Authors: Swamy DS Veerabhadra
Published: May 2022

In the wake of National Health Reforms, the nation is focusing its efforts on improving quality and ef ciency within the health care system. With this scenario, complications associated with comorbidities are also burden to the system. Therefore, achieving the goals to improve quality and ef ciency will require speci cally focusing on subgroups that are at risk, because of high cost and poor quality of care. This study was designed to estimate the incidence of medical comorbidity among the diagnosed psychiatric IP / OP and to associate psychiatric illness with selected demographic variables. In the study, a descriptive cross-sectional research design was used to collect data from 200 psychiatric patients using medical and psychiatric illness comorbidity checklist and baseline proforma. The study ndings revealed that 80.5 percent of the psychiatric illness patients have at least one or more medical comorbidities and there is an association between demographic variables such as age and medical comorbidity cardiovascular system (p<0.05)

The vast majority of individuals having apportion card to purchase the material from the proportion shops. To purchase material they need to present their apportion card and distributer will place the sign in the proportion card contingent upon the material. Then, at that point, they will give the material through weighting framework with assistance of human. Weight of the material might be wrong because of human slip-ups. In the event that material not buy the materials toward the month's end, they will deal to others with no insinuation to the public authority and clients. We have proposed a programmed proportion materials appropriation in view of finger impression and face acknowledgment strategies.

Promoting Family-Centered Care: A Provider Training Effectiveness Study
Authors: Gafni-Lachter Liat , Ben-Sasson Ayelet
Published: May 2022

Importance: Although family-centered care (FCC) is a best practice in pediatrics, health care providers report challenges in translating FCC from theory to practice.

Objective: To measure the effectiveness of the Better Together (BT) training to enhance providers’ changes in FCC practice and self-efficacy.

Design: Pretest–posttest quasi-experimental design.

Setting: Continuing education centers in Israel.

Participants: Eighty-two participants—occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, physical therapists, and art therapists—working in outpatient or school-based pediatric practices.

Intervention: We developed BT on the basis of adult learning theory to prepare providers to implement best practices in FCC. The training was delivered as six consecutive in-person workshops (30-hr total over 10 wk).

Outcomes and Measures: We used the Measure of Processes of Care (MPOC) Service Provider and Confidence versions to measure providers’ perceptions of how they used specific aspects of FCC in their practice and their related self-efficacy.

Results: Observed changes included improved reports of FCC implementation and increased self-efficacy in all MPOC domains, with medium effect sizes. These outcomes were positively interrelated. Before the training, providers in outpatient settings who had more years of experience reported higher FCC use than less experienced participants in other settings; these differences disappeared by the end of the training.

Conclusions and Relevance: BT training can enhance health care providers’ perceptions of FCC implementation and self-efficacy and minimize differences in FCC implementation by providers across expertise levels and practice settings. This study can inform the development of future FCC training interventions for providers, managers, educators, and researchers.

What This Article Adds: Intensive training can improve both the way practitioners work with families and their self-efficacy in doing so. This study highlights the importance of self-efficacy in promoting knowledge translation.
Análise epidemiológica da mortalidade neonatal tardia no Brasil entre 2010 e 2019
Authors: Ferreira Isadora Caixeta da Silveira , Ferreira-Nunes Ricardo
Published: May 2022

Introdução: A morte neonatal tardia é aquela que ocorre entre o 8° e o 28° dia de vida. Seu monitoramento revela a eficácia de políticas públicas de saúde, sobretudo para o público materno-infantil. Apesar do Brasil ter reduzido a taxa de mortalidade tardia nos últimos anos, esse declínio não ocorreu de maneira uniforme em todo o país. Objetivo: analisar as mortes neonatais tardias no Brasil no período de 2010 a 2019. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo epidemiológico, transversal e retrospectivo. Foram empregadas informações secundárias coletadas no Sistema de Informações sobre Nascidos Vivos e no Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade. A variáveis coletadas foram: (a) ao neonato: sexo, cor/raça, idade gesta-cional e peso ao nascer; (b) às mães: faixa etária e escolaridade, tipo de gestação e parto; e, (c) óbito: causa e local de ocorrência. Resultados: Houve uma redução estatisticamente significativa na mortalidade neonatal tardia entre 2010 e 2019, contudo ela não ocorreu de maneira homogênea em todas as regiões. Os neonatos mais acometidos foram do sexo masculino, brancos, prematuros e com baixo peso ao nascer. Os fatores de risco relacionados às mães foram: idade entre 20 e 29 anos, escolaridade de 8 a 11 anos, gravidez única e parto cesárea. As principais causas das mortes foram: infecções, malformações congênitas e doenças respiratórias. Conclusões: A divulgação desses dados epidemiológicos é fundamental para que os gestores possam desenvolver e direcionar políticas públicas de saúde para as regiões e grupos de risco mais necessitados.
The Effect of Employees’ Marital Satisfaction on Job Performance: Based on the Perspective of Conservation of Resource Theory
Authors: Sun Lijun , Mao Zhefei , Zhou Jie
Published: May 2022

