A new rupicolous gecko from the Hemidactylus brookii complex is described from the forests and plateaus of Amboli, in the Western Ghats of Maharashtra. This medium sized (average adult SVL 56.2±5.0 to at least 62 mm), nocturnal species is superficially similar to other congeners from the ‘H. brookii’ clade, but can be distinguished from them in having 17 or 18 fairly regular longitudinal rows of enlarged, conical, keeled tubercles at midbody, extending from posterior part of the head to groin; tubercles in parasagittal rows smaller, feebly keeled and more rounded; approximately six rows of tubercles on either side of parasagittal tubercle rows, highly enlarged, remarkably conical and strongly keeled; lamellae divided in a straight transverse series—seven or eight lamellae beneath fourth digit (manus and pes) and five or six beneath first digit (manus and pes). Males with nine or ten (rarely eight) femoral pores separated by four or five poreless scales; supralabials 11–13; infralabials 8–11. Molecular data based on the mitochondrial ND2 gene supports the distinctiveness of this species and helps ascertain its phylogenetic position within the ‘H. brookii’ group of the Indian Hemidactylus radiation.

We describe a new species of Hemidactylus based on an integrative taxonomic framework from scrub habitats at the southern tip of India, in Thoothukudi District, Tamil Nadu. The new species has the most densely packed tubercles among Indian Hemidactylus, almost resembling the most tuberculate Indian Cyrtopodion. Hemidactylus quartziticolussp. nov. is phylogenetically placed within the brookii group of Indian Hemidactylus, where it is sister to the H. gleadowi complex from western-central India. The new species is 14.5–23.7% divergent in ND2 mitochondrial sequence data from other brookii group members, and can be easily diagnosed from regional congeners by its unique dorsal scalation, the number and arrangement of precloacal-femoral pores, the number of dorsal tubercle rows at midbody, number of lamellae under digit I and IV of manus and pes. The new species is currently known only from two isolated, low quartzite hillocks 45 km apart with scrubby, thorn forests and loose, stony soil.

The brookite-phase TiO2 was prepared by a hydrothermal synthesis of titanium chloride solution. The thermolysis time and the pH value of the solution were controlled during the synthesis. X-ray diffraction experiments showed that TiO2 powders partially containing the brookite-phase were successfully obtained. A higher amount of OH- in the reaction solution was found to be important to obtain the brookite phase because the intermediate complex leading to the brookite phase consumes more amount of OH- than other phases like the rutile.

In the nature, larvae living in watercourses are exposed to a complex system of environmental influences. It is known that different watercourse types (creeks, brooks, streams, little rivers and medial rivers) provide different conditions for larval development (water depth, flow rate, temperature, oxygen content, substrate type, nutrient supply, etc.). These conditions can vary significantly between watercourse types, but be very similar within types. In this work, we examined the body sizes and wing morphometric characteristics of males of Calopteryx splendens reared from different watercourse types (brook, stream, creek, little river, medial river). Although there were no significant differences in body size among watercourse types, we found significant differences in the wing features. We found the most differences between the individuals reared from streams and creeks and between the individuals reared from stream and medial river. Our results show that the individuals reared from different watercourse types were clearly separated on the two wings. The results also suggest that there are significant differences in the number and pattern of allometric features on the wings of individuals reared from different watercourse types.

The new micro-dolichopodid genus Hurleyella and two new species, H. cumberlandensis and H. brooksi are described from the Nearctic. Hurleyella resembles the subfamily Medeterinae in having the legs bare of major setae, a depressed posterior mesonotum, and concave dorsal postcranium, but the complex male genitalia is unlike the relatively simple structure of traditional Medeterinae (e.g., Medetera, Thrypyicus, Corindia, etc.). Until the relationship of Hurleyella to other genera can be determined, and the limits of dolichopodid subfamilies refined, it should be considered as incertae sedis.

