Soil restoration

description: Although inoculations with mycorrhizal fungi have been used successfully to promote native plant growth in ecological restorations, the restoration of highly contaminated sites such as those affected by mining operations, remains a challenge. High concentrations of heavy metals, soil compaction, acidic pH and low organic matter are common attributes of abandoned mine landscapes that can impede plant establishment and survival. Soil treatments such as mycorrhizal fungi and biochar individually can promote plant survival by mitigating these environmental pressures, however, it is largely unknown whether there are synergistic effects of mycorrhizal fungi and biochar co-treatments that can further improve native plant establishment in contaminated soil. In a greenhouse experiment, we evaluated growth responses of two successionally-distinct native plant species, Elymus glaucus (blue wildrye) and Pseudotsuga menziesii (Douglas-fir), in contaminated mine spoils collected from the Formosa Mine Superfund Site (Riddle, Oregon, USA). Seedlings of each species were transplanted individually into pots amended with biochar, locally collected rhizosphere-soil, assumed to contain mycorrhizal fungi, a co-treatment containing biochar and rhizosphere soil, or that contained neither of these treatments (control) in a full factorial design. We hypothesized that (1) individual treatments amended with biochar and rhizosphere soil containing mycorrhizal fungi would increase plant biomass compared to un-amended controls and that (2) co-amended treatments would synergistically increase plant biomass compared to either treatment alone. In contrast to our first hypothesis, we found that the biochar treatment reduced shoot biomass and chlorophyll content of Elymus glaucus relative to unamended controls. There were no effects of biochar detected on P. menziesii, however mycorrhizal fungi and the co-treatment increased the root to shoot ratio compared to the control. We did not find evidence to support our second hypothesis of synergistic effects by the co-treatment on the growth of either plant species. Although the treatments tested in this experiment did not increase plant biomass, both native plant species were able to grow in contaminated mine spoils while maintaining mycorrhizae. This has important implications for the restoration of abandoned mines, where beneficial soil microorganisms are deficient or absent.

Conus trochulus Reeve —Bronn in Reiss 1862: 24, pl. 1, fig. 2 [non Trovaoconus trochulus (Reeve, 1844)].
* Conus trochilus Mayer 1864: 80, pl. 7, fig. 60.
Type material. Single specimen length 16.0 mm, width 9.0 mm (incomplete spire fragment), Pinheiros (Baía da Cré), Santa Maria Island, Azores; whereabouts unknown (Beu 2017:165).
Original description. “ Eine kleine nur 6''' lange Art mit sehr flach-geŵlbtem Gewinde, vielleicht dem flächsten unter allen von dieser geringen Gr̂sse, und ohne Abstufung seiner 7-8 Umgänge; die Kante des letzten derselben abgerundet und einfach. Die ganze Oberfläche glatt und nur nächst dem vordern Ende mit Spuren von einigen Spiral-Streifen. Viel kleiner und die äussre Kante des Gewindes ausgeprägter, als an der fŗher als C. pyrula? aufgef̧hrten Art. Vielleicht dem Conus trochulus REEVE von den Capverdischen Inseln entsprechend? [A small species, only 6''' [lines] long species with very flattened spire, perhaps the flattest of all of this small size, and without the 7-8 spire whorls being scalate; the edge of the last is rounded and simple. The whole surface is smooth and only next to the anterior end are traces of some spiral cords. Much smaller and the outer edge of the suture more pronounced than on the previously mentioned as C. pyrula? Perhaps being the same as Conus trochulus Reeve from the Cape Verde Islands?] (Bronn in Reiss, 1862: 24).
Discussion. Tucker & Tenorio (2009: 83) placed this species in the genus Africonus Petuch, 1975, which are characterise by shells with cords on the spire whorls, the top of which may be concave, a shallow to moderately deep anal notch, and a paucispiral protoconch. No further specimens are available to further characterised this species. Today the genus is restricted to the Cabo Verde Islands.
Distribution. Lower Pliocene: Atlantic, Santa Maria Island, Azores (Mayer, in Bronn in Reiss 1862; Mayer 1864).

