Implementation On Regulation Of Ministry Of Health Number 21 Of 2013 About Prvention Of HIV/AIDS In Work Area Of Talise Public Health Center In Mantikulore Subdistric
Authors: Magvira Rheina
Published: September 2020

Based on data of Health Office of Palu City in 2019 about HIV/AIDS cases, it reached 818 cases of HIV and 306 cases of AIDS, and 109 of sufferers died. The highest cases of HIV/AIDS were in Talise Public Health Center with 13 of HIV. The factor that causes the highest number of HIV/AIDS cases in Talise Public Health Center is the lack of patients participation in counseling, mobile VCT, and many of them do not follow the instruction of Public Health Center in conducting the treatment to the patients of HIV/AIDS. Another factor is the lack of human resources as counselors and lab staff, there is no special room for HIV/AIDS patients inside or outside the Health Center, and there is no incentive provided by the Health Center for the field workers. This study aims to describe the Implementation on Regulation of Ministry of Health Number 21 of 2013 about HIV/AIDS Prevention in work area of Talise Public Health Center, Mantikulore Subdistrict. The study applied qualitative research using a case study approach. Technique of selecting the informants was purposive sampling. There were 6 informants, nameley key informant (Head Of Public Health Center). Ordinary informants (HIV/AIDS program holders), and additional informants were HIV/AIDS patients. Data collection techniques were through triangulations: indept interview, observation and ducumentation using interview guidelines. The result of the study shows that communication is one of an obstacle. Many patients are shy and do not want to take part in examining the reproductive organs. Therefore, they do not receive the status as PLHIV patient. Resources and disposition are not good enough because health center  does not allocate addition staff as well as rewards to officers, the budget only for operational, the bureaucratic structure is good enough, and the cross-sector role is supportive. It is expected that Talise Publich Health Center can improve more about the management and standards releted to the Regulation of Ministry of Health Number 21 of 2013 concerning the tackling of HIV/AIDS.
Offshore Wind farm HVDC Transmission System Protection against AC and DC Faults
Authors: Mohamed A. H. El-Sayed  , Mohamed M. A. Mahfouz
Published: September 2020

This   paper   develops   a   new   one-side,   non-communication  protection  algorithm  for  HVDC  transmission integrating  an  offshore  variable  speed  wind  farm  to a  public grid.  The  proposed  digital  relay  is  installed  at  the  AC  side  bus connecting  the  farm  with  the  HVDC  transmission  system.  The algorithm protects the HVDC system against DC faults along DC cables and AC faults on the AC sides before the rectifier and after the  inverter  stations.      This  algorithm  is  based  on  continuous tracking  of  autocorrelation  coefficient  between  the  sampled current  pattern  and  the  pre-cycle  stored  pattern  along  similar windows.  The  variation  in  coefficient  magnitude  indicates  the fault  incidence  while  its  sign  determines  the  fault  direction. Estimation  of  autocorrelation  from  one  side  for  the  same measured signal by  the relay  will eliminate the effects  of  fault resistance, harmonics and DC components associated with the fault  current.  To  validate  the  developed  algorithm,  the  HVDC transmission system fed by offshore farm is applied on real wind farm using the manufacture data.

Published: September 2020

As the global energy demand shows a steady growth, the energy framework becomes more restrictive in reference to the environmental impact and judicious use of resources. In this context, energy recovery from renewable waste stands out as a promising technology to deal with large amounts of different wastes while producing energy. This paper addresses the poultry manure waste treatment from the energy recovery perspective. After a brief overview of available technologies for energy valorization of animal manure, the physical-chemical characteristics of poultry manure are investigated through experimental determinations. Further, a case study is presented in reference to the energy recovery potential of a birdhouse with a livestock of 2 000 birds per cycle, located in Southern Romania. The assessment carried out within this research proves that, by locally using the poultry manure as a feedstock for energy generation, the savings in terms of electricity consumption get to 100%. Moreover, it is no longer necessary to store large quantities of waste.

