Abstract:
The papers in this Special Section present the latest results of research into the waterlogged later prehistoric site at Flag Fen, Peterborough. The landscape is almost flat and very low-lying, and the archaeological site consists of two main elements: a man-made timber platform and a kilometre-long alignment of posts, interpreted here as a defensive palisade. The site also has an important ritual component that continued into the Iron Age. Dendrochronology and other evidence indicates that the platform and posts were used for some 400 years, between about 1350 and 950 BC. This was a period of increasing wetness in the region.

Abstract:
An analysis of weekly air samples at four sites in southern Ontario (London, Toronto, Peterborough, Sudbury) provides conclusive evidence for the long-distance transport of pollen of the exotic taxa Entada (Mimosaceae), Dodonaea (Sapindaceae), and Ephedra (Ephedraceae), originating far to the south (at least 1000 km) of the recording stations. The nearest source area for the first two taxa is in the West Indies and Mexico, while Ephedra, previously noted in Late Quaternary sediments from the Great Lakes region, grows commonly in the southwestern region of the United States. Long-distance transport is corroborated by air-mass trajectory analysis and surface-wind patterns at time of exotic occurrences. Key words: aeropalynology, Ontario, airstreams, pollen transport.

Abstract:
Abstract We studied the impacts of low density, exurban housing developments on Wood Thrushes (Hylocichla mustelina) breeding in small forest fragments in two regions of rural southern Ontario. In both regions, Wood Thrushes breeding in woodlots with embedded houses (housing penetrating the forest border) experienced significantly higher rates of parasitism by Brown-headed Cowbirds (Molothrus ater) than Wood Thrushes breeding in woodlots with adjacent houses (houses within 100 m of the forest edge), or undeveloped woodlots (no houses within 100 m of the forest edge). Wood Thrushes breeding in Peterborough area woodlots with embedded or adjacent houses experienced significantly increased rates of nest predation compared to Wood Thrushes breeding in undeveloped woodlots. This increased nest predation resulted in significant reductions in seasonal productivity in developed woodlots. No increase in nest predation was experienced by Wood Thrushes nesting in developed woodlots in the Ottawa region. The effects of housing developments appear to be region-specific and may depend on other factors influencing the overall abundance of cowbirds. Impactos de la Construcción de Viviendas en el Éxito de Nidificación de Hylocichla mustelina en Fragmentos de Bosque Resumen. Estudiamos los impactos de la construcción en baja densidad de viviendas peri-urbanas sobre individuos de Hylocichla mustelina que se encontraron criando en fragmentos pequeños de bosque en dos regiones rurales del sur de Ontario. En ambas regiones, los individuos de H. mustelina que se reprodujeron en bosques donde había casas inmersas (que penetraban el borde del bosque) experimentaron tasas de parasitismo por Molothrus ater significativamente mayores que los individuos criando en bosques con casas adyacentes (dispuestas a menos de 100 m del borde del bosque), o en bosques no alterados por la presencia de casas (a más de 100 m del borde del bosque). Los individuos de H. mustelina que se encontraron criando en áreas boscosas de Peterborough, donde las casas estaban adentro o adyacentes al bosque, experimentaron incrementos significativos en las tasas de depredación de nidos comparados con individuos que criaron en bosques no alterados. Este incremento en la depredación de nidos llevó a reducciones significativas en la productividad estacional en los bosques con viviendas. No registramos un incremento en la depredación de nidos de H. mustelina en bosques con viviendas en la región de Ottawa. Los efectos de la construcción de viviendas parecen estar relacionados de modo específico con la región y podrían depender de otros factores que influencian la abundancia de M. ater.

Abstract:
Regionalism in a Global Society: Persistence and Change in Atlantic Canada and New England, Stephen G. Tomblin and Charles S. Colgan, eds., Peterborough: Broadview Press, 2004, pp. 333Perceived economic globalization and Europe's progressive supranationalism have inspired a regional politics growth industry, centred on Europe, which addresses how regions increasingly form and operate trans-border institutions. Defining regionalism as the creation of new partnerships or regions across jurisdictions, Memorial University's Stephen Tomblin describes this book's thirteen essays, divided almost evenly between Canadian and American scholars, as an effort to overcome the lack of substantial research on North America's cross-border regions (8). The book will satisfy most readers seeking an update on the slowly growing regional initiatives inside the Atlantic region (only sometimes including Newfoundland) and the states of New England. But as the book's contributors make clear, for all the ever-increasing trans-border truck crossings and energy sales, most recently for Sable Island gas, institutional cooperation between these provinces and states remains limited.

