New and noteworthy lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi, 12

Seven species new to science are described, illustrated and compared with closely related taxa. Of them, one species, i.e.: Coppinsidea vernadskiensis S. Y. Kondr., T. O. Kondratiuk et I. Yu. Parnikoza is from the Argentine Islands, Western Maritime Antarctic Peninsula, Jacke lixia hosseussii S. Y. Kondr., L. Lőkös et J.-S. Hur, from South America (Argentina and Uruguay), Loekoeslaszloa reducta YoSeven species new to science are described, illustrated and compared with closely related taxa.

Quantitative properties of the creation and activation of a cell-intrinsic duration-encoding engram

The engram encoding the interval between the conditional stimulus (CS) and the unconditional stimulus (US) in eyeblink conditioning resides within a small population of cerebellar Purkinje cells. CSs activate this engram to produce a pause in the spontaneous firing rate of the cell, which times the CS-conditional blink. We developed a Bayesian algorithm that finds pause onsets and offsets in the r

Gender Transculturation : Navigating Market-Mediated Contesting Gender Ideologies in Consumer Acculturation

In this book, I advance the concept of gender transculturation to illustrate how migrant consumers navigate contesting gender ideologies in their host cultural marketplace. Taking a consumer cultural theoretical perspective, the study lies in the nexus of and unpacks an alternative understanding in the current research frontier of consumer acculturation, gender and ideologies. Acculturation of imm

What the latest science on climate change mitigation means for cities and urban areas

The Summary for Urban Policymakers (SUP) initiative provides a distillation of the IPCC reports into accessible and targeted summaries that can help inform action at city and regional scales. Volume I in the series, What the Latest Physical Science of Climate Change Means for Cities, identified the ways in which human-induced climate change is affecting every region of the world, and the cities an

Co-regulation of temperature and moisture in the irrigated agricultural ecosystem productivity

Agroecosystem photosynthesis is key to coping with global climate change. In farmland where human activities are highly involved, the interaction between environmental factors and their influences on gross primary productivity (GPP) are insufficiently understood. Particularly, the irrigation and mulching in water-saving agriculture can alter the crop responses to environmental change. Based on edd

Water use efficiency control for a maize field under mulched drip irrigation

Agricultural ecosystem water use efficiency (WUE) is an important indicator reflecting carbon-water coupling, but its control mechanisms in managed fields remain unclear. In order to reveal the influencing factors of WUE in the agricultural field under mulched drip irrigation (DM), we carried out the 8-year continuous observations in a maize field from Northwestern China. The structural equation m

Modeling nitrous oxide emissions from agricultural soil incubation experiments using CoupModel

Efforts to develop effective climate mitigation strategies for agriculture require methods to estimate nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from soil. Process-based biogeochemical models have been often used for field- and large-scale estimates, while the sensitivity and uncertainty of model applications to incubation experiments are less investigated. In this study, a process-oriented model (CoupModel)

A facile process for adipic acid production in high yield by oxidation of 1,6-hexanediol using the resting cells of Gluconobacter oxydans

Background: Adipic acid (AA) is one of the most important industrial chemicals used mainly for the production of Nylon 6,6 but also for making polyurethanes, plasticizers, and unsaturated polyester resins, and more recently as a component in the biodegradable polyester poly(butylene adipate terephthalate) (PBAT). The main route for AA production utilizes benzene as feedstock and generates copious

Estimating the Length of the Preclinical Detectable Phase for Open-Angle Glaucoma

IMPORTANCE: A 50% reduction of glaucoma-related blindness has previously been demonstrated in a population that was screened for open-angle glaucoma. Ongoing screening trials of high-risk populations and forthcoming low-cost screening methods suggest that such screening may become more common in the future. One would then need to estimate a key component of the natural history of chronic disease,

Negotiating organisational and professional feeling rules: : On digital documentation and emotions in child protection social work

This article explores the emotional challenges of digital documentation practices in child protection social work. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in Swedish social services, it explores how social workers negotiate organisational and professional feeling rules when performing child protection investigations using a digital documentation-based structure.

Skadeståndsansvar för juridisk rådgivning

Professionell juridisk rådgivning kräver att rådgivaren gör prognoser om vilka beslut som domstolar eller andra myndigheter kommer att fatta, om klienten väljer att agera på olika sätt. Rådgivaren har både ett fackmässig­hetsansvar och ett upplysningsansvar. Artikeln uppmärksammar ett nytt prejudikat ("Skatterådgivarens ansvarsbegränsning") som bl.a. illustrerar att upplysningsansvaret är långt­gå
