Published: October 2022

Abstract. We developed a high-quality global Integrated Water Vapour (IWV) dataset from 12,552 ground-based Global Positioning System (GPS) stations in 2020. It consists of 5-min GPS IWV estimates with a total number of 1,093,591,492 datapoints. The completeness rates of the IWV estimates are higher than 95 % at 7253 (58 %) stations. The dataset is an enhanced version of the existing operational GPS IWV dataset provided by Nevada Geodetic Laboratory (NGL). The enhancement is reached by employing accurate meteorological information from the fifth generation of European ReAnalysis (ERA5) for the GPS IWV retrieval with a significantly higher spatiotemporal resolution. A dedicated data screening algorithm is also implemented. The GPS IWV dataset has a good agreement with in-situ radiosonde observations at 182 collocated stations worldwide. The IWV biases are within ±3.0 kg m-2 with a Mean Absolute Bias (MAB) value of 0.69 kg m-2. The standard deviations (SD) of IWV differences are no larger than 3.4 kg m-2. In addition, the enhanced IWV product shows substantial improvements compared to NGL’s operational version, and it is thus recommended for high-accuracy applications, such as research of extreme weather events and diurnal variations of IWV, and intercomparisons with other IWV retrieval techniques. Taking the radiosonde-derived IWV as reference, the MAB and SD of IWV differences are reduced by 19.5 % and 6.2 % on average, respectively. The number of unrealistic negative GPS IWV estimates are also substantially reduced by 92.4 % owing to the accurate Zenith Hydrostatic Delay (ZHD) derived by ERA5. The dataset is available at: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6973528 (Yuan et al., 2022).
Review article: Current State of Deep Learning Application to Water-related Disaster Management in Developing Countries
Authors: Kareem Kola Yusuff , Seong Yeonjeong , Bastola Shiksha , Jung Younghun
Published: October 2022

Abstract. Availability of abundant water resources data is a great concern hindering adoption of deep learning techniques (DL) for disaster mitigation in developing countries. However, over the last three decades, a sizeable amount of DL publication in disaster management emanated mostly from developed countries with efficient data management systems. To understand the current state of DL adoption for solving water-related disaster problems in developing countries, an extensive bibliometric review coupled with a theory-based analysis of related research documents is conducted from 1993–2022 using Web of Science, Scopus, VOSviewer software and PRISMA model schema. Results revealed a ‘slightly’ increasing trend of DL-based water disaster publication in developing countries (tau = 0.35, p = 0.00045, Sen-slope, s = 0.00 at confidence level of 95 %), as opposed to the ‘significantly’ increasing trend globally (tau = 0.910, p = 1.72 e-12, Sen-slope, s = 2.52 at confidence level of 95 %). Also, pluvio-fluvial flooding is found to constitute 78 % most disaster prevalence and China is the only ‘high human development’ developing country with an impressive 51 % DL adoption rate, due to China’s increasing need for AI-based solutions to persistent multiyear severe water stress, climate change, environmental degradation, recurrent flood, and saltwater intrusion into estuaries. COVID-19 among other factors is identified as a driver of DL adoption. Further analysis indicates that developing countries will experience implementation delay based on their low Human Development Indices (HDI) because model deployment in solving disaster problems in real life scenarios is currently lacking due to high cost. Therefore, data augmentation, transfer learning, intensive research, deployment using cheap web-based servers and APIs are recommended to enhance disaster preparedness. Developing countries can explore these solutions to foster inclusion in global DL-based disaster mitigation approaches.

Abstract. The International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) conducted a series of expeditions between 2013 and 2016 that were designed to address the
development of monsoon climate systems in Asia and Australia. Significant
progress was made in recovering Neogene sections spanning the region from
the Arabian Sea to the Sea of Japan and southward to western Australia. High
recovery by advanced piston corer (APC) has provided a host of
semi-continuous sections that have been used to examine monsoonal evolution. Use of the half-length APC was successful in sampling sand-rich sediment in Indian Ocean submarine fans. The records show that humidity and seasonality developed diachronously across the region, although most regions show drying since the middle Miocene and especially since ∼ 4 Ma, likely linked to global cooling. A transition from C3 to C4 vegetation often
accompanied the drying but may be more linked to global cooling. Western
Australia and possibly southern China diverge from the general trend in
becoming wetter during the late Miocene, with the Australian monsoon being
more affected by the Indonesian Throughflow, while the Asian monsoon is tied more to the rising Himalaya in South Asia and to the Tibetan Plateau in East Asia. The monsoon shows sensitivity to orbital forcing, with many regions having a weaker summer monsoon during times of northern hemispheric
Glaciation. Stronger monsoons are associated with faster continental
erosion but not weathering intensity, which either shows no trend or
a decreasing strength since the middle Miocene in Asia. Marine productivity
proxies and terrestrial chemical weathering, erosion, and vegetation proxies
are often seen to diverge. Future work on the almost unknown Paleogene is
needed, as well as the potential of carbonate platforms as archives of
paleoceanographic conditions.
Drilling Overdeepened Alpine Valleys (ICDP-DOVE): quantifying the age, extent, and environmental impact of Alpine glaciations

