Horizontal geometry of trade-wind cumuli – aircraft observations from shortwave infrared imager versus radar profiler
Authors: Dorff Henning , Konow Heike , Ament Felix
Published: November 2021

Abstract. This study elaborates how aircraft-based horizontal geometries of trade-wind cumulus clouds differ whether a one-dimensional (1D) profiler or a two-dimensional (2D) imager is used. While nadir profiling devices are limited to 1D realisation of the cloud transect size with limited representativeness of horizontal cloud extension, 2D imagers enhance our perspectives by mapping the horizontal cloud field. Both require high-resolution to detect the lower end of the cloud size spectrum. In this regard, the payload aboard the High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft (HALO) achieves a comparison and also a synergy of both measurement systems. Using the NARVAL-II campaign, we combine HALO observations from a 35.2 GHz cloud and precipitation radar (1D) and from the hyperspectral 2D imager specMACS, having a 30 times higher along-track resolution and compare their cloud masks. We examine cloud size distributions in terms of sensitivity to sample size, resolution and the considered field of view (2D or 1D). This specifies impacts on horizontal cloud sizes derived from the across-track perspective of the high-resolution imager in comparison to the radar curtain. We assess whether and how the trade-wind field amplifies uncertainties in cloud geometry observations along 1D transects through directional cloud elongation. Our findings reveal that each additional dimension, no matter of the device, causes a significant increase of observed clouds. The across-track field yields the highest increase in the cloud sample. The radar encounters difficulties to characterize the trade-wind cumuli size distribution. More than 60 % of clouds are subgrid scale for the radar. While the radar cannot resolve clouds shorter than 200 m and has a lower sensitivity, the amount of small invisible clouds leads to deviations in the size distribution. Double power law characteristics in the imager based cloud size distribution do not occur in radar observations. Along-track measurements do not necessarily cover the predominant cloud extent and inferred geometries lack of representativeness. Trade-wind cumuli show horizontal patterns similar to ellipses with a mean aspect ratio of 3 : 2. Instead of circular estimations based on the 1D transect, elliptic fits maintain the cloud area size distribution. Increasing wind speed tends to stretch clouds more and tilts them into the wind field, which makes transect measurements more representative along this axis.
Towards a regional high-resolution bathymetry of the North West Shelf of Australia based on Sentinel-2 satellite images, 3D seismic surveys, and historical datasets

Published: November 2021

Abstract. High-resolution bathymetry forms critical datasets for marine geoscientists.
It can be used to characterize the seafloor and its marine habitats, to
understand past sedimentary records, and even to support the development of
offshore engineering projects. Most methods to acquire bathymetry data are
costly and can only be practically deployed in relatively small areas. It is
therefore critical to develop cost-effective and advanced techniques to
produce regional-scale bathymetry datasets. This paper presents an integrated workflow that builds on satellites images
and 3D seismic surveys, integrated with historical depth soundings, to
generate regional high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs). The
method was applied to the southern half of Australia's North West Shelf and
led to the creation of new high-resolution bathymetry grids, with a
resolution of 10 × 10 m in nearshore areas and 30 × 30 m elsewhere. The vertical and spatial accuracy of the datasets have been assessed using
open-source Laser Airborne Depth Sounder (LADS) and multibeam echosounder
(MBES) surveys as a reference. The comparison of the datasets indicates that
the seismic-derived bathymetry has a vertical accuracy better than 1 m + 2 % of the absolute water depth, while the satellite-derived bathymetry
has a depth accuracy better than 1 m + 5 % of the absolute water depth.
This 30 × 30 m dataset constitutes a significant improvement of the
pre-existing regional 250 × 250 m grid and will support the onset of
research projects on coastal morphologies, marine habitats, archaeology, and
sedimentology. All source datasets are publicly available, and the methods are fully
integrated into Python scripts, making them readily applicable elsewhere in
Australia and around the world. The regional digital elevation model and the
underlying datasets can be accessed at https://doi.org/10.26186/144600 (Lebrec et al., 2021).
Occurrence of pressure-forced meteotsunami events in the eastern Yellow Sea during 2010–2019
Authors: Kim Myung-Seok , Woo Seung-Buhm , Eom Hyunmin , You Sung Hyup
Published: November 2021

