    Data sets relate to the surveys and grazer-exclusion experiments performed by Kriegisch, Reeves, Johnson, Ling in Port Phillip Bay Victoria, Australia. The manuscript that describes the data sets is entitled:"Sea urchin control of macroalgal communities across a productivity gradient"Kriegisch, N., Reeves, S., Johnson, C., Ling, S. D.*Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, 20 Castray Esplanade, Battery Point, Tasmania 7004, Australia*Corresponding author: [email protected]: +61 3 6226 6379 Data sets are:1.

"Ulva_production_estimates_by_zone_PPB.xlsx"5. "Procedural_control_octocoral_graer-exclusion_experiment_PPB.xlsx"Data set (1.) contains survey data - point intercept counts of macroalgae across 3 distinct environmental zones of Port Phillip Bay in Oct/ Nov 2013. Percentage cover of macroalgae was assessed visually by inspecting algae present at each of 50 intersecting points (defined by the intersection of perpendicularly strung wires) within five 0.5 m by 0.5 m metal quadrats placed at 10 m intervals along a single 50 m transect line laid at each of 6 sites within each of the environmentally distinct zones during Spring (October/ November). The intersecting points were then multiplied by two to obtain percentage cover estimates for each macroalgal taxa (resolved to species-level where possible, or genera-level). The total number of intersecting points counted could exceed 50 points (i.e. >100% cover) as algal taxa composing the overstory, understory and substratum were assessed.Data set (2.) contains co-variates concurrently measured at each survey transect in data set (1.).Data set (3.) contains data for the pilot octocoral grazer-exclusion experiment. Data is planar percentage cover of macroalgae in grazer-exclusion and background control plots in each of 3 distinct environmental zones of Port Phillip Bay.Data set (4.) contains Ulva seaweed production estimates in the absence of grazers across the 3 distinct environmental zones of Port Phillip Bay. Data set (5.) contains data for the procedurally-controlled octocoral grazer-exclusion experiment. Data is planar percentage cover of macroalgae in grazer-exclusion and background control plots in each of 3 distinct environmental zones of Port Phillip Bay

    Några missförstånd beträffande Pehr Henrik Ling

    Dag Hedman, Some Misapprehensions Concerning Pehr Henrik Ling. The essay deals with "the Father of Swedish Gymnastics", Pehr Henrik Ling (1776–1839), who was also a prolific author of epics, plays and poems. Its aim is to rectify certain misconceptions about his life and letters, partly originating in Ling's own time, and thus representing a tradition of almost 200 years. There is a consensus, that Ling was an Herculean giant of enormous strength. Since physical strength plays an important role in his epics Gylfe (three versions: 1810, 1812 and 1814), Asarne (1816–1833), and Tirfing eller Dödssvärdet (Tirfing or the Sword of Death; written in 1820, printed in 1836), and Ling was the founder of Swedish Gymnastics, having written several theoretical works on gymnastics, health and fitness, it is easy to imagine how this myth has arisen. Contemporaneous sources show that Ling was small, thin and ailing all his life. The preeminence of athletic heroes must be explained in another fashion, i. e. in the light of the "moral-medical philosophy", according to which physical and moral strength are connected, health and virtue being eachother's companions as well as illness and vice. Analogous to the myth of Ling's gigantic physical appearance, one finds exaggerated images of the size of his literary output. Generally one speaks of enormous quantities, with the bulky epics as the peak. Since the appreciation of Ling has been low amongst later generations of literary historians, the sheer mass of his literary production has been used as another sign of his weakness as an author. Speaking in quantitative terms, however, Ling comes in as number 3 in his generation of Swedish authors of belles lettres (2 655 pages) after Frans Michael Franzén (1772–1847; 2 782 pages) and Carl Jonas Love Almqvist (1793–1866; exceeding 10 700 pages). Since neither Franzén nor Almqvist have been criticised for their proficiency, it seems irrelevant to chastise Ling for the same reason.  Actually, it is peculiar that critics have not pursued the idea of Ling as an author of 'masses of literature' and thought of him in terms of an author of 'mass literature'. His æuvre is so clearly oriented towards the techniques and motifs of popular literature. Without doubt, his amalgamation of high and low, so typical for the Romantic movement, was too strong for Swedish critics of the time, being more Classical-oriented in their taste, and thus shunning Ling's juicy mixture of metaphysical speculations, eroticism, and violence.  The rumor of Ling being a gothomaniac is also refuted in the essay. Only slightly more than half of his plays deal with Gothic (i. e. Old Norse) themes (six of ten plays). In all of them – as well as in the epic Asarne – the victory of Christianity over the Old Norse religion is treated. In his preface to Eddornas SinnebildsLära (The Emblems of the Eddas; 1819–1820) Ling expressly wrote that one ought to use the Old Norse myths with caution. The handbooks have generally denied Ling and his Old Norse themes any influence on Swedish art in the 19th century. Contrary to this established view, the present essay shows that he indeed was influential, not only during his life-time, but well through the century

    Designing role-based view for object-relational databases

    No full text
    In a federated database system, a view mechanism is crucial since it is used to define exportable subsets of data ; to perform a virtual restructuring d ataset; and to construct the integrated schema. The view service in federated databa se systems must be capable of retaining as much semantic information as possible. The object-oriented ( 0 - 0 ) model was considered the suitable canonical data model since it meets the original criteria for canonical model selection. However, with the emergence of stronger object-relational (0 -R ) model, the re is a clear argument for using an 0 - R canonical model in the federation. Hence, research should now focus on th e development of semantically powerful view mechanism for th e newer model. Meanwhile, the availability of real 0 -R technologies offers researchers the opportunity to develop different forms of view mechanisms. The concept of roles has been widely studied in 0 - 0 modelling and development. The role model represents some characteristics that the traditional 0-0 model lacked, such as object migration, multiple occurrences and context-dependent access. While many forms of 0-0 views were designed for the 0-0 canonical model, one option was to extend the 0-0 model to incorporate a role model. In a role model, the real entity is modelled in the form of a role rather than an object. An object represents the permanent properties of an entity is a root object; and an object represents the temporary properties of an entity is a role object. The contribution of this research is to design a view system that employees the concept of roles for the 0 -R canonical model in a federated database system. In this thesis, an examination of the current 0 -R metamodel is provided first in order to provide an environment for recognising the roleview metadata and measuring the view performance; then a Roleview Definition Language (RDL) is introduced, along with the semantics for defining virtual classes and generating virtua l extents; finally, a working prototype is provided to prove th e role-based view system is implementable and the syntax is semantically correct
