Following the materialist approaches to contemporary digital memory- making, this article explores how unequal access to memory production in videogames is determined along economic and cultural lines. Based on semi-structured qualitative interviews with different European, Asian and North American historical game developers, I make the case for how materialist and cultural aspects of videogame ...

Fjellrype og lirype har en vid sirkumpolar utbredelse, med populasjoner som ofte har store, sykliske svingninger. Disse rypesyklusenes periodelengde og amplitude varierer imidlertid svært mye i tid og rom. Mens norske rypepopulasjoner har hatt en 3–4-års syklus koplet til smågnagersyklusen, kan rype andre steder i verden ha 9–11-års sykluser koplet til andre arter i økosystemet. Rypedynamikken kan ...

En este trabajo nos ocupamos de las estructuras perifrásticas que contienen negación en su interior, siguiendo el esquema <auxiliar + no + auxiliado>, y concretamente de las condiciones bajo las cuales una perífrasis admite la interposición de este adverbio. Argumentamos, mediante un examen detallado de las perífrasis de gerundio e infinitivo, que la interposición de la negación produce una lectura ...

In transition metal-mediated carboxylation reactions, CO₂ inserts into a metal–nucleophile bond. At the carboxylation transition state (TS), CO₂ may interact with the metal (<i>inner</i>-sphere path) or may insert without being activated by the metal (<i>outer</i>-sphere path). Currently, there is no consensus as to which path prevails. In order to establish general predictions ...

The aim is to put new light on the single ladder problem (SLP). Some new methods for finding complete integer solutions to the corresponding quartic equation z 4 −2L z 3 +( L 2 − a 2 − b 2 ) z 2 +2L a 2 z− L 2 a 2 =0 z4−2Lz3+(L2−a2−b2)z2+2La2z−L2a2=0 are developed. For the case L≥ L min L≥Lmin , these methods imply a complete parametric representation for integer ...

The question of ligand noninnocence in Cu corroles has long been a topic of discussion. Presented herein is a Cu K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) study, which provides a direct probe of the metal oxidation state, of three Cu corroles, Cu[TPC], Cu[Br8TPC], and Cu[(CF3)8TPC] (TPC = meso-triphenylcorrole), and the analogous Cu(II) porphyrins, Cu[TPP], Cu[Br8TPP], and Cu[(CF3)8TPP] (TPP = ...

This study articulates the epistemological underpinnings of a web banner’s visual elements featured on the webpage of the research centre, Kindergarten Knowledge Centre for Systemic Research on Diversity and Sustainable Futures (KINDknow). Through interdisciplinary work within a diverse framework including dialogical, cultural, historical, systemic, anthropological and more-than-human epistemological ...

Among the complex ecosystems and habitats that form the deep sea, submarine canyons and open slope systems are regarded as potential hotspots of biodiversity. We assessed the spatial and temporal patterns of biodiversity in sediment communities of a NW Mediterranean Canyon and its adjacent open slope (Blanes Canyon) with DNA metabarcoding. We sampled three layers of sediment and four different depths ...

The paper presents a visual methods approach from a cross national methodological project that used digital visual technologies to examine young children's perspectives in father-child interactions. The approach combines capturing the dialectic with visual reflexivity. The notion of ‘capturing the dialectic’ specifically by analysing conflict to gather the child’s intention as their perspective, is ...

<i>Background</i>: Less smoking should lead to fewer COPD cases. We aimed at estimating time trends in the prevalence and burden of COPD in Norway from 2001 to 2017.<p><p> <i>Methods</i>: We used pre-bronchodilator spirometry and other health data from persons aged 40– 84 years in three surveys of the Tromsø Study, 2001– 2002, 2007– 2008 and 2015– 2016. We applied spirometry lower limits of normal ...
