In order to make good decisions in the company, executives must know the reality of their company and the needs that each area has, as this allows them to adequately plan their budget and allocate sufficient economic resources for the performance of their functions. The main objective was to determine the relationship between economic management and liquidity of a company listed on the LSE from 2017 to 2021. In addition, it was considered to use a basic quantitative approach, with a descriptive correlative level, with a longitudinal design, with the population and sample composed of the company's consolidated financial data in the 2017-2021 study. The findings revealed that inventory turnover achieved a p-value of less than 0.05 with the three liquidity dimensions; additionally, a Pearson of 0.883 was obtained with working capital. This allows us to conclude that if an organization is able to maximize its value through proper planning that takes into account the real needs of the organization and moves towards recognizing the economic risks that can cause liquidity problems, then efficiency in business management is achieved.

Amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids in the tropical oligotrophic Atlantic Ocean: sea-to-air transfer and atmospheric in situ formation
Authors: van Pinxteren Manuela , Zeppenfeld Sebastian , Fomba Khanneh Wadinga , Triesch Nadja , Frka Sanja , Herrmann Hartmut
Published: June 2023

Abstract. This study examines carbohydrates, amino acids, and lipids as important contributors to organic carbon (OC) in the tropical Atlantic Ocean at the Cape Verde Atmospheric Observatory (CVAO). The above compounds were measured
in both surface seawater and in ambient sub-micron aerosol particles to investigate their sea-to-air transfer, including their enrichment in the sea
surface microlayer (SML), potential atmospheric in situ formation or
degradation, and their oceanic contribution to the ambient marine aerosol
particles. In bulk seawater and the SML, similar distributions among species were found
for the lipids and carbohydrates with moderate SML enrichments (enrichment
factors EFSML = 1.3 ± 0.2 and 1.1 ± 0.5 respectively). In contrast, the amino acids exhibited a higher enrichment in the SML with an
average EFSML of 2.3 ± 0.4, although they are less surface-active than lipids. The same compounds studied in the seawater were found on the
ambient sub-micron aerosol particles, whereas the lipids' enrichment was more pronounced (EFaer.=1.6×105) compared to the amino acids and carbohydrates (EFaer.=1.5×103 and 1.3×103 respectively), likely due to their high surface activity and/or the
lipophilic character. Detailed molecular analysis of the seawater and
aerosol particles revealed changes in the relative abundance of the
individual organic compounds. They were most pronounced for the amino acids
and are likely related to an in situ atmospheric processing by biotic and/or
abiotic reactions. On average, 49 % of the OC on the aerosol particles (=∧97 ng m−3) could be attributed to the specific components or component groups investigated in this study. The majority (43 %) was
composed of lipids. Carbohydrates and amino acids made up less than 1 % of
the OC. This shows that carbohydrates, at least when resolved via molecular
measurements of single sugars, do not comprise a very large fraction of OC
on marine aerosol particles, in contrast to other studies. However,
carbohydrate-like compounds are also present in the high lipid fraction
(e.g. as glycolipids), but their chemical composition could not be revealed by the measurements performed here. Previously determined OC components at the CVAO, specifically amines, oxalic
acid, and carbonyls, comprised an OC fraction of around 6 %. Since the identified compounds constituted about 50 % of the OC and belong
to the rather short-lived biogenic material probably originating from the
surface ocean, a pronounced coupling between ocean and atmosphere was
indicated for this oligotrophic region. The remaining, non-identified OC
fraction might in part contain recalcitrant OC; however, this fraction does not constitute the vast majority of OC in the aerosol particles
investigated here.