Published: September 2020

With electricity demand increase and the need to expand and diversify generating sources in pursuit of energy sustainability, the distributed generation (DG), from unconventional renewable sources, has been getting more and more space in the distribution system (DS). In Brazil, this DG dissemination is predominantly photovoltaic solar energy (PV) due to the characteristics and high levels of solar radiation. As this type of source depends on solar irradiation for energy conversion, the PV system is directly influenced by cloudiness, which causes part of the solar incidence to reflect in the clouds and may cause a drastic and abrupt reduction of the generated power. This phenomenon is difficult to predict, thus making PV systems an intermittent and considered supplementary source. Moreover, as it is an electronically processed generation source for power conversion and adequacy, there is the incidence of harmonic injection in the distribution network at the connection point. Due to the possible problems that DG can cause in DS, this paper presents an analysis of the impact on power quality (PQ) of a DS, considering different allocations, penetration levels, and system load. The study focus is on the Brazilian DS, so the system was adapted to the local reality through real dealership data

Published: September 2020

Power loss, damages overestimation and environmental impacts are the main problems related to wind energy and its planning and management. One of the tools used to analyse and manage this problem is the aerodynamic wind tunnel. In this work wind tunnel tests were performed in two different facilities, an open-circuit wind tunnel and a close-circuit wind tunnel, in order to study the suitability of these features to optimize wind farms layout and power quality and its dependence of the type of tests facility. Experimental results in this work are reported as wind speed and turbulence intensity vertical profiles and flow fields with a simulated ABL with and without the presence of a three-bladed wind turbine model. Results show that mean wind velocity is similar in both tunnels, but turbulence intensity is higher for the open-circuit wind tunnel.

Published: September 2020

In the last years, worldwide, more capacity of solar energy has been added than any other type of electric power generation technology. The current expansion market is largely due to the increase in market competitiveness of photovoltaic solar energy and demand for electricity. However, the markets continue to be driven largely by government or regulatory incentives and not by innovative business. Therefore, this paper presents: (i) overview of photovoltaic systems regarding the most adopted business models in Brazil; ii) business model economic viability case study. The results presented shows that the acquisition model has the best investment indicators. For the Acquisition and Rental models, all case studies were economically viable, but in the Shared Solar Generation model the Consumer Units C1 and C2 were considered unfeasible by Levelized Cost of Energy - LCOE criterion.

Simulations have been done considering the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure 3 (WLTP3) standard cycle. The model has been implemented in MATLAB. In addition, recommendations on charging procedures are given in order to reduce the degradation of batteries.
Impact of High PV Penetration on Transient Stability — a Case Study on the U.S. ERCOT System
Authors: Abigail Till  , Shutang You  , Yilu Liu
Published: September 2020

This study was performed to assess the impact of high photovoltaic (PV) penetration on transient stability using a series of hypothetical models of the ERCOT system. This was done by calculating the critical clearing time (CCT) when faulting various busses. Varying levels of PV penetration were used to study the system transient stability. For each case 15% wind penetration was also included. It was found that under the PV volt/Var control with plant-level GE SolarControl settings, PV penetration at lower level can slightly improve the transient stability in the ERCOT system model. However, at approximately 54% penetration of renewables (39% PV and 15% wind), transient stability starts to show declining trend. This value has slight variance depending on PV distribution.
VSC Control Strategy for Systems with high penetration of Power Electronic Converters
Authors: Marcial Gonzalez de Armas  , Jose Luis Rodriguez Amenedo  , Santiago Arnaltes Gomez  , Jaime Alonso-Martinez
Published: September 2020

This paper presents a Voltage Source Converter (VSC) with an implemented Virtual Synchronous Machine (VSM) control strategy, which is able to work in both grid-tied and islanded mode, providing inertia to the grid and regulating the frequency and the voltage of the system. Those capabilities are necessary to make possible a high penetration of power electronic converters in the power grid. Converters work in parallel with the conventional generators while being able to deal with islanding or some other critical grid events. The proposed control strategy has been tested in a test bench with a synchronous generator (SG). When islanding the VSC, the converter demonstrates its grid forming capabilities controlling the frequency and voltage of the microgrid. The VSM control has proved its grid forming and grid supporting capabilities, without switching between control modes, making it ideal to react to different grid events and showing a soft transition between grid-tied and islanded operation modes