Abstract. This study examined the occurrence of meteotsunamis in
the eastern Yellow Sea and the conceptual framework of a monitoring/warning
system. Using 1 min intervals of mean-sea-level pressure and sea-level
observations from 89 meteorological stations and 16 tide gauges between 2010
and 2019, a total of 42 pressure-forced meteotsunami events were classified.
Most meteotsunamis (71 %) displayed a distinct seasonal pattern occurring
from March to June, and intense meteotsunamis typically occurred at harbor
tide gauges. The occurrence characteristics of the meteotsunamis were
examined to improve the meteotsunami monitoring/warning system. Air pressure
disturbances with speeds of 11–26 m s−1 and NNW–SW directions were conducive to meteotsunami generation. Most meteotsunamis (88 %), as well as strong
meteotsunamis with a wave height exceeding 40 cm (19 %), had dominant
period bands of less than 30 min, containing the resonant periods of harbors
in the eastern Yellow Sea. Thus, the eastern Yellow Sea is a harbor-meteotsunami-dominated environment, characterized by frequent meteotsunami
occurrences and local amplification in multiple harbors. This study can
provide practical guidance on operation periods, potential hot spots, and
risk levels to monitoring/warning system operators in the eastern Yellow
Sea.
Basal Water Storage Variations beneath Antarctic Ice Sheet Inferred from Multi-source Satellite Data
Authors: Kang Jingyu , Lu Yang , Li Yan , Zhang Zizhan , Shi Hongling
Published: November 2021

Abstract. Antarctic basal water storage variations (BWSV) refer to the mass variations of liquid water beneath Antarctic ice sheet. Identifying these variations is critical to understand the behaviour of ice sheet, yet it is rarely accessible to direct observation. We presented a layered gravity density forward/inversion method for estimating Antarctic BWSV from multi- source satellite observation data, and relevant models. Results reveal spatial variability of BWSV with the mean rate of 43 ± 13 Gt/yr during 2003–2009, which is 21 Gt/yr lower than basal melting rate. This indicates that the basal meltwater beneath Antarctic ice sheet is decreasing with the rate of −21 ± 13 Gt/yr, accounting for 28 % of the mass balance rate (−76 Gt/yr, Shepherd et al. (2018)), and the basal water migrations between basal drainage systems and oceans is non-ignorable in estimating basal mass balance of Antarctic ice sheet. Similar spatial distribution of basal water increases regions and locations of active subglacial lakes indicates that basal water storage in most active subglacial lakes is increasing. In most region of Antarctic ice sheet except Amundsen Sea coast region, the comparison of spatial BWSV and ice velocity displays a positive correlation between considerable basal water increases and rapid/accelerated ice flows, which indicates that BWSV appear to have an important effect on ice flows. Accordingly, we infer that further enhanced flow velocities are expected if basal water continues to increase in these regions.
Acceleration of tropical cyclones as a proxy for extratropical interactions: synoptic-scale patterns and long-term trends
Authors: Aiyyer Anantha , Wade Terrell
Published: November 2021

Abstract. It is well known that rapid changes in tropical-cyclone motion occur during interaction with extratropical waves. While the translation speed has received much attention in the published literature, acceleration has not. Using a large data sample of Atlantic tropical cyclones, we formally examine the composite synoptic-scale patterns associated with tangential and curvature components of their acceleration. During periods of rapid tangential acceleration, the composite tropical cyclone moves poleward between an upstream trough and downstream ridge of a developing extratropical wave packet. The two systems subsequently merge in a manner that is consistent with extratropical transition. During rapid curvature acceleration, a prominent downstream ridge promotes recurvature of the tropical cyclone. In contrast, during rapid tangential deceleration or near-zero curvature acceleration, a ridge is located directly poleward of the tropical cyclone. Locally, this arrangement takes the form of a cyclone–anticyclone vortex pair. On average, the tangential acceleration peaks 18 h prior to extratropical transition, while the curvature acceleration peaks at recurvature. These findings confirm that rapid acceleration of tropical cyclones is mediated by interaction with extratropical baroclinic waves. Furthermore, the tails of the distribution of acceleration and translation speed show a robust reduction over the past 5 decades. We speculate that these trends may reflect the poleward shift and weakening of extratropical Rossby waves.
Maß (Moderation, Measure)
Authors: Holland Jocelyn
Published: November 2021