Abstract. Across tropical ecosystems, global environmental change is causing drier climatic conditions and increased nutrient deposition. Such changes represent large uncertainties due to unknown interactions between drought and nutrient availability in controlling ecosystem net primary
productivity (NPP). Using a large-scale manipulative experiment, we studied for 4 years whether nutrient availability affects the individual and integrated responses of aboveground and belowground ecosystem processes to throughfall exclusion in 30-year-old mixed plantations of tropical dry forest tree species in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. We used a factorial design with four treatments: control, fertilization (F), drought (D), and
drought + fertilization (D + F). While we found that a 13 %–15 % reduction in soil moisture only led to weak effects in the studied
ecosystem processes, NPP increased as a function of F and D + F. The relative contribution of each biomass flux to NPP varied depending on the
treatment, with woody biomass being more important for F and root biomass for D + F and D. Moreover, the F treatment showed modest increases in
maximum canopy cover. Plant functional type (i.e., N fixation or deciduousness) and not the experimental manipulations was the main source of variation in tree growth. Belowground processes also responded to experimental treatments, as we found a decrease in nodulation for F plots and an
increase in microbial carbon use efficiency for F and D plots. Our results emphasize that nutrient availability, more so than modest reductions in
soil moisture, limits ecosystem processes in tropical dry forests and that soil fertility interactions with other aspects of drought intensity
(e.g., vapor pressure deficit) are yet to be explored.
Using integrated hydrological-hydraulic modelling and global data sources to analyse the February 2023 floods in the Umbeluzi catchment (Mozambique)
Authors: Cea Luis , Álvarez Manuel , Puertas Jerónimo
Published: June 2023

Abstract. On 9–13 February 2023 an intense flood event took place in the province of Maputo (Mozambique), resulting in severe damage to agricultural lands and transport infrastructure, and with serious consequences for the population. In the district of Boane, located a few kilometres downstream of the Pequenos Libombos dam, the flood destroyed many food crops as well as two bridges linking the district to Maputo, thus affecting the food security of the population. These events are quite frequent in this region, making necessary the delineation of improved flood hazard maps and the development of new flood risk management plans. We reproduce this flood event with a high resolution integrated hydrologic-hydraulic model fed with freely available global data sources, using a methodology that can be easily reproduced in other data-scarce regions. The model results are validated with observed estimations of the inflow to the Pequenos Libombos reservoir, with water marks left by the flood in the district of Boane, and with a Sentinel-1 image taken during the recession of the flood. We analyse the effect of the Pequenos Libombos reservoir on the flood hazard, which was subject to debate amongst the affected population and in the media. The results obtained show that integrated hydrologic-hydraulic models based on the two-dimensional shallow water equations, combined with global databases, are currently able to reliably reproduce extreme flood events in data-scarce basins, and are therefore very useful tools for the development of flood management plans in these regions.
Assessing land elevation in the Ayeyarwady Delta (Myanmar) and its relevance for studying sea level rise and delta flooding
Authors: Seeger Katharina , Minderhoud Philip S. J. , Peffeköver Andreas , Vogel Anissa , Brückner Helmut , Kraas Frauke ,   Nay Win Oo, Brill Dominik
Published: June 2023

Abstract. With their low lying, flat topography, river deltas and
coastal plains are extremely prone to relative sea level rise and other
water-related hazards. This calls for accurate elevation data for flood risk
assessments, especially in the densely populated Southeast Asian deltas.
However, in data-poor countries such as Myanmar, where high accuracy
elevation data are not accessible, often only global satellite-based digital
elevation models (DEMs), suffering from low vertical accuracy and remote
sensing artefacts, can be used by the public and scientific community. As
the lack of accurate elevation data hampers the assessment of flood risk,
studying available information on land elevation and its reliability is
essential, particularly in the context of sea level rise impact. Here, we
assess the performance of 10 global DEMs in the Ayeyarwady Delta (Myanmar)
against the new, local, so-called AD-DEM, which was generated based on
topographical map elevation data. To enable comparison, all DEMs were
converted to a common vertical datum tied to local sea level. While both CoastalDEM v2.1 (Kulp and Strauss, 2021) and FABDEM (Hawker et al., 2022) perform comparably well, showing the highest
correspondence in comparison with AD-DEM and low-elevation spot heights,
FABDEM outperforms CoastalDEM v2.1 by the absence of remote sensing
artefacts. The AD-DEM provides a high-accuracy, open and freely available, and
independent elevation dataset suitable for evaluating land elevation data in
the Ayeyarwady Delta and studying topography and flood risk at large scale,
while small-scale investigations may benefit from a FABDEM locally improved
with data from the AD-DEM. Based on the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) projections of sea level rise, the consequences of DEM
selection for assessing the impact of sea level rise in the Ayeyarwady Delta
are shown. We highlight the need for addressing particularly low-lying
populated areas within the most seaward districts with risk mitigation and
adaptation strategies while also the more inland delta population should be made
aware of facing a higher risk of flooding due to relative sea level rise in
the next ∼ 100 years.
Exploring meteorological droughts' spatial patterns across Europe through complex network theory
Authors: Giaquinto Domenico , Marzocchi Warner , Kurths Jürgen
Published: June 2023

