Abstract

The recent increase in the frequency and severity of drought-induced tree mortality in me-sic European forests at low elevation poses considerable challenges to forest management and requires an understanding of its causes. Here, we propose a novel parsimonious framework for integrating the factors underlying drought-induced tree mortality in a dy-namic vegetation model. We employed a three-step approach.First, we evaluated multiple drought indices for capturing tree growth responses to extreme drought. We found that for mesic forests it is essential to include soil moisture dynamics (e.g., Palmer Drought Severity Index, ForClim drought index), but this is not the case in often-used indices such as SPI or SPEI. We found that the ForClim drought index captures growth responses to drought intensity during summer, the growing period, and annually quite well.Second, we assessed the capability of the mono-layer soil moisture model of ForClim to simulate soil moisture dynamics, comparing it to the mechanistic soil-vegetation-atmosphere model LWFBrook90. The ForClim soil moisture model was found to adequate-ly simulate soil moisture dynamics, particularly in extreme drought years.Third, drawing on our findings regarding drought-growth relationships and soil mois-ture dynamics, we used Manion’s Decline Disease Theory to develop a new mortality mod-el that combines predisposing and inciting factors. Its integration in the ForClim forest gap model captured drought-related mortality in six mesic beech-dominated stands in 2018-2020, and over multiple years in a xeric Scots pine-dominated stand in Switzerland. Along a wide climatic gradient in central Europe, the new model furthermore provided a good quantification of Potential Natural Vegetation.The novel framework to capture drought-related tree mortality is simple yet produces accurate results. We conclude that the underlying hypothesis regarding the factors leading to drought-induced tree mortality is promising but requires further tests for generality.

description: One hundred sixty two female university students were divided into two groups according to their level of traditionality as measured by the Attitude Toward Women Scale. They were shown a photograph of a moderate to high attractive male along with a short description identifying the male as having either a high-career/low-family orientation, or a low-career/high-family orientation, and asked to report their degree of preference for this target. Analysis found significant main effects for traditionality of the subjects, career/family orientation of the targets, and an interaction of traditionality of the subjects and attractiveness of the targets. Further analysis indicated the presence of a fourth factor involving class or status of the target. More traditional women tended to rate more attractive targets more positively, regardless of target orientation. Less traditional women indicated clear preferences according to target orientation, without regard to target attractiveness.

Abstract

The increase in the frequency and severity of drought-induced mortality in low-elevation European forests presents a significant challenge to forest management and science. Specifically, dynamic models have often not captured these mortality events accurately. We propose a novel framework to integrate the mechanisms and processes underpinning mortality during the drought years of 2018-2020, and we test it in six beech-dominated stands in Switzerland and along a European climatic gradient using a three-step approach.

First, we evaluated the suitability of various drought indices for capturing tree growth responses to extreme drought, highlighting the importance of including soil water content. Second, we assessed the ability of a simplified bucket approach to simulate soil water dynamics, comparing it to the detailed and highly mechanistic model LWFBrook90.

Based on Manion’s Decline Disease Theory, we developed a mortality sub-model that combines predisposing and inciting factors in the ForClim model. Moreover, we enhanced the model's responsiveness to environmental extremes, such as temperature fluctuations and soil water dynamics.

We used the new approach for simulating drought-induced mortality events following the 2018 drought in six beech-dominated forests, demonstrating its local accuracy. We also tested it in a Scots pine-dominated site where mortality events linked to droughts have been observed over the last decade. Along a climatic gradient in Central Europe, the model featured convincing quantifications of Potential Natural Vegetation. Specifically, the frequency of mortality events was found to increase in drier regions. The novel approach provides a simple yet accurate framework for capturing species responses to extreme drought events and helps reproduce drought-induced tree mortality.

