Water level measurements using reflected GNSS signals
Authors: Larson Kristine M. , Williams Simon D. P.
Published: November 2023

GNSS Interferometric Reflectometry (GNSS-IR) is a method that can be used to measure water levels. The frequency of the interference pattern created by direct and reflected GNSS signals is used to estimate the height of the GNSS antenna above the reflecting surface. In principle each rising and setting satellite arc that reflects off the water can be used, yielding ~350 water level measurements per day at sites that track the four major constellations and have a good view of the water. Two examples of the GNSS-IR method are presented, one at a coastal site in Australia and the other from the Ems river in Germany. Each site has collocated traditional tide gauge instrumentation. Open source GNSS-IR software is used to analyze the GNSS data from each site. Correlations between GNSS-IR with the traditional gauge are shown to be better than 0.99.

As we celebrate GEBCO’s 120 years of ocean discovery (1903–2023), we do so in a situation
and in an environment that has drastically changed since our last celebration twenty years ago.
We are one of the longest-running ocean mapping data collection, compilation, and distribution
programmes in history. And yet, even after more than a century of activities, we are still only at
the beginning of Earth’s last great mapping endeavour.

On January 15, 2022, Latin America’s largest oil spill in recent history occurred off the Pe-
ruvian coast. The Foreign Ministry announced it was the worst ecological disaster in recent times due to the sheer scale of the spill. The affected area was approximately 11,061 hectares (110.61 km2). Due to the size and location of the oil spill, remote sensing techniques were the most expedient method to obtain a quick assessment of the affected area. Accordingly, satellite imagery was used to monitor the extent and change in the oil spill. This change was measured qualitatively (visual) and quantitatively (Normalised Difference Water Index, NDWI). The quality of the results were hindered by the temporal resolution of each satellite.
Usability of multibeam echosounder for wreck investigations using backscatter and water column data in shallow waters
Authors: Jai Varun
Published: November 2023

With the increasing accuracy of survey equipment and the strict survey standards in modern
times, the use of sophisticated equipment for hydrographic surveys has become standard practice. Multibeam echosounders (MBES) are an essential part of the inventory. This paper presents an analysis of two data sets collected using MBES and examines their applicability for wreck investigation. While the topic of MBES and wreck investigation is vast, this study is limited to two types of MBES in shallow waters. The analysis of the data sets indicates that MBES can effectively be used for wreck investigation in shallower waters when utilizing water column and backscatter data, adhering to the rigorous survey standards of today. This approach offers valuable insights for enhancing wreck investigation capabilities and meeting the demands of modern hydrographic surveys.

Authors: Werner Christoph S. , Gangelhoff Jannis , Frey Simon , Steiger Daniel , Reiterer Alexander
Published: November 2023

The mapping and inspection of underwater topography and infrastructure require precise and robust instrumentation which cannot be completely fulfilled by sonar or camera-based systems. At Fraunhofer IPM we have therefore built a versatile platform that implements all necessary building blocks for various laser scanner configurations targeted at subsea applications. Based on this platform, we present two scanner prototypes: One compact and lightweight multi-wavelength airborne laser scanner for deployment with unmanned aerial vehicles. It is intended for easy and fast shallow water bathymetric and topographic mapping. The second scanner is embedded in a pressure resistant housing and designed for submerged deployment on stationary or moving platforms to facilitate numerous inspection tasks. Initial tests of the scanners have been performed in an excavation pond and on a dedicated underwater measurement range. The resulting point clouds indicate promising performance in terms of resolution, accuracy, and speed. Further work will focus on extensive field tests and software optimization for increased usability.
Crowdsourced bathymetry and its use to support resurvey activity in the North Sea region
Authors: Payne Philip
Published: November 2023

Crowdsourced bathymetry (CSB) has received much attention, with the IHO CSB Guidance
Document being the culmination of numerous lines of development. While CSB has a part to play in global charting, its widescale use is not without issue and should not be seen as panacea for all areas and usages. The North Sea is a heavily used area with mobile seabed and depths critical to shipping. This paper explores the potential of CSB to support resurvey activity in these critical areas and recommends HOs should remain selective in their use of CSB as a data source for charting and focus on using it as an aid to monitoring.

