Lugar de cumplimiento de la prestación que sirve de base a la demanda en los contratos de compraventa internacional de mercaderías como criterio atributivo de competencia en el sistema Bruselas (AAP Barcelona 17 noviembre 2020)
Authors: Cordero Álvarez Clara Isabel
Published: October 2021

La resolución objeto de análisis deniega el recurso de apelación presentado contra Auto de instancia que aprecia la declinatoria internacional presentada por la parte demandada en relación con la jurisdicción española, en un caso de supuesto incumplimiento de contrato internacional de compraventa de mercaderías, suscrito entre una empresa española y otra austriaca. Entre los motivos de apelación, el recurrente alega la infracción del artículo 4.1 del Reglamento Roma I y la aplicación errónea de lo dispuesto en los artículos 5 y 7 del Reglamento Bruselas I bis, mezclando y confundiendo cuestiones distintas del Derecho internacional privado y, consecuentemente, fundamentando de forma errónea su pretensión. La Audiencia Provincial de Barcelona confirma la resolución de instancia, con un razonamiento bastante correcto en relación con la aplicación de la regla de competencia del art. 7.1 letra b) del Reglamento Bruselas I bis, con un uso bastante adecuado de la doctrina del TJUE.

Validity of choice of court agreements, abusive terms in air carriage contracts, assignments and compensation, is there room for anyone else? (Comments on CJEU Judgment Delayfix, c-519/19)
Authors: Ruiz Martín Anna María
Published: October 2021

In Delayfix case, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has interpreted the formal and substantive validity of a “choice of court agreement” included in an air carriage of passenger’s contract. But, for the first time, the CJEU has openly declared the unfair nature of these choice of court agreements, not only for the passengers, but also for third parties assigned by them. In opposition with former case law on the effects of a choice of court agreement for assignees. In carriage of passengers’ contracts, third parties are usually agencies devoted to the defense of air passenger rights and collection of credits who claim for the compensation rights in accordance with the rights conferred by Regulation 261/2004. From the EU Private International Law approach, the preliminary ruling is of interest, being the Brussels I bis regulation the instrument for clarifying whether this choice of court agreement should be deemed as enforceable or not, regarding the requirements of Article 25 Brussels I bis due to these contracts are not considered as consumer contracts. To the analysis of the merits and substantive law, contrarily than under EU Private International law rules these contracts are considered as Business to consumer (B2C) contracts, and Directive 93/13/CEE and other EU Consumer rules must be applied so as to determine the unfair nature of these clauses in these contracts.
Alcance de cláusulas de sumisión mixtas para los efectos de actos de competencia desleal en redes y contratos de distribución exclusiva: comentario del auto de la Audiencia Provincial de Zaragoza nº 728/2020, Sección 5ª.“Sé lo que hicisteis el último acue
Authors: Ruiz Martín Anna María
Published: October 2021

El asunto que se comenta en este análisis suscita interés para los litigios de competencia desleal y los contratos de distribución con pacto de exclusiva y elemento extranjero. En este procedimiento del Auto y otros anteriores que hubo entre las partes, se dilucidaba si una cláusula de sumisión expresa mixta que estaba inserta en el contrato de distribución, tenía alcance sobre los presuntos actos de competencia desleal cometidos por una de las partes de este contrato, que había sido resuelto en un primer procedimiento, ante los mismos tribunales. La Audiencia Provincial de Zaragoza entendió en el segundo procedimiento que en el alcance de la cláusula de sumisión expresa mixta no se podían ver entendidos los actos de competencia desleal demandados. Primero, porque considera que la redacción de la cláusula no tenía tanto alcance, y porque los actos de competencia desleal no tienen cabida en el ámbito material de la Convención de la Haya de 2005. Segundo, porque los efectos de estos actos desleales se habían producido o desplegado en el mercado norteamericano. Entendiendo que como la cláusula de sumisión expresa no era válida para otorgarles competencia judicial internacional en este caso, se debía aplicar el foro de competencia territorial del artículo 52.1.12ª de la LEC, para actos de competencia desleal, que tampoco les otorgaba competencia para conocerlos.