Abstract

The increase in the frequency and severity of drought-induced tree mortality in many Eu-ropean low-elevation forests poses considerable challenges to forest management and re-quires an understanding of its causes. We propose a novel framework for integrating the factors underlying drought-induced tree mortality in a dynamic vegetation model.We evaluate whether this framework accurately reproduces drought-related mortality in six mesic beech-dominated stands in 2018-2020, and over multiple years in a xeric Scots pine-dominated stand in Switzerland. Additionally, we investigate its behavior along a large climatic gradient in central Europe. We employ a three-step approach.First, we evaluate multiple drought indices for capturing tree growth responses to ex-treme drought. We find that in contrast to widespread indices such as SPI and SPEI, the ForClim drought index captures growth responses to drought intensity during summer, the growing period, and annually.Second, we assess in detail the capability of the ForClim soil moisture model to sim-ulate soil water dynamics, comparing it to the mechanistic soil-vegetation-atmosphere model LWFBrook90. The ForClim soil moisture model adequately simulates soil water dynamics, particularly in extreme drought years.Third, based on Manion’s Decline Disease Theory, we develop a novel mortality submodel that combines predisposing and inciting factors. Its integration in ForClim cap-tures drought-induced mortality events in the mesic beech forests as well as the multi-year mortality at the xeric Scots pine-dominated stand. Along a climatic gradient in central Eu-rope, the model provides good quantifications of Potential Natural Vegetation.The novel framework to capture drought-related tree mortality is simple yet produces accurate results. The underlying hypothesis regarding the factors leading to drought-induced tree mortality is promising but requires further tests for its generality.
Some Fast and Slow-Moving Areas in India. The Rich and the Poor

description: The main thesis of this article refers to the widening gap between what actually happens in Indian villages and a whole array of books and reports based on doubtful sources of information. As, M. N. Srinivas, the well-known Indian anthropologist, writes: "The idea that economists should themselves undertake field work does not seem to occur to them". In other words, too many scholars and experts speak about the poor instead of speaking with the poor. This paper gives an account of socio-economic and technical changes in the Ganges Basin. The areas were first surveyed in 1963/64 and 1967, then again in 1978/79. The author takes one fast-moving area and two slow-moving ones. He particularly stresses the impact of growth on small farmers and landless labourers whose lot improves along with strong national economic growth.

description: This working paper introduces X^∞ (X to Infinity) as a mathematically auditable, responsibility-centric alternative to traditional IT service management (ITSM) frameworks such as ITIL 4. Grounded in Cap logic and systemic feedback mechanisms, X^∞ replaces static roles and opaque processes with dynamic authority units (Cap), recursive delegation, and intelligent need expression via CapPetitions. The model enables verifiable, zero-trust operations through constructs like CapNFT, CapGate, CapLedger, and ∆Cap, while fostering emergent alignment across complex infrastructures.

The paper offers a full mapping of all 34 ITIL 4 practices—spanning general, service, and technical management—and demonstrates how each is transformed under the X^∞ paradigm. It formalizes a prioritization logic (P = N·w_E) that amplifies structurally relevant needs, particularly from underrepresented actors, and implements this in a prototype system capable of automatic delegation, feedback propagation, and incident attribution.

A detailed case study highlights the operational superiority of X^∞ compared to classical frameworks, achieving faster incident resolution and proactive systemic improvement. This publication invites collaboration towards a silent revolution in IT governance and post-organizational infrastructure design.

description: Palmaris longus is classified as a phylogenetically retrogressive muscle having a short belly with a long tendon. It varies in the incidence of its absence, form, attachment, duplication and its ability of having accessory slips and substitute structures. The muscle is of interest to hand surgeons because a number of cases have been reported with complaints of a volar distal forearm swelling and median nerve compression symptoms. Therefore, the present study was performed with the purpose to determine the morphology and the variations of PL in North Indian population. Material for the present study consisted of 62 limbs(20 Male and 11 Female) which were made available through a series of dissections performed for first year medical students at SGRDIMSAR, Amritsar, Punjab. The morphology and variations of PL and its relation with neighbouring structures were noted. The data thus collected was stored and compared to other studies. Of 62 limbs dissected 55(88.70%) showed normal morphology of palmaris longus muscle as per the standard textbook. 5 limbs(8.06%) showed complete agenesis. 1(1.61%) limb exhibited a fleshy fusiform PLM. A Reversed palmaris longus muscle(RPLM) along with accessory PL(1.61%) was observed in the same limb. Variations of the PL tendon may even confuse an experienced surgeon. Thus, it is important for the reconstructive surgeons or radiologists to be aware of the possibility of variations and its impact on the structures present at the wrist area especially one that might contribute to median or ulnar nerve compression.

