description: This project reported here had the objective of answering four specific questions:
• Do predictive models that have been created for military installations work?
• Can they be refined to work better?
• Are they sufficiently accurate so that land managers and State Historic Preservation 
 officers can use them in evaluating management decisions about installation resources?
• Can a predictive model be integrated into a more dynamic operational model that would be useful across the DoD to increase cost efficiency of cultural resource management at large installations?

The proposal defined a three-step process for answering these questions. The first step was to determine the pervasiveness of predictive modeling in the military through a questionnaire sent to installations representing all branches of the service. Although not intended to be a complete canvassing of the military use of predictive models, the objective of the questionnaire was to achieve a reasonable sample from which inferences could be drawn. The second step was to choose models from four of the responding installations for an in-depth evaluation of their technical quality, accuracy, and general utility as a management tool. This evaluation was to include suggestions about ways to improve the utility of each model. The proposed third step was take the results of the evaluation and design a follow-up study that could directly contribute to more effective use of predictive modeling by military installations. 

Below we describe the questionnaire and the selection process. The next section of this report provides an evaluation of each of the four selected predictive models. In the final section of the report, we suggest what we would propose as a useful follow-up study.

description: We report parallaxes and proper motions from the Hawaii Infrared Parallax Program for eight nearby M dwarf stars with transiting exoplanets discovered by Kepler. We combine our directly measured distances with mass-luminosity and radius-luminosity relationships to significantly improve constraints on the host stars' properties. Our astrometry enables the identification of wide stellar companions to the planet hosts. Within our limited sample, all the multi-transiting planet hosts (three of three) appear to be single stars, while nearly all (four of five) of the systems with a single detected planet have wide stellar companions. By applying strict priors on average stellar density from our updated radius and mass in our transit fitting analysis, we measure the eccentricity probability distributions for each transiting planet. Planets in single-star systems tend to have smaller eccentricities than those in binaries, although this difference is not significant in our small sample. In the case of Kepler-42bcd, where the eccentricities are known to be $\simeq$0, we demonstrate that such systems can serve as powerful tests of M dwarf evolutionary models by working in $L_*-ρ_*$ space. The transit-fit density for Kepler-42bcd is inconsistent with model predictions at 2.1$σ$ (22%), but matches more empirical estimates at 0.2$σ$ (2%), consistent with earlier results showing model radii of M dwarfs are under-inflated. Gaia will provide high precision parallaxes for the entire Kepler M dwarf sample, and TESS will identify more planets transiting nearby, late-type stars, enabling significant improvements in our understanding of the eccentricity distribution of small planets and the parameters of late-type dwarfs.

description: This workshop focused on more effective use of predictive modeling on military installations. The workshop participants produced a broad set of suggestions about ways that archaeological predictive modeling could be improved as a tool for cultural resource management on military installations and be more effectively integrated into installation management, stewardship, and compliance practices.

In this pilot project we have worked with Eglin Air Force Base (AFB) in Florida and Fort Drum in New York to identify additional applications of their existing locational predictive models for planning and historic preservation compliance, assisted them in beginning a dialog with their stakeholders/consulting parties about these applications, and developed concept drafts for programmatic agreements (PAs) to implement these applications.

We have also worked with information from the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR), administered by Hill AFB, to evaluate the feasibility of developing “significance models.” As proposed here, a significance model is a set of algorithms or rules for sorting archaeological sites within a database into provisional management categories based on their potential to yield particular types of information, their traditional cultural values, and other important characteristics as defined by an installation. The proposed significance models will serve as a tool that shifts archaeological predictive modeling efforts away from the current exclusive focus on site location, and eliminate case-by-case evaluations of site significance. The models provide a more programmatic approach to evaluating site significance and establish a more effective framework for installation resource management decision-making.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.An ecosystem-based fisheries management plan for the North Sea was developed using input from fishers and other stakeholders. Stakeholders were interviewed at the start of the process to determine what they wanted out of the North Sea ecosystem and which management tools they preferred. Scientists and modellers then investigated the level and types of management required to achieve these ecosystem states. These results were presented back to stakeholders for comments and feedback before the North Sea fisheries ecosystem plan was finalised. The management tools preferred by fishers were technical measures, effort control and protected areas. Quotas were thought to encourage discarding which they considered a serious threat to the health of the ecosystem. This presentation will provide information on fishers’ perceptions of these management tools and how they thought these could be best implemented.