Authors: C. Habchi  , K. Ghali  , N. Ghaddar
Published: September 2020

In  indoor  environments,  floor  surfaces  are  sinks  of particles  that  might re-suspend  in  air.  If  not  removed  by the  ventilation  configuration,  particles  carrying  bacteria and   viruses   constitute   a   threat   for occupant’s  health. Selecting   a   proper   ventilation   system   with   convenient design   parameters   plays   an   important role   in   particle removal  from  the  occupied  space.  In  this  work,  a  typical office space was considered with the option of varying the ventilation    configuration    by    considering    a    mixing ventilation  (MV)  system,  displacement  ventilation  (DV) system,   and   reversed   displacement   ventilation   (RDV) system. The effectiveness of these systems in removing re-suspended    particles    from    the    indoor    space    during vacuuming   sessions   was   studied. For   this   reason, a transient  3D  computational  fluid  dynamics  (CFD)  model was  developed  and  was  validated  experimentally  in  a climatic   chamber   equipped   with   both   MV   and   DV systems. Good agreement was obtained between measured and predicted values of particles’ concentration with low relative  error  in  the  order  of  10  %.  The  parametric  study conducted  showed  that  the  reversed  DV  configuration insured the best particle removal performance by resulting in  an  effective  suction  effect  at  the  floor  level.  The  worst performance was provided by the conventional DV system due   to   the   upward   DV   airflow   transporting   the   re-suspended  particles  from  the  floor  levels  to  the  upper breathing  levels  spreading  contaminants.  From  here  the RDV   configuration   was   suggested   for   operation   of ventilation  system  during  vacuuming  session  to  enhance particle removal.

Published: September 2020

The smoking rate of adolescent continues to increase in Indonesia. It is necessary to involve all parties in the anti-smoking campaign, including mothers.This research aims to find out about the influences of mother’s status on the prevalence of smoking habits among adolescent. Mother’s status in this research referred to education level and occupation status. This research data was obtained from a survey questionnaire with 998 adolescent respondents in Pontianak City, Indonesia. The research findings showed that only mother’s occupation status significantly influences the probability for mothers to give some suggestions to their children about the danger of smoking. However, mother’s suggestion variable did not significantly influence their children’s decision to smoke. But the significant variables to influence adolescents’ decision to smoke were smoking parents and father’s suggestions about the danger of smoking.This is due to the culture of Indonesian society, children tend to more obey their fathers’ advice than their mothers’ ones.

Keywords: Adolescent; Smoking Habit; Mother’s status, Education level, Occupation status.

Incentivizing Survey Response: How Incentive Timing, Response Mode Choice, and Urbanicity Affect Survey Response
Authors: Tracy Andrew , Javernick-Will Amy
Published: September 2020

Surveys and questionnaires are common tools used in construction and engineering project organization research, though there is a dearth of literature on how to best conduct surveys of issues related to these topics. In this paper, we analyzed how three factors—choice of response mode, incentive timing, and urbanicity—affect response rate, response speed, and degree of survey completion. The survey design used postal contact to solicit participation in a web survey of the general public in Oklahoma and Colorado
regarding oil and gas development and hazards. We found that offering a choice of two response modes (web response or mailed paper response) had no significant effect on response rate, response speed, or the degree of survey completion compared to those only offered the web response option. We also found that the timing of a guaranteed incentive (i.e. receiving a monetary incentive in the initial contact versus in the
first follow-up) did not significantly affect response rate or the degree of survey completion but did result in a faster response time. Urbanicity of a target community significantly affected all three measures: urban communities exhibited a higher response rate, quicker response speed, and a greater degree of survey completion as compared to rural households, regardless of mode choice or the timing of the incentive. Findings will help inform researchers who employ household surveys how survey design choices impact
public response.

It is found that the overall system is able to monitor petroleum pipelines and reduce acts of vandalism on the nation’s pipeline topology.
MINORITY STUDENTS AND INTEGRATIONAL ISSUES IN AN INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY IN KURDISTAN
Authors: Kapur Vijay
Published: September 2020

Over the last few decades, professionals have searched for generalized strategies and techniques to integrate students, but most often these studies have not examined the specific needs of minority students, who are segregated on ground of religion or cultural issues practiced by them, making them different from the majority others. These students often belong to different religious ethnicity and they make up a much smaller percentage and as a result, their experiences and needs at times gets lost and goes undetected. This article intends to investigate the gap between the ideal level of integration and the existing level between diverse groups of students and offers solutions towards bridging the gap in an international university in Kurdistan, northern Iraq.
Global Environmental Forecast and Roadmap Based on 420 kY of Paleoclimatology
Authors: Valone Thomas F.
Published: September 2020

