Mother and calf humpback whale responses to vessels around the Abrolhos Archipelago, Bahia, Brazil
Authors: Morete Maria E. , Bisi Tatiana L. , Rosso Sergio
Published: February 2023

As the humpback whale population spreads along the Brazilian coast, whalewatching activities are becoming more frequent especially along the coast of the state of Bahia. In order to evaluate the appropriateness of the Brazilian legislation that regulates vessel approaches to cetaceans, the behaviour of humpback whale mothers and calves was studied around the Abrolhos Archipelago, an area with a high concentration of tourism vessels. Mother and calf groups were observed by means of continuous sampling and tracked along with vessels using a theodolite. Three whale-vessel categories of distances were analysed: closer than 100m (category 1); between 100-300m (category 2); and further than 300m (category 3). Rates of behavioural events and time spent in particular behavioural states of mothers and calves were compared separately in the three categories to observations of randomly selected mother and calf groups not involved in an interaction with a vessel (category 0). A total effort of 39hr was analysed including observations in each of the four categories. The results showed that differences in humpback whale mother and calf behaviour occurred mostly in the presence of vessels within distances of 100-300m. Mothers increased linearity and mean speed of movement, decreased blow intervals and time spent resting. Calves exhibited less rolling, fluke-ups and others active behavioural events, as well as diminished resting time. During interaction with vessels, the frequency of potentially important behaviours, both for mothers and calves, reduced, probably as a response to the approaching whalewatching vessels. Repeated short-term behavioural disturbances might lead to cumulative effects that may result in risks for species conservation. It is recommended that the Brazilian legislation should include a 300m-radius restrictive zone around mother and calf groups or include a 300m caution zone, where boats should reduce speed and avoid sudden changes in engine status and direction. The environmental education work with local communities along the coast must be continued and constant.

Published: February 2023

Pyrodinium bahamense var compressum is a harmful dinoflagellate that produces saxitoxin, which causes paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) that is deadly to humans. A non-axenic culture of P. bahamense was established using f/2 media from samples collected from Sepanggar Bay, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah. Toxin analyses of cultures harvested on days 60, 120, 180, and 360 were performed using high-performance liquid chromatography with a fluorescence detector and compared with samples collected at the same location during the bloom in 2021. The highest cell toxin content was found in the bloom sample (86.2 fmole/cell), and no toxin was detected in the culture 60 days old. In addition, cell toxin content for the P. bahamense culture was low (9.4-16.5 fmole/cell). Based on the toxin profile, P. bahamense comprises 84- 98% of gonyautoxin 4. In summary, the current findings add to the existing knowledge of the toxin profiling of P. bahamense, a toxic, harmful algal bloom species, thus, leading to better toxin management.

Authors: Bhosle Kavita , Musande Vijaya
Published: February 2023

Devanagari character and digit recognition are a difficult undertaking because writing style depends on a person’s traits and differs from person to person. We get more precise results in digit recognition, thanks to deep learning convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which function similarly to the human brain. In this study, the CNN method was put into practice and contrasted with the feed-forward neural network and random forest approaches. In comparison to previous methods, CNN has reportedly provided an accuracy rating of up to 99.2%. CNN is effective with both organized and unstructured data, including pictures, video, and audio.

A doutrina da causalidade aristotélica como fio condutor para a construção da questão da técnica em Martin Heidegger
Authors: WIEDERWILD DA SILVA FRANCISCO , PEREIRA KATIELI
Published: February 2023

O artigo tematiza a construção da questão técnica moderna tendo como fio condutor a doutrina das quatro causas de Aristóteles. Heidegger, em A Questão da Técnica, inicia o processo de desvelamento da essência do fenômeno técnico a partir da crítica à determinação instrumental e antropológica da técnica, pressupondo a causalidade como seu fundamento. Ao resgatar a noção de causalidade dos pensadores gregos sintetizada na doutrina de Aristóteles, o filósofo constata que a poiésis, além de unir as quatro causas numa coerência, determina essencialmente a técnica antiga artesanal e a arte como formas de desvelamento do ente. Por fim, demonstra-se que o desvelamento da essência da técnica moderna só é possível a partir do caminho de pensamento que perpassa a doutrina das quatro causas aristotélica elucidando seu fundamento e a relação originária entre poiésis e composição.

