Published: August 2022

Abstract. There is evidence that the ozone layer has begun to recover owing to the ban on the production of halogen-containing ozone-depleting substances (hODS) accomplished by the Montreal Protocol and its Amendments (MPA). However, recent studies, while reporting an increase in tropospheric ozone and confirming the ozone recovery in the upper stratosphere, also indicate a continuing decline in the lower tropical and mid-latitudinal stratospheric ozone. While these are indications derived from observations, they are not reproduced by current global chemistry-climate models (CCMs), which show positive or near-zero trends for ozone in the lower stratosphere. This makes it difficult to robustly establish ozone recovery and has sparked debate about the ability of contemporary CCMs to simulate future ozone trends. We applied the new Earth system model SOCOLv4 to calculate long-term ozone trends and compare them with trends derived from observations and reanalyses. The analysis is performed separately for the ozone depletion [1985–1997] and the ozone recovery [1998–2018] periods. Within the 1998–2018 period, SOCOLv4 shows clear ozone recovery in the mesosphere, upper and middle stratosphere; no significant ozone trend in the extra-polar lower stratosphere; and a steady increase in the tropospheric ozone. However, the lower stratospheric ozone trends remain controversial because the reanalysis datasets and SOCOLv4 results suggest slightly negative but insignificant trends which do not agree with some observation composite analysis. The obtained pattern of ozone trends is in general agreement with observations and reanalysis data sets, confirming that modern chemistry-climate models such as SOCOLv4 are generally capable of simulating the observed ozone changes, justifying their use to project the future evolution of the ozone layer.

Published: August 2022

Abstract. Droughts are natural hazards that lead to severe impacts in the agricultural sector. Mountain regions are thought to have abundant water, but have experienced unprecedented drought conditions as climate change is affecting their environments more rapidly than other places. The effect radiates by reducing water availability well beyond the mountains’ geographical locations. This study aims to improve the understanding of agriculture’s vulnerability to drought in Europe’s pre-Alpine region, considering two case studies that have been severely impacted in the past. We applied a mixed-method approach combining the knowledge of regional experts with quantitative data analyses in order to define region-specific vulnerability based on experts’ identified factors. We implemented two aggregation methods by combining the vulnerability factors that could be supported with subregional data. Whereas the equal weighting method combines all factors with the same weight, the expert weighting method combines the factors with varying weight based on expert opinion. These two methods resulted in vulnerability maps with the expert weighting showing in general higher vulnerability, and partly relocating the medium and lower vulnerabilities to other subregions within the case study regions. In general, the experts confirmed the resulting subregions with higher vulnerability. They also acknowledged the value of mapping vulnerability by adopting different aggregation methods confirming that this can serve as a sensitivity analysis. The identified factors contributing most to the regions’ vulnerability point to the potential of adaptation strategies decreasing the agriculture’s vulnerability to drought that could enable better preparedness. Apart from region-specific differences, in both study regions the presence of irrigation infrastructure and soil texture are among the most important conditions that could be managed to some extent in order to decrease the regions’ vulnerability. Throughout the analyses, the study benefited from the exchange with the experts by getting an in-depth understanding of the regional context with feedback-relations between the factors contributing to vulnerability. Qualitative narratives provided during the semi-structured interviews supported a better characterization of local vulnerability conditions and helped to better identify quantitative indicators as proxies to describe the factors. Thus, we recommend to apply this mixed-method approach to close the gap between science and practitioners.