Published: October 2022

Abstract. The sedimentary infill of glacially overdeepened valleys
(i.e., structures eroded below the fluvial base level) is an excellent but
yet underexplored archive with regard to the age, extent, and nature of past glaciations. The ICDP project DOVE (Drilling Overdeepened Alpine Valleys) Phase 1 investigates a series of drill cores from glacially overdeepened troughs at several locations along the northern front of the Alps. All sites
will be investigated with regard to several aspects of environmental
dynamics during the Quaternary, with focus on the glaciation, vegetation,
and landscape history. Geophysical methods (e.g., seismic surveys), for
example, will explore the geometry of overdeepened structures to better
understand the process of overdeepening. Sedimentological analyses combined
with downhole logging, analysis of biological remains, and state-of-the-art
geochronological methods, will enable us to reconstruct the erosion and
sedimentation history of the overdeepened troughs. This approach is expected
to yield significant novel data quantifying the extent and timing of Middle
and Late Pleistocene glaciations of the Alps. In a first phase, two sites
were drilled in late 2021 into filled overdeepenings below the
paleolobe of the Rhine Glacier, and both recovered a trough filling composed
of multiphase glacial sequences. Fully cored Hole 5068_1_C reached a depth of 165 m and recovered 10 m molasse bedrock at the base. This hole will be used together with two flush holes (5068_1_A, 5068_1_B) for further geophysical cross-well experiments. Site 5068_2 reached a depth of 255 m
and bottomed out near the soft rock–bedrock contact. These two sites are
complemented by three legacy drill sites that previously recovered filled
overdeepenings below the more eastern Alpine Isar-Loisach, Salzach, and Traun paleoglacier lobes (5068_3, 5068_4, 5068_5). All analysis and
interpretations of this DOVE Phase 1 will eventually lay the ground for an
upcoming Phase 2 that will complete the pan-Alpine approach. This follow-up
phase will investigate overdeepenings formerly occupied by paleoglacier
lobes from the western and southern Alpine margins through drilling sites in France, Italy, and Slovenia. Available geological information and
infrastructure make the Alps an ideal area to study overdeepened structures;
however, the expected results of this study will not be restricted to the
Alps. Such features are also known from other formerly glaciated mountain
ranges, which are less studied than the Alps and more problematic with
regards to drilling logistics. The results of this study will serve as
textbook concepts to understand a full range of geological processes
relevant to formerly glaciated areas all over our planet.
Enhanced mechanical properties of polymeric materials by dding graphene oxide
Authors:   , Guo Yangyang
Published: October 2022

This work is the first attempt to study the structure-property relationship at a nanoscale between PVP polymer and GO platelets. Experimental and analytical results have shown that both the bulk polymer mixture and the nanofibers exhibit improved mechanical properties after the addition of GO platelets: the concentration of GO appears to have more prominent effect than the size. The results have provided critical information to produce new super-elastic materials, with applications in medicine, for the development of artificial tendons and ligaments.

In this thesis, the principal focus is the rational design and fabrication of two-dimensional (2D) nanoarchitectures, e.g., low-cost metal oxide nanosheets and earth-abundant transition metal layered double hydroxides (LDHs) for enhanced electrocatalysis. The related hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance not only demonstrated the advances of 2D nanomaterials, such as unique physical and mechanical properties, unprecedented electronic features, and ultrahigh surface areas but also indicated the possible mechanisms behind boosted activity and stability, e.g., phase engineering function and oxygen vacancies influence.
Examining how attention and prediction modulate visual perception: A predictive coding view
Authors:   , Baker Kristen
Published: October 2022

This thesis investigated the relationship between prediction and attention in visual perception by recording electrophysiological brain responses. Visual paradigms were implemented using various manipulations of stimuli (shapes, neutral faces, and emotional faces), types of attention (spatial, featural, and emotion-guided), and prior precision of spatial location (low and high). This thesis found that during the early stages of visual processing prediction error signalling consistently occurs, with information then diverging into the associated brain regions for further processing for information updating. This thesis demonstrates that prediction and attention both interact and dissociate in the brain in distinct stages during visual perception.

QUALITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF A SEQUENCE OF “ALLEGRO” IN CLASSICAL BALLET DANCERS WITH DIFFERENT TECHNICAL LEVEL
Authors: Mannacio Elena , Ripani Maurizio , Ciccarelli Antonello , Poggini Laura , Tessitore Antonio
Published: October 2022

Since training of professional classical ballet dancers is primarily focused on the aesthetic component of performance there is a necessity to assess its qualitative aspects. This study aimed to investigate whether the Performance Competence Evaluation Measure (PCEM) adapted version for classical ballet can be a valid and useful tool: 1) to assess the performance of an “Allegro” sequence; 2) to discriminate between different levels of dancers’ experience. Twenty-four female classical ballet dancers divided in two subgroups [Ballet students (n = 12) and Pre-professional dancers (n = 12)] were recruited to perform a 70 seconds sequence of “Allegro” specifically choreographed. Each performance was assessed by three very experienced judges, which scores were based on a Likert scale (ranging from 1 to 5) to evaluate the following four parameters: 1) Full Body Involvement (FBI); 2) Body Integration and Connectedness (BIC); 3) Articulation of Body Segments (ABS); 4) Movement Skills (MS). The inter-rater reliability values were ranging from good (between 0.6 and 0.8) and very good (over 0.8) for all parameters, while the test-retest reliability showed a very good agreement for all parameters. The Allegro is a dance sequence with greater dynamism that better highlights differences of execution between dancers with different technical levels and the Mann-Whitney test showed significant differences for all parameters (P=0.001) with lower values for the ballet students. In conclusion, the PCEM adapted version for classical ballet showed to be a valid tool: 1) to assess the performance of Allegro; 2) to discriminate between different dancers’ level of experience.

THE ECONOMIC PAMPHLETEER: The challenge: Making good food accessible
Authors: Ikerd John
Published: October 2022

In a previous column, I made the case that enough wholesome, nutritious, and sustainably produced food is affordable for everyone (Ikerd, 2022). However, the fact that good food is afford­able for everyone doesn’t mean good food is accessible to everyone or easy to locate, acquire, and prepare. For many, accessibility is a greater obstacle than affordability, and those who face the greatest challenges of affordability also face the greatest challenges in accessibility. As I pointed out in my previous column, farmers receive an average of only about 14% or US$1,120 of a typical US$8,000 household food budget. The rest, US$6,880, goes to pay the costs of processing, packaging, transportation, advertis­ing, and other marketing costs (Ikerd, 2022, p. 3). Some of these marketing costs are necessary to transform farm commodities into finished food products and thus cannot be avoided. . . .

Published: October 2022

It gives me immense pleasure to write editorial for the Journal of Indo-Pacific Academy of Forensic Odontology and would like to thanks editor in chief Dr. Pradhuman Verma for giving me this opportunity. Our biggest concern is Dental identification has been a vital tool for identifying deceased individuals since 66 AD.[1] It has received international praise as a field that empowers people to use science in judicial procedures. Currently, a lack of trained professionals, a lack of training facilities, and a lack of exposure to the subject during undergraduate years are the biggest road blocks to expanding the application of forensic odontology for the benefit of society. Despite the fact that the Indian Dental Association recommends that an individual's dental records (radiographs, models, photographs, and clinical correspondence) be securely kept for at least 5-6 years, the practices has yet to be implemented in all dental fields across India.[2]

The knowledge 8 technology lies all around us and in fact in our hands. Information is readily available 8people are well aware of their rights. During the graduation years, dentists are taught about the “CODE OF ETHICS”, which is the ultimate guide for dentists to serve their profession best. Gradually, as we become busy polishing our skills 8 performing our functions, we often forget about our legal responsibilities, duties and also about our rights as doctors and to up grade our knowledge about the legal systems of our country. In today's scenario with increasing crime rates against doctors, updating ourselves with legal systems is a must to protect ourselves from unnecessary threats and allegations. With the SARS COVID-19 outbreak, Tele- Dentistry has also been a choice of dentists in India. Also, because the services provided by a dentist come under Consumer Protection Act (CPA), having sound knowledge is important to meet the standards. This paper aimed to provide basic knowledge about the duties, responsibilities, and common laws which can be encountered during the day-to-day clinical practice8 research, not only to provide their best services but also to protect them from being convicted from false allegations.

Teeth are often used as weapons when one person attacks another or when a victim tries to ward off an assailant. It is relatively simple to record the evidence from the injury and the teeth for comparison of the shapes, sizes and pattern that are present. However, this comparative analysis is often very difficult, especially since human skin is curved, elastic, distortable and undergoing edema. In many cases, though, conclusions can be reached about any role a suspect may have played in a crime. Additionally, traces of saliva deposited during biting can be recovered to acquire DNA evidence and this can be analyzed to determine who contributed this biological evidence. If dentists are aware of the various methods to collect and preserve bitemark evidence from victims and suspects, it may be possible for them to assist the justice system to identify and prosecute violent offenders. This paper reviews the recognition and recovery of this evidence and provides insight into modern methods used to investigate bitemark evidence from heinous crimes.

