description:
Rock art is a common cultural manifestation throughout Colombia. Here the Painted Stone of Aipe represents a striking archaeological evidence as an outstanding masterpiece of pre-Hispanic rock art. Several pectorals of different shapes are observed as a central motif used by the pre-Hispanic communities of Quimbaya, Tairona and the southern tribes. In addition to the pectorals, the stylized devil or monkey is seen in various combinations along with nose rings, fishhooks, bead necklaces, pendants, and rattles, among others. The substrate of the Aipe Painted Stone is a yellowish sandstone of oval shape  and the low-relieve carvings are mainly on the longer SE-side of the stone block. This study aims to assess the different decay phenomena affecting the ~500-year old pre-Hispanic rock art carved on the sandstone block which is at an altitude of 370m on a main road near the Magdalena River. The artwork has important conservation problems mainly due to weathering creating a complex set of mechanical, chemical and biological processes on the rock. In the sandstone, the ~0,1 mm quartz-grains (45%) and foraminifers (15%) are mainly cemented by cryptocrystalline SiO2; also phases like phosphates, clays, micas, opaques and a high open porosity of 15 % occur, enhancing chemical dissolution and precipitation of Fe-oxides. Among the main identified deterioration agents are water flows and humidity changes, solar radiation, abrasion caused by dust and sand carried by the often strong wind, internal pressure variations due to temperature variations and salt migration, plants and microorganisms, but also anthropic interventions.

The Geological Data Act (GeolDG) came into force on June 30, 2020. It has replaced the Mineral Law (LagerstG) and has lead to a comprehensive new legal regulation in the field of recording, archiving and publishing geological data. The primary objectives of the Act are to safeguard geological data and make it available to the public, to ensure the sustainable use of the geological subsurface, and to be able to identify and assess geohazards.

Therewith it also affects clients of geological investigations and those commissioned to carry them out, e.g. drilling companies, etc. There is an obligation to notify the competent authority of all geological investigations at least two weeks before they begin. Data transmission and public provision is also regulated by means of deadlines. The term "geological investigation" includes all general geological, raw material geological, engineering geological, geophysical, mineralogical, geochemical, pedological, geothermal, hydrogeological and geotechnical measurements and recordings of earth's surface, geological subsurface, of ground or groundwater, obtained by means of prospecting, drilling, field or borehole measurements and other exploration methods such as remote sensing, as well as the processing of the data obtained in this way, as well as analyses and evaluations of these data, e.g. in the form of expert reports, surveys, and reports.

With the contribution here the law is presented fundamentally and for the execution of the law announcement procedures in the countries as well as processes of data transmission and administrative procedures for data supply.

description:
Within the KONATES project, an Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES) system is planned in the scientific park of Leipzig, where the groundwater is contaminated with chlorinated volatile organic compounds (Cl-VOCs). Supported by the SpeicherCity project, corresponding numerical model is being further developed and applied to study the environmental impact of ATES operation.

From the regulatory perspective, the operation of ATES system in the urban area should not induce temperature changes beyond a few degrees Celsius at the boundary of the properties. The challenge faced in the KONATES project is that this temperature limit will be quickly exceeded, as the injection temperature is planned to be ca. 80°C. This requires a careful planning on the timing, duration, and location of the injection, as well as the pumping rate.

To satisfy the regulatory requirements and facilitate the understanding of such impacts, a 3D numerical model has been constructed, simulating both hydraulic and heat transport process in the aquifer. The model is capable of predicting the propagation of the thermal plume in response to different design of injection temperature and flow rate. Due to the high groundwater velocity, it shows that at a pumping rate of 600 l/h, injection can only be carried out for 12 days continuously without increasing the groundwater temperature more than 2°C at the boundary.

The next step of model development is to include feature that reflects the elevated mobility of the Cl-VOCs, which is relevant to the quantification of extracted contamination in the surface treatment facility.

