Published: March 2024

Abstract. The 79° North Glacier (Nioghalvfjerdsbrae, 79NG) is one of three remaining glaciers with a floating tongue in Greenland. Although the glacier has been considered exceptionally stable in the past, earlier studies have shown that the ice tongue has thinned in recent decades. By conducting high-resolution ground-based and airborne radar measurements in conjunction with satellite remote-sensing observations, we find significant changes in the geometry of 79NG. In the vicinity of the grounding line, a 500 m high subglacial channel has grown since ∼ 2010 and has caused surface lowering of up to 7.6 m a−1. Our results show extreme basal melt rates exceeding 150 m a−1 over a period of 17 d within a distance of 5 km from the grounding line, where the ice has thinned by 32 % since 1998. We find a heterogeneous distribution of melt rates, likely due to variability in water column thickness and channelization of the ice base. Time series of melt rates show a decrease in basal melting since 2018, indicating an inflow of colder water into the cavity below 79NG. We discuss the processes that have led to the changes in geometry and conclude that the inflow of warm ocean currents has led to the extensive thinning of 79NG's floating ice tongue near the grounding line over the last 2 decades. In contrast, we hypothesize that the growth of the channel results from increased subglacial discharge due to a considerably enlarged area of summer surface melt due to the warming of the atmosphere.

The paper presents the results of studying the state of non-specific cellular protection in piglets in the early postnatal period under conditions of an industrial farming. It has been established that the piglets reared under the sows who had recovered from postpartum diseases differed from the animals reared by clinically healthy sows by a reduced level of stab and segmented neutrophils (day 5), lymphocytes (day 20), monocytes, absorption and induced metabolic activity of neutrophils and increased content of eosinophils in all research periods. The data obtained indicate a weakening of the cellular link of the natural non-specific resistance of piglets reared by the sows who had recovered from postpartum diseases, and a predisposition to the development of inflammatory processes.

The article presents the results of studying the formation of nonspecific resistance in piglets during vaccination against circovirus infection. It has been established that vaccination is accompanied by activation of the innate immune system. At the same time, vaccination has an effect on the homeostasis of animals, manifested by a decrease in the content of segmented neutrophils, albumins, phagocyte reserve index, immunoregulatory index, an increase in the level of circulating immune complexes and their pathogenicity. To reduce the stress effect on the body during vaccination, it is advisable to simultaneously use means that optimize the homeostasis of animals.

The article presents the results of studies on the morphological transformations of the follicular epithelium dur-ing oogenesis in an autosex hybrid of the Japanese quail under industrial growing conditions. Depending on the morphology of the follicular epithelium at different stages of its development, 7 stages were first identified, each of which corresponds to a certain diameter of the oocyte and a certain stage of oogenesis. It has been established that the development of the oocyte and the surrounding follicular epithelium during oogenesis in an autosex hybrid of the Japanese quail is another example of covariation within a single functional system – the follicle. The follicular epithelium of birds cannot be considered primitive, neither phylogenetically (this class is quite high in the vertebrate phylogeny) nor ontogenetically.

The article presents the results of a study on the state of specific cellular immunity in suckling piglets at an in-dustrial pig breeding farm. In the piglets reared under the sows that had experienced postpartum diseases, cellular immunodeficiency was established at the age of 20 days, caused by insufficient activation of the functioning of the own immune system and characterized by a reduced abandance of relative and absolute lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, theophylline-resistant and theophylline-sensitive T-cells and B-lymphocytes. The data obtained indicate a slowdown in the formation of specific cellular defense in them, which may have a negative effect on the formation of adaptive immunity during the specific prevention of infectious diseases.

Published: March 2024

The research findings show that the kidneys of the grass snake (Natrix natrix) are elongated flattened, there is no differentiation between the cortex and medulla, from the outside the organ is protected by a layer of adipose tissue. As a feature of the histological structure of the common grass snake kidneys, one can distinguish group accumulations of vascular glomeruli in the cortical substance, cellular polymphorism in the structure of the walls of the proximal and distal convoluted tubules, as well as their expansion and overflow of the lumen with urates. This feature, in our opinion, may also have an adaptive value, characterized by the ability of the kidneys, in the absence of a bladder, to convert waste nitrogenous compounds into uric acid, which is a hardly soluble substance, therefore, it is excreted using a small amount of water. When studying the collecting ducts of the common snake kidneys, the presence of a highly turbid cytoplasm with an indistinguishable nucleus inside the cell was noted. The obtained results of the research complement and systematize the information about the topography and structural organization of the urinary organs of snakes, which is recommended for breeders and veterinarians to take into account when performing diagnostic and surgical procedures in this species of reptiles.

