title: Monitoring of Alpine Snow Conditions Using C-Band SAR
Creators: name: Navacchi, Claudio

Subjects: subject: Remote sensing

description: The cryosphere is an essential part of the Earth's climate system, even more in the light of climate change actively impacting the extent of polar ice caps, glaciers and snow. Regions in interaction with these parts of the cryosphere must adapt to challenging conditions, as slight changes in temperature can have irreversible consequences. Informations about the state of a snow pack and ongoing processes within can be a valuable aid, e.g. for avalanche risk management, hydrological run-off models and tourism development. This thesis focuses on revealing connections between various snow parameters, e.g. grain size, snow height or snow wetness, and high-resolution C-band SAR backscatter from ESA's Sentinel missions. Water has a very significant effect in the C-band for different states of aggregation (e.g., solid, liquid) offering a profound physical basis for investigating these relationships in alpine areas with a vast variety of snow conditions. For this case study, an alpine region covering parts of North and South Tyrol, was chosen. Data was acquired for a timespan of over two years, from summer 2015 to autumn 2017. Well-known states of C-band backscatter like sigma naught, which can be related to backscatter from a unit area on ground, hinder a comparison with in-situ snow data due to the inuence of different observation geometries. To overcome this, alternative representations of backscatter, like normalised backscatter, either being normalised by incidence angle or by performing a radiometric (terrain attening) normalisation, are presented in this work. In the former case, linear regression and a novel approach, the piecewise linear percentile slope method, which takes the backscatter distribution of each orbit into account, were used. C-band backscatter was not only analysed as a single band, but also by including cross-polarisation ratios and change detection benefiting from a new method for an automatic, pixel-based reference image selection. Overall, normalised backscatter by means of linear regression and VH polarisation appeared as the best setup, when correlating these data with in-situ snow measurements. Results were enhanced by spatial and temporal Filtering of backscatter data leading to a partial increase in correlation by nearly 0.2. The most meaningful and consistent correlation of -0.64 was found with respect to maximum snow wetness, followed by air temperature (-0.59). Snow height was characterised by the highest correlation (0.67), but its significance is questionable. Concerning snow wetness, change detection performed best, when taking pixels at coldest conditions as reference values into account. Derived maps indicating wet and dry snow could offer useful information for run-off models and for determining fragile snow packs.

description: Interpretation of molecular line observations in tenuous circumstellar disks around young G-type stars in terms of a disk mass is difficult without a model that describes the chemical structure of these disks. This paper now discusses the chemistry in tenuous disks around young solar-type stars based on disk models that take into account the presence of a stellar chromosphere. The example of the disk around a 70 Myr old solar-type star shows that the dissociating radiation from the chromosphere is stronger than the interstellar ultraviolet radiation field up to a distance of ~400 AU from the star. Similar to other studies in this research field, it is found that, due to photodissociation, the CO-to-H_2 ratio is far from the canonical value of 10^-4 for molecular clouds. Moreover, the dust-to-gas mass ratio, as well as the dust grain size play an important role for the H_2 abundance in these disks.

description: Convenient food of poultry origin is becoming increasingly competitive compared to traditional meat and meat products and thus gaining in popularity. Students irregular lifestyle and lack of time to prepare meals make convenient food preferred by them. Attempts were made to learn student respondents’ views on consumption, product offer, as well as purchasing preferences for convenient food of poultry origin. Consumers surveyed indicated that they often consumed elements of poultry carcasses and concentrates such as bouillon cubes, and instant soups. Majority of respondents affirmed that offers of convenient poultry products were satisfactory. Ease of meals preparation and time – saving were two factors that contributed significantly to purchasing preferences. In the opinion of those surveyed low price could be the key factor that influenced frequent purchases of convenient food.

description: Deep neural networks have revolutionized medical image analysis and disease diagnosis. Despite their impressive performance, it is difficult to generate well-calibrated probabilistic outputs for such networks, which makes them uninterpretable black boxes. Bayesian neural networks provide a principled approach for modelling uncertainty and increasing patient safety, but they have a large computational overhead and provide limited improvement in calibration. In this work, by taking skin lesion classification as an example task, we show that by shifting Bayesian inference to the functional space we can craft meaningful priors that give better calibrated uncertainty estimates at a much lower computational cost.

