Structure and temporal dynamics of marine biodiversity in the Terra Nova Bay area (Ross Sea, Antarctica) analysed through DNA barcoding and metabarcoding: A standardized and systematic approach for the construction of a ?DNA Barcode? library.
Creators: name: CECCHETTO, MATTEO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: Aims and structure of the thesis: The firs objective of this thesis consisted in the quantification of the reference library completeness for the Cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) barcode of metazoan species occurring in the Ross Sea MPA and in identifying which taxonomic groups in the last decades were investigated by using ?DNA barcode? techniques performed in the Southern Ocean. In order to do that, all the available sequence data on major public repositories were gathered and analyzed. A collection of COI sequences amplified from specimen of the Italian National Antarctic Museum (MNA) was produced and aggregated to the latter to assemble the first global Ross Sea reference library of metazoan COI barcoding sequences. The potentialities of ?DNA metabarcoding? techniques applied to the analysis of Antarctic biological communities were also evaluated in Terra Nova Bay (TNB) by focusing on the development of macrozoobenthic pioneering communities colonizing artificial structures over a period of three years and on nanoplankton temporal short-term dynamics in two consecutive years. These studies were conducted using innovative sampling methodologies and experiments and differed not only for the investigated community, but also for the sampling frequency, timing and study purposes. Due to the peculiarities of the three analyses, these will be detailed in three separate chapters. Each chapter is composed by its specific ?Introduction? to the concepts discussed in that study, followed by a section on ?Materials and Methods? and a joint section with the ?Results and Discussion?. Considering that the different chapters, notwithstanding the fact that they pertain to the same, general topic of research, greatly differs in the overall design, as mentioned earlier, no general Discussion for the entire thesis was produced. Instead, an Introduction, discussing the most general topics covered by the entire thesis, is presented at first (i.e. the ?Thesis Introduction?), whereas the thesis? Conclusions, considering all the outcomes reported in the different chapters, will be presented at the end of the whole thesis (?Thesis Conclusions?).

description: Unemployment and the Real Wage Gap: A Reappraisal of the German Experience. - The major European economies experienced a rise in unemployment since the late 1970s. At the same time, the real wage gap, a widely used measure of wage pressure, declined. This paper develops an analytical framework that relates the two phenomena. Particular emphasis is placed on the interaction of capital accumulation, wage setting and labour demand. The model is applied to the particular case of Germany and found to be consistent with the observed behaviour of wages, investment, output and employment.
Investigating business process elements: a journey from the field of Business Process Management to ontological analysis, and back
Creators: name: ADAMO, GRETA

Year: 2020

description: Business process modelling languages (BPMLs) typically enable the representation of business processes via the creation of process models, which are constructed using the elements and graphical symbols of the BPML itself. Despite the wide literature on business process modelling languages, on the comparison between graphical components of different languages, on the development and enrichment of new and existing notations, and the numerous definitions of what a business process is, the BPM community still lacks a robust (ontological) characterisation of the elements involved in business process models and, even more importantly, of the very notion of business process. While some efforts have been done towards this direction, the majority of works in this area focuses on the analysis of the behavioural (control flow) aspects of process models only, thus neglecting other central modelling elements, such as those denoting process participants (e.g., data objects, actors), relationships among activities, goals, values, and so on. The overall purpose of this PhD thesis is to provide a systematic study of the elements that constitute a business process, based on ontological analysis, and to apply these results back to the Business Process Management field. The major contributions that were achieved in pursuing our overall purpose are: (i) a first comprehensive and systematic investigation of what constitutes a business process meta-model in literature, and a definition of what we call a literature-based business process meta-model starting from the different business process meta-models proposed in the literature; (ii) the ontological analysis of four business process elements (event, participant, relationship among activities, and goal), which were identified as missing or problematic in the literature and in the literature-based meta-model; (iii) the revision of the literature-based business process meta-model that incorporates the analysis of the four investigated business process elements - event, participant, relationship among activities and goal; and (iv) the definition and evaluation of a notation that enriches the relationships between activities by including the notions of occurrence dependences and rationales.

