  • Unicode Request for Cyrillic Modifier Letters Superscript Modifiers
    Unicode request for Cyrillic modifier letters L2/21-107 Kirk Miller, [email protected] 2021 June 07 This is a request for spacing superscript and subscript Cyrillic characters. It has been favorably reviewed by Sebastian Kempgen (University of Bamberg) and others at the Commission for Computer Supported Processing of Medieval Slavonic Manuscripts and Early Printed Books. Cyrillic-based phonetic transcription uses superscript modifier letters in a manner analogous to the IPA. This convention is widespread, found in both academic publication and standard dictionaries. Transcription of pronunciations into Cyrillic is the norm for monolingual dictionaries, and Cyrillic rather than IPA is often found in linguistic descriptions as well, as seen in the illustrations below for Slavic dialectology, Yugur (Yellow Uyghur) and Evenki. The Great Russian Encyclopedia states that Cyrillic notation is more common in Russian studies than is IPA (‘Transkripcija’, Bol’šaja rossijskaja ènciplopedija, Russian Ministry of Culture, 2005–2019). Unicode currently encodes only three modifier Cyrillic letters: U+A69C ⟨ꚜ⟩ and U+A69D ⟨ꚝ⟩, intended for descriptions of Baltic languages in Latin script but ubiquitous for Slavic languages in Cyrillic script, and U+1D78 ⟨ᵸ⟩, used for nasalized vowels, for example in descriptions of Chechen. The requested spacing modifier letters cannot be substituted by the encoded combining diacritics because (a) some authors contrast them, and (b) they themselves need to be able to take combining diacritics, including diacritics that go under the modifier letter, as in ⟨ᶟ̭̈⟩BA . (See next section and e.g. Figure 18. ) In addition, some linguists make a distinction between spacing superscript letters, used for phonetic detail as in the IPA tradition, and spacing subscript letters, used to denote phonological concepts such as archiphonemes.

    G. ARTHUR COOPER SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO PALEOBIOLOGY • NUMBER 65 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.' This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropotogy Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the h/larine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the worid. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

Its study reveals its homogeneity whereas its morphology is between two nominal and classical species of literature : Tornquistes tornquisti (de LorioL) and Tornquistes oxfordiense (tornquist). It appears that the features usually taken into account to establish specific denominations in this genus (whorl section thickness, strength and density of the ornamentation, widening of the umbilicus) are in fact manifestations of the laws of covariation of the characteristics, and the extreme morphologies are interrelated by all intermediaries. There is now no taxonomical reason not to consider all the nominal taxa described in the Plicatilis Biozone as a single paleobiological species : Tornquistes helvetiae (tornquist). On the other hand, the stratigraphic polarity of the position of the primary ribs point of bifurcation (which decreases through time) is a major evolutionary feature in Tornquistes. It now allows defining at least three, maybe four, successive chronospecies : (1) (?) Tornquistes greppini (de LorioL), (2) Tornquistes leckenbyi (ArkeLL), (3) Tornquistes helveticus (JeAnnet) and (4) Tornquistes helvetiae (tornquist). Finally, although Protophites eBrAy has often been regarded as a microconch, it is clearly not the one of Tornquistes. The oldest species of Protophites now recognized is Protophites chapuisi (de LorioL) at the top of the Mariae Biozone (Praecordatum Subzone).

  • Occurrences, Age and Paleobiogeography of Rare Genera Phlycticeras and Pachyerymnoceras from South Tethys
    N. Jb. Geol. Paläont. Abh. 283/2 (2017), 119–149 Article E Stuttgart, February 2017 Occurrences, age and paleobiogeography of rare genera Phlycticeras and Pachyerymnoceras from South Tethys Sreepat Jain With 24 figures Abstract: New data on two rare genera (Phlycticeras and Pachyerymnoceras) from the Callovian (Middle Jurassic) sediments of Kachchh, western India are presented with an update on their South Tethyan occurrences. This paper documents the earliest occurrence of the genus Phlycticeras from the entire south of Tethys (P. polygonium var. polygonium [M]) from latest Early Callovian sediments (= Proximum Subzone, Gracilis Zone). Further, in light of the new taxonomic data, the previously recorded early Middle Callovian P. gr. pustulatum [M] is reevaluated as also all other Phlycticeras occurrences from the Indian subcontinent. Data suggests that in Kachchh, Phlycticeras has a long range from the latest Early to Late Callovian interval. Additionally, two new macroconch species of Pachyerymnoceras are also described and illustrated from Late Callovian sediments. A critical review of previous records suggests that in Kachchh, Pachyerymnoceras is restricted to the Submediterranean interval of the Collotiformis-Poculum subzones of the Athleta Zone. A note on the paleobiogeography and probable migratory routes of these two genera to India and elsewhere is also suggested. Key words: Kachchh, Middle Jurassic, Late Callovian, Pachyerymnoceras, Phlycticeras. 1.

