Published: December 2022

Introduction: Traumatic memories are a core symptom of PTSD and stress-related disorders, as well as a transdiagnostic symptom found in many different mental disorders. There are effective psychological treatments for PTSD symptoms, but access to these specialized treatments can be difficult and expensive. One potential for treatment is the use of visuospatial tasks to interrupt memory reconsolidation processes. The aim of this pilot study was to determine the usefulness of Motor Interference Therapy (MIT), which consists of a visuospatial task verbally directed through an audio, for the treatment of traumatic memories.
Methods: We conducted a randomized, double blind, controlled study. 28 participants with at least one traumatic memory causing distress were randomized to receive either MIT or an abbreviated version of Jacobson´s Progressive Muscle Relaxation Technique (PMR). Both interventions were administered twice for a total duration of 30 minutes. The assessment scales (PTSD Symptom Severity Scale-Revised, visual-analog scale (EQ-VAS) from EuroQol 5D, and a visual analogue scale of traumatic memory distress) were administered by a blinded researcher to the treatment group in three times: before the intervention, one week after the intervention and one month later. Only the visual-analog scale that rated the level of stress provoked by the traumatic memory was also applied immediately after the intervention. For each dependent variable a Group (PMR, MIT) x Session analysis of variance was conducted with repeated measures on the second variable. Critical Group x Session interactions were analyzed further with pairwise comparisons. Analyses of covariance were conducted to evaluate posttest scores adjusted for any pretest differences.
Results: Mean scores improved from pretest to posttests for both interventions on all seven measures, and these improvements were statistically significant in all seven cases for MIT and in five of seven cases for PMR. Significant statistical differences were observed between groups on the visual analog scale for traumatic memories: MR scores declined from pretest to the immediate posttest (p = .002) but showed no further decline. MIT scores also declined from pretest to immediate posttest (p < .001), but they continued to improve over the subsequent week (p = .002) and were sustained one month following treatment. Mean MIT scores were lower than mean PMR scores at one week and one month (ps < .002). no adverse events were reported in either group.
Conclusion: MIT is an easy to apply technique that requires few resources and little training. The results strongly suggests that MIT could be a useful tool in the treatment of traumatic memories and yields proof-of-principle support for conducting future research with a large cohort, properly powered to stablish efficacy.

Longitudinal changes in lifestyle behaviors and physical fitness of Japanese preschoolers during the COVID-19 pandemic: Results from a 7-year longitudinal study
Authors: Guo Hongzhi , Kim Hyunshik
Published: December 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic appears to have had a serious adverse impact on the healthy behaviors of preschoolers, in particular outdoor play. However, details of its impact are still unclear. Thus, in this study, we investigate changes in lifestyle behavior and physical fitness of Japanese preschoolers during the pandemic. We collected longitudinal data before and during the pandemic and objectively assessed changes in the physical fitness and lifestyle (outdoor playtime, screen time, and sleep) of Japanese preschoolers. Participants were 4,882 preschoolers in Hiroshima who underwent objective health and fitness assessments (25-m sprint, standing long jump, tennis ball throw); their parents answered questions on their demographics, physical activity, screen time, and sleep duration. Chi-squared test, ANOVA, and t-test were applied. The results showed a significant increase in screen time during the pandemic (p < 0.05), reduction in outdoor playtime in all preschool children (p < 0.001), and deterioration in all three fitness outcomes (running, jumping, and throwing) in all preschool children (p < 0.001). The results showed negative effects of the pandemic on children’s health and lifestyle behaviors and fitness, suggesting the need for various interventions to promote physical activity under pandemic conditions.
Datenschutz und Umweltschutz - ein Dilemma?
Authors: Morand Anne-Sophie , Obrecht Liliane
Published: December 2022