Published: November 2023

Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate renal arteries and aorta anatomy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and compare them with a control group.
Methods: Computed tomography images of 800 individuals (551 of that were with CKD and 249 of them were completely healthy in terms of urinary system) were evaluated retrospectively. Age range of the individuals 19 - 91 years (mean 61.15 ± 12.58). The differences between the renal arteries diameters, diameters of aorta, courses of the renal arteries, their separation levels from the aorta was investigated between the control group and patients with CKD.
Results: Diameters of aorta and renal arteries are statistically significantly larger in CKD patients than healthy individuals and there was a negative correlation between the diameters of aorta with glomerular filtration rate. No statistically significant difference was observed between CKD patients and healthy individuals in terms of renal artery course. No statistically significant difference was detected between CKD patients and healthy individuals in terms of the branching level of the renal arteries from the aorta.
Conclusion: Our study is one of the first studies which these measurements were made in individuals with CKD, according to the available literature. This study is important in that it reveals that the diameters of the renal arteries and aorta is statistically significantly larger in patients with CKD than in healthy individuals. These data may be important for the surgeons in interventional applications.
The Relationship Between the Resected Colon Length and the Number of Lymph Nodes in Colorectal Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Authors: Karabay Ulaş , Yılmaz Latif , Aytekin Alper , Bulut Aziz
Published: November 2023

Objective: The prognostic factors that are important for colorectal cancer are the pathological grade of the tumor and the existence of lymph node involvement. Currently, the curative treatment option is resection of the tumor with adequate length and margin along with complete dissection of lymph nodes draining the site of resection. Our study investigated into retrieving adequate lymph nodes for accurate staging as well as the relationship between lymph nodes and colon and rectum specimen length.
Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study examined the correlation between resected colon length and lymph node count in people with colorectal cancer diagnosed between January 2010 and June 2018. We defined a cutoff value for the segment length to be resected to allow adequate staging of the tumor. Furthermore, we examined the relationship between the resected segment lengths and survival.
Results: Of the patients who were included in this study, 211 were men and 169 were women. The mean resected colon length was 26.47±17.09 cm and the mean dissected lymph node count was 29.05±20.84. There was a positive correlation between specimen length and total lymph node count as well as specimen length and the existence of reactive lymph nodes that were statistically significant (r=0.319, p=0.001; r=0.312, p=0.001, respectively). In our study, tumor localization was described in three regions: the right colon, left colon and rectum. The mean right colon region specimen length was 28.8±15.5 cm, while it was 22.0±11.0 cm for the left colon region, and 21.7±10.6 cm for the rectum region. The 5-year overall survival rate was 53.2%, whereas the 5-year disease-specific survival rate was 58.2%.
Conclusion: The mean specimen length to achieve the cutoff value for adequate lymph node retrieval (least 12 lymph nodes) was 16 cm in our study (ROC curve, AUC=0.689±0.05, p=0.001). The resected colon length and the number of retrieved lymph nodes were positively correlated in our study. Based on this confirmation, a cutoff value of 16 cm was calculated to achieve an adequate segment length to be resected.
Factors influencing the purchase of regional wines by the Millennial generation from the Lubusz Voivodeship
Authors: Michałowska Mariola , Kułyk Piotr
Published: November 2023

The main aim of the study is to identify the most important conditions favoring the development of the Lubusz wine market, with particular emphasis on examining the involvement of young buyers (Millennium generation) in the purchase of Lubusz wines and the impact of factors determining their behavior, including situational ones related to the purchase and consumption of wine, as a generation in an increasingly more responsible for expanding the market. In addition, determining the demographic and economic profile of consumers consuming regional Lubusz wines, as well as proposing practical solutions for building a competitive advantage by the wine industry and wine sellers based on factors shaping the purchase of regional Lubusz wines. In the research procedure, the authors used literature analysis and survey research conducted among young consumers from the Lubusz Voivodeship. The research shows that the purchase of wine is associated with young consumers' perception of it as supporting the Lubusz region in its development. However, the purchase determinants include taste, quality, bouquet, and positive information about the wine. In turn, the main reasons for not making purchases are not drinking alcohol and too high a price.