subject: Poland

description: The main purpose of this work is to analyse the phenomenon of enterprises’ bankruptcy in Poland in 2004-2013 and attempt to build regression models defining the relationship between the number of bankrupted companies and selected macroeconomic parameters of the national economy. The analysis is based on Coface Poland reports presenting the phenomenon of bankruptcy in Poland of branches, provinces, legal forms of companies and types of bankruptcy proceedings. Studies have shown that the greatest risk of bankruptcy refers to metals production and fabricated metal products enterprises, manufacture of food products and beverages, wholesale trade, construction, micro and small enterprises, enterprises under the age of 10 years and companies from Mazovia region, Silesia and Lower Silesia. The estimated parameters of the regression models showed that the number of bankruptcies in Poland is strongly determined i.a. by the number of registered companies, GDP growth, dynamics of changes in fixed capital formation and changes in foreign exchange rates.

description: Traffic congestion has become one of the major problems in the urban cities according to the increasing number of vehicles in those cities, obsolete technologies used on the roads of those cities, inappropriate road design, and many other reasons. So, that has urged the need for a more accurate traffic light controlling system; one that will help in maintaining high stability at all levels of demand. This paper introduces a dynamic traffic light phase plan protocol for Single-Isolated Intersections. The developed controlling method was compared with four other methods and showed a good performance in terms of reducing the average and maximum queue lengths, optimizing the given green time amount as needed, and increased the intersections throughput (increased the given green time utilization). In addition, it maintained a good traffic light stability at all levels of demand.

description: At present several groups are analyzing astrophysical data in a search for time-variation of the fine structure constant $α$. Here we discuss how to exclude systematic effects caused by the changes in the isotope abundances during the evolution of the universe. We suggest using particular combinations of the transition frequencies of O II, Al II, Al III, Si II and Mn II as anchors, which are insensitive to $α$-variation and to changes in isotope abundances. These anchors can be used to determine the cosmological redshift. Then, one can use other combinations of frequencies as probes for the time-variation of $α$ and another set as probes for the isotopic abundances. In this way it is possible to eliminate one source of the systematic errors in the search for $α$-variation and get new information about evolution of the isotopes. On the level of accuracy that has already been reached in the search for $α$-variation it is possible to see ~10% changes in isotope abundances of Si and Ni.

description: We present an INTEGRAL data analysis of the X-ray transient \object{SAX J2103.5+4545} during two outbursts detected in December 2002. The INTEGRAL coordinates and error circle agree with the position of the recently proposed optical counterpart. A power-law plus cut-off model provided a good fit to the 4-150 keV spectrum yielding a photon index of 1.0+-0.1, a cut-off energy E_cut=7.6+-2.0 keV and a folding energy E_fold=30.9+-2.5 keV. The X-ray luminosity in the 4-150 keV energy range was found to be 6.0x10^36 erg/s, assuming a distance of 6.5 kpc. This luminosity, together with the derived photon index, indicate that the source is in a bright state. A 354.9$+-0.5 second pulse period is measured. This value is significantly smaller than previous measurements, indicating a long-term spin-up episode.

description: Field experimental research in Italy have shown that citizens tend to avoid taking seats next to immigrants (Zhang, Gereke, & Baldassarri, 2022). This finding aligns with the discourse on everyday discrimination, where immigrants experience discrimination on a daily basis. However, the reasons for this discrimination remains unclear. In addition, the nature of discrimination against immigrants in non-Western contexts has not been fully explored. To address these gaps, we aim to conduct survey experiments that vary factors such as the immigrants’ race, level of assimilation, and target countries.

description: Summary and evaluation of implemented, in the last financial perspective of EU, policies should be the basis for development of new directions and principles of European spending. This article presents an issue of implementation of the territorial dimension in cohesion policy. The spatial concentration of resources allocated to rural development under the Regional Operational Programme for the Lower Silesia 2007-2013 was analysed. Furthermore, the documents’ analysis to determine development opportunities for these areas in the new financial perspective were undertaken. The research shows inadequate recognition of the territorial dimension in the current implementation of EU policies. However, the results highlights the possibility of using a new instrument, which are Integrated Territorial Investments, in order to strengthen the geographical factors in the allocation of support.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We consider the problem of an harmonic oscillator coupled to a scalar field in the framework of recently introduced dressed coordinates. We compute all the probabilities associated with the decay process of an excited level of the oscillator. Instead of doing direct quantum mechanical calculations we establish some sum rules from which we infer the probabilities associated to the different decay processes of the oscillator. Thus, the sum rules allows to show that the transition probabilities between excited levels follow a binomial distribution.