Rechenzentren (auch Datenzentren, data centres) werden in Zukunft knapp vier Prozent des gesamten schweizerischen Stromverbrauchs ausmachen. Ihr hoher Strombedarf und ihre enorme Wärmeerzeugung lassen es sinnvoll erscheinen, Rechenzentren in Regionen mit umweltfreundlicher Stromerzeugung oder kühlen Aussentemperaturen zu platzieren. Die Realität zeigt, dass insbesondere die USA als attraktiver Standort für den Bau von Rechenzentren gilt. Wird mit Cloud-Lösungen ausländischer Anbieter gearbeitet, macht es aus datenschutzrechtlicher Sicht durchaus Sinn, trotzdem Rechenzentren in der Schweiz zu nutzen. Um den negativen Umwelteinfluss dabei zu reduzieren, sind insbesondere die Kantone gefragt, gesetzgeberisch tätig zu werden und ihre Energiegesetze um verpflichtende Bestimmungen zur Abwärmenutzung und Energieeffizienz zu ergänzen.

Les centres de données (ou data centers) représenteront à l'avenir près de quatre pour cent de la consommation totale d'électricité en Suisse. Au regard de leur besoin élevé en électricité et leur immense capacité de production de chaleur, il semble judicieux de les placer dans des régions où la production d'électricité est respectueuse de l'environnement ou dans des zones climatiquement froides. La pratique montre que les États-Unis sont particulièrement attrayants et appréciés pour la construction de tels centres. Si l'on travaille avec des solutions cloud de fournisseurs étrangers, il est préférable, du point de vue de la protection des données, de recourir malgré tout à des centres de données en Suisse. Afin de réduire l'impact négatif sur l'environnement, les cantons sont invités à légiférer et à compléter leurs lois sur l'énergie par des dispositions contraignantes sur l'utilisation des rejets thermiques et l'efficacité énergétique.
Historians of Pre-Revolution Period in the Soviet Dissertation System M.D. Prisyolkov (1939) and A.I. Andreev (1940) Defending the Doctoral Dissertations
Authors: Алеврас Н.Н. , Гришина Н.В.
Published: December 2022

Статья посвящена становлению советской диссертационной системы (1930-е гг.). В основе авторской гипотезы находится представление о том, что советская диссертационная система выросла из дореволюционного опыта присуждения ученых степеней. Апробация гипотезы осуществлена на примере диссертационных историй М.Д. Присёлкова и А.И. Андреева – историков, чье вхождение в научное сообщество началось в досоветский период, а достижение высшей ученой степени доктора наук произошло на рубеже 1930–1940-х гг. Научные пути историков позволяют не только оценить степень преемственности /разрыва советской диссертационной системы по отношению к дореволюционному опыту, но и проследить формирование и обновление научных концепций историков в области источниковедения.

The article describes the formation of the Soviet dissertation system (the 1930s). The authors propose a hypothesis that the Soviet dissertation system goes back to the pre-revolu-tion practice of granting a degree. The hypothesis is approved on the dissertation experience of M.D. Prisyolkov and A.I. Andreev. The historians started their scientific career in the pre-revolution period while being granted a doctoral degree at the turn of the 1930s-1940s. Their academic tracks allow the authors not only to evaluate the continuity/discontinuity level of the Soviet dissertation system and the pre-revolution practice but also to trace the formation and updating of historical scientific conceptions in source studies.
The Idea of the «Nazione Piemontese» in Italian-French political thought. Patriotic discussion of 1799
Authors: Митрофанов А.А.
Published: December 2022

Статья посвящена рассмотрению концепта «нации» в политической франко-итальянской публицистике Пьемонта периода Французской революции и французской оккупации. Анализ публицистики 1799 - начала 1800-х гг. показывает, что в дискуссии о судьбе Пьемонта активно участвовали как радикальные, так и умеренные республиканцы, члены различных клубов и обществ. Идея французского правительства и части итальянских республиканцев о присоединении Пьемонта к Французской республике вызвала мощное сопротивление среди интеллектуалов. «Патриоты» 1799 г. рассматривали создание особой Пьемонтской республики как часть проекта будущего объединения Италии. Они обосновывали суверенитет «пьемонтской нации» или «субальпийского народа», апеллируя к чувству местного патриотизма, национальному характеру, языку, истории, традициям и вере. Анализируется влияние, которое оказали пьемонтские интеллектуалы конца XVIII в. на становление традиций политического партикуляризма и местного национализма в революционный период. Отмечается, что идея особой «пьемонтской нации» получила развитие и в публицистике эпохи Наполеоновского господства в Италии.

