Abstract. The recent development of low-cost optical particle counters (OPCs) presents new opportunities for improving spatial coverage of particle concentration in the atmosphere as they are more affordable, compact, and consume less power than traditional OPCs. In particular, these OPCs could improve our ability to quantify dust emissions in complex environments during aeolian soil erosion. The high frequency sampling capacity (1 Hz) of some sensors may make them suitable for estimating dust emissions using the eddy-covariance method. Here, the capability of the low-cost OPC-N3 from Alfasense to estimate the size-resolved dust flux using the eddy-covariance method is evaluated. During the Jordan Wind Erosion and Dust Investigation (J-WADI) experiment, we tested one OPC-N3 against traditional reference OPCs. The OPCs were located in close proximity to a sonic anemometer, enabling the correlation of dust concentration and vertical velocity fluctuations for estimating dust fluxes. Despite the high temperature and dusty wind conditions of the campaign, the N3 monitored the dynamics and magnitude of dust concentration with reasonable precision. The turbulence characteristics of the dust concentration fluctuations measured by the N3 were similar to those from the reference OPC. After calibrating the N3 dust concentration, the N3 accurately estimated the dust emission flux, with differences of less than 30 % compared to the reference OPC. Our results confirm the potential of low-cost OPCs for dust-erosion research. Nonetheless, further evaluation of low-cost OPCs is still needed across different environments and weather conditions.
Econometric Modelling for Estimating Direct Flood Damage to Firms: A Local-Scale Approach Using Post-Event Records in Italy

Published: November 2024

Abstract. Managing flood risk is crucial for achieving global sustainability. Particularly, flood damage to firms' assets imposes significant financial stress, necessitating efforts to minimize future consequences. However, current tools and knowledge for estimating flood damage to firms are inadequate, primarily due to a lack of high-quality damage data and the diversity of enterprise characteristics, complicating generalization. This study aims to improve understanding micro- local scale flood damage to firms in Italy through the analysis of empirical data, focusing specifically on direct damage. The dataset comprises 812 observed damage records collected after five flood events. Damage is categorized into building structure, stock, and equipment. The analysis reveals relationships between damage, economic sector, and water depth. Results indicate that damage increases at a rate less than proportional to the firm surface area and with water depth significantly explaining only stock damage. The quantification of the damage across different sectors highlights, healthcare, commercial, and manufacturing categories as the most vulnerable for building structure, stock, and equipment damage, respectively. The derived damage model offers better predictive accuracy than foreign models in the Italian context. These findings aid in developing effective, tailored risk mitigation strategies and provide valuable insights for future research and policy aimed at reducing flood impacts on firm in Italy.
Cross-scale causal information flow from the El Niño–Southern Oscillation to precipitation in eastern China
Authors: Latif Yasir , Fan Kaiyu , Wang Geli , Paluš Milan
Published: November 2024

Abstract. The El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a dominant mode of climate variability influencing temperature and precipitation in distant parts of the world. Traditionally, the ENSO influence is assessed considering its amplitude. Focusing on its quasi-oscillatory dynamics comprising multiple timescales, we analyze the causal influence of phases of ENSO oscillatory components on scales of precipitation variability in eastern China, using information-theoretic generalization of Granger causality. We uncover the causal influence of the ENSO quasi-biennial component on the precipitation variability on and around the annual scale, while the amplitude of the precipitation quasi-biennial component is influenced by the low-frequency ENSO components with periods of around 6 years. This cross-scale causal information flow is important mainly in the Yellow River basin (YWRB), while in the Yangtze River basin (YZRB) the causal effect of the ENSO amplitude is dominant. The presented results suggest that, in different regions, different aspects of ENSO dynamics should be employed for prediction of precipitation.
Vernächlässigtes Verfassungsrecht

