Oil Spill Cleanup: Role of Obligate Hydrocarbonoclastic Bacteria
Creators: name: Mekala Sneha, Kotagiri Shivarama Krishna, Pritam Sarkar, Saurav Kumar
Publisher: name: The Science world a Monthly e magazine
Year: 2024

description: Over 70% of earth's surface is made up of oceans, which are essential for sustaining the life and controlling the planet's temperature. The abundance of marine life supports ecosystems by supplying essential services like carbon sequestration, oxygen generation, and climate regulation. Beyond their importance to the ecosystem, seas are essential for sustaining economy, providing food, assisting with industry, and promoting leisure and cultural pursuits. Oceans are used as way of transport between the countries for their trade majorly oil trade by the shipping industries. The global crude oil market is estimated to generate trillions of dollars in revenue annually. In 2022, the total value of global crude oil production was approximately $2.8 trillion, with OPEC countries accounting for a significant portion of this revenue. Trade activities can pose a risk of accidents, potentially resulting in oil spills. During the trade there may be possible of causing the accidents which leads to oil spill. This not only causes the pollution but also inflict harm upon marine life and huge economic loss. To mitigate the adverse impacts of oil spills, prompt cleanup is imperative. While conventional methods involving physical and chemical processes are employed globally, they often prove time-consuming and expensive. An economically viable and eco-friendly alternative involves use biological organisms, such as oil-eating bacteria, to efficiently remove oil from the ocean surface. Hydrocarbonoclastic bacteria (HCB) represent a diverse group of prokaryotes with the unique capability to degrade and utilize hydrocarbon compounds as a source of carbon and energy.

description: The objective of this pilot study was to determine the effect of dietary porcine plasma on circulating insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) concentrations in gestating sows and characteristics of their litters. Primiparous and multiparous sows were randomly allocated to two treatment groups of sows fed a basal diet or sows fed the basal diet plus 6 g of porcine plasma throughout gestation. On 4 periods during gestation and farrowing, blood was collected for IGF- 1 analysis. After farrowing, gestation length, number born, birth weight, and total litter weight were recorded. There were no three-way or two-way interactions between treatments, day of gestation, or parity for sow IGF-1 concentration (P>0.142). Treatment also did not affect (P=0.117) sow IGF-1 concentration. There were no treatment × parity or treatment effects on litter measures (P=0.170). Feeding porcine plasma at the low level employed in the study did not improve sow IGF-1 or litter measures.

description: We consider Funaki's model of a random string taking values in R^d. It is specified by the following stochastic PDE, du = u_{xx} + W, where W=W(x,t) is two-parameter white noise, also taking values in R^d. We study hitting properties, double points, and recurrence. The main difficulty is that the process has the Markov property in time, but not in space. We find: (1) The string hits points if d<6. (2) For fixed t, there are points x,y such that u(t,x)=u(t,y) iff d < 4. (3) There exist points t,x,y such that u(t,x)=u(t,y) iff d < 8. (4) There exist points s,t,x,y such that u(t,x)=u(s,y) iff d < 12. (5) The string is recurrent iff d < 7.

description: We study statistical properties after a sudden episode of wind for water waves propagating in one direction. A wave with random initial conditions is propagated using a forced-damped higher order Nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS). During the wind episode, the wave action increases, the spectrum broadens, the spectral mean shifts up and the Benjamin-Feir index (BFI) and the kurtosis increase. Conversely, after the wind episode, the opposite occurs for each quantity. The kurtosis of the wave height distribution is considered the main parameter that can indicate whether rogue waves are likely to occur in a sea state, and the BFI is often mentioned as a means to predict the kurtosis. However, we find that while there is indeed a quadratic relation between these two, this relationship is dependent on the details of the forcing and damping. Instead, a simple and robust quadratic relation does exist between the kurtosis and the bandwidth. This could allow for a single-spectrum assessment of the likelihood of rogue waves in a given sea state. In addition, as the kurtosis depends strongly on the damping and forcing coefficients, by combining the bandwidth measurement with the damping coefficient, the evolution of the kurtosis after the wind episode can be predicted.