Determinants Impacting the Use of Antibiotics Among Patients Visiting the Dental Clinic at Kampala International University Teaching Hospital in Bushenyi-Ishaka Municipality, Western Uganda
Authors:   Faculty of Clinical Medicine and Dentistry Kampala International University Western  Campus Uganda, Geofrey Kajura
Published: November 2023

The primary objective of this investigation was to identify the factors influencing the usage of antibiotics among patients seeking care at the Dental Clinic within Kampala International University Teaching Hospital, situated in Bushenyi-Ishaka Municipality, Western Uganda. The study employed a cross-sectional hospital-based survey, gathering data between February and July 2022. This design enables the collection of specific parameters at a single point in time. Analyzed data was presented through tables and figures, illustrating frequencies and proportions. For continuous variables, univariate analysis was conducted, presenting measures of central tendency (such as mean, median, and mode) and measures of dispersion (like range, interquartile range, and standard deviation) for various independent variables. The study revealed that financial constraints were cited by patients and health center nurses as a significant factor causing delays in seeking dental care and occasionally resulting in non-attendance at the dental department. From interviews, patient-related factors emerged, including knowledge about oral health services, awareness of services offered in dental clinics, perceived necessity, fear, anxiety, and access to oral health services. Consequently, the study recommended an enhancement in oral health education initiatives, particularly leveraging media channels, due to a shortage of community oral health personnel. The aim is to extensively educate the population about preventing oral diseases and the appropriate timing for seeking oral health services, enabling individuals to make well-informed decisions regarding their oral health.

Imagens de infâncias e seus atravessamentos na produção de Manoel de Barros e Manuel sarmento
Authors: De Angelo Adilson , Monteiro Maria Diogo
Published: November 2023

Este texto baseia-se em uma investigação teórica que explora a possibilidade dos estudos sobre as infâncias e seus processos educativos adotarem uma abordagem interdisciplinar. O artigo busca estabelecer um diálogo com questões levantadas pela Sociologia da Infância, que destaca a importância da abordagem interdisciplinar como forma de transcender as visões naturalizadas de criança e compreendê-las como seres históricos. Reconhecendo a interdisciplinaridade como uma oportunidade ampla de diálogo, o texto questiona a possibilidade de uma interlocução entre os estudos das infâncias e a linguagem poética. Com base nas obras de Manoel de Barros e Manuel Sarmento, e nas possibilidades de diálogo entre eles, defendemos a contribuição da poesia na construção de um campo de conhecimento que rompa com ideias padronizadas sobre as infâncias, permitindo a emergência de imagens alternativas das crianças, para além de nossas concepções adultocêntricas.

Street Vendors is one of the informal sector jobs that many people enjoy. However, there are many urban problems caused by the proliferation of street vendors like this. The increasing number of traders has made city planning increasingly chaotic and out of control. Apart from that, conflicts between traders cannot be avoided. This research aims to describe how the chaos that occurs due to the large number of street vendors selling can be overcome by the presence of an association that regulates and manages their activities. Paguyuban exists as a local manager who can create order. Researchers try to analyze this phenomenon by using the conflict theory developed by Ralf Dahrendof.This research uses a qualitative approach which is deemed suitable to describe and explore the above phenomena. Data collection techniques in this research used interview techniques accompanied by field observations.
Analysis of Learning Difficulties in Class V Elementary School Science Material
Authors: Gui Marsella Desriyarini , Akuba Mohamad
Published: November 2023

