However, Germany has been a respected and highly relevant member of the United Nations not only during its terms on the Security Council but also in "normal" times. The present article attempts to shed light on a few aspects of Germany's role in the UN during Merkel's chancellorship with an emphasis on her third term (2014-2017), such as the cooperative relationship between Germany and the UN Secretary-General in important policy fields, Germany's financial contributions to the UN, the impact of Germany's EU membership on its UN membership and the country's efforts with regard to the reform of the Security Council. The paper further provides context for Germany's abstention in the vote on Security Council Resolution 1973 on Libya in 2011. It concludes by ascertaining that Germany with its approach of active multilateralism has taken its place as one of the leading nations in Europe and is ready to take on responsibility with its partners to achieve a peaceful and stable world order.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Behrens2018, author = {Behrens, Ricarda}, title = {Causes for slow weathering and erosion in the steep, warm, monsoon-subjected Highlands of Sri Lanka}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-408503}, school = {Universit{\"a}t Potsdam}, pages = {ix, 107, XXIV}, year = {2018}, abstract = {In the Highlands of Sri Lanka, erosion and chemical weathering rates are among the lowest for global mountain denudation. In this tropical humid setting, highly weathered deep saprolite profiles have developed from high-grade metamorphic charnockite during spheroidal weathering of the bedrock. The spheroidal weathering produces rounded corestones and spalled rindlets at the rock-saprolite interface. I used detailed textural, mineralogical, chemical, and electron-microscopic (SEM, FIB, TEM) analyses to identify the factors limiting the rate of weathering front advance in the profile, the sequence of weathering reactions, and the underlying mechanisms. The first mineral attacked by weathering was found to be pyroxene initiated by in situ Fe oxidation, followed by in situ biotite oxidation. Bulk dissolution of the primary minerals is best described with a dissolution - re-precipitation process, as no chemical gradients towards the mineral surface and sharp structural boundaries are observed at the nm scale. Only the local oxidation in pyroxene and biotite is better described with an ion by ion process. The first secondary phases are oxides and amorphous precipitates from which secondary minerals (mainly smectite and kaolinite) form. Only for biotite direct solid state transformation to kaolinite is likely. The initial oxidation of pyroxene and biotite takes place in locally restricted areas and is relatively fast: log J = -11 molmin/(m2 s). However, calculated corestone-scale mineral oxidation rates are comparable to corestone-scale mineral dissolution rates: log R = -13 molpx/(m2 s) and log R = -15 molbt/(m2 s). The oxidation reaction results in a volume increase. Volumetric calculations suggest that this observed oxidation leads to the generation of porosity due to the formation of micro-fractures in the minerals and the bedrock allowing for fluid transport and subsequent dissolution of plagioclase. At the scale of the corestone, this fracture reaction is responsible for the larger fractures that lead to spheroidal weathering and to the formation of rindlets. Since these fractures have their origin from the initial oxidational induced volume increase, oxidation is the rate limiting parameter for weathering to take place. The ensuing plagioclase weathering leads to formation of high secondary porosity in the corestone over a distance of only a few cm and eventually to the final disaggregation of bedrock to saprolite. As oxidation is the first weathering reaction, the supply of O2 is a rate-limiting factor for chemical weathering. Hence, the supply of O2 and its consumption at depth connects processes at the weathering front with erosion at the surface in a feedback mechanism. The strength of the feedback depends on the relative weight of advective versus diffusive transport of O2 through the weathering profile. The feedback will be stronger with dominating diffusive transport. The low weathering rate ultimately depends on the transport of O2 through the whole regolith, and on lithological factors such as low bedrock porosity and the amount of Fe-bearing primary minerals. In this regard the low-porosity charnockite with its low content of Fe(II) bearing minerals impedes fast weathering reactions. Fresh weatherable surfaces are a pre-requisite for chemical weathering. However, in the case of the charnockite found in the Sri Lankan Highlands, the only process that generates these surfaces is the fracturing induced by oxidation. Tectonic quiescence in this region and low pre-anthropogenic erosion rate (attributed to a dense vegetation cover) minimize the rejuvenation of the thick and cohesive regolith column, and lowers weathering through the feedback with erosion.}, language = {en} } @misc{OPUS4-64036, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 5}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {5}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {74}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-64038, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 4}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {4}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {63}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-63995, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 6}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {6}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {70}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-64047, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 1}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {1}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {82}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-64045, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 2}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {2}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {79}, year = {2018}, language = {de} } @misc{OPUS4-64043, title = {forum:logop{\"a}die 32.2018, 3}, series = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, volume = {32}, journal = {Forum Logop{\"a}die : Zeitschrift des Deutschen Bundesverbandes f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V, dbl}, number = {3}, publisher = {Schulz-Kirchner}, address = {Idstein}, organization = {Deutscher Bundesverband f{\"u}r Logop{\"a}die e.V.}, issn = {0932-0547}, pages = {67}, year = {2018}, language = {de} }
