We present an enhanced High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) digital terrain model (DTM) mosaic of the Mars 2020 landing site at Jezero crater. Our DTM mosaic is produced using the FUB MIST Toolbox (A Pre-Trained Deep Learning Toolbox for Mars Monocular Image to Surface Topography Estimation, Tao & Walter, 2023), which significantly improves the effective resolution and eliminates artefacts. To generate this product, we use the publicly available Mars 2020 TRN (Terrain Relative Navigation) orthoimage and DTM mosaics, provided by the United States Geological Survey (USGS), as inputs. The resultant HiRISE MADNet DTM mosaic is strictly co-aligned with the original USGS DTM and orthoimage mosaics, which are already co-aligned with the USGS Context Camera (CTX) based DTM and orthoimage mosaics, as well as the ESA/DLR/FUB High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) level 5 DTM and orthoimage mosaics that cover the same area.

A high-altitude observation campaign with the Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera was used to construct five global mosaics of Mars from images captured through each of its five different spectral filters: panchromatic, red, green, blue and infra-red. The substantial overlaps of high-altitude images enable the calculation of a global colour model yielding mosaics which both retain long range colour information and maintain high relative colour accuracy. The mosaics are currently processed at 2 km/pixel.

The 2023 Disaster Research Journals (DRJ) list builds on the Disaster Research Journals Database (DRJD), which encompasses a curated list of journals dedicated to disaster research and science. The primary objective is to serve as a reliable resource for scholars, practitioners, and students navigating the vast and evolving landscape of disaster research literature. While the DRJ list and database can also assist researchers, professionals, and policymakers in identifying relevant publication outlets and consolidated sources of information in the field, they can be tools to track evolving trends and observe the development of the field, which has drastically expanded in the last decades. By August 2023, the DRJD contains 39 dimensions (or data points) for 111 journals. These data points range from basics such as ‘name’, ‘International Standard Serial Number (ISSN)’, ‘Uniform Resource Locator (URL)’, ‘publisher’, ‘country’, and ‘language’, to more specific details such as ‘short description’, ‘classification’, ‘COPE ethics guidelines’ signatory, ‘Open Access policy’, ‘Author Processing Charges (APC)’, ‘Copyrights’, ‘Turnaround times’, and ‘Periodicity’ (i.e., issues per year). Additionally, the database includes journal metrics like ‘Journal Impact Factor’, ‘CiteScore’, and ‘Google Scholar Metrics’.

High-impact river floods are often caused by very extreme precipitation events with return periods of several decades or centuries, and the design of flood protection measures thus relies on reliable estimates of the corresponding return values. However, calculating such return values from observations is associated with large statistical uncertainties due to the limited length of observational time series. Here, estimates of 100-year return values of daily precipitation on a global grid based on a large data set of model-generated precipitation events from ensemble weather prediction are presented, in which statistical uncertainties of the return values are substantially reduced compared to observational estimates.

Governments all over the world are rapidly embracing digital technologies for information collection, governance, and social control. Recent studies suggest citizens may accept or even support digital surveillance. By using an online survey dataset on public opinion about facial recognition technology, contact tracing apps, and the social credit system in China, Germany, the US, and the UK, this paper shows that these studies have overlooked a small yet significant group of digital technology doubters. Our results show that while up to 10% of Chinese citizens belong to the group of “digital doubters,” this group is the largest in Germany with 30% of citizens. The US and the UK are in the middle with approximately 20%. While citizens who belong to this group of digital doubters worry about privacy and surveillance issues, their attitudes can also be explained by them not being convinced of the benefits of digital technologies, including improved efficiency, security, or convenience. We find that the more citizens lack trust in their government, the more likely they are to belong to the group of digital doubters. Our findings demonstrate that in both democratic and authoritarian states, there are citizens opposing the adoption of certain digital technologies. This underscores the importance of initiating societal debate to determine the appropriate regulations that align with these societal preferences.

Die vorliegende qualitative Erhebung wurde von der Freien Universität Berlin (FUB) in Kooperation mit der Universität Leipzig (UL) im Rahmen des Verbundprojektes „tech4comp“ durchgeführt.

Das Projekt verfolgt das Ziel, ein klassisches, individuell abgestimmtes Mentoring unter Zuhilfenahme von Data Analytics digital neu zu konzipieren, um die Vorteile von individuellem Mentoring für große Gruppen von Studierenden verfügbar zu machen. Dabei unterstützt die FUB das unter der Leitung des Fachbereichs Arbeitspädagogik der Universität Leipzig durchgeführte Teilvorhaben „Didaktische Modellierung“, das die Identifizierung relevanter Kompetenzmodelle und die Konzipierung datengestützter Bildungsmodelle sowie eines geeigneten Mentoring-Prozess-Modells zum Ziel hat.

Im Rahmen dieses Teilprojektes wurde der Ist-Zustand der Mentoring-Angebote an deutschsprachigen Hochschulen im Rahmen einer Online-Recherche erhoben und durch leitfadengestützte Interviews ergänzt. Der vorliegende Bericht beinhaltet die erhobenen Daten und das Interviewmaterial. Er ist in drei Teile untergliedert: "Teil I: Einführung", "Teil II: Erhobene Daten aus der Online-Recherche" und "Teil III: Interviewmaterial".

