Development of a Mathematical Model for the Prediction of Organic Carbon Loss Due to Water Erosion in the Upper Andean Micro-Watersheds of Sangay National Park
Authors: Cazorla-Vinueza Ximena , Barahona-Morales Marcos , Estrada-Brito Nestor
Published: January 2025

Objective: Develop a mathematical model to predict the loss of organic carbon in high Andean micro-watersheds of Sangay National Park.
 
Method: The model is based on the analysis of soil physicochemical variables, such as carbon content and carbon/nitrogen ratio (C_N), which is an indicator of soil quality. Using multiple linear regression techniques, the model evaluates the impact of factors such as carbon and nitrogen content on COS loss, with predictions adjusted to two depths: 30 cm and 60 cm, complying with the requirements of normality, homoscedasticity and statistical independence, and explaining a high variability in the behavior of COS and the C_N ratio under different conditions.
 
Results and Discussion: The results highlight the influence of key factors such as nitrogen percentage and relative density on carbon sequestration, and reveal that nutrient-rich soils show greater resistance to erosion, while soil compaction negatively affects the C_N ratio and reduces carbon storage capacity. Furthermore, the study suggests that COS in deep layers, such as at 60 cm, is more stable and less vulnerable to surface erosion. These findings strengthen the proposed model as a reliable quantitative predictive tool for the conservation of high Andean soils against water erosion and provide a comprehensive analysis of carbon dynamics in high mountain soils. Finally, this study provides a robust mathematical model for monitoring soil organic carbon (COS) dynamics in high Andean soils subject to water erosion. The physicochemical variables analyzed allow a comprehensive approach to accurately estimate COS loss and the carbon-nitrogen (C_N) ratio. In addition, these variables offer practical guidelines to anticipate and mitigate the effects of water erosion and promote sustainability in vulnerable high mountain ecosystems.
 
Research Implications: The main complications of the current study were the climatic conditions of the study area, since at times it was extremely cold with temperatures below 0º. In addition, the cost of using the laboratory to obtain the results of the samples obtained in the field. Also, by including agricultural areas within our study area, there were complications related to the owners of the areas, however, we were able to reach an agreement through our own economic resources. Finally, limited time was an important constraint to obtain more robust results.
 
Originality/Value: The originality of this article consists in the correct execution of a model based on the analysis of soil physicochemical variables and the obtaining of results in a study area with remote complexity with respect to its climatic conditions.

The Interpersonal Whole-Brain Model of Care® (IWBMC™), Cognition, and Academic Performance A Case Study of an Autistic Child
Authors: Haynes Holly , Gonzalez Julian , Saunders Allegra , O'Dell Amy
Published: January 2025

The prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnoses has increased significantly, with current Center for Disease Control data indicating 1 in 36 children are diagnosed with ASD. Individuals with ASD often face educational challenges stemming from differences in neural and cognitive development. While numerous therapeutic approaches exist, the diverse nature of ASD necessitates individualized interventions. This case study investigates how an integrated model of care affects the academic performance and cognitive functioning of an adolescent diagnosed with ASD. We tracked one participant's progress through the Interpersonal Whole-Brain Model of Care® (IWBMC™) over six years using a longitudinal single-subject design. We collected data through EG assessments, cognitive functioning measures, and standardized academic testing (WRAT4). Results demonstrated improvements across all domains: neurological functioning showed normalization of brain wave patterns, cognitive measures improved across different tasks, and academic performance advanced by 2-5 grade levels in core subjects. While generalizability is limited by the single-subject design, findings suggest that the IWBMC™ model's individualized approach and foundation in empathetic therapeutic alliance may effectively support development across multiple domains for individuals with ASD. This study provides a foundation for larger-scale investigations of integrated intervention approaches.

Financial planning for retirement among private sector employees in Sri Lankan financial institutions
Authors: Bandara Sunari , Durairatnam Sakunthala
Published: January 2025

Though there exists a substantial potential market for retirement plans in Sri Lanka, the demand for retirement plans is considerably low. The current study investigates the reasons for such a gap, in light of the Capacity-Willingness-Opportunity model. Adopting a positivist stance and a deductive approach, the study attempts to determine whether financial self-efficacy, job involvement, and social group support are significant factors that should be considered as components of capacity, willingness, and opportunity to save for retirement, respectively. It also investigates whether the effects of the exogenous variables on the endogenous variable would be moderated by gender and/or age group. Using data from 376 employees collected through structured self-administered questionnaires, the study employs PLS-SEM to analyze data. The study finds that social group support and financial self-efficacy have a significant and positive impact on financial planning for retirement (FPR), whereas job involvement does not. Albeit not significantly different from men, women have greater effects of financial self-efficacy, job involvement, and social group support on FPR. When one is in a greater age category, the influence of financial self-efficacy on FPR is substantially greater.
Redefining Collaborative Governance in the Digital Age: insights from an integrative systematic review on the role of ICT in collaboration
Authors: Viana Luna Bouzada Flores
Published: January 2025

