description: The adrenal glands play a major role in metabolic processes, and both excess and insufficient serum cortisol concentrations can lead to serious metabolic consequences. Hyper- and hypoadrenocorticism represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Serum samples from dogs with untreated hyperadrenocorticism (n = 27), hyperadrenocorticism undergoing treatment (n = 28), as well as with untreated (n = 35) and treated hypoadrenocorticism (n = 23) were analyzed and compared to apparently healthy dogs (n = 40). A validated targeted proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) platform was used to quantify 123 parameters. Principal component analysis separated the untreated endocrinopathies. The serum samples of dogs with untreated endocrinopathies showed various metabolic abnormalities with often contrasting results particularly in serum concentrations of fatty acids, and high- and low-density lipoproteins and their constituents, which were predominantly increased in hyperadrenocorticism and decreased in hypoadrenocorticism, while amino acid concentrations changed in various directions. Many observed serum metabolic abnormalities tended to normalize with medical treatment, but normalization was incomplete when compared to levels in apparently healthy dogs. Application of machine learning models based on the metabolomics data showed good classification, with misclassifications primarily observed in treated groups. Characterization of metabolic changes enhances our understanding of these endocrinopathies. Further assessment of the recognized incomplete reversal of metabolic alterations during medical treatment may improve disease management.

description: Welds are a common method of joining metallic components in buildings, bridges and offshore structures, but they are susceptible to fatigue crack initiation and slow but accelerating growth arising due to fluctuating service loads, eventually resulting in fracture unless detected. Recently developed and unique Hellier-Brennan-Carr (HBC) parametric equations give the surface stress concentration factor (SCF) and stress distribution through the main plate thickness (i.e. the potential Mode I crack plane) at a T-butt weld toe as a function of a wide variety of weld geometries, for tension (membrane) loading. An existing Brennan-Dover-Karé-Hellier (BDKH) parametric equation is available for T-butt weld toe stress intensity factor (SIF) geometric Y-factor at the deepest point of a semi-elliptical surface crack, also subject to tension (membrane) loading. Three fatigue crack propagation programs have been written in FORTRAN. FATIGUE1 utilises the BDKH tension equation and the Paris Law to predict the (Stage 2) fatigue propagation life of a T-butt weld containing an initial semi-elliptical surface flaw. FATIGUE2 utilises the BDKH tension equation in conjunction with the Forman Equation to predict the semi-elliptical flaw fatigue life in the presence of a mean applied stress (i.e. with fixed stress ratio R > 0). FATIGUE3 utilises both the BDKH tension equation and the HBC tension equation in conjunction with the Forman Equation to predict the semi-elliptical flaw fatigue life in the presence of a known residual stress distribution from the literature (for 350 grade structural steel). The maximum and minimum stress values are calculated at each incremental crack length, from the applied stress at the crack tip given by the HBC tension equation added to the discretised value of residual stress at the same point. Thus the R-ratio is recalculated at the crack tip for every crack increment. Positive R-ratios increase the fatigue crack propagation rate; negative values result in some crack closure, reducing the propagation rate.

PHYSICOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION AND ACTIVATION OF LOCAL BENTONITE TO ADSORB DYE AND CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND FROM THE EFFLUENT OF A TEXTILE FACTORY
Creators: name: ASEGED TEBEJE TASEW
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2020
Subjects: Bentonite Acid and thermal activation, Characterization, Adsorption, Optimal design, Analysis of variance

description: The use of low cost and environmentally friendly adsorbent to remove dye and
 chemical oxygen demand from wastewater is very important. Bentonite is cheap and
 ecofriendly adsorbent but due to its small specific surface area, it requires modification.
 The objective of the research is to prepare activated local bentonite for adsorption of
 textile wastewater and to optimize the adsorption process using design expert software,
 version 11. Acid and thermal activation (ATA) was carried out with different acid
 concentrations (0.1M, 2 M,5 M,7 M, and 10 M) and calcination (100 ºC) consecutively.
 The surface property of raw and activated bentonite was characterized by BrunauerEmmett-Teller (BET) surface analyzer, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Fouriertransform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). It was observed
 that BET surface area increased from 90 m2g-1 to 277 m2g-1 when activated at 7 M
 sulfuric acid concentration.
 The adsorption capacity of the activated bentonite was investigated by the ability to
 adsorb basic dye and reduce COD from textile waste wastewater. The effects of contact
 time, pH and adsorbent dosage on the removal efficiency were optimized using optimal
 (custom) design, response surface methodology (RSM). Based on the design, two
 quadratic models were developed to correlate the parameter variables to the dye and
 COD removal. Furthermore, the analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to check the
 significance of the model and obtained coefficient of determination (R2) 0.9774 and
 0.9858 for dye and COD removal, respectively. Optimum adsorption was obtained at
 a contact time of 112 min, pH of 9.5 and adsorbent dosage of 1.75 g, which resulted in
 93.16 % and 76.86 % removal of dye and COD, respectively. Therefore, RSM can be
 used to optimize the adsorption of basic dye and COD from textile wastewater using
 activated bentonite clay.

