From previous research, I have identified what ichnotaxa dominate each ichnofabric unit and how many ichnotaxa are taking up a share of the total observed ichnofabric units. The contribution of this paper is the 91/17 pattern. The point of this pattern is that only 17% ichnotaxa (6 of 34 ichnotaxa) had 91% of the total ichnofabric units that were observed. In addition, the six ichnotaxa tend to be more monospecific. These are the most effective strategies for the animal to survive by constructing the most essential structures. These strategies are common in brackish paleoecology in the fluvial-marine transition zone.

Theoretical modeling of regular olivine grains misorientations in mimetic paramorphoses after ringwoodite and wadsleyite, the formation of which during the ascension of matter from the Mantle Transition Zone is expected, has been carried out. The coordinates of the misorientation axes and the misorientation angles, characterizing 10 operations of alignment in the pair intergrowths of olivine grains, eight of which are twins, are calculated. Possible conditions for the formation of mimetic paramorphoses predicted here, and the chances of their persistence are discussed. The calculated orientations are compared with the known twinning laws of olivine.

Test Result

As antibiotic resistance becomes a growing health emergency, effective strategies are needed to reduce inappropriate antibiotic use. In this article, one such strategy – communicative practices associated with the C-reactive protein point-of care test – is investigated. Building on a collection of 31 videorecorded consultations from Danish primary care, and using conversation analysis, this study finds that the rapid test can be used throughout the consultation to incrementally build the case for a nonantibiotic treatment recommendation, both when the test result is forecast and reported. The study also finds that the format of reports of elevated results differs from that of ‘normal’ results, resulting in a subtle shift of authority from doctor to test.
