Completely engulfed emulsion droplets remained stable at room temperature and could be destabilized on demand upon heating to the transition temperature of the polymeric stabilizer. Time-dependent light micrographs demonstrate the temperature-induced breakdown of the Janus droplets, which opens new aspects of application, for instance in biocatalysis.

It is well known that when azobenzene containing polymer films are irradiated with optical interference patterns the film topography changes to form a surface relief grating. In the simplest case, the film shape mimics the intensity distribution and deforms into a wave like, sinusoidal manner with amplitude that may be as large as the film thickness. This process takes place in the glassy state without photo-induced softening. Here we report on an intriguing discovery regarding the formation of reliefs under special illumination conditions. We have developed a novel setup combining the optical part for creating interference patterns, an AFM for in situ acquisition of topography changes and diffraction efficiency signal measurements. In this way we demonstrate that these gratings can be “set in motion” like water waves or dunes in the desert. We achieve this by applying repetitive polarization changes to the incoming interference pattern. Such light responsive surfaces represent the prerequisite for providing practical applications ranging from conveyer or transport systems for adsorbed liquid objects and colloidal particles to generation of adaptive and dynamic optical devices.

Some personality types within a species might be better suited to cope with environmental change and therefore might be selected upon under ongoing urbanization. Results: We used LED street lamps in a large outdoor enclosure to experimentally investigate the effects of ALAN on activity patterns, movement and interaction of individuals of two species, the bank vole (Myodes glareolus) and the striped field mouse (Apodemus agrarius). We analyzed effects combined with individual boldness score. Both species reduced their activity budget during daylight hours. While under natural light conditions home ranges were larger during daylight than during nighttime, this difference vanished under ALAN. Conspecifics showed reduced home range overlap, proximity and activity synchrony when subjected to nighttime illumination. Changes in movement patterns in reaction to ALAN were not associated with differences in boldness score of individuals. Conclusions: Our results suggest that light pollution can lead to changes in movement patterns and individual interactions in small mammals. This could lead to fitness consequences on the population level.

Biological aging of the cognitive and postural control system appears to be responsible for increased cognitive-motor interference effects. We examined neural and behavioral markers of motor-cognitive dual-task performance in young and old adults performing spatial one-back working memory single and dual tasks during semitandem stance. On the neural level, we used EEG to test for age-related modulations in the frequency domain related to cognitive-postural task load. Twenty-eight healthy young and 30 old adults participated in this study. The tasks included a postural single task, a cognitive-postural dual task, and a cognitive-postural triple task (cognitive dual-task with postural demands). Postural sway (i.e., total center of pressure displacements) was recorded in semistance position on an unstable surface that was placed on top of a force plate while performing cognitive tasks. Neural activation was recorded using a 64-channel mobile EEG system. EEG frequencies were attenuated by the baseline postural single-task condition and demarcated in nine Regions-of-Interest (ROIs), i.e., anterior, central, posterior, over the cortical midline, and both hemispheres. Our findings revealed impaired cognitive dual-task performance in old compared to young participants in the form of significantly lower cognitive performance in the triple-task condition. Furthermore, old adults compared with young adults showed significantly larger postural sway, especially in cognitive-postural task conditions. With respect to EEG frequencies, young compared to old participants showed significantly lower alpha-band activity in cognitive-cognitive-postural triple-task conditions compared with cognitive-postural dual tasks. In addition, with increasing task difficulty, we observed synchronized theta and delta frequencies, irrespective of age. Taskdependent alterations of the alpha frequency band were most pronounced over frontal and central ROIs, while alterations of the theta and delta frequency bands were found in frontal, central, and posterior ROIs. Theta and delta synchronization exhibited a decrease from anterior to posterior regions. For old adults, task difficulty was reflected by theta synchronization in the posterior ROI. For young adults, it was reflected by alpha desynchronization in bilateral anterior ROIs. In addition, we could not identify any effects of task difficulty and age on the beta frequency band. Our results shed light on age-related cognitive and postural declines and how they interact. Modulated alpha frequencies during high cognitive-postural task demands in young but not old adults might be reflective of a constrained neural adaptive potential in old adults. Future studies are needed to elucidate associations between the identified age-related performance decrements with task difficulty and changes in brain activity.

Methods: Seventy-five male participants (27.7 ± 5.0 years) were enrolled in this study and allocated to three experimental groups according to their training status: athletes (ATH, n = 25), physically active adults (ACT, n = 25), and sedentary participants (SED, n = 25). The fatigue protocol comprised intermittent isometric knee flexions (6-s contraction, 4-s rest) at 60% of the maximum voluntary contraction until failure. Pre- and post-fatigue, maximal eccentric knee flexor strength and EMDs of the biceps femoris, semimembranosus, and semitendinosus muscles were assessed during maximal eccentric knee flexor actions at 60, 180, and 300°/s angular velocity. An analysis of covariance was computed with baseline (unfatigued) data included as a covariate. Results: Significant and large-sized main effects of group (p ≤ 0.017, 0.87 ≤ d ≤ 3.69) and/or angular velocity (p < 0.001, d = 1.81) were observed. Post hoc tests indicated that regardless of angular velocity, maximal eccentric knee flexor strength was lower and EMD was longer in SED compared with ATH and ACT (p ≤ 0.025, 0.76 ≤ d ≤ 1.82) and in ACT compared with ATH (p = ≤0.025, 0.76 ≤ d ≤ 1.82). Additionally, EMD at post-test was significantly longer at 300°/s compared with 60 and 180°/s (p < 0.001, 2.95 ≤ d ≤ 4.64) and at 180°/s compared with 60°/s (p < 0.001, d = 2.56), irrespective of training status. Conclusion: The main outcomes revealed significantly higher maximal eccentric strength and shorter eccentric EMDs of knee flexors in individuals with higher training status (i.e., athletes) following fatiguing exercises. Therefore, higher training status is associated with better neuromuscular functioning (i.e., strength, EMD) of the hamstring muscles in fatigued condition. Future longitudinal studies are needed to substantiate the clinical relevance of these findings.

Therefore, higher training status is associated with better neuromuscular functioning (i.e., strength, EMD) of the hamstring muscles in fatigued condition. Future longitudinal studies are needed to substantiate the clinical relevance of these findings.

I. Mal'tsev and B. H. Neumann (cf. [18, 19]). If G is an ordered group and F is a skew field, the set F((G)) of formal power series over F in G with well-ordered support forms a skew field into which the group ring F[G] can be embedded. Unfortunately it is not suficient that G is left-ordered since F((G)) is only an F-vector space in this case as there is no natural way to define a multiplication on F((G)). One way to extend the original idea onto left-ordered groups is to examine the endomorphism ring of F((G)) as explored by N. I. Dubrovin (cf. [5, 6]). It is possible to embed any crossed product ring F[G; η, σ] into the endomorphism ring of F((G)) such that each non-zero element of F[G; η, σ] defines an automorphism of F((G)) (cf. [5, 10]). Thus, the rational closure of F[G; η, σ] in the endomorphism ring of F((G)), which we will call the Dubrovin-ring of F[G; η, σ], is a potential candidate for a skew field of fractions of F[G; η, σ]. The methods of N. I. Dubrovin allowed to show that specific classes of groups can be embedded into a skew field. For example, N. I. Dubrovin contrived some special criteria, which are applicable on the universal covering group of SL(2, R). These methods have also been explored by J. Gräter and R. P. Sperner (cf. [10]) as well as N.H. Halimi and T. Ito (cf. [11]). Furthermore, it is of interest to know if skew fields of fractions are unique. For example, left and right Ore domains have unique skew fields of fractions (cf. [2]). This is not the general case as for example the free group with 2 generators can be embedded into non-isomorphic skew fields of fractions (cf. [12]). It seems likely that Ore domains are the most general case for which unique skew fields of fractions exist. One approach to gain uniqueness is to restrict the search to skew fields of fractions with additional properties. I. Hughes has defined skew fields of fractions of crossed product rings F[G; η, σ] with locally indicable G which fulfill a special condition. These are called Hughes-free skew fields of fractions and I. Hughes has proven that they are unique if they exist [13, 14]. This thesis will connect the ideas of N. I. Dubrovin and I. Hughes. The first chapter contains the basic terminology and concepts used in this thesis. We present methods provided by N. I. Dubrovin such as the complexity of elements in rational closures and special properties of endomorphisms of the vector space of formal power series F((G)). To combine the ideas of N.I. Dubrovin and I. Hughes we introduce Conradian left-ordered groups of maximal rank and examine their connection to locally indicable groups. Furthermore we provide notations for crossed product rings, skew fields of fractions as well as Dubrovin-rings and prove some technical statements which are used in later parts. The second chapter focuses on Hughes-free skew fields of fractions and their connection to Dubrovin-rings. For that purpose we introduce series representations to interpret elements of Hughes-free skew fields of fractions as skew formal Laurent series. This 1 Introduction allows us to prove that for Conradian left-ordered groups G of maximal rank the statement "F[G; η, σ] has a Hughes-free skew field of fractions" implies "The Dubrovin ring of F [G; η, σ] is a skew field". We will also prove the reverse and apply the results to give a new prove of Theorem 1 in [13]. Furthermore we will show how to extend injective ring homomorphisms of some crossed product rings onto their Hughes-free skew fields of fractions. At last we will be able to answer the open question whether Hughes--free skew fields are strongly Hughes-free (cf. [17, page 53]). N2 - In dieser Arbeit beschäftigen wir uns mit Quotientenschiefkörpern von verschränkten Produkten F [G; η, σ], wobei G eine Gruppe und F ein Schiefkörper ist. Eine Methode Gruppen in Schiefkörper einzubetten stammt von A. I. Mal’tsev und B. H. Neumann. Ist G eine beidseitig geordnete Gruppe, so lässt sich die Menge der formalen Potenzreihen F ((G)) über F in G mit wohlgeordnetem Träger als Schiefkörper interpretieren. In diesen lässt sich jedes verschränkte Produkt F [G; η, σ] einbetten. Möchte man die Klasse der einzubettenden Gruppen erweitern, so bieten sich links–geordnete Gruppen an. In diesem Fall hat F ((G)) keine natürliche Ringstruktur, aber man kann nutzen, dass F ((G)) ein rechter F–Vektorraum ist und seinen Endomorphismenring untersuchen. Jedes Verschränkte Produkt F [G; η, σ] lässt sich derart in den Endomorphismenring einbetten, dass die zugehörigen von Null verschiedenen Endomorphismen Automorphismen sind. Der rationale Abschluss von F [G; η, σ] in End(F ((G))), den wir Dubrovinring von F [G; η, σ] nennen, ist somit ein potentieller Quotientenschiefkörper von F [G; η, σ]. Neben der Existenz von Quotientenschiefkörpern ist deren Eindeutigkeit (bis auf Isomorphie) von Interesse. Im Gegensatz zum kommutativen Fall sind Quotientenschiefkörper im Allgemeinen nicht eindeutig. So lässt sich beispielsweise die freie Gruppe mit zwei Erzeugenden in nicht–isomorphe Quotientenschiefkörper einbetten. Eine große Klasse an Ringen, die eindeutige Quotientenschiefkörper besitzen, sind Ore–Bereiche. Vermutlich lässt sich diese Klasse nicht erweitern, ohne zusätzliche Eigenschaften der Quotientenschiefkörper zu verlangen. Eine solche Eigenschaft, im Folgenden Hughes–frei genannt, wurde von I. Hughes vorgeschlagen. Er konnte beweisen, dass Hughes–freie Quotientenschiefkörper eindeutig sind, wenn sie existieren. In dieser Arbeit verbinden wir die Ideen von I. Hughes und N. I. Dubrovin. Wir zeigen, dass die Elemente von Hughes–freien Quotientenschiefkörpern als formale schiefe Laurent–Reihen dargestellt werden können und dass diese Darstellungen in gewisser Weise eindeutig sind. Dieses Ergebnis nutzen wir um zu beweisen, dass die Aussagen “F [G; η, σ] besitzt einen Hughes–freien Quotientenschiefkörper” und “Der Dubrovinring von F [G; η, σ] ist ein Schiefkörper” äquivalent sind, wenn G eine links–geordnete Gruppe von Conrad–Typ mit maximalem Rang ist. Wir stellen den nötigen Begriffsapparat zur Verfügung. Dieser basiert vorwiegend auf den Arbeiten von N. I. Dubrovin und umfasst spezielle Eigenschaften der Endomorphismen von F ((G)) sowie die Komplexität von Elementen in rationalen Abschlüssen. Des Weiteren gehen wir auf links–geordnete Gruppen von Conrad–Typ ein und untersuchen ihren Zusammenhang mit lokal indizierbaren Gruppen, die eine grundlegende Rolle für Hughes–freie Quotientenschiefkörper spielen. Wir werden zeigen können, dass Dubrovinringe, die Schiefkörper sind, stark Hughes–freie Quotientenschiefkörper sind, was die offene Frage beantwortet, ob Hughes–freie Quotientenschiefkörper stark Hughes–frei sind. Außerdem werden wir einen alternativen Beweis der Eindeutigkeit von Hughes–freien Quotientenschiefkörpern präsentieren und die Fortsetzbarkeit von Automorphismen eines verschränkten Produkts auf Hughes–freie Quotientenschiefkörper untersuchen.