Toward Maghreb monetary unification: what does the theory and history tell us?

description: Since the beginning of the decade, numerous economic and monetary unification projects have aroused a lot of interest. The reinforcement of economic and monetary integration, especially in Europe, has set a trend for the creation of a monetary union in many others regions of the world. Since then, the debate has moved towards the study of the parameters that justify the creation of a single currency. However, another current of thought emphasized the fragility of the traditional theory and considered the criteria as incomplete, since this theory insists solely on a few elements concerning the adjustment process under various exchange regimes (Bogdan 2004). Also, many monetary unions have existed and lasted without meeting this theory?s criteria. Other economists recommend studying the history of these monetary unions so as to define the necessary conditions for the success of a monetary integration (Sharp 2005, Jonung 2002). Within Maghreb, the completion of the regional integration process, initiated in 1989 by the creation of the Arab Maghreb Union (AMU) and the establishment of the Maghreb monetary union would have a positive impact on economic growth, good governance and political stability. In this paper, we showed that the Maghreb Countries can not constitute a monetary block that satisfies the criteria of optimality. Moreover, the study of historical experiences also allowed us to verify that the MCs have to strengthen their political coordination and improve their budgetary and financial situations to establish a lasting monetary union. Finally, with the aim of a Maghreb monetary unification, we conclude with the idea that these countries have to make more efforts to gather economico-institutional conditions essential to the institution of one of the two preliminary proposed monetary systems, namely a pure float with inflation targeting or a currency board.

How do innovative banking channels reduce costs in downscaling?
Creators: name: HAAS, Eike
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Bergamo
Year: 2014

description: This paper analyzes and quantifies cost structures of agent-assisted banking beyond branches channels (ABCs) and compares them to the costs of branch channels1. This addresses a gap in the existing literature. The qualitative review finds that ABCs maximize the proportion of variable costs that depend on realized transactions, which match revenue flows. ABCs reduce investment and operating costs, since existing agent business infrastructure is enhanced and shared. In the context of downscaling, ABCs bridge the major barrier for commercial banks: the expensive last mile to the customer. The quantitative review finds that POS / PC terminal-based ABCs reduce transactional costs to 58 percent of branch channel costs and mobile-based ABCs to 15 percent. Apart from analysis and quantification of cost structures, this paper develops a comprehensive definition of ABCs. Likewise, downscaling is defined; the two research fields are linked and investigated from a commercial banking perspective. This addresses gaps in the existing literature.

description: Animals have evolved different defensive strategies to survive predation, among which chemical defences are particularly widespread and diverse. Here we investigate the function of chemical defence diversity, hypothesizing that such diversity has evolved as a response to multiple enemies. The aposematic wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis) displays conspicuous hindwing coloration and secretes distinct defensive fluids from their thoracic glands and abdomen. We presented the two defensive fluids from lab-reared moths to two biologically relevant predators, birds and ants, and measured their reaction in controlled bioassays (no information on colour was provided). We found that defensive fluids are target-specific: thoracic fluids, and particularly the 2-sec-butyl-3-methoxypyrazine (SBMP) which they contain, deterred birds, but caused no aversive response in ants. In contrast, abdominal fluids were particularly deterrent to ants, while birds did not find them repellent. Our study is the first to show evidence of a single species producing separate chemical defences targeted to different predator types, highlighting the importance of taking into account complex predator communities in studies on the evolution of prey defence diversity.

description: In recent years, the circular economy and sustainability have gained attention in the food industry aimed at recycling food industrial waste and residues. For example, several plant-based materials are nowadays used in packaging and biofuel production. Among them, by-products and waste from coffee processing constitute a largely available, low cost, good quality resource. Coffee production includes many steps, in which by-products are generated including coffee pulp, coffee husks, silver skin and spent coffee. This review aims to analyze the reasons why coffee waste can be considered as a valuable source in recycling strategies for the sustainable production of bio-based chemicals, materials and fuels. It addresses the most recent advances in monomer, polymer and plastic filler productions and applications based on the development of viable biorefinery technologies. The exploration of strategies to unlock the potential of this biomass for fuel productions is also revised. Coffee by-products valorization is a clear example of waste biorefinery. Future applications in areas such as biomedicine, food packaging and material technology should be taken into consideration. However, further efforts in techno-economic analysis and the assessment of the feasibility of valorization processes on an industrial scale are needed.
Projected forest coverage data from 2020 to 2050