description: Two recent observations of the nearby galaxy NGC 6946 with NuSTAR, one simultaneous with an XMM-Newton observation, provide an opportunity to examine its population of bright accreting sources from a broadband perspective. We study the three known ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in the galaxy, and find that ULX-1 and ULX-2 have very steep power-law spectra with $Γ=3.6^{+0.4}_{-0.3}$ in both cases. Their properties are consistent with being super-Eddington accreting sources with the majority of their hard emission obscured and down-scattered. ULX-3 (NGC 6946 X-1) is significantly detected by both XMM-Newton and NuSTAR at $L_{\rm X}=(6.5\pm0.1)\times10^{39}$ erg s$^{-1}$, and has a power-law spectrum with $Γ=2.51\pm0.05$. We are unable to identify a high-energy break in its spectrum like that found in other ULXs, but the soft spectrum likely hinders our ability to detect one. We also characterise the new source, ULX-4, which is only detected in the joint XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observation, at $L_{\rm X}=(2.27\pm0.07)\times10^{39}$ erg s$^{-1}$, and is absent in a Chandra observation ten days later. It has a very hard cut-off power-law spectrum with $Γ=0.7\pm0.1$ and $E_{\rm cut}=11^{+9}_{-4}$ keV. We do not detect pulsations from ULX-4, but its transient nature can be explained either as a neutron star ULX briefly leaving the propeller regime or as a micro-tidal disruption event induced by a stellar-mass compact object.

description: We have conducted a survey of intermediate Galactic latitudes using the 13-beam 21-cm multibeam receiver of the Parkes 64-m radio telescope. The survey covered the region enclosed by 5 deg < |b| < 15 deg and -100 deg < l < 50 deg with 4,702 processed pointings of 265 s each, for a total of 14.5 days of integration time. Thirteen 2x96-channel filterbanks provided 288 MHz of bandwidth at a centre frequency of 1374 MHz, one-bit sampled every 125 microsec and incurring ~DM/13.4 cm^-3 pc samples of dispersion smearing. The system was sensitive to slow and most millisecond pulsars in the region with flux densities greater than approximately 0.3--1.1 mJy. Offline analysis on the 64-node Swinburne workstation cluster resulted in the detection of 170 pulsars of which 69 were new discoveries. Eight of the new pulsars, by virtue of their small spin periods and period derivatives, may be recycled and have been reported elsewhere. The slow pulsars discovered are typical of those already known in the volume searched, being of intermediate to old age. Several pulsars experience pulse nulling and two display very regular drifting sub-pulses. We discuss the new discoveries and provide timing parameters for the 48 slow pulsars for which we have a phase-connnected solution.

description: National culture is among those societal factors which could influence research and innovation activities. In this study, we investigated the associations of two national culture models with citation impact of nations (measured by the proportion of papers belonging to the 10% and 1% most cited papers in the corresponding fields, PPtop 10% and PPtop 1%). Bivariate statistical analyses showed that of six Hofstede's national culture dimensions (HNCD), uncertainty avoidance and power distance had a statistically significant negative associa-tion, while individualism and indulgence had a statistically significant positive associationwith both citation impact indicators. The study also revealed that of two Inglehart-Welzel cultural values (IWCV), the value survival versus self-expression is statistically significantly related to citation impact indicators. We additionally calculated multiple regression analyses controlling for the possible effects of confounding factors including national self-citations, international co-authorships, invest-ments in research and development, international migrant stock, number of researchers ofeach nation, language, and productivity. The results revealed that the statistically significant associations of HNCD with citation impact indicators disappeared. But the statistically significant relationship between survivals versus self-expression values and citation impact indicators remained stable even after controlling for the confounding variables. Thus, the freedom of expression and trust in society might contribute to better scholarly communication systems, higher level of international collaborations, and further quality research.

