description: The main objective of this article is to discuss the diversity of European Union countries based on selected indicators of agriculture's impact on the environment. Figures come from 2013. The analysis was conducted using the cluster analysis. The following diagnostic features were used for the analysis: gross nitrogen balance, share of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture in the selected country in total greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture in all of EU countries, pesticide sales per hectare UAA, the share of ammonia emissions in the selected country in total ammonia emissions of all EU countries, share of irrigable areas in total UAA and share of organic area in total UAA. As a result of the cluster analysis examined regions were divided into six groups. Synopsis. Celem badań jest omówienie zróżnicowania państw Unii Europejskiej na podstawie wybranych wskaźników oddziaływania rolnictwa na środowisko. Dane liczbowe pochodzą z 2013 roku. Badanie przeprowadzono za pomocą analizy skupień. Do analizy przyjęto następujące cechy diagnostyczne: bilans azotu brutto, udział emisji gazów cieplarnianych pochodzących z rolnictwa danego państwa w całkowitej emisji gazów cieplarnianych pochodzących z rolnictwa państw UE, sprzedaż pestycydów na hektar użytków rolnych (UR), udział emisji amoniaku badanego państwa w ogólnej emisji amoniaku w UE, udział gruntów przystosowanych do nawadniania w ogólnej powierzchni UR oraz udział gruntów ekologicznych w powierzchni UR. W wyniku zastosowania analizy skupień podzielono badane państwa na sześć grup.

description: Using classical as well as ab-initio molecular dynamics simulations, we calculate the frequency-dependent shear viscosity of pure water and water-glycerol mixtures. In agreement with recent experiments, we find deviations from Newtonian-fluid behavior in the THz regime. Based on an extension of the Maxwell model, we introduce a viscoelastic model to describe the observed viscosity spectrum of pure water. We find four relaxation modes in the spectrum which we attribute to i) hydrogen-bond network topology changes, ii) hydrogen-bond stretch vibrations of water pairs, iii) collective vibrations of water molecule triplets, and iv) librational excitations of individual water molecules. Our model quantitatively describes the viscoelastic response of liquid water on short timescales, where the hydrodynamic description via a Newtonian-fluid model breaks down.

description: The aim of the paper is to demonstrate the technocratic legitimacy (so called input legitimacy) in the case of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Compared to other regulatory agencies this institution enjoys high credibility and is considered as a model example of an advisory body to the European Commission providing high-quality scientific opinions. However the question, whether such technocratic validation of EFSA’s activities is sufficient, remains open. It has indeed no regulatory or decision-making powers, but through the legislative activity of the European Commission, which often fully reflects the EFSA’s position, the agency itself participates in the shaping of the European food law. Synopsis. Celem artykułu jest wykazanie uwarunkowań legitymizacji technokratycznej (wynikowej) w przypadku Europejskiego Urzędu ds. Bezpieczeństwa Żywności. Na tle innych agencji regulacyjnych instytucja ta cieszy się dużym zaufaniem i uważana jest za modelowy przykład doradczego gremium Komisji Europejskiej, dostarczającego wysokiej jakości opinii naukowych. Otwartym pozostaje jednak pytanie, czy takie technokratyczne uprawomocnienie działań urzędu jest wystarczające. Nie ma on wprawdzie ani uprawnień regulacyjnych, ani decyzyjnych, ale za pośrednictwem projektów legislacyjnych Komisji Europejskiej, które niejednokrotnie w pełni odzwierciedlają stanowisko urzędu, uczestniczy w kształtowaniu europejskiego prawa żywnościowego.

