Die Oekonomische Gesellschaft Bern als Kontaktzone im europäischen Austausch agrarisch-ökonomischen Wissens
No full textLa société économique de Berne est considérée comme une zone de contact à portée européenne des Lumières économiques. C´est dans cette perspective que son organe de publication paraissant dans deux langues, son premier catalogue de bibliothèque, tout comme les membres d´honneur qui y sont nommés feront
l´objet d´une étude. Cette analyse vise aussi bien aux aspects fonctionnels du transfert des savoirs et de leur organisation, qu´à la culture de réputation et de reconnaissance. Seule l´association de ces deux aspects permet de constituer le caractère international de la société bernoiseDie Oekonomische Gesellschaft Bern wird als europäische Kontaktzone der Ökonomischen Aufklärung betrachtet. In dieser Perspektive werden ihr zweisprachig erscheinendes Publikationsorgan, ihr erster Bibliothekskatalog sowie die ernannten Ehrenmitglieder untersucht. Die Analyse zielt sowohl auf die funktionalen Aspekte des Wissenstransfers und der Wissensorganisation als auch auf die Reputations- und Anerkennungskultur. Erst beides zusammen konstituiert den internationalen Charakter der Berner Sozietä
Why radiative forcing might fail as a predictor of climate change
No full textRadiative forcing has been widely used as a
metric of climate change, i.e. as a measure by which
various contributors to a net surface temperature change
can be quantitatively compared. The extent to which this
concept is valid for spatially inhomogeneous perturbations
to the climate system is tested. A series of climate
model simulations involving ozone changes of different
spatial structure reveals that the climate sensitivity
parameter k is highly variable: for an ozone increase in
the northern hemisphere lower stratosphere, it is more
than twice as large as for a homogeneous CO2 perturbation.
A global ozone perturbation in the upper troposphere,
however, causes a significantly smaller surface
temperature response than CO2. The variability of the
climate sensitivity parameter is shown to be mostly due
to the varying strength of the stratospheric water vapour
feedback. The variability of the sea-ice albedo feedback
modifies climate sensitivity of perturbations with the
same vertical structure but a different horizontal structure.
This feedback is also the origin of the comparatively
larger climate sensitivity to perturbations
restricted to the northern hemisphere extratropics. As
cloud feedback does not operate independently from the
other feedbacks, quantifying its effect is rather difficult.
However, its effect on the variability of k for horizontally
and vertically inhomogeneous perturbations within
one model framework seems to be comparatively small

Excitatory transmission from the amygdala to nucleus accumbens facilitates reward seeking
No full textInteractions between the basolateral amygdala (BLA) and nucleus accumbens (NAc) are involved in a number of reward-processing and addictive behaviours, but our understanding of the precise role of each of these brain areas has been limited by the inability to manipulate pathways selectively during behaviour. Stuber et al. use optogenetic technologies, in which light selectively activates or inhibits genetically-defined neuronal subpopulations, to reveal an unexpected role for the BLA a brain region usually associated with aversive behaviours. The BLA is shown to be important for processing both positive and negative effects, but glutamatergic pathways between the BLA and NAc are specifically associated with reward-seeking behaviours