The study linking the marriage with work explores the mechanism of action of employees’ marital satisfaction and job performance through establishing a moderated mediating effect model. The results of the correlation and regression analyses conducted by collecting questionnaires from 290 employees indicated that: (1) Emotional exhaustion and work engagement play a chain mediating role in the positive relationship between marital satisfaction and job performance. (2) Work meaningfulness and work engagement play a chain mediating role in the positive relationship between marital satisfaction and job performance. (3) The need to support a family moderates the relationship between marital satisfaction and work meaningfulness, as well as the mediating effect of work meaningfulness and work engagement on the relationship between marital satisfaction and job performance. (4) The need to support a family moderates the relationship between marital satisfaction and emotional exhaustion, as well as the mediating effect between emotional exhaustion and work engagement on marital satisfaction and job performance. (5) Self-efficacy moderates the relationship between marital satisfaction and work meaningfulness, as well as the mediating effect between work meaningfulness and work engagement on marital satisfaction and job performance. This study provides a new perspective of family as resources for improving employees’ job performance in management.
Text-to-Face Generation with StyleGAN2
Authors: Ayanthi D. M. A. , Munasinghe Sarasi
Published: May 2022

Synthesizing images from text descriptions has become an active research area with the advent of Generative Adversarial Networks. The main goal here is to generate photo-realistic images that are aligned with the input descriptions. Text-to-Face generation(T2F) is a sub-domain of Text-to-Image generation(T2I) that is more challenging due to the complexity and variation of facial attributes. It has a number of applications mainly in the domain of public safety. Even though several models are available for T2F, there is still the need to improve the image quality and the semantic alignment. In this research, we propose a novel framework, to generate facial images that are well-aligned with the input descriptions. Our framework utilizes the highresolution face generator, StyleGAN2, and explores the possibility of using it in T2F. Here, we embed text in the input latent space of StyleGAN2 using BERT embeddings and oversee the generation of facial images using text descriptions. We trained our framework on attributebased descriptions to generate images of 1024x1024 in resolution. The images generated exhibit a 57% similarity to the ground truth images, with a face semantic distance of 0.92, outperforming state-of-the-artwork. The generated images have a FID score of 118.097 and the experimental results show that our model generates promising images.

Cold, New, and Right
Authors: Brantley Allyson P.
Published: May 2022

This chapter explores the relationship between Coors family members – particularly brothers Joseph (Joe) and William (Bill) – and boycotters in the American West in the late 1960s and 1970s. Anti-Coors activists not only targeted the company for allegations of discrimination, but also because of the Coors family’s well-known political conservatism. In particular, activists noted that profits from Coors’s beer sales were used to fund conservative New Right organizations. Joe Coors was a person of special concern for boycotters, and this chapter details his increasingly public political activities, ranging from a term on the University of Colorado Board of Regents to funding the conservative Heritage Foundation and seeking a seat on the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) in 1975. Ultimately, boycotters’ activism blocked Coors’s confirmation to the CPB, but his company continued to support and pursue free market, conservative values in its business operations and corporate philanthropy.
Givin' Up This Beer for Sweeter Wine