Sustainable development goals, rule of law and public policy: implications for the traditional family model
Authors: Garcia Júnior Armando Alvares
Published: October 2021

Based on international public policy as an extension of national sovereignty, governments with authoritarian deviations are reforming their constitutions, criminal laws, etc. with the aim of preserving the inalienable values of their States and the Christian roots of their societies (traditional marriage and family model). For this purpose, basing on the vertical conception of SDG 16 (in which the areas of peace and justice are subordinated to the area of strong institutions), they seek to strengthen the state by gradually annulling its “disintegrating factors”: Muslim immigrants and refugees, members of the LGBTI community, leftist politicians, independent journalists and the EU itself (values, legislation and its incipient public policy). The research analyzes this problem affecting the family and its rights .
Public policy: united in diversity... within the marriage?
Authors: Marino Silvia
Published: October 2021

The present paper tackles the development of the notion of public policy in the definition of the concept of marriage. It starts from brief remarks on the case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union in the field of the right to free movement of people and of the European Court of Human Rights on the right to private and family life. Then, it analyses the uncertainties stemming from the national divergences. Further, the impact of the Coman case on the applicability of EU measures on civil judicial cooperation and on the notion of public policy is examined. Conclusively, the paper submits some considerations on the modern function of the public policy.

Change analyses of coffee soil cover in the State of Paraná
Authors: Vaz de Lima José Gabriel , Coltri Priscila Pereira
Published: October 2021

Coffee is a crop of great agronomic interest worldwide. It is one of the most negotiable tropical products, and it has been gaining “specialty” status around the world, with increasing number of plantations in places with Geographical Indications. Studies show that coffee has been undergoing recent changes in planting area, due to different economic, social, cultural, and climatic reasons. The change of in the planted area of a crop causes many different events; among them, the substitution of it for other agricultural crops. As such, sugarcane is a crop that has been recently gaining space, as its planted area increased considerably. In this sense, this work sought to analyze the change in the use and occupation of coffee soil in the State of Paraná between 1998 and 2018, comparing it with the change in the use of sugarcane soil; with altitude; and with regions with indication of source in the state. The results suggest a reduction of 92.29% of the planted area of coffee and an increase of 289.87% in the planted area of sugarcane. The results also suggests that coffee was replaced by sugarcane in some sites. The remaining coffee plantations were concentrated in the region of indication of source in the Northern region of the state, which has lower altitudes.
Modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos em BIM para o projeto estrutural
Authors: Ribeiro Renan Rocha , César Júnior Kléos Magalhães Lenz
Published: October 2021

A modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos constitui paradigma natural e essencial da Modelagem da Informação da Construção (BIM), potencializando a automação e contribuindo para a manutenção da consistência entre as informações do modelo. Estudos de sua potencialidade e aplicação prática ao projeto estrutural são importantes para a difusão do conceito entre os profissionais desta disciplina. O presente trabalho visa explorar a modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos em BIM, no contexto do projeto de estruturas, por meio do estudo de caso de fundações tipo tubulão, utilizando a plataforma Autodesk Revit. O delineamento do estudo de caso segue: (i) apresentação de conceitos e etapas da modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos no Revit; (ii) detalhamento do processo de   modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos de uma Família de fundações tipo tubulão; (iii) aplicação da Família modelada no contexto de um modelo real. O trabalho apresenta conceitos, estratégias e práticas para a modelagem paramétrica de elementos estruturais, além de um mapa de processo que descreve a utilização de objetos paramétricos no contexto de um projeto estrutural que tire proveito da modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos em BIM. Foi observado que a modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos em um ambiente BIM para projetos estruturais é tecnicamente viável e apresenta vantagens e benefícios a serem explorados pelos profissionais da área. Entretanto, a estrutura rígida de classes a nível de categoria na plataforma Revit restringe a modelagem paramétrica baseada em objetos oferecida exigindo soluções paliativas.
Exposição ao ruído do transporte rodoviário em Brasília, Brasil
Authors: Garavelli Sérgio Luiz , Maroja Armando de Mendonça , Carvalho Júnior Edson Benício de , Costa Cleber Alves da
Published: October 2021

