  abstract  = {Background: Medical training is very demanding and associated with a high prevalence of psychological distress. Compared to the general population, medical students are at a greater risk of developing a psychological disorder. Various attempts of stress management training in medical school have achieved positive results on minimizing psychological distress; however, there are often limitations. Therefore, the use of a rigorous scientific method is needed. The present study protocol describes a randomized controlled trial to examine the effectiveness of a specifically developed mindfulness-based stress prevention training for medical students that includes selected elements of cognitive behavioral strategies (MediMind). Methods/Design: This study protocol presents a prospective randomized controlled trial, involving four assessment time points: baseline, post-intervention, one-year follow-up and five-year follow-up. The aims include evaluating the effect on stress, coping, psychological morbidity and personality traits with validated measures. Participants are allocated randomly to one of three conditions: MediMind, Autogenic Training or control group. Eligible participants are medical or dental students in the second or eighth semester of a German university. They form a population of approximately 420 students in each academic term. A final total sample size of 126 (at five-year follow-up) is targeted. The trainings (MediMind and Autogenic Training) comprise five weekly sessions lasting 90 minutes each. MediMind will be offered to participants of the control group once the five-year follow-up is completed. The allotment is randomized with a stratified allocation ratio by course of studies, semester, and gender. After descriptive statistics have been evaluated, inferential statistical analysis will be carried out with a repeated measures ANOVA-design with interactions between time and group. Effect sizes will be calculated using partial η-square values. Discussion: Potential limitations of this study are voluntary participation and the risk of attrition, especially concerning participants that are allocated to the control group. Strengths are the study design, namely random allocation, follow-up assessment, the use of control groups and inclusion of participants at different stages of medical training with the possibility of differential analysis.},

  abstract  = {A polymer analogous reaction was carried out to generate a porous polymeric network with N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) in the polymer backbone. Using a stepwise approach, first a polyimine network is formed by polymerization of the tetrafunctional amine tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)methane. This polyimine network is converted in the second step into polyimidazolium chloride and finally to a polyNHC network. Furthermore a porous Cu(II)-coordinated polyNHC network can be generated. Supercritical drying generates polymer networks with high permanent surface areas and porosities which can be applied for different catalytic reactions. The catalytic properties were demonstrated for example in the activation of CO2 or in the deoxygenation of sulfoxides to the corresponding sulfides.},

  abstract  = {Extreme weather events are likely to occur more often under climate change and the resulting effects on ecosystems could lead to a further acceleration of climate change. But not all extreme weather events lead to extreme ecosystem response. Here, we focus on hazardous ecosystem behaviour and identify coinciding weather conditions. We use a simple probabilistic risk assessment based on time series of ecosystem behaviour and climate conditions. Given the risk assessment terminology, vulnerability and risk for the previously defined hazard are estimated on the basis of observed hazardous ecosystem behaviour. We apply this approach to extreme responses of terrestrial ecosystems to drought, defining the hazard as a negative net biome productivity over a 12-month period. We show an application for two selected sites using data for 1981-2010 and then apply the method to the pan-European scale for the same period, based on numerical modelling results (LPJmL for ecosystem behaviour; ERA-Interim data for climate). Our site-specific results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed method, using the SPEI to describe the climate condition. The site in Spain provides an example of vulnerability to drought because the expected value of the SPEI is 0.4 lower for hazardous than for non-hazardous ecosystem behaviour. In northern Germany, on the contrary, the site is not vulnerable to drought because the SPEI expectation values imply wetter conditions in the hazard case than in the non-hazard case. At the pan-European scale, ecosystem vulnerability to drought is calculated in the Mediterranean and temperate region, whereas Scandinavian ecosystems are vulnerable under conditions without water shortages. These first model- based applications indicate the conceptual advantages of the proposed method by focusing on the identification of critical weather conditions for which we observe hazardous ecosystem behaviour in the analysed data set. Application of the method to empirical time series and to future climate would be important next steps to test the approach.},