Published: May 2022

This chapter details the longest labor-management standoff at the Coors Brewing Company in Colorado: a 21-month strike by Brewery Workers Local 366, from April 1977 to December 1978. Like the Teamsters’ strike in San Francisco, detailed in chapter 4, this standoff combined the power of the strike with the consumer boycott and became a site of creative, unexpected coalitional activism. This chapter begins by discussing the history of Brewery Workers Local 366 since the 1960s, noting the increasingly tense relations between management and the union as well as union leaders’ growing radicalization. When Brewery Workers went on strike in 1977, they launched a regional boycott campaign, sending striking workers to cities such as Los Angeles, Austin, and Denver to build vibrant, interracial, working-class coalitions in support of the strike. In spite of this, the union ultimately lost its strike, falling to a decertification election in December of 1978, rendering the Coors brewery a non-union facility; the boycott, however, would continue.
Epilogue
Authors: Willett Julie
Published: May 2022

The epilogue rejoins the discussion of feminist humor and looks at how this golden age of comedy has paved the way for the queens of comedy to take center stage. It begins, however, with Rush Limbaugh receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom which serves as a reminder of his special relationship with the President of the United States. Like Limbaugh, Donald Trump has blatantly ignored humor’s golden rule but in so doing he set himself up as the straight man and a stooge for late night comedy shows like Saturday Night Live. Indeed, a full-frontal attack has upset business as usual, and bears witness to a rising tide of female comedians whose cross-gender impersonations challenge the president and all of his men. They serve as a reminder of the limitations placed on second wave feminists like Hillary Clinton but also hope that the pig’s reign as the king of comedy will someday come to an end.
On the Road
Authors: Dunaway Finis
Published: May 2022

This chapter follows Lenny Kohm and Gwich’in representative Glenna Frost on a slide show tour in 1991. It was a pivotal time for the Arctic Refuge struggle. As Kohm and Frost wound their way through the Midwest, the Johnston-Wallop bill (which included a controversial Arctic drilling provision) wound its way through the U.S. Senate. Frost, a citizen of the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation, had been recruited by the Porcupine Caribou Management Board to join the Last Great Wilderness tour. The chapter describes what it was like for her to leave her home community of Old Crow, Yukon, and be on the road, sharing stories of her people. The chapter emphasizes how the slide show tours built relationships across vast distances and reframed the Arctic Refuge issue for grassroots audiences.
Lenny’s Epiphany
Authors: Dunaway Finis
Published: May 2022

This chapter considers Lenny Kohm’s life story, from growing up in the Seattle Jewish community during the postwar years through his career as a jazz drummer and member of the countercultural scene in the San Francisco Bay area. It then follows him to Sonoma, California, where he moved in 1977 and later pursued a career as a photographer. Much of the chapter focuses on what Kohm called his epiphany—a 1987 trip to Alaska and the Yukon that inspired his refuge activism. That summer, just as the Ronald Reagan administration called for drilling in the coastal plain, Kohm visited the Arctic Refuge, hoping to take pictures that he could sell to Audubon magazine. A chance stopover in the Gwich’in community of Arctic Village, Alaska, followed by a trip to Old Crow, Yukon, completely changed his perspective on the issue. Returning home, Kohm desperately wanted to figure out how to make a difference in the Arctic Refuge struggle.
Science and Skulduggery
Authors: Dunaway Finis
Published: May 2022

This chapter considers the politics of science in Arctic Alaska during the 1980s. It emphasizes how Ronald Reagan’s Interior Department altered the findings of government scientists to downplay the dangers of oil development. It also explains the key findings of caribou biologists related to the Porcupine caribou herd and the Arctic Refuge coastal plain. The chapter profiles two former U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologists—Fran Mauer and Pamela A. Miller—and foregrounds their perspectives on the period’s skulduggery. It recounts Miller’s story of becoming a whistleblower and leaking a controversial report to the New York Times in 1988. It also features stunning photographs taken by Mauer and Miller—of the Porcupine caribou herd and Prudhoe Bay oil development—that were included in The Last Great Wilderness. The slide show provided a grassroots mechanism for disseminating suppressed scientific knowledge to the public.
I Hope People from the South Listen
Authors: Dunaway Finis
Published: May 2022

