Authors: Rautenbach Sarah A. , Sousa Carlos , Carapuço Mafalda , Relvas Paulo
Published: December 2023

Abstract. This article presents an Eulerian physical and biogeochemical data set from the Iberian Margin Cape São Vicente Ocean Observatory (IbMa-CSV), a facility of the European Multidisciplinary Seafloor and water column Observatory – European Research Infrastructure Consortium (EMSO-ERIC) located 10 nautical miles south of Cape São Vicente (Portugal), the southwest tip of the Iberian Peninsula and western limit of the northern margin of the Gulf of Cadiz. The observatory was installed on the shelf break, and the data time series spans four months for most of the variables. The upper 150 m were sampled intensively with a wave powered vertical profiler at an average rate of 4.5 profiles per hour recording at 2 Hz when ascending at approximate velocity of 0.2 m/s and 10 Hz when descending at variable velocity. The vertical resolution was always higher than 0.2 m. Measured channels were conductivity, temperature, pressure, chlorophyll a, dissolved O2 concentration, and turbidity. Derived channels are sea pressure, depth, salinity, speed of sound, specific conductivity, dissolved O2 saturation, density anomaly, spiciness and Brunt-Väisälä frequency. The acquired data set includes the flow velocity and direction along the water column, taken from an upward looking 300 kHz Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) recorded every hour for 3 m depth bins extending the same depth range of the vertical profiler. A standard quality control scheme was applied to the data set. The data set is preserved for multiple use and is accessible in the SEANOE repository, under the address: https://www.seanoe.org/data/00836/94769/ (Rautenbach et al., 2022).

Abstract. This article introduces the 2023 National Offshore Wind data set (NOW-23), which offers the latest wind resource information for offshore regions in the United States. NOW-23 supersedes, for its offshore component, the Wind Integration National Dataset (WIND) Toolkit, which was published a decade ago and is currently a primary resource for wind resource assessments and grid integration studies in the contiguous United States. By incorporating advancements in numerical weather prediction modeling, NOW-23 delivers an updated and cutting-edge product to stakeholders. In this article, we present the new data set, which underwent regional tuning and performance validation against available observations. We also provide a summary of the uncertainty quantification in NOW-23, along with NOW-WAKES, a 1-year post-construction data set that quantifies expected offshore wake effects in the U.S. mid-Atlantic lease areas. Stakeholders can access the NOW-23 data set at https://doi.org/10.25984/1821404 (Bodini et al., 2020).
ET Cool Home: Innovative Educational Activities on Evapotranspiration and Urban Heat
Authors: Blount Kyle , Pignotti Garett , Wolfand Jordyn
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Teaching evapotranspiration (ET) in university courses often focuses on either oversimplified process descriptions or complex empirical calculations, both of which lack grounding in students’ real-world experiences and prior knowledge. This calls for a more applied approach to teaching about ET that connects concepts to experience for improved educational outcomes. One such opportunity exists at the intersections between ET and heat in cities, where a growing majority of the world’s population lives, including many of our students. In this work we describe an ET educational activity that integrates theory with practical design, taking advantage of the close link between ET processes and urban heat patterns. In a benchtop experiment, students measure ET variations across common land surfaces (e.g., asphalt, grass, and mulch) through water and energy balance approaches. The experiment is paired with an “urban heat tour” in the campus environment, facilitated by portable infrared cameras, offering firsthand observation of urban heat patterns. These two activities, together, provide context in which students can understand the difference in ET across various land covers, describe the relationship between ET and land surface temperatures, and explain the impacts of urban design on heat dynamics. The activities are adaptable to serve a diversity of student backgrounds and to different educational contexts, including public demonstrations and K-12 classrooms.
Control of the temperature signal in Antarctic proxies by snowfall dynamics