This paper reflects on a seminal work in the history of AI and representation: Rodney Brooks’ 1991 paper Intelligence without representation. Brooks advocated the removal of explicit representations and engineered environments from the domain of his robotic intelligence experimentation, in favour of an evolutionary-inspired approach using layers of reactive behaviour that operated independently of each other. Brooks criticised the current progress in AI research and believed that removing complex representation from AI would help address problematic areas in modelling the mind. His belief was that we should develop artificial intelligence by being guided by the evolutionary development of our own intelligence and that his approach mirrored how our own intelligence functions. Thus, the field of behaviour-based robotics emerged. This paper offers a historical analysis of Brooks’ behaviour-based robotics approach and its impact on artificial intelligence and cognitive theory at the time, as well as on modern-day approaches to AI.

This thesis is about general purpose computing on the graphics processor. The reason why this is important is because of the performance advantages that can be achieved in ordinary applications by using the GPUs programmability and performance. The problem investigated is the use of a complex data-structure, namely linked lists, and what their possible benefits are when run on the GPU. I also wanted to investigate if it was viable to implement a complex data-structure on a GPU. Implementations was made of the linked list both on the GPU and on the CPU and then measurements of the performance of doing different linked list operations was conducted. Also tests was made to measure the quality of the output. I was surprised to see that the GPU performed bad when compared to the CPU on all of the linked-list operations but the quality testing showed that the GPUs and CPUs output were the same. Testing of what parts of the GPU application that caused the bad performance showed that it was the initiation of the application. I also found out that it was not that hard to learn how to program applications for the GPU except for when learning the new programming model. To conclude it can be said that my first investigation showed that linked lists does not run faster on the GPU than on the CPU but the quality is sufficient. My second investigation about the viability to use data-structures on the GPU showed that it was much easier than I expected and therefore viable if you can tolerate the bad performance.

Membros do gênero Rhinebothroides são parasitas exclusivos de potamotrigonídeos, elasmobrânquios de água doce endêmicos da região Neotropical. Atualmente, seis espécies são reconhecidas para este gênero dentre as oito espécies nominais disponíveis. A taxonomia de Rhinebothroides é convoluta, pois a maioria de suas espécies são diagnosticadas por caracteres morfométricos e merísticos definidos por estudos que desconsideram a variabilidade intraespecífica destas linhagens. A ampla distribuição de algumas espécies, bem como seus padrões generalistas de especificidade padrão este discrepante em relação à tetrafilídeos marinhos sugere a existência de complexos de espécies que requerem melhor refinamento taxonômico. Este estudo visa refinar a taxonomia de um destes complexos Rhinebothroides freitasi, no qual estão inseridas outras 3 especies nominais (R. campbelli, R. circularisi, R. venezuelensis) cujas circunscrições são ambíguas. Neste estudo, partiuse da premissa de que a conjunção de dados moleculares e morfológicos pode elucidar a taxonomia deste complexo. Com este objetivo, dados moleculares para os genes 28S, ITS1 e COI foram compilados para 57 haplótipos de Rhinebothroides representando todas as espécies válidas para o gênero e a ampla distribuição biogeográfica no gênero nas bacias hidrográficas brasileiras. A otimização direta das sequências nucleotídicas destes haplótipos concatenadas com outros 26 terminais que incluem linhagens de tetrafilídeos marinhos e de água doce, resultou em cinco clados de Rhinebothroides que possuem morfologia congruente com a série tipo de cinco espécies nominais. Desta forma, este estudo reconhece cinco espécies de Rhinebothroides como válidas: R. glandularis, R. freitasi, R. moralarai, R. scorzai e R. venezuelensis. Dentre as espécies do complexo R. freitasi, os dados morfológicos compilados para ~ 400 indivíduos permitiu delimitar os níveis de variabilidade morfológica de R. freitasi e R. venezuelensis. A representatividade biogeográfica e de hospedeiros contemplada neste estudo revela que, ao contrário das linhagens de tetrafilídeos marinhos, membros de Rhinebothroides possuem baixa especificidade aos seus hospedeiros.Members of Rhinebothroides are parasites of the Neotropical freshwater stingrays of the family Potamotrygonidae. To date, six species are recognized for the genus within which there are eight nominal species available. The taxonomy of Rhinebothroides is confusing, since most of its species are currently diagnosed by morphometric and meristic characters that have been defined by studies that disregarded the intraspecific variability of its lineages. The widespread distribution of some species, as well as their relaxed host specificity pattern which differs from what has been documented for marine tetraphyllideans suggests the existence of species complexes that require taxonomic refinement. This study aims at refining the taxonomy of one of these complexes Rhinebothroides freitasi, in which are included other three nominal species (R. campbelli, R. circularisi, R. venezuelensis) circumscribed ambiguously. In this study, it has been assumed that the combination of molecular and morphological data can shed some light on the taxonomic status of this complex. Within this framework, molecular data were compiled for 28S, ITS1, and COI for 57 haplotypes of Rhinebothroides representing all currently valid species within the genus and their biogeographical distribution along the major Brazilian river basins. The direct optimization of nucleotide sequences from these haplotypes, simultaneously analised with 26 terminals which included marine and freshwater lineages of tetraphyllideans, generated a phylogenetic hypothesis that recognized five major clades within Rhinebothroides. Each of these clades are morphologically congruent with the type series of five nominal species. Therefore, this study recognizes five valid species within Rhinebothroides: R. glandularis, R. freitasi, R. moralarai, R. scorzai, and R. venezuelensis. Within the R. freitasi complex, the compiled morphological data for ~ 400 specimens provided a robust assessment of intraspecific variability for R. freitasi and R. venezuelensis. The biogeographic and host extensive sampling available for this study reveals that members of Rhinebothroides show low host specificity, as opposed to the marine tetraphyllidean lineages.