This chapter explains how the Last Great Wilderness show frames the Arctic as Indigenous homeland by portraying Gwich’in connections to the Porcupine caribou herd. Unlike photographers who engaged in salvage ethnography and presented Indigenous cultures as doomed to extinction, Kohm wanted his photographs to help bring Gwich’in voices and Indigenous rights to the forefront of the Arctic Refuge campaign. The chapter includes discussion of a series of his photographs documenting a caribou hunt—a departure from most conservation images that present animals as spectacles for the eye, not as sustenance for the human body. It also includes snippets of an interview Kohm conducted with Randall and Mabel Tetlichi at their cabin in Old Crow, Yukon. Their words were featured in the Gwich’in segment of the show.
Budget Showdown
Authors: Dunaway Finis
Published: May 2022

The 1994 midterm elections caught the conservation community off guard. That November, Republicans seized control of the House and Senate, and soon introduced a controversial budget bill that included an Arctic Refuge drilling provision. Although President Bill Clinton had pledged his support for refuge protection, his environmental record was mixed. This chapter offers a behind-the-scenes look at the budget debate and Clinton’s eventual veto, emphasizing the crucial impact of grassroots citizen action—including Last Great Wilderness tours—on the president’s decision. It explains how refuge defenders once again applied the trickle-up theory of politics and profiles the outreach efforts organized by the Alaska Coalition, the Alaska Wilderness League, the Northern Alaska Environmental Center, and the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation.
Prologue

Described is the state of the Army of the Potomac as of June 1863, and how it had yet to win one battle in the first 21 months of the Army’s existence. Under the command of Generals George B. McClellan, John Pope, Ambrose Burnside, and Joseph Hooker, the army suffered under serious leadership failure. Meade, consequently, is ordered, not asked, by President Lincoln, to lead this dispirited Army on June 28, 1863.
The Soldiers’ Debate
Authors: Bodnar John
Published: May 2022

The debate between war-based patriots and empathic ones not only divided civilians but soldiers as well. Memoirs written by those who served in the military made it clear that there was a lack of agreement over the virtue of inflicting mass violence on people in other lands and on fellow soldiers as well. This point is illustrated in the contrasting accounts of the War on Terror such as American Sniper by Chris Kyle that stressed heroism and The Yellow Birds by Kevin Powers that focused on post-war trauma. Stories of women serving in the military also became part of this conflicted version of the War on Terror. News coverage of Jessica Lynch offered a tale that started out with heroism and ended with suffering. Stories by other women removed some of the lustre of the heroic version of war told by Navy SEALS with accounts of sexual exploitation in the ranks.
Oil Palm
Authors: Robins Jonathan E.
Published: May 2022

Oil palms are ubiquitous-grown in nearly every tropical country, they supply the world with more edible fat than any other plant and play a role in scores of packaged products, from lipstick and soap to margarine and cookies. And as Jonathan E. Robins shows, sweeping social transformations carried the plant around the planet. First brought to the global stage in the holds of slave ships, palm oil became a quintessential commodity in the Industrial Revolution. Imperialists hungry for cheap fat subjugated Africa’s oil palm landscapes and the people who worked them. In the twentieth century, the World Bank promulgated oil palm agriculture as a panacea to rural development in Southeast Asia and across the tropics. As plantation companies tore into rainforests, evicting farmers in the name of progress, the oil palm continued its rise to dominance, sparking new controversies over trade, land and labor rights, human health, and the environment. By telling the story of the oil palm across multiple centuries and continents, Robins demonstrates how the fruits of an African palm tree became a key commodity in the story of global capitalism, beginning in the eras of slavery and imperialism, persisting through decolonization, and stretching to the present day.
The Oil Palm’s New Frontiers
Authors: Robins Jonathan E.
Published: May 2022

This chapter follows the expansion of existing oil palm industries in Southeast Asia and Africa and the creation of new ones in Latin America and Asia. State-backed development was key everywhere, as states provided private firms with land and other incentives and international institutions like the World Bank provided capital. Indonesia’s Transmigration program and Malaysia’s Federal Land Development Authority used the nucleus estate-smallholder model to relocate tens of thousands of people into new oil palm plantation zones, greatly expanding production. In Latin America, old firms like United Fruit Company worked with local governments to create new oil palm industries, while in Africa colonial legacies continued to shape plans for oil palm.
Manteo's World
Authors: Rountree Helen C. , Wesley D. Taukchiray
Published: May 2022