Small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are an important force for promoting innovation in China as they represent the bulk of China’s industrial fabric and have the most innovative vitality and potential due to entrepreneurial dynamism, organizational flexibility, and fast responsiveness. However, SMEs generally lack financial, technological, and human resources to develop innovation. Furthermore, innovation gives rise to externalities, which could reduce the incentive of SMEs to engage in innovation. Therefore, public aids are needed in support of SME innovation. In light of the variety of innovation behavior among SMEs, innovation policies should be designed to target certain SMEs and support them according to their specific characteristics. In addition, with a strong focus on formal R&D and main types of technological innovation (i.e., product and process innovation), prior research restricts a comprehensive understanding of diverse innovation activities, especially non-R&D activities, and different innovation types, especially non-technological innovation. Given the need for targeted innovation policies and the under-researched heterogeneity among innovating SMEs, the general aim of this dissertation is to analyze and address SME heterogeneity in terms of innovation activities and types. This dissertation is organized into five chapters. Chapter 1 introduces research motivations, theoretical background, research design, and an overview of the three articles presented in Chapters 2, 3, and 4. Chapter 5 concludes by discussing the contributions to innovation research, innovation policy, and innovation management, along with the limitations of this dissertation and the directions for future research. Three empirical articles in Chapters 2, 3, and 4 constitute the core of this dissertation and they are summarized in the following. The first article in Chapter 2 empirically analyzes SME heterogeneity in innovation activities by exploring how SMEs undertake distinct internal and external activities. This article, focusing on non-R&D sources of innovation, compares non-R&D and R&D SMEs with respect to the separate and combined effects of non-R&D activities on product and process innovation. Drawing on a database collected from 1,392 manufacturing SMEs in China, empirical result reveals heterogeneous importance of non-R&D activities to product and process innovation for non-R&D and R&D SMEs. Specifically, non-R&D SMEs rely mainly on embodied knowledge to introduce technological innovation, while R&D SMEs can access external knowledge from customers and scientific sources to develop product innovation and also from suppliers to introduce process innovation. In addition, substitutability is found between internal and external innovation strategies composed of non-R&D activities, which is limited to product innovation for non-R&D SMEs and process innovation for R&D SMEs. The second article in Chapter 3 contributes to the empirical analysis of SME heterogeneity in innovation types with the use of different combinations of innovation types. This article investigates SMEs’ combined use of different innovation types as well as the effect of the combination of innovation types on SME performance. The empirical analysis is based on data from 1,139 Chinese manufacturing SMEs. The results of factor analysis imply a tendency of combining product, quality, and organizational innovation and the other tendency of combining efficiency and flexibility innovation. A conditional approach to supermodularity is used to test for the relationship between different types of innovation. The results show that product, quality, and organizational innovation are neither complements nor substitutes, meaning that their combination generates only additive effects on SME performance. It is also found that substitutability between efficiency and flexibility exists without organizational innovation but it disappears with organizational innovation, which suggests that simultaneous organizational innovation is required for better use of efficiency and flexibility innovation in combination. The third article in Chapter 4 addresses SME innovation heterogeneity through a comprehensive identification of SME innovation patterns. Based on a sample of 1,127 Chinese manufacturing SMEs, this article identifies SME innovation patterns in innovation activities and innovation types and uses the identified innovation patterns to analyze the relationship between innovation and SME performance. The innovation activities associated with internal and external knowledge sourcing characterize three innovation sourcing patterns, namely internal sourcing group, low sourcing group, and open sourcing group, which differ in activeness and openness of knowledge sourcing. The innovation types involving technological and non-technological types of innovation profile three innovation introducing patterns, namely production innovators, product innovators, and multifaceted innovators, which differ in the variety of innovation types introduced. Regarding the relationship between innovation sourcing and introducing patterns, being active in innovation activities increases the likelihood of introducing various innovation types and being open is most likely to capture a variety of innovation types. The results for the relationship between innovation introducing patterns and SME performance show that production innovators combining efficiency and flexibility innovation experience decreased performance while product innovators focusing on product innovation and multifaceted innovators combining technological and non-technological innovation achieve better performance.

The “jitter_solve” program was recently introduced by NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline (ASP) software as a possible solution "to reduce the effect of unmeasured perturbations in the linescan sensor as it acquires the data". “Jitter_solve” program reminds the work of the “bundle_adjust” program, but it adjusts each individual camera position and orientation in the linescan model instead of the only single one when using the CSM camera model. We present our implementation of the DEM generation and provide it to the public as a basis for discussion.

The study area is the unnamed crater located within highlands of Tyrrhena Terra on Mars. The crater is assumed to be an open-basin paleolake as there are channels looking like inlet and outlet; the high-quality DEM is needed to study possible fluvial activity in this crater.

Multiplexed cellular imaging typically relies on the sequential application of detection probes, such as antibodies or DNA barcodes, which is complex and time-consuming. To address this, we developed here protein nanobarcodes, composed of combinations of epitopes recognized by specific sets of nanobodies. The nanobarcodes are read in a single imaging step, relying on nanobodies conjugated to distinct fluorophores, which enables a precise analysis of large numbers of protein combinations.

Das Projekt dokumentiert Dialoge zwischen Sprechern aus mehrsprachigen Gemeinden in Lateinamerika. Um die Bearbeitung des Common Ground beobachten zu können, wurden kommunikative Spiele elizitiert, die in einer romanischen und einer anderen amerikanischen Sprache ausgeführt wurden. Das lexikalische Material wurde nach metrischen Kriterien ausgewählt. Unsere Elizitationstechniken, die in allen Sprachgemeinschaften die gleichen sind, stellen einen hohen Grad der Vergleichbarkeit zwischen den Sprachen sicher. Alle Gespräche wurden transkribiert und die nichtromanischen außerdem übersetzt und morphologisch glossiert. Auf diese Weise trägt das Projekt zu einer erhöhten Sichtbarkeit für wenig erforschte Sprachgemeinschaften bei.