A contaminação acústica é um dos principais problemas ambientais nos grandes centros urbanos gerados pelo tráfego rodoviário. Os mapas acústicos são ferramentas importantes para a gestão do ruído nestes locais. O objetivo principal deste artigo é apresentar os resultados da avaliação do impacto acústico devido ao tráfego rodoviário sobre a população de Brasília. O trabalho também apresenta uma metodologia alternativa para aquisição dos dados do tráfego, necessários para elaboração dos mapas acústicos. A velocidade, o fluxo e a composição do tráfego foram obtidos a partir dos dados fornecidos pelos controladores eletrônicos de velocidade, comuns na maioria das cidades e complementados com filmagens e medições acústicas in situ. Na elaboração dos mapas acústicos foi utilizado software de simulação e seguidas as recomendações da Comunidade Europeia. A partir da análise dos mapas, foram estimados o incomodo devido ao tráfego rodoviário e o número de pessoas sujeitas à distúrbios no sono. Os resultados indicam que a metodologia alternativa proposta é adequada e pode ser utilizada em outras cidades, diminuindo os custos para elaboração dos mapas, que são elevados. Os resultados mostram ainda que apesar do trânsito intenso na cidade, os percentuais de pessoas altamente incomodadas e sujeitas a distúrbios no sono é relativamente pequeno. A estrutura hierárquica, a forma das vias e o modelo de Superquadras utilizados em Brasília, contribuem para a melhoria das condições de conforto acústico, ou seja, os resultados deste artigo mostram uma influência positiva da concepção urbanística nas condições de conforto acústico da cidade.
Análise de incerteza de parâmetros com base em processos críticos em avaliação do ciclo de vida de edificações
Authors: Baiochi Arthur Gusson , Silva Vanessa Gomes da
Published: October 2021

Apesar de inerentes à avaliação do ciclo de vida (ACV), incertezas são raramente declaradas explicitamente, prevalecendo a comunicação determinística de resultados. Quando utilizados métodos probabilísticos para análises de incerteza, predomina a simulação de Monte Carlo. Como tal simulação demanda muitas informações de entrada, priorizar a análise de processos críticos torna-se particularmente relevante para avaliações envolvendo um número elevado de processos, como as de edificações completas (ACVed). Como prova de conceito, desenvolvemos um protocolo e ilustramos sua aplicação a um caso de edificação inserida em um contexto de escassez de dados de inventário, tanto de primeiro quanto de segundo plano. O protocolo compõe-se de quatro etapas: análise de contribuição; análise semiquantitativa por meio da matriz Pedigree; análise quantitativa através da simulação de Monte Carlo; e visualização dos resultados em um sistema de categorização de parâmetros. Em geral, a incerteza de parâmetro atrelada aos processos estudados foi elevada, já que diretamente influenciada pela extensão da informação de incerteza fornecida pelas bases de dados, e adaptações ou estimativas necessárias. O protocolo permitiu identificar e analisar os processos mais críticos (alta contribuição e alta incerteza, simultaneamente) da ACVed, e mensurar as respectivas incertezas de parâmetro. O emprego da matriz Pedigree para caracterizar a qualidade dos dados inviabiliza-se diante do nível de esforço depreendido para uma alteração apenas sutil do perfil de incertezas. Sugere-se revisar os coeficientes e automatizar o processo de contextualização. O sistema de categorização de parâmetros facilita o diálogo entre analista e projetista, fundamental para tomada de decisão pautada por desempenho ambiental.

A introdução do rendimento básico incondicional sob uma perspectiva liberal
Authors: Zeferino Ferreira Rui Miguel
Published: October 2021

O presente artigo debruça-se sobre as implicações da introdução do rendimento básico incondicional sob uma perspectiva liberal, desenvolvendo para o efeito a sua conceitualização jurídica e econômica. Nesse contexto, pretende-se apresentá-la não como uma solução perfeita, mas como uma opção em face do contexto de globalização, de economia digital e de revolução tecnológica. Assim, a concepção apresentada cumpre os princípios basilares da economia, por satisfazer um objetivo político a um custo econômico mínimo, melhor do que qualquer outro sistema previdenciário ou tributário, para a construção de um futuro Estado de bem-estar, o qual se conjuga com um sistema fiscal de flat tax, como forma de ultrapassar as críticas de utopismo. Pelo que se concluirá que um rendimento básico incondicional é sempre uma opção arriscada, mas a inexistência de qualquer sistema de rendimento básico incondicional poderá ser ainda mais arriscada em um mundo em profunda mudança.
Liderança feminina: mulheres que constroem o Tribunal de Contas da União
Authors: Dantas Bruno , Sampaio Silva Pereira Ana Paula
Published: October 2021