Santa Maria material examined. Maximum height 22.0 mm, width 11.0 mm. DBUA-F 924-1 (1), Malbusca; DBUA-F 946-B (1) Ponta dos Cedros, Santa Maria Island, Azores, Touril Complex, Lower Pliocene.
Description. Shell small for genus, coniform, with mammillate spire. Protoconch and earliest teleoconch whorls missing. Spire whorls weakly convex in profile, smooth, separated by moderately impressed linear suture. Last whorl broadly and roundly shouldered, almost straight-sided below. Sculpture absent, except for a few cords over the siphonal fasciole. Apertural side obscured by matrix.
Discussion. The specimens from Santa Maria are very similar to what Muñiz Solís (1999: 37, figs. 6A-D) called Conus (Chelyconus) cfr. anomalomamillus Sacco, 1893. They are characterised by their mammillate spires and convex spire whorls without spiral sculpture. Muñiz Solís’ material is from the lowermost Piacenzian Estepona Basin deposits. Although the Estepona assemblages are Upper Pliocene Piacenzian rather than Lower Pliocene Zanclean as are the Santa Maria assemblages, both were part of Pliocene Tropical MPPMU1. Whether they are conspecific with the holotype from the Lower Miocene Colli Torinesi of Italy needs further confirmation.
Distribution. Lower Pliocene: Atlantic, Santa Maria Island, Azores (this paper).

Plate 5 O
Santa Maria material examined. Maximum height 35.5 mm, width 16.0 mm. One specimen from LNEG collection (unnumbered), locality unknown, Santa Maria Island, Lower Pliocene.
Discussion. Plagioconus species are characterised by their elongated last whorl, convex spire whorls and shallow subsutural flexure (Tucker & Tenorio, 2009: 111; Harzhauser & Landau, 2016: 127). They also can have relatively high spires. The Azorean material is represented by one internal mould that probably represents a very high spire conid shell. However, we do not exclude the possibility of this being the internal mould of an unusually slender strombid.
The presence of Plagioconus in the Lower Pliocene of Santa Maria would be interesting if confirmed, as the genus is known only from the Miocene (Tucker & Tenorio, 2009: 111; Harzhauser & Landau, 2016: 127-141). In European Miocene assemblages, Plagioconus is found in fully tropical assemblages.
Distribution. Lower Pliocene: Atlantic, Santa Maria Island, Azores (this paper).

description: Introduction of monolithic inter-tier via (MIV) has opened new possibilities in three-dimensional (3D) VLSI design techniques. In this thesis, we propose a non-slicing 3-D floorplan representation to design block-level monolithic 3-D ICs. The new 3-D floorplan representation applied to simulated annealing-based optimization achieves smaller volume, shorter wire length, and lower dynamic power consumption than the Sequence Triple, Sequence Quintuple, and Slicing Tree 3-D floorplanning representations. The smaller size and reduced parasitics of MIV compared to through-silicon via (TSV) make designing cache memory in 3D a good choice. 3D cache memory is expected to achieve better performance with the number of layers increases. In this thesis, we explore different 3D memory design techniques and compare their power, delay, footprint, and energy-delay-product (EDP) values. First, we propose a new design methodology named Compact that consumes less power, incurs smaller delay and overall, shows better EDP compared to traditional 3D memory design techniques. Then we propose a new three-dimensional computer architecture to reduce context switch overhead.

