(The Rock, TS. Elliot) dedicated to: Nana Supriana, for introducing the fun of being curious Ruspita, for demonstrating with ease perseverance and compromise Yusef, for teaching me the meaning of patience and love Acknowledgements The completion of my dissertation has been a long journey and full of exciting adventures and profound learning. Nevertheless, I am elated that it finally comes to an end. What made this PhD possible were the numerous mentors I gained as I travelled through the PhD journey. Mentors come in all shapes and sizes, from supervisors and colleagues, to friends and family to strangers I met on my travels from Bogor to Stuttgart. First, I would like to thank my supervisors: Prof. Georg Cadisch at Institute 380a, Hohenheim and Dr. Meine van Noordwijk at ICRAF, Bogor for their supervision, mentorship and friendship. I am very grateful for having the perfect combination in supervision. Pak Meine, you showed me that scientific ideas have no boundary. Thank you for encouraging me to run, walk and (often) crawl in exciting research pathways. Georg, you helped me to be practical, pragmatic and to carefully and realistically choose what is doable. Thank you for always ensuring that I toe the correct line towards Phd-submission. I immensely appreciated both of you for your unbounded support and faith in me and for your unfailing advice, encouragement and patience. I also extend my gratitude to the staffs at Soil Science Department, Brawijaya University, Indonesia for their warmth and generosity during my field work in Kali Konto, in particular, to Prof. Kurniatun Hairiah (Cho), Iva and Nina. Dr. Thomas Hilger and Dr. Carsten Marohn helped me started in Stuttgart and got me through the administration maze. Gabriele Kircher provided efficient support for the project administration in Germany. I very much appreciated your professional and friendly help. I would also like to thank Dr. Gerd Dercon. Although I never had the honour of working together, Gerd’s infectious enthusiasm while discussing research opportunity in Aceh had rekindled my dream to pursue PhD. With the encouragement and help of Dr. Sonya Dewi, I developed my first PhD proposal. I did not succeed in getting the scholarship, but the experience had revived my old and almost buried dream. Thank you to both of you! Mbak Sonya, with her unsurpassed knowledge of quantitative analysis, continued on providing me with ideas and practical advice during my PhD study. Together with Lei and Atiek, the three of you had generously shared not only your professional knowledge, but also ‘entertaining’ knowledge that had made the PhD journey less lonely. A special ‘thank you’ to my modelling comrade, Desi Suyamto, for his patience in teaching me PC- Raster and introducing me to the amazing world of FALLOW and even more amazing world of ‘Desi-cion Making’. To the Phd students (most are ex-students by now) in Hohenheim, Petra, Juan Cobo, Juan Laso, Mingrelia, Juni, Irene, Scott, Thanh, Melvin, thank you very much for making Hohenheim my second home. I already missed very much the Garbe fest. Thank you also to Bruno, who introduced me to German culinary and landscape and to Simone, i who generously provided me with a transit shelter in between my Bogor-Hohenheim trips. And of course, thank you to my Indonesian family in Hohenheim, the ‘trio bebek’ Ratna, Iin and Dilla. I enjoyed our bizarre meetings and outings that had made Hohenheim much more sunny and warm. To Iwan & Wiwiek, Wahyu & Radix and Irene, thank you for sharing your flat! I extend a very special thank you to Melvin who translated the summary of my dissertation to German. I definitely would not be able to submit without your help! Deep appreciation to Lei, who kindly and creatively draw a picture for the cover of my dissertation. And to Tikah and Sadewa for working on the overall layout of the printed dissertation. I acknowledged the contributions of my friend and colleagues at ICRAF. Thank you to Diah and Vony for the friendly and efficient support in project administration. Thoha and Andree gave me a crash course on GIS and RS and shared their tricks and tips in person and through ym-chat. Degi, Avni, Mbak Yayuk and Ni’ma provided immense support in crunching carbon data. Novi tirelessly helped me during the field work in Kali Konto. I very much appreciated your help and support! To many cheerleaders at ICRAF, including the alumni of ICRAF: Tikah, Neno, Josephine, QQ, Ija, Pak Laxman and many others I may have missed out to mention, you have all contributed in many ways during my study. I am dedicating my work to my father who introduced the word ‘Dr’, as an ambition and dream worth striving for. Above all, my deepest gratitude is due to the two people who had been instrumental for the success of my study. To my strong, spirited mother for her unconditional logistical and emotional support that made me confident I can reach the stars, if I want to. And to my generous and kind husband, Yusef, for his quiet encouragement and his infectious calmness that can ‘tame’ any coming storms. Finally, I am grateful to the lovely, courageous and patient Angga, Puspa and Bagja for their never-ending caring and cheering. Last but not least, I would also like to acknowledge the support from BMZ, Germany for my PhD scholarship. The scholarship allowed me to pursue my research interest in enhancing acceptance and use of simulation model for natural resource management. Any errors or inadequacies that may remain in this work is entirely my own. ii Table of contents Acknowledgements ...............................................................................................i List of abbreviations ..........................................................................................viii 1 General Introduction .....................................................................................2 1.1 Foreword .............................................................................................2 1.2 Natural resource management: Challenges to date ..................................2 1.3 Modelling approaches for natural resource management ..........................3 1.4 Challenges

