Published: April 2022

Mast cell tumor (MCT) is a frequent cutaneous tumor in dogs, with a variable biological behavior. Studies correlate cytologic and histopathologic features of MCTs with their biological behavior, prognosis, and response to treatment. The use of preoperative opioids is common in canine patients undergoing surgical removal of these tumors. Certain opioids can induce or downregulate mast cell degranulation and influence cancer progression. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the administration of morphine or butorphanol during surgical excision of canine cutaneous MCTs affects their cytologic and histopathologic appearance, thus influencing cytologic and histopathologic grading. This was a prospective, blinded, randomized, cohort clinical study. Forty-five dogs with cutaneous MCTs were randomly allocated into three groups according to preanaesthetic medication: dexmedetomidine combined with morphine (group M) or butorphanol (group B) or normal saline (group C). Cytologic specimens and histopathologic samples were obtained both prior to and after surgery. Samples were graded according to Kiupel’s and Patnaik’s systems, examined immunohistochemically for Ki-67 protein (Ki-67) and c-kit proto-oncogene product (KIT) expression, and histochemically for argyrophilic nucleolar organizing regions (AgNORs). Based on both Kiupel’s and Patnaik’s systems, no statistically significant differences were noted concerning the number of cases with grading discrepancies in grades allocated prior to versus after surgery among the groups. The same applied for cytological grading and immunohistochemical and histochemical evaluation. It seems that administration of morphine or butorphanol as part of the preanesthetic medication for surgical removal of canine cutaneous mast cell tumors does not influence histopathologic and cytologic grading of MCTs.

Published: April 2022

Deltaic channels in river deltas usually play important roles in flood discharge, water supply, and navigation development. Under the combined influences of fluvial and ocean dynamics and human activity, the complex long-term morphological evolution of deltaic channels requires further research, in particular the Modaomen Channel in the Pearl River Delta (PRD), China. This study explored the morphological evolution of the Modaomen Channel from 1962 to 2017. During the study period, the characteristics of the Modaomen Channel after 1977 differed substantially from those before 1977. Before 1977, the channel evolution was mainly controlled by natural processes, with a low silting rate. From 1977 to the present, the channel was strongly influenced by human activities, including sand mining and channel regulation, and then, the channel deepened sharply. Therefore, the deep trough of the channel at the upstream was linked completely to that at the downstream, which became much wider and deeper compared to that in the past. Although the deepening of the channel was beneficial for flood discharge and shipping development, serious environmental problems also developed, including strengthened tidal dynamics and saltwater intrusion. Owing to the severely reduced sediment discharge from the Pearl River and the deepening trend in the channel, the future evolution of the channel and its impacts by extreme flood and storm surge require further detailed investigation and research.
Changes in the Amount of Rainwater in the Roztocze National Park (Poland) in 2001–2020 and the Possibility of Using Rainwater in the Context of Ongoing Climate Variability

Published: April 2022

Data for the years 2001–2020 on changes in the amount of rainwater in the Roztocze National Park (RNP) in the catchment area of the Świerszcz River (Poland) were investigated to evaluate the possibility of using rainwater in the park for various purposes in the context of ongoing climate variability. An analysis of data from the RNP’s Integrated Monitoring of the Natural Environment showed that the average annual air temperature increased by 2.1 °C over the 20-year period, while the amount of precipitation decreased, especially in the winter seasons. These changes periodically led to a negative hydrological balance. As an effect, the groundwater table was gradually lowering, the flow of the Świerszcz River was reduced, and there were periodic shortages of water feeding the Echo Ponds. Water shortages also negatively affected the flora and fauna of the RNP. In order to quantitatively protect the Park’s water resources, a proposition was made to build a rainwater management system at the Animal Breeding Centre in Florianka to provide water for watering Polish Konik horses, flushing toilets, washing cars and agricultural equipment, and fire-prevention purposes. The excess water would be discharged to a nearby pond, which is an amphibian breeding site. It was estimated that the system was capable of meeting 100% of the demand for lower-quality water in the summer period. Moreover, it was determined that 9109 m3 of rainwater could be obtained annually from the roofs of all public utility buildings located in the RNP.
Understanding the Complexity of Drought within the Soil Profile in Beech Ecosystems on Their Lower Altitudinal Limit in Slovakia
Authors: Oravcová Zuzana , Vido Jaroslav
Published: April 2022