description: We propose a novel active learning framework for activity recognition using wearable sensors. Our work is unique in that it takes limitations of the oracle into account when selecting sensor data for annotation by the oracle. Our approach is inspired by human-beings' limited capacity to respond to prompts on their mobile device. This capacity constraint is manifested not only in the number of queries that a person can respond to in a given time-frame but also in the time lag between the query issuance and the oracle response. We introduce the notion of mindful active learning and propose a computational framework, called EMMA, to maximize the active learning performance taking informativeness of sensor data, query budget, and human memory into account. We formulate this optimization problem, propose an approach to model memory retention, discuss complexity of the problem, and propose a greedy heuristic to solve the optimization problem. Additionally, we design an approach to perform mindful active learning in batch mode. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach using three publicly available activity datasets. We show that the activity recognition accuracy ranges from 21% to 97% depending on memory strength, query budget, and difficulty of the machine learning task. Our results also indicate that EMMA achieves an accuracy level that is, on average, 13.5% higher than the case when only informativeness of the sensor data is considered. Moreover, we show that the performance of our approach is at most 20% less than experimental upper-bound and up to 80% higher than experimental lower-bound. To evaluate the performance of EMMA for batch active learning, we design two instantiations of EMMA to perform active learning in a batch mode. We show that these algorithms improve the algorithm training time at the cost of a reduced accuracy in performance. Also, clustering into the process of selecting sensor observations for batch active learning improves the activity learning performance by 11.1% on average, mainly due to reducing the redundancy among the selected sensor observations. We observe that mindful active learning is most beneficial when query budget is small and/or oracle's memory is weak.

description: Background: Literature reporting positive outcomes from the Good Life with osteoArthritis in Denmark (GLA:D®) program in Australia mainly involves patients attending private physiotherapy services. Objective: Evaluate the feasibility of implementing GLA:D® in Australian public hospitals. Design: Implementation study in three metropolitan tertiary public hospitals over six months. Method: Patients aged ≥18 years with knee or hip joint-related problems deemed appropriate for non-surgical care were invited to participate in GLA:D®. Feasibility was evaluated using RE-AIM framework components (Implementation, Effectiveness, Maintenance) using service-level metrics, patient-level data, and program fidelity assessment. Findings of qualitative interviews with service providers are presented in Part 2. Results: Implementation: 70 patients (69 with knee osteoarthritis) participated (13 cohorts). 55 (79%) patients attended both education sessions, and 49 patients (70%) attended 10–12 exercises sessions. Fidelity was met based on environmental, therapist, participant- and program-related criteria. Effectiveness: At 3 months, patients reported lower average pain (visual analogue scale [0–100 mm]: effect size −0.56, 95% CI -0.88 to −0.23) and disability (HOOS/KOOS-12 [100-0]: 0.67, 0.28 to 1.05), and improved quality of life (EQ-5D overall score: 0.46, 0.11 to 0.80). No adverse events were reported. All patients who completed 3-month assessment (n = 52) would recommend GLA:D®. Maintenance: All participating services elected to continue delivering GLA:D® beyond the study. Conclusions: Implementing GLA:D® in Australian public hospitals is feasible, safe, and acceptable to patients with knee osteoarthritis. Public hospital patients with knee osteoarthritis reported improvements in pain, disability, and quality of life similar to previous GLA:D® cohorts.

description: Autonomous robotics is a rapidly growing field and of increasing importance to undergraduate engineering programs. As technology advances, robots are moving past basic repetitive jobs and finding uses that further expand human capabilities. They are becoming more capable of taking over dangerous tasks, as well as freeing humans up for more meaningful work. This progress requires robots to be able to sense their environment and act without supervision. Toward this end, a major problem in autonomous robotics is being addressed, which is simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM). SLAM is still very much in its research and development phase. Currently there are many methods available which to varying degrees solve the localization problem of SLAM. The majority use probabilistic concepts. However, these solutions often bring with them a high level of algorithmic complexity. This can raise the cost of implementation and make fundamental concepts difficult to comprehend, which is especially a problem for engineering students being exposed to SLAM principles for the first time. Furthermore, because high complexity may not be necessary when the constraints of time and accuracy are not as severe, some applications do not require the rigor of a full probabilistic SLAM method. Therefore, a solution to the localization problem which focuses on clarity and first principles can be beneficial to the engineering-education community and for applications where low cost is favored over high performance. The aim of this study is to develop a practical and relatively simple robotic development platform as a starting point for future research and development. The platform and research results will also be incorporated into a laboratory course covering the fundamentals of localization. This work presents a straightforward approach to the localization portion of the SLAM problem using scan matching techniques. By reducing scan matching from a multi-dimensional to a one-dimensional problem, localization can be solved in an easily understandable way while minimizing cost and computational requirements. This solution provides estimates of the robot pose within the confines of a static/simple environment. The techniques utilized are cross correlation for rotation movements combined with simple root mean squared error calculations for translation movements.