description: Meat is one of the basic foodstuffs, which in modern times arouses a lot of controversy. On the one hand, appreciates its nutritional values, especially the content high in protein, minerals and vitamins. On the other hand, it is considered that the excessive intake can contribute to the formation of civilization diseases. The aim of the article was to analyze the purchasing behavior of Polish consumers of fresh meat in general and pork, poultry and beef. Particular attention was paid to the choice of the place of purchase, the evaluation of the frequency of purchase, as well as the factors determining the choice of different types of meat by consumers. Also evaluated the impact of the manufacturer's decision-making by consumers purchase meat. It was found that regardless of the type of meat, increases the importance of specialist butcher shops. The analysis of association proved that consumers are making decisions about the purchase of meat draw attention primarily on its price, overall appearance and color. Synopsis. Mięso jest jednym z podstawowych produktów żywnościowych, który we współczesnych czasach wzbudza wiele kontrowersji. Z jednej strony docenia się jego walory odżywcze, a szczególnie zawartość pełnowartościowego białka, związków mineralnych i witamin. Z drugiej strony uważa się, że jego nadmierne spożycie może przyczynić się do powstawania chorób cywilizacyjnych. Celem artykułu była analiza zachowań nabywczych polskich konsumentów mięsa świeżego ogółem, mięsa wieprzowego, drobiowego i wołowego w Polsce na tle wybranych przykładów pochodzących z innych krajów. Szczególną uwagę zwrócono na wybór miejsca zakupu, ocenę częstotliwości nabywania, a także na czynniki determinujące wybór poszczególnych rodzajów mięs przez konsumentów. Oceniono również wpływ producenta na podejmowanie decyzji przez konsumentów o zakupie mięsa. Stwierdzono, że w Polsce, niezależnie od rodzaju mięsa, wzrasta popularność specjalistycznych sklepów mięsnych, czego nie odnotowuje się w innych krajach. Przeprowadzona analiza asocjacji dowiodła, że polscy konsumenci podejmując decyzje o nabyciu mięsa zwracają przede wszystkim uwagę na jego cenę, wygląd ogólny oraz barwę.

description: Classical conditioning is one mechanism responsible for the maintenance of smoking behavior. In addition to environmental, sensorimotor, or emotional cues, certain cognitions (e.g. when a person believes they can smoke next) may also influence reactivity to smoking related cues and overall smoking motivation. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the linearity,or curvilinearity, of the relationship between smoking availability and self-reported urge, self-reported mood, and reaction time. After collecting baseline measurements, 85 (59 male, 26 female) non-treatment seeking, regular, heavy (M=15 cigarettes/day) smokers were randomly assigned one of three conditions: smoke in 20 minutes, smoke in 3 hours, and smoke in 24 hours. Planned comparisons revealed that the 24 hour condition had the greatest decrease in positive mood compared to the other conditions. The linearity of this relationship is discussed. The analyses also indicated that the 24 hour group had significantly greater reaction time than the 3 hour condition, with a trending curvilinear relationship. Treatment implications of smoking availability as an important cognitive factor in drug-use behavior are discussed.

description: The general relativistic accretion onto a black hole is investigated in which the motion is steady and spherically symmetrical, the gas being at rest at infinity. Two models with different equations of state are compared. Numerical calculations show that the predictions of the models are similar in most aspects. In the ultrarelativistic regime the allowed band of the asymptotic speed of sound and the mass accretion rate can be markedly different.

Modulations in the radio light curve of the Type IIb Supernova 2001ig: Evidence for a Wolf-Rayet binary progenitor?

description: We describe the radio evolution of SN 2001ig in NGC 7424, from 700 days of multi-frequency monitoring with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) and the Very Large Array (VLA). We find that deviations of the radio light curves at each frequency from the standard "minishell" model are consistent with density modulations in the circumstellar medium (CSM), which seem to recur with a period near 150 days. One possibility is that these are due to enhanced mass-loss from thermal pulses in an AGB star progenitor. A more likely scenario however is that the progenitor was a Wolf-Rayet star, whose stellar wind collided with that from a massive hot companion on an eccentric 100 day orbit, leading to a regular build-up of CSM material on the required time and spatial scales. Recent observations of "dusty pinwheels" in Wolf-Rayet binary systems lend credibility to this model. Since such binary systems are also thought to provide the necessary conditions for envelope-stripping which would cause the Wolf-Rayet star to appear as a Type Ib/c supernova event rather than a Type II, these radio observations of SN 2001ig may provide the key to linking Type Ib/c SNe to Type IIb events, and even to some types of Gamma-Ray Bursts.

