Elevation-Dependent Trends in Precipitation Observed over and around the Tibetan Plateau from 1971 to 2017
Authors: Hu Wenfeng , Yao Junqiang , He Qing , Chen Jing
Published: October 2021

The Tibetan Plateau (TP) are regions that are most sensitive to climate change, especially extreme precipitation changes with elevation, may increase the risk of natural disasters and have attracted attention for the study of extreme events in order to identify adaptive actions. Based on daily observed data from 113 meteorological stations in the Tibetan Plateau and the surrounding regions in China during 1971–2017, we calculated the annual total precipitation and extreme precipitation indices using the R ClimDex software package and explored elevation-dependent precipitation trends. The results demonstrate that the annual total precipitation increased at a rate of 6.7 mm/decade, and the contribution of extreme precipitation to total precipitation increased over time, and the climate extremes were enhanced. The annual total, seasonal precipitation, and precipitation extreme trends were observed in terms of elevation dependence in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and the surrounding area of the Tibetan Plateau (TPS) during 1971–2017. There is growing evidence that the elevation-dependent wetting (EDWE) is complex over the TP. The trends in total precipitation have a strong dependence on elevation, and the EDWE is highlighted by the extreme precipitation indices, for example, the number of heavy precipitation days (R10) and consecutive wet days (CWD). The dependence of extreme precipitation on elevation is heterogeneous, as other extreme indices do not indicate EDWE. These findings highlight the precipitation complexity in the TP. The findings of this study will be helpful for improving our understanding of variabilities in precipitation and extreme precipitation in response to climate change and will provide support for water resource management and disaster prevention in plateaus and mountain ranges.

Published: October 2021

Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) aims to minimize liquid waste generation whilst extend water supply, and this industrial strategy has attracted renewed interest worldwide in recent years. In spite of the advantages such as reduced water pollution and resource recovery from waste, there are several challenges to overcome prior to wider applications of ZLD. This study will examine the main processes involved in ZLD, and analyze their limitations and potential solutions. This study also differs from past reviews on the subject, by providing a summary of the challenges that were found light of in prevalent studies. To fulfill the sustainable vision, future research that can bridge the gap between the theoretical study and industrial practice is highlighted.
Comparison of Different Procedures for Separating Microplastics from Sediments
Authors: Nava Veronica , Leoni Barbara
Published: October 2021

The separation of microplastics from environmental matrices is still challenging, especially for sediments where microplastics can accumulate affecting benthic organisms. Many authors have adopted different procedures, but their effectiveness has been rarely compared. The present study aims to compare the recovery rate of three different methodologies for the separation of dense microplastics from fine sediments and provide insights about contamination processes occurring in microplastic separation techniques. The protocols tested are a density separation method with NaCl and NaI, a density separation with NaI followed by a centrifugation step, and a digestion method with 10%KOH (m/v). The recovery yields of two high-density polymers of three different dimensional classes were tested. The highest recovery rate was reported for the first protocol. However, this method proved to be expensive, and unsatisfactory results were found when using merely NaCl. The digestion method was the one that was proven to be simple, reproducible, and affordable. The contamination tests highlighted as multiple filtration steps can increase the number of fibers deriving from airborne contamination. Since a unified approach for microplastic separation from sediments is still not selected, this study is of paramount importance as it provides data about the reliability of different methods widely adopted.
The Effect of Water Vapor Originating from Land on the 2018 Drought Development in Europe
Authors: Al Hasan Fares , Link Andreas , van der Ent Ruud J.
Published: October 2021

The 2018 summer drought in Europe was particularly extreme in terms of intensity and impact due to the combination of low rainfall and high temperatures. However, it remains unclear how this drought developed in time and space in such an extreme way. In this study we aimed to get a better understanding of the role of land–atmosphere interactions. More specifically, we investigated whether there was a change in water vapor originating from land, if that caused a reduction in rainfall, and by this mechanism possibly the propagation and intensification of the drought in Europe. Our first step was to use remote sensing products for soil moisture content (SMC) and the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to see where the 2018 drought started and how it developed in time and space. Our SMC and NDVI analysis showed that the 2018 drought started to impact the soil and vegetation state in June in Scandinavia and the British Isles. After that it moved towards the west of Europe where it intensified in July and August. In September, it started to decay. In October, drought was observed in Southeast Europe as well. Based on the observed patterns we divided Europe into six regions of similar spatiotemporal characteristics of SMC and NDVI. Then, we used a global gridded dataset of the fate of land evaporation (i.e., where it ends up as precipitation) to investigate whether the drought intensification and propagation was impacted by the reduction in water vapor transported from the regions that first experienced the drought. This impact was investigated by identifying the anomalies in the water vapor originating from land recycling, imports, and exports within Europe during the spring, summer, and autumn seasons. From these regions we identified four drought regions and investigated the changes in water vapor originating from source regions on the development of drought in those regions. It was found that during the onset phase of the 2018 drought in Europe that the water vapor originating from land played an important role in mitigating the precipitation anomalies as, for example, the share of land evaporation contributing to precipitation increased from 27% (normal years) to 38% (2018) during July in the west of Europe. Land evaporation played a minor role in amplifying it during the intensification phase of the drought as the share of land evaporation contribution to precipitation decreased from 23% (normal years) to 21% (2018) during August in the west of Europe. These findings are somewhat in contrast to similar studies in other continents that found the land surface to play a strong amplifying role for drought development. Subsequently, we found that the relative increase in the amount of land water vapor originating from eastern half of Europe played a role in delaying the onset and accelerating the decay of the 2018 drought in the west of Europe.

