Frequency domain water table fluctuations reveal recharge in fractured aquifers depends on both intense and seasonal rainfall and unsaturated zone thickness
Authors: Guillaumot Luca , Longuevergne Laurent , Marçais Jean , Lavenant Nicolas , Bour Olivier
Published: June 2022

Abstract. Groundwater recharge is difficult to estimate, especially in fractured aquifers, because of the spatial variability of the soil properties and because of the lack of data at basin scale. A relevant method, known as the WTF method, consists in inferring recharge directly from the water table fluctuations (WTF) observed in boreholes. However, the WTF method neglects the impact of lateral groundwater redistribution in the aquifer, i.e. assumes that all the WTF are attributable to recharge. In this study, we developed the WTF approach in the frequency domain to better consider groundwater lateral flow, which quickly redistributes the inpulse of recharge and mitigates the link between WTF and recharge. First, we calibrated a 1D analytical groundwater model to estimate hydrodynamic parameters at each borehole. These parameters were defined from the WTF recorded for several years, independently of prescribed potential recharge. Second, calibrated models are reversed analytically in the frequency domain to estimate recharge fluctuations (RF) at weekly to monthly scales from the observed WTF. Models were tested on two twin sites with similar climate, fractured aquifer, and land use but different hydrogeologic settings: one has been operated as a pumping site for the last 25 years (Ploemeur, France) while the second has not been perturbed by pumping (Guidel). Results confirm the important role of rainfall temporal distribution to generate recharge. While all rainfall contribute to recharge, the ratio of recharge to rainfall minus potential evapotranspiration is frequency dependent, varying between 20–30 % at periods <10 days, 30–50 % at monthly scale, and reaching 75 % at seasonal time scales. We further show that the unsaturated zone thickness controls the intensity and timing of RF. Overall, this approach contributes to better assess recharge and enable to improve the representation of groundwater systems within hydrological models. In spite of the heterogeneous nature of aquifers, parameters controlling WTF can be inferred from WTF time series.
Multi-station automatic classification of seismic signatures from the Lascar volcano database

Published: June 2022

Abstract. This study was aimed to build a multi-station automatic classification system for volcanic seismic signatures. This system was based on a probabilistic model made using transfer learning, which has, as the main tool, a pre-trained convolutional network named AlexNet. We designed four experiments using different datasets with data that was real, artificial, and two different combinations of these (combined 1 and combined 2). The experiment presented the highest scores when a process of data augmentation was introduced into processing sequence. Thus, the lack of real data in some classes (imbalance) dramatically affected the quality of the results, because the learning step (training) was over-fitted to the more numerous classes. To test the model stability with variable inputs, we implemented a k-fold cross-validation procedure. Under this approach, the results were more than optimal, considering that only the percentage of recognition of the tectonic events (TC) class was partially affected. The most valuable benefit of using this technique was that the use of volcano seismic signals from multiple stations provided a more generalisable model which, in near future, can be extended to multi-volcano database systems. The impact of this work is significant in the evaluation of hazard and risk by monitoring the dynamic evolution of volcanic centres, which is crucial for understanding the stages in a volcano’s eruptive cycle.
Travel and terrain advice statements in public avalanche bulletins: a quantitative analysis of who uses this information, what makes it useful, and how it can be improved for users
Authors: Fisher Kathryn C. , Haegeli Pascal , Mair Patrick
Published: June 2022

Abstract. Recreationists are responsible for developing their own risk management plans for travelling in avalanche terrain. To help recreationists mitigate their exposure to avalanche hazard, many avalanche warning services include explicit travel and terrain advice (TTA) statements in their daily avalanche bulletins where forecasters offer guidance about what specific
terrain to avoid and what to favour under the existing conditions. However,
the use and effectiveness of this advice has never been tested to ensure it
meets the needs of recreationists developing their risk management approach
for backcountry winter travel. We conducted an online survey in Canada and the United States to determine
which user groups are paying attention to the TTA in avalanche bulletins,
what makes these statements useful, and if modifications to the phrasing of the statements would improve their usefulness for users. Our analysis
reveals that the core audience of the TTA is users with introductory-level
avalanche awareness training who integrate slope-scale terrain considerations into their avalanche safety decisions. Using a series of
proportional-odds ordinal mixed-effect models, we show that reducing the
jargon used in the advice helped users with no or only introductory-level
avalanche awareness training understand the advice significantly better and
adding an additional explanation made the advice more useful for them. These
results provide avalanche warning services with critical perspectives and
recommendations for improving their TTA so that they can better support
recreationists who are at earlier stages of developing their avalanche risk
management approach and therefore need the support the most.
Metrics of the Hadley circulation strength and associated circulation trends
Authors: Pikovnik Matic , Zaplotnik Žiga , Boljka Lina , Žagar Nedjeljka
Published: June 2022