Overcoming detection loss and noise in squeezing-based optical sensing

description: Among the known resources of quantum metrology, one of the most practical and efficient is squeezing. Squeezed states of atoms and light improve the sensing of the phase, magnetic field, polarization, mechanical displacement. They promise to considerably increase signal-to-noise ratio in imaging and spectroscopy, and are already used in real-life gravitational-wave detectors. But despite being more robust than other states, they are still very fragile, which narrows the scope of their application. In particular, squeezed states are useless in measurements where the detection is inefficient or the noise is high. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a remedy against loss and noise: strong noiseless amplification before detection. This way, we achieve loss-tolerant operation of an interferometer fed with squeezed and coherent light. With only 50\% detection efficiency and with noise exceeding the level of squeezed light more than 50 times, we overcome the shot-noise limit by 6~dB. Sub-shot-noise phase sensitivity survives up to 87\% loss. Application of this technique to other types of optical sensing and imaging promises a full use of quantum resources in these fields.
The origin of multiplets of chiral fields in SU(2)_k WZNW at rational level

description: We study solutions of the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation for discrete representations of SU(2)_k at rational level k+2=p/q using a regular basis in which the braid matrices are well defined for all spins. We show that at spin J=(j+1)p-1 for half integer j there are always a subset of 2j+1 solutions closed under the action of the braid matrices. For integer j these fields have integer conformal dimension and all the 2j+1 solutions are monodromy free. The action of the braid matrices on these can be consistently accounted for by the existence of a multiplet of chiral fields with extra SU(2) quantum numbers (m=-j,...,j). In the quantum group SU_q(2), with q=e^{\f{-i π}{k+2}}, there is an analogous structure and the related representations are trivial with respect to the standard generators but transform in a spin j representation of SU(2) under the extended center.

description: The objective of this study was to analyse ritual slaughters of animals for slaughter (cattle and poultry) in Poland in recent years, and to indicate the factors affecting their volume (scale). Using this form of slaughter raises many emotions and controversy, mainly for social (ethical and cultural) reasons. The EU legislation allows to carry out ritual slaughter for religious purposes, but the final decision in this matter belongs to the Member States. Ritual slaughter, although with some restrictions, is permitted in 23 European Union Member States. In Poland, it is carried out on an industrial scale, and meat obtained in this way is mainly for export, since the domestic demand is relatively small due to the small percentage of national minorities, i.e. Muslims and Jews. The possibility of carrying out such slaughter allows to increase production of livestock and poultry in Poland and the revenues and profits of the meat industry. It is also important that, in this way, the greater diversification of outlet markets takes place and with the high instability of world markets it reduces the risk of meat production. Synopsis. Celem niniejszego opracowania była analiza ubojów rytualnych zwierząt rzeźnych (bydła i drobiu) w Polsce w ostatnich latach oraz wskazanie czynników mających wpływ na ich wielkość (skalę). Stosownie tej forma uboju budzi wiele emocji i kontrowersji, głównie ze względów społecznych (etycznych i kulturowych). Unijne przepisy dopuszczają ubój rytualny dla celów religijnych, ale ostateczna decyzja w tej sprawie należy do krajów członkowskich. Na ubój rytualny, choć z pewnymi ograniczeniami, pozwalają 23 państwa Unii Europejskiej. W Polsce prowadzony jest on na skalę przemysłową, a pozyskiwane w ten sposób mięso, trafia przede wszystkim na eksport, gdyż popyt wewnętrzny jest relatywnie mały ze względu na niewielki odsetek mniejszości narodowych, tj. muzułmanów i żydów. Możliwość przeprowadzania takich ubojów pozwala zwiększać produkcję żywca wołowego i drobiowego w Polsce oraz przychody i zyski przemysłu mięsnego. Istotne jest także to, że w ten sposób następuje większa dywersyfikacja rynków zbytu, co przy dużej niestabilności rynków światowych, ogranicza ryzyko produkcji mięsa.

