Authors: Muzher Jar Hassan  , Ghazi Atiya Zarraq
Published: December 2022

The area of the study is located in northern Iraq on the western side opposite the confluence of the Tigris River with the upper Zab tributary, about 45 km southeast of the city of Mosul within the Hamrin-Makhoul zone belonging to the foothills zone within the unstable area. The area contains rocks of many formations ranging in age from the Lower Miocene to the Quaternary, and includes the formations of the Euphrates, Fatha, and Quaternary deposits. Sulfur deposits are present in the Fatha formation within the productive bed which contains three major sulfur-bearing horizons or zones separated by several heterogeneous layers of marly claystone and dolomite limestone of different thicknesses. The formation of sulfur due to the processes of reducing gypsum or anhydrite with the availability of hydrocarbons and the action of anaerobic bacteria, where hydrogen sulfide gas H2S is produced, which is later oxidized by groundwater, forming sulfur ore with the help of other factors represented by tectonic and hydrogeological factors.
The mineral reserves of sulfur deposits were recalculated and estimated using the geostatistical method, as it is one of the modern applications adopted in the Rockwork-14 program, which takes into account the location of each model in relation to the other within the mineral deposits extensions and even outside the boundaries of those extensions, which gives high accuracy and reliability about the amount of reserves depending on the group Among the important criteria, such as thickness, concentration of the ore, and density, the reserve of sulfur in the Mishraq sulfur field-1 was estimated at 121,230,554,68 tons.
The validity and suitability of using the open mine method for extracting sulfur in the study area was discussed based on a decisive and important  factor, which is the stripping ratio, which determines the type of appropriate extractive method, and it was equal to 6 for the entire study area, a large value that exceeded the maximum  permissible limit of  5. This method is not economically feasible due to the high extractive cost and the presence of sulfur at different depths ranging between 80-230 m as well as the presence of environmental and geological problems that hinder the use of this method in sulfur extraction.
The study was based on the data obtained for a group of (9) exploratory wells that were drilled in the region.

Published: December 2022

The subject of the study is to identify effective methods of legislative work to counteract the use by telephone fraudsters of such technical means as illegal substitution of SIM cards and Internet services for substitution of incoming call numbers. The general scientific methodology of dialectical (meaningful) logic and comparative analysis of practical problems and legislative activity of federal authorities are used. Fraud causes huge damage to society and incurs huge costs to the state. The global spread of the Internet has allowed scammers to export their activities to a fast-growing market and attract previously untapped consumers. The evolution of technologies and the spread of fraudulent approaches on the Internet have exacerbated the problems faced by victims. The results serve as evidence that when detecting and timely stopping attempts at telephone fraud (suspending suspicious transactions), legislative support and the formation of a subordinate regulatory framework are necessary for the interaction of financial organizations, telecommunications operators and law enforcement agencies. The development of smartphones and cellular networks increases the need for mobile advertising and targeted marketing. However, it also causes invisible security threats. We have found that phone fraud with fake phone numbers with a very short service life is becoming more and more popular and is being used to deceive users. The article is devoted to the consideration of the problem of legal regulation to ensure information security. As phone fraud becomes more common, it is extremely important to understand how to increase the effectiveness of prevention. Conclusions are drawn about the need to strengthen the centralization of countering intruders in order to increase the effectiveness of preventing telephone fraud, following the example of creating an interbank digital platform "Know your Customer".

