For all copolymers, poly(N-isopropylmethacrylamide) was chosen as non-ionic block that shows a coil-to-globule collapse transition of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) type. In contrast, the chemical structure of zwitterionic blocks, which all belonged to the class of poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate)s, was varied broadly, in order to tune their coil-to-globule collapse transition of the upper critical solution temperature (UCST) type. All polymers were labeled with a solvatochromic fluorescent end-group. The dual thermo-responsive behavior and the resulting multifarious temperature-dependent self-assembly in aqueous solution were mapped by temperature resolved turbidimetry, H-1 NMR spectroscopy, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and fluorescence spectroscopy. Depending on the relative positions between the UCST-type and LCST-type transition temperatures, as well as on the width of the window in-between, all the four possible modes of stimulus induced micellization can be realized. This includes classical induced micellization due to a transition from a double hydrophilic, or respectively, from a double hydrophobic to an amphiphilic state, as well as "schizophrenic" behavior, where the core- and shell-forming blocks are inverted. The exchange of the roles of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic block in the amphiphilic states is possible through a homogeneous intermediate state or a heterogeneous one. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd.

Additionally, responses to land use can differ greatly among different organisms; therefore, overall effects of land-use on total local biodiversity are hardly known. To test for effects of LUI (quantified as the combined intensity of fertilization, grazing, and mowing) and interannual variation in LUI (SD in LUI across time), we introduce a unique measure of whole-ecosystem biodiversity, multidiversity. This synthesizes individual diversity measures across up to 49 taxonomic groups of plants, animals, fungi, and bacteria from 150 grasslands. Multidiversity declined with increasing LUI among grasslands, particularly for rarer species and aboveground organisms, whereas common species and belowground groups were less sensitive. However, a high level of interannual variation in LUI increased overall multidiversity at low LUI and was even more beneficial for rarer species because it slowed the rate at which the multidiversity of rare species declined with increasing LUI. In more intensively managed grasslands, the diversity of rarer species was, on average, 18% of the maximum diversity across all grasslands when LUI was static over time but increased to 31% of the maximum when LUI changed maximally over time. In addition to decreasing overall LUI, we suggest varying LUI across years as a complementary strategy to promote biodiversity conservation.

In the last years conditional dependencies have been introduced to analyze and improve data quality. In short, a conditional dependency is a dependency with a limited scope defined by conditions over one or more attributes. Only the matching part of the instance must adhere to the dependency. In this paper we focus on conditional inclusion dependencies (CINDs). We generalize the definition of CINDs, distinguishing covering and completeness conditions. We present a new use case for such CINDs showing their value for solving complex data quality tasks. Further, we define quality measures for conditions inspired by precision and recall. We propose efficient algorithms that identify covering and completeness conditions conforming to given quality thresholds. Our algorithms choose not only the condition values but also the condition attributes automatically. Finally, we show that our approach efficiently provides meaningful and helpful results for our use case. N2 - Datenabhängigkeiten (wie zum Beispiel Integritätsbedingungen), werden verwendet, um die Qualität eines Datenbankschemas zu erhöhen, um Anfragen zu optimieren und um Konsistenz in einer Datenbank sicherzustellen. In den letzten Jahren wurden bedingte Abhängigkeiten (conditional dependencies) vorgestellt, die die Qualität von Daten analysieren und verbessern sollen. Eine bedingte Abhängigkeit ist eine Abhängigkeit mit begrenztem Gültigkeitsbereich, der über Bedingungen auf einem oder mehreren Attributen definiert wird. In diesem Bericht betrachten wir bedingte Inklusionsabhängigkeiten (conditional inclusion dependencies; CINDs). Wir generalisieren die Definition von CINDs anhand der Unterscheidung von überdeckenden (covering) und vollständigen (completeness) Bedingungen. Wir stellen einen Anwendungsfall für solche CINDs vor, der den Nutzen von CINDs bei der Lösung komplexer Datenqualitätsprobleme aufzeigt. Darüber hinaus definieren wir Qualitätsmaße für Bedingungen basierend auf Sensitivität und Genauigkeit. Wir stellen effiziente Algorithmen vor, die überdeckende und vollständige Bedingungen innerhalb vorgegebener Schwellwerte finden. Unsere Algorithmen wählen nicht nur die Werte der Bedingungen, sondern finden auch die Bedingungsattribute automatisch. Abschließend zeigen wir, dass unser Ansatz effizient sinnvolle und hilfreiche Ergebnisse für den vorgestellten Anwendungsfall liefert.