Published: October 2021

Pharmaceuticals, fundamental in therapy and the prevention of known pathologies, are responsible for environmental pollution. These substances, called “emerging contaminants,” are harmful to human health because they enter the environment in quantities exceeding the natural self-capacity purification of the ecosystems. Furthermore, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) cannot remove these substances, which can undergo chemical/biological transformations in the environment, thus forming by-products, sometimes more toxic than the parent molecules; successively, they move into rivers and could reach the drinking water supplies. All these phenomena represent a severe public health problem. Therefore, the Water Framework Directive by European Union imposed the monitoring of drugs’ levels in aqueous matrices. Every two years, the EU carefully updates the list of potential water pollutants, called the Watch List, including pharmaceuticals, to evaluate their risk on the aquatic environment. The last Commission Implementing Decision (EU 2018/840) comprises several substances of primary concern. In addition, the scientific community is giving particular attention to other pharmaceuticals not yet on the Watch list, whose markets are in growth; particularly, the Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors used for the pharmaceutical treatment of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. This review discusses the presence of PDE-5 inhibitors in environmental systems, their toxic effects, the different kinds of removal, and the analytical methods normally adopted for their detection. In addition, the study helps figure out the best possible strategy to tackle pharmaceutical pollution by using analytical and advanced diagnostic methods.
Hydrogeochemical Variability of the Acidic Springs in the Rio Tinto Headwaters
Authors: Allman Christopher John , Gómez-Ortiz David , Burke Andrea , Amils Ricardo , Rodriguez Nuria , Fernández-Remolar David
Published: October 2021

Peña de Hierro, located in southwest Spain, encompasses the springs and headwaters for the Rio Tinto River that emerge above normal faults and has been mined for its rich sulfide ore since 2500 BC. The springs are typically characterized by an orange coloration, typical pH of ~2.33, and contain elevated concentrations of heavy metals that are produced by acid rock drainage (ARD). ARD is a natural phenomenon that results from chemolithoautotrophs metabolizing the sulfide ore. Mining has amplified the magnitude of the acidity and concentrations of heavy metals evidenced within sedimentary cores from the Huelva estuary. Acidity, redox state, hydrochemistry and isotopic analyses were examined for the purpose of characterizing the subsurface flows and determining the interconnectivity of the groundwaters. Previous studies have documented the geochemistry of the springs, dating a select few, yet many springs remain uncharacterized. Acidity presented spatial variability throughout the field area, caused by extensive sulfide interactions which generated and modified the pH. Redox exhibited a large range of values due to oxygen diffusivity though the fracture network. The surrounding geology is highly heterogeneous because of intensive deformation during the Variscan and Tertiary periods, and this heterogeneity is shown in the varied aqueous chemistry. Fractionation patterns observed in δ2H and δ18O values predominantly reflected enrichment by intensive evaporation and depletion in δ18O as a result of the proposed sulfatic-water model for Rio Tinto’s hydrogeology. The analysis illustrates minimal hydrologic interconnectivity, evidenced by the extensive physical and chemical contrasts within such a small proximity.
Calibration of CFD Numerical Model for the Analysis of a Combined Caisson
Authors: Iuppa Claudio , Carlo Lilia , Foti Enrico , Faraci Carla
Published: October 2021

The purpose of this work is the calibration of a numerical model for simulating the interaction of waves with a composite caisson having an internal rubble mound to dissipate incident sea wave energy. In particular, the analysis focused on the reflection coefficient and the pressure distribution at the caisson vertical walls. The numerical model is based on the Volume-Average Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (VARANS) equations. Through three closure terms (linear, nonlinear, and transition), such equations take into account some phenomena that cannot be dealt when the volume-average method is used (i.e., frictional forces, pressure force, and added mass). To reproduce properly the real phenomena, a calibration process of such terms is necessary. The reference data used in the calibration process were obtained from an experimental campaign carried out at the Hydraulics Laboratory of the University of Messina. The calibration process allowed the proper prediction of certain phenomena to be expressed as a function of different closing terms. In particular, it was estimated that the reflection coefficient and the wave loading at the frontal wall are better reproduced when all three terms are considered, while the force at the rear wall is better simulated when the effects of such terms are neglected.