AUS DEM VORWORT »›Die moderne Demokratie unterscheidet sich von ihren antiken Vorläufern wesentlich dadurch, dass sie ein mit Mitteln des modernen Rechts verfasstes politisches Gemeinwesen darstellt …‹. Zentrales Mittel des ›modernen Rechts‹ für diese physische Verfassung unserer ›politischen Gemeinwesen‹, zumal der souveränen Staaten, jedenfalls des europäischen Kontinents, ist wiederum, in nicht zufälligem semantischen Gleichklang, die – heute in aller Regel geschriebene – Verfassung im Rechtssinne. Diesen Auftrag, das ›politische Gemeinwesen‹ in physischer Hinsicht zu verfassen, dh ihm Struktur und Kontur zu verleihen, Regeln und Grenzen zu setzen, vermag eine Verfassung im Rechtssinne allerdings nur in dem Maße zu erfüllen, als diese - kognitiv erkannt und - volitiv anerkannt wird. An beiden Voraussetzungen scheint es jedoch in der ›demokratischen Republik‹ Österreich nicht erst rezent zu mangeln, wie die in diesem Band parte pro toto zusammengefügten drei Studien, aus ganz unterschiedlichen Rechtsgebieten und Erste wie Zweite Republik betreffend, belegen. Ausgehend von diesem durchaus Besorgnis erregenden Befund ist es das Ziel dieser Publikation, zu motivieren, die eigene aktuelle österreichische Verfassung künftig sehr wohl radikal ernst zu nehmen, gerade auch angesichts der ernsteren Zukunftsperspektiven unseres ›politischen Gemeinwesens‹, wo der guten Verfassung mehr Bedeutung zukommen dürfte als in den vergangenen Schönwetter-Perioden.«
Die Richtlinie über Verbandsklagen zum Schutz der Kollektivinteressen der Verbraucher
Authors: Dangl Matthias
Published: November 2024

Massenschäden sind in Zeiten der Serienproduktion, des Massenverkehrs und standardisierter Anlageformen keine Seltenheit. Zahlreiche Mitgliedstaaten der Europäischen Union suchten in den letzten rund 20 Jahren nach geeigneten prozessualen Mechanismen für Fälle mit hunderten oder gar tausenden Anspruchsinhabern. Auch der europäische Gesetzgeber verharrte nicht in Untätigkeit. Durch die am 25.11.2020 verabschiedete Richtlinie 2020/1828 über Verbandsklagen zum Schutz der Kollektivinteressen der Verbraucher erfuhr der kollektive Rechtsschutz auf europäischer Ebene eine grundlegende Reform. Verbandsklagen sollen nunmehr nicht bloß auf Unterlassung, sondern auch auf Abhilfe gerichtet sein können. Bei der Umsetzung der Richtlinie wurde den Mitgliedstaaten – im Gegensatz zu vielen anderen EU-Rechtsakten – ein vergleichsweise großer Gestaltungsspielraum überlassen. Die vorliegende Arbeit analysiert die Vorgaben der Richtlinie umfassend und untersucht verschiedene Optionen zu ihrer Umsetzung in das österreichische Recht.

Published: November 2024

Kehadiran manusia era digital telah menciptakan satu langkah baru dalam keberlangsungan panggilan eksistensial manusia yang selalu berjalan dan mengalami perubahan. Media sosial sebagai media artifisial manusia digital menanggapi hal itu dengan memberikan kontribusi secara penuh lewat sarana informasi dan komunikasi yang tersedia. Hal itu berseberangan dengan lemahnya penerapan literasi digital dalam pendidikan manusia. Penempatan manusia dalam dunia digital itu sendiri tidak serta-merta  menerapkan cara berpikir dan tinjauan praktis pada masyarakat pra era digital. Manusia terjebak dalam cara berpikir teknis dan bukan kritis dan konstruktif. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif. Sebab itu, penelitian ini bertujuan membahas tantangan literasi digital dalam kehidupan era digitalisasi dan kajian tentang penerapan literasi digital dalam pendidikan manusia era digital. Hasil penulisan menunjukkan bahwa terdapat empat pilar literasi digital yang penting untuk mengenalkan dan memberikan pemahaman mengenai perangkat teknologi informasi dan komunikasi, yang mencakup digital skills, digital culture, digital ethics, dan digital safety.
Tra parole proibite e storia della cultura: Diritto e civiltà in Grecia antica.
Authors: Taddei Andrea
Published: November 2024

In questo lavoro l’analisi si muove su un doppio livello. Da una parte, viene isolata una questione specifica del diritto ateniese di età classica, vale a dire il riferimento agli ἀπόρρητα nell’orazione Contro Teomnesto di Lisia; dall’altra, viene affrontata una questione storico-culturale sulla base di alcune parti di una conferenza di Louis Gernet presso l’Institut de droit romain di Parigi, il testo della quale è conservato nelle Archives Louis Gernet. Ne risulta un percorso che isola alcuni aspetti storico-antropologici all’interno di una questione di carattere tecnico e illustra bene l’avvenuto passaggio, nel metodo praticato da Gernet, dalla sociologia giuridica ad una antropologia storica del diritto greco antico.

