The dramatic badland landscapes of severely eroded peatlands represent significant degradation of the ecosystems, which when intact, provide a range of regulating ecosystem services including carbon sequestration and runoff regulation. Increasing efforts are being made to restore these landscapes through re-vegetation and gully blocking. Restoration has been driven by the aims of restoring biodiversity and carbon storage but the transformation of hillslopes and channels also has significant impacts on hillslope runoff. This paper reports on a major project from the uplands of the UK which has been studying the generation of hillslope runoff in restored peatlands and the potential to optimise restoration approaches to mitigate downstream flood risk. Peatlands are highly productive of runoff so that these approaches have the potential to deliver multiple benefits including Natural Flood Risk management for headwater communities.

Our work has demonstrated that whilst static storage of water behind gully blocks is one component of the NFM benefit, dynamic storage on hillslopes during storm events is enhanced by increased surface roughness in restored catchments and is the larger component of the overall NFM benefit. Gully blocks with pipes or slots which enable drawdown between storms maximise static storage whilst the planting of sphagnum moss dramatically increases dynamic storage on the hillslopes.

Taken together these data support the potential role of peatland restoration in NFM schemes and suggest that restoration of gully-eroded peatlands can deliver flood protection in headwater communities alongside wider benefits.
Chronology of fossil climbing dunes on the Galician cliff coast (NW Spain) formed during MIS8, MIS6, MIS4 and MIS2 regressive episodes. Past and present of the coastal aeolian record
Authors: Arce-Chamorro Carlos , Vidal-Romaní Juan Ramón , Sanjurjo-Sánchez Jorge
Published: June 2022

The Atlantic coast of Galicia (NW Spain), about 1,700 km long, alternates deep inlets on the mainland (as wide estuaries called rias) with rocky cliffs up to 600 m high (due to neotectonics). Along this irregular coastline, numerous dune deposits (aeolianites) are preserved, which are formed by thin sandy and silty-sandy wedges (<5 m) and a variable extension - not always fully recognisable due to the dense vegetation cover and slope dynamics. These aeolianites are found both in open coastal areas and in the interior of the Galician Rias, reaching heights of up to +45 m above present sea level (and even higher). Grain size, morphological and microscopic analyses (scanning electron microscopy; SEM) have been performed for determining the aeolian origin of sands. Their location on cliff areas, where there are no sand beaches today, suggests that they are ancient climbing dunes deposited during sea level drop events at the end of the Pleistocene. The ages estimated by optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) for these deposits range between 17 ky and 35 ky. Infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) was also used for dating four other deposits, providing ages around 66 ky, 128 ky and 131 ky and 166 ky. Additionally, the oldest climbing due to date in the Iberian Peninsula is located in this area, providing an age around 300 ky. All such ages were obtained at the Luminescence Laboratory of the University of Coruña. The formation of such deposits and transport of sand towards the areas now occupied by the present coastline occurred during the isotopic stages MIS2, MIS4, MIS6 and MIS8. During these stages, the sea level dropped between 50 m and 120 m (relative to present sea level), shifting the coastline several kilometres away (>20 km) and exposing a wide strip of the continental shelf covered by sands that would act as a source area. The continuous wind blowing and the wind strength due to the Venturi effect caused by the highest rocky reliefs, favoured the advancing of the climbing dunes to a height of more than 200 m (above sea-level at the time), resulting in the deposits still preserved today. The inland transport of these materials by coastal winds during maximum regressive events was progressively stopped as sea level rose during interglacials (such as the Eemian and Holocene) when sand source areas were flooded. As the sea reaches its maximum transgressive levels, these dunes are severely affected by both alternating wind (blow-out and storm corridors) and then marine erosion (washover fans) that destroys both relict and recent (<10 ky) deposits, contributing to quick erosion process of the sedimentary coastline that is considered a consequence of global warming during the Holocene interglacial.
Reduction of wind-turbine-generated seismic noise with structural measures
Authors: Abreu Rafael , Peter Daniel , Thomas Christine
Published: June 2022

Abstract. Reducing wind turbine noise recorded at seismological stations promises to lower the conflict between renewable energy producers and seismologists. Seismic noise generated by the movement of wind turbines has been shown to travel large distances, affecting seismological stations used for seismic monitoring and/or the detection of seismic events. In this study, we use advanced 3D numerical techniques to study the possibility of using structural changes in the ground on the wave path between the wind turbine and the seismic station in order to reduce or mitigate the noise generated by the wind turbine. Testing a range of structural changes around the foundation of the wind turbine, such as open and filled cavities, we show that we are able to considerably reduce the seismic noise recorded by placing empty circular trenches approx. 10 m away from the wind turbines. We show the expected effects of filling the trenches with water. In addition, we study how relatively simple topographic elevations influence the propagation of the seismic energy generated by wind turbines and find that topography does help to reduce wind-turbine-induced seismic noise.