description: Ti$_3$C$_2$T$_X$ nano-sheets (MXenes) are an emerging class of two-dimensional materials with outstanding potential to be employed in energy storage, catalysis, and triboelectric applications, on length scales ranging from the nano- to macroscopic. Despite rapidly accelerating interest in this new class of materials, their nanoscale frictional properties and in particular, their potential for solid lubrication on the nanoscale, have not been explored in detail yet. In this short communication, we present the first results on the nanoscale frictional characteristics of MXenes, in the form of a friction map obtained on an isolated Ti$_3$C$_2$T$_x$ nano-sheet deposited on a silicon dioxide substrate via friction force microscopy. Our experiments reveal that few-layer Ti$_3$C$_2$T$_x$ nano-sheets indeed act as solid lubricants on the nanoscale, reducing friction on the silicon dioxide substrates, although not as effectively as few-layer graphene. The results reported here pave the way for further studies focusing on nanoscale solid lubrication achieved by Ti$_3$C$_2$T$_X$ (MXene) nano-sheets.

description: The Maunder Minimum (1645-1715) is currently considered the only grand minimum within telescopic sunspot observations since 1610. During this epoch, the Sun was extremely quiet and unusually free from sunspots. However, despite reduced frequency, candidate aurorae were reported in the mid-European sector during this period and have been associated with occurrences of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs), whereas some of them have been identified as misinterpretations. Here, we have analysed reports of candidate aurorae on 1 June 1680 with simultaneous observations in mid-Europe, and compared their descriptions with visual accounts of early modern aurorae. Most contemporary sunspot drawings from 22, 24, and 27 May 1680 have shown that this apparent sunspot may have been a source of ICMEs, which caused the reported candidate aurorae. On the other hand, its intensity estimate shows that the magnetic storm during this candidate aurora was probably within the capability of the storms derived from the corotating interaction region (CIR). Therefore, we accommodate both ICMEs and CIRs as their possible origin. This interpretation is probably applicable to the candidate aurorae in the often-cited Hungarian catalogue, on the basis of the reconstructed margin of their equatorward auroral boundary. Moreover, this catalogue itself has clarified that the considerable candidates during the MM were probably misinterpretations. Therefore, frequency of the auroral visibility in Hungary was probably lower than previously considered and agree more with the generally slow solar wind in the existing reconstructions, whereas sporadic occurrences of sunspots and coronal holes still caused occasional geomagnetic storms.

description: We obtain constraints on the Yukawa-type corrections to Newton's gravitational law and on the coupling constant of axionlike particles to nucleons following from the experiment on measuring the Casimir force between an Au-coated microsphere and a silicon carbide plate. For this purpose, both the Yukawa-type force and the force due to two-axion exchange between nucleons are calculated in the experimental configuration. In the interaction range of Yukawa force exceeding 1 nm and for axion masses above 17.8 eV, the obtained constraints are much stronger than those found previously from measuring the lateral Casimir force between sinusoidally corrugated surfaces. These results are compared with the results of other laboratory experiments on constraining non-Newtonian gravity and axionlike particles in the relevant interaction ranges.

description: Theoretical treatments of the BCS-BEC crossover need to provide as accurate as possible descriptions of the two regimes where the diluteness condition applies, either in terms of the constituent fermions (BCS limit) or of the composite bosons which form as bound-fermion pairs (BEC limit). This has to occur via a single fermionic theory that bridges across these two limiting representations. In this paper, we set up successive improvements of the fermionic theory, that result into composite bosons described at the level of either the Bogoliubov or the Popov approximations for point-like bosons. This work bears on the recent experimental advances on the BCS-BEC crossover with trapped Fermi atoms, which show the need for accurate theoretical descriptions of BEC side of the crossover.

description: The main aim of this article is to analyse and asses spatial diversity and seasonality of unemployment rate on labour market in selected seaside districts (rural, urban and rural-urban) in the Zachodniopomorskie voivodeship in Poland. The following thesis was formulated: the location of the examined districts in the coastal zone determines their nature tourism and similar behaviour in the observed seasonal unemployment changes. Seasonal changes of the monthly unemployment rate were studied in the period 2001--2012. Data from the Central Statistical Office, Regional Data Bank and the Regional Labour Office in Szczecin were used in research process. The results confirm the authors’ assumptions about a relatively high sensitivity of the surveyed markets to seasonal changes, which is determined by the tourist nature of the area of the surveyed districts. There is no reason to assess that all the coastal districts react in a similar way. It has been observed that rural markets are more sensitive to seasonal unemployment changes in relation to the urban markets.

