description: AbstractHarvesting Giant Freshwater Prawn, Golda (Macrobrachium rosenbergii de Man 1879) inthe Sundarnbans mangrove forest plays an important role in the economy of the country aswell as the livelihood of local community. The study focused the economic assessment ofsmall-scale artisanal Golda fishery. Overall the Hookline gear showed the best performancein terms of economic return. However, it was found to withstand a shock from 20% decreasein market prices or 30% fall in catch rate in terms of Return on investment, payback periodand Benefit-cost ratio. Operating cost and fixed cost for Hookline fishery was the lowest andKhathijal was the highest. No significant variation (P<0.05) observed in the mean catch rateper trip boat-1 among the gears studied. Total revenue earned after completion a trip variedconsiderably between BDT 1,307 to 1,562. Yearly, total net revenue reached at the maximumby Hookline (BDT 38,506), followed by Chandijal (BDT 38,377) and the minimum byKhalpata (BDT 33,885). The findings of this study are supposed to be helpful for policymakers in improving the current status of Golda fishery and relevant human livelihood aswell as conserving the Sundarbans Mangrove Ecosystem

description: AbstractThe study was conducted through 24 individual surveys in the SME of Bangladesh covering16 river/canals and 32 locations (one-third area) of the Sundarbans by direct interviews ofrandomly selected 1,989 fishermen from 545 non-mechanized boats and 1,428 active gearsfrom eight types of gear. The source of credit, agreement of Dadan, variability in prices,profit distribution agreement between boat/gear owner and the fishing labour, catch volume,and the relation between the fisher and the landing centers (i.e., intimacy and expectedmarket prices) were found to be determinant factors in determining the place for landings ofthe harvested catches in the study area. There was access of fishers to the formal creditmarkets (i.e. scheduled banks or cooperatives) at 13±2.83 (11-15) % interest. However, therate of interest offered by the NGOs was significantly higher (mean: 45±31, range: 18-76%)than the bank rates. A number of formalities were found to inhibit fishers to receive creditfrom Banks and NGOs. About 60-100% of the value of Galda catch, after covering theoperational costs, was taken by the boat and gear owner. The share of the labor also varied bythe type of work performed (catching, drying, transporting, cooking on boat etc.). Theaverage prices of Galda at landing centers are varied from BDT 290 to 750 kg-1. The averageprices of Galda at landing centers and in international markets were BDT 290 and 750 kg-1,respectively in 2006. The Department of Forest, being the legal authority in the managementof aquatic resources inside the waters of the SME of Bangladesh should care the sustainablemanagement of small-scale fisheries to ensure a sustainable growth rate of Galda, and protectover exploitation. Proper and easy financial and credit supports is needed for the economicbetterment of the small fishers. Hence the findings and the recommendations of this study issupposed to be helpful for policy makers in improving the current status of Galda fishery andrelevant human livelihood as well as conserving the Sundarbans Mangrove Ecosystemecosystem.

description: ABSTRACT*Like many other countries, Public-Private Partnership (PPP) has been appreciated as animportant way out for infrastructure development in Bangladesh. Though there have beenrecent successes in institutional and regulatory framework, other critical issues liketransaction expertise, PPP financing facilities are yet to be boosted in the country. There alsoneeds to have a strong incentive for the executing agencies that will bring more bankable PPPprojects for the private sector. So far, around 40 private sector infrastructure projects havebeen completed in Bangladesh with total investment value of US$ 2.9339 billion, and around40 projects are in the national pipeline. Many PPP projects that were awarded earlier are notperforming well due to weaknesses in transaction process. Under this circumstance, tosuccessfully implement PPP projects it is essential to evaluate the effectiveness of theexisting PPP project framework in Bangladesh. This paper analyze the selected PPP projectsin Bangladesh to draw lesson in the perspectives of the institutional, regulatory, projectfinancing, and other policy relevant issues. The paper specially focuses on up-front projectdevelopment constrains and corresponding solutions for creating a greater PPP enableenvironment in the country

description: AbstractClimate change has mixed impacts on agriculture that differ among the areas, periods, andcrops. The changing factors of climate, especially rainfall and temperature, have been causingvery strong negative impacts on Malaysian agriculture. Projection shows that the gapbetween current and potential yields will increase more in future that would lead to anunsustainable nature of agriculture in Malaysia. Based on the time series linear and log linearOLS regression model, this paper discusses the impacts of rainfall and temperature on thepaddy sector by using the micro data of IADA at North West Selangor, Malaysia from 1992to 2007. This study found that the output of micro data varies with the aggregate data, andconcludes that both temperature and rainfall have significant negative impacts on paddyproduction. It also provides policy recommendations and action plans to adapt and to copeproperly with the changing nature of climate factors

