A simplified system to quantify storage of carbon dioxide, water vapor and heat within a maize canopy
Authors: Raza Taqi , Eash Neal , Oetting Joel , Hicks Bruce
Published: August 2024

Abstract. The significance of canopy storage of CO2, latent energy and sensible heat within agricultural crops has not been fully examined. Reported canopy storage terms are consistently smaller than found for a forest ecosystem, such that they are often neglected. A novel multiport profile system has been developed to examine these storage terms. The system sequentially samples air from four heights to a single non-dispersive Infrared Gas Analyzer (IRGA). Following extensive laboratory testing, the system was used to measure CO2 and H2O within an eastern Tennessee maize canopy in 2023. The storage of latent and sensible heat was large enough to merit incorporation with conventional field measurements. The new system will enable profile measurements of CO2 sufficient to quantify canopy storage terms as are needed in agricultural field campaigns.
Pluvial and compound flooding in a coupled coastal system modeling framework: New York City during post-tropical cyclone Ida (2021)

Published: August 2024

Abstract. Coastal-urban areas are highly vulnerable to extreme pluvial flooding exacerbated by limitations in stormwater system capacity and potentially compounded by storm surge, waves, and tides. Understanding and simulating these processes can improve prediction and flood risk management. Here, we improve the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) within the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere-Wave-Sediment Transport framework (COAWST) to simulate post-tropical cyclone Ida (2021) pluvial flooding for the Jamaica Bay watershed of New York City (NYC). We modify the model to capture the volumetric effects of rainfall and parameterize soil infiltration and a stormwater conveyance system as a drainage rate. We generate a spatially continuous flood map of Ida with RMS error of 28 cm when compared to high water marks, useful for understanding Ida’s impacts and subsequent mitigation planning. Results show that over 37.2 km2 of urban area in the watershed were deeply flooded (deeper than 0.3 m) during Ida. Sensitivity analyses are used to study the broader risk from events like Ida and compound flooding. Spatial shifting of the storm track within typical 12-hour forecast track uncertainty reveals a worst-case scenario that increases the deeply flooded area to 74.7 km2. Shifting Ida’s rainfall to coincide with high tide increases deeply flooded area by 0.3 km2, a relatively small change due to the lack of significant storm surge and the significant pluvial flood area. The application of COAWST to this storm event addresses a broader goal of developing the capability to model compound flooding by simultaneously representing coastal storm processes such as rain, tide, waves, erosion, and atmosphere-wave-ocean interactions. The sensitivity analysis results underscore the need for detailed flood risk assessments, showing that Ida, already NYC's worst rain event, could have been even more devastating with slight shifts in storm track.
Using Random Forests to Predict Extreme Sea-Levels at the Baltic Coast at Weekly Timescales
Authors: Bellinghausen Kai , Hünicke Birgit , Zorita Eduardo
Published: August 2024

Abstract. We have designed a machine-learning method to predict the occurrence of daily extreme sea-level at the Baltic Sea coast with lead times of a few days. The method is based on a Random Forest Classifier and uses spatially resolved fields of daily sea level pressure, surface wind, precipitation, and the prefilling state of the Baltic Sea as predictors for daily sea level above the 95 % quantile at each of seven tide-gauge stations representative of the Baltic coast. The method is purely data-driven and is trained with sea-level data from the Global Extreme Sea Level Analysis (GESLA) data set and from the meteorological reanalysis ERA5 of the European Centre for Mid-range Weather Forecasting. Sea-level extremes at lead times of up to 3 days are statisfactorily predicted by the method and the relevant predictor regions are identified. The sensitivity, measured as the proportion of correctly predicted extremes is, depending on the stations, of the order of 70 %. The proportion of false warnings, related to the specificity of the predictions, is typically as low as 10 to 20 %. For lead times longer than 3 days, the predictive skill degrades; for 7 days, it is comparable to a random skill. These values are generally higher than those derived from storm-surge reanalysis of dynamical models. The importance of each predictor depends on the location of the tide gauge. Usually, the most relevant predictors are sea level pressure, surface wind and prefilling. Extreme sea levels in the Northern Baltic are better predicted by surface pressure and the meridional surface wind component. By contrast, for stations located in the south, the most relevant predictors are surface pressure and the zonal wind component. Precipitation was not a relevant predictor for any of the stations analysed. The Random Forest classifier is not required to have considerable complexity and the computing time to issue predictions is typically a few minutes on a personal laptop. The method can, therefore, be used as a pre-warning system triggering the application of more sophisticated algorithms to estimate the height of the ensuing extreme sea level or as a warning to run larger ensembles with physically based numerical models.
Technical Note: The divide and measure nonconformity – how metrics can mislead when we evaluate on different data partitions
Authors: Klotz Daniel , Gauch Martin , Kratzert Frederik , Nearing Grey , Zscheischler Jakob
Published: August 2024

