investigate the combined effects of diet and temperature on physiology, morphology and behaviour under controlled conditions, that reflect variation between urban and ex-urban spaces

The effects of temperature and diet on the physiology, morphology and behaviour of spiders (Araneae), and how this may be influenced by urbanisation
Abstract
Increased urbanization is resulting in highly modified environments worldwide. Currently, over half of the world’s human population lives in cities. Urbanisation results in challenging environments for many wildlife species, including spiders, typically presenting a loss of natural resources (i.e. habitat and food) and high levels of anthropogenic disturbance. Despite these changes, some species of spiders prosper in urban environments and occur in high numbers. Such taxa are often described as urban ‘adapters’ or ‘exploiters’. Their success under these conditions suggests that some spiders have a combination of physiological, morphological and behavioural adaptations that enable them to withstand the demands of urbanisation. My project will take a behavioural and physiological approach to exploring the effect of such features of urbanized areas as changes in food density, temperature and predation level.

Objectives
The main aim of my project is to determine how temperature and diet influence the physiology, morphology and behaviour of spiders (Araneae), and how this may be influenced by urbanisation. This will be explored through the following research objectives:

To investigate the combined effects of diet and temperature on physiology, morphology and behaviour under controlled conditions, that reflect variation between urban and ex-urban spaces;
To determine how the manipulation of debris stored in the web influences predatory response, escape behaviour, persistence and survival and how this varies between spiders in urban and ex-urban spaces;
To determine the impacts of urban and exurban environments on diet and trophic interactions, through collection of potential prey in habitats and actual prey in webs.

Background
Urbanisation is the modification, often with concomitant degradation, of landscapes to support the increasing human populations in cities and towns around the world (Defries et al. 2010). The substantial disturbances to natural landscapes created by city growth often destroy the habitats of native species. Urbanisation results in homogenised environments, and as a result biodiversity is reduced (McKinney 2006). This occurs as few species are able to meet the relatively narrow requirements for survival in the newly altered environment. As a result, animals from a range of trophic groups, and interactions between these tropic levels are affected (Faeth et al. 2005). Some species, however, seem to prosper in urban environments and occur in high numbers. Such animals are often described as urban ‘adapters’ or ‘exploiters’ (McKinney, 2006).
There has been a bias towards studies of the effects of urbanisation on vertebrates, and comparatively little is known about the effects of urbanisation on invertebrates (McIntyre 2000). Arthropods are particularly important for studying the effects of urbanization for several reasons. They are extremely diverse and thus may provide a snapshot of overall biological diversity in an area. Their relatively short generation times mean that they will respond to anthropogenic changes at a quicker rate than vertebrates. They are reasonably easy to sample, and invertebrate use in scientific research is not as opposed as the use of vertebrates. As a group they represent a spectrum of trophic levels, and lastly, they may be important sociological, agronomical, and economical components of human-altered habitats. Any changes in their environment may disrupt the functions that arthropods play in the ecosystem; as a result arthropods can be used as biological indicators (McIntyre 2000). The human population is rising exponentially and statistics show current world population to be greater than 7 billion. More than 50 % of humanity lives in and around cities (UNPD 2005). It is predicted that this proportion will succeed 60 % by 2025 (Antrop 2000).
Spiders are a good model to understand the effects of urbanisation on biodiversity as several species of spider e.g. Nephila edulis have been identified as urban adapters (Lowe et al. 2014). Furthermore, spiders are an important group of predatory invertebrates in urban horticultural and agricultural systems (Humphreys 1988), and are excellent indicators of habitat modification and disturbance (Wilcove et al. 1998). Spiders are a valuable organism with which to study the effects of urbanisation on predators and their ecology, as they can greatly affect food webs and ecosystem characteristics, such as plant community composition, herbivore abundance and nutrient cycling (Schmitz 2008). The study of spiders and their responses to anthropogenic change will allow for a better understanding of how to preserve trophic interactions and biodiversity in urban communities.
My proposed research will explore questions concerning the behavioural, physiological and personality adaptations of urban spiders, with respect to diet, growth and survival

measure racial/ethnic segregation in the county you have been working with for previous assignments.

