The importance of vegetation in understanding terrestrial water storage variations
Authors: Trautmann Tina , Koirala Sujan , Carvalhais Nuno , Güntner Andreas , Jung Martin
Published: February 2022

Abstract. So far, various studies have aimed at decomposing the
integrated terrestrial water storage variations observed by satellite
gravimetry (GRACE, GRACE-FO) with the help of large-scale hydrological
models. While the results of the storage decomposition depend on model
structure, little attention has been given to the impact of the way that
vegetation is represented in these models. Although vegetation structure and
activity represent the crucial link between water, carbon, and energy cycles,
their representation in large-scale hydrological models remains a major
source of uncertainty. At the same time, the increasing availability and
quality of Earth-observation-based vegetation data provide valuable
information with good prospects for improving model simulations and gaining
better insights into the role of vegetation within the global water cycle. In this study, we use observation-based vegetation information such as
vegetation indices and rooting depths for spatializing the parameters of a
simple global hydrological model to define infiltration, root water uptake,
and transpiration processes. The parameters are further constrained by
considering observations of terrestrial water storage anomalies (TWS), soil
moisture, evapotranspiration (ET) and gridded runoff (Q) estimates in a
multi-criteria calibration approach. We assess the implications of including
varying vegetation characteristics on the simulation results, with a
particular focus on the partitioning between water storage components. To
isolate the effect of vegetation, we compare a model experiment in which
vegetation parameters vary in space and time to a baseline experiment in
which all parameters are calibrated as static, globally uniform values. Both experiments show good overall performance, but explicitly including
varying vegetation data leads to even better performance and more physically
plausible parameter values. The largest improvements regarding TWS and ET are
seen in supply-limited (semi-arid) regions and in the tropics, whereas Q
simulations improve mainly in northern latitudes. While the total fluxes and
storages are similar, accounting for vegetation substantially changes the
contributions of different soil water storage components to the TWS
variations. This suggests an important role of the representation of
vegetation in hydrological models for interpreting TWS variations. Our
simulations further indicate a major effect of deeper moisture storages and
groundwater–soil moisture–vegetation interactions as a key to understanding
TWS variations. We highlight the need for further observations to identify
the adequate model structure rather than only model parameters for a
reasonable representation and interpretation of vegetation–water
interactions.
Evolution of multivariate drought hazard, vulnerability and risk in India under climate change
Authors: Sahana Venkataswamy , Mondal Arpita
Published: February 2022

Abstract. Changes in climate and socio-economic conditions pose major threat to water security, particularly in the densely-populated, agriculture-dependent and rapidly developing country of India. Therefore, for cogent mitigation and adaptation planning, it is important to assess the future evolution of drought hazard, vulnerability and risk. Earlier studies demonstrate projected drought risk over India on the basis of frequency analysis and/or hazard assessment alone. This study investigates and evaluates the change in projected drought risk combining vulnerability and hazard information at a country-wide scale for future climatic and socio-economic conditions. A multivariate standardized drought index (MSDI) accounting for concurrent deficits in precipitation and soil moisture is chosen to quantify droughts. Drought vulnerability assessment is carried out combining exposure, adaptive capacity and sensitivity indicators, using a robust multi-criteria decision-making method called the Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). In the worst-case scenario, though there is a projected decrease in the area under high or very high drought hazard classes in the country by approximately 7 %, presumably due to projected rise in precipitation, a 33 % rise in the areal extent of high or very high drought vulnerability classes is depicted. Regions of West Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, West Rajasthan and Odisha are found to be high risk under all scenarios. Bivariate choropleth analysis shows that the projected drought risk is majorly driven by change in drought vulnerability attributable to societal developments, rather than changes in drought hazard resulting from climatic conditions. The present study can aid policy makers, administrators and drought managers in developing decision support systems for efficient drought management.
Brief communication: The crucial assessment of possible significant vertical movements preceding the 28 December 1908, M=7.1, Messina Straits earthquake
Authors: Pino Nicola Alessandro
Published: February 2022

Abstract. The 28 December 1908 Messina Straits earthquake represents one of the worst seismic catastrophes in whole world history. In spite of the relatively large and various amount of data available and of the geophysical investigations accomplished in the Straits, the seismogenic structure is still elusive and intensely debated. Some models proposed for the causative fault rely considerably on the hypothesis of significant subsidence preceding the event. By driving results that differ critically from previously debated models, this assumption would have crucial repercussions on the seismic hazard assessment in the area. However, the critical analysis of this assumption in the light of the available data allows the rejection of this possibility.
Global distribution and variability of subsurface chlorophyll a concentrations
Authors: Yasunaka Sayaka , Ono Tsuneo , Sasaoka Kosei , Sato Kanako
Published: February 2022