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Antarctica, the coldest and driest continent, is home to the largest ice sheet, whose mass is predominantly recharged by snowfall. A common feature of polar regions is the warming associated with snowfall, as moist oceanic air and cloud cover increase the surface temperature. Consequently, snow that accumulates on the ice sheet is deposited under unusually warm conditions. Here we use a polar-oriented regional atmospheric model to study the statistical difference between average and snowfall-weighted temperatures. During snowfall, the warm anomaly scales with snowfall amount, with the strongest sensitivity occurring at low-accumulation sites. Heavier snowfall in winter helps to decrease the annual snowfall-weighted temperature, but this effect is overwritten by the event-scale warming associated with precipitating atmospheric systems, which particularly contrast with the extremely cold conditions that occur in winter. Consequently, the seasonal range of snowfall-weighted temperature is reduced by 20 %. On the other hand, the annual snowfall-weighted temperature shows 80 % more interannual variability than the annual temperature due to the irregularity of snowfall occurrence and its associated temperature anomaly. Disturbances of the apparent annual temperature cycle and interannual variability have important consequences for the interpretation of water isotopes in precipitation, which are deposited with snowfall and commonly used for paleotemperature reconstructions from ice cores.
Data-driven surrogate model for wind turbine damage equivalent load
Authors: Haghi Rad , Crawford Curran
Published: December 2023

Abstract. Aeroelastic simulations are used to assess wind turbines in accordance with IEC standards in the time domain. Doing so can calculate fatigue and extreme loads on the wind turbine's components. These simulations are conducted for several reasons, such as reducing safety margins in wind turbine component design by covering a wide range of uncertainties in wind and wave conditions, and meeting the requirements of the digital twin, which needs a thorough set of simulations for calibration. Thus, it's essential to develop computationally efficient yet accurate models that can replace costly aeroelastic simulations and data processing. We suggest a data-driven approach to build surrogate models for the Damage Equivalent Load (DEL) based on aeroelastic simulation outputs to tackle this challenge. Our method provides a quick and efficient way to calculate DEL using wind input signals without the need of time-consuming aeroelastic simulations. Our study will focus on utilizing a sequential machine-learning method to map wind speed time series to DEL. Furthermore, we demonstrate the versatility of the developed and trained surrogate models by testing them for a wind turbine in the wake and using transfer learning to enhance their prediction.

Different graphitization degrees of carbon matter in rocks of a same metamorphic evolution
Authors: Vlahov Alexander , Ivanova Rositsa
Published: December 2023

Two X-ray diffraction methods were chosen to determine the degree of structural order (degree of graphitization) of natural carbonaceous matter. Factors influencing the graphitization processes during the progressive and regressive stages of metamorphism are examined. The correlation of the degrees of structural order of the carbonaceous material with the sequence of mineral growth allows the metamorphic history of the graphite-bearing rocks to be traced. The obtained data can be used for the evaluation of graphite as a raw material.
Conodont biostratigraphy, carbonate microfacies and climate changes during the Late Devonain (Frasnian–Famennian) in the Preslavtsi 2 well (Moesian Terrane, NE Bulgaria)
Authors: Boncheva Iliana , Andreeva Polina , Sachanski Valeri
Published: December 2023

Five conodont zones (falsiovalis, rhenana, triangularis, marginifera, and praesulcata) were recognized within the Upper Devonian carbonate sequence in the Preslavtsi 2 well from the Moesian Terrane in NE Bulgaria. Microfacies study indicates a climate change (from the Subtropical Arid to the Warm Temperate Climatic Zones) recorded in the Frasnian–Famennian succession. Thus, during the Givetian and early Frasnian, sedimentation took place in an arid tidal flat setting, where microbial mats and lagoon carbonates have been formed. In the late Frasnian, a transgression, followed by a rapid regression was recorded that are presumably related to the Late Devonian Kellwasser event. At the beginning of the Famennian, a climate change has occurred and various shallow- and open-marine carbonates have been formed under warm temperate climate conditions.

Published: December 2023

This work presents results from the first purposeful in situ temperature measurements in seafloor sediments above a scalable gas hydrate deposit in the deep-water Danube paleodelta. Temperatures and temperature gradients with accuracy 5 mK and sensitivity 1 mK are measured with 3 MTL loggers with clamps (Antares GmbH) welded to a gravity corer with length of 6 m, outer diameter of 130 mm and weight ~300 kg. During the cruise MN249 on board of the Romanian R/V Mare Nigrum 10-20/10/2023, the gravity corer was deployed on 23 stations with successful temperature measurements and >3 m sediments lifting on 11 stations. Temperature gradients above the gas hydrate deposit (BSR area) are in ~20–50 mK/m when the background is ~30 mK/m. Additional data needed to determine the effects from the 2 main factors formatting temperature gradients – gas hydrate masses and sedimentation rates.