The article is devoted to the consideration of the concept of «nation» in the political thought of Piedmont during the French Revolution and French occupation. Analysis of political writings of 1799 – early 1800s. shows that both radical and moderate Republicans, members of various clubs and societies, actively participated in the discussion about the fate of Piedmont. The idea of ​​the French government and part of the Italian republicans to annex Piedmont to the French Republic provoked strong resistance among intellectuals. The Patriots of 1799 saw the creation of a special Piedmont republic as part of the project for the future unification of Italy. They substantiated the sovereignty of the «Piedmontese nation» or «subalpine people» by appealing to the feeling of local patriotism, national character, language, history, traditions and faith. The influence of the intellectuals of Piedmont in the late 18th century is analyzed on the establishment of traditions of political particularism and local nationalism in the revolutionary period. It is noted that the idea of ​​a special «Piedmont nation» was also developed in the political literature of the era of Napoleonic rule in Italy.
Персидский исторический роман и национальная идентичность
Authors: Фарахмандфар М. , Абдоллахи М.
Published: December 2022

В статье обсуждается, как идентичности конструируются и текстуально артикулируются через исторические романы, которые переносят прошлое в настоящее и связывают национальную идентичность людей с воспоминаниями о предках, со славным прошлым своего народа. Возникновение исторического романа в Иране совпало с иранской Конституционной революцией 1906 года, которую многие критики и историки приветствовали как важное время социально-политического пробуждения, которое способствовало защите культурного наследия прошлого и подъему национального самосознания. Историография предоставила иранским писателям плодородную почву для восстановления чувства национальной идентичности. Цель данной статьи – показать, как в персидских исторических романах выдвигаются на первый план симбиотические отношения между памятью и идентичностью, и раскрыть национальное значение этих текстов.

The present article discusses how terrains of belonging are constructed and articulated textually through historical novels which bring the past into the present, and link the national identity of people to memories of their ancestors, to their nation's glorious past. The rise of the historical novel in Iran was concomitant with Iran's Constitutional Revolution of 1906, which was hailed by many a critic and historian as a major time of sociopolitical awakening which contributed to protecting the cultural legacies of the past and keeping aglow the propitious light of belonging and nationhood. Historiography has been a fecund ground for Iranian fiction-writers in which to retrieve a sense of national identity. This article aims at showing how Persian historical novels foreground the symbiotic relationship between remembering and belonging, and open up texts to their national significances.

Simultaneous heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification potential of Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 isolated from lignite mine waste and its role ammonia removal from mine waste water
Authors: Karuriya Silisti , Choudhary Sangeeta
Published: December 2022

Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 was isolated from a lignite mine waste site in the Barmer basin, Rajasthan, India. The strain is efficient in heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification. This bacterium could remove approximately more than 95% of NH4+, NO3−, and NO2− in 24 h. The average nitrogen (N) removal rate of the strain was found to be 4.775 mg/L/H, 5.66 mg/L/H, and 5.01 mg/L/H for NH4+, NO3−, and NO2−, respectively. Bioaugmentation of mine wastewater with Paenibacillus sp. strain GLM-08 demonstrated N removal of 86.6% under conditions of a high load of NH4+. The presence of potential genetic determinants (nxrB, nirS, and nosZ) having role in heterotrophic nitrification and aerobic denitrification was confirmed by PCR based analysis. The findings show that this bacterium performs simultaneous nitrification and denitrification and has a high nitrogen removal efficiency indicating the potential application of the strain in the treatment of wastewater.