Published: June 2022

Abstract. As part of the ongoing X-Wakes research project, a 5-month wake-measurement campaign was conducted using a scanning lidar installed amongst a cluster of offshore wind farms in the German Bight. The main objectives of this study are (1) to demonstrate the performance of such a system and thus quantify cluster wake effects reliably and (2) to obtain experimental data to validate the cluster wake effect simulated by the flow models involved in the project. Due to the lack of free wind flow for the wake flow directions, wind speeds obtained from a mesoscale model (without any wind farm parameterization) for the same time period were used as a reference to estimate the wind speed deficit caused by the wind farm wakes under different wind directions and atmospheric stabilities. For wind farm waked wind directions, the lidar data show that the wind speed is reduced up to 30 % at a wind speed of about 10 m s−1, depending on atmospheric stability and distance to the wind farm. For illustrating the spatial extent of cluster wakes, an airborne dataset obtained during the scanning wind lidar campaign is used and compared with the mesoscale model with wind farm parameterization and the scanning lidar. A comparison with the results of the model with a wind farm parameterization and the scanning lidar data reveals a relatively good agreement in neutral and unstable conditions (within about 2 % for the wind speed), whereas in stable conditions the largest discrepancies between the model and measurements are found. The comparative multi-sensor and model approach proves to be an efficient way to analyze the complex flow situation in a modern offshore wind cluster, where phenomena at different length scales and timescales need to be addressed.
The Groningen Integral History Cohort Database. Development, Design and Output
Authors: Paping Richard , Sevdalakis Dinos
Published: June 2022

The Groningen Integral History project launched in 1987 aimed to sketch the lives of people from various social classes in the Dutch province of Groningen in the 19th and early 20th century. One part was the creation of the Groningen Integral History Cohort Database (GIHCD), reconstructing complete individual life courses of 5,280 persons (RPs) born between 1811 and 1872. The quality of the database has become very high by now, despite the lengthy and difficult process of shaping it over 35 years. More than 98% of the RPs (and for some parts of the database even more than 99%) could be followed until their death or until a migration abroad. Even for the life courses of those moving abroad information is available for most RPs. In this article, we primarily focus on the rural part of the database (n = 4,320), the quality of which is the highest and has had the most significant tangible research impact. Building on information from the Dutch civil registration system (from 1811) and the population registers (from 1850), the database includes multiple individual-level variables. In the technical part of the article, we provide an extensive overview of the available variables and summarize the transformation of the rural part of the database into an Intermediate Data Structure (IDS). Since the early 1990s, historians from the University of Groningen have used GIHCD in quite some publications. At the end of this article, we provide a summary of the main outcomes of these publications.

In this research, Metaverse will be discussed as an event platform. The study, it is aimed to analyze the use of Twitter shares related to Metaverse, which is a new activity area, in terms of event management. While the universe of the study consists of accounts that share Metaverse, the sample is the official Twitter account of Turkey Metaverse E-Journal. The tweets shared by the magazine on its official Twitter account between October 23, 2021, and December 31, 2021, were analyzed according to the thematic analysis management in the Maxqda program, and the following results were obtained: 298 tweets were shared between these dates, and 343 codings were done on these tweets. When the Twitter shares of Turkey Metaverse E-Magazine were evaluated according to the activity types (f=153), coding was done. Shared event types are M.I.C.E events, promotional events, cultural-artistic-sports events, and festivals. It is seen that while the least M.I.C.E events are shared, the most festival events are the most. The event scales shared by the magazine are signature events, special events, and qualifying events. In this context, it can be said that the most qualified events were realized and the least signature events were carried out. Therefore, it can be interpreted that the types and scales of events in Metaverse will increase depending on the spread of this platform.

