Abstract. Organic aerosols play a significant role in atmospheric chemistry and climate, yet their sources and transformations remain poorly characterised over marine regions. This study aims at representing the clean Northeast Atlantic background by presenting the first source apportionment of organic aerosols (OA) at Mace Head, Ireland. Resolved organic aerosol sources were characterised by prevailing pristine marine boundary layer air masses, with balanced mass contributions from primary and secondary sources. Positive matrix factorisation resolved four OA types: primary marine organic aerosols (42%), methanesulphonic acid aerosols (17%), more oxidised oxygenated organic aerosols (32%), and peat-derived aerosols (9%). Transfer entropy is introduced as a novel method to trace secondary organic aerosol origins, revealing that aged organics form from both open Ocean air masses undergoing ozonolysis as well as oxidation from local peat burning emissions. Conversely this approach further demonstrates that primary marine organic aerosols and methanesulphonic acid aerosols are fully exempt of anthropogenic influences. This work also presents a detailed characterisation of marine sources, building on previously identified tracers. PMOA reflects phytoplankton extracellular metabolic processes largely shaped by abacterial processes whereas MSA-OA is marked by stress enzymes. By integrating diatoms, coccolithophores, cyanobacteria, and green algae from the NASA Ocean Biogeochemical Model (NOBM) this manuscript finally concludes that MSA-OA are closely tied to coccolithophores blooms while PMOA  are rather linked to diatoms, chlorophytes, and cyanobacteria instead. These findings highlight the need for  extended investigations into marine aerosols chemical pathways and associations with phytoplanktons as drivers of marine OA.

Authors: Bonaldo Rodrigo Bragio
Published: September 2024

Este artigo explora a semântica dos tempos históricos usando Processamento de Linguagem Natural (PLN). Desenvolvemos a família de modelos Woke (Word Embedding and Knowledge Model), utilizando algoritmos de vetorização de palavras como o Word2Vec, treinados em um corpus de teses e dissertações da Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (2003-2024). Os modelos Woke-HST e Woke-CFH foram treinados especificamente em História e Ciências Humanas. Já os modelos Woke-UFSC foram expostos a 96,25% dos dados nativo digitais disponíveis no repositório de nossa universidade. O desenvolvimento envolveu coleta, pré-processamento, treinamento e validação dos dados, usando aprendizados micro-diacrônico, temporal e incremental para capturar variações semânticas ao longo do tempo. Os resultados preliminares mostram mudanças na estabilidade dos significados de conceitos como “raça”, “gênero” e “classe”. Apresentamos também SKINNER, um componente de IA explicável (XAI) que rastreia contextos linguísticos específicos, contribuindo para a transparência dos resultados. Concluímos que a captura completa de “espaços de experiência” requer modelos mais complexos e um corpus de dados mais amplo. O próximo passo do projeto é escalar os dados e usar modelos baseados na arquitetura Transformer para uma representação mais precisa dos conceitos históricos. Este trabalho é parte de um projeto interdisciplinar que busca contribuir para uma história digital teoricamente orientada que integre abordagens quantitativas e qualitativas, aliando erudição e análise de big data.
Multidirectional Memory
Authors: Costa Braga Sabrina
Published: September 2024

This article aims to point to the multidirectionality between the memory of the Holocaust and the memory of the Brazilian military dictatorship based on the analysis of two literary works written by Brazilian authors, namely Bernardo Kucinski’s K. Relato de uma Busca and Chico Buarque’s O Irmão Alemão. Such analysis requires a multidirectional approach to intersecting different histories so that the concept of multidirectional memory will be methodologically mobilized. The recognition of the Shoah in the collective memory offers a counterpoint to the forgetfulness and denialism that accompany the remembrance of the Brazilian military dictatorship. At the same time, fictional literature becomes a privileged means for the articulation of different memories and for the attempt to work-through the past in the face of the gaps inherent to trauma.