Due to the ongoing climate change, decreasing amounts of available water and increasing evapotranspiration during the growing season may impact the stability of some beech ecosystems at lower altitudes. This paper aims to evaluate the risk of drought from a meteorological point of view and the subsequent response in soil hydrology throughout hydrological years 2015 and 2016 in beech forests situated in Central Slovakia. Precipitation sufficiency was assessed by means of a climate irrigation index (CII). Hydrological modelling was carried out using GLOBAL, the simulation model of water movement in a soil profile with an emphasis on the root zone. The greatest drought risk occurs during the summer, when the ecosystem suffers from long periods of water deficiency according to the CII (>20 days). The water content in specific soil horizons responds differently to changing meteorological situations. Simulations indicated a later decrease (approx. 5 days) of the water content in the B horizon (main root zone) compared with the A horizon. Drought lasts longer in deeper layers and retreats only in the case of long-lasting rainfall. Sudden heavy rainfall has proven ineffective at moistening the entire soil profile and impacts only the upper few centimetres while the main root zone suffers from water shortage.
Review of the Ecosystem Services of Temperate Wetlands and Their Valuation Tools
Authors: Delle Grazie Fabio M. , Gill Laurence W.
Published: April 2022

Wetlands constitute important habitats that provide several ecosystem services (ES). Wetlands have been termed the kidneys of the world for their water purification services and contain 20–25% of total soil organic carbon. This paper is a review of published studies dealing with the ES of temperate wetlands. Wetlands are among the ecosystems with the most valuable ES, with regulating services being the most important for inland wetlands. While the number of articles on the ES of wetlands has increased exponentially over the past 10 years, more research is needed to achieve a methodological homogenisation in the quantification and valuation of the ES of wetlands. More attention should also be targeted to specific ES of wetlands, and for the geographical distribution of studies. It is also evident that ES have not been valued for some categories of wetlands, such as intermittent karst lakes (poljes/turloughs) which may require more bespoke methodologies to quantify certain aspects of their ES due to their unique annual flooding behaviour.

Published: April 2022

In this study, a mathematical expression describing the relationship between infiltration rate and soil moisture content was deduced based on the Horton equation in order to study the relationship between infiltration rate and soil moisture content during the rainfall infiltration process. Specific experimental data on infiltration processes were used to verify the validity of the equations and to analyze the main factors affecting the infiltration rate. The results indicate the following: (1) The experimental data demonstrated a high degree of accuracy. The volumetric error of soil moisture increase and cumulative infiltration was 3.5% and the coefficient of determination (R2) was 0.87 in the 42 tests. (2) The equation obtained in this paper can well describe the relationship between infiltration rate and soil moisture content; the R2 of the fitted results was greater than 0.80 in more than 80% of the experiments. (3) The relationship between infiltration rate and soil moisture content is mainly influenced by initial soil moisture content; the higher the initial soil moisture content, the lower the initial infiltration rate, the faster the infiltration rate decreases with soil moisture content, and the lower the “relative stable infiltration rate” in the process of infiltration.
Non-Monotonic Relationships between Return Periods of Precipitation Surface Hazard Intensity
Authors: van den Bout Bastian , van Westen Cees J. , Jetten Victor G.
Published: April 2022