The aim of this research is to identify problems in studying science material and the factors that contribute to these problems. This type of research is qualitative and uses a descriptive approach, involving the use of interviews, questionnaires and documentation. The results showed that six students experienced difficulties in learning science. Internal factors that influence science learning difficulties include poor health, physical disabilities, poor intelligence, students' low interest in learning, and lack of motivation to learn. External factors that contribute to difficulties in learning science include parents' less effective educational styles, parents' lack of attention to students' learning activities, poor relationships between parents and children, weak discipline, a home atmosphere that interferes with students' concentration while studying, and the negative influence of the media and friends who do not support a learning culture. The research results show that teachers must provide incentives that can increase students' interest in learning and must be able to find learning problems in the classroom. Parents must monitor their child's learning progress both at school and at home.

Authors:   Social Science and Industrial Technology R&D Center, Capiz State University, Roxas City, Capiz, Philippines, F. Lachica Louis Placido
Published: November 2023

The coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19, forced the shift from normal to the new normal in the Philippines, the ASEAN region, and the rest of the world. This descriptive-qualitative inquiry sought to uncover the COVID-19 constructs of college students and to determine new normal learning delivery modalities in the context of a state-owned higher education institution. Anchored on the constructivist lens and the grounded theory, Ricoeur’s hermeneutic analysis served as a method of exploring the narratives. The perceived effects of the community quarantines were modes of schooling changed, mental health was tested, internet connectivity problems, economic impacts, and boredom. To better respond to the pandemic, the participants believed that the higher education institution may listen to all stakeholders, learn from other universities, and formulate research-based actions. Modular and online modes wherein blended learning synchronously and asynchronously served as the operational learning delivery modalities of the higher education institution. The learning delivery modalities of the higher education institution complied with the policies and guidelines of the national government, local government units, and the Inter-Agency Task Force for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases. The new normal learning delivery modalities in a higher education institution based on the constructs of the COVID-19 pandemic of college students were formulated. The results of this study may serve as bases for developing participatory and proactive educational policies and guidelines in transitioning from normal to the new normal.

Published: November 2023

This study anchored on constructivist grounded theory aimed to unveil discourses on science communication in a glocal society in a Philippine graduate school classroom. Virtual interviews were done with the participants. In vivo coding technique and narrative discourse analysis were used for data analysis. Results revealed seven emerging discourses on science communication in a graduate school classroom. These are 1) popularizing research- and evidenced-based knowledge, 2) focusing on truth and authenticity, 3) synergy of thinking skills, 4) social media engagement, 5) science communication in policymaking, 6) emancipation and empowerment through education, and peace and global understanding. The emerging discourses of Filipino graduate students reflect how they perceive science communication when positioned globally and applied locally. Science communication is a conduit for making science relevant and impactful to all social contexts through sound and accurate knowledge sharing and engagement of scientific and technical information. Integrating it into allied disciplines to maximize its practical application may emphasize science communication in an academic setting. Future researchers may replicate this study by exploring other methodologies and collaborating with international partner educational institutions to look into intercultural and cross-cultural constructs along this research interest.

Classification of Biotic And Abiotic Stresses on Grape Berries using Transfer Learning
Authors: Gurjar A , Yadav DS , Sawant SD , Upadhyay AK , Saha S
Published: November 2023

Grape farming is one of the most lucrative agricultural enterprises in India. There are several biotic and abiotic stress conditions that may adversely affect the yield if not tackled at the right time. It is crucial that the farmer can correctly identify and monitor the type of stress so that steps can be taken to prevent undesirable outcomes. We have gathered a dataset of these stress conditions on grape berries and categorized them into eight classes, necrosis, shriveling, and honeydew by mealybug, mealybug incidence, spray injury, thrips scarring, pink berry, and powdery mildew. Transfer learning was used to test the performance of six major deep learning image classification architectures (namely MobileNet-v2, Inception-v3, Inception-ResNet-v2, ResNet-v2, NASNet, and PNASNet) with variations in training conditions and hyper parameters. The results were compared to determine the most feasible and accurate deep learning architecture and its hyper parameters for the given problem statement. The experiment shows that Inception-ResNet-v2 obtained maximum classification accuracy of 88.75% when learning rate of 0.035 and minibatch size of 10 were applied using 8000 training steps. This result will act as a pre-requisite for the development of an application for mapping vineyard stress conditions on berries and give automated advisory.