description: ABSTRACTEconomic zone or export processing zone in a country is a purpose-built industrial park withinfrastructure designed to suit the needs of foreign as well as local investors. In order to temptforeign investors into the zones the host developing countries offer a variety of incentives. Byencouraging and motivating the multinational companies to settle their Greenfieldinvestments in developing countries, the economic zone scheme acts as a toolfor empowering the local economy to gain multiple capabilities and go global increasingly tofacilitate income convergence between the industrialized and the developing countriesthrough equitable sharing of the gains from trade. Nonetheless, it is not a magic wand. Itsexperiences in Malaysia and Bangladesh clearly show that it can create wonder only when itis appropriately designed and managed. It is suggested that Bangladesh borrows a leaf fromthe rich experiences of Malaysia‟s economic zone model, to restructure and revitalize hereconomic zone scheme for greater success

description: Standing dead trees (snags) play important roles in forest ecology by storing carbon as well as providing habitats for many species. Moreover, snags preserved for hundreds of years can provide useful data to extend tree-ring chronologies used for climatological and ecological studies beyond the lifespans of living trees. Here we examined the growth patterns of Scots pine snags from the central Scandinavian Mountains, in relation to still living trees. Using changes point analyses, we showed that a majority (74%) of the snags displayed significant negative growth changes prior (on average 17 years) to death. Change points around the same years were also seen in living trees, but they recovered their growth. The average growth reduction of snags showing negative growth changes before death was 46%. In most cases the final growth change points coincided with very cold summers, or to a lesser degree to period of cool summers. It was suggested that pines ending up as snags were less resilient than the trees which continued living, and thus not able to recover after cold summer events. Since the snag growth reductions prior to death were partly unrelated to climate, care should be taken when using such data in dendroclimatological studies.

description: AbstractBangladesh is the largest floodplain land of the world, which constitutes 80% land areasand 73% of households of the country. In the floodplain beel area, there are three types offishermen – part-time, full-time, and subsistence – who mostly depend on the fishing inthe monsoon time. However, due to environmental degradation and over exploitation ofresources the fish production in these beels has dropped down significantly. Therefore, toensure the efficient ways of harvesting and to ensure the socioeconomic welfare of thefishermen, understanding the nature and efficiency of available gears is very important.To measure the productivity of locally used gears this study collected primary data fromthe beel Sholiamary and beel Gheramary areas from Mymensingh Sadar in Bangladeshthrough a questionnaire survey based on simple stratified random sampling method. Thedata were analyzed though descriptive statistics, percentile analysis, one-way analysis ofvariance (ANOVA) F-test, Post Hoc (Scheffe) test, and Pearson’s correlation test. Thestatistical tests were measured at 1%, 5%, and 10% significance levels. This studyconcluded that the physical productivity in terms of daily catches and economicproductivity in terms of income from fishing differed significantly among the availablegears—five fishing nets, one fishing trap and two wounding gears. The highest number ofused gears was wounding, and the lowest one was seine-net. The highest fishing effortand fishing duration were recorded for bair, and lowest fishing effort was for seine-netand lowest fishing duration was for push-net. However based on catch per unit of effortthe seine-net was found the most productive gear and the bair was the least productivegear. In terms of monetary return (TK), gill-net and long-line provided the highest valueand bair the lowest

description: AbstractIn shrimp culture, various diseases, white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) in particular, has beenemerging as a serious constraint affecting shrimp culture in Bangladesh. In this study, effort hasbeen given assessing the risk factors for WSSV outbreak under which 72 farms were investigatedbelonging 4 Upazilas of Bagerhat (Kochua, Rampal, Fakirhat) and Khulna (Paikgacha) district ofBangladesh from January to June 2011. Major scenario depicted improved traditional culturemethod. PCR test has been carried out to confirm WSSV infection. About 20 factors wereconsidered in assessing the association of WSSV outbreak. Study revealed significant correlationwith some factors like accessibility of cattle (r=0.630, p≤.01) and linked up with other ghers(r=0.754, p≤.01) within a cluster (Spearman’s rho correlation coefficient test). PearsonCorrelation coefficient for salinity found to have significant correlation with the risk of WSSVinfection (r= -0.727, p≤.01), followed by temperature (0.624, p≤.01) and average depth (-0.618,p≤.01), however, feeding kept 30.6% farms away from the outbreak followed by sludge removal(26.39% farms). On the contrary, uses of river water directly into the ghers pose 38.9% risk ofbeing attacked which is absolutely nill and 1.4% for the underground and rain water respectively.Disease prone months found in March to June and out of the four upazilas, Fakirhat found to beless infected due to better management. Therefore, ensuring proper gher management practice,virus free Pl, awareness buildup at the farmer level and community based farm managementdevelopment can act as preventive measures in reducing the risk of WSSV infection.