description: Final water inventories of newly formed terrestrial planets are shaped by their collision history. A setting where volatiles are transported from beyond the snowline to habitable-zone planets suggests collisions of very dry with water-rich bodies. By means of smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations we study water delivery in scenarios where a dry target is hit by a water-rich projectile, focusing on hit-and-run encounters with two large surviving bodies, which probably comprise about half of all similar-sized collisions.

title: An eco-profile of building materials
Creators: name: Cooper, David L.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1997

description: This research examines the environmental parameters associated with the production and delivery of building materials in the U.K. in 1991. Using primary data supplied from commercial sources, an eco-profile is produced for each material by calculating the gross inputs of energy and raw materials and gross outputs of solid waste, air and water emissions. The production sequences are traced from raw materials in the ground through to the final product and extend to include transport operations and the production and delivery of fuels and ancillary materials. The results are used to complete eco-profiles for the construction of a three bedroom bungalow house and a four bedroom two storey detached house. It is shown that per square metre of floor space, the construction of the two storey detached house produces considerable reductions in the burdens on the enviromnent. Eco-profiles are used to compare the environmental burdens associated with alternative building materials. The effect of alternative building materials on the eco-profiles of house construction is discussed. It is shown that significant reductions in the gross inputs and outputs maybe made by substituting dense concrete blocks for clay bricks.

description: Abstract: Water balance and vegetation of the Moosfenn have been observed since the beginning of the 20th century. The Moosfenn, covering 3,67 ha, is one of the largest swimming kettle hole mires in the northeast of Germany. We describe genesis and water balance. Reconstruction of the genesis is based on existing pollen analyses and stratigraphic investigations. Remarkable is a long reed phase since the younger atlantikum. A drought with tree expansion followed at the beginning of the older subatlantikum. At the beginning of the later middle age a flooding to a level of 1,5 m above surface was detected. Afterwards a new sphagnum cover evolved on the lake. The reconstruction of the water level started about 1917. After deforestation in the surrounding at 1918 an enormous rise of the water level was observed. The mire expanded. Later the water level retreated to a normal phase. Since the late 80`s the water level has been reduced dramaticly and so some typic features changed. The dynamic of several peat layers as well as 3 hydrostatic phases are described.
description: Zusammenfassung: Seit Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts wurden Wasserhaushalt und Vegetation des Moosfenns beobachtet. Mit 3,67 ha gehört das Moosfenn zu den größten in Nordostdeutschland bekannten schwimmenden Kesselmooren. Es wird die Entstehung und der Wasserhaushalt des Moores dargestellt. Die Moorentstehung wurde mit Hilfe einer vorhandenen Pollenanalyse und stratigraphischen Untersuchungen rekonstruiert. Bemerkenswert ist eine sehr ausgeprägte Schilfphase ab dem Jüngeren Atlantikum. Zu Beginn des älteren Subatlantikums trat eine intensive Austrocknung und Bewaldung auf. Etwa zu Beginn des Spätmittelalters konnte eine Überstauung von mindestens 1,5 m nachgewiesen werden. Danach entwickelte sich eine neue Schwingdecke auf dem Gewässer. Für die Zeit ab etwa 1917 wird der Wasserstand im Moor rekonstruiert. Ab 1918, nach einem Kahlschlag im Einzugsgebiet des Moores, trat ein erheblicher Wasserspiegelanstieg auf. Das Moor transgredierte über den Moorrand hinweg. Anschließend gingen die Wasserverhältnisse wieder in einen "Normalzustand" über. Seit Ende der 80er Jahre werden veränderte Mooreigenschaften aufgrund stark fallender Moorwasserstände beobachtet. Mit Hilfe von Messungen verschiedener Moorschichten kann die Reaktion des Moores auf wasserhaushaltliche Veränderungen beschrieben werden. Es werden 3 hydrostatische Phasen vorgestellt.

