Peningkatan Kinerja Pencarian Dokumen Tugas Akhir Menggunakan Porter Stemmer Bahasa Indonesia dan Fungsi Peringkat Okapi BM25
Authors: Widiasri Monica , Tjandra Ellysa , Chandra Lisa Maria
Published: April 2019

Proses pencarian dokumen yang menggunakan information retrieval akan menerima query dan mengembalikan dokumen yang relevan dengan query pencarian tersebut. Relevansi diperhitungkan dari relevansi kata pada query dan kumpulan dokumen yang dicari. Pada sistem pencarian yang tidak mempertimbangkan variasi morfologi kata mengakibatkan dokumen yang mempunyai kata yang merupakan variasi dari kata pada query tidak dianggap sebagai dokumen hasil pencarian. Proses stemming dilakukan untuk mengenali variasi morfologi tersebut, dengan cara melakukan perubahan pada kata-kata berimbuhan dengan cara penghapusan awalan dan akhiran suatu kata menjadi kata dasarnya. Proses stemming dilakukan pada proses indexing, sehingga akan mengurangi ukuran dari index file. Hal itu dapat mengurangi waktu pencarian dan kebutuhan memori. Dokumen hasil pencarian akan ditampilkan sesuai nilai peringkat relevansi dokumen dengan query yang diberikan. Pemberian peringkat dilakukan dengan cara memberikan bobot pada dokumen. Dokumen yang mempunyai relevansi kata yang tinggi dengan query, akan diberikan bobot yang lebih besar. Pada sistem pencarian Tugas Akhir pada Universitas X, belum dilakukan proses stemming dan indexing. Untuk meningkatkan kinerja pencarian Tugas Akhir tersebut akan ditambahkan proses stemming dan indexing, serta pengurutan peringkat dokumen hasil pencarian. Proses stemming menggunakan porter stemmer bahasa Indonesia karena dokumen TA yang dicari berbahasa Indonesia, proses indexing menggunakan inverted index. Serta pengurutan dokumen hasil menggunakan fungsi peringkat Okapi BM25. Dari hasil uji coba, proses stemming dan fungsi peringkat yang dilakukan memberikan hasil pencarian yang lebih baik sesuai relevansi query. Penggunaan stemming dan inverted index menghemat penggunaan memori serta dapat mempercepat proses pencarian secara signifikan.

Authors: Widiasri Monica , Lisana Lisana , Liantara Suwendi
Published: April 2019

Cerita dongeng agama Buddha atau disebut jataka adalah cerita dongeng yang menceritakan kelahiran masa lalu Buddha, yang mengandung pesan moral dan pengertian tentang dhamma. Dongeng agama Buddha biasanya diajarkan untuk anak-anak di sekolah minggu Buddhis yang ada di vihara. Namun, penyampaian cerita dongeng agama Buddha masih kurang menarik minat anak-anak dalam memperhatikan cerita dongeng agama Buddha. Buku dongeng agama Buddha dalam bahasa Indonesia sulit didapatkan, kurang menarik, dan kurang mudah dimengerti oleh anak-anak. Oleh karena itu dibuatlah suatu aplikasi cerita dongeng agama Buddha yang menggunakan motion comic supaya meningkatkan minat anak-anak dalam membaca, mendengarkan, serta memahami dongeng agama Buddha. Motion comic yang dibuat memberikan tampilan secara visual 2D, terdapat unsur suara, dan dapat menceritakan dongeng secara lebih baik. Motion comic ini diujicobakan di sekolah minggu Buddhis, kemudian dilakukan wawancara dengan responden guru dan pembagian kuisoner kepada anak-anak usia 4-6 tahun. Hasil dari ujicoba menyatakan motion comic yang dibuat mendapatkan respon positif dari responden. Motion comic membuat anak-anak lebih mengerti dan tertarik membaca dongeng agama Buddha. Selain itu, pesan moral yang terdapat di cerita dongeng agama Buddha tersampaikan dengan baik.
Aplikasi Multimedia Untuk Media Pembelajaran Menggambar Grafik Fungsi Dengan Operasi Penskalaan, Pergeseran, dan Pencerminan
Authors: Limanto Susana , Dinata Hendra
Published: April 2019