Abstract. In this paper we investigate the spatial patterns and features of meteorological droughts in Europe using concepts and methods derived from complex
network theory. Using event synchronization analysis, we uncover robust meteorological drought continental networks based on the co-occurrence of
these events at different locations within a season from 1981 to 2020 and compare the results for four accumulation periods of rainfall. Each
continental network is then further examined to unveil regional clusters which are characterized in terms of droughts' geographical propagation and
source–sink systems. While introducing new methodologies in general climate network reconstruction from raw data, our approach brings out key
aspects concerning drought spatial dynamics, which could potentially support droughts' forecast.
Increased power gains from wake steering control using preview wind direction information
Authors: Sengers Balthazar Arnoldus Maria , Rott Andreas , Simley Eric , Sinner Michael , Steinfeld Gerald , Kühn Martin
Published: June 2023

Abstract. Yaw controllers typically rely on measurements taken at the wind turbine, resulting in a slow reaction to wind direction changes and subsequent power losses due to misalignments. Delayed yaw action is especially problematic in wake steering operation, because it can result in power losses when the yaw misalignment angle deviates from the intended one due a changing wind direction. This study explores the use of preview wind direction information for wake steering control in a two-turbine setup with a wind speed in the partial load range. For these conditions and a simple yaw controller, results from an engineering model identify an optimum preview time of 90 s. These results are validated by forcing wind direction changes in a large-eddy simulation model. For a set of six simulations with large wind direction changes, the average power gain from wake steering increases from only 0.44 % to 1.32 %. For a second set of six simulations with smaller wind direction changes, the average power gain from wake steering increases from 1.24 % to 1.85 %. Low-frequency fluctuations are shown to have a larger impact on the performance of wake steering, and the effectiveness of preview control in particular, than high-frequency fluctuations. From these results it is concluded that wake steering can benefit from preview wind direction control, especially when the wind direction change is rapid.

Published: June 2023

Green fodder plants have an important place in animal nutrition in terms of meeting the nutritional needs of animals and increasing their appetite. Especially in dairy cattle breeding, green feeds are needed for milk yield and quality. In meeting the green feed needs of ruminant animals, the scarcity of agricultural areas, water use, environmental and climatic factors have negative effects on agricultural production. The tendency to soilless agriculture is increasing due to the lack of transportation of green feeds, which cannot be sustained in production throughout the year, and the high prices of green feed. For this purpose, it is thought that the elimination of the negative conditions related to the environment and soil will be occurred by hydroponic production, the continuity of green feed production can be ensured throughout the year and feed costs can be reduced. However, the digestibility and feed efficiency of the products to be obtained by green feed production with the hydroponic system will be increased. Meat, milk yield and quality, animal performance and health will, also, be positively affected by the increase in feed utilization.This review was aimed to give information about the use of cereals with a high germination rate grown by hydroponic systems as green feed in animal nutrition and their disadvantages.