To enforce these defenses, the servers need to communicate them to the client, a seemingly straightforward process. However, users may access the same site in variegate ways, e.g., using different User-Agents, network access methods, or language settings. All these usage scenarios should enforce the same security policies, otherwise a security lottery would take place: depending on specific client characteristics, different levels of Web application security would be provided to users (inconsistencies). We formalize security guarantees provided through four popular mechanisms and apply this to measure the prevalence of inconsistencies in the security policies of top sites across different client characteristics. Based on our insights, we investigate the security implications of both deterministic and non-deterministic inconsistencies, and show how even prominent services are affected by them.

The gut microbiota in Parkinson's disease
Creators: name: Cirstea, Mihai Serban
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. Gastrointestinal comorbidities, especially constipation and slow colonic transit time, affect most patients and can manifest decades before motor symptom onset, leading to speculation that the gut microbiota may be involved in disease etiology and pathophysiology. Leveraging clinical cohorts and in vitro models, I investigated the microbiota’s role in PD. Bacterial (16S) and fungal (ITS2) amplicon sequencing elucidated the composition of the microbiota in PD patients and controls, and paired serum metabolomics helped infer microbial function. I showed that the PD microbiota had a reduced abundance of several co-abundant short-chain fatty acid producing bacteria, including well-known butyrate producing genera such as Faecalibacterium and Roseburia. The butyrate production capacity of the PD microbiota was inversely associated with colonic transit time as estimated by Bristol Stool Scale score. Conversely, the PD microbiota had a higher abundance of several co-abundant bacteria with diverse metabolic capacities, including the mucin-degrading Akkermansia muciniphila. PD-enriched microbes were strongly associated with increased colonic transit time and serum concentrations of the proteolytic microbial metabolites p-cresol and phenylacetylglutamine. These findings generated mechanistic hypotheses that were carried into in vitro experiments. Regarding PD-relevant microbial metabolites, I showed that butyrate dampened cytokine production and immune cell attachment in a blood brain barrier endothelial cell line, while p-cresol caused inflammation and downregulated genes involved in gut peptide and serotonin biosynthesis in an enteroendocrine cell line. A final clinically-informed mechanistic insight came from the observation that the abundance of the PD-enriched genus Bifidobacterium was correlated with levodopa (L-DOPA) dose in patients. L-DOPA is the primary treatment for PD. It is taken orally, absorbed in the intestines, and must reach the brain intact to exert its clinical effect. Peripheral breakdown of L-DOPA is an ongoing clinical concern, including metabolism by gut microbes. Through in vitro assays, a pathway was discovered whereby certain Bifidobacterium species can metabolize L-DOPA into its equivalent lactic acid using existing tyrosine metabolism genes. In conclusion, in this thesis I demonstrate compositional and functional alterations in the PD microbiota with important downstream consequences on gut function and therapeutic management.

description: We have extended our earlier work on space weathering of the youngest S-complex asteroid families to include results from asteroid clusters with ages <10^6 years and to newly identified asteroid pairs with ages <5x10^5 years. We have identified three S-complex asteroid clusters with ages in the range 10^{5-6} years. The average color of the objects in these clusters agree with the prediction of Willman et al., 2008. SDSS photometry of the members of very young asteroid pairs with ages <10^5 years was used to determine their taxonomy. The average color of the S-complex pairs is PC_1=0.49+/-0.03, over 5-sigma redder than predicted by Willman et al., 2008. Therefore, the most likely pair formation mechanism is gentle separation due to YORP spin-up leaving much of the aged and reddened surface undisturbed. In this case our color measurement allows us to set an upper limit of ~64% on the disturbed surface portion. Using pre-existing color data and our new results for the youngest S-complex asteroid clusters we have extended our space weather model to explicitly include the effects of regolith gardening and fit separate weathering and gardening characteristic timescales of tau_w=960+/-160My and tau_g=2000+/-290My respectively. The first principal component color for fresh S-complex material is 0.37+/-0.01 while the maximum amount of local reddening is 0.33+/-0.06. Our first-ever determination of the gardening time is in stark contrast to our calculated gardening time of tau_g~270My based on main belt impact rates and reasonable assumptions about crater and ejecta blanket sizes. A possible resolution for the discrepancy is through a `honeycomb' mechanism in which the surface regolith structure absorbs small impactors without producing significant ejecta. This mechanism could also account for the paucity of small craters on (433) Eros.