Abstract. This study compares trends in the Hadley cell (HC) strength using different metrics applied to the ECMWF ERA5 and ERA-Interim reanalyses for the period 1979–2018. The HC strength is commonly evaluated by metrics derived from the mass-weighted zonal-mean stream function in isobaric coordinates. Other metrics include the upper tropospheric velocity potential, the vertical velocity in the mid-troposphere, and the water vapour transport in the lower troposphere. Seven known metrics of HC strength are complemented here by a metric of the spatially averaged HC strength, obtained by averaging the stream function in the latitude–pressure (φ–p) plane, and by the total energy of zonal-mean unbalanced circulation in the normal-mode function decomposition. It is shown that metrics, which rely on single-point values in the φ–p plane, produce unreliable 40-year trends in both the northern and southern HCs, especially in ERA-Interim; magnitudes and even the signs of the trends depend on the choice of the HC strength metric. The two new metrics alleviate the vertical and meridional inhomogeneities of the trends in HC strength. The unbalanced energy metric suggests a positive HC trend in both reanalyses, whereas the metric based on averaging the stream function finds a significant positive trend only in ERA5.
La competencia entre centros educativos, calidad en la gestión y su impacto social: una comparativa entre países
Authors: Sanz-Magallón Rezusta Gonzalo , Molina-López Manuel María , García- Centeno María Carmen
Published: June 2022

El presente trabajo estudia la asociación entre el nivel de competencia al que están sometidos las escuelas y la calidad de su gestión, utilizando para ello una base de datos de corte transversal que incluye 1.800 centros educativos de ocho países distintos y cuya propiedad abarca desde administraciones públicas, cooperativas de enseñanza, fundaciones o empresas de capital riesgo, entre otros. El interés de esta investigación se pone de manifiesto ya que otros trabajos han demostrado que la calidad de la gestión de los centros educativos afecta directamente al rendimiento de los alumnos y por ende al desarrollo social. Los resultados obtenidos confirman la principal hipótesis de que la competencia se relaciona positivamente con la calidad de la gestión del centro. Si bien esta conclusión es relevante desde el punto de vista de la política educativa, es preciso tener en cuenta que la literatura ha mostrado posibles consecuencias negativas derivadas de la competencia entre centros, como son la tendencia hacia la segmentación de los centros y la creciente polarización de los mismos.
History of Menstrual Injustice
Authors: Silverman Alexa
Published: June 2022

Abstract

This research paper lies at the intersection of criminal justice, human rights, public health, and women, gender, and sexuality studies. Written for the 2021 Barnard major track History of the Present, this paper details the contemporary history of American mass incarceration as well as exposes the blatant human rights injustices and health concerns of the experience of carceral menstruation. As women's incarceration, and Black women's incarceration in particular, has increased more than any other demographic in recent years, menstruation behind bars has become a pertinent and absolutely necessary experience to discuss and improve. Abhorrent policies in jails and prisons have forced upon prisoners with periods highly unsanitary and unjust menstruation experiences, an example of the prison industrial complex's blatant and inhumane disregard for bodily autonomy.
How Much Reform?
Authors: Pogorelova Lioubov
Published: June 2022