Authors: Ignatyev Aleksey
Published: September 2024

It is not always possible to achieve the required characteristics of soils that would provide the necessary durability and strength during the operation of automobile roads. In this regard, the technology of soil reinforcement with lime, which allows to improve significantly the characteristics of the soil, is widely practiced. The paper presents the results of experimental studies. They are aimed at studying the peculiarities of lime impact on sand characteristics and time of soil holding at optimum humidity in sealed packages. The paper shows that the introduction of 5% lime helps to increase the optimum moisture content of sand by 1% and provides a 5% increase in the skeletal density of the soil-lime mixture compared to unstrengthened soil. The optimum curing time for fine sand strengthened with lime is 2 h. The results obtained open a wide range of possibilities for further research on soil strengthening for road construction.

Authors: Tsybakin Sergey , Titunin Andrey , Tsvetkov Danil
Published: September 2024

The paper presents the results of the study on a model of a glued wooden beam with composite reinforcement. The authors use a software package using the finite element method COMSOL Multiphysics to model and study the stress-strain state of spatial multilayer wooden structures with reinforcement. The main focus is on analyzing the stress and strain characteristics of the beam under various loads. The paper considers the advantages of composite reinforcement efficiency and its influence on increasing the strength and durability of wooden structures. The authors pay special attention to the integration of experimentally obtained characteristics of wood and composite materials into the numerical model. It increases the accuracy of the modelling results. When constructing the 3D model, we have used a simplified wooden model as a transversal-isotropic body. It allows taking into account uncertainties on orientation to the tangential and radial directions in the beam. The results obtained confirm the increased load carrying capacity and reduced deformations in the beam due to the use of composite reinforcement compared to traditional wooden structures. The use of a 3D model of a glued beam with composite reinforcement also provides reduced research costs compared to in-situ experiments.

Authors: De Castro Onesimo Martins , Hitotuzi Nilton Varela , Tatagiba Alessandro Borges , Vale Maria da Conceição Queiroz
Published: September 2024

This study, conducted as part of a project at the Federal University of Western Pará, re-evaluates the phonological system of the Zo’é language to address discrepancies in phonetic and phonological interpretations identified since the 1990s. Central to this research is the reinterpretation of ambiguous sounds, such as affricates, labialized, and palatalized consonants, as well as approximants. Utilizing historical data and recent recordings, the study identifies systematic processes preserving syllable patterns, including syllable restructuring at morpheme boundaries. The findings propose that sounds like [kʲ], [gʲ], [ŋʲ], [pʲ], [bʲ], [hʲ], [mʲ], [kw], [ʧw], [gw], [ʧ], and [ʤ] function as simple sounds. Additionally, the study explores the complex role of glides [w] and [j], suggesting their dual interpretation as consonants in onset positions and vowels in coda positions. By resolving phonological ambiguities and establishing a cohesive phonetic framework, this research lays the groundwork for a unified orthographic system for the Zo’é language, contributing significantly to its linguistic documentation and preservation.

Authors: Lachyan Abhishek , Khunger Niti , Bharti Rekha , Sharma Roshni , Mehrotra Krati , Goyal Abhay
Published: September 2024