Roanoke. Manteo. Wanchese. Chicamacomico. These place names along today’s Outer Banks are a testament to the Indigenous communities that thrived for generations along the Carolina coast. Though most sources for understanding these communities were written by European settlers who began to arrive in the late sixteenth century, those sources nevertheless offer a fascinating record of the region’s Algonquian-speaking people. Here, drawing on decades of experience researching the ethnohistory of the coastal mid-Atlantic, Helen Rountree reconstructs the Indigenous world the Roanoke colonists encountered in the 1580s. Blending authoritative research with accessible narrative, Rountree reveals in rich detail the social, political, and religious lives of Native Americans before European colonization. Then narrating the story of the famed Lost Colony from the Indigenous vantage point, Rountree reconstructs what it may have been like for both sides as stranded English settlers sought to merge with existing local communities. Finally, drawing on the work of other scholars, Rountree brings the story of the Native people forward as far as possible toward the present.
Featuring maps and original illustrations, Rountree offers a much needed introduction to the history and culture of the region’s Native American people before, during, and after the founding of the Roanoke colony.
Introduction
Authors: Rountree Helen C. , Taukchiray Wesley D.
Published: May 2022

This book, which involves (peripherally) the famous “Lost Colony,” is unabashedly Indian-centered, with the English being the stick figures instead of the Native people. Part One reconstructs the Indians’ world in what is now northeastern North Carolina, with no reference at all to Europeans. It is pure ethnography, a time capsule set just before 1584. Part Two, a history starting in 1584, brings in the English but centers upon Native reactions to them, plus cultural changes resulting from continual interaction between the two peoples: “lost” colonists’ merging with Indians in Chapter 7, and Indians later having to merge with a flood of English settlers in Chapter 8. The merging, however, did not make Indian people vanish: their descendants are still very much with us.
Dance Internationalism
Authors: Schwall Elizabeth B.
Published: May 2022

This chapter examines “dance internationalism,” a political practice of corporeal cooperation across borders. Through dance internationalism, Cuba exercised “soft power,” netting symbolic and material gains while propagating revolutionary politics. Dance internationalism not only aided the state by generating intangible and tangible dividends but also affirmed dancers’ power. Yet, this power was unequally accrued. Even though ballet, folkloric, and modern dancers contributed importantly to Cuban dance internationalism, ballet dancers travelled the most, accumulating the most symbolic and material gains, while folkloric dancers especially but also modern dancers had relatively fewer opportunities. Dancers of different genres enjoyed disparate levels of privilege at home, and these imbalances were reinscribed through activities (or lack thereof) abroad. Taken together, dance internationalists accommodated diverse Cuban foreign policy initiatives and racialized national identities in Africa, the so-called first and second worlds, and Latin America. Moreover, dance internationalists could do what so-called hard power could not: sidestep the US embargo to flood into countries around the world.
Epilogue
Authors: Schwall Elizabeth B.
Published: May 2022

The epilogue reflects on the sixty-year history of concert dance covered in previous chapters from the vantage point of 2019. Concert dancers had created vibrant institutions and supportive audiences that still exist today. Yet, a quiet anxiousness hovered over enterprises due to political transitions, economic challenges, and new forms of repression like Decree 349 against “vulgar” art signed by President Miguel Díaz-Canel. As a result, the sixty years examined in this book shimmered for dance makers on the island and in the diaspora. During that period, dance makers sought and secured degrees of power and used their ephemeral, nonverbal form to weigh in on pressing political issues. However, pain—inflicted by peers, company directors, and bureaucrats—was equally part of the process. Moreover, the privileges secured by famed ballerina Alicia Alonso and her company came at the expense of modern and folkloric dance. All these ambiguities show concert dance as a compelling symbol of the prospects and pitfalls of partnering with the Revolution, as well as the resilience and creativity of the Cuban body politic.
Epilogue

In the early 2000s, the heirs of forest company magnate Fred Babcock sold one of the last large ranches in Florida to property developer Syd Kitson. Known as Babcock Ranch, the 91,000-acre spread in Lee and Charlotte Counties sold for $700 million, with the state receiving some 50,000 acres of it for an environmental refuge, and Kitson receiving the rest for a planned community also known Babcock Ranch. However, Kitson promised to build the “anti-Port Charlotte,” a solar-powered community of parks and bike paths and hiking trails using New Urbanist designs.

