TY - JOUR A1 - Berkovich, Ilya T1 - Jewish Mercenaries in Habsburg Service BT - Soldiers of the Freikorps Grün Loudon (1796–98) JF - PaRDeS N2 - This article aims to demonstrate the exceptional potential of Habsburg military records for the study of Jewish history during Europe’s Age of Revolution. We begin with the random discovery of six Jewish veterans of Freikorps Grün Loudon – a unit of mercenary freebooters – which fought for the Habsburgs during the first war against the French Republic (1792 – 97). A careful re-reading of the available archival evidence reveals that these men were the survivors of a much larger group numbering at least two dozen Jewish soldiers. While Jewish conscripts had been drafted into the Habsburg army since 1788, the fact that Jews could also serve – even volunteer – as professional soldiers in that period is completely new to us. When considered together, the personal circumstances and service experiences of the Jewish soldiers of Freikorps Grün Loudon enable us to make several observations about their motivation as well as their position vis-à-vis their non-Jewish comrades.

Until today, these names tell stories about this close relationship and they are an everlasting symbol of this era. By focusing on names, this paper shows how state policies towards Jews shifted over time, and how the perspective on names and name regulations can be a tool to connect and investigate both Habsburg and Jewish studies.

The community’s legal status was transformed following the emancipation of Austrian Jews, but very few first-hand accounts of these changes exist today. The primary sources analyzed in this paper are Judezmo-language newspapers published in Vienna at that time. The paper emphasizes the historical and political contexts surrounding these sources, particularly the community’s close ties to the Ottoman and Habsburg regimes.

This paper aims to examine the formation of these Salonican Jews’ (self-)identification by studying their social interactions with the local Viennese population such as the Viennese Sephardi or the Greek-Orthodox communities. The change of the milieu within which they found themselves subsequently impacted their self-perception. Thus, the issue of the surrounding environment and their relations with other groups became central to their self-understanding, as will be demonstrated. By examining different aspects, like migration patterns, financial decisions and family ties, one can understand how their intersection influenced Salonica Jews’ self-identification, which, at the same time, shaped and was shaped by the surrounding milieu. Within this framework, these people perceived themselves and were perceived as Salonican, Sephardi, Jewish, and as subjects of the Emperor.

After the Josephinian “German-Jewish schools” had closed already in 1806, educational patterns differed from those in Moravia and Bohemia, where Jewish children received a secular education in a more consistent “Jewish” space. In Galicia in the constitutional era (post-1867), however, with mandatory education enforced, public schools became a shared space in which Jews and (Catholic) Christians functioned together. In Galicia, most Jewish children received public education but usually constituted a religious minority in the student body. The article analyzes how the school space, calendar, and routines were adjusted to accommodate the multi-religious character of the student body.

T1 - Clumping in hot-star winds : proceedings of an international workshop held in Potsdam, Germany, 18. - 22. June 2007 N2 - Stellar winds play an important role for the evolution of massive stars and their cosmic environment. Multiple lines of evidence, coming from spectroscopy, polarimetry, variability, stellar ejecta, and hydrodynamic modeling, suggest that stellar winds are non-stationary and inhomogeneous. This is referred to as 'wind clumping'. The urgent need to understand this phenomenon is boosted by its far-reaching implications. Most importantly, all techniques to derive empirical mass-loss rates are more or less corrupted by wind clumping. Consequently, mass-loss rates are extremely uncertain. Within their range of uncertainty, completely different scenarios for the evolution of massive stars are obtained. Settling these questions for Galactic OB, LBV and Wolf-Rayet stars is prerequisite to understanding stellar clusters and galaxies, or predicting the properties of first-generation stars. In order to develop a consistent picture and understanding of clumped stellar winds, an international workshop on 'Clumping in Hot Star Winds' was held in Potsdam, Germany, from 18. - 22. June 2007. About 60 participants, comprising almost all leading experts in the field, gathered for one week of extensive exchange and discussion. The Scientific Organizing Committee (SOC) included John Brown (Glasgow), Joseph Cassinelli (Madison), Paul Crowther (Sheffield), Alex Fullerton (Baltimore), Wolf-Rainer Hamann (Potsdam, chair), Anthony Moffat (Montreal), Stan Owocki (Newark), and Joachim Puls (Munich). These proceedings contain the invited and contributed talks presented at the workshop, and document the extensive discussions.