description: We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of the late afterglow of GRB 000911, starting ~1 day after the burst event and lasting ~8 weeks. We detect a moderately significant re-brightening in the R, I and J lightcurves, associated with a sizable reddening of the spectrum. This can be explained through the presence of an underlying supernova, outshining the afterglow ~30 days after the burst event. Alternative explanations are discussed.

description: We present spatially resolved millimeter maps of Neptune between 95 and 242 GHz taken with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in $2016-2017$. The millimeter weighting functions peak between 1 and 10 bar on Neptune, lying in between the altitudes probed at visible/infrared and centimeter wavelengths. Thus, these observations provide important constraints on the atmospheric structure and dynamics of Neptune. We identify seven well-resolved latitudinal bands of discrete brightness temperature variations, on the order of $0.5-3$K in all three observed ALMA spectral bands. We model Neptune's brightness temperature using the radiative transfer code Radio-BEAR and compare how various H$_2$S, CH$_4$, and \textit{ortho/para} H$_2$ abundance profiles can fit the observed temperature variations across the disk. We find that observed variations in brightness temperature with latitude can be explained by variations in the H$_2$S profile that range from sub- to super-saturations at altitudes above the 10-bar pressure level, while variations in CH$_4$ improve the quality of fit near the equator. At the south polar cap, our best fit model has a depleted deep atmospheric abundance of H$_2$S from 30 to only 1.5 times the protosolar value, while simultaneously depleting the CH$_4$ abundance. This pattern of enhancement and depletion of condensable species is consistent with a global circulation structure where enriched air rises at the mid-latitudes ($32^{\circ}-12^{\circ}$S) and north of the equator ($2^{\circ}-20^{\circ}$N), and dry air descends at the poles ($90^{\circ}-66^{\circ}$S) and just south of the equator ($12^{\circ}$S$-2^{\circ}$N). Our analysis finds more complex structure near the equator than accounted for in previous circulation models.

description: The main drying link is the longest time-consuming stage in vacuum freeze-drying (VFD) technology. This study evaluated the effects of main drying temperature (constant temperature, variable temperature (VT)) on the drying characteristics and quality of scallion in VFD. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the drying time of VT and 4 °C group. However, the drying time of VT group was 48.38% shorter than that of −20 °C group. After VT-VFD, the scallion sample was brighter, the volume shrinkage and degree of tissue structure damage was lower, and the bioactives content was higher. Also, after rehydration, the VT-VFD scallion better retained its flavor than the constant temperature-VFD scallion. Therefore, VT drying can significantly improve the drying characteristics and product quality of VFD scallion.

description: Thermal characteristics in a vertical spiral-tube ground heat exchanger were addressed. The influences of backfill materials (sand/bentonite/graphite blend) and operation modes were examined. In the heating and cooling modes with Reynolds number of 2500, the integrated evaluation factors of tube in blend rose all by about 20% compared with in sand. The longer recovery time was helpful to improve the heat transfer of ground tube. In cooling mode, the surface heat transfer coefficients, ranged from 225 to 610 W m−2 K−1. The average surface heat transfer coefficient under heating mode was 11 percent higher than that in cooling mode.

description: Poultry litter contains high concentrations of water-soluble phosphorus and is readily transported in the farm run-off. This research aims to study the efficiency of heavy use area protection (HUAP) pads in decreasing litter spillage and phosphorous run-off at a Delaware poultry facility. Soil and water samples were analyzed for pH, total phosphorous, orthophosphate, and Mehlich III phosphorous throughout 2012. It has been hypothesized that the efficiency of HUAP pads would be reduced over time. Mehlich III phosphorus ranged from 22.82-200 mg/kg at site I, and 48.17 – 1179.6 mg/kg at site II, which were greater than the optimal soil concentrations. However, in the run-off, orthophosphate and total phosphorous levels were less than 0.05mg/L, and below U.S. EPA limits. This confirms that the HUAP pads, along with vegetative buffer strips, restricted the seepage of phosphorous into the run off. The results suggest minimal loss of nutrients from poultry house to water bodies.