Characterization of inexpensive MOx sensor performance for trace methane detection
Authors: Furuta Daniel , Sayahi Tofigh , Li Jinsheng , Wilson Bruce , Presto Albert A. , Li Jiayu
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Methane, a major contributor to climate change, is emitted by a variety of natural and anthropogenic sources. Commercially available lab-grade instruments for sensing trace methane are expensive, and previous efforts to develop inexpensive field-deployable trace methane sensors have had mixed results. Industrial and commercial metal oxide semiconductor (MOx) methane sensors, which are intended for leak detection and safety monitoring, can potentially be repurposed and adapted for low-concentration sensing. As an initial step towards developing a low-cost sensing system, we characterize the performance of five off-the-shelf MOx sensors for 2–10 ppm methane detection in a laboratory setting (Figaro Engineering TGS2600, TGS2602, TGS2611-C00, TGS2611-E00, and Henan Hanwei Electronics MQ4). We identify TGS2611-C00, TGS2611-E00, and MQ4 as promising for trace methane sensing, but show that variations in ambient humidity and temperature pose a challenge for the sensors in this application.

Abstract. Up-to-date digital soil resources information, and its comprehensive understanding, is crucial to support crop production and sustainable agricultural development. Generating such information through conventional approaches consumes time and resources, which is difficult for developing countries. In Ethiopia, the soil resource map that was in use is qualitative, dated (since 1984), and small-scale (1:2 M) which limits its practical applicability. Yet, a large legacy soil profile data accumulated over time and the emerging machine learning modelling approaches can help in generating a high-quality quantitative digital soil map that can provide accurate soil information. Thus, a group of researchers formed a coalition of the willing for soil and agronomy data sharing and collated about 20,000 soil profile data and stored them in a central database. The data were cleaned and harmonized using the latest soil profile data template and prepared 14,681 profile data for modelling. Random Forest was used to develop a continuous quantitative digital map of 18 WRB reference soil groups at 250 m resolution by integrating environmental variables-covariates representing major Ethiopian soil-forming factors. The validated map will have tremendous significance in soil management and other land-based development planning, given its improved spatial nature and quantitative digital representation.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Methane (CH4) is the second most produced greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, however the role of the open ocean in its natural cycle remains poorly constrained. Accumulating evidence indicates that a significant part of oceanic CH4 is produced in oxygenated surface waters as a by-product of phytoplanktonic activity. The subtropical North Atlantic Ocean between 26° N 80’W and 26° N 18’W was investigated for the distribution of dissolved CH4 concentrations and associated air-sea fluxes during winter 2020. Water samples from 64 stations were collected from the upper water column up to depths of 400 m. The upper oxic mixed-layer was oversaturated in dissolved CH4 with concentrations ranging between 3–7 nmol/l, with the highest values of 7–10 nmol/l found to the east of the transect, consistent with other subtropical regions of the world’s oceans. The high anomalies of dissolved CH4 appeared to be associated to phosphorus depleted waters and to a peak of regions of elevated phytoplankton abundance. Further investigations indicated a correlation between CH4 anomalies, phosphate depletion and the abundance of two ubiquitous pico-cyanobacteria, Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus, although other phytoplanktonic phyla cannot be excluded. The calculation of air-sea fluxes confirms the subtropical North Atlantic Ocean as a source of CH4, mainly produced by phytoplanktonic activity in surface waters.