Published: November 2023

The grape (Vitis vinifera) is an important horticultural crop which belongs to the family Vitaceae. Downy mildew (casual organism: Plasmopara viticola) and powdery mildew (casual organism: Uncinula necator) are two major diseases of grapevine which limit the production of grapes significantly. Both fungicides and bio control agents are used to manage diseases, but both have their own limitations. Integration of bio control agents along with fungicides in disease management helps in reduction of fungicide usage. To understand the effect of these fungicides with commonly used bio-control agents, a compatibility study was carried out under in-vitro condition at ICAR-NRC for Grapes, Pune. Registered fungicides against downy mildew and powdery mildew viz., Mancozeb 75% WP, Dimethomorph 50% WP, Fosetyl Al 80% WP, Amisulbrom 17.7% SC w/w (20% SC w/v), Copper oxychloride 50% WP, Kresoxim methyl 44.3% SC, Tetraconazole 3.8% EW, Metrafenone 50% SC, Cyflufenamid 5% EW and Azoxystrobin 11% + Tebuconazole 18.3% w/w were evaluated for compatibility with a potent bio-control agent viz. Trichoderma asperelloides. Trichoderma asperelloides was found to be fully compatible with Fosetyl Al 80% WP, Amisulbrom 17.7% SC w/w (20% SC w/v) and Cyflufenamid 5% EW and to some extent with Mancozeb 75% WP, Dimethomorph 50% WP at their recommended doses. Such compatibility studies help in understanding the gap between the application of synthetic chemicals and bio control agents.

Macroalgae with nontoxicity, biodegradability and biocompatibility has attracted more attentions as a sustainable alternative towards petroleum-derived plastics. However, brittleness and high affinity towards water has limited marine-based macroalgae films to be widely used. Thus, this paper aims to compare the roles of calcium chloride as ionic cross-linker and acrylic resin as covalent cross-linker in agar-PEG plasticised biofilm composite. Agar biofilm composite with PEG 1000 40% were cross-linked with i) calcium chloride 1, 2, 3 and 4 (CaCl2/agar) wt/wt % at 2 or 4 min immersion time, and ii) acrylic resin at 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 (acrylic resin/agar) wt/wt %. FTIR and TGA proved that CaCl2 and acrylic resin managed to cross-link agar-PEG films ionically and covalently respectively. In general, films cross-linked with CaCl2 produced highest affinity towards water than films cross-linked with acrylic resin. Highest tensile strength, highest tensile modulus and lowest elongation at break was achieved when films cross-linked with CaCl2. Films cross-linked with CaCl2 has higher degradation rate than films cross-linked with acrylic resin. In conclusion, different mode of cross-linking (ionic or covalent) imparted different properties on the agar-PEG film.

Kelulusan mahasiswa menandai akhir dari penyelesaian seorang mahasiswa dari tingkat pendidikan sarjana. Untuk mendapatkan gelar sarjana (S1), mahasiswa harus memperoleh sekurang-kurangnya 140 SKS dan menempuh studi maksimal selama 14 semester. Namun, penulis melihat masih ada beberapa mahasiswa di bidang ini yang tidak lulus tepat waktu. Penulis telah memperhatikan bahwa beberapa mahasiswa tidak bisa menyelesaikan studi mereka tepat waktu. Oleh karenanya, penulis merancang sebuah sistem yang bisa memprediksi kelulusan mahasiswa dengan tepat waktu atau tidak dengan metode SAW (Simple Additive Weighting). Metode ini memakai kriteria seperti IPK, IPS, semester berjalan, dan kecukupan SKS. Penelitian ini menguji setidaknya 25 mahasiswa dengan menggunakan kriteria penilaian berupa IPK, dua nilai IPS terakhir, semester berjalan, dan jumlah SKS yang diperoleh. Sebagai hasil dari sistem tersebut, V23 dengan nilai 1 mendapat peringkat 1 dan lebih mungkin menyelesaikan kuliah tepat waktu.