Examining The Relationship Between Income Concentration And Environmental Pollution In The Context Of The STIRPAT Model: The BRICS Countries
Authors: TEKİNER İbrahim , YAĞLIKARA Aykut
Published: February 2023

The impact of rising economic activity, which increases with international economic relations and globalization, on environmental degradation has been subjected to many studies in the literature. Consequently, numerous factors that have both positive and negative impacts on the environment are included in a number of research. Using a sample of BRICS nations and controlling factors for income, population, and urbanization, our study examines the impact of economic disparity on the environment. In our study using the STIRPAT model, second-generation unit root, panel cointegration, and long-run coefficient tests were applied in light of the findings from the cross-sectional dependency and homogeneity tests. The variables behave jointly over the long term, which indicates that there is a cointegration link between the variables, according to the findings of the panel cointegration test that was conducted. Long-term coefficient estimate throughout the panel’s data reveals that while CO2 emissions are increased by income disparity and per capita income, they are decreased by population. No significant relationship was found for the whole panelbetween the urbanization variable and the environment. When individual nations are taken into account, it is determined that India's income disparity causes a rise in CO2 emissions.

Published: February 2023

CR (Cognitive Radio) is a key technology that enables the limited and inefficiently used frequency bands to be used more effectively with an opportunistic approach. Communication performance and continuity in cognitive radio networks are highly dependent on whether the spectrum sensing function is performed correctly or not. Spectrum sensing is a critical issue of cognitive radio technology because of the shadowing, fading, and time-varying natures of wireless channels. To sense the limited or unused frequency bands, different methods for spectrum sensing have been proposed. Here, improved energy detection is used for this work. Energy detection is a spectrum sensing technique based on measuring the received signal energy and deciding the presence or absence of the primary user by comparing the received energy level with a threshold. Fading channels shows that the speed of the SU increases, the energy detection performance decreases in deterioration in detection probability

Embora estudos tenham demonstrado a eficácia da aplicação de bioestimulantes em sementes, alguns resultados são contraditórios. Portanto, são necessárias mais pesquisas para verificar a adequação dos métodos utilizados e o momento da aplicação desses produtos. As cucurbitáceas são importantes no agronegócio de hortaliças do Brasil. Além do valor econômico e alimentar, o cultivo de cucurbitáceas gera empregos diretos e indiretos, visto que demanda mão de obra em toda a cadeia produtiva. Com base nisso, este trabalho teve por finalidade avaliar o efeito da aplicação do bioestimulante Stimulate® no desenvolvimento inicial de plântulas de Luffa operculata (L.) Cogniaux. Na embebição foram adotados os seguintes tratamentos: 0,0 (controle), 1,0; 2,0; 3,0 e 4,0 mL de Stimulate®/Litro de água destilada.

Published: February 2023

Não existem barreiras morfofisiológicas para o desenvolvimento das glândulas mamárias em machos, porém, o fato de não amamentarem sua prole é intrigante e tem levantado inúmeras questões há muito tempo. Relatamos o primeiro registro de lactação de machos na espécie de Sturnira lilium para um indivíduo capturado na Mata Atlântica brasileira. O indivíduo apresentou as mesmas características morfológicas externas encontradas em fêmeas lactantes. Não podemos concluir que a amamentação masculina seja uma característica comum da espécie. O efeito de fitoestrógenos e pesticidas necessita de investigações mais profundas sobre as populações de morcegos, bem como sobre o comportamento social de S. lilium.
Stochastic Modeling of the Eruption History of Nyiragongo Volcano in the Virunga Volcanic Province, Western Branch of the East African Rift System
Authors: Bantidi Thystere M , Mavonga Georges
Published: February 2023

The modeling of statistical distribution of the eruptive frequency provides basic information to quantitatively assess the volcanic hazard and constrain the physics of the eruptive process. Here, we discuss the statistics of the time series of lateral eruptions of the Nyiragongo volcano in the Virunga Volcanic Province, western branch of the East African Rift System. We examine eruption data with a volcanic explosivity index of at least 1 listed in the Global Volcanism Network Bulletins. After investigating the completeness, stationarity, and independence of the eruption time series, we employ five distribution models (Brownian passage time, gamma, log-logistic, lognormal, and Weibull) to fit the repose time. First, we identify a clear tendency for events to cluster in time. We hypothesize two clusters, the ‘pre-1927’ cluster related to the intracraterial and volcanic activity of the lava lake, and the ‘post-1977’ cluster mainly related to lateral eruptions (i.e. those potentially generating lava flows). Using the maximum likelihood estimations, we evaluate the model parameters with a 95% confidence interval. Next, we use the Akaike Information Criterion to determine the most suitable distribution and we perform the Bayesian Model Averaging approach to assess uncertainty issues in model selection process. The results suggest that the BPT distribution provides the best fit for data of lateral eruptions (post-1977). Then we estimate the time-dependent probability of the occurrence of a lateral eruption for the 50-year period between 2022 and 2072. The estimates reach 50.79%, 88.61%, 97.59%, 99.50%, and 99.89% for 2032, 2042, 2052, 2062, and 2072 years, respectively.
Indications of an Achaea sp. caterpillar outbreak disrupting fruiting of an ectomycorrhizal tropical tree in Central African rainforest
Authors: Norghauer Julian M. , Newbery David M. , Neba Godlove A.
Published: February 2023