Hazardous surface processes such as floods and mass movements are often induced by a common trigger such as extreme precipitation. The relationship between the intensity of the trigger and the surface hazard is generally assumed to be monotonically increasing (increasing precipitation never decreases hazard intensity). The validity of this assumption of complex multi-hazard events has not been thoroughly investigated. In this research, the relationship between cumulative precipitation and hazard intensity was investigated by a simulation of 50 return period precipitation events on the Carribean island Dominica. Here, several tropical hurricanes have induced events with (flash) floods, slope failure, debris flows and landslides within the past decades. Results show that complex multi-hazard interactions break the common assumption for the relationship between trigger and hazard intensity. In particular, landslide dam formation and mass movement dilution result in hazard intensities that are not a one-to-one increasing function of trigger intensity. Spatial variability in this behavior is quantified using a rank-order correlation coefficient between trigger return period and hazard return period. Since trigger and hazard return periods are, in the study case, not approximately equal, the hazard for a specific location can not be classified based on trigger return period. This has implications for risk calculation and decision making related to disaster risk reduction.

Published: April 2022

Emerging organic pollutants (EOPs), including endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs), pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs), and persistent organic pollutants (POPs), constitute a problem in the environmental field as they are difficult to completely degrade by conventional treatment methods. Non-thermal plasma technology is a novel advanced oxidation process, which combines the effects of free radical oxidation, ozone oxidation, ultraviolet radiation, shockwave, etc. This paper summarized and discussed the research progress of non-thermal plasma remediation of EOPs-contaminated water and soil. In addition, the reactive species in the process of non-thermal plasma degradation of EOPs were summarized, and the degradation pathways and degradation mechanisms of EOPs were evaluated of selected EOPs for different study cases. At the same time, the effect of non-thermal plasma in synergy with other techniques on the degradation of EOPs in the environment was evaluated. Finally, the bottleneck problems of non-thermal plasma technology are summarized, and some suggestions for the future development of non-thermal plasma technology in the environmental remediation were presented. This review contributes to our better understanding of non-thermal plasma technology for remediation of EOPs-contaminated water and soil, hoping to provide reference for relevant practitioners.
Assessment of Concentration Levels of Contaminants in Groundwater of the Soutpansberg Region, Limpopo Province, South Africa
Authors: Lalumbe Lindelani , Kanyerere Thokozani
Published: April 2022

Groundwater contributions towards improved food security and human health depend on the level of contaminants in groundwater resources. Many people in rural areas use groundwater for drinking purposes without treatment and knowledge of contaminant levels in such waters, owing to parachute research in which research outputs are not shared with communities. This study argues that parachute research exposes groundwater users to health hazards and threatens the food security of communities. Concentration levels of contaminants were measured to ascertain suitability of groundwater for drinking and irrigation purposes. A total of 124 groundwater quality samples from 12 boreholes and 2 springs with physiochemical data from 1995 to 2017 were assessed. This study found high concentration levels of contaminants, such as F−, NO3−, Cl−, and total dissolved solids, in certain parts of the studied area. In general, groundwater was deemed suitable for drinking purposes in most parts of the studied area. Combined calculated values of sodium adsorption ratios, Na%, magnesium hazards, the permeability index, residual sodium carbonate, and total dissolved solids determined that groundwater was suitable for irrigation purposes. The discussion in this paper shows that scientific knowledge generated on groundwater quality is not aimed at developing skills and outputs for improved human health and food security but rather for scientific publication and record keeping, leaving communities where such data has been gathered devoid of knowledge about groundwater quality. In this study, it is recommended that research outputs on groundwater quality should be shared with groundwater users through various initiatives.

