Internal structures of both species were visualised and quantified using micro-computed tomographic (micro-CT) methods. Cellaria bafouri n. sp. is characterised by the arrangement of zooids in alternating longitudinal rows, a smooth cryptocyst, and the presence of an ooecial plate with denticles. Smittina imragueni n. sp. exhibits many similarities with Smittina cervicornis (Pallas, 1766), but differs especially in the shape and orientation of the suboral avicularium. Observations on Smittina imragueni and material labelled as Smittina cervicornis suggest that the latter represents a species group, members of which have not yet been discriminated, possibly because of high intracolony variation and marked astogenetic changes in surface morphology. Both new species are known only from the habitats where they were collected, probably reflecting the paucity of bryozoan sampling from this geographic area and depth range. Both species are able to tolerate low oxygen concentration, which is assumed to be compensated by the high nutrient supply off Mauritania. The application of micro-CT for the semiautomatic quantification of zooidal skeletal characters was successfully tested. We were able to automatically distinguish individual zooidal cavities and acquire corresponding morphological datasets. Comparing the obtained results with conventional SEM measurements allowed ascertaining the reliability of this new method. The employment of micro-CT allows the observation and quantification of previously un- seen characters that can be used in describing and differentiating species that were previously indistinguishable. Further- more, this method might help elucidate processes of colony growth and the function of individual zooids during this process.}, language = {en} } @article{TitschackBaumDePolHolzetal.2015, author = {Titschack, J{\"u}rgen and Baum, Daniel and De Pol-Holz, Ricardo and L{\´o}pez Correa, Matthias and Forster, Nina and Fl{\"o}gel, Sascha and Hebbeln, Dierk and Freiwald, Andr{\´e}}, title = {Aggradation and carbonate accumulation of Holocene Norwegian cold-water coral reefs}, volume = {62}, journal = {Sedimentology}, number = {7}, publisher = {Wiley}, doi = {10.1111/sed.12206}, pages = {1873 -- 1898}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @misc{LindowBaumHege2014, author = {Lindow, Norbert and Baum, Daniel and Hege, Hans-Christian}, title = {Ligand Excluded Surface: A New Type of Molecular Surface}, issn = {1438-0064}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-51194}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The most popular molecular surface in molecular visualization is the solvent excluded surface (SES).

This reduces the efficiency of the BHJ design process, since it misses critical information about the local performance bottlenecks in the morphology of the material. In this paper, we propose a novel framework that fills this gap through visual charac- terization and exploration of local structure-performance correlations. We propose a new formula that correlates the structural features to the performance bottlenecks. Since research into BHJ materials is highly multidisci- plinary, we enable a visual feedback strategy that allows the scientists to build intuition about the best choices of fabrication parameters. We evaluate the usefulness of our proposed system by obtaining new BHJ characteri- zations.

Many techniques, such as light and electron microscopy generate two-dimensional (2D) images, while micro computed tomography (μCT) allows a direct representation of the three-dimensional (3D) structure. In addition, different methods provide complementary structural information, such as the arrangement of organic or inorganic compounds. The overall aim of the present study is to answer bone research questions by linking information of different 2D and 3D imaging techniques. A great challenge in combining different methods arises from the fact that they usually reflect different characteristics of the real structure. Materials and Methods: We investigated bone during healing by means of μCT and a couple of 2D methods. Backscattered electron images were used to qualitatively evaluate the tissue's calcium content and served as a position map for other experimental data. Nanoindentation and X-ray scattering experiments were performed to visualize mechanical and structural properties. Results: We present an approach for the registration of 2D data in a 3D μCT reference frame, where scanning electron microscopies serve as a methodic link. Backscattered electron images are perfectly suited for registration into μCT reference frames, since both show structures based on the same physical principles. We introduce specific registration tools that have been developed to perform the registration process in a semi-automatic way. Conclusions: By applying this routine, we were able to exactly locate structural information (e.g. mineral particle properties) in the 3D bone volume. In bone healing studies this will help to better understand basic formation, remodeling and mineralization processes.}, language = {en} } @article{HoerthBaumKnoeteletal.2015, author = {Hoerth, Rebecca M. and Baum, Daniel and Kn{\"o}tel, David and Prohaska, Steffen and Willie, Bettina M. and Duda, Georg and Hege, Hans-Christian and Fratzl, Peter and Wagermaier, Wolfgang}, title = {Registering 2D and 3D Imaging Data of Bone during Healing}, volume = {56}, journal = {Connective Tissue Research}, number = {2}, publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}, doi = {10.3109/03008207.2015.1005210}, pages = {133 -- 143}, year = {2015}, language = {en} } @article{CourniaAllenAndricioaeietal.2015, author = {Cournia, Zoe and Allen, Toby W. and Andricioaei, Ioan and Antonny, Bruno and Baum, Daniel and Brannigan, Grace and Buchete, Nicolae-Viorel and Deckman, Jason T. and Delemotte, Lucie and del Val, Coral and Friedman, Ran and Gkeka, Paraskevi and Hege, Hans-Christian and H{\´e}nin, J{\´e}r{\^o}me and Kasimova, Marina A. and Kolocouris, Antonios and Klein, Michael L. and Khalid, Syma and Lemieux, Joanne and Lindow, Norbert and Roy, Mahua and Selent, Jana and Tarek, Mounir and Tofoleanu, Florentina and Vanni, Stefano and Urban, Sinisa and Wales, David J. and Smith, Jeremy C. and Bondar, Ana-Nicoleta}, title = {Membrane Protein Structure, Function and Dynamics: A Perspective from Experiments and Theory}, volume = {248}, journal = {Journal of Membrane Biology}, number = {4}, doi = {10.1007/s00232-015-9802-0}, pages = {611 -- 640}, year = {2015}, language = {en} }