Salah satu materi dari mata kuliah Matematika adalah menggambar grafik fungsi melalui operasi pergeseran, penskalaan, dan pencerminan. Materi ini disampaikan dalam waktu kurang lebih 100 menit tatap muka. Berdasarkan nilai Ujian Tengah Semester (UTS) soal menggambar grafik fungsi dari 10 kelas paralel mata kuliah Matematika semester Gasal 2016 – 2017 diketahui bahwa sekitar 79.6% mahasiswa mendapat nilai di bawah 55 (batas nilai C). Beberapa penyebab tingginya persentase mahasiswa yang mendapat nilai di bawah C adalah keterbatasan waktu penyampaian materi sehingga materi disampaikan secara satu arah, yaitu dari dosen ke mahasiswa dan kebanyakan mahasiswa kurang berlatih di luar jam kuliah karena setelah berlatih tidak tahu apakah yang dikerjakannya benar atau belum. Untuk mengatasi permasalahan yang ada dikembangkan sebuah aplikasi multimedia pembelajaran yang dilengkapi dengan simulasi proses menggambar grafik fungsi melalui operasi pergeseran, penskalaan, dan pencerminan secara langkah demi langkah. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian terapan ini adalah prototyping yang yang terdiri dari komunikasi dengan pengguna untuk mengetahui kebutuhan pengguna, membuat prototipe, mengevaluasi prototipe berdasarkan umpan balik dari pengguna, menyempurnakan prototipe, pembuatan aplikasi, dan ujicoba aplikasi. Ujicoba aplikasi dilakukan kepada 10 orang mahasiswa peserta mata kuliah Matematika di mana materi menggambar grafik fungsi ini disampaikan dengan cara meminta para responden mencoba aplikasi secara mandiri kemudian mengisi kuisioner umpan balik. Hasil ujicoba aplikasi menunjukkan bahwa minimal 70% responden setuju bahwa aplikasi membantu untuk lebih memahami materi dan berlatih secara mandiri. Fasilitas simulasi menggambar grafik fungsi yang disajikan langkah demi langkah membantu mengkoreksi pekerjaan responden sehingga menambah kepercayaan diri responden dalam mengerjakan soal-soal selanjutnya.

Hurtlex: A Multilingual Lexicon of Words to Hurt
Authors: Bassignana Elisa , Basile Valerio , Patti Viviana
Published: April 2019

We describe the creation of HurtLex, a multilingual lexicon of hate words. The starting point is the Italian hate lexicon developed by the linguist Tullio De Mauro, organized in 17 categories. It has been expanded through the link to available synset-based computational lexical resources such as MultiWordNet and BabelNet, and evolved in a multi-lingual perspective by semi-automatic translation and expert annotation. A twofold evaluation of HurtLex as a resource for hate speech detection in social media is provided: a qualitative evaluation against an Italian annotated Twitter corpus of hate against immigrants, and an extrinsic evaluation in the context of the AMI@Ibereval2018 shared task, where the resource was exploited for extracting domain-specific lexicon-based features for the supervised classification of misogyny in English and Spanish tweets.
Identifying Citation Contexts: a Review of Strategies and Goals.
Authors: Rotondi Agata , Di Iorio Angelo , Limpens Freddy
Published: April 2019

The Citation Contexts of a cited entity can be seen as little tesserae that, fit together, can be exploited to follow the opinion of the scientific community towards that entity as well as to summarize its most important contents. This mosaic is an excellent resource of information also for identifying topic specific synonyms, indexing terms and citers’ motivations, i.e. the reasons why authors cite other works. Is a paper cited for comparison, as a source of data or just for additional info? What is the polarity of a citation? Different reasons for citing reveal also different weights of the citations and different impacts of the cited authors that go beyond the mere citation count metrics. Identifying the appropriate Citation Context is the first step toward a multitude of possible analysis and researches. So far, Citation Context have been defined in several ways in literature, related to different purposes, domains and applications. In this paper we present different dimensions of Citation Context investigated by researchers through the years in order to provide an introductory review of the topic to anyone approaching this subject.