Introduction: Reproductive health is essential for women’s overall well-being, yet vaginal infections like Bacterial Vaginosis (BV), Candidiasis, and Trichomoniasis are prevalent and can lead to severe complications if left untreated. In high-income countries, healthcare systems are generally equipped to handle these infections; however, in resource-limited settings, barriers such as geographic isolation, financial constraints, and social stigmas hinder access to effective care. Self-collected vaginal swabs present a promising alternative to traditional physician-collected samples, offering potential benefits in these underserved regions. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the feasibility, diagnostic accuracy, and community acceptance of self-collected vaginal swabs compared to physician-collected samples for diagnosing bacterial vaginosis, candidiasis, and trichomoniasis in resource-limited settings, and to explore strategies for the broader implementation of this approach to improve women’s reproductive health. Methods: This narrative review synthesizes literature on the effectiveness, feasibility, and community acceptance of self-collected vaginal swabs compared to physician-collected samples for diagnosing BV, Candidiasis, and Trichomoniasis. A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Google Scholar, and institutional repositories for studies from January 2000 to May 2024. The review encompasses various sections, including background on the significance of timely diagnosis, initiatives empowering women through self-collection, challenges and successes of these initiatives, and strategies for quality assurance and policy advocacy.
Results: Self-collected vaginal swabs were found to be as accurate as physician-collected samples in diagnosing BV, Candidiasis, and Trichomoniasis. The method enhances accessibility and reduces stigma, showing potential for broader application in community health settings. Conclusion: Self-collected vaginal swabs represent a viable solution to reproductive health challenges in resource-limited settings. They offer comparable diagnostic accuracy, enhance accessibility, and can reduce cultural barriers to seeking care. Future efforts should focus on community education, technological innovations, and policy reforms to maximize the effectiveness and sustainability of this approach in improving global women’s health.

Published: September 2024

In response to the increasing need for enhanced occupational safety in cold storage facilities, this study presents the design and validation of a mechatronic time control device specifically developed for monitoring the exposure times of warehouse operators in a multinational company. Over the past two decades, Ecuador has significantly increased regulations to safeguard worker health and safety. In compliance with these regulations, this research addresses the challenges operators face when exposed to sub-zero temperatures during their work shifts. The proposed system integrates mechanical, electronic, and control components to systematically track and manage operators' time within cold rooms, ensuring compliance with predefined safety thresholds. A NodeMCU microcontroller, digital temperature sensors, and a robust communication interface form the device's core. This device records entry and exit times, monitors ambient conditions, and triggers alerts when exposure limits are approached. Extensive validation was conducted using a 3D-printed resin prototype, demonstrating the device's capability to function effectively in harsh environments. The system's efficacy was evaluated through real-world testing, where operators used the prototype during their shifts. Data collected confirmed the device's reliability in tracking exposure times and enhancing worker safety.

Authors: Vanegas Zabala Gloria , Samaniego Franklin , Urquizo-Alvarez Cecilia Estefania
Published: September 2024

Atmospheric temperature describes the specific heat content of the air at particular places and times. In this sense, the presented work proposes a multivariable system that takes data sets of different climatological variables, with the aim of regulating the temperature level. The diversity in climatological variables significantly affects precipitation, humidity, wind speed and temperature. Thus, a study has been carried out on these variables in terms of nonlinear dynamics. The aim of the work is to obtain a better understanding of the dynamics of local climatological variables. On the other hand, due to the fact that the time series analyzed are small, the analysis becomes complex, at the moment of joining all the variables in conjunction, and processing them by means of multivariate statistical prediction methodologies. The results have shown the mean values in the different variables with which a temperature is maintained between  and , which shows possible work with multi-objective optimization of the obtained model.

Published: September 2024

Three-vessel coronary atherosclerotic disease (CAD) presents a clinical challenge in managing heart cardiac patients, especially when they resist undergoing interventional therapies such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). This article presents a challeging case report of a patient with three-vessel CAD who refused invasive therapies and was managed solely through medical treatment. It also critically reviews the literature on the atual benefits and drawbacks of medical treatment versus interventional therapies in multivessel CAD. The recommendations from Cardiology Societies, as well as data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs), were critically analyzed, comparing outcomes such as mortality, morbidity, and quality of life, in order to assess the actual magnitude   of benefit across different therapeutic modalities. In selected cases, the current optimized medical therapy (OMT) alone may be a viable alternative, particularly for patients who refuse invasive interventions.