The shift from outcrossing to selfing is not only accompanied by scent loss, but also by a reduction in other pollinator-attracting traits like petal size and can be observed multiple times among angiosperms. These changes are summarized by the term selfing syndrome and represent one of the most prominent examples of convergent evolution within the plant kingdom. In this work the genus Capsella was used as a model to study convergent evolution in two closely related selfers with separate transitions to self-fertilization. Compared to their outbreeding ancestor C. grandiflora, the emission of benzaldehyde as main compound of floral scent is lacking or strongly reduced in the selfing species C. rubella and C. orientalis. In C. rubella the loss of benzaldehyde was caused by mutations to cinnamate:CoA ligase CNL1, but the biochemical basis and evolutionary history of this loss remained unknown, together with the genetic basis of scent loss in C. orientalis. Here, a combination of plant transformations, in vitro enzyme assays, population genetics and quantitative genetics has been used to address these questions. The results indicate that CNL1 has been inactivated twice independently by point mutations in C. rubella, leading to a loss of benzaldehyde emission. Both inactivated haplotypes can be found around the Mediterranean Sea, indicating that they arose before the species´ geographical spread. This study confirmed CNL1 as a hotspot for mutations to eliminate benzaldehyde emission, as it has been suggested by previous studies. In contrast to these findings, CNL1 in C. orientalis remains active. To test whether similar mechanisms underlie the convergent evolution of scent loss in C. orientalis a QTL mapping approach was used and the results suggest that this closely related species followed a different evolutionary route to reduce floral scent, possibly reflecting that the convergent evolution of floral scent is driven by ecological rather than genetic factors. In parallel with studying the genetic basis of repeated scent loss a method for testing the adaptive value of individual selfing syndrome traits was established. The established method allows estimating outcrossing rates with a high throughput of samples and detects successfully insect-mediated outcrossing events, providing major advantages regarding time and effort compared to other approaches. It can be applied to correlate outcrossing rates with differences in individual traits by using quasi-isogenic lines as demonstrated here or with environmental or morphological parameters. Convergent evolution can not only be observed for scent loss in Capsella but also for the morphological evolution of petal size. Previous studies detected several QTLs underlying the petal size reduction in C. orientalis and C. rubella, some of them shared among both species. One shared QTL is PAQTL1 which might map to NUBBIN, a growth factor. To better understand the morphological evolution and genetic basis of petal size reduction, this QTL was studied. Mapping this QTL to a gene might identify another example for a hotspot gene, in this case for the convergent evolution of petal size. N2 - Blütenduft stellt einen wichtigen Kommunikationsweg für Pflanzen mit ihrer Außenwelt dar, jedoch ging die Emission von Duftstoffen während des Übergangs von Bestäuber-vermittelter Auskreuzung zur Selbstung verloren oder wurde stark reduziert. Dieser Wandel des Fortpflanzungssystems wurde nicht nur vom Duftverlust begleitet, sondern auch von einer Reduktion anderer Merkmale, die Bestäuber anlocken, so zum Beispiel auch einer verringerten Blütenblattgröße. Diese veränderten Merkmale werden unter dem Begriff Selbstungssyndrom zusammengefasst und können mehrfach in der Evolution von Angiospermen beobachtet werden. Der Übergang von Auskreuzung zu Selbstung und die damit einhergehende Veränderung von Blüten stellt eines der bekanntesten Beispiele für konvergente Evolution im Pflanzenreich dar. In dieser Arbeit wurde die Gattung Capsella als Modell für die Untersuchung konvergenter Evolution genutzt, da sie zwei eng verwandte selbstbestäubende Arten enthält, die unabhängig voneinander den Übergang zur Selbstbefruchtung vollzogen. Verglichen mit dem auskreuzendem Vorfahr C. grandiflora, ist die Emission von Benzaldehyd als Hauptbestandteil des Blütenduftes in den selbstbestäubenden Arten C. rubella und C. orientalis verloren gegangen oder stark reduziert. Der Verlust von Benzaldehyd wurde in C. rubella durch Mutationen in der Cinnamat:CoA Ligase CNL1 verursacht, die biochemische Grundlage und evolutionäre Geschichte dieses Verlustes waren jedoch unbekannt, ebenso wie die genetische Grundlage für den Duftverlust von C. orientalis. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurde eine Kombination aus transformierten Pflanzen, in vitro Enzymassays, Populationsgenetik und quantitativer Genetik genutzt, um diese Fragen zu beantworten. Die Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, dass in C. rubella CNL1 zweimal unabhängig voneinander durch Punktmutationen inaktiviert wurde und diese zu einem Verlust der Benzaldehydemission führten. Beide inaktive Haplotypen können in Populationen rund um das Mittelmeer detektiert werden, was dafür spricht, dass die Mutationen auftraten, bevor sich die Art geografisch ausbreiten konnte. Diese Arbeit bestätigt, dass CNL1 ein sogenannter Hotspot für die Eliminierung der Benzaldehydemission ist, wie es schon von vorhergehenden Arbeiten angedeutet wurde. Im Gegensatz dazu verbleibt CNL1 in C. orientalis funktionsfähig. Um herauszufinden, ob bei dieser Art ähnliche Mechanismen der konvergenten Evolution zum Duftverlust führten, wurde ein QTL-Kartierungsansatz gewählt. Die Ergebnisse sprechen dafür, dass hier die Duftreduktion auf einem evolutionär anderen Weg erreicht wurde als in C. rubella, eventuell spiegelt dies wider, dass die Evolution von Blütenduft eher durch ökologische als genetische Faktoren angetrieben wird. Parallel zur Aufklärung der genetischen Basis von wiederholtem Duftverlust wurde eine Methode zum Testen des adaptiven Wertes einzelner Merkmale des Selbstungssyndromes etabliert. Diese Methode erlaubt es, Auskreuzungsraten mit einem hohen Probendurchsatz abzuschätzen, und es konnte gezeigt werden, dass sie erfolgreich Auskreuzungsereignisse detektiert, die von Insekten vermittelt wurden. Diese neue Methode bringt einige Vorteile gegenüber bisher angewandten Protokollen mit sich; sie ist wesentlich schneller und eine Vielzahl an Proben lässt sich mit deutlich geringerem Aufwand analysieren. Dies ermöglicht eine Korrelation der Auskreuzungsrate mit unterschiedlichen Merkmalen, indem, wie hier demonstriert, quasi-isogene Linien verwendet werden. Denkbar wäre auch eine Kombination mit anderen morphologischen oder ökologischen Parametern, um deren Einfluss auf die Auskreuzungsrate zu untersuchen. Konvergente Evolution kann nicht nur beim Duftverlust in der Gattung Capsella beobachtet werden, sondern auch bei der morphologischen Evolution der Petalengröße. Vorhergehende Studien fanden mehrere QTL, die der Reduktion der Petalengröße in C. rubella und C. orientalis unterliegen, manche von ihnen sind sogar in beiden Spezies zu finden. Einer der gemeinsamen QTL ist PAQTL1, der vielleicht auf NUBBIN zurückgeführt werden kann, einem Wachstumsfaktor. Um die morphologische Evolution und die genetische Grundlage der Reduktion der Petalengröße besser zu verstehen, soll dieser QTL weiter charakterisiert werden, da ihm eventuell ein Hotspot-Gen für die konvergente Evolution der Petalengröße unterliegen könnte.

Recently, empirical studies have shown that biological soil crusts are able to emit large amounts of NO and HONO, and they may therefore play an important role in the global budget of these trace gases. However, the upscaling of local estimates to the global scale is subject to large uncertainties, due to unknown spatial distribution of crust types and their dynamic metabolic activity. Here, we perform an alternative estimate of global NO and HONO emissions by biological soil crusts, using a process-based modelling approach to these organisms, combined with global data sets of climate and land cover. We thereby consider that NO and HONO are emitted in strongly different proportions, depending on the type of crust and their dynamic activity, and we provide a first estimate of the global distribution of four different crust types. Based on this, we estimate global total values of 1.04 Tg yr⁻¹ NO–N and 0.69 Tg yr⁻¹ HONO–N released by biological soil crusts. This corresponds to around 20% of global emissions of these trace gases from natural ecosystems. Due to the low number of observations on NO and HONO emissions suitable to validate the model, our estimates are still relatively uncertain. However, they are consistent with the amount estimated by the empirical approach, which confirms that biological soil crusts are likely to have a strong impact on global atmospheric chemistry via emissions of NO and HONO.

Moreover, entries connect due to simi-larities in these language domains building a large network structure. The access to lexical information is crucial for processing of words and sentences. Thus, a lack of information in-hibits the retrieval and can cause language processing difficulties. Hence, the composition of the mental lexicon is essential for language skills and its assessment is a central topic of lin-guistic and educational research. In early childhood, measurement of the mental lexicon is uncomplicated, for example through parental questionnaires or the analysis of speech samples. However, with growing content the measurement becomes more challenging: With more and more words in the mental lexicon, the inclusion of all possible known words into a test or questionnaire be-comes impossible. That is why there is a lack of methods to assess the mental lexicon for school children and adults. For the same reason, there are only few findings on the courses of lexical development during school years as well as its specific effect on other language skills. This dissertation is supposed to close this gap by pursuing two major goals: First, I wanted to develop a method to assess lexical features, namely lexicon size and lexical struc-ture, for children of different age groups. Second, I aimed to describe the results of this method in terms of lexical development of size and structure. Findings were intended to help understanding mechanisms of lexical acquisition and inform theories on vocabulary growth. The approach is based on the dictionary method where a sample of words out of a dictionary is tested and results are projected on the whole dictionary to determine an indi-vidual’s lexicon size. In the present study, the childLex corpus, a written language corpus for children in German, served as the basis for lexicon size estimation. The corpus is assumed to comprise all words children attending primary school could know. Testing a sample of words out of the corpus enables projection of the results on the whole corpus. For this purpose, a vocabulary test based on the corpus was developed. Afterwards, test performance of virtual participants was simulated by drawing different lexicon sizes from the corpus and comparing whether the test items were included in the lexicon or not. This allowed determination of the relation between test performance and total lexicon size and thus could be transferred to a sample of real participants. Besides lexicon size, lexical content could be approximated with this approach and analyzed in terms of lexical structure. To pursue the presented aims and establish the sampling method, I conducted three consecutive studies. Study 1 includes the development of a vocabulary test based on the childLex corpus. The testing was based on the yes/no format and included three versions for different age groups. The validation grounded on the Rasch Model shows that it is a valid instrument to measure vocabulary for primary school children in German. In Study 2, I estab-lished the method to estimate lexicon sizes and present results on lexical development dur-ing primary school. Plausible results demonstrate that lexical growth follows a quadratic function starting with about 6,000 words at the beginning of school and about 73,000 words on average for young adults. Moreover, the study revealed large interindividual differences. Study 3 focused on the analysis of network structures and their development in the mental lexicon due to orthographic similarities. It demonstrates that networks possess small-word characteristics and decrease in interconnectivity with age. Taken together, this dissertation provides an innovative approach for the assessment and description of the development of the mental lexicon from primary school onwards. The studies determine recent results on lexical acquisition in different age groups that were miss-ing before. They impressively show the importance of this period and display the existence of extensive interindividual differences in lexical development. One central aim of future research needs to address the causes and prevention of these differences. In addition, the application of the method for further research (e.g. the adaptation for other target groups) and teaching purposes (e.g. adaptation of texts for different target groups) appears to be promising. N2 - Das mentale Lexikon wird als individueller Speicher, der semantische, orthographi-sche und phonologische Informationen über alle bekannten Wörter enthält, verstanden. Die lexikalischen Einträge sind aufgrund von Ähnlichkeiten auf diesen Sprachebenen im Sinne einer Netzwerkstruktur verbunden. Bei der Sprachverarbeitung von Wörtern und Sätzen müssen die Informationen aus dem mentalen Lexikon abgerufen werden. Sind diese nicht oder nur teilweise vorhanden, ist der Prozess erschwert. Die Beschaffenheit des mentalen Lexikons ist damit zentral für sprachliche Fähigkeiten im Allgemeinen, welche wiederum es-senziell für den Bildungserfolg und die Teilhabe an der Gesellschaft sind. Die Erfassung des mentalen Lexikons und die Beschreibung seiner Entwicklung ist demnach ein wichtiger Schwerpunkt linguistischer Forschung. Im frühen Kindesalter ist es noch relativ einfach, den Umfang und Inhalt des menta-len Lexikons eines Individuums zu erfassen – dies kann beispielsweise durch Befragung der Eltern oder durch Aufzeichnung von Äußerungen erfolgen. Mit steigendem Inhalt wird diese Messung allerdings schwieriger: Umso mehr Wörter im mentalen Lexikon gespeichert sind, umso unmöglicher wird es, sie alle abzufragen bzw. zu testen. Dies führt dazu, dass es nur wenige Methoden zur Erfassung lexikalischer Eigenschaften nach Schuleintritt gibt. Aus die-sem Grund bestehen auch nur wenige aktuelle Erkenntnisse über den Verlauf der lexikali-schen Entwicklung in diesem Alter sowie deren spezifischen Einfluss auf andere (sprachliche) Fähigkeiten. Diese Lücke sollte in der vorliegenden Dissertation geschlossen werden. Dazu wurden zwei Ziele verfolgt: Zum einen sollte eine aussagekräftige Methode entwickelt wer-den, mit der Umfang und Inhalt des Wortschatzes von Kindern im Grundschulalter bis ins Erwachsenenalter bestimmt werden können. Zum anderen sollten die Ergebnisse der Me-thode dazu dienen, den lexikalischen Erwerb nach Schuleintritt genauer zu beschreiben und zu verstehen. Dabei wurde neben der Entwicklung der Lexikongröße auch die Struktur des Lexikons, d.h. die Vernetzung der Einträge untereinander, betrachtet. Die grundsätzliche Idee der Arbeit beruht auf der Wörterbuch-Methode, bei der eine Auswahl an Wörtern aus einem Wörterbuch getestet und die Ergebnisse auf das gesamte Wörterbuch übertragen werden, um die Lexikongröße einer Person zu bestimmen. In der vorliegenden Dissertation diente das childLex Korpus, das die linguistische Umwelt von Grundschulkindern enthält, als Grundlage. Zunächst wurde ein Wortschatztest entwickelt, der auf dem Korpus basiert. Anschließend wurde das Testverhalten von virtuellen Versuchs-personen simuliert, indem verschiedene Lexikongrößen aus dem Korpus gezogen wurden und überprüft wurde, welche der Items aus dem Wortschatztest in den Lexika enthalten waren. Dies ermöglichte die Bestimmung der Beziehung zwischen dem Verhalten im Wort-schatztest und der absoluten Lexikongröße und ließ sich dann auf tatsächliche Studienteil-nehmer übertragen. Neben der Wortschatzgröße konnten mit dieser Methode auch der wahrscheinliche Inhalt des mentalen Lexikons und so die Vernetzung des Lexikons zu ver-schiedenen Entwicklungszeitpunkten bestimmt werden. Drei Studien wurden konzipiert, um die vorgestellten Ziele zu erreichen und die prä-sentierte Methode zu etablieren. Studie 1 diente der Entwicklung des Wortschatztests, der auf den childLex Korpus beruht. Hierzu wurde das Ja/Nein-Testformat gewählt und ver-schiedene Versionen für unterschiedliche Altersgruppen erstellt. Die Validierung mithilfe des Rasch-Modells zeigt, dass der Test ein aussagekräftiges Instrument für die Erfassung des Wortschatzes von Grundschuldkindern im Deutschen darstellt. In Studie 2 werden der da-rauf basierende Mechanismus zur Schätzung von Lexikongrößen sowie Ergebnisse zu deren Entwicklung vom Grundschul- bis ins Erwachsenenalter präsentiert. Es ergaben sich plausible Ergebnisse in Bezug auf die Wortschatzentwicklung, die einer quadratischen Funktion folgt und mit etwa 6000 Wörtern in der ersten Klasse beginnt und im Durschnitt 73.000 Wörter im jungen Erwachsenenalter erreicht. Studie 3 befasste sich mit den lexikalischen Inhalten in Bezug auf die Netzwerkstruktur des mentalen Lexikons in verschiedenen Altersgruppen. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die orthographische Vernetzung des mentalen Lexikons im Erwerb ab-nimmt. Zusammengenommen liefert die Dissertation damit einen innovativen Ansatz zur Messung und Beschreibung der Entwicklung des mentalen Lexikons in der späteren Kind-heit. Die Studien bieten aktuelle Ergebnisse zum lexikalischen Erwerb in einer Altersgruppe, in der dazu bisher wenige Erkenntnisse vorlagen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eindrücklich, wie wichtig diese Phase für den Wortschatzerwerb ist und legen außerdem nahe, dass es starke interindividuelle Unterschiede im lexikalischen Erwerb gibt. Diesen entgegenzuwirken ist eines der Ziele zukünftiger Forschung und Bildung. Zudem ergeben sich aus der Dissertation vielfältige Möglichkeiten zur Anwendung der Methode sowohl zu Forschungszwecken, z.B. in Bezug auf die Übertragung auf andere Zielgruppen und den Effekt der Ergebnisse auf an-dere Fähigkeiten, als auch für die pädagogische Arbeit, z.B. für die Anpassung von Texten an bestimmte Zielgruppen.