description: The Newman-Janis (NJ) method is a prescription to derive the Kerr space-time from the Schwarzschild metric. The BTZ, Kerr and five-dimensional Myers-Perry (MP) black hole solutions have already been generated by different versions of the NJ method. However, it is not known how to generate the metric of higher-dimensional (d > 6) rotating black holes by this method. In this paper, we propose the simplest algorithm for generation of the five-dimensional MP metric with two arbitrary angular momenta by using the Kerr-Schild form of the metric and quaternions. Then, we present another new two-step version of the NJ approach without using quaternions that generate the five-dimensional MP metric with equal angular momenta. Finally, the extension of the later procedure is explained for the higher odd-dimensional rotating black holes (d > 5) with equal angular momenta.

description: This paper is an attempt at filling the cognitive gap in the effect that human capital has on farms competitiveness. Education is the most measurable characteristic of human capital so the purpose of this paper is evaluating the effect of the manager’s level of education on the competiveness of the commercial farms. The surveys were carried out based on accounting data provided by commodity farms participating in the Polish FADN in 2010-2012. The outcomes indicate a competitive advantage of farms run by managers who completed higher education over entities run by farmers without higher education. Surveys also demonstrated a competitive advantage to the extent of land productivity, equipment of land with technical facilities and labour on farms run by managers with higher education in comparison to farms whose managers had no such education.

"The noblest act of vertue" : horsemanship and honour in seventeenth-century England
Creators: name: Mattfeld, Monica
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The competent use of horses was essential to the seventeenth century English gentleman; however, scholarly analysis of human-horse interactions for this time period has been relatively slim. While historians of honour and masculinity have examined various aspects of gentlemanly honour, such as politics, religion, and gender division, horses and horsemanship have remained unexplored. This study, through the reading of seventeenth-century horsemanship manuals, will place horses and the art of horsemanship into the historians' perception of how gentlemen created, maintained, or lost honour for themselves, for their families, and for the English commonwealth. Horses and horsemanship, other than being pleasant pastimes or symbols of man's domination over nature, were central to gentlemanly honour. The breeding and importing of "great horses" was undertaken according to specific aesthetic and practical criteria which, if the requirements were followed, improved individual and commonwealth honour. While mounted on a "great horse" a gentleman, along with displaying perfected riding skills, needed to showcase emotional and bodily action bridling to avoid charges of ignorance, ineptness, bestiality, or effeminacy. Horses were a central means of creating gentlemanly honour both for individual advancement and for England's honourable reputation as a strong and defended kingdom.

description: Occurring food losses and waste (FLW) are a result of ineffective functioning of food systems. Depending on the volume or region in which they occur they generate economic, social, environmental and health impacts. This paper analyzes the available polish and foreign scientific literature on the issue of food security and food losses and waste. Food losses and waste generate a lot of negative effects, which may directly or indirectly affect the four pillars of food security: food availability, access to food, food utilization and stability. Many activities are undertaken in order to prevent or minimize generated food losses and waste. On the other hand already created losses or waste can be used for example by redistributing or reusing food or its components, which may contribute to ensure food security. Synopsis. Powstające straty i marnotrawstwo żywności (SMŻ) są wynikiem nieefektywnego funkcjonowania systemów żywnościowych. W zależności od wolumenu czy regionu, w którym występują generują one skutki ekonomiczne, społeczne, środowiskowe oraz zdrowotne. W pracy przeprowadzono analizę dostępnej polskiej i zagranicznej literatury naukowej dotyczącej problematyki bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego oraz strat i marnotrawstwa żywności. Straty i marnotrawstwo żywności generują wiele negatywnych skutków, które mogą bezpośrednio bądź pośrednio wpływać na 4 filary bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego: dostępność żywności, dostęp do żywności, wykorzystanie żywności oraz stabilność dostępności i dostępu do żywności w czasie. Wiele działań jest podejmowanych w celu prewencji bądź zminimalizowania generowanych strat i marnotrawstwa. Z drugiej strony już powstałe straty czy zmarnowana żywność może być wykorzystana m.in. do redystrybucji bądź powtórnego wykorzystania żywności bądź jej składników, co może przyczyniać się do zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa żywnościowego.

