description: Mass loss from glaciers and ice caps represents the largest terrestrial component of current sea level rise. However, our understanding of how the processes governing mass loss will respond to climate warming remains incomplete. This study explores the relationship between surface elevation changes (dh/dt), glacier velocity changes (du/dt), and bedrock topography at the Trinity-Wykeham Glacier system (TWG), Canadian High Arctic, using a range of satellite and airborne datasets. We use measurements of dh/dt from ICESat (2003–2009) and CryoSat-2 (2010–2016) repeat observations to show that rates of surface lowering increased from 4 m yr−1 to 6 m yr−1 across the lowermost 10 km of the TWG. We show that surface flow rates at both Trinity Glacier and Wykeham Glacier doubled over 16 years, during which time the ice front retreated 4.45 km. The combination of thinning, acceleration and retreat of the TWG suggests that a dynamic thinning mechanism is responsible for the observed changes, and we suggest that both glaciers have transitioned from fully grounded to partially floating. Furthermore, by comparing the separate glacier troughs we suggest that the dynamic changes are modulated by both lateral friction from the valley sides and the complex geometry of the bed. Further, the presence of bedrock ridges induces crevassing on the surface and provides a direct link for surface meltwater to reach the bed. We observe supraglacial lakes that drain at the end of summer and are concurrent with a reduction in glacier velocity, suggesting hydrological connections between the surface and the bed significantly impact ice flow. The bedrock topography thus has a primary influence on the nature of the changes in ice dynamics observed over the last decade.
"I thought Canadians were white!" : an intersectional gendered visual analysis of race, nation, gender, and LGBT+ representation in ESL/ELL textbooks
Creators: name: Nelson, Jhonelle
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Despite the international status of the English language, there is a very particular image of who speaks ‘good’ English. Whatever the racial, gender, cultural, national or other identities of the English as Second Language/English Language Learning (ESL/ELL) instructors and their students, there are questions about the images and representations in the teaching materials that are used to guide students into the mysteries of English. Given the assumptions about the source of ‘good,’ acceptable English, how are ‘English speakers’ being represented to English learners, and what role did ESL materials play in students’ perceptions? What representations of race, gender, women, sexuality and nation do the available teaching materials convey to an increasingly diverse range of ESL instructors and their students? This paper examines the implications of intersectional gendered visual representations of people, classes, sexualities and nations in a range of popular teaching materials available in Canada. Visual data from 10 ESL/ELL textbooks was collected, organized and analyzed with the intention of reaching a conclusion about the state of diverse representation in modern teaching materials, and to fill in the gap of Canadian scholarship on intersectional visual depictions in English language education.

description: We introduce a generalisation of the well-known ARCH process, widely used for generating uncorrelated stochastic time series with long-term non-Gaussian distributions and long-lasting correlations in the (instantaneous) standard deviation exhibiting a clustering profile. Specifically, inspired by the fact that in a variety of systems impacting events are hardly forgot, we split the process into two different regimes: a first one for regular periods where the average volatility of the fluctuations within a certain period of time is below a certain threshold and another one when the local standard deviation outnumbers it. In the former situation we use standard rules for heteroscedastic processes whereas in the latter case the system starts recalling past values that surpassed the threshold. Our results show that for appropriate parameter values the model is able to provide fat tailed probability density functions and strong persistence of the instantaneous variance characterised by large values of the Hurst exponent is greater than 0.8, which are ubiquitous features in complex systems.

title: DEPRECATED: A COMPARISON OF THE RELATIVE IMPACT OF A COGNITIVE-BEHAVIOURAL INTERVENTION CONSISTING OF AN EDUCATION COMPONENT, WITH A POSTAL EDUCATION PACKAGE, ON COPING WITH OSTEOPOROSIS
Creators: name: DAVENPORT CLARKE, CHARLOTTE
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1997