This entry on Maß (moderation, measure) explores a concept that has not received much attention in Goethe scholarship and makes a case for its usefulness and versatility in tracking how Goethe addresses a philosophical issue with a history stretching at least back to Aristotle’s conception of “the golden mean.” It shows how Goethe’s writings respond to numerous issues connected with the concept of moderation, ranging from the problem of self-moderation, when an individual’s own internal calibration comes in conflict with societal norms, to the more theoretical question of how to define the correct standard of measure (Maßstab). The discussion of moderation in Goethe’s work is, to be sure, coupled with its opposite, namely the potentially deadly threat of immoderation and excess, such as one finds in Die Leiden des jungen Werthers (1774; The Sorrows of Young Werther), Wilhelm Meisters Lehrjahre (1795; Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship), and Torquato Tasso (1790). Such potential conflicts, which also raise questions of where to position the standard of measure (Maßstab) of behavior, lead naturally into contexts of scientific experimentation, as in Goethe’s essay “Der Versuch als Vermittler von Objekt und Subjekt” (1792; The Experiment as Mediator of Object and Subject), where such standards take on a different valence from their role in mathematically based natural sciences. In addition, Goethe’s novel, Die Wahlverwandtschaften (1809; Elective Affinities), provides a poetic model where conflicts between individually and socially calibrated notions of measure and moderation play out with major ethical consequences. The entry concludes with a reflection on different kinds of aesthetic experience, each with its particular understanding of Maß: the individual’s appreciation of the sublime, the theatrical performance, and the embodiment of the self through poetic meter. Throughout these examples, the entry will underscore the role of narrative constraints: regardless of whether the medium is prose or poetry, one finds that questions of Maß as moderation in Goethe’s writings are often accompanied by questions of narrative control and excess. The following overview and analysis of Maß in Goethe’s writing will show that this term is a nodal point of ethical, epistemological, and aesthetic concerns.
Augenblick (Moment)
Authors: Rennie Nicholas
Published: November 2021

The motif of the Augenblick (moment) is omnipresent and important throughout Goethe’s writings, across genres and from his earliest to his latest work. As a compound term that combines within itself the idea of a visual act (as “eye-look”) with the temporality of a quick glance, the Augenblick is key to the understanding of time in texts ranging from the early lyric, to the morphological writings, to Faust II. The term is also and perhaps above all philosophically relevant to the exploration of selfhood: it recurrently highlights the role of the individual either as possessing an “eye”—even a quasi-divine eye—that appears to gain control over time, or instead as an entity subject to the influence of fateful moments of change. It also presents models of self-constitution and self-questioning, particularly in erotically charged moments of seeing and being seen. Finally, it provides models for considering the epistemological relationship, and thus the semiotic relationship, between the self and the objects of its cognitive activity.
Lebenskraft (Vital Force)
Authors: Raisbeck Joanna
Published: November 2021

Although it gained currency in scientific debates about generation and processes of life (vitality) at the end of the eighteenth century, the lexeme Lebenskraft (vital force) played only a marginal role in Goethe’s scientific writings. By accounting for the distinctiveness of the living (or organic, animate), it manifests the conceptual bifurcation within the scientific discourse of the period between the living and non-living. Goethe’s understanding of the concept, which is fluid, reflects a critical approach to these debates. While at times he understood Lebenskraft as an organizing principle to explain processes of generation, he was generally skeptical toward the concept, which in his view compromised scientific argumentation and limited knowledge production. In Goethe’s literary works, by contrast, Lebenskraft, became a positive metaphor for metaphysical and artistic acts of creation.

