Type: Mallorca: Balearic Islands, Es Rafal d’Ariant, 11.ix.2003, altitude 90 m. Legit. Cardona, Franquesa, Gil et Llorens (Holotype: herb. Llorens-Gil; isotype: BC 862019 s.n.). Distribution and habitat: North-west Mallorca mountain range, between 80 and 120 m altitude. Colonizing humid and shadowy places, with little human disturbance but that are subjected to grazing (usually by sheep and goats). It occurs in clay-rich or sandy soils, usually gravelly, developed on out-crop areas of the Triassic (Keuper) or Liassic geological periods. It is an element of the cormophyte perennial pastures of a variable nitrophilous character, rich in Balearic or Tirrenic endemic species, such as Erodium reichardii, Sibthorpia africana, Scutellaria balearica, Carex rorulenta, Micromeria filiformis, Aetheorhiza bulbosa ssp. willkommii, Aristolochia bianorii, and Delphinium pictum. Conservation status: At present, according to the IUCN Species Survival Commission (2001) categories this species should be regarded as – vulnerable VU (D 1+2). AFFINITIES The classification and the relationships within the species of Oxalis section Corniculatae present several difficulties and are inadequately known (Conn & Richards, 1994; Turner, 1994). Eiten (1955, 1963), Navas (1976), Lourteig (1979), and Conn & Richards (1994) provide considerable information about the section. According to these authors, characteristics which provide the most taxonomic information are: growth type; type of indumenta of branches and fruits; and shape and size of capsule and seeds. Using such attributes, O. ferae shows important differences compared to the other species of the section (Table 1). Oxalis ferae is clearly different from O. corniculata (sensu stricto), O. exilis and O. stricta by its caespitose and stoloniferous habit, by being glabrescent (pubescent in O. corniculata and O. stricta), in having uniflorous inflorescences (1–8-flowered in O. corniculata; 1–5-flowered in O. stricta), and by having larger corollas, and especially by its smaller obloid or obloidcylindrical fruits (1.5–2.0 times as long as wide in O. ferae and 5 times as long as wide in O. corniculata) that are covered by short, patent hairs (not long, appressed and retrorse as in O. corniculata). There are also major morphological similarities between O. ferae and O. parvifolia DC. (= O. filiformis Kunth; O. gyrorrhiza Bertero) of South America, but they differ especially in the pilosity of the calyx and leaves, the size of the flowers (bigger in O. parviflora) and more particularly in the morphology and size of the fruits (cylindric-lanceolate and 3–4 times longer than wide in O. parviflora).Published as part of LLORENS, L., GIL, L., CARDONA, C., FRANQUESA, M. & BOI, M., 2005, A new species of Oxalis section Corniculatae (Oxalidaceae) from the Balearic islands, pp. 489-493 in Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society 148 (4) on pages 489-493, DOI: 10.1111/j.1095-8339.2005.00408.x, http://zenodo.org/record/581662
A compact acoustic calibrator for ultra-high energy neutrino detection
No full textWith the aim to optimize and test the method of acoustic detection of ultra-high energy neutrinos in underwater telescopes a compact acoustic transmitter array has been developed. The acoustic parametric effect is used to reproduce the acoustic signature of an ultra-high-energy neutrino interaction. Different R&D studies are presented in order to show the viability of the parametric sources technique to deal with the difficulties of the acoustic signal generation: a very directive transient bipolar signal with 'pancake' directivity. The design, construction and characterization of the prototype are described, including simulation of the propagation of an experimental signal, measured in a pool, over a distance of 1 km. Following these studies, next steps will be testing the device in situ, in underwater neutrino telescope, or from a vessel in a sea campaign. (c) 2012 Elsevier B.V.

The sound emission board of the KM3NeT acousticpositioning system
No full text[EN] We describe the sound emission board proposed for installation in the acoustic positioning system of the future KM3NeT underwater neutrino telescope. The KM3NeT European consortium aims to build a multi-cubic kilometre underwater neutrino telescope in the deep Mediterranean Sea. In this kind of telescope the mechanical structures holding the optical sensors, which detect the Cherenkov radiation produced by muons emanating from neutrino interactions, are not completely rigid and can move up to dozens of meters in undersea currents. Knowledge of the position of the optical sensors to an accuracy of about 10 cm is needed for adequate muon track reconstruction. A positioning system based on the acoustic triangulation of sound transit time differences between fixed seabed emitters and receiving hydrophones attached to the kilometre-scale vertical flexible structures carrying the optical sensors is being developed. In this paper, we describe the sound emission board developed in the framework of KM3NeT project, which is totally adapted to the chosen FFR SX30 ultrasonic transducer and fulfils the requirements imposed by the collaboration in terms of cost, high reliability, low power consumption, high acoustic emission power for short signals, low intrinsic noise and capacity to use arbitrary signals in emission mode.This work was supported by the European Commission through the KM3NeT Design Study (FP6, contract no.

