A Comparison of the Diurnal Variation in Lake Surface Temperature for the Five Major Lakes of the Savannah River Basin
Authors: Hodges Jonathan , Saylor J. R. , Kaye Nigel
Published: March 2020

Satellite measurements of lake surface temperature can benefit several environmental applications such as estimation of lake evaporation, predictions of lake overturning, and meteorological forecasts. Using a one-dimensional lake simulation that incorporates satellite measurements of lake surface temperature, the average diurnal variation in lake surface temperature was obtained. The satellite measurements were obtained from the MODIS instrument aboard the Aqua and Terra satellites. Herein the functional form for the diurnal variation in surface temperature is presented for each of the five major lakes in the Savannah River Basin, which are located in South Carolina and Georgia: Lakes Jocassee, Keowee, Hartwell, Russell, and Thurmond. Differences in the diurnal variation in surface temperature between each of these lakes are identified and potential explanations for these differences are presented.
Long-Term Ecohydrologic Monitoring: A Case Study from the Santee Experimental Forest, South Carolina
Authors: Amatya Devendra M. , Trettin Carl C.
Published: March 2020

Long-term research on gauged watersheds within the USDA Forest Service’s Experimental Forest and Range (EFR) network has contributed substantially to our understanding of relationships among forests, water, and hydrologic processes and watershed management, yet there is only limited information from coastal forests. This article summarizes key findings from hydrology and water-quality studies based on long-term monitoring on first-, second-, and third-order watersheds on the Santee Experimental Forest, which are a part of the headwaters of the east branch of the Cooper River that drains into the harbor of Charleston, South Carolina. The watersheds are representative forest ecosystems that are characteristic of the low-gradient Atlantic Coastal Plain. The long-term (35-year) water balance shows an average annual runoff of 22% of the precipitation and an estimated 75% for the evapotranspiration (ET), leaving the balance to groundwater. Non-growing season prescribed fire, an operational management practice, shows no effects on streamflow and nutrient export. The long-term records were fundamental to understanding the effects of Hurricane Hugo in 1989 on the water balance of the paired watersheds that were related to vegetation damage by Hugo and post-Hugo responses of vegetation. The long-term precipitation records showed that the frequency of large rainfall events has increased over the last two decades. Although there was an increase in air temperature, there was no effect of that increase on annual streamflow and water table depths. The long-term watershed records provide information needed to improve design, planning, and assessment methods and tools used for addressing the potential impacts of hydrologic responses on extreme events; risk and vulnerability assessments of land use; and climate and forest disturbance on hydrology, ecology, biogeochemistry, and water supply.

Published: March 2020

Economic development, environmental protection, and public health are critical quality-of-life issues that depend on a reliable supply of water. Increased water demand and climate variability (drought) are two major factors that have the potential to limit future water availability in the state of South Carolina. The development of a comprehensive water-resources management plan for the state is vital for ensuring that an adequate and reliable supply of water will be available to sustain all future uses. The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) is tasked legislatively with developing water planning and policy initiatives in the state and has initiated a long-term process to update the state water plan, last published in 2004. One of the major recommendations in the 2004 plan was to form River Basin Councils (RBCs) in each of the major river basins in the state for the purpose of water planning. In 2014, SCDNR initiated a multiyear process to develop regional water plans that will serve as the foundation for a new state water plan. A central component of the process was the creation of a Planning Process Advisory Committee (PPAC) for the purpose of developing formal guidelines on the formation of RBCs and the development of river basin plans for the eight designated river basins in the state. The PPAC is composed of a diverse group of stakeholders and includes representation from water utilities, energy utilities, trade organizations, academia, conservation groups, agriculture, and the general public. The work of the PPAC culminated in a report, the South Carolina State Water Planning Framework, which was published in October of 2019. The river basin plans will identify current and future water availability issues and describe a management plan to address these issues to ensure that an adequate and reliable supply of water will be available for future generations. The purpose of this paper is to provide a general overview of the state’s river basin planning process.

