishes for values of the temperature high enough.

Nesse sentido, trata-se de entender essas denúncias a partir do contexto de embates em que foram produzidas. Por outro lado, trata-se de investigar de que modo os acusadores se valeram do Santo Ofício como um instrumento político no conflito contra os padres jesuítas.

description: Through our study we empirically test the role of peers on diffusion of niche music in an online social network. Over the last few years, online networks have been gaining popularity and allowing community members to share and exchange information. Traditionally this online diffusion of information was dependent on other mechanisms like viral marketing, recommender systems, and online word-of-mouth. But due to information overload the effectiveness of these mechanisms is reduced. With the increase in online trust, online social networks are becoming the platform of choice for product advertising and discovery. We found that the online peers indeed influence other peers and enable discovery of niche music on social networks.

description: A parénese pedagógica exercida através do púlpito, no tempo quaresmal, teve no jesuíta António Vieira, ao longo de mais de meio século, um pendor crítico de incidência impar sobre o estado e a sociedade portuguesa de seiscentos. É aliciante, para um historiador das ideias políticas e das mentalidades, analisar o seu sermonário onde perpassam problemas estruturais e conjunturais relativos ao poder a à governação coevos. Denúncia contundente e doutrinarismo imbricam-se exemplarmente no seu discurso moralista de contornos polémicos acerca da nomeação de pessoas para a administração e da distribuição de mercês por serviços prestados à coroa. Religioso, pregador régio e conselheiro de D. João IV, os seus três “sermões dos pretendentes”, dedicados ao tratamento desta temática e proferidos na Terceira Quarta-Feira da Quaresma, revestem-se de assinalável importância pelo conhecimento da realidade e envergadura intelectual e ética do orador, como, ao tempo, pela acuidade do assunto.

description: A large class of type-I fracton models, including the X-cube model, have been found to be fixed points of the foliated renormalization group (RG). The system size of such foliated models can be changed by adding or removing decoupled layers of $2$D topological states and continuous deformation of the Hamiltonian. In this paper, we study a closely related model -- the Ising cage-net model -- and find that this model is not foliated in the same sense. In fact, we point out certain unnatural restrictions in the foliated RG, and find that removing these restrictions leads to a generalized foliated RG under which the Ising cage-net model is a fixed point, and which includes the original foliated RG as a special case. The Ising cage-net model thus gives a prototypical example of the generalized foliated RG, and its system size can be changed either by condensing / uncondensing bosonic planon excitations near a 2D plane or through a linear depth quantum circuit in the same plane. We show that these two apparently different RG procedures are closely related, as they lead to the same gapped boundary when implemented in part of a plane. Finally, we briefly discuss the implications for foliated fracton phases, whose universal properties will need to be reexamined in light of the generalized foliated RG.

description: Unfolding of a supercell band structure into a primitive Brillouin zone is important for understanding implications of structural distortions, disorder, defects, solid solutions on materials electronic structure. Necessity of the band unfolding is also recognised in interpretation of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements. We describe an extension of the fold2Bloch package by implementing an arbitrary transformation matrix used to establish a relation between primitive cell and supercell. This development allows us to overcome limitations of supercells constructed exclusively by scaling of primitive cell lattice vectors. It becomes possible to transform between primitive and conventional cells as well as include rotations. The fold2Bloch is publicaly available from a GitHub repository as a FORTRAN code. It interfaces with the all-electron full-potential WIEN2k and the pseudopotential VASP density functional theory packages. The fold2Bloch is supplemented by additional pre- and post-processing utilities that aid in generating k points in the supercell (such that they later fall onto a desired path in the primitive Brillouin zone after unfolding) and plotting the unfolded band structure. We selected Sr$_2$IrO$_4$ as an illustrative example and, for the first time, present its properly unfolded band structure in direct comparison with ARPES measurements. In addition, critical importance of the band unfolding for interpretation of SrIrO$_3$ ARPES data is illustrated and discussed as a perspective.