Published: August 2022

Abstract. Statistical bias correction (BC) is a widely used tool to post-process climate model biases for heat-stress impact studies, which are often based on indices calculated from multiple dependent variables. This study compares five bias correction methods (four univariate and one multivariate) with two applying strategies (direct and indirect) for correcting two heat-stress indices with different dependencies on temperature and relative humidity, using multiple Regional Climate Model simulations over South Korea. It would be helpful for reducing the ambiguity involved in the practical application of BC for climate modeling as well as end-user communities. Our results demonstrate that the multivariate approach can improve the corrected inter-variable dependence and therefore benefit the indirect correction of heat-stress indices that depend on the adjustment of individual components, especially those relying equally on multiple drivers. On the other hand, the direct correction of multivariate indices using the Quantile Delta Mapping univariate approach can also produce a comparable performance in the corrected heat-stress indices. However, our results also indicate that attention should be paid to the non-stationarity of bias brought by climate sensitivity in the modeled data, which may affect the bias-corrected results unsystematically. Careful interpretation of the correction process is required for an accurate heat-stress impact assessment.
A global terrestrial evapotranspiration product based on the three-temperature model with fewer input parameters and no calibration requirement

Published: August 2022

Abstract. Accurate global terrestrial evapotranspiration (ET)
estimation is essential to better understand Earth's energy and water
cycles. Although several global ET products exist, recent studies indicate
that ET estimates exhibit high uncertainty. With the increasing trend of
extreme climate hazards (e.g., droughts and heat waves), accurate ET
estimation under extreme conditions remains challenging. To overcome these
challenges, we used 3 h and 0.25∘ Global Land Data Assimilation
System (GLDAS) datasets (net radiation, land surface temperature (LST), and
air temperature) and a three-temperature (3T) model, without resistance and
parameter calibration, in global terrestrial ET product development. The
results demonstrated that the 3T model-based ET product agreed well with
both global eddy covariance (EC) observations at daily (root mean square
error (RMSE) = 1.1 mm d−1, N=294 058) and monthly (RMSE = 24.9 mm month−1, N=9632) scales and basin-scale water balance observations (RMSE = 116.0 mm yr−1, N=34). The 3T model-based global terrestrial
ET product was comparable to other common ET products, i.e., MOD16, P-LSH,
PML, GLEAM, GLDAS, and Fluxcom, retrieved from various models, but the 3T
model performed better under extreme weather conditions in croplands than
did the GLDAS, attaining 9.0 %–20 % RMSE reduction. The proposed daily and
0.25∘ ET product covering the period of 2001–2020 could provide periodic and large-scale information to support water-cycle-related studies.

Published: August 2022

Abstract. Increased attention directed at frozen soil hydrology has been prompted by climate change. In spite of an increasing number of field measurements and modeling studies, the impact of frozen soil on hydrological processes at the catchment scale is still unclear. However, frozen soil hydrology models have mostly been developed based on a bottom-up approach, i.e., by aggregating prior knowledge at the pixel scale, which is an approach notoriously suffering from equifinality and data scarcity. Therefore, in this study, we explore the impact of frozen soil at the catchment scale, following a top-down approach, implying the following sequence: expert-driven data analysis → qualitative perceptual model → quantitative conceptual model → testing of model realism. The complex mountainous Hulu catchment, northeast of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP), was selected as the study site. First, we diagnosed the impact of frozen soil on catchment hydrology, based on multi-source field observations, model discrepancy, and our expert knowledge. The following two new typical hydrograph properties were identified: the low runoff in the early thawing season (LRET) and the discontinuous baseflow recession (DBR). Second, we developed a perceptual frozen soil hydrological model to explain the LRET and DBR properties. Third, based on the perceptual model and a landscape-based modeling framework (FLEX-Topo), a semi-distributed conceptual frozen soil hydrological model (FLEX-Topo-FS) was developed. The results demonstrate that the FLEX-Topo-FS model can represent the effect of soil freeze–thaw processes on hydrologic connectivity and groundwater discharge and significantly improve hydrograph simulation, including the LRET and DBR events. Furthermore, its realism was confirmed by alternative multi-source and multi-scale observations, particularly the freezing and thawing front in the soil, the lower limit of permafrost, and the trends in groundwater level variation. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first report of LRET and DBR processes in a mountainous frozen soil catchment. The FLEX-Topo-FS model is a novel conceptual frozen soil hydrological model which represents these complex processes and has the potential for wider use in the vast QTP and other cold mountainous regions.
Improving model-satellite comparisons of sea ice melt onset with a satellite simulator
Authors: Smith Abigail , Jahn Alexandra , Burgard Clara , Notz Dirk
Published: August 2022