  • Qualia NICHOLAS HARKNESS Harvard University, USA
    Qualia NICHOLAS HARKNESS Harvard University, USA Qualia (singular, quale) are cultural emergents that manifest phenomenally as sensuous features or qualities. The anthropological challenge presented by qualia is to theorize elements of experience that are semiotically generated but apperceived as non-signs. Qualia are not reducible to a psychology of individual perceptions of sensory data, to a cultural ontology of “materiality,” or to philosophical intuitions about the subjective properties of consciousness. The analytical solution to the challenge of qualia is to con- sider tone in relation to the familiar linguistic anthropological categories of token and type. This solution has been made methodologically practical by conceptualizing qualia, in Peircean terms, as “facts of firstness” or firstness “under its form of secondness.” Inthephilosophyofmind,theterm“qualia”hasbeenusedtodescribetheineffable, intrinsic, private, and directly or immediately apprehensible experiences of “the way things seem,” which have been taken to constitute the atomic subjective properties of consciousness. This concept was challenged in an influential paper by Daniel Dennett, who argued that qualia “is a philosophers’ term which fosters nothing but confusion, and refers in the end to no properties or features at all” (Dennett 1988, 387). Dennett concluded, correctly, that these diverse elements of feeling, made sensuously present atvariouslevelsofattention,wereactuallyidiosyncraticresponsestoapperceptions of “public, relational” qualities.

  • Salience, Focus and Second Language Acquisition S.E
    Salience, Focus and Second Language Acquisition S.E. Carroll & Christine Shea Department of Linguistics University of Calgary [email protected] Abstract In the literature on second language acquisition, salience is assumed to automatically render input available for processing. The precise nature of “salience” is rarely clarified; it is simply assumed that prosodic constructs such as focal accent or stress are universally perceptually salient. We examined this relationship between intrinsic salience and second language learning by using focal accent to highlight familiar and unfamiliar lexical items in sentences presented to adult second language learners. If learners perceive unfamiliar focally accented words as perceptually salient, they will recognize them with greater accuracy than items without focal accent. 1. Introduction The research reported on here is part of a larger program examining the complex relationships between input, language processing and second language acquisition. It investigates the commonplace assumption in second language acquisition research that parts of the signal are inherently more prominent or salient than others and that a learner’s attention during speech processing will necessarily be drawn to those prominent parts of the input. In other words, the learner will be better able to process (i.e., analyze faster and with more accuracy) the parts of the signal that are marked in ways which result in perceptual salience, to the detriment of those which are not so marked. Upon close examination, however, many of the common claims regarding input do not stand up to scrutiny. Specifically, perceptual salience is not an objective, acoustic property of the speech signal. Instead, salience is a perceptual effect resulting from speech perception and language processing.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.7202/1027775ar Schilling-Estes 1998). I examine how speakers “voice” and comment on vocalic variation by employing interrelated modes of metapragmatic typification, including eye-dialect spelling, (explicit) metapragmatic discourse, constructed See table of contents dialogue (Tannen 1989), and parodic double-voicing (Bakhtin 1981; Sclafani 2009). These strategies prove indispensable to the metapragmatic framing of phono-indexicals because most phonetic features in speech become objects of Publisher(s) metasemiotic activity by virtue of their realization in specific words and salient texts, which in turn serve as sign vehicles for vocalic variables and other Association canadienne de sémiotique / Canadian Semiotic Association “semiotic hitchhikers” (Mendoza-Denton 2011). Accordingly, our capacity to reflexively model the pragmatics of sociophonotic variables derives in large ISSN part from our ability

    Charles Sanders Peirce - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia 9/2/10 4:55 PM Charles Sanders Peirce From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Charles Sanders Peirce (pronounced /ˈpɜrs/ purse[1]) Charles Sanders Peirce (September 10, 1839 – April 19, 1914) was an American philosopher, logician, mathematician, and scientist, born in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Peirce was educated as a chemist and employed as a scientist for 30 years. It is largely his contributions to logic, mathematics, philosophy, and semiotics (and his founding of pragmatism) that are appreciated today. In 1934, the philosopher Paul Weiss called Peirce "the most original and versatile of American philosophers and America's greatest logician".[2] An innovator in many fields (including philosophy of science, epistemology, metaphysics, mathematics, statistics, research methodology, and the design of experiments in astronomy, geophysics, and psychology) Peirce considered himself a logician first and foremost. He made major contributions to logic, but logic for him encompassed much of that which is now called epistemology and philosophy of science. He saw logic as the Charles Sanders Peirce formal branch of semiotics, of which he is a founder. As early as 1886 he saw that logical operations could be carried out by Born September 10, 1839 electrical switching circuits, an idea used decades later to Cambridge, Massachusetts produce digital computers.[3] Died April 19, 1914 (aged 74) Milford, Pennsylvania Contents Nationality American 1 Life Fields Logic, Mathematics, 1.1 United States Coast Survey Statistics, Philosophy, 1.2 Johns Hopkins University Metrology, Chemistry 1.3 Poverty Religious Episcopal but 2 Reception 3 Works stance unconventional 4 Mathematics 4.1 Mathematics of logic C.