Die Verbrennung dieser kohlenstoffbasierten Brennstoffe führt unweigerlich zur Freisetzung von Treibhausgasen, vor allem von CO2. Die CO2 Aufnahme unmittelbar bei den Verbrennungsanlagen oder direkt aus der Luft, zusammen mit Regulierung von CO2 produzierenden Energiesektoren (z.B. Kühlanlagen), können den CO2 Ausstoß reduzieren. Allerdings führen insbesondere bei der CO2 Aufnahme die geringen CO2 Konzentrationen und die Aufnahme konkurrierender Gase zu niedrigen CO2 Kapazitäten und Selektivitäten. Das Zusammenspiel der Gastmoleküle mit porösen Materialien ist dabei essentiell. Poröse Kohlenstoffmaterialien besitzen attraktive Eigenschaften, unter anderem elektrische Leitfähigkeit, einstellbare Porosität, als auch chemische und thermische Stabilität. Allerdings führt die zu geringe Polarisierbarkeit dieser Materialien zu einer geringen Affinität zu polaren Molekülen (z.B. CO2, H2O, oder NH3). Diese Affinität kann durch den Einbau von Stickstoff erhöht werden. Solche Materialien sind oft „edler“ als reine Kohlenstoffe, dies bedeutet, dass sie eher oxidierend wirken, als selbst oxidiert zu werden. Die Problematik besteht darin, einen hohen und gleichmäßig verteilten Stickstoffgehalt in das Kohlenstoffgerüst einzubauen. Die Zielsetzung dieser Dissertation ist die Erforschung neuer Synthesewege für stickstoffdotierte edle Kohlenstoffmaterialien und die Entwicklung eines grundlegenden Verständnisses für deren Anwendung in Gasadsorption und elektrochemischer Energiespeicherung. Es wurde eine templatfreie Synthese für stickstoffreiche, edle, und mikroporöse Kohlenstoffmaterialien durch direkte Kondensation eines stickstoffreichen organischen Moleküls als Vorläufer erarbeitet. Dadurch konnten Materialien mit hohen Adsorptionskapazitäten für H2O und CO2 bei niedrigen Konzentrationen und moderate CO2/N2 Selektivitäten erzielt werden. Um die CO2/N2 Selektivitäten zu verbessern, wurden mittels der Einstellung des Kondensationsgrades die molekulare Struktur und Porosität der Kohlenstoffmaterialien kontrolliert. Diese Materialien besitzen die Eigenschaften eines molekularen Siebs für CO2 über N2, das zu herausragenden CO2/N2 Selektivitäten führt. Der ultrahydrophile Charakter der Porenoberflächen und die kleinen Mikroporen dieser Kohlenstoffmaterialien ermöglichen grundlegende Untersuchungen für die Wechselwirkungen mit Molekülen die polarer sind als CO2, nämlich H2O und NH3. Eine weitere Reihe stickstoffdotierter Kohlenstoffmaterialien wurde durch Kondensation eines konjugierten mikroporösen Polymers synthetisiert und deren strukturelle Besonderheiten als Anodenmaterial für die Natriumionen Batterie untersucht. Diese Dissertation leistet einen Beitrag zur Erforschung stickstoffdotierter Kohlenstoffmaterialien und deren Wechselwirkungen mit verschiedenen Gastmolekülen. N2 - The growing energy demand of the modern economies leads to the increased consumption of fossil fuels in form of coal, oil, and natural gases, as the mains sources. The combustion of these carbon-based fossil fuels is inevitably producing greenhouse gases, especially CO2. Approaches to tackle the CO2 problem are to capture it from the combustion sources or directly from air, as well as to avoid CO2 production in energy consuming sources (e.g., in the refrigeration sector). In the former, relatively low CO2 concentrations and competitive adsorption of other gases is often leading to low CO2 capacities and selectivities. In both approaches, the interaction of gas molecules with porous materials plays a key role. Porous carbon materials possess unique properties including electric conductivity, tunable porosity, as well as thermal and chemical stability. Nevertheless, pristine carbon materials offer weak polarity and thus low CO2 affinity. This can be overcome by nitrogen doping, which enhances the affinity of carbon materials towards acidic or polar guest molecules (e.g., CO2, H2O, or NH3). In contrast to heteroatom-free materials, such carbon materials are in most cases “noble”, that is, they oxidize other matter rather than being oxidized due to the very positive working potential of their electrons. The challenging task here is to achieve homogenous distribution of significant nitrogen content with similar bonding motives throughout the carbon framework and a uniform pore size/distribution to maximize host-guest interactions. The aim of this thesis is the development of novel synthesis pathways towards nitrogen-doped nanoporous noble carbon materials with precise design on a molecular level and understanding of their structure-related performance in energy and environmental applications, namely gas adsorption and electrochemical energy storage. A template-free synthesis approach towards nitrogen-doped noble microporous carbon materials with high pyrazinic nitrogen content and C2N-type stoichiometry was established via thermal condensation of a hexaazatriphenylene derivative. The materials exhibited high uptake of guest molecules, such as H2O and CO2 at low concentrations, as well as moderate CO2/N2 selectivities. In the following step, the CO2/N2 selectivity was enhanced towards molecular sieving of CO2 via kinetic size exclusion of N2. The precise control over the condensation degree, and thus, atomic construction and porosity of the resulting materials led to remarkable CO2/N2 selectivities, CO2 capacities, and heat of CO2 adsorption. The ultrahydrophilic nature of the pore walls and the narrow microporosity of these carbon materials served as ideal basis for the investigation of interface effects with more polar guest molecules than CO2, namely H2O and NH3. H2O vapor physisorption measurements, as well as NH3-temperature programmed desorption and thermal response measurements showed exceptionally high affinity towards H2O vapor and NH3 gas. Another series of nitrogen-doped carbon materials was synthesized by direct condensation of a pyrazine-fused conjugated microporous polymer and their structure-related performance in electrochemical energy storage, namely as anode materials for sodium-ion battery, was investigated. All in all, the findings in this thesis exemplify the value of molecularly designed nitrogen-doped carbon materials with remarkable heteroatom content implemented as well-defined structure motives. The simultaneous adjustment of the porosity renders these materials suitable candidates for fundamental studies about the interactions between nitrogen-doped carbon materials and different guest species.

A classical approach to control biochemical reactions non-invasivly is by changing the temperature. However, if the pH could be controlled by optical means using photo-active chemicals, this would mean to be able to accelerate suitable biochemical reactions. Optically switching the pH can be achieved by using photoacids. A photoacid is a molecule with a functional group that releases a proton upon irradiation with the suitable wavelength, acidifying the environmental aqueous surrounding. A major goal of this work was to establish a non-invasive method of optically controlling the pH in aqueous solutions, offering the opportunity to enhance the known chemical reactions portfolio. To demonstrate the photo-switchable pH cycling we chose an enzymatic assay using acid phosphatase, which is an enzyme with a strong pH dependent activity. Results In this work we could demonstrate a light-induced, reversible control of the enzymatic activity of acid phosphatase non-invasivly. To successfully conduct those experiments a high power LED array was designed and built, suitable for a 96 well standard microtiter plate, not being commercially available. Heat management and a lateral ventilation system to avoid heat accumulation were established and a stable light intensity achieved. Different photoacids were characterised and their pH dependent absorption spectra recorded. By using the reversible photoacid G-acid as a proton donor, the pH can be changed reversibly using high power UV 365 nm LEDs. To demonstrate the pH cycling, acid phosphatase with hydrolytic activity under acidic conditions was chosen. An assay using the photoacid together with the enzyme was established, also providing that G-acid does not inhibit acid phosphatase. The feasibility of reversibly regulating the enzyme’s pH dependent activity by optical means was demonstrated, by controlling the enzymatic activity with light. It was demonstrated that the enzyme activity depends on the light exposure time only. When samples are not illuminated and left in the dark, no enzymatic activity was recorded. The process can be rapidly controlled by simply switching the light on and off and should be applicable to a wide range of enzymes and biochemical reactions. Conclusions Reversible photoacids offer a light-dependent regulation of pH, making them extremely attractive for miniaturizable, non-invasive and time-resolved control of biochemical reactions. Many enzymes have a sharp pH dependent activity, thus the established setup in this thesis could be used for a versatile enzyme portfolio. Even though the demonstrated photo-switchable strategy could also be used for non-enzymatic assays, greatly facilitating the assay establishment. Photoacids have the potential for high throughput methods and automation. We demonstrated that it is possible to control photoacids using commonly available LEDs, making their use in highly integrated devices and instruments more attractive. The successfully designed 96 well high power UV LED array presents an opportunity for general combinatorial analysis in e.g. photochemistry, where a high light intensity is needed for the investigation of various reactions. N2 - Hintergrund Viele biochemische Reaktionen hängen vom pH-Wert ihrer Umgebung ab. Einige werden in einer sauren Umgebung stark beschleunigt. Ein klassischer Kontrollansatz nicht-invasiver biochemischer Reaktionen stellt die Änderung der Temperatur dar. Wenn jedoch der pH-Wert durch photoaktiven Chemikalien optisch gesteuert werden könnte, wäre es möglich geeignete biochemische Reaktionen zu beschleunigen. Die optische Steuerung des pH-Wertes kann durch die Verwendung von Photosäuren erfolgen. Eine Photosäure ist ein Molekül mit einer funktionellen Gruppe, welche bei Bestrahlung mit der geeigneten Wellenlänge ein Proton freisetzt und somit wässrige Umgebung ansäuert. Ein Hauptziel dieser Arbeit war es, eine nicht-invasive Methode zu etablieren und ein Verfahren zur optischen Kontrolle des pH-Wertes in wässrigen Lösungen zu entwickeln und somit das Portfolio biochemischer Reaktionen zu erweitern. Zur Demonstration der optischen Kontrolle des pH-Wertes wurde ein enzymatisches Assay mit der Verwendung von saurer Phosphatase gewählt. Dieses Enzym hat eine pH-abhängige Aktivität. Ergebnisse In dieser Arbeit konnte eine lichtinduzierte, nicht-invasive, reversible Kontrolle der enzymatischen Aktivität der sauren Phosphatase demonstriert werden. Um diese erfolgreich durchzuführen wurde ein Hochleistungs-LED-Array entworfen und gebaut, welches für standard 96er Mikrotiterplatten geeignet ist. So ein LED-Array ist nicht im Handel erhältlich. Zum Wärmemanagement wurde unter anderem ein seitliches Belüftungssystem zur Vermeidung von Wärmestau eingerichtet und somit eine stabile Licht Intensität erreicht. Verschiedene Photosäuren wurden charakterisiert und deren pH-abhängiges Absorptionsspektren aufgezeichnet. Unter Verwendung der reversiblen Photosäure G-Säure als Protonendonor kann der pH Wert mit Hilfe des Hochleistungs-LED-Arrays reversibel geändert werden. Um den schaltbaren pH- Wechsel zu demonstrieren wurde die saure Phosphatase, welche unter sauren pH Wert hydrolytische Aktivität zeigt, gewählt. Ein Assay, bei dem die Photosäure zusammen mit dem Enzym verwendet wurde zeigt, dass G-Säure die saure Phosphatase nicht hemmt. Die reversible Regelung der pH-abhängigen Aktivität des Enzyms durch optische Kontrolle wurde nachgewiesen. Es wurde gezeigt, dass die Enzymaktivität allein von der Belichtungszeit abhängig ist. Wenn die Proben nicht beleuchtet wurden und im Dunkeln blieben, wurde keine enzymatische Aktivität aufgezeichnet. Der Prozess kann einfach und schnell gesteuert durch Ein- und Ausschalten des Lichts gesteuert werden und sollte auf eine Vielzahl von Enzymen und biochemischen Reaktionen anwendbar sein. Schlussfolgerungen Reversible Photosäuren ermöglichen eine lichtabhängige Regulierung des pH-Wertes. Sie sind äußerst attraktiv für miniaturisierbare, nicht invasive und zeitaufgelöste Steuerung von biochemischen Reaktionen. Viele Enzyme haben eine starke pH-abhängige Aktivität, daher könnte der in dieser Arbeit etablierte für ein vielseitiges Enzymportfolio verwendet werden. Die vorgestellte photo-schaltbare-Strategie könnte jedoch auch für nicht-enzymatische verwendet werden. Photosäuren haben das Potenzial für Hochdurchsatzverfahren und Automatisierung. Wir haben gezeigt, dass es möglich ist Photosäuren mit handelsüblichen LEDs, zu kontrollieren. Damit ist eine integration in Handelsübliche Geräte möglich. Das erfolgreich designte 96 Well Hochleisuntg- LED-Array bietet eine Möglichkeit zur allgemeinen kombinatorischen Analyse in z.B. Photochemie, wo eine hohe Lichtintensität für die Untersuchung verschiedener Reaktionen benötigt wird.

