Lithofacies and depositional environment spanning the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary on the New Jersey coastal plain
No full textThe sedimentary record spanning the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K/Pg) boundary was examined in outcrop and in seven cores recovered from a 50 km long transect along the outcrop belt on the New Jersey coastal plain. The objectives were to: (1) conduct a high-resolution study of the K/Pg lithofacies, (2) document spatial and temporal changes in composition and texture of the sediments, and (3) interpret any changes in the depositional environment across this important geological boundary when a mass extinctions occurred. Analyses include core description, textural, petrographic, microprobe, and XRD analyses. Five lithofacies were interpreted in the Upper Cretaceous sediments and three lithofacies were recognized from the lowermost Paleogene deposits. Microprobe studies show the chemistry of Upper Cretaceous and lowermost Paleogene glauconite are identical (~7-8% K2O), but their color difference may suggest different redox condition. XRD analyses show the Upper Cretaceous clay contains more land-derived detritus than the lowermost Paleogene clay. The following sequence of events is interpreted from the sediment record spanning the K/Pg boundary: (1) deposition in near-shore setting and slow sedimentation in middle shelf when sea level was falling, albeit still shelfal depth; (2) deposition of K/Pg lithofacies when sea level was falling possibly creating a diastem but not a sequence boundary, per se; (3) a transgression above the K/Pg boundary; and (4) deposition in middle shelf possibly with decreased ocean productivity and a more reducing environment. There is no sedimentological evidence above the K/Pg boundary, suggesting tsunami-related deposition associated with a bolide impact. Either a tsunamite was eliminated by bioturbation, or NJCP was too far from the impact site to be affected. A transgressive lag, instead, was formed by normal sedimentation during the subsequent transgression in the early Paleocene.M.S.Includes bibliographical referencesby Hendra Wahyud
Analysis of Hendra Virus Fusion Protein N-Terminal Transmembrane Residues
Full text linkHendra virus (HeV) is a zoonotic enveloped member of the family Paramyoxviridae. To successfully infect a host cell, HeV utilizes two surface glycoproteins: the attachment (G) protein to bind, and the trimeric fusion (F) protein to merge the viral envelope with the membrane of the host cell. The transmembrane (TM) region of HeV F has been shown to have roles in F protein stability and the overall trimeric association of F. Previously, alanine scanning mutagenesis has been performed on the C-terminal end of the protein, revealing the importance of β-branched residues in this region. Additionally, residues S490 and Y498 have been demonstrated to be important for F protein endocytosis, needed for the proteolytic processing of F required for fusion. To complete the analysis of the HeV F TM, we performed alanine scanning mutagenesis to explore the residues in the N-terminus of this region (residues 487–506). In addition to confirming the critical roles for S490 and Y498, we demonstrate that mutations at residues M491 and L492 alter F protein function, suggesting a role for these residues in the fusion process

Popularity, media and electability: study of Alfiansyah Komeng in the election of members of the Regional Representative Council (DPD) in West Java / Hendra, Mudiyati Rahmatunnisa and Ratnia Solihah
Full text linkIn 2024 Indonesia will again hold general elections to fill executive and legislative positions. One of the legislative member elections was to elect members of the Regional Representative Council (DPD) as the institution representing each province in Indonesia. An interesting phenomenon in this election was Alfiansyah Komeng's election as a DPD member representing West Java Province, surpassing the other candidates with the highest vote acquisition of 5,399,699 votes. Using a qualitative approach and data collection techniques through literature studies, the results showed that Komeng's electability was based on popularity, integrity, people's dissatisfaction with conventional politics, photos on ballot papers and the benefits of holding elections simultaneously. Meanwhile, according to the author, the media and the message conveyed are minor factors in Komeng's choice