description: We report the discovery of HD 112863 B and HD 206505 B, which are two new benchmark brown dwarfs that sit at the substellar-stellar boundary with precise dynamical masses. We perform an orbital fit combining the radial velocities from the CORALIE survey, with relative astrometry from direct imaging with VLT/SPHERE, as well as absolute astrometry from HIPPARCOS and Gaia eDR3, which yields dynamical masses for HD 112863 B and HD 206505B to be 82.1 ± 2.8 MJup and 79.8 ± 1.8 MJup respectively. From the H and K band photometry from IRDIS data taken with VLT/SPHERE, we determine the spectral types of both HD 112863 B and HD 206505 B to be early-mid L-types.

description: We study phenomena predicted by a renormalizable, CPT invariant extension of the Standard Model that contains higher-dimensional operators and violates Lorentz symmetry explicitly at energies greater than some scale Lambda_{L}. In particular, we consider the Cherenkov radiation in vacuo. In a rather general class of dispersion relations, there exists an energy threshold above which radiation is emitted. The threshold is enhanced in composite particles by a sort of kinematic screening mechanism. We study the energy loss and compare the predictions of our model with known experimental bounds on Lorentz violating parameters and observations of ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays. We argue that the scale of Lorentz violation Lambda_{L} (with preserved CPT invariance) can be smaller than the Planck scale, actually as small as 10^{14}-10^{15} GeV. Our model also predicts the Cherenkov radiation of neutral particles.

description:
Handheld and portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometers have evolved in recent years from being primarily used as metal sorting tools in scrap yards to becoming instruments of high analytical performance. However, this trend has not been fully embraced by the academic and research community, and there are multiple reasons for this. In this presentation we will provide a comprehensive description of the capabilities of these devices, particularly in the context in geo-analysis and archeometric research. We will cover typical analytical performance indicators, including instrument stability, limits of detection, precision and accuracy, as well as reproducibility in quantification. Furthermore, we will discuss how the hardware concept of the instrument influences its performance, allowing for a better understanding of the instrument's capabilities and limitations.

As a practical example, we will focus on the analysis of archaeological ceramics using the TRACER 5g. Ceramic analysis is a common research field in archaeometry that presents additional complexities for accurate elemental characterization. For this application, we will discuss strategies for optimizing measurement time and analytical parameters, tuning existing calibrations for the samples, validating results for publication requirements, and address the challenges of non-invasive analysis of precious artifacts. Additionally, we will explore how the combination of sample characteristics, analytical questions, and XRF physics are directly connected in this context. The presentation will provide a realistic assessment of the analytical performance of portable XRF instruments by offering a robust analytical evaluation that dispels existing myths surrounding this technique.

description: Il presente studio si pone l?obiettivo di investigare sulle relazioni tra sindacati e gruppi auto organizzati di lavoratori in un contesto di crisi della rappresentanza sindacale tradizionale, guardando ad un settore peculiare: i servizi sociali esternalizzati. La ricerca verte in particolare sul ruolo dei movimenti sociali nella revitalizzazione del sindacalismo nell?Europa meridionale, dove i sindacati tradizionali hanno goduto di relazioni privilegiate con le istituzioni, entrate in declino con l?avvento della crisi economica. Per questo motivo, si guarder� in particolare a due organizzazioni con un percorso di sviluppo istituzionale simile, ma una diversa traiettoria in termini di movimento del lavoro durante la crisi: Comisiones Obreras in Spagna e Confederazione Generale Italiana del Lavoro in Italia. Infatti, a differenza dell?Italia, i sindacati spagnoli si sono imbattuti in un?ondata di movimenti sociali altamente critici nei loro confronti. Le principali domande di ricerca sono: 1) che fattori influenzano le relazioni tra sindacati e gruppi auto organizzati di lavoratori e 2) se un?ondata di movimenti sociali a livello nazionale influenza il modo in cui i vari attori del movimento del lavoro interagiscono a livello locale.