Published: March 2020

Background: Vietnam is entering the stage of aging population; as a result, the quality of life (QOL) of the elderly is really a matter of concern. There is a great deal of research on the quality of life of the elderly while Vietnam witnesses a lack of research on this topic, especially on how physical and social activities have impact on QOL of the elderly.
Objectives: (1) To describe the situation of participation in physical, social activities and QOL of the elderly residing in Truong An Ward, Hue city. (2) To examine the association between physical, social activities and QOL among participants. Methodology: This study used cross-sectional study design. A total sample of 420 people aged 60 and above in Truong An Ward, Hue city were interviewd. The SF36 was used to measure the QOL of participants.
Results: Percentage of the elderly taking part in physical activity were 66%. 49% reported having the habit of taking part in social activities. The majority of the elderly get their QOL level in three health fields, namely physical, mental and general health at above average. (56.0, 60.7 and 60.8 respectively). There were significant associations between physical activities, social activities and QOL among participants.
Conclusion: The percentage of the elderly taking part in physical and social activities were still low. Besides, QOL of the elderly at the research location was not really high. It’s important to encourage the elderly taking part in physical and social activities to improve their quality of life.

Key words: Physical activities, social activities, QOL, the elderly

СУЧАСНІ КОНЦЕПТУАЛЬНІ ПОГЛЯДИ НА РОЗВИТОК СІЛЬСЬКИХ ПЕРИФЕРІЙНИХ ТЕРИТОРІЙ У ГАЛУЗІ ПРОСТОРОВОГО ПЛАНУВАННЯ
Authors: Dunayev I.V. , Меlnychenko O.A.
Published: March 2020

У статті пропонується критичне осмислення сучасних західних концептуальних уявлень про розвиток сільських і периферійних територій Європи крізь призму соціально-конструктивістської позиції. Такий погляд дозволяє відійти від традиційного сприйняття розвитку територій через економічні показники (традиційний нормативний підхід) і побачити більше можливостей, заснованих на неекономічних цінностях, для сільських і віддалених територій. З урахуванням цього пропонується критичний огляд від пануючих уявлень про ядрові та периферійні території до альтернативних підходів до розвитку в периферійних районах, що підтверджує думку про “мислення поза ростом”. Вважаємо такий підхід корисним і своєчасним для сучасної України на етапі багаторівневого формування стратегій просторового розвитку і зміни з 2020 р. ролі уряду в регіональній політиці на надання гарантованих державою послуг.

Lo visual en la investigación sobre medios y migraciones
Authors: Balsas María Soledad
Published: March 2020

En este trabajo propongo una reflexión sobre lo visual en el ámbito de los estudios sobre medios de comunicación y migraciones internacionales en la Argentina. Reviso algunas de las publicaciones realizadas en los últimos años dentro de este campo con la doble intención de i) contribuir a un estado de la cuestión y ii) hacer explícita la necesidad de ampliar las posibilidades de lo visual en un ámbito –el de las migraciones- en el que la performatividad de las imágenes parece ser incuestionable. El recorrido, sin pretensión de exhaustividad, sugiere que lo visual sigue estando mayormente ligado a la configuración de imaginarios y estereotipos socioculturales sobre diversos grupos de migrantes. Las posibilidades que lo visual ofrece como modo específico de producción de conocimiento no han sido, por lo general, suficientemente exploradas.

Abstract:

Simulation forms an important part of the development and empirical evaluation of underwater acoustic network (UAN) protocols. The key feature of a credible network simulation model is a realistic channel model. A common approach to simulating realistic underwater acoustic (UWA) channels is by using specialised beam tracing software such as BELLHOP. However, BELLHOP and similar modeling software typically require knowledge of ocean acoustics and a substantial programming effort from UAN protocol designers to integrate it into their research. In this paper, we bridge the gap between low level channel modeling via beam tracing and automated channel modeling, e.g. via the World Ocean Simulation System (WOSS), by providing a distilled UWA channel modeling tutorial from the network protocol design point of view. The tutorial is accompanied by our MATLAB simulation code that interfaces with BELLHOP to produce channel data for UAN simulations. As part of the tutorial, we describe two methods of incorporating such channel data into network simulations, including a case study for each of them: 1) directly importing the data as a look-up table, 2) using the data to create a statistical channel model. The primary aim of this paper is to provide a useful learning resource and modeling tool for UAN protocol researchers. Initial insights into the UAN protocol design and performance provided by the statistical channel modeling approach presented in this paper demonstrate its potential as a powerful modeling tool for future UAN research.

