Oceans : The new economic frontier?

Since the Rio+20 gathering in 2012, and under the banner of blue growth, heads of state, corporations, investors and environmental NGOs have been debating the oceans’ role in solving everything from world food security, to provisioning of energy and natural resources, to mitigating the impacts of climate change and ensuring improved medical care. For the ocean and its resources to play this role,

FFPP

The extension of the project “FFPP” inspired by the lighthouses and lighthouse keepers of Porto Pi and Portocolom in Mallorca.

Restoring areas after a radioactive fallout : A multidisciplinary study on decontamination

Land remediation is an important part of restoration measures after a radioactive fallout containing long-lived fission products such as 137Cs. In this multidisciplinary study, we focused on three main issues related to remediation of contaminated urban areas. First, we assessed how much decontamination contributes to reducing resident radiation exposure and how much this reduction depends on the

A Narrative Review of the Association of Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Hypertension : How to Treat Both When They Coexist?

Hypertension (HT) is a worldwide public health issue and an essential risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition characterized by recurrent episodes of apnea and hypopnea as a consequence of partial or complete obstruction of the upper airways due to anatomic and/or functional disturbances. There is mounting evidence of a relationship

Overview and Results From the Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover's First Science Campaign on the Jezero Crater Floor

The Mars 2020 Perseverance rover landed in Jezero crater on 18 February 2021. After a 100-sol period of commissioning and the Ingenuity Helicopter technology demonstration, Perseverance began its first science campaign to explore the enigmatic Jezero crater floor, whose igneous or sedimentary origins have been much debated in the scientific community. This paper describes the campaign plan develop

Exotic cyclic cohomology classes and Lipschitz algebras

We study the noncommutative geometry of algebras of Lipschitz continuous and Hölder continuous functions, where nonclassical and novel differential geometric invariants arise. Indeed, we introduce a new class of Hochschild and cyclic cohomology classes that pair nontrivially with higher algebraic K-theory yet vanish when restricted to the algebra of smooth functions. Said cohomology classes provid

Exposure of Swedish adolescents to elements, persistent organic pollutants (POPs), and rapidly excreted substances – The Riksmaten adolescents 2016-17 national survey

Adolescence is a period of significant physiological changes, and likely a sensitive window to chemical exposure. Few nation-wide population-based studies of chemical body burdens in adolescents have been published. In the national dietary survey Riksmaten Adolescents (RMA) 2016–17, over 13 chemical substance groups, including elements, chlorinated/brominated/fluorinated persistent organic polluta

Complex Linear Response Functions for a Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field Wave Function in a High Performance Computing Environment

We present novel developments for the highly efficient evaluation of complex linear response functions of a multiconfigurational self-consistent field (MCSCF) wave function as implemented in MultiPsi. Specifically, expressions for the direct evaluation of linear response properties at given frequencies using the complex polarization propagator (CPP) approach have been implemented, within both the

In the City Grows a Field

Malmö Konsthall opens one of its largest group exhibitions in later years, featuring Malmö-based artists and the city’s dynamic art scene. The exhibition In the City Grows a Field contains works by 50 artists from different generations showcasing many artistic expressions. This teeming and rich presentation reflects art’s tenacity and integrity and the collective forces that create unique conditio

Effects of Concentration and Type of Lipids on the Droplet Size, Encapsulation, Colour and Viscosity in the Oil-in-Water Emulsions Stabilised by Rapeseed Protein

The objective of this study was to extract the rapeseed protein from by-products and further examine the effect of lab-made rapeseed protein on the droplet size, microstructure, colour, encapsulation and apparent viscosity of emulsions. Rapeseed protein-stabilised emulsions with an increasing gradient of milk fat or rapeseed oil (10, 20, 30, 40 and 50%, v/v) were fabricated using a high shear rate

On The Go

How do I memorise the seen, what I am missing while I am looking at something?Although I am seeing, I miss what I am looking at. So every time I try to look at something again, it disappears every time my eye blinks. I only collected fragments during a day while walking around the whole city. The shops, parks, people and cars, so many of these I passed and nothing was left from my sight. I only re

Absence that fades after a while

Youngjae Lih’s emotional and perception-altering installation Multiplicity to Singularity, then Singularity to Multiplicity explores history as natural duration measured by light frequency, with sound, abstraction and instruments meant to represent nature’s rhythms. It stems from the way in which two industrial producers of color filters, Lee and Rosco, have coded the visible world in shades of li

Sharjah Film Platform

Film screening of 'Print more newspapers' at Sharjah Film Festival, United Arab Emirates. Print more newspapers:This work is inspired by the necessity of linking the unconscious procedures that take place in our mind and the mechanical procedures that are also present in industrial processes. It explores the different stages of a big manufacturing system, which are essential to form a whole and th

Gaia Data Release 3 : Gaia scan-angle-dependent signals and spurious periods

Context. Gaia Data Release 3 (Gaia DR3) time series data may contain spurious signals related to the time-dependent scan angle. Aims. We aim to explain the origin of scan-angle-dependent signals and how they can lead to spurious periods, provide statistics to identify them in the data, and suggest how to deal with them in Gaia DR3 data and in future releases. Methods. Using real Gaia (DR3) data al