Abstract. Chlorophyll a (Chl a) often exhibits a maximum
concentration in the subsurface layer rather that at the surface. The depth
of the Chl a maximum primarily depends on the balance between light
penetration from the surface and the nutrient supply from the deep ocean.
However, a global map of subsurface Chl a concentrations based on
observations has not been presented yet. In this study, we integrate Chl a
concentration data from recent biogeochemical floats and
historical ship-based (and other) observations and present global maps of
subsurface Chl a concentrations with related variables. The subsurface Chl a
maximum was observed globally throughout the oceans: at depths greater than
80 m in the subtropics and tropics (30∘ S to 30∘ N); in
the 40–80 m depth range in the tropics, in the Southern Ocean (south of
40∘ S), and at the midlatitudes (30–40∘ N/S) in the
North Pacific; and at depths of less than 40 m in the northern subarctic
(north of 40∘ N). The observed maxima all lie below the mixed-layer depth for the entire year in the subtropics and tropics and during
summer in the midlatitudes and the northern subarctic. The depths of the
subsurface Chl a maxima are greater than those of the photosynthetically
active layer in the subtropics but shallower in the tropics and
midlatitudes. In the subtropics, a seasonal increase in oxygen below the
mixed layer implies substantial new biological production, which corresponds
to 10 % of the net primary production in that region. During El Niño,
subsurface Chl a concentrations are higher in the middle and eastern
equatorial Pacific but lower to the west in comparison with La Niña, a
pattern which is opposite to that on the surface. The spatiotemporal
variability of the Chl a concentrations described here has implications to
not only for the biogeochemical cycling in the ocean but also for
understanding the thermal structure and dynamics of the ocean via absorption
of shortwave radiation.
Variscan structures and their control on latest to post-Variscan basin architecture: insights from the westernmost Bohemian Massif and southeastern Germany
Authors: Fazlikhani Hamed , Bauer Wolfgang , Stollhofen Harald
Published: February 2022

Abstract. The Bohemian Massif exposes structures and metamorphic rocks remnant from
the Variscan orogeny in central Europe and is bordered by the Franconian
Fault System (FFS) to the west. Across the FFS, Variscan units and
structures are buried by Permo-Mesozoic sedimentary rocks. We integrate
existing DEKORP 2D seismic reflection, well, and surface geological data with
the newly acquired FRANKEN 2D seismic survey to investigate the possible
westward continuation of Variscan tectonostratigraphic units and structures
and their influence on latest to post-Variscan basin development. Subsurface
Permo-Mesozoic stratigraphy is obtained from available wells and tied to
seismic reflection profiles using a synthetic seismogram calculated from
density and velocity logs. Below the sedimentary cover, three main basement
units are identified using seismic facies descriptions that are compared
with seismic reflection characteristics of exposed Variscan units east of
the FFS. Our results show upper Paleozoic low-grade metasedimentary
rocks and possible Variscan nappes bounded and transported by Variscan shear
zones ca. 65 km west of the FFS. Basement seismic facies in the footwall of
the Variscan shear zones are interpreted as Cadomian basement and overlaying
Paleozoic sequences. We show that the location of normal fault-bounded
latest to post-Variscan late Carboniferous–Permian basins are controlled by
the geometry of underlying Variscan shear zones. Some of these late
Carboniferous–Permian normal faults reactivated as steep reverse faults
during the regional Upper Cretaceous inversion. Our results also highlight
that reverse reactivation of normal faults gradually decreases west of the
FFS.

implications of an increasingly dynamic business environment on change management requirements in german organisations
Authors: Grocholski Elena
Published: February 2022

