This is the second of three volumes which comprise Khvandemīr's well known and important general history, completed in 929/1523, which spans the creation of the world up to the death of Shah Ismāʻīl Safavī I. The work includes particularly detailed information about Herat under Sultan Husayn Bayqara, the last Timurid ruler in Herat, as well as Shah Ismāʻīl and Bābur's life. This work has been published in both Persian and English editions.

Verbal contents of repetitions in Swedish child-directed speech

Repetitions in child-directed speech (CDS) have been shown to vary over time, and are suggested to affect first language acquisition. Correlations between verbal contents of repetitions in CDS and children’s language development have been suggested. The verbal contents of repetitions in Swedish CDS have not yet been investigated. The aim of this study was to examine the verbal contents of repetitions in Swedish CDS during the child’s first 2 years and possible changes in proportions of repetitions during the same time span. Verbal contents of repetitions in parents’ speech in 10 parent-child dyads as the children were 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months old were investigated focusing on word classes, sentence types and whole-constituent change. The results were compared to the children’s productive vocabularies at the age of 30 months. Possible occurrences of item-based constructions and frequent frames in the repetitions were also examined. The overall results revealed patterns concerning change in verbal contents in repetitions over time and correlations between verbal contents in repetitions and child language development. Two proposals were made: parents adjust the complexity of their speech to linguistic developmental stages of their children, and linguistic variation in the input increases as the child grows older.

The Ledgewood-Bonair Landslide toe and where did it go? A case study in littoral sediment budgets from a deep-seated landslide in Island County, Washington

On the morning of March 27th, 2013, a small portion of a much larger landslide complex failed on the western shoreline of central Whidbey Island, Island County, Washington. This landslide, known as the Ledgewood-Bonair Landslide (LB Landslide), mobilized as much as 150,000 cubic meters of unconsolidated glacial sediment onto the coastline of the Puget Sound (Slaughter et al., 2013, Geotechnical Engineering Services, 2013). This study aims to determine how sediment from the Ledgewood-Bonair Landslide has acted on the adjacent beaches 400 meters to the north and south, and specifically to evaluate the volume of sediment contributed by the slide to adjacent beaches, how persistent bluff-derived accretion has been on adjacent beaches, and how intertidal grain sizes changed as a result of the bluff-derived sediment, LiDAR imagery from 2013 and 2014 were differenced and compared to beach profile data and grain size photography. Volume change results indicate that of the 41,850 cubic meters of sediment eroded at the toe of the landslide, 8.9 percent was redeposited on adjacent beaches within 1 year of the landslide. Of this 8.9 percent, 6.3 percent ended up on the north beach and 2.6 percent ended up on the south beach. Because the landslide deposit was primarily sands, silts, and clays, it is reasonable to assume that the remaining 91.1 percent of the sediment eroded from the landslide toe was carried out into the waters of the Puget Sound. Over the course of the two-year study, measurable accretion is apparent up to 150 meters north and 100 meters south of the landslide complex. Profile data also suggests that the most significant elevation changes occurred within the first two and half months since the landslides occurrence. The dominant surficial grain size of the beach soon after the landslide was coarse-sand; in the years following the landslide, 150 meters north of the toe the beach sediment became finer while 100 meters south of the toe the beach sediment became coarser. Overall, the LB Landslide has affected beach profile and grain size only locally, within 150 meters of the landslide toe.

Evolution of the regular zone of histone H1 in Fabaceae plants

An analysis of the historic H1 subtype, H1-1, in eight legumes belonging to four genera of the tribe Vicieae (Pisum, Lathyrus, Lens, and Vicia), revealed an extended region consisting of the tandemly repeated AKPAAK motifs. We named this region the Regular zone (RZ). The AKPAAK motifs are organized into two blocks separated by a short (two or six amino acids) intervening sequence (IS). The distal block contains six AKPAAK motifs, while the number of repeats in the proximal block varies from six in V. faba to seven in the other species. In V. hirsuta, the first two repeated units of the proximal block are octapeptides AKAKPAAK. The apparent rate of synonymous substitutions in the blocks of RZ is much higher than in the rest of the gene. This can be explained by repeat shuffling within each block. In the C-domain of the orthologous H1 subtype froth Medicago truncatula (tribe Trifolieae), a region corresponding to the RZ of Vicieae species was found. It also consists of two blocks of AKPAAK motifs (four and three repeats in the proximal and distal blocks, respectively). These blocks are separated by a 20-amino acid IS. The first 20 amino acids of the Medicago RZ are not part of AKPAAK repeats. We hypothesise that the RZ has most probably evolved as a result of an expansion of AKPAAK repeats from two separate sites in the C-domain. This process started tens of millions of years ago and was most likely directed by positive selection.
