Future Changes in the Asian‐Australian Monsoon System With 1.5°C and 2°C Rise in Temperature

Future changes in the Asian‐Australian monsoon (AAM) and its submonsoons are investigated based on low‐emission scenario simulations using the Community Earth System Model, which are under the 1.5°C and 2.0°C warming targets proposed by the Paris Agreement. Changes in the AAM system are projected by the end of the 21st century: (1) The AAM summer precipitation at the 1.5°C warming target will increase by 4.1% because of the strong enhancement of the Asian summer monsoon (ASM). The maximum is 12.4% in the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) region. The summer monsoon precipitation of AAM system will be further enhanced by 0.4%–3.1% in the 2°C warming target. Indochina Peninsula and China will be influenced by the significant increase of land monsoon precipitation. (2) The summer precipitation of AAM and ASM submonsoons will increase near‐linearly with the local surface temperature warming. Precipitation budget diagnosis shows that the increase in precipitation of AAM and its submonsoons, except for EASM, is only contributed by enhanced moisture. However, the effects of thermodynamic and dynamic contributions are equally essential for EASM. (3) The AAM domain will change insignificantly at both 1.5°C and 2°C warming targets. (4) The AAM‐El Niño‐Southern Oscillation relationship will slightly change at 1.5°C warming targets but will be enhanced at 2.0°C warming targets. This work shows that compared to 1.5°C warming targets, societies will be influenced by higher monsoon precipitation, especially in EASM region, but these changes can be more easily predicted with 2°C temperature rise.
The Operating Characteristics of Partial Nitrification by Controlling pH and Alkalinity

In many experiments, a partial nitrification device is initiated with the use of highly active nitrating sludge because of the large number of nitrifying bacteria. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) are more adaptable to low-dissolved oxygen environments than nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB). NOB activity was inhibited when the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels were decreased, causing the nitrate-nitrogen concentration to gradually decrease in the effluent and the nitrite-nitrogen concentration to gradually increase, achieving the accumulation of nitrous nitrogen. In this experiment, a sequencing batch reactor (SBR) was used to suppress NOB activity at a given pH while maintaining DO at a very low level so that the ammonia–water reaction mainly occurred in the device, and then the mud and water separated. Compared with other experiments, this approach can occur in 25 days, and it runs stably for more than two months until the device closes when the ammonia-nitrogen concentration is about 170 mg/L. This experiment also compared the difference between the pH change at the beginning of the device operation and after the device was stable. In order to increase the efficiency of bacterial appreciation, supplementing NaHCO3 increased the HCO3− concentration by 300 mg/L on the 25th day. It was found that some nitrification reactions still occurred, but they were not enough to destabilize the device. The nitrosate accumulation efficiency still gradually increased, and the average nitrite accumulation efficiency was 87.25% after NaHCO3 supplementation.
Structural and vibrational study of 
Zn(IO3)2
 combining high-pressure experiments and density-functional theory

We report a characterization of the high-pressure behavior of zinc iodate, $\mathrm{Zn}{(\mathrm{I}{\mathrm{O}}_{3})}_{2}$. By the combination of x-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and first-principles calculations we have found evidence of two subtle isosymmetric structural phase transitions. We present arguments relating these transitions to a nonlinear behavior of phonons and changes induced by pressure on the coordination sphere of the iodine atoms. This fact is explained as a consequence of the formation of metavalent bonding at high pressure which is favored by the lone-electron pairs of iodine. In addition, the pressure dependence of unit-cell parameters, volume, and bond distances is reported. An equation of state to describe the pressure dependence of the volume is presented, indicating that $\mathrm{Zn}{(\mathrm{I}{\mathrm{O}}_{3})}_{2}$ is the most compressible iodate among those studied up to now. Finally, phonon frequencies are reported together with their symmetry assignment and pressure dependence.
How Do Women Overcome Gender Inequality by Forming Small-Scale Cooperatives? The Case of the Agricultural Sector in Uganda