description: A study was carried out in order to compare the effects of a cognitive-behavioural intervention, with a postal education package, on coping with osteoporosis. Thirty osteoporosis sufferers were divided into three groups. One group received an intervention programme consisting of education, relaxation techniques, and instruction in the use of coping strategies for pain and stress. A comparison group received an education booklet on osteoporosis sent to them through the postal system. The study also included a non-treatment control group. Measures of locus of control, depression, anxiety, pain, and disease knowledge, were taken pre-and post-intervention. lt was predicted that the intervention group would report a significant decrease in external locus of control (subdivided into chance happenings, and powerful doctor control beliefs), and an increase in internal locus of control, and in disease knowledge compared to the other two groups. A significant decrease in depression, anxiety, and pain ratings was also predicted for the intervention group compared to the comparison group and the control group. It was further predicted that their would be no relationship between the age of participants, and scores on any of the outcome measures. Analyses of variance carried out on the data revealed significant differences between the groups from baseline to follow-up on some of the measures. Depression and pain ratings decreased significantly for the intervention group compared to the other two groups. Although anxiety also showed a trend to decrease for the intervention group, this result was not significant. Both internal locus of control and disease knowledge increased significantly for the intervention group compared to the other two groups. No significant differences were found post-intervention between the groups for external locus of control. Correlational analysis revealed no significant relationship between the age of participants and any of the dependent measures. These results suggest that education delivered on an individual basis as part of a cognitive behavioural-intervention is more effective in increasing disease knowledge than an education package sent to osteoporosis sufferers through the postal system. The results further suggest that adaptation to osteoporosis can be facilitated by equipping sufferers with a repertoire of cognitive-behavioural coping strategies, and that older adults are just as likely to benefit from such an approach as their younger counterparts. The results are discussed in relation to previous research findings, and suggestions for future research are put forward.
Deep Impact ejection from Comet 9P/Tempel 1 as a triggered outburst

description: Ejection of material after the Deep Impact collision with Comet Tempel 1 was studied based on analysis of the images made by the Deep Impact cameras during the first 13 minutes after impact. Analysis of the images shows that there was a local maximum of the rate of ejection at time of ejection ~10 s with typical velocities ~100 m/s. At the same time, a considerable excessive ejection in a few directions began, the direction to the brightest pixel changed by ~50 deg, and there was a local increase of brightness of the brightest pixel. The ejection can be considered as a superposition of the normal ejection and the longer triggered outburst.

Neutrino Masses via the Zee Mechanism in 5D split fermions model

description: We study the Zee model in the framework of the split fermion model in $M_4\times S_1/Z_2$ spacetime. Neutrino masses are generated through 1-loop diagrams without the right-handed neutrinos introduced. By assuming an order one anarchical complex 5D Yukawa couplings, all the effective 4D Yukawa couplings are determined by the wave function overlap between the split fermions and the bulk scalars in the fifth dimension. The predictability of the Yukawa couplings is in sharp contrast to the original Zee model in 4D where the Yukawa couplings are unknown free parameters. This setup exhibits a geometrical alternative to the lepton flavor symmetry. By giving four explicit sets of the split fermion locations, we demonstrate that it is possible to simultaneously fit the lepton masses and neutrino oscillation data by just a handful free parameters without much fine tuning. Moreover, we are able to make definite predictions for the mixing angle $θ_{13}$, the absolute neutrino masses, and the lepton flavor violation processes for each configuration.

Search for First Generation Scalar Leptoquarks in the evjj channel in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 7 TeV

description: A search for pair-production of first generation scalar leptoquarks is performed in the final state containing an electron, a neutrino, and at least two jets using proton-proton collision data at sqrt(s)=7 TeV. The data were collected by the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 inverse picobarns. The number of observed events is in good agreement with the predictions for standard model processes. Prior CMS results in the dielectron channel are combined with this electron+neutrino search. A 95% confidence level combined lower limit is set on the mass of a first generation scalar leptoquark at 340 GeV for beta=0.5, where beta is the branching fraction of the leptoquark to an electron and a quark. These results represent the most stringent direct limits to date for values of beta greater than 0.05.
On the Corrosion Resistance of Porous Electroplated Zinc Coatings in Different Corrosive Media

description: The corrosion resistance of an electroplated (EP) Zn coating whose surface was chemically etched to produce surface defects (pores) is investigated in this work. Impedance and DC polarisation measururements were employed to study the behaviour of such coating in various corrosive media (NaCl, NaOH and rain water). Four different faradaic relaxation processes were clearly revealed in different NaCl concentrations (from 0.1M to 1M). In the most concentrated solutions at least three relaxation processes at low frequencies (LF) appeared and were related to zinc deposition and dissolution. At lower concentrations and depending on the pH, only one process was observed. The charge transfer resistance (Rct) and the corrosion current (Icorr) were practically stable in the pH range 5 to 10. In deaerated NaCl 0.1M, the EIS diagrams showed two time-constants at very close frequencies. From the EIS diagrams the porous nature of the coating was highlighted and showed that the dissolution mechanisms occurred at the base of the pores.

description: Universal quantum computation can be achieved by simply performing single-qubit measurements on a highly entangled resource state, such as cluster states. The family of Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki states has recently been intensively explored and shown to provide restricted computation. Here, we show that the two-dimensional Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki state on a honeycomb lattice is a universal resource for measurement-based quantum computation.