A igualdade de gênero é tema cada vez mais em voga na atualidade. Estudos apontam a relevância de instituições públicas e privadas em promover a diversidade nas posições de liderança. Neste tocante, organismos internacionais e nacionais, como a ONU e o IBGE definiram metas públicas de participação efetiva da mulher em todas as esferas da vida em comunidade. Apesar da atualidade do tema e das metas estabelecidas, a desigualdade entre homens e mulheres persiste. Na administração pública brasileira, a participação de mulheres em cargo de liderança é proporcionalmente menor a dos homens. Nesse contexto, a partir do cenário que o TCU revela sobre o tema, o artigo se propõe a apresentar reflexões sobre a liderança feminina, bem como sobre a importância de se assegurar às mulheres maior acesso aos cargos políticos de alto escalão, como forma de garantir uma participação feminina mais igualitária nos processos decisórios das organizações públicas.

In the last decade, Performance assessment of banking sectors in advanced economies became a prominent issue investment decision. This paper aims to evaluate the balanced-scorecard-based performance of the Turkish banking sector using the Analytic Network Process Approach. Within this scope, all 33 deposit banks were intended to analyze out of 34 banks. Within this scope, we made an analysis in order to determine which perspectives of the balanced scorecard approach are appropriate for each type of bank (state banks, private banks, foreign banks). In this study, we used Analytic Network Process (ANP) approaches so as to achieve this objective. With a balanced-scorecard performance assessment of the banking sector using the ANP approach, all the factor priorities have been extracted and normalized to one for each cluster and final priorities have been obtained. The final priorities and rankings of each perspective of the balanced scorecard and the type of bank ownership have been assessed in the model. According to the results of the analysis, Findings demonstrate that (i) financial factor of balanced scorecard approach has the first rank with 65.7 percent; (ii) Customer perceptive is in the second rank with 22.1 percent. (iii)Third and fourth ranks have close results, (iv) learning and growth stay in the third rank with 6.3 percent (v) internal factor has the weakest importance with 5.9%, (vi) state banks into bank ownership have the highest rank with 53.9 percent, (vii) Private owned banks are the second in the relative performance of the bank groups with 36.1%, (viii) Balanced scorecard based performance of foreign banks are replaced in the last order with approximately 10%.

INVESTIGATION OF THE INFLUENCE OF PARTICLE SIZE OF RICE HUSK ASH AS ADSORBENT FOR MERCURY IN COLUMN ADSORPTION SYSTEM
Authors: Nurandini Desi , Lestari Riani Ayu , Syauqiah Isna , Rizalli Ahmad , Rahmatullah Ryan
Published: October 2021

The presence of heavy metal mercury (Hg2+) in liquid waste has caused serious problems to environmental pollution. One of the most effective method to reduce the levels of heavy metals mercury (Hg2+) in liquid waste is adsorption. Rice husk ash is highly potential to adsorb heavy metals in water because it is a porous material with a high silica content. Therefore, rice husk ash can be used as an adsorbent for heavy metals in liquid waste. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of mercury (Hg2+) that can be adsorbed from the column adsorption process using adsorbent of rice husk ash and to determine the optimum mass of rice husk ash as an adsorbent. The research was conducted using a series of simple adsorption column tools with a circulation time of 120 minutes. While the independent variables were adsorbent particle size of 50, 100, and 200 mesh. Measurement of mercury (Hg2+) levels was carried out on samples before and after treatment with Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The results showed a significant decrease in Hg2+ levels with the optimum adsorbent particle size of 200 mesh. The value of the adsorbed Hg2+ ion content reached 101.670 mg/L in the adsorption process using adsorbent with 200 mesh particle size .
Global Challenges and Formation of a Strategy for Sustainable Development of Automotive Industry in Russia
Authors: Zhurova L. , Krakovskaya I.
Published: October 2021

