description: As marine heatwaves (MHWs) become a growing concern for marine ecosystems, an effective ecosystem management necessitates precise monitoring of such periods with exceptionally high water temperatures. As satellite-based temperature measurements do not reach beyond the sea surface, identifying subsurface MHWs has so far relied on lower-resolution data obtained from (autonomous) in-situ measurements. In this study, we assess to which extent subsurface MHWs, defined statically by a seasonally varying 90th percentile, can be deduced from surface properties that can be remotely-sensed at a high spatio-temporal resolution. To this end, we build a Random Forest (RF) classification model with daily data from a high-resolution numerical hindcast simulation focused on the Eastern Pacific (1979-2019). The RF is trained to distinguish between extreme and non-extreme temperatures at the depth of the climatologically maximum mixed layer depth (MLD), i.e. a depth that is decoupled from the sea surface throughout most parts of the year. We train the RF on the first 80% of the hindcast simulation data (i.e., 1979-2011) and use a range of predictor variables, such as anomalies of sea surface temperature (SST), height (SSH) and salinity (SSS) as well as derivatives of these physical variables. Testing the model on the last 20% of the hindcast simulation (2012-2019), the RF correctly identifies more than two thirds of all subsurface extreme states, leaving only about 30% of subsurface extremes unidentified. Yet, of all RF-based subsurface extreme classifications, about 40% of subsurface temperatures are false positives. Nevertheless, the RF model outperforms a simple SST based extrapolation of extreme states into the ocean interior. The RF-based classification is mostly guided by SSH and SST anomalies (together reduce impurity by about 50%), followed by climate indices like the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (combined impurity reduction by 20%). This simulation-based study emphasizes the potential of exploring remote sensing data, particularly SST and SSH, to extend the monitoring of MHWs beneath the sea surface. Integrating this high-resolution statistical estimate with lower-resolution in-situ hydrographic information has the potential to make subsurface MHW monitoring a feasible and valuable tool for marine ecosystem management.

description: The crystal structure of hexagonal-Sr0.6Ba0.4MnO3 allows various competing superexchange interactions, leading to intriguing magnetic properties. Local structural changes modify overlapping between Mn and oxygen ions with temperature. Calculations based on our model spin-Hamiltonian reveal that the dominant linear antiferromagnetic superexchange interaction between the oxygen-linked Mn4+ ions results in short range correlations (SRC), manifesting a smooth drop in magnetization below 325K. Dominance of superexchange interaction changes its allegiance towards the non-linear oxygen-linked Mn-O-Mn interactions, onsetting long-range correlations (LRC) below 225K. Below the SRC-LRC crossover temperature, electrical response arising from the interacting dipoles exhibits power-law divergent behaviour of relaxation time, upon cooling. Non-ergodic character of the dipole-cluster glass state is examined via the indispensable aging and rejuvenation effects, similar to the spin glasses. Competitive-frustration among spin-exchange and local-strain is reckoned as responsible for the electrical glass origin.

description: Gut microbial community composition varies from one person to another. Potentially, this means the ecological interactions experienced by individual strains or species also vary among microbiomes of different people. However, testing this directly in human microbiomes and identifying associated ecological drivers is challenging. Here, we use replicated anaerobic microcosms to quantify variability of population growth for a key commensal species among microbiome samples from different individuals, and to identify underlying intra- and interspecific interactions. In a reciprocal transplant experiment, both absolute and relative growth perfomance of different Escherichia coli strains varied among gut microbiome samples from different healthy individuals. This was partly explained by intraspecific competition: ecological success of individual E. coli strains was associated with displacement of resident conspecifics. However, the determinants of E. coli growth varied among samples from different individuals. In one microbiome sample with a distinctive taxonomic composition, culture acidification by resident microbes impaired growth of all E. coli strains. These results suggest inter-individual microbiome variation is a key driver of susceptibility to colonisation by incoming bacteria, impacting the relative success of different strains and thereby helping to explain the structure and diversity of human microbiomes.

description: Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) play a key role in the functioning of terrestrial ecosystems. Anthropogenic land uses have a great impact on ecosystem processes and services. In this study, we estimated the diversity and composition of the AMF communities of five land use types, namely corn field, woodland, grassland, wetland and paddy field, in a new established campus of northeast China by MiSeq sequencing. Our results showed that the numbers of families and genera taxa in the dry lands (corn field, woodland and grassland) were more than in the water lands (wetland and paddy field). Paraglomus, Glomus and Claroideoglomus were the dominant genera in the five land use types. Grassland and woodland had higher AMF diversity compared with arable land and wetland. Non-metric multidimensional scaling ordination and permutational multivariate analysis of variance revealed significant difference in the AMF community composition among land use types. Canonical correspondence analysis indicated that the structural composition of the AMF communities was affected by soil pH, organic C, N and invertase activity. It was concluded that anthropogenic land uses altered AMF community composition, and returning arable land to woodland and grassland increased the diversity of AMF communities at 100-m scale in urban ecosystem.