The paper presents the results of study on high-throughput sequencing of the fungal microbiome in the intesti-nal tract of swine, as well as an assessment of the influence of the feed conversion rate on the biodiversity of the fun-gal community of the intestinal tract of animals. Bioinformatic analysis of nucleotide sequences revealed 3 bacterial phyla in the gut of swine, including Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Microsporidia. The dominant phyla were Ascomycota and Basidiomycota. The most numerous fungi at the family level were representatives of Schizosaccharomycetaceae. The most abundant species in the intestinal microbiome of swine was Schizosaccharomyces pombe (the relative abundance for the two study groups was 9.24 ± 1.49). In the second place in prevalence was the species Colletotrichum higginsianum (relative abundance for group A: 5.44±0.98, for group B 5.97±0.76) and Thermothielavioides terrestris relative abundance for group A: 3.96±0, 67, for group B 4.37±0.46). A comparative bioinformatic analysis of the intestinal mycobiome of two groups of swine with different feed conversion rates did not reveal significant differences at the level of phylum, family and species. The results demonstrate the need for further detailed study of this issue.

A DE Novo multi criteria heterogeneous group decision making approach for green performance assessment of CNC machine tools
Authors: Dutta Soumik , Bairagi Bipradas , Dey Balaram
Published: March 2024

In the contemporaneous sustainable manufacturing scenario and fourth industrial revolutions, requirements of most cutting-edge CNC machine tools are indispensable for finished products with high accuracy, precision and green complaints in particular. Such requirements have impelled the advanced manufacturing industries to evaluate and choose the proper CNC machine tools for best customized performances. In the face of proper and effective green evaluation, this paper incorporates a heterogeneous expert group based decision framework considering multiple significant technical and green criteria by assessing relative importance of diverse conflicting criteria having substantial contribution in performance analysis of CNC machine tools. As a demonstration of the suggested mathematical model, three real life decision making problems related to 3 axes-CNC machine tools based on the collected quantitative and linguistic data from catalogues, manufacturer’s portals, questionnaires, customer reviews etc. are established. The calculated findings are close to those obtained by previous researchers as well as are verified by well-established techniques. Besides, sensitivity and statistical analysis are performed to examine the robustness and stability of the ranking orders of the alternatives as well as to investigate the efficacy and consistency of the proposed method. Hence thus proposed formulated MCDM approach proves to be a highly effective and reliable decision making tool for choosing the most suitable CNC machine tools.

Published: March 2024

The kinetics and isotherm modeling of adsorption of Cr3+ ions onto unmodified coffee husk (UCH) and acid modified coffee husk (MCH) biosorbent were successfully studied in batch experiments. Equilibrium data were analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. Equilibrium data best fitted to Langmuir isotherm. The Langmuir adsorption capacity was higher in MCH (6.64 mg/g) compared to the UCH (3.85 mg/g). The adsorption constant, b, was less than one in the two adsorption processes suggesting a high affinity of both the UCH and MCH adsorbent for Cr3+ ions. The experimental data were fitted well with pseudo second order kinetics with best fitness for both the UCH and MCH with regression coefficient (R2) of 0.9792 and 0.9956, respectively. The findings revealed that the unmodified and modified coffee husks have potential in removal of Cr3+ from tannery wastewater

This clinical case report details the management of denture stomatitis in a 78-year-old female with uncontrolled Type II diabetes and chronic oral candidiasis. Presenting with discomfort and lesions under her decade-long worn partial denture, her condition was indicative of inflammatory papillary hyperplasia and fungal infection. Management involved a combination of systemic and local antifungal treatments, diode laser surgical removal of nodular lesions, fabrication of a new denture, and extensive oral hygiene education. Over a two-year period, a significant decrease in Candida levels was observed, though the persistence of the fungus necessitated ongoing monitoring. This case highlights the complexities of treating denture stomatitis in patients with systemic health issues, emphasizing the need for a multidisciplinary treatment approach and continuous care.
The heterogeneous impacts of widespread upzoning: Lessons from Auckland, New Zealand
Authors: Yiu Edward
Published: March 2024

Zoning reform is increasingly recognised as an important strategy to increase housing affordability and environmental sustainability. Few cities have undertaken significant upzoning of low-density neighbourhoods, making the 2016 Auckland Unitary Plan (AUP) probably the most ambitious zoning reform in the world. Parcels zoned for single houses previously dominated Auckland, but three-quarters of them now allow multiple units. Existing studies have documented the building boom that followed this zoning reform, yet the relatively rare case offers additional insights. In this article, we use appraisal, census and zoning data on over 200,000 parcels in Auckland to answer three research questions about the heterogeneous impacts of the AUP. First, to what extent did upzoning increase the appraised value of properties’ redevelopment options? Second, did upzoning increase appraised property values to a greater degree in higher-income and more centrally located neighbourhoods? Finally, was zoning reform in Auckland significantly influenced by similar political pressures as in other countries? That is, was upzoning less likely (and downzoning more likely) in higher-income neighbourhoods? The answers to these three questions are substantially, it’s complicated, and yes.

