Subjects: subject: 630

description: This expanded review aims to provide information on previous basic research by charophyte experts in the areas of reproduction, dormancy, germination of oospores and cultivation. Therefore, published information, the author’s PhD thesis and further results have been combined to summarise the current state of knowledge for Characeae of permanent and temporary waterbodies. The understanding of evolutionary, systematic and molecular pathways require multidimensional approaches using combined results of morphology, anatomy, physiology, genetics, geobotanics and ecology. The application of zonobioms from geobotanies for performed germination studies resulted in a linkage between environmental conditions and dormancy breakage treatment. Besides this, the combination of environmental logger data and species-specific cultivation knowledge resulted in an optimised in-vitro system that allow the successful gametangia initiation and maturation under artificial laboratory conditions in monoecious diplostichous Chara species.

description: Genus Geosesarma De Man, 1892
Type species
Sesarma (Geosesarma) nodulifera De Man, 1892, subsequent designation by Serène and Soh (1970). Gender neuter.
Remarks
De Man (1892) established Geosesarma as a subgenus of Sesarma for small-sized species that carry a small number of large eggs (De Man 1892, p. 341). He mentioned the possession of large eggs for Se. (G.) nodulifera De Man, 1892 and two undescribed species, but not for Se. (G.) sylvicola De Man, 1892. One of the two unidentified species was later described as Sesarma nodulifera var. conferta Ortmann, 1894 (now also placed in Geosesarma) (Ng et al. 2015b).
Geosesarma currently contains 56 species (Ng et al. 2008a, 2015b; Naruse and Jaafar 2009; Schubart and Ng 2014; Ng 2015), and many of them are known to produce a small number of large eggs and to practise direct development (e.g. Soh 1969; Ng and Tan 1995). There are, however, some species that have a large number of small eggs [e.g. G. angustifrons (A. Milne-Edwards 1869), G. hednon Ng, Liu and Schubart, 2004 and G. maculatum (De Man, 1892) (Cai and Ng 2001; Schubart and Ng 2014)]. Serène and Soh (1970, p. 403) also indicated the heterogeneous nature of the genus and questioned the generic position of G. angustifrons (see Remarks on Sc. gracilipes). This issue is also noted in Paulay and Starmer (2011). Ng (1988) recognised three informal species groups within the Geosesarma of Peninsular Malaysia, but there are clearly other groups in the genus (e.g. Manuel-Santos et al. 2016). In addition, many Geosesarma species have never been studied or only poorly studied since their original descriptions, and access to their type material is not always easy, which makes it difficult to revise the genus. The two species here transferred from Labuanium s.l. to Geosesarma are examples of such poorly known species.

description: Reverse osmosis (RO) is the most common method for treating salt and brackish water. As a membrane-driven process, a key challenge for RO systems is their susceptibility to scaling and biofouling. To address these issues, functional coatings utilizing metal nanoparticles (MNPs) are developed. In this study, silver, gold, and copper nanoparticles are applied onto thin-film composite (TFC) membranes using plasma-enhanced magnetron sputtering. The elemental composition, surface morphology, and hydrophilicity of the coatings are analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and contact angle measurements. The antimicrobial properties and the filtration efficiency of the coated membranes are assessed through application-specific experimental setups. Silver and copper nanoparticles exhibit superior antimicrobial properties, reducing microorganism adhesion by a factor of 103 compared to uncoated membranes. Under appropriate coating conditions, no deterioration in filtration performance is observed. Enhancing the adhesion of MNPs is necessary for achieving sustained release of metal ions.
Fiduciari and Firm Liquidity Constraints: The Italian Experience with German-Style Universal Banking
Creators: name: Fohlin, Caroline
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1996

description: This study presents new evidence on the role of bank relationships in attenuating Italian firms' liquidity constraints and interprets the findings in comparison with those from a similar study of the German case. Employing investment models on a panel of 170 firms between 1903 and 1911, the analysis shows that bank relationships had little effect on the liquidity constraints of the general population of investing firms, but that they may have attenuated liquidity constraints for new firms. Analysis of the characteristics associated with bank-attached firms indicates that such firms were significantly different from independent firms, and that German-style banks may, therefore, have been important for ex ante monitoring and signaling to investors. The results for Italy accord well with the German experience, and thus universal banking appears, in general, to have had limited impact on the investment patterns of firms during industrialization.