description: ABSTRACTIt seems to have been apparent in developing nations that economic growth andurbanization are always interrelated. Malaysia's rapid economic growth has also resultedin a considerable growth of urbanization. As gleaned from the other side of the coin, theprocess of such urbanization had twisted numerous negative impacts on the socioeconomicaspects of the urban low income and poor communities living in the low-costflats and squatters. One of the major impacts of Malaysia's rapid urbanization is thetransformation in the socio-economic profile of the urban low income and poorcommunities. This paper aims to determine and analyze the socio-economic indicatorsaffecting the profile of the urban low income and poor communities residing in thesquatters and low-cost flats of Kuala Lumpur city, Malaysia. To pursue the objective, thestudy has conducted a field survey, collected primary data from the level of livingconditions of the urban low income and poor households and has employed somestatistical techniques such as descriptive statistics, analysis of variance (ANOVA), andthe chi-square test. The empirical findings of this study appeared to have important policyimplications and are expected to enable the respective policy and decision makers in theireffort to alleviate urban poverty

This study compared the instability of a shoe with unpredictably random midsole deformations, an irregular surface and a control shoe-surface while treadmill walking and running. Three-dimensional kinematics and electromyography were recorded of the lower limb in 18 active males. Gait cycle characteristics, joint angles at initial ground contact and maximum values during stance, and muscle activations prior to initial contact and during loading were analysed. Perceived stability, injury-risk and energy consumption were evaluated. Instability was assessed by movement variability, muscular activations and subjective ratings. Posture alterations at initial contact revealed active adaptations in the irregular midsole and irregular surface to maintain stability while walking and running. Variability of the gait cycle and lower limb kinematics increased on the irregular surface compared to the control across locomotion types. Similarly increased variability (coefficient of variation) were found in the irregular midsole compared to the control for frontal ankle motion (walk: 31.1 and 14.9, run: 28.1 and 11.6), maximum sagittal knee angle (walk: 7.6 and 4.8, run: 2.8 and 2.4), and global gait characteristics during walking only (2.1 ± 0.5 and 1.6 ± 0.3). Tibialis anterior pre-activation reduced and gastrocnemius activation increased in the irregular midsole compared to the control across locomotion types. During running, peroneus longus activation increased in the irregular midsole and irregular surface. Results indicate random shoe midsole deformations enhanced instability relative to the control and simulated certain locomotion adaptations of the irregular surface, although less pronounced. Thus, a shoe with unpredictable instability revealed potential as a novel instability-training device.

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.

description: AbstractThe Sundarnbans mangrove forest has been an immense source of aquatic resources from time immemorial.Among the resources, harvesting of Giant Freshwater Prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii de Man 1879) playsan important role in the economy of the country, therefore, this investigation was carried out to assess the GearEfficiency for Harvesting Artisanal Giant Freshwater Prawn Fisheries from the Sundarbans MangroveEcosystem in Bangladesh. Four types of non-mechanized crafts made of fourteen types of wood were found inharvesting Giant Freshwater Prawn. Crafts were varied from 6.25±0.35 to 8.2±0.71 m in length, 1.1±0.14 to1.75±0.36 m in breadth and 0.65±1.07 to 1.55±3.16 m in depth with a carrying capacity of 0.40 - 1.00 MT withan economic life of 10±2.11 years. A total of eight types of gears, namely, Hookline, Behundijal, Badhajal,Charpata, Chandijal, Gillnet, Kathijal and KhalPata were found in Giant Freshwater Prawn fishing. Amongthem the Hookline was the only main primary active Giant Freshwater Prawn fishing gear while the rest of theseven gears were multi-species gears which harvest Giant Freshwater Prawn as a by-catch. Only 13.6% of 1,989fishers were found to use Hookline; the rest, 86.4% of fishers used the seven other gears. They only harvest3.24% Giant Freshwater Prawn as a by-catch. The highest daily harvest volume per boat (kg day-1 boat-1) was1.00±0.96 for the Kathijal followed by 0.99±0.27 for the Badhajal and 0.99±0.42 for the Hookline. The highestannual catch per boat (kg boat-1 yr-1) which was 172.80±0.29 was recorded for the Hookline followed by172.24±0.54 for the Chandijal and the lowest (152.08±0.21) for the Khalpata. Total annual catch by all the eightgears surveyed was estimated at 1318.60±0.37 kg from 1,428 unit gears, 545 individual boats and 1,989individual fishers. Based on the above scenario, Hookline showed the best performance among the 8 gears usedfor Giant Freshwater Prawn harvesting in the Sundarbans by the small-scale artisanal fishery. It is believedthat the findings and the recommendations of this study will be helpful to policy makers in improving the* Corresponding author, email: rony000current status of Giant Freshwater Prawn fishery and relevant livelihood as well as conserving the SMEecosystem

