description: Five concentrations of paclobutrazol ('Cultar') were applied as a soil drench to container grown pummelo (Citrus grandis), grafted on either sour orange (Citrus aurantium) or alemow (Citrus macrophylla), and Barbados cherry (Halpighia glabra). The citrus received between 0.03 and 0.5 g and the cherry between 0.005 and 0.5 g a.i. per container. Paclobutrazol had no effect on the increase in caliper of the pummelo scion and sour orange but it reduced it on alemow. On both rootstocks, 10% of the trees bore fruit in the 0.5 g a.i. treatment compared with 30% in the control and less than 1% in field plantings. Barbados cherry produced 111% more fruit in the highest treatment than in the control. It is concluded that paclobutrazol may be useful in tropical situations to induce flowering by simulating drought conditions when rainfall is abundant

description: In 2016, in separate electoral events in the UK and the United States, the angst arising from a perception of falling behind among many voters was successfully tapped into by the proponents of Brexit and Donald Trump’s presidential campaign. Slogans such as UK Independence Day and Make America Great Again captured the feeling of angst. Both the Leave campaign and Donald Trump suggested that existing trade arrangements were to blame and that new trading arrangements could redress the perceived decline. Neither, however, put forth any specific policies outlining how this was to be accomplished. This article examines the options for altering international trade arrangements in ways that could achieve a reversal of the fortunes of those left behind. The conclusion, after examining various trade policy options, is that there is no obvious path to achieving the desired result through changes in trading arrangements.

description: It is shown that accurate photometric observations of a relatively high--magnification microlensing event ($A\gg 1$), occurring close to the line of sight of a gravitational wave (GW) source, represented by a binary star, can allow the detection of subtle gravitational effects. After reviewing the physical nature of such effects, it is discussed to what extent these phenomena can actually be due to GWs. Expressions for the amplitude of the phenomena and the detection probability are supplied.

The X-ray and radio emission from SN 2002ap: The importance of Compton scattering

description: The radio and X-ray observations of the Type Ic supernova SN 2002ap are modeled. We find that inverse Compton cooling by photospheric photons explains the observed steep radio spectrum, and also the X-ray flux observed by XMM. Thermal emission from the shock is insufficient to explain the X-ray flux. The radio emitting region expands with a velocity of, roughly, 70,000 km/s. From the ratio of X-ray to radio emission we find that the energy densities of magnetic fields and relativistic electrons are close to equipartion.

description: We present the implementation of dusty, radiation pressure dominated photoionization models applicable to the Narrow Line Regions (NLRs) of Active Galactic Nuclei, using the \mapiii code. We give a grid of the predicted intensities of the most commonly used diagnostic spectral lines in the UV, optical and IR, covering a wide range of density, metallicity, the power-law index characterizing the photoionizing source and photoionization parameter, for use in the diagnosis of NLRs. We examine the temperature, density and ionization structure of these models, investigating the effect of variation of these parameters in order to gain a better understanding of NLR clouds themselves.

Das Blausteinfenn – Vegetation, Entwicklung und Schutz eines Hangmoores im Hohen Fläming (Brandenburg)
The Blausteinfenn – vegetation, development and protection of a slope mire of the Hoher Fläming (Brandenburg, Germany)
Creators: name: Brande, Arthur
name: Rohner, Maria-Sofie
Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 2016