Writs and Rights: A Comprehensive Study of Judicial Remedies in India
Authors: Pawandeep Kaur
Published: September 2024

The Indian Constitution give High Courts the power to issue writs to authorities, directing them to take or avoid from taking activities that are needed by law and the Constitution. Even before independence, several Indian High Courts had some few writs jurisdiction; however, the true extent and berth of this power have only been fully pour by High Courts after the Indian Constitution, which guarantees basic rights, came into effect. All Indian courts are obligated to provide appellate and supervisory jurisdiction over district and subordinate courts within the territories they oversee. This means that high courts may have the most extensive caseload of any court level. Research has indicated that the maximum Due to a combination of a lack of human resources and an inadequate case load, High Courts in India frequently experience delays and backlogs in cases. The community of the court to judge whether legislative acts are constitutional is called as judicial review of legislative acts. Enabling judicial review of State security measures that result in an unauthorized deprivation of an individual's liberty is the primary goal of writ of habeas corpus. Instead, then punishing any officials in charge of their incarceration, the purpose of the writ is to release the individual from unlawful cure. These are the writs that are explicitly mentioned in the Constitution tonight: Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Certiorari, Prohibition, and Quo Warranto. All forms of the government apart from dictatorship must have a robust, impartial, and independent judiciary. The judiciary is essential to the interpretation and application of the law in any nation and resolving conflicts that arise between citizens as well as between citizens and the state. When a written constitution is in place, the courts also carry out the expensive duty of conserve the supremacy of the document by explain and distinguish its provisions and check that all authorities endure within it enclose.

Authors: Nikhil Phool  , Dr. Mohd Rafiq Dar
Published: September 2024

This paper examines the election laws and electoral reforms in India and the United Kingdom, highlighting their evolution, current frameworks, and ongoing challenges. India, the world's largest democracy, operates under a legal structure largely defined by the Representation of the People Act, 1951, and is overseen by the Election Commission of India. The Indian electoral system, based on the First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) model, has undergone significant reforms to address issues of transparency, voter fraud, and campaign finance, including the introduction of electronic voting machines (EVMs) and Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trails (VVPATs).
In contrast, the United Kingdom's electoral system, rooted in centuries-old traditions, is regulated by laws such as the Representation of the People Acts and the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act, 2000. While the UK also employs the FPTP system, it faces criticism for not reflecting the proportionality of votes. Recent reforms in the UK have focused on improving voter registration, addressing electoral fraud, and debating alternative voting methods like the Single Transferable Vote (STV) to enhance democratic representation.
The study identifies both similarities and divergences in the electoral processes of these two democracies, emphasizing the impact of their respective legal frameworks on electoral integrity and democratic participation. It also explores ongoing debates and proposed reforms aimed at enhancing the inclusiveness, fairness, and transparency of elections in both nations.

Etnomatemática e decolonialidade: para além da epistemologia eurocêntrica
Authors: Castro Raimundo Santos de
Published: September 2024

Este estudo examina a convergência entre Etnomatemática e Decolonialidade, destacando como essas duas epistemologias se complementam na crítica às estruturas de poder que sustentam a hegemonia do conhecimento eurocêntrico. A Etnomatemática, elaborada por Ubiratan D’Ambrósio, questiona a concepção tradicional da matemática como uma ciência universal e neutra, propondo uma perspectiva que reconhece e valoriza os conhecimentos matemáticos desenvolvidos por diferentes culturas ao longo da história. Essa abordagem rompe com a ideia de que a matemática é exclusivamente um produto da civilização ocidental e insere a prática matemática em contextos sociais e culturais variados. Por sua vez, a decolonialidade, discutida por pensadores como Aníbal Quijano e Walter Mignolo, critica a colonialidade do saber, que impôs a supremacia do conhecimento ocidental como universal. A decolonialidade visa a abertura de espaços para epistemologias alternativas, especialmente as que emergem de povos historicamente marginalizados e subjugados pelo colonialismo. A articulação entre Etnomatemática e Decolonialidade oferece uma via promissora para a construção de um conhecimento mais inclusivo, pluralista e democrático. No campo educacional, essa integração promove a valorização da diversidade cultural e epistemológica, permitindo que o ensino da matemática, por exemplo, seja repensado de forma a incluir saberes não-hegemônicos. Ao fazer isso, essas abordagens contribuem para a formação de um espaço pedagógico que respeita as múltiplas formas de conhecimento e desafia as imposições coloniais no campo acadêmico.