Published: April 2022

Diazinon (DZN) is a widely used pesticide that can affect the vital organs of non-target aquatic animals—mainly fish. This study evaluated the acute toxicity (LC50) of six DZN concentrations (0.5, 0.75, 1.5, 2, 2.5, and 3 mg·L−1) and, based on its evaluation after 24 h, 48 h, 72 h, and 96 h, two sublethal concentrations for chronic toxicity testing (0.01 and 0.05 mg·L−1) for 21 days of exposure to DZN on grass carp fingerlings (Ctenopharyngodon idella Valenciennes, 1844). The median lethal concentrations of DZN at 24, 48, 72, and 96 h were 1.83, 1.57, 1.35, and 1.12 mg·L−1, respectively. Next, histological observations after 96 h LC50 showed oedema of the primary lamellae of the gills at low pesticide concentrations (0.5 to 1 mg·L−1) and extensive necrosis of primary lamellae of the gills at higher concentrations (1.5 to 3 mg·L−1). Moreover, cytoplasmic vacuolation and extensive necrosis were observed in liver tissue. Increased skin mucus, unbalanced swimming on the water surface, and increased gill opercula movements were noted during chronic exposure. Haematological parameters such as haematocrit, red blood cell count, white blood cell count, haemoglobin, and mean corpuscular volume were significantly reduced after 21 days of exposure to 0.05 mg·L−1 of DNZ (p < 0.05). The present study shows that DZN has various toxic effects on grass carp, which may pose a potential risk for other fish species.

Published: April 2022

When amphibious aircraft, ships, and other equipment perform tasks on the water, especially in winter or in low-temperature environments such as high latitudes, high altitudes, and polar regions, they will inevitably encounter icing problems which can adversely affect the safety and performance of these devices. In order to study the mechanical properties of freshwater and seawater ice, this paper tests and analyzes the tensile and shear strengths of static ice and proposes the test principle of shear and tensile strengths of static ice. It then designs and builds the corresponding test equipment, prepares the freshwater and seawater ice samples, and completes the tests. Experiments yield the shear and tensile strengths of freshwater and different seawater samples at various temperatures, and the temperature–strength curves are then drawn. The findings can provide technical support and valuable reference for anti-icing and de-icing design of water vehicles in low-temperature and hostile ocean environments.

Published: April 2022

Groundwater is an important source for drinking, agricultural, and industrial purposes in the Linfen basin of the Eastern Chinese Loess Plateau (ECLP). To ensure the safety of drinking water, this study was carried out to assess the quality using the water quality index (WQI) and potential health risks of groundwater using the human health risk assessment model (HHRA). The WQI approach showed that 90% of the samples were suitable for drinking, and Pb, TH, F−, SO42−, and TDS were the most significant parameters affecting groundwater quality. The non-carcinogenic health risk results indicated that 20% and 80% of the samples surpassed the permissible limit for adult females and children. Additionally, all groundwater samples could present a carcinogenic health risk to males, females, and children. The pollution from F−, Pb, and Cr6+ was the most serious for non-carcinogenic health risk. Cd contributed more than Cr6+ and As to carcinogenic health risks. Residents living in the central of the study area faced higher health risks than humans in other areas. The research results can provide a decision-making basis for the scientific management of the regional groundwater environment and the protection of drinking water safety and public health.
Comparison of Disinfection By-Product Formation and Distribution during Breakpoint Chlorination and Chlorine-Based Disinfection in Drinking Water
Authors: Stefán Dávid , Balogh Judit , Záray Gyula , Vargha Márta
Published: April 2022

Breakpoint chlorination (BC) and disinfection with chlorine-based disinfectant are widely used procedures in drinking water production. Both involve dosing chlorine into the raw water, where it can react with organic compounds, forming disinfection by-products (DBPs) of health concern. However, technological parameters (e.g., contact time, chlorine dosage, and bromide to residual free chlorine ratio) of the two chlorination procedures are different, which can lead to differences in DBP formation. To better understand this, a year-long sampling campaign was carried out at three waterworks in Hungary, where both BC and chlorine disinfection are used. To confirm the results of the field sampling, bench-scale experiments were carried out, investigating the impact of (a) bromide concentration in raw water, (b) residual free chlorine (bromide to residual chlorine ratio), and (c) contact time on DBP formation. The measured DBPs were trihalomethanes (THMs), haloacetic acids (HAAs), haloacetonitriles (HANs), and chlorate. During BC, the DBPs were formed in higher concentration, with the exception of one waterwork having elevated bromide content in the raw water. Bromine substitution factors (BSFs) were significantly higher during disinfection than BC in both field and laboratory experiments. After BC, the chlorate concentration range was 0.15–1.1 mg/L, and 96% of the samples exceeded the European Union (EU) parametric value (0.25 mg/L), whereas disinfection contributed only slightly. Granular activated carbon (GAC) filters used to remove DBPs in waterworks were exhausted after 6–8 months of use, first for those chlorinated THMs, which are generated predominantly during BC. The biological activity of the filters started to increase after 3–6 months of operation. This activity helps to remove the biodegradable compounds, such as disubstituted haloacetic acid (DHAAs) and HANs, even if the adsorption capacity of the GAC filters are low.