Though the curriculum reform movement that began in 1989 has had a significant impact on calculus pedagogy and content (Windham, 2008), the question remains to what extent reform-based calculus textbooks reflect these reforms. This paper explores this question by analyzing the mathematical content and pedagogical approach of the chapter on functions in Hughes-Hallett et al.’s (2018) reform-based college textbook Calculus: Single and Multivariable (CS&M). To conduct this analysis, the paper first synthesizes Hwang et al.’s (2021) framework for analyzing mathematics textbooks along with Sood and Jitendra’s (2007) framework for comparing traditional and reform-based mathematics textbooks. The paper then applies the synthesized frameworks to identify elements of reform from the big ideas, contextual features, mediated scaffolding, problem solving activities, and STEM integration found in the CS&M chapter. The results suggest that, although the chapter  integrates many reform-based principles, there may be scope for further integration. Such efforts, however, may be constrained by influential stakeholders.
Fallen Castles in the Air: Marriage, Labor, and Suppression in Louisa May Alcott’s 'Little Women'
Authors: Karpen Elizabeth
Published: June 2022

Suppression of one’s emotions is defined as a shared experience among the March sisters in Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women, and a large portion of women after the Civil War. Drawing on the failed careers of Jo and Amy and the struggling marriage of Meg, this essay argues that in learning how to suppress oneself and be seen as socially acceptable, the sisters lose their prospects for success and happiness. When the sisters stray from home, their flaws are exposed: Meg’s jealousy, Jo’s anger, and Amy’s greed. A return trip home and time completing labor provide them training for wifehood. Within this labor, each sister confronts their greatest desire, forcing them to contain their desires toward what they want in order to prevent another outburst. The domestic sphere becomes a place for them to come face-to-face with their largest flaw and use the home as a testing ground for how to suppress their true emotions and survive within the expectations of being a wife. In stifling their ambitions and desires outside the domestic sphere through suppression training, the March sisters lose the prospects for unhappy marriages with men that continuously inflame their flaws through belittling behavior and condemnation.

Learning to Teach, Again, in China
Authors: McLeod-Chambless Lisa Lynn
Published: June 2022

Teaching English abroad provides an opportunity to travel the world however, it can also be challenging endeavor. Having limited exposure to and understanding of the culture adds to the intensity of the challenge and the inability to navigate daily living in a new environment can be a painful disorienting experience that often results in culture shock. Young Yun Kim’s theory outlines a developmental model that presents the trials of cross-cultural adaptation as a dynamic and transformative process through which “intercultural personhood” can be developed. Kim argues that the stress of acculturation and deculturation is an opportunity for growth that is manifested in cycles of “stress-adaptation-growth”.  This account of a three-year experience living and teaching at a public high school in China applies Kim’s model to demonstrate how the difficulties of cross-cultural experiences can be the catalyst for transformation and development of intercultural identity. Developing an understanding of the cultural context through awareness and reflection facilitates the ability to teach students from other cultures. Educators in Georgia, particularly ESL teachers, are likewise challenged by cultural differences with their students and can further develop their intercultural skills in regardless of location.

The Mediating Role of Resilience and Personality Traits in the Relationship between Social Isolation and Psychological Well-Being in the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: SAPANCI AHMET , AKKAYA Gözde
Published: June 2022

The present study investigates the mediating role of psychological resilience and personality traits in the relationship between the social isolation process implemented during the pandemic period and the psychological well-being of individuals. The predictive correlational model based on the relational survey method, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. The study participants consisted of 238 people through the convenient sampling model, 66 men and 172 women. Personal Information Form, Social Isolation subtest of Nottingham Health Profile Scale, short form of the Psychological Resilience Scale, Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-Being Scale and short form of the Five-Factor Personality Scale were used as data collection tools in the study. While determining the mediating effects in the data analysis, a regression analysis based on the bootstrap method was performed with the Process Macro. As a result of the research, it was found that resilience mediated the relationship between the perception of social isolation and psychological well-being. When the mediating effect of personality dimensions was examined, it was found that the mediating effect of conscientiousness, neuroticism, and extraversion dimensions were significant. In contrast, the mediating effects of openness to experience and agreeableness dimensions were not statistically significant.