Under today's circumstances, conventional change management approaches, which are mostly based on stability and controllability, seem to be reaching their limits. Even the near future is quite unpredictable, the dynamics in the business environment are high and change cycles are becoming shorter. Against this background, the paper aims to define the requirements for change management in a dynamic business environment. For this purpose, an online survey with employees in Germany was conducted. 321 valid data sets of respondents from mainly hierarchical and agile organisations in various industries were obtained. The gained data was primarily evaluated quantitatively with the methods of frequency and correlation analysis to test the previously-formulated hypotheses. The results show that employees perceive that change management itself needs to evolve fundamentally to continue to have a significant impact. According to the research, successful handling of organisational change in a dynamic business environment primarily requires a high degree of transparency and open communication, an appropriate culture and mindset as well as holistic collaboration. Among other factors, high speed and flexibility in the change management approach also play an important role. In this context, experimentation and step-by-step adaptation are furthermore crucial.
Review of Legal Protection of Indonesia in Australia Tapping Case
Authors: Wijaya Hanna , Firmansyah Yohanes , Sylvana Yana , S Michelle Angelika
Published: February 2022

Several facts show that Australia has done several times wiretapping efforts against Indonesia. It is generally known that action tapping is an act of collecting information in secret diplomatic relations of a country. This journal is meant for analyzing the principle of the prohibition of wiretapping in the National Law, legal protection, and legal remedies that can be taken by Indonesia in the case of wiretapping. The research method used in this study is juriditve normative. This research analyzes relevant international treaties, case approaches, legal concept analysis approaches, and comparative approaches. The results of the study legally tapping is prohibited by law and international human rights based on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) in 1948, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) in 1966, the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (1958) and the 1961 Vienna Convention. While in the national law, the prohibition of tapping is provided in Article 28G paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution, Article 32 of law No. 39 of 1999, Article 40 of Law No. 36 of 1999, Article 31 paragraph (1) of Law No. 11 of 2008, and Article 31 paragraph (2) of Law No. 11 the Year 2008. concluded, juridically tapping is an act prohibited under international law and human rights In international law, Indonesian national law prohibits wiretapping. Indonesia has signed the Code of Conduct on Framework for Security Cooperation to prevent wiretapping. Besides, Indonesia can also bring wiretapping cases to the International Court of Justice because the Defense Signals Directorate (DSD) is the Australian government's official intelligence agency. The behavior of relations between countries and tapping as done by Australia to Indonesia appears to have shifted the meaning no longer as a crime but rather a violation of the diplomatic code of ethics.

Beyond the Fence: A Farmed Animal Rights Manifesto for Film
Authors: Finn Stephen Marcus
Published: February 2022

Film has not always been kind to farmed animals, maltreatment ranging from horrendous cruelty to anthropomorphization and training under duress. Admittedly, many fine documentaries have been made on maltreatment, but many of these tend to see farmed animals as a mass, with deindividuation leading to a psychic numbing in those watching. In contrast, narrative films on this theme generally have the farmed animal protagonists as human-like in being able to converse in the language of the people around them and generally with happily-ever-after endings, subverting the reality for most farmed animals. Writers on animal rights generally neglect film as a medium and its relationship to farmed animals. This article sets out a farmed animal rights manifesto (FARM) for film, aimed at overcoming these problems in insisting on ethical treatment in all ways.

File Compression Application Design Using Half Byte Algorithm
Authors: Hasugian Paska Marto , Rizki Manullang
Published: February 2022

The need for large data storage capacity seems increasingly important. This need is caused by the data that must be stored more and more. The storage is not allocated in one place only. But they will also store data or files elsewhere as data backups. How much storage capacity must be provided to hold all the data. Half Byte algorithm is one of the data compression algorithms. The Half Byte algorithm utilizes four left bits that are often the same sequentially especially text files. When the first four bits of the character are received in a row seven or more times, the algorithm compresses the data with marker bits, then the first character of the same four-bit series is followed by the last four-bit pair of the next series

Published: February 2022

Food management places in Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport Makassar include restaurants and restaurants, canteens, cafes, shops and so on. One of the health requirements of food management that is important and affects the quality of sanitary hygiene is sanitation facilities. While the producers pay more attention to how to produce and serve good food and do not pay too much attention to the problem of sanitation facilities. This is behind to examine the problem of sanitation facilities because sanitation facilities that do not meet health requirements will facilitate the occurrence of food contamination by microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites and chemicals that can pose a risk to health. This research aims to find out the condition of sanitation facilities where food management is located at Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport Makassar in 2012. This type of research is observational with descriptive approach methods. Population and sample of 29 food management places. Observation sheet questionnaires used to collect data.