As the world’s population has tripled (3x) since 1950, with another 50% increase expected by 2100, global annual carbon dioxide emissions growth rate has quadrupled (4x) since 1950 and global energy demand has quintupled (5x), all in the same time period. This discontinuous combination can be called a “3-4-5 Triad” and the sudden acceleration in all three arenas is too stressful on the environment and the damaging effects will be felt globally for centuries to come unless drastic action is taken. More importantly, the energy demand at 5x is outstripping the other two. This clearly means that as the population explodes at 3x, the emerging middle class wants almost twice as much as their usual share as fossil-fueled generators spread around the globe and modern conveniences become more and more desirable. However, such energy demand at 5x is an artificial human need that is predicted by RMI.org to result in four to five billion new window-mounted air conditioners by 2050 that will add even more to the global warming caused by increasing atmospheric carbon. By an examination of paleoclimatology for the past 420,000 years, it is demonstrable that reducing the concentration of this single most prolific heat-trapping gas by geoengineering back to pre-industrial levels of less than 300 ppm can actually give humankind a collective control over the world’s rapidly rising average global temperature and once more, a temperate climate to live in.

The Rise, Demise, and Reprise of the Increasingly Protracted APA Journal Article?
Authors: Webster Gregory D. , Wongsomboon Val , Mahar Elizabeth
Published: September 2020

Are APA journal articles getting longer or shorter over time? Earlier work that examined changes over time in article length in 24 APA journals (1986–2005) found that pages per article increased over time for the average journal, peaking around 2001, and then plateauing thereafter (Webster, 2007). But have these trends continued during the past 14 years? The current research extends prior work by adding additional years (1986–2019) and four additional journals (28 journals; 34 years; 865 total observations). Multilevel growth curve analyses revealed a cubic effect of time on average article length, showing an increase in the 1980s and 1990s, a plateau or slight decline in the 2000s, and a slight increase again in the 2010s. Journal impact factors (JIFs) moderated linear growth over time; journals with higher JIFs had larger linear increases in article length. Exploratory multilevel interrupted time-series analyses suggested that the average linear change in pages per article over time was more positive following the start of psychology’s credibility crisis (2012–2019) than before it (1986–2011), which may relate to an increased emphasis on reporting details and transparency. We discuss implications for article length in the contexts of publishing and psychology’s ongoing credibility crisis.

The Existence of Confucianism in spousal relationship nowadays
Authors: Phuc Vu Truc , Minh Ho Ngoc , Canh Tran Quang
Published: September 2020

Confucianism promotes "Fuchangfusui (Phu xướng phụ tùy)" which means "A wive must obey everything her husband says''. In Vietnam, the concept of husband and wife relationship is not exactly the same as "Fuchangfusui" initiated by Confucius. Culturally, Vietnam belongs to the group of countries influenced by Confucianism. However, since the feudal period, Vietnamese Confucianists have had many progressive views to affirm the position of wife towards her husband and towards her family. Husband and wife relationship in Vietnam has gained focus on obligations and responsibilities of both husband and wife with the notion that "Women handle household chores, men take care of work outside". This article examines the existence of the Confucianism in husband and wife relationship in Vietnam today. The authors made a comparison between the husband's and the wife's rights of making decisions related to economy and other decision-making rights as well, using descriptive statistical analysis, Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Generalized Method of Moments (GMM); for this, the authors set up a system of equations and at the same time, to evaluate the extent to which Confucianism elements exist in husband and wife relationship in Vietnam today. The analysis results show that Confucianism still influences and affects family relationship, but its impacts and influences in the era of integration are blurred, not as profound as in feudal times or in the first half of the twentieth century. In other words, the existence of Confucianism still exerts its impacts on a majority of Vietnamese families in terms of husband and wife relationship. However, the perception of family members' standards of behaviors has changed due to the influences of modern industrial society.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) has become a new reality at a global scale. The exponential growth of technology is changing many aspects of human lives including economy, culture, society and lifestyles while posing new challenges in the areas of workforce, state management and ethics in a digital age. This article serves as an introductory account to examine such issues and highlight the contribution of social sciences and humanities in raising awareness, skill training and shaping ethical values in the era of Industry 4.0. Social sciences and humanities may find opportunities in utilizing their advantages in provides the workforce with soft/transferrable skills, enhancing their capacities in optimizing technological advancements. Besides, the rise of artificial intelligence also put forward issues which requires expertise of social scientists and humanities scholars in order to ensure the harmony of technology and humanistic elements. We also argue that in order to take the most out of the technological advancements brought by the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the cooperation among social sciences and humanities, sciences and technology is extremely crucial.
Contemporary Discourse and the Oblique Narrative of Avant-gardism in Twentieth-Century Nigerian Art
Authors: Akapng Clement
Published: September 2020

