CARIB12: a regional Community Earth System Model/Modular Ocean Model 6 configuration of the Caribbean Sea
Authors: Seijo-Ellis Giovanni , Giglio Donata , Marques Gustavo , Bryan Frank
Published: December 2024

Abstract. A new Community Earth System Model/Modular Ocean Model 6 (CESM/MOM6) ocean-only regional 1/12° configuration of the Caribbean Sea is presented and validated. The model configuration was developed as a response to the rising need for high-resolution models for climate impact applications. The configuration is validated for the period covering 2000–2020 against ocean reanalysis and a suite of observation-based datasets. Particular emphasis is paid to the configuration's ability to represent the dynamical regime and properties of the region across sub-seasonal, seasonal, and inter-annual timescales. Near-surface fields of temperature, salinity, and sea surface height are well represented. In particular, the seasonal cycle of sea surface salinity and the spatial pattern of the low salinity associated with the Amazon and Orinoco river plumes is well captured. Surface speeds compare favorably against reanalysis and show that the mean flows within the Caribbean Sea (CS) are well represented. The model reproduces known pathways and timing for river plume waters intruding the region. The seasonal cycle of the mixed-layer depth is also well represented, with biases of <3 m when comparing to ocean reanalysis. The vertical structure and stratification across the water column is represented favorably against ship-based observations, with the largest simulated biases in the near-surface water mass and the sub-surface salinity maximum associated with the sub-tropical underwater mass. The temperature and salinity variability in the vertical structure is well represented in the model solution. We show that mean ocean mass transport across the multiple passages in the eastern Caribbean Sea compares favorably to observation-based estimates, but the model exhibits smaller variability and underestimates the mean Yucatán Channel transport when compared to observations and ocean reanalysis estimates. Furthermore, a brief comparison against a 1° CESM global ocean configuration shows that the higher-resolution regional model better represents the extent and seasonality of the Amazon River plume and hence better represents near-surface salinity and mixed-layer depth in the CS. Overall, the regional model reproduces the processes within the Caribbean Sea to a good degree and opens the possibility of regional ocean climate studies in support of decision-making within CESM.
Process-based modeling framework for sustainable irrigation management at the regional scale: Integrating rice production, water use, and greenhouse gas emissions
Authors: Bo Yan , Liang Hao , Li Tao , Zhou Feng
Published: December 2024

Abstract. Rice cultivation faces multiple challenges of rising food demand while increasing water scarcity and greenhouse gas emissions, intensifying the tension of the food-water-climate nexus. Process-based modeling of the nexus is pivotal for developing effective measures to address these challenges. However, current models struggle to simulate their complex relationships under different water management schemes, primarily due to inadequate representation of critical physiological effects and the absence of efficient spatially explicit modeling strategies. Here, we propose an advancing framework that addresses these problems by integrating a process-based soil-crop model with vital physiological effects, a novel method for model upscaling, and the NSGA-II multi-objective optimization algorithm at a parallel computing platform. Applying the framework accounted for 52 %, 60 %, 37 %, and 94 % of the experimentally observed variations in rice yield, irrigation water use, and methane and nitrous oxide emissions in response to irrigation schemes. Compared with the origin model using traditional parameter upscaling methods, the advancing framework significantly reduced simulation errors by 35 %−85 %. Moreover, it well reproduced the multivariable synergies and tradeoffs observed in China’s rice fields and identified additional 18 % areas feasible for irrigation optimization, along with an additional 11 % and 14 % reduction potentials of water use and methane emissions, without compromising production. Over 90 % of the potentials could be realized at the cost of 4 % less yield increase and 25 % higher nitrous oxide emissions under multiple objectives. Overall, this study provides a valuable tool for multi-objective optimization of rice irrigation schemes. The advancing framework also has implications for other process-based modelling improvements efforts.
Snow depth sensitivity to mean temperature, precipitation, and elevation in the Austrian and Swiss Alps