description: The aim of the thesis is to investigate the nineteenth-century evolution of an Italian maritime community, Camogli, within the broader framework of the technological transition from sail to steam. Thus, the thesis aims to shed light on an understudied process, at least with regard to the Mediterranean merchant marines, by adopting a micro-global perspective focused on the community of Camogli, its fleet and its seafarers. In so doing, the thesis outline the evolution of the maritime activities of the community, from the ?local? cabotage scale to the ?global? oceanic tramp shipping, and aims to examine the transformations occurred in its shipping business and maritime labour, throughout a process which led to the gradual decline of the community, culminated in the fleet breakdown during the First World War.

Gioco e Cambiamento Sociale. Fra ricerca educativa, edu-larp e intercultura.
Creators: name: MARAGLIANO, ANDREA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Genova
Year: 2021

description: I giochi possono essere agenti di cambiamento sociale? Possono cio� permettere di esplorare questioni civiche, politiche, valoriali o etiche? Se si, quali sono i fondamenti del gioco da impiegare in questo tracciato? E quali le esperienze culturali, ludiche ed educative vive chi partecipa a questa tipologia di giochi? Sono queste alcune delle domande che hanno aperto la strada a questo lavoro di ricerca, diviso in tre parti. Nel capitolo 1 sono descritte quelle che in questa tesi vengono identificate come le vertebre del gioco, le strutture nascoste, ma portanti. Quando guardiamo al gioco esso ci coinvolge, ammalia e ingaggia come in un carnevale. Ci facciamo rapire dai movimenti ipnotici e seduttivi del corpo giocante, ma cosa pulsa sotto quei vestiti di festa? Quali sono le ossature portanti del corpo del gioco, su cosa si poggia, e come mai risulta essere cos� potente, persuasivo e problematicamente bello? Nel capitolo 2 viene presentato uno studio sperimentale sull?edu-larp ?Youth on The Run? di Croce Rossa Italiana, gioco di ruolo educativo dal vivo sul tema dei richiedenti asilo in Italia. La ricerca presentata avrebbe dovuto riguardare lo studio comparato di due edu-larp a tema migrazione: ?Youth On The Run?, un gioco che simula per 24 ore il viaggio migratorio di una famiglia dalla Somalia fino all?Italia, e ?300, la battaglia delle tendopoli? (Coccia, 2020) che simula per 4 ore una riunione municipale in cui si deve decidere il collocamento di 300 profughi. In seguito alla chiusura degli istituti scolastici per le disposizioni anti contagio COVID-19, non si sono potute svolgere le sperimentazioni del secondo gioco, portando a presentare la ricerca come studio caso singolo del gioco YOTR. La ricerca ha voluto sondare se e come la partecipazione a questo tipo di giochi possa avere impatti significativi sul grado di empatia, di pregiudizio etnico e sulle rappresentazioni rispetto alle tematiche migratorie di chi partecipa. Si � quindi cercato di indagare se e come quegli elementi costitutivi del gioco trattati nel Capitolo 1 possano portare ad un cambiamento sociale effettivo nell?ambito interculturale. Infine, nel capitolo 3 e 4 vengono riportate le analisi e la discussione dei dati, che mostrano come il gioco si costituisca realmente come regione speciale dell?umano e spazio di cambiamento.