Abstract. Seasonal transitions in Arctic sea ice, such as the melt onset, have been found to be useful metrics for evaluating sea ice in climate models against observations. However, comparisons of melt onset dates between climate models and satellite observations are indirect. Satellite data products of melt onset rely on observed brightness temperatures, while climate models do not currently simulate brightness temperatures, and must therefore define melt onset with other modeled variables. Here we adapt a passive microwave sea ice satellite simulator, the Arctic Ocean Observation Operator (ARC3O), to produce simulated brightness temperatures that can be used to diagnose the timing of the earliest snowmelt in climate models, as we show here using Community Earth System Model version 2 (CESM2) ocean-ice hindcasts. By producing simulated brightness temperatures and earliest snowmelt estimation dates using CESM2 and ARC3O, we facilitate new and previously impossible comparisons between the model and satellite observations by removing the uncertainty that arises due to definition differences. Direct comparisons between the model and satellite data allow us to identify an early bias across large areas of the Arctic at the beginning of the CESM2 ocean-ice hindcast melt season, as well as improve our understanding of the physical processes underlying seasonal changes in brightness temperatures. In particular, the ARC3O allows us to show that satellite algorithm-based melt onset dates likely occur after significant snowmelt has already taken place.
Exploring Place-Based Education While Reflecting on My Own Place Growing Up in West Virginia
Authors: Arthur Megan
Published: August 2022

Place-based education (PBE) will be explored while weaving in my own experiences with place growing up in West Virginia surrounded by the coal industry. PBE is a teaching method that provides meaningful instruction for students by transforming their community or place into their classroom. PBE can teach students how to truly inhabit their places and become contributing citizens by helping their communities or places improve and eradicate any prevalent issues. The coal industry is still predominant in West Virginia even though it continues to bring destruction to the land and controversy among the residents. The coal industry was a prime example for PBE focus while I was student in K-12 schools in West Virginia, and I will present information for why it should continue to be a focus for PBE.

Published: August 2022

Re-expansion pulmonary edema rarely complicates thoracic drainage. The diagnosis of this pathology is radiological and clinical and must be noted in the event of any respiratory distress following pleural drainage. A 70-year-old patient was admitted to the operating room for a pleurectomy with surgical removal of an emphysema bubble after the failure of 02 pneumothorax drainage attempts. The immediate post-operative consequences were marked by the occurrence of re-expansion edema, which motivated the transfer of the patient to the intensive care unit for ventilatory support. The evolution was favorable due to the early recognition of the radioclinical presentation.

Pharmaceutical drug is a chemical substance which is used to maintain growth, cure, treat, prevent and diagnose a disease. Up to the middle of the nineteenth century, man had access to a wide range of natural remedies to ease his suffering. As part of pharmacodynamics, we consider both drug activity and drug effect, which refers to the first effects of therapeutic receptor contact and the effects that follow. Infections are a leading cause of mortality in the underdeveloped nations. This is primarily owing to the advent of emerging infectious agents, more particularly the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Drug resistance or Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), progresses when microbes, including parasites i.e viruses, bacteria and fungi no longer effective against a drug that formerly treated them effectually. Clinicians will benefit from a better grasp of the processes of antibiotic resistance when it comes to prescribing antibiotic.  As a result of this review, researchers are encouraged to apply gene manipulation, increased usage of stem cells (adult and embryonic), and improve bioavailability of nutrients utilizing nanotechnology in order to overcome the negative effects of pharmaceutical medications.