يعالج هذا المقال قضية فلسفية تتعلق بمجال الميتافيزيقا من زاوية نظر الفيلسوف الفرنسي المعاصر اتيان جلسون، بحيث يدعو إلى إعادة التفكير في تاريخ الفلسفة وخاصة فلسفة العصر الوسيط من أجل فهم أهم التحولات التي عرفها الفكر الفلسفي عبر التاريخ. نحاول في هذا المقال إبراز الفكر التاريخي الذي يدافع عنه جلسون من خلال تتبع تطور مفهومين أساسيين في تاريخ الفلسفة وهما: الوجود والماهية. ومن خلال تتبع تناول هذه المفاهيم عند أهم الفلاسفة يتبين أن الإشكال المركزي الذي لم يتم تجاوزه منذ البدايات الاولى للميتافيزيقا، يتمثل في تلك العلاقة القائمة بين مفهومي الوجود والماهية ومدى أسبقية أحدهما على الآخر. يدافع اتيان جلسون عن تصور القديس توماس الأكويني الذي يتبنى أسبقية الوجود عن الماهية، وفي سبيل هذا التوجه ترتبط الفلسفة بالواقع فتصبح القضايا الوجودية وان كانت ذات طبيعة ماهوية، من صلب الواقع الوجودي للكائن الموجود واقعيا، وبالتالي تصبح القضايا الميتافيزيقية قضايا تعالج الواقع الوجودي أو ما يسميه جلسون الوجود الواقعي أي l’existence ومن تم تتحقق الغاية من المقال وهي الانتقال من الوجود l’être إلى الوجود الواقعي l’existence. يعمل اتيان جلسون على مقاربة موضوع الوجود والماهية من خلال العودة التاريخية لقراءة تاريخ الفلسفة منذ أصولها الأولى التي تعود لليونان، ثم يربطها بالعصر الوسيط في شقيه الإسلامي والمسيحي ويركز خاصة على الإصلاح الذي قام به القديس طوماس الأكويني، ليقول بأن ما جاء به ديكارت في القرن 17م لم يكن فتحا ديكارتيا محضا ولم يكن عبقرية ديكارتية، وإنما هو عمل تاريخي ساهمت فيه عدة شخصيات فلسفية، بل وثقافات مختلفة، خاصة الاصلاح الفلسفي الذي توّجه القديس طوماس الأكويني في القرن الثالث عشر من خلال جعل الوجود يسبق الماهية أو بصيغة أخرى جعل الماهية تابعة للوجود.

Interrelationship amongst varieties of edible mushroom through Molecular marker Study
Authors: Roy Ushri , Roy Urmi
Published: June 2022

The information regarding the DNA sequences of plant is very limited. When knowledge of the DNA sequence of the targeted genome is unavailable several PCR based techniques (RAPD, ITS, AFLP, SSR markers, SNP markers) are utilized to accumulate information about the genetic adaptability. Random Amplification of Polymorphic DNA is a technique by which the random segments of DNA are amplified. Short nucleotide primers (8–12 nucleotides) are used to proceed with the PCR using genomic DNA, for fragments to amplify. The primers bind somewhere in the sequence. By comparing the banding matrix the DNA patterns can be ascertained. RAPD has been utilized to characterize, trace the phylogeny of diverse plant species. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) is to a non-functional RNA situated between structural ribosomal RNAs (rRNA) on a transcript. The sequence of rRNA precursor transcript is the 5' external transcribed sequence (5' ETS), 18S rRNA, ITS1, 5.8S rRNA, ITS2, 28S rRNA and the 3'ETS read from 5' to 3' direction. The complete sequence repeats themselves in tandem array for thousands of copies separated by regions of non-transcribed DNA termed non-transcribed spacer (NTS) or intergenic spacer (IGS). There is the presence of two ITS regions in eukaryotes. The first one located between 18S and 5.8S rRNA genes is called ITS1, while the next in the sequence is ITS2 that lies between 5.8S and 26S rRNA genes in plants. Each eukaryotic ribosomal cluster follows the sequence of the 5' external transcribed sequence (5' ETS), trailed by the 18S rRNA gene, the ITS1 and the 5.8S rRNA gene, the ITS2, the 28S rRNA gene, and finally the 3' ETS. ETS and ITS pieces are excised and rapidly degraded during rRNA maturation. In our study four different gilled mushrooms were analyzed for RAPD and ITS study.