description: Background: Perforator flaps are an excellent reconstructive option for functional upper limb reconstruction. Aim of the work: This study aimed to identify the main anatomical sites, number and length of the main perforators of the upper limb for better surgical reconstruction interventions. Material and methods: The material of this work included twelve fresh stillbirths. Red-colored latex was injected into the abdominal aorta. Dissection was done at the sub-fascial level of the upper limb. Results: Results showed that the most common sites of brachial artery perforators were located at a mean distance of 1.73 ±0.52 cm measured from the tip of the coracoid process. More than one third of ulnar perforators (35%) were located within 40 mm proximal to the pisiform. More than half of the distal forearm radial artery perforators (68%) were located within 22 mm proximal to the distal wrist crease. About (40%) of the posterior interosseous artery were located within 40 mm proximal to the ulnar head. Dorsal metacarpal artery perforators were found in the mid metacarpal region proximal to junctuate tendinae while the proper digital arteries give rise to multiple cutaneous perforators along their course on the sides of each digit. Conclusion: Detailed anatomy of the main perforators of the upper limb concerning its accurate site measured from fixed specific bonny points, number and length of their pedicles are very essential in the success of the different flap techniques. Recommendations: A wide scale of the stillbirth cases may give more standard values as regard the location of the main perforators of the upper limb. A combined adult cadaveric study could be advised to be compared with the main values with those of the stillbirths.

description: Aim: We aimed to study the effects of prenatal administration of two doses of melamine on foetal ossification centers in rats. Methods: Positively-mated, virgin, adult female Sprague-Dawley rats (n=24) were treated from day 6 to day 20 of gestation with solvent (control), melamine 300 mg/kg/day (group 1) or melamine 450 mg/kg/day (group 2). On day 21, half of the fetuses were examined for bone ossification abnormalities. Results: A total of 109 foetal skeletons were examined. The percentage of incomplete or absent bones in the entire skeleton was significantly less in group 1 and group 2 compared to control. These findings were more prominent in group 2 compared to group 1. Likewise, ossified centers were fewer in the sternum and metacarpal bones in group 1 and group 2 compared to control. No abnormal ossification was observed in metatarsal, skull, pubic or rib bones. Regarding the vertebral centrae, a significant increase in the number of absent or delayed bones was noticed only in group 2 compared to control. Specifically, the abnormalities were observed in the thoracic and sacral centrae. Similarly, group 2 was associated with fewer ossified centers in vertebral arch compared to control. The abnormal ossifications were observed in sacral and coccygeal bones. The only observed abnormality in vertebral ossification in group 1 was in coccygeal arch, compared to control. Conclusions: Prenatal administration of melamine caused dose-dependent retardation in bone ossification, which mainly affected the sternum, metacarpal, vertebral centraee and arch.

description: Axis, the second cervical vertebra forms a pivot on which the atlas rotates carrying the head. Though this region is very small but can cause serious complications due to complex anatomy of the cranio-cervical junction. Odontoid fractures compose 7-20% of all cervical spine fractures. The vertebral artery may also be at risk as it is present on under surface of axis. Thus, thorough understanding of the anatomy of body of axis and its odontoid process(dens) is required in screw placement or other surgical interventions. Therefore, aim of the present study was to measure and present the detailed morphometric parameters of body of axis and its odontoid process. 60 dry axis vertebrae were obtained for anatomic evaluation focused on body and odontoid process. The morphometric measurements included linear measurements focused on length, breadth and height of body and odontoid process. Vertebral body length, superior width, inferior width, anterior height and posterior height were found to be 15.10+1.56mm, 15.48+2.09mm,15.83+2.12 mm, 19.28+2.24 and 16.26+1.73mm. Odontoid process height, diameter, maximum and minimum width were found to be 16.36+1.68 mm, 10.74+1.06 mm, 9.85+1.08 mm and 8.79+1.17 mm respectively. Morphological features of dens included its macroscopic appearance and shape of ventral and dorsal facets. Most common shapes of ventral and dorsal facets were found to be vertical elliptical 83.3 % and horizontal elliptical 76.66% respectively. The knowledge of these parameters is important for the surgeons while operating around axis in spinal surgical procedures like anterior atlanto-axial fixation, anterior odontoid screw fixation or odontoidectomy procedures.