Coping With Ignorance: Unforeseen Contingencies and Non-Additive Uncertainty
Creators: name: Ghirardato, Paolo
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1996
Subjects: Unforeseen contingencies, Underspecified decision problem, Belief functions, Choquet integrals, Pessimism index.

description: In real-life decision problems, decision makers are never provided with the necessary background structure: the set of states of the world, the outcome space, the set of actions. They have to devise all these by themselves. I model the (static) choice problem of a decision maker (DM) who is aware that her perception of the state space is too coarse, as for instance when there might be unforeseen contingencies. After making assumptions on the way the DM perceives the decision problem, I present a set of axioms on her preferences which imply that they can represented by a (generalized) expectation with respect to a non-additive measure, called a belief function. As it turns out, the very natural axioms presented have strong implications on the way the DM copes with the type of ignorance described above. I show how some decision rules that have been studied in the literature can be obtained as a special case of the model presented here (though they have to be interpreted differently).
I then show that this formulation of the problem can yield very natural results on the comparative statics of beliefs as the DM's understanding of the decision problem becomes deeper, for instance when unforeseen events become foreseen. I present the implications of these results for a simple asset pricing model. Finally I argue that if we are willing to make assumptions on the faithfulness of the DM's perception with respect to reality, then the DM described here will, in the limit as her perception becomes finer and finer, resemble a Savage DM.

description: Before implementing a new microbiological test method in pharmaceutical industry, it is required to assess whether it matches or surpasses the detection of microorganisms of the current microbiological method. The United Stated Pharmacopoeia Chapter 1223 (USP < 1223>) proposes two statistical approaches for testing non-inferiority of two qualitative microbiological methods when they can both test the same samples (paired design). The first approach compares the positive rates of the two methods. The non-inferiority test is not influenced by the performance of the methods alone, it is also affected by the spiked bacterial density. The second approach compares most probable numbers (MPNs) between the two methods, but the MPN assumes that the microbiological methods are perfect. To address the two above mentioned flaws, a generalized MPN (gMPN) approach is being proposed. Estimators for the accuracy, detection proportion, and bacterial density parameter are being derived using the method of moments. It will be shown that estimation of the accuracy and detection proportion has limited to no bias, but the bias for the bacterial density can become substantial. A test statistic for non-inferiority of accuracy, along with a sample size formula, is presented, showing nominal Type I error and appropriate power. The proposed approach is demonstrated using real data.

The effects of exchange rate trade (import & export) by utilizing variables such as real bilateral exchange rate, bilateral exchange rate volatility, and economic activities measured for Pakistan's major trading partners from 1985 to 2020.The researcher uses non-linear ARDL and linear ARDL techniques for estimation. They also apply co-integration tests, with the F-test being used for lagged value significance and the t-test for establishing significance. The linear ARDL of export and import in the short-run reveals that exchange rate volatility positively impacts Pakistan's exports. In the long run, all the partners positively impact imports.

Comparing Absentee and Precinct Voters: Voting on Direct Legislation

Subjects: absentee voting. NESML proposition voting

description: This paper addresses issues related to how the absentee voter actually casts their ballot on propositions. If the liberalization of absentee laws changed either the composition or behavior of the electorate then the outcome of the• election may be affected.
This paper tests whether the electoral behavior of absentee and precinct voters differs in regards to voting on propositions. The analysis is based on sample of actual absentee and precinct voter ballots drawn from the approximately three million ballots cast in Los Angeles county for the 1992 general election. The analysis uses a nested model of voter participation and is estimated using the weighted exogenous sampling maximum likelihood method.
We find that precinct and absentee voters do differ on both the propositions they cast votes on, and in their propensity to vote "Yes" for a proposition. For example, absentees appear to vote on fewer bonds and initiatives than do precinct voters. They also vote on fewer propositions dealing with state taxes, food taxes, and property taxes. In addition, given that a voter casts a valid vote, the propensity for absentee voters to vote "Yes" is higher on initiatives and propositions related to education, welfare, and health care than it is for precinct voters.