description: We construct a tangential map from a locally symmetric space of noncompact type to its dual compact type twin. By comparing the induced map in cohomology to a map defined by Matsushima, we conclude that in the equal rank case the map has a nonzero degree.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: During the last 2 decades the auction has become increasingly important as a marketing agency for livestock. Livestock auctions in the United States have increased in number about threefold since 1935. Along with this growth in numbers, there has been a significant expansion in the volume of livestock marketed at auctions. The purpose of this study was to examine the role of the auction in the marketing of livestock in the United States and to provide information which may serve as a benchmark for future analyses of the economic importance and effectiveness of livestock auctions. Specifically the objectives were as follows: (1) To trace the development of livestock auction markets in the United States, (2) to describe the several characteristics of auctions in terms of ownership, facilities, and methods of operation, (3) to examine the present status of auctions with respect to volume handled, area served by them, and the relative importance of the different types of patrons, and (4) to determine the charges assessed for the services provided at auctions.

description: Legume-intensified maize systems have been identified as a potential ―one stop‖ solution to the problems of food insecurity and declining soil fertility in Malawi. Previous research to understand legume adoption/cultivation in Malawi has failed to examine how gender relations may influence incentives to adopt and potential food security gains at the farm level, or how gender may impact participation, performance, and benefits at later value chain stages. Using a combination of key informant interviews, focus groups, and a value chain approach, we identify gender based constraints and opportunities along the pigeon pea value chain, their implications for legume adoption/expansion, for income gains, and for the food security status of legume producing/selling households. We find that due to their culturally prescribed role as heads of households, men are mostly responsible for legume cultivation decisions at the farm level and across all regions. Cultural restrictions on women‘s mobility and gender disparities in transportation assets exclude women from participating in markets, thereby giving men more access to pigeon pea sales revenue. Men‘s predominant role in pigeon pea marketing and their power to make major decisions on the allocation of crop revenue creates a disincentive among women to expand the legume at the farm level, especially since women make major labor contributions towards the cultivation and post-harvest handling of the legume. Our results indicate that income from pigeon pea sales may not always translate to improvements in household food security, especially when intra-household gender differences in market participation, consumption needs and preferences are considered. We find that post-farm level, women on the pigeon pea value chain still face mobility restrictions, unequal gender division of labor in reproductive and household chores, limited access to transportation assets, limited credit and non-farm employment opportunities which hinder the performance and benefits from participation at higher nodes of the pigeon pea value chain. Development efforts targeting increases in household food security through the promotion of pigeon pea must take our findings into consideration to improve intervention outcomes.

Three-Dimensional Extended Object Tracking and Shape Learning Using Gaussian Processes

description: In this study, we investigate the problem of tracking objects with unknown shapes using three-dimensional (3D) point cloud data. We propose a Gaussian process-based model to jointly estimate object kinematics, including position, orientation and velocities, together with the shape of the object for online and offline applications. We describe the unknown shape by a radial function in 3D, and induce a correlation structure via a Gaussian process. Furthermore, we propose an efficient algorithm to reduce the computational complexity of working with 3D data. This is accomplished by casting the tracking problem into projection planes which are attached to the object's local frame. The resulting algorithms can process 3D point cloud data and accomplish tracking of a dynamic object. Furthermore, they provide analytical expressions for the representation of the object shape in 3D, together with confidence intervals. The confidence intervals, which quantify the uncertainty in the shape estimate, can later be used for solving the gating and association problems inherent in object tracking. The performance of the methods is demonstrated both on simulated and real data. The results are compared with an existing random matrix model, which is commonly used for extended object tracking in the literature.