description: International trade has been increasing immensely over the past 60 years, and the U.S. is the world's leading importer of apparel products. Major apparel supplying countries for the U.S. have been shifting due to structural reconfigurations of the U.S. apparel industry. In order to analyze these shifts and to address gaps in the current literature, the purpose of this study was to empirically examine the effects of the crucial political and economic factors on the U.S. apparel imports from its most notable 20 supplying countries between the years 1995-2019. Ordinary-least-square (OLS) regression in conjunction with the gravity model framework was used to complete the analysis. The results of the study show that the leading suppliers are dominated by a combination of long-distance Asian suppliers and nations that are located close to the US in the Americas. In terms of the size of their economies and populations, there is a wide variation with larger and smaller countries being important. Additionally, the growing U.S. GDP, U.S. GDP Per Capita, and trading partner GDP and GDP Per Capita are driving the U.S. apparel imports, while the greater geographic distance between the U.S. and its trading partner significantly impedes the trade flow. Among all of the investigated factors, the U.S. GDP and U.S. GDP Per Capita have the most significant impacts on the U.S. apparel imports and are largely driving its demand on foreign supplies.

description: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), such as maltreatment and poverty, are commonly reported by women during the perinatal period. Although maternal ACEs have been found to significantly influence offspring development, the mechanisms currently linking maternal ACEs to socioemotional functioning during infancy remain largely unknown. The current study aimed to address this gap in the literature by examining whether internalizing symptoms during pregnancy mediate the association between maternal ACEs and infant temperament at two months. Moreover, this study investigated whether parenting practices during the postpartum period may buffer against the negative effects associated with maternal ACEs and prenatal internalizing symptoms on infant temperament. Secondary analyses were performed with existing data from a study investigating how factors such as nutrition, physical health, and psychosocial stress during pregnancy influence the development of infant temperament and stress reactivity (N=64). Participants completed several questionnaires during their third trimester of pregnancy, including measures assessing their early-life adversity as well as current depression and anxiety symptoms. At two months postpartum, mothers were administered an assessment measuring their infant's temperament and also participated in a parent-child interaction task designed to assess maternal sensitivity/responsiveness. Maternal ACEs was found to indirectly relate to the infant's ability to recover from stress via internalizing symptoms during pregnancy. Maternal sensitivity was also shown to moderate the effects of maternal ACEs and prenatal internalizing symptoms on infant temperament at two months. These results have implications for mental health screening procedures during pregnancy as well as the development of early intervention programs for infants born to mothers with early-life adversity.

description: The last decades have seen a considerable move forward regarding integrated vehicle and crew scheduling in various realms (airline industry, public transport). With the continuous improvement of information and communication technology as well as general solvers it has become possible to formulate more and more rich versions of these problems. In public transport, issues like rostering, delay propagation or days-off patterns have become part of these integrated problems. In this paper we aim to revisit an earlier formulation incorporating days-off patterns and investigate whether solvability with standard solvers has now become possible and to which extent the incorporation of other aspects can make the problem setting more rich and still keep the possible solvability in mind. This includes especially issues like delay propagation where in public transport delay propagation usually refers to secondary delays following a (primary) disturbance. Moreover, we investigate a robust version to support the claim that added richness is possible. Numerical results are provided to underline the envisaged advances.