Subjects: classificationCode: 300703
subject: Forest ecosystems

description: This data describes the changes in future forest areas (including the areas of planted and natural forests) projected from 2020 to 2050 in China. For planted forests, the provincial areas of new plantations were obtained from the National Forest Management Plan 2016-2050 released by the State Forestry and Grassland Administration of China. The afforestation rate was assumed to be the same as the rate during the 9th NFI in each province. We also assumed that tree survival would be between 47% and 85%. Since China restricts further conversion of croplands and wetlands to forestland for food security and biodiversity conservation, we assumed that future plantations would only be allowed to be converted from grassland and shrubland. For natural forests, we assumed that the areas will increase according to the “Mid- and Long-Term Protection and Recovery Plan of Natural Forests in China (2022-2035)” released by the National Forestry and Grassland Administration of China. Therefore, the data includes the forest area changes under two scenarios (i.e., planted forests with 47% and 85% survival rates)

description: The decline of wildlife populations due to emerging infectious disease often shows a common pattern: the parasite invades a naive host population producing epidemic disease and a population decline, sometimes with extirpation. Some susceptible host populations can survive the epidemic phase and persist with endemic parasitic infection. Understanding host–parasite dynamics leading to persistence of the system is imperative to adequately inform conservation practice. Here we combine field data, statistical and mathematical modelling to explore the dynamics of the apparently-stable Rhinoderma darwinii-Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) system. Our results indicate that Bd-induced population extirpation may occur even in the absence of epidemics and where parasite prevalence is relatively low. These empirical findings are consistent with previous theoretical predictions showing that highly pathogenic parasites are able to regulate host populations even at extremely low prevalence, highlighting that disease threats should be investigated as a cause of population declines even in the absence of an overt increase in mortality.

description: We compare the path integral for transition functions in unimodular gravity and in general relativity. In unimodular gravity the cosmological constant is a property of states that are specified at the boundaries whereas in general relativity the cosmological constant is a parameter of the action. Unimodular gravity with a nondynamical background spacetime volume element has a time variable that is canonically conjugate to the cosmological constant. Wave functions depend on time and satisfy a Schrödinger equation. On the contrary, in the covariant version of unimodular gravity with a 3-form gauge field, proposed by Henneaux and Teitelboim, wave functions are time independent and satisfy a Wheeler-DeWitt equation, as in general relativity. The 3-form gauge field integrated over spacelike hypersurfaces becomes a 'cosmic time' only in the semiclassical approximation. In unimodular gravity the smallness of the observed cosmological constant has to be explained as a property of the initial state.

Metagenome interpretation depends on the recovery of high-quality genomes from short-read data through the application of performant assemblers followed by binners. The Initiative for the Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation (CAMI) analyzed the results of a large number of methods thoroughly on benchmark datasets. Several binners in the CAMI II challenges performed well on gold standards representing perfect assemblies. However, performance was impacted on assemblies of MEGAHIT. To investigate whether certain methods are particularly capable of recovering high-quality genomes, here we benchmark various combinations of assemblers and binners on the marine dataset of the CAMI II challenge.

description: Poster presented by Fernando Meyer at the 30th Conference on Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology (ISMB 2022), July 10-14, 2022, in Madison, USA.

The Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation (CAMI) is an initiative for the evaluation of methods for metagenome analysis through community involvement in the design of benchmark datasets, evaluation procedures, choice of performance metrics and questions to focus on. The first CAMI challenge delivered insights into the performances of metagenome assembly, genome and taxonomic binning and profiling programs across multiple complex benchmark datasets, including unpublished genomes. In the second round of challenges (CAMI II), we assessed program performances and progress on even larger and more complex datasets sampled from ~1,700 genomes and ~600 circular elements, including long-read data and further performance metrics such as runtime and memory use.
title: Entanglement enhanced communication and sensing
Creators: name: Restuccia, Sara
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020