description: In October 2017, Jo Smith and colleagues at the Organic Research Centre described the lessons learnt from their research on the effects of integrating willow and alder short rotation coppice on grassland on an organic farm in Southern England, as part of the EU FP7 project Agforward. The yields of woodchip from the willow, in January 2017 (after being coppiced in February 2016) were low, but there were good yields from the alder. The alder also had levels of digestible organic matter that compared favourably with typical livestock forages. In October 2016, the grass alleys between the alder and willow tree rows were ploughed and a break crop of organic oats was planted. There was little observed impact of the trees on the oats. Weed cover was higher in the tree row, with more perennial weeds in particular, compared to the crop alley. Earthworm abundances were also higher in the tree rows which form an undisturbed stable habitat. By contrast ground beetles occurred in greater abundances in the crop alleys.

description: We analyse semiclassical strings in AdS in the limit of one large spin. In this limit, classical string dynamics is described by a finite number of collective coordinates corresponding to spikes or cusps of the string. The semiclassical spectrum consists of two branches of excitations corresponding to "large" and "small" spikes respectively. We propose that these states are dual to the excitations known as large and small holes in the spin chain description of N=4 SUSY Yang-Mills. The dynamics of large spikes in classical string theory can be mapped to that of a classical spin chain of fixed length. In turn, small spikes correspond to classical solitons propagating on the background formed by the large spikes. We derive the dispersion relation for these excitations directly in the finite gap formalism.

description: The quantum dynamics of a strongly driven, strongly coupled single-atom-cavity system is studied by evaluating time-dependent second- and third-order correlations of the emitted photons. The coherent energy exchange, first, between the atom and the cavity mode, and second, between the atom-cavity system and the driving laser, is observed. Three-photon detections show an asymmetry in time, a consequence of the breakdown of detailed balance. The results are in good agreement with theory and are a first step towards the control of a quantum trajectory at larger driving strength.

description: The most massive stars can form via standard disk accretion - despite of the radiation pressure generated - due to the fact that the massive accretion disk yields a strong anisotropy in the radiation field, releasing most of the radiation pressure perpendicular to the disk accretion flow. Here, we analyze the self-gravity of the forming circumstellar disk as the potential major driver of the angular momentum transport in such massive disks responsible for the high accretion rates needed for the formation of massive stars. For this purpose, we perform self-gravity radiation hydrodynamics simulations of the collapse of massive pre-stellar cores. The formation and evolution of the resulting circumstellar disk is investigated in 1.) axially symmetric simulations using an alpha-shear-viscosity prescription and 2.) a three-dimensional simulation, in which the angular momentum transport is provided self-consistently by developing gravitational torques in the self-gravitating accretion disk. The simulation series of different strength of the alpha-viscosity shows that the accretion history of the forming star is mostly independent of the alpha-viscosity-parameter. The accretion history of the three-dimensional run driven by self-gravity is more time-dependent than the viscous disk evolution in axial symmetry. The mean accretion rate, i.e. the stellar mass growth, is nearly identical to the alpha-viscosity models. We conclude that the development of gravitational torques in self-gravitating disks around forming massive stars provides a self-consistent mechanism to efficiently transport the angular momentum to outer disk radii. Also the formation of the most massive stars can therefore be understood in the standard accretion disk scenario.

description: The Internet of Things (IoT) is undeniably transforming the way that organizations communicate and organize everyday businesses and industrial procedures. Its adoption has proven well suited for sectors that manage a large number of assets and coordinate complex and distributed processes. This survey analyzes the great potential for applying IoT technologies (i.e., data-driven applications or embedded automation and intelligent adaptive systems) to revolutionize modern warfare and provide benefits similar to those in industry. It identifies scenarios where Defense and Public Safety (PS) could leverage better commercial IoT capabilities to deliver greater survivability to the warfighter or first responders, while reducing costs and increasing operation efficiency and effectiveness. This article reviews the main tactical requirements and the architecture, examining gaps and shortcomings in existing IoT systems across the military field and mission-critical scenarios. The review characterizes the open challenges for a broad deployment and presents a research roadmap for enabling an affordable IoT for defense and PS.

