Building and Defining Behavioral Economics
No full textContains fulltext :
95156.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access)George Loewenstein, a prominent behavioral economist, recalls thatIn 1994, when Thaler, Camerer, Rabin, Prelec and I spent the year at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, we had a meeting to make a kind of final decision about what to call what we were doing. Remarkably, at that time, the name behavioral economics was not yet well established. I actually advocated “psychological economics,” and Thaler was strong on behavioral economics. I'm kind of glad that he prevailed; I think it's a better, catchier, label, although it creates confusion due to association with Behaviorism. (G. Loewenstein, personal email to author, June 16, 2008

Nonnus barnesae is one of the most distinctive North and Central American Nonnus species. While there are quite a few species with a predominately brownish-red body coloration, such as N. antennatus Cresson (Fig. 9), none of them have the barnesae pattern of black areas on the mesosoma (Figs. 3–5). There is some minor variation in color pattern. In females: 1) the propleuron can have the lateral margins brownish-red; 2) the mesothoracic venter in one specimen has paired elongate brownish-red ovoids; 3) the paired dark ovoids on the propodeum are occasionally absent. In males, the amount of the brownish-red on the first four metasomal segments is variable, ranging from the condition in the male description to completely brownish-red (this in only one specimen). The range of barnesae is mostly concurrent with spurius: ranging from the Isthmus of Tehuantepec north through the Sierra Madre Orientale to Arizona (Fig. 17). The label for the Vista Hermosa specimen reads as follows: Vista Hermosa, Oax., Mex./96.5 Km. SW of Tuxtepec/[date] 1450 m /H. & M. Townes. This led to frustration in trying to find the locality, until the Townes’ collecting notes were consulted. The locality was originally recorded by them as near kilometer marker 96 (the Townes’ estimated the fractional value) on the road from Valle Nacional to Oaxaca (city). It is not 96.5 linear kilometers southwest of Tuxtepec. The latitude and longtitude for Vista Hermosa are given above under “Material”. Etymology. This species is named after Diana Barnes, in recognition of her many years of collaboration with the junior author on the systematics of Ichneumonidae.Published as part of Wahl, David B. & Bennett, Andrew M.

The chemistry of iron in hydrothermal plumes
No full textThis thesis investigates the role of submarine hydrothermal vents in the global marine Febudget. While debate continues over the sources of dissolved Fe to the global deep-oceandissolved Fe budget, it had been presumed, until recently, that all the Fe emitted fromhydrothermal vents precipitates and sinks to the seafloor close to the vent source.However, in the open ocean, dissolved Fe exists at concentrations greater than thepredicted solubility because of the presence of organically complexed Fe. If similarcomplexes were formed in the hydrothermal systems then there would be the potential fordissolved Fe export via hydrothermal plumes to the deep-ocean.To investigate the fate of hydrothemally sourced Fe, samples were collected from hightemperaturehydrothermal vent-field plumes at 9°N on the East Pacific Rise and at 5°S onthe Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The samples from the East Pacific Rise were analysed for Fe anddissolved and particulate organic carbon. Although hydrothermal systems are presumed tobe inorganically dominated, elevated concentrations of dissolved organic carbon comparedto background seawater were detected in near-field buoyant plumes and the concentrationof organic carbon appeared to relate to the total Fe concentration, consistent with thepresence of some organic-Fe interaction.Non-buoyant plume samples from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge were analysed for totaldissolvable and dissolved Fe and Mn as well as speciation studies on a subset of thedissolved Fe samples using Competitive Ligand Exchange – Cathodic StrippingVoltammetry. The dissolved Fe concentrations in the dispersing plume were higher thanpredicted from dissolved Fe(II) oxidation rates alone. Further investigation into thespeciation of the dissolved Fe revealed the presence of stable Fe-ligand complexes, similarto those detected in the open ocean, but with higher concentrations. If these Fe-ligandcomplexes were representative of all hydrothermal systems, submarine venting couldpotentially provide between 11 to 22% of the global deep-ocean dissolved Fe budget.Buoyant plume samples from the same vent site were analysed for total dissolvable anddissolved Fe and Mn as well as particulate Fe, Mn, P, V, Cu, Zn and the rare earthelements. Fe isotopes were also analysed in the particulate fraction, as a potential tool fortracing the biogeochemical cycle of Fe in the ocean. The forms of particulate Fe wereelucidated using the particulate trace element data, enabling the isotope fractionationcaused by Fe sulfide precipitation to be determined. A diagnostic isotope signature for apotential stabilised dissolved Fe fraction was predicted to be isotopically heavier than theoriginal vent fluid, potentially enabling Fe inputs from hydrothermal vents to be tracedthroughout the ocean
The IPHAS catalogue of H alpha emission-line sources in the northern Galactic plane
No full textWe present a catalogue of point-source H alpha emission-line objects selected from the INT/WFC Photometric Ha Survey (IPHAS) of the northern Galactic plane. The catalogue covers the magnitude range 13 <= r' <= 19.5 and includes Northern hemisphere sources in the Galactic latitude range -5 degrees < b < 5 degrees. It is derived from similar to 1500 deg(2) worth of imaging data, which represents 80 per cent of the final IPHAS survey area. The electronic version of the catalogue will be updated once the full survey data become available. In total, the present catalogue contains 4853 point sources that exhibit strong photometric evidence for Ha emission. We have so far analysed spectra for similar to 300 of these sources, confirming more than 95 per cent of them as genuine emission-line stars. A wide range of stellar populations are represented in the catalogue, including early-type emission-line stars, active late-type stars, interacting binaries, young stellar objects and compact nebulae.
The spatial distribution of catalogue objects shows overdensities near sites of recent or current star formation, as well as possible evidence for the warp of the Galactic plane. Photometrically, the incidence of Ha emission is bimodally distributed in (r' - i'). The blue peak is made up mostly of early-type emission-line stars, whereas the red peak may signal an increasing contribution from other objects, such as young/active low-mass stars. We have cross-matched our H alpha-excess catalogue against the emission-line star catalogue of Kohoutek & Wehmeyer, as well as against sources in SIMBAD. We find that fewer than 10 per cent of our sources can be matched to known objects of any type. Thus IPHAS is uncovering an order of magnitude more faint (r' > 13) emission-line objects than were previously known in the Milky Way