description: Femtosecond time-resolved X-ray diffraction is used to study a photo-induced phase transition between two charge density wave (CDW) states in 1T-TaS$_2$, namely the nearly commensurate (NC) and the incommensurate (I) CDW states. Structural modulations associated with the NC-CDW order are found to disappear within 400 fs. The photo-induced I-CDW phase then develops through a nucleation/growth process which ends 100 ps after laser excitation. We demonstrate that the newly formed I-CDW phase is fragmented into several nanometric domains that are growing through a coarsening process. The coarsening dynamics is found to follow the universal Lifshitz-Allen-Cahn growth law, which describes the ordering kinetics in systems exhibiting a non-conservative order parameter.

description: Scientific workflows facilitate the automation of data analysis tasks by integrating various software and tools executed in a particular order. To enable transparency and reusability in workflows, it is essential to implement the FAIR principles. Here, we describe our experiences implementing the FAIR principles for metabolomics workflows using the Metabolome Annotation Workflow (MAW) as a case study. MAW is specified using the Common Workflow Language (CWL), allowing for the subsequent execution of the workflow on different workflow engines. MAW is registered using a CWL description on WorkflowHub. During the submission process on WorkflowHub, a CWL description is used for packaging MAW using the Workflow RO-Crate profile, which includes metadata in Bioschemas. Researchers can use this narrative discussion as a guideline to commence using FAIR practices for their bioinformatics or cheminformatics workflows while incorporating necessary amendments specific to their research area.

description: We analyse the recent hints of Lepton Flavor Universality violations in semi-leptonic $B$ decays within a general EFT based on a $U(2)^n$ flavor symmetry acting on the light generations of SM fermions. We analyse in particular the consistency of these anomalies with the tight constraints on various low-energy observables in $B$ and $τ$ physics. We show that, with a moderate fine-tuning, a consistent picture for all low-energy observables can be obtained under the additional dynamical assumption that the NP sector is coupled preferentially to third generation SM fermions. We discuss how this dynamical assumption can be implemented in general terms within the EFT, and we identify a series of observables in $τ$ decays which could provide further evidences of this NP framework.

Sum rules for leading vector form factors in hyperon semileptonic decays

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: By considering that the weak currents and the electromagnetic current are members of the same SU(3) octet, two sum rules involving leading vector form factors in hyperon semileptonic decays are derived in the limit of exact flavor SU(3) symmetry. Deviations from this limit arise from second-order SU(3) symmetry-breaking effects, according to the Ademollo-Gatto theorem. The 1/N_c expansion of QCD is used to evaluate such effects. One sum rule vanishes identically even in the presence of symmetry breaking and the other one obtains contributions mainly from the 10+\overline{10} representation. Results obtained in (heavy) baryon chiral perturbation theory are used to test the validity of these sum rules. To order O(p^2) in the chiral expansion, results are encouraging.

The isoperimetric problem
Creators: name: Forte, Paul
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: The topic that I choose to study for this thesis was the isoperimetric problem which seeks to determine the plane figure of maximum area for a given perimeter. This is a problem in mathematics with a rich history. Although the solution, the circle, is already well known, proving the truth of this is rather difficult. My main reference source in completing this thesis was the book Fourier Analysis by T. W. Körner. I also included information from other textbooks and academic papers. Where I found the author's explanations vague or insufficiently mathematically rigorous, I included my own original work. The challenging aspect of this topic was proving the circle is the solution without first assuming that a solution exists. If one assumes that a solution to the isoperimetric problem must exist, then it can be arrived at with simple high school level geometric methods. However, as demonstrated in this thesis, the existence of a solution to the isoperimetric problem is not trivial.The mathematically rigorous solutions that I included in this thesis utilized methods of calculus as well as Fourier analysis. The concepts that I incorporated from Fourier analysis; I had not studied prior to beginning my graduate coursework.

