The strata of the moduli spaces of Abelian di ff erentials are non-homogenous spaces carrying natural bi-algebraic structures. Partly inspired by the case of homogenous spaces carrying bi-algebraic structures (such as torii, Abelian varieties and Shimura varieties), Klingler and Lerer recently showed that any bi-algebraic curve in a stratum of the moduli space of Abelian di ff erentials is linear provided that the so-called condition ( ⋆ ) is fulfilled.
On the impact of canopy environmental variables on the diurnal dynamics of the leaf and canopy water and carbon dioxide exchange

Quantifying water vapor and carbon dioxide exchange dynamics between land and atmosphere through observations and modelling is necessary to reproduce and project near surface climate in coupled land-atmosphere models. The exchange of water and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) occurs at the leaf surfaces (leaf level) and in a net manner through the exchanges at all the leaf surfaces composing the vegetation canopy and at the soil surface (canopy level). These exchanges depend on the meteorological forcings imposed by the overlying atmosphere (atmospheric boundary layer level). In this manuscript, we 5 investigate the effect of four canopy environmental variables (photosynthetic active radiation (PAR), water vapor pressure deficit (VPD), air temperature (T) and atmospheric CO 2 concentration (C a )) on the local individual leaf exchange and canopy exchange of water and CO 2 at hourly time scales and the effect of atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) processes on the local exchange. To that end, we simultaneously investigated the exchanges of water and CO 2 at leaf level and canopy level for an alfalfa 10 field in Northern Spain during a day in the summer of 2021. We used comprehensive observations ranging from stomatal conductance to ABL measurements collected during the Land Surface Interactions with the Atmosphere in the Iberian Semi-Arid Environment (LIAISE) experiment. To support the observational analysis, we used an integrative mixed-layer atmospheric model (CLASS) that have representations at all considered levels. To relate how temporal changes of the four environmental variables modify the fluxes of water and CO 2 , we studied tendency equations of the leaf gas exchange. These mathematical 15 expressions quantify the temporal evolution of the leaf gas exchange as a function of the temporal evolution of PAR, VPD, T and C a . To investigate the effects of ABL processes on the local exchange, we developed three modelling experiments that impose surface radiative perturbations by a cloud passage (which perturbed PAR, T and VPD), entrainment of dry air from the free troposphere (which perturbed VPD) and advection of cold air (which perturbed T and VPD). Model results and observations matched the leaf gas exchange (with r 2 between 0.23 and 0.67) and canopy gas exchange 20 (with r 2 between 0.90 and 0.95). The tendency equations of the modelled leaf gas exchange during the studied day revealed that the temporal dynamics of PAR were the main contributor to the temporal dynamics of the leaf gas exchange with atmospheric CO 2 temporal dynamics being the least important contributor. From the three modelling experiments with ABL perturbations, the surface radiative changes induced by a cloud perturbed the CO 2 exchange the most, whereas all of them perturbed the water exchange to a similar extent. Second order effects on the dynamics of the leaf gas exchange were also identified using 25

International Journal of Life science and Pharma Research Case Report of Tuberculous Anterior Chest Wall Abscess

: In developing nations such as India, tuberculosis is a problem for public health. Chest wall tuberculosis is uncommon and frequently manifests as a cold abscess or pseudo tumoral mass necessitating surgical biopsy. One to three percent of individuals with TB develop musculoskeletal tuberculosis (TB), and one to five percent of cases with musculoskeletal TB involve the chest wall. A 38-year-old female presented with anterior chest wall swelling. The patient reported history of pulmonary tuberculosis in childhood for which she was treated with anti-tuberculous drugs for a duration of six months. Examination revealed swelling, which was smooth, fluctuant with well-defined borders along with palpable axillary lymph nodes. Investigations revealed a thick-walled cystic lesion for which she was proceeded with incision and drainage. Caseous pus which was drained was positive for tuberculosis. The patient was started on anti-tuberculous treatment and continued for 6 months. Extrapulmonary TB is currently less common in immunocompetent patients than in non-immunocompetent ones. The location of the tuberculous abscess and the patient's immunocompetence both contribute to the rarity of the present instance. Clinicians still struggle to make the correct diagnosis of musculoskeletal tuberculous infection, which calls for a high degree of suspicion. The diagnosis is highly supported by the slow development of symptoms, positive tuberculin skin test, and congruent radiographic findings. However, TB must be shown by a positive culture or histological evidence. To avoid catastrophic bone and joint destruction, prompt diagnosis and therapy are crucial.
Health behaviours and depressive symptoms in higher education Portuguese students