The history of Twentieth Century Nigerian art is characterized by ambiguities that impede understanding of the underlying modernist philosophies that inspired modern art from the 1900s. In the past five decades, scholars have framed the discourse of Contemporary Nigerian Art to analyze art created during that period in Africa starting with Nigeria in order to differentiate it from that of Europe and America. However, this quest for differentiation has led to a mono-narrative which only partially analyze modernist tendencies in modern Nigerian art, thus, reducing its impact locally and globally. Adopting Content Analysis and Modernism as methodologies, this research subjected literature on Twentieth Century Nigerian art to critical analysis to reveal its grey areas, as well as draw upon recent theories by Chika Okeke-Agulu, Sylvester Ogbechie, Olu Oguibe and Okwui Enwezor to articulate the occurrence of a unique Nigerian avant-gardism blurred by the widely acclaimed discourse of contemporary Nigerian art. Findings reveal that the current discourse unwittingly frames Twentieth Century Nigerian art as a time-lag reactionary mimesis of Euro-American modernism. This research contends that such narrative blocks strong evidences of avant-garde tendencies identified in the works of Aina Onabolu, Ben Enwonwu, Uche Okeke and others, which exhibited intellectual use of the subversive powers of art for institutional/societal interrogation. Drawing upon modernist theories as a compass for analyzing the works of the aforementioned, this paper concludes that rather than being a mundane product of contemporaneity, Twentieth Century Nigerian art was inspired by decolonization politics and constituted a culture-specific avant-gardism in which art was used to enforce change. Thus, a new modern art discourse is proposed that will reconstruct Twentieth Century Nigerian art as an expression of modernism parallel to Euro-American modernism.

List Natana Glücksberga do Tadeusza Mostowskiego z 4 X 1820 r.
Authors: Słodkowska Elżbieta , Pasztaleniec-Jarzyńska Joanna
Published: September 2020

Artykuł stanowi edycję jednego z dokumentów związanych z warszawskim księgarzem Natanem Glücksbergiem (1780-1831). Jest to napisany po francuskulist z 4 X 1820 r. przechowywany w Archiwum Głównym Akt Dawnych w Warszawie w zbiorze korespondencji MinistraWyznań Religijnych i Oświecenia Publicznego Królestwa Polskiego Stanisława Potockiego (1755-1821), ale skierowany do Ministra Spraw Wewnętrznych i Policji Tadeusza Mostowskiego (1766-1842). List zawiera prośbę N. Glücksberga o wstawienie się za nim do cara rosyjskiego w sprawie przyznania mu praw obywatelskich. Żydzi pozbawieni byli w Królestwie Polskim nie tylko prawa wyborczego, ale ustawodawstwo ograniczało ich prawa do własności, działalności gospodarczej i do udziału w życiu publicznym. Utrudniało to działalność na rynku książki – drukarską, księgarską i wydawniczą. N. Glücksberg stopniowo poszerzał swoje możliwości, ale uzyskanie wszystkich praw obywatelskich ułatwiłoby mu rozwój własnego przedsiębiorstwa. Ponieważ taką sprawę mogła załatwić jedynie ustawa parlamentu, list N. Glücksberga nie mógł przynieść oczekiwanego rezultatu. Niemniej jednak dokument jest interesujący, ponieważ ukazuje sytuację osobistą, społeczną i działalność pierwszego w Warszawie księgarza, drukarza i wydawcy – Żyda. Artykuł składa się z dwóch części: obszernego, krytycznego wstępu Autorek i edycji samego listu.
In vitro screening of fungicides and plant extracts against six pathogenic fungi isolated from cotton (Gossypium arboreum L.) seed
Authors: Nahar Mst Nazin , Shamsi Shamim
Published: September 2020

