The cycling of carbon (C) between the Earth surface and the atmosphere is controlled by biological and abiotic processes that regulate C storage in biogeochemical compartments and release to the atmosphere. This partitioning is quantified using various forms of C-use efficiency (CUE) - the ratio of C remaining in a system to C entering that system. Biological CUE is the fraction of C taken up allocated to biosynthesis. In soils and sediments, C storage depends also on abiotic processes, so the term C-storage efficiency (CSE) can be used. Here we first review and reconcile CUE and CSE definitions proposed for autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms and communities, food webs, whole ecosystems and watersheds, and soils and sediments using a common mathematical framework. Second, we identify general CUE patterns; for example, the actual CUE increases with improving growth conditions, and apparent CUE decreases with increasing turnover. We then synthesize > 5000CUE estimates showing that CUE decreases with increasing biological and ecological organization - from uni-cellular to multicellular organisms and from individuals to ecosystems. We conclude that CUE is an emergent property of coupled biological-abiotic systems, and it should be regarded as a flexible and scale-dependent index of the capacity of a given system to effectively retain C.
Das prolongierte Weaning von Patienten mit neurologischen oder neurochirurgischen Erkrankungen weist Besonderheiten auf, denen die Deutsche Gesellschaft für Neurorehabilitation e. V. in einer eigenen Leitlinie Rechnung trägt.
Im Hinblick auf Definitionen (z. B. Weaningerfolg und -versagen), Weaningkategorien, Pathophysiologie des Weaningversagens und allgemeine Weaningstrategien wird ausdrücklich auf die aktuelle S2k-Leitlinie der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Pneumologie und Beatmungsmedizin e. V. verwiesen.
In der neurologisch-neurochirurgischen Frührehabilitation werden Patienten mit zentralen Störungen der Atmungsregulation (z. B. Hirnstammläsionen), des Schluckaktes (neurogene Dysphagien), mit neuromuskulären Problemen (z. B. Critical-illness-Polyneuropathie, Guillain-Barre-Syndrom, Querschnittlähmungen, Myasthenia gravis) und/oder kognitiven Störungen (z. B. Bewusstseins- und Vigilanzstörungen, schwere Kommunikationsstörungen) versorgt, deren Betreuung bei der Entwöhnung von der Beatmung neben intensivmedizinischer Kompetenz auch neurologische bzw. neurochirurgische und neurorehabilitative Expertise erfordert. In Deutschland wird diese Kompetenz in Zentren der neurologisch-neurochirurgischen Frührehabilitation vorgehalten, und zwar als Krankenhausbehandlung.
Der Leitlinie liegt eine systematische Recherche von Leitliniendatenbanken und Medline zugrunde. Unter Moderation durch die Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Wissenschaftlichen Medizinischen Fachgesellschaften (AWMF) erfolgte die Konsensfindung mittels nominalen Gruppenprozesses und Delphi-Verfahren.
In der vorliegenden Leitlinie der DGNR wird auf die strukturellen und inhaltlichen Besonderheiten der neurologisch-neurochirurgischen Frührehabilitation sowie vorhandene Studien zum Weaning in Frührehabilitationseinrichtungen eingegangen.
Adressaten der Leitlinie sind Neurologen, Neurochirurgen, Anästhesisten, Palliativmediziner, Logopäden, Intensivpflegekräfte, Ergotherapeuten, Physiotherapeuten und Neuropsychologen. Ferner richtet sich diese Leitlinie zur Information an Fachärzte für Physikalische Medizin und Rehabilitation (PMR), Pneumologen, Internisten, Atmungstherapeuten, den Medizinischen Dienst der Krankenkassen (MDK) und des Spitzenverbands Bund der Krankenkassen e. V. (MDS). Das wesentliche Ziel dieser Leitlinie ist es, den aktuellen Wissensstand zum Thema „Prolongiertes Weaning in der neurologisch-neurochirurgischen Frührehabilitation“ zu vermitteln.
The Maule earthquake of 27th February 2010 (M-w = 8.8) affected similar to 500 km of the Nazca-South America plate boundary in south-central Chile producing spectacular crustal deformation. Here, we present a detailed estimate of static coseismic surface offsets as measured by survey and continuous GPS, both in near- and far-field regions. Earthquake slip along the megathrust has been inferred from a Joint inversion of our new data together with published GPS, InSAR, and land-level changes data using Green's functions generated by a spherical finite-element model with realistic subduction zone geometry. The combination of the data sets provided a good resolution, indicating that most of the slip was well resolved. Coseismic slip was concentrated north of the epicenter with up to 16 m of slip, whereas to the south it reached over 10 m within two minor patches. A comparison of coseismic slip with the slip deficit accumulated since the last great earthquake in 1835 suggests that the 2010 event closed a mature seismic gap. Slip deficit distribution shows an apparent local overshoot that highlight cycle-to-cycle variability, which has to be taken into account when anticipating future events from interseismic observations. Rupture propagation was obviously not affected by bathymetric features of the incoming plate. Instead, splay faults in the upper plate seem to have limited rupture propagation in the updip and along-strike directions. Additionally, we found that along-strike gradients in slip are spatially correlated with geometrical inflections of the megathrust. Our study suggests that persistent tectonic features may control strain accumulation and release along subduction megathrusts.
