    We must combine conservation of nature with benefits to society. Interview by Gaby Allheilig with Andreas Heinimann on IPBES' Global Assessment Report on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services

    On 6 May 2019, the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) presented its report on the state of biodiversity and ecosystem services worldwide. The first such assessment since 2005, it concludes that biodiversity and ecosystem loss has reached the point where it threatens human well-being. The researchers involved recommend several urgent measures to political decision-makers. Andreas Heinimann of CDE was the one Swiss scientist who worked as a lead author on a chapter of the report

    Family Virtues and Social Critique: Andreas Latzko’s Anti-War Prose (1917-1918)

    No full text
    Between 1917 and 1918, the Austro-Hungarian author Andreas Latzko (1876-1943) wrote three separate publications against the Great War: Menschen im Krieg (1917), Friedensgericht (1918), and Der letzte Mann (published 1919). Literary historians tend to bypass these works, and the few who note them chiefly focus on the best-selling novella cycle Menschen im Krieg (1917). It is usually presented as an example of expressionist political prose, or as a mixture of social satire and aesthetic shock-tactics that chiefly remains indebted to realist traditions, albeit with occasional incursions into expressionistic styles..

    Short laws for finite groups and residual finiteness growth

    We prove that for every n ∈ N n \in \mathbb {N} and δ &gt; 0 \delta &gt;0 there exists a word w n ∈ F 2 w_n \in F_2 of length O ( n 2 / 3 log ⁡ ( n ) 3 + δ ) O(n^{2/3} \log (n)^{3+\delta }) which is a law for every finite group of order at most n n . This improves upon the main result of Andreas Thom [Israel J. Math. 219 (2017), pp. 469–478] by the second named author. As an application we prove a new lower bound on the residual finiteness growth of non-abelian free groups. </p

    Value quantification

    No full text
    This chapter explores the concept and practice of value quantification, emphasizing its crucial role in effectively communicating product offerings in industrial markets. Rather than relying solely on product characteristics, successful sales strategies involve translating unique selling points into quantifiable customer-specific economic value. The chapter synthesizes existing marketing and pricing literature, presenting a comprehensive model that categorizes benefits and sacrifices into quantitative and qualitative dimensions relevant to both B2B and B2C contexts. The author delineates a systematic approach for quantifying customer value, highlighting practical methodologies such as economic value analysis and conjoint analysis. Furthermore, the chapter underscores the managerial implications of value quantification, including enhanced pricing strategies, improved negotiation positions, reduced discounting, and performance-based pricing opportunities. Through detailed frameworks and real-world examples, the chapter provides actionable insights for effectively leveraging quantified value to gain competitive advantage and drive customer purchasing decisions

    Cinnabar, arsenian pyrite and thallium-enrichment in active shallow submarine hydrothermal vents at Paleochori Bay, Milos Island, Greece

    We herein report the discovery of active cinnabar-depositing hydrothermal vents in a submarine setting at Paleochori Bay, within the offshore southeastern extension of the Milos Island Geothermal Field, South Aegean Active Volcanic Arc. Active, low temperature (up to 115 &#xe;C) hydrothermal venting through volcaniclastic material has led to a varied assemblage of sulfide and alteration mineral phases in an area of approximately 1 km2. Our samples recovered from Paleochori Bay are hydrothermal edifices composed of volcaniclastic detrital material cemented by pyrite, or pure sulfide (mainly massive pyrite) mounts. Besides pyrite and minor marcasite, the hydrothermal minerals include cinnabar, amorphous silica, hydrous ferric oxides, carbonates (aragonite and calcite), alunite-jarosite solid solution and Sr-rich barite. Among others, growth textures, sieve-textured pyrite associated with barite, alunite-jarosite solid solution and hydrous ferric oxides rims colloform-banded pyrite layers. Overgrowths of arsenian pyrite layers (up to 3.2 wt. % As and/or up to 1.1 wt. % Mn) onto As-free pyrite indicate fluctuation in As content of the hydrothermal fluid. Mercury, in the form of cinnabar, occurs in up to 5 &#x16;m grains within arsenian pyrite layers, usually forming distinct cinnabar-enriched micro-layers. Hydrothermal Sr-rich barite (barite-celestine solid solution), pseudocubic alunite-jarosite solid solution and Mnand Sr-enriched carbonates occur in various amounts and closely associated with pyrite and/or hydrous ferric oxides. Thallium-bearing sulfides and/or sulfosalts were not detected during our study; however, hydrous ferric oxides show thallium content of up to 0.5 wt. % Tl. The following scenarios may have played a role in pyrite precipitation at Paleochori: (a) H2S originally dissolved in the deep fluid but separated upon boiling could have reacted with oxygenated seawater under production of sulphuric acid, thus causing leaching and dissolution of primary iron-rich grains from the volcaniclastic components of the sediments and resulting in precipitation of pyrite; (b) the iron may also have been derived by the near-neutral reduced hydrothermal brines and precipitate metal sulfides as a result of cooling, mixing with seawaters; the necessary iron content to form sulfides is mostly derived from primary iron-rich components of the basement; (c) biological activity may have resulted in pyrite deposition (e.g. sulfur is provided by a biogenic reduction of marine sulphate). The mineralogy of hydrothermal precipitates considered in the present study resemble hydrothermal products from other shallow water venting areas elsewhere: Lihir and Ambitle Islands, Papua New Guinea, Kraternaya Bight, Kuriles, Russia, Punta Mita and Bahía Concepción, Mexico and Punta Banda at Baja California. The Paleochori vents contain the first documented occurrence of cinnabar on the sea floor in the Aegean area and provide an important link between offshore hydrothermal activity and the mercury-depositing mineralizing system on Milos Island. An interplay between bacterial activity, pH, Eh, temperature, precipitation rate and iron concentration resulted in precipitation of As-pyrite with interlayered cinnabar, hydrous ferric oxides enriched in thallium, alunite-jarosite solid solution and carbonates