For this assignment, you will measure racial/ethnic segregation in the county you have been working with for previous assignments. You will look at segregation in 2000 and 2010 using census tracts as the neighborhood unit and the county overall as the reference area.
Data
Data for year 2000
Select all tracts within your county (Geography -> Tract -> State -> County)
Use DEC Summary File 1 survey
Use Table P008: HISPANIC OR LATINO BY RACE
Tract labels need to be on the rows and counts by race and ethnicity in the columns
Customize Table -> Download (NOT EXCEL!) -> Download
2010
Follow the same steps but use Table P5: HISPANIC OR LATINO ORIGIN BY RACE 
Segregation Analysis
Calculate the dissimilarity index for your county for both of the following pairs of groups:
Non-Hispanic White and Non-Hispanic Black population
Non-Hispanic White and Hispanic population
You will have four total dissimilarity index numbers at the end of this problem set; one for each of these comparisons in 2000 and 2010.
Formula:
D=12∗∑j=1J|xjX−yjY| 
Where xj is the minority population in area j (e.g., tract), yj is the reference group population in area j, X is the total population of the minority group in the region (e.g., county), and Y is the total population of the reference area in the region. Essentially, the formula looks at the degree to which each neighborhood is dissimilar in the representation of the two groups relative to representation in the entire region. If you’re having trouble with figuring out what formulas to put in your spreadsheet, use the example from lecture to help you out (in your case the “neighborhoods” are tracts and the “city” is your chosen county, since that’s the scale of the dissimilarity index you’ll be generating).
What to submit
Show ALL work in your spreadsheets. Combine the two separate CSV files with data into a single Excel file with the tabs labeled by county and year, e.g., MiddlesexCountyNJ2010.
You will submit both a spreadsheet showing your data and calculations and a brief memo in Word presenting AND interpreting your results.
You must also include a table showing the number and percentage of the total population for each group of these three groups in each decade in your memo. I will grade on the formatting of this table, including using an appropriate number of decimals, correctly aligning text and numbers, properly labeling columns, and captioning the table.
Memo requirements:
Include a title that includes your county
Introduce the objective of the activity
Describe the dissimilarity index in plain language – what does it measure?
Discuss your results looking at Black-White and Hispanic-White segregation at two time periods

Title: Critical examination of the latest Government responses to coercive control and intimate partner violence in a relationship.

Word count:

Chapter One: The Law Prior to Section 76 of the Serious Crime Act 2015
Protection from Harassment Act 1997
Prior to the establishment of section 76 of the serious crime act 2015, the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 had been used in addressing harassment issues. The relevance of this Act in protecting individuals is based on the provision of Section 1, in which an individual is prohibited from pursuing any conduct that would amount to harassment of another. Although the Act does not define coercion and control as the significant foundation of an offence, section 4 recognises putting an individual in fear of violence as a significant foundation of the offence. However, the main concern is the relevance of using the provision in this case in defining coercion and control in the case of intimate partner violence.
Criminal Liability under Harassment Act 1997
Under section 2 of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997, the conduct defined in section 1 about harassment could lead to a criminal penalty. However, in the context of civil remedies and liabilities, the case of harassment can be the subject of a claim linked to civil proceedings when defined under the provision of Section 3 of the Act. Furthermore, civil proceedings would be considered a valid option for the victim in cases where there is not enough evidence to amount to criminal prosecution, but the evidence should be enough to get a civil order. Bliss, in this case, further argues that since the criminal liability is considered when the behaviours in question amounted to both harassment and course of contact, in the case where either of these elements is not available or is missing, no criminal liability would be placed on the defendant. The assessment, in this case, put criminal cases to be a matter that must be proven with enough evidence and beyond reasonable doubt that harassment had occurred.
Protection from Harassment Act 1997 and Stalking
Stalking has been recognised as a significant component of intimate partner violence and may include making unwanted calls or messages by the perpetrators. Stalking has also been described as pursuit-oriented behaviours characterised by intrusive and repeated actions, which include harassing, following and threatening with the intent of causing fear and distress to the victim involved. Although most of the cases of stalking occur post-separation, Bradbury‐Jones and Nikupeteri point out that these behaviours have also been observed in the current relationship when one partner is showing stalking behaviours in an intimate partner relationship. The conduct, in this case, has been regarded as exceedingly frightening for the person subjected to stalking.In the context of this study, however, the most important concern is how the Harassment act 1997 played an important role in preventing stalking, thereby playing a critical part in the case of intimate partner violence in a given relationship.
Another important consideration with regard to stalking is how it relates to coercive control. In essence, through its definition, stalking is characterised by following an individual, spying or watching on such individuals, forcing contact with the victims through different means, including social media. Since such behaviours are meant to curtail the freedom of the victims, the perpetrator would be in a position to control the victims. Therefore, irrespective of how innocents some of the behaviours looks, they are a significant cause of an alarm amounting relating to domestic violence and thus, there is a need to assess the relevance of the available law or the development of legal provisions in addressing these behaviours.
The relevance of Protection from Harassment Act in the case of stalking has provided several insights. Firstly, the law under Protection from Harassment does not provide a strict definition of stalking by outlining the conducts that may amount to stalking to which extent would stalking be regarded as harassment in which the tries to protect. Furthermore, the lack of a coherent description of the stalking behaviours by Protection from Harassment Act has played a significant role in limiting its application when it comes to cases where there is a need to differentiate stalking and harassment. Such insight and the definition thresholds become important in portraying the inadequacy observed in the case of Protection from Harassment in solving stalking in intimate partner violence.
In terms of stalking a case of intimate partner violence or domestic violence, Barratt insists that the focus of the Protection from Harassment Act on harassment provides the foundation on how the law would be important in addressing stalking issues by providing relevant remedies to the victims as well as reducing the incidences. In support of this assertion, a report by the Crown Prosecution Services notes that the amendments through the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, which inserted new sections (2A and 4A) in the Protection from Harassment Act relating to Stalking provide the relevance of the law in considering stalking as potential charges. Although the strict legal definition of stalking is lacking, section 2A subsection 3 of the Protection from Harassment provides some examples of the actions or conducts and circumstances that are associated with stalking behaviours. Relying on such a perspective of this provision, the Protection from Harassment Act becomes important in addressing intimate partner violence.
In addressing the issues of domestic abuse such as intimate partner violence, the Protection from Harassment Act, 1997 and especially its section 4 has been criticised for inadequacy. The issues, in this case, involve the difficulties in establishing the circumstances through which cases involving people in a relationship would proceed. Such issues have been observed in R v Curtis where the court failed to conclude that the incidents of a volatile relationship in the course of 9 months could be classified as a course of conduct enough to amount to harassment. Therefore, for this legal provision, the definition of the course of conducts of behaviours amounting to harassment seems as significant in jeopardising justice for the victims of intimate partner violence.
Another issue with regard to section 4 of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997 has been defined by the court under R v Widdows. In this case, the court stressed that when charging a person under section 4, the prosecution teams and the court need to understand that the case presented must portray the concepts of harassment considering that harassment is at the core of this Protection from Harassment Act 1997. Therefore, in the case of the intimate partner relationship and other domestic relationship incidents, the prosecution is required to present how the conduct being charged relate to harassment as defined in the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.
Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004
In bringing the relevance of the Harassment Act 1997 to the cases of domestic violence, Section 12 of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act, 2004 played an important role in amending the 1997 Act. In this case, the court would be allowed to issue a restraining, especially in the case where a defendant of harassment had been acquitted for an offence related to harassment. The court would be allowed to do so in order to protect the victim from further harassment from that defendant. In essence, subsection 5 of section 12 of the Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Act 2004 stresses that even if the person has been acquitted of an offence, the restraining order would be necessary so that the victim will be protected from continuous harassment. The provision, in this case, forms an important basis in the case of domestic violence, especially when the court uses power to restrain one partner from causing further harm to the other partner in a relationship.
The discussion throughout this chapter presents important concerns regarding the available laws in addressing the issues of domestic violence. In this case, it was established that the relevance of the law in the incidents of domestic abuse depends on the guidelines presented by Protection from Harassment legislation. For instance, the criteria provided, such as the definition of the course of conduct, have been important considerations in developing charges that would amount to harassment. However, the legislation has been associated with inadequacy, especially in advanced cases of domestic violence, considering that it lacks a threshold in defining some of the conducts. As such, it creates a gap that needs to be further addressed through legislation.