Published: April 2019

The aim of this study was to evaluate the physiological and biochemical changes related to the loss of desiccation tolerance in millet seeds. The points studied were determined according to the seed imbibition curve of the hybrid ADRF6010: control (0 h), 3 h, 1 and 3 mm of radicle. The seeds were dried on silica gel for 72 h at 20 °C, followed by pre-humidification at 25 °C for 24 h. The physiological quality was evaluated by the electrical conductivity and germination test, and the seed vigor through the first count and germination speed index. The experiment was performed in a completely randomized design and means were compared by the Scott-knott test at 5% probability. The enzymatic systems evaluated were: superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase, and α-amylase, and the expression of heat-resistant proteins. The enzymatic activity was quantified through the software ImageJ®. Millet seeds lost desiccation tolerance when the radicle reaches 1 mm of length. According to the enzymatic standards, the enzymes peroxidase and α-amylase, as well as the activity of heat-resistant proteins are related to the loss of desiccation tolerance in millet seeds.

Published: April 2019

The aim of this study was to model the individual height and volume of eucalyptus wood in two integrated crop-livestock-forest systems (ICLF1 and ICLF2) in Campo Grande, a city in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Classic nonlinear growth models were adjusted for height (Logistic, Gompertz, Richards, Weibull, Van Bertalanffy, Brody, Mitscherlich, and Chapman and Richards) and volume (Shumacher-hall nonlinear, Takata, Honner, Logistic, Gompertz, and Weibull) in two structural arrangements: ICLF1, with a spacing of 14 x 2 m and density of 357 trees ha-1, and ICLF2, with a spacing of 22 x 2 m and density of 227 trees ha-1. Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) measurements were performed in 100% of trees, with measurements of the total height of some individuals and a rigorous scaling procedure in diameter classes. According to the calculated value of Student's t-test, there was no significant evidence that DBH and the average height of the trees were different between ICLF1 and ICLF2. Based on the Akaike information criterion (AIC), the corrected Akaike information criterion (AICC) and the Bayesian information criterion (BIC), the Richards model was selected to estimate heights and the Takata model was selected to estimate the volume.

Estética, ética e formação na perspectiva adorniana
Authors: Santos Leônidas Melo , Neuvald Luciane
Published: April 2019

O artigo discute a relação entre estética, ética e formação na perspectiva adorniana. A pesquisa, de natureza bibliográfica, compreende a algumas obras de Adorno e de seus intérpretes. Na Dialética do Esclarecimento, Adorno e Horkheimer (1985) discutem criticamente a relação entre o mito e a racionalidade instrumental, pois o progresso do esclarecimento, ao valorizar uma razão de característica abstrata e dominadora, enfraqueceu o exercício da autorreflexão crítica e promoveu a regressão da consciência, cujo processo se expressa na semicultura e na barbárie. A obra de arte e a estética se opõem a esse processo e fortalecem a consciência e a razão emancipatória, constituindo-se em referencial de liberdade e de integração entre o trabalho intelectual e o manual.
Leituras de 1808 - Aspectos educativos, estéticos e cognitivos da recepção da obra a partir da Didática da História
Authors: Gelbcke Juliana , Cerri Luis Fernando
Published: April 2019

Este texto estuda a recepção de uma amostra de leitores ao livro 1808 - Como uma rainha louca, um rei medroso e uma corte corrupta enganaram Napoleão e mudaram a história de Portugal e do Brasil, de Laurentino Gomes. São usados os conceitos de história pública e cultura histórica, a partir da Didática da História (Bergmann, 1990; Rüsen, 2001), para a qual o ensino e a aprendizagem histórica são um fenômeno complexo e multifatorial. Dedica-se a estudar a recepção ou a aprendizagem de uma amostra de leitores da obra 1808 a partir de três das dimensões da cultura histórica: cognitiva, estética e política (Rüsen, 1994). Os dados foram obtidos pela aplicação de um questionário por meio da internet e interpretados pela análise de conteúdo (Bardin, 2011). Conclui-se, a partir da análise dos dados das entrevistas, que o sucesso desse tipo de obra está sustentado na história escolar (que ‘forma público’ interessado) e na história acadêmica (como fonte de autoridade); recursos estéticos são indicados pelos leitores como fator importante de interesse. A combinação de fatores estéticos e historiográficos gera, entre os leitores, um ‘efeito janela’ que parece fornecer acesso imediato ao passado, frente ao qual se observa restrita consciência crítica dos leitores.