The analyses also indicated that the 24 hour group had significantly greater reaction time than the 3 hour condition, with a trending curvilinear relationship. Treatment implications of smoking availability as an important cognitive factor in drug-use behavior are discussed.

description: In the present paper we discuss the general facts, concerning the Schlesinger system: the (τ)-function, the local factorization of solutions of Fuchsian equations and holomorphic deformations. We introduce the terminology "isoprincipal" for the deformations of Fuchsian equations with general (not necessarily non-resonant) matrix coefficients, corresponding to solutions of the Schlesinger system.

description: Recent measurements of distant type Ia supernovae (SNIa) as well as other observations indicate that our universe is in accelerating phase of expansion. In principle there are two alternative explanation for such an acceleration. While in the first approach an unknown form of energy violating the strong energy condition is postulated, in second one some modification of FRW dynamics is postulated. The both approaches are in well agreement with present day observations which is the manifestation of the degeneracy problem appearing in observational cosmology. We use the Akaike (AIC) and Bayesian (BIC) information criteria of model selection to overcome this degeneracy and to determine a model with such a set of parameters which gives the most preferred fit to the SNIa data. We consider five representative evolutional scenarios in each of groups. Among dark energy proposal the $Λ$CDM model, CDM model with phantom field, CDM model with topological defect, model with Chaplygin gas, and the model with the linear dynamical equation of state parameter. As an alternative prototype scenarios we consider: brane world Dvali Gabadadze Porrati scenario, brane models in Randall-Sundrum scenario, Cardassian models with dust matter and radiation, bouncing model with the cosmological constant and metric-affine gravity (MAG) inspired cosmological models. Applying the model selection criteria we show that both AIC and BIC indicates that additional contribution arises from nonstandard FRW dynamics are not necessary to explain SNIa. Adopting the model selection information criteria we show that the AIC indicates the flat phantom model while BIC indicates both flat phantom and flat $Λ$CDM models.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. 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.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

subject: Creative and professional writing

description: Darlington is a collection of short stories showing the effects of lynching in the past, present and future. These stories and poetry are infused with elements of magical realism, fantasy and science-fiction. I chose to write this narrative through these literary genres because they allow me the freedom to move creatively. Speculative fiction (magical realism, science-fiction and fantasy), permits people to be aware of things that "realistic" literature isn't always able to do. The narratives revolve around a small imaginary town in American and shows how lynching impacts a community over a period of time. By mixing various literary genres and styles, I sought to explore a horrific period in America by showing how various generations within a community have dealt with this dilemma. Often stories that have explored lynching, have examined how it has affected and divided the black community. Darlington attempts to show different prospective on the subject and how the victim and victimizer are forever linked by this tragedy. The chapters in Darlington are called suites to illustrate a linkage that exist with each story. The stories in Darlington are not self contain, but are influenced by previous and ongoing events in the town.
Entwicklung und Anwendung eines GIS-gestützten Moorkatasters im Einzugsgebiet der Stör in Schleswig-Holstein
Development and application of a GIS based peatland database for the river Stör basin in Schleswig-Holstein