description: We present results from a new XMM-Newton observation of the high-redshift quasar RXJ1028.6-0844 at a redshift of 4.276. The soft X-ray spectral flattening, as reported by a study with ASCA previously (Yuan et al. 2000, ApJ 545, 625), is confirmed to be present, however, with reduced column density when modelled by absorption. The inferred column density for absorption intrinsic to the quasar is 2.1(+0.4-0.3)x10^22 (cm^-2) for cold matter, and higher for ionised gas. The spectral flattening shows remarkable similarity with those of two similar objects, GB1428+4217 (Worsley et al. 2004, MNRAS 350, L67) and PMNJ0525-3343 (Worsley et al. 2004, MNRAS 350, 207). The results improve upon those obtained from a previous short-exposure observation for RXJ1028.6-0844 with XMM-Newton (Grupe et al. 2004, AJ 127, 1). A comparative study of the two XMM-Newton observations reveals a change in the power-law photon index from Gamma ~1.3 to 1.5 on timescales of about one year. A tentative excess emission feature in the rest-frame 5-10keV band is suggested, which is similar to that marginally suggested for GB1428+4217.

We performed cladistic analyses using equal (EW) and also implied weighting (IW) based on 56 terminals (23 belonging to the ingroup) and 115 morphological characters, including male and female genitalia. Spartocerini was polyphyletic both under EW and IW because Molchina was nested in Mictini. We remove Molchina from Spartocerini and consider the genus as incertae sedis. Spartocera, Eubule, and Sephina were not recovered as monophyletic. Sephina pubera (Erichson) is considered as incertae sedis within Spartocerini, Eubule ampliata Valdés is transferred to Spartocera as a new combination, and Mamurius is included in Anisoscelini.

description: VAT for farm machinery has been increased from 0 to 22% level since the accession to the EU. This was a main reason for rise in prices of a set of 34 farm machines which in June 2004 was by 28.1% higher than a year earlier. Thanks to the decrease in prices of the most expensive farm machines – harvester threshers, during the years 2006--2009 the price level was quite stable, even though prices of most machines rose. From 2010 moderate, but generally higher than the inflation rate rise in price of the set was observed. During the years 2003-2013 the price of the set of 34 farm machines grew more expensive by 66.7%, whilst the inflation index increased by 32.6%. In 2004, 2005, 2010 and 2013 the rate of increase of prices of farm machines was higher than dynamics of the inflation index (relatively by 16.8, 15.5, 3.5 and 3.1 per cent points). In spite of machinery price growth, the equivalent of the set of 34 machines in form of mass or volume of swine and cattle for slaughter, wheat, milk and potato was in 2013 by 1.0 to 33.3% lower than in 2003. The above mentioned set as related to the unit of mass of rye and sugar beet was by 4.1 and 40.3% more expensive.

description: A common and effective form of social touch is stroking on the forearm. We seek to replicate this stroking sensation using haptic illusions. This work compares two methods that provide sequential discrete stimulation: sequential normal indentation and sequential lateral skin-slip using discrete actuators. Our goals are to understand which form of stimulation more effectively creates a continuous stroking sensation, and how many discrete contact points are needed. We performed a study with 20 participants in which they rated sensations from the haptic devices on continuity and pleasantness. We found that lateral skin-slip created a more continuous sensation, and decreasing the number of contact points decreased the continuity. These results inform the design of future wearable haptic devices and the creation of haptic signals for effective social communication.

description: We explore the significance of bars in triggering central star formation (SF) and AGN activity for spiral galaxy evolution using a volume-limited sample with $0.02070\rm km s^{-1}$ selected from SDSS DR7. On a central SF rate-$σ$ plane, we measure the fraction of galaxies with strong bars in our sample and also the AGN fractions for barred and non-barred galaxies, respectively. The comparison between the bar and AGN fractions reveals a causal connection between the two phenomena of SF quenching and AGN activity. A massive BH and abundant gas fuels are sufficient conditions to trigger AGNs. We infer that the AGNs triggered by satisfying the two conditions drive the strong AGN feedback, suddenly suppressing the central SF and leaving the SF sequence. We find that in galaxies where either of the two conditions is not sufficient, bars are a great help for the AGN triggering, accelerating the entire process of evolution, which is particularly evident in pseudo-bulge galaxies. All of our findings are obtained only when plotted in terms of their central velocity dispersion and central SFR (not galactic scale SFR), indicating that the AGN-driven SF quenching is confined in the central kpc region.