Published: March 2024

Almost all of the water needs of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, which has limited water resources, have been met from groundwater resources in the past, and the usable groundwater potential of the island has decreased over the years due to excessive water withdrawal and the entry of seawater into the underground aquifer. Although many facilities have been constructed to solve the water supply problem in the TRNC, these facilities have been insufficient in terms of quantity and water quality to meet the water needs of the TRNC. In order to achieve a long-term solution to the Cyprus water supply issue, the “TRNC Water Supply Project”, which is based on the uninterrupted transfer of water to the TRNC through pipes, has been implemented. “TRNC Water Supply Project”, called the “Project of the Century”, is one of the prestige projects for our country and nation. Within the scope of the project, 75 million m3 of water per year from the Alaköprü Dam built on the Anamur Dragon Stream is transferred to the Geçitköy Dam in the TRNC through land and sea conveyance lines. The annual 75 million m3 of water to be supplied from Turkey will be used for drinking water and irrigation purposes. Within the scope of drinking water projects, drinking water facilities have been constructed to ensure the delivery of water to all settlements in the TRNC, a distribution system above world standards with a loss-leakage rate of less than 1% has been established, the Drinking Water Treatment Plant with a capacity of 200,000 m3/day has been put into operation and the people of TRNC have been provided with drinking water at world standards and have reached the spring quality water of the Taurus Mountains instead of the salty water supplied from wells. Within the scope of irrigation projects; with the irrigation facilities built and under construction, approximately 97.200 decares of agricultural land in the fertile plains of the TRNC will have the modern irrigation systems they have been longing for years and will be fertile with sprinkler and drip irrigation. With the completion of irrigation systems, the cultivation of strategic products, diversification of plant patterns, increased productivity and income, employment opportunities and an increase in quality of life and welfare will be achieve
Deprem Hasarlarının Nedenleri ve Dayanıklı Yapılar için Öneriler
Authors: Korkmaz Hasan Hüsnü
Published: March 2024

Although Turkey is in the earthquake zone, it is a country where the majority of the housing stock is not earthquake resistant. While more than 30,000 people lost their lives in the 1999 Marmara earthquake, more than 50,000 people died in the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake. The earthquake affected 11 provinces and a total of 14 million people. The destruction has been very great in Hatay province. It was filed in newly built structures next to the old buildings. Almost 90% of the buildings in the city were either destroyed or caused severe to moderate damage. The existing housing stock is completely problematic from the structural system design to the material details and quality. The problems that started from the choice of parcel geometry continued with the choice of non-continuous and irregular structural system. In addition, errors in the reinforcement details and low concrete strength caused the buildings to collapse after the earthquake. The most common causes of failure in the region can be considered as soft floor, strong beam-weak column formation, insufficient reinforced concrete shear walls and rigidity, irregular structures, short beam and short column formations
Scientific Research on socio-economic characteristics of farmers and their problems: A Study in Regulated Market of Balasore District.

Published: March 2024

The two main avenues via which agricultural produce is gathered, distributed, and resold in rural India are the regulated markets set up by the State Governments and the sporadic marketplaces that have developed naturally and are unregulated. Under the auspices of extensive regulations that have been formulated and amended periodically by the corresponding state Agricultural Produce Marketing Regulation Act, agricultural produce market committees have been established to promote equitable trade. Since their inception, regulated markets have assisted in reducing market disadvantages; yet, the competitive market structure was not well-foreseen by their legal framework. In an environment of liberalized trade, this paves the way for the market committee to become more manageable and sustainable. Given the dependence of other sectors on agriculture, India has viewed it as a valuable tool for economic progress.The regulated markets are regarded as accountable establishments that carry out all the tasks associated with the selling of products while considering the interests of all final consumers as a whole. The current paper highlights Indian agriculture, with a particular emphasis on the regulated agricultural marketing system and its development, status, and prospects. The report also emphasizes the difficulties and impact of a regulated market on farmers' socioeconomic standing. At the study's conclusion, a number of restrictions that either directly or indirectly impacted the farmers' socioeconomic standing were mentioned. To comprehend the link between the dependent and independent variables, a variety of statistical methods were employed. To arrive at the ultimate outcome, an ex post facto research design was mostly employed.