  abstract  = {Flood risk management in Germany follows an integrative approach in which both private households and businesses can make an important contribution to reducing flood damage by implementing property-level adaptation measures. While the flood adaptation behavior of private households has already been widely researched, comparatively less attention has been paid to the adaptation strategies of businesses. However, their ability to cope with flood risk plays an important role in the social and economic development of a flood-prone region. Therefore, using quantitative survey data, this study aims to identify different strategies and adaptation drivers of 557 businesses damaged by a riverine flood in 2013 and 104 businesses damaged by pluvial or flash floods between 2014 and 2017. Our results indicate that a low perceived self-efficacy may be an important factor that can reduce the motivation of businesses to adapt to flood risk. Furthermore, property-owners tended to act more proactively than tenants. In addition, high experience with previous flood events and low perceived response costs could strengthen proactive adaptation behavior. These findings should be considered in business-tailored risk communication.},

  abstract  = {Ein Spezialgebiet der modernen Mikroelektronik ist die Miniaturisierung und Entwicklung von neuen nanostrukturierten und Komposit-Materialen aus 3d-Metallen. Durch geeignete Zusammensetzungen k{\"o}nnen diese sowohl mit einer hohen S{\"a}ttigungsmagnetisierung und Koerzitivfeldst{\"a}rke als mit besserer Oxidationsbest{\"a}ndigkeit im Vergleich zu den reinen Elementen erzielt werden. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden neue Methoden f{\"u}r die Herstellung von bimetallischen kolloidalen Nanopartikeln vor allem mit einer Kern-H{\"u}lle-Struktur (Kern@H{\"u}lle) pr{\"a}sentiert. Bei der {\"u}berwiegenden Zahl der vorgestellten Reaktionen handelt es sich um die thermische Zersetzung von metallorganischen Verbindungen wie Kobaltcarbonyl, Palladium- und Platinacetylacetonate oder die chemische Reduktion von Metallsalze mit langkettigem Alkohol in organischem L{\"o}sungsmittel. Daneben sind auch Kombinationen aus diesen beiden Verfahren beschrieben. Es wurden Kolloide aus einem reinen Edelmetall (Pt, Pd, Ag) in einem organischen L{\"o}sungsmittel synthetisiert und daraus neue, bisher in dieser Form nicht bekannte Ag@Co-, Pt@Co-, Pd@Co- und Pt@Pd@Co-Nanopartikel gewonnen. Der Kobaltgehalt der Ag@Co-, Teilchen konnte im Bereich von 5 bis 73 At. \% beliebig eingestellt werden. Der mittlere Durchmesser der Ag@Co-Partikel wurde von 5 nm bis 15 nm variiert. Bei der Herstellung von Pt@Co-Teilchen wurde eine unterschiedlich dicke Kobalt-H{\"u}lle von ca. 1,0 bis 2,5 nm erzielt. Im Fall des Palladiums wurden sowohl monodispere als auch polydisperse Pd-Nanopartikel mit einer maximal 1,7-2,0nm dicken Kobalth{\"u}lle synthetisiert. Ein großer Teil dieser Arbeit befasst sich mit den magnetischen Eigenschaften der kolloidalen Teilchen, wobei die SQUID-Magnetometrie und R{\"o}ntgenzirkulardichroismus (XMCD) daf{\"u}r eingesetzt wurden. Weil magnetische Messungen alleine nur indirekte Schl{\"u}sse {\"u}ber die untersuchten Systeme erlauben, wurde dabei besonderer Wert auf die m{\"o}glichst genaue strukturelle Charakterisierung der Proben mittels moderner Untersuchungsmethoden gelegt. R{\"o}ntgendiffraktometrie (XRD), R{\"o}ntgenabsorptionsfeinstruktur- (EXAFS) und UV-Vis-Spektroskopie sowie Transmissionselektronenmikroskopie (TEM) in Kombination mit Elektronen Energieverlustspektroskopie (EELS) und energiedispersive R{\"o}ntgenfluoreszensanalyse (EDX) wurden verwendet.},
