<p>Effective elastic properties of snow, firn, and porous ice are key for<br>various applications and influenced by ice volume fraction and<br>different types of anisotropy. The geometrical anisotropy of the ice-matrix created by temperature gradient metamorphism in low-density<br>snow and firn and the crystallographic anisotropy commonly created<br>upon deformation in high-density, porous ice. Towards a quantitative-distinction of the impact of the different anisotropies on elasticity,<br>we derived a parametrization for the effective elasticity tensor over<br>the entire range of volume fractions as a function of density and<br>geometrical anisotropy. We employed FEM simulations on 395 X-ray<br>tomography microstructures of Lab, Alpine, Arctic, and Antarctic<br>samples. We employed an empirical two-parameter modification of the<br>anisotropic Hashin Shtrikman bounds to obtain a closed-form<br>parametrization accounting for density, anisotropy, and the correct<br>limiting behavior for bubbly ice. We compare our prediction to<br>previous parametrizations derived in limited density regimes and we<br>utilize the Thomson parameter to compare the geometrical-elastic<br>anisotropy to the crystallographic-elastic anisotropy of<br>monocrystalline ice. Our results suggest that a coupled treatment of<br>geometrical and crystallographic effects would be beneficial for a<br>careful interpretation of acoustic measurements in deep firn.</p>

Several years ago a three-parameter system of stellar classification has been proposed (1, 2), for the early-type stars (O-G): it was an improvement on the two-parameter system described by Barbier and Chalonge (3).

For years the separation of carcinoma and sarcoma and the subclassification of sarcomas has been based on the appearance of the tumor cells and their microscopic growth pattern and information derived from certain histochemical and special stains. Although this method of study has produced good agreement among pathologists in the separation of carcinoma from sarcoma, it has given less uniform results in the subclassification of sarcomas. There remain examples of neoplasms of different histogenesis, the classification of which is questionable because of similar cytologic and growth patterns at the light microscopic level; i.e. amelanotic melanoma versus carcinoma and occasionally sarcoma, sarcomas with an epithelial pattern of growth simulating carcinoma, histologically similar mesenchymal tumors of different histogenesis (histiocytoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma, lytic osteogenic sarcoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma), and myxomatous mesenchymal tumors of diverse histogenesis (myxoid rhabdo and liposarcomas, cardiac myxoma, myxoid neurofibroma, etc.)

Summary: Different shapes of individual subjective discount functions were compared using real measures of willingness to accept future monetary outcomes in an experiment. The two-parameter hyperbolic discount function described the data better than three alternative one-parameter discount functions. However, the hyperbolic discount functions did not explain the common difference effect better than the classical discount function. Discount functions were also estimated from survey data of Dutch households who reported their willingness to postpone positive and negative amounts. Future positive amounts were discounted more than future negative amounts and smaller amounts were discounted more than larger amounts. Furthermore, younger people discounted more than older people. Finally, discount functions were used in explaining consumers' willingness to pay for an energy-saving durable good. In this case, the two-parameter discount model could not be estimated and the one-parameter models did not differ significantly in explaining the data.

Larval growth and settlement rates are important larval behaviors for larval protections. The variability of larval growthsettlement rates and physical conditions for 2006-2012 and in the future with potential climate changes was studied using the coupling ROMS-IMBs, and new temperature and current indexes. Forty-four experimental cases were conducted for larval growth patterns and release mechanisms, showing the spatial, seasonal, annual, and climatic variations of larval growthsettlement rates and physical conditions, demonstrating that the slight different larval temperature-adaption and larval release strategies made difference in larval growth-settlement rates, and displaying that larval growth and settlement rates highly depended upon physical conditions and were vulnerable to climate changes.
