title: Design, synthesis of new pyrimidine derivatives as anticancer and antimicrobial agents

description: A new series of 6-aryl-5-cyano thiouracil derivatives were synthesized. Cyanouracil <b>1</b> was condensed with monochloroacetic acid and different aldehydes to give thiazolopyrimidine <b>2</b>. On the other hand, treatment of cyanouracil <b>1</b> with 2-chloro-<i>N</i>-substituted-phenylac etamide afforded <b>4</b>. Hydrazinolysis of <b>6</b> afforded the hydrazino derivatives <b>7</b> which upon reaction with different electrophilic reagents such as acetic anhydride, benzoyl chloride, and carbon disulfide yielded pyrimidine derivatives <b>8</b>–<b>15</b>. Some of the new derivatives were explored for their antimicrobial activities. Compounds <b>7</b> and <b>9</b> have a promising activity, relatively equipotent to the reference drug. All of the new synthesized compounds were tested <i>in vitro</i> for their antiproliferative activities against HePG-2 and MCF-7 cell lines. Compounds <b>7</b>, <b>9</b>, and <b>2d</b> displayed potent growth inhibitory effect toward the two cell lines more than the standard drug 5-FU. Furthermore, a docking study of the most active compounds was performed with thymidylate synthase enzyme.

title: The Kalochori Accelerometric Network (KAN), database and Web-GIS portal

description: The Kalochori Accelerometric Network (KAN) operates since 2013 in the broader urban area of Kalochori, west of Thessaloniki in Northern Greece. KAN is composed of seven accelerometric stations within a limited monitoring area, referring to three ground stations installed in distinct urban zones (residential, industrial and tanks zone), three stations on top of a selected structure within each urban zone and one free-field station on ground surface away from the built environment. All the accelerometric stations are documented with installation and operating features, main structural properties of the instrumented structures, geotechnical data and a EC8-based characterization of soil. The data linked to this DOI refer to seventy eight (78) earthquakes that have been recorded by KAN during the period of 01/16/2014 to 12/31/2016. The complete datasets including stations monographs, processed acceleration recordings and metadata of the recorded earthquakes are available online through the Web-GIS platform http://apollo.itsak.gr/apollo-portal/ApolloPro.aspx for future updates. The above online platform is maintained and updated as part of the recently-completed project INDES-MUSA (http://www.indes-musa.gr/en/). <br>

title: Multi-objective forest management under risk by exploring Pareto frontier

description: This study focuses on developing an explicit multiple-objective forest management model to examine the interactions of timber production <br>and biodiversity as well as net carbon sequestration in a forest ecosystem under fire risk. The multi-objective optimization approach used here <br>is based on the concept of Pareto optimality, and on computing the Pareto frontier (the set of non-dominated solutions), instead of a single solution. <br>This problem of forest management under risk is modelled as Markov Decision Processes (MDP), and evaluations of the different functions of the forest are <br>simultaneously considered by building Pareto fronts. <br>The MDP framework is applied to the management of a private forest located in southwestern France. <br>We identify (i) ``optimal'' forest management practices for each objective separately and (ii) trade-off policies considering all objectives jointly.

title: Test–retest reliability of the N400 component in a sentence-reading paradigm

description: The N400 component of the event-related potential is considered an index of semantic processing and therefore may be an ideal biomarker of semantic system disorders or individual differences. To this purpose, it is necessary to assess its test–retest reliability. Only one previous study has addressed this question, reporting good test–retest reliability (<i>r</i> = 0.85). However, that study had used a word-pair priming paradigm, which differs in many respects from the more typical and ecologically valid sentence-reading. The present study surveys test–retest reliability of the N400 in a sentence-reading paradigm. The best value obtained was <i>r</i> = 0.63, implying a relatively poor test–retest reliability. Crucial factors for this result may be the long interval between context and critical word as well as more complex contexts in sentence-reading paradigms. These factors might make the N400 effects in sentences more vulnerable to linguistic and non-linguistic factors increasing the variance across sessions.

title: Ventral-aspect radar cross sections and polarization patterns of insects at X band and their relation to size and form

description: A data set of ventral-aspect insect radar cross-sections (RCSs) and polarization patterns, measured at X band (9.4 GHz, linear polarization) in laboratory rigs, has been collated from a number of sources. The data have been analysed to identify relationships between RCS parameters (one representing size and two the polarization-pattern shape) and the insects’ masses and morphological dimensions and forms. An improved mass-estimation relationship, with appropriate asymptotes for very small and very large insects, is presented. This relationship draws only on the RCS size parameter and it is shown that incorporating one or both of the RCS shape parameters provides little additional benefit. Small insects have polarization-pattern shapes that fall within a relatively limited region of the range of parameter values allowed by electromagnetic scattering theory. Larger insects have shapes that extend beyond this region, following a broad trajectory as size and mass increases; at masses above ~0.6 g, the pattern becomes ‘perpendicular’, with maxima when the E-field is orthogonal to the body axis rather than parallel to it. RCS shape can be used to infer morphological form for small insects (&lt;80 mg), but not for larger ones. These results are consistent with observations from X-band vertical-beam entomological radars and provide a basis for identification, at least to broad taxon classes, of the targets detected by such radars.

title: Benchmarking technical and cost factors in forest felling and processing operations in different global regions during the period 2013–2014

description: In a global bioeconomy, benchmarking costs is essential in the evaluation of current forest harvesting systems and addressing decisions on the most efficient supply chains for available forest resources. Benchmarking cost rates in forestry is challenging, due to a lack of harmonized terminology and difficulties in collecting information on comparable forest technologies. This study provides a first-time series of cost factors to be used when modeling and evaluating the cost competitiveness of forest felling and processing operations on a global scale. It is based on an expert survey using a standardized method of data collection. This benchmarking identifies and updates the knowledge of technical and socio-economic factors capable of influencing the cost rates of forest felling and processing operations across different regions. This study is expected to act as a reference for larger investigations, and for regular updates, with the aim to provide current data that can be used by forest practitioners and decision makers for improving their cost efficiency and for designing future supply systems more effectively.