The authors has identified the difficulties of practical implementation of the rules on hereditary transmission associated with the possibility of accepting the inheritance in an actual way - by performing actions aimed at its acceptance. Substantiates the conclusion that since the institute of hereditary transmission, first of all, is designed to ensure compliance with the last will of the deceased, as well as the interests of their heirs, the rules on hereditary transmission should take a special place in the system of legal norms aimed at achieving the objectives of state policy to preserve and strengthen traditional Russian spiritual and moral values. The conclusion is made comes to the conclusion that in order to resolve the issue of the possibility of applying the rules on hereditary transmission, the acceptance of the inheritance by the deceased heir (transmitter) in an actual way must be confirmed by the commission of such an heir during his lifetime of actions indicating the intention to acquire the rights to hereditary property.

The study was conducted to investigate the lexical variances observed in the Ewe language spoken among the Ho group. This study aims to examine the observed variations in speech patterns among both indigenous individuals and immigrants residing in the vicinity of Ho, the capital city of the Volta Region. The data analysis used the application of Labov's variationist theory from 1996 and Giles' speech accommodation theory from 1973. Information was gathered from native communities and those who had migrated to the area under investigation. The research employed a qualitative methodology and utilized purposive sampling procedures. The data were acquired through the utilization of observational methods, interviews, and the analysis of live radio broadcasts. Investigations have uncovered substantial regional and social disparities in the Ewe language spoken in Ho, leading to the utilization of distinct linguistic characteristics in everyday communication. The dialects within the speech community exhibit lexical, phonological, and grammatical diversity. There are some lexicons that the three dialects share, while others are unique to only two of the three dialects. Additionally, there are certain lexicons that are different from one dialect to another. The study provides confirmation that the dialectal backgrounds of language users within the speech community do not have an impact on the issue of mutual understanding. This is evident from the fact that the Eedome, Aŋlↄ and Tↄŋu dialects can be considered as being mutually intelligible. Keywords: Lexical, variation, ewe language, Eedome and Tↄŋu or Aŋlↄ, Tↄŋu, Ho

The rapid advancement of technology in today's world necessitates the development and deployment of robust and efficient networking architectures. This paper focuses on the relevant of creation and implementation of software defined networking (SDN) solutions for a university network, which offer improved network reachability and ease of navigation for network technicians. Utilizing the Ubuntu server command line interface within a virtual platform, all software defined networking components were seamlessly installed using a secure file transfer protocol client. To evaluate the effectiveness of the implemented SDN, Mininet was employed to supply OpenFlow switches within the software defined networking environment. This allowed for the integration of commands into a controller for thorough testing and assessment. The main parameters used in this paper are hosts, switches and a controller as the focus is on a single controller network. Because software defined networking centralizes and optimizes computer networks and removes irrelevant packets and frequent assaults for quick network performance, it makes networking intelligent and has several advantages over traditional networks. The successful implementation of software defined networking, as demonstrated in this paper, ensures that network technicians can swiftly identify and address challenges within computer networks of universities. This not only simplifies their tasks but also contributes to the overall efficiency and reliability of the network infrastructure.

This study utilizes benchmarking techniques to monitor productivity change in relation to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 1, 8, and 9, addressing the challenges faced by countries in interpreting measures. The first SDG 1, “No Poverty”, aims to completely eliminate poverty. The objective of SDG 8, “Decent Work and Economic Growth”, is to foster comprehensive economic advancement. Finally, SDG 9, “Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure”, focuses on the creation of durable and sustainable infrastructure, as well as promoting innovation to drive economic progress. Economic development, job creation, wealth creation, and poverty eradication are crucial for sustainable development. However, there is no other study estimating the evolution of countries’ performance in terms of these SDGs, whether countries have converged or not, and how each of these SDGs contributes to this performance development. This is the main goal of the present study, which compares 85 countries (2010–2020) from different profiles (developing, emerging, and developed) in terms of several SDG indicators. We applied data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Malmquist productivity indices that quantify changes in efficiency and technology over time to assess productivity dynamics and improvements. Results showed that emerging countries showed the highest productivity development, followed by developing countries and finally developed countries. The slower productivity development in developed countries indicates stagnation, allowing emerging countries to converge in terms of wealth creation, distribution, and poverty reduction.
Epistemología y metodología de la investigación: articulaciones básicas
Authors: Ortega Pérez José Ramiro
Published: March 2024