Authors: Poi Thassiane Maria , Luz Adriana Augusta Benigno dos Santos , Góes Anderson Roges Teixeira , Góes Heliza Colaço
Published: April 2019

Nesta pesquisa é abordado o contexto histórico das disciplinas de Expressão Gráfica, presente no currículo do curso de Matemática da Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR) no período de1974 a2006 (ano da última reforma curricular). A finalidade é indicar a possível causa para o quase não desenvolvimento de conceitos dessa área, que na Educação Básica engloba, sobretudo, a Geometria na disciplina de Matemática. Para isto, buscamos informações em documentos oficiais, trabalho direto com alunos, professores e escolas públicas de educação básica, verificando que o estudo da Expressão Gráfica foi subtraído, ocasionando lacuna na formação do futuro professor, que deverá desenvolver tais temas com seus futuros alunos, indicando uma possível causa para o (des)aparecimento do trabalho dos conceitos na Educação Básica, contribuindo para a fragmentação curricular.

Published: April 2019

Ao refletir sobre a formação de educadores da educação do Campo, este trabalho busca evidenciar a relevância das formas de socialização de saberes das comunidades campesinas, para viabilizar o diálogo com os conhecimentos produzidos na academia. No intuito de gerar aproximação com a temática, refletimos sobre alguns mecanismos, acionados pelos sujeitos que aprendem para significar suas apropriações. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa bibliográfica, construída por meio do diálogo com autores que discutem os conceitos apresentados no estudo. Entendendo o conceito de rede como imprescindível ao estudo, discutimos acerca da mediação enquanto dispositivo favorável à sistematização de saberes, ao tempo em que consideramos as formas de aprendizagem cotidiana, utilizadas pelos estudantes da Educação do Campo, como fator preponderante para fortalecer a aprendizagem dos conhecimentos socializados na academia. A partir deste estudo, chegamos a conclusão de que é fundamental continuar investindo em pesquisas que nos ajudem a aprofundar os conhecimentos acerca dos saberes acionados pelos diversos sujeitos em processo de formação (inicial ou continuada), compreendendo a importância do trabalho coletivo dos professores formadores para a construção das pontes de encontro de saberes, como uma prática libertadora.
Contribuições de Paulo Freire e Célestin Freinet ao processo de ensino-aprendizagem
Authors: Gumiero Rosane , Araújo Kleber De
Published: April 2019

Este artigo dialoga com as contribuições dadas pela pedagogia freiriana e a fpedagogia Freinetiana, no que diz respeito ao múltiplo e complexo processo de ensino-aprendizagem. As de um e outro convergem para a grande importância do protagonista neste processo – o educando - e a enfatizam. Outro aspecto preponderante nesse diálogo são as relações entre educação e humanização. Freire defende a substituição da educação tradicional pela educação orientada para a criação de disposições mentais críticas, favoráveis à participação, à deliberação coletiva, à ingerência, à dialogicidade, ao autogoverno e, consequentemente, à sua contribuição para com a democratização. Freinet assegura que o educando tem motivações e entusiasmos que o educador deve liberar e favorecer; este, por sua vez, deve criar um espaço favorável ao processo de ensino, facilitando sua aprendizagem através das ‘técnicas pedagógicas para a vida’. Tanto Freire quanto Freinet não só criticam as formas tradicionais e ultrapassadas do ensino e da aprendizagem, mas apontam ações práticas e simples através de suas experiências: Freire – com as expressões da emergência política das classes populares e com os movimentos sociais; Freinet – com as técnicas e práticas pedagógicas e o ensino direcionado ao povo.
High Efficiency Cooling and Heating Channels for Injection Moulding
Authors: Freitas Paulo , Santos Cyril , Carreira Pedro , Mateus Artur
Published: April 2019

For many years traditional injection moulding has been the norm for obtaining polymer based products, and yet this cycle still shows potential for improvement. This paper will encompass the potential in the thermal part of the cycle, by introducing a novel approach to conventional tubular cooling designs, empowered by additive technologies this reiterates what’s being known as conformal cooling. Different geometries and techniques are compared to determine the optimal cross section layout of the fluid channels and inner surface of the moulding parts. If the cooling achieved is sufficiently fast the crystallographic growth of the material can be manipulated to obtain specific properties observable in the mesoscale. This however can be transversely applied in other heat exchanging structures in future studies.
Performance and Loads of a Lift Offset Rotor: Hover and Wind Tunnel Testing
Authors: Cameron Christopher G. , Sirohi Jayant
Published: April 2019