Accordingly, different running shoe companies designed anti-pronation shoes with medial support to limit over pronation in runners. However, there is little evidence on the effectiveness and clinical relevance of anti-pronation shoes. This study examined lower limb kinematics and kinetics in young female runners with pronated feet during running with antipronation versus regular (neutral) running shoes in unfatigued and fatigued condition. Twenty-six female runners aged 24.1±5.6 years with pronated feet volunteered to participate in this study. Kinetic (3D Kistler force plate) and kinematic analyses (Vicon motion analysis system) were conducted to record participants’ ground reaction forces and joint kinematics when running with anti-pronation compared with neutral running shoes. Physical fatigue was induced through an individualized submaximal running protocol on a motorized treadmill using rate of perceived exertion and heart rate monitoring. The statistical analyses indicated significant main effects of “footwear” for peak ankle inversion, peak ankle eversion, and peak hip internal rotation angles (p<0.03; d = 0.46–0.95). Pair-wise comparisons revealed a significantly greater peak ankle inversion angle (p<0.03; d = 0.95; 2.70°) and smaller peak eversion angle (p<0.03; d = 0.46; 2.53°) when running with anti-pronation shoes compared with neutral shoes. For kinetic data, significant main effects of “footwear” were found for peak ankle dorsiflexor moment, peak knee extensor moment, peak hip flexor moment, peak hip extensor moment, peak hip abductor moment, and peak hip internal rotator moment (p<0.02; d = 1.00–1.79). For peak positive hip power in sagittal and frontal planes and peak negative hip power in horizontal plane, we observed significant main effects of “footwear” (p<0.03; d = 0.92–1.06). Pairwise comparisons revealed that peak positive hip power in sagittal plane (p<0.03; d = 0.98; 2.39 w/kg), peak positive hip power in frontal plane (p = 0.014; d = 1.06; 0.54 w/kg), and peak negative hip power in horizontal plane (p<0.03; d = 0.92; 0.43 w/kg) were greater with anti-pronation shoes. Furthermore, the statistical analyses indicated significant main effects of “Fatigue” for peak ankle inversion, peak ankle eversion, and peak knee external rotation angles. Pair-wise comparisons revealed a fatigue-induced decrease in peak ankle inversion angle (p<0.01; d = 1.23; 2.69°) and a fatigue-induced increase in peak knee external rotation angle (p<0.05; d = 0.83; 5.40°). In addition, a fatigue-related increase was found for peak ankle eversion (p<0.01; d = 1.24; 2.67°). For kinetic data, we observed a significant main effect of “Fatigue” for knee flexor moment, knee internal rotator moment, and hip extensor moment (p<0.05; d = 0.83–1.01). The statistical analyses indicated significant a main effect of “Fatigue” for peak negative ankle power in sagittal plane (p<0.01; d = 1.25). Finally, we could not detect any significant footwear by fatigue interaction effects for all measures of joint kinetics and kinematics. Running in anti-pronation compared with neutral running shoes produced lower peak moments and powers in lower limb joints and better control in rear foot eversion. Physical fatigue increased peak moments and powers in lower limb joints irrespective of the type of footwear.

Ore formation is dependent on various factors, including, the pressure and temperature regime of the intrusions, the chemical composition of the magma and hydrothermal fluids, and fluid rock interaction during the ascent. Fluid inclusions have potential to provide direct information on the temperature, salinity, pressure and chemical composition of fluids responsible for ore formation. Numerical modeling allows the parametrization of pluton features that cannot be analyzed directly via geological observations. Microthermometry of fluid inclusions from the Zinnwald Sn-W deposit, Erzgebirge, Germany / Czech Republic, provide evidence that the greisen mineralization is associated with a low salinity (2-10 wt.% NaCl eq.) fluid with homogenization temperatures between 350°C and 400°C. Quartzes from numerous veins are host to inclusions with the same temperatures and salinities, whereas cassiterite- and wolframite-hosted assemblages with slightly lower temperatures (around 350°C) and higher salinities (ca. 15 wt. NaCl eq.). Further, rare quartz samples contained boiling assemblages consisting of coexisting brine and vapor phases. The formation of ore minerals within the greisen is driven by invasive fluid-rock interaction, resulting in the loss of complexing agents (Cl-) leading to precipitation of cassiterite. The fluid inclusion record in the veins suggests boiling as the main reason for cassiterite and wolframite mineralization. Ore and coexisting gangue minerals hosted different types of fluid inclusions where the beginning boiling processes are solely preserved by the ore minerals emphasizing the importance of microthermometry in ore minerals. Further, the study indicates that boiling as a precipitation mechanism can only occur in mineralization related to shallow intrusions whereas deeper plutons prevent the fluid from boiling and can therefore form tungsten mineralization in the distal regions. The tin mineralization in the Hämmerlein deposit, Erzgebirge, Germany, occurs within a skarn horizon and the underlying schist. Cassiterite within the skarn contains highly saline (30-50 wt% NaCl eq.) fluid inclusions, with homogenization temperatures up to 500°C, whereas cassiterites from the schist and additional greisen samples contain inclusions of lower salinity (~5 wt% NaCl eq.) and temperature (between 350 and 400°C). Inclusions in the gangue minerals (quartz, fluorite) preserve homogenization temperatures below 350°C and sphalerite showed the lowest homogenization temperatures (ca. 200°C) whereby all minerals (cassiterite from schist and greisen, gangue minerals and sphalerite) show similar salinity ranges (2-5 wt% NaCl eq.). Similar trace element contents and linear trends in the chemistry of the inclusions suggest a common source fluid. The inclusion record in the Hämmerlein deposit documents an early exsolution of hot brines from the underlying granite which is responsible for the mineralization hosted by the skarn. Cassiterites in schist and greisen are mainly forming due to fluid-rock interaction at lower temperatures. The low temperature inclusions documented in the sphalerite mineralization as well as their generally low trace element composition in comparison to the other minerals suggests that their formation was induced by mixing with meteoric fluids. Numerical simulations of magma chambers and overlying copper distribution document the importance of incremental growth by sills. We analyzed the cooling behavior at variable injection intervals as well as sill thicknesses. The models suggest that magma accumulation requires volumetric injection rates of at least 4 x 10-4 km³/y. These injection rates are further needed to form a stable magmatic-hydrothermal fluid plume above the magma chamber to ensure a constant copper precipitation and enrichment within a confined location in order to form high-grade ore shells within a narrow geological timeframe between 50 and 100 kyrs as suggested for porphyry copper deposits. The highest copper enrichment can be found in regions with steep temperature gradients, typical of regions where the magmatic-hydrothermal fluid meets the cooler ambient fluids. N2 - Magmatisch-hydrothermale Fluide sind verantwortlich für zahlreiche Mineralisationstypen, wie porphyrische Kupferlagerstätten und granitgebundene Zinn-Wolfram (Sn-W) Lagerstätten. Die Lagerstättenbildung ist abhängig von unterschiedlichen Faktoren, z.B. dem Druck- und Temperaturregime der Intrusion, der chemischen Zusammensetzung des Magmas und der hydrothermalen Fluide sowie den Fluid-Gesteinsreaktionen während des Aufstiegs der Fluide. Flüssigkeitseinschlüsse haben das Potential, direkte Informationen zur Temperatur, zum Salzgehalt, zum Druck und der Chemie der Fluide, welche für die Lagerstättenbildung verantwortlich sind, zu liefern. Außerdem erlauben numerische Modellierungen die Parametrisierung der Plutoneigenschaften, die nicht direkt anhand von geologischen Beobachtungen analysiert werden können. Mikrothermometrie von Flüssigkeitseinschlüssen der Zinnwald Sn-W Lagerstätte zeigen, dass die Vergreisung an ein schwach salzhaltiges (2-10 wt.% NaCl eq.) Fluid gebunden ist, das zwischen 350°C und 400°C homogenisiert. Quarze der diversen Gänge beinhalten Einschlüsse mit den gleichen Temperaturen und Salzgehalten, wohingegen Kassiterit und Wolframit Einschlüsse mit niedrigeren Temperaturen (um 350°C) und höheren Salzgehalten zeigen (ca. 15 wt. NaCl eq.). Seltene Quarzproben enthalten kochende Einschluss-Ansammlungen, die aus koexistierenden salzreichen Lösungen und gasreichen Phasen bestehen. Die Bildung der Erzminerale des Greisens entsteht durch tiefgreifende Fluid-Gesteinsreaktionen, die den Verlust des Komplexbildners (Cl-) zur Folge haben, wodurch Kassiterit ausgefällt wird. Die Einschlüsse in den Gängen verdeutlichen, dass kochende Fluide der Hauptgrund für die Kassiterit– und Wolframit–Mineralisation sind. Erz- und benachbarte Gangminerale beinhalten unterschiedliche Einschlusstypen, wobei die beginnende Phasenseparation ausschließlich in den Erzmineralen erhalten ist, wodurch die Bedeutung der Mikrothermometrie in Erzmineralen hervorgehoben wird. Die Studie verdeutlicht weiterhin, dass Phasenseparation als Ausfällungsmechanismus nur in Lagerstätten gefunden werden können, die an flache Intrusionen gebunden sind, wohingegen tiefsitzende Granite die Phasenseparation verhindern. Dies hat zur Folge, dass eine Wolfram–Vererzung eher distal zur Intrusion auftritt. Die Zinn-Mineralisation der Hämmerlein Lagerstätte tritt sowohl in einem Skarn–Horizont als auch im darunterliegenden Schiefer auf. Fluideinschlüsse in Kassiteriten des Skarns enthalten Fluide mit hohem Salzgehhalt (30-50 wt% NaCl eq.) und Homogenisierungstemperaturen von bis zu 500°C, wohingegen Kassiterite des Schiefers (und von zusätzlichen Greisenproben) Einschlüsse mit geringerem Salzgehalt (~5 wt% NaCl eq.) und geringeren Temperaturen (zwischen 350 und 400°C) enthalten. Einschlüsse in Gangmineralen (Quarz, Fluorit) zeigen Homogenisierungstemperaturen von unter 350°C und Einschlüsse in Sphaleriten konservieren die niedrigsten gemessenen Temperaturen (ca. 200°C). Allerdings haben Flüssigkeitseinschlüsse in allen Mineralen (Kassiterite der Schiefer und Greisen, Gangminerale und Sphalerit) einen annähernd gleichen Salzgehalt (2-5 wt% NaCl eq.). Ähnliche Spurenelementgehalte und lineare Trends in der Chemie der Einschlüsse deuten auf ein gemeinsames Ursprungsfluid hin. Die Einschlüsse in der Hämmerlein-Lagerstätte dokumentieren eine frühe Entmischung von heißen Fluiden mit hohem Salzgehalt aus dem darunterliegenden Granit, die für die Mineralisation im Skarn verantwortlich ist. Die Kassiterite der Schiefer und der Greisen formen sich hauptsächlich durch Fluid-Gesteinsreaktionen bei niedrigeren Temperaturen. Die Niedrigtemperatureinschlüsse in Sphalerit und die im Vergleich zu den anderen Mineralen niedrigen Spurenelementgehalte deuten auf eine Bildung aufgrund von Mischungsprozessen mit meteorischen Fluiden hin. Numerische Simulationen von Magmenkammern und deren darüber gelegenen Kupferverteilungen dokumentieren die Wichtigkeit des schrittweisen Wachstums einer Intrusion durch Sills. Wir untersuchten das Abkühlungsverhalten bei unterschiedlichen Injektionsintervallen sowie bei unterschiedlicher Mächtigkeit des Sills. Die Modelle deuten darauf hin, dass für die Bildung der Magmakammer eine Injektionsrate von mindestens ca. 4 x 10-4 km³/y benötigt wird. Solche Raten sind ebenfalls nötig um eine kontinuierliche Bildung von magmatisch-hydrothermalen Fluiden zu garantieren, denn nur dann können sich hoch vererzte Bereiche in einem kurzen geologischen Zeitraum von 50.000 bis 100.000 Jahren bilden, so wie es für porphyrische Kupferlagerstätten angenommen wird. Die höchsten Kupfergehalte bilden sich in Regionen mit steilem Temperaturgradient, also vor allem in Bereichen, wo das magmatisch-hydrothermale Fluid auf kältere meteorische Fluide trifft.

While social and economic development in recent years altered the flood risk patterns mainly with regard to an increase in flood exposure, different flood events are further expected to increase in frequency and severity in certain European regions due to climate change. As a result of recent major flood events in Germany, the German flood risk management shifted to more integrated approaches that include private precaution and preparation to reduce the damage on exposed assets. Yet, detailed insights into the preparedness decisions of flood-prone households remain scarce, especially in connection to mental impacts and individual coping strategies after being affected by different flood types. This thesis aims to gain insights into flash floods as a costly hazard in certain German regions and compares the damage driving factors to the damage driving factors of river floods. Furthermore, psychological impacts as well as the effects on coping and mitigation behaviour of flood-affected households are assessed. In this context, psychological models such as the Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) and methods such as regressions and Bayesian statistics are used to evaluate influencing factors on the mental coping after an event and to identify psychological variables that are connected to intended private flood mitigation. The database consists of surveys that were conducted among affected households after major river floods in 2013 and flash floods in 2016. The main conclusions that can be drawn from this thesis reveal that the damage patterns and damage driving factors of strong flash floods differ significantly from those of river floods due to a rapid flow origination process, higher flow velocities and flow forces. However, the effects on mental coping of people that have been affected by flood events appear to be weakly influenced by different flood types, but yet show a coherence to the event severity, where often thinking of the respective event is pronounced and also connected to a higher mitigation motivation. The mental coping and preparation after floods is further influenced by a good information provision and a social environment, which encourages a positive attitude towards private mitigation. As an overall recommendation, approaches for an integrated flood risk management in Germany should be followed that also take flash floods into account and consider psychological characteristics of affected households to support and promote private flood mitigation. Targeted information campaigns that concern coping options and discuss current flood risks are important to better prepare for future flood hazards in Germany. N2 - Hochwasser zählen zu den schadensträchtigsten Naturgefahren, die in Europa und Deutschland vorkommen. In Deutschland traten in den letzten Jahren einige sehr starke Hochwasser und Überflutungen auf, die die Einstufung von Hochwassern als gefährliche Naturgewalt bestätigten. Private Haushalte leiden unter finanziellen und persönlichen Verlusten und sind sogar teilweise mehrfach betroffen. Folgenreiche Hochwasser, die im Gedächtnis blieben, waren insbesondere das Elbe-Hochwasser im Sommer 2002 sowie Überschwemmungen mit Schwerpukten an Elbe und Donau im Juni 2013. Im Mai und Juni 2016 kam es zu heftigen Unwettern über Zentraleuropa, während insbesondere Süddeutschland von Starkregen und Sturzfluten betroffen war. Hierbei wurden vereinzelte Ortschaften in Baden-Württtemberg (vor allem Braunsbach) und Bayern (vor allem Simbach am Inn) von extremen Sturzfluten beeinträchtigt und Bauwerke stark beschädigt. Als Reaktion auf die Flusshochwasser 2002 und 2013 wurde unter anderem das aktuelle Hochwasserrisikomanagement in Deutschland so angepasst, dass neben übergeordneten und technischen Hochwasserschutzmaßnahmen auch auf lokaler Ebene Maßnahmen ergriffen werden müssen. Diese umfassen Hochwasservorsorgemaßnahmen, die betroffene Haushalte selbst implementieren sollen. Neben strukturellen Maßnahmen wie z.B. der Verlegung von Heizung, Elektronik und Öltank in nicht-gefährdete Stockwerke sowie dem Schutz des Gebäudes vor Eindringen von Wasser, können auch nichtstrukturelle Maßnahmen, wie z.B. eine angepasste Wohnraumnutzung und das Verwenden von geeigneter Inneneinrichtung, ergriffen werden, um Hochwasserschäden signifikant zu verringern. Bis heute ist es jedoch unklar, aus welchen Gründen sich die betroffenen Menschen für Hochwasservorsorgemaßnahmen entscheiden und wie die individuelle Motivation, Maßnahmen zu implementieren, verstärkt werden kann. Neben dem Wissen um die eigene Hochwassergefährdung ist anzunehmen, dass die Selbsteinschätzung in Bezug auf einen wirksamen Umgang mit Hochwassern ausschlaggebend für die Motivation zur Vorsorge ist. Außerdem kann davon ausgegangen werden, dass verschiedene Hochwassertypen wie Flusshochwasser und Sturzfluten mit ihren unterschiedlichen Dynamiken unterschiedliche Auswirkungen auf die mentale Bewältigung und somit auch auf das Vorsorgeverhalten hervorrufen. Die vorliegende Arbeit hat demnach zum Ziel, Flusshochwasser und Sturzfluten in Deutschland miteinander zu vergleichen, wobei der Fokus auf schadenstreibenden Faktoren und psychologischen Auswirkungen auf betroffene Haushalte liegt. Weiterhin sollen damit verbundenes Vorsorgeverhalten untersucht und gegebenenfalls Handlungsempfehlungen für das Hochwasserrisikomanagement abgeleitet werden, das einerseits psychologische Charakteristika und andererseits Sturzfluten als signifikante Naturgefahr in Deutschland miteinbezieht. Hierbei werden sozio-ökonomische, zwischenmenschliche und psychologische Variablen von Haushalten ausgewertet, die 2013 und 2016 von Flusshochwassern und Sturzfluten betroffen waren. Dabei kommen verschiedene Methoden (Regressionen, Bayessche Statistik) und Modelle (Protection Motivation Theory) zum Einsatz, um Verbindungen zwischen den Variablen aufzeigen. Die Ergebnisse veranschaulichen erstens, dass Flusshochwasser und Sturzfluten zwar unterschiedliche Schäden an Gebäuden aufgrund verschiedener Flutdynamiken hervorrufen können, was sich bei Betroffenen jedoch nicht in unterschiedlichen psychologischen Auswirkungen widerspiegelt. Vielmehr ist die jeweilige Stärke und Schwere des Hochwassers entscheidend für charakteristische Ausprägungen von psychologischen Variablen. In diesem Falle sorgt eine stärkere Flut dafür, dass häufiger an das jeweilige Ereignis gedacht wird, während die Motivation zur Eigenvorsorge in solchen Fällen erhöht scheint. Zweitens sind ein soziales Umfeld, in dem bereits Vorsorgemaßnahmen implementiert wurden, sowie hilfreiche Informationen für geeignete Maßnahmen, deren Kosten und Aufklärung über das aktuelle Hochwasserrisiko förderlich für die Motivation, private Vorsorge zu betreiben. Ein aktuelles Hochwasserrisikomanagement sollte demnach auch Sturzfluten als mögliches Risiko in Deutschland miteinbeziehen und mehr in die Aufklärung und private Unterstützung bei Hochwassern investieren. Ein besseres Verstehen von psychologischen und mentalen Auswirkungen von verschiedenen Hochwassertypen hat den Vorteil, dass Hilfe und Informationskampagnen individuell und effizient gestaltet, Schäden minimiert und Schadensprognosen aufgrund der genaueren Kenntnisse über Vorsorgeverhalten verbessert werden können.

