We study resulting price cycles and the associated expected long-term profits. We show that reaction frequencies have a major impact on a strategy's performance.

Some authors argue that plants with duplicated chromosome sets (polyploids) are more stress- resistant and superior colonizers and may thus outnumber their low ploidy conspecifics in more extreme habitats. Brachypodium distachyon (sensu lato), for example, a common annual grass in Israel and the entire Mediterranean basin, comprises three cytotypes of differing chromosome numbers that were recently proposed as distinct species. It was suggested that increased aridity increases the occurrence of its polyploid cytotype. Here, we tested at two spatial scales whether polyploid plants of B. distachyon s. l. are more frequently found in drier habitats in Israel. We collected a total of 430 specimens (i) along a largescale climatic gradient with 15 thoroughly selected sites (spanning 114- 954 mm annual rainfall), and (ii) from corresponding Northern (more mesic) and Southern (more arid) hill slopes to assess the micro- climatic difference between contrasting exposures. Cytotypes were then determined via flow cytometry. Polyploid plants comprised 90\% of all specimens and their proportion ranged between 0\% and 100\% per site. However, this proportion was not correlated with aridity along the large- scale gradient, nor were polyploids more frequently found on Southern exposures. Our results show for both spatial scales that increasing aridity is not the principal driver for the distribution of polyploids in B. distachyon s. l. in Israel. Notably, though, diploid plants were restricted essentially to four intermediate sites, while polyploids dominated the most arid and the most mesic sites. This, to some degree, clustered pattern suggests that the distribution of cytotypes is not entirely random and calls for future studies to assess further potential drivers.}, language = {en} } @article{DereudreMazzonettoRoelly2017, author = {Dereudre, David and Mazzonetto, Sara and Roelly, Sylvie}, title = {Exact simulation of Brownian diffusions with drift admitting jumps}, series = {SIAM journal on scientific computing}, volume = {39}, journal = {SIAM journal on scientific computing}, number = {3}, publisher = {Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics}, address = {Philadelphia}, issn = {1064-8275}, doi = {10.1137/16M107699X}, pages = {A711 -- A740}, year = {2017}, abstract = {In this paper, using an algorithm based on the retrospective rejection sampling scheme introduced in [A.

However, there are important knowledge gaps on PSC patterns for annual communities and there is a need for studies along environmental gradients in dry ecosystems where several processes shape PSC. Here, we investigated the PSC of annual plants along an aridity gradient in Israel, including eight years, two spatial scales, the effects of shrubs on understory, and the phylogenetic signal of important traits. Increasing drought stress led to overdispersed PSC at the drier end of the gradient, indicating that species were less related than expected by chance. This was supported at a smaller spatial scale, where within the drier sites, communities in open- more arid- habitats were more overdispersed than those under nurse shrubs. Interestingly, some key traits related to drought resistance were not conserved in the phylogeny. Together, our findings suggested that while habitat filtering selected for drought resistance strategies, these strategies evolved independently along multiple contrasting evolutionary lineages. Our comprehensive PSC study provides strong evidence for the interacting effects of habitat filtering and plant- plant interactions, particularly highlighting that the conservative evolution of traits should not be assumed in future interpretations of PSC patterns.}, language = {en} } @article{BrechenmacherDelgado2017, author = {Brechenmacher, Thomas and Delgado, Mariano}, title = {Re-formation - zu einem Strukturprinzip der Christentums- und Religionsgeschichte}, series = {Historisches Jahrbuch}, volume = {137}, journal = {Historisches Jahrbuch}, publisher = {Alber}, address = {Freiburg, Breisgau}, isbn = {978-3-495-45294-3}, issn = {0018-2621}, pages = {3 -- 6}, year = {2017}, language = {de} } @article{Ehrensperger2017, author = {Ehrensperger, Kathy}, title = {Trajectories and future avenues in Pauline Studies and Jewish-Christian relations}, series = {Journal of beliefs and values : studies in religion \& education}, volume = {38}, journal = {Journal of beliefs and values : studies in religion \& education}, number = {2}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {1361-7672}, doi = {10.1080/13617672.2017.1314988}, pages = {153 -- 158}, year = {2017}, abstract = {William S.

The recently proposed ensemble transform particle filter (ETPF) [S. Reich, SIAM T. Sci.