Understanding the patterns and processes generating biodiversity is fundamental to ecology and evolutionary biology, and studying diversification can give us key insights into this process. In my thesis, I investigate diversification patterns of lineage and morphology to understand the underlying climatic processes that have shaped these patterns. Peninsular India provides an exciting historical context to study diversification. The first chapter gives a brief introduction to the framework used to study lineage and morphological diversification, climate and geological history of Peninsular India, and the model system used in this thesis. Hemidactylus geckos— commonly called ‘house geckos’— are found in a wide range of habitats and climatic zones, and are an excellent model system to address this question. However, given the dearth of studies in the tropics, especially the dry zone of Peninsular India, a large proportion of the diversity is undescribed. Therefore, the first task was to carry out systematic sampling accompanied by species delimitation, before addressing questions regarding diversification in this group.
Molecular data are increasingly being used to resolve cryptic species complexes; however, subsequent formal species description and taxonomic revisions often remain incomplete. Given that most species are described based on morphology-based alpha taxonomy, one cannot resolve nomenclatural issues of species complexes without the aid of morphology. In the second chapter, I aim to resolve the taxonomic status of a long-known human commensal and cryptic species complex— Hemidactylus brookii. Based on samples collected opportunistically across India, I analysed molecular as well as morphological data. While the molecular data resulted in identification of genetically distinct clades, morphological data yielded evidence to support clades retrieved by molecular data. Based on morphological data available on synonyms, the nomenclatural issues as well as taxonomic status of these species were resolved. The study also revealed that the H. brookii complex in India includes two commensal species, H. parvimaculatus and H. murrayi.
Furthermore, these two lineages have independently acquired adaptations that could have assisted them in exploiting human habitat.
The third chapter focuses on the larger Indian radiation, and has three broad sections –
1. Species delimitation using multispecies coalescent based approach. 2. Pattern of lineage diversification and 3. Pattern of morphological diversification. I delimit 40 putative species within the Indian radiation which is over 30% increase in diversity in this group. These lineages were then used for further analysis. With regard to the pattern of diversification, I found an early-burst in lineage accumulation. To understand if this radiation exhibits ecomorphs, based on habitat preferences we catagorised these geckos into four groups— terrestrial, rupicolous, arboreal and human commensal geckos. However, morphological data revealed presence of two broad ecomorphs— terrestrial geckos and scansorial geckos (consisting of rupicolous, arboreal and human commensal species). I also found that there was a delayed accumulation of disparity in morphology, which occurred ~15 Million years ago (Ma).
In the fourth chapter, I investigate the possible role of climate in generating these patterns of lineage and morphological diversification. Previous studies suggest that Hemidactylus dispersed into India after the Indian plate collided with Asia around 45 Ma. This lineage then underwent rapid radiation between 44 to 31 Ma, which coincides with the Eocene-Oligocene cooling. The Eocene-Oligocene cooling is purported to have led to extinction of several tropical rainforest flora and coincides with the appearance of drier forms. Given that species in the Indian radiation are distributed in the dry as well as wet zone, using ancestral trait reconstruction I demonstrate that the ancestor of this radiation was a dry zone adapted species. Therefore, I propose that this global cooling, which resulted in drier environment, might have provided numerous unoccupied niches for the recently dispersed Hemidactylus lineage to exploit. This scenario was supported by the early burst in lineage accumulation seen in this group. Interestingly morphological disparity did not track the trend in lineage diversification over time, with much of the disparity accumulating after 15 Ma. To understand the drivers of this pattern, ancestral state reconstruction of scansorial and terrestrial geckos was carried out. Results show that the terrestrial geckos have evolved independently at least five times. The earliest diversification began ~ 22–14 Ma, followed by the evolution of other ground dwelling lineages more recently. Most of diversification in the terrestrial lineages coincide with the intensification of monsoon seasonality during late Miocene, which initiated the establishment of open grassland habitats. Thus establishment of grasslands might have facilitated the evolution of the terrestrial lineages.
The fifth chapter summarises the conclusions of each chapter in brief. My findings indicate that climate has been a key factor shaping the lineage as well as morphological diversification in this group. Understanding the broad ancestral climatic niche of Hemidactylus also provides an insight into the climatic history of Peninsular India.