description: Introduction The anatomy of the biliary tract includes a considerable number of variations that may be explained by the hepato-biliary tract embryology. The in-depth knowledge of this anatomy is essential for a good interpretation of conventional radiology imaging, and, especially for a good practice of hepato-biliary surgery. Several imaging techniques allow us to study the biliary tract anatomy. Our purpose is to study of modal anatomy (most frequent) and anatomic variations of biliary tract through interpretation of post-operative cholangiograms. Materials and Methods It is a retrospective monocentric observational study. It concerned every patient who had a hepato-biliary and/or pancreatic surgery in Farhat Hached University Hospital from 2007 till 2016, and who have had at least one post-operative cholangiography. A data form has been filled for every patient. Results Out of a total population of 293 patients, we encountered 17.4% of variations of the upper biliary convergence divided into 7 patterns. Concerning intrahepatic bile ducts, we observed branching variations for segments 4, 5, 6 and 8 in respectively 3.5%, 4.1%, 1.7% and 1.7% of cases. Conclusion Both intra- and extrahepatic biliary anatomy is complex with the existence of many common and uncommon anatomic variations. Intra-operative cholangiography constitutes an accurate tool to detect these anatomic variants and is therefore crucial in the practice of hepato-biliary surgery especially after the advent of a variety of new techniques in this field. However, it also necessitates a more widespread and appropriate knowledge of these anatomic variations.

description: Thorough knowledge from anatomical characteristics of different teeth is a must, to achieve successful root canal, Orthodontic, surgical and other dental treatments on them. This cross- sectional study aimed to study the anatomy and morphology of permanent maxillary canine teeth in Kerman, a province in the southeast Islamic Republic of Iran. One hundred extracted permanent maxillary canines with intact apices were collected from five different dental centers within five different city districts in Kerman. The number of roots, the root curve direction and the length of each tooth was assigned by macroscopic observation and length measurement of each sample. Also, after staining, decalcification and clearing of each selected tooth the existence of lateral canals and their location was carefully evaluated under magnification. The results showed that all maxillary canine teeth had 1 root and one root canal in this study. The average length for this tooth was 27.31mms. The curve direction of the roots, in 32% of the cases was; distally, in 8%; buccally, in 4%; mesially and in 3%; palatally. 53% of the teeth had straight roots and root canals and, 25%, had lateral canals that in all of the cases were located in the apical third of the roots and were never observed in the middle and coronal thirds. As a conclusion, in this population, roots of maxillary canine teeth have straight roots in 53% of the cases, and in 25%, they have lateral canals that are usually located in the apical thirds.

description: Vitrification is one of cryopreservation method for freezing cells without ice formation so that biological materials such as sperm, oocyte, or embryo, can be preserved and later can be used for a specific purpose including wildlife conservation efforts. Unfortunately, high concentration of cryoprotectan in vitrification process can cause osmotic stress and has high toxic levels that may affect embryo quality. The purpose of this research is to analyze the quality of post-vitrification embryos at morula and blastocyst stages based on morphometric variable, and Bax gene expression, futhermore potency of implantation of the post-vitrification embryo were also examined based on H19 and Igf2 gene expression. The results showed embryo viability post-vitrification decreased 5.67% and 6.02% in morula and blastocyst. Development ability from morula to blastocyst post-vitrification was also decreased by 10.15%. Morphometry analysis of morula post-vitrification showed decreased values of zona pellucida tickness (ZPT), zona pellucida tickness variation (ZPTV) and blastomeres area, while perivetellin space (PVS) area was increased compared to fresh morula. Blastocyst post-vitrification had increased values of ZPT, ZPTV, and PVS, while in ICM and the blastocoel were also decreased compared to fresh blastocyst. The result of relative levels mRNA of Igf2, H19, and Bax gene show no significant difference gene expression between fresh blastocyst, blastocyst post-vitrification, and morula post-vitrification group.