Published: December 2022

Present study proposed the synthesis of mixed p-type and n-type nanocomposite heterostructures by co-precipitation method. The as-synthesized heterostructures were characterized through different characterization techniques. The as-synthesized Bi2WO6 and Bi2O3-ZnO heterostructures were tested as photocatalysts during the photodegradation of Bisphenol A (BPA). The Bi2O3-ZnO heterostructure nanocomposite was found to be a more effective photocatalyst than Bi2WO6. The effect of operating parameters including catalytic dose (0.02–0.15 gL-1), initial BPA concentration (5–20 mgL-1), temperature change (5–20 °C) and solution pH changes (4, 5, 7, and 8) were evaluated with Bi2O3-ZnO under UV-light irradiation by selecting a 300 W Xe lamp. More than 90% BPA was degraded with 0.15 gL−1 Bi2O3-ZnO, keeping 1.0 mM H2O2 concentration fixed in 250 mL of reaction suspension. The HPLC and GC-MS were used to detect the reaction intermediates and final products. A plausible degradation pathway was proposed on the basis of the identification of reaction intermediates. Repeatability test analysis confirmed that the as-synthesized catalyst showed superb catalytic performance on its removal trend. The kinetics of degradation of BPA were well fitted by the power laws model. With the order of reaction being 0.6, 0.9, 1.2, and 1.3 for different operating parameters, i.e., catalyst dose, initial pH, temperature, and initial BPA concentration.

La información que arrojan las evaluaciones estandarizadas favorece la implementación de medidas que permitan mejorar la comprensión lectora. Frente a ello, el siguiente estudio consiste en el diseño, elaboración, validación y aplicación de un instrumento de evaluación a estudiantes de segundo medio que mida de forma progresiva la comprensión lectora. La investigación es descriptiva, utilizando para la recogida de datos la ejecución de un pilotaje. Por su parte, el análisis de la información corresponde a dos etapas: en primer lugar, la determinación del coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach para la fiabilidad y consistencia interna del instrumento; en segundo lugar, la aplicación del Análisis Factorial Exploratorio (AFE) para la validez del constructo, utilizando el Método de Componente Principales (MCP). Los resultados, de la primera etapa, indican que el instrumento inicial evidencia una consistencia y fiabilidad por debajo de lo establecido: un coeficiente inaceptable de .471. La segunda etapa, mediante el AFE, agrupa las 22 preguntas en 9 factores, los que explican el 59% de la varianza, sin embargo, la Matriz de Componentes Rotados permite extraer una estructura subyacente compuesta por 5 factores consideradas subescalas o instrumentos, lo que permite lograr el propósito de la validación del instrumento.

Los centros de apoyo a la docencia de las universidades chilenas son entidades que buscan contribuir al desarrollo e innovación en los procesos de fortalecimiento de la docencia. Sin embargo, existe escasa información que permita conocer la perspectiva docente para mejorar el apoyo de estas unidades en las universidades de Chile. Este trabajo de investigación tiene por objetivo interpretar la perspectiva docente de los participantes de los Centros de Apoyo a la Docencia. El enfoque metodológico es cualitativo con diseño descriptivo-interpretativo y de corte transversal. La muestra es de carácter no probabilística e intencionada de 16 docentes que han participado en los centros de apoyo a la docencia de distintas universidades chilenas. Para la recolección de la información se utilizaron las técnicas de entrevista semiestructurada y revisión documental. Los resultados aportados por los participantes demuestran una valoración positiva de los centros de apoyo a la docencia en el mejoramiento de sus prácticas pedagógicas, particularmente en el uso de TICs y nuevas metodologías de enseñanza. También, se evidencia la necesidad de incorporar un apoyo más personalizado que implique una formación relacionada con la práctica docente de sus disciplinas.
An Arabidopsis Maternal Effect Embryo Arrest Protein is an Adenylyl Cyclase with Predicted Roles in Embryo Development and Response to Abiotic Stress
Authors: Kawadza David , Dikobe Tshegofatso , Chatukuta Patience , Takundwa Mutsa , Bobo Enetia , Sehlabane Katlego , Ruzvidzo Oziniel
Published: December 2022

Background:

Second messengers play a key role in linking environmental stimuli to cellular responses. One such messenger, 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) generated by adenylyl cyclase (AC), has long been established as an essential signaling molecule in many physiological processes of higher plants, including growth, development, and stress response. Very few ACs have been identified in plants so far, so more must be sought.

