GECCO3 Ocean Synthesis (1˚x1˚ grid 41)
No full textThe GECCO3 ocean synthesis is the German contribution of the Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean project (ECCO, see references) and is the new version of the GECCO2 synthesis already available at ICDC. The synthesis also uses the adjoint method to adjust the initial temperature and salinity in 1948 together with the air temperature, humidity, precipitation, shortwave radiation, and zonal and meridional wind every 10 days to bring the model into consistency with the data, which derive from the EN4.2.1 data base AVISO along track SLA, DTU10 mean sea surface minus GOCO5s geoid to yield the mean dynamic topography, HadISST SST, and the WOA18 climatology. The global model is based on the MITgcm model, has 40 levels, and uses the horizontal and vertical grid of the ocean component of MPI-ESM in the MR/HR configuration, which is with nominally 0.4° resolution eddy-permitting. The bathymetry is also adopted from this configuration. The background atmospheric state is taken from the 6 hourly NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis 1.
GECCO3 and GECCO3S6m
The GECCO3 synthesis covers the period 1948-2018 and, unlike GECCO2, is optimized over only one assimilation window. The state after 41 iterations is available. There are two versions of the synthesis, which differ in the time constant of the relaxation of the surface salinity. For the present version 41 a time constant of 60 days was used. Globally and averaged over all data types, there is a slight advantage for the stronger relaxation. However, an evaluation with ESA-CCI surface salinity data for the years 2011-2018 showed a somewhat more realistic variability with less relaxation. In other variables that were examined, mainly differences between the two products on multi-decade time scales were found. The difference between the products gives an impression of the robustness of the estimate, but it must be taken into account that only one aspect was changed. Overall, the GECCO3S6m version (DOI:10.25592/uhhfdm.17973) can be recommended.

Data quality
Variational methods fit the trajectory best during the middle section of the assimilation period. During the first few years spin-up effects are noticeable such that the variability during this period should be considered with care. Changes in the densities and type of assimilated data leave signatures in the product, in particular noticeable in year 1992 and at the beginning of the 2000s during the advent of altimeter and Argo data.

Corpus Description
The INEL Nganasan corpus has been created within the long-term INEL project ("Grammatical Descriptions, Corpora and Language Technology for Indigenous Northern Eurasian Languages"), 2016–2033. The corpus is largely based on the Nganasan Spoken Language Corpus, which has been adapted to the INEL standards and supplemented with new texts. The corpus makes possible typologically oriented corpus-based research on Nganasan and expands the documentation of the lesser described indigenous languages of Northern Eurasia.
The INEL Nganasan corpus consists of two parts. The glossed (searchable) part of the corpus includes texts provided with source media files (whenever available) and annotated transcripts. The archival part of the corpus contains non-glossed texts, represented either by audio recordings (optionally – with preliminary transcriptions) or scanned pages of the manuscripts or publications.
The corpus includes texts recorded between 1933–2019 in Nganasan. The sources of the corpus are:
Audio recordings done by Maria Brykina, Valentin Gusev, Sándor Szeverényi and Beáta Wagner-Nagy.
Legacy audio recordings done by A. Aksyonova, Svetlana S. Aksyonova, Josefina Budzisch, Michael Daniel, Oksana E. Dobzhanskaya, Eugene Helimski, Nadezhda T. Kosterkina, Jean-Luc Lambert, Marina D. Lyublinskaya, N. A. Popov, Florian Sobanski, Eugénie Stapert, Larisa Y. Turdagina, Zsuzsa Várnai, Peter Voliak, Tatjana Zhdanova and possibly other people.

Texts published by Ekaterina P. Boldt, I. E. Machkinis, Tibor Mikola, Georgij N. Prokofiev and A. K. Stolyarova.
Corpus size
The glossed (searchable) part of the corpus contains 236 texts, 34,872 sentences and 221,747 tokens. The total duration of the audio recordings is 49 hours 53 minutes.
The archival part of the corpus contains 98 hours of audio material (210 texts) and 30 manuscripts.
Funding
The INEL Nganasan corpus has been produced in the context of the joint research funding of the German Federal Government and Federal States in the Academies’ Programme, with funding from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg. The Academies’ Programme is coordinated by the Union of the German Academies of Sciences and Humanities.
The Nganasan Spoken Language Corpus, which was integrated into the INEL Nganasan corpus, was created as part of the project Corpus based grammatical studies on Nganasan at the Institute of Finno-Ugric/Uralic Studies of Universität Hamburg. The project was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft under grant number WA3153/2-1 between 2014 and 2017.

