Russian pora ‘time’ vs. vremja ‘time’
No full textIn order to shed light on the distribution of the Russian nouns pora and vremja, both of which mean ‘time’, I created a database of examples of both nouns from the Russian National Corpus (RNC, syntactic subcorpus). The database comprises all examples where pora or vremja function as a grammatical subject, a grammatical object, or as an adverbial realized as a bare noun phrase or a preposition phrase. All search results were exported and then merged into one spreadsheet. Irrelevant examples (e.g., where pora means ‘pore in the skin’) and doublets were manually removed. In addition, lists of collocations from the web corpus Araneum Russicum Russicum Maius were created. Finally, for both nouns I created lists of semantic neighbors based on semantic vectors

Background Data for: What is a Chinese word? Lexical constructionalization in Chinese
No full textWord is commonly assumed to be the basic linguistic unit, but its definition has actually been controversial in Chinese. The Chinese language is documented in Chinese characters, with no spaces between words: for Chinese, the inherent and (relatively) stable unit is the Chinese character, but not words. The study looks at the essence of Chinese words, i.e., how Chinese words are formed from Chinese characters.
Experiment Data are from Chinese native speakers' word segmentation test.
Correlation Analysis is the correlation between results from the word segmentation test and the conventionality index of Modern Mandarin.
Besides the conventionality index of Modern Mandarin, the conventionality of frequent two-character combinations in Zuozhuan, Shishuoxinyu, Bianwen, Nogeoldae & Bak Tongsa, and Sanyanerpai are also presented in separate files.
Article abstract: The Chinese language is defined on the basis of Chinese characters, which stabilize monosyllabic root morphemes across the countless varieties. As subsyllabic linguistic forms such as derivational morphology can hardly be represented by Chinese characters, compounding is preferred over derivation in Chinese. Compounds do not have fixed word boundaries. The wordhood of compounds pertains to the level of conventionality in language use, which is a continuum instantiated by synchronic gradience and diachronic gradualness. A perennial archaizing aesthetics further complicates the determination of Chinese words by preserving classical linguistic forms in formal and literary writing, thus making every synchronic stratum heterogeneous by blurring the distinction between historical strata. Therefore, the boundaries of words have always been fluid in native speakers’ mental lexicon.

Proxy based records of past changes in the polar ocean-cryosphere-climate system can provide invaluable constraints on ongoing and future climate change. However, the dominant planktic foraminiferal species in polar regions, Neogloboquadrina pachyderma, exhibits considerable intra- and inter-test heterogeneity in Mg/Ca and potentially other elemental ratios, compromising their utility as palaeothermometers and tracers of other environmental variables such as carbonate chemistry. In particular, N. pachyderma often exhibits a thick “crust” characterised by low Mg/Ca calcite outside its higher Mg/Ca internal “lamellar calcite”. The cause of this heterogeneity is currently uncertain, but it is variably ascribed to environmental change via depth migration or to a “vital effect” related to variations in biomineralisation mechanism/foraminiferal physiology.
To help resolve this issue, we performed large scale culturing experiments of N. pachyderma under controlled environmental conditions and used Laser Ablation ICP-MS to study the intra-shell variability in trace element ratios. We document, for the first time, that in laboratory-grown N. pachyderma the calcite crust has lower Mg/Ca, Na/Ca, and B/Ca than the inner lamellar calcite even when both components are grown in equivalent environmental conditions. This implies that the crust and lamellar calcite of N. pachyderma are deposited via contrasting biomineralisation strategies, not only resulting in distinct geochemical compositions for multiple elements, but also in different sensitivities to changing environmental conditions. Given the crust constitutes a large, but variable percentage of a specimen’s final shell weight, this complicates the application of proxies using this and other similar species. It is therefore recommended that future studies either apply in situ techniques, such as applied here, to analytically separate the crust from lamellar calcite, or target specimens with only one component to avoid the complicating influence of this “vital effect” on environmental reconstruction