description: While the Kepler Mission was designed to look at tens of thousands of faint stars (V > 12), brighter stars that saturated the detector are important because they can be and have been observed very accurately by other instruments. By analyzing the unsaturated scattered-light `halo' around these stars, we have retrieved precise light curves of most of the brightest stars in K2 fields from Campaign~4 onwards. The halo method does not depend on the detailed cause and form of systematics, and we show that it is effective at extracting light curves from both normal and saturated stars. The key methodology is to optimize the weights of a linear combination of pixel time series with respect to an objective function. We test a range of such objective functions, finding that lagged Total Variation, a generalization of Total Variation, performs well on both saturated and unsaturated K2 targets. Applying this to the bright stars across the K2 Campaigns reveals stellar variability ubiquitously, including effects of stellar pulsation, rotation, and binarity. We describe our pipeline and present a catalogue of the 161 bright stars, with classifications of their variability, asteroseismic parameters for red giants with well-measured solar-like oscillations, and remarks on interesting objects. These light curves are publicly available as a High Level Science Product from the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST).

description: In this study, we have assessed the economic impact of potential increase in supply reliability of irrigation water in the Hinds Plains Area in the Ashburton district. The Hinds catchment has a number of irrigation schemes namely, Rangitata Diversion Race (provides water for Mayfield Hinds and Valetta Schemes), Barrhill Chertsey, Eiffelton and Lynford Schemes. All these schemes have varying supply reliability which ranges from 40% to 80% approximately. First, we estimated the relationship between water availability and pasture growth using experimental data. We then employed this relationship to estimate the potential incremental pasture growth with assumed increased supply reliability (95%) at farm level. We estimated the farm level benefit of increased pasture production in terms of saved costs in supplementary feed. These farm level estimates were used to assess the catchment level farm income gain. The catchment level income gain was then employed to assess the regional level economic gain (GDP and employment) by the socio-accounting matrix input-output model (SAMI-O) simulation. Income gain at catchment level is estimated to vary from $16 to $17million. This implies an additional gain in regional level income (GDP) of $85 to $91million and additional employment of 137 FTE to 207 FTE. The study indicates the importance of an increase in irrigation efficiency at farm level for the local and regional economy and also discusses the potential environmental impacts of increase irrigation efficiency at catchment level.

description: Understanding the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in human-associated microbial communities, particularly in the gut microbiome, is critical for combating the global resistance crisis. However, the role of various ecological factors, such as intraspecies or interspecies interactions, in modulating this process is poorly understood. We hypothesized that different strains within the same species would exhibit distinct interactions with the resident microbiota, leading to variable invasion outcomes. To test this, we examined the population growth of multiple clinically relevant antibiotic-resistant E. coli strains carrying ESBL and carbapenemase resistance plasmids. We introduced these strains into human gut microbiome samples from healthy individuals, using replicated anaerobic microcosms treated or untreated with antibiotics. We found that while antibiotic exposure significantly influenced the growth of these incoming strains, some were successful even in the absence of antibiotics. The variation in ecological success across strain-microbiome sample combinations was positively associated with the intrinsic growth capacities of the strains in local abiotic conditions and their competitive interactions with resident E. coli. Furthermore, the incoming resistant strains had strain- specific effects on the taxonomic composition of the resident microbiota; different strains not only varied in their growth performance in human microbiomes, in some cases they pushed taxonomic composition of the resident community in different directions. In contrast with phenotypes measured in gut microcosms, metabolic profiles measured across various single-carbon-source environments were not reliable predictors of population growth in human microbiomes. Overall, this controlled design reveals the multi-layered ecological dynamics and strain-specific mechanisms that govern the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in individual human-associated microbiomes.

description: An industry thrives in an area because it has access to resources important for the production of its goods and services. Thus, the type of industrial specialization in an area is related to the natural and human resources there. Over half of the Nation's rural LMA's (labor market areas) are specialized in a single industry (that is, 10 percent or more of total employment is concentrated in one industry). A third of the specialized LMA's are agricultural and over a fourth specialize in public education and administration. Other industrial specializations of rural LMA's include mining, wood products, textiles and apparel, and durable manufacturing.