  • Paleontological Contributions
    THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS PALEONTOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS May 15, 1970 Paper 47 SIGNIFICANCE OF SUTURES IN PHYLOGENY OF AMMONOIDEA JURGEN KULLMANN AND JOST WIEDMANN Universinit Tubingen, Germany ABSTRACT Because of their complex structure ammonoid sutures offer best possibilities for the recognition of homologies. Sutures comprise a set of individual elements, which may be changed during the course of ontogeny and phylogeny as a result of heterotopy, hetero- morphy, and heterochrony. By means of a morphogenetic symbol terminology, sutural formulas may be established which show the composition of adult sutures as well as their ontogenetic development. WEDEKIND ' S terminology system is preferred because it is the oldest and morphogenetically the most consequent, whereas RUZHENTSEV ' S system seems to be inadequate because of its usage of different symbols for homologous elements. WEDEKIND ' S system includes only five symbols: E (for external lobe), L (for lateral lobe), I (for internal lobe), A (for adventitious lobe), U (for umbilical lobe). Investigations on ontogenetic development show that all taxonomic groups of the entire superorder Ammonoidea can be compared one with another by means of their sutural development, expressed by their sutural formulas. Most of the higher and many of the lower taxa can be solely characterized and arranged in phylogenetic relationship by use of their sutural formulas. INTRODUCTION Today very few ammonoid workers doubt the (e.g., conch shape, sculpture, growth lines) rep- importance of sutures as indication of ammonoid resent less complicated structures; therefore, phylogeny. The considerable advances in our numerous homeomorphs restrict the usefulness of knowledge of ammonoid evolution during recent these features for phylogenetic investigations.

  • The Movement Toward a Monolingual Nation in Russia: the Language Policy in the Circassian Republics of the Northern Caucasus
    Journal of Caucasian Studies (JOCAS) / Kafkasya Çalışmaları - Sosyal Bilimler Dergisi September / Eylül 2015, Yıl / Vol. 1, № 1 ISSN 2149–9527 (print / basılı) ISSN 2149–9101 (online / çevrimiçi) The Movement Toward a Monolingual Nation in Russia: The Language Policy in the Circassian Republics of the Northern Caucasus Sufian Zhemukhov * Şener Aktürk ** Abstract In the context of an institutionalized multi-nationalist ideology, the language policy in Russia is based on the distinction of the native language of the Russian people and the languages of all other non- Russians. Such a distinction is reflected in ‘the Constitution of the Russian Federation,’ federal and regional laws and policy practices that have given advantage to Russian over the other titular languages of the indigenous people in the Russian Federation. This article charts the grand ‘shift’ in Russian state policy toward ethnic diversity. The Soviet- era multinational Leninist/Stalinist approach summarized in the slogan "druzhba narodov" (friendship of peoples) shifted toward a more assimilationist nation-building model. Such ideology reduces the ethnic diversity into just a cultural, folkloric feature of an otherwise monolingual, mono-cultural nation-state. What is the purpose of this discriminatory ethnic and language policy? Our case study of Circassians, one of the ethnic groups in the North Caucasus, demonstrates that, after many decades, such a policy has only caused political and cultural damages to all sides and alienation between them. On the one hand, the assimilationist language policy continues to cause problems with the non-Russian ethnic groups adding to the major challenges that the Russian state faces today. On the other hand, non-Russian ethnic groups, though not yet assimilated into the Russian culture, have undergone significant decrease in terms of their rights to develop their languages.

  • Ammonoid Intraspecific Variability
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2015 Ammonoid Intraspecific Variability De Baets, Kenneth ; Bert, Didier ; Hoffmann, René ; Monnet, Claude ; Yacobucci, Margaret M;Klug, Christian Abstract: Because ammonoids have never been observed swimming, there is no alternative to seeking indirect indications of the locomotory abilities of ammonoids. This approach is based on actualistic com- parisons with the closest relatives of ammonoids, the Coleoidea and the Nautilida, and on the geometrical and physical properties of the shell. Anatomical comparison yields information on the locomotor muscu- lar systems and organs as well as possible modes of propulsion while the shape and physics of ammonoid shells provide information on buoyancy, shell orientation, drag, added mass, cost of transportation and thus on limits of acceleration and swimming speed. On these grounds, we conclude that ammonoid swim- ming is comparable to that of Recent nautilids and sepiids in terms of speed and energy consumption, although some ammonoids might have been slower swimmers than nautilids.