Replication Data for: Monitoring bands during the Norwegian national day parade: a case study on urban distributed acoustic sensing
No full textThis data set is a subset of the data used to conduct the research as presented in a manuscript entitled "Monitoring bands during the Norwegian national day parade: a case study on urban distributed acoustic sensing" by Rørstadbotnen et al. in 2025. It contains raw DAS data in time-differentiated phase change unit as recorded by an OptoDAS interrogators through a dark fiber as part of a telecommunication cable in the city center of Oslo, Norway. The trenching condition and burial depth of the fiber is unknown. The raw data was acquired for 11 days but only a subset of three days is made available, the data used in the paper. The data containes 210 s from 2023.05.14 and 2023.05.16 and 1.5 hours from 2023.05.17 Even though the data was resampled in the analysis the raw data is given with the original sampling. This is done to facilitate additional studies using the dataset. The archived versions have a total size of 205 GB. To get access to the entire dataset, contact the corresponding author
Replication Data for: Assessing the role of kelp for small-scale fisheries by combining fishers’ knowledge of spawning locations with modelled kelp distribution
No full text1. Kelp forests are found on rocky shores from polar to temperate coasts, where they provide important ecosystem services to humans. For coastal communities, kelp forests are particularly important as spawning and nursery grounds for small-scale fisheries. Despite their value, surprisingly few studies have assessed how fished species relate to kelp during early life stages. Fishers' knowledge could contribute to filling some of the gaps in our understanding by identifying where many of these species are usually spawning.
2. We aimed to: (i) assess to what extent multiple fished species (N=29) are spawning nearby/in areas where kelp is present, indicating the importance of kelp to small-scale fisheries, and (ii) demonstrate the value of combining the mapping of fishers` knowledge with scientific information to better understand large-scale spatial patterns relevant to fisheries management.
3. Since the 1980s, fishers have identified more than a thousand spawning areas along the Norwegian coastline. Based on this extensive spatial information and the kelp distribution model, we found that the number of spawning areas decreases as the distance from kelp increases, with some species appearing more attached to kelp than others (21% located between 0-100m and 81% located between 0-1000m).
4. Synthesis and applications: The co-occurrence of spawning areas and the presence of tangle kelp (Laminaria hyperborea) indicate that this kelp species might play a significant role for early life stages of multiple fished species. We substantiated our findings by using fishers' knowledge to identify spatial patterns of spawning at a scale that would otherwise be very costly to map using ordinary fish surveys. Our results could inform management efforts to preserve and restore coastal habitats important for safeguarding the viability of the small-scale fisheries over time

Replication Data for: Contextually determined or semantically distinct? The competition between instrumental, long form nominative and short form nominative in Russian predicate adjectives
No full textDataset description
This post provides the data and R scripts for analysis of data on the variation between long form nominative, short form nominative, and instrumental case in Russian predicate adjectives in sentences containing an overt copula verb. We analyze the various factors associated with the choice of form of the adjective.This is the abstract of the article:
Based on data from the syntactic subcorpus of the Russian National Corpus, we undertake a quantitative analysis of the competition between Russian predicate adjectives in the instrumental (e.g., pustym ‘empty’), the long form nominative (e.g., pustoj ‘empty’), and the short form nominative (e.g., pust ‘empty’). It is argued that the choice of adjective form is partly determined by the context. Four (nearly) categorical rules are proposed based on the following contextual factors: the form of the copula verb, the presence/absence of a complement, and the nature of the subject of the sentence. At the same time, a “space of competition” is identified, where all three adjective forms are attested. It is hypothesized that within the space of competition, the three forms are recruited to convey different meanings, and it is argued that our analysis lends support to the traditional idea that the short form nominative is closely related to verbs. Our findings are furthermore compatible with the idea that the short form nominative expresses temporary states, rather than inherent permanent characteristics.</p