description: Abstract: The Blausteinfenn near the village of Gräben (fig. 1, 2) is at present a degradated mire comprising various tree and shrub succession stages and including some Molinia-Eriophorum-Carex-Sphagnum vegetation. The mire got his name from a nearby erratic boulder (blue granite rock) of penulimate glacial age (Warthe stage of the Saalian glaciation). Under local convenient local and hydrographic conditions the fen developed on a flat eastern slope position of the Verlorenwasser (‘lost water’ brook) lowland, which is connected with the Buckau valley and the Havel river. The mire development started on sandy soils by paludification forming a highly decomposed peat during the Alleröd or more probably the Preboreal chronozone. After a long lasting phase of stagnation further development continued only in the Subboreal and Older Subatlantic chronozone. Passing an alder and birch succession stage and deposition of fen peat, finally the stage of a Sphagnum mire was reached. This ultimate succession stage obviously is a result of overgrowing of peat digging sites already in medieval and at least in modern times. The situation in 2002/04 was found to be a consequence of various mire use such as drainage, continuous peat cutting and fish ponds up to the 19th century and its abandoning lateron, i.e. after 1945. During the last years measures were carried out especially to improve the water regime by regulation of the outwards flow and by dam blocking. Further projects comprise the total closing of ditches in the sensitive mire sites.
description: Zusammenfassung: Das Blausteinfenn bei Gräben, ein breites, flach geneigtes Hangmoor am Osthang der Niederung des in Buckau und Havel entwässernden Verlorenwasserbachs, ist heute ein degradiertes Moor mit verschiedenen Gehölzstadien und Molinia-Eriophorum-Carex-Sphagnum-Beständen. Unterlagert von stark zersetzten Torfen des Alleröds oder Präboreals verlief die Entwicklung nach einer Stillstandsphase erst im Subboreal und Älteren Subatlantikum, vorwiegend jedoch im Jüngeren Subatlantikum, über ein Erlen- und Birkenstadium mit Riedtorfen zum Sphagnum-Moor. Letzteres entstand möglicherweise bereits nach mittelalterlich-neuzeitlichen Abtorfungen. Der Zustand um 2002/04 ist das Ergebnis von Entwässerungen, Torfabbau, verschiedenen Nutzungen seit dem 19. Jahrhundert und der Nutzungsaufgabe nach 1945. In den vergangenen Jahren sind Maßnahmen zum Erhalt bzw. zur Verbesserung des Moorzustandes ergriffen worden, wie Sicherung des Wasserhaushaltes durch Stauregulierung und Abdichten von Dämmen. Geplant sind Grabenverschließungen.

description: We show that, contrarily to the widespread belief, in quantum mechanics repeatable measurements are not necessarily described by orthogonal projectors--the customary paradigm of "observable". Nonorthogonal repeatability, however, occurs only for infinite dimensions. We also show that when a non orthogonal repeatable measurement is performed, the measured system retains some "memory" of the number of times that the measurement has been performed.

description: Abstract: For 200 years’ peatland studies have been done in Greifswald in Mecklenburg Western Pomerania (Germany). This article describes the development of peatland studies in Greifswald based on the chronology of important actors, their achievements and publications since the early 19th century. Peatland studies developed as a transdisciplinary discipline in science mainly conducted by botanists and geologists. Special emphasis is on the preparation of the concept of „vegetation forms“, the classification of hydrogenetic mire types, the quantitative palynology and the concept of paludiculture by scientists in Greifswald. The development of peatland studies in Greifswald is closely linked with the history of the Ernst-Moritz-Arndt University in Greifswald. However new structures and institutions developed and were taken into account, for instance the Greifswald Mire Centre.

Die Entwicklung der Moorforschung in Greifswald wird nachvollzogen in einer chronologisch aufgebauten Betrachtung des Wirkens wichtiger Vertreter und ihrer Arbeiten, beginnend mit dem frühen 19. Jahrhundert. Die Einordnung ihres Schaffens erfolgt vor dem Hintergrund der Entwicklung der Moorkunde als fachübergreifende, häufig von Botanikern und Geologen betriebene Wissenschaft. Hervorzuheben ist die Konzeptionierung und Erarbeitung des Vegetationsformenkonzeptes, der hydrogenetischen Moorklassifikation, der quantitativen Palynologie sowie der Paludikultur durch Greifswalder Forscher. Die Entwicklung der Moorkunde in Greifswald ist zwar eng mit der Geschichte der hiesigen Universität verzahnt, jedoch werden auch sich neu formende, darüberhinausgehende Strukturen, wie An-Institute, Stiftungen und das Greifswald Moor Centrum berücksichtigt.

title: Doing development and being Gurage : the embeddedness of development in Sebat Bet Gurage identities
Creators: name: Henry, Leroi Wendel
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2002

description: This thesis aims to contribute towards an understanding of the relationship between ethnicity and development in Africa. I examine the complex relationship between ethnicity and communal action in the Gurage People's Self-help and Development and Organisation (GPSDO), a federation of ethnically based Development Associations in Ethiopia. I investigate the extent to which concepts such as participation and accountability, used by dominant development discourses to analyse the relationship between development agencies and their beneficiaries, are applicable to ethnically based indigenous development associations. These discourses are juxtaposed with the ways that the development associations, their stakeholders and beneficiaries conceptualise their relationships and the processes and purposes of development. In this thesis, I argue the trusteeship constructed between indigenous ethnically based development associations and their beneficiary communities is underpinned by indigenous perceptions of civic virtue, the rights and obligations inherent in notions of ethnic citizenship. Although concepts such as, participation and accountability are used in Gurage development discourses, their meanings are related to the values and practices embedded in Gurage notions of citizenship. I argue that to understand the relationship between indigenous ethnically based development associations and their beneficiaries, one must first analyse the complex web of rights and obligations that are embedded in their perceptions of what it means to be a good citizen. I argue that ethnicity can act as a resource to be harnessed for development purposes and that the contested values embedded in Gurage ethnic identities act as a point of reference in the construction of trusteeship between GPSDO and its beneficiaries. Furthermore, for Gurages, the processes of development are part of the formation of civic virtue and thus, central to the construction of their ethnic identities.