description: In the last decades 3D optical devices have gained a primary role in facial anthropometry, where they find several applications from the anatomical research to clinics and surgery. With time the number of articles focusing on 3D surface analysis has raised, as well as validation studies which aim at verifying the reliability of different devices and methods of acquisition in comparison with other methods or direct anthropometry. This review aims at making a point in the field of 3D surface acquisition systems, describing the most used types of available devices and comparing the relevant outcomes in acquiring 3D facial models. Results show that currently stereophotogrammetric devices represent the gold standard, further improved by the diffusion of portable models. Caution should be given to the use of low-cost devices, more and more frequently described by literature, as often they do not meet the basic criteria for being applied to the anatomical study of face.

description: AbstractGinger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is a perennial plant, known primarily for its taste and aroma, as well as its antiemetic properties. However, scientific research has shown a number of other medicinal and health properties of ginger and its compounds, often resulting from its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Among the scientifically proven actions is also the influence on the central nervous system functions, which encourages scientists to seek the possibility of using ginger preparations in the therapy of neurological and psychiatric diseases. Preclinical studies conducted using animal models have shown that ginger has pro-cognitive and anticonvulsant effects. Among the active substances in ginger, phenolic compounds such as gingerols, shogaols, and paradols are of the greatest importance. However, before the results of experimental studies can be used in clinical practice, it is necessary to thoroughly understand the mechanisms of action of the compounds contained in ginger extracts and the safety of their use.Keywords: ginger, Zingiber officinale, epilepsy, seizures, Alzheimer's disease, memory dysfunctions

description: Using etymological methods, the present study has researched four Sinitic and Uralic shared etymologies (etyma). Two of them form a rhyme correspondence. Three of them form an onset correspondence. These regular sound changes validate the genetic connection between Sinitic and Uralic. The Sino-Finnic term for 'moon, month' is among these four etyma. It is demonstrated that this term should be aboriginal in Sino-Uralic languages.

description: В статье описываются методы расчета объема амфор, используемые современными археологами, и предлагается новый достаточно точный метод расчета объема античных остродонных амфор на примере узкогорлых светлоглиняных амфор III в.н.э. варианта D из Танаиса. Описанный в статье метод основан на математической модели амфор, как сложных тел вращения, и использует для ее создания метод геометрической аппроксимации. С помощью разработанной модели были получены формулы для расчета объема емкостной части амфоры и её основных сегментов. Создание эффективной математической модели для узкогорлых светлоглиняных амфор доказывает принципиальную возможность создания сходных математических моделей и для других типов амфор, в том числе, для сосудов больших размеров, например, пифосов. В статье даются интерпретации формул Герона для "пифоида" и "сфероидного пифоса" с точки зрения простых тел вращения, образованных линиями второго порядка (параболой и эллипсом), определяется форма "пифоида", как усеченного параболоида вращения, а также делается вывод о принадлежности Архимеду авторства "формул Герона" для расчета объема "пифоида" и "сфероидного пифоса".

description: Variations of the muscle belly and tendon of flexor digitorum superficialis to the fifth digit are common. We encountered an unusual variant during routine educational dissection; an accessory tendon of flexor digitorum superficialis that united with the tendon of flexor digitorum profundus to the fifth digit. This variant is not documented in the literature. Known variations of flexor digitorum superficialis to the fifth digit are discussed to allow for comparison with the variant identified in this report. The potential clinical significance of the variant is speculated upon.

description: During the last two decades, one of the most impressive achievements in Taiwan has been that her rapid economic growth has been accompanied by an increasingly equalitarian income distribution. In the process of Taiwan's economic development, the government has played a key role. To raise the standard of living, two main strategies have been effectively carried out, that is, to accelerate economic growth through industrialization and to maintain price stability by pricing policies for public enterprises. During the first phase (1953-1961), the strategy was to foster industry with the aid of agriculture and to develop agriculture with the aid of industry while during the second phase (1962-present), the strategy is to develop agriculture with the aid of industry and to expand industry with the aid of foreign trade. In reviewing the implementation of the policy measures, the land reform program, the promulgation of the statute for the encouragement of investment, the establishment of export processing zones and low pricing policies for public enterprises have been examined. It should be noted that for a labor-abundant society the best way to achieve the equalization of income distribution is to create more job opportunities for the people through industrialization.