However, since many optimization problems are hard, it is unrealistic to expect an optimal solution within reasonable time. Hence, heuristics are employed, that is, computer programs that try to produce solutions of high quality quickly. One special class are estimation-of-distribution algorithms (EDAs), which are characterized by maintaining a probabilistic model over the problem domain, which they evolve over time. In an iterative fashion, an EDA uses its model in order to generate a set of solutions, which it then uses to refine the model such that the probability of producing good solutions is increased. In this thesis, we theoretically analyze the class of univariate EDAs over the Boolean domain, that is, over the space of all length-n bit strings. In this setting, the probabilistic model of a univariate EDA consists of an n-dimensional probability vector where each component denotes the probability to sample a 1 for that position in order to generate a bit string. My contribution follows two main directions: first, we analyze general inherent properties of univariate EDAs. Second, we determine the expected run times of specific EDAs on benchmark functions from theory. In the first part, we characterize when EDAs are unbiased with respect to the problem encoding. We then consider a setting where all solutions look equally good to an EDA, and we show that the probabilistic model of an EDA quickly evolves into an incorrect model if it is always updated such that it does not change in expectation. In the second part, we first show that the algorithms cGA and MMAS-fp are able to efficiently optimize a noisy version of the classical benchmark function OneMax. We perturb the function by adding Gaussian noise with a variance of σ², and we prove that the algorithms are able to generate the true optimum in a time polynomial in σ² and the problem size n. For the MMAS-fp, we generalize this result to linear functions. Further, we prove a run time of Ω(n log(n)) for the algorithm UMDA on (unnoisy) OneMax. Last, we introduce a new algorithm that is able to optimize the benchmark functions OneMax and LeadingOnes both in O(n log(n)), which is a novelty for heuristics in the domain we consider. N2 - Optimierung ist ein Hauptbestandteil technologischen Fortschritts und oftmals computergestützt. Da viele Optimierungsprobleme schwer sind, ist es jedoch unrealistisch, eine optimale Lösung in angemessener Zeit zu erwarten. Daher werden Heuristiken verwendet, also Programme, die versuchen hochwertige Lösungen schnell zu erzeugen. Eine konkrete Klasse sind Estimation-of-Distribution-Algorithmen (EDAs), die sich durch das Entwickeln probabilistischer Modelle über dem Problemraum auszeichnen. Ein solches Modell wird genutzt, um neue Lösungen zu erzeugen und damit das Modell zu verfeinern, um im nächsten Schritt mit erhöhter Wahrscheinlichkeit bessere Lösungen zu generieren. In dieser Arbeit untersuchen wir die Klasse univariater EDAs in der booleschen Domäne, also im Raum aller Bitstrings der Länge n. Das probabilistische Modell eines univariaten EDAs besteht dann aus einem n-dimensionalen Wahrscheinlichkeitsvektor, in dem jede Komponente die Wahrscheinlichkeit angibt, eine 1 an der entsprechenden Stelle zu erzeugen. Mein Beitrag folgt zwei Hauptrichtungen: Erst untersuchen wir allgemeine inhärente Eigenschaften univariater EDAs. Danach bestimmen wir die erwartete Laufzeit gewisser EDAs auf Benchmarks aus der Theorie. Im ersten Abschnitt charakterisieren wir, wann EDAs unbefangen bezüglich der Problemcodierung sind. Dann untersuchen wir sie in einem Szenario, in dem alle Lösungen gleich gut sind, und zeigen, dass sich ihr Modell schnell zu einem falschen entwickelt, falls es immer so angepasst wird, dass sich im Erwartungswert nichts ändert. Im zweiten Abschnitt zeigen wir, dass die Algorithmen cGA und MMAS-fp eine verrauschte Variante des klassischen Benchmarks OneMax effizient optimieren, bei der eine Gaussverteilung mit Varianz σ² hinzuaddiert wird. Wir beweisen, dass die Algorithmen das wahre Optimum in polynomieller Zeit bezüglich σ² und n erzeugen. Für den MMAS-fp verallgemeinern wir dieses Ergebnis auf lineare Funktionen. Weiterhin beweisen wir eine Laufzeit von Ω(n log(n)) für den Algorithmus UMDA auf OneMax (ohne Rauschen). Zuletzt führen wir einen neuen Algorithmus ein, der die Benchmarks OneMax und LeadingOnes in O(n log(n)) optimiert, was zuvor für noch keine Heuristik gezeigt wurde.

T1 - Give chance a chance BT - from coexistence to coviability in biodiversity theory T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - A large part of biodiversity theory is driven by the basic question of what allows species to coexist in spite of a confined number of niches. A substantial theoretical background to this question is provided by modern coexistence theory (MCT), which rests on mathematical approaches of invasion analysis to categorize underlying mechanisms into factors that reduce either niche overlap (stabilizing mechanisms) or the average fitness differences of species (equalizing mechanisms). While MCT has inspired biodiversity theory in the search for these underlying mechanisms, we feel that the strong focus on coexistence causes a bias toward the most abundant species and neglects the plethora of species that are less abundant and often show high local turnover. Given the more stochastic nature of their occurrence, we advocate a complementary cross-level approach that links individuals, small populations, and communities and explicitly takes into account (1) a more complete inclusion of environmental and demographic stochasticity affecting small populations, (2) intraspecific trait variation and behavioral plasticity, and (3) local heterogeneities, interactions, and feedbacks. Focusing on mechanisms that drive the temporary coviability of species rather than infinite coexistence, we suggest a new approach that could be dubbed coviability analysis (CVA). From a modeling perspective, CVA builds on the merged approaches of individual-based modeling and population viability analysis but extends them to the community level. From an empirical viewpoint, CVA calls for a stronger integration of spatiotemporal data on variability and noise, changing drivers, and interactions at the level of individuals. The resulting large volumes of data from multiple sources could be strongly supported by novel techniques tailored to the discovery of complex patterns in high-dimensional data. By complementing MCT through a stronger focus on the coviability of less common species, this approach can help make modern biodiversity theory more comprehensive, predictive, and relevant for applications.

T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam Humanwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - Multiple health behaviour change (MHBC) represents one of the best ways to prevent reoccurrence of cardiovascular events. However, few individuals with cardiovascular diseases engage in this process. The present study examined the role of compensatory health beliefs (CHB; i.e., belief that a healthy behaviour compensates an unhealthy one)as a drag to engagement in this process. Some studies have shown that CHBs predict intention to engage in healthy behaviours, but no study has investigated CHBs in individuals who actually need to change multiple health behaviours. The goal was to better understand the role of CHBs in intentions formation process among individuals with cardiac diseases in an MHBC context. One hundred and four patients completed a questionnaire at the beginning of their cardiac rehabilitation program. Results showed that: (1) CHBs negatively predicted intentions (2) but only for participants with high self-efficacy or low risk perception; (3) CHBs predictions differed depending on the nature of the compensating behaviour, and were more predictive when medication intake was the compensating one.

So far, the specific compound that is transported across the membrane remains unknown. In this report we characterized the ABCB7-like transporter Rcc02305 in Rhodobacter capsulatus, which shares 47% amino acid sequence identity with its mitochondrial counterpart. The constructed interposon mutant strain in R. capsulatus displayed increased levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species without a simultaneous accumulation of the cellular iron levels. The inhibition of endogenous glutathione biosynthesis resulted in an increase of total glutathione levels in the mutant strain. Bioinformatic analysis of the amino acid sequence motifs revealed a potential aminotransferase class-V pyridoxal-50-phosphate (PLP) binding site that overlaps with the Walker A motif within the nucleotide binding domains of the transporter. PLP is a well characterized cofactor of L-cysteine desulfurases like IscS and NFS1 which has a role in the formation of a protein-bound persulfide group within these proteins. We therefore suggest renaming the ABCB7-like transporter Rcc02305 in R. capsulatus to PexA for PLP binding exporter. We further suggest that this ABC-transporter in R. capsulatus is involved in the formation and export of polysulfide species to the periplasm.

Methods: A retrospective data analysis of 718 orthopedic presentations among 381 adolescent elite athletes from 16 different sports to a sports medical department was performed. Recorded data of history and clinical examination included area, cause and structure of acute and overuse injuries. Injury-events were analyzed in the whole cohort and stratified by age (11–14/15–17 years) and sex. Group differences were tested by chi-squared-tests. Logistic regression analysis was applied examining the influence of factors age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) on the outcome variables area and structure (a = 0.05). Results: Higher proportions of injury-events were reported for females (60%) and athletes of the older age group (66%) than males and younger athletes. The most frequently injured area was the lower extremity (47%) followed by the spine (30.5%) and the upper extremity (12.5%). Acute injuries were mainly located at the lower extremity (74.5%), while overuse injuries were predominantly observed at the lower extremity (41%) as well as the spine (36.5%). Joints (34%), muscles (22%), and tendons (21.5%) were found to be the most often affected structures. The injured structures were different between the age groups (p = 0.022), with the older age group presenting three times more frequent with ligament pathology events (5.5%/2%) and less frequent with bony problems (11%/20.5%) than athletes of the younger age group. The injured area differed between the sexes (p = 0.005), with males having fewer spine injury-events (25.5%/34%) but more upper extremity injuries (18%/9%) than females. Regression analysis showed statistically significant influence for BMI (p = 0.002) and age (p = 0.015) on structure, whereas the area was significantly influenced by sex (p = 0.005). Conclusion: Events of soft-tissue overuse injuries are the most common reasons resulting in orthopedic presentations of adolescent elite athletes. Mostly, the lower extremity and the spine are affected, while sex and age characteristics on affected area and structure must be considered. Therefore, prevention strategies addressing the injury-event profiles should already be implemented in early adolescence taking age, sex as well as injury entity into account.

All these wars left severe impacts in most households in Iraq; on women and children in particular. The consequences of such long wars could be observed in all sectors including economic, social, cultural and religious sectors. The social structure, norms and attitudes are intensely affected. Many women specifically divorced women found them-selves in challenging different difficulties such as social as well as economic situations. Thus the divorced women in Iraqi Kurdistan are the focus of this research. Considering the fact that there is very few empirical researches on this topic, a constructivist grounded theory methodology (CGT) is viewed as reliable in order to come up with a comprehensive picture about the everyday life of divorced women in Iraqi Kurdistan. Data collected in Sulaimani city in Iraqi Kurdistan. The work of Kathy Charmaz was chosen to be the main methodological context of the research and the main data collection method was individual intensive narrative interviews with divorced women. Women generally and divorced women specifically in Iraqi Kurdistan are living in a patriarchal society that passing through many changes due to the above mentioned wars among many other factors. This research is trying to study the everyday life of divorced women in such situations and the forms of social insecurity they are experiencing. The social institutions starting from the family as a very significant institution for women to the governmental and non-governmental institutions that are working to support women, and the copying strategies, are in focus in this research. The main research argument is that the family is playing ambivalent roles in divorced women’s life. For instance, on one side families are revealed to be an essential source of security to most respondents, on the other side families posed also many threats and restrictions on those women. This argument supported by what called by Suad joseph "the paradox of support and suppression" . Another important finding is that the stat institution(laws , constitutions ,Offices of combating violence against woman and family) are supporting women somehow and offering them protection from the insecurities but it is clear that the existence of the laws does not stop the violence against women in Iraqi Kurdistan, As explained by Pateman because the laws /the contract is a sexual-social contract that upholds the sex rights of males and grants them more privileges than females. The political instability, Tribal social norms also play a major role in influencing the rule of law. It is noteworthy to refer that analyzing the interviews in this research showed that in spite that divorced women living in insecurities and facing difficulties but most of the respondents try to find a coping strategies to tackle difficult situations and to deal with the violence they face; these strategies are bargaining, sometimes compromising or resisting …etc. Different theories used to explain these coping strategies such as bargaining with patriarchy. Kandiyoti who stated that women living under certain restraints struggle to find way and strategies to enhance their situations. The research finding also revealed that the western liberal feminist view of agency is limited this is agree with Saba Mahmood and what she explained about Muslim women agency. For my respondents, who are divorced women, their agency reveals itself in different ways, in resisting or compromising with or even obeying the power of male relatives, and the normative system in the society. Agency is also explained the behavior of women contacting formal state institutions in cases of violence like the police or Offices of combating violence against woman and family.