description: Despite the different levels of maturity of organic markets among the member states of the European Union (EU), the European organic food market is continuously growing. In the EU this production method is regulated according to the Council Regulation (EC) 834/2007 (EC 834/07). All products produced accordingly are labelled with the common European organic label. The future success of organic agriculture as one sustainable solution of food production is to a large extent dependent on its market success, thus the positioning of organic food is a crucial topic for food policy and marketing. This paper analyses the data of an online survey done in 2011 with a total of 1,180 consumers from four European countries (Germany, United Kingdom, Spain, and Czech Republic,) representing different stages of the current organic market development across Europe. This paper focusses on which criteria consumers attach to organic food products and what attributes they expect of them. The risk that consumers might expect too much of organic food produced under EC 834/07 is identified. To overcome the observed expectation gap, some political as well as practical implications are proposed.

description: We propose a scenario for particle-mass generation, assuming the existence of a physical regime where, firstly, physical particles can be considered as point-like objects moving in a background space-time and, secondly, their mere presence spoils the invariance under the local diffeomorphism group, resulting in an anomalous realization of the latter. Under these hypotheses, we describe mass generation starting from the massless free theory. The mechanism is not sensitive to the detailed description of the underlying theory at higher energies, leaning only on general structural features of it, specifically diffeomorphism invariance.

description: Analysis with the characteristic functional of stochastic motion is used for the gradient spin echo measurement of restricted motion to clarify details of the diffraction-like effect in a porous structure. It gives the diffusive diffraction as an interference of spin phase shifts due to the back-flow of spins bouncing at the boundaries, when mean displacement of scattered spins is equal to the spin phase grating prepared by applied magnetic field gradients. The diffraction patterns convey information about morphology of the surrounding media at times long enough that opposite boundaries are restricting displacements. The method explains the dependence of diffraction on the time and width of gradient pulses, as observed at the experiments and the simulations. It also enlightens the analysis of transport properties by the spin echo, particularly in systems, where the motion is restricted by structure or configuration.

description: The quantum robustness of fracton phases is investigated by studying the influence of quantum fluctuations on the X-Cube model and Haah's code, which realize a type-I and type-II fracton phase, respectively. To this end a finite uniform magnetic field is applied to induce quantum fluctuations in the fracton phase resulting in zero-temperature phase transitions between fracton phases and polarized phases. Using high-order series expansions and a variational approach, all phase transitions are classified as strongly first order, which turns out to be a consequence of the (partial) immobility of fracton excitations. Indeed, single fractons as well as few-fracton composites can hardly lower their excitation energy by delocalization due to the intriguing properties of fracton phases, as demonstrated in this work explicitly in terms of fracton quasi-particles.

description: The process of ion transport through a locust potassium channel is described by means of the Fokker-Planck equation (FPE). The deterministic and stochastic components of the process of switching between various conducting states of the channel are expressed by two coefficients, $D^{(1)}$ and $D^{(2)}$, a drift and a diffusion coefficient, respectively. The FPE leads to a Langevin equation. This analysis reveals beside the well known deterministic aspects a turbulent, cascade type of action. The (noisy-like) switching between different conducting states prevents the channel from staying in one, closed or open state. The similarity between the hydrodynamic flow in the turbulent regime and hierarchical switching between conducting states of this biochannel is discussed. A non-trivial character of $D^{(1)}$ and $D^{(2)}$ coefficients is shown, which points to different processes governing the channel's action, asymetrically depending on the history of the previously conducting states. Moreover, the Fokker-Planck and Langevin equations provide information on whether and how the statistics of the channel action change over various time scales.

description: Raw nanopore signal analysis is a common approach in genomics to provide fast and resource-efficient analysis without translating the signals to bases (i.e., without basecalling). However, existing solutions cannot interpret raw signals directly if a reference genome is unknown due to a lack of accurate mechanisms to handle increased noise in pairwise raw signal comparison. Our goal is to enable the direct analysis of raw signals without a reference genome. To this end, we propose Rawsamble, the first mechanism that can 1) identify regions of similarity between all raw signal pairs, known as all-vs-all overlapping, using a hash-based search mechanism and 2) use these to construct genomes from scratch, called de novo assembly.
Our extensive evaluations across multiple genomes of varying sizes show that Rawsamble provides a significant speedup (on average by 16.36x and up to 41.59x) and reduces peak memory usage (on average by 11.73x and up to by 41.99x) compared to a conventional genome assembly pipeline using the state-of-the-art tools for basecalling (Dorado's fastest mode) and overlapping (minimap2) on a CPU. We find that 36.57% of overlapping pairs generated by Rawsamble are identical to those generated by minimap2. Using the overlaps from Rawsamble, we construct the first de novo assemblies directly from raw signals without basecalling. We show that we can construct contiguous assembly segments (unitigs) up to 2.7 million bases in length (half the genome length of E. coli). We identify previously unexplored directions that can be enabled by finding overlaps and constructing de novo assemblies.