description: Recognizing a state under international law is significant as to legal obligation, maintaining diplomatic relations and protecting human rights, etc. This study attempts to analyze whether the Taliban government can be recognized as the legitimate government or not? The study relies on the principles of international law to examine how to effectively control and legitimacy of the recognition. This study does not deal with the political consideration or state practice of recognition. Similarly, the study does not concern with the recognition of Afghanistan, whose legal personality remains intact as Afghanistan has been independent since 1919 despite the country facing several challenges, her permanence cannot be questioned under international law. The study employed doctrinal legal research in which normative approaches are used to evaluate some of the literature to acquire the required legal propositions
Genomic analysis of special types of invasive breast cancer

description: Breast cancer (BC) is a heterogeneous disease encompassing a wide array of categories of cell subpopulations, molecular aberrations and different clinical and pathological behaviors. The most challenging obstacle faced by clinicians is represented by a full understanding of such heterogene- ity and processes of resistance induced after the administration of anti- cancer drugs. For such reasons, BC is classified according to a number of several clinico-pathological and molecular factors. Over 20 histologic spe- cial types of BC are recognized by The World Health Organization (WHO) [1].Special types of BC account for approximately 20% of all newly di- agnosed cases. In spite of these mostly morphohistological classifications, treatment decisions are mostly guided by the size of the primary neoplasm at presentation, the involvement of locoregional lymph nodes, the status of few, actionable biomarkers such as estrogen and progesterone receptors and the amplification of the ERBB2/HER2 gene, as well as by the degree of differentiation and the proliferation index of cancer cells. The morphology of BC cells and their histological architecture, accounting for the identifica- tion of a special type, is almost not taken into account in clinical decisions by most guidelines [2]In this thesis, I focused on the molecular character- ization of special types of BC, with the purpose of identifying potential novel biomarkers of diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutical prediction in such large, but in part neglected, class of tumors. Out of my research, I published two original scientific papers. The first one describes the ge- nomic landscape of four special types of BC: invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), mucinous carcinoma (MUC), micropapillary carcinoma (MPC) and metaplastic carcinoma (META). The second one focuses on the molecular comparison between metaplastic carcinoma and uterine carcinoma, stem- ming from their similar histology and clinical behavior.
Electron transport and quantum-dot energy levels in Z-shaped graphene nanoconstriction with zigzag edges

Subjects: subject: 530 Physik

description: Motivated by recent advances in fabricating graphene nanostructures, we find that an electron can be trapped in Z-shaped graphene nanoconstriction with zigzag edges. The central section of the constriction operates as a single-level quantum dot, as the current flow towards the adjunct sections (rotated by 60 degree) is strongly suppressed due to mismatched valley polarization, although each section in isolation shows maximal quantum value of the conductance $G_0=2e^2/h$. We further show, that the trapping mechanism is insensitive to the details of constriction geometry, except from the case when widths of the two neighboring sections are equal. The relation with earlier studies of electron transport through symmetric and asymmetric kinks with zigzag edges is also established.

description: Trademark licensing is an authorization by the registered proprietor of a trademark granting another person the right to exploit his trademark under stipulated terms and conditions. Trademark licensing has assumed a reputation as an indispensable means of the business organisation on both national and international levels. Licensing is an easy way for the trademark owner to expand his business internationally within a short period. The licensor endures owning the mark and the use of it by the licensee in accustom to the profit of the licensor. A trademark designates the basis or source of a product or service and hence allows customers to make generalizations concerning their quality. When the License agreement does not include quality control over the licensee it is considered as “naked licensing. The trademark proprietor has to ensure the consistency of quality in the good or service, failure to meet terms and conditions s/he shall forfeit the trademark. Failure to exercise control by the licensor over the quality of the goods manufactured, and service provided by the licensee affects the consumer’s right. The purpose of a trademark is to promise goods or services is of consistency of quality. This paper tries to analyse the legal provision of Trade Mark laws to protect consumers in the naked licensing. The study will adopt the doctrinal approach to examine the legal principles and determine the relevant legal provisions that address the naked licensing. The present paper will study whether the TRIPS agreement provides any legal provision to control naked licensing to protect the consumers. This paper also attempts to analyse how is naked licensing evolved specifically in the common law in the USA, UK and India and study is beneficial to the legislature, judge, policymaker and academician.