Published: December 2023

This study aimed to reveal preschool teachers’ knowledge level of dyslexia to support and develop vocational education programs. In the study, preschool teachers' knowledge of dyslexia was examined considering three sub-dimensions: general information, symptoms/diagnosis, and treatment of dyslexia. The quantitative study was conducted using the general survey model, and the sample consisted of 153 preschool teachers working in Ankara. The study data were collected using a personal information form and the Knowledge and Beliefs about Developmental Dyslexia Scale (KBDDS). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, and Games-Howell Post Hoc test. The study findings revealed that the preschool teachers’ knowledge of dyslexia was low. It was also determined that participants' working experiences or education status did not affect the knowledge and belief levels of dyslexia. However, a significant difference was found only in favor of high-school graduate teachers only in the symptoms/diagnosis sub-dimension. A significant difference was also found in favor of teachers who received training on dyslexia in all sub-dimensions.

Kelompok Tani Dukuh (POKTAN) Mekarsari mendirikan Taman Mekarsari di Desa Kaligentong, Boyolali yang dulunya merupakan tempat pembuangan sampah. Mekarsari telah diubah menjadi tujuan wisata dengan tiga tujuan utama. Pertama adalah untuk menjaga sungai dan ekologinya, termasuk flora dan satwa liarnya, sehingga dapat terus menjadi tumpuan kehidupan pedesaan. Tujuan kedua adalah sebagai tempat hiburan warga, pendidikan sains dan alam, serta pengembangan seni dan budaya daerah. Sedangkan tujuan terakhir adalah merevitalisasi ekonomi lokal dengan menyelenggarakan pasar rakyat di kawasan wisata. Permasalahan yang dihadapi masyarakat khususnya kelompok tani terutama yang terlibat langsung dalam pengelolaan Taman Wisata Mekarsari adalah tidak adanya lahan kosong untuk anak-anak bermain dan belajar. Taman bermain prasekolah membantu anak-anak bergerak dan bermain. Bermain di taman bermain dapat memberikan banyak manfaat perkembangan bagi anak, antara lain belajar dan melatih keterampilan sejak usia dini. Saat merencanakan taman bermain anak-anak, seseorang harus mempertimbangkan aspek berwujud dan tidak berwujud. Banyak taman bermain prasekolah yang telah dibuat selama ini, namun kebanyakan berfokus pada faktor keamanan daripada manfaat perkembangan bagi anak. Pengabdian ini dilaksanakan pada taman Mekarsari dengan pembuatan wahana taman bermain berupa ayunan jungkat jungkit. Malalui wahana ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kepercayaan diri dan keberanian untuk menghadapi suatu hal yang baru. Koordinasi dan keseimbangan lagi-lagi dibutuhkan saat bermain jungkat-jungkit. Tak hanya itu dengan bermain permainan ini anak-anak juga belajar saling bekerja sama satu sama lain.

Economic Optimization of a Thermal Solar Power Plant That Operates With a HRB Cycle by Improving the Operation Schedule
Authors: Subires Antonio J. , Rovira Antonio
Published: December 2023

In this paper, two solutions are proposed to increase the sales revenue of a pre-sized solar thermal power plant (STPP) that operates with a Hybrid Rankine Brayton cycle (HRB) by changing the reference operating parameters. In the first solution, the turbine inlet temperature value is optimized to increase the energy production. In the second solution, a  new dispatch strategy that prioritizes energy production during the hours of higher sales price is additionally implemented in low solar radiation months. In the remaining months, the reference dispatch strategy that prioritizes production from energy coming directly from the solar field over energy from storage system is maintained. The incremental sales revenue of each solution proposed over the reference case is calculated considering hourly SPOT prices for a three-year period and considering hourly annual simulations for a typical year.