However, the linear transformation step is computationally expensive and leads to an underestimation of the ensemble spread for small and moderate ensemble sizes. Here we address both of these shortcomings by developing second order accurate extensions of the ETPF. These extensions allow one in particular to replace the exact solution of a linear transport problem by its Sinkhorn approximation. It is also demonstrated that the nonlinear ensemble transform filter arises as a special case of our general framework. We illustrate the performance of the second-order accurate filters for the chaotic Lorenz-63 and Lorenz-96 models and a dynamic scene-viewing model. The numerical results for the Lorenz-63 and Lorenz-96 models demonstrate that significant accuracy improvements can be achieved in comparison to a standard ensemble Kalman filter and the ETPF for small to moderate ensemble sizes. The numerical results for the scene-viewing model reveal, on the other hand, that second-order corrections can lead to statistically inconsistent samples from the posterior parameter distribution.}, language = {en} } @article{Schorsch2017, author = {Schorsch, Jonathan}, title = {Modern Angels, Avant-Gardes and the Esoteric Archive}, series = {Lux in Tenebris : The Visual and the Symbolic in Western Esotericism}, volume = {23}, journal = {Lux in Tenebris : The Visual and the Symbolic in Western Esotericism}, publisher = {Brill}, address = {Leiden}, isbn = {978-90-04-33495-3}, issn = {1871-1405}, doi = {10.1163/9789004334953_018}, pages = {397 -- 424}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{Kunow2017, author = {Kunow, R{\"u}diger}, title = {The biology of geography disease disease and disease ecologies in the Americas}, series = {The Routledge companion to inter-American studies}, journal = {The Routledge companion to inter-American studies}, publisher = {Routledge}, address = {Abingdon}, isbn = {978-1-315-64498-1}, pages = {296 -- 307}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{Ludwig2017, author = {Ludwig, Joachim}, title = {A subject-theoretical perspective on transformative learning and transformative Bildung}, series = {Transformative learning meets Bildung : an international exchange}, volume = {21}, journal = {Transformative learning meets Bildung : an international exchange}, publisher = {Sense Publishers}, address = {Rotterdam}, isbn = {978-94-6300-795-5}, doi = {10.1007/978-94-6300-797-9_4}, pages = {43 -- 55}, year = {2017}, abstract = {The German theory on transformative Bildung (Koller, Marotzki, \& Sanders, 2007; Koller, 2012; Nohl, 2014) deals with transformation processes in human thinking.

These effects become increasingly significant with the signal bandwidth and hence more important for new broadband navigation signals.

A new method to estimate the total electron content (TEC) from a single frequency high gain antenna measurement of a broadband GNSS signal is proposed and described in detail. The received signal is de facto unaffected by multi-path and interference because of the narrow aperture angle of the used antenna which should reduce the error source of the result in general.

We found longer reading latencies and judgment reaction times (RTs) for OAs. Further, OAs, particularly those with low WM scores, were more accepting of sentences with attraction errors than YAs. OAs showed longer reading latencies for ungrammatical sentences, again modulated by WM, than YAs.

Due to their lower molecular weight and, thus, more drug-like chemical structure, the novel inhibitor class may show better pharmacokinetic properties than reported oligonucleotide inhibitors, enabling them for potential therapeutic use.}, language = {en} } @article{ZouWangNeffeetal.2017, author = {Zou, Jie and Wang, Weiwei and Neffe, Axel T. and Xu, Xun and Li, Zhengdong and Deng, Zijun and Sun, Xianlei and Ma, Nan and Lendlein, Andreas}, title = {Adipogenic differentiation of human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells in 3D architectured gelatin based hydrogels (ArcGel)}, series = {Clinical hemorheology and microcirculation : blood flow and vessels}, volume = {67}, journal = {Clinical hemorheology and microcirculation : blood flow and vessels}, number = {3-4}, publisher = {IOS Press}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {1386-0291}, doi = {10.3233/CH-179210}, pages = {297 -- 307}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Polymeric matrices mimicking multiple functions of the ECM are expected to enable a material induced regeneration of tissues. Here, we investigated the adipogenic differentiation of human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) in a 3D architectured gelatin based hydrogel (ArcGel) prepared from gelatin and L-lysine diisocyanate ethyl ester (LDI) in an one-step process, in which the formation of an open porous morphology and the chemical network formation were integrated. The ArcGel was designed to support adipose tissue regeneration with its 3D porous structure, high cell biocompatibility, and mechanical properties compatible with human subcutaneous adipose tissue. The ArcGel could support initial cell adhesion and survival of hADSCs. Under static culture condition, the cells could migrate into the inner part of the scaffold with a depth of 840 +/- 120 mu m after 4 days, and distributed in the whole scaffold (2mm in thickness) within 14 days. The cells proliferated in the scaffold and the fold increase of cell number after 7 days of culture was 2.55 +/- 0.08. The apoptotic rate of hADSCs in the scaffold was similar to that of cells maintained on tissue culture plates. When cultured in adipogenic induction medium, the hADSCs in the scaffold differentiated into adipocytes with a high efficiency (93 +/- 1\%). Conclusively, this gelatin based 3D scaffold presented high cell compatibility for hADSC cultivation and differentiation, which could serve as a potential implant material in clinical applications for adipose tissue reparation and regeneration.}, language = {en} } @article{VasilievTarchanov2017, author = {Vasiliev, Sergey B. and Tarchanov, Nikolaj Nikolaevič}, title = {Construction of series of perfect lattices by layer superposition}, series = {Journal of Siberian Federal University : Mathematics \& physics}, volume = {10}, journal = {Journal of Siberian Federal University : Mathematics \& physics}, number = {3}, publisher = {Sibirskij Federalʹnyj Universitet}, address = {Krasnojarsk}, issn = {1997-1397}, doi = {10.17516/1997-1397-2017-10-3-353-361}, pages = {353 -- 361}, year = {2017}, abstract = {We construct a new series of perfect lattices in n dimensions by the layer superposition method of Delaunay-Barnes.}, language = {en} }
