Abstract	Two field trials (2017 and 2018) evaluated the performance of barley-pea mixed cropping by comparing different sowing densities (replacement design) and tailoring N fertilization on barley sowing density (split-plot design). High and Low N inputs were applied to whole plots whereas barley and pea, as pure and in mixed crops, were applied to subplots. The 2017 trial suggested the occurrence of an interaction between soil physical properties and N fertilization. Therefore, in 2018 a pedological survey allowed the soil effect to be included in the ANOVA model applied to evaluate crop performance parameters, showing that N fertilization positively affected barley performance only in the soil unit located downslope. A significantly lower presence of weeds was observed in mixed crops rather than in pea pure crops. Overall, increasing pea density and reducing barley density in mixed crops, and tailoring N fertilization were effective approaches to obtain a more balanced mixed grain at harvest. The combination of crop performance evaluation and assessments of soil conditions suggested that more sustainable agricultural systems, based on mixed cropping and a significant reduction of N fertilizers and herbicides, can be achieved with barley-pea mixed cropping as an alternative to pure cropping systems.

Abstract	The paper investigates the relationship between structural partner market constraints and the timing and educational sorting of unions in Germany (1985-2018). We integrate the literature on the effect of the reversed gender gap in education on educational assortative mating, with a focus on mating dynamics and the measurement of the partner market over the life course. We concentrate on two particular educational groups, low-educated men and highly educated women, those with worsening mating prospects and more subject to experience hypogamous unions. Our results show that the local education-specific mating squeeze influences union formation, its timing, and educational sorting. Indeed, for the two groups, the increasing supply of highly educated women in the partner market increases the likelihood of remaining single or establishing an hypogamous union, where she is higher educated than he. In line with search theory, we find the effects of the mating squeeze to become particularly visible after people turn 30 years of age. This is true for the risk of remaining single and forming an hypogamous union. We underline the necessity to study assortative mating and union formation from a dynamic perspective, taking into account changing structural conditions during the partner search process.

Abstract	The Late Pleistocene-Holocene Dilo-Dukana and Mega volcanic fields (Ririba rift, South Ethiopia) formed through monogenetic eruptions of limited volumes of alkaline-basalts, rich in mantle xenoliths. This activity postdated the emplacement of voluminous Pliocene subalkaline basaltic lavas related to the main rifting phase. Both volcanic fields display vent alignments that abruptly cut the rift-related features, suggestive of an emplacement after rift abandonment.We provide new petrological, geochemical and isotopic data on these still poorly studied products aimed at investigating the nature and temporal variation of the mantle source compared to the previous Pliocene activity, and the main differentiation processes. All data discriminate the younger alkaline lavas from the Pliocene products, indicating a variation of the mantle source during the two activities possibly related to the local rifting evolution. The Dilo-Dukana and Mega products overlap both in major, trace elements and radiogenic (Sr-Nd-Pb) isotopes. Well-defined trends, as displayed by incompatible trace elements and by major elements variations, indicate the prominent role of fractional crystallization driving magma differentiation, without evidence of shallow storage levels. No clear geochemical correlation is evident with respect to location, xenoliths content or eruptive style. Light-REEs roughly discriminate between the products erupted at Dilo-Dukana and Mega, pointing to possible variations in the degree of melting and/or crystallization conditions of different magma pulses in the two areas. These data indicate that the volcanic fields are fed by two different systems of deep structures, unrelated to rifting but associated to old inherited fabrics, directly transferring mantle melts to the surface.

Abstract	Rift-Rift-Rift triple junctions are regions where three plates interact, generating complex networks of variably oriented faults. While the geometry of the fault networks is easily constrained from their surface expression, what remains unclear is how the kinematics of faults and their interactions vary spatially, and how these relate to the unusual crustal motions that result from three plates diverging from each other. The Afar depression lies at the triple junction between the African, Arabian, and Somalian plates (in the Horn of Africa), where the unique combination of observational data from structural mapping, seismicity, and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) allows us to understand the link between fault kinematics and plate motions. We complement these observations with an analog model to gain insights into how the patterns and directions of faults relate to overall plate motions. A key finding in both the model and nature is that some adjacent normal faults form at high angles and generate T-shaped structures. These purely normal faults are synchronously active, which means that the extension direction varies ∼90° locally. These kinematic contrasts in our model and in nature occur despite the relatively smooth pattern of overall surface motions. The results indicate that normal faults interacting at high angles to form the T-shaped structures can evolve synchronously within a stress field that varies gently in magnitude but dramatically in orientation over a few kilometers.

Abstract	With the steady increase in the precision of flavour physics measurements collected during LHC Run 2, the LHCb experiment requires simulated data samples of larger and larger sizes to study the detector response in detail. The simulation of the detector response is the main contribution to the time needed to simulate full events. This time scales linearly with the particle multiplicity. Of the dozens of particles present in the simulation only the few participating in the signal decay under study are of interest, while all remaining particles mainly affect the resolutions and efficiencies of the detector. This paper presents a novel development for the LHCb simulation software which re-uses the rest of the event from previously simulated events. This approach achieves an order of magnitude increase in speed and the same quality compared to the nominal simulation.