Kalanchoe pinnata (Lam.) has several pharmacological properties like as anti-diabetic, anticancer, antimicrobial, insecticidal, anti-urolithiatic etc. The plant leaves of k. pinnata are used traditionally as ethno medicine. Many diseases are associated with the oxidative stress caused by free radicals. The species kalanchoe laciniata and bryophyllum pinnatum are native from Madagascar and Brazil. Both belong to the Crassulaceae family and it is widely used by population as a natural anti-inflammatory agent. These both species have similar leaf morphology and they are known by the same popular name as “saiao” or “coirama” due to this reason. Many studies have been published involving preparation and parts of these species.
Fiscal Regime in Petroleum Licensed Contracts
Authors: Mohammed Hashim J.
Published: June 2023

Fiscal regimes in petroleum licensed contracts are defined as the tools through which the return on oil wealth fellow into the state treasury, it includes several forms according to the type of contract, so, the most common fiscal tools are: royalty, taxes, profit oil or rents.
This work makes  a comparison between the fiscal regimes in common types of petroleum investment agreements and the difference between them according to the state share and contractor share.
 The main types of these regimes are concessionary and contractual agreements and the last include two types: production sharing and service agreements. However, Algerian, Syrian, Iranian & Iraq will be examined as example for each type respectively,
The study relies on a comparison between the items of the fiscal regime and the tools through which resource revenues flow to the public treasury as well as the share of the contractor or the company that holds the concession.
Therefore, a model of fiscal regimes has been conducted for the above contracts to show the difference between the fiscal flows of each country according to the type of contract and the fiscal tools in it as royalty, taxes and others.
The study demonstrated that the contracts vary in revenue ratios depending on the sale price of oil and the cost of extraction.
Finally, we can clearly infer that the share of both the company and the state is affected by the above circumstances in a high or slight sensitivity, There is no particular type can be considered the best, as preference depends on the special circumstances of countries, for example, the Iraqi situation is difficult to use concession contracts for several considerations, including constitutional, where the Constitution of the Republic of Iraq specified the ownership of the people's oil wealth and this property cannot be relinquished to the investing companies and so on the rest of the countries, but it can be hybridized between some systems to obtain financial instruments that achieve the best choice for the parties (state and IOCs).

Published: June 2023

The sexual drive of men towards children and prepubescents is a public health problem. Thus, this paper aims to discuss the psychological care aimed at men, with deviant sexual wish from a pedophilic disorder, to expand their knowledge in relation to psychological practice in the mediation of subjective components in the practice of empathic clinical care. The method used in this research assumes the qualitative character of a literature review. The complexity of the pedophilic disorder to clinical intervention, associated with social stigma and ignorance, makes clinical treatment difficult for some psychology and health professionals. Psychotherapeutic treatment should be associated with psychiatric/drug treatment, whenever necessary. The psychological reception is a very important factor for creating the bond and dialogic process for conducting psychotherapy. In this way, the client can reflect on their desires, actions and develop more satisfying ways of relating without directed violence or intense psychological suffering.

Discussions about different anesthetic techniques designed for wild rodents, particularly neotropical species, are scarce in the literature. However, chemical restraint is required for management and medical procedures in these animals, due to their susceptibility to stress and their behavioral characteristics. This research evaluated quality and duration of chemical restraint of pacas (Cuniculus paca) using low doses of ketamine in association with xylazine (Group 1), xylazine and midazolam (Group 2), butorphanol and midazolam (Group 3), and azaperone and midazolam (Group 4). All doses were calculated by interspecific allometric scaling. In Group 1, recovery was disturbed and the moment of incapacity of manipulation occurred early. In Groups 2, 3 and 4, the duration of chemical restraint was higher. The best chemical restraint quality occurred in Group 2 (ketamine, xylazine and midazolam). Midazolam provided an extremely calm recovery, and afforded animals’ manipulation for prolonged time, even and after return of normal ambulation.

The aim of this study is to employ scientific research and a case study to acquire qualitative data and assess the impact of interpersonal relationships in the work environment. These associations have been so influential and wide-ranging that previously disassociated concepts have come to occupy a prominent place for the proper functioning of companies. In the past, the humanization of interpersonal relationships and ethical issues in the work environment were not considered by corporations, however, currently, there is a social demand that makes these principles an integral part of the image that the company wants to convey in relation to its services and products, investing in valuing its workforce, making the corporate environment healthier and more productive.