The author considers geortonyms as one of the varieties of modern advertising names: the subject of the study were the names of art projects of the State Tretyakov Gallery of the last 5 years, the purpose of the study is the mechanisms and specifics of the implementation of the main functions of these commercial nominations. To analyze the structure, semantics and stylistic features of geortonyms from the point of view of their functioning, special linguistic methods of functional-structural and contextual-interpretative analysis, as well as the linguopragmatic method were used. Special attention is paid to the study of those components of the studied nominations, with the help of which an effective impact on the target audience is carried out. It is established that the names of art projects implement an informative function that allows identifying the named object, while simultaneously solving informative and educational tasks, as well as an advertising function that involves managing the attention of the target audience in combination with influencing its emotions. The ultimate goal of creating geortonyms of the studied group is the possibility of influencing the behavior of the addressee. The most significant elements of the structural organization of the analyzed nominations and the linguistic expressive means used in their creation, which contribute to the implementation of the specified set of functions, are identified. The obtained results contribute to the study of a specific group of modern advertising names – the names of art projects that play an important role in the modern cultural space. Among all types of names of festive events, this thematic group is the least studied, in this regard, the analysis of these names allows us to obtain new data on how to implement the main functions of geortonyms – this determines the scientific novelty of the study.
TV Series as a Value Barometer of Image Media
Authors: Liu Xin
Published: December 2022

The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the functioning of the television series genre within the framework of the development of modern mass screen media culture. The author conducts a thorough analytical review of modern scientific research in order to summarize the most important theoretical provisions on the basis of which the author builds a study of the Chinese television series "Symphonic Novel" in the aspect of actualization of social and national cultural values. The author suggests structural parameters and criteria for the distribution of values on the scale of the value barometer, depending on the possibilities of their influence on the formation of the image through the media images of the TV series. In the course of the study of its value potential, the author comes to the conclusion about the specific role of the value of "classical music", which allows reformatting the general list of values broadcast in a television series through a system of characters, storylines, motives. A television series shown abroad as a product of modern media culture can become an effective tool of "soft power of influence" due to the peculiarities of the value content of its media images. The value paradigm of the television series "Symphonic Novel", responding to the key positions of scientific and theoretical approaches to the study of the television series as a symbiosis of socio-cultural and media-cultural characteristics of the national-cultural mentality of the Chinese, at the same time becomes more flexible under the influence of the value of classical music, which as a leitmotif accompanies the disclosure of all other values in the development of the television series narrative. At the same time, the value of classical music does not distort or detract from other values, but shows their image potential. The role and place of the TV series as a hybrid genre based on the interaction of art and media communication in the structure of a multi-tiered image strategy is that the media images created in the TV series at the intersection and in the convergent interaction of genre characteristics of artistry and media communication acquire a special value potential that allows influencing the audience and forming its idea of the subject of the media message.

The subject of the study is an intertextual dialogue between V.Y. Bryusov and Paul Verlaine based on the poem "Croquis parisienne" ("Parizhskoe croquis"). The object of the research is the ways and means of forming intertextual and intercultural dialogue in poetic translations of the Silver Age. The authors consider in detail such aspects of the topic as the unique word usage of the word "croquis" in the use of V.Y. Bryusov, reinforcing the conclusions with quotations from the National Corpus of the Russian language. Special attention is paid to the exclusive use of the word "croquis" as a genre mark, which corresponds to the extensive tactics of mastering genres by V.Y. Bryusov both in translations and in original poetry. The main conclusions of the study are the means allocated by the authors to implement intertextual dialogue in translation: the changes made by the translator to the original text strengthen the dialogic component of the picture developed by the author and weaken the motive of existential loneliness presented in the original text. A special contribution of the authors to the study of the topic is the identification in the translation work of V.Y. Bryusov of the original genre of the ekphrasic type - "croquis"-a sketch associated with the visual and verbal representation of the image. The novelty of the research lies in a detailed description of this impressionistic poetic genre and tracing its semantic and aesthetic connections with the fundamental attitudes of Impressionism in painting.