Angular momentum of two collided rarefied preplanetesimals and formation of binaries

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: The mean angular momentum associated with the collision of two celestial objects moving in almost circular heliocentric orbits was studied. The results of these studies were used to develop models of the formation of binaries at the stage of rarefied preplanetesimals. The models can explain a greater fraction of binaries formed at greater distances from the Sun. Sometimes there could be two centers of contraction inside the rotating preplanetesimal formed as the result of a collision between two rarefied preplanetesimals. Such formation of binaries could result in binaries with almost the same masses of components separated by a large distance. Formation of a disk around the primary could result because the angular momentum that was obtained by a rarefied preplanetesimal formed by collision was greater than the critical angular momentum for a solid body. One or several satellites of the primary could be formed from the disk.

description: We perform a statistical analysis of the binary black hole problem in the post-Newtonian approximation by systematically sampling and evolving the parameter space of initial configurations for quasi-circular inspirals. Through a principal component analysis of spin and orbital angular momentum variables we systematically look for uncorrelated quantities and find three of them which are highly conserved in a statistical sense, both as functions of time and with respect to variations in initial spin orientations. We also look for and find the variables that account for the largest variations in the problem. We present binary black hole simulations of the full Einstein equations analyzing to what extent these results might carry over to the full theory in the inspiral and merger regimes. Among other applications these results should be useful both in semi-analytical and numerical building of templates of gravitational waves for gravitational wave detectors.

description: We consider the process of diffusion in a gradient elastic continuum. The influence of the stress-strain state on concentration is introduced by Duhamel-Neumannâs law. The influence of diffusion on the stress-strain state is introduced by two modifications of the diffusion coefficient: through the function of strain and pressure. The problem is solved numerically by using finite-difference schemes. The calculation results are compared with experimental data.

description: The temperature-dependent transverse mechanical properties of single-walled nanotubes are studied using a molecular mechanics approach. The stretching and bond angle force constants describing the mechanical behaviour of the sp^{2} bonds are resolved in the temperature range between 0 K and 1600 K, allowing to identify a temperature dependence of the nanotubes wall thickness. We observe a decrease of the stiffness properties (axial and shear Young's modulus) with increasing temperatures, and an augmentation of the transverse Poisson's ratio, with magnitudes depending on the chirality of the nanotube. Our closed-form predictions compare well with existing Molecular Dynamics simulations.

description: Nanoparticles have been developed in the last few decades in effort to improve delivery of chemotherapeutics and reduce off-target effects. Despite longer circulation times and improved tumor localization, chemotherapeutics still often lack improved efficacy with nanoparticle delivery compared to delivery of free drug. Many nanoparticles enter cells by endocytosis, where degradation in lysosomes or immediate exocytosis often limits cytoplasmic drug release, ultimately reducing bioavailability of drugs within the cell. Towards overcoming these barriers, for my thesis work, I have developed two different approaches for novel liposomal nanoparticles that improve efficiency of intracellular delivery. The first approach relies on the permeability of lipid phase boundaries in ternary lipid compositions to promote effective release. Exploiting this property, I demonstrated delivery of doxorubicin using ternary liposomes that have the potential to undergo membrane phase separation upon contact with the cell surface. My results revealed that ternary, phase separating vesicles improve the performance of doxorubicin by up to 5-fold in comparison to delivery of conventional liposomal doxorubicin. The second approach I examined for improving efficient intracellular delivery of therapeutics harnesses the cellular gap junction network. Gap junctions allow direct, intracellular diffusion of molecules from one cell to another. Our lab has developed connectosomes, cell-derived vesicles that contain gap junction transmembrane proteins enabling the formation of gap junction channels with cells. Doxorubicin delivery via connectosomes dramatically reduced the minimum lethal dose, in vitro, in comparison to conventional liposomal doxorubicin. In my graduate work, I demonstrated that connectosomes also improve doxorubicin delivery to cellular targets in vivo in mouse models by up to 16-fold compared to conventional liposomal doxorubicin. Further, I investigated the potential for connectosomes to deliver not just small molecule therapeutics, but macromolecular therapeutics to cells. I show that polymer-like macromolecules of 10 kDa can diffuse through gap junction channels, and further that they exhibit 95% loading into connectosomes through gap junction hemichannel pores. Overall, my work reveals two novel approaches for improving delivery efficiency to intracellular targets for therapeutic molecules. These two approaches demonstrate mechanisms to overcome the barriers of endocytosis by enabling direct delivery of molecular cargo to the cellular interior.