Year: 1995
Subjects: absentee voting, nested logit, panel data, political participation, aggregate, nested logit, random effects

description: This paper examines the trend in absentee voting over the last thirty years in California. With the liberalization of absentee voting laws and practices, an increase in the numbers of absentee voters quickly followed. Absentee voters have already demonstrated their ability to influence the outcomes of local elections. An open question is what will become of absentee voters in the future. If they are the model for "voting at home," and if technological advances allow such, then the behavior of current absentee voters may be indicative of the future electorate.
The increasing trend of voters opting for absentee ballots is analyzed by using GLS on a random effects time-series cross-section model with county level data. The focus is on identifying structural factors such as changing voter demographics that have influenced the decision of voters to cast absentee ballots. Thirty-three recent state-wide elections in California are the basis for this analysis, covering the statewide primary and general elections from November 1962, through November 1994.
We find that the impact of demographics and time trends on absentee voting differ between general and primary elections. In addition, we find that a 1977 liberalization law in California had the effect of accelerating the usage of the absentee format. Finally, we conclude that absentee and precinct voting are substitutes in general elections but complements in primary elections.

description: Recent models of decision making represent agents' beliefs by non-additive set-functions. An important technical question which arises in applications to diverse areas of economics is how to define independence of such set-functions. After arguing that the straightforward generalization of independence does not in general yield a unique product, in this work I show that, while Fubini's theorem is in general false if additivity is not granted, it is true when a certain type of function is being integrated. For these functions the iterated integrals coincide with the integral with respect to products which satisfy a certain property, strictly stronger than independence. I show that most of the assumptions made in these results are very close to being necessary. In general the mentioned property is still not strong enough to uniquely define a product. On the other hand I discuss some proposals which have been made in the literature, and I show that unicity can however be obtained when the product is assumed to be a belief function. Moreover I show that the unique product thus obtained has an intuitive justification when the marginals are distributions induced by random correspondences. Finally I use the results in the paper to discuss the question of randomization in decision models with non-additive beliefs.

description: Motivation: Freshwater ecosystems have been heavily impacted by land-use changes, but data syntheses on these impacts are still limited. Here, we compiled a global database encompassing 241 studies with species abundance data (from multiple biological groups and geographic locations) across sites with different land-use categories. This compilation will be useful for addressing questions regarding land-use change and its impact on freshwater biodiversity. Main Types of Variables Contained: The database includes metadata of each study, sites location, sample methods, sample time, land-use category and abundance of each taxon. Spatial Location and Grain: The database contains data from across the globe, with 85% of the sites having well-defined geographical coordinates. Major Taxa and Level of Measurement: The database covers all major freshwater biological groups including algae, macrophytes, zooplankton, macroinvertebrates, fish and amphibians.
Why Did The Incumbency Advantage In U.S. House Elections Grow?

description: In the last twenty years, scholars have scrutinized the electoral advantages conferred by incumbency-both at the federal and at the state level-more than perhaps any other factor affecting U .S. legislative elections.1 Much of the literature focuses on explaining why the incumbency advantage in U .S. House elections grew so substantially, starting in the mid-1960s. The dominant contenders in the literature are two, one emphasizing resources of various kinds (Mayhew 1974) and opportunities to perform constituency services (Fiorina 1977; 1989), one emphasizing partisan dealignment (Erikson 1972; Burnham 1974; Ferejohn 1977). While not incompatible, these explanations do point to significantly different factors as key, and neither has emerged as a clear winner.
In this paper, we suggest a new approach to measuring the incumbency advantage, one that disaggregates the total value of incumbency into three components. By examining the trends over time in these three components we find evidence suggesting that much of the growth in the incumbency advantage at the federal level cannot be accounted for by resource growth; rather, some version of the dealignment story will have to be employed.