Authors: Diósi Karola , Török Regina , Oláh Attila , Vargha András
Published: June 2022

Subjective well-being (SWB) has been studied among adults using a variety of selfreported methods. However, there are relatively few tests of SWB available for children. Measuring SWB is also important in the school environment, but there is no valid and reliable Hungarian test for elementary schoolchildren. The aim of the study presented in this paper was to adapt the School Children’s Happiness Inventory (Ivens, 2007) to Hungarian and to construct a shorter version of the test. A multistep test reduction yielded a 12 items version that had excellent fit measures in confirmative factor analysis and high level Cronbach’s alphas in all grade groups. The validity of the new test was confirmed by means of a mental health test also developed for children. Concordant validity was confirmed by the significant correlations between the subscales of the new test and the Flow item of the mental health test. An interesting additional result is that SWB is in a negative relationship with age among schoolchildren.

Sünnet-Vahiy Bağlamında Namazın Kılınışı Hakkındaki Görüşlerin Değerlendirilmesi •

İslam âlimleri, Hz. Peygamber’in sünnetinin bilgi kaynakları hakkında nübüvvet ve beşer ayrımındaki bazı iltibaslara dayanan farklı görüşler dile getirmişlerdir. Bu konuda dört ayrı anlayış oluşmuştur. Sünnetin tamamının vahye dayandığı görüşüne sahip bazı âlimler ve muhaddisler peygamberlerin rüya, ilham, kalplerine doğan bilginin gayrı metlûv vahiy ya da hikmet yani Kur’an dışında bir vahiy olduğu görüşünü benimsemiştir. Cumhur Âlimler, Hz. Peygamber’in Sünnetinin bilgi kaynağı olarak Kur’an, gayrı metlûv vahiy, beşerî tecrübe, haber, duyu organları ve nazarî görüşleri kabul etmişlerdir. Geleneği şekillendirmesi açısından Sünnet, Hz. Peygamber’in beşeri tecrübeyi vahiy kontrolünde kendi içtihadıyla yeniden düzenlemesidir. Hz. Peygamber’in Sünneti, illetlerin ve şartların dönüşümünü göz önünde bulundurmak suretiyle değişimin nüvelerini barındıran esas kaynaktır. Hz. Peygamber’in sünnetle dini hayata koyduğu formun bir tür vahiy ve şartlar değişse de değiştirilemez hükümler olduğu hususundaki kanaatlerinden dolayı hadisçiler, kimi düşünce gelenekleri tarafından tenkit edilmişlerdir. Araştırmada Hz. Peygamber’in namaz kılınışında sünnetinin kaynağı hakkındaki tartışmaları ve delilleri rivayet ilmi açısından değerlendirmeyi amaçlanmıştır. Vahyin tek ürününün Kur’an olduğunu kabul eden Hariciye fırkaları namaza dair uygulamalarda delil alınan hadisleri inkâr etmeleri sünnetin kaynağının ne olduğu tartışmasını gündeme getirmiştir. Nitekim namazın nasıl kılınacağına dair öğretinin Cebrail tarafından Hz. Peygamber’e talim edildiği görüşüne karşı çıkan söz konusu fırkalar, önceki şeriatlerde de benzer ibadet uygulamasının olduğunu gerekçe göstererek Hz. Peygamber’in namazın kılınışını Cebrail’in taliminden değil, önceki şeriatlerin uygulamalarından aldığı düşüncesiyle karşı argüman geliştirmişlerdir. Cebrail’in namazın kılınışıyla ilgili farklı zamanlarda Hz. Peygamber’le iletişim kurduğu göz önünde tutulduğunda namazın Kur’an’ın indirilişine uygun olarak tedricen talim edildiği söylenebilir.