description: We investigate the phenomenology of Effective Supersymmetry (ESUSY) models wherein electroweak gauginos and third generation scalars have masses up to about 1~TeV while first and second generation scalars lie in the multi-TeV range. Such models ameliorate the SUSY flavor and CP problems via a decoupling solution, while at the same time maintaining naturalness. In our analysis, we assume independent GUT scale mass parameters for third and first/second generation scalars and for the Higgs scalars, in addition to m_{1/2}, \tanβand A_0, and require radiative electroweak symmetry breaking as usual. We analyse the parameter space which is consistent with current constraints, by means of a Markov Chain Monte Carlo scan. The lightest MSSM particle (LMP) is mostly, but not always the lightest neutralino, and moreover, the thermal relic density of the neutralino LMP is frequently very large. These models may phenomenologically be perfectly viable if the LMP before nucleosynthesis decays into the axino plus SM particles. Dark matter is then an axion/axino mixture. At the LHC, the most important production mechanisms are gluino production (for m_{1/2} ~<700~GeV) and third generation squark production, while SUSY events rich in b-jets are the hallmark of the ESUSY scenario. We present a set of ESUSY benchmark points with characteristic features and discuss their LHC phenomenology.

description: Given the dynamic nature of the Web, security measurements on it suffer from reproducibility issues. In this paper we take a systematic look into the potential of using web archives for web security measurements. We first evaluate an extensive set of web archives as potential sources of archival data, showing the superiority of the Internet Archive with respect to its competitors. We then assess the appropriateness of the Internet Archive for historical web security measurements, detecting subtleties and possible pitfalls in its adoption. Finally, we investigate the feasibility of using the Internet Archive to simulate live security measurements, using recent archival data in place of live data. Our analysis shows that archive-based security measurements are a promising alternative to traditional live security measurements, yet reproducible by design. As an important contribution, we identify insights and best practices for future archive-based security measurements.
NEURONAL TRANSDIFFERENTIATION: UNCOVERING THE ROLE OF MLL1 AND MLL2 DURING LINEAGE CONVERSION
Creators: name: BARBAGIOVANNI, GIULIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2017

description: Neuronal transdifferentiation entails the direct conversion between mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and induced neuronal cells (iNs), through the expression of the neuronal-specific transcription factors Brn2, Ascl1 and Myt1l (i.e., BAM factors). To date it is still unclear how BAM factors guide such epigenetic remodelling necessary to drive transdifferentiation. Some hints suggest the involvement of MLL1 and MLL2, two H3K4 trimethylases belonging to the Trithorax protein family, in both in vivo and in vitro neuronal differentiation. Therefore, I studied their role during MEF-to-iNs transdifferentiation. I showed that the absence of MLL1 does not affect either transdifferentiation efficiency or iNs neuronal morphology, but only the survival rate. On the contrary, transdifferentiation efficiency and neurite elongation are compromised in Mll2-/- iNs. The co-deletion of Mll1 and Mll2 impinges on cell viability as the knock-out of Mll1 and further exacerbates the Mll2-/- transdifferentiation defect, causing iNs to have very short neurites. These results suggest a role for MLL2-mediated H3K4 methylation in the control of transdifferentiation. Therefore, I defined the direct and indirect MLL2 targets through the integrative analysis of: i) the RNA-seq on iNs, ii) the ChIP-seq for MENIN, the specific common subunit of MLL1 and MLL2, and iii) the H3K4me3 ChIP-seq. I showed that in absence of Mll2 a conspicuous fraction of the transcriptome is down-regulated and/or looses the H3K4me3 mark, therefore highlighting the absence of MLL1-mediated compensation. Moreover, many deregulated genes (either differentially expressed or differentially marked by H3K4me3) are linked to neuronal differentiation and maturation, as expected by the phenotype analysis.