Abstract	This data set includes images and videos depicting the evolution of deformation and topography in 17 analogue experiments of passive margin development, to better understand the ongoing tec-tonics along the western margin of Afar, East Africa. The tectonic background that forms the basis for the experimental design is described in Zwaan et al. 2020a-d, and references therein. The ex-periments, in an enhanced gravity field in a large-capacity centrifuge, examined the influence of brittle layer thickness, strength contrast, syn-rift sedimentation and oblique extension on a brittle-viscous system with a strong and weak viscous domain. All experiments were performed at the Tectonic Modelling Laboratory of the Istituto di Geoscience e Georisorse - Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR-IGG) and of the Earth Sciences Department of the University of Florence (CNR/UF). The brittle layer (sand) thickness ranged between 6 and 20 mm, the underlying viscous layer, split in a competent and weak domain (both viscous mixtures), was always 10 mm thick. Asymmetric extension was achieved by removing a 1.5 mm thick spacer at the side of the model at every time step, allowing the analogue materials to spread when en-hanced gravity was applied during a centrifuge run. Differential stretching of the viscous material creates flexure and faulting in the overlying brittle layer. Total extension amounted to 10.5 mm over 7 intervals for Series 1 models that aimed at un-derstanding generic passive margin development in a generic orthogonal extension setting, where-as up to 16.5 mm of extension was applied for the additional Series 2 models aiming to reproduce the tectonic phases in Afar. In models involving sedimentation, sand was filled in at time steps 2, 4 and 6 (i.e. after 3, 6 and 9 mm of extension). Detailed descriptions of the experiments, monitoring techniques and tectonic interpretation of the model results are presented in Zwaan et al. (2020a).

Abstract	The Afar region in East Africa is a key locality for studying continental break-up. Within Afar, passive margins are developing, of which the Southern Afar Margin (SAM) contains synthetic (basinward) faulting, whereas crustal flexure, antithetic faulting and marginal grabens occur along the Western Afar Margin (WAM). Numerous conflicting scenarios for the evolution of the WAM exist. In this analogue modelling study we test various factors that may affect the development of a WAM-style passive margin: brittle crustal thickness, (en echelon) rheological contrasts, sedimentation and oblique extension. Our experimental results illustrate how marginal flexure due to a weak lower crust below Afar can elegantly account for the structural features of the WAM. Brittle crustal thickness controls what structures occur: a thinner brittle crust accommodates flexure internally, whereas increasing brittle thicknesses lead to faulting. Large escarpment faults develop early on, followed by late-stage antithetic faulting and marginal grabens. A thicker brittle crust also causes enhanced subsidence, and increased strength contrasts between lower crustal domains leads to more localized deformation. Basin-wide sedimentation causes enhanced subsidence, as well as longer activity along large synthetic (escarpment) faults. Finally, oblique extension clearly prevents the development of marginal grabens, which only form in near-orthogonal extension. These results support a tectonic scenario involving initial oblique extension due to Arabian plate motion, creating echelon synthetic escarpment faults along the WAM. After the Danakil Block started its independent rotation, near-orthogonal extension conditions were established, allowing (enhanced) marginal flexure, antithetic faulting and marginal graben formation along the older en echelon escarpment. Differences in extension obliquity may also explain the differences in structural architectures between the WAM and SAM. The characteristics of the WAM are typical of magma-rich passive margins, and the margin has great potential for studying continental break-up and (magma-rich) passive margin formation.

Abstract	The Afar region represents a unique opportunity for the study of ongoing rift development and the various phases of continental break-up. In this work we discuss the geological and geomorphological characteristics of the Western Afar Margin (WAM) and the various scenarios proposed for its evolution. A drastic decline in topography and crustal thickness from the Ethiopian Plateau into the Afar Depression, as well as a series of marginal grabens and a general presence of antithetic faulting characterize the WAM. Present-day extension is mostly accommodated at the rift axis in Afar, yet the margin is still undergoing significant deformation. Models for the evolution of the WAM involve either isostatic loading effects due to erosion, rifting-induced block rollover, large-scale detachment fault development or crustal flexure due to lithospheric stretching or magmatic loading. This wide variation of potential mechanisms for WAM development may reflect a general structural variation along the margin and in Afar, involving different stages of rift formation and possibly indicating two distinct pathways leading to continental break-up. In order to better understand the rifting mechanisms and to fully exploit the research potential of the region, further assessment of the WAM and its relation to Afar will be necessary. The findings of such future work, combined with data from rifts and passive margins from around the globe will be of great importance to assess the processes involved in continental breakup and to better constrain the sequence of events leading from initial rifting to break-up and oceanic spreading.