Welcher Teilprozess genau durch Nikotin beeinflusst wird, ist bislang nicht untersucht worden. Die gängige Interpretation ist, daß Nikotin das Loslösen von Aufmerksamkeit von einem bisher beachteten Ort erleichtert. In fünf Studien, drei elektrophysiologischen und zwei behavioralen wurden drei mögliche Mechanismen der Nikotinwirkung an Nichtrauchern untersucht. Experiment 1 und 2 gingen der Frage nach, ob Nikotin eine Modulation sensorischer gain Kontrolle bewirkt. Dazu wurden ereigniskorrelierte Potentiale (EKP) im Posner-Paradigma erhoben und die Wirkung von Nikotin auf die aufmerksamkeitsassoziierten Komponenten P1 und N1 betrachtet. Nikotin verringerte die Kosten invalider Hinweisreize bei Aufmerksamkeitslenkung durch endogene Hinweisreize, nicht aber bei exogenen Hinweisreizen. Die P1 und N1 Komponenten zeigten sich unbeeinflusst von Nikotin, damit findet also die Annahme einer Wirkung auf sensorische Suppression keine Unterstützung. In Experiment 3 und 4 wurde untersucht, ob Nikotin einen Effekt auf kostenträchtige unwillkürliche Aufmerksamkeitsverschiebungen, Distraktionen, hat. In Experiment 3 wurden in einem räumlichen Daueraufmerksamkeitsparadigma Distraktionen durch deviante Stimulusmerkmale ausgelöst und die Wirkung von Nikotin auf eine distraktionsassoziierte Komponente des EKP, die P3a, betrachtet. In Experiment 4 wurde in einem Hinweisreizparadigma durch zusätzliche Stimuli eine Distraktion ausgelöst und die Nikotinwirkung auf die Reaktionszeitkosten untersucht. Nikotin zeigte keinen Einfluss auf Distraktionskosten in beiden Studien und auch keine Wirkung auf die P3a Komponente in Experiment 3. In Experiment 4 wurde zusätzlich die Wirkung von Nikotin auf das Loslösen von Aufmerksamkeit untersucht, indem die Schwierigkeit des Loslösens variiert wurde. Auch hier zeigte sich keine Nikotinwirkung. Allerdings konnte in beiden Studien weder die häufig berichtete generelle Reaktionszeitverkürzung noch die Verringerung der Kosten invalider Hinweisreize repliziert werden, so dass zum Einen keine Aussage über die Wirkung von Nikotin auf Distraktionen oder den Aufmerksamkeitsloslöseprozess gemacht werden können, zum Anderen sich die Frage stellte, unter welchen Bedingungen Nikotin einen differentiellen Effekt überhaupt zeigt. Im letzten Experiment wurde hierzu die Häufigkeit der Reaktionsanforderung einerseits und die zeitlichen Aspekte der Aufmerksamkeitslenkung andererseits variiert und der Effekt des Nikotins auf den Validitätseffekt, die Reaktionszeitdifferenz zwischen valide und invalide vorhergesagten Zielreizen, betrachtet. Nikotin verringerte bei Individuen, bei denen Aufmerksamkeitslenkung in allen Bedingungen evident war, in der Tendenz den Validitätseffekt in der ereignisärmsten Bedingung, wenn nur selten willentliche Aufmerksamkeitsausrichtung notwendig war. Dies könnte als Hinweis gedeutet werden, dass Nikotin unter Bedingungen, die große Anforderungen an die Vigilanz stellen, die top-down Zuweisung von Aufmerksamkeitsressourcen unterstützt. N2 - Nicotine has consistently been shown to improve performance on a range of attentional tasks. In spatial cueing (Posner-type) paradigms, where a cue indicates the likely location of a subsequent target stimulus, nicotine influences the ability to react to invalidly cued targets across different species and ways of administration. Previous research suggested that the cholinergic effect is due to a facilitated disengagemant of attention from the cued location. In five studies with nonsmoking subjects, three candidate mechanisms of nicotinic action were examined. Experiment 1 and experiment 2 investigated whether nicotine modulates attentional processes of sensory gain control. In a Posner-paradigm event-related potentials (ERP) were measured and the effect of nicotine on the attention-related components P1 and N1 was assessed. Behaviorally, nicotine reduced the costs of invalid cueing when cues were endogenous, but not with exogenous cues. Electrophysiologically, the P1 and N1 components were not affected by nicotine. These data provide therefore no support for the notion of a nicotine-modulated attentional suppression. In experiment 3 and 4 the effect of nicotine on involuntary distracting attention shifts was investigated. In experiment 3 ERPs were measured in a spatial sustained attention paradigm, where rare changes in a target stimulus attribute were used as distractors. The effect of nicotine on the distraction-associated P3a component was assessed. In experiment 4 the effect of nicotine on the reaction time costs of additional distracting stimuli was studied in a Posner paradigm. In both studies nicotine did not show an effect on distractions, neither in the reaction time costs nor in the parameters of the P3a component. Experiment 4 also investigated whether nicotine has an effect on the disengagement of attention by varying the difficulty of disengaging one's focus from the cued location. Again, nicotine did not show an effect. However, experiment 3 and 4 also neither replicated the commonly reported general nicotinic reduction of reaction times nor the differential reduction of the costs of invalid cueing. Therefore, regarding the effect of nicotine on distraction and on the disengagement of attention the data remain inconclusive. However, these data suggest that there are conditions and mechanisms moderating nicotinic action, that are still unknown. Accordingly, experiment 5 made the attempt to determine such conditions. Response frequency and temporal characteristics of attention orientation were varied. In individuals, who evidently had shifted their attention, nicotine reduced the validity effect under uneventful conditions, when attention was not to be shifted in each trial. This might suggest that nicotine facilitates the top-down allocation of attentional resources in vigilance-demanding situations.