Six pathogenic fungi, namely Aspergillus flavus Link., A. niger van Tieghem (Type-I)., Curvularia lunata (Wakker) Boedijn, Fusarium moniliforme var. subglutinans Wr. & Reink., Fusarium sporotrichioides Sherb., Mem. and Rhizoctonia solani J.G. Kuhn were isolated from cotton seeds. Five fungicides viz., Acrobat MZ, Autostin 50 WDG, Capvit 50 WP, Nativo 75 WP and Thiovit 80 WG were selected to evaluate in vitro efficacy at 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 ppm concentrations against pathogenic fungi following poisoned food technique. Out of 5 fungicides Nativo 75 WP showed the complete growth inhibition of above mentioned six pathogenic fungi at all the used concentrations. Autostin 50 WDG showed complete growth inhibition of all tested pathogenic fungi except Curvularia lunata. Leaf extract of five angiospermic plants viz., Adhatoda vasica, Aegle mermelos, Azadirachta indica, Datura metel and Psidium guajava were selected to evaluate in vitro fungitoxicity at 5, 10, 15 and 20% concentrations against the test pathogens. At 20% concentration, out of the 5 plants extracts A. indica was found to be most active to inhibit the growth of Aspergillus niger (Type-I) (65.56%) and Fusarium moniliforme var. subglutinans (75.00%), Psidium guajava were most active against A. flavus (81.29%) and Curvularia lunata (72.23%), and Datura metel was most active against Fusarium sporotrichioides (64.77%) and Rhizoctonia solani (42.44%).

This study discusses how the potential for literacy needed by education. Students’ literacy ability is closely related to the guidance of reading skills analytically, critically, and reflectively. However, the fact of learning at school this time has not been able to realize it well. Principals as leaders and at the same time policyholders must have the right strategy. This is a great homework for all educational institutions in Indonesia, including in the city of Kediri. This research uses qualitative methods with descriptive approaches, data collection methods in the form of, observation, interviews, and documentation. Checking the validity of the data using triangulation. Data analysis through steps, compile, manage, and combine all data obtained from the field so that it becomes a conclusion. The results of the study show that the principal’s strategy in improving reading literacy is for students, first, the level of habituation. Second, student literacy is directed at religious reading literacy. Third, forming a literacy team. This has not been said to be maximum because the school has obstacles. First, student reading facilities are the only libraries. Second, the delay in students can make students’ abilities, skills and insights different from a student who is disciplined.
Multi-scale analysis of migration processes in the South of Russia using geoinformation monitoring tools
Authors: Suprunchuk Ilya , Chikhichin Vasiliy , Polyan Pavel
Published: September 2020

The article considers the possibilities of using geoinformation systems for monitoring migration processes at different territorial levels. The concept of development and functioning of the system of geoinformation monitoring of migration processes in Russia is proposed. This system makes it possible to obtain, update and analyze information, provide process modeling, and develop effective management solutions. The geoinformation monitoring system is implemented on the basis of the Microsoft SQL Server relational database management system and the ESRI АгсGIS family of software products and consists of five key components: hardware, software, data, performers, and methods.

The study of modern migration processes at several territorial levels — from macro-regional to local-was carried out using the geo-information monitoring system. At the macro-regional level (for example, in the South of Russia), there is a differentiation of regions by the level of migration growth and the nature of migration processes. At the regional level of monitoring, the features of internal migration processes in the Stavropol territory are considered. The migration loss zone in the province covers almost all rural areas. Migration growth of the population is typical only for large cities and their suburban areas. At the local settlement level, the geo-information monitoring system makes it possible to study such characteristics of migration processes as the ethnic and social composition of migrants, the distribution of migrants by localities, and migration links between different territories.

The information content and effectiveness of ecological research of the territory can be improved using the methods of multivariate analysis and mapping of the results. The article presents the analysis and mapping results of spatial and temporal trends of hydrocarbon pollution in the Tromjegan river basin for the period 2006–2018 using the tools of ArcGIS Pro. The informational and basic research is the data of local environmental monitoring of licensed blocks of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug — Ugra.

Pollution analysis was carried out on the basis of a detailed study of the geography of the source data using statistical calculations (minimum, average, maximum distances between sampling points, Getis-Ord Gi* index). Thematic maps were constructed using data averaged over the year. The spatial and temporal dynamics of hydrocarbons concentration in surface waters for 2006–2018 is analyzed using the “Hot Spot Analysis” tool. A temporary cluster section of hydrocarbons average annual concentration according to the Getis-Ord Gi* indicator allowed us to identify trends in the dynamics of indicators. Maps of hydrocarbons average annual concentration were compiled and the results of a spatial-temporal analysis of hydrocarbons average annual concentration in surface waters were presented.

The identification of patterns in large arrays of long-term data and the consideration of the spatial component are necessary elements of modern environmental research. Analysis of the time series of average annual concentrations in the Tromjegan river basin showed a clear trend in the dynamics of hydrocarbon pollution. The findings can be the basis for making managerial decisions in the environmental monitoring of licensed blocks of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug — Ugra.