Objective:

To test the probable AC activity of an Arabidopsis MEE (AtMEE) protein and infer its function bioinformatically.

Methods:

A truncated version of the AtMEE protein (encoded by At2g34780 gene) harboring the annotated AC catalytic center (AtMEE-AC) was cloned and expressed in BL21 Star pLysS Escherichia coli cells followed by its purification using the nickel-nitriloacetic acid (Ni-NTA) affinity system. The purified protein was tested for its probable in vitro AC activity by enzyme immunoassay. The AtMEE-AC protein was also expressed in the SP850 mutant E. coli strain, followed by an assessment (visually) of its ability to complement the AC-deficiency (cyaA mutation) in this mutant. Finally, the AtMEE protein was analyzed bioinformatically to infer its probable biological function(s).

Results:

AtMEE is an AC molecule whose in vitro activity is Mn2+-dependent and positively modulated by NaF. Moreover, AtMEE is capable of complementing the AC-deficiency (cyaA) mutation in the SP850 mutant strain. AtMEE is primarily involved in embryo development and also specifically expressed in response to abiotic stress via the MYB expression core motif signaled by cAMP.

Conclusion:

AtMEE is an AC protein whose functions are associated with embryo development and response to abiotic stress.
Analysis on a Typical COVID-19 Outbreak Spread by Tourist Groups
Authors: Zheng Ling , Yao Jinxi , Yu Yunhui , Wang Bo , Luo Bin
Published: December 2022

Background

Novel coronavirus disease (SARS COV-2 infection or COVID-19) is a respiratory tract infection which has been linked with severe acute respiratory syndrome transmitted particularly through touching and respiration. The purpose of this study is to understand the epidemiological characteristics of the COVID-19 cases in a typical tourist-related outbreak and explore the possible route for its transmission.

Methods

All data and epidemiological survey reports of COVID-19 cases in the outbreak were reported by provincial and urban (county) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Health Commissions nationwide from October 16 to November 5, 2021. The epidemiological survey reports included information on gender, age, source of infection (imported from other provinces or locally acquired), daily life track and itinerary, date of symptom onset and date of diagnosis. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, one-way analysis of variance, independent t-test, and Chi-square tests. Histograms and percentage stacked area plots were used to describe the epidemiological characteristics of the outbreaks.

Results

The COVID-19 outbreak associated with the tourist groups has involved 551 COVID-19 cases, with a median age of 44 years (interquartile range: 30-59 years), gradually spreading from the northwestern region to the national level across 15 provinces of China. Fifth cases (16.0%) had traveled to ejin banner, resulting in 68 second-generation cases. The outbreak involved 11 flights and 19 trains, with a total of 27 confirmed cases. An amount of 42 related outbreaks were clustered, of which 21 outbreaks (50.0%) occurred in households and 10 outbreaks (23.81%) in restaurants. About 106 confirmed cases were related to the restaurant gathering. The median incubation period for this COVID-19 outbreak was 7 days (inter-quartile range: 5-10 days).

Conclusions

The survey results indicated that this COVID-19 outbreak originated in Ejina Banner and spread by tourist groups, which was a typical infection outbreak promoted by travel. Our results further confirmed that travel need to be more strictly weighed in pandemic like COVID-19, and people need to pay more attention to the prevention against infectious diseases particularly when traveling in a tourist group.

Em diversos momentos de suas teses Sobre o conceito da História, Walter Benjamin afirma ser imperativo do historiador parar o tempo, fixar o passado e destacá-lo do “tempo vazio e homogêneo” do progresso (1994b, p. 229). O objeto histórico seria o tempo desta imobilização que “estilhaça o contínuo da história” (ibid., p. 262) em direção à redenção. Neste ensaio, proponho um percurso entre três fotografias, interpretadas aqui como imagens dialéticas capazes de condensar passado, presente e futuro num único instante. Através delas, sugiro que desenhemos rupturas na linha temporal do progresso e vislumbremos uma remontagem da história. O ponto de partida desta constelação de imagens é uma fotografia da reinauguração do Padrão dos Descobrimentos, em 1960, durante as Comemorações Henriquinas. Depois, veremos fotografias de Eduardo Viveiros de Castro em comunidades indígenas, nos anos 1980, e de Carlos Vergara no bloco de carnaval do Cacique de Ramos, no Rio de Janeiro, durante a década de 1970. No passado fixado por estas imagens, no tempo suspenso das fotografias, este trabalho vai buscar brechas para um futuro alternativo.