Die Daten wurden mit GLMM-Analysen ausgewertet. Auch bei der jetzt vollständigen Erfassung aller Flow-Komponenten mit der FKS bestätigte sich das „Paradoxon der Arbeit“, wonach während der Arbeit höhere Flow-Werte, aber niedrigere Werte für Glück/Zufriedenheit auftreten als jeweils in der Freizeit.

Im Freizeitbereich war der Effekt von Zielausrichtung auf Glück/Zufriedenheit sogar negativ. Das „Paradoxon der Arbeit“ lässt sich partiell als Effekt der Zielausrichtung verstehen. N2 - For a week, data of N =101 employees with different professions was collected with the Experience Sampling Method (N = 4603 measurements). These data included flow-experience, happiness/satisfaction and goal adjustment of current activities. The data were analysed with GLMM. Flow-experience was measured with all components (FKS) and they confirmed the "paradox of work" (i.e., flow-scores are higher during work but scores for happiness/satisfaction are higher during spare time). During work, participants activities were more often directed towards reaching a goal. The effects of goal adjustment on flow vs. happiness/satisfaction differed significantly. During work goal adjustment had a strong positive effect on flow, but not on happiness/satisfaction. During leisure time goal adjustment had even a negative effect on happiness/satisfaction but a positive on flow. The "paradox of work" could be partially attributed to the stronger goal adjustment during work.

The psychophysical method required adjusting the radiance of a 1°, monochromatic light (400–550 nm) to minimize flicker (15 Hz) when presented in counterphase with a 460 nm standard. This test stimulus was presented superimposed on a broad-band, short-wave background. Macular pigment density was determined by comparing sensitivity under these conditions for the fovea, where macular pigment is maximal, and 5° temporally. This difference spectrum, measured for 12 observers, matched Wyszecki and Stiles's standard density spectrum for macular pigment. To study variation in macular pigment density for a larger group of observers, measurements were made at only selected spectral points (460, 500 and 550 nm). The mean optical density at 460 nm for the complete sample of 50 subjects was 0.39. Substantial individual differences in density were found (ca. 0.10–0.80), but this variation was not systematically related to age.

This comment raises some statistical and theoretical problems with their use of simultaneous regression analysis of gaze duration measures and with the resulting theory of reading. A major problem was the confounding of perceptual with psycholinguistic factors. New eye fixation data are presented to support these criticisms. Analysis of fixations within words revealed that most gaze duration variance was contributed by number of fixations rather than by fixation duration.

T1 - Development of phonetic memory in disabled and normal readers N2 - The development of phonetic codes in memory of 141 pairs of normal and disabled readers from 7.8 to 16.8 years of age was tested with a task adapted from L. S. Mark, D. Shankweiler, I. Y. Liberman, and C. A. Fowler (Memory & Cognition, 1977, 5, 623–629) that measured false-positive errors in recognition memory for foil words which rhymed with words in the memory list versus foil words that did not rhyme. Our younger subjects replicated Mark et al., showing a larger difference between rhyming and nonrhyming false-positive errors for the normal readers. The older disabled readers' phonetic effect was comparable to that of the younger normal readers, suggesting a developmental lag in their use of phonetic coding in memory. Surprisingly, the normal readers' phonetic effect declined with age in the recognition task, but they maintained a significant advantage across age in the auditory WISC-R digit span recall test, and a test of phonological nonword decoding. The normals' decline with age in rhyming confusion may be due to an increase in the precision of their phonetic codes.