Acoustic Transmitters for Underwater Neutrino Telescopes
No full textIn this paper acoustic transmitters that were developed for use in underwater neutrino telescopes are presented. Firstly, an acoustic transceiver has been developed as part of the acoustic positioning system of neutrino telescopes. These infrastructures are not completely rigid and require a positioning system in order to monitor the position of the optical sensors which move due to sea currents. To guarantee a reliable and versatile system, the transceiver has the requirements of reduced cost, low power consumption, high pressure withstanding (up to 500 bars), high intensity for emission, low intrinsic noise, arbitrary signals for emission and the capacity of acquiring and processing received signals. Secondly, a compact acoustic transmitter array has been developed for the calibration of acoustic neutrino detection systems. The array is able to mimic the signature of ultra-high-energy neutrino interaction in emission directivity and signal shape. The technique of parametric acoustic sources has been used to achieve the proposed aim. The developed compact array has practical features such as easy manageability and operation. The prototype designs and the results of different tests are described. The techniques applied for these two acoustic systems are so powerful and versatile that may be of interest in other marine applications using acoustic transmitters. © 2012 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.This work has been supported by the Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovacion (Spanish Government), project references FPA2009-13983-C02-02, ACI2009-1067, AIC10-D-00583, Consolider-Ingenio Multidark (CSD2009-00064).

Acoustic signal detection through the cross-correlation method in experiments with different signal to noise ratio and reverberation conditions
No full text[EN] The study and application of signal detection techniques based on
cross-correlation method for acoustic transient signals in noisy and reverberant
environments are presented. These techniques are shown to provide high signal
to noise ratio, good signal discernment from very close echoes and accurate
detection of signal arrival time. The proposed methodology has been tested on
different signal to noise ratio and reverberation conditions using real data collected
in several experiences related to acoustic systems in astroparticle detectors.
This work focuses on the acoustic detection applied to tasks of positioning
in underwater structures and calibration such those as ANTARES and KM3NeT
deep-sea neutrino telescopes, as well as, in particle detection through acoustic
events for the COUPP/PICO detectors. Moreover, a method for obtaining the
real amplitude of the signal in time (voltage) by using cross correlation has been
developed and tested and is described in this work.This work has been supported by the Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad (Spanish Government), project ref. FPA2012-37528-C02-02 and Multidark

The Status of Public Sector Pay Equity for Women of Color in the United States
No full textResearch by Reese and Warner and Llorens, Wenger, and Kellough assesses the relative pay of women in the United States. However, research on the relative pay of women of color remains scant. What kinds of factors predict relative pay for women of color, and are they the same as for White women? The author utilizes ordinary least squares (OLS) regression on an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) panel data set on public sector employment by state to analyze the pay of Black, Hispanic, Asian, and American Indian women relative to men for 2005-2013. The author reaffirms that whether a woman lives in a state that has implemented a major gender pay equity measure is a significant factor determining her relative pay. Furthermore, the intersectional nature of public sector pay for women of color is numerically verified. Women fare better in states where they are descriptively represented in terms of gender and race/ethnic group.</jats:p
Alternative splicing controls pan-neuronal homeobox gene expression
No full textThe pan-neuronally expressed and phylogenetically conserved CUT homeobox gene ceh-44/CUX orchestrates pan-neuronal gene expression throughout the nervous system of Caenorhabditis elegans. As in many other species, including humans, ceh-44/CUX is encoded by a complex locus that also codes for a Golgi-localized protein, called CASP (Cux1 alternatively spliced product) in humans and CONE-1 ("CASP of nematodes") in C. elegans How gene expression from this complex locus is controlled-and, in C. elegans, directed to all cells of the nervous system-has not been investigated. We show here that pan-neuronal expression of CEH-44/CUX is controlled by a pan-neuronal RNA splicing factor, UNC-75, the C. elegans homolog of vertebrate CELF proteins. During embryogenesis, the cone-1&ceh-44 locus exclusively produces the Golgi-localized CONE-1/CASP protein in all tissues, but upon the onset of postmitotic terminal differentiation of neurons, UNC-75/CELF induces the production of the alternative CEH-44/CUX CUT homeobox gene-encoding transcript exclusively in the nervous system. Hence, UNC-75/CELF-mediated alternative splicing not only directs pan-neuronal gene expression but also excludes a phylogenetically deeply conserved golgin from the nervous system, paralleling surprising spatial specificities of another golgin that we describe here as well. Our findings provide novel insights into how all cells in a nervous system acquire pan-neuronal identity features and reveal unanticipated cellular specificities in Golgi apparatus composition.We thank Chi Chen for generating transgenic strains; John Calarco for sharing unpublished data; Barth Grant for shar ing the aman-2 reporter (RT2745 strain); Alberto Stolfi for discussion; HaoSheng Sun, Nuria Flames, and members of the Hobert laboratory and Leyva-Díaz laboratory for com menting on the manuscript; WormBase (Sternberg et al. 2024) and Caenorhabditis Genetics Center (funded by the National Institutes of Health Office of Research Infrastruc ture Programs, P40 OD010440) for providing resources and reagents.

Flat tax reforms in the U.S.: A boon for the income poor
No full textIn this article we quantify the aggregate, distributional and welfare consequences of
two revenue neutral flat-tax reforms using a model economy that replicates the U.S.
distributions of earnings, income and wealth in very much detail. We find that the less
progressive reform brings about a 2.4 percent increase in steady-state output and a
more unequal distribution of after-tax income. In contrast, the more progressive reform brings about a -2.6 percent reduction in steady-state output and a distribution of aftertax income that is more egalitarian. We also find that in the less progressive flat-tax economy aggregate welfare falls by -0.17 percent of consumption, and in the more
progressive flat-tax economy it increases by 0.45 percent of consumption. In both flattax
reforms the income poor pay less income taxes and obtain sizeable welfare gains