Background and aims – Where one or several tree species come to dominate patches of tropical forest, as many masting ectomycorrhizal legumes do in Central Africa, ecological theory predicts they may be prone to herbivory, which might alter their reproductive output. This was indirectly investigated in lowland rainforest in Cameroon for Tetraberlinia korupensis, whose crowns were attacked in 2008 by an outbreaking black caterpillar—identified as an Achaea sp., probably A. catocaloides—in Korup National Park.

Material and methods – Field-collected data on tree-level seed and fruit (pod) production of T. korupensis in its 2008 masting event were compared with that of its two co-dominant neighbours (T. bifoliolata, Microberlinia bisulcata), whose populations masted in 2007 (and 2010). To do this, bivariate regression models (linear, polynomial, ZiG [zero-inflated gamma model]), contingency table analysis, and non-parametric measures of dispersion were used.

Key results – Assuming T. korupensis is prone to Achaea caterpillar attacks, empirical data support the hypothesized lower proportion of adults participating in its masting (54% in 2008) than for either masting population of M. bisulcata (98% in 2007, 89% in 2010) or T. bifoliolata (96% in 2007, 78% in 2010). These fruiting T. korupensis trees were about one-third larger in stem diameter than conspecific non-fruiters and produced as many pods and seeds per capita as T. bifoliolata. However, regressions only modestly support the hypothesis that the positive tree size–fecundity relationship for T. korupensis was weaker (i.e. lower adj. R2) than for M. bisulcata (whose leaves are morphologically similar) or T. bifoliolata, with mostly similar dispersion about the median among these species.

Conclusion – Altogether, the findings suggest a role for tolerance in nutrient-poor forests. It is postulated that instead of conferring resistance to herbivores, the ectomycorrhizas associated with these trees may enable them to more quickly recover from potential yet unpredictable insect outbreaks.
PROCEDURAL CHARACTER OF PROTECTION FUNCTIONS IN PRE-TRIAL CRIMINAL PROCESS

Published: February 2023

This article reveals the essence of the protection function, which is one of the functions of the criminal process, its importance as a direction of criminal proceedings, the concept of the right to protection arising from the implementation of this function. A controversy is conducted with the scientific and theoretical views of national and foreign procedural scientists regarding the importance of the protection function and the definition of the essence of the right to protection, the legislation of foreign countries in this area has been studied and analyzed in detail. Since our criminal procedural legislation does not have a norm defining the content of the concept of the right to defense, to prevent ambiguities in the course of the defender’s activities, one of the main purposes of writing an article is to reflect the essence of the concept of the right to defense in law. As a result of the analysis: the author’s definition of the right to protection was developed; given scientifically grounded proposals on the classification of the stages of implementation of the protection function; it was proposed to introduce the concept of the right to defense in the Criminal Procedure Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan and to present article 24 of the Code in a new edition. When writing the article, the methods of comparative legal, logical (analysis and synthesis) and complex analysis of scientific sources of knowledge were widely used.

"The article provides an analysis of the material well-being of prisoners in some foreign countries. In addition, in order to find a theoretical and practical solution to the problem posed in the article, a number of conclusions were provided. In particular, it was emphasized that Uzbekistan, as an equal subject of the world community, recognizing the generally recognized norms and rules of international law, regardless of our desire, should not allow the functioning of the penitentiary system in military or paramilitary structures. When analyzing the material well-being of prisoners, the article also included the development of a new concept covering at least fifteen or twenty years of the functioning of the penitentiary system, with an approximate but realistic time frame, without a hasty solution to this issue. This article analyzes the fact that in all countries that it is wrong to say that the penitentiary system is under the control of the Ministry of Justice. In Great Britain, for example, the Ministry of Internal Affairs runs the penitentiary system. It is clear from this that this issue, related to the internal policy of each state, is also closely related to its economy. "