In Uganda, the agricultural sector contributes substantially to gross domestic product. Although the involvement of Ugandan women in this sector is extensive, female farmers face significant obstacles, caused by gendering that impedes their ability to expand their family business and to generate incomes. Gender refers to social or cultural categories by which women–men relationships are conceived. In this study, we aim to investigate how gendering influences the development of business relationships in the Ugandan agricultural sector. To do so, we employed a qualitative–inductive methodology to collect unique data on the rice and cassava sectors. Our findings reveal at first that, in the agricultural sector in Uganda, inter-organization business relationships (i.e., between non-family actors) are mostly developed by and between men, whereas intra-organization business relationships with family members are mostly developed by women. We learn that gendering impedes women from developing inter-organization business relationships. Impediments for female farmers include their restricted mobility, the lack of trust by men, their limited freedom in communication, household duties, and responsibilities for farming activities up until sales. Our findings also reveal that these impediments to developing inter-organization business relationships prevent female farmers from being empowered and from attainting economic benefits for the family business. In this context, the results of our study show that grouping in small-scale cooperatives offers female farmers an opportunity to overcome gender inequality and to become economically emancipated. Thanks to these cooperatives, women can develop inter-organization relationships with men and other women and gain easier access to financial resources. Small-scale cooperatives can alter gendering in the long run, in favor of more gender equality and less marginalization of women. Our study responds to calls for more research on the informal economy in developing countries and brings further understanding to the effect of gendering in the Ugandan agricultural sector. We propose a theoretical framework with eight propositions bridging gendering, business relationship development, and empowerment and economic benefits. Our framework serves as a springboard for policy implications aimed at fostering gender equality in informal sectors in developing countries.
NDM-based H-infinity robust control of parallel-connected grid-connected converters for V2G

Because of the unignoring line-impedance, distorted grid voltage, high penetration and the increased parallel-connected grid-connected converters (GCC) in vehicle-to-grid (V2G) system, the stability of the grid with electric vehicle (EV) faces new challenges. To deal with the stability problem, this paper proposes a numerator-denominator-model (NDM) based H-infinity controller combined with an adaptive capacitive-current-feedback active damping method with explicitly robust stability in terms of variations on filter parameters, time-delay and grid-impedance. Simulation results are investigated in two parallel-connected GCC in EV and show the validity of the proposed method.
Laser Direct Writing of Silver Nanowire with Amino Acids-Assisted Multiphoton Photoreduction

We have demonstrated an approach of silver nanostructure microfabrication by femtosecond laser direct writing of silver ion aqueous solution containing biocompatible amino acids with different molecular architectures. The amino acids-assisted multiphoton photoreduction (MPR) lowers the incident femtosecond laser threshold to 0.32 mW for glycine, 0.72 mW for valine, 0.6 mW for proline, and 0.35 mW for leucine. The line widths of the silver nanowires are varied with the composition of the biocompatible amino acids. The highest resolution of 186 nm has been achieved. Furthermore, the corresponding electrical conductivities of silver nanowires are determined to be 1.48 × 10–6, 4.1 × 10–7, 7.04 × 10–7, and 1.35 × 10–6 Ω m, which have been significantly improved compared to that of the previously reported silver wires fabricated by MPR microfabrication. The proposed protocol for fabricating silver nanostructure would pave the way for fabricating metallic nanostructures and play an extremely important role in th.
Linking Images to Information Sources: An Examination of Potential Chinese Tourists’ Multi-sensory Images of the United Kingdom

ABSTRACT This study examines potential Chinese tourists’ multi-sensory images of the UK and their information sources. Interviews with 25 potential Chinese tourists in China reveal that visual images dominate multi-sensory images, and that autonomous sources, such as news reports and textbooks, are key information agents. The relationship between multi-sensory images and information sources is also examined, showing that organic agents are associated particularly with the tactile sense. This study enriches knowledge of multi-sensory images, and especially of information sources that shape potential tourists’ multi-sensory images. Understanding the content of multi-sensory images of the UK and their information sources may help British tourism marketers to understand existing images and identify potential marketing channels, including information sources, through which to promote the UK in China.

The research aims to design a narrow-band frequency drive amplifier (1.5GHz -1.6GHz), which is used to boost the transmitter amplifier's input signal or amplify the GPS, GlONASS signals at the L1 band. The Power Amplifier printed circuit board (PCB) prototype was designed using InGaP HBT homogeneous technology transistor and GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) transistor. Two models have been compared; one of the models gave 16dB gain, and the other gave 23dB when using an input power signal (-15dBm). The PCB consumes 2.4W of power and has a physical dimension of 11 x 4 cm.
Images of violence: can lynching photographs prepare students for the world?