Pressures, impacts, conservation, and management

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.The last two to three decades have seen serious declines in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) stocks throughout their range. In response, the North Atlantic Salmon Conservation Organization (NASCO) and its Parties have agreed to apply a Precautionary Approach to the conservation, management and exploitation of salmon. They have also proposed that Stock Rebuilding Programmes (SRPs) should be developed for all river stocks that are below their conservation limits. NASCO has therefore developed guidance on the process for establishing an SRP for a salmon stock and what such a plan might contain. The nature and extent of the programme will depend upon the status of the stock and the pressures that it is facing. While the short-term response to a stock failing to exceed its conservation limit may be to reduce or eliminate exploitation, salmon stocks frequently face a range of other pressures in both the freshwater and marine environments. SRPs will therefore be expected to include an array of measures to both evaluate and address the causes of the stock decline. In some situations, there may be a need for comprehensive programmes of research and management, which may be undertaken by, or have social and economic impacts upon, a number of user groups. While progress is being made with the development and implementation of such plans, there remains a need to ensure that a more holistic approach is taken to planning and implementing action which might be more consistent with current moves towards an Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management.

description: In order to obtain high precision CCD positions of Himalia, the sixth Jovian satellite, a total of 598 CCD observations have been obtained during the years 2015-2016. The observations were made by using the 2.4 m and 1 m telescopes administered by Yunnan Observatories over 27 nights. Several factors which would influence the positional precision of Himalia were analyzed, including the reference star catalogue used, the geometric distortion and the phase effect. By taking advantage of its unprecedented positional precision, the recently released catalogue Gaia DR1 was chosen to match reference stars in the CCD frames of both Himalia and open clusters which were observed for deriving the geometric distortion. The latest version of SOFA library was used to calculate the positions of reference stars. The theoretical positions of Himalia were retrieved from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory Horizons System which includes the satellite ephemeris JUP300, while the positions of Jupiter were based on the planetary ephemeris DE431. Our results showed that the means of observed minus computed (O-C) residuals are 0.071 and -0.001 arcsec in right ascension and declination, respectively. Their standard deviations are estimated at about 0.03 arcsec in each direction.

description: Background: Multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is common in intensive care units (ICUs) and is associated with high mortality. Although there have been multiple investigations into a multitude of organ dysfunctions, little is known about the role of liver dysfunction. In addition, clinical and laboratory findings of liver dysfunction may occur with a significant delay. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate whether a liver function test, based on indocyanine green (ICG)-clearance, contains prognostic information for patients in the early phase of MODS. Methods: The data of this analysis were based on the MODIFY study, which included 70 critically ill patients of a tertiary medical ICU in the early phase of MODS (≤24 h after diagnosis by an APACHE II score ≥ 20 and a sinus rhythm ≥ 90 beats per minute, with the following subgroups: cardiogenic (cMODS) and septic MODS (sMODS)) over a period of 18 months. ICG clearance was characterized by plasma disappearance rate = PDR (%/min); it was measured non-invasively by using the LiMON system (PULSION Medical Systems, Feldkirchen, Germany). The PDR was determined on the day of study inclusion (baseline) and after 96 h. The primary endpoint of this analysis was 28-day mortality. Results: ICG clearance was measured in 44 patients of the MODIFY trial cohort, of which 9 patients had cMODS (20%) and 35 patients had sMODS (80%). Mean age: 59.7 ± 16.5 years; 31 patients were men; mean APACHE II score: 33.6 ± 6.3; 28-day mortality was 47.7%. Liver function was reduced in the total cohort as measured by a PDR of 13.4 ± 6.3%/min At baseline, there were no relevant differences between survivors and non-survivors regarding ICG clearance (PDR: 14.6 ± 6.1%/min vs. 12.1 ± 6.5%/min; p = 0.21). However, survivors showed better liver function than non-survivors after 96 h (PDR: 21.9 ± 6.3%/min vs. 9.2 ± 6.3%/min, p < 0.05). Consistent with these findings, survivors but not non-survivors show a significant improvement in the PDR (7.3 ± 6.3%/min vs. −2.9 ± 2.6%/min; p < 0.01) within 96 h. In accordance, receiver-operating characteristic curves (ROCs) at 96 h but not at baseline show a link between the PDR and 28-day mortality (PDR at 96 h: AUC: 0.87, 95% CI: 0.76–0.98; p < 0.01. Conclusions: In our study, we found that ICG clearance at baseline did not provide prognostic information in patients in the early stages of MODS despite being reduced in the total cohort. However, improvement of ICG clearance 96 h after ICU admission is associated with reduced 28-day mortality.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Restoration projects of potential Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) rivers in the Baltic Sea have known relatively limited success. In order to identify the possible factors currently limiting the re-establishment of salmon populations in potential salmon rivers, we compare a wild salmon river with potential salmon rivers in terms of the biological characteristics of the salmon population, the fishing pressure on the population and the river s socio-economic and biological environment. The differences in biological and socio-economical circumstances between rivers can be examined through separate biological, economical and socio-economic studies. The results from the different disciplines can later be linked together within one single probabilistic or Bayesian network model. The probabilistic network has the advantage that the different conditional relationships can be obtained through different methodologies. In the case of Baltic salmon, the biological estimates within the Bayesian network are obtained through a probabilistic mark-recapture model of tagging data, the economic dependencies are obtained through bio-economic models and contingent valuation, while the social dependencies come from questionnaires and in-depth interviews with key people. Network modelling allows us to examine not only what has happened in the past but through the expression of causal relationships within the model structure, it also allows us to examine what would happen to the salmon populations if certain biological, economical and social conditions in potential salmon rivers would be different. It is therefore possible to examine the effect of different management actions on the fishing behaviour of the fishermen in the different rivers and to examine for each river which combination of management actions has the highest probability of successfully restoring the salmon stocks.