description: This paper reports on the application of a discrete choice experiment survey designed to measure consumer preferences for sustainability attributes in the Shanghai yogurt market. Our results show that many consumers are willing to pay a premium for sustainability attributes that can play a role in ameliorating the environmental and societal pressures associated with agricultural intensification and production. This suggests that potential opportunities may exist for dairy companies to support developing the role of sustainability attributes in consumer choices as an avenue for product diversification that contributes to profitability as well as sustainability goals.

description: In some massive stars, magnetic fields are thought to confine the outflowing radiatively-driven wind. Although theoretical models and MHD simulations are able to illustrate the dynamics of such a magnetized wind, the impact of this wind-field interaction on the observable properties of a magnetic star - X-ray emission, photometric and spectral variability - is still unclear. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between magnetism, stellar winds and X-ray emission of OB stars, by providing empirical observations and confronting theory. In conjunction with the COUP survey of the Orion Nebula Cluster, we carried out spectropolarimatric ESPaDOnS observations to determine the magnetic properties of massive OB stars of this cluster.

description: Crystalline silicate is an important tracer for the evolution of dust, the main building block of planet formation. In an inner protoplanetary disk, amorphous silicates are annealed by the high temperature and form crystalline silicates. These crystalline silicates are radially and vertically distributed by disk turbulence, radial drift, and radial diffusion. In this project, we study how the distributed crystalline silicates affect mind-infrared observation from the MIRI in the recently launched JWST. The MIRI can observe the inner protoplanetary disks in mid-infrared wavelength but only the upper layer due to the optically thick disk. Thus, we also study how the MIRI observation represents the crystalline silicates in the midplane, where planets are mainly formed. From the comparison between radial and vertical distribution timescales, we conclude crystalline silicates in an observation well represent the midplane. In our modeled T-Tauri disk, different sizes of dust get crystallized in different ranges of the inner disk and distributed up to a few AU by the radial transport. As the results, the spatial distribution affects feature strengths in mid-infrared wavelength.

description: Given the dynamic nature of the Web, security measurements on it suffer from reproducibility issues. In this paper we take a systematic look into the potential of using web archives for web security measurements. We first evaluate an extensive set of web archives as potential sources of archival data, showing the superiority of the Internet Archive with respect to its competitors. We then assess the appropriateness of the Internet Archive for historical web security measurements, detecting subtleties and possible pitfalls in its adoption. Finally, we investigate the feasibility of using the Internet Archive to simulate live security measurements, using recent archival data in place of live data. Our analysis shows that archive-based security measurements are a promising alternative to traditional live security measurements, yet reproducible by design. As an important contribution, we identify insights and best practices for future archive-based security measurements.

description:
The Holstein interglacial is classified as the period between the end of the Elster glaciation to the beginning of the Fuhne glaciation. The deposits in Brandenburg are supplied by limnic to fluviatile sedimentary regimes. Thus, the deposits consist of organic mud and silt as well as bituminous peat. Related to higher energetic levels, the fluvial associated deposits are made up of sand. The stratigraphic classification is based on palynostratigraphy and on the occurrence of the index fossil Viviparus diluvianus.

In this study, a new map is constructed that focuses on the distribution of limnetic sediments. Contrary to this, the existing maps summarise the limnetic and fluviatile deposits including the sediments of the lower Saale. Two sets of maps have been published since 1971 (Lithofazieskarte Quartär - scale 1:50 000 and Zwirner & Ziermann 2010 - scale 1:1 000 000).

Based on more than 400 palynostratigraphically proven locations (via drillings), a map will be published that achieves a significant extension and clarification of the distribution of the limnetic Holstein. The accumulation area of these deposits can be associated with numerous channel systems and paleo-basins initiated during the Elster glaciation. Furthermore, transgressive pathways are revised in this study. These were derived from Holstein Stage sea-level changes that resulted in transgressive and regressive successions with brackish to marine facies in northwest Brandenburg.