Published: February 2022

This study aims to find out the behavior of the search for treatment with the maintenance of street children's health in the maospati region of magetan regency. The behavior of seeking treatment in street children in the maospati region of Magetan regency is in general is often done by self-medicing by buying drugs in stalls when sick. Street children in the maospati region of Magetan district check their health only if they are affected by raids, because some of them almost never check their health regularly. This behavior causes health maintenance that is done less than optimal so that there are still many children who do not know how to maintain their health properly. This type of research is quantitative using a cross sectional approach. The sample in the study was street children in the maospati region of Magetan regency aged an average of 7-16 years, with a sample of 30 respondents and using accidental sampling techniques. Data is processed using methods, univariate, bivariate and chi-square.
The search for treatment of street children who do treatment as many as 14 people (46.7%) with good health maintenance as many as 13 people (43.3%). The behavior of street children who did not do treatment as many as 16 people (53.3%) with less health maintenance as many as 17 people (56.7%). The results of the Chi Square Test analysis of treatment search behavior with the maintenance of street children's health in the maospati region of Magetan regency obtained a value of p value = 0.033 with a value of α = 0.05. Thus Ho was rejected which means there is a relationship between Treatment Search Behavior and Maintenance of Street Children's Health in Maospati Region of Magetan Regency.

Some dynamical parameters of the middle atmosphere such as quasi-biennial oscillation in the low-latitude stratospheric zonal winds, interannual variability of the high-latitude middle atmosphere and vertical motions in the tropical middle atmosphere are studied to examine their roles in determining the variability of rainfall over India during the summer monsoon season. It is believed that the amount of sulphurous gases released in the stratosphere from the great volcanic eruptions modifies in the climate (rainfall).  An attempt has also been made in this paper to present the work done so far in this direction.
Barotropic spectral modeling of non-linear interaction For transient waves in tropical easterly jet
Authors: MISHRA S. K.
Published: February 2022

The wave-zonal flow and wave-wave interactions are studied over the sphere for the initial single linear barotropic unstable mode of the mean monsoon tropical easterly jet at 100 mb. The non-divergent barotropic global spectral model with truncation N=20 and M=40 is integrated for 120 days for the study. It is found that the wave-zonal flow interaction leads to an oscillation with a period of 35 days in the wave kinetic energy and enstrophy. The relation between the zonal angular momentum transport and growth-decay cycle of the wave is explored. The wave-wave interaction is responsible for the variation in the period of low frequency oscillation between 25&35 days. The mean kinetic energy and enstrophy spectra, and wave-wave interaction in the wave number domain are computed and their role in the non-linear evolution of the waves is discussed.

Radiosonde records for 12, major Indian cities have been checked and analyzed for intraseasonal set type sonal activity in the monsoon, After forming time series with two observation per day removing bad values, and filling data gaps with linear interpolation, the time series have been plotted with and without filtering and have  been subjected to spectral analysis to reveal the nature of intraseasonal fluctuations and their interannual variability. Spectra were estimated from the time, series using the maximum entropy method (MEM) which fits an autoregresslve; (AR) model to the time series. M.EM spectra bases on tenth order AR models show that most of the variance In monsoon weather comes from intra seasonal activity with periods longer than 10 days, but do not show separate peaks at 10.20 and/or 30-50 day time scales for the majority of summers.
Poleward propagations of the ITCZ : Observations and theory
Authors: GADGIL SULOCHANA
Published: February 2022

Many features of the intra seasonal variation of the ITCZ over the Indian longitudes in the summer monsoon including poleward propagations emanating from oceanic regions and traversing both ocean and land to culminate in the seasonal trough have been simulated by a modified Version of the Webster model. The mechanism underlying the propagations in the model involves excess convective heating to the polewald side of the convergence zone relative to the equator ward zone and can operate on land or sea:  This differential arises in the model from the seasonal gradient of the  convective Instability and moisture availability and hence the Intensity factor of convective heating which is the product of the two factors. If the ratio of the convective heating to the vertical ascent In reality also depends on these two factors, the observed propagations could be generated by the same mechanism.
Observed variability in the thermal response of the upper North central Arabian Sea to the forcing of onset Vortex during summer monsoon experiments
Authors: RAO R. R.
Published: February 2022

Temperature data collected in the upper layers of the central Arabian Sea before and after the onset of the summer monsoon during the three monsoon experiments ISMEX-73 (1973), MONSOON-77 (1977) and MONEX-79 (1979) from stationary ships are made use of to document the observed variability in the upper ocean thermal structure with the onset of the monsoon. Cooling and deepening of the mixed layer and warming below the layer were found to be of unequal magnitudes under the influence of onset vortex during these three years.  Similar differences were also noticed in the profiles of vertical thermal gradient. Absence of a secondary maximum in the vertical thermal gradient during 1973 suggests a weak summer monsoonal forcing during 1972, which was viewed as a global drought year. Large differences were noticed in the changes of accumulative heat content between 1973 and 1979 which were good and bad monsoon years respectively.