Perspectives on Humanities‑Centered AI and Formal & Cognitive Reasoning Workshop 2025,(CHAI 2025 & FCR 2025)
No full textUnder the joint heading Perspectives on Humanities-Centered AI (CHAI 2025) and Formal & Cognitive Reasoning (FCR-2025), the two workshops CHAI and FCR were organised together for the first time. The joint event brought into dialogue two complementary perspectives on artificial intelligence (AI). On the one hand, CHAI explored how AI, as the science of agents acting in the world, can support research in the Humanities by enhancing efficiency and effectiveness. With a Humanities-centred approach, AI methods can be tailored to the specific challenges of interpreting cultural traditions, working with written artefacts, and applying techniques such as text mining and linguistic analysis in ways that optimize human–machine interaction. On the other hand, FCR addressed issues of reasoning under uncertainty and change, emphasizing the need for non-classical systems to capture both real-life Large Language Model (LLM)-based applications and the characteristics of human reasoning. Topics included incomplete knowledge, inconsistent beliefs, and diverse reasoning mechanisms such as analogical and defeasible reasoning, as well as their integration with machine learning approaches.
This volume contains the accepted contributions and corresponding presentations from the joint workshop.

Dynamiken der Selbstjustiz: Muslimfeindlichkeit, rechte Narrative und Straflust als Treiber von Vigilantismus
No full textAls Vigilantismus wird eine stark ausgeprägte Einstellung bezeichnet, die u.a. die Bereitschaft zu Selbstjustiz und das nachdrückliche Interesse an Kontrolle und Bestrafung bestimmter Gruppen beinhaltet. Im Zusammenhang mit öffentlichkeitswirksam dargestellten sicherheitsrelevanten Vorkommnissen sind immer wieder Äußerungen in diese Richtung zu verzeichnen.
Vigilantismus bezieht sich häufig auf Migrant*innen bzw. Angehörige von Fremdgruppen, darunter insbesondere männliche Muslime, als vermeintliche Bedrohung der öffentlichen Sicherheit.
Die Wahrnehmung von Migrant*innen als kriminell bzw. als Kriminalitätsrisiko hängt nach bislang verfügbaren Forschungsbefunden mit allgemeiner Kriminalitätsfurcht sowie Punitivität zusammen. Sie ist ferner im Falle politisch rechter Einstellungen sowie bei Vorliegen muslimfeindlicher Vorurteile häufiger zu finden.
Diese Zusammenhänge wurden anhand von Daten aus einer standardisierten Befragung einer Stichprobe der erwachsenen Wohnbevölkerung Deutschlands empirisch überprüft.
Die Erhebungen wurden im Rahmen eines studentischen Forschungsprojektes im Sommer 2023 konzipiert und durchgeführt. Mehr als 2.000 Personen nahmen an dieser Studie teil.
Zur Messung vigilanter Einstellungen wurde eine neue Skala entwickelt, die drei Aussagen mit Bezug zu Selbstjustiz, Rache und Sicherheitsbedürfnis enthält.
Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass 69% der Befragten glauben, die Polizei gehe nicht hart genug gegen Straftäter vor. Vigilante Einstellungen vertreten 21% bis 43% der Befragten. Die Zustimmung zu den Aussagen liegt bei Personen, die die AfD präferieren, mit 72% bis 87% deutlich darüber.
Multivariate Analysen machen darüber hinaus deutlich, dass AfD-Präferenz, Muslimfeindlichkeit, Punitivität und Kriminalitätsfurcht vigilante Einstellungen signifikant erhöhen.
Die Ergebnisse werden vor dem Hintergrund der Befürwortung von Gewalt gegen Migrant*innen sowie Abschiebeforderungen seitens des konservativen und rechten politischen Spektrums diskutiert
