Sign and size of this spatial effect on 1H chemical shifts of protons in norbornene, exo- and endo-2-methylnorbornenes, and in three highly congested tetracyclic norbornene analogs have been compared with the experimental 1H NMR spectra as far as published. 1H NMR spectra have also been calculated at the HF/6-31G* level of theory to get a full, comparable set of proton chemical shifts. Differences between ;(1H)/ppm and the calculated anisotropic effect of the C=C double bond are discussed in terms of the steric compression that occurs in the compounds studied.}, language = {en} } @article{KleinpeterWernerKoch2013, author = {Kleinpeter, Erich and Werner, Peter and Koch, Andreas}, title = {Push-pull allenes-conjugation, (anti)aromaticity and quantification of the push-pull character}, series = {Tetrahedron}, volume = {69}, journal = {Tetrahedron}, number = {11}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Oxford}, issn = {0040-4020}, doi = {10.1016/j.tet.2013.01.027}, pages = {2436 -- 2445}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Structures, H-1/C-13 chemical shifts, and pi electron distribution/conjugation of an experimentally available and theoretically completed set of push-pull allenes Acc(2)C=C=CDon(2) (Acc=F, CHO, CF3, C N; Don=t-Bu, OMe, OEt, SMe, SEt, NCH2R) have been computed at the OFT level of theory.

Our method is substantially different from previous analyses, as it does not rely on direct estimates of star formation rate, but on the differential evolution of the galaxy stellar mass function (SMF). We show the reliability of this approach by means of semianalytical and hydrodynamical cosmological simulations. We then apply it to real data, using the SMFs derived in the COSMOS and CANDELS fields. We find that the sSFR is proportional to (1 + z)(1.1) (+/-) (0.2) at z > 2, in agreement with other observations but in tension with the steeper evolution predicted by simulations from z similar to 4 to 2. We investigate the impact of several sources of observational bias, which, however, cannot account for this discrepancy. Although the SMF of high-redshift galaxies is still affected by significant errors, we show that future large-area surveys will substantially reduce them, making our method an effective tool to probe the massive end of the main sequence of star-forming galaxies.}, language = {en} } @article{KleebergHupferGustetal.2013, author = {Kleeberg, Andreas and Hupfer, Michael and Gust, Giselher and Salka, Ivette and Pohlmann, Kirsten and Grossart, Hans-Peter}, title = {Intermittent riverine resuspension effects on phosphorus transformations and heterotrophic bacteria}, series = {Limnology and oceanography}, volume = {58}, journal = {Limnology and oceanography}, number = {2}, publisher = {Wiley}, address = {Waco}, issn = {0024-3590}, doi = {10.4319/lo.2013.58.2.0635}, pages = {635 -- 652}, year = {2013}, abstract = {Intermittent riverine resuspension (IRR), a common phenomenon, was applied to investigate its effects on sedimentary resources availability and bacteria in the water column. This lab experiment used organic-rich lowland river sediment in a newly designed erosion chamber, the Benthic Water Column Simulator, generating well-defined ratios of shear velocity u* to turbulence intensity. Eight consecutive resuspension events, 1-8, were initiated at u* = 1.1 cm s(-1). Sedimentary and phosphorus entrainment decreased from 20.4 g m(-2) h(-1) and 111.6 mg m(-2) h(-1) at event 1 to 1.31 g m(-2) h(-1) and 18.7 mg m(-2) h(-1) at event 8, suggesting an exhaustion of particulate and dissolved sediment constituents. Entrainment of particle-associated (PA) bacteria (132.7 x 10(9)-251.1 x 10(9) cells m(-2) h(-1)) was strongly correlated to that of particles. Free-living (FL) bacteria (-27.6 x 10(9)-36.4 x 10(9) cells m(-2) h(-1)) were fractionally entrained. Numbers of PA bacteria remained low after each event, whereas those of FL bacteria strongly increased 5-15 h after an event because of growth due to increased availability of dissolved organic carbon and inorganic nutrients following each event. FL bacteria community structure also changed during IRR. The systematic changes over consecutive IRR cycles show a strong effect in all considered parameters that elude the typical single-event, steady-state experiments. IRR should thus be considered in two respects: experimental protocols on riverine water quality should be revised. In ecosystem modeling, IRR should be considered to better predict extent and effect of resuspension. Only IRR adequately reflects the natural interplay between hydrodynamics and organisms in rivers.}, language = {en} } @article{McHuronAdamczakArnouldetal.2022, author = {McHuron, Elizabeth A. and Adamczak, Stephanie and Arnould, John P.

There remain considerable gaps in our knowledge of marine mammal bioenergetics, which hinder the application of bioenergetic studies to inform policy decisions. We conducted a priority-setting exercise to identify high-priority unanswered questions in marine mammal bioenergetics, with an emphasis on questions relevant to conservation and management. Electronic communication and a virtual workshop were used to solicit and collate potential research questions from the marine mammal bioenergetic community. From a final list of 39 questions, 11 were identified as 'key'questions because they received votes from at least 50\% of survey participants. Key questions included those related to energy intake (prey landscapes, exposure to human activities) and expenditure (field metabolic rate, exposure to human activities, lactation, time-activity budgets), energy allocation priorities, metrics of body condition and relationships with survival and reproductive success and extrapolation of data from one species to another. Existing tools to address key questions include labelled water, animal-borne sensors, mark-resight data from long-term research programs, environmental DNA and unmanned vehicles. Further validation of existing approaches and development of new methodologies are needed to comprehensively address some key questions, particularly for cetaceans. The identification of these key questions can provide a guiding framework to set research priorities, which ultimately may yield more accurate information to inform policies and better conserve marine mammal populations.}, language = {en} } @article{TschornRieckmannAroltetal.2019, author = {Tschorn, Mira and Rieckmann, Nina and Arolt, Volker and Beer, Katja and Haverkamp, Wilhelm and Martus, Peter and Waltenberger, Johannes and M{\"u}ller-Nordhorn, Jacqueline and Str{\"o}hle, Andreas}, title = {Erkennungsg{\"u}te dreier deutschsprachiger Screeninginstrumente f{\"u}r Depression bei hospitalisierten Patienten mit koronarer Herzerkrankung}, series = {Psychiatrische Praxis}, volume = {46}, journal = {Psychiatrische Praxis}, number = {1}, publisher = {Thieme}, address = {Stuttgart}, issn = {0303-4259}, doi = {10.1055/s-0042-123434}, pages = {41 -- 48}, year = {2019}, abstract = {Ziel Vergleich der Erkennungsg{\"u}te von drei Depressions-Screeninginstrumenten bei Patienten mit koronarer Herzerkrankung (KHK).