title: Milankovitch climate control of hyperpycnal flow sedimentation in an Early Cretaceous succession (Ri Qing Wei Basin, China)

description:
Milankovitch forcing exerts a major control on climate that is recorded in the sedimentary rock record. However, its influence on hyperpycnal flow sedimentation is largely unknown. Hyperpycnites, sediments resulting from hyperpycnal flows, which are related to climate through flood frequency and magnitude, may be valuable tools for understanding aspects of Earth’s paleoclimate. Their origin and distinctive layering have been explained by various mechanisms, including frequency of river breaches, sudden increase in the global hydrological cycle, sea-level fluctuations, and variations in sediment supply. Their potential link to paleoclimate variations commonly remains unexplored in detail. Here we use cyclostratigraphic analysis combined with published high precision U-Pb dating to investigate the influence of Milankovitch forcing on their deposition. A continuous drill core of the ~125-million-year-old Early Cretaceous Laiyang Formation (eastern China) reveals well-defined cyclic hyperpycnal flow patterns. The radioisotopic dating and magnetostratigraphy constrains the formation’s average sedimentation rate, and links the observed cycles to precession, obliquity and mainly orbital eccentricity cycles. Orbital parameters most likely paced the delivery of the hyperpycnal flow sediments mainly by river- and delta-supplied currents from non-marine basin immediately; we conclude that Milankovitch cycles exerted a primary control on hyperpycnal flow sedimentation. Sediment accumulation rates determined from 400 kyr cycle age model show a trend of decreasing and then increasing throughout the Laiyang Formation, which was synchronized with the evolution of sedimentary environment controlled by tectonic activity. This study shows that orbitally-induced climate change can also acted as principle driver on deep-marine terrigenous sediment accumulation within a tectonically active basin.

description: We present an angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy study of YBa2Cu3O7-delta films in situ grown by pulsed laser deposition. We have successfully produced underdoped surfaces with ordered oxygen vacancies within the CuO chains resulting in a clear ortho-II band folding of the Fermi surface. This indicates that order within the CuO chains affects the electronic properties of the CuO2 planes. Our results highlight the importance of having not only the correct surface carrier concentration, but also a very well ordered and clean surface in order that photoemission data on this compound be representative of the bulk.

Diagnosing disparities : unsettling settler-colonial standards of health and normality in Canada and the United States
Creators: name: Press, Sara Victoria

description: My dissertation offers an interdisciplinary analysis of settler-colonial rhetorics of health and illness in English-speaking Canada and the United States, demonstrating how “otherness” and “abnormality” are often amplified or misrepresented in relation to a presumed norm of able-bodied white health. By interrogating specific instances of systemic racism and biases in medical practice and pedagogy from the early twentieth century to present, I illuminate inequalities in North American society that remain significant obstacles to healthcare. Diagnosing these disparities allows me to identify and challenge rhetorics of health and citizenship, while rendering clearer the health privileges associated with whiteness. What bodies are read as normal? How do medical norms create barriers to equitable healthcare? And how can we decouple these medical norms from institutionalized whiteness? My research is both problem- and place-based: I focus on Canada and the US due to their geographical proximity, their settler-colonial legacies, and the white supremacy that has characterized both nations’ public policies. While politics, demographics, and healthcare models vary significantly between Canada and the US, I highlight some of the transnational strategies—involving eugenics, race science, physical education programs for national fitness, and print media propaganda—through which medical and governmental authorities have independently and collectively conflated white supremacist norms with health and citizenship. My dissertation chapters build upon historical, rhetorical, and literary analyses. I deploy multidisciplinary methodologies to explore “normality” and standardization from various vantage points, and I consider the ways in which these ideas move across different discursive contexts. The rhetoric of health and medicine (RHM) analyzes the impact of language and persuasion in health communication, medical encounters, and scientific writing. Combining RHM with postcolonial theory allows me to examine power dynamics that impact medical encounters in settler-colonial states. I draw on literary analysis to show how fiction and non-fiction can offer insights into the lives of marginalized people and provide counternarratives that critique the ostensible objectivity of scientific and medical discourses. Historicizing the changing conceptions of health and normality helps me contextualize and problematize contemporary medical practices as I examine the stereotypes and rhetorical subtexts of Standardized Patient Programs (SPPs) in medical schools.