description: The SRI Foundation and Statistical Research, Inc., under a Legacy Resource Management Program grant, convened a workshop of national experts to examine the use of predictive modeling by military installations. The workshop was held in Santa Fe, New Mexico on November 15-16, 2004. Workshop attendees included participants with a variety of expertise in modeling, managing cultural resources on military installations, and compliance with environmental and historic preservation laws. Workshop participants examined key issues associated with model development and use, discussed successful approaches to improving modeling efforts nationwide, and created some initial guidance for installations planning to use modeling for the first time or hoping to improve or revitalize their use of modeling. Spatial modeling for Department of Defense (DoD) agencies has traditionally focused on predicting site locations; however, modeling experts and managers attending the workshop agreed that models must now address more pressing issues of evaluating site significance and historic property treatment. In addition, predictive modeling should no longer be a standalone program within DoD with no link to the mission and stewardship requirements of installations. Modeling needs to be incorporated into the fabric of compliance with historic preservation laws, procedures, and regulations.

description: Previous research suggests that individuals with insecure attachment orientations experience deficits in meaning in life. The current research investigates whether an individual’s relationship goal orientation can help to explain the relation between attachment insecurity and meaning in life. I hypothesized three indirect pathways. The first two pathways link attachment-related anxiety to lower presence of meaning, but higher search for meaning via greater deficit reduction goals. The third pathway links attachment-related avoidance to lower presence of meaning via reduced growth-oriented goals. The pathways were tested non-experimentally (Studies 1 and 2) by measuring trait attachment orientations, two types of social goals (growth-oriented and deficit-reduction), and two dimensions of meaning in life (presence of meaning and search for meaning), and experimentally (Study 2) by manipulating attachment and measuring the two types of social goals, and the two dimensions of meaning in life. There was consistent non-experimental support that attachment-related anxiety is associated with greater search for meaning indirectly via more commitment to deficit reduction goals. Additionally, there was consistent non-experimental support that attachment-related avoidance is associated with lower presence of meaning via less commitment to growth-oriented social goals. However, there was not strong support for the pathway linking attachment-related anxiety to presence of meaning via deficit reduction goals. Moreover, there was no experimental support for the three hypothesized pathways. Thus, this research can only provide preliminary evidence that social goals may explain the link between insecure attachment and deficits in meaning in life.

description: We use the spinor helicity formalism to calculate the cross section for production of three partons of a given polarization in Deep Inelastic Scattering (DIS) off proton and nucleus targets at small Bjorken x. The target proton or nucleus is treated as a classical color field (shock wave) from which the produced partons scatter multiple times. We reported our result for the final expression for the production cross section and studied the azimuthal angular correlations of the produced partons in [1]. Here we provide the full details of the calculation of the production cross section using the spinor helicity methods.

description: Geodiversity has shaped and structured the Earth's surface at all spatio-temporal scales, not only through long-term processes but also through medium- and short-term processes. Geodiversity is, therefore, a key control and regulating variable in the overall development of landscapes and biodiversity. However, climate change and land use intensity are leading to major changes and disturbances in bio- and geodiversity. For sustainable ecosystem management, temporal, economically viable and standardized monitoring is needed to monitor and model the effects and changes in vegetation- and geodiversity. RS approaches have been used for this purpose for decades. However, to understand in detail how RS approaches capture vegetation- and geodiversity, the aim of this paper is to describe how five features of vegetation- and geodiversity are captured using RS technologies, namely: (i) trait diversity, (ii) phylogenetic/genese diversity, (iii) structural diversity, (iv) taxonomic diversity and (v) functional diversity. Trait diversity is essential for establishing the other four. Traits provide a crucial interface between in situ, close-range, aerial and space-based RS monitoring approaches. The trait approach allows complex data of different types and formats to be linked using the latest semantic data integration techniques, which will enable ecosystem integrity monitoring and modelling in the future.
Single-ion properties of the $S_{eff}$ = 1/2 XY antiferromagnetic pyrochlores, Na$A^{\prime}$Co$_2$F$_7$ ($A^{\prime} = $ Ca$^{2+}$, Sr$^{2+}$)