description: A cubic graph $G$ is cyclically 5-connected if $G$ is simple, 3-connected, has at least 10 vertices and for every set $F$ of edges of size at most four, at most one component of $G\backslash F$ contains circuits. We prove that if $G$ and $H$ are cyclically 5-connected cubic graphs and $H$ topologically contains $G$, then either $G$ and $H$ are isomorphic, or (modulo well-described exceptions) there exists a cyclically 5-connected cubic graph $G'$ such that $H$ topologically contains $G'$ and $G'$ is obtained from $G$ in one of the following two ways. Either $G'$ is obtained from $G$ by subdividing two distinct edges of $G$ and joining the two new vertices by an edge, or $G'$ is obtained from $G$ by subdividing each edge of a circuit of length five and joining the new vertices by a matching to a new circuit of length five disjoint from $G$ in such a way that the cyclic orders of the two circuits agree. We prove a companion result, where by slightly increasing the connectivity of $H$ we are able to eliminate the second construction. We also prove versions of both of these results when $G$ is almost cyclically 5-connected in the sense that it satisfies the definition except for 4-edge cuts such that one side is a circuit of length four. In this case $G'$ is required to be almost cyclically 5-connected and to have fewer circuits of length four than $G$. In particular, if $G$ has at most one circuit of length four, then $G'$ is required to be cyclically 5-connected. However, in this more general setting the operations describing the possible graphs $G'$ are more complicated.

title: Knowing Herodotus: The Historian and his Histories in Post-War Anglophone Literature
Creators: name: Quine, Lucy
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2021

description: The evolution of Classical reception studies in recent decades has encouraged a corresponding growth of interest in assessing instances of Herodotean reception from antiquity to the present era. This thesis joins the conversation by exploring how Herodotus’ Histories has been utilized in post-war anglophone literature. Concentrating on examples of Herodotean reception in travel literature and the novel, I examine the ways in which Herodotus has inspired authors to engage with the Histories. The featured travel writers regard the text as a guide to travel, with Herodotus characterised as the perfect companion to escort a traveller on their journey. For the novelists Herodotus’ account becomes a means through which to explore the malleability of historical texts, with the Histories symbolising the flaws of Western narrative history and its tendency to neglect marginalised voices. By identifying the contexts from which these case studies emerged this thesis seeks to extract what motivations lie behind the authors’ interaction with the Histories and examine the ways in which Herodotus’ work has been utilized to correspond with ideas and audiences of the modern era.
Vieira: a grandeza de um imperador

description: Foi assim que Fernando Pessoa apelidou Vieira, tal a elevação e qualidade do seu uso da língua portuguesa. Sobretudo nos Sermões de matriz barroca, em que, contrariamente à moda do tempo, foi sempre fiel a duas dinâmicas fundamentais: a da retórica clássica, e a da temática bíblica e litúrgica que deu normalmente título a toda a sua actividade parenética.Também Embaixador junto das principais Cortes europeias, este missionário jesuíta foi o grande apóstolo do Brasil contra a escravatura: na Bahia, pregando a suavizaçãodos cativeiros dos negros, porque não podia afrontá-la directamente; no Maranhão, impedindo a escravização dos índios. Personalidade excepcional e multiforme, aliava ao realismo das actuações concretas o génio do sonhador utópico, imaginando um Quinto Império religioso que Pessoa viria a transformar em Quinto Império da Língua Portuguesa.

description: Last school year, teachers or employees from fourteen Pennsylvania public school districts went on strike. In Pennsylvania, as in eight other states, strikes are a legal and regulated part of collective bargaining, a process in which, every few years, teachers’ unions and local school boards meet to agree upon pay, benefits, and working conditions. Theory and empirical evidence from manufacturing (Kleiner, Leonard & Pilarski [1999]; Mas [2007]; Krueger & Mas [2003]) and the service sector (Mas [2006]) tell us that labor strife causes a decrease in employee productivity, but there have been no studies exploring whether the relationship between labor strife and teacher productivity can be measured empirically. The contribution of this paper to the literature is to document whether the same relationship that exists in firms, between production and labor strife, exists in public schools, between education production and teachers’ labor disputes.