Movement Ecology of the Black Flying Fox (Pteropus alecto) in a Changing Landscape: Implications for Hendra Virus Spillover in Eastern Australia
No full textHistorically nomadic, black flying foxes (Pteropus alecto) traveled hundreds of kilometers across the landscape in search of seasonally ephemeral plant food resources. Land clearing has decreased native habitat of P. alecto in coastal eastern Australia and increased seasonal variability in native food sources, driving flying foxes into continuously-occupied roosts in and around urban areas. As a natural host for Hendra virus, understanding P. alecto movement is critical to understanding Hendra virus and its transmission and spillover dynamics. High densities of smaller roosts, along with consistent resources temporally, led us to hypothesize that bats in urban roosts would forage closer to the roost sites than previously recorded for bats at non-urban roosts. However, we expected that bats would exhibit seasonally variable movements, especially as native resources are increasingly unavailable in winter months. We investigated foraging distances, track tortuosity, and foraging ranges, by tracking 76 adult P. alecto from two continuously occupied roosts using GPS-GSM trackers. One roost is in a highly urbanized area, and the other is in a peri-urban area, adjacent to native habitat. We collected 883 bat-nights of tracking data (722 foraging nights and 161 roost-switching nights) throughout 2019–2021. Although we observed occasional extreme nightly movements (up to 218.27 km), most nightly foraging distances and maximum displacement calculations from the roost were comparatively short (mean 7.0 ± 5.0 km). Bats travelled longer distances when foraging from the peri-urban roost, with individual mean track lengths ranging from 8.7 – 51.6 km compared to 3.7 – 44.4 km at the urban roost. Bats from the urban roost predominantly foraged locally in developed areas, whereas bats from the peri-urban roost displayed a mixed foraging strategy, exploring developed, agricultural, and native landscapes. Understanding foraging movements of urban resident flying foxes can help prevent human-wildlife conflicts and promote coexistence in and around increasingly urban environments. Insight into how the movement ecology and foraging behaviors of P. alecto could affect Hendra virus spillover and dynamics in this system could also further help us understand other zoonotic diseases globally.Embargo status: Restricted until 01/2174.

No full textHydrothermal system of the Papandayan Volcano from temperature, self-potential (SP) and geochemical measurements
No full textInternational audiencePapandayan volcano in West Java, Indonesia, is characterized by intense hydrothermal activities manifested by numerous fumaroles at three craters or kawah, i.e. Mas, Manuk and Baru. The latter was created after November 2002 phreatic eruption. Since 2011, numerous volcano-tectonic B events are encountered and the volcano was set on alert status on several occasions. The purpose of the present study is to delineate the structure of the summital hydrothermal system from Self-Potential (SP), soil temperature and gas concentrations in the soil (CO2, SO2 and H2S) data. This combination of geophysical and geochemical methods allows identification of the weak permeable zones serving as preferential pathways for hydrothermal circulation and potential candidates to future landslides or flank collapses. This study is an on-going collaborative research project and we plan to conduct electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and also Induced-Polarization (IP) surveys. Additional data would allow the 3D imaging of the studied area. The IP parameters will be used to characterise and to quantify the degree of alteration of the volcanic rocks as has been shown very recently in the laboratory studies. There are also rocks and soil samples that will undergo laboratory analyses at ISTerre for IP and complex resistivity parameters at the sample scale that will help to interpret the survey results
Tinjauan Yuridis Mengenai Peran Dan Tanggung Jawab Notaris Dan Ppat Terhadap Pembuatan Akta Jual Beli Tanah (studi Pada Kantor Notaris Dan Ppat Erry Hendra Gunawan.,s.h,sp.n)
No full textIn making the deed of sale and purchase of land, the client, be it the seller or the buyer, must be fully responsible, but in this case, the making of the deed of sale and purchase of land does not run smoothly where the Notary and PPAT check the terms of the agreement in making the deed of sale and purchase of land. there is an error that causes the deed to become a problem and can even be legally flawed. The seller is not present when the deed will be read out and the signing of the land sale and purchase deed, previously the client has agreed on a predetermined time together to be attended by both parties in reading and signing the deed. The main problem in this research is What are the Roles and Responsibilities of Notaries and PPATs towards Clients in Making a Deed of Sale and Purchase of Land Case Study at the Notary and PPAT Office Erry Hendra Gunawan.,S.H.Sp.N?