description: We investigate the particle content of parity-preserving Weyl gauge theories of gravity (WGT$^+$) about a Minkowski background. Within a subset of the full theory, we use a systematic method previously presented in [arXiv:1812.02675] to determine 862 critical cases for which the parameter values in the action lead to additional gauge invariances. We find that 168 of these cases are free of ghosts and tachyons, provided the parameters satisfy certain conditions that we also determine. We further identify 40 of these cases that are also power-counting renormalizable and determine the corresponding conditions on the parameters. Of these theories, 11 have only massless tordion propagating particles, 23 have only a massive tordion propagating mode, and 6 have both. We also repeat our analysis for WGT$^+$ with vanishing torsion or curvature, respectively. We compare our findings with the very few previous results in the literature.

description: Trade policy is being increasingly scrutinized by various stakeholders, and trade has become a contentious issue in the general public debate. Some observers claim that estimated positive impacts of free trade agreements (FTAs) are exaggerated and that effects of FTAs are rather more likely to be negative. But relatively few ex post assessments of EU FTAs have been carried out to shed light on the issue. Against this background, the present short article compares the economic assessment of the negotiated outcome of the EU–Korea FTA with observed data. Our results point to sound projections against observed data at the aggregate level and in the largest sectors, such as machinery, as opposed to trade in less important sectors.

description: Abstract: Calculating the mean of data of the water conductivity ks/f, the geometric mean, respectively the median, will be preferred, because of the mainly geometric distribution of the data. A thought experiment shows, that the real mean of ks/f depends on the structure of the darcyan law, which allows only the arithmetic mean, despite a geometric distribution.
description: Zusammenfassung: Bei der Errechnung des Mittelwerts der Wasserleitfähigkeit ks/f wird das geometrische Mittel, bzw. der Median, bevorzugt, weil die Werte von ks/f eher geometrisch als arithmetisch verteilt sind. Ein Gedankenexperiment zeigt, dass der Mittelwert von ks/f -Werten von der Struktur des darcyschen Gesetzes abhängt, die nur den arithmetischen Mittelwert, auch bei einer geometrischen Verteilung, zulässt.

description: We present a $BVI$ photometric and astrometric catalogue of the open cluster NGC 3960, down to limiting magnitude $V\sim22$, obtained from observations taken with the Wide Field Imager camera at the MPG/ESO 2.2 m Telescope at La Silla. The photometry of all the stars detected in our field of view has been used to estimate a map of the strong differential reddening affecting this area. Our results indicate that, within the region where the cluster dominates, the $E(V-I)$ values range from 0.21 up to 0.78, with $E(V-I)=0.36$ ($E(B-V)=0.29$) at the nominal cluster centroid position; color excesses $E(V-I)$ up to 1 mag have been measured in the external regions of the field of view where field stars dominate. The reddening corrected color-magnitude diagram (CMD) allows us to conclude that the cluster has an age between 0.9 and 1.4 Gyr and a distance modulus of $(V-M_V)_0=11.35$. In order to minimize field star contamination, their number has been statistically subtracted based on the surface density map. The empirical cluster main sequence has been recovered in the $V$ vs. $V-I$ and in the $J$ vs. $J-K_S$ planes, using optical and infrared data, respectively. From these empirical cluster main sequences, two samples of candidate cluster members were derived in order to obtain the luminosity distributions as a function of the $V$ and $J$ magnitudes. The Luminosity Functions have been transformed into the corresponding Mass Functions; for $M>1 M_\odot$, the two distributions have been fitted with a power law of index $α_V=2.95\pm0.53$ and $α_J=2.81\pm0.84$ in $V$ and in $J$, respectively, while the Salpeter Mass Function in this notation has index $α=2.35$.