The present study illustrates this claim in a test of sentence interpretation by German-, Italian-, and English-speaking adults. Subjects were presented with simple transitive sentences in which contrasts of (1) word order, (2) agreement, (3) animacy, and (4) stress were systematically varied. For each sentence, subjects were asked to state which of the two nouns was the actor. The results indicated that Americans relied overwhelming on word order, using a first-noun strategy in NVN and a second-noun strategy in VNN and NNV sentences. Germans relied on both agreement and animacy. Italians showed extreme reliance on agreement cues. In both German and Italian, stress played a role in terms of complex interactions with word order and agreement. The findings were interpreted in terms of the “competition model” of Bates and MacWhinney (in H. Winitz (Ed.), Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences Conference on Native and Foreign Language Acquisition. New York: New York Academy of Sciences, 1982) in which cue validity is considered to be the primary determinant of cue strength. According to this model, cues are said to be high in validity when they are also high in applicability and reliability.

Young planets in close-in orbits are exposed to harsh environments due to the host star being magnetically highly active, which results in high X-ray and extreme UV fluxes impinging on the planet. Prolonged exposure to this intense photoionizing radiation can cause planetary atmospheres to heat up, expand and escape into space via a hydrodynamic escape process known as photoevaporation. For super-Earth and sub-Neptune-type planets, this can even lead to the complete erosion of their primordial gaseous atmospheres. A factor of interest for this particular mass-loss process is the activity evolution of the host star. Stellar rotation, which drives the dynamo and with it the magnetic activity of a star, changes significantly over the stellar lifetime. This strongly affects the amount of high-energy radiation received by a planet as stars age. At a young age, planets still host warm and extended envelopes, making them particularly susceptible to atmospheric evaporation. Especially in the first gigayear, when X-ray and UV levels can be 100 - 10,000 times higher than for the present-day sun, the characteristics of the host star and the detailed evolution of its high-energy emission are of importance. In this thesis, I study the impact of stellar activity evolution on the high-energy-induced atmospheric mass loss of young exoplanets. The PLATYPOS code was developed as part of this thesis to calculate photoevaporative mass-loss rates over time. The code, which couples parameterized planetary mass-radius relations with an analytical hydrodynamic escape model, was used, together with Chandra and eROSITA X-ray observations, to investigate the future mass loss of the two young multiplanet systems V1298 Tau and K2-198. Further, in a numerical ensemble study, the effect of a realistic spread of activity tracks on the small-planet radius gap was investigated for the first time. The works in this thesis show that for individual systems, in particular if planetary masses are unconstrained, the difference between a young host star following a low-activity track vs. a high-activity one can have major implications: the exact shape of the activity evolution can determine whether a planet can hold on to some of its atmosphere, or completely loses its envelope, leaving only the bare rocky core behind. For an ensemble of simulated planets, an observationally-motivated distribution of activity tracks does not substantially change the final radius distribution at ages of several gigayears. My simulations indicate that the overall shape and slope of the resulting small-planet radius gap is not significantly affected by the spread in stellar activity tracks. However, it can account for a certain scattering or fuzziness observed in and around the radius gap of the observed exoplanet population. N2 - Die steigende Anzahl bekannter Exoplaneten wirft Fragen zu ihrer Demografie und den Mechanismen auf, die Planeten in ihre heutige beobachtete Form bringen. Junge Planeten, die sehr nah um ihren Wirtsstern kreisen, sind extremen Umgebungen ausgesetzt, da der Stern eine hohe magnetische Aktivität aufweist. Das führt wiederum dazu, dass der Planet einer enormen Röntgen- und Extrem-UV-Strahlung ausgesetzt ist. Ist der Planet über einen längeren Zeitraum dieser intensiven photoionisierenden Strahlung ausgesetzt, kann dies dazu führen, dass Planetenatmosphären sich aufheizen, ausdehnen und durch einen hydrodynamischen Entweichungsprozess namens Photoevaporation ins All entweichen, sozusagen verdampfen. Bei Planeten, in der Größenordnung von Super-Erden und Sub-Neptunen, kann dies sogar zur vollständigen Erosion ihrer Ur-Atmosphären führen. Ein interessanter Faktor, der für diesen Massenverlustprozess eine Rolle spielt, ist die Aktivitätsentwicklung des Wirtssterns. Die Rotation eines Sterns, die den Dynamo und damit die magnetische Aktivität antreibt, ändert sich im Laufe der Lebensdauer eines Sterns erheblich. Dies hat einen starken Einfluss auf die Menge der hochenergetischen Strahlung, den ein Planet mit zunehmendem Alter des Sterns empfängt. In jungen Jahren besitzen Planeten noch warme und ausgedehnte Hüllen, was sie besonders anfällig für atmosphärische Verdunstung macht. Insbesondere in den ersten Gigajahren, wenn die Röntgen- und UV-Strahlung 100 - 10,000 Mal höher sein kann als bei der heutigen Sonne, sind die Eigenschaften des Wirtssterns und die detaillierte Entwicklung seiner hochenergetischen Emission von Bedeutung. In dieser Arbeit untersuche ich die Auswirkungen der Entwicklung der stellaren Aktivität auf den durch hochenergetische Strahlung verursachten atmosphärischen Massenverlust junger Exoplaneten. Der PLATYPOS-Code wurde im Rahmen dieser Arbeit entwickelt, um die photoevaporativen Massenverlustraten für verschiedene stellare Alter zu berechnen. Der Code verknüpft parametrisierte Planetenmasse-Radius-Beziehungen mit einem analytischen Modell für den hydrodynamischen Massenverlust. Er wurde zusammen mit Chandra- und eROSITA-Röntgenbeobachtungen dazu verwendet, den zukünftigen Massenverlust der beiden jungen Mehrplanetensysteme V1298 Tau und K2-198 zu untersuchen. Darüber hinaus wurde in einer numerischen Ensemblestudie erstmals der Effekt einer realistischen Verteilung von stellaren Aktivitäts-Tracks auf das sogenannte Radius-Tal bei kleinen Planeten untersucht. Die Arbeiten in dieser Dissertation zeigen, dass für einzelne Systeme, insbesondere wenn die Planetenmassen unbestimmt sind, der Unterschied zwischen einem jungen Wirtsstern, der einem Track mit niedriger Aktivität gegenüber einem solchen mit hoher Aktivität folgt, gravierende Auswirkungen haben kann: Die genaue Form der Aktivitätsentwicklung kann darüber entscheiden, ob ein Planet einen Teil seiner Atmosphäre behält oder seine Hülle vollständig verliert und nur den nackten Gesteinskern behält. Für ein Ensemble von simulierten Planeten ändert eine durch Beobachtungen motivierte Verteilung von Aktivitäts-Tracks die endgültige Radiusverteilung der Planeten nach mehreren Gigajahren nicht wesentlich. Meine Simulationen deuten darauf hin, dass die Form und Steigung des sich ergebenden Radius-Tals bei Kleinplaneten nicht wesentlich von der Streuung der stellaren Aktivitäts-Tracks beeinflusst wird. Eine gewisse Streuung oder Unschärfe im Radius-Tal der beobachteten Exoplanetenpopulation kann damit allerdings durchaus erklärt werden.