description: We analyze the low energy spectrum of bound states of the N=1 SU(2) SUSY Yang-Mills Theory (SYM). This work continues the investigation of the non-perturbative properties of SYM by Monte Carlo simulations in the Wilson discretization with dynamical gluinos. The dynamics of the gluinos is included by the Two-Step Multi-Bosonic Algorithm (TSMB) for dynamical fermions. A new set of configurations has been generated on a 16^3x32 lattice at beta=2.3 and kappa=0.194. The analysis also includes sets of configurations previously generated on a smaller (12^3x24) lattice at kappa=0.1925, 0.194 and 0.1955. Guided by predictions from low energy Lagrangians, we consider spin-1/2, scalar and pseudoscalar particles. The spectrum of SYM is a challenging subject of investigation because of the extremely noisy correlators. In particular, meson-like correlators contain disconnected contributions. The larger time-extention of the 16^3x32 lattice allows to observe two-state signals in the effective mass. Finite-volume effects are monitored by comparing results from the two lattice sizes.

description: The development of smart polymer materials is reviewed and illustrated. Important examples of these polymers include conducting polymers, ionic gels, stimulus-response be used polymers, liquid crystalline polymers and piezoelectric materials, which have desirable properties for use in wearable sensors. This review outlines the mode of action in these types of smart polymers systems for utilisation as wearable sensors. Categories of wearable sensors are considered as tattoo-like designs, patch-like, textile-based, and contact lens-based sensors. The advantages and disadvantages of each sensor types are considered together with information on the typical performance. The research gap linking smart polymer materials to wearable sensors with integrated power systems is highlighted. Smart polymer systems may be used as part of a holistic approach to improve wearable devices and accelerate the integration of wearable sensors and power systems, particularly in health care.
Instant preheating in a scale invariant two measures theory

description: The instant preheating mechanism in the framework of a scale invariant two measures theory is studied. We introduce this mechanism into a non oscillating inflationary model as another possible solution to the reheating of the universe in this theory. In this framework, we consider that the model includes two scalar matter fields, the first a dilaton field, that transforms under scale transformations and it will be considered also as the field that drives inflation and the second, a scalar field which will interact with the inflaton through an effective potential. By assuming this interaction term, we obtain a scenario of instant radiation or decay of particles according to the domain the effective mass of the field that interacts with the inflaton. Also, we consider a scale invariant Yukawa interaction and then after performing the transition to the physical Einstein frame we obtain an expression for the decay rate from our scalar field going into two fermions. Besides, from specific decay rates, different constraints and bounds for the coupling parameters associated with our model are found.

description: The bullish movement in commodity prices during the 2000s can be explained based on structural and conjectural factors. In addition, it was argued that this price movement was amplified by the contagion from the derivative markets. In this context, these contracts were one of the aspects responsible for an increase in cash price volatility. Thus, this paper evaluated the influence of trading activity (volume and open interest) and futures price volatility in spot price volatility for arabica coffee and live cattle in Brazilian markets. Granger causality tests, forecast error variance decomposition, considering vector autoregression models, and tests of causality in variance, based on the cross-correlation function and on the idea of Lagrange multiplier were conducted. The results showed that, during the period considered, in most cases, an unexpected movement in trading volume and variability of futures prices changed the pattern of spot price volatility.

description: Historiquement, la Tunisie est toujours en quête d’une sécurité alimentaire. Les résultats ont été toujours insatisfaisants. Le rôle de l’Etat s’est concentré sur un mode de régulation par les finances publiques. Ce mode a rempli des fonctions essentielles en préservant certains équilibres d’ordres politique, économique et social. Toutefois, le contexte de crise actuelle aux niveaux alimentaire et financier débouche sur une situation insoutenable. Dès lors, il est impératif d’explorer des voies de réformes alternatives. Dans ce cadre, ce travail vise à élucider le rôle des négociations contractuelles et à montrer l’importance de l’adhésion des producteurs isolés dans des coopératives agricoles de services. Dans ce sens, une enquête a été menée dans trois régions de la Tunisie en 2010. Les résultats montrent que la performance prix et qualité est nettement plus élevée en présence d’unions des producteurs et ce grâce à l’établissement des contrats mieux appropriés.

description: Abstract The future of work is changing rapidly as result of fast technological developments, decarbonization and social upheavals. Thus, employees need a new skillset to be successful in the future workforce. However, current approaches for the identification of future skills are either based on s small sample of expert opinions or the result of researchers interpreting the results of data-driven approaches and thus not meaningful for the stakeholders. Against this background, we propose a novel process for the identification of future skills incorporating a data-driven approach with expert interviews. This enables identifying future skills that are comprehensive and representative for a whole industry and region as well as meaningful for the stakeholders. We demonstrate the applicability and utility of our process by means of a case study, where we identify 33 future skills for the manufacturing industry in Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany. Our work contributes to the identification of comprehensive and representative future skills (for whole industries).