description: Myogenic transcription factors with a basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) such as MYOD, myogenin, MRF4, and MYF5 contribute to muscle differentiation and regulation. The MYF5 gene located on chromosome 12 encodes for myogenic factor 5 (MYF5), which has a role in skeletal and extraocular muscle development and rib formation. Variants in MYF5 were found to cause external ophthalmoplegia with rib and vertebral anomalies (EORVA), a rare recessive condition. To date, three homozygous variants in MYF5 have been reported to cause EORVA in six members of four unrelated families. Here, we present a novel homozygous MYF5 frameshift variant, c.596dupA p. (Asn199Lysfs*49), causing premature protein termination and presenting with external ophthalmoplegia, ptosis, and scoliosis in three siblings from a consanguineous family of Pakistani origin. With four MYF5 variants now discovered, genetic testing and paediatric assessment for extra-ocular features should be considered in all cases of congenital ophthalmoplegia.

description: Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have the potential to unlock novel photonic and chemical technologies if their optoelectronic properties can be understood and controlled. Yet, recent work has offered contradictory explanations for how TMD absorption spectra change with carrier concentration, fluence, and time. Here, we test our hypothesis that the large broadening and shifting of the strong band-edge features observed in optical spectra arise from the formation of negative trions. We do this by fitting an ab initio based, many-body model to our experimental electrochemical data. Our approach provides an excellent, global description of the potential-dependent linear absorption data. We further leverage our model to demonstrate that trion formation explains the non-monotonic potential dependence of the transient absorption spectra, including through photoinduced derivative lineshapes for the trion peak. Our results motivate the continued development of theoretical methods to describe cutting-edge experiments in a physically transparent way.

A Unified Model for Non-Fickian Diffusion and Anomalous Swelling of Glassy Polymer Gels

description: A sheet of glassy polymers placed in a solvent shows swelling behaviors quite different from that of soft polymers (rubbers and gels). (1) Non-Fickian diffusion (called case II diffusion): As solvent permeates into the sample, a sharp front is created between the swollen part and the glassy part, and it moves toward the center at constant speed. (2) Nonmonotonous swelling: The thickness of the sample first increases and then decreases toward the equilibrium value. Here we propose a theory to explain such anomalous behavior by extending the previous theory for swelling of soft gels. We regard the material as a continuum mixture of a glassy polymer network and solvent. We assume that the polymer network is a viscoelastic gel of glassy polymers, and its relaxation time depends strongly on solvent concentration. We show that this theory explains the above two characteristics of glassy polymers in a simple and unified framework. The theory predicts how the permeation speed of the solvent and the characteristic times of the swelling process depend on material parameters and experimental conditions, which can be checked experimentally.

description: We recently showed that, after optimization, our methyl-CpG binding domain sequencing (MBD-seq) application approximates the methylome-wide coverage obtained with whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGB-seq), but at a cost that enables adequately powered large-scale association studies. A prior drawback of MBD-seq is the relatively large amount of genomic DNA (ideally >1 µg) required to obtain high-quality data. Biomaterials are typically expensive to collect, provide a finite amount of DNA, and may simply not yield sufficient starting material. The ability to use low amounts of DNA will increase the breadth and number of studies that can be conducted. Therefore, we further optimized the enrichment step. With this low starting material protocol, MBD-seq performed equally well, or better, than the protocol requiring ample starting material (>1 µg). Using only 15 ng of DNA as input, there is minimal loss in data quality, achieving 93% of the coverage of WGB-seq (with standard amounts of input DNA) at similar false/positive rates. Furthermore, across a large number of genomic features, the MBD-seq methylation profiles closely tracked those observed for WGB-seq with even slightly larger effect sizes. This suggests that MBD-seq provides similar information about the methylome and classifies methylation status somewhat more accurately. Performance decreases with <15 ng DNA as starting material but, even with as little as 5 ng, MBD-seq still achieves 90% of the coverage of WGB-seq with comparable genome-wide methylation profiles. Thus, the proposed protocol is an attractive option for adequately powered and cost-effective methylome-wide investigations using (very) low amounts of DNA.