The results of hover and wind tunnel tests of a reduced-scale, model rotor operating with lift offset are presented. The two-bladed rotor had a diameter of 2.03 m and constant cross section untwisted blades. Measurements include steady and vibratory hub loads, as well as control angles
and pushrod loads. The rotor system was tested in hover and at advance ratios between 0.21 and 0.53, at collective pitches ranging from 3° to 10°, achieving blade loadings in excess of 0.10. At each forward flight operating condition, sweeps of lift offset up to 15% were performed.
In forward flight, the rotor effective lift-to-drag ratio was found to increase with increasing advance ratio and lift offset, with a maximum increase of 40% compared to the zero lift offset case. Vibratory loads increased with advance ratio, with the largest loads in the two- and four-per-revolution
harmonics. Lift offset is shown to modify vibratory hub forces and moments transmitted to the fixed frame, increasing vibratory rolling and pitching moments while decreasing vibratory thrust and torque.

Published: April 2019

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing, highly pruritic skin condition that develops in early childhood. Sleep problems are common in AD children and lead to impaired quality of life, disturbance of neurocognitive function and behavior. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of sleep problems in 0-36 months old Indonesian children with AD. Children aged 0-36 months were enrolled, divided into two groups, AD and control. Sleep problems and AD were assessed using Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire (BISQ) and Severity Scoring of Atopic Dermatitis Index (SCORAD). Chi-square test was performed to compare the outcome. There were 35 children participating in each group. In children with sleep problems, 85.7% were diagnosed with AD and 11.4% were non-AD. Nocturnal sleep duration, night waking, nocturnal wakefulness, sleep onset time, method of falling asleep and parental consideration of sleep problems occur more often within AD group. Severity of AD also significantly contributes to sleep problems in AD group. In conclusion, this study showed that sleep problems are more prevalent in children with AD.

The high prevalence among children shows continued transmission from adult and lack of disease control by the health system. Detection of anti-NDO-LID-1 has been known to be more effective to predict the development of leprosy in household contacts than just detecting PGL-1 or LID- 1 alone. However, serodiagnosis is not available in poorer-settings area and the procedure (venepuncture) is still inconvenient to some people. These problems can be solved by using finger-prick blood sample on filter paper. This study aims to prove the effectiveness of using capillary blood samples on filter paper to detect the positivity of Ig G antibody against NDO-LID-1 antigen in asymptomatic household contacts. Seventeen samples of capillary blood on filter paper and sera were tested for IgG anti-NDO-LID-1 using ELISA. There was no significant difference between IgG level from filter paper and serum (p=0.754) and there was also a strong positive correlation (R=0.906) between the two procedures. These findings show that the use of filter paper and NDO-LID-1 is worthy of further investigations, especially for those with lower bacillary load or contacts of leprosy patients.

Vitamin D deficiency is a condition often found in various autoimmune diseases, including vitiligo. There were clinical improvements in autoimmune patients who had been given oral vitamin D supplementation, as well as vitiligo patients. This study aimed to analyze the comparison effect of a combination therapy of 308-nmexcimer light phototherapy and vitamin D3 supplementation toward 308-nm-excimer light phototherapy alone to increase of serum 25-(OH)D levels in childhood vitiligo patients. Subjects consisted of 16 childhood vitiligo patients that divided into two groups; group I was given a combination of 308-nm-excimer light phototherapy and 5000 IU of vitamin D3 supplement once daily, while group II was given monotherapy of excimer light. There were highly significant increase of 25-(OH)D serum in both groups which were 324.00±119.066% and 29.84±36.106%, respectively. The very significant result was seen in a comparison of average increased of serum 25-(OH)D levels between both groups. The study concluded that combination of 308-nm-excimer light phototherapy and vitamin D3 supplementation gave a better effect than phototherapy only to increase of serum 25- (OH)D levels in childhood vitiligo patients.