Mass Accuracy Precursor Alignment is a fast and flexible method for comparative proteome analysis that allows the comparison of unprecedented numbers of shotgun proteomics analyses on a personal computer in a matter of hours. We compared 183 LC-MS analyses and more than 2 million MS/MS spectra and could define and separate the proteomic phenotypes of field grown tubers of 12 tetraploid cultivars of the crop plant Solanum tuberosum. Protein isoforms of patatin as well as other major gene families such as lipoxygenase and cysteine protease inhibitor that regulate tuber development were found to be the primary source of variability between the cultivars. This suggests that differentially expressed protein isoforms modulate genotype specific tuber development and the plant phenotype. We properly assigned the measured abundance of tryptic peptides to different protein isoforms that share extensive stretches of primary structure and thus inferred their abundance. Peptides unique to different protein isoforms were used to classify the remaining peptides assigned to the entire subset of isoforms based on a common abundance profile using multivariate statistical procedures. We identified nearly 4000,proteins which we used for quantitative functional annotation making this the most extensive study of the tuber proteome to date.

There are two major limitations to the potential of computational models in ecology for producing general insights: their design is path-dependent, reflecting different underlying questions, assumptions, and data, and there is too little robustness analysis exploring where the model mechanisms explaining certain observations break down. We here argue that both limitations could be overcome if modellers in ecology would more often replicate existing models, try to break the models, and explore modifications. Replication comprises the re-implementation of an existing model and the replication of its results. Breaking models means to identify under what conditions the mechanisms represented in a model can no longer explain observed phenomena. The benefits of replication include less effort being spent to enter the iterative stage of model development and having more time for systematic robustness analysis. A culture of replication would lead to increased credibility, coherence and efficiency of computational modelling and thereby facilitate theory development.
"Forschung meets Business" - diese Kombination hat in den vergangenen Jahren immer wieder zu zahlreichen interessanten und fruchtbaren Diskussionen geführt. Mit dem Symposium "Sicherheit in Service-orientierten Architekturen" führt das Hasso-Plattner-Institut diese Tradition fort und lud alle Interessenten zu einem zweitägigen Symposium nach Potsdam ein, um gemeinsam mit Fachvertretern aus der Forschung und Industrie über die aktuellen Entwicklungen im Bereich Sicherheit von SOA zu diskutieren. Die im Rahmen dieses Symposiums vorgestellten Beiträge fokussieren sich auf die Sicherheitsthemen "Sichere Digitale Identitäten und Identitätsmanagement", "Trust Management", "Modell-getriebene SOA-Sicherheit", "Datenschutz und Privatsphäre", "Sichere Enterprise SOA", und "Sichere IT-Infrastrukturen".
We present a new set of global and local sea‐level projections at example tide gauge locations under the RCP2.6, RCP4.5, and RCP8.5 emissions scenarios. Compared to the CMIP5‐based sea‐level projections presented in IPCC AR5, we introduce a number of methodological innovations, including (i) more comprehensive treatment of uncertainties, (ii) direct traceability between global and local projections, and (iii) exploratory extended projections to 2300 based on emulation of individual CMIP5 models. Combining the projections with observed tide gauge records, we explore the contribution to total variance that arises from sea‐level variability, different emissions scenarios, and model uncertainty. For the period out to 2300 we further breakdown the model uncertainty by sea‐level component and consider the dependence on geographic location, time horizon, and emissions scenario. Our analysis highlights the importance of local variability for sea‐level change in the coming decades and the potential value of annual‐to‐decadal predictions of local sea‐level change. Projections to 2300 show a substantial degree of committed sea‐level rise under all emissions scenarios considered and highlight the reduced future risk associated with RCP2.6 and RCP4.5 compared to RCP8.5. Tide gauge locations can show large ( > 50%) departures from the global average, in some cases even reversing the sign of the change. While uncertainty in projections of the future Antarctic ice dynamic response tends to dominate post‐2100, we see substantial differences in the breakdown of model variance as a function of location, time scale, and emissions scenario.