description: In this paper we review some of our recent experimental and theoretical results on transport and thermodynamic properties of heavy-fermion alloys Ce(1-x)Yb(x)CoIn5. Charge transport measurements under magnetic field and pressure on these single crystalline alloys revealed that: (i) relatively small Yb substitution suppresses the field induced quantum critical point, with a complete suppression for nominal Yb doping x>0.20; (ii) the superconducting transition temperature Tc and Kondo lattice coherence temperature T* decrease with x, yet they remain finite over the wide range of Yb concentrations; (iii) both Tc and T* increase with pressure; (iv) there are two contributions to resistivity, which show different temperature and pressure dependences, implying that both heavy and light quasiparticles contribute to inelastic scattering. We also analyzed theoretically the pressure dependence of both T* and Tc within the composite pairing theory. In the purely static limit, when we ignore the lattice dynamics, we find that the composite pairing mechanism necessarily causes opposite behaviors of T* and Tc with pressure: if T* grows with pressure, Tc must decrease with pressure and vice versa.

Asymptotic properties of the Dirac quantum cellular automaton

description: We show that the Dirac quantum cellular automaton [Ann. Phys. 354 (2015) 244] shares many properties in common with the discrete-time quantum walk. These similarities can be exploited to study the automaton as a unitary process that takes place at regular time steps on a one-dimensional lattice, in the spirit of general quantum cellular automata. In this way, it becomes an alternative to the quantum walk, with a dispersion relation that can be controlled by a parameter, which plays a similar role to the coin angle in the quantum walk. The Dirac Hamiltonian is recovered under a suitable limit. We provide two independent analytical approximations to the long term probability distribution. It is shown that, starting from localized conditions, the asymptotic value of the entropy of entanglement between internal and motional degrees of freedom overcomes the known limit that is approached by the quantum walk for the same initial conditions, and are similar to the ones achieved by highly localized states of the Dirac equation.

description: While copyright research in the decade following Napster focused mostly on whether file sharing undermines demand, research has more recently asked how piracy and other aspects of digitization affect the supply of new products. Although revenue has declined sharply, evidence that weakened effective copyright protection undermines creation has been elusive. Instead, because of cost-reducing effects of digitization, the number of new recorded music products – and their apparent quality – has increased. This study examines movie production in India during a period of technological change that facilitated large-scale piracy. The diffusion of the VCR and cable television in India between 1985 and 2000 created substantial opportunities for unpaid movie consumption. We use this episode to study possible impacts of piracy on supply. We first document, from narrative sources, conditions conducive to piracy as these technologies diffused. We then provide strong circumstantial evidence of piracy in diminished appropriability: movies’ revenues fell by a third to a half, conditional on their ratings by movie-goers and their ranks in their annual revenue distributions. Weaker effective demand undermined creative incentives. While the number of new movies released had grown steadily from 1960 to 1985, it fell markedly between 1985 and 2000, suggesting a supply elasticity in the range of 0.2-0.7. Thus, our study provides affirmative evidence on a central tenet of copyright policy, that stronger effective copyright protection effects more creation. We contrast our findings with evidence from other contexts.

description: Blueberry production in the field faces several challenges, including competition from weeds and soil suitability. Different mulch types are widely used in blueberry cultivation to control weeds, conserve moisture, and mitigate soil erosion. However, the comparative effects of loose and compressed wood chips on fruit quality and weed control in blueberry production systems have not been studied. Many farmers use expensive imported peat moss as soil covers, while others apply organic mulches such as chips or chaff, which can be easily washed away by runoff. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of compressed mulching boards (MB) fabricated without the use of chemical adhesives using pressurized steam and compression technologies in blueberry cultivation. During the two growing seasons, the effectiveness of compressed MB on soil moisture retention, fruit quality, and weed biomass was compared to that of wood chip (WC) and control treatments in a blueberry field. Although a significant difference was observed in the fruit fresh weight, no significant differences were observed in the other fruit growth parameters for all the treatments. Generally, the compressed MB significantly improved soil moisture retention capacity compared to WC and control during the two-year study. The compressed MB showed effective weed suppression ability by significantly reducing the weed biomass at all sampling times.