description: We find the angular Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) states (or the twisted kink crystals) in which a phase and an amplitude of a pair potential modulate simultaneously in a quasi-onedimensional superconducting ring with a static Zeeman magnetic field applied on the ring and static Aharonov-Bohm magnetic flux penetrating the ring. The superconducting ring with magnetic flux produces a persistent current, whereas the Zeeman split of Fermi energy results in the spatial modulation of the pair potential. We show that these two magnetic fields stabilize the FFLO phase in a large parameter region of the magnetic fields. We further draw the phase diagram with the two kinds of first-order phase transitions; one corresponds to phase slips separating the Aharonov-Bohm magnetic flux, and the other separates the number of peaks of the pair amplitude for the Zeeman magnetic field.

description: It is well established that the O(N) Wilson-Fisher (WF) CFT sits at a kink of the numerical bounds from bootstrapping four point function of O(N) vector. Moving away from the WF kinks, there indeed exists another family of kinks (dubbed non-WF kinks) on the curve of O(N) numerical bounds. Different from the $O(N)$ WF kinks that exist for arbitrary N in dimensions, the non-WF kinks exist in arbitrary dimensions but only for a large enough N in a given dimension $d$. In this paper, we have achieved a thorough understanding for few special cases of these non-WF kinks. The first case is the $O(4)$ bootstrap in 2d, where the non-WF kink turns out to be the $SU(2)_1$ Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) model, and all the $SU(2)_{k>2}$ WZW models saturate the numerical bound on the left side of the kink. We further carry out dimensional continuation of the 2d $SU(2)_1$ kink towards the 3d $SO(5)$ deconfined phase transition. We find the kink disappears at around $d=2.7$ dimensions indicating the $SO(5)$ deconfined phase transition is weakly first order. The second interesting observation is, the $O(2)$ bootstrap bound does not show any kink in 2d ($N_c=2$), but is surprisingly saturated by the 2d free boson CFT (also called Luttinger liquid) all the way on the numerical curve. The last case is the $N=\infty$ limit, where the non-WF kink sits at $(\Delta_\phi, \Delta_T)=(d-1, 2d)$ in $d$ dimensions. We manage to write down its analytical four point function in arbitrary dimensions, which equals to the subtraction of correlation functions of a free fermion theory and generalized free theory. An important feature of this solution is the existence of a full tower of conserved higher spin current. We speculate that a new family of CFTs will emerge at non-WF kinks for finite $N$, in a similar fashion as $O(N)$ WF CFTs originating from free boson at $N=\infty$.

description: The stress-free state (SFS) of red blood cells (RBCs) is a fundamental reference configuration for the calibration of computational models, yet it remains unknown. Current experimental methods cannot measure the SFS of cells without affecting their mechanical properties while computational postulates are the subject of controversial discussions. Here, we introduce data driven estimates of the SFS shape and the visco-elastic properties of RBCs. We employ data from single-cell experiments that include measurements of the equilibrium shape, of stretched cells, and relaxation times of initially stretched RBCs. A hierarchical Bayesian model accounts for these experimental and data heterogeneities. We quantify, for the first time, the SFS of RBCs and use it to introduce a transferable RBC (t-RBC) model. The effectiveness of the proposed model is shown on predictions of unseen experimental conditions during the inference, including the critical stress of transitions between tumbling and tank-treading cells in shear flow. Our findings demonstrate that the proposed t-RBC model provides predictions of blood flows with unprecedented accuracy and quantified uncertainties.
Perpetual motion and driven dynamics of a mobile impurity in a quantum fluid