Abstract. The integrated distributed hydrological model ParFlow-CLM was used to predict water and energy transport between subsurface, land surface, and atmosphere for the Stettbach headwater catchment, Germany. Based on this model, a global sensitivity analysis was performed using the Latin-Hypercube (LH) sampling strategy followed by the One-factor-At-a-Time (OAT) method to identify the most influential and interactive parameters affecting the main hydrologic processes. In total 12 parameters were evaluated including soil hydraulic properties, storage, Manning coefficient, leaf area index, stem area index, and aerodynamic resistance that characterize water and energy fluxes in soil and vegetation. In addition, the sensitivity analysis was also carried out for different slopes and meteorological conditions to test the transferability of the results to regions with other topographies and climates. Our results show that the simulated energy fluxes, i.e. latent heat flux and sensible heat flux are sensitive to the parameters such as wilting point, leaf area index, and stem area index, especially for steep slope and subarctic climate conditions. The simulated soil evaporation, plant transpiration, infiltration, and runoff, are most sensitive to soil porosity, the van Genuchten parameter n representing the soil pore size distribution, soil wilting point, and leaf area index. The subsurface soil water storage and groundwater storage are most sensitive to soil porosity, while the surface water storage was most sensitive to the soil roughness parameter. For the different slope and climate conditions, the rank order of input parameter sensitivity is consistent, but the magnitude of parameter sensitivity is very different. The strongest deviation in parameter sensitivity occurred for sensible heat flux under the different slope conditions as well as for transpiration under different climate conditions. Overall, this study provides an insight into the most important input parameters that control hydrological fluxes and how the simulated variables vary with the change in parameter values, which can improve our understanding of the key processes in the model and help us to reduce the computational demands of completing multiple simulations of expensive domains.
A lumped species approach for the simulation of secondary organic aerosol production from intermediate volatility organic compounds (IVOCs): Application to road transport in PMCAMx-iv (v1.0)
Authors: Manavi Stella E. I. , Pandis Spyros N.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is formed in the atmosphere through the oxidation and condensation of organic compounds. Intermediate volatility compounds, compounds with effective saturation concentration (C*) at 298 K between 103 and 106 μg m-3, have high SOA yields and can be important SOA precursors. The first efforts to simulate IVOCs in chemical transport models (CTMs) used the volatility basis set (VBS), a highly parametrized scheme that oversimplifies their chemistry. In this work we propose a more detailed approach for simulating IVOCs in CTMs, treating them as lumped species that retain their chemical characteristics. Specifically, we introduce four new lumped species representing large alkanes, two lumped species representing polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and one species representing large aromatics, all in the IVOC range. We estimate IVOC emissions from road transport using existing estimates of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and emission factors of individual IVOCs from experimental studies. Over the European domain, for the simulated period of May 2008, estimated IVOC emissions from road transport were about 21 Mmol d-1, a factor of 8 higher than emissions used in previous VBS applications. The IVOC emissions from diesel vehicles were significantly higher than those from gasoline ones. SOA yields under low-NOx and high-NOx conditions for the lumped IVOC species were estimated based on recent smog chamber studies. Large cyclic alkane compounds have both high yields and high emissions, making them an important, yet understudied, class of IVOCs.
Snowmelt Characterization from Optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar Observations in the Lajoie Basin, British Columbia

Abstract. Snowmelt runoff serves both human needs and ecosystem services and is an important parameter in operational forecasting systems. Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) observations can estimate the timing of melt within a snowpack; however, these estimates have not been applied on large spatial scales. We present here a workflow to fuse Sentinel-1 SAR and optical data from Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 to estimate the onset and duration of snowmelt in the Lajoie Basin, a large watershed in the Southern Coast Mountains of British Columbia. A backscatter threshold is used to infer the point at which snowpack saturation occurs, and the snowpack begins to produce runoff. Multispectral imagery is used to estimate snow free dates across the basin to define the end of the snowmelt period. SAR estimates of snowmelt onset form consistent trends by elevation and aspect on the watershed scale and reflect snowmelt records from continuous SWE observations. SAR estimates of snowpack saturation are most effective on moderate to low slopes (< 30°) in open areas. The accuracy of snowmelt durations is reduced due to persistent cloud cover in optical imagery. Despite these challenges, snowmelt durations agree with trends in snow depths observed in the Lajoie. This approach has high potential for adaptability to other alpine regions and can provide estimates of snowmelt timing in ungauged basins.