Published: February 2022

Analysis of wind data of Bellary, in the Deccan Plateau region, revealed a probable out-put of 93127 cu. m water per year by a wind mill of 5 m rotor diameter. The output is maximum during June-August with 21533, 25610 and 21663 cu. m of water followed by May and September with 8593 and 9193 cu. m of water respectively. The wind can replace motor driven pumps for irrigating crops in the kharif and summer seasons and in rabi season wind milt can be used for watering orchards requiring limited quantity of water, as the output of water would be 1000 cu. m per month from November to February. She use of wind own mills for irrigation in the tail-end areas of canals and for pumping out drainage water to reduce the water table is also discussed.
Artificial Neural Networks Can Predict Early Failure of Cementless Total Hip Arthroplasty in Patients With Osteoporosis
Authors: Klemt Christian , Yeo Ingwon , Cohen-Levy Wayne Brian , Melnic Christopher M. , Habibi Yasamin , Kwon Young-Min
Published: February 2022

Background:

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) done in the aging population is associated with osteoporosis-related complications. The altered bone density in osteoporotic patients is a risk factor for revision surgery. This study aimed to develop and validate machine learning (ML) models to predict revision surgery in patients with osteoporosis after primary noncemented THA.

Methods:

We retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of 350 patients with osteoporosis (T-score less than or equal to −2.5) who underwent primary noncemented THA at a tertiary referral center. All patients had a minimum 2-year follow-up (range: 2.1 to 5.6). Four ML algorithms were developed to predict the probability of revision surgery, and these were assessed by discrimination, calibration, and decision curve analysis.

Results:

The overall incidence of revision surgery was 5.2% at a mean follow-up of 3.7 years after primary noncemented THA in osteoporotic patients. Revision THA was done because of periprosthetic fracture in nine patients (50%), aseptic loosening/subsidence in five patients (28%), periprosthetic joint infection in two patients (11%) and dislocation in two patients (11%). The strongest predictors for revision surgery in patients after primary noncemented THA were female sex, BMI (>35 kg/m2), age (>70 years), American Society of Anesthesiology score (≥3), and T-score. All four ML models demonstrated good model performance across discrimination (AUC range: 0.78 to 0.81), calibration, and decision curve analysis.

Conclusion:

The ML models presented in this study demonstrated high accuracy for the prediction of revision surgery in osteoporotic patients after primary noncemented THA. The presented ML models have the potential to be used by orthopaedic surgeons for preoperative patient counseling and optimization to improve the outcomes of primary noncemented THA in osteoporotic patients.

Müzeler turizm açısından bulundukları destinasyonların çekicilik unsurları arasında yer alırlar. Ziyaretçilerin müze deneyimlerinin kalitesi ve zenginleştirilmesi modern müzecilik anlayışında müze yönetimlerinin görevleri arasında kabul edilmektedir. Bu bağlamda, yapılan bu çalışmada müze yöneticilerinin bakış açısıyla müzelerde ziyaretçi deneyimlerinin ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışma, İzmir’de bulunan ve Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlığına bağlı olarak faaliyet gösteren dokuz müzenin yöneticilerinin katılımıyla, yarı-yapılandırılmış derinlemesine görüşme tekniği kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışmanın bulguları ışığında deneyimi bir bütün olarak ele almanın önemi vurgulanmaktadır. Buna göre ziyaretçilerin gezecekler müzeyi önceden araştırmasının fayda sağlayacağı, ziyaret esnasında ise özellikle müze yönetimlerinin ziyaretçiyi deneyime dahil edecek türden uygulamalarının, teknoloji kullanımının, aktiviteleri ve çeşitli ek hizmetler sağlamasının önem ve gerekliliğine vurgu yapılmaktadır. Ayrıca devletin mevzuatını ve müze yönetim anlayışını güncellemesi gerektiği de önerilmektedir.