Due to issues of limited substances and expensive cost of wound treatment, topical insulin and simvastatin are being developed due to benefits including easy to find and applicable in every health center. Topical insulin can be used in treating diabetic patient’s wound. Simvastatin contributed in wound healing process by increasing angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. This experimental study is using randomized post test only control design in male Wistar mice, divided in 5 treatment groups with 9 mice each : carboxymethylcellulose sodium gel, short acting insulin topical gel, long acting insulin topical gel, simvastatin topical 2% gel, and simvastatin 3% topical gel. A full thickness wound was made randomly and observed in 5 days, followed with wound biopsy and analyzing using histopathological specimen measuring the epithelial thickness, fibroblast proliferation and collagen density from each group. Long acting insulin topical gel has the highest average rate of epithelial proliferation and fibroblast proliferation. In simvastatin 3% topical gel has the highest level of collagen density level among other groups. This study showed long acting insulin topical gel significantly has better outcome than other groups.
Ph value of infant’s skin is higher on diaper area compared to nondiaper area
Authors: Wirantari Nadia , Astari Linda , Zulkarnain Iskandar
Published: April 2019

Prolonged use of diaper may alter skin barrier function due to exposure to irritants from feces and urine, concurrent mechanical friction and occlusion, thus render the skin prone to inflammation and infection. Measurement of skin pH value may be used to document skin barrier function, especially in tropical countries such as Indonesia, and to expose the difference between diapered and non-diapered skin. The purpose of this study is to compare the pH value between baby’s diapered and non-diapered skin. In this cross-sectional study, the skin pH of 43 healthy babies aged 6 to 12 months were measured using pH-meter on diaper and non-diaper area of the skin. pH values were documented and compared. The mean pH value of diaper area was 6,11 ± 0,72 g/m2/h (95% CI, 4,88 – 8,02) and non-diaper area was 5,91 ± 0,69 g/m2/h (95% CI, 4,53 – 7,69), with significant difference (p=0,005). pH values increased significantly on diaper area compared to nondiaper area, revealing impaired barrier function on diapered skin, despite no pathological skin changes.

Abstract. Low clouds persist in the summer Arctic with important consequences for the radiation budget. In this study, we simulate the linear relationship between liquid water content (LWC) and cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) observed during an aircraft campaign based out of Resolute Bay, Canada conducted as part of the NETCARE study in July 2014. Using a single column model, we find that autoconversion can explain the observed linear relationship between LWC and CDNC. Of the three schemes we examined, the autoconversion scheme using continuous drizzle (Khairoutdinov and Kogan, 2000) appears to best reproduce the observed linearity in the tenuous-cloud regime (Mauritsen et al., 2011), while a scheme with a threshold for rain (Liu and Daum, 2004) best reproduces the linearity at higher CDNC. An offline version of the radiative transfer model used in the Canadian Atmospheric Model version 4.3 is used to compare the radiative effects of the modelled and observed clouds. We find that there is no significant difference in the upward longwave fluxes at the top of the atmosphere from the three autoconversion schemes (p = 0.05), but that all three schemes differ at p = 0.05 from the calculations based on observations. In contrast, the downward longwave and shortwave fluxes at the surface for all three schemes do not differ significantly (p = 0.01) from the observation-based radiative calculations.