The analysis described herein applies density functional theory to the activation and scission of the small multiply bonded molecules dinitrogen, carbon monoxide and carbon
dioxide using transition metal catalysts.
Starting from the Laplaza-Cummins 3-coordinate molybdenum amide complex MoL3 (L = N(tBu)Ar ) we have applied electronic structure methods in combination with the
ONIOM approach to complete a comprehensive study of the effect of ligand bulk on theactivation of dinitrogen. Our results show that not only is there expected destabilisation of the intermediate on the pathway, due to direct steric interactions of the bulky groups, but
also there is significant electronic destabilisation as the size of the ligand increases. This latter destabilisation is due to the inability of the molecule to accommodate a rotated amide group bound to the molybdenum once the amide reaches a certain size.
Interestingly the Laplaza-Cummins catalyst is experimentally inactive towards carbon dioxide despite binding and cleaving one C-S bond in the similar CS2 molecule. We have used density functional theory (DFT) to show that, at first glance, the reaction of 3 L3Mo +
CO2 should proceed smoothly to give L3Mo-O + L3Mo-CO-MoL3. However, initial coordination of the CO2 molecule to L3Mo does not take place because of the bending of
CO2, the energy required to cross from the doublet to the quartet state, and the lower metal-CO2 binding energy compared to metal-CS2.
From this analysis we predicted that replacement of the central metal with a d2 transition metal would provide improved binding. Our calculations in this regard suggest
that the tantalum analogue, TaL3, will successfully bind to CO2 in a mononuclear η2 arrangement and, importantly, will strongly activate one C-O bond to a point where
spontaneously C-O cleave occurs. This strongly exothermic reaction takes into consideration formation transition barriers, spin crossings, ligand bulk and even the DFT
functional choice.
The product from this reaction, CO, is known to react with a similar 3-coordinate Ta(silox)3 (silox = OSi(tBu)3) complex, initially forming a ketenylidene (silox)3Ta-CCO,
followed by a dicarbide (silox)3Ta-CC-(silox)3 structure. We again applied DFT methods to this reaction revealing an intricate mechanism whereby the previously unknown
intermediate [(silox)3Ta-CO]2 was identified. The mechanism has been extended to consider the effect of altering both the metal species and the ligand environment. Specifically we predict that introducing electron-rich metals to the left of Ta on the periodic table to create mixed metal dinuclear intermediates shows great promise, as does the ligand environment of the Cummins-style 3-coordinate amide structure.
Finally our interest in CO2 reactions lead to the exciting oxygen-atom transfer from carbon dioxide to a Fischer Carbene at (PNP)Ir reaction by the Grubbs group. We have
confirmed the mechanism for the important CO2 reaction and have successfully rationalised the selective cleavage of the CS and CN bonds in OCS and PhNCO. The formation of the
iridium-supported carbene itself has also been investigated and a fascinating autocatalytic mechanism has been discovered which nicely fits the observed experimental behaviour. This formation analysis has also been extended to consider the reactions with other linear and cyclic ethers that are known to form either carbenes or vinyl ether adducts. We have successfully rationalised the factors dictating reaction direction where both ether structural arrangement and (PNP) ligand environment contribute to the formation reaction
outcomes.