3. Kestävyysnäkökohdat EU-yritysten julkisessa raportoinnissa
Authors: Kaisanlahti Timo
Published: November 2023

Artikkeli käsittelee Euroopan unionin uusia säännöksiä kestävyysraportoinnin varmentamisesta. Tarkastelu kohdistuu siihen, mitkä seikat ovat varmentamisen kohteena, millaisin toimin tämä tehdään ja mitä tilintarkastaja lausuu suorittamistaan toimista. Keskeinen kysymys on, miten EU:n säädäntöratkaisut varmennuksesta vaikuttavat kestävyysinformaation vertailukelpoisuuden toteutumiseen. Käsittelyn taustoittamiseksi myös kuvataan yhtäältä vaikutuksia Suomen lainsäädännölle ja toisaalta kestävyysnäkökohtien merkitystä tilinpäätöksen lakisääteisessä tilintarkastuksessa.

Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli lisätä tietoa asunto-osakeyhtiöiden hallinnon tarkastuksesta tilintarkastajien näkökulmasta. Tutkimuksessa pyrittiin vastaamaan seuraaviin tutkimuskysymyksiin: Miten tilintarkastajat käytännössä kokevat hallinnon tarkastuksen 1) tarkoituksen, 2) merkityksen ja 3) sisällön asunto-osakeyhtiöissä? Empiirinen tutkimus pohjautui yhdeksältä kokeneelta tilintarkastajalta kerättyyn laadulliseen haastatteluaineistoon. Tutkimus havainnollistaa ja selkeyttää hallinnon tarkastuksen roolia ja sisältöä aiemmin empiirisesti tutkimattomassa kontekstissa. Empiiriset tulokset valottavat hyvän tilintarkastustavan perustana olevaa ammattiosaamista ja hyväksi todettuja käytäntöjä hallinnon tarkastuksen osalta.
11. Reagoiva koronajohtaminen – Case Suomen hallitus
Authors: Stenvall Jari , Rannisto Pasi-Heikki , Johanson Jan-Erik , Pekkola Elias
Published: November 2023

Tässä artikkelissa keskitytään siihen, mitkä tekijät aikaansaivat Suomen hallituksen koronajohtamisesta ennakoitavuuden sijasta reagoivaa ja kapea-alaista ja mitä vaikutuksia sillä oli koronajohtamisen onnistumiselle. Artikkelissa ollaan erityisen kiinnostuneita siitä, miksi tietoperustainen ennakointi koronajohtamisessa on ollut haastavaa hallitukselle. Lähtökohtana on, että Suomessa – kuten monessa muussakin maassa – on pyritty ennakoitavuuteen, mutta päädytty reagoitavuuteen. Artikkeli perustuukoronatoimien johtamisen arviointihankkeessa toteutettuja ministeriöiden, keskushallinnon sekä ylimmän poliittisen johdon edustajien haastatteluja, joita on kaikkiaan 42. Artikkelin keskeinen tulos on, että Suomen hallituksen johtamista voidaan luonnehtia Herbert Simonin käsitteellä rajoitettuun rationaalisuuteen pohjautuvaksi johtamistavaksi. Tämä on ollut monilta osin onnistunutta. Rajoitetun rationaalisuuden lähtökohta tulisikin jatkossa huomioida suomalaista kriisihallinnon mallia kehitettäessä.