description: Entanglement has been an extremely active field of research both from a theoretical and an experimental point of view. As the understanding of the phenomena grows, so does the interest in using it to advance different technological fields: communica- tion, computing and sensing being just some examples. It is now well known that entangled photon pairs can be generated through a process known as spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC). In this thesis I therefore integrate the SPDC generated photons in a variety of experiments each exploiting a different charac- teristic of this quantum effect. In particular, both chapter 3 and chapter 4 utilise the spatial degree of freedom of SPDC generated entangled photons to enhance the quantity of information that can be transmitted in quantum communication systems. In particular, in chapter 3 the information capacity of two of the best known spa- tial modal sets is analysed in the context of real life finite-aperture communication systems, while chapter 4 proposed a new approach for imparting information onto photons. On the other hand, both chapters 5, and 6 rely on the ability of SPDC to generate completely indistinguishable photon pairs, which, when made to interfere, bunch together in what is known as N00N state. In particular, chapter 5 demon- strates that the recently discovered “Coherent Perfect Absorption” process (CPA) can be used to coherently control and absorb two-photon N00N states and therefore can be employed in the generation of quantum gates, while in chapter 6, the quantum interference process that produces the N00N states is used to test the role of relativity in quantum mechanics through the construction of a “quantum gyroscope”.

description: The Resilience Scale for Adolescents (READ) is a highly rated scale for measuring protective factors of resilience. Even though the READ has been validated in several different cultural samples, no studies have validated the READ across samples in German from Switzer-land and Germany. The purpose of this study was to explore the con-struct validity of the German READ version in two samples from two different countries and to test the measurement invariance between those two samples. The expected negative correlations between READ and HSCL-25 and the positive correlations between RSE, self-efficacy, and SWL were supported. Furthermore, the results of the measurement invari-ance demonstrated that the originally proposed five-dimensional structure is equal in the German and Swiss samples, and it can be assumed that the same construct was assessed by excluding one item.

description: This report presents the results of the activities of the Models and Effective Field Theories Subgroup of the Off-Shell Interpretations Task Force in the LHC Higgs Working Group. The main goal of the subgroup was to discuss and advance the potential impact of off-shell Higgs measurements on searches for BSM physics carried out in the EFT framework or as benchmark model studies. In the first contribution, the off-shell potential to resolve flat directions in parameter space for on-shell measurements is studied. Furthermore, the sensitivity of off-shell measurements to SMEFT dimension-6 operators for the $gg$ $\to$ $ZZ$ process is discussed, and studies of explicit models that are testable in off-shell production are reviewed. In the second contribution, the SMEFT effects in the off-shell gluon fusion and electroweak processes are discussed. Subsequently, the computation of integrated and differential effects using SMEFT@NLO and MG5_aMC@NLO, or JHUGen and MCFM, is demonstrated. On that basis, a study of the prospects of obtaining additional SMEFT constraints - beyond those from global fits - by utilising the off-shell process is presented. For clarification, a revised introduction, definition and discussion of the Higgs basis parametrisation of the SMEFT is given in the third contribution. In short notes on the SMEFT, the Higgs basis with an additional constraint is discussed and relations between the Higgs and Warsaw bases are presented. Lastly, an overview of EFT calculations and tools is given.

description: The electroweak (EW) sector of the Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (MSSM), assuming the lightest neutralino as Dark Matter (DM) candidate, can account for a variety of experimental results. In particular it can account for the discrepancy between the experimental result for the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon, $(g-2)_{\mu}$, and its Standard Model (SM) prediction. The new 'MUON G-2' result, combined with the older BNL result on $(g-2)_{\mu}$, yields a deviation from the SM prediction of $\Delta a_{\mu} = (25.1 \pm 5.9) \times 10^{-10}$, corresponding to $4.2~\sigma$. Using this updated bound, together with the other constraints, we calculate the MSSM prediction for the mass of the $W$ boson, $M_W$. We assume contributions only from the EW sector, with the colored sector of the MSSM taken to be heavy. We investigate five scenarios, distinguished by the mechanisms which yield a relic DM density in agreement with the latest Planck bounds. We find that with the new $(g-2)_{\mu}$ result taken into account and depending on the scenario, values up to $M_W^{\mathrm{MSSM}} \lesssim 80.376~\mathrm{GeV}$ are reached. The largest values are obtained for wino DM and in the case of slepton co-annihilation, where points well within the $1\,\sigma$ range of the experimental world average of $M_W^{\mathrm{exp}} = 80.379 \pm~0.012~\mathrm{GeV}$ are reached, whereas the SM predicts a too small value of $M_W^{\mathrm{SM}} = 80.353~\mathrm{GeV}$. We analyze the dependence of $M_W^{\mathrm{MSSM}}$ on the relevant masses of the EW superpartners and demonstrate that future $M_W$ measurements, e.g. at the ILC, could distinguish between various MSSM realizations. Sizable contributions to $M_W^{\mathrm{MSSM}}$ are associated with a relatively light $\tilde{\chi}^0_1$, accompanied by either a light chargino or a light smuon, setting interesting targets for future collider searches.