This chapter traces the complex interplay of race, geography, and cultural criticism that permeated the Renaissance as a whole. Beginning with the categorization of the neighborhood as the Black Belt and ending with heralding itself as “Bronzeville,” the chapter examines the interaction of newly arrived migrants with previously settled African Americans that bloomed into an exciting community. It specifically analyzes two popular intersections in the South Side of Chicago—the “Stroll” district (the intersection of 35th and State Streets) during the early 1920s, and the intersection at 47th and South Parkway. This intersection, along with the Stroll, served as foundations and sources of work for famed African American musicians, artists, and writers, such as Richard Wright, Langston Hughes, and Gwendolyn Brooks.

At the time of writing, politics within Scotland and the UK is experiencing a period of uncertainty, with issues such as Brexit, Scottish nationalism, the ‘refugee crisis’ and continued economic insecurity creating a complicated and unprecedented political climate. Scotland, for many, is considered to be expressing a distinctive politics to the rest ofthe UK (Mooney, 2013; McAngus, 2015), with the Scottish National Party (SNP) having strong representation in both the Scottish and UK Parliaments. With regard to the electorate, there is a sense that youngpeople in Scotland have recently become more politicised (Baxter et al., 2015; Hopkins, 2015), with sixteen- and seventeen-year-olds having been given the right to vote in the Scottish parliamentary elections and the 2014 independence referendum. This contests the frequent narrative that young people are politically apathetic (Kimberlee, 2002), and adds to a growing body of work that seeks to examine and unearth the varied and complex ways in which young people engage with political issues (Brookes and Hodkinson, 2008; O’Toole and Gale, 2013; Pilkington and Pollock, 2015).

This chapter explores the significance of the appearance of Greville’s Life of Sidney in 1651 and his Remains, the poetic treatises on monarchy and religion in 1670. The Life of Sidney appeared as in favour of mixed monarchy held up by a virtuous aristocracy against the tyranny of the interregnum government, while the Remains offers virtuous, consultative monarchy, fully invested in ‘popularity’, against tyranny and in full favour of toleration. This complex picture stands against the dark machinations of the Cabal government in 1670, in which Charles II played off his Privy Council advisers one against another. Greville’s poems are a very Protestant poetic attack upon various kinds of idolatry, so that they line up well with the iconoclasm of Milton’s Paradise Lost, which had recently appeared, and not at all well with the indubitably royalist, conformist identity of their publisher.