Authors: Taaban Sadik K.
Published: June 2022

In this study, we demonstrate the effect of plant extracts on whitefly and aphid’s insects that are economically harmful to crops and plants in greenhouse. A laboratory experiment was carried out to study the effect of four concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 g/l) of the alcoholic extract of the Moringa plant on whitefly and aphid’s insects. The results showed that the concentration of 3 g/l was significantly superior to the other concentrations used in the experiment, achieving percentage mortality rates of 95% in the nymph’s stage, where the account of insects decreased from 100 live insects before spraying to 5 live insects only after 72 hours of treatment with this concentration. In addition, the percentage mortality rate at the adult stage reached 91%, in which the counts of live insects decreased from 100 live insects before spraying to 9 insects after spraying with this concentration, where the rates of increase in the mortality efficiency rates reached at a concentration of 3 g/l compared to the other concentrations and at the nymph stage (13.09, 35.71, 50.79%), respectively, while the increase rates were at the nymph stage of aphids (16.25, 34.78, 47.61%), respectively. Whereas, the concentration of 0.5 g/l was the least effective in average efficiency of the concentrations used in the experiment in controlling the target insect, where it achieved a lower value of mortality rate, recording remarkable decrease, which reached at the nymphs and adults stages of whitefly and aphids insects (63, 60, 63, 61%), respectively. The chemical examinations for the detection of the plant extract content from the active compounds showed that it contains tannins, glycosides, phenols, resins, carbohydrates, saponins, alkaloids and terpenes.
Vivienda colectiva y cuidados. Metodología para el análisis proyectual desde una perspectiva de género
Authors: Reus Patricia , Blancafort Jaume , Camacho Marta
Published: June 2022

No hay duda de que la concepción cultural y social del género ha influido a la hora de proyectar y utilizar los espacios, impregnándolos de roles impuestos y estereotipándolos en función de las actividades en ellos realizadas. Esta investigación propone una metodología de análisis de la unidad habitacional en el proyecto de vivienda colectiva desde una perspectiva de género. Su objetivo es ofrecer una herramienta de autoevaluación con la cual validar un diseño de viviendas igualitarias acorde con una aproximación multidimensional a la realidad y realizar un primer análisis espacial de la vivienda contemporánea en España. Con este fin se ha identificado una serie de parámetros que permite visibilizar desequilibrios, desigualdades o incluso subordinación en la utilización de las estancias domésticas. Posteriormente se ha procedido a testear el método en una serie de casos de estudio sobre la paradigmática producción de vivienda pública en Madrid durante la década 2000-2010. Los resultados evidencian las carencias y las aportaciones de los proyectos estudiados, lo que nos ayuda a ir generando un catálogo de estrategias proyectuales efectivas a la hora de plantear viviendas igualitarias y sensibles con las tareas domésticas.
La idea de "América" en la narrativa sobre independencia nacional. Análisis de textos escolares en Venezuela y Chile (2000-2017)
Authors: Uzcátegui Pacheco Ramón Alexander
Published: June 2022

Se analizaron textos escolares de Venezuela y Chile con la finalidad de identificar las referencias sobre América en las unidades de aprendizaje sobre la Independencia Nacional. La investigación, de carácter documental, se enmarca en el estudio de narrativas en perspectiva comparada. En la lectura de los documentos se consideraron categorías como la idea de América, localidades, población y estructura social. Como conclusión se obtuvo que América se presenta como colonia, como telón de fondo de un proceso independentista fundamentalmente de carácter nacional. Comparativamente, los textos expresan distintas concepciones de América y distintos enfoques sobre la formación ciudadana. Los textos escolares venezolanos pasaron progresivamente de promover una visión integracionista del estudio de América hacia una visión decolonial, en contraste con el caso de los textos chilenos, centrados en la historia nacional y en el fomento de los derechos humanos.

Published: June 2022

Abstract. Scientific reasoning skills help students master scientific competencies, understand complex concepts, and equip them with the abilities to apply concepts and competencies in a variety of real-life contexts. These skills are important for students’ preparation to the international education programs. Since there are limited studies in the literature that examine the relationship between students’ content knowledge and scientific reasoning, especially in the international programs in secondary education, this research aims to investigate the extent to which the students’ achievement in the International General Certificate of Certificate (IGCSE) as well as students’ achievement in their science and mathematics courses in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP) correlate to the students’ scientific reasoning abilities. The research was conducted at a national school with IGCSE and IBDP programs. The study used Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (CTSR) to measure the scientific reasoning. The students’ performances in the CTSR and their levels of achievement in science and math in the IGCSE and IBDP were analyzed using Pearson’s correlation test and Kendall’s tau-b correlation test. The results revealed that there is a moderate correlation between scientific reasoning and content knowledge in science and mathematics.