Zwar erscheint Humboldt auf einigen Listen von „illustren Freimaurern“, zudem tragen mehrere Logen seinen Namen, aber die Frage bleibt offen, ob Humboldt wirklich ein Freimaurer war. Wenn ja, wann und wo ist er einer Loge beigetreten? Gibt es vielleicht Kommentare von ihm zu dieser Art von Geheimbünden? Und wer waren die bekanntesten Freimaurer in seiner Umgebung? Der Artikel beantwortet diese Punkte, aber wichtiger noch geht er der Frage nach, was eine Mitgliedschaft für Humboldts wissenschaftliche Arbeit bedeutet haben könnte, insbesondere im Hinblick auf den herausragenden Erfolg, den er in den Vereinigten Staaten zu Beginn des 19. Jahrhunderts hatte und die Gründe hierfür. Was hätten solche Verbindungen für ihn bedeutet und wie wurde er von den wichtigsten freimaurerischen Persönlichkeiten und Logen in der transatlantischen Welt wahrgenommen? N2 - While the lack of religion in Alexander von Humboldt’s work and the criticism he received is well known, his relationship with Freemasonry is relatively unexplored. Humboldt appears on some lists of “illustrious Masons,” and several lodges carry his name, but was he really a member? If so, when and where did he join a lodge? Are there any comments by him about Freemasonry? Who were the renowned Masons he was surrounded by? This paper examines these questions, but more importantly it analyzes what a membership might have meant for Humboldt’s scholarly work. It looks particularly at the unprecedented success he enjoyed in the United States in the early 19th century and the factors behind it. What could he have gained from these connections and how was he viewed by Masonic leaders and lodges in the trans-Atlantic world? N2 - Mientras que la falta de religiosidad en la obra de Alexander von Humboldt, así como las críticas por ello recibidas, son bien conocidas, su posible relación con la masonería es relativamente incógnita. Humboldt aparece en algunas listas de “masones ilustres” y varias logias llevan su nombre pero, ¿fue realmente miembro de una de ellas? Y en este supuesto, ¿cuándo y dónde se adhirió?, ¿existen comentarios suyos sobre la masonería?, ¿qué masones de renombre le rodearon? Este artículo estudia estas cuestiones pero, de manera más importante, analiza lo que la membresía de una logia masónica podría haber significado para el trabajo académico de Humboldt. En particular, mira el éxito sin precedentes del que disfrutó en los Estados Unidos a comienzos del siglo xix y los motivos para ello. ¿Qué podria haber ganado de estas conexiones y cómo fue visto por los líderes y logias masónicas en el mundo transatlántico?

The Sea of Marmara, in northwestern Turkey, is a transition zone where the dextral North Anatolian Fault zone (NAFZ) propagates westward from the Anatolian Plate to the Aegean Sea Plate. The area is of interest in the context of seismic hazard of Istanbul, a metropolitan area with about 15 million inhabitants. Geophysical observations indicate that the crust is heterogeneous beneath the Marmara basin, but a detailed characterization of the crustal heterogeneities is still missing. To assess if and how crustal heterogeneities are related to the NAFZ segmentation below the Sea of Marmara, we develop new crustal-scale 3-D density models which integrate geological and seismological data and that are additionally constrained by 3-D gravity modeling. For the latter, we use two different gravity datasets including global satellite data and local marine gravity observation. Considering the two different datasets and the general non-uniqueness in potential field modeling, we suggest three possible “end-member” solutions that are all consistent with the observed gravity field and illustrate the spectrum of possible solutions.

The Sea of Marmara, in northwestern Turkey, is a transition zone where the dextral North Anatolian Fault zone (NAFZ) propagates westward from the Anatolian Plate to the Aegean Sea Plate. The area is of interest in the context of seismic hazard of Istanbul, a metropolitan area with about 15 million inhabitants. Geophysical observations indicate that the crust is heterogeneous beneath the Marmara basin, but a detailed characterization of the crustal heterogeneities is still missing. To assess if and how crustal heterogeneities are related to the NAFZ segmentation below the Sea of Marmara, we develop new crustal-scale 3-D density models which integrate geological and seismological data and that are additionally constrained by 3-D gravity modeling. For the latter, we use two different gravity datasets including global satellite data and local marine gravity observation. Considering the two different datasets and the general non-uniqueness in potential field modeling, we suggest three possible “end-member” solutions that are all consistent with the observed gravity field and illustrate the spectrum of possible solutions. These models indicate that the observed gravitational anomalies originate from significant density heterogeneities within the crust. Two layers of sediments, one syn-kinematic and one pre-kinematic with respect to the Sea of Marmara formation are underlain by a heterogeneous crystalline crust. A felsic upper crystalline crust (average density of 2720 kgm⁻³) and an intermediate to mafic lower crystalline crust (average density of 2890 kgm⁻³) appear to be cross-cut by two large, dome-shaped mafic highdensity bodies (density of 2890 to 3150 kgm⁻³) of considerable thickness above a rather uniform lithospheric mantle (3300 kgm⁻³). The spatial correlation between two major bends of the main Marmara fault and the location of the highdensity bodies suggests that the distribution of lithological heterogeneities within the crust controls the rheological behavior along the NAFZ and, consequently, maybe influences fault segmentation and thus the seismic hazard assessment in the region.

It is thus a crucial factor for entrepreneurs when pursuing and exploiting their business opportunities and to realize potential economic gains and benefits. Using rich data on a representative sample of German business founders, we investigate the determinants of entrepreneurial persistence. Next to observed survival we also construct a hybrid persistence measure capturing also the motivational dimension of persistence. We analyze the influence of individual-level (human capital and personality) and business-related characteristics on both measures as well as their relative importance. We find that the two indicators emphasize different aspects of persistence. For the survival indicator, the predictive power is concentrated in business characteristics and human capital, while for hybrid persistence, the dominant factors are business characteristics and personality. Finally, we show that results are heterogeneous across subgroups. In particular, formerly-unemployed founders do not differ in survival chances, but they are more likely to lack a high psychological commitment to their business ventures.

Therefore, the plasmonic nanoparticles such as gold and silver nanoparticles act as nano-reactors, where the molecules attached to their surfaces benefit from the enhanced electromagnetic field along with the generated energetic charge carriers and heat for possible chemical transformations. Hence, plasmonic chemistry presents metal nanoparticles as a unique playground for chemical reactions on the nanoscale remotely controlled by light. However, defining the elementary concepts behind these reactions represents the main challenge for understanding their mechanism in the context of the plasmonically assisted chemistry. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a powerful technique employing the plasmon-enhanced electromagnetic field, which can be used for probing the vibrational modes of molecules adsorbed on plasmonic nanoparticles. In this cumulative dissertation, I use SERS to probe the dimerization reaction of 4-nitrothiophenol (4-NTP) as a model example of plasmonic chemistry. I first demonstrate that plasmonic nanostructures such as gold nanotriangles and nanoflowers have a high SERS efficiency, as evidenced by probing the vibrations of the rhodamine dye R6G and the 4-nitrothiophenol 4-NTP. The high signal enhancement enabled the measurements of SERS spectra with a short acquisition time, which allows monitoring the kinetics of chemical reactions in real time. To get insight into the reaction mechanism, several time-dependent SERS measurements of the 4-NTP have been performed under different laser and temperature conditions. Analysis of the results within a mechanistic framework has shown that the plasmonic heating significantly enhances the reaction rate, while the reaction is probably initiated by the energetic electrons. The reaction was shown to be intensity-dependent, where a certain light intensity is required to drive the reaction. Finally, first attempts to scale up the plasmonic catalysis have been performed showing the necessity to achieve the reaction threshold intensity. Meanwhile, the induced heat needs to quickly dissipate from the reaction substrate, since otherwise the reactants and the reaction platform melt. This study might open the way for further work seeking the possibilities to quickly dissipate the plasmonic heat generated during the reaction and therefore, scaling up the plasmonic catalysis. N2 - Plasmonische Metallnanostrukturen können so eingestellt werden, dass sie effizient mit Licht interagieren, Photonen in energetische Ladungsträger und wärmeenergie umwandeln. Aus diesem Grund wirken plasmonische Nanopartikel wie Gold und Silbernanopartikel als Nanoreaktoren, wenn Moleküle mit deren Oberfläche verbunden sind. Durch das verstärkte elektromagnetische Feld und den somit erzeugten energetischen Ladungsträgern und der wärmeenergie können chemische Umwandlungen entstehen. Das bedeutet, in der plasmonischen Chemie sind Metallnanopartikel ein einzigartiges system um chemische Reaktionen auf der Nanoebene unter der Kontrolle von Licht verfolgen zu können. Die Herausforderung liegt darin, grundlegende Konzepte hinter den Reaktionen für das mechanistische Verständnis in Bezug auf die plasmonisch unterstützte Chemie zu definieren. Oberflächenverstärkte Raman Streuung (SERS) ist eine leistungsfähige Technik, die sich mit plasmonverstärkten, elektromagnetischen Feldern beschäftigt, um die Vibrationsmoden von den auf den Nanopartikeln absorbierten Molekülen zu analysieren. In dieser kumulativen Dissertation wurde die Dimerisierung von 4-Nitrothiophenol (4-NTP) mittels SERS als Beispielreaktion für die plasmonische Chemie untersucht. Aufgrund der hohen SERS Signalverstärkung konnten die SERS Spektren mit einer kurzen Erfassungszeit aufgenommen werden, was die Untersuchung der Kinetik und des Reaktionsmechanismus in Echtzeit ermöglichte.

Low metallicity massive stars are a key to understand the early universe. Quantitative information on metal-poor massive stars was sparse before. The quantitative spectroscopic studies of massive star populations associated with large-scale ISM structures were not performed at low metallicity before, but are important to investigate star-formation histories and feedback in detail. Much of this work relies on spectroscopic observations with VLT-FLAMES of ~500 OB stars in the Magellanic Clouds. When available, the optical spectroscopy was complemented by UV spectra from the HST, IUE, and FUSE archives. The two representative young stellar populations that have been studied are associated with the superbubble N 206 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and with the supergiant shell SMC-SGS 1 in the Wing of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), respectively. We performed spectroscopic analyses of the massive stars using the nonLTE Potsdam Wolf-Rayet (PoWR) model atmosphere code. We estimated the stellar, wind, and feedback parameters of the individual massive stars and established their statistical distributions. The mass-loss rates of N206 OB stars are consistent with theoretical expectations for LMC metallicity. The most massive and youngest stars show nitrogen enrichment at their surface and are found to be slower rotators than the rest of the sample. The N 206 complex has undergone star formation episodes since more than 30 Myr, with a current star formation rate higher than average in the LMC. The spatial age distribution of stars across the complex possibly indicates triggered star formation due to the expansion of the superbubble. Three very massive, young Of stars in the region dominate the ionizing and mechanical feedback among hundreds of other OB stars in the sample. The current stellar wind feedback rate from the two WR stars in the complex is comparable to that released by the whole OB sample. We see only a minor fraction of this stellar wind feedback converted into X-ray emission. In this LMC complex, stellar winds and supernovae equally contribute to the total energy feedback, which eventually powered the central superbubble. However, the total energy input accumulated over the time scale of the superbubble significantly exceeds the observed energy content of the complex. The lack of energy along with the morphology of the complex suggests a leakage of hot gas from the superbubble. With a detailed spectroscopic study of massive stars in SMC-SGS 1, we provide the stellar and wind parameters of a large sample of OB stars at low metallicity, including those in the lower mass-range. The stellar rotation velocities show a broad, tentatively bimodal distribution, with Be stars being among the fastest. A few very luminous O stars are found close to the main sequence, while all other, slightly evolved stars obey a strict luminosity limit. Considering additional massive stars in evolved stages, with published parameters and located all over the SMC, essentially confirms this picture. The comparison with single-star evolutionary tracks suggests a dichotomy in the fate of massive stars in the SMC. Only stars with an initial mass below 30 solar masses seem to evolve from the main sequence to the cool side of the HRD to become a red supergiant and to explode as type II-P supernova. In contrast, more massive stars appear to stay always hot and might evolve quasi chemically homogeneously, finally collapsing to relatively massive black holes. However, we find no indication that chemical mixing is correlated with rapid rotation. We measured the key parameters of stellar feedback and established the links between the rates of star formation and supernovae. Our study demonstrates that in metal-poor environments stellar feedback is dominated by core-collapse supernovae in combination with winds and ionizing radiation supplied by a few of the most massive stars. We found indications of the stochastic mode of star formation, where the resulting stellar population is fully capable of producing large-scale structures such as the supergiant shell SMC-SGS 1 in the Wing. The low level of feedback in metal-poor stellar populations allows star formation episodes to persist over long timescales. Our study showcases the importance of quantitative spectroscopy of massive stars with adequate stellar-atmosphere models in order to understand star-formation, evolution, and feedback. The stellar population analyses in the LMC and SMC make us understand that massive stars and their impact can be very different depending on their environment. Obviously, due to their different metallicity, the massive stars in the LMC and the SMC follow different evolutionary paths. Their winds differ significantly, and the key feedback agents are different. As a consequence, the star formation can proceed in different modes. N2 - Massereiche Sterne, also Sterne, die ihre Entwicklung mit mehr als acht Sonnenmassen starten, spielen die Hauptrolle in der chemischen Entwicklung des Universums. Darüberhinaus formen sie das sie umgebende interstellare Medium, aus dem sie entstanden sind, durch ihre ionisierende Strahlung und ihre starken Massenausflüsse in Form von Sternwinden und Supernovaexplosionen, das sogenannte Feedback. Diese Arbeit verbreitert die empirische Basis für ein besseres Verständnis der Entwicklung, Entstehung und des Feedbacks massereicher Sterne bei niedriger Metallizität, wie sie auch im frühen Universum herrschte, wesentlich. Hierfür wurden die Daten von zwei großen spektroskopischen Beobachtungskampagnen in der Großen (LMC) und in der Kleinen Magellanschen Wolke (SMC) - beides Galaxien mit erniedrigter Metallizität - mittels des Non-LTE Potsdam Wolf-Rayet (PoWR) Model Atmosphere Codes quantitativ analysiert, um wesentliche Stern-, Wind- und Feedbackparameter sowie ihre statistische Verteilung zu bestimmen und damit ein globales Bild der massereichen Sterne und ihrer Wechselwirkung mit der Umgebung zu erhalten. Diese Analysen stützen sich hauptsächlich auf Spektren aus dem optischen Bereich, die mit dem Fibre Large Array Multi Element Spectrograph (FLAMES) am Very Large Telescope (VLT) von ~ 500 OBSternen in den Magellanschen Wolken aufgenommen worden, ergänzt durch UV-Spektren aus den Archiven verschiedener UV-Satelliten. Die zwei repräsentativen jungen Sternpopulationen, die untersucht wurden, gehören zur Superbubble N206 in der LMC beziehungsweise zur Supergiant Shell SMC-SGS 1 im Wing der SMC. Die analysierte Stichprobe des N206-Komplexes umfasst alle heißen massereichen Sterne vom Typ OB, Of, und Wolf-Rayet, wobei letztere weit entwickelt und durch starke Sternwinde gekennzeichnet sind. Auf Basis unsere Analysen fanden wir heraus, dass der Komplex seit 30 Mio. Jahren mehrere Sternentstehungsepisoden durchlief. Die räumliche Altersverteilung dieser Sterne über den Komplex weist möglicherweise auf getriggerte Sternentstehung infolge der Ausdehnung der Superbubble hin. Drei sehr massereiche, junge Of-Sterne in dieser Region dominieren das ionisierende und mechanische Feedback unter hunderten von anderen OBSternen in der Region. Die SMC hat eine noch niedrigere Metallizität als die LMC, was sich u.a. auch in der Sternentwicklung niederschlagen sollte. Daher wurde mittels der Daten der Spektralanalysen der Supergiant Shell SMC-SGS 1 in der SMC zusammen mit weiteren Daten aus der Literatur das am dichtesten besiedelte Hertzsprung-Russell-Diagramm der massereichen Sterne in der SMC erstellt. Der Vergleich mit Sternentwicklungsrechnungen suggeriert eine Zweiteilung der Entwicklungswege massereicher Sterne in der SMC. Dabei scheint die gemessene Rotation der Sterne überraschenderweise keinen großen Einfluss zu haben. Wir vermuten daher, dass die Masse und Metallizität der Sterne zusammen hauptverantwortlich für die beobachtete Zweiteilung sind. Desweiteren konnte erstmalig auf einer breiten Datenbasis aufbauend die Korrelation zwischen Metallizität und Stärke von OB-Sternwinden etabliert werden, allerdings sind die ermittelten Windstärken weit schwächer als vorhergesagt (Weak-Wind-Problem) und in Sternentwicklungsrechnungen verwendet. Die Alter und räumliche Verteilung von massereichen Sternen zeigen, dass Sternentstehung seit über 100 Mio. Jahren in der ruhigen Region niedriger Dichte in der SMC eher stochastisch als sequenziell voranschreitet und höher ist als von Messungen diffuser Hα-Emission abgeleitet wurde. Das Feedback in dieser Region wird aufgrund der schwachen Sternwinde durch Supernovae bestimmt, während die Ionization der gesamten Region durch einen einzigen sehr heißen und leuchtkräftigen Wolf-Rayet-Stern dominiert wird. Die niedrige Feedbackrate in metallarmen Sternpopulationen scheint für die Größe und das Überleben von Molekülwolken förderlich zu sein, sodass Sternentstehungsepisoden über einen längeren Zeitraum ablaufen. Solch ausgedehnte Sternentstehung kann dazu führen, dass es eine fortwährende Quelle von ionisierenden Photonen gibt, welche in das zirkumgalaktische Medium durch Löcher oder Kanäle entweichen können, die durch Supernovae erzeugt worden. Diese Studie regt an, dass Sternentstehungsregionen mit langer Geschichte ihre Spuren im umgebenden ISM auch bei niedriger Metallizität hinterlassen werden. Die zukünftigen großräumigen Spektroskopiestudien von weiter entfernten Galaxien mit noch geringeren Metallizitäten können weitere Einsichten in unser derzeitiges Verständnis von massereichen Sternen bringen.