description: We present the extension of our all-atom force field BILFF (Bio-polymers in Ionic Liquids Force Field) to the co-solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). BILFF already includes force field parameters for several imidazolium- and triazolium-based ionic liquids, water, and the bio-molecule cellulose. DMSO is known to increase the cellulose solubility of [EMIm][OAc] when applied as an additive. Our focus is on a correct reproduction of the hydrogen bonds in the ternary system of [EMIm], [OAc], water and DMSO compared to ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. For this purpose, the results from force field MD simulations such as radial and distance–angle distribution functions are compared with the reference AIMD simulation. Based on this, the force field parameters (starting from OPLS–AA) are iteratively adjusted. Four systems, pure and aqueous DMSO as well as DMSO in pure and aqueous [EMIm][OAc], are considered and additionally compared to DMSO-free [EMIm][OAc] systems. A very good agreement with respect to the microstructure of the quantum chemical reference simulations as well as to experimental data such as density, diffusion coefficients, enthalpy of vaporization, compressibility and thermal expansion coefficients can be observed over a wide temperature range. BILFF thus enables accurate simulations of larger systems of solvated cellulose in (aqueous) [EMIm][OAc] and the co-solvent DMSO.
The Influence of Socioeconomic Status and Gender on Perceptions of Individuals with Hoarding Behavior

description:  
   The following study explores how socioeconomic status (SES), gender, and perceptions of hoarding behavior intersect. While there is a wealth of research highlighting the relationship between bias or stigma related to SES, gender, and hoarding as individual variables, there is a clear gap in the literature regarding the connection between these variables. This study aimed to bridge that gap using case vignettes of individuals with hoarding behavior from diverse SES backgrounds and genders.
Participants, recruited through Amazon’s MTurk and several social media sites, assessed the pathology (diagnosis and severity) and prognosis (need for treatment) of individuals in the vignettes after reading a brief overview of Hoarding Disorder (HD) based on DSM-5-TR (2022) criteria. A series of two-way ANOVAs analyzed how the SES and gender of vignette characters, as well as the participants' own SES and gender, influenced their ratings.
   Results showed some evidence of discrepancies in participants' ratings of hoarding pathology based on the SES depicted in vignettes, consistent with research on stigma in relation to SES as well as mental illness. While the evidence was not overwhelming, the data did suggest that lower SES was associated with increased symptoms and severity in third-party assessments of hoarding behavior. Future research should address study limitations and expand upon these findings.
   Clinical implications of this study included developing a better understanding of the effects of bias and stigma on those with hoarding behavior. In addition, the study aimed to highlight the possible barriers to treatment and effective solutions for clinicians and other practitioners to implement in their work with those who live with this debilitating disorder.

description: We consider the assignment of heterogeneous and indivisible objects to agents without using monetary transfers, where each agent may be assigned more than one object, and the valuation of the objects to an agent may depend on what other objects the agent is assigned. The set of strategyproof, nonbossy, and Pareto-optimal social choice functions is characterized as dictatorial sequential choice functions. Thus, the consequences of a Gibbard-Satterthwaite-type result can only be escaped in this context by using bossy social choice functions. It is also established that all strategyproof, strongly nonbossy and Pareto-optimal social choice functions are serial dictatorships, where strong nonbossiness is a stricter version of bossiness.

Loss Avoidance and Forward Induction in Experimental Coordination Games

description: We report experiments on how players select among multiple Pareto-ranked equilibria in a coordination game. Subjects initially choose inefficient equilibria. Charging a fee to play (which makes initial equilibria money-losing) creates coordination on better equilibria. When fees are optional, improved coordination is consistent with forward induction. But coordination improves even when subjects must pay the fee (forward induction does not apply). Subjects appear to use a "loss-avoidance" selection principle: they expect others to avoid strategies that always result in losses. Loss-avoidance implies that "mental accounting" of out- comes can affect choices in games.

Strategyproof Allocation of a Single Object
Creators: name: Papai, Szilvia
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1996

description: The problem of allocating a single indivisible object to one of several selfish agents is considered, where monetary payments are not allowed, and the object is not necessarily desirable to each agent. It is shown that ordinality and positive responsiveness together are necessary and sufficient conditions for strategyproofness, which implies that efficient social choice functions are not strategyproof. However, any Pareto-optimal, ordinal social choice function is strategyproof. A Gibbard-Satterthwaite-type impossibility result is established for nonbossy mechanisms. Thus, the best the planner can do without monetary transfers is to give the object to an agent who desires it, but whose valuation of the object may not be the highest among the agents, using a mechanism that is either dictatorial or bossy. It is also shown that all strategyproof, nonbossy, and Pareto-optimal social choice functions are serial dictatorships.