The purpose of the article is, based on the analysis of global trends in the development of the world automotive industry, to identify the development problems of the Russian automotive industry, to formulate key aspects of improving the strategic management of the industry development. The COVID‑19 pandemic has demonstrated the vulnerability of globalized supply chains, accelerated the digital transformation of the economy, and the development of CASE (Connected, Autonomous, Shared & Services, Electric) technologies in the automotive industry. Russia lags far behind other countries in readiness to use such technologies. It is obvious that the global pandemic will lead to the emergence of different car markets, the Russian market by the world’s leading car manufacturers in the long term will be considered as a market for cars with gasoline and diesel engines. The global challenges caused by the COVID‑19 pandemic, the development of new technologies, the existing imbalance between production capacities and the demand for automotive equipment, a low level of localization of production, and low export potential of the Russian automotive industry actualize the issues of improving the strategic management of the industry development. The analysis of strategies and programs for the development of the automotive industry indicates a weak account of the economic potential and risks of the industry development, weak coordination of hierarchically related state, regional, cluster and corporate strategies and development programs. The paper proposes a hierarchical approach to the process of strategic planning for the development of the automotive industry, based on the principles of consistency and subordination of state programs, sectoral, regional, cluster and corporate strategic development plans, which allows balancing the interests of federal and regional governments and automotive corporations, resources and development projects. Coordination of strategic plans and programs for the development of the automotive industry consists in the coordination of: target indicators of strategies and programs of different hierarchical levels of management; activities and timing of programs; conditions for the provision of funds from the federal and regional budgets to finance programs; mechanisms for the implementation of strategies and programs. Given the global challenges, strategic documents at the national, sectoral and corporate levels should be focused not only on overcoming the consequences of economic crises, but also on ensuring sustainable development in the long term. Thus, it is advisable to talk about the formation of not just a strategy for the development of the automotive industry in Russia, but about strategies for the sustainable development of this industry and corporations within it, developed in accordance with national and international documents.
Beyond Brexit: on the Occasion of Reinvention of Britain’s Global Role
Authors: Strezhneva M.
Published: October 2021

In the middle of March, 2021, the UK prime minister presented to Parliament the integrated review of security, defence, development and foreign policy of Britain. The vision it pictures amounts to the final renunciation of the famous Churchill’s three circles doctrine. To better explain this thoroughgoing paradigmatic change, it might be useful to consider the meanings assigned of it by those immediately involved. In this article, it is argued that Brexit was in no small part the result of the UK being unable to turn round the development of the regional integration process on the European continent in directions, corresponding to British preference. With the withdrawal of the country from the EU having been accomplished, the reappraisal of its global role became an existential problem for London. In particular, conspicuous divergence between the foreign policy courses of Britain and the EU appears unavoidable in the observable future. Paradoxical, seemingly irrational nature of this experience, inter alia, prompts its interpretivist analytical treatment. Thus, in the article, rationale and reflection delivered by British key politicians and foreign policy experts, as concerns the ideas of “Global Britain”, “Anglosphere” and “Indo-Pacific tilt”, are contemplated not as direct assertions of intent, but as important reference points for timely modification of national foreign policy strategy. Talking about “Anglosphere” comes across like searching for a substitution to the European Union to serve as a framework for British foreign policy, while the “Indo-Pacific tilt” narrative comes laden with hopes for making Brexit a true story of success. The Conservative government perceives the country as a liberal and cosmopolitan middleranking power with exceptional foreign policy potential, soaring to new global heights amidst multilateral networks and bilateral partnerships it is precast to further cultivate.
The possible role of molecular mimicry in SARS-CoV-2-mediated autoimmunity: an immunobiochemical basis
Authors: Kovačić Dženan , Jotanović Jovana , Laković Jasmina
Published: October 2021