Introduction: The transition to higher education and the long duration of university studies have implications for students’ health behaviours. They are faced with greater autonomy of choice but also with greater academic obligations that condition their behaviour. The purpose of this study is to determine which health behaviours differentiate higher education students with moderate to severe depressive symptoms from those with mild to low symptoms. Material and methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 166 Portuguese higher education students (58.4% males). The health behaviours assessed were physical activity and sitting time through the International PA Questionnaire – Short Form (IPAQ-SF), active choices through the Active Choice Index Questionnaire, and sports practice and sleeping time through the National Dietary and Physical Activity Survey. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The Mann-Whitney test was used to assess gender differences in depressive symptoms. An Odds-Ratio was calculated to establish the probability of being classified with moderate to severe depressive symptoms. Results: 24.1% of students showed moderate to severe depressive symptoms. In an analysis by gender, it was found that girls spend less time sitting on average than boys (p < 0.001). Students with moderate to severe depressive symptoms show on average more sitting time (p = 0.018) and less sleep time during weekdays (p = 0.005). Conclusions: Sitting time and sleep time are health behaviours that are associated with higher depressive symptoms in higher education students. Higher education institutions are considered to play a key role in promoting health behaviours that can interfere with students’ mental health.
Remote Sensing Classification of Marsh Wetland with Different Resolution Images

Abstract: Successful biological monitoring depends on judicious classification. An attempt has been made to provide an overview of important characteristics of marsh wetland. Classification was used to describe ecosystems and land cover patterns. Different spatial resolution images show different landscape characteristics. Several classification images were used to map and monitor wetland ecosystems of Honghe National Nature Reserve (HNNR) at a plant community scale. HNNR is a typical inland wetland and fresh water ecosystem in the North Temperate Zone. SPOT-5 10 m × 10 m, 20 m × 20 m, and 30 m × 30 m images and Landsat -5 Thematic Mapper (TM) images were used to classify based on maximum likelihood classification (MLC) algorithms. In order to validate the precision of the classifications, this study used aerial photography classification maps as training samples because of their high accuracy. The accuracy of the derived classes was assessed with the discrete multivariate technique called KAPPA accuracy. The results indicate: (1) training samples are important to classification results. (2) Image classification accuracy is always affected by areal fraction and aggregation degree as well as by diversities and patch shape. (3) The core zone area is protected better than buffer zone and experimental zone wetland. The experimental zone degrades fast because of irrational development by humans.
Climate Change, Heat Stress, and U.S. Dairy Production

In the United States, climate change is likely to increase average daily temperatures and the frequency of heat waves, which can reduce meat and milk production in animals. Methods that livestock producers use to mitigate thermal stress—including modifications to animal management or housing—tend to increase production costs and capital expenditures. Dairy cows are particularly sensitive to heat stress, and the dairy sector has been estimated to bear over half of the costs of current heat stress to the livestock industry. In this report, we use operation-level economic data coupled with finely scaled climate data to estimate how the local thermal environment affects U.S. dairies’ effectiveness at producing outputs with a given level of inputs. We use this information to estimate the potential decline in milk production in 2030 resulting from climate change-induced heat stress. For four climate model scenarios, the results indicate modest heat stress-related production declines over the next 20 years, with the largest declines occurring in the South.

Considering the positive effect of all indicators on CADM contributed that government and educational institutions should develop departments to supports to determine their children’s success in careers.
Ionospheric Response to Infrasonic-Acoustic Waves Generated by Ionospheric Response to Infrasonic-Acoustic Waves Generated by Natural Hazard Events Natural Hazard Events

