TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the discovery of a multiply-lensed sub-millimeter galaxy from the HerMES project with an IR luminosity of $1.43 \pm 0.9575.
Abstract: We report the discovery of a bright ($f(250\mum) > 400$ mJy), multiply-lensed submillimeter galaxy \obj\ in {\it Herschel}/SPIRE Science Demonstration Phase data from the HerMES project. Interferometric 880\mum\ Submillimeter Array observations resolve at least four images with a large separation of $\sim 9\arcsec$. A high-resolution adaptive optics $K_p$ image with Keck/NIRC2 clearly shows strong lensing arcs. Follow-up spectroscopy gives a redshift of $z=2.9575$, and the lensing model gives a total magnification of $\mu \sim 11 \pm 1$. The large image separation allows us to study the multi-wavelength spectral energy distribution (SED) of the lensed source unobscured by the central lensing mass. The far-IR/millimeter-wave SED is well described by a modified blackbody fit with an unusually warm dust temperature, $88 \pm 3$ K. We derive a lensing-corrected total IR luminosity of $(1.43 \pm 0.09) \times 10^{13}\, \mathrm{L}_{\odot}$, implying a star formation rate of $\sim 2500\, \mathrm{M}_{\odot}\, \mathrm{yr}^{-1}$. However, models primarily developed from brighter galaxies selected at longer wavelengths are a poor fit to the full optical-to-millimeter SED. A number of other strongly lensed systems have already been discovered in early {\it Herschel} data, and many more are expected as additional data are collected.

TL;DR: The authors conducted a qualitative study focusing on general implicit leadership theories rather than effective images of leaders, and found that implicit leadership theory are composed of both effective and ineffective attributes, which is contrary to the assumption that the image of a leader in general reflects an effective leader.
Abstract: In general, although research into leadership acknowledges negative aspects of leadership, research into implicit leadership theories lags behind in this respect. Most implicit leadership theories research implies that the image of a leader in general reflects an effective leader. However, recent results in leadership research as well as headlines and reports in the popular press cast doubt on this assumption. This article reports a qualitative study, focusing on general implicit leadership theories rather than effective images of leaders. The analysis of 349 statements results in 15 categories that describe leaders in general. The results imply that implicit leadership theories are composed of both effective and ineffective attributes. The study challenges previous assumptions on the effectiveness implied in implicit leadership theories.

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal harvesting of farmed fish is analyzed using both economic and biological parameters, and examples of optimal harvesting for salmon and turbot are given for a yearclass of fish.
Abstract: This paper analyzes the optimal harvesting of farmed fish. A biological model for a yearclass of fish is specified. Output price and costs are added to constitute a bioeconomic model. The effects of economic and biological parameters on optimal harvesting are analyzed. Examples of optimal harvesting for salmon and turbot are given.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial pattern of instability and the mechanisms of change in an active meandering river, particularly whether and how change is propagated, were investigated using more than 20 years of monitoring of a sequence of nearly 100 bends on one dynamic meander river, combined with historical data and previous analyses of processes of change.

TL;DR: The role of flowers in the diversification and increased phenotypic disparity (phenotypic diversity) of angiosperms depends on the system as mentioned in this paper, and their capacity to have specialized functions, increase speciation rates or decrease extinction rates.
Abstract: Plant reproduction bymeans offlowershas long been thought topromote thesuccess and diversification of angiosperms. It remains unclear, however, how this success has come about. Do flowers, and their capacity to have specialized functions, increase speciation rates or decrease extinction rates? Is floral specialization fundamental or incidental to the diversification? Some studies suggest that the conclusions we draw about the role of flowers in the diversification and increased phenotypic disparity (phenotypic diversity) of angiosperms depends on the system. For orchids, for example, specialized pollination may have increased speciation rates, in part because in most orchids pollen is packed in discrete units so that pollination is precise enough to contribute to reproductive isolation. In most plants, however, granular pollen results in lowrealized pollination precision, and thus key innovations involvingflowers more likely reflect reduced extinction rates combined with opportunities for evolution of greater phenotypic disparity (phenotypic diversity) and occupation of new niches. Understanding the causes and consequences of the evolution of specialized flowers requires knowledge of both the selective regimes and the potential fitness trade-offs in using more than one pollinator functional group. The study of floral function and flowering-plant diversification remains a vibrant evolutionary field. Application of new methods, from measuring natural selection to estimating speciation rates, holds much promise for improving our understanding of the relationship between floral specialization and evolutionary success.