Published: December 2024

Abstract. Snow depth plays an important role in the seasonal climatic and hydrological cycles of alpine regions. Previous studies have shown predominantly decreasing trends in average seasonal snow depth across the European Alps. Additionally, prior work has shown bivariate statistical relationships between average seasonal snow depth and mean air temperature or precipitation. Building upon existing research, our study uses observational records of in situ station data across Austria and Switzerland to better quantify the sensitivity of historical changes in seasonal snow depth through a multivariate framework that depends on elevation, mean temperature, and precipitation. These historical sensitivities, which are obtained over the 1901–1902 to 1970–1971 period, are then used to estimate snow depths over the more recent period of 1971–1972 to 2020–2021. We find that the year-to-year estimates of snow depths, which are derived from an empirical–statistical model (SnowSens), that rely solely on the historical sensitivities are nearly as skillful as the operational SNOWGRID-CL model used by the weather service at GeoSphere Austria. Furthermore, observed long-term changes over the last 50 years are in better agreement with SnowSens than with SNOWGRID-CL. These results indicate that historical sensitivities between snow depth, temperature, and precipitation are quite robust over decadal-length scales of time, and they can be used effectively to translate expected long-term changes in temperature and precipitation into changes in seasonal snow depth.
Investigating the impacts of telecommuting on the spatial, temporal, and modal distribution of travel using an agent-based transport simulation model
Authors: Saha Bijoy , Fatmi Mahmudur Rahman , Khan Nazmul Arefin
Published: December 2024

Technological advancements over the past few decades have facilitated telecommuting, but its adoption surged significantly when travel restrictions forced workers to work from home during the pandemic. This shift significantly reduced peak-hour traffic flow and congestion, but the impact of this travel demand management strategy on 24-hour travel is not well understood. This study aims to evaluate the impacts of telecommuting on 24-hour traffic flow using an agent-based transport simulator. Methodologically, a nested structure is implemented to generate departure time, mode, and destination choice joint decisions and accommodate inter-dependencies. Given the behavioral differences among different population groups, separate models are implemented for these different groups: commuters, telecommuters, non-workers, students attending school in-person/online. Following the generation of 24-hour activities, activity itineraries are applied within a dynamic agent-based multimodal transport network model using the open-source MATSim platform. This modeling and simulation exercise has been implemented for the entire population of the Okanagan region of British Columbia, Canada. After thorough validation, the simulation results suggest that with the increase in telecommuting population, an increase in all types of non-mandatory travel is predicted to occur near the urban centers during the off-peak hours – resulting in the spreading of the peak over the day.

Здесь происходит слияние криминально субкультуры, точнее ее частного случая – тюремно субкультуры – с субкультуро радикального сообщества. С одно стороны, учреждения уголовно-исполнительной системы обеспечивают безопасность общества, изолируя экстремистов, но с друго – здесь могут создаваться условия для осуществления всех видов экстремистско деятельности: распространение радикально идеологии, создание группировок, вербовка и др. Поэтому особое место в ней занимают формы и методы теологической ресоциализации осужденных за экстремистские и террористические преступления. Важным и эффективным компонентом в этой работе является дискредитация деструктивных иде и пропаганда традиционных духовных ценносте. При этом, необходимо понимать, что одна теологическая реабилитация, как форма идейного противодействия, не даст желаемого эффекта, если не будет рассматриваться как элемент комплексной ресоциализации. Неотъемлемой частью идеологического противодействия должны стать вопросы культурноисторического, политического, патриотического развития, признанные формировать национальную идентичность и толерантность.
Bioprinting for Skin: Current Approaches, Technological Advancements and the Role of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Castro Thomazi Vinicius , Maurmann Natasha , Pranke Patricia
Published: December 2024

Bioprinting is a technique adapted from 3D printing to create biological constructs, including high-quality skin substitutes. It matches or exceeds the quality of traditional fabrication methods, offering precision, consistency and speed, critical attributes for large-scale production. A variety of materials are used, most of them natural, such as alginate, chitosan and gelatin, with cells incorporated into the bioink. These cells may belong to the replicated tissue or include stem cells that can differentiate into the desired cell types. Bioprinting enables precise placement of the skin’s layers: hypodermis, dermis and epidermis, allowing for replication of the skin’s complex architecture. Notably, bioprinted skin constructs can closely resemble native tissue, even forming structures like hair follicles and glands as the incorporated cells grow, migrate and differentiate. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have recently been applied to enhance efficiency, precision and success. AI tools reduce trial and error by optimizing parameters, bioink composition and quality control. This review explores bioprinting methods, materials and advancements, including in situ bioprinting, the use of robotic devices and the emerging role of artificial intelligence.
Multistage classification in SDN security: a machine learning approach using real-world data for enhanced intrusion and vulnerability detection
Authors: Sengayo Ndabuye , Basikolo Thomas
Published: December 2024