Particular attention is paid to highlighting and analyzing the significance of handshake modalities during the welcoming ceremony. The conducted research provides information about the meaning of the handshake and the role of other non-verbal modalities: distance, gestures, gaze and facial expressions, which are designed to demonstrate politeness in a communicative situation. A special contribution of the authors to the study of the topic is to identify the function and meaning of various modalities during a handshake. The study helps to study the expression of politeness in various modalities during a welcome ceremony. The novelty of the study lies in the analysis of etiquette in terms of multimodality. Using the ELAN software, the modalities of the handshake at the ceremony are displayed visually, which allows statistical methods to match verbal and non-verbal elements during the handshake.
The Moon and the Sun in Kalmyk Mythology
Authors: Chalbanova Karina Vyacheslavovna
Published: December 2022

This article is devoted to the analysis of Kalmyk cosmogonic myths about the Sun and the Moon. The author's task is to analyze the myths in the collections, to show that, despite the records or publications in different years, the general culture influenced the cosmogonic mythology of the Kalmyks. The subject of the study is plots, images and other elements of Kalmyk oral narratives about heavenly bodies. The main material of the study is the texts of Kalmyk myths recorded by researchers of the Kalmyk Scientific Center in the regions of Kalmykia and published in the volume "Myths, Legends and Legends of the Kalmyks" of the "Code of Kalmyk Folklore", and the material printed in the collection "Seven Stars" was also used. The novelty of the research lies in the analysis of cosmogonic myths presented in two collections published at different times. The main conclusion of the study is the fact that there are several versions of the myth of the Arach, which are different versions of the same plot. The appearance of the Sun and Moon is mentioned only in a few myths, in which they appear from the waters of the ocean in different ways: knocking down water with a mountain, with the help of a huge pump, with a blow of a sharp spear. Kalmyk cosmogonic myths explain not only the birth of the Sun and Moon, but also solar and lunar eclipses. This plot is quite widespread among the Mongolian peoples. In all the myths described above, the Sun and the Moon help Vajrapani Gegyan catch the Arach and cut it in two. The lower part descends to the ground, the upper part rises to the sky. Lunar and solar eclipses found a peculiar reflection in the consciousness of the ancestors. The peculiarity of the Kalmyk cosmogonic myths indicates the desire of the ancestors to know the world.

The Guayas estuary in Ecuador is the largest estuarine ecosystem on the Pacific coast of South America. This estuary provides nurseryand fisheries habitats, as well as filtering and detoxification services provided by suspension feeders, vegetation, and wetlands. Weused oceanographic and meteorological observations to understand the hydrodynamic variability of two areas in the inner part ofthe estuary, Manglares de Churute and Estero Salado, from February 2016 to February 2017. Churute has less anthropogenic impacts thanEstero Salado, which is currently uncoupled from river flow and highly influenced by Guayaquil, the second largest city in Ecuador, andadjacent shrimp pond effluents. The influences from the ocean and river on Churute include higher dissolved oxygen (DO) and lower salinity,temperature and phosphates than in Estero Salado, particularly during the wet season when the river is the dominant mode of forcing inthose warm and rainy first months of the year. Hypoxic levels (DO below 2 mg L-1) were found in Estero Salado in several stations duringthe hot, rainy season. These data suggest seasonal variability (dry/rainy season) influences the hydrographic conditions in the inner Guayasestuary mostly, adding variability to salinity, turbidity, nutrients and DO of the whole water column.
Mapping of mudflats with UAV images in La Bocana de Iscuandé, Colombian Pacific coast

Conservation planning for marine-coastal environments requires updated and detailed maps; the aim of this work is to generate detailed maps for two mudflats in the Iscuandé River Delta (Bocana de Iscuandé) in the Colombian Pacific Coast (Department of Nariño). These are important areas for fauna, especially migratory shorebirds. To address this problem, this study investigated the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as an alternative for collecting detailed mapping information in areas of difficult access using photogrammetric methodsand a geographic information system (GIS). UAV images were used to generate maps with a high level of detail at a scale of 1:10,000 that include detailed information about environments such as mudflats and mangroves which had not been mapped before. UAVs are a practical tool for mapping places where weather and access conditions hinder the use of satellite images or conventional aerial photography. They are also useful for mapping areas with high temporal and spatial variability, such as mudflats, where other platforms may not reveal their short-term dynamics. Our results show that this technique has a high potential for mapping such environments, and reveal that the Iscuandé mudflats aremaintained by a relative equilibrium between the ebb and flow of waves and tides, and are also influenced by the local climate. This type of application provides critical data for conservation and management strategies of areas with great ecological importance.
Las esponjas en el Perú y su potencial como fuente de compuestos antibacterianos
Authors: Cóndor Luján Báslavi Marisbel , Francia Quiroz Juan Carlos
Published: December 2022