description: We study the dynamics of a mobile impurity in a quantum fluid at zero temperature. Two related settings are considered. In the first setting the impurity is injected in the fluid with some initial velocity ${\mathbf v}_0$, and we are interested in its velocity at infinite time, ${\mathbf v}_\infty$. We derive a rigorous upper bound on $|{\mathbf v}_0-{\mathbf v}_\infty|$ for initial velocities smaller than the generalized critical velocity. In the limit of vanishing impurity-fluid coupling this bound amounts to ${\mathbf v}_\infty={\mathbf v}_0$ which can be regarded as a rigorous proof of the Landau criterion of superfluidity. In the case of a finite coupling the velocity of the impurity can drop, but not to zero; the bound quantifies the maximal possible drop. In the second setting a small constant force is exerted upon the impurity. We argue that two distinct dynamical regimes exist -- backscattering oscillations of the impurity velocity and saturation of the velocity without oscillations. For fluids with $v_{c {\rm L}}=v_s$ (where $v_{c {\rm L}}$ and $v_s$ are the Landau critical velocity and sound velocity, respectively) the latter regime is realized. For fluids with $v_{c {\rm L}} < v_s$ both regimes are possible. Which regime is realized in this case depends on the mass of the impurity, a nonequilibrium quantum phase transition occurring at some critical mass. Our results are equally valid in one, two and three dimensions.

title: Addressing accommodation gaps for students with disabilities entering higher education
Creators: name: Regan, Jamie M.
Publisher: name: Colorado School of Mines Repository
Year: 2023

description: Regulatory support for individuals with disabilities decreases when students enter college. While in primary and secondary school students can rely on the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) which ensures they receive appropriate accommodations. It also ensures staff meet students' needs as outlined in their Individualized Education Program (IEP). Upon entering higher education these policies no longer apply and institutions are often unable to provide the same level of support to which these students have grown accustomed. Research has shown that even when an institution has a disability support department, it doesn't have the power to enforce significant institutional change. What this means is that the students are being thrust into a new environment, usually alone, where they must learn to advocate for themselves and learn without the aid of policies upon which they had previously relied. In Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) disciplines the disparity between high school and college is even more apparent. Historically STEM education has had a small population of disabled students, this has led to the belief that people with disabilities cannot succeed in STEM. This also means that many programs do not have the resources or experience to handle accessibility issues. This poster will outline my research, including an extensive literature review, into the ways in which students are struggling with the transition from high school to college as well as examples of programs being implemented to make STEM more accessible.

Year: 2022

description: The aim of the PhD project was to make possible systematic studies of the bio-aerosols behavior in different atmospheric conditions, with the final goal to assess the link between pollution levels and bio-aerosol dispersion and impact. The research has been carried out at ChAMBRe (Chamber for Aerosol Modelling and Bio-aerosol Research), a 2.3 m3 stainless steel atmospheric simulation chamber. Experiments conducted inside confined artificial environments, such as the Atmospheric Simulations Chambers (ASCs), where atmospheric conditions and composition are controlled, can provide valuable information on bio-aerosols viability and their interaction with other atmospheric constituents. The first phase of the PhD project was dedicated to the characterization of the chamber, the related instrumentation and the design and development of the experimental set-up. An experimental protocol for chamber studies on bio-aerosols was developed and thoroughly tested with two bacteria model strains (B. subtilis and E. coli). An intense effort has been dedicated to fully characterize the performance of three different nebulization systems specifically designed for bioaerosol applications to assess their application in experiments at ASCs. A WIBS-NEO provides the size-segregated, real-time monitoring of the total bio-aerosol concentration inside the chamber. With a clean atmosphere maintained inside ChAMBRe, the ratio between injected and extracted viable bacteria turned out to be reproducible at 11?% and 13% level with E. coli and B. subtilis respectively. After assessing this way the reproducibility and sensitivity of the whole experimental procedure, the first tests to explore the possible correlation between bacteria viability and air quality were carried out. The two bacteria models, B. subtilis and E. coli, were subjected to high concentrations of nitrogen oxides and soot particles, two of the most common pollutants emitted by anthropogenic sources.