Moreover, flooding has gender based impacts on welfare. These differing impacts create a gender based flood risk resilience gap. We study the intangible impacts of flood risk on the subjective well-being of residents in central Vietnam. The measurement of intangible impacts through subjective well-being is a growing field within flood risk research. We find an initial drop in welfare through subjective well-being across genders when a flood is experienced. Male respondents tended to recover their welfare losses by around 80% within 5 years while female respondents were associated with a welfare recovery of around 70%. A monetization of the impacts floods have on an individual’s subjective well-being shows that for the average female respondent, between 41% to 86% of annual income would be required to compensate subjective well-being losses after 5 years of experiencing a flood. The corresponding value for males is 30% to 57% of annual income. This shows that the intangible impacts of flood risk are important (across genders) and need to be integrated into flood (or climate) risk assessments to develop more socially appropriate risk management strategies.

We further distinguished between heritage and mainstream identity as two separate dimensions of cultural identity. Analyses were based on self-reports of 662 students of the first, second, and third migrant generation in Germany (Mean age = 14.75 years, 51% female). Path analyses revealed that talking about heritage culture with friends was positively related to heritage identity. Talking about mainstream culture with friends was negatively associated with heritage identity, but positively with mainstream identity as well as school values. Both dimensions of cultural identity related to higher life satisfaction and more positive school values. As expected, heritage and mainstream identity mediated the link between peer cultural socialisation and adjustment outcomes. Findings highlight the potential of peers as socialisation agents to help promote cultural belonging as well as positive adjustment of cultural minority youth in the school context.

According to the competitive exclusion principle, the overlap of species niches predicts the amount of shared resources and therefore competition between species, determining their ability to coexist. Only if niches of two species are sufficiently different, thus niche overlap is low, competition within species is higher than competition between species and stable coexistence is possible. Thereby, differences in species mean traits are focused on and conspecific individuals are assumed to be interchangeable. This approach might be outdated since behaviour, as a key aspect mediating niche differentiation between species, is individual based. Individuals from one species consistently differ across time and situations in their behavioural traits. Causes and consequences of consistent behavioural differences have been thoroughly investigated stimulating their recent incorporation into ecological interactions and niche theory. Spatial components have so far been largely overlooked, although animal movement is strongly connected to several aspects of ecological niches and interactions between individuals. Furthermore, numerous movement aspects haven been proven to be crucially influenced by consistent individual differences. Considering spatial parameters could therefore crucially broaden our understanding of how individual niches are formed and ecological interactions are shaped. Furthermore, extending established concepts on species interactions by an individual component could provide new insights into how species coexistence is facilitated and local biodiversity is maintained. The main aim of this thesis was to test whether consistent inter-individual differences can facilitate the coexistence of ecological similar species. Therefore, the effects of consistent inter-individual differences on the spatial behaviour of two rodent species, the bank vole (Myodes glareolus) and the striped field mouse (Apodemus agrarius), were investigated and put in the context of: (i) individual spatial niches, (ii) interactions between species, and (iii) the importance of different levels of behavioural variation within species for their interactions. Consistent differences of study animals in boldness and exploration were quantified with the same tests in all presented studies and always combined with observations of movement and space use via automated VHF radio telemetry. Consequently, results are comparable throughout the thesis and the methods provide a common denominator for all chapters. The first two chapters are based on observations of free-ranging rodents in natural populations, while chapter III represents an experimental approach under semi-natural conditions. Chapter I focusses on the effect of consistent differences in boldness and exploration on movement and space use of bank voles and their contribution to individual spatial niche separation. Results show boldness to be the dominating predictor for spatial parameters in bank voles. Irrespective of sex, bolder individuals had larger home ranges, moved longer distances, had less spatial interactions with conspecifics and occupied different microhabitats compared to shy individuals. The same boldness-dependent spatial patterns could be observed in striped field mice which is reported in chapter II. Therefore, both study species showed individual spatial niche occupation. Chapter II builds on findings from the first chapter, investigating the effect of boldness driven individual spatial niche occupation on the interactions between species. Irrespective of species and sex, bolder individuals had more interspecific spatial interactions, but less intraspecific interactions, compared to shy individuals. Due to individual niches occupation the competitive environment individuals experience is not random. Interactions are restricted to individuals of similar behavioural type with presumably similar competitive ability, which could balance differences on the species level and support coexistence. In chapter III the experimental populations were either comprised of only shy or only bold bank voles, while striped field mice varied, creating either a shy- or bold-biased competitive community. Irrespective of behavioural type, striped field mice had more intraspecific interactions in bold-biased competitive communities. Only in a shy-biased competitive community, bolder striped field mice had less interspecific interactions compared to shy individuals. Bank voles showed no difference in intra- or interspecific interactions between populations. Chapter III highlights, that not only consistent inter-individual differences per se are important for interactions within and between species, but also the amount of behavioural variation within coexisting species. Overall, this thesis highlights the importance of considering consistent inter-individual differences in a spatial context and their connection to individual spatial niche occupation, as well as the resulting effects on interactions within and between species. Individual differences are discussed in the context of similarity of individuals, individual and species niche width, and individual and species niche overlap. Thereby, this thesis makes one step further from the existing research on individual niches towards integrating consistent inter-individual differences into the larger framework of species coexistence. N2 - Ein zentrales Thema in der Ökologie ist die Koexistenz von Arten. Zwei Aspekte sind dabei von großer Bedeutung: ökologische Nischen und zwischenartliche Konkurrenz. Das Konkurrenz-Ausschlussprinzip besagt, dass der Überlappungsgrad der Nischen zweier Arten bestimmt, wie viele Ressourcen sie teilen und damit wie stark die Konkurrenz zwischen ihnen ist. Eine stabile Koexistenz zweier Arten ist nur dann möglich, wenn ihre Nischen unterschiedlich genug sind und eine geringe Überlappung vorliegt. In diesem Fall ist die innerartliche Konkurrenz größer als die zwischenartliche, und die Bedingungen für eine langfristig stabile Koexistenz sind gegeben. Traditionell werden hierbei nur mittlere Unterschiede zwischen den Fokusarten verglichen und der Einfluss von Unterschieden zwischen Individuen nicht beachtet. Ein wesentlicher Aspekt, der die Nischendifferenzierung zwischen Tierarten beeinflusst ist deren Verhalten. Dieses ist jedoch nachweislich individuell geprägt, folglich könnte der oben erwähnte Ansatz zur Koexistenz von Arten eventuell veraltet sein. Zwischen Individuen einer Art gibt es konstante Verhaltensunterschiede, die stabil bleiben über die Zeit und zwischen verschiedenen Situationen. Ursachen und Effekte dieser Unterschiede wurden bereits in zahlreichen Tierarten untersucht, wodurch ebenfalls die Integration von individuellen Verhaltensunterschieden in das Konzept der ökologischen Nische angestoßen wurde. Aspekte der Raumnutzung von Tieren fanden hierbei bislang kaum Beachtung, obwohl sie für eine Vielzahl von Parametern, die mit Nischen in Verbindung stehen, essentiell sind. Räumliches Verhalten von Tieren wird stark durch individuelle Verhaltensunterschiede beeinflusst, weswegen es eine wichtige Rolle im Zusammenhang mit individuellen Nischen spielen sollte. Hinsichtlich der Formation individueller Nischen und ökologischer Interaktionen hat die Einbeziehung von räumlichen Aspekten das Potential entscheidende Impulse zu erbringen. Die Erweiterung bestehender Theorien zu Artinteraktionen, um eine individuelle Komponente, kann neue Einblicke schaffen wie Koexistenz zwischen Arten vermittelt und örtliche Biodiversität erhalten wird. Die hier vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit den Einflüssen von stabilen, individuellen Verhaltensunterschieden auf die Raumnutzung von Individuen. Dies wurde exemplarisch an zwei Nagerarten untersucht, der Rötelmaus (Myodes glareolus) und der Brandmaus (Apodemus agrarius). Dabei wird der Fokus auf die folgenden Aspekte gelegt: (i) individuelle Nischen, (ii) Interaktionen zwischen Arten, und (iii) Auswirkungen verschiedener Variationsgrade stabiler Verhaltensunterschiede auf die Interaktionen innerhalb und zwischen Arten. Alle Kapitel basieren auf der gleichen Methodik in der Datenaufnahme, da individuelle Verhaltensunterschiede stets mit dem gleichen Test quantifiziert und mit räumlichen Mustern in Zusammenhang gebracht wurden, die mit Hilfe automatischer VHF Radiotelemetrie aufgezeichnet wurden. Ergebnisse sind somit auch kapitelübergreifend vergleichbar. Kapitel eins und zwei umfassen Studien an freilebenden Nagetieren aus natürlichen Populationen, während das dritte Kapitel eine experimentelle Studie unter naturnahen Bedingungen darstellt. Das erste Kapitel handelt von den Effekten stabiler Verhaltensunterschiede in der Risikobereitschaft und dem Explorationsverhalten von Rötelmäusen auf deren Bewegungsmuster. Letztere wurden nur durch die Risikobereitschaft der Individuen beeinflusst, aber nicht durch deren Explorationsverhalten. Risikofreudigere Individuen hatten größere Streifgebiete, legten längere Strecken zurück, hatten weniger innerartliche Interaktionen und bewohnten andere Mikrohabitate als risikoscheue Individuen. Gleiche Muster konnten für die Brandmäuse gefunden werden, werden jedoch erst im zweiten Kapitel dargestellt. Beide Arten besetzen somit individuelle räumliche Nischen. Kapitel zwei baut auf dem Resultat des ersten Kapitels auf und beschäftigt sich mit den Auswirkungen von individuellen räumlichen Nischen auf die Interaktionen zwischen zwei Arten. Hierbei konnte gezeigt werden, dass unabhängig von Art und Geschlecht, risikofreudigere Individuen weniger innerartliche Interaktionen haben, dafür aber mehr zwischenartliche im Vergleich zu risikoscheuen Individuen. Die Besetzung individueller Nischen hat somit zur Folge, dass das Konkurrenz-Umfeld der Individuen abhängig von ihrem Verhaltenstyp ist. Daraus folgt, dass die Interaktionen zwischen Individuen zweier Arten beschränkt sind auf solche Individuen, die sich in ihrem Verhaltenstyp, und damit ihrer Konkurrenzkraft, ähneln. Etwaige Artunterschiede in der Konkurrenzkraft könnten dadurch ausgeglichen werden und die Koexistenz der Arten vermitteln. Im letzten Kapitel wurden experimentelle Populationen aus beiden Versuchsarten zusammengestellt. Diese unterschieden sich darin, dass die Rötelmäuse entweder ausschließlich risikoscheu oder risikobereit waren, während die Brandmäuse in ihrem Verhaltenstyp variierten. Dadurch wurden Artgemeinschaften erstellt, die entweder ein vorwiegend risikoscheues oder risikobereites Konkurrenz-Umfeld hatten. Eine reduzierte Variationsbreite der individuellen Verhaltensunterschiede in einer von zwei koexistierenden Arten führt dazu, dass sich die Interaktionsmuster innerhalb und zwischen den Arten, im Vergleich zu denen aus natürlichen Populationen verändern. Brandmäuse in einem risikobereiten Konkurrenz-Umfeld hatten mehr innerartliche Interaktionen als solche in einem risikoscheuen Konkurrenz-Umfeld, unabhängig davon ob die Brandmäuse selber risikoscheu oder risikofreudig waren. Die zwischenartlichen Interaktionen dagegen wurden nur in einem risikoscheuen Konkurrenz-Umfeld von risikobereiten Brandmäusen reduziert im Gegensatz zu risikoscheuen Individuen. Währenddessen zeigen Rötelmäuse weder in den inner- noch in den zwischenartlichen Interaktionen einen Unterschied aufgrund ihres Konkurrenz-Umfeldes. Das dritte Kapitel zeigt damit deutlich, dass nicht nur stabile individuelle Unterschiede für inner- und zwischenartliche Interaktionen von Bedeutung sind, sondern dass auch die Variationsbreite der Verhaltensunterschiede innerhalb der Arten eine entscheidende Rolle spielt. Zusammenfassend verdeutlicht die vorliegende Arbeit wie wichtig die Berücksichtigung von stabilen individuellen Verhaltensunterschieden im Hinblick auf räumliche Parameter ist. Darüber hinaus zeigen die vorliegenden Ergebnisse, dass individuelle Verhaltensunterschiede für die Besetzung individueller Nischen und damit für inner- und zwischenartlichen Interaktionen von großer Bedeutung sind. Innerhalb dieser Arbeit werden individuelle Verhaltensunterschiede in Zusammenhang mit der Ähnlichkeit von Arten, der Breite von individuellen Nischen und Artnischen, sowie deren Überlappung gebracht. Diese Arbeit stellt somit eine Erweiterung des bisherigen Forschungstandes hinsichtlich der Einbeziehung von individuellen Verhaltensunterschieden in die Theorie der Koexistenz von Arten dar.