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by the novel Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), persists as a threat to global health and continues to be a rapidly evolving condition. Although COVID19 is negatively correlated with the existing comorbidities in terms of the clinical outcome, the ability of SARS-CoV-2 to mediate the novel, or to exacerbate the existing autoimmune conditions, has generated considerable interest, due to its potential implications both with regard to patients suffering from autoimmune conditions, as well as to the long-term consequences of the disease. However, although molecular mimicry has been postulated as a potential causative factor in post-COVID19 autoimmunity and multi-organ damage, a substantial body of research needs to emerge in order to achieve a more definitive conclusion. We investigated the possibility of SARS-CoV-2 peptide sequences behaving as molecular mimics with a potential to trigger an autoimmune response. Thus, on the basis of analysis in silico, we were able to develop a plausible case for the molecular mimicry as a potential aetiological mechanism of SARS-CoV-2-mediated autoimmunity, both in a multi-organ damage context or outside of the viral phase of infection. Interestingly, this is the first time that the peptide sequence of MACROD1 has been implicated in the COVID-19 autoimmunity. Additionally, we also confirm that PARP9 and PARP14 may be involved in the process.

Subject of the article is actual as never given the speed and volatility of data transfer and it’s processing. Authors have attended the topic of “digital transformation” multiple times, researching both negative and positive outcomes of this process. To define some of the potentially negative - alienation from other elements of life due to division of labor, personal and professional diviations. Some of the standing out positives - RnD and creative potential provided by virtual space, ability to effectively model technical and social processes, gamification as an additional tool of education development. This article is focused around the methodology of the elective education course “Constructing virtual worlds: game, science fiction and futurology” that was held in 2020/2021. Authors provide detailed description of how this course has been formed and method of its delivery to the audience. Being done as the dialogue between speakers and students, through the means of constant discussion, the course allowed not just to constantly receive and apply feedback to real-time, but also to form a thought process, reasonable for subjects in discussion. The course has provoked a lot of interest both in academic and industrial circles and has been discussed at multiple professional media platforms. Major results are ability to develop disciplines for new masters programs and programs of additional specialization. Authors are also confident that the course can be the beginning of new research and practical transdisciplinary fields aimed to explore vision and ideas of virtual space, cyber space and metaverse.

SuperPATH Total Hip Arthroplasty
Authors: Avshalumov Stanislav , Frane Nicholas , Stapleton Erik James , Aberman Zachary , Bandovic Ivan , Wicker Alex
Published: October 2021

Introduction:

The supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip (SuperPATH) approach and technique are a relatively new minimally invasive procedure for total hip replacement. The theoretical benefits include muscle sparing, no hip precautions, smaller incision, decrease in blood loss, and a relative familiar approach for joint surgeons. The aim of our study was to assess the early results and learning curve using the SuperPATH technique.

Methods:

A retrospective cohort analysis of the first 28 SuperPATH hip replacements by a single surgeon was performed. The learning curve was assessed by evaluating the results of 2 groups of 14 cases grouped in order in which they were performed. Group 1 was comprised of the first 14 cases, and group 2 of the last 14 cases. Primary measures included operative time and blood loss as surrogates of technical improvement. Secondary measures recorded were length of stay, acetabular component inclination angle, postoperative leg length discrepancy, and intraoperative complications. Descriptive statistics were used to describe the patient cohort, and comparative testing was performed to determine differences between the groups. Statistical significance was defined as p < 0.05.

Results:

The duration of the operative procedure between the first 14 cases and the last 14 cases was statistically significant (p = 0.045), 162.85 and 142.67 minutes, respectively. The length of stay was also statistically significant (p = 0.020) between the 2 groups, 3.5 and 2.5 days, respectively. There was no difference between the groups for blood loss, acetabular inclination angle, and leg length discrepancy.

Conclusions:

This study found a gradual decrease in operative time without plateau between the 2 groups, suggesting that operative time will continue to decrease in the future. Future research will include an extended follow-up of the study group to determine longer-term outcomes and complications. Furthermore, a larger sample size will be needed to determine when the learning curve levels off for this procedure.

А.Ф. Слудский и Карадагская научная станция имени Т.И. Вяземского в 1917 году
Authors: Михаленок Д. К.
Published: October 2021

В 1917 г. в связи с известными политическими событиями в России, работа еще не окрепшей Карадагской научной станции им. Т.И. Вяземского была поставлена под угрозу. Тем не менее, силами малочисленных приезжих ученых, заведующего станцией А.Ф. Слудского и его помощника В.Н. Вучетича, проводились научные исследования. Вышел первый выпуск Трудов станции – этим станция заявила о себе в научном мире. Однако, в кризисных социальных условиях у А.Ф. Слудского возник вопрос выбора между Москвой и Карадагом. Ради сохранения станции он принимает решение остаться на Карадаге. В письмах А.Ф. Слудского к академику А.П. Павлову отражены мотивы такого непростого решения. Анализ архивных материалов раскрывает новые страницы в истории станции.