Hospital records were reviewed retrospectively and data on patient demographics, preoperative presentations, intraoperative complications and postoperative visual outcomes was documented on predesigned proformas. All patients underwent lens aspiration, posterior capsulotomy and anterior vitrectomy. Surgeries were performed under general anesthesia. Preoperative and postoperative visual acuity was assessed with ability to fix and follow light/objects, Kay picture test and Snellen’s chart according to patient’s age.

Results:  Three hundred and twenty six eyes underwent surgery for congenital cataract and sixty for traumatic cataract. Number of male patients was 54.93% and female was 45.07%. The average age of patients with congenital cataract was 5.01 years and that for traumatic cataract was 7.8 years. Amblyopia, nystagmus and strabismus were the commonest ocular comorbidities. Uncorrected visual acuity ranged from 6/18 to light perception preoperatively. Postoperatively 55% children with congenital cataract and 15% children with traumatic cataract had visual acuity better than 6/24.

Conclusion:  Early surgery in congenital cataract gives good visual outcomes. In traumatic cataract extraction, the final visual outcome depends on other effects of trauma on ocular structures.

Black Ice: Five ways to get a grip on grouped self-assessments of competence for program evaluation
Authors: Zhao Rebecca , D'Eon Marcel
Published: March 2020

Self-assessments conducted by individuals when taken together (grouped) provide valid and accurate measures of learning outcomes of the group. This is useful for program evaluation. Grouped self-assessments are simple to understand and construct, easy to implement, relatively accurate, and do not require extensive and complex pre-post testing measures. However, group self-assessments have the potential to be misused. To examine how group self-assessments have been used in medical education, we conducted a search of journal articles published in 2017 and 2018 from eight prominent medical education journals. Twenty-seven (n=27) articles that used self-assessments for program evaluation were selected for data extraction and analysis. We found three main areas where misuse of self-assessments may have resulted in inaccurate measures of learning outcomes: measures of “confidence” or “comfort”, pre-post self-assessments, and the use of ambiguous learning objectives. To prevent future misuse and to build towards more valid and reliable data for program evaluations, we present the following recommendations: measure competence instead of confidence or comfort; use pre-test self-assessments for instructional purposes only (and not for data); ask participants to do the post-intervention self-assessments first followed by retrospective pre-intervention self-assessments afterwards; and use observable, clear, specific learning objectives in the educational intervention that can then be used to create the self-assessment statements.
Vasopressine et analogues dans les états de choc
Authors: Demiselle J. , Asfar P.
Published: March 2020

Le système vasopressinergique est l’un des systèmes activés en réponse à une baisse de la pression artérielle. La vasopressine, hormone de stress, entraîne après sa fixation sur les récepteurs V1a des cellules musculaires lisses vasculaires, une vasoconstriction.Au cours du choc septique, la mise en évidence de taux de vasopressine anormalement bas en regard de l’hypotension artérielle, et la capacité de correction de l’hypotension artérielle après administration de vasopressine, ont suscité un vif intérêt des cliniciens. Des analogues de synthèse, avec une plus forte affinité pour les récepteurs vasculaires de la vasopressine ont été développés : la terlipressine et la selepressine.Nous présentons dans cette revue les bénéfices et les risques inhérents à son administration au cours du choc septique et vasoplégique post-opératoire de chirurgie cardiaque. L’administration de vasopressine et ses agonistes permet de diminuer la quantité de noradrénaline administrée, et parmi les effets indésirables liés à son usage, la survenue d’ischémie digitale est la plus fréquente.Enfin, nous tenterons de préciser la place actuelle à proposer à ces molécules en fonction des données de la littérature disponibles, et les questions qui subsistent.
Evaluating a Self-Access Centre’s Effectiveness and Efficiency: A Case Study and Reflection
Authors: Datwani-Choy Daya
Published: March 2020