Governments increasingly face wicked and complex problems that demand innovative approaches and multisectoral collaboration. The “collaborative governance” concept emphasizes government-led coordination among public, private, and civil society actors to foster consensus and collective action. Simultaneously, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has emerged as a transformative force in governance, facilitating leadership, trust-building, and stakeholder participation. ICT remains peripheral in foundational collaborative governance frameworks despite its potential, revealing a critical conceptual gap in understanding its role. This study addresses this gap through a systematic review of two decades of academic literature (2003–2023). It focuses on how ICT is framed, its functional roles, and the tools it offers to support governance processes. The findings highlight ICT’s capacity to reshape leadership dynamics, foster trust in distanced communication, and enhance participatory mechanisms. Recognizing the absence of a comprehensive framework, the study proposes adapting the “Integrative Framework for Collaborative Governance,” positioning ICT as an operational, non-human participant in joint capacity for action while trust and value-based decision-making remain human-centered. By bridging public administration and ICT scholarship, this research advocates for a paradigm shift that integrates ICT into collaborative strategies for addressing wicked problems. It underscores the necessity of sociotechnical approaches to governance and offers actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners navigating the complexities of an increasingly digital and interconnected world.

Published: January 2025

Se desarrolló un protocolo para la inducción de callos en dos accesiones no tóxicas de J. curcas. Para ello, se realizaron dos experimentos. En el primer experimento se determinó el método de desinfección de semillas para la obtención de explantes asépticos. Para ello se evaluó el efecto de cuatro concentraciones de hipoclorito de sodio (0%, 10%, 15% y 30%) y tres tiempos de exposición (15, 20 y 30 minutos) en dos accesiones no toxicas de J. curcas (I-27 y I-34) en un experimento factorial por duplicado, utilizando 10 repeticiones. En un segundo experimento se evaluó el efecto de cuatro concentraciones de 2,4-D (0.00, 2.2, 3.3 y 4.5 µM) sobre la inducción de callo. En los tratamientos de desinfección, los mejores resultados se encontraron en la accesión I-34 expuesta al 30% de hipoclorito de sodio durante 15 minutos debido a que se logró obtener un 75% de embriones axénicos. El mejor tratamiento para inducir callos viables se observó cuando los hipocótilos de la accesión I-34 se expusieron a 4,5 μM de 2,4-D. Nuestros resultados mostraron una respuesta diferencial en la formación de callos entre las accesiones evaluadas. I-34 fue la accesión con mayor tasa de formación de callos. Los resultados de la prueba GLM mostraron la existencia de significancia estadística en la interacción de 3 niveles. Se encontró que el uso de 4,5 M de 2,4-D en hipocótilos de adhesión I-34 fue el tratamiento más eficaz para la inducción de callo. La concentración de 2,4-D fue el factor más influyente para la inducción de callos, ya que fue el único factor principal significativo en las interacciones de 2 niveles. Por lo que se recomienda utilizar estos resultados en los programas de fitomejoramiento que se están desarrollando en este importante cultivo.

Effect of Filler Metal Chemistry on Preferential Weld Corrosion in Hydrocarbon and Produced Water Service Using the Galvanostatic Method
Authors: Zhou S. , Assassa Y-J , Cowe B. , Marchebois H. , Kairy S.K. , Turnbull A.
Published: January 2025

The effect of Ni content in weld consumables on the preferential weld corrosion (PWC) of welded pipeline steel for hydrocarbon and produced water service has been investigated using the galvanostatic method as a preliminary assessment tool. The method involves the application of a modest anodic current to the weldment over a short period, in this case, 62 h. The distribution of material loss and the extent of PWC is then characterized by 3D profiling. Testing was conducted for 0% Ni, 1% Ni, and 2% Ni weld fillers in 50 g/L NaCl at 60°C with 1 bar CO2. For these sweet environments, the results demonstrate an increased resistance to corrosion of the weld metal and heat-affected zone (HAZ) for the Ni-weld filler, compared to the weld metal free of Ni and the parent steel. However, for all weldments, the fusion zone and HAZ/parent steel interface were more prone to attack than the parent steel, albeit the addition of Ni reduced the extent of corrosion at the fusion zone.
Novel Insights into Trenching of Ni-Containing Low Alloy Steel in Simulated Sour Conditions with Sodium Thiosulfate
Authors: Samusawa Itaru , Shimamura Junji , Al Helal Ammar , Sapanathan Thaneshan
Published: January 2025