In the just-so story often told about the rise of postmodernism we have apparently come to believe that the truth of the self is a certain kind of fiction, and that the urgency of self-creation trumps older ideas about self-knowledge. Yet within the wider popular marketplace for autobiographical writing there remains a widespread and seemingly entrenched belief that the truth of the self can—indeed must—be told in a transparent and definitive way. This chapter describes a line of philosophical thinking about selfhood that descends from Heidegger into figures such as Paul Ricoeur and Charles Taylor, which is equally critical of both these alternatives. Arguing for the importance of the evaluative language this tradition establishes, especially the complex and problematic term ‘authenticity’, it tests out philosophical ideas about self-knowledge against some of the most intellectually exacting attempts at autobiography in this period, including Jean-Paul Sartre, Jeanette Winterson, Roland Barthes, Christine Brooke-Rose, and J. M. Coetzee.

Since the publication of Bram Stoker’s novel Dracula in 1897, the character of Count Dracula has proven to be eminently adaptable, appearing in various guises in over 300 feature films – from FW Murnau’s Nosferatu (1922) through to Dario Argento’s Dracula 3D (2012). As with other iconic characters such as Sherlock Holmes and Batman, Dracula has been freed from his roots in a source text and entered what Will Brooker describes as ‘the realm of the icon’. Yet, while there has been a considerable amount of scholarship on the canonical adaptations of Dracula produced in Hollywood, the UK and Germany, very little has been written on the numerous adaptations of the Count Dracula character that have appeared in other film industries. This chapter considers examples of transnational film remakes, including the 1953 Turkish film Drakula İstanbul'da (Dracula in Istanbul), the 1957 Mexican film El Vampiro (The Vampire), and the 1967 Pakistani film Zinda Laash (The Living Corpse). Paying close attention to the variety of ways in which the character is utilised across different cultural contexts, this chapter interrogates the complex issues that this raises in relation to the dynamic interplay of global and local within international popular cinema.

<em>Abstract</em>.—Lampreys are among the least studied group of fishes in California. At least seven species inhabit freshwater habitats within the state, including the Kern brook lamprey <em>Lampetra hubbsi</em>, a California endemic. Four species are micropredators on fish, Pacific lamprey <em>Entosphenus tridentatus</em> (formerly <em>L. tridentata</em>), river lamprey <em>L. ayresii</em>, Klamath lamprey <em>E. similis</em> (formerly <em>L. similis</em>) and Goose Lake lamprey <em>Entosphenus</em> sp. The remaining three species are nonfeeding as adults and are presumed to have many populations isolated from one another. Pacific lamprey and river lamprey are anadromous and may have increased diversity through multiple runs. A systematic analysis of the limited information available indicates that, with the possible exception of the Pit-Klamath brook lamprey <em>E. lethophagus</em> (formerly <em>L. lethophaga</em>), all species are either declining, in low numbers, or in isolated populations. Causes of the declines are multiple and species-specific, but in general, alteration of watersheds by humans, resulting in increased siltation, temperatures and pollution, as well as other habitat changes are the principal causes. Protecting lampreys has the benefit of protecting stream ecosystems throughout the state because of the wide historic presence of lampreys and because ammocoetes require clean, cool water and relatively complex habitat, including stable backwaters.

<em>Abstract</em>.—Increasingly, fisheries managers must make important decisions in complex environments where rapidly changing landscape and climate conditions interact with historical impacts to influence resource sustainability. Successful fisheries management in this setting will require that we adapt traditional management approaches to incorporate information on these complex interacting factors—a process referred to as resilient fisheries management. Large-scale species distribution data and predictive models have the potential to enhance the management of freshwater fishes through improved understanding of how past, present, and future natural and anthropogenic factors combine to determine species vulnerability and resiliency. Here we describe a resilient fisheries management framework that provides guidance on how and when these models can be incorporated into traditional approaches to meet specific goals and objectives for resource sustainability. In addition to elucidating complex drivers of distributional patterns and change, species distribution models can inform the prioritization, application, and implementation of management activities such as restoration (e.g., instream habitat and riparian), protection (e.g., areas where additional land use would result in a change in species distribution), and regulations (e.g., harvest restriction) in a way that informs resiliency to land use and climate change. Although considerable progress has been made with respect to applying species distribution models to the management of Brook Trout <em>Salvelinus fontinalis </em>and other aquatic species, there are several areas where a more unified research and management effort could increase the ability of distribution models to inform resilient management. Future efforts should aim to improve (1) data availability, consistency (sampling methodology), and quality (accounting for detection); (2) partnerships among researchers, agencies, and managers; and (3) model accessibility and understanding of limitations and potential benefits to managers (e.g., incorporation into publicly available decision support systems). The information and recommendations provided herein can be used to promote and advance the use of models in resilient fisheries management in the face of continued large-scale land use and climate change.