ABSTRACT Using data from a qualitative case study examining how lynching is taught in schools near historic lynching sites, this article examines how lynching photographs were used or not used in the teaching of lynching. Using a pedagogy of witnessing as the analytic tool this article argues that lynching photographs were used in one of three ways: intentional avoidance where photos were not used, to feel fear and anguish, where photos were used to have emotional impact on students, and to teach skills and connection, where photos were used as part of an ongoing effort go have students lean how to understand and analyze photographs. If used thoughtfully to teach skills and connection, violent images like lynching photographs can help prepare students for the larger world.
Enhanced surface water flood forecasts: User‐led development and testing

The risk of surface water flooding (SWF) in England is already high and its frequency and severity is projected to increase in the future. SWF generally occurs due to intense, highly localised rainfall, which is challenging to forecast with sufficient accuracy to take proactive action ahead of flood events. Being able to manage the risk effectively lies in improved rainfall and flood forecast products, better communication of uncertainty and building the capacity of local responders. This study utilises state‐of‐the‐art high‐resolution ensemble rainfall forecasts and hydraulic modelling tools alongside a novel post‐processing method to develop and trial new SWF forecast products within an incident workshop attended by forecast producers and regional forecast users. Twenty‐two of 24 workshop participants reported that the new information would be useful to their organisation but more product development and training in its interpretation is required. Specific recommendations to improve SWF forecast provision include increased support for local government through a single government organisation responsible for SWF, making more use of existing static SWF mapping in a real‐time context and employing the process of user‐based consultation, as outlined in this study, to guide the future development of future SWF forecast information and processes.
Effectiveness of rice straw with biodecomposer and biofertilizer application in new land clearing in Merauke, Papua

In order to fulfil rice production, there were new land clearing programs outside Java, including Merauke, Papua. There were several obstacles on rice cultivation in this area such as low soil fertility which has an effect on less optimal production. The objective of the research was to determine the effect of rice straw with biodecomposer and biofertilizer application for improving soil quality in new land clearing in Merauke, Papua. The research design was a split plot with the main factor was fertilizer (with and without rice straw with biodecomposer and biofertilizer application). The sub factor was three kinds rice varieties. The data were collected consist of soil chemical and biological properties, the rice growth and yield components. The results showed the addition of fertilizer did not significantly improved soil quality in new land clearing in Merauke, Papua. On the contrary, biofertilizer affect to seed vigor and viability in the nursery. The fertilizer addition significantly effected on rice growth and yield components, it was suspected by rice varieties having different resistance to pests and diseases and straw as compost will suppress the blast growth through temperature factor during decomposition. The highest yield was reached by Inpari 33 of 8.20 Mg ha−1.
Linked(In)g Sport Management Education with the Sport Industry: A Preliminary Study

Social media are one of the most valuable management tools used by sport managers in the fulfilment of their daily tasks. However, the studies that share and analyse the impact of educational experiences that incorporate social media into sport management education for professional purposes are scarce to date. Thus, this study presents an educational innovation piloted in a sport management course where LinkedIn—the social media most associated with the professional sphere—is introduced through an experiential learning methodology, as a driver of students’ career development and as a tool to keep up to date and interact with the sport industry. To assess the learning outcomes, a new scale was developed and tested. A total of 90 Spanish undergraduate sport management students (M = 22.71; SD = 3.84) participated in the study, partaking in a pre-test and a post-test. Regarding the results linked to the testing of the scale, the statistical analysis reflects the scale’s two-dimensional nature, explaining 68.78% of the variance, presenting good psychometric properties (α = 0.95). On the other hand, significant increases in all the scale items between the two measures were obtained, with large effects size in the two dimensions (Cohen’s d ≥ 0.80). Therefore, it is concluded that LinkedIn can help to develop the professional profile of sport management students, Linked(In)g what is taught in the classroom with what the sport industry demands.
DVC-Net: A deep neural network model for dense video captioning

Dense video captioning (DVC) detects multiple events in an input video and generates natural language sentences to describe each event. Previous studies predominantly used convolutional neural networks to extract visual features from videos but failed to employ high ‐ level semantics to effectively explain video content such as people, objects, actions, and places, and utilized only limited context information in generating natural language. To overcome these deficiencies, DVC ‐ Net is proposed, a new deep neural network model that uses high ‐ level semantics to efficiently represent important events as well as visual features. Additionally, DVC ‐ Net uses a bidirectional long short ‐ term memory network, a type of recurrent neural network, to detect events over time. Furthermore, DVC ‐ Net applies an attention mechanism and context gating to effectively exploit context information in a caption generation step. In experiments conducted versus state ‐ of ‐ the ‐ art models, DVC ‐ Net presented relative gains of over 1.72% (BLEU@1 score increases from 12.22 to 13.94) and 3.19% (CIDEr score increases from 12.61 to 15.80) on the large ‐ scale benchmark datasets, namely ActivityNet Captions and MSR ‐ VTT, respectively.
Punjab’s ecological crisis: The Akali Dal, SGPC, and competing democratic and authoritarian approaches to development

ABSTRACT When the 'green revolution' began in Punjab in 1964, Punjab sprang to the front rank of Indian agricultural production. But since about 2000, it has been increasingly clear that the technology is leading to an encompassing ecological disaster. The reason for the change lies in the organizational framework. Born in a spirit of flexible egalitarian democracy, it is now dominated by rigid central authoritarianism that forces farmers to grow one crop rotation for one buyer: wheat and rice for the Food Corporation of India. The SGPC and Akali Dal have had an important role in this transformation. This describes it.
Reducing Nonsentinel Harm Events due to Medication Errors by Using Mini-Root Cause Analysis and Action.