description: Included here, dear reader, is a discussion that took place between media and design author and scholar Shannon Mattern and perennial continent. probationer Jamie Allen. The conversation occurred on a rather rainy and cold day, on a walk that Shannon and Jamie took through Basel, Switzerland, toward the Central Signal Box building. Shannon Mattern had come to Switzerland at Jamie’s invitation, as part of a lecture series called “Medialogue”, held jointly by the Critical Media Lab Basel and the Medienwissenschaft group at Universität Basel. The Signal Box is an infrastructural landmark that delimits a transition between residential and (formerly) industrial zones in Kanton Basel-Stadt. The building was designed by locals, stalwart innovators and ‘starchitects’ Herzog and Herzog & de Meuron, whose numerous offices and archives in Basel are all but a few minutes’ tram-ride away.
title: Reprocessing Waste into Chlorella vulgaris Biomass – A Strategy of Developing Next-Generation Food and Feed

subject: cultivation

description: Humanity is confronted with over population joined with increasing greenhouse gas emissions and advancing depletion of the world’s resources. Thus, alternative food and feed sources are strongly demanded. Microalgae arouse attention due to their capability of converting light into highly nutritious biomass and fixating the greenhouse gas CO2. However, the cultivation of microalgae in a sustainable and economically-viable manner is still in the developing phase.In this thesis, a new approach of using wheat straw hydrolysates (WSH) as a substrate for Chlorella vulgaris was studied. While C. vulgaris is a well-known food and feed microalgae,wheat straw is an abundantly occurring lignocellulosic waste product. Reprocessing WSH intoC. vulgaris biomass has the potential to reduce cultivation cost and enhance sustainability.Growth parameters and biochemical composition of C. vulgaris in different concentrated WSHunder mixotrophic and heterotrophic conditions were studied. Results were compared to the cultivation of C. vulgaris in a defined medium and to a photoautotrophic control culture. While mixotrophic conditions in WSH showed 1,5-fold higher biomass concentration compared to photoautotrophic cultivation, heterotrophic cultivation resulted in 4-times lower biomass concentration. The cultivation of C. vulgaris in WSH had no adverse effect on the protein and chlorophyll content, being crucial parameters for the food and feed market. Hence, the usage of WSH as a substrate for C. vulgaris still has the potential to reduce processing costs, but research on optimising growth performance is required.

description: A persistent challenge in the field of spintronics is the search for suitable materials that enable the circumvention of the impedance mismatch preventing efficient spin-injection from metallic ferromagnetic conductors into semiconductors. One promising material is europium sulfide (EuS), a ferromagnetic semiconductor below the Curie temperature of 16.5 K. Investigation and optimization of the conditions required for high-quality growth of epitaxial EuS films on suitable substrates are thus of particular interest for the creation of efficient devices. We present the results of a growth-mode study employing atomic force microscopy and spot-profile analysis low-energy electron diffraction (SPA-LEED) of epitaxial EuS thin films deposited by electron-beam evaporation on InAs(100) substrates with varying combinations of, respectively, growth and annealing temperatures, Tg and Ta, from room temperature to 400 °C. We observed Stranski-Krastanov-like growth featuring low-roughness surfaces with root mean square values between 0.4 – 0.9 nm for all temperature combinations. An increased tendency for nucleation into grains and islands was observed for higher Ta from 300 – 400 °C. The corresponding nucleation mode, defined by varying degrees of 2D and 3D nucleation, was dependent on Tg. A 2D island growth mode was observed for Tg = 150 °C and Ta = 400 °C featuring a sharp and bright SPA-LEED pattern. This suggests the formation of a highly ordered, smooth surface for these growth conditions thereby providing a good starting point for optimization attempts for potential future devices.

description: In diesem Buch äußern sich Komponisten zu historischen Phänomenen in der Musik wie auch zu gerade abgeschlossenen oder noch in Arbeit befindlichen eigenen Werken. Es entsteht ein spannungreiches Diskursfeld, das von der griechischen Antike bis in die Gegenwart reicht. Fast alle Autoren lehren oder lehrten an der Hochschule für Musik Basel; zwei Aufsätze beruhen auf ausgezeichneten Abschlussarbeiten. Die Vielfalt der Darstellungs- und Erkenntnistechniken, Denk- und Diskursstile ließe sich indes nur mit Gewalt zum Begriff einer »Basler Schule« zwingen. Vielmehr spiegeln sie die polyphone Situation unserer Institution und geben einige Beispiele dafür, was Forschung an einer Musikhochschule bedeuten kann.