description: Lévy processes with completely monotone jumps appear frequently in various applications of probability. For example, all popular stock price models based on Lévy processes (such as the Variance Gamma, CGMY/KoBoL and Normal Inverse Gaussian) belong to this class. In this paper we continue the work started in [Int. J. Theor. Appl. Finance 13 (2010) 63-91, Quant. Finance 10 (2010) 629-644] and develop a simple yet very efficient method for approximating processes with completely monotone jumps by processes with hyperexponential jumps, the latter being the most convenient class for performing numerical computations. Our approach is based on connecting Lévy processes with completely monotone jumps with several areas of classical analysis, including Padé approximations, Gaussian quadrature and orthogonal polynomials.

description: This dissertation provides a critical edition, with an Italian translation and a commentary, of the seventeen fragments attributed or attributable to the Greek grammarian Pius, who probably lived in the Imperial Age. These fragments show that Pius commented both the Homeric poems and Sophocles? Ajax. In the Introduction, I critically review the hypotheses formulated by previous scholars about Pius? chronological and cultural background: a thorough review of the surviving material reveals that Pius? lifetime can be very likely set in the Imperial Age, between the end of the 1st and the 3rd cent. CE. As regard the geographical location, we unfortunately have no elements to identify the place(s) where Pius lived and worked. The research outlines Pius? role as one of the hypomnematic sources gathered in the archetype of the scholia exegetica to the Iliad and the scholia vetera to Sophocles. Within the Introduction I also demonstrate that a previous interpretation, who traced back to Pius? work all the discussions of Aristarchus? atheteses preserved in the Homeric scholia, has to be dismissed. Finally, I propose a new hypothesis about the context in which Pius? works could be read, on the grounds of some features of his interventions, which features suggest that Pius? hypomnemata were used not only by other grammarians, in an erudite context, but also in the schoolroom, as a teaching aid. So, we could (re)think of Pius as a ??????????? not only as a ?scholar? (in philological terms), but also as a ?teacher?, who delivered the second level of education. In the second part of the dissertation, I collect and study the surviving fragments, which I propose to classify as follows: one testimonium (T 1, which provides the title of a hypomnema of Pius related to the sixteenth book of the Odyssey); fourteen fragments which can be certainly ascribed to Pius (FF 1-14), eight related to the Iliad (FF 1-8), four to the Odyssey (FF 9-12) and two (FF 13-14) to Sophocles? Ajax. I include in this group a new fragment (F 13) which was not considered in the previous collection of Pius? material; one dubium (F 1*), which very likely belongs to Apion; two spuria, which I ascribe respectively to Apion (sch. ex. Od. 4, 356a1 = F 1**) and to the Roman grammarian Porphyrion (Serv. ad Aen. 5, 735 = F 2**).

description: We prove explicit error bounds for Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods to compute expectations of functions with unbounded stationary variance. We assume that there is a $p\in(1,2)$ so that the functions have finite $L_p$-norm. For uniformly ergodic Markov chains we obtain error bounds with the optimal order of convergence $n^{1/p-1}$ and if there exists a spectral gap we almost get the optimal order. Further, a burn-in period is taken into account and a recipe for choosing the burn-in is provided.

description: The main aim of the research paper is to highlight the ineffective control of the UN Security Council in maintaining peace and security in Afghanistan. This paper employs the doctrinal method of research with qualitative analysis. Firstly, the paper presents the historical background of Afghanistan. Secondly, the paper essentially elaborates on the consequences of UN Security Council failure and describes future occurrences and consequences of war violence. Thirdly, this paper highlights the Responsibility to Protect or R2P to evolve international principles finding its root in humanitarian intervention and collective security. Lastly, the paper aims to point toward the effective duty to deal with failures of the UN Security Council and to protect principles and their implementation. Further, it put forward a plan for consideration for international peace. The paper presents the idea that the UN Security Council must work to reinstate the protection of world peace and should take responsibility for restoring Afghanistan’s international peace and security.