A escrita autobiográfica exige que o escritor se identifique com o narrador e a personagem principal gravadas no papel. O sujeito que se auto-representa identifica-se com uma alteridade de natureza linguística de maneira a poder reflectir acerca de si próprio. Este ensaio pretende demonstrar como o conceito de prosopopeia é pertinente para uma melhor compreensão deste fenómeno auto-reflexivo mediado pela linguagem. De forma a concretizar os argumentos, serão analisados excertos das compilações diarísticas I Had Nowhere to Go (1991) e I Seem to Live (2020), de Jonas Mekas. O objectivo passa por apurar os diferentes papéis que a prosopopeia assume nos seus registos diarísticos e o modo como esta define a sua auto-representação.

A partir da análise de algumas sequências, descrevo o filme como um movimento duplo: por um lado, a figura de Fernandes é conjurada através da mobilização de objectos e lugares associados à sua biografia, tornando o morto vivo e visível; por outro lado, o filme vai além da recuperação da memória daquele homem, e as evidências materiais da sua existência antes servem de veículo para vários dos interesses e temáticas que Reis e Cordeiro desenvolvem noutros filmes. De entre esses interesses, olho com maior detalhe para: a importância atribuída a modos de existência alheados do centro ou da norma; o questionamento acerca de formas possíveis de representação e preservação da realidade; o pensamento dos realizadores sobre cinema enquanto meio de expressão, pensamento e arquivo vivo; uma concepção do mundo em função de recorrências e retornos e da possibilidade de continuar a viver através dos outros.

Published: December 2022

The purpose of this study is to develop and analyze the feasibility of a digital competency measurement tool suitable for the digital native generation. The study was conducted among 394 four-year college students of E University located in Gyeonggi-do. As for the research method, the factors composing digital competency were synthesized through a literature review on the constituent factors of digital competency. The sub-measurement items were developed focusing on the constituent factors of digital competency derived through literature review. As for the data collection method, an online survey webpage was opened, and an e-mail was sent to the participating students so that they could participate in the survey. The collected data were analyzed using the PASW Statistics 18.0 program. First, a frequency analysis was conducted to examine the demographic and sociological factors of the subjects. Furthermore, to find out the digital competency level of university students, the digital native generation, the average value was calculated with descriptive statistics. In addition, factor analysis was performed to analyze the convergent validity of detailed indicators of each area of the digital competency measurement tool. As a result of measuring the digital competency of the students participating in the test, the level of digital competency perceived by the students was found to be generally high, and in particular, the overall average of the sub-factors in the application area showed a high average value for all three sub-factors. Also, as a result of analyzing the validity of the digital competency components, the overall explanatory variance of the 54 component models developed in this study was high.
Judaizm hellenistyczny a antropologia

Antagonism and convergence seem to be two basic options in Judaism's relation to Hellenism. Hellenism influenced a Jewish culture and religion. This influence was characterized by philosophical content and mentally religious, the Greek culture of concepts and thinking. In anthropology it manifested itself in the form of, inter alia, dualistic antagonism, but preserving the Hebrew holism. The Septuagint faced the Hellenistic concept of man, especially Wis. and 4Mac. These writings took into account the pressure on Judaism of Hellenic rationalization of thought, as well as Hellenistic universalism and cosmopolitanism. Anthropological issues in Hellenic Judaism indicate the attractiveness and usefulness of Hellenic anthropology for understanding the biblical vision of man.