description: Food insecurity remains a significant problem in India, especially among women and children. The purpose of this paper is to measure food security and describe associated factors in rural Rajasthan, India. Pregnant women and women with young children belonging to self-help groups were surveyed for this study. Factors associated with food insecurity for both women and children included increased poverty, low dietary diversity, belonging to a tribe, and failing to save money to cover food expenses. For women, using more coping strategies and having a husband who made decisions about how money the woman earned was used were associated with food insecurity, while not having received food from an Integrated Child Development Service center was associated with food insecurity in children. These findings suggest that actions for improving food security may include facilitating saving for food needs, improving decision-making power among women, and increasing ties to organizations that cater to child development needs.

description: In order to encourage gender equality in delivery of varietal knowledge to male and female farmers in Ada‟a and Ensaro districts of Ethiopia, chickpea breeders set a policy that each male farmer would bring along his wife to participatory varietal selection sessions. Women farmers did not attend planned trainings as expected. Using small-n approach, the „reasons‟ women in these communities did not take up the training opportunities were explored. Vignettes designed to depict the lives of a typical Ethiopian couple were used for exploring negotiations between husband and wife on „participation‟ decisions. Short radius of movement, labour burden, sex of extension agents, intimacy and harmony in the home emerge as key factors considered by women. We propose dialogue between men, women, the old and the young to initiate transformation of gender relations to cede „space for women‟, to build capacities to support chickpea production, and agriculture in Ethiopia.

Hypernova Nucleosynthesis and Galactic Chemical Evolution

description: We study nucleosynthesis in 'hypernovae', i.e., supernovae with very large explosion energies ($ \gsim 10^{52} $ ergs) for both spherical and aspherical explosions. The hypernova yields compared to those of ordinary core-collapse supernovae show the following characteristics: 1) Complete Si-burning takes place in more extended region, so that the mass ratio between the complete and incomplete Si burning regions is generally larger in hypernovae than normal supernovae. As a result, higher energy explosions tend to produce larger [(Zn, Co)/Fe], small [(Mn, Cr)/Fe], and larger [Fe/O], which could explain the trend observed in very metal-poor stars. 2) Si-burning takes place in lower density regions, so that the effects of $α$-rich freezeout is enhanced. Thus $^{44}$Ca, $^{48}$Ti, and $^{64}$Zn are produced more abundantly than in normal supernovae. The large [(Ti, Zn)/Fe] ratios observed in very metal poor stars strongly suggest a significant contribution of hypernovae. 3) Oxygen burning also takes place in more extended regions for the larger explosion energy. Then a larger amount of Si, S, Ar, and Ca ("Si") are synthesized, which makes the "Si"/O ratio larger. The abundance pattern of the starburst galaxy M82 may be attributed to hypernova explosions. Asphericity in the explosions strengthens the nucleosynthesis properties of hypernovae except for "Si"/O. We thus suggest that hypernovae make important contribution to the early Galactic (and cosmic) chemical evolution.

description: A recent concern in the valuation literature is the uncertainty respondents feel when posed with willingness-to-pay questions for environmental amenities in hypothetical market scenarios. Using a multiple-bounded discrete-choice format, the results indicate that respondents become less ambivalent when allowed considerable time to think about the valuation task before a response is elicited. In particular they tend to reduce the reported willingness to pay associated with low certainty of paying, hence resulting in more conservative welfare estimates. Implications for the application of environmental valuation techniques are discussed.
Dark Energy in a Hyperbolic Universe

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Dark energy models due to a slowly evolving scalar (quintessence) field $ϕ$ are studied for various potentials $V(ϕ)$ in a universe with negative curvature. The potentials differ in whether they possess a minimum at $ϕ=0$ or are monotonically declining, i.e. have a minimum at infinity. The angular power spectrum $C_l$ of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) as well as the magnitude-redshift relation $m_B(z)$ of the type Ia supernovae are compared with the quintessence models. It is demonstrated that some of the models with $Ω_tot \simeq 0.85...0.9$ are in agreement with the observations, i.e. possess acoustic peaks in the angular power spectrum of the CMB anisotropy as observed experimentally, and yield a magnitude-redshift relation in agreement with the data. Furthermore, it is found that the power spectrum $P(k)$ of the large-scale structure (LSS) agrees with the observations too.