Poaching is one of the major reasons for declining heterotrophic wild populations attributed to illegitimate economic gain. It causes serious threats not only to the specific population but also generates a negative impact on the entire world population of wildlife. In recent years prohibited trade for canines is going through an upward trendline, adversely impacting a number of significant species of mammals. Increasing reports of canine seizures demand forensic inspection and thorough investigation of evidence for species identification. Though examination of canine samples through morphometric technique is acceptable, it falls short when the complete sample is not recovered for analysis. Thus, molecular analysis provides error-free and reliable proof of evidence in identifying species. This report investigates two separate canine seizures using combined approaches of morphometry and DNA analysis. Seizure 1 comprised a 10 years old broken canine sample and seizure 2 contained 4 canine samples (n=4). Morphometrically, physical examination, X-ray analysis and mensuration were undertaken. For molecular analysis, the mitochondrial regions of Cytochrome b (Cytb), 12S rRNA and 16S rRNA were targeted. BLASTn search and comparison with the genetic repository at Advanced Institute for Wildlife Conservation (AIWC) clearly indicated that seizure 1 belongs to Tiger (Panthera tigris) and seizure 2 belongs to Sloth bear (Melursus ursinus). To examine wildlife forensic case samples, both morphometric and molecular databases must be strengthened to increase the conviction rate while prosecuting under the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 of India.

Published: February 2022

Las escuelas infantiles, las excedencias y las reducciones de jornada para el cuidado de niños son recursos fundamentales para la conciliación de las familias españolas. Este trabajo persigue conocer cómo condiciona el uso de los permisos parentales no remunerados la utilización de las escuelas infantiles durante los primeros tres años de vida de los hijos/as. Para ello, se utiliza la Encuesta sobre el uso de permisos parentales en España, 2012 y, a través de tres modelos de regresión logística multivariante, se analizan los factores que se relacionan con la asistencia a la escuela infantil.

¿Cómo ha evolucionado la desigualdad de oportunidades educativas en España? Controlando el sesgo de selección de los modelos de transiciones educativas
Authors: Fernández Mellizo María
Published: February 2022

En este artículo se analiza la evolución de la DOE a lo largo del siglo xx en España, incorporando más información sobre características personales y familiares de los estudiantes que en otros estudios. Esta aproximación permite controlar el posible sesgo de selección de los modelos de transiciones educativas, en los que muchos estudiantes van saliendo del análisis en las transiciones hacia niveles educativos superiores, haciendo que los resultados no sean extrapolables al conjunto de la población. Se ha utilizado una encuesta del CIS así como modelos de regresión logística. Controlando por dicho sesgo, se observa que la DOE permaneció constante, aunque también que la desigualdad disminuyó en el logro de la educación obligatoria entre las clases agrarias desde mitad de siglo, fruto posiblemente de la universalización de este nivel educativo.
Tiempo destinado a Internet por los adolescentes españoles diferencias según la práctica de deporte y el afecto recibido

Published: February 2022

Los adolescentes son los que más usan Internet y el grupo más vulnerable frente al uso desadaptativo de Internet. La promoción de estrategias dirigidas a reducir la ansiedad y la depresión, así como a incrementar la autoestima, pueden ayudar a reducir el excesivo uso de las nuevas tecnologías. Partiendo de la Encuesta sobre Uso de Drogas en Enseñanzas Secundarias en España (2016) analizamos, estimando un sistema de ecuaciones aparentemente no relacionadas, el tiempo dedicado por los adolescentes españoles a actividades online: correo y mensajes, redes sociales, juegos, apuestas y páginas con violencia/ sexo. Los resultados sugieren que fomentar la práctica de deportes y concienciar a los padres sobre los beneficios de mantener relaciones de afecto con los hijos pueden ser estrategias útiles para reducir el tiempo dedicado a las nuevas tecnologías.

Pinang Sebatang Village, Tualang District, Siak Regency comes from various different areas, where the majority of the population is the most dominant ethnic Malay. The problems that exist in this village include poor people. To overcome this, community service was carried out by means of online implementation methods and discussion and assistance. As a result, community empowerment went well and there was support from the local government in the form of budget allocations for annual activities for community empowerment. Like in 2019, IDR 97,057,000, only IDR 39,761,000 can be used. This means that there is an excess of budget use of IDR 57,296,000 from the total village budget of IDR 2,418,213,189. With this amount, it is still not able to solve various problems that exist in society. The remaining surplus from the previous year's budget was Rp 69,403,223 and the remaining excess of the current year's use was Rp 303,971,406. So the village / village spending in 2019 will be IDR 2,021,145,005. This empowerment activity needs to be continuously improved by involving the private sector.