Authors: Lukanin Dmitriy Vladimirovich , Rodoman Grigory Vladimirovich , Sokolov Alexey Alexeevich , Klimenko Marina Sergeevna
Published: October 2021

Among all the anatomical variants for the hiatal hernia development, a true paraesophageal hernia is the most rare. The clinical manifestations of this type of hiatal hernia are caused by the infringement of the diaphragmatic crus or by transient obstruction of the esophagus with the development of organic dysphagia. The leading method of instrumental diagnostics of this pathology is contrast x-ray study of the esophagus and stomach with functional tests. The article describes a clinical case of an incorrect interpretation of the symptoms of the disease and the results of EGD in favor of paraesophageal hernia in association with GERD in a patient with a large white line hernia under conditions of migration into the hernial sac of the stomach and duodenum.
The use of the negative pressure wound therapy in management of the perineal wounds after abdominal-perineal extirpation (literature review)
Authors: Musin Alexey , Kornev Leonid , Povarichina Olga , Naumov Evgeny
Published: October 2021

The review presents data from the analysis of the literature on various options of using negative pressure wound therapy after abdominal-perineal extirpation of the rectum. We have selected 10 scientific papers for analysis, and no randomized trials have been found in the literature. The use of local negative pressure led to an acceleration of tissue repair and a decrease in complications in the perineal wound area. However, at the moment, the data presented in the literature are insufficient for an objective assessment of the effectiveness of the technique. It is necessary to conduct randomized trials to objectively evaluate the methodology.
Gabor and Maximum Response Filters with Random Forest Classifier for Face Recognition in the Wild
Authors: See Yuen-Chark , Liew Eugene , Mohd Noor Norliza
Published: October 2021

Research on face recognition has been evolving for decades. There are numerous approaches developed with highly desirable outcomes in constrained environments. In contrast, approaches to face recognition in an unconstrained environment where varied facial posing, occlusion, aging, and image quality still pose vast challenges. Thus, face recognition in the unconstrained environment still an unresolved problem. Many current techniques are not performed well when experimented in unconstrained databases. Additionally, most of the real-world application needs a good face recognition performance in the unconstrained environment. This paper presents a comprehensive process aimed to enhance the performance of face recognition in an unconstrained environment. This paper presents a face recognition system in an unconstrained environment. The fusion between Gabor filters and Maximum Response (MR) filters with Random Forest classifier is implemented in the proposed system. Gabor filters are a hybrid of Gabor magnitude filters and Oriented Gabor Phase Congruency (OGPC) filters. Gabor magnitude filters produce the magnitude response while the OGPC filters produce the phase response of Gabor filters. The MR filters contain the edge- and bar-anisotropic filter responses and isotropic filter responses. In the face features selection process, Monte Carlo Uninformative Variable Elimination Partial Least Squares Regression (MC-UVE-PLSR) is used to select the optimal face features in order to minimize the computational costs without compromising the accuracy of face recognition. Random Forests is used in the classification of the generated feature vectors. The algorithm performance is evaluated using two unconstrained facial image databases: Labelled Faces in the Wild (LFW) and Unconstrained Facial Images (UFI). The proposed technique used produces encouraging results in these evaluated databases in which it recorded face recognition rates that are comparable with other state-of-the-art algorithms.
Suitability for Kidney Transplantation in AL Amyloidosis: A Survey Study of Transplant and Amyloidosis Physicians
Authors: Lam Robert , Lim Mary Ann , Dember Laura M.
Published: October 2021

Key Points

Patient survival was viewed by amyloidosis and transplant program respondents as the most important determinant of transplant suitability.

Amyloidosis program respondents were less concerned than transplant program respondents about extrarenal involvement.

Overall, there was a lack of consensus across specialties about criteria for kidney transplantation for patients with amyloid light chain amyloidosis.

Background

Historically, kidney transplantation has been considered inappropriate for most patients with AL amyloidosis–associated kidney failure because of concerns about recurrent disease in the allograft and poor long-term survival. With improvements in rates and durability of hematologic responses and survival that have accompanied treatment advances, a greater proportion of patients with AL amyloidosis may be suitable for kidney transplantation. However, there are no widely accepted criteria for kidney transplant eligibility for this patient population.