description: The fractal globule state is a popular model for describing chromatin packing in eukaryotic nuclei. Here we provide a scaling theory and dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) computer simulation for the thermal motion of monomers in the fractal globule state. Simulations starting from different entanglement-free initial states show good convergence which provides evidence supporting the existence of unique metastable fractal globule state. We show monomer motion in this state to be sub-diffusive described by $\langle X^2 (t)\rangle \sim t^{α_F}$ with $α_F$ close to 0.4. This result is in good agreement with existing experimental data on the chromatin dynamics which makes an additional argument in support of the fractal globule model of chromatin packing.

description: We review the methods of constructing confidence intervals that account for a priori information about one-sided constraints on the parameter being estimated. We show that the so-called method of sensitivity limit yields a correct solution of the problem. Derived are the solutions for the cases of a continuous distribution with non-negative estimated parameter and a discrete distribution, specifically a Poisson process with background. For both cases, the best upper limit is constructed that accounts for the a priori information. A table is provided with the confidence intervals for the parameter of Poisson distribution that correctly accounts for the information on the known value of the background along with the software for calculating the confidence intervals for any confidence levels and magnitudes of the background (the software is freely available for download via Internet).

description: This thesis consists of two parts focusing on carers of care-experienced young people and their experiences of providing support for this population group both generally and regarding the specific presentation of self-harm. The systematic literature review was a meta-ethnography containing 12 qualitative papers related to carers experiences of providing support alongside professionals to meet the needs of the young person in their care. This review highlighted concerns for carers regarding communicating and understanding information professionals provided, experiences with professionals often left carers feeling inadequate, criticised, or not valued within their role. The review highlights specific perspectives of foster carers regarding developing their practical skills as carers. How carers of care-experienced/looked after young people valued support from their peers for both practical knowledge and emotional support was also identified. The reviews findings indicate further consideration is needed by professionals regarding how to better support carers in a manner meeting their needs while also empowering them within the support process. The empirical paper explored the experiences of residential staff supporting care-experienced young people who self-harm. Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis was used, 9 residential staff took part in semi-structured interviews. Four themes were developed to represent how participants made sense of their experiences “Understanding as a road to preventing”; “The care within the control”; “A bond beyond the role”; “The conflict in the system”, these themes related to staff members feelings around wanting to understand the self-harm as a way to reduce it, how self-harm impacted on the relationships they had with the young person, fellow staff members and the systems around them. The critical appraisal reflects on the researchers own journey through this research. Considering their own role within this research and how their previous experiences may have influenced their reflections and how this project may influence future clinical practice.

description: Urban green spaces provide a host of ecosystem services, the quantity and structure of which play an important role in human well-being. Rapid urbanization may modify urban green spaces, having various effects on plant diversity. Tropical coastal cities have urbanized rapidly in recent decades, but few studies have been conducted with a focus on their green spaces. We studied the responses of cultivated and spontaneous plants, both key components of urban flora, to the landscape structure of urban green spaces and possible social drivers. We analyzed existing relationships between plant diversity indices, urban green space landscape metrics (using Systeme Probatoire d’Observation de la Terre (SPOT) data,), and social factors, including the type, population density, construction age, and GPS coordinates of each Urban Functional Unit, or UFU. We found that UFUs with more green space patches had higher cultivated and spontaneous species richness than those with fewer green space patches. Spontaneous species richness decreased when green space patches became fragmented, and it increased when green space patches were more connected (e.g., via land bridges). Conversely, cultivated species richness increased with green space patch fragmentation. The phylogenetic diversity of both cultivated and spontaneous plants were weakly associated with green space structure, which was strongly driven by land use. Old UFUs and those with larger populations had more green space patches overall, although they tended to be small and fragmented. Green space patch density was found to increase as the UFU age increased. From the viewpoint of knowledge transfer, understanding the effects and drivers of landscape patterns of urban green spaces could inform the development of improved policies and management of urban green space areas.