En las últimas décadas, las esponjas se han perfilado como la mayor fuente de principios activos de origen animal, con fines farmacéuticos. En el Perú, la información sobre estos animales es incipiente y dispersa, lo cual limita la toma de medidas correctas para su adecuado manejo, aprovechamiento y conservación. El objetivo de este estudio es brindar una actualización sobre los alcances y perspectivas de la investigación sobre esponjas en el Perú, con énfasis en la riqueza de especies y su potencial antibacteriano. Asimismo, se revisan las iniciativas de investigación de otros países del Pacífico sudamericano. Los esfuerzos de investigación en el Perú han permitido la descripción de 46 especies; sin embargo, se considera que la riqueza se encuentra aún subestimada. Por otro lado, en otras latitudes, se han aislado principios activos con actividad antimicrobiana de por lo menos 36 especies pertenecientes a 11 de los 25 géneros registrados para el Perú (44 %), sugiriendo el alto potencial de las esponjas peruanas como fuente de metabolitos antibacterianos. Se concluye que la implementación de proyectos que integren la investigación de esponjas a diferentes escalas es necesaria para contribuir al desarrollo de planes de innovación y bionegocios en las industrias pesquera, acuícola, y farmacéutica.

El microfitobentos es una comunidad que agrupa a los microorganismos fotosintéticos bentónicos. En Venezuela y el resto de los países del mar Caribe, este grupo ha sido escasamente estudiado, por lo que se desconoce su diversidad. Así, se propuso describir las variaciones espaciales y temporales de su composición y abundancia en la zona costera central de Venezuela. Los muestreos fueron realizados mensualmente desde junio 2014 hasta marzo 2015, en estaciones aleatorias con profundidades inferiores a 20 m. Los datos de riqueza y abundancia fueron procesados mediante pruebas de hipótesis multivariadas (Anosim – SIMPER – nMDS). Se identificaron 327 especies, dominadas por diatomeas y dinoflagelados, sin variaciones espaciales y temporales notables. En términos de abundancia, el grupo más representativo fue el de las diatomeas (68 %), seguido por las cianobacterias (28 %). El microfitobentos presentó una variabilidad temporal en la que se alcanzaron densidades mayores entre julio y agosto, mientras que el resto de los meses presentaron abundancias similares. En términos generales, se obtuvo abundancia estándar de acuerdo con lo encontrado en otras áreas del mundo, con diferencias notables entre el microfitobentos de los sustratos evaluados y una riqueza específica alta que se mantiene constante durante todo el año.

Published: December 2022

Un análisis de cadena de valor de la pesquería de arrastre en el Pacífico mostró que más del 50 % de los empleos generados en esta pesquería son ocupados por mujeres, y que la mitad de estos son aportados por las platoneras del distrito de  Buenaventura. Las platoneras son mujeres afrodescendientes comercializadoras de productos pesqueros basados en las capturas incidentales de esta pesquería y que hacen parte integral de la pesquería de arrastre. Desconociéndose el aporte a la economía local y al sector pesquero, este estudio describe el rol de las platoneras en la pesquería para realizar un mapeo de la cadena de valor sensible al género y nutrición. Para esto, se aplicaron entrevistas a 123 platoneras en cinco puntos de comercialización del distrito. El análisis mostró que ellas perciben en promedio $87.500 COP diarios. La edad promedio es de 50 años y 94 % se encuentran afiliadas al sistema de salud bajo régimen subsidiado. Las platoneras comercializan alrededor de 60 productos y su papel es clave para el dinamismo del sector pesquero, la economía y la tradición gastronómica local.
