    Normalized 14C activity ratios (F14C) of an African baobab (Adansonia digitata) tree from Oman

    Calender dating and annual character of the baobab's growth rings was confirmed by matching of highly resolved data of normalized 14C activity ratios (F14C) with the bomb peak. Normalized 14C activity ratio (F14C) data was determined at ETH Zürich, Dep. of Earth Sciences, Labor für Ionenstrahlphysik (LIP) and was obtained from cellulose extracted with a base-acid-base-acid-bleaching procedure after (Němec et al., 2010). Cellulose samples were graphitized using an Automated Graphitization Equipment (AGE III) coupled to an elemental analyzer (EA: Vario MICRO cube; Wacker et al., 2010). Once graphitized, the samples were immediately pressed into targets to minimize their interaction with air and their 14C content was measured with a MICADAS mass spectrometer (Wacker et al., 2010a). With intention to minimize possible carry-over effects from the implementation of previous years' non-structural carbohydrates into the current year's wood cellulose, the samples for dating were selected from the last third of each growth ring structure and comprised fibres and vessels while steering clear of terminal parenchyma bands (TPB)which usually complete each Baobab tree ring. 5 individual TPBs were analyzed for 1960-1963 (n = 4) and for 2005. In addition, intra-tree-ring F14C analysis was performed on the tree rings of 1962 (6 samples) and 1963 (8 samples)

    Non-tax revenue and subnational democracy: evidence from Colombia

    No full text
    An influential group of political economists posits a negative relationship between the relative size of non-tax revenues in public balance sheets and the level of democracy in a given county. While empirical evidence for this proposition is largely based on cross-national studies, scholars have largely neglected subnational contexts as important domains of research. Addressing this disjuncture, the author studies the electoral impact of two important subnational non-tax revenues - natural resource royalties and central-government fiscal transfers - at the municipal level in Colombia. Employing a propensity score matching approach to attenuate problems of omitted variable bias, a quantitative analysis of Colombia's 1119 municipalities shows that higher levels of fiscal transfers and petroleum royalties had no discernible impact on the average level of competitiveness in the 2007 and 2011 municipal elections. If anything, there seems to be a positive impact of non-tax revenues on electoral contestation. Supported by qualitative evidence from theoretical outliers in the set of observations, the results suggest that non-tax revenue promotes electoral competition by raising the stakes of attaining political office. At the same time, abundance in fiscal transfers and resource royalties may undermine democratic governance through means that are not reflected in electoral margins.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesIncludes vitaby Lukas Konstantin Kelle