Authors: Santana Thiago Coelho de , Couto Edvaldo Souza
Published: September 2024

No cenário contemporâneo, as interseções entre educação, cultura e performances ganham destaque. Este artigo examina as pedagogias e performances corporais de Rita Von Hunty, explorando como sua presença desafia normas de gênero e sexualidade, contribuindo para discussões amplas sobre os estudos culturais. Nesse contexto, o objetivo do artigo foi analisar performances de construção corporal da drag Rita Von Hunty nos vídeos publicados no Canal Tempero Drag entre os anos de 2021 e 2022. O método utilizado foi o qualitativo, de cunho descritivo e analítico, utilizando uma estratégia metodológica de observação não participante entre setembro de 2022 e março de 2023. Os dados foram coletados a partir de 13 vídeos com mais de 400 mil visualizações. A técnica de análise utilizada foi a análise cultural, e foram analisados, na composição corporal, aspectos de maquiagem, vestuário e cabelo/peruca. Ao analisar os 13 vídeos da Rita Von Hunty, observa-se que sua performance é coesa em relação ao figurino e à estética e repleta de pedagogia sobre modos de ser drag. Embora haja variedade nas perucas e figurinos, a maquiagem permanece consistente para manter a sua identificação. Guilherme Terreri, ao se apresentar como Rita Von Hunty em seu canal, utiliza seu corpo como instrumento político, desafiando normas sociais e culturais de identidade de gênero e sexualidade. Esse uso performático e discursivo do corpo visa explorar possibilidades de subversão e resistência.
Ações de geração alternativa de energia sustentável na Amazônia na compensação da degradação hidrológica pelas hidrelétricas
Authors: Silva Marcelo Loyola da , Catai Rodrigo Eduardo
Published: September 2024

A Amazônia é um bioma único no mundo, é de uma riqueza de biodiversidade imensurável, com 25% da biodiversidade do planeta. A Amazônia é uma região rica em água doce, com a bacia do Rio Amazonas gerando entre 16% a 20% de toda a água doce do planeta e contendo, inclusive, o Rio Amazonas que é o rio mais extenso e volumoso do mundo. A bacia amazônica contem, ainda, mais espécies de peixes do que qualquer outro sistema fluvial existente mas, que entretanto, apresenta muitas fragilidades, inclusive porque a legislação para a proteção da Amazônia é frágil e carece de reformulação. No sentido de buscar mitigar os impactos negativos da construção de hidrelétricas, especialmente na degradação hidrológica, que afeta ecossistemas e comunidades locais; ações de geração alternativa de energia sustentável na Amazônia se apresentam como uma ótima solução. O presente artigo utiliza métodos de pesquisa bibliográfica e descritiva para propor a apresentação de alternativas, potenciais e viáveis, existentes no setor energético, em contraponto à geração de energia por hidrelétricas, para o bioma Amazônia, considerando suas características intrínsecas.
Perspectivas sobre autoeficacia y procrastinación académica desde diferentes estilos de aprendizaje en estudiantes de bachillerato
Authors: Rodríguez Guardado María del Socorro , Juárez Díaz Catalina
Published: September 2024