В связи со 160-летием со дня рождения Т.И. Вяземского представлены сведения о жизни замечательного человека, доктора медицины, приват-доцента Императорского Московского университета. Ученый, общественный деятель, библиофил, историк медицины, Т.И. Вяземский был одним из первых русских исследователей по изучению влияния слабых электрических токов на животные и растительные организмы. Он был одним из основателей «Кружка деятелей по борьбе со школьным алкоголизмом» и Противоалкогольного музея в Москве, одним из редакторов журнала «В борьбе за трезвость». Т.И. Вяземский составил обширную библиографию научных публикаций о влиянии алкоголя на человеческий организм, включающую 1153 работы, выступал с публичными лекциями о вреде алкоголизма. Им выполнены исследования по истории науки и образования в России (по истории Московского университета, биографии многих профессоров Московского университета). Т.И. Вяземским была собрана уникальная научная библиотека, насчитывающая около 40 000 томов. Результатом совместной деятельности Т.И. Вяземского с профессором Императорского Московского университета Л.З. Мороховцом стало строительство Карадагской научной станции в Крыму. В 1914 г. Карадагской научной станции было присвоено, а в 2015 г., после длительного перерыва, – возвращено имя ее создателя и первого заведующего Т.И. Вяземского.
К изучению фауны сколий (Hymenoptera, Scoliidae) Крымского полуострова
Authors: Шоренко К. И.
Published: October 2021

В статье дополнены сведения о распространении восьми видов ос-сколий обитающих на территории Крымского полуострова. Наибольшую численность и распространение в Крыму имеют виды M. maculata, C. quinquecincta, S. fuciformis. Группа с меньшей численностью включает S. hirta, S. sexmaculata и C. sexmaculata. Редкими для региона являются S. fallax, S. galbula и C. klugii. Последний вид, известный в Крыму всего по одной самке, отсутствует во вновь изученных сборах. Увеличение в сборах числа самцов относительно числа самок косвенно показывает на сроки спаривания. Для большинства крымских видов таковые приходятся на вторую и третью декады июля. В тоже время для S. fuciformis высокое число самцов относительно числа самок фиксировалась уже в июне, а для M. maculata в мае. Анализ многолетних сборов ос-сколий показал слабую изученность многих географических регионов полуострова в отношении сколиофауны. По нашему мнению изучение внутривидовой изменчивости и распространение видов открывает перспективы для дальнейших исследований ос-сколий в Крыму. Ключевые слова: Крым, фауна, Hymenoptera, Scoliidae, фенология.
К 100-летию выхода в свет первого выпуска Трудов Карадагской научной станции имени Т.И. Вяземского

Published: October 2021

В 2017 г. является дважды юбилейным: исполняется 100 лет с момента выхода в свет первого выпуска Трудов Карадагской научной станции им. Т.И. Вяземского и 160 лет со дня рождения основателя станции Т.И. Вяземского. Главным научным событием в истории станции стал выход первого выпуска Трудов Карадагской научной станции имени Т.И. Вяземского. Этим знаменательным событием завершился десятилетний (1907–1917) период становления станции (Михаленок, 2016). Ретроспективно возвращаясь к событиям того времени, 1917 г., можно узнать, как заведующий Карадагской научной станцией А.Ф. Слудский – ученик академика А.П. Павлова, был обеспокоен ситуацией с печатаньем Трудов станции. В апреле А.Ф. Слудский послал И.А. Каблукову «последнюю корректуру, и надеялся в мае получить готовый том» (Михаленок, 2016, с. 17). Долгое время А.Ф. Слудскому пришлось ждать добрых вестей, которые он наконец, получил от А.П. Павлова. В письме к А.П. Павлову от 09.10.1917 г. А.Ф. Слудский отмечал: «Ваши добрые вести меня просто потрясли… И из всех вестей, конечно, выше и ценнее всех – известие о выходе выпуска Трудов. Вы не можете представить себе, как я боялся за этот выпуск! Я ждал всего худшего: еще весной я слышал в типографии от заведующего типографией, что, вероятно, придется типографию закрыть. Если бы наш выпуск не вышел, то это был бы такой удар, последствия которого трудно учесть. Поэтому известие о выходе выпуска для меня звучит как самая радостная весть о спасении близкого человека… Только с этого момента существование Станции получает некоторый аргумент, который… имеет абсолютную ценность, как первый выявившийся результат десятилетних усилий по созданию станции. И я счастлив сейчас за Терентия Ивановича. Это начало его оправдания на суде истории» (Михаленок, 2016, с. 21).
Сравнительная оценка уровня стигматизации сельских и городских обучащихся как критерий неблагоприятного воздействия техногенного загрязнения