description: The antiferromagnetic pyrochlore material NaCaCo$_2$F$_7$ is a thermal spin liquid over a broad temperature range (~ 140 K down to $T_F = 2.4 $K), in which magnetic correlations between Co$^{2+}$ dipole moments explore a continuous manifold of antiferromagnetic XY states. The thermal spin liquid is interrupted by spin freezing at a temperature that is ~ 2 % of the mean field interaction strength, leading to short range static XY clusters with distinctive relaxation dynamics. Here we report the low energy inelastic neutron scattering response from the related compound NaSrCo$_2$F$_7$, confirming that it hosts the same static and dynamic spin correlations as NaCaCo$_2$F$_7$. We then present the single-ion levels of Co$^{2+}$ in these materials as measured by inelastic neutron scattering. An intermediate spin orbit coupling model applied to an ensemble of trigonally distorted octahedral crystal fields accounts for the observed transitions. The single-ion ground state of Co$^{2+}$ is a Kramers doublet with a strongly XY-like $g$-tensor ($g_{xy}/g_{z}$ ~ 3). The local disorder inherent from the mixed pyrochlore $A$ sites (Na$^{+}$/Ca$^{2+}$ and Na$^{+}$/Sr$^{2+}$) is evident in these measurements as exaggerated broadening of some of the levels. A simple model that reproduces the salient features of the single-ion spectrum produces approximately 8.4 % and 4.1 % variation in the $z$ and $xy$ components of the $g$-tensor, respectively. This study confirms that an $S_{eff} =1/2$ model with XY antiferromagnetic exchange and weak exchange disorder serves as a basic starting point in understanding the low temperature magnetic behavior of these strongly frustrated magnets.

description: Nearly 40% of adults in the U.S. experience elevated weight and are at risk for a number of health consequences. One of the factors associated with weight in adulthood is relationship status. Research is needed to determine the extent to which romantic partners can accurately assess each other’s weight status. In this study, we examined same-sex and heterosexual romantic partners’ (N = 500, Mage = 29.3) perceptions of their own and their partners’ weight at the beginning of their relationship and at the time of data collection (on average, 4.8 years later). Height and weight were measured by researchers and used to calculate BMI and participants completed assessments of self-esteem, relationship quality, and other demographic factors. Perceived change in participants’ weight status was associated with their current BMI and the length of their relationship. Perceived changes in partners’ weight status was associated with their partners’ BMI, but also participants’ own BMIs and relationship quality. Gender and sexuality moderated the relationship between relationship length and participants’ perceptions of their partners’ weight change.

description: Species respond differently to landscape structures and environmental changes. In nature conservation, however, responses of a few indicator groups are often generalised to the ecosystem level. In this study, we analyse how birds and butterflies respond to identical landscape structures and environmental gradients across a habitat mosaic in southern Kenya. The study area represents natural coastal forest (forest interior and forest edge) as well as different agro-environments (such as orchards and pastures), which partly may also be suitable surrogate habitats for forest species. We assessed birds and butterflies during the same time along identical line transects, covering the dry and the rainy season. The obtained results indicate that both species groups depict habitat types in some aspects similarly but in others in somewhat different ways. Thus, strongest differences in community similarity were visible between forest interior and the open landscape like pastures for both taxa. The forest community strongly overlapped with orchards for birds but less so for butterflies. Thus, orchards in close geographic proximity to natural forests might be a possible surrogate habitat for certain forest bird species, but less so for more sedentary forest butterfly species. The temporal variation in species richness, abundances, and community structures was much stronger for butterflies compared to birds. Thus, seasonality in tropical ecosystems has to be considered especially when interpreting community structures of butterflies, but much less so in birds. In general, birds and butterflies proved to be suitable indicator groups to evaluate ecologically landscape structures in East Africa, with birds more representing the landscape level and butterflies more the fine-grained habitat scale.