Introducción: los estudios que atienden a la diversidad de estilos de aprendizaje, la autoeficacia y procrastinación académica para profundizar en su relación en favor de un mejor aprovechamiento escolar se han intensificado; por ello, la pregunta a responder en este estudio es ¿cuáles son las perspectivas del estudiantado de bachillerato con diferentes estilos de aprendizaje sobre la autoeficacia y la procrastinación académica? Para dar respuesta, el objetivo fue identificar las perspectivas del estudiantado de bachillerato, con diferentes estilos de aprendizaje, sobre la autoeficacia y la procrastinación académica. Metodología: se siguió un método cualitativo de paradigma interpretativo con enfoque hermenéutico en el que participaron voluntariamente nueve estudiantes (tres mujeres, seis hombres) de un bachillerato público de Puebla (México), con edad promedio de 16,6 años. Se empleó, antes del estudio el cuestionario Quirón Test y, posteriormente la entrevista semiestructurada para la obtención de información. Resultados y discusión: las participaciones evidenciaron que el establecimiento de metas en los estilos de aprendizaje, las asignaturas y las tareas asignadas influyen en su autoeficacia y procrastinación. La falta de gestión de materiales, actividades y distractores causan, en gran medida, la dilación de los deberes escolares. Conclusiones: se sugiere promover estrategias pedagógicas innovadoras en los ambientes escolares para atender a los diferentes estilos de aprendizaje del estudiantado y lograr mayor autoeficacia y menor procrastinación académica.

The National Education Policy (NEP)-2020 will bring flexibility to the curriculum through a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach, a new assessment process, resource empowerment, multiple exit options, and encouraging internationalization. Adopting an open curriculum with transdisciplinary course patterns, including flexibility in electives, has led to progress in skill development, holistic development, community engagement, technological integration, environmental education, and value-based education. Ranking and accreditation will have a significant impact on the quality of education and research. It is necessary to frame an education policy that will give better results in creativity, development of critical thinking, decision-making skills, and problem-solving abilities. The new reforms aim to enhance the quality and effectiveness of future-ready higher education institutions in India. In this paper, an attempt has been made to present various reforms in the Indian higher education system, its regulatory structure, and teaching pedagogy.

A classe das aves corresponde ao maior número de atendimentos em Centros de Triagem de Animais Silvestres no Brasil, e os exames complementares estão assumindo um papel importante para monitoramento e avaliação prognóstica do paciente aviário. A gasometria é um exame complementar que possibilita a análise dos gases sanguíneos, e pode ser utilizado para obtenção de informações do equilíbrio ácido-base, monitoramento da perfusão e metabolismo tecidual, comprometimento do sistema pulmonar e renal e avaliação prognóstica do paciente. Há poucos estudos que estabelecem parâmetros gasométricos para aves, sendo que para a espécie Ramphastos dicolorus não existe nenhum estudo publicado até o momento. Desta forma, o objetivo deste trabalho foi estabelecer os parâmetros gasométricos venosos em um grupo de tucanos-de-bico-verde (R. dicolorus), atendidos no Núcleo de Reabilitação da Fauna Silvestre e Centro de Triagem de Animais Silvestres (NURFS/CETAS) da Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel). Neste estudo, os animais foram contidos fisicamente e as amostras foram coletadas por punção da veia jugular direita. O processamento foi realizado em equipamento automático, onde foram medidos potencial hidrogeniônico (pH), pressão parcial de oxigênio (PO2), pressão parcial de dióxido de carbono (PCO2), bicarbonato (HCO3), excesso de base (BE), sódio (Na), cloreto (Cl), cálcio ionizado (iCa), potássio (K) e ânion gap (AG). Todos os animais incluídos neste estudo foram considerados hígidos, a coleta de sangue pré-estabelecida foi de 0,5 ml para todos os animais e temperatura das amostras foi padronizada a 40 °C. Os resultados obtidos apresentaram uma média e desvio padrão de pH (7,5 ± 0,1), PO2 (45,4 ± 5,5), PCO2 (34,9 mmHg ± 6,5), SatO2 (85,3% ± 5,8), HCO3 (28,0 mmol/L ± 2,3), TCO2 (29,1 ± 2,3), BE (5,0 mmol/L ± 2,5), Na (147,9 mmol/L ± 2,9), Cl (108,4 mmol/L ± 3,3), iCa (1,2 mmol/L ± 0,0), K (3,8 mmol/L ± 0,6) e AG (15,3 mmol/L ± 1,8). Com isso, nosso estudo fornece dados gasométricos de sangue venoso desconhecidos para a espécie, com resultados que podem ser utilizados como referência na rotina clínica e prognóstica dessas aves.