description: In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic spread across the globe and had severe impacts on the global economy. As the pandemic began to spread across the U.S., businesses closed and individuals were asked to comply with shelter-in- place and stay-at-home orders (Baker et al., 2020). Countries around the globe imposed similar measures, which negatively affected the global economy beyond anything experienced in nearly a century (Jackson et al., 2020; Sarkodie and Owusu, 2021). Consequently, the pandemic had a negative impact on U.S. forestry exports at the national and state level. Lower global economic activity and disruptions to transportation networks decreased international timber trade. Early in the pandemic, foreign ports were closed, which curtailed timber shipments, and worldwide shutdowns in construction and manufacturing weakened international demand for logs, lumber and other forest products (Riddle, 2020). In this report, we assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Tennessee forest product exports. We examine export losses in 2020 by destination countries and forest product category and further assess the full economic impact of decreased export sales on income and jobs at the state and county level. According to Muhammad and Taylor (2020), the COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on Tennessee’s forest product exports in 2020 due to supply and demand disruptions in the global market for finished wood products markets (e.g., furniture) and the interrelated market for raw materials and inputs (e.g., logs and lumber). In 2020, U.S. forest-product exports were down by more than $670 million when compared to the previous year. Geographically, the decline in export sales was mostly in southern states ($240 million), followed by western states ($217 million). Losses in 2020 were in addition to losses in 2019, due to the trade war between the U.S. and China. In 2020, the decrease in export sales for Tennessee was $38 million. Given the state’s dependence on foreign export sales of hardwoods, losses for Tennessee in percentage terms (22 percent in 2020 and 46 percent since 2018) exceeded national and regional averages (see Table 1) (USDA-FAS, 2021). The impacts of the trade war on U.S. and Tennessee forest product exports have been discussed in previous UT Extension reports (Muhammad and Taylor, 2020; Muhammad and Smith, 2020). The analysis in this report is based on the decrease in export sales in 2020, which has been mostly attributed to the pandemic (Riddle, 2020).

The Law of Subsidies in Air Transport Services
Creators: name: Abeyratne, Ruwantissa
name: Abeyratne, Ruwantissa
Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2017

description: The debate on subsidies in air transport has been closely associated with State aid that is allegedly calculated to enable carriers – in particular carriers such as Emirates, Etihad and Qatar – to distort markets and engage in anticompetitive conduct. Some carriers in competition with these three carriers have alleged that the two carriers of the United Arab Emirates and Qatar are unfairly depriving the carriers of the West of their “market share” by moving into the American and the European markets with undue and unfair advantages granted to them by their States. A lobby group representing the three major airlines that brought the complaint against the Gulf carriers – American Airlines, Delta and United Airlines – has said that the three carriers of the United Arab Emirates and Qatar have received $42 billion in subsidies and other benefits. The claim further alleges that, over the past decade, the three Middle East carriers have spent more than $100 billion on acquiring bloated fleets of modern wide-body aircraft. The request of the three American carriers was that the “open skies” agreements between the United States and the United Arab Emirates and between the United States and Qatar be “renegotiated” and modified, as the alleged subsidies had distorted international trade. This article discusses the legal regime pertaining to subsidies in air transport against the backdrop of this debate and evaluates the positions of the key players, including the International Civil Aviation Organization, the World Trade Organization and the airlines concerned.

description: Abstract: The International Peat Congress (IPC) has a long history. It is the prime scientific event of the International Peatland Society (IPS) and has been organized every fourth year since the first meeting in Ireland in 1954. The 15th IPC was different from all the previous Congresses. For the first time the IPC was organized in Tropical Asia – in Kuching, Malaysia. The Congress was a platform for highlighting the characteristics, importance and problems of tropical peatlands. In addition the large role of Asia as a market area in international trade became clear.

description: Seyfert narrow line region (NLR) emission line ratios are remarkably uniform, displaying only ~0.5 dex variation between galaxies, and even less within an individual object. Previous photoionization and shock models of this region were unable to explain this observation without the introduction of arbitrary assumptions or additional parameters. Dusty, radiation pressure dominated photoionization models provide a simple physical mechanism which can reproduce this spectral uniformity between different objects. In the first paper of this series we described this model and its implementation in detail, as well as presenting grids of model emission lines and examining the model structures. Here we explore these models further, demonstrating their ability to reproduce the observed Seyfert line ratios on standard line diagnostic diagrams in both the optical and UV. We also investigate the effects that the variation of metallicity, density and ionizing spectrum have upon both the new paradigm and the standard photoionization models used hitherto. Along with the standard diagnostic diagrams we provide several new diagnostic diagrams in the UV, Optical and IR. These new diagrams can provide further tests of the dusty, radiation pressure photoionization paradigm as well as being used as diagnostics of the metallicity, density and ionizing spectrum of the emission line clouds.