Through the Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, I have learned to appreciate the complexity of environmental dynamics when they are analyzed at multiple time and space scales. My experience as a postdoctoral fellow and in the LTER program facilitated much of my understanding of interdisciplinary research because of access to multiple disciplinary approaches and accumulation of long-term and multiple- scale information. My teaching of science benefited through recognition of the need for a combination of a deep understanding of each discipline’s role in an issue (reductionist approach) and the collaborative need for integrating disciplines to fully understand complexity. No single discipline can answer the complexity in an environmental question. I have improved my communication with the public through the combination of teaching and research reporting. The challenge is to develop the information in ways that can be communicated: free of scientific jargon, containing only essential data, and developed in scenarios that are recognized as real-life situations. The public has many forms and levels of understanding—there are K to gray and ordinary citizens and policy-makers; consequently, communication needs to be targeted appropriately. I value the role of collaboration; there is tremendous satisfaction and reward from working in teams that can accomplish so much more than can an individual. This collaboration requires compromise, interaction, and time, but those that strive for this approach to science are well recognized. I am fortunate in being in positions that have created opportunities for sustaining a long career in stimulating interdisciplinary and collaborative science. I had a traditional forest management and soil science education (Michigan Technological University and the University of Idaho). However, my entrée into ecosystem science was set up by my very valuable postdoctoral fellowship at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest under the guidance of Gene Likens from 1969 to 1970, before the formation of the LTER program. The Hubbard Brook experience, quite literally, educated me about systems thinking, with the watershed approach to understanding integrated responses from complex, multifactor interactions and influences of forest management as disturbances.

The causes of atlantoaxial instability include trauma, tumor, congenital malformation, or rheumatoid arthritis. Commonly available fixation techniques to stabilize the atlantoaxial complex are several posterior wiring procedures (Brooks fusion, Gallie fusion), transarticular screw procedure (Magerl technique), either alone or in combination. Wiring procedures are obviously easier to accomplish however these do not provide sufficient immobilization across the atlantoaxial complex1,3,4. On the other hand, although transarticular screw fixation (TSF) affords a much stiffer atlantoaxial arthrodesis than posterior wiring procedures. However, TSF has some drawbacks; for example the injury of vertebral artery. Furthermore, body habitus (obesity or thoracic kyphosis) may prevent from achieving the low angle needed for correct placement of screws between C1 and C2. Recently, a new technique of screw and rod fixation (SRF) that minimizes the risk of injury to the vertebral artery and allows intraoperative reduction has been reported2,6. The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical stability imparted to the C1 and C2 vertebrae by either TSF or SRF technique in a cadaver model.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) with vertical take-off and landing capability have made significant progress in recent decades, especially with the emergence of advanced air mobility. One of the main issues these aircraft face that has challenged their commercial applicability is the high noise footprint. The aim of this study is to understand the complex aerodynamic interactions in such aircraft that lead to high noise emissions. For this purpose, a quadrotor biplane tailsitter was analyzed in forward flight conditions using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) focusing on the rotor-wing unsteady aerodynamic interaction, and its implications on the acoustic footprint of the aircraft. The aircraft was trimmed using the CFD data and blade element momentum theory estimates. The resulting surface pressure distribution was used to calculate the tonal and broadband noise footprints using the Ffowcs Williams - Hawkings equation and the Brooks, Pope, and Marcolini (BPM) semi-empirical model, respectively. The aircraft was analyzed with different rotor phasing arrangements to understand its effect on the noise footprint. The rotor-rotor interactions were found to be minimal due to the freestream. The rotor-airframe interaction leads to a substantial increase in aircraft noise. Rotor synchrophasing proved to be effective in controlling the aircraft noise footprint.

