Soil microbial properties of subalpine steppe soils at different grazing intensities in the Chinese Altai Mountains
(2021-01-18)
Long-term provision of ecosystem services by grasslands is threatened by increasing stocking densities. The functions of grassland ecosystems depend on a mutual relationship between aboveground and belowground biota. While the effects of increasing stocking density on plant biomass are well studied, little is known about its impact on soil microbial properties. To fill this knowledge gap a grazing experiment was conducted on a summer pasture in the Chinese Altai Mountains during the summers of 2014 and 2015 using a ...

Does interpersonal behavior of psychotherapy trainees differ in private and professional relationships?
(2015)
• Aim: The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of trainees’ interpersonal behavior on work involvement (WI) and compared their social behavior within professional and private relationships as well as between different psychotherapeutic orientations.
• Methods: The interpersonal scales of the Intrex short-form questionnaire and the Work Involvement Scale (WIS) were used to evaluate two samples of German psychotherapy trainees in psychoanalytic, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral therapy training. Trainees ...

Derivation of Analytical, Closed‐form Formulas for the Calculations of Instantaneous Screw Axes of Arbitrary Rigid 3D Multi‐Body Systems
(2021-01-25)
A method to calculate the parameters for each instantaneous and relative instantaneous screw axis in an arbitrary rigid multi‐body system is presented. At first a kinematic analysis is performed which calculates the displacements of all nodes and the rotation of each body. In the next step the displacements of the nodes and the rotation of the bodies are used to calculate the instantaneous screw axis of each body. With the information on the instantaneous screw axes the instantaneous relative screw axes can be computed ...

Fourier Analysis of DG Schemes for Advection‐Diffusion
(2021-01-25)
This work compares the wave propagation properties of discontinuous Galerkin (DG) schemes for advection‐diffusion problems in particular with respect to the discretization of diffusion terms. Extending previous investigations, the advection discretization now additionally varies between the choices of central or upwind fluxes. The results show that a previously recognized better performance of central schemes for well‐resolved problems only hold for even polynomial degrees and that upwind‐type discretizations also ...

Managing Rangelands Without Herding? Insights From Africa and Beyond
(2020-12-11)
In many parts of the world, the utilization of rangelands is based on the targeted movement of herds within and across often vast territories. Crucial for the success of these livestock operations are decisions on how to flexibly allocate animals to the existing vegetation, both in terms of numbers and concentrations, and in space and time. Research from large scale ranching in the prairies of the Americas, and nomadic or transhumant livestock systems in Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asia, suggests that the ...

Role of Nanoimprint Lithography for Strongly Miniaturized Optical Spectrometers
(2021-01-11)
Optical spectrometers and sensors have gained enormous gimportance in metrology and information technology, frequently involving the question of size, resolution, sensitivity, spectral range, efficiency, reliability, and cost. Nanomaterials and nanotechnological fabrication technologies have huge potential to enable an optimization between these demands, which in some cases are counteracting each other. This paper focuses on the visible and near infrared spectral range and on five types of optical sensors (optical ...

Measuring the Time Discretization Error in Linear Elasticity
(2021-01-25)
The present paper considers the spread of longitudinal waves in an elastic rod. On the one hand an analytical solution is presented, on the other hand a spatially and temporally discretized continuum formulation of this problem is treated. With these approaches at hand the appearing time discretization error is analyzed using various quantities.

Experimental investigations of viscoelastic and ferroelectric heating in PZT–5H
(2021-01-25)
This contribution focuses on the separation of two effects causing a temperature change in experiments with electrically loaded ferroelectrics. These materials are often subjected to cyclic loading, where viscoelasticity prevails at lower electric fields, whereas dissipative heating by domain switching governs the heating above the coercive field. Different frequencies and load amplitudes are investigated experimentally.

Spatio-temporal resolution studies on a highly compact ultrafast electron diffractometer
(2015)
Time-resolved diffraction with femtosecond electron pulses has become a promising technique to directly provide insights into photo induced primary dynamics at the atomic level in molecules and solids. Ultrashort pulse duration as well as extensive spatial coherence are desired, however, space charge effects complicate the bunching of multiple electrons in a single pulse.Weexperimentally investigate the interplay between spatial and temporal aspects of resolution limits in ultrafast electron diffraction (UED) on our ...

Detecting ultrafast interatomic electronic processes in media by fluorescence
(In: New journal of physics. - London : IOP, 2014, 16, 102002, 1-9, 2014)
Interatomic coulombic decay (ICD), a radiationless transition in weakly bonded systems, such as solutes or van der Waals bound aggregates, is an effective source for electrons of low kinetic energy. So far, the ICD processes could only be probed in ultra-high vacuum by using electron and/or ion spectroscopy. Here we show that resonant ICD processes can also be detected by measuring the subsequently emitted characteristic fluorescence radiation, which makes their study in dense media possible.