The experimental setup is constructed to measure the flux and spectrum of the reactor antineutrinos as a function of distance to the center of the active zone of the SM-3 reactor (Dimitrovgrad, Russia) in the range of 6 - 12 meters. Using all the collected data, we performed a model-independent analysis to determine the oscillation parameters $Δm_{14}^2$ and $\sin^22θ_{14}$. The method of coherent summation of measurement results allows to directly demonstrate the oscillation effect. We present the analysis of possible systematic errors and the MC model of the experiment, which considers the possibility of the effect manifestation at the present precision level. As a result of the analysis, we can conclude that at currently available statistical accuracy we observe the oscillations at the $2.9σ$ level with parameters $Δm_{14}^2=(7.3\pm0.13_{st}\pm1.16_{sys})\text{eV}^2 = (7.3\pm1.17)\text{eV}^2$ and $\sin^22θ_{14}= 0.36\pm0.12_{stat}(2.9σ)$. Monte Carlo based statistical analysis gave estimation of confidence level at $2.7σ$. We plan to improve the currently working experimental setup and create a completely new setup in order to increase the accuracy of the experiment by 3 times. We also provide a brief analysis of the general experimental situation in the search for sterile neutrinos.

description: Four field experiments were conducted in 1983 and 1984 at the Fortuna Research and Development Center, Juana Diaz Puerto Rice to determine the economic threshold of pigweed (Amaranthus dubius); jungle rice (Echinochloa colonum) and horse purslane (Trianthema portulacastrum} and their critical period of competition in drip irrigated tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill, var. Duke). Tomato seedlings were 28 days old at transplanting. In the economic threshold study, weed populations were adjusted to 2, 5, 10,20,40 and 80 plants m-2. In the critical period study, mixed weeds were allowed to compete for 0, 12, 24, 36, 48 or 60 days after transplanting and then were kept weed-free until harvest. The economic threshold was found to be 5 plants m-2 for pigweed; 401 plants m-2 for jungle rice; and 20 plants m-2 for horse purslane. This result suggests that pigweed would cause the greatest economic loss to vegetable growers. Pigweed was followed by horse purslane and jungle rice in descending order of causing economic losses. The critical period of weed competition was determined to be 0 to 36 days in 1983 and 0 to 48 days in 1984. ----- Cuatro investigaciones del campo fueron conducidos en 1983 y 1984 en el Fortuna Research and Development Center, Juana Dlaz, Puerto Rico, para determinar los niveles econdmicos de Amaranthus dubius, Echinochloa cotonum, Trianthema portu/acastrum y sus periods crIticos de competicion en tomate [Lvcopersicon esculentum Mill.

description: Many active ingredients were tested against weeds in onion crops. The trials evaluated different cultural practices. In intensive cultivation of vegetable crops, the results indicate the use of a nursery, with chemical weeding - propachlor + ethofumesate as pre-emergence, and propachlor as post-emergence. After transplantation, the use of other chemicals· nitrofene, oxadiazon, ioxynil - allows production of fresh bulbs in good condition. ----- Plusieurs matières actives sont testées contre les adventices dans les cultures d'oignons. Les essais sont faits suivant diffé"rentes mé'thodes de culture. En culture intensive marafchère, les tendances sont l'utilisation d'une pé'pinière avec désherbage chimique - propachlore + ethofumesate en prt!lev~e et propachlore en post-levée. Après transplantation, l'utilisation d'autres produits chimiques - nitrotêne, oxadiazon, ioxynil - permettent d'avoir une production en bonnes conditions de bulbes frais.

description: The cluster of galaxies A754 undergoes a merger of several large structural units. X-ray observations show a nonequilibrium state of the central part of the cluster, in which a cloud of cold plasma 500 kpc in size was identified amid the hotter cluster gas. The X-ray image of A754 exhibits a brightness discontinuity, which can be interpreted as a shock wave in front of a moving cloud of dense gas. The shock parameters are determined from the jump in intergalactic gas density using the ROSAT image. The estimated Mach number is M=1.71^{+0.45}_{-0.24} at a 68% confidence level.