Combined with constraints based on physiological measurements, these models have been used to accurately predict metabolic fluxes and effects of perturbations (e.g. knock-outs) and to inform metabolic engineering strategies. Recently, protein-constrained models have been shown to increase predictive potential (especially in overflow metabolism), while alleviating the need for measurement of nutrient uptake rates. The resulting modelling frameworks quantify the upkeep cost of a certain metabolic flux as the minimum amount of enzyme required for catalysis. These improvements are based on the use of in vitro turnover numbers or in vivo apparent catalytic rates of enzymes for model parameterization. In this thesis several tools for the estimation and refinement of these parameters based on in vivo proteomics data of Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii have been developed and applied. The difference between in vitro and in vivo catalytic rate measures for the three microorganisms was systematically analyzed. The results for the facultatively heterotrophic microalga C. reinhardtii considerably expanded the apparent catalytic rate estimates for photosynthetic organisms. Our general finding pointed at a global reduction of enzyme efficiency in heterotrophy compared to other growth scenarios. Independent of the modelled organism, in vivo estimates were shown to improve accuracy of predictions of protein abundances compared to in vitro values for turnover numbers. To further improve the protein abundance predictions, machine learning models were trained that integrate features derived from protein-constrained modelling and codon usage. Combining the two types of features outperformed single feature models and yielded good prediction results without relying on experimental transcriptomic data. The presented work reports valuable advances in the prediction of enzyme allocation in unseen scenarios using protein constrained metabolic models. It marks the first successful application of this modelling framework in the biotechnological important taxon of green microalgae, substantially increasing our knowledge of the enzyme catalytic landscape of phototrophic microorganisms. N2 - Genomweite Stoffwechselmodelle sind mathematische Darstellungen aller bekannten Reaktionen, die in einer Zelle ablaufen. In Kombination mit Einschränkungen, die auf physiologischen Messungen beruhen, wurden diese Modelle zur genauen Vorhersage von Stoffwechselflüssen und Auswirkungen von Manipulationene (z. B. Knock-outs) sowie zum Entwerfen von Metabolic Engineering Strategien verwendet. In jüngster Zeit hat sich gezeigt, dass proteinlimitierte Modelle, welche die Menge an Proteinen in einer Zelle als Modelbeschränkungen integrieren, ein erweitertes Modellierungspotenzial besitzen (insbesondere beim Überflussstoffwechsel) und gleichzeitig die Messungen der Nährstoffaufnahmerate eines Organismus optional machen. Die resultierenden Modelle quantifizieren die Unterhaltskosten eines bestimmten Stoffwechselflusses als die für die Katalyse erforderliche Mindestmenge an Enzymen. Die beobachtete Verbesserungen in den Voraussagefähigkeiten solcher Modelle werden durch die Parameterisierung mit unterschiedlichen in vitro und in vivo Approximationen der maximalen katalytischen Effizienz (Wechselzahl) aller Enyzme eines Organismus ermöglicht. In dieser Arbeit wurden verschiedene Verfahren zur Schätzung und Verfeinerung dieser Parameter auf der Grundlage von in vivo Proteomikdaten der Organismen Escherichia coli, Saccharomyces cerevisiae und Chlamydomonas reinhardtii entwickelt und angewendet. Der Unterschied zwischen den in vitro und in vivo berechneten katalytischen Raten für die drei Mikroorganismen wurde systematisch analysiert. Die Ergebnisse für die fakultativ heterotrophe Mikroalge C. reinhardtii erweitern die Menge an verfügbaren enzymkatalytischen Parametern für photosynthetische Organismen erheblich. Weiterhin deuten unsere Ergbnisse für C. reinhardtii auf eine globale Verringerung der Enzymeffizienz bei Heterotrophie im Vergleich zu anderen Wachstumsszenarien hin. Unabhängig vom modellierten Organismus konnte gezeigt werden, dass geschätzte in vivo Wechselzahlen die Genauigkeit der Vorhersagen von Proteinmengen im Vergleich zu in vitro Werten verbessern. Um die Vorhersagen von Proteinmengen weiter zu verbessern, wurden Modelle aus dem Bereich des maschinellen Lernens trainiert, die Prediktoren basierend auf der proteinlimitierten Modellierung und der Proteinsequenz integrieren. Die Kombination der beiden Arten von Prediktoren übertraf die Leistung von Modellen mit nur einer Art von Prediktoren und lieferte gute Vorhersageergebnisse, ohne auf experimentelle Transkriptionsdaten angewiesen zu sein. Die vorgestellte Arbeit stellt einen wertvollen Fortschritt bei der Vorhersage der Enzymallokation in unbekannten Szenarien unter Verwendung von proteinlimitierten Stoffwechselmodellen dar. Sie markiert die erste erfolgreiche Anwendung dieses Modellierungsverfahren in dem biotechnologisch wichtigen Taxon der grünen Mikroalgen und erweitert unser Wissen über die enzymkatalytische Landschaft phototropher Mikroorganismen entscheidend.