Abstract:
Evaluation of Early Cretaceous source rocks within the onshore Victoria Otway Basin has revealed that thick, mature shales containing predominantly gas-prone and in local concentrations, oil-prone macerals exist northwest of Portland, in the Tyrendarra Embayment, and around the Port Campbell region.Current results of Rock-Eval, bulk composition, gas chromatography, and biomarker analyses, coupled with geohistory and hydrocarbon generation interpretations, indicate that at least three phases of oil generation and expulsion occurred within the basin. The earliest phase, which coincided with the maximum heatflow in the crust around 100 Ma, resulted in the charging of the existing stratigraphic/shoestring traps of the basin. The second and third phases occurred in the eastern end of the basin at around 85 and 60 Ma. There is also evidence to suggest that structural traps of the eastern areas were formed later, during Oligocene time, and that these traps are probably still receiving late-stage charges of hydrocarbons.Although the sparse well density in the basin has resulted in limited, non-uniforin sampling opportunities, several regions with good Early Cretaceous source rocks can be recognised. Some of these good source rock areas are in close proximity to the several known hydrocarbon shows and producing fields. These current studies, which also include a source rock risk analysis indicating source rock adequacy, show that locations for future exploration could include the Casterton-Portland-Mt Gambier western region, the Peterborough-Port Campbell eastern region, and the prospective close peripheries and offshore extensions of these regions.

Abstract:
Older people, especially those living with dementia, experience significant barriers to meaningful participation in their communities. Focusing on the expansion of an arts-based program to address social inclusion for older people via information communication technology (ICT), this paper identifies the challenges and opportunities of the digital delivery of the Baycrest NBS Sharing Dance Seniors program, a weekly dance class professionally instructed via online-streamed video and facilitated in-person in community and institutional care settings. Findings are drawn from older people and career experiences in community-based, multi-method pilot studies in the Peterborough Region, Ontario, and the Westman Region, Manitoba (2017-19) Canada. Through observations, diaries, focus groups, and interviews featuring the experiences of program instructors, participants, carers, administrators, facilitators, and volunteers, the challenges and opportunities presented by the digital delivery of the Sharing Dance program are analyzed as they relate to understanding social connectivity and relational and multi-dimensional influences on social inclusion. Findings point to the key role of facilitators and in-person support, with implications for the development of social resources and facilitator training in community and institutional settings.

Abstract:
AimsStaff mental health is a major determinant of a well-functioning health system that has become ever more important during the COVID-19 pandemic. Poor mental health is the most common reason for NHS staff sickness absences, usually accounting for 25% of all reported sick leave. At a time when the NHS most needs an available and efficient workforce, government and NHS employers lack the necessary evidence to inform decisions about how best to support the mental health needs of its staff. In this report, we share our experience and the initial figures from a newly developed multidisciplinary assessment and treatment service for NHS staff.MethodThe Staff Mental Health Service (SMHS) at the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust (CPFT) launched in September 2020. The SMHS is commissioned by the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough sustainability and transformation partnership and is accessible to the 25,513 staff based at five NHS trusts within the region. The service received 235 referrals within 5 months of the launch. All patients had a first clinical contact within three working days and more than 80% had their initial assessment within two weeks. The SMHS clinical team is comprised of consultant psychiatrists, senior clinical psychologists, specialist mental health nurses, and an occupational health nurse set to provide rapid access, confidential, evidence-based treatments for the NHS staff. As part of service evaluation within CPFT, we collected routine screening data (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), and Posttraumatic Symptom Check List – 6 (PCL-6)) from patients completing the initial assessment (n = 130).ResultAccording to the initial figures (n = 130) from a diverse group of healthcare staff, on average the patients presented with moderate level of depressive symptoms (PHQ-9: 16.22 ± 5.94). Anxiety levels were in moderate to severe range (GAD-7: 13.45 ± 4.70). Average score of PCL-6 checklist for traumatic stress symptoms was higher than the established cut-off (>14): 19.43 ± 5.65.ConclusionThe Staff Mental Health Service offers an innovative, multi-disciplinary rapid assessment and treatment clinic for NHS staff. The demand for the service has been immense, reaching double the number of predicted referrals. Initial data suggested high rates of moderate to severe depression, anxiety, and traumatic stress symptoms in healthcare workers. Our clinical observations was that many healthcare workers have had longstanding significant mental health conditions that saw deterioration during the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope that our experience in the SMHS will help inform models across the UK to address the clear unmet need for staff mental health.