Abstract. The Bay of Bengal (BoB) generally exhibits surface oligotrophy due to
nutrient limitation induced by strong salinity stratification. Nevertheless,
there are hotspots of high chlorophyll in the BoB where the monsoonal
forcings are strong enough to break the stratification; one such region is
the southern BoB, east of Sri Lanka. A recent field programme conducted during
the summer monsoon of 2016, as a part of the Bay of Bengal Boundary Layer
Experiment (BoBBLE), provides a unique high-resolution dataset of the
vertical distribution of chlorophyll in the southern BoB using ocean gliders
along with shipboard conductivity–temperature–depth (CTD) measurements. Observations were carried out for a
duration of 12–20 days, covering the dynamically active regions of the Sri Lanka Dome (SLD) and the Southwest Monsoon Current (SMC). Mixing and
upwelling induced by the monsoonal wind forcing enhanced surface chlorophyll
concentrations (0.3–0.7 mg m−3). Prominent deep chlorophyll maxima
(DCM; 0.3–1.2 mg m−3) existed at intermediate depths (20–50 m),
signifying the contribution of subsurface productivity to the biological
carbon cycling in the BoB. The shape of chlorophyll profiles varied in
different dynamical regimes; upwelling was associated with sharp and intense
DCM, whereas mixing resulted in a diffuse and weaker DCM. Within the SLD,
open-ocean Ekman suction favoured a substantial increase in chlorophyll.
Farther east, where the thermocline was deeper, enhanced surface chlorophyll
was associated with intermittent mixing events. Remote forcing by the
westward propagating Rossby waves influenced the upper-ocean dynamics and
chlorophyll distribution in the southern BoB. Stabilizing surface freshening
events and barrier-layer formation often inhibited the generation of surface
chlorophyll. The pathway of the SMC intrusion was marked by a distinct band
of chlorophyll, indicating the advective effect of biologically rich Arabian
Sea waters. The region of the monsoon current exhibited the strongest DCM as well
as the highest column-integrated chlorophyll. Observations suggest that the
persistence of DCM in the southern BoB is promoted by surface oligotrophy and
shallow mixed layers. Results from a coupled physical–ecosystem model
substantiate the dominant role of mixed layer processes associated with the
monsoon in controlling the nutrient distribution and biological productivity
in the southern BoB. The present study provides new insights into the
vertical distribution of chlorophyll in the BoB, emphasizing the need for
extensive in situ sampling and ecosystem model-based efforts for a better
understanding of the biophysical interactions and the potential climatic
feedbacks.

Abstract. Freshwater lakes are important in carbon cycling especially in the boreal zone, where many lakes are supersaturated with the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) and emit it to the atmosphere, thus ventilating carbon originally fixed by the terrestrial system. The exchange of CO2 between water and the atmosphere is commonly estimated using simple wind-based parameterizations or models of gas transfer velocity (k). More complex surface renewal models, however, have been shown to yield more correct estimates of k in comparison with direct CO2 flux measurements. We incorporated four gas exchange models with different complexity into a vertical process-based physicobiochemical lake model MyLake C and assessed the performance and applicability of the alternative lake model versions to simulate air-water CO2 fluxes over a small boreal lake. None of the incorporated gas exchange models significantly outperformed the other models in the simulations in comparison to the measured near-surface CO2 concentrations or respective air-water CO2 fluxes calculated directly with the gas exchange models using measurement data as input. The use of more complex gas exchange models in the simulation, on the contrary, led to difficulties in obtaining sufficient gain of CO2 in the water column and thus resulted in lower CO2 fluxes and water column CO2 concentrations compared to the respective measurement-based values. Inclusion of sophisticated and more correct models for air-water CO2 exchange in process-based lake models is crucial in efforts to properly assess lacustrine carbon budgets through model simulations both in single lakes and on a larger scale. However, finding higher estimates for both the internal and the external sources of inorganic carbon in boreal lakes is important if the improved knowledge of the magnitude of CO2 evasion from lakes is included in future studies on lake carbon budgets.

Abstract. An earthquake with a magnitude of MW = 7.5 that occurred in Sulawesi, Indonesia on September 28, 2018, triggered liquefaction and tsunamis that caused severe damage and many casualties. This paper reports the results of a post-tsunami field survey conducted by a team with members from Indonesia and Taiwan that began 13 days after the earthquake. The main purpose of this survey was to measure the runup of tsunami waves and inundation and observe the damage caused by the tsunami. Measurements were made in 18 selected sites, most in Palu Bay. The survey results show that the runup height ranged from 2 to 10 m and that the inundation distance was between 80 and 510 m. The highest runup (10.5 m) was recorded in Tondo, a complex that has many boarding houses near a university. The longest inundation distance (511 m) was found in Layana, a marketplace. The arrival times of the tsunami waves were quite short and different for each site, typically about 3–8 minutes from the time of the earthquake event. The characteristics of the damage to buildings, facilities, and structures are also summarized. Several indicators of underwater landslides are described. The survey results can be used for the calibration and validation of hydrodynamic models for tsunamis. They can also be used for regional reconstruction, mitigation, planning, and development.