Introduction A full root cause analysis (RCA) such as that required following a sentinel event is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and expensive. This quality improvement project used a similar but abbreviated process (mini-RCA and action; mini-RCA2) in response to medication errors that caused less serious harm. Methods In 2018, all medication errors that caused harm due to system failures but were not sentinel events were investigated by mini-RCA2. The incidence of similar medication errors reported in the year before and in the year after the introduction of mini-RCA2 was compared to determine the impact of this intervention. Similar events were identified by searching the safety reporting system database for reported medication errors by drug name (e.g., Humate® P) and/or event type (e.g., prescribing error-omission of a patient's home medications on admission to hospital). The time and labor costs of this intervention were estimated. Results Seven medication errors were investigated by mini-RCA2. More than 48 members of staff from 11 clinical and nonclinical departments contributed to the identification of 39 system failures and made 42 recommendations, of which 22 (52%) were implemented. This reduced the recurrence of reports of similar events from 35 (0.57%) to 21 (0.36%). Although this 0.21% absolute decrease did not achieve statistical significance, recurrence of similar harm events was reduced from 7 (0.11%) to 0 (p = 0.016). Benefits were greatest when the mini-RCA2 recommendations were fully implemented. This reduced the recurrence of similar events from 9 (0.21%) to 0 (p = 0.007). A total of 251 hours (mean ± SD, 35.9 ± 16.6 hours) were required for this intervention. The associated labor cost was Saudi Arabia Riyal (SAR) 34,181 (US $8256; mean SAR ± SD, 4883 ± 1302 [mean US $ ± SD, $2102 ± $561]). Conclusion The use of mini-RCA2 to review medication errors provided a structured process to manage reported events, monitor the implementation of recommendations, and assess the effectiveness of implemented actions. The use of this rapid process to investigate errors that cause harm but are not sentinel events reduced recurrence of similar medication errors. Although the time and cost required for this intervention is not insignificant, the cumulative benefit to patients, healthcare professionals, and the organization are greater.

Enhancing SiN waveguide optical nonlinearity via hybrid GaS integration

Silicon nitride (SiN) has been demonstrated as an exceptional low-loss platform for integrated photonics, however, its relatively small nonlinear refractive index limits its full potential in applications such as all-optical phase modulation, supercontinuum generation, and frequency combs. Here, we demonstrate that through hybrid integration with wide-bandgap 2D materials such as gallium sulfide (GaS), the nonlinear refractive index of the hybrid waveguide can be greatly increased (by five-fold in our experiment). We fabricate high quality factor SiN/GaS microring resonators, with low two-photon absorption at telecom wavelengths, to demonstrate enhanced all-optical modulation. We show that the hybrid platform is suitable for assessing the nonlinear properties of 2D materials, and we have used it to quantify, for the first time, the nonlinear refractive index (n 2) of GaS. For GaS, n 2 = 12×10−19 m2W−1 , which is ten times larger than that of SiN.
Ground deformation of Dongsheng mining area revealed by multi-temporal InSAR

Coal is one of the most important mineral resources in the industrial development of China. In order to minimize the losses directly or indirectly caused by the ground subsidence, it is necessary to accurately retrieve the information of the ground subsidence distribution during the mining process and make the accurate impact assessment of changes in the ecological environment. In this paper, we selected Sentinel-1A data of 22 scenes from July 2018 to March 2019, which covers Dongsheng coalfield of Ordos, Inner Mongolia. Then, PS-InSAR is used to obtain the ground deformation information. The results show that the PSs with high deformation rate and large accumulation are mainly located in the centre of the focused area, where the velocity along line of sight (LOS) mainly ranges from - 17 mm/year to - 5 mm/year with the extreme value reaching - 33.5 mm/year. Meanwhile the deformation rate of the majority of the PSs ranges from - 5 mm/year to 5 mm/year. It is highly recommended to reduce the ground deformation and mitigate the impact of land subsidence on the ecological environment caused by mining through programming logical mining schemes.