В статье представлены данные сравнительной оценки уровня стигматизации студентов, рожденных и выросших в городской и сельской местности. Установлены статистически значимые отличия как по частоте встречаемости малых аномалий развития у обследованных студентов, так и по уровню стигматизации. В частности, в группе городских обучающихся частота встречаемости малых аномалий развития составила 67.27%, у сельских – 52%. Средний уровень стигматизации в первой группе составил 3.71 ± 0.43, во второй – 2.10 ± 0.24 (р < 0.05). У обследованных студентов имели место отличия и по количеству выявленных дисгенезий. Так в группе городских студентов было обнаружено 34 вида малых аномалий развития, а в группе сельских – 28 видов соответственно. Наиболее распространенными дисгенезиями у городских студентов оказались аномалии конечностей, спины, ушей и зубов. Разновидности малых аномалий развития сельских обследуемых несколько отличались, так как в данной группе наиболее характерными оказались аномалии конечностей и зубов. Статистически значимые отличия показателей частоты встречаемости малых аномалий развития у городских и сельских обучающихся позволили прийти к заключению, что городская среда, отличающаяся более высоким уровнем техногенного загрязнения, оказывает выраженное неблагоприятное воздействие на перинатальный этап развития организма. Полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что время закладки и формирования структур опорно-двигательной системы является очень уязвимым периодом перинатального онтогенеза к негативному влиянию экзогенных факторов.
Этолого-акустические исследования белобочек (Delphinus delphis ponticus Barabasch-Nikiforov, 1935) в акваториях Юго- Восточного побережья Крыма

Работа посвящена исследованиям поведения и подводной акустической сигнализации белобочек в акваториях юго-восточного побережья Крыма. При обработке акустического материала были выделены все три категории характерных для дельфинов звуковых сигналов. По результатам систематизации и анализа тональных сигналов были идентифицированы 9 типов свистов, которые потенциально могут являться индивидуальными «автографами». Проведенные исследования показали, что совокупное применение визуальных и акустических методов наблюдения может существенно уточнить представление о численности, социальной структуре популяции и специфике поведенческой активности данного вида.

По данным астрономических эфемерид рассчитывались значения приходящей на верхнюю границу атмосферы Земли солнечной радиации. Проводилось сравнение значений суммарного баланса массы ледника Джанкуат с рассчитанными значениями солнечной радиации, приходящей на верхнюю границу атмосферы за год в северное полушарие, а также с разностью солнечной радиации, поступающей в экваториальную и полярную область северного полушария Земли (инсоляционной контрастностью). На основе рассчитанных значений приходящей солнечной радиации по уравнениям регрессии были рассчитаны значения суммарного баланса массы для ледника Джанкуат на период с 1850 по 2050 гг. Проведенное на основе корреляционного анализа сравнение показало, что тенденция сокращения массы льда ледника Джанкуат определяется эффектом усиления межширотного теплообмена, что подтверждается, во-первых, тесной отрицательной связью суммарного баланса массы с разностью солнечной радиации приходящей в экваториальную и полярную область северного полушария. Во-вторых, высокой отрицательной связью суммарного баланса массы с изменением продолжительности меридиональной южной циркуляции. Тенденция изменения массы ледника Джанкуат на продолжительных временных интервалах (десятки – первые сотни лет) определяется, главным образом, радиационным фактором. На менее продолжительных интервалах времени (годы – первые десятки лет) многолетняя тенденция существенно нарушается влиянием циркуляционных факторов.