description: First the title could be also understood as ``3-manifolds related by non-zero degree maps" or "Degrees of maps between 3-manifolds" for some aspects in this survey talk. The topology of surfaces was completely understood at the end of 19th century, but maps between surfaces kept to be an active topic in the 20th century and many important results just appeared in the last 25 years. The topology of 3-manifolds was well-understood only in the later 20th century, and the topic of non-zero degree maps between 3-manifolds becomes active only rather recently. We will survey questions and results in the topic indicated by the title, present its relations to 3-manifold topology and its applications to problems in geometry group theory, fixed point theory and dynamics. There are four aspects addressed: (1) Results concerning the existence and finiteness about the maps of non-zero degree (in particular of degree one) between 3-manifolds and their suitable correspondence about epimorphisms on knot groups and 3-manifold groups. (2) A measurement of the topological complexity on 3-manifolds and knots given by "degree one map partial order", and the interactions between the studies of non-zero degree map among 3-manifolds and of topology of 3-manifolds. (3) The standard forms of non-zero degree maps and automorphisms on 3-manifolds and applications to minimizing the fixed points in the isotopy class. (4) The uniqueness of the covering degrees between 3-manifolds and the uniqueness embedding indices (in particular the co-Hopfian property) between Kleinian groups. The methods used are varied, and we try to describe them briefly.
title: Edmund Jones Yr 'Hen Broffwyd' (1702-1793): Gweinidog, Hanesydd, Ysbrydegydd (Edmund Jones 'The Old Prophet 1702-1793: Minister, Histroian, Spiritist)

description: This thesis is a study of the life and work of Edmund Jones, one of the leading dissenters and Independents of the eighteenth century. The first chapter, the introduction, discusses the reasons why Edmund Jones was ignored in the past, and argues that he was in fact an important figure in the eighteenth century and deserves proper recognition by historians. In the second chapter we have an overview of Edmund Jones's life in general. His background in Monmouthshire and the influences on his life are considered. The third chapter concentrates on Edmund Jones as a religious figure. His importance as a minister and preacher and his activity in Independency are analysed. Also, the substantial library Edmund Jones compiled during his lifetime and his relationships with other denominations, such as the Methodist and Baptists, are discussed. The fourth chapter considers Edmund Jones's contribution as a historian and naturalist. The main focus of this chapter is the book Edmund Jones wrote about Aberystruth, his native parish A Geographical, Historical and Religious Account of the Parish of Aberystruth in the County of Monmouth [17791. Also, Edmund Jones cultivated an interest in botanical medicine and so attention is here given to the manuscript he wrote on the religious meaning of plants 'A Spiritual Botanology' [17801. The subject of the fifth chapter is Edmund Jones 'the Old Prophet'. Edmund Jones believed unshakably in the existence of spirits and in the supernatural. This chapter is based on his best known book A Relation of Apparitions of Spirits in the Principality of Wales [17801. In the last chapter, the conclusion, Edmund Jones's contribution as a religious figure and author are analysed. It reveals that Edmund Jones's indefatigable life's work for his cause indeed needs to be recognised by historians. The argument of this thesis is to restore Edmund Jones's place within the history of the period, not only within congregationalism and religion but within Welsh history itself in the eighteenth century. This is argued on the basis of the immense value of Edmund Jones's productions to help historians to understand popular religion on and culture.

description: The rise of graph analytic systems has created a need for new ways to measure and compare the capabilities of graph processing systems. The MIT/Amazon/IEEE Graph Challenge has been developed to provide a well-defined community venue for stimulating research and highlighting innovations in graph analysis software, hardware, algorithms, and systems. GraphChallenge.org provides a wide range of pre-parsed graph data sets, graph generators, mathematically defined graph algorithms, example serial implementations in a variety of languages, and specific metrics for measuring performance. The triangle counting component of GraphChallenge.org tests the performance of graph processing systems to count all the triangles in a graph and exercises key graph operations found in many graph algorithms. In 2017, 2018, and 2019 many triangle counting submissions were received from a wide range of authors and organizations. This paper presents a performance analysis of the best performers of these submissions. These submissions show that their state-of-the-art triangle counting execution time, $T_{\rm tri}$, is a strong function of the number of edges in the graph, $N_e$, which improved significantly from 2017 ($T_{\rm tri} \approx (N_e/10^8)^{4/3}$) to 2018 ($T_{\rm tri} \approx N_e/10^9$) and remained comparable from 2018 to 2019. Graph Challenge provides a clear picture of current graph analysis systems and underscores the need for new innovations to achieve high performance on very large graphs.