Background: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. About 71 million people around the world are chronically infected with HCV, however, in Pakistan, approximately 12 million people are suffering from this dreadful virus. In Pakistan, approximately 6.2 % of population is infected with HCV and its treatment rate is approximately 1 %. The aim of this research was to assess thyroid hormones level in chronic HCV patients which were taking the oral-antiviral therapy. Methods: A total of 1650 suspects were screened by immunochromatographic technique. Then ELISA technique were used to confirmed the sample and PCR were also performed. All data were analyzed through Microsoft Excel and SPSS-21. Results: Out of total ICT positive, 117 patients were positive for HCV. Subsequently, all positive samples were exposed to Enzyme linked Immunosorbant assay, out of 117 tested samples 112 (6.7 %) were found positive. However, the final confirmation was done by using Real Time PCR, which showed 109 (6.6 %) patients positive for HCV. Among these 109 HCV patients, the age-wise prevalence of HCV patients was observed maximum 35 (32 %) in age group (55-74 years). Furthermore, these 109 patients were tested for the thyroid dysfunction, before and after anti-viral therapy (Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir therapy) which was recommended by World Health Organization. Out of 109 HCV positive patients the frequency, 92 (84.6 %) showed euthyroidism, 6 (5.5 %) hypothyroidism and 11 (10 %) hyperthyroidism. Thyroid dysfunction was high (n=17, 15.6 %) in patients with age above 50 years. Six (35.2 %) of thyroid dysfunction patients revealed hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism was observed in 11 (64.7 %) patients. Mean values of thyroid function test before antiviral therapy were TSH = 3.88 ± 1.0, TT3 = 1.15 ± 0.58, and TT4 = 7.7 ± 01.99 and mean values after three months therapy were TSH = 2.49±1.72, TT3 =1.38 ± 0.69 and TT4 = 8.78 ± 2.29. Conclusion: It is concluded that HCV infected individuals on oral antiviral drugs have an effect on the thyroid gland, therefore, HCV patients should be frequently screened for thyroid disorders before and after treatment to ensure euthyroid status.

Background: The kidneys filtration waste and excess water from your blood as urine. CKD when the GFR of the patient less than 15ml/min. ESKD is the final stage of CKD. HD is a common renal replacement therapy for ESRD patients. CKD may have many effects on nervous system and manifest as headache, seizure and DDS etc. Seizure is one of the complication of HD. Seizures are changes in the brain’s electrical activity. The study was conducted to assess the occurrence of seizure in hemodialysis patient and to analyze the possible causes of seizure in renal failure patient during hemodialysis. Methods and Materials: In this cross-sectional study, collected 202 samples for assessing the causes of seizures in patients on HD. In this study the selected ESRD patients with different types of seizures and causes which leads to HAS. To evaluate the occurrence of seizures in hemodialysis patients, individuals were thoroughly examined. Results: Among total of 202 hemodialysis patients, 16 patients were found suffered with seizures. Out of 16 patients, 14 patients were agreed to participate in the current study. The finding of this study showed that there are many causes of HAS but some are the most shown in this study. This study revealed that hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia (hyperparathyroidism), uremic encephalopathy, hyponatremia and use of erythropoietin for the cure of anemia in the dialysis patients are the most common causes of seizures seen. Conclusion: Some neurologic manifestations such as seizure, headache and developmental delay in patients with ESRD are seen. HAS is an important complication of HD. Moreover, treated properly in these cases for decrease of morbidity and mortality and there treatment should be told to medical professionals. Keywords: Hemodialysis, ESRD, Incidence, Seizures

The study was conducted on Al-Khosur River basin passing through the city of Mosul from the waterfalls region to its confluence with Tigris River at the Old Bridge. Six sites were selected along the river. Water and sediment samples were collected from there. The study was carried out at the laboratories of Mosul University, through the period from September 2021 A.D. to May 2022 A.D. The concentrations of heavy metals (lead, cadmium and zinc), in water and sediment were measured quarterly. The results indicated that the heavy metals in the water had the highest concentrations in the fourth site in three elements Pb, Cd and Zn, which amounted to (0.64, 0.62 and 0.49) mg/L, respectively. This can be attributed to the bad quality of the civilian subtractions and estuaries discharged in the river which contain high concentration of heavy metals. The results also indicated high rates of heavy metals in the sediments at the fourth site as it reached the concentration of (3.18, 0.92 and 2.85) mg/kg, for Pb, Cd and Zn, respectively. The concentrations of heavy metals in the sediments increased four times for lead and zinc and two times for cadmium due to the increment in water and the contact period between water and sediment due to undecomposition for heavy metals.