The use of mobile health apps has been on the rise, as they allow people to get their health information more conveniently. Many people are using their mobile health apps to track their health status (KC et al., 2021), but there are known issues with people being unable to use their health apps effectively due to poor design. According to Wildebos et al. (2019), if users are continuously failing to get the information they need, they could develop feelings of insecurity and stop using the app. To mitigate these negative interface design impacts, Universal Design Principles (Story, 1998) and Gestalt’s Principle of Perceptual Grouping (Smith-Gratto & Fisher, 1999) could be used to improve the interfaces. In the present study, we evaluated several interfaces of pedometer apps that varied in terms of flexibility (low and high) and three levels of simplicity (simple, intermediate, complex). Ninety six participants were recruited from MTurk. The participants responded to questions on a survey that require them to extract information from a pedometer interface. After answering the comprehension questions for the specific interface, participants were asked to indicate their perceived ease of use (Brooke, 1996) and the likelihood of utilizing the pedometer app (Pasha & Indrawati, 2020). We found that participants had higher accuracy scores with the interface that was intermediate in terms of simplicity, but they preferred the simple or complex interface design. Results of this study suggest that users may not prefer designs that lead to better task performance and designers will need to balance features that enhance performance versus those that users find to be more attractive or desirable for continued use.

Emission standard agencies are coming up with more stringent regulations on soot, given its adverse effect on human health. It is expected that Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will soon place stricter regulations on allowed levels of the size of soot particles from aircraft jet engines. Since, aircraft engines operate at varying operating pressure, temperature and air-fuel ratios, soot fraction changes from condition to condition. Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations are playing a key role in understanding the complex mechanism of soot formation and the factors affecting it. In the present work, soot formation prediction from numerical analyses for turbulent kerosene-air diffusion jet flames at five different operating pressures in the range of 1 atm. to 7 atm. is presented. The geometrical and test conditions are obtained from Young’s thesis [1]. Coupled combustion-soot simulations are performed for all the flames using steady diffusion flamelet model for combustion and Mass-Brookes-Hall 2-equation model for soot with a 2D axisymmetric mesh. Combustion-Soot coupling is required to consider the effect of soot-radiation interaction. Simulation results in the form of axial and radial profiles of temperature, mixture fraction and soot volume fraction are compared with the corresponding experimental measured profiles. The results for temperature and mixture fraction compare well with the experimental profiles. Predicted order of magnitude and the profiles of the soot volume fraction also compare well with the experimental results. The correct trend of increasing the peak soot volume fraction with increasing the operating pressure is also captured.

This paper introduces an uncertainty model and analyzer tool being developed for one of the world’s largest space environmental test facilities—the Spacecraft Propulsion Research Facility (B•2) located at NASA Glenn Research Center’s Plum Brook Station near Sandusky, Ohio. The B•2 is the world’s only facility capable of testing full-scale upper-stage launch vehicles and rocket engines under simulated high-altitude conditions (NASA Glenn Research Center, Spacecraft Propulsion Research Facility (B•2), http://facilities.grc.nasa.gov/b2/ Accessed Jan. 22, 2014). Developing an uncertainty tool for the data acquisition of a test facility of this scale presents unique metrology challenges. Not only must the uncertainty analyzer tool be versatile enough to accommodate a wide range of disciplines and measurement requirements (such as temperature, pressure, strain, vacuum, and acceleration), but it must provide a user-interactive platform for evaluating system measurement uncertainty based on customer-chosen measurement scenarios ranging from the most simplistic tests to the most complex ones. The uncertainty analyzer tool, which was developed in Microsoft’s Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) in Excel, will serve multiple purposes, including aiding in the optimal selection of measuring and test equipment, communicating capabilities to customers, and supporting all decisions based on measurements. This paper outlines the methodology followed, the features of this tool, and how the tool can be applied to the measurement processes of different facilities.