evaluate the factors enhancing connectivity and intermodality in the EU

Preparation for Specialist Research Project

Introduction
Background
The objective of transport systems (TSs) is to offer people the opportunity to connect as well as prospect for leisure and work. TSs entail various modes across space, which influence a wide range of geographic areas, states, and users at both local and national levels (Chiambaretto and Decker, 2012). However, inadequate coordination among various actors involved may cause inefficient utilisation of resources. As a result, establishing stakeholder and institutional co-ordination across function, space, and funding is crucial to the development of an incorporated and comprehensive TS.
Currently, self-connectivity has augmented to create alternative avenues for passengers who desire to fly to Europe via the air transportation network (ATN) (Cattaneo et al., 2017). Airports and airlines, especially low-cost carriers (LCCs) have begun tackling the need for such passengers using hybridisation process (Klophaus et al., 2012; Morandi et al., 2015). To alter and improve connectivity in the ATN, intermodal arrangements between operators and airlines are progressively becoming a common feature in TS (Chiambaretto and Decker, 2012; Airports Council International (ACI), 2020). The primary transport hubs offering intermodal connections to tourists and locals may include airports, international train stations, and cruise terminals (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) 2016).
Rationale
Intermodality is becoming high in the agenda of politicians and the government in Europe and increasing in other segments of the world. Various scholars perceive this development as a solution to most of the problems encountered in the transport sector in contemporary societies (such as emissions of carbon dioxide and rising levels of accidents) (Caris et al., 2008; Santos, 2017). Additionally, it will play a substantial role in permitting better mobility for travellers across the world. Various research shows the demand for intermodal travels to be growing with the beginning of high-speed rail services (Cattaneo et al., 2017). Another factor causing this development is the continued evolution in demand for air transport, which has forced airlines to reconsider how they can capitalise on the efficiency of their networks (PwC UK 2017).
Significance
Given the complexity associated with understanding intermodality within ATN and connectivity, no single investigation can entirely bring a clear understanding of the phenomenon and its influence on the economy and transportation. Therefore, the proposed research will contribute greatly to the understanding of how air connectivity has evolved through intermodality to improve the movement of people within European countries. Moreover, the outcome will provide crucial information to guide policy-makers and transport stakeholders such as ministers, trade organisations, and passenger groups to perceive the value of intermodal agreements between various transport hubs on connectivity.

Aim and objectives
Aim: To explore how EU single market has improved transport connectivity and intermodality
Objectives
To evaluate the factors enhancing connectivity and intermodality in the EU
To assess how government policies and strategic plans have brought tremendous changes in the TS, especially ATN
To determine the influence of connectivity and intermodality on the expansion of TS and ATN.
Research questions (RQ)
What are the impacts of air connectivity and intermodality on the ATN?
To what extent, does interconnectedness of mode of transports affect ATN?
What factors inhibit air connectivity and intermodal transport in the EU?
Scope and limits of the RQs
The specific intent of the RQs is to point out the factors and influences that have encouraged air connectivity and intermodality in the EU and how it has impacted the ATN in this region. The RQs will primarily support the identification of sectoral dynamics influencing the present level of connection of various transport modes in various regions of Europe. Additionally, they will direct the researcher to identify how policy-makers can develop, implement, and support the ATN/TS to be effective in ensuring the seamless movement of people. However, the RQs are limited to the understanding of the development of connectivity development in regards to ATN.

Describe the physical and social environment of the performance. Is it indoors or outdoors?

Description
Hello,
You may choose any kind of music, and the performance may also include dance, theater, or some other type of
activity on YouTube or any other known platform.
At the beginning of your report be sure to include the following information:
The name of the performer or group.
The location of the performance.
Date, time, and length of the event.
Admission price.
If there is one, attach a copy of the program to this report.
Different performances will be interesting for different reasons. Here are some things to which you should pay
attention.
Context
Describe the physical and social environment of the performance. Is it indoors or outdoors? How do the
performers and audience fill and use the space? Is this a place devoted solely to performance? If it is built to
serve other purposes as well, how does that affect the performance? How would you classify the overall “feel”
of the place: luxurious, utilitarian, seedy? Good acoustics or bad?
Purpose
What are the intended purposes of the performance? For example: community outreach, cultural education,
dancing, listening enjoyment, political protest, socializing, or religious worship. Why are people (musicians and
audience) there? Are the musicians performing for pay, for practice, to show off their skills? Did the audience
come specifically to this event, or is it a performance where people wander by?
Sociocultural background of the music, the musicians, and the audience
To the best of your ability, try to “read” the appearances of the performers and audience (age, gender, race,
socioeconomic status, etc.). With what sort of people is this kind of music most commonly associated?
Audience behavior
How did the audience appear to experience the event? Note any interaction between the musicians and the
audience, and when people seem most interested or affected by the performance.
Musical sound
How would you describe the music, its sound, its style? You may find that it is interesting to focus on a few
songs/pieces or aspects of the performance rather than recounting the whole event. What instruments are played
and how do they contribute to the music? Draw a diagram that shows the layout of the performance space and
the various performers and their instruments. What are the ideas about ensemble that you can see and hear?
Interaction between performers
What are the musical roles, i.e., what does each musician contribute? Who is the leader? How do they
communicate? In cases where there is dance, how does the dancer interact with the musician(s)? Does the dancer