Year: 2025
Subjects: classificationCode: 460806
subject: Human-computer interaction

description: The zine is a student coursework for the Design Justice module, which explores algorithmic injustice in mainly UK food delivery platforms like Deliveroo, Uber Eats, and Just Eat. The zine investigates how opaque “black-box” systems impact migrant and racialised couriers by assigning jobs, determining pay, and enforcing penalties without transparency. Grounded in the principles of Design Justice and Data Feminism, it combines visual storytelling, lived experiences, and a co-design proposal for fairer platforms.Two versions are available: a digital reading version and a printable interactive version that preserves the original folded zine format. Readers can choose the format that suits their needs.
Anatomy of the hippocampus and its emerging roles in modulating emotion-dependent autonomic activities
Creators: name: Ajayi, Itopa E.
Publisher: name: Italian Journal of Anatomy and Embryology
Year: 2020

description: The hippocampus is popularly known to be involved in learning and memory. However, emerging evidence indicates that the hippocampus also mediates emotions in a process that involves modulating motor and autonomic outflow. The parts of the hippocampus involved in modulating autonomic activities are distinct and thus support the argument of inherent structural and functional segregation. It is suggested that the ability to modulate emotion-dependent autonomic rhythm results from descending synaptic interactions with nuclei in the hypothalamus and brainstem where the rhythm of motor and autonomic activities is generated and maintained. However, there is little knowledge of the anatomical pathways and circuit physiology that support the modulation of such autonomic activities. Also, in coordinating physiologic responses, forebrain structures operate through functional networks, but the neural pathways and mechanisms involved in such complex interactions are not clear. Thus, the current review aims at elucidating the anatomy of the hippocampus with emphasis on the intra and inter structural circuits responsible for modulating emotion-dependent autonomic activities.

description: In February 1979 the People's Daily of Peking announced important changes affecting commune and brigade enterprises with respect to income-tax derived from trade and commerce. Generally, enterprises not owned by the state are called upon to pay this tax. China's income-tax system is presented against this background. The first part of the essay provides a survey of the historical development of taxes dating from the founding of the People's Republic of China to 1962. In January 1963 the National Council issued new income-tax regulations for individual establishments, co-operative sales agencies, small trade and transport co-operatives, which are probably still in effect today and which are discussed in detail in the second part of the essay. Income-tax regulations for commune and brigade enterprises were only established in 1966. The proportional tax-scale, which came into use in this context, has been replacing a progressive scale in some provinces since 1974-75. More detailed information about the latter is presented for the city of Tianjin. In the closing section a connection is made between tax changes for commune and brigade enterprises, and the effort of the Chinese leadershipto increase the extent of mechanisation in agriculture.

An application of the graph theory to the study of the human locomotor system

description: The study of the relationships between the different structures of the human locomotor system still raises great interest. In fact, the human body networks and in particular the “myofascial system network” underlie posture and movement and new knowledge could be useful and applied to many fields such as medicine and prosthetics. The hypothesis of this study was to verify the possibility of creating a structural network representing the human locomotor system as well as to study and describe the relationship between the different structures considered. The graph theory was applied to a network of 2339 body parts (nodes) and 7310 links, representing the locomotor system. The open source platform software Cytoscape was used for data entry (nodes and links) as well as for debugging. In addition, the “NetworkAnalyzer” plugin was used for the descriptive statistics of the network obtained. In order to achieve a better rendering, the results of the network parameters gained were then imported into Gephi graph platform. At the end of this procedure, we obtained an image of a human being in an orthostatic position with a precise distribution of the nodes and links. More specifically, “the shortest pathways analysis of the network” demonstrated that any two randomly selected nodes on the network were connected by pathways of 4 or at most 6-8 nodes. Moreover, the Edge Radiality Distribution analysis was carried out in order to define how a single node is functionally relevant for other nodes: the probability distribution ranged from 0.4 to 0.77. This indicates that the majority of nodes tend to be functionally relevant for the others, but none of these is predominant. As a whole, the Cluster Coefficient (0.260) demonstrates that the network is neither random nor “strongly organized”.