The evolution from conventional network frameworks to Software-Defined Networks (SDNs) marks a pivotal shift in network management. SDNs offer a unique architecture where a centralized controller orchestrates network traffic, separating the control plane from the data plane. This architecture not only brings enhanced flexibility, agility, and scalability to network operations but also introduces specific security challenges, primarily due to the centralization of control, which can be a potential Single Point of Failures (SPOFs). Addressing these security concerns, this paper introduces an innovative machine learning-based Intrusion Detection System (IDS) tailored for SDNs, by proposing a three-stage CatBoost Classifier (3CC). This classifier is specifically designed for efficient and effective intrusion and vulnerability detection within SDN environments. The multistage aspect of the classifier allows for refined and detailed analysis, catering to a diverse array of attack vectors. Another key feature of our approach is the utilization of real-world data from SDN environments, which ensures that our model is tested and validated under realistic and current conditions. Furthermore, the integration of GPU acceleration significantly enhances the training speed of our model, a critical factor given the voluminous nature of network data. The proposed model, 3CC, demonstrates remarkable performance in our evaluations, achieving an accuracy of 99.8966%. This high level of precision in detecting and identifying various network intrusions and vulnerabilities underlines the efficacy of our approach. Our paper contributes significantly to the field of SDN security, offering a sophisticated, multistage classification solution that leverages the latest in machine learning techniques and real-world applicability.
Digital signature-based authentication framework in Cognitive radio-Internet of Vehicles
Authors: Hossain Mohammad Amzad , Miah Md. Sipon , Armada Ana Garcia
Published: December 2024

The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is an evolution of the Internet of Things (IoT). IoV allows real-time information-sharing of intra-vehicle, inter-vehicle and vehicle to the roadside base stations, which improves transport safety and reduces road traffic accidents. Due to the increased number of vehicles in IoV networks, the allocated spectrum bands are not sufficient for a large number of vehicles. Cognitive Radio-enabled IoV (CR-IoV) is a novel concept that mitigates the spectrum shortage problem by allowing unlicensed user access to the licensed user spectrum in convenient conditions. Due to the dynamic spectrum sharing feature of CR-IoV, a Malicious User (MU) can easily perform an attack in the network at any time. To mitigate this problem, we propose a digital signature-based authentication framework secure cooperative spectrum sensing technique for detecting the MU in the CR-IoV network. In this paper, the proposed framework ensures the integrity, authenticity, and non-repudiation of messages exchanged between vehicles and CR-enabled base stations. The framework is designed to detect and mitigate security threats such as impersonation, data tampering, and unauthorized access, which are prevalent in CR-IoV networks. Furthermore, the proposed solution addresses the Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) vulnerability by integrating cryptographic mechanisms into the cognitive radio process, ensuring secure spectrum handovers and minimizing the risk of malicious attacks during spectrum sensing and sharing. Simulation results show that the proposed digital signature-based authentication framework provides 100% correct detection and 0% mis-detection rate for both legitimate users and malicious users in the CR-IoV networks.

Continuously growing Internet penetration over the past couple of decades has already reached the massive level in terms of both the public and the domestic sector, at least in the Western world, new channels and dissemination of information and interpersonal communication are entering into force. New spaces of sociability are setting up whose significance for the maintenance of interpersonal relations, for the formation of the public image of the person and for the promotion of self-presentation to wide publics is gradually increasing. When trying to understand this significance, a clear distinction should be made between self-presentation in anonymous and non-anonymous Internet environments, because personal presence and performance in these environments is influenced by fundamentally different reasons and different communication logic. In anonymous environments, a person can introduce oneself to the audience as being anyone and can freely experiment with different social roles – both realistic and fully imagined, even fantastic. Meanwhile, in non-anonymous environments the information presented by a person about oneself has at least partially meet the reality, because these communication platforms take on the nature of communal gatherings where their members usually try to establish and maintain authentic social relationships, therefore here a real-life accepted norms and values prevail, sincerity and openness being amongst them. This article focuses on the person‘s self-presentation logic and strategy in non-anonymous online environments, raising the questions about the objectives and motives of self-presentation in a virtual environment; what personal information is usually made public and in what ways; to what extent these virtual self-portraits are authentic; and whether they can be considered as a kind of personal identity expressions.