There is interest in using thiosulfate as a simulant for research on the sour corrosion of carbon steel because of its safety compared to the original sour test using H2S gas. The effect of Ni on trenching behavior using a simulated sour solution containing 10−3 M Na2S2O3 with pH 4.0 was investigated using a four-point bending test in various applied and open-circuit potential conditions. In this study, x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize steel surfaces after testing. The results showed that Ni promotes trenching and is especially favored by anodic constant potential conditions. On the other hand, the amount of H2S generated by the dissociation and reaction of Na2S2O3 with the metal surface during the test was also influenced by Ni content and applied potential. Specifically, the alloying of Ni and the increase in potential promoted H2S formation. Moreover, the H2S concentrations on the steel surface during the tests at pH 4.0 in this study were estimated to correspond to the sour region 0, which is lower than previously reported test at pH 2.7. This indicates that the simulated sour test is more difficult to control H2S concentration than in our earlier sour test with actual H2S gas and found that the amount of H2S generated on each test condition must be taken into consideration carefully when investigating the corrosion behavior in a simulated sour solution containing Na2S2O3. Based on the experimental findings, the trenching mechanism of Ni-containing steel low alloy steel under 10−3 M Na2S2O3 containing acid brines with pH4.0 is proposed.
Enhancing diagnostic accuracy in breast cancer: integrating novel machine learning approaches with enhanced image preprocessing for improved mammography analysis
Authors: Mehrabi Mohsen , Salek Nafise
Published: January 2025

Purpose

This study explored the use of computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) systems to enhance mammography image quality and identify potentially suspicious areas, because mammography is the primary method for breast cancer screening. The primary aim was to find the best combination of preprocessing algorithms to enable more precise classification and interpretation of mammography images because the selected preprocessing algorithms significantly impact the effectiveness of later classification and segmentation processes.

Material and methods

The study utilised the mini-MIAS database of mammography images and examined the impact of applying various preprocessing method combinations to differentiate between malignant and benign breast lesions. The preprocessing steps included removing label information and pectoral muscle, followed by applying algorithms such as contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalisation (CLAHE), unsharp masking (USM), and median filtering (MF) to enhance image resolution and visibility. After preprocessing, a k-means clustering technique was used to extract potentially suspicious regions, and features were then extracted from these regions of interest (ROIs). The extracted feature datasets were classified using various machine learning algorithms, including artificial neural networks, random forest, and support vector machines.

Results

The findings showed that the combination of CLAHE, USM, and MF preprocessing algorithms resulted in the highest classification performance, outperforming the use of CLAHE alone.

Conclusions

The integration of advanced preprocessing techniques with machine learning significantly enhances the accuracy of mammography analysis, facilitating more precise differentiation between malignant and benign breast lesions.

The development of digital technology, by the end of last and at the beginning of this century, accelerated the flow of information, mainly due to a global computer network – the Internet. In cultural terms, this trend has contributed to the spread of ideas, education, information and many other facet of life of modern man, since the contents through the Internet, have become globally available. From the standpoint of copyright, which this paper devotes special attention to, the market of copyright works leaves the material world and enters a world of users, interconnected through the computer network. In such an environment, the need to protect the interests of authors leads to the extension of its exclusive license and to the exploitation of works via the Internet. However, with the emergence of new forms of communication, based on a model in which users create and share content with each other, there is a need to review the position of the subjects participating in the exchange of information on the Internet. This mostly relates to the question of liability for copyright infringement for unauthorized use of a protected work, the so-called Internet piracy. The user, who thus constituted a violation of rights, is directly responsible for the violation of copyright. However, its role in interactive communication relies on the services of operators that allow the exchange of information on a global computer network – Internet intermediaries. This fact has been recognized in numerous national and international acts, which regulate the issue of internet services and, under certain conditions, these undertakings are considered responsible for internet copyright infringement. This paper aims to present the requirements and responsibilities of internet intermediaries to point to the need to review.

Within the European union in recent years have seen the number of legislative activities aimed at the creation of a single digital market, in which having exchange of goods and services with the help of modern digital technology and Internet environments has the primacy. Global computer network, the Internet, is the most common form of communication today, both in business and in daily life. Content, that is through the Internet, a linear or on demand services, delivered to users is usually the subject of copyright (or related rights) protection. The scope of the rights of the owner disposal, and the conditions under which the right is recognized and exercised or limited, are subject to legislative of each country. The direct consequence of this principle of territoriality of copyright and related rights is reflected in the fact that the legal fate of the law or authority that enters into the composition of the subjective rights is independent of the same rights and powers in another country. Territoriality is, therefore, directly reflected on the exploitation of the subject of protection. Therefore, the frame of the digital single market is largely limited in terms of online access to copyright protected works across the EU. The growing importance of this use defines the activities of the legislative entities in terms of creating a legal framework that would meet the interests of the parties to the exchange of content. One of the measures recent taken is the Proposal for a Regulation on the ensuring of cross-border portability of online services in the internal market, that is topic of this paper. Although not directly subject to Regulation, copyright aspect occupies an important place, put it to work especially recommend.