Published: November 2024

The Penyagolosa Massif (Castelló, Valencian Community), which includes the Penyagolosa Natural Park, is one of the most emblematic natural landscapes of the eastern Iberian Peninsula. It hosts a wide variety of Mediterranean habitats, including groves of several Quercus species and extensive Pinus spp. forests. The present checklist represents the first compilation of lichenized and lichenicolous fungi for the protected as well as nearby areas and is mostly based on species records available at the Biodiversity Data Bank of the Generalitat Valenciana (BDBCV). We report 221 and 12 infrageneric taxa of lichenized and lichenicolous fungi, respectively. Punctelia caseana is reported for the first time for the European continent. Six lichenicolous fungi are newly reported for the Valencian Community. The study area includes the red-listed lichen Xanthoparmelia camtschadalis. The families Parmeliaceae and Teloschistaceae showed the highest species richness. By evaluating the functional traits, we found that the most diverse lichens are those showing (1) crustose thalli, (2) with a sexual reproduction, mainly through the formation of apothecia, and (3) that are associated with trebouxioid green microalgae. Furthermore, the most frequent lichen community in the study area is formed by xerophytic lichens that can tolerate very high direct solar irradiation and develop under weak eutrophication conditions. Finally, we emphasize the need to accelerate the compilation of the diversity of lichenized and lichenicolous fungi in the park through DNA sequencing and molecular phylogenetics, which will also allow revealing the diversity of associated lichen photobionts and fungal-algal interaction patterns.
First demographic assessment of the recently discovered subpopulation of the narrow endemic Femeniasia balearica from the Balearic Islands (Western Mediterranean)
Authors: Rodríguez Miquel , Cursach Joana
Published: November 2024

Demographic data on threatened species is crucial to understand their conservation status and make management decisions when necessary, which is especially relevant for narrow endemic species with isolated populations. This is the case of Femeniasia balearica (J.J. Rodr.) Susanna, a narrow endemic cushion-like shrub that grows in coastal areas of northern Menorca (Balearic Islands, western Mediterranean Basin) and catalogued as Vulnerable according to the IUCN categories. Recently, a new population has been located in the center of the Serra de Tramuntana of Mallorca (Balearic Islands). In this study, the demographic status of the population from Mallorca has been studied, geolocating all of the individuals with a differential GPS to obtain a detailed map. Data on stage of development (seedling, vegetative or reproductive), morphometry and the overall status of all the individuals have been compiled. A total of 116 individuals and 96 seedlings have been counted. The fact that most of the individuals are reproductive (86.70%) and the confirmation of the presence of seedlings suggest that the population may be maintained in the future. This study provides valuable data on the demographic status of the new population of the species, but long-term monitoring is necessary for analyzing demographic trends.

This study is designed to find out the effect of family long-term goals on family firms’ performance in the underdeveloped region of Pakistan. The study addressed two research questions: how does family participation in management affect the performance of family firms? Does there exist moderation between family long-term goals and family participation in management and the effect on the performance of the family firms? Data was collected from 137 very small and small family firms of the southern Punjab (Pakistan). We used partial least square regression to determine the moderating role of family longevity goal in firm performance. Results showed that there was no significant direct impact of family participation in management on firm performance. However, the effect of family longevity goals was significant and positive (0.20) on family firm’s performance. Relationship between performance of family firms and family participation in management (0.17) depends on family longevity goals implying that family firms can contribute better in business performance.

Etika Bisnis Islam Al-Shāh Waliyullāh al-Dahlawī
Authors: Waluya Atep Hendang
Published: November 2024

Islamic teachings consist of aqidah, ibadah, muamalah and morals. Ethics or morals in Islam are part of maqāsid al-sharī‘ah. Al-Dahlawī was one of the mujaddids of Islam at the end of the time of the Mongol Emperor Al-Muẓaffir who contributed ideas related to Islamic socio-economics which was termed irtifaqāt. In Hujjat Allāh al-Bālighah, apart from talking about irtifaqāt, al-Dahlawī also talks about the ethics of achieving life which is the main basis before the second irtifaqāt. According to al-Dahlawī, ethics in business is needed so that there is healthy competition and no party is disadvantaged in obtaining wealth. The Islamic business ethics are to keep business away from gambling, usury, tadlīs, gharar, to keep business away from buying and selling which is haram, reducing and leading to immorality, not reducing measures and scales, not committing talaqqī al-rukbān, ihtikār, and perjury.