White-rot fungi can degrade a wide spectrum of environmental pollutants, including pharmaceuticals, which are not efficiently removed from wastewater by conventional methods, e.g., the activated sludge method. However, the treatment of wastewater with the use of fungal cultures (mycoremediation) also has significant limitations: among others, the need to use appropriate, often-expensive culture media. We aimed to screen 18 media ingredients, including seven agrifood byproducts for Armillaria mellea, Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Pleurotus ostreatus in submerged cultures to select the low-cost medium optimal for biomass production and laccase activity. We screened nine mathematic models to describe the relation of fungal growth and the amount of the selected byproduct in media. Finally, we tested the ability of the strain with the highest mycelial growth and enzyme-producing ability in the selected medium to degrade eight drug contaminants. Three media variants composed of byproducts provided both efficient growth and laccase production: corn steep liquor + poplar, dried distillers grains with solubles + poplar and corn steep liquor 50%. Among the investigated growth models, the Han–Levenspiel equation described well the specific growth rate in function of the nominal substrate concentration in one-component media. Pleurotus ostreatus, the fungus with the highest ligninolytic enzyme activity, cultured in medium composed of corn steep liquor, removed six of eight drug contaminants with a removal degree of 20–90% in 48 h. The obtained data on the optimal culture media consisting of insoluble components provide initial data for upscaling the process and designing an appropriate type of bioreactor for the process of removing drug contaminants from water.
GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM APPROACH ON MANAGEMENT PRIORITIZATION OF GUBAWAN WATERSHED, BASILAN, PHILIPPINES USING MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Ante às variadas formas de desigualdade e exclusão social vigentes na sociedade brasileira, a adesão a uma proposta curricular multiculturalista no Ensino de História representa o reconhecimento e a valorização da diversidade cultural, étnico-racial e de gênero. Interessa-nos ressaltar a compatibilidade entre as teorias multiculturalistas e o Ensino de História Antiga.
A história anti-islâmica da Colômbia
Authors: Alarcón-Jiménez Andrés
Published: April 2022

Esse ensaio se refere ao caráter da história da Colômbia como uma narrativa que, além de ser dirigida ao público jovem, pretende refletir como, por esse meio, a ideia de colombiano foi construída a partir de um conjunto de elementos culturais específicos que se contemplaram através do viés do anti-islamismo, entendido esse como um uso do passado. Aborda-se a ideia de que a narrativa histórica colombiana foi construída como católica em espírito e, de fato, não somente a partir da figura de Cristóvão Colombo, mas é escrita a partir de tradições tais como o Gênese bíblico, ou as teorias de povoamento americanas de um bispo desenvolvidas ambas como alicerce da explicação da origem do ser humano que, pela história sugerida, deve ser colombiano, ao mesmo tempo que se excluem dele todos os elementos histórico-culturais que, por outro lado, transbordam de multiculturalidade e que, como a almojábana, existem como patrimônio nacional.

Published: April 2022

Emerging literature highlights that in the Pacific, the use of participatory video (PV) is a new trend in research and community action. It can be employed as a tool to empower communities to have agency over their media outputs, meaning that they have full control of the content creation, production and distribution processes. But to date there is still a dearth of studies that fully explore its potential use in different contexts, especially within diasporic networks. To address this gap, a pilot project was undertaken where PV methodologies were tested in collaboration with a diasporic Pacific community group based in West Auckland, New Zealand. This report feeds back on the overall process of developing the pilot project.