Authors: Krishnan Premala , Krishnan Kamala , Jie Xiang Chiew
Published: June 2022

Background and Objectives: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a lifestyle disease that affects 463 million of adults worldwide. In Malaysia, DM especially Type 2 DM (T2DM) has an alarming increasing trend. Physiotherapy has been demonstrated to be effective in preventing and managing T2DM. Hence, a Knowledge, Attitude and Practices (KAP) survey is conducted to determine the knowledge, attitudes, and current practices of Malaysian physiotherapists in preventing and managing Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: Malaysian physiotherapists were recruited to answer a KAP survey. The survey contained 44 items in four domains: demographics and education, attitudes and beliefs, current practices, and knowledge of diabetes. A descriptive analysis was completed for all the response variables from the survey. Results: 297 practicing physiotherapists in Malaysia predominantly from Kuala Lumpur and Selangor were recruited. The participants generally had a moderate knowledge in T2DM care, in which a lack of hypoglycaemia management knowledge was noticed. A great proportion of respondents was not confident in key aspects T2DM care. Even though 76.73% of respondents agreed that T2DM fall under physiotherapy scope of practice, only 55.22% provided counselling on T2DM prevention and management. A lack in practice of blood glucose testing and monitoring was also noticed in most of the respondents. A discrepancy between respondents’ self-efficacy and knowledge was observed, in which a proportion of respondents were confident in providing T2DM care but lacked the relevant knowledge. Conclusion: This study identified gaps in knowledge, attitude and practice on T2DM care by Malaysian Physiotherapists. Measures to close the gaps are therefore recommended.

All the compounds were synthesized by the esterification reaction of 2-(4- Fluoro Phenyl)--butyric acid with sulphuric acid and ethanol followed by hydrazine hydrate to give substituted hydrazides and then hydrazone with substituted ketons, which are cyclized with aldehyde substitutes to give the [5-(2,5-Dichloro-phenyl)-2-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyridin-1-yl]-acetic acid(4-4chloro-benzylidene)-hydrazide derivatives. Structure of all derivatives was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. All these compounds were demonstrated for in-vitro anti oxidant activity by using DPPH radical scavenging activity and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity. Molecular Docking was carried out by cyclin dependent kinase protein and DNA-hexamer ATGCAT. Molecular docking studies of derivatives were carried out by AutoDock Vina molecular docking software. All the results were calculated by PaDEL software. Results of antioxidant activity revealed that all compounds are potent antioxidants at a concentration of 50µg/ml.

Authors: Baron Michael
Published: June 2022

COVID-19 reached the Australian shores by the end of January 2020 with the disruptive lockdowns commencing in March and continuing on and off till October, 2021. The initial lockdowns have proved to be particularly disruptive to the service industries’ operations as they resulted in dramatic and forced migration of the traditionally brick-and-mortar or hybrid (brick-and-click) operations into the digital space. Being un unplanned move, it has caught many organisations unprepared and without a carefully crafted step-by-step digital transformation plan. In many of the instances, the transition had to be orchestrated literally overnight’. The main objective of this paper is to identify and to examine current state of the digital transformation of the service delivery processes by the means of investigating both literature and the Open Source Data available on the service industries and sectors both locally (in Australia) and internationally. The study is part of the preliminary investigation of the digital transformation ‘’boosters’’ and ‘’blockers’’ with the aim of establishing the Digital Transformation (DT) Framework as well as industry-wide practices for implementation and management of digital transformation programs.

Foundations of the Principles of Non-Contradiction and Identity
Authors: EVGİN Korcan
Published: June 2022

Aristotle finds “why a thing is itself” to be “a meaningless inquiry,” (Aristotle, 2000, VII - 17) Hume says about the propositions that express that one thing is identical with itself “we really should mean nothing” (Hume, 2019, p. 230) and, according to Wittgenstein (1922), they say nothing (5.5303). However, I would like to ask here, how can it be so obviously true for a healthy adult person, who has no idea about science, mathematics or logic, that one thing is not another one, but the thing itself? I believe that the tautology, A is not non-A, but A, or short expressed “A is A,” seems so obviously true that it may help to find the origin of so-called “the laws of thought” through the medium of the clues that are given by its self-evidence.

The purpose of this work is to claim that the principles of non-contradiction and identity are first based not on human reasoning or thought, but on the biological foundations , namely reception, sensation and perception, which every known living being has. To begin, these principles and then their origin, the discerning faculty, will be explained from the point of view of John Locke. After that, with the help of some examples from biology, it will be indicated that not only human but also every known life form that doesn’t have cognition as human has has this fundamental faculty in its perception and thereby can discern its perceptibilia . Finally, due to this fact, the biological roots of these principles will be demonstrated.