Background: Placenta previa owing to abnormal location in lower uterine segment has serious maternal and fetal consequences.Objectives: To review the placenta weight birth weight ratio (PWBW ratio) and determine an association between PWBW ratio and gestational age in patients with placenta previa.Materials and Methods: The Descriptive Cross sectional study took place in Gynae A unit, Medical Teaching Institute, Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, Pakistan, from 01-03- 2018 to 29-02- 2020.Patients with genital tract bleeding were admitted through out patient department and Emergency after 28 weeks of gestation. Diagnosis of placenta previa was confirmed and were included in study after taking consent.Results: Total of 173 patients with placenta previa were admitted in gynae A. Patients with major placenta previa were 151 (87.2%) while 22 (12.7%) patients had minor placenta previa. Birth weight placental weight ratio was calculated by measuring weight of placenta and baby after the delivery. Most of the patients, 92 (53.2%) had PWBW ratio less than 1:6 (relatively large placenta), patients with BWPW ratio of 1:6 (normal ratio) were 14 (8.1%) and 67 (38.7%) patients had PWBW ratio of 1:6 (relatively smaller placenta).Conclusion: Patients with placenta previa have relatively larger placenta (PWBW ratio less than 1:6) to compensate for lesser vasculature of lower uterine segment. Patients with larger placenta are prone to necrosis and abruption. Vigilant antenatal care is needed in these patients due to higher incidence of antepartum and postpartum hemorrhage, as well as invasive propensity of lager placenta.Keywords: Placenta Previa, Placental weight birth weight ratio, Placental efficiency

Background: Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant which also has anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. But it has not been applied as a local delivery drug in patients with periodontitis. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of 1 % amitriptyline gel with conventional 1% chlorhexidine gel as a local drug delivery, adjunctive to scaling and root planning in patients with periodontitis. Materials and Methods: This randomized clinical control trial was done in Department of Pharmacology, University of Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan and HEJ research institute of Chemistry, University of Karachi, from 1st December 2022 to 31st July 2023. A total of 30 patients both male and female were equally divided into 3 groups. Control group: received only scaling and root planning (SRP). Study group 1: treated with SRP followed by the application of 1% chlorhexidine (CHX) gel. Study group 2: treated with SRP followed by the application of 1% amitriptyline gel. Clinical parameters including pocket depth (PD), clinical attachment level (CAL), bleeding on probing (BOP), tooth mobility (TM), plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), as well as biochemical parameters, tumor necrosis factor- alpha (TNF-á) levels, were evaluated using ELISA kit. Statistical analysis was done by One way ANOVA followed by Tuckey's HSD for comparisons among groups.Results: Reduction in PD, CAL, BOP, PI, GI and TNF-á was observed by both amitriptyline and CHX gel groups as compared to control group (p<0.001) But reduction in PD (p<0.001), CAL (p<0.001) and TM (p<0.05) was greater in amitriptyline group as compared to CHX group. Conclusion: Unconventional 1% amitriptyline gel is more effective in reducing the clinical and inflammatory biomarkers as compared to conventional 1% CHX gel in treating the periodontal disease via local drug delivery method (LDD).Keywords: Amitriptyline, Chlorhexidine, Local drug delivery, Periodontitis

Background: In our environment, an array of substances that harm human health are found. Carbon monoxide (CO) is one of them. In northern areas of Pakistan, during winter season different patterns of poisoning have been noticed at the casualty department of a tertiary care hospital.Objective: To document the pattern of incidence, principal sources, seasonal variation, gender effect, and the consequences of acute CO poisoning.Materials and Method: This retrospective observational study was done in the casualty department of Ayub Teaching Hospital, Abbottabad. Data was obtained from January 1st, 2023, to December 31st. 2023, comprising 90 cases after getting approval from the review board and concerned department. Descriptive statistics and a chi-square test were used to analyze the data via SPSS 22. A P-value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: Among 90 cases, 33.3% suffered from CO, and 36.7% took organophosphorus compounds. 26.7% were gathered in miscellaneous groups. Out of a total of 33.3% of cases of CO poisoning, 53.33% were male and 46.66% were female. The most significant frequency occurred in winter. 83.33% suffered from room heaters, 16% because of instant geysers, and 0.67% from coal burning. All cases were accidental. 91% of the patients survived after initial treatment. While 9% died due to late arrival at the hospital.Conclusion: The effects of carbon monoxide on the body ranged from moderate vertigo to respiratory arrest and death, depending on the concentration of gas in the blood. Of the instances that were reported, the second most common cause of poisoning was carbon monoxide; the males were 16 and the females were 14 out of 30 cases. The majority of reported cases of CO poisoning were accidental and could be readily avoided by raising public awareness. These incidences peaked throughout the winter.