Orchid multiplication is often an impediment to the commercial success of important species. In order to have a sowing technique to evaluate the initial growth of Epidendrum schomburgkii Lindl., seedlings from sexual seed 20 mm high were inoculated in vitro in two basal media: Murashige & Skoog (MS) and Knudson (KN) at concentrations of 25 %, 50 %, 75 % and 100 %. After 118 days of cultivation, an average of 5.88 live shoots with an average height of 92.80 mm and an average root length of 80.74 mm were obtained. Significant differences were found for the number of live shoots between concentrations, greater stem height and greater root length, as well as in the mean x concentration interaction. A completely randomized statistical design was applied in a 2 x 3 factorial arrangement, and the SPSS, INFOSTAT and BIOSTAT tests were used for the analysis. In general, the values ​​for MS medium were higher compared to KN medium. Regarding the length of the longest stem, we did not find a statistically significant difference between concentrations, but a clear difference in trends (negative for MS and positive for KN). The growth of roots and stems was visibly higher with the MS medium, with an optimal concentration of 25 %. Therefore, when evaluating the formulas and applied doses, it is concluded that the MS medium at a concentration of 25 % offers the best response in the development of propagules.

Presentamos los resultados de un estudio estratigráfico de una sucesión volcano-sedimentaria del Plioceno superior-Pleistoceno inferior expuesta alrededor y en la zona de las calderas La Reforma y El Aguajito, al norte de Santa Rosalía, en Baja California Sur, México. Esta sucesión forma parte del sustrato de las calderas y se relacionan con las formaciones sedimentarias descritas en la cuenca de Santa Rosalía. La sucesión tiene nueve unidades litológicas, con rocas volcánicas efusivas y explosivas de ambiente subacuoso-subaéreo y rocas siliciclásticas fosilíferas y carbonatadas. Estas unidades fueron agrupadas en dos sucesiones estratigráficas, con base en estudios anteriores, relaciones estratigráficas, tres nuevas edades obtenidas en circones, edades paleontológicas relativas y correlación regional. En orden estratigráfico, estas sucesiones con sus respectivas unidades son: (1) Formación Infierno, consiste en una sucesión de rocas volcano-sedimentarias con una edad de 2.5 Ma cerca de su base y 1.8 Ma en su cima. Se caracteriza por presentar cuatro capas volcánicas interestratificadas con sedimentos fosilíferos y dos capas sedimentarias las cuales se pueden agrupar en las siguientes unidades: ignimbrita Mesa de Enmedio (depósito de bloque de pómez gigante, Plioceno superior), arenisca fosilífera El Yaqui (Pleistoceno inferior), ignimbrita Cueva Amarilla (2.4 Ma), ignimbrita El Carrizo (1.89 Ma), arenisca fosilífera Cueva de Los Fósiles y lava El Azufre (1.8 Ma). (2) Sucesión volcano-sedimentaria Pre-Reforma, yace discordante sobre la Formación Infierno, con evidencias de depositación subacuosa y compuesta por las unidades: volcano-sedimentaria El Contrabando (1.43 Ma), lava Punta Candeleros (1.36 Ma) y en la cima la unidad volcano-sedimentaria La Zorra (1.35 Ma). En la zona estudiada las unidades sedimentarias pertenecientes a la Formación Infierno se caracterizan por contener abundantes fósiles, siendo los más comunes bivalvos de la familia Pectinidae. Con base en el contenido fósil se puede concluir que el ambiente de depósito de la formación Infierno fue de aguas tropicales-subtropicales, que variaron desde zonas intermareales y bahías protegidas, a zonas de plataforma interna con menos de 100 m de profundidad.

ASTRONOMÍA INCLUSIVA
Authors: Argudo-Fernández M.
Published: December 2022

Astronomía Inclusiva (“Inclusive Astronomy” in English) is a multidisciplinary community created in Chile, a country recognised worldwide for the quality of its skies for astronomical observation, which aims to make astronomy an accessible science for everyone. In this contribution, we take a tour of what has motivated us to create this group, mentioning some of the activities we have carried out, and sharing some of the experiences we have learned along the way. Finally, some reflections are made on how we can contribute to creating a welcoming environment in our daily activities.