The onset and magnitude of the Holocene climate optimum in the Asian monsoon realm, in particular, is a subject of considerable debate as this time period is often used as an analogue for recent global warming. In the light of contradictory inferences regarding past climate and environmental change on the Tibetan Plateau, I have attempted to explain mismatches in the timing and magnitude of change. Therefore, I analysed the temporal variation of fossil pollen and diatom spectra and the geochemical record from palaeo-ecological records covering different time scales (late Quaternary and the last 200 years) from two core regions in the NE and SE Tibetan Plateau. For interpretation purposes I combined my data with other available palaeo-ecological data to set up corresponding aquatic and terrestrial proxy data sets of two lake pairs and two sets of sites. I focused on the direct comparison of proxies representing lacustrine response to climate signals (e.g., diatoms, ostracods, geochemical record) and proxies representing changes in the terrestrial environment (i.e., terrestrial pollen), in order to asses whether the lake and its catchments respond at similar times and magnitudes to environmental changes. Therefore, I introduced the established numerical technique procrustes rotation as a new approach in palaeoecology to quantitatively compare raw data of any two sedimentary records of interest in order to assess their degree of concordance. Focusing on the late Quaternary, sediment cores from two lakes (Kuhai Lake 35.3°N; 99.2°E; 4150 m asl; and Koucha Lake 34.0°N; 97.2°E; 4540 m asl) on the semi-arid northeastern Tibetan Plateau were analysed to identify post-glacial vegetation and environmental changes, and to investigate the responses of lake ecosystems to such changes. Based on the pollen record, five major vegetation and climate changes could be identified: (1) A shift from alpine desert to alpine steppe indicates a change from cold, dry conditions to warmer and more moist conditions at 14.8 cal. ka BP, (2) alpine steppe with tundra elements points to conditions of higher effective moisture and a stepwise warming climate at 13.6 cal. ka BP, (3) the appearance of high-alpine meadow vegetation indicates a further change towards increased moisture, but with colder temperatures, at 7.0 cal. ka BP, (4) the reoccurrence of alpine steppe with desert elements suggests a return to a significantly colder and drier phase at 6.3 cal. ka BP, and (5) the establishment of alpine steppe-meadow vegetation indicates a change back to relatively moist conditions at 2.2 cal. ka BP. To place the reconstructed climate inferences from the NE Tibetan Plateau into the context of Holocene moisture evolution across the Tibetan Plateau, I applied a five-scale moisture index and average link clustering to all available continuous pollen and non-pollen palaeoclimate records from the Tibetan Plateau, in an attempt to detect coherent regional and temporal patterns of moisture evolution on the Plateau. However, no common temporal or spatial pattern of moisture evolution during the Holocene could be detected, which can be assigned to the complex responses of different proxies to environmental changes in an already very heterogeneous mountain landscape, where minor differences in elevation can result in marked variations in microenvironments. Focusing on the past 200 years, I analysed the sedimentary records (LC6 Lake 29.5°N, 94.3°E, 4132 m asl; and Wuxu Lake 29.9°N, 101.1°E, 3705 m asl) from the southeastern Tibetan Plateau. I found that despite presumed significant temperature increases over that period, pollen and diatom records from the SE Tibetan Plateau reveal only very subtle changes throughout their profiles. The compositional species turnover investigated over the last 200 years appears relatively low in comparison to the species reorganisations during the Holocene. The results indicate that climatically induced ecological thresholds are not yet crossed, but that human activity has an increasing influence, particularly on the terrestrial ecosystem. Forest clearances and reforestation have not caused forest decline in our study area, but a conversion of natural forests to semi-natural secondary forests. The results from the numerical proxy comparison of the two sets of two pairs of Tibetan lakes indicate that the use of different proxies and the work with palaeo-ecological records from different lake types can cause deviant stories of inferred change. Irrespective of the timescale (Holocene or last 