This article discusses changes that occurred after a case study that examined the effectiveness and efficiency of a Self-access Centre (SAC) within a university in Hong Kong using Morrison’s (2003) Evaluation of Self-access Language Learning Centre framework. The case study addressed issues from a stakeholder’s perspective by collecting data from learners through an online questionnaire and conducting 15 semi-structured interviews, an advisers’ focus group and management interviews and reports. The outcome of the study showed that a wider perspective for senior managers and insights for evaluation of the support services is vital to making key decisions in context. Upon reflection of the findings with the new SAC manager, more acute decision-making and continuous improvement is needed to enhance effectiveness and efficiency of the running of the SAC. To achieve this, regular feedback from various stakeholders, also re-structuring human and non-human support systems is vital.

Published: March 2020

The enormous loss of momentum leads to stall and adversely affects the aerodynamic performance of aeroplane wings which may lead to a disaster, more importantly, risking the safety of the aeroplane by putting lives of passengers on it in danger. Therefore, this paper focuses on the enhancement of aerodynamic characteristics of NACA 23012 through the mitigation of flow separation and delay of the stall at higher angles of attack by using suction for Reynolds number (Re) = 3.4 x 106 . Considering the different suction features such as suction width, suction position, and suction coefficient, the separation delay capability of a suction control is studied. Also, the lift to drag ratio and the impact of energy consumption variation during the control technique are used for estimating the control effects. The Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are employed together with the Menter’s shear stress turbulent model. The result of this study revealed that the jet position just behind the separation point at 0.2 % of the chord length shows an outstanding control outcome on the separation and stall, thereby increasing the lift. The lift to drag ration increased proportionately when the suction jet coefficient was increased. At suction coefficient Cq = 0.00225, a 92.1% drag reduction and 72.7% lift enhancement is observed. Hence, the stall angle is moved beyond 21.5o from an initial angle of 16° and the more energy was saved at a high angle of attack.
MOTIVES OF FISH AND DOLPHIN IN THE EASTERN EUROPEAN SCYTHIAN ANIMAL STYLE: TYPOLOGY, CHRONOLOGY, ORIGINS
Authors: Kantorovich A. R.
Published: March 2020

As the statistical analysis shows, the images of Fish and Dolphin constitute an extremely insignificant share of the general array of images of the Eastern European Scythian animal style. According to the author’s data for 2017, the total array of the original images of this local variant of the Scythian-Siberian animal style consisted of 2207 imageries, without taking into account copies and «mirror» images. Meanwhile there are only 27 original images of Fish and 4 original images of Dolphin, correspondingly only 1.23 and 0.18 % of this array. However, despite all the marginality of the Fish theme and especially of the Dolphin one, the presence of these motifs related to the water element is quite noticeable in the Scythian art. These are both real images (Fish, Dolphin) and syncretic images integrating fish motif (Horned fish, Hippocampus-horse, Griffin-hippocampus, «Cock-hippocampus»). Almost all of these images belong to the era of «Scythian classics» (V—IV centuries BC), especially to the IV century BC — that is, to the time of the most intense influence of Greek art on the Scythian animal style. All this corresponds to the conclusions of S. S. Bessonova and D. S. Raevsky concerning the important role of water element in Scythian religious and mythological ideas.
ON THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE STONE VAULT OF KARAGODEUASHKH MOUND
Authors: Vakhtina M. Ju.
Published: March 2020

The article deals with the planning of the stone vault in Karagodeuashkh mound, excavated by E. F. Felitzin in 1888 in Kuban’ area. The mound contained «rich» burials of the representatives of sindae-maeotian aristocracy and dated to 330—315 BC. The construction of Karagodeuashkh vault shows parallels to enfilade crypts which were wide spread during that time at the territory of ancient Thracia. The finds of metal objects in the inventory of the burial complexes testify to contacts with Thracia and Northern Greece. The materials of Karagodeuashkh mound seem to be important for the examining of cultural contacts of Bosporan kingdom and its Hellenized barbarian periphery in the last third of the 4th century BC. The analysis of the burial goods and construction of the mound is also of great importance for the study of the ideology of the local tribes of Kuban region.