We introduce Astropáramo: an initiative of science clubs in rural educational institutions in very remote regions of the Santurbán páramo. This initiative uses a mobile laboratory of didactic experiments initially developed by the University of Munich within the project "Climate change: understanding and acting". Taking advantage of the innate charisma for stars in the inhabitants of the mountainous areas of Colombia, we use the teaching of astronomy as a bridge to recognize our planet as the only home and understand the science and importance of climate change. The first version was developed with three educational institutions in the paramo area. The students had synchronous encounters with an instructor via WhatsApp: the only means that the pandemic allowed the connection of students in remote areas of the country. Thanks to this medium, the young people could share their experiences and doubts they encountered in the development of the experiments. Thus, despite the adverse conditions of the pandemic, favorable spaces were generated for debate and the construction of knowledge, demonstrating that science is inclusive, fun, and can be available to everyone.
HOW TO USE SALSAJ SOFTWARE TO PERFORM PHOTOMETRY, ASTROMETRY, IMAGE PROCESSING IN 3D
Authors: Mora J. C.
Published: December 2022

Nowadays we have different types of dedicated and specialized software with innovative tools such as SalsaJ, which allows us to teach and disseminate astronomy to people with some degree of vision loss, with the aim of getting them to observe and study the different astronomical objects through other senses such as touch. Education is very important and fundamental in order to increase inclusion by focusing the teaching of astronomy on ensuring that visual-impaired children, adolescents and adults have access to quality scientific learning.
ASTRONOMY FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION NEEDS
Authors: Sit E. C. L.
Published: December 2022

Astronomy education is a unique field of study with an interdisciplinary exploration of natural science and science communication process, which may be able to provide Diversity Learning through Multiple Intelligence. It could potentially support and provide learning incentives for children with special education needs (SEN), including attention deficit (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and developmental dyslexia. Recently, the IAU National Astronomy Education Coordinator Team (Hong Kong), are conducting action research and observation, exploring different angles of Astronomy by organizing different types of activities, methodologies, and innovative approaches. We wish to explore new methods for motivating children to learn science and design-thinking mindsets through hands-on experience and build up their interest through selfdirected learning and cooperative learning with peer interaction.
LIGHTSOUND: ACCESSIBILITY AND AWARENESS FOR UPCOMING SOLAR ECLIPSES
Authors: Bieryla A. , Hyman S. Ó.
Published: December 2022

People from all over the United States (and abroad) flocked to the path of totality to witness the Great American Solar Eclipse in 2017. The sentiment was the same for the 2019 and 2020 South American eclipses that passed through Chile and Argentina. While a total solar eclipse is typically thought of as a striking visual phenomenon, it is not the only way to observe one, and for blind or low vision individuals, having an alternate medium to observe an eclipse is a necessity. LightSound is a low-cost, hand-held device that was originally developed for the 2017 North American eclipse. It has a very high-dynamic range sensor that converts light to sound in a process called sonification. The sound can be output to headphones or to a speaker during an event to make the entire event more accessible while capturing the dimming of the Sun in the form of sound. All documentation and software needed to build and use the LightSound are open source and free for download and modification. As the 2023 and 2024 North American solar eclipses approach, we aim to increase the number of LightSounds across the paths of totality so that the experiences can be more inclusive and accessible. In the astronomy community, we are holding a series of workshops through the American Astronomical Society to train new users to build and use the devices, but we hope to expand to a more general audience by connecting with organizations such as libraries, museums, national parks, girl/boy scouts, and others groups who we can help to build the necessary devices for communities and events in need. In addition to eclipses, the LightSound has exciting potential for use as a teaching tool at both K-12 levels and undergraduate levels and for raising awareness about sonification as a powerful and important analysis method in science.

Astronomy learning for deaf is currently a remote possibility in Brazil, something that hardly happens or, when it happens, it is usually very limited. In order to improve astronomy education for deaf children and the school-aged youth, it is necessary to expand the resources of the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras, acronym in brazilian portuguese), to strengthen the preparation of teachers, to develop teaching resources more aligned with sensory experience of the deaf and even of rethinking organizational aspects in classroom settings. Astronomy is very important for the educational background of the deaf and has a significant role in its introduction of the fundamentals of science and to motivate students for scientific knowledge.