Early research has shown that the predictive abilities of L2 speakers relative to L1 speakers are limited, resulting in the proposal of the Reduced Ability to Generate Expectations (RAGE) hypothesis. Considering that prediction is assumed to facilitate language processing in L1 speakers and probably plays a role in language learning, the assumption that L1/L2 differences can be explained in terms of different processing mechanisms is a particularly interesting approach. However, results from more recent studies on the predictive processing abilities of L2 speakers have indicated that the claim of the RAGE hypothesis is too broad and that prediction in L2 speakers could be selectively limited. In the current thesis, the RAGE hypothesis was systematically put to the test. In this thesis, German L1 and highly proficient late L2 learners of German with Russian as L1 were tested on their predictive use of one or more information sources that exist as cues to sentence interpretation in both languages, to test for selective limits. The results showed that, in line with previous findings, L2 speakers can use the lexical-semantics of verbs to predict the upcoming noun. Here the level of prediction was more systematically controlled for than in previous studies by using verbs that restrict the selection of upcoming nouns to the semantic category animate or inanimate. Hence, prediction in L2 processing is possible. At the same time, this experiment showed that the L2 group was slower/less certain than the L1 group. Unlike previous studies, the experiment on case marking demonstrated that L2 speakers can use this morphosyntactic cue for prediction. Here, the use of case marking was tested by manipulating the word order (Dat > Acc vs. Acc > Dat) in double object constructions after a ditransitive verb. Both the L1 and the L2 group showed a difference between the two word order conditions that emerged within the critical time window for an anticipatory effect, indicating their sensitivity towards case. However, the results for the post-critical time window pointed to a higher uncertainty in the L2 group, who needed more time to integrate incoming information and were more affected by the word order variation than the L1 group, indicating that they relied more on surface-level information. A different cue weighting was also found in the experiment testing whether participants predict upcoming reference based on implicit causality information. Here, an additional child L1 group was tested, who had a lower memory capacity than the adult L2 group, as confirmed by a digit span task conducted with both learner groups. Whereas the children were only slightly delayed compared to the adult L1 group and showed the same effect of condition, the L2 speakers showed an over-reliance on surface-level information (first-mention/subjecthood). Hence, the pattern observed resulted more likely from L1/L2 differences than from resource deficits. The reviewed studies and the experiments conducted show that L2 prediction is affected by a range of factors. While some of the factors can be attributed to more individual differences (e.g., language similarity, slower processing) and can be interpreted by L2 processing accounts assuming that L1 and L2 processing are basically the same, certain limits are better explained by accounts that assume more substantial L1/L2 differences. Crucially, the experimental results demonstrate that the RAGE hypothesis should be refined: Although prediction as a fast-operating mechanism is likely to be affected in L2 speakers, there is no indication that prediction is the dominant source of L1/L2 differences. The results rather demonstrate that L2 speakers show a different weighting of cues and rely more on semantic and surface-level information to predict as well as to integrate incoming information. N2 - Die vorliegende Dissertation untersucht, wie Nicht-Muttersprachler des Deutschen sprachliche Information vorausschauend verarbeiten. Frühere Forschungsarbeiten haben gezeigt, dass diese Fähigkeit bei Fremdsprachsprechern im Vergleich zu Muttersprachlern eingeschränkt ist. Dies resultierte in der Formulierung der RAGE Hypothese, die besagt, dass Nicht-Muttersprachler eine reduzierte Fähigkeit besitzen, Erwartungen zu generieren. Unter der Berücksichtigung, dass vorausschauende Verarbeitung die Sprachverarbeitung bei Muttersprachlern erleichtert und möglicherweise eine Rolle beim Sprachenlernen spielt, ist die Annahme, dass sich Mutter- und Fremdsprachunterschiede durch unterschiedliche Verarbeitungsmechanismen erklären lassen, besonders interessant. Jedoch zeigen die Ergebnisse neuerer Studien, dass die Annahmen der RAGE Hypothese zu generell sind und es selektive Unterschiede zwischen Mutter- und Fremdsprachsprechern geben könnte. In dieser Dissertation wurde die RAGE Hypothese systematisch überprüft.

Since the mass and the chemical composition are key ingredients for stellar evolution, high-resolution spectroscopy is an important and necessary tool to derive those parameters to high confidence in binaries. This involves carefully measured orbital motion by the determination of radial velocity (RV) shifts and sophisticated techniques to derive the abundances of elements within the stellar atmosphere. A technique superior to conventional cross-correlation methods to determine RV shifts in known as spectral disentangling. Hence, a major task of this thesis was the design of a sophisticated software package for this approach. In order to investigate secondary effects, such as flux and line-profile variations, imprinting changes on the spectrum the behavior of spectral disentangling on such variability is a key to understand the derived values, to improve them, and to get information about the variability itself. Therefore, the spectral disentangling code presented in this thesis and available to the community combines multiple advantages: separation of the spectra for detailed chemical analysis, derivation of orbital elements, derivation of individual RVs in order to investigate distorted systems (either by third body interaction or relativistic effects), the suppression of telluric contaminations, the derivation of variability, and the possibility to apply the technique to eclipsing binaries (important for orbital inclination) or in general to systems that undergo flux-variations. This code in combination with the spectral synthesis codes MOOG and SME was used in order to derive the carbon 12C/13C isotope ratio (CIR) of the benchmark binary Capella. The observational result will be set into context with theoretical evolution by the use of MESA models and resolves the discrepancy of theory and observations existing since the first measurement of Capella's CIR in 1976. The spectral disentangling code has been made available to the community and its applicability to completely different behaving systems, Wolf-Rayet stars, have also been investigated and resulted in a published article. Additionally, since this technique relies strongly on data quality, continues development of scientific instruments to achieve best observational data is of great importance in observational astrophysics. That is the reason why there has also been effort in astronomical instrumentation during the work on this thesis. N2 - Doppelsterne spielen eine wichtige Rolle in der beobachtenden und theoretischen Astrophysik. Die Massen und die chemische Zusammensetzung der Sterne sind dabei ausschlaggebende Parameter. Die wichtige und notwendige Methode um diese zu bestimmen ist hochaufgelöste Spektroskopie. Dies beinhaltet eine penible Bestimmung der orbitalen Bewegung durch die Vermessung von Radialgeschwindigkeitsverschiebungen (RV) und fortgeschrittene Techniken zur Bestimmung der Häufigkeiten der in der Sternatmosphäre vorhandenen Elemente. Gegenüber der konventionellen Kreuzkorrelation zur Bestimmung der RV-Verschiebungen, gilt die Methode des sogenannten 'spectral disentanglings' als überlegen. Daher bestand ein Großteil der vorliegenden Arbeit darin, eine solche Methode in einem weiterentwickelten Softwarepacket zu realisieren. Um sekundäre Effekte zu verstehen, welche zu weiteren Änderungen im Spektrum führen, also insbesondere solche wie Fluss- und Linienprofilvariationen, ist es von zentraler Bedeutung das Verhalten des spectral disentangling durch solche Variabilitäten zu verstehen, sodass die ermittelten Größen besser interpretiert und verbessert, sowie Informationen über die Variabilität selbst abgeleitet werden können. Daher vereint der in dieser Arbeit vorgestellte und der Allgemeinheit offen stehende Algorithmus für das spectral disentangling mehrere Vorteile: Separation der Spektren für detaillierte chemische Analysen, Ableitung der orbitalen Bahnelemente, Ableitung der einzelnen RV-Verschiebungen um auch gestörte Systeme (z.B. durch einen dritten Körper oder relativistische Effekte) analysieren zu können, die Reduktion des Einflusses tellurischer Kontamination, Ableitung der Variabilität und die Möglichkeit der Anwendung auf Bedeckungsveränderliche (wichtig zur Bestimmung der Inklination) bzw. allgemeiner auf Systeme mit Flussvariationen. Der vorgestellte Algorithmus wurde zusammen mit MOOG und SME zur Erzeugung synthetischer Spektren verwendet um das Kohlenstoff-12C/13C Isotopen-Verhältnis (KIV) des Referenzsystems Capella zu bestimmen. Dieses Ergebnis aus Beobachtungen wird in Kontext zur theoretischen Entwicklung durch Verwendung von MESA Modellen gesetzt und löst die Unstimmigkeit zwischen Beobachtung und Theorie die bereits seit der ersten Messung des KIV von Kapella von 1976 existiert. Der Algorithmus für das spectral disentangling ist der Allgemeinheit zugänglich gemacht und wurde auf vollkommen anders verhaltende Objekte, den Wolf-Rayet-Sternen, angewendet, was in einer publizierten Arbeit resultierte. Da die Methode stark von der Qualität der Beobachtungsdaten abhängt, ist eine kontinuierliche Weiterentwicklung der wissenschaftlichen Messtechnik der beobachtenden Astrophysik sehr wichtig um die bestmöglichsten Beobachtungsdaten gewinnen zu können. Daher wurden auch große Anstrengungen in der astronomischen Instrumentierung während dieser Arbeit unternommen.

T1 - Development and application of genetic networks for engineering photo-controlled proteins T1 - Die Entwicklung und Anwendung von genetischen Netzwerken zur Konstruktion von licht-schaltbaren Proteinen N2 - Light-switchable proteins are being used increasingly to understand and manipulate complex molecular systems. The success of this approach has fueled the development of tailored photo-switchable proteins, to enable targeted molecular events to be studied using light. The development of novel photo-switchable tools has to date largely relied on rational design. Complementing this approach with directed evolution would be expected to facilitate these efforts. Directed evolution, however, has been relatively infrequently used to develop photo-switchable proteins due to the challenge presented by high-throughput evaluation of switchable protein activity. This thesis describes the development of two genetic circuits that can be used to evaluate libraries of switchable proteins, enabling optimization of both the on- and off-states. A screening system is described, which permits detection of DNA-binding activity based on conditional expression of a fluorescent protein. In addition, a tunable selection system is presented, which allows for the targeted selection of protein-protein interactions of a desired affinity range. This thesis additionally describes the development and characterization of a synthetic protein that was designed to investigate chromophore reconstitution in photoactive yellow protein (PYP), a promising scaffold for engineering photo-controlled protein tools. N2 - Licht ist eins der wichtigsten Impulse für Lebewesen, denn es dient Energie- und Informationsquelle. Folglich haben Organismen verschiedene Mechanismen entwickelt, um Licht wahrzunehmen und darauf zu reagieren. Pflanzen zum Beispiel haben Proteine, die auf Licht reagieren und dabei einen Prozess auslösen, der dazu führt, dass die Pflanze in Richtung der Sonne wächst. Es wurde Anfang 2000 gezeigt, dass solche licht-reagierende Proteine als wertvolle molekulare Werkzeuge in der Biotechnologie benutzt werden können. Wenn man Licht benutzten kann, um einen molekularen Prozess zu aktivieren (beziehungsweise zu inaktivieren), kann dessen Prozess mit sehr genauer Kontrolle untersucht werden. Manche natürlich vorhandene licht-reagierende Proteine können direkt als licht-schaltbare Werkzeuge benutzt werden, aber häufig müssen solche Proteine geändert werden, um ihre Funktion anzupassen. Eine sehr erfolgreiche Herangehensweise, um die Funktion eines Proteins zu ändern, ist die Herstellung und anschließende Auswertung von Protein-Bibliotheken. Diese Methode nennt sich gerichtete Evolution (engl.: directed evolution). Eine Protein-Bibliothek wird durch die ungezielte Einführung von Mutationen im Gen eines Proteins hergestellt. Die daraus entstandene Sammlung von Proteinen (in der Regel Millionen oder Milliarden) wird danach ausgewertet, um verbesserte Mutanten des Proteins zu identifizieren. Die Auswertung erfolgt mithilfe eines Hochdurchsatz-Screening- oder Selektionssystems. Ein solches System ermöglicht es, Zellen mit Proteinen, die eine gewünschte Funktion trägen, zu identifizieren. Die Entwicklung und Optimierung von licht-schaltbaren Proteinen stellt eine besondere Herausforderung dar; die Aktivität des Proteins muss in einem Zustand (zum Beispiel unter Licht) verbessert werden und im entgegengesetzten Zustand (Dunkelheit) verhindert werden. Darüber hinaus mangelt es an Methoden, die die Hochdurchsatz-Auswertung von schaltbaren Proteinfunktion ermöglichen, welches die Anwendung von gerichteter Evolution verhindert. Das Forschungsgebiet der licht-schaltbaren Proteine würde von der Entwicklung von Systemen profitieren, die die Hochdurchsatz-Auswertung von schaltbaren Proteinfunktion ermöglicht. Diese Dissertation beschreibt die Entwicklung und Optimierung von zwei Systemen, die die Hochdurchsatz-Auswertung von schaltbaren Proteinfunktion ermöglicht. Das erste System verbindet die Produktion eines fluoreszierenden Proteins mit der Aktivität eines licht-schaltbaren Proteins, sodass Information über die Aktivität des Proteins erhalten wird. Das zweite System ermöglicht die Selektion von Protein-Protein-Interaktionen mit gezielter Affinität. Diese Dissertation beschreibt zusätzlich die Untersuchung vom licht-reagierenden Protein Photoactive Yellow Protein (PYP). Auf Grund der großen licht-induzierten strukturellen Veränderungen, ist PYP ein nützliches Proteingerüst zur Entwicklung von licht-schaltbaren Proteinen. In dieser Arbeit wurde die enzymatische Synthese vom PYP Chromophormolekül optimiert. Darüber hinaus wurde die Wiederherstellung von PYP-basierten synthetischen Proteinen zum ersten Mal mit enzymatisch-produziertem Chromophor gezeigt.