Authors:   Prosecutor Office of the Bukhara region, Tashev Azizbek
Published: February 2023

Statements of the positive and negative aspects of diverting juveniles from the formal justice system may not be convincing unless there is a clear definition of what diversion measures are, both in terms of the etymological meaning of the word and from the point of view international standard and its effectiveness. In the literature, diversion measures are not translated precisely from English into Russian. For example, words, such as “deduction,” “avoidance,” “withdrawal,” “diversion,” “divergence” have similar meaning in English. However, the author does not apply a legal-linguistic approach to research to reflect the essence and effectiveness at the same time. He examines various approaches to understanding the measures of diversion of juveniles from criminal justice and their significance, analyzes foreign literature, and summarizes the results of a comparative analysis of theories and concepts on diversion measures. In conclusion, the author concludes that it is necessary to continue studying the various concepts and practices of this institution for its further effective and harmonious implementation in Uzbekistan, taking into account the national specifics and best foreign practices.

SCIENTIFIC AND THEORETICAL ANALYSIS CONCEPT AND ESSENCE OF ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDINGS
Authors:   Tashkent State University of Law, Bakaev Shakhriyor
Published: February 2023

This article provides a scientific and theoretical analysis of the concept and essence of administrative proceedings on the basis of the history of the emergence of this legal institution and the views of legal scholars in this direction. In particular, it points out that the concept of administrative proceedings was first used in the legislation of France, and then in the legislation of Germany, Switzerland, Italy and the United States of America. It also mentions the fact that administrative proceedings are understood by legal scholars in three different contexts. While one group of scientists understood administrative proceedings as a way of making a person responsible for administrative offenses by court, other scientists considered administrative proceedings as the resolution of disputes arising from public law relations by court, that is, consideration and resolution of complaints from citizens and legal persons on decisions of state bodies and actions (inaction) of officials. The third group of scholars under administrative proceedings differenciated two types of activities of the court, namely the resolution disputes arising from public-legal relations by court and its participation in proceedings on cases of administrative offenses. On the basis of the analysis the author suggests the definition of the concept of administrative proceedings.

Authors:   University of World Economy and Diplomacy, Kozakov Bekhzod
Published: February 2023

In this article, the author analyzes questions regarding the definition and legal properties of the principle of good neighborliness in contemporary international law. The relevance of the chosen topic is explained by the fact that in the modern conditions of active foreign policy of Uzbekistan, building good-neighborly relations is defined as one of the priority directions of the country’s foreign policy. The scientific novelty of this article is determined by the fact that, despite the frequent reference to the principle of good neighborliness in the main sources of modern international law and in conceptual documents of foreign policy of the countries of the world, including Uzbekistan, in the legal literature, especially in domestic doctrinal sources, there is an acute lack of legal comprehension of the principle good neighborliness. Using general scientific and special methods: system analysis; structural legal, dialectical, historical approaches; the method of logical deduction and induction, as well as the method of comparative jurisprudence, the author will try to reveal the legal essence and properties of the principle of good-neighborliness between states. Based on the analysis of the legal and regulatory sources of modern international law, as well as the existing doctrinal base, in particular the works of foreign researchers, the author offers his conclusions regarding the legal properties and the international legal nature of the principle of good neighborliness.

Published: February 2023

The sea surface temperature increase due to global warming is causing rapid iceberg melting and increased condensation of clouds, each project to a global consequence in the form of sea surface temperature drop during storms, marine heatwaves, sea level rise, and increase in intensification and rate of recurrence of storm weather events.Here we present the analysis of 30-year-long measurements of sea surface temperature and instantaneous water surface elevation, measured by two buoys moored in separate locations in the climate hotspot area in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea at the depth of 24 meters, two kilometers off the Israeli coastline. Additional long-term measurements of sea level rise from several stations along the Israeli coastline are also integrated into the analysis. The increase in storm weather events was examined in terms of storms’ significant wave height statistics, using peak-over-threshold analysis over the historic data. The results showed occurrences of sea surface temperature drop events following storms and of marine heatwaves, positive trends were observed in sea level and in sea surface temperature rise. The last two decades are shown to be characterized by storm intensification. The sea surface rise was correlated against the measured sea surface temperature trends as obtained by the buoys and compared to Copernicus satellite data with remarkable conclusions.