In post-Saddam Iraq, helming the delicate balance between Iraq's ethno-confessional groups according to its national security interests posed one of the focuses of Iran's regional policy. The article aims to analyze the peculiarities of Iran's Kurdish policy, the essence of the regional transitions of the Kurdish issue, and their impact on Iran's regional policy. The article argues that the Islamic State's threat and the Syrian crisis strengthened Iran's Kurdish policy to control the Kurdish region of Iraq, including the issue of distribution and transition of energy resources. Tehran vigorously defended the principle of the territorial integrity of Iraq and preserved the Shia force's dominance in the 2017 pre-referendum period. This strategy sought to prevent the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG) from evolving into potential foothold operations targeting Iranian assets in the region.
The Impact Of The Syrian Crisis On Lebanon: Geopolitical Aspect
Authors: Harutyunyan Lilit
Published: December 2023

The paper analyses the geopolitical impact of the Syrian crisis on Lebanon. This impact is observed in two forms: one within the Syria-Lebanon relations (a sub-regional) and the other one within the wider Middle East (a regional). The first refers to the direct repercussions that the increasing instability in Syria has on the Lebanese part. More specifically, the impact that have some factors of the Syrian crisis –increasing confessionalism and Islamic radicalism- on the internal political and religious power relations of Lebanon. The second form of impact refers to the indirect yet critical repercussions that the regional instability of the Middle East has on Lebanon. As a state of proxy actors through which the regional powers project power and as an integral part of the Syria-Lebanon sub-region, Lebanon is the primary point on which the regional systemic pressure is applied. As a result of this regional impact, the internal political and religious power relations of Lebanon become a micro-level representation of the regional power relations of the wider Middle Eastern system.

Planeación en la compra pública. Una visión holística de un principio en constante construcción
Authors: Barreto Moreno Antonio Alejandro , Zambrano Parra María Camila , Ayala Carrascal Jaime Andrés , Rodríguez Rodríguez Nicolás Alberto
Published: December 2023

La planeación en la Administración pública es un deber de tal amplitud que en el régimen colombiano es visto desde una perspectiva económica y social, y una de gestión contractual. La primera se refiere a la formulación de los programas de gobierno, planes de desarrollo y presupuesto, y la segunda a la realización de estudios y documentos que apuntan a la celebración de un contrato estatal. Esa diferenciación lleva a que el tratamiento en materia de gestión, ejecución y control sea igualmente equidistante. Sin embargo, en lo que ambas visiones comparten elementos comunes es en que su punto de contacto se encuentra en una operación de compra pública. Este libro presenta a la compra pública como un proceso que no se agota en la gestión contractual, sino que se extiende hasta la parte más primigenia de la formulación de cada operación: el programa de gobierno. Con este fin, la planeación se presenta como el camino que sigue esa gestión y la convierte en un elemento holístico dentro del actuar de la Administración pública. Finalmente, en cada estación del proceso, se expone cómo algunos elementos de la participación ciudadana irradian los procesos de elaboración de los programas de gobierno, planes de desarrollo, presupuesto territorial e, incluso, la elaboración de determinados documentos previos del contrato estatal, lo que muestra otra faceta del deber objeto de estudio: la planeación participativa. Con todo, se expresa que, en el corazón del mercado de la compra pública y sus procesos, la planeación es el motor y la guía que la mantiene en movimiento.

La rehabilitación y el cuidado de la baja visión es una disciplina que no solo continúa vigente, sino que está en expansión. La 14.ª Conferencia Internacional de Baja Visión, celebrada en Denver y promovida por la Sociedad Internacional para la Investigación y Rehabilitación de la Baja Visión, ISLRR, ha sido una buena prueba de ello, consolidándose como una plataforma de referencia para que investigadores y expertos de todo el mundo compartan sus experiencias y aporten soluciones al reto que representa la pérdida grave de visión.

Bajo el lema «Rehabilitación de la baja visión a lo largo de la vida», los contenidos tratados han sido novedosos y prácticos, reflejando fielmente la actividad diaria de los especialistas y fomentando el debate necesario a través de diferentes sesiones plenarias, paralelas, talleres y pósteres.