Propuesta didáctica de sintaxis para futuros maestros de primaria
Authors: Davis González Ana
Published: May 2022

El estudio que sigue es la aplicación de un CIMA (Ciclo de Mejora en el Aula) llevado a cabo en la asignatura Lengua Española y su Didáctica del Grado de Educación Primaria (Universidad de Sevilla). Consiste en una propuesta didáctica sobre enseñanza del análisis sintáctico en la educación universitaria de futuros maestros de primaria. La hipótesis de partida es la distancia que existe entre la superación de la sintaxis tradicional por parte de la investigación académica, y su persistencia en la enseñanza pre-universitaria. Nuestra opinión es que, para que la enseñanza del análisis sintáctico sea efectiva, se debe comenzar a romper progresivamente con tal abismo en el Grado de Educación Primaria, modificando algunas cuestiones del análisis sintáctico tradicional en la educación ―por ejemplo, incluyendo la semántica, o trabajando con oraciones contextualizadas y no aisladas―. Tal ha sido el objetivo del CIMA que presentamos en las siguientes páginas.

El presente artículo muestra un estudio llevado a cabo en la Universidad Europea del Atlántico, Santander, en el que se pretende descubrir la preferencia por los textos literarios y de información en función del grado de estudios que se cursa. Para ello se analizó una muestra de 193 estudiantes de primer curso en varios grados. Para el análisis, se diseñó un cuestionario ad hoc en el que se recogieron las opiniones del alumnado acerca de sus preferencias en cuanto a distintos tipos de textos literarios e informativos, entre ellos el texto científico. Se aplicó el cuestionario por medio de la herramienta Google Forms. Tras un análisis de contraste con la prueba H de Kruskal-Wallis y una prueba post hoc U de Mann-Whitney, se obtuvo que la preferencia por la novela de ficción, romance, viajes/turismo, ciencia, deporte/salud, música, literatura clásica y el género poético presentan diferencias significativas entre los grados de estudios. Los estudiantes de la Facultad de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades fueron los que menor interés parecían tener por la lectura científica y, sorprendentemente, los estudiantes del grado de Psicología mostraron tener poco interés por la temática de salud. Cumpliendo así con el objetivo del estudio, se plantean futuras líneas de investigación para acercar al profesorado universitario a una selección de la literatura, en función de los intereses más cercanos al perfil de estudiante del grado que cursa, así como el planteamiento de actividades que acompañen a la literatura científica-académica en ciertos grados para que esta sea mejor recibida.

El Tratamiento Integrado de Lenguas (TIL) ha ganado adeptos en la última década en comunidades con sistemas educativos multilingües como el del País Vasco. El objetivo de este enfoque es diseñar currículos que involucren a los agentes responsables de la enseñanza y uso de las lenguas en el ámbito escolar. El reto consiste en generar intervenciones didácticas que posibiliten la transferencia de conocimiento entre las lenguas y que mejore la competencia comunicativa del estudiante. En este estudio, que tiene como objetivo conocer qué opina el profesorado acerca de la implantación de este enfoque, han participado treinta y seis docentes en ejercicio de Educación Primaria de la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco que estaban recibiendo formación en TIL de manera voluntaria. Unos debates guiados en foros dieron lugar a la creación de matrices DAFO acerca de sus percepciones sobre la implementación de este enfoque. El análisis cualitativo muestra que, por lo general, los docentes están preocupados por su labor y no tanto por los beneficios que conlleva la aplicación del método para los estudiantes. Los resultados de este estudio permiten inferir líneas de actuación para la formación del profesorado en TIL y herramientas de gestión para los centros educativos.
HACIA LA EVALUACIÓN CONTINUA DESDE LA EVALUACIÓN CONTINUA: REALIDAD Y HORIZONTE DE UNA DE LAS BASES DE NUESTRO SISTEMA EDUCATIVO
Authors: Tudurí Vila Camila
Published: May 2022

La evaluación continua fue introducida en el sistema educativo español por la Ley General de Educación de 1970. Desde entonces las sucesivas leyes educativas la han mantenido como paradigma básico de evaluación en las diferentes etapas no universitarias. La experiencia nos demuestra que el traslado del concepto a la práctica docente se ha hechode manera muy diversa y no siempre apropiada. Un grupo de inspectores de las Islas Baleares elaboró en 2018 un documento para guiar al profesorado desde las ideas desencaminadas más comunes sobre la evaluación continua hacia la aplicación de pautas para diseñar procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje alineados con ella.