Published: November 2021

Objective: To identify a new marker for depression amongst the elderly residing in old age institutes (OAI) of Karachi. Study Design and Setting: This was a case control study which was carried out by visiting different private old age institutions in the city of Karachi, Pakistan from 2017- 2018. Methodology: A total of 164 people aged 60 years or more were enrolled via convenient sampling. Basic anthropometric variables were measured, lipid profile was estimated as well as serum Visfatin was estimated via ELISA and was also estimated. Results: The BMI, serum triglyceride and visfatin in depressed subjects were significant with p values < 0.001 **, < 0.004* and < 0.001* respectively. Systolic blood pressure was highly significant in depressed subjects when compared with control cases p value < 0.000**.The diastolic blood pressure was significant p value < 0.001* as well. Visfatin was found to be negatively correlated with triglycerides, BMI and LDL and it was weakly correlated with depression. Conclusion: The levels of visfatin were found raised in the depressed individuals but they were statistically not significant. It is suggested that more studies on visfatin can be done to find its association in the identification of depressive symptoms in patients suffering from depression.

Authors: Faruqi Sidra , Saba Noor-us- , Jamal Maira
Published: November 2021

Meningiomas are amongst the most common primary brain tumors, accounting for around one third of cases. They usually present with focal neurological deficits, signs of raised intracranial pressure or seizures. Transient global amnesia (TGA) is an uncommon disorder, usually linked with severe emotional or physical stress, migraine variant or vascular risk factors. It is believed to originate from hippocampal dysfunction. We present the case of a 65 year female, who visited our hospital with two episodes of transient amnesia. Both episodes lasted for 4-5 hours with no other focal neurological dysfunction noted. She fit the diagnostic criteria for TGA and seizures were ruled out by a normal sleep-deprived electroencephalogram (EEG). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of Brain showed the presence of a right frontal meningioma. We conclude that she suffered from TGA secondary to right frontal meningioma, a rare association of which only a handful of cases have been reported worldwide

Coronavirus emerged from Wuhan China, which has been a global challenge for healthcare authorities and individuals. Patients are presenting to the clinicians with neurological symptoms caused by COVID-19 or with preexisting neurological conditions with fear of contracting the virus. We have conducted a literature review on neurological outcomes in COVID- 19 patients along with patients with underlying neurological conditions. We searched multiple databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO, Semantic Scholar, and Wiley Online for information on neurological manifestations of patients suffering from coronavirus. Clinical data and co-morbidities of the patients were examined. Headache, dizziness, hyposmia, and stroke were among the symptoms reported. Emerging literature is suggesting that coronavirus patients along with respiratory symptoms are also experiencing neurological symptoms. Some medical emergencies such as stroke require immediate treatment to save the patients. Neurologists and clinicians need to recognize these symptoms in order to timely manage and treat the patients

Using well-known classical fixed point theorems, we prove the existence of a solution. Subsequently, we prove the generalized Ulam--Hyers--Rassias stability of the solution to the problem. The obtained results are illustrated by some examples.

Introdução: Angioedema é um edema localizado, não inflamatório, assimétrico, desfigurante e autolimitado da derme profunda, tecidos subcutâneos ou submucosa, decorrente da vasodilatação e do aumento da permeabilidade vascular. Pacientes com angioedema hereditário (AEH) sofrem episódios recorrentes de edema envolvendo a pele e a submucosa de vários órgãos, sem associação com urticária e prurido. Os autores relatam o caso de uma gestante com AEH tipo III submetida à cesariana, após ser realizada profilaxia prévia com inibidor de C1. Relato de caso: Gestante, 33 anos, G1P0A0, história de edema facial, desfigurante, sem urticária ou prurido, recorrente, com início após a adolescência, sem fatores desencadeantes. Negou alívio com corticoides ou anti-histamínicos. A mãe e a prima da paciente têm história clínica semelhante. No primeiro trimestre evoluiu satisfatoriamente, sem crises e com ultrassonografias morfológicas normais até o segundo trimestre. No terceiro trimestre evoluiu com crescimento intrauterino restrito (CIUR) e, com 37 semanas, o feto foi identificado com peso percentil 3 e doppler da artéria cerebral média no limite inferior da normalidade, caracterizando CIUR tardio. Realizou-se cesariana, com prescrição do inibidor de C1 (C1-INH) antes da indução anestésica. A cesariana transcorreu sem anormalidades e a paciente recebeu alta após 48 horas de internação com o filho. Os exames identificaram C4 no limite inferior da normalidade, com C3 normal e C1 normal. A paciente, com classificação AEH tipo III, segue em controle e assintomática. Conclusão: A grande preocupação do AEH tipo III é que em geral as dosagens de complemento podem estar normais em pacientes assintomáticos, acometendo preferencialmente mulheres e podendo apresentar como gatilho estresse e trauma, o que pode ocorrer no momento do parto. Portanto, a profilaxia com C1-INH por via endovenosa, antes da indução anestésica, pode ser de grande auxílio, evitando crises.