Recent measurements of GPS-derived total electron content (TEC) reveal acoustic wave periods of ∼ 1–4 min in the F region ionosphere following natural hazard events, such as earthquakes, severe weather, and volcanoes. Here we simulate the ionospheric responses to infrasonic-acoustic waves, generated by vertical accelerations at the Earth’s surface or within the lower atmosphere, using a compressible atmospheric dynamics model to perturb a multiﬂuid ionospheric model. Response dependencies on wave source geometry and spectrum are investigated at middle, low, and equatorial latitudes. Results suggest constraints on wave amplitudes that are consistent with observations and that provide insight on the geographical variability of TEC signatures and their dependence on the geometry of wave velocity ﬁeld perturbations relative to the ambient geomagnetic ﬁeld. Asymmetries of responses poleward and equatorward from the wave sources indicate that electron perturbations are enhanced on the equatorward side while ﬁeld aligned currents are driven principally on the poleward side, due to alignments of acoustic wave velocities parallel and perpendicular to ﬁeld lines, respectively. Acoustic-wave-driven TEC perturbations are shown to have periods of ∼ 3–4 min, which are consistent with the fraction of the spectrum that remains following strong dissipation throughout the thermosphere. Furthermore, thermospheric acoustic waves couple with ion sound waves throughout the F region and topside ionosphere, driving plasma disturbances with similar periods and faster phase speeds. The associated magnetic perturbations of the simulated waves are calculated to be observable and may provide new observational insight in addition to that provided by GPS TEC measurements.
Housing and health care management practices followed by the local goat farmers of the northern Hilly region of Chhattisgarh

The present experiment was conducted in Surajpur, Surguja and Balrampur districts of the Northern hilly region of Chhattisgarh state to assess the prevalent management and health care practices adopted by the 140 goat farmers in the native tract. The present study reveals that all goat farmers provide sheds and 67.14% of respondents constructed Separate houses for their goats. Three types of floors Kaccha/earthen, brick paved/cemented and wooden + earthen (raised platform) with percentages of 60.00, 8.57 and 32.14, respectively prevalent in the studied area. The majority (75%) of goat farmers in the northern hills of Chhattisgarh constructed thatched roofs. Most (61.42%) respondents adopted an extensive system (grazing + kitchen waste) of rearing. Due to a lack of awareness and training, not a single goat keeper in the investigated area maintains the breeding record. The present findings indicate that less than 50% of goat farmers know the benefits of vaccination. The majority (55.71%) of the goat farmers were aware and 44.28% of respondents were not aware of the benefits of deworming. The annual kid mortality was 12.01% and it has been concluded that kid mortality is mostly observed in the monsoon and winter seasons.

Assessment of Self-Determined Motivation in Exercise: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

systematic review and meta-analysis to assess associations between types of self-determined motivation in exercise with selected parameters of studies using Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaires (BREQs). Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, we screened 244 studies from PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus against criteria and selected 43 articles for qualitative synthesis. Of those, 40 studies reporting mean scores and standard deviations of six regulations of BREQs, representing self-determined motivation types, were selected for meta-analysis. The pooled mean scores were the highest in intrinsic regulation at 4.00 (95%CI: 2.92–5.09), followed by identified, integrated, introjected, external, and motivation regulations at 3.65 (95%CI: 3.06–4.24), 3.11 (95%CI: 2.68–3.55), 2.21 (95%CI: 1.88–2.53), 1.42 (95%CI: 0.93–1.92), and 0.94 (95%CI: 0.67–1.12), respectively. Findings indicated significant associations between longer exercise duration and introjected (β = 0.014, p = 0.027) and identified (β = 0.014, p = 0.021) regulations. An inverse relationship was found with a higher female participation rate (β=-0.047, p=0.042), while exercise settings in sports and fitness centers exhibited a stronger association with intrinsic motivations (β=2.700, p=0.039). No significant differences were observed among the versions of BREQs in measuring self-determined motivation. This investigation of context invariance utilizing the particular validated scale contributes to furthering comprehension of the instrument in sports and fitness settings. Additionally, it is essential to take into account sex and the exercise environment concerning self-determined motivation when predicting long-term exercise adherence.

Surgical management of macular holes: techniques, outcomes, and treatment of special cases

ABSTRACT Introduction Full-thickness macular hole is a visually significant condition with a very high surgical anatomical closure rate. Areas covered A literature review was performed focusing on surgical techniques for macular holes. What is known about the underlying anatomy and pathophysiology of macular hole formation is applied to surgical techniques that address the mechanisms for hole closure. Expert opinion While anatomic and functional success can be achieved at high rates, much is yet to be learned about the molecular and microstructural changes resulting from surgical manipulation. These insights will help guide novel techniques for complex cases which still suffer from suboptimal surgical outcomes.