of the „stealing heart“ scene is to be found in the famous love allegory Le livre du couer
d‘amours épris by „king“ René Ier d‘Anjou, dit le Bon (1409–1480). A bizarre motif
in medieval European literature should also be mentioned: the topic of „eating one‘s
lover‘s heart“. Usually called by the German name Herzmäre (= Heart-story), the story
might stem from Late Ancient India. European witchcraft texts refer often to heart
eating women. As for the belief on the origin of witches, eating the heart, early German
sources rejecting (and thus quoting) pagan beliefs are of utmost importance.

Advanced startup transient model of a dual-cage induction motor for a broken rotor bar fault using a standstill test
Authors: Abdelhakim Mabrek , Elyazid Zaidi , Eddine Hemsas Kamel , Raouf Zerougui , Selmoune Bachir
Published: December 2024

Large induction motors used for traction applications that require loaded starts may have relatively complex dual-cage rotors. The outer cage typically withstands prolonged startup times and high starting currents, which increases the likelihood of fatigue failures, such as broken rotor bars (BRB). These failures result in high levels of stress in dual-cage induction motor (DCIM) drives. In this research, we aim to demonstrate the effect of the degree of damage on the characteristics of the DCIM during the starting phase. Before this, it is necessary to develop a higher-order model that enables us to better understand large transient operations. For this reason, a modern measuring device for the identification of electric machines, known as standstill frequency response testing (SSFR), is proposed here. The findings were verified experimentally using a 7.5 kW DCIM under various load and failure scenarios. The BRB model demonstrates that the proposed method is an effective tool for BRB modeling and diagnosis purposes.

Published: December 2024

The construction industry, in search of sustainable and economical solutions, is increasingly turning to waste recovery to reduce its environmental impact. Ceramic waste, mainly from the production and demolition of tiles and similar materials, and plastic waste from various industrial sectors, is abundant and often poorly managed. The purpose of this work is to investigate the contribution of industrial waste to improving mortar performance by examining the use of ceramic waste as a partial replacement for cement and plastic waste as a partial replacement for sand. Tests on density, compressive strength, flexural tensile strength, water absorption, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and the effect of elevated temperature were carried out on the mixes studied. The results showed that the optimum mix for flexural strength was the one containing 20% ceramic waste at 28 days. The wave propagation velocity results show that mixes containing only ceramic waste are of good quality, with propagation velocities ranging from 3500 m/s to 4500 m/s. Mixtures containing only 10% or 20% ceramic exhibit better flexural and compressive strength than normal mortar at 150°C. This work contributes to sustainable development by eliminating ceramic and plastic waste from the environment.

Published: December 2024

Introducción: la gamificación se presenta como una herramienta que propone soluciones a la disminución de la motivación en estudiantes. Sin embargo, la evidencia actual es inconclusa y presenta discrepancias, lo que genera que aquellos docentes que desean implementarla tengan dificultades para encontrar fuentes críticas. En este sentido, se plantea realizar una revisión narrativa con el objetivo de esclarecer la situación actual de la gamificación, así como desarrollar y analizar las diferentes tendencias a las que se dirige, los errores más comunes, aspectos sobre los elementos del juego, la gamificación adaptativa, la gamificación en Educación Física y la relación de esta estrategia con las teorías psicológicas que lo fundamentan. Metodología: se realizó una búsqueda estructurada en las bases de datos de Web of Science (WoS), Scopus, Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), PubMed, SciELO y Dialnet. Un total de 64 artículos fueron incluidos. Resultados y discusión: los resultados ofrecen a los docentes conocimientos sobre las teorías psicológicas y un uso de la gamificación en atención a los sistemas de elementos de juego existentes. Además, la gamificación adaptativa se postula como una tendencia creciente, considerando las necesidades y los perfiles individuales de los jugadores. En Educación Física, se observan resultados positivos hacia un estilo de vida saludable, especialmente en estudiantes con poca predisposición a la actividad física. Conclusiones: aunque es necesaria cautela y espíritu crítico en la implementación, la gamificación se muestra como una herramienta potencialmente interesante, pudiendo producir efectos positivos sobre las variables motivacionales si se tienen los conocimientos básicos sobre ella.