200 years) or region (SE or NE Tibetan Plateau) analysed, the agreement in terms of the direction, timing, and magnitude of change between the corresponding terrestrial data sets is generally better than the match between the corresponding lacustrine data sets, suggesting that lacustrine proxies may partly be influenced by in-lake or local catchment processes whereas the terrestrial proxy reflects a more regional climatic signal. The current disaccord on coherent temporal and spatial climate patterns on the Tibetan Plateau can partly be ascribed to the complexity of proxy response and lake systems on the Tibetan Plateau. Therefore, a multi-proxy, multi-site approach is important in order to gain a reliable climate interpretation for the complex mountain landscape of the Tibetan Plateau. N2 - Die räumlichen und zeitlichen Temperatur- und Feuchtigkeitsmuster auf dem Tibet-Plateau sind sehr komplex. Im Einzugsbereich der asiatischen Monsune sind insbesondere der Beginn und das Ausmaß des Klimaoptimums während des Holozäns von wissenschaftlichem Interesse, da diese Periode oft als Analogie für die derzeitige globale Klimaerwärmung herangezogen wird. In Hinblick auf sich teilweise widersprechende Paläoklima- und Umweltrekonstruktionen für das Tibet-Plateau, ist es mein Ziel, die bestehenden Unstimmigkeiten bezüglich des Zeitpunktes und des Ausmaßes des Umweltwandels zu erklären. Dafür wurden von mir zeitliche Variationen fossiler Pollen- und Diatomeenspektren und geochemische Untersuchungen an Seesedimenten unterschiedlicher Zeitskalen (Spätquartär und die letzten 200 Jahre) aus zwei Kernregionen auf dem NO und SO Tibet-Plateau analysiert. Zur Unterstützung der Interpretation wurden die hier erhobenen Daten mit bereits vorhandenen paläoökologischen Aufzeichnungen der Lokalitäten kombiniert, um Datensätze der entsprechenden aquatischen und terrestrischen Proxy-Daten (Stellvertreterdaten) zweier Seenpaare aus den beiden Regionen gegenüberstellen zu können. Hierbei konzentrierte ich mich auf den direkten Vergleich von Proxies, die die Seenentwicklung reflektieren (z.B. Diatomeen, Ostracoden, geochemische Eigenschaften), mit Proxies, die Veränderungen der terrestrischen Umgebung des Sees beschreiben (terrestrische Pollen). Durch diesen Vergleich lässt sich beurteilen, ob Veränderungen im See selbst mit Umweltveränderungen in dem jeweiligen Einzugsgebiet zeitlich übereinstimmen. Dafür habe ich die bereits etablierte numerische Methode Procrustes-Rotation als neuen Ansatz in der Paläoökologie eingeführt. Damit ist ein quantitativer Vergleich von Rohdaten zweier beliebiger sedimentärer Datensätze möglich, um den Grad der Übereinstimmung zu prüfen. Um die in dieser Arbeit rekonstruierten Umwelt- und Klimaereignisse des nordöstlichen Tibet-Plateaus in einen größeren Zusammenhang hinsichtlich holozäner Klimaentwicklung des gesamten Plateaus setzen zu können, und um schlüssige zeitliche und räumliche Klimatrends auf dem Plateau erkennen zu können, habe ich auf alle vorhandenen Paläoklimadatensätze einen Fünf-Skalen Feuchtigkeitsindex und eine Clusteranalyse angewandt. Es konnten jedoch keine einheitlichen zeitlichen und räumlichen Trends der holozänen Klimaentwicklung nachgewiesen werden, was meiner Analyse entsprechend, auf die komplexen Reaktionen verschiedener Proxies auf Umweltveränderungen in einer ohnehin sehr heterogen Berglandschaft, zurückgeführt werden kann. Die Ergebnisse des numerischen Proxy-Vergleichs beider Seenpaare zeigen, dass die Verwendung von verschiedenen Proxies und die Arbeit mit paläo-ökologischen Datensätzen unterschiedlicher See-Typen zu abweichenden Klimaableitungen führen können. Unabhängig vom untersuchten Zeitraum (Holozän oder die letzten 200 Jahren) oder der Region (SO oder NO Tibet-Plateau), ist die Übereinstimmung zweier Datensätze hinsichtlich der Richtung, des Zeitpunktes und des Ausmaßes der abgeleiteten Paläo-Umweltverhältnisse in der Regel zwischen den entsprechenden terrestrischen Datensätzen besser als zwischen den entsprechenden lakustrinen Datensätzen. Die derzeitige Uneinigkeit über stimmige zeitliche und räumliche Klimatrends auf dem Tibet-Plateau kann daher teilweise der Komplexität der verschieden Proxies und ihrer individuellen Empfindlichkeiten gegenüber Umweltveränderungen sowie der unterschiedlichen Reaktionsweise verschiedenartiger See-Systeme auf dem Plateau zugeschrieben werden. Meine Ergebnisse zeigen, dass ein „Multi-Proxy-Multi-Site-Ansatz“ für zuverlässige Paläoklimaableitungen für das Tibet-Plateau von zentraler Bedeutung ist.