Background: This study was designed to evaluate and compare the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and indirect magnetic resonance arthrography (I-MRA) imaging with those of arthroscopy and each other.Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was conducted in 2020. All patients who tested positive for labrum lesions during that year were included in the study. The patients underwent conservative treatment for 6 weeks. In the event of no response to conservative treatment, MRI and I-MRA imaging were conducted, and the patients underwent arthroscopy to determine their ultimate diagnosis and treatment plan. Imaging results were assessed at a 1-week interval by an experienced musculoskeletal radiologist. Image interpretation results and arthroscopy were recorded in the data collection form.Results: Overall, 35 patients comprised the study. Based on the kappa coefficient, the results indicate that the results of both imaging methods are in agreement with the arthroscopic findings, but the I-MRA consensus rate is higher than that of MRI (0.612±0.157 and 0.749±0.101 vs. 0.449±0.160 and 0.603±0.113). The sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, and accuracy of MRI in detecting labrum tears were 77.77%, 75.00%, 91.30%, 50.00%, and 77.14%, respectively, and those of I-MRA were 88.88%, 75.00%, 92.30%, 66.66%, and 85.71%.Conclusions: Here, I-MRA showed higher diagnostic value than MRI for labral tears. Therefore, it is recommended that I-MRA be used instead of MRI if there is an indication for potential labrum lesions.
Study on the Threshold Effect of Environmental Tax on Green Innovation
Authors: Pang Qiannan
Published: June 2022

Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 2009 to 2019, this paper studies the spatial spillover characteristic threshold characteristics of green innovation based on the threshold effect model. The study found that: First of all, environmental tax has a threshold effect on regional green innovation, that is, when the environmental tax is less than the threshold value of 0.0145, the environmental tax can significantly increase the regional green innovation; when the environmental tax reaches the threshold value of 0.0145, the environmental tax cannot effectively improve the regional green innovation. Clarifying the relationship between the two will help to reveal the policy effect of environmental tax in a more comprehensive and in-depth manner, and is conducive to promoting the coordinated development of regional economy and environment, technological innovation and high-quality economic development.

To find out the impact of trees on some physical and chemical properties of soil, nine and eight MPTS were planted at 3x3 m spacing in July month of 1984 and 1985 respectively at AICRP on Agroforestry Farm, SDAU, Sardarkrushinagar. The results obtained from tree plantations of 16 years age and from fallow land indicated striking variation due to tree species with respect to physical and chemical properties of soil. The bulk density (BD) significantly decreased under all the tree plantations. Among the tree species studied, Ailanthus excelsa recorded significantly lower value of BD (1.49 g/cc) and highest water holding capacity (31.32 %) in comparison to other tree species. The organic carbon content in the soil under all the tree species was significantly higher as compared to control (0.17%). Considerable increase in the availability of N, P, and K was observed in the soil samples drawn from the tree plantation as compared to control. Among different species, maximum content of available N (235.5kg/ha), P(45.1kg/ha) and K (403 kg/ha) was recorded under Albizia lebbeck, Prosopis cineraria and Azadirachta indica, respectively. These nutrients decreasing with increase in depth. Among the trees, Azadirachta indica and Ailanthus excelsa were relatively superior in soil amelioration.
If You Love Somebody Set Them Free: On The Court Of Justice’S Revision Of The Acte Clair Doctrine
Authors: Broberg Morten , Fenger Niels
Published: June 2022

In its 2021 ruling in Consorzio, the European Court of Justice adopted a more pragmatic approach to its acte clair doctrine. This article analyses this reform and shows that in important respects the Court has eased the requirements for finding a question of EU law to be acte clair. Simultaneously, the Court has introduced a duty for national courts of last instance to give reasons where they are faced with questions of EU law and decide not to make a preliminary reference. The article also considers the Court’s discreet change of approach regarding the application (rather than the interpretation) of EU law by national courts of last instance as reflected in the Consorzio ruling, and argues that there is acte clair where the abstract interpretation of EU law is clear and leaves no scope for any reasonable doubt, even if the national court of last instance entertains doubts as to the correct application of said EU law to the case at hand.