A estética facial pode ser gravemente afetada pelas características dos tecidos que compõem o periodonto. A toxina botulínica do tipo A é amplamente utilizada na odontologia como uma opção terapêutica no tratamento do sorriso gengival. Sua ação têm-se mostrado eficiente não apenas na correção da hiperfunção do lábio superior, como também na melhora da qualidade de vida social e psicológica do paciente. A arquitetura gengival associada a defeitos ósseos e a perda de suporte periodontal podem resultar em uma alteração no contorno da margem gengival, apicalização dos níveis e perda da papilas nas áreas interproximais. O uso da toxina botulínica em pacientes que apresentam defeitos estéticos periodontais que não podem ser corrigidos pode ser considerado como uma opção de tratamento para os periodontistas na finalização de seus casos. O objetivo deste estudo é realizar uma revisão de literatura sobre a utilização da toxina botulínica na contenção da elevação do lábio superior, para a correção do sorriso gengival e na minimização do aparecimento de defeitos estéticos causados pela perda de suporte periodontal.

O uso da mecanização otimiza tarefas, porém pode expor os operadores a agentes de riscos ocupacionais, podendo comprometer sua saúde auditiva. O presente estudo, objetivou realizar ensaio do nível de ruído no posto de operação de um trator cafeeiro com implemento derriçadora em condição estática. A coleta de dados foi realizada em um talhão de café do IFSULDEMINAS – Campus Muzambinho, sendo conduzido em delineamento inteiramente casualizado (DIC) (2x5) combinando-se trator com e sem o acionamento da derriçadora e 5 diferentes rotações. Os níveis de ruído foram obtidos por meio de um sonômetro, CB-851, configurado de acordo com as diretrizes da NR 15 e com resultados expressos em dB (A). Os resultados mostraram interação significativa entre os fatores de estudo (p<0,05). Os valores encontrados ficaram acima do nível de ação - NA (80 dB(A)) e do limite de exposição - LE (85 dB(A)) para todas as condições, exceto para o trator sem implemento na rotação de 1100 rpm (NA<84,1<LE). Os maiores valores de ruído foram quantificados para o conjunto T+D quando comparados a T em todas as rotações. Portanto, o estudo sugere que em condições normais de trabalho, são esperados níveis de ruído acima do NA e LE.

The purpose of this scoping review was to present the published successful techniques and strategies for biomimetic remineralization of human dentin. Studies whose primary objective was to present the strategy of successful dentin biomimetic remineralization were included. No language, participant age, or time restrictions were set. Stud-ies were retrieved via CENTRAL, LILACS, PubMed/MEDLINE, SciELO, SCOPUS and Web of Science. Gray literature searches on Google Scholar and OpenGrey were also conducted to find additional references. Based on the main research objectives, articles were classified by technique according to the methodology used for the research. One hundred forty-five articles, published be-tween 2003 and 2019, were included in the final scoping review. Protocols that imitate dentin's natural mineralization seek to restore lost minerals in dental tissues. Biomimetic remineralization proposes different ways to replace demineralized collagen in dentin by using inorganic materials like natural minerals, with the primary purpose of optimizing the clinical longevity of restorations and improving dental treatment.

Mental retardation is a university problem prevalent in every country, race, caste, and creed. Mental retardation is not only a medical problem but also educational, psychological and social problem. The present study deals with the comparison of social problems of mentally retarded children (MRC) of below poverty line parents (BPL) and above poverty line parents (APL). The proposed study considered five social problems faced by the mentally retarded children via referring MRC as mad, pummeling them, confining them in a room, other people instigating bad habits into them and having no opportunity to mix in society. Also the objective of this investigating was to find whether there is any significant impact of poverty over the MRC while facing these problems. For this study 340 mentally retarded children of special schools and their parents were interviewed by providing interview schedule. Statistical analysis of the data was carried out and tests of significance were used. It is observed that the social problems via. Referring MRC as made is the most grave problem faced by MRC whereas the social problem-other people instigate bad habits to MRC- is a least intensive social problem.