description: To date, prices of gas and other energy used by households in Ukraine have been generously subsidized by the Government. However, suppressed energy prices lead to excessive use of gas and an inefficient level of investment into energy savings. In addition, Ukraine’s dependence on imported gas contributes to trade imbalances and growing pressure on the devaluation of the national currency. Thus, the issue of raising gas prices remains critical for the population of Ukraine. In particular, this step was also envisaged in an ambitious reform agenda announced in mid-2010 aimed at restoring stable and high economic growth. However, this policy may have an unprecedented impact on the welfare of population. This paper presents the main findings from the simulation of gas price shocks, provides an overview of social support programs in Ukraine and analyses their efficiency. Based on the analyses, the paper draws two major conclusions. First, increases in gas prices result in welfare losses in all household categories, with a more profound impact on urban households. Second, the current social welfare programs are not very efficient in targeting the poorest households. Reform of the social welfare system is thus required to ensure a safety net for poor households in times of gas price hikes. In order to assist national decisionmakers in solving these issues the paper presents general policy recommendations.

description: Plants are constantly challenged by pathogens, which can cause substantial yield losses. The aggressiveness of and damage by pathogens depends on the host-associated microbiome, which might be shaped by plant genetics to improve resistance. How different crop genotypes modulate their microbiota when challenged by a complex of pathogens is largely unknown. Here, we investigate if and how pea (Pisum sativum L.) genotypes shape their root microbiota upon challenge by soil-borne pathogens and how this relates to a genotype’s resistance. Building on the phenotyping efforts of 252 pea genotypes grown in naturally infested soil, we characterized root fungi and bacteria by ITS region and 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, respectively. Pea genotype markedly affected both fungal and bacterial community composition, and these genotype-specific microbiota were associated with root rot resistance. For example, genotype resistance was correlated (R2 = 19%) with root fungal community composition. Further, several key microbes, showing a high relative abundance, heritability, connectedness with other microbes, and correlation with plant resistance, were identified. Our findings highlight the importance of crop genotype-specific root microbiota under root rot stress and the potential of the plant to shape its associated microbiota as a second line of defense.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: It is twenty years since the precautionary principle appeared on the normative scene, first for matters of environment and natural resources, then for questions of food safety and public health. It is fifteen years since GMOs were set on the public regulation agenda because of their potential risks for Health and Environment. Specific mechanisms of expertise and assessment have been set within the framework of authorisation procedures considering their cultivation. Research in Social Science has accompanied this public interest for risks, whether scientists have been puzzled by the arisen stakes of assessment and regulation, attracted by controversies and conflicts or approached in order to help public and private deciders to better understand society problems and reactions. Scientists from INRA or partners have contributed to these works. A selection of their problematic and results is presented in this file. These contributions have inspired me different thoughts for the future. Scientists, officials in charge of scientific policy and members of the civil society may find here ideas for propositions to be debated for the continuation of research.
Aspects of gauged R-symmetry in SU(1,1)/U(1) supergravity

description: We propose a novel realization of spontaneous supersymmetry breaking in de Sitter vacuum by F- and D-terms in $N=1$ four-dimensional supergravity coupled to a chiral superfield with $SU(1,1)/U(1)$ target space. Our construction features gauged $U(1)_R$ symmetry rotating the chiral scalar field by a phase. Both SUSY and R-symmetry can be spontaneously broken, and for two particular parameter choices we obtain no-scale supergravity with positive tunable cosmological constant.

description: Public quality labels are used to point out specific market segmentations: land, Bio, and taste quality. Their success in the retail industry prompts stores to use them as part of their own brand range. The food-processing industries fear that producing them as stores’ own brands could run down their image. This paper shows, by analysing 6 products, that the supermarkets strategy is not to undercut the official quality brand names.

description: The present work applies several advanced spectral methods to the analysis of macroeconomic fluctuations in three countries of the European Union: Italy, The Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. We focus here in particular on singular-spectrum analysis (SSA), which provides valuable spatial and frequency information of multivariate data and that goes far beyond a pure analysis in the time domain. The spectral methods discussed here are well established in the geosciences and life sciences, but not yet widespread in quantitative economics. In particular, they enable one to identify and describe nonlinear trends and dominant cycles | including seasonal and interannual components that characterize the deterministic behavior of each time series. These tools have already proven their robustness in the application on short and noisy data, and we demonstrate their usefulness in the analysis of the macroeconomic indicators of these three countries. We explore several fundamental indicators of the countries' real aggregate economy in a univariate, as well as a multivariate setting. Starting with individual single-channel analysis, we are able to identify similar spectral components among the analyzed indicators. Next, we consider combinations of indicators and countries, in order to take different effects of comovements into account. Since business cycles are cross-national phenomena, which show common characteristics across countries, our aim is to uncover hidden global behavior across the European economies. Results are compared with previous findings on the U.S. indicators (Groth et al., 2012). Finally, the analysis is extended to include several indicators from the U.S. economy, in order to examine its influence on the European market.