Authors: Farias Mayrhon José Abrantes , Wiggers Ingrid Dittrich , Almeida Dulce Maria Filgueira de
Published: April 2019

A pesquisa tem por objetivo descrever e caracterizar brincadeiras de luta forjadas no cotidiano de uma escola pública de São Luís – MA, buscando compreender seus sentidos/significados para as próprias crianças. Realizou-se estudo de inspiração etnográfica, em que a análise das informações obtidas permitiu identificar três eixos, que conferem às brincadeiras os seguintes sentidos: imaginação/representação, disputa/duelo e prazer/vertigem. Os episódios registrados sugerem que, seja por intermédio das mídias, de vivências na comunidade ou na escola, as práticas analisadas são (re)criadas através da experiência infantil. Apreendeu-se, ainda, que o lúdico e a violência/agressividade coexistem nas práticas corporais observadas.

A pesquisa desenvolve reflexões sobre sentidos enunciados em reportagens exibidas no programa televisivo Esporte Espetacular durante o mês de janeiro de 2017. O conjunto enunciativo investigado apresentou como as aulas de educação física escolar são desenvolvidas em quatro países: Brasil, Inglaterra, Estados Unidos e Japão. Metodologicamente, a Análise de Discurso Crítica (ADC) proporcionou a identificação das representações relacionais entre esporte e educação, e as estratégias discursivas construídas nessas reportagens. A reflexão sobre o texto/imagem como discurso social e a potência das representações esportivas como fenômeno discursivo e ideológico, torna a enunciação esportiva o currículo majoritário no ambiente educacional relativo às aulas de educação física escolar.
A Conceptual Framework for Trust-building to Promote Teacher Leadership
Authors: Zugelder Bryan S. , Hayes B. Grant
Published: April 2019

This article proposes a conceptual framework for building trust between principals and teachers for the purpose of empowering teacher leaders within a school environment. While instructional leadership is the ultimate responsibility of the school principal, researchers have recognized they cannot perform alone. Therefore, it is necessary for principals to build trust with teachers. The concept of principal and teacher trust appears throughout educational leadership research; however, a clear conceptual framework which demonstrates a method for creating and ensuring trust can be used as a teaching tool in principal and teacher leadership preparation. Implications for research include testing and validating the framework, while investigating findings on its effectiveness.
Swordplay Uncloaked: Women as Active Agents in Ana Caro’sValor, agravio, y mujerand Lope de Vega’sLa pobreza estimada
Authors: Petersen Elizabeth Marie Cruz
Published: April 2019

This article explores possible dance and swordplay choreography in Felix Lope de Vega’s La pobreza estimada (1597–1603) and Ana Caro’s Valor, agravio, y mujer (1630s–1640s) in hopes of shedding light on the manner in which women as active agents or bodies in transaction contributed to the sociopolitical discourse of the space in theater. The excerpts and images examined from treatises on acting, dance, and swordsmanship, such as Alonso López Pinciano’s Philosophía antigua poética (1596), Juan de Esquivel Navarro’s Discursos sobre el arte del danzado (1642), and Luis Pacheco de Narváez’s Libro de las grandezas de la espada (1600), help the reader envision women wielding swords in early modern Spanish theater.

A busca pelo desenvolvimento das competências tem sido objeto de pesquisa da academia e das organizações. Por isso, a problemática deste estudo questiona quais são as competências dos secretários executivos à luz do eixo das competências humanas. Para tanto, objetiva analisar, com base no modelo da avaliação por competências, os profissionais que atuam como secretários executivos numa instituição de ensino superior pública de Pernambuco. A avaliação por competências tem sido muito utilizada nas organizações, o modelo permite avaliar o profissional a partir dos eixos do conhecimento, da habilidade e da atitude (CHA). Foi realizada uma pesquisa de campo de caráter exploratório. A amostra foi composta de 27 profissionais que atuam como secretários executivos. Os dados coletados foram submetidos às análises quantitativas. Considerando o eixo das competências na dimensão do conhecimento, os resultados indicaram que apenas 11% dos entrevistados possuem formação acadêmica em secretariado, ou seja, 89% atuam como secretários sem essa formação curricular; na dimensão das habilidades, cerca de 90% foram favoráveis quanto à organização de tarefas, materiais e documentos; na dimensão da atitude, 92% consideram que trabalham com ética e mantêm posturas profissionais adequadas no ambiente de trabalho.