Abstract:
England has struggled to create and sustain intermediate tier institutions of leadership and governance between national government (UKG) and local authorities. This ‘in perspective’ paper reflects on the establishment of 39 Local Enterprise Partnerships between 2010 and 2012, and their assumption of increasing powers and resources during their first seven years of existence (2010–17). This is considered in the light of the lessons of the Greater Cambridgeshire Greater Peterborough Local Enterprise Partnership. Greater Cambridgeshire Greater Peterborough Local Enterprise Partnership was a first round Local Enterprise Partnerships eventually wound up and absorbed into a Mayoral Combined Authority – itself a new form of intermediate tier institution – in early 2018. Greater Cambridgeshire Greater Peterborough Local Enterprise Partnership exemplifies the challenges of intermediate tier leadership and governance in England in many ways – the tensions between administrative and functional economic geographies; between national and local legitimacy and accountabilities; between political, business, and third sector stakeholders; between strategic leadership and delivery effectiveness. In mid-2018 Government’s ‘Strengthened LEPs’ Review – partly stimulated by the Greater Cambridgeshire Greater Peterborough Local Enterprise Partnership experience – sought to reconcile some of these tensions. The paper suggests major limitations with the review’s approach, which may also have surfaced fundamental contradictions in Government’s devolution ambitions and policies. England will almost certainly need a new approach to local and regional growth as BREXIT issues play out over 2019–21, and as it seeks to deliver Local Industrial Strategies. The Local Industrial Strategies seek to tackle fundamental industrial and inclusive growth challenges across England’s cities and regions with their wide territorial variations in performance. Whether this can be founded on an evolution of the Local Enterprise Partnership system or requires a radical fresh start remains an open question.

Abstract:
Electrocardiography (ECG) interpretation is an essential skill for physicians as well as for many other health care professionals. Continuing education is necessary to maintain these skills. The process of teaching and learning ECG interpretation is complex and involves both deductive mechanisms and recognition of patterns for different clinical situations (“pattern recognition”). The successful methodologies of interactive sessions and real time problem based learning have never been evaluated with a long distance education model. To evaluate the efficacy of broadcasting ECG rounds to different hospitals in the Southeastern Ontario region; to perform qualitative research to determine the impact of this methodology in developing and maintaining skills in ECG interpretation. ECG rounds are held weekly at Kingston General Hospital and will be transmitted live to Napanee, Belleville, Oshawa, Peterborough and Brockville. The teaching methodology is based on real ECG cases. The audience is invited to analyze the ECG case and the coordinator will introduce comments to guide the case through the proper algorithm. Final interpretation will be achieved emphasizing the deductive process and the relevance of each case. An evaluation will be filled out by each participant at the end of each session. Videoconferencing works through a vast array of internet LANs, WANs, ISDN phone lines, routers, switches, firewalls and Codecs (Coder/Decoder) and bridges. A videoconference Codec takes the analog audio and video signal codes and compresses it into a digital signal and transmits that digital signal to another Codec where the signal is decompressed and retranslated back into analog video and audio. This compression and decompression allows large amounts of data to be transferred across a network at close to real time (384 kbps with 30 frames of video per second). Videoconferencing communication works on voice activation so whichever site is speaking has the floor and is seen by all the participating sites. A continuous presence mode allows each site to have the same visual and audio involvement as the host site. A bridged multipoint can connect between 8 and 12 sites simultaneously. This innovative methodology for teaching ECG will facilitate access to developing and maintaining skills in ECG interpretation for a large number of health care providers.

Abstract:
The paper presents an analysis of the latent need for further Combined Authorities across England and finds that there are many potential functional areas, like the Cambridge and Peterborough Authority, which merit them on grounds of size or growth. They often correspond to Local Enterprise Partnership or past Multi-Area Agreement areas and stand among many abortive devolution proposals of the last four years. Their travel-to-work areas frequently conflict with shire counties’ present boundaries, a problem which provides the strongest obstacle to new ‘larger-than-local’ governance arrangements. The present government’s abandonment of the requirement for new non-city Combined Authorities to have a directly elected mayor would remove a main barrier to establishing new devolution agreements across England, which is delayed by the need for a promised policy paper from government.

Abstract:
By the end of the eleventh century, the region of the Welsh borderlands had undergone a significant shift in representation from a distinct territory with a singular style of fighting to a place linked particularly with outlawry. Chapter five explores the transitional moment between these two conceptualisations of the borderlands through an extended study of the Peterborough Chronicle, the recension of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle continued for the longest period following the Norman Conquest. This text marks the beginning of an important conceptual shift in which a culture of outlawry moved from the mixed Anglo-Welsh inhabitants of the borderlands to the Welsh alone by the end of the eleventh century, underscoring the impact of the Norman presence on the culture of this region.

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on the individuals over the age of 65 years who make up over 20 percent of the regional population in Peterborough. It recounts the creation of the Age-Friendly Peterborough Community Action Plan (the Plan), which was aimed to address the growing issues of the aging population. It also discusses the Plan's four fundamental goals: to meet the basic needs of older adults; make it convenient for older adults to get around the community; support older adults to build and maintain relationships; and give older adults the opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute. The chapter refers to the recreation, leisure, and facilities study that was recently undertaken to help figure out how to increase participation in recreational activities from older adults. It elaborates on one of the results of the study that found that low participation in recreation has contributed to the challenges at Peterborough's three senior activity centres.