The temporal and spatial propagation of intensity modulated light with frequencies up to more than 1 GHz can be described by the P1 approximation to the Boltzmann transport equation. In this study, we establish requirements for the appropriate choice of turbid model media and characterize mixtures of isosulfan blue as absorber and polystyrene beads as scatterer. For these model media, the independent determination of absorption and reduced scattering coefficients over large absorber and scatterer concentration ranges is demonstrated with a frequency domain photon density wave spectrometer employing intensity and phase measurements at various modulation frequencies.

However, understanding and predicting the effects of land use and climate change on scales relevant for decision-making requires to include both, large scale vegetation dynamics and small scale processes, such as soil-plant interactions. Integrating the results of multiple BIOTA subprojects enabled us to include necessary data of soil science, botany, socio-economics and remote sensing into a high resolution, process-based and spatially-explicit model. Using an example from a sustainably-used research farm and a communally used and degraded farming area in semiarid southern Namibia we show the power of simulation models as a tool to integrate processes across disciplines and scales.

This leads to habitat loss and is assumed to reduce species diversity. In BIOTA phase 1, we investigated the effects of land use on population dynamics on farm scale. In phase 2 we scale up to consider the whole regional landscape consisting of a diverse mosaic of farms with different historic and present land use intensities. This mosaic creates a heterogeneous, dynamic pattern of structural diversity at a large spatial scale. Understanding how the region-wide dynamic land use pattern affects the abundance of animal and plant species requires the integration of processes on large as well as on small spatial scales. In our multidisciplinary approach, we integrate information from remote sensing, genetic and ecological field studies as well as small scale process models in a dynamic region-wide simulation tool.