description: This chapter explains a technique for detection and grasping of objects using two arrns of an aerial robot. Toe method robustly obtains the 6D pose of the robot to grasp it regardless the environment. Toe method is based on modeling the objects surfaces under the probabilistic framework of Gaussian Processes. A prob­abilistic framework has been proposed to tackle the problem of shape uncertainty when the robot has partial information about the object to be manipulated. This un­certainty is modeled using GPIS and evaluated using the quality metric: probability of force closure.
Life and death of a despoiler : the Confucian reformation of Yun Hyu
Creators: name: Shababo, Guy Shimon
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Yun Hyu was a seventeenth-century scholar-official of the Chosŏn Dynasty. Although he never took the civil service exams, he held office under three different Chosŏn Kings. Yun Hyu is mostly known for his involvement in the so-called Rites Controversy over the mourning of King Hyojong, and for his Socratian execution, by poison. Past studies of Yun Hyu suggested a variety of reasons for the controversial treatment he received. In this work I argue that we should think of Yun Hyu as a religious thinker. Reading Yun Hyu as a theologian allow us to appreciate the dramatic implications of his thought and understand the strong reaction of his peers and opponents. To do so I first present Yun Hyu’s life and work in the context of his time and society, namely the seventeenth-century Neo-Confucian factions. This is Yun Hyu’s most complete biography in English to date. It is followed by a close reading of his most influential texts. I have divided Yun Hyu’s writings into three subjects to represent the main aspects of his religious thought: Sacred texts, divinity and the afterlife. In each chapter I attempt to introduce Yun Hyu’s original thought and contributions but also demonstrate how a religious reading of his writing sheds some light on his motives. Finally, I conclude by discussing the religiousness of Neo-Confucianism, demonstrating how it is implemented in the case of Chosŏn in general and Yun Hyu specifically. In particular I demonstrate that a cognitive and evolutionary approach to religion has much to offer us in the way of understanding the motives and agenda of premodern people.

description: We consider a system in a non-equilibrium steady state by joining two semi-infinite Ising chains coupled to thermal reservoirs with {\em different} temperatures, $T$ and $T^{\prime}$. To compute the energy flux from the hot bath through our system into the cold bath, we exploit Glauber heat-bath dynamics to derive an exact equation for the two-spin correlations, which we solve for $T^{\prime}=\infty$ and arbitrary $T$. We find that, in the $T'=\infty$ sector, the in-flux occurs only at the first spin. In the $T

How to identify exoplanet surfaces: without directly seeing them?
Creators: name: Yu, Xinting
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Sub-Neptunes (radii of 1.25-4 Earth radius) remain the most commonly detected exoplanets to date. However, it remains difficult for observations to directly “see” whether these intermediate-sized exoplanets have surfaces and where their surfaces are located. Here we propose a new technique that uses solely the abundances of atmospheric trace species in the visible atmospheres as proxies for identifying surfaces on sub-Neptunes. As an example, we used a state-of-the-art photochemical model to simulate the atmospheric evolution of K2-18b and investigate its final steady-state composition with surfaces located at different pressure levels. We find that surface location has a significant impact on the atmospheric abundances of trace species, making them deviate significantly from their thermochemical equilibrium and “no-surface” conditions. For an assumed H2-rich atmosphere for K2-18b, we identify seven chemical species that are most sensitive to the existence of surfaces: ammonia (NH3), methane (CH4), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), acetylene (C2H2), ethane (C2H6), carbon monoxide (CO), and carbon dioxide (CO2). We propose a flowchart that uses species abundance ratios to help distinguish the existence of surfaces and the rough surface locations. This framework can be applied together with future observations to other sub-Neptunes of interest.

Injury Severity Analysis of Truck-Involved Crashes under Different Weather Conditions

description: This paper investigates truck-involved crashes to determine the statistically significant factors that contribute to injury severity under different weather conditions. The analysis uses crash data from the state of Ohio between 2011 and 2015 available from the Highway Safety Information System. To determine if weather conditions should be considered separately for truck safety analyses, parameter transferability tests are conducted; the results suggest that weather conditions should be modeled separately with a high level of statistical confidence. To this end, three separate mixed logit models are estimated for three different weather conditions: normal, rain and snow. The estimated models identify a variety of statistically significant factors influencing the injury severity. Different weather conditions are found to have different contributing effects on injury severity in truck-involved crashes. Rural, rear-end and sideswipe crash parameters were found to have significantly different levels of impact on injury severity. Based on the findings of this study, several countermeasures are suggested: 1) safety and enforcement programs should focus on female truck drivers, 2) a variable speed limit sign should be used to lower speeds of trucks during rainy condition, and 3) trucks should be restricted or prohibited on non-interstates during rainy and snowy conditions. These countermeasures could reduce the number and severity of truck-involved crashes under different weather conditions.

description: Complex effect of different contributions (spontaneously formed In nanoparticles, near-interface, surface and bulk layers) on electrophysical properties of InN epitaxial films is studied. Transport parameters of the surface layer are determined from the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations measured in undoped and Mg-doped InN films at magnetic fields up to 63 T. It is shown that the In nanoparticles, near-interface and bulk layers play the dominant role in the electrical conductivity of InN, while influence of the surface layer is pronounced only in the compensated low-mobility InN:Mg films.