Methods

We administered surveys electronically to transplant nephrologists and amyloidosis experts at a geographically diverse set of academic medical centers in the United States. Questions were designed to elucidate views about suitability and timing of kidney transplantation for patients with AL amyloidosis–associated kidney failure.

Results

The survey was completed by 20 (65%) of invited amyloidosis experts and 20 (29%) of invited transplant physicians. Respondents indicated that, for patients with AL amyloidosis, most transplant nephrologists have limited experience with both determining eligibility for and providing care after kidney transplantation. Most transplant nephrologists and amyloidosis experts viewed anticipated patient survival as the most important determinant of suitability for kidney transplantation. Compared with transplant program respondents, amyloidosis program respondents reported a higher degree of confidence in determining suitability for kidney transplantation, were comfortable proceeding with kidney transplantation earlier after patients attained a hematologic response, and were less concerned about extrarenal amyloid involvement as a barrier to kidney transplantation. In both groups, most respondents indicated that there is a lack of consensus between amyloidosis and kidney transplant physicians about criteria for determining suitability for kidney transplantation.

Conclusion

Views about criteria for kidney transplantation for patients with AL amyloidosis–associated kidney failure differed between amyloidosis and transplant nephrology program respondents, with amyloidosis specialists generally favoring a less-restrictive approach to transplant eligibility. The findings suggest a need for consensus building across specialties.
Héctor Belascoarán Shayne: el espacio de la ciudad y las masculinidades hegemónicas
Authors: Sosa Cristina Patricia , Moreyra Verónica
Published: October 2021

En este trabajo nos proponemos abordar una serie de novelas de Paco Ignacio Taibo II protagonizadas por Héctor Belascoarán Shayne, personaje en el que hay resonancias de la novela policial negra estadounidense. Intentaremos trazar un perfil del célebre detective desde una perspectiva de género, subrayando en particular el concepto de masculinidad. Nos interesa indagar cómo esta figura y otros personajes que pueblan el universo ficcional construido por el autor encarnan un distanciamiento o se acercan al género en dos de sus sentidos: como matriz de identidad y como forma literaria. Nuestro corpus está compuesto por las novelas Días de combate (1976), No habrá final feliz (1989) y Muertos incómodos (2005), esta última escrita con el Subcomandante Marcos del Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN). En constante movimiento por la ciudad de México, espacio en el que reina la impunidad y donde la justicia se vuelve imposible, el detective muestra la sordidez de crímenes que por momentos parecen estar resueltos de antemano; subyace la idea de que todo crimen es crimen de Estado. Mientras vive sus aventuras, Belascoarán Shayne presenta a los lectores un bosquejo de teorización sobre la masculinidad, el ser mexicano y el género policial.
Representación y desmitificación del asesino en serie en la trilogía Morirás mañana de Jaime Bayly
Authors: Koo Pedro G.
Published: October 2021

Este ensayo explora la representación del asesino en serie en la trilogía Morirás mañana de Jaime Bayly. Considerada la expresión más violenta de la masculinidad, el asesino en serie se ha convertido en un ícono cultural debido a la gran atención tanto en los medios como en la literatura. Este trabajo propone que Morirás mañana evita imitar el modelo originario del subgénero de asesino en serie mediante la subversión de las convenciones del modelo, tales como la presencia de representantes de la ley y el restablecimiento del statu quo. La transgresión se manifiesta también en la elección de una estructura narrativa y de un punto de vista diferentes, al igual que en la inserción de este personaje en un contexto de anomia donde la falta de fe en el orden social y en la justicia es la norma. Este trabajo también estudia la singular representación del asesino en serie, Javier Garcés, personaje que dista de la imagen tradicional puesto que su violencia no va dirigida exclusivamente a las mujeres ni es de naturaleza sexual. Este trabajo concluye que, debido a la transgresión del subgénero y a la representación no genérica del homicida, la obra de Bayly desmitifica la figura del asesino serial.
Tensiones de la paternidad y la masculinidad en el cine negro argentino (1946-1952)
Authors: Giacomelli Daniel
Published: October 2021