En el presente trabajo se discute la necesidad de ligar la reflexión epistemológica a la tarea metodológica; ello, en primer lugar, contribuirá a despejar el equívoco de una metodología generalizada y de la investigación como una tarea universal en la que únicamente cambia el enfoque. También, se plantea la necesidad de incluir enfoques epistemológicos basados en la complejidad y en la regionalización de saberes para dar lugar a vías alternas, situadas y específicas a diversos campos de conocimiento. Asimismo, se propone la inclusión de categorías clave que permiten articular saberes compatibles y que, en consecuencia, puedan redundar en la potencia explicativa y en la generación de formas nuevas de investigación en las ciencias humanas. Finalmente, se señala la pertinencia de hacer visibles las condiciones sobre las que construimos los saberes y las actividades investigativas apropiadas a los mismos.

This study offers a comprehensive analysis of the perceptions regarding the gaps in traffic injury laws and the level of judicial security in Ecuador. By employing a neutrosophic approach, which incorporates degrees of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity, the study synthesizes data from legal professionals to assess the need for legislative reform. The use of the Indeterminate Likert Scale and the Triple Refined Indeterminate Neutrosophic Sets (TRINS) enriches the evaluation of nuanced opinions on traffic injuries that result in minimal disability. The resulting insights reveal a significant recognition of the inadequacies within the current legal framework and highlight a societal demand for enhanced legal measures and improved trust in judicial processes. This study underscores the urgency for legal reforms that would bridge the current legislative voids, ensuring justice and protection for traffic injury victims, thereby strengthening the legal system’s accountability and public confidence.

The Museum of Innocence (2009) delves into love and everyday objects of love to explain the country's cultural emissions and political issues due to cultural contradiction with few characters in the novel. The novel is planned as a love story but is written in a decidedly unorthodox narrative style. The narrative is focused on the lovers' connection and revolves around Kemal's alterations due to his love for Fusun. He brings the supernatural close to the material, combining them most unexpectedly. Pamuk's construction of the actual museum in the memory of Fusun was discussed. Pamuk spoke about the memories of Fusun in Kemal's story narration with the portrayal of cultural indifference in Turkey. Further, this paper brings out the clash between fundamental traditional Islam and modern secularism by portraying the westernisation lifestyle of Istanbul's bourgeois society. The research paper concentrated on women's status and depicted the concept of virginity.
“Os Homens Estruturam um Mundo Deles e para Eles”: A Violência Política de Gênero como Estratégia Ortodoxa de Reprodução do Campo Político
Authors: Kulaitis Letícia Figueira Moutinho
Published: March 2024

No campo político, as mulheres são reconhecidas como agentes recém-chegadas. Na disputa pelo capital político, os homens produzem estratégias ortodoxas para manter o status quo. A violência política de gênero, incluindo constrangimentos físicos, morais, psicológicos e sexuais, busca limitar a participação das mulheres na política. Para contribuir com o debate sobre o fenômeno, foram analisadas histórias de violência política de gênero que indicam a materialização desta estratégia e seus efeitos nas trajetórias de mulheres sujeitas a opressões de gênero, raça e classe. Essa violência também prejudica a democracia, impedindo uma representação diversa e inclusiva. Mulheres, em posição marginal no campo político, podem subverter esse estado de coisas, conforme sugerido por Erika Hilton, deputada federal negra e transgênero, desafiando a ideia de que o mundo é exclusivamente masculino.

Bài viết nghiên cứu tác động của chính sách tiền tệ (CSTT) đến chỉ số VN-Index trên thị trường chứng khoán (TTCK) Việt Nam giai đoạn 2009 - 2022 bằng mô hình VAR dạng cấu trúc (Structural VAR - SVAR). Thông qua 7 yếu tố tác động bao gồm: cung tiền (M2), lãi suất (IR), lãi suất Liên bang Mỹ (FED), giá dầu WTI (OILWTI), chỉ số sản xuất công nghiệp (IPI), chỉ số giá tiêu dùng (CPI), tỷ giá (EX) đến TTCK Việt Nam (VNI). Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy tăng M2 hỗ trợ làm tăng giá chứng khoán trong khi tăng IR lại có tác động xấu đáng kể đến TTCK. Bên cạnh đó, IPI, CPI và EX có tác động ngược chiều đến TTCK Việt Nam. Kết quả này hàm ý rằng các nhà hoạch định chính sách cần vận dụng CSTT linh hoạt ứng với mục tiêu kinh tế của từng thời kì khác nhau nhằm hỗ trợ phát triển TTCK. Các nhà đầu tư nên quan tâm sự thay đổi của CSTT để đầu tư hiệu quả hơn.