description: Abstract: Peatland action plans require a complete peatland inventory and an assessment of their actual ecological status and functions in order to define regional specific restoration aims, management strategies and environmental indicators. Therefore, this study presents the methodology for the development of a GIS based peatland database in the river Stör catchment (1769 km2) in Northern Germany. The database combines information about the distribution of minerotrophic and ombrotrophic peat soils, the river network, subbasin hierarchy, geological and soil substrate distribution in the surrounding upland, land use, distribution of ecological valuable habitats, distribution of species rich wet grasslands, species distribution maps, administrative data, and legally protected areas. According to the database 18 % of the peat soils are used as fields. Ecological valuable habitats were mapped on 13 % of the peatland area. Only 3 % of the peatland area is legally protected as nature reserve. Such database queries support the selection of most sensible sites for nature conservation and water management.
description: Zusammenfassung: Moorschutzprogramme benötigen für eine quantitativ-funktionale Bewertung eine aktuelle, flächendeckende Inventur der Moorfläche, um regional differenzierte Restitutionsziele, Managementstrategien und Umweltindikatoren festzulegen. Für den Aufbau eines GIS-gestützten Moorkatasters wurde die Methodik beispielhaft im Einzugsgebiet der Stör (1769 km2) entwickelt. In einer Datenbank wurden die digital verfügbaren Fach- und Geodaten der Umweltverwaltung Schleswig-Holsteins aus den Bereichen Topographie, Verwaltung, Wasserwirtschaft, Bodenkunde und Naturschutz zusammengeführt. Nach diesen Daten werden im Stör-Einzugsgebiet 18 % der Moorböden nicht standortgerecht ackerbaulich bewirtschaftet, wurden auf lediglich 13 % der Moorböden ökologisch wertvolle Biotope kartiert und sind nur knapp 3 % der Moorböden als Naturschutzgebiet gesetzlich geschützt. Durch solche Datenbankabfragen werden für Naturschutz und Wasserwirtschaft sensible Flächen ausgewiesen und die Flächenauswahl unterstützt.

description: As a confined thin sheet crumples, it spontaneously segments into flat facets delimited by a network of ridges. Despite the apparent disorder of this process, statistical properties of crumpled sheets exhibit striking reproducibility. Experiments have shown that the total crease length accrues logarithmically when repeatedly compacting and unfolding a sheet of paper. Here, we offer insight to this unexpected result by exploring the correspondence between crumpling and fragmentation processes. We identify a physical model for the evolution of facet area and ridge length distributions of crumpled sheets, and propose a mechanism for re-fragmentation driven by geometric frustration. This mechanism establishes a feedback loop in which the facet size distribution informs the subsequent rate of fragmentation under repeated confinement, thereby producing a new size distribution. We then demonstrate the capacity of this model to reproduce the characteristic logarithmic scaling of total crease length, thereby supplying a missing physical basis for the observed phenomenon.

description: We present a computation of NNLO QCD corrections to the production of a Higgs boson in association with a $W$ boson at the LHC followed by the decay of the Higgs boson to a $b\bar{b}$ pair. At variance with previous NNLO QCD studies of the same process, we treat $b$ quarks as massive. An important advantage of working with massive $b$ quarks is that it makes the use of flavor jet algorithms unnecessary and allows us to employ conventional jet algorithms to define $b$ jets. We compare NNLO QCD descriptions of the associated $WH(b\bar{b})$ production with massive and massless $b$ quarks and also contrast them with the results provided by parton showers. We find ${\cal O}(5\%)$ differences in fiducial cross sections computed with massless and massive $b$ quarks. We also observe that much larger differences between massless and massive results, as well as between fixed-order and parton-shower results, can arise in selected kinematic distributions.

description: An exact solution of the Einstein field equations is found under the assumption of spherically symmetry and the existence of one-parameter group of homothetic motions. This solution has a singularity at $r = 0$, and has non-vanishing expansion, acceleration and shear. Tidal forces in radial direction will not stretch an observer falling in this fluid. If the material is represented by perfect fluid, we can verify that the solution coincides with stiff matter case. In this case, the solution has zero expansion. Tidal forces in radial direction will not stretch an observer falling in this fluid and they not squeeze him in transverse directions.