Background; Neural tube defects, the commonest central nervous system congenital anomalies, are a heterogeneous group of malformations resulting from failure of normal neural tube closure. Aim and objectives; to assess the potential value of combined maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein and ultrasound markers at 11-13weeks of gestation in early screening for fetal neural tube defects in comparison to the standard second trimester screening of neural tube defects.  Subjects and methods; This prospective study will be conducted at the Prenatal Diagnosis and Fetal Medicine Department – National Research Centre and Obstetrics and Gynecology Department in Kasr Al Ainy Teaching Hospital. Result; Number of patients with MSAFP ≥ 2.0 MoM in the study population was 50 (25%). Number of patients with MSAFP < 2.0 MoM in the study population was 150 (75%). Conclusion; Combined maternal serum alpha-fetoprotein and ultrasound markers at 11-13 weeks of gestation can be used as early screening for fetal neural tube defects as well as the standard second trimester screening of neural tube defects, the second trimester ultrasound is more sensitive than that of the first trimester for the diagnoses of neural tube defects.

Although industries are showing a substantial progress in controlling occupational hazards, health and safety, recurrences of accidents and industrial disasters have caused studies related to enhancing the emergency responses and safety capability assessments across industries. This study emphasises primarily for the need for an increased attention associated with human factors and its association with organizational policies and practices in occupational safety and health management (OSHM) and the study furthermore proposes an effective approach for analysing its effects with goal for addressing on reinforcing the industrial safety protocols and regulations with regards to hazards assessment. The present study addresses on key concerns attributing on whether the present industrial policies, objectives, protocols, critical communication, safety culture, training and competency development programmes and facilities and services within the industry are in correlation with OSHM standards as it is pivotal for the safety department and improving standard protocol for further strengthening, coordinating and collectively monitoring the execution of all the actions intended to deal with an industrial accident and its impacts. The findings from the rendered cross-sectional regression data from the series of sessions were explored over the course of the study investigation.

This study was aimed to estimate the prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection and associated risk factors among patients in Al-Najaf Province and to investigate whether there is a relationship between this infection and (MDA). A total of 117 blood samples were collected from Iraqi women with toxoplasmosis at Al-Zahra Teaching Hospital for Maternity and Children in AL-Najaf province. The PCR test was carried out in the Advanced Research Laboratory of the Department of Laboratory Investigations / Faculty of Science – University of Kufa. The estimation of MDA marker level in patients and 30 healthy women (control group) was conducted in Al-Ameen Center for Research and Advanced Biotechnology/ Imam Ali Holy Shrine. The results of the PCR (to confirm the toxoplasmosis infection) had shown that 53(45.30%) patients were found positive and 64 (54.70%) were negative. The results of biochemical study showed that the concentrations of MDA level were increased in toxoplasmosis patients compared with the controls. The results of this study highlight on the wide spread of Toxoplasmosis in Iraq, especially in Najaf Governorate. The use of molecular methods to diagnose toxoplasmosis remains the most accurate technique for diagnosing infection.

Cisplatin is cancer chemotherapeutic agent that used in treatment of many types of solid cancers. However, cisplatin administration showed adverse effects including multi-organs toxicity including nephrotoxicity. Garlic is an anti-carcinogenic, antioxidant, anti-diabetic, Reno protective, anti-atherosclerotic, antibacterial, antifungal, and antihypertensive agent. Therefore, present study was conducted to investigate preventive effect of garlic powder on Cisplatin induced nephrotoxicity in male Wister rats. Twenty-one male Wister rats were assigned into three groups namely, C (as control negative group), CP (control positive) received two i.p injection of cisplatin at dose of 8 mg/kg and G-CP received two i.p injection of cisplatin at dose of 8 mg/kg and fed with 10% garlic powder diet. Serum samples were collected and kidney function parameters including creatinine, urea and uric acid levels were measured using colorimetric kits for these parameters. creatinine results showed a significant increasing in CP group rats compared with G-CP group. Urea results showed a significant increasing in CP group rats compared with G-CP group. Also, uric acid results showed a significant increasing in CP group rats compared with G-CP group. In conclusion, rats that fed with 10% garlic powder diet reduced nephrotoxicity that induced by Cisplatin.
