In acid soils, phosphorus (P) sorption is generally attributed to hydrous oxides of Fe and Aluminum (AI) particularly intropical soils with low pH. However, reports concerning the role of exchangeable AI in P sorption mechanism are very liltle.Phosphorus (P) sorption isotherms were studied in fifteen acid upland soils containing different amount of exchangeable AI. Psorption characteristics were satisfactorily described by the Langmuir equation. which was used to determine P sorptionmaxima and bonding energies, with r values ranging from 0.97 to 0.99. The soils varied widely in their capacities to sorb P.P sorption maxima rangedfrom 303 to 1429 mg kg-I (mean 627 mg kg-I) and bonding energies from 0.65 to 8.00 L mtl (mean 2.39 L mg-I). Exchangeable AI was found not correlated with P sorption maxima (r = -0.11) but significantly correlated with P bonding energies (r = 0.68**). This was clearly shown by clayey soils from Java and Sumatra but not in sandy soils fromKalimantan. The results suggested that in general. reaction of exchangeable AI with P increased P bonding energy butexchangeable AI was not the main component in P sorption maximum

Stress Transmission

Three in vitro, strain gauge instrumented lower legs were loaded in positions ranging from 10 degrees dorsiflexion to 10 degrees plantarflexion with loads corresponding to those seen in normal gait. The interosseous membrane was found to play a critical role in the load-sharing ability of the fibula. After incision of the membrane, fibular strains decreased to essentially zero, thus supporting the hypothesis that the interosseous membrane acts as a conduit for stress transmission to the fibula. An intact membrane keeps the fibula active during the loads and motions of normal gait.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.

AbstractIntuitions guide decision-making, and looking to the evolutionary history of humans illuminates why some behavioral responses are more intuitive than others. Yet a place remains for cognitive processes to second-guess intuitive responses – that is, to be reflective – and individual differences abound in automatic, intuitive processing as well.

Sense Of Obligation

Abstract Tomasello offers a compelling account of the emergence of humans’ sense of obligation. We suggest that more needs to be said about the role of affect in the creation of obligations. We also argue that positive emotions such as gratitude evolved to encourage individuals to fulfill cooperative obligations without the negative quality that Tomasello proposes is inherent in obligations.