Objetivo: Avaliar se a troca de luvas está associada à redução de complicações da ferida operatória de cesarianas eletivas em gestações de baixo risco. Métodos: Estudo prospectivo e observacional realizado entre julho de 2019 e agosto de 2020, no qual foram selecionadas 169 pacientes submetidas a cesarianas eletivas, divididas em dois grupos: grupo I (n=100), sem troca de luvas, e grupo II (n=94), com luvas trocadas durante a cirurgia. Para a comparação entre as médias, utilizou-se o teste de Mann-Whitney para as variáveis não paramétricas. Para teste de hipóteses e existência de associações entre as variáveis, adotou-se o teste exato de Fisher. Empregou-se regressão logística binária para determinar se o tempo cirúrgico foi previsor para complicações na ferida operatória durante o período puerperal. A curva receiver operating characteristics (ROC) foi utilizada para determinar o melhor valor do tempo cirúrgico para a identificação de complicações na ferida operatória. Resultados: Houve efeito significativo sobre o tempo cirúrgico (grupo I: 72,6 vs. grupo II: 65,1 min, p=0,006). Não houve associação entre troca de luvas e a presença de complicações da ferida operatória. Das pacientes, 22,5% apresentaram pelo menos uma complicação em até 60 dias após a cesariana, não havendo associação entre a troca de luvas e a presença de comorbidades durante o seguimento pré-natal (p>0,999). O tempo cirúrgico >70 min foi capaz de identificar corretamente 59,1% dos casos de complicações da ferida operatória até 60 dias pós-cesariana, com taxa de falso-positivo de 34% (area under curve: 0,627, p=0,0126, intervalo de confiança — IC95% 0,554-0,695). Conclusão: Em pacientes de baixo risco submetidas a cesarianas eletivas, a troca de luvas não reduziu a incidência de complicações da ferida operatória. O tempo cirúrgico foi um previsor independente para a presença de complicações da ferida operatória até 60 dias pós-cesariana.

Estudos na área apontam alguns entraves ocorrentes na atuação do coordenador pedagógico para o exercício de suas funções e atribuições de maneira objetiva e significativa. Tal problemática foi alvo de nossas inquietações e nos motivou a fazer este estudo para discutir as principais dificuldades enfrentadas pela coordenação pedagógica que resultam em uma identidade profissional não consolidada, gerando incertezas e práticas pedagógicas desvinculadas de suas verdadeiras atribuições. Assim, além de considerarmos o olhar de nossas experiências enquanto atuantes na área, fundamentamos este estudo em teóricos como: TARDIF (2014), ALMEIDA E PLACCO (2012), IMBERNÓN (2011), LIBÂNEO (2004), entre outros. Os resultados da pesquisa mostraram instabilidade entre saber o que precisa ser feito e realmente fazê-lo. Isto é, dilemas quanto ao ser coordenador em sua função precípua (formador de formadores) os quais são reais e difíceis de serem gerenciados enquanto esse profissional não compreender e se mobilizar para o exercício das suas reais atribuições. Isso requer organização, conhecimento autonomia e autoformação.