Analizaremos en El ángel desnudo (Carlos Hugo Christensen, 1946), El crimen de Oribe (Leopoldo Torres Ríos y Leopoldo Torre Nilsson, 1950), La bestia debe morir (Román Viñoly Barreto, 1952) y La encrucijada (Leopoldo Torres Ríos, 1952) una serie de elementos que problematizan la paternidad a través de argumentos afines al cine negro. Si bien la familia es una noción prevalente en los argumentos de las películas realizadas desde antes del inicio de la etapa industrial del cine argentino, nuestra intención es inspeccionar sus reconfiguraciones en un género de carácter crítico-social como lo es el cine negro, a la vez que reconocemos su connotación particular con respecto a la desintegración de las familias y las identidades masculinas y femeninas. Tendremos en cuenta la manera en la que en los films influyen, por un lado, el debate contemporáneo acerca de la crisis de la familia nuclear tradicional, en el centro de la escena por la pugna entre el Estado y la Iglesia Católica en cuanto a los roles de los padres y las madres, y, por otro, la promoción de derechos de los hijos ilegítimos que el Estado llevaba adelante.

We report a novel Mn-Co-Ni-O (MCN) nanocomposite in which the p-type semiconductivity of Mn-Co-Ni-O can be manipulated by addition of graphene. With an increase of graphene content, the semiconductivity of the nanocomposite can be tuned from p-type through electrically neutral to n-type. The very low effective mass of electrons in graphene facilitates electron tunneling into the MCN, neutralizing holes in the MCN nanoparticles. XPS analysis shows that the multivalent manganese ions in the MCN nanoparticles are chemically reduced by the graphene electrons to lower-valent states. Unlike traditional semiconductor devices, electrons are excited from the filled graphite band into the empty band at the Dirac points from where they move freely in the graphene and tunnel into the MCN. The new composite film demonstrates inherent flexibility, high mobility, short carrier lifetime, and high carrier concentration. This work is useful not only in manufacturing flexible transistors, FETs, and thermosensitive and thermoelectric devices with unique properties but also in providing a new method for future development of 2D-based semiconductors.

Power Frequency Еlectromagnetic Fields of Electrical Installations in Buildings
Authors: Nikitina VN , Kalinina NI , Lyashko GG , Dubrovskaya EN , Plekhanov VP
Published: October 2021

Introduction: All components of the power supply system are sources of electric and magnetic fields of industrial frequency of 50 Hz, both posing risks to human health. Estimation of predicted magnetic field levels from switchboards and transformers inside buildings is challenging and implies the importance of full-scale measurements of electromagnetic fields from built-in electrical equipment.
Objectives: To establish the levels of 50 Hz electromagnetic fields during operation of built-in electrical installations in industrial, public, and residential premises.
Materials and methods: We studied 50 Hz electromagnetic fields generated by electrical installations located in buildings.
EMF levels were measured near transformers, switchboards, and switchgear. The electromagnetic situation in the rooms above the electrical equipment was investigated. The assessment of EMF levels was carried out in accordance with the current hygienic standards.
Results: The intensity of electric fields near the equipment and in the surveyed premises was significantly lower than that of magnetic fields. The excess of maximum permissible levels at workplaces of operators servicing EMF sources in residential buildings was not detected. In the rooms of public buildings located above electrical installations, measured values of magnetic field induction ranged from 0.18 to 31 µT. The intensity of magnetic fields depended on the current load and the distance from EMF sources.
Discussion: Electromagnetic field intensity depends on specifications of equipment, current loads, and distances from the sources of electromagnetic fields. Induction of 50 Hz magnetic fields in adjacent rooms may exceed hygienic standards set
for residential and public buildings. Additional adverse factors include instability of magnetic fields caused by current load changes and significant magnetic field gradients in premises.

Published: October 2021

O processo da formação socioespacial do território brasileiro priorizou a supressão da vegetação nativa para o desenvolvimento de atividades antrópicas. Essa mudança nos usos e cobertura da terra, ocorrida por períodos sucessivos, acarretou em impactos ambientais, tais como: erosão, assoreamento e enchente, além do comprometimento da qualidade e da quantidade das águas superficiais. Diante do cenário apresentado, a manutenção e reparação das matas ciliares são de fundamental importância para os ecossistemas e para a sociedade. Este trabalho tem por objetivo analisar os usos e cobertura da terra nas áreas de preservação permanente da bacia do rio Anhumas no município de Ribeirão Claro/PR, no ano de 2020, e confrontá-las com a legislação vigente. Para sua viabilização, foram elaborados banco de dados e mapas temáticos de uso e cobertura da terra a partir de produtos do sensoriamento remoto e das técnicas do geoprocessamento. Os resultados obtidos apontam que a bacia do rio Anhumas encontra-se muito alterada, principalmente no que diz respeito às APPs, local que predomina a pastagem em detrimento da cobertura florestal, fato que contribui para o acúmulo de sedimentos nos leitos e talvegue dos rios.