Plate 6 B
Santa Maria material examined. Maximum height 25.0 mm (apical fragment). One specimen from LNEG collection (unnumbered), Ponta do Norte lighthouse, Santa Maria Island, Touril Complex, Lower Pliocene.
Description. Spire fragment consisting of about six whorls (apical whorl obscured by matrix). Intermediate whorls with broad, swollen, subsutural collar, straight sided below, periphery at adapical suture, sculpture of very fine, weak spiral cords covering entire surface.
Discussion. Although represented by a spire fragment, with the apex covered with matrix, the barrel-shape spire whorls with a strongly developed subsutural collar and lack of axial sculpture, allows identification as a clavatulid of the Perrona -like species groups. Harzhauser et al. (2022: 102) restricted the use of the genus Perrona Schumacher, 1817 to species with comma-shaped axial riblets below the subsutural cords on the neanic spire whorls. Landau & Harzhauser (2022) placed the Pliocene Atlantic and Mediterranean species previously ascribed to Perrona into the genus Tomellana Wenz, 1943, which do not have riblets on the neanic whorls. Although the Azorean specimen has the apex partially obscured by matrix, it is likely to be a Tomellana species and might represent T. onubensis Landau & Harzhauser, 2022 described from the Lower Pliocene Atlantic Guadalquivir Basin of Southern Spain. Unfortunately, the preservation does not allow us to confirm this identification. Harzhauser et al. (2022) traced the origin of the genus Tomellana to the Atlantic Aquitanian Lower Miocene of France, represented by T. jouannettii (Desmoulins, 1842). In the Pliocene it is represented mainly along the southern European Atlantic Frontage, with rare occurrences in the western and central Mediterranean (Landau & Harzhauser, 2022). Today, the genus is restricted to Tropical West African waters.
Distribution. Lower Pliocene: Atlantic, Santa Maria Island, Azores (this paper).

description: As a step towards implementing non-aversive handling techniques at a big mouse breeding facility in Germany, tunnel handling was introduced in a breeding unit comprising three inbred mouse strains. To assess whether tunnel handling would be feasible for the animal technicians in their everyday work and beneficial for the mice when being handled during weekly cage change only, the behaviour of tunnel- and tail-handled animals of both sexes was examined before, during and after the handling events over a period of nine weeks. Moreover, the time expenditure was compared between both handling techniques. It was possible to use the tunnel in all three mouse strains. However, the impact of the handling techniques on the behavioural parameters investigated in the present study were strain-specific. All behavioural parameters suggested that NZW mice benefited the most from tunnel handling. The results obtained from Hello Kitty and WNK mice were ambiguous, which may suggest that a brief handling session during the cage clean may have not been sufficient to habituate them to the process of handling. It took the animal technicians approximately 3 seconds longer per mouse when using a tunnel. The strain-specific results should encourage researchers to share their experiences with non-aversive handling techniques in different mouse strains, for example, along with their research articles.

description: More than two-thirds of jail inmates are unconvicted—i.e. detained pretrial. Detention status has been shown to have substantial downstream effects on criminal case processing, ranging from the likelihood of conviction to sentence outcomes. Yet, most sentencing studies lack information on detention status, leading to concerns of omitted variable bias as a possible explanation for any observed racial disparity. This study seeks to determine the extent to which pretrial status accounts for racial differences in sentencing. In addition to the standard release files from the Pennsylvania Commission on Sentencing, we incorporate supplemental data on bail decisions to determine whether—and why—defendants were detained pretrial. We use general linear models decomposition to determine the degree to which pretrial status differences and the differential impact of pretrial status across groups account for observed differences between Black, White, and Hispanic defendants’ likelihood of incarceration and departure and incarceration length.