The current study was conducted in the city of Nasiriyah / Dhi Qar Governorate, the Muhammadiyah region, with longitude and latitude coordinates 310041N" 461811E." It included measuring the environmental characteristics of the water in the study area, such as measuring temperature, turbidity, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, and dissolved oxygen. Samples were analyzed periodically every month and fish muscle tissues were analyzed. Grass carp at the beginning and end of culture. The study used young grass carp. 1765 fish with an average starting weight of 20-35 grams. They were distributed into three treatments with a culture density of 45, 52, and 50 fish/m3. Three floating cages made of galvanized iron were used. Dimensions of one cage (2). ,2,3) m3, An Iranian-made, floating type diet containing 32-38% protein was used for feeding. The study continued for six months, starting in October 2023 until March 2024. Fish samples were weighed every 15 days for the purpose of calculating the amount of feed provided on the basis of the weight gain, 5% of the weight. In the neighborhood, water temperatures during the study months ranged from 17-22°C, dissolved oxygen recorded between 9.33-4.3 mg/l, water electrical conductivity between 1.93-1.11 ppt, total dissolved solids between 2920-2101 mg/l, and pH value of 8.2- 7.3, The results of the study were evaluated according to growth indicators (total weight gain, daily weight gain, relative growth rate, specific growth rate, feed conversion efficiency, feed conversion rate, and protein efficiency ratio) and showed that the best results for these indicators were in the treatment with the lowest culture density. We conclude that the lower density gives the best growth indicators when adopting the culture of grass carp fish in floating cages and adopting artificial feeding with the addition of jet and aquatic plants.
Probing Futures, Acting Today: Unlocking the interplay between imagining alternative futures and future-making practices
Authors: Maessen Caroline
Published: December 2024

The dissertation Probing Futures, Acting Today by Caroline Maessen explores how organisations can imagine alternative futures to change everyday practices and address complex societal challenges. Organisations often constrain their imagination to conventional futures through linear thinking, which hinders effective responses to issues like climate change and social inequality. Maessen investigates why it is difficult for organisations to connect with unconventional futures and align present actions with them. She emphasises the importance of "probing futures," a practice that introduces future artifacts to stimulate dialogue and imagination about possible futures, and to make hidden patterns visible. This process of experimenting, sensing, and responding helps organisations to bridge imagined futures and current actions. The findings show that this way of acting provokes discomfort and retreating responses, especially when stretching imagination sideways. Three empirical studies in (semi)public organisations demonstrate how psychological discomfort can be endured, how relational and "as-if real" approaches support future exploration, and how scaffolding practices are both cognitively and relationally oriented. Maessen advocates for a more dynamic, experiential approach to futures that embraces uncertainty and encourages diverse perspectives. The research offers practical recommendations for creative professionals and educators in higher education.
Study on Inclusive Education for Students with Disabilities in the United States
Authors: Lu Yiqun
Published: December 2024

In the United States, inclusive education aims to provide equal educational opportunities for students with disabilities and their nondisabled peers. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act's requirements for a free appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment provide strong legal support for this. Still, several socioeconomic barriers prevent complete inclusion. Among these are structural limitations, financial difficulties, social attitudes, and the framework of policy implementations. This paper will try to specify the difficult obstacles affecting all aspects of students with disabilities inside the United States' system of education. This will be accomplished by means of a critical literature and data review in respect to inequalities started by underfunding, limited resources, and negative society view. To address such issues, one advises individual, social, legal, and national interventions. The paper supports inclusive policies in implementing federal projects aiming at leveling the playing field for all students, social change, empowerment, and policy reform.