Abstract. The evaluation of model performance is an essential part of hydrological modeling. However, leveraging the full information that performance criteria provide requires a deep understanding of their properties. This Technical Note focuses on a rather counterintuitive aspect of the perhaps most widely used hydrological metric, the Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE). Specifically, we demonstrate that the overall NSE of a dataset is not bounded by the NSEs of all its partitions. We term this phenomenon the “divide and measure nonconformity”. It follows naturally from the definition of the NSE, yet because modelers often subdivide datasets in a non-random way, the resulting behavior can have unintended consequences in practice. In this note we therefore discuss the implications of the divide and measure nonconformity, examine its empirical and theoretical properties, and provide recommendations for modelers to avoid drawing misleading conclusions.
Assistive Technology and Inclusion of Children with Disabilities in Nigeria
Authors: Chinwe Okoye Claret
Published: August 2024

Assistive technology (AT) is increasingly recognized as a powerful tool in bridging the gap, offering the potential to enhance the learning experience and integration of children with disabilities. This paper examined the role of assistive technology in enhancing the inclusivity of children with disabilities in Nigeria. The study adopted the survey research design. To ensure the efficient and comprehensive collection of data for the study on assistive technology and the inclusion of children with disabilities in Nigeria, the use of digital online interviews and questionnaires was adopted. Thematic analysis and one-sample t-statistics was used to analyze the set of data that was collected from the study sample. The results demonstrate how important assistive technology is in enabling inclusive educational opportunities for children with disabilities by giving them the resources they require to participate in schooling and actively engage in the process of learning. Additionally, it was discovered that learning challenges in math, writing, and reading are addressed by assistive technology. It was finally discovered that children with impairments who use assistive technology (AT) find it much easier to learn independently. It is therefore recommended that to ensure the widespread availability and accessibility of assistive technology (AT) in Nigerian schools, increased funding and resource allocation are essential. The government, in collaboration with international organizations and NGOs, should establish dedicated funds for purchasing AT devices and maintaining existing ones. This financial support should also cover the costs of training educators and technical staff.
An Investigation into the Impact of Social Networks on Reading Culture among Undergraduate Students of Three Universities in North Western Nigeria
Authors: S. B. Mohammed, , U. A. Nasir,
Published: August 2024

The mounting decline in reading culture is Nigeria’s contemporary reality. However, one region where the situation increasingly degenerates is the Northern part of the country. In this part, students increasingly grow disinterested in extensive reading to boost their vocabulary power. Dejectedly, as English Second Language Learners (ESL) and which equally is the target language (TL), it is incumbent on the University students to acquire a minimum of 750 vocabulary (Cox head 2000) so as to listen, speak, write and read fluently; as a steeping-stone towards acquiring 2000 and more vocabulary (Nation 2001) to communicate in the language with a sensible degree of competence. The focus of this project is to investigate the impact of the social networks on reading culture among undergraduate students in three universities in North Western Nigeria namely: Umaru Musa Yar’adau University Katsina State, Bayero University Kano and Usman Dan’fodio University, Sokoto. It uses questionnaire method to obtain data regarding the perception of the students on the impact of social networks on their reading attitude. The data was analysed quantitatively and the results were presented in tables using an SPSS analysis to prove this phenomenon or otherwise in the region. Thus, research is purely quantitative. Findings of the research indicates that the traditional reading of printed texts has metamorphosed into digital reading through the internet more especially the social networks and this clears the way for acquiring new vocabulary by the target students of this study. Where there could be setbacks is the fact that the undergraduate students of these universities do not put the new vocabulary they increasingly generate into good use and which they ought to, so long as they want eschew vocabulary extinction. This is another challenge when newly acquired vocabulary is not frequently used by a second language learner.

Availability of cardiovascular care and burden of cardiovascular disease in the Republic of Moldova in the context of European statistical data
Authors: Moscalu Vitalie , Rudi V. , Marina A.
Published: August 2024

An impact analysis of the burden of cardiovascular disease in the Republic of Moldova was conducted in comparison with European Society of Cardiology member countries, which are classified according to income level, Moldova being ranked as a country with lower than average incomes. This analysis was carried out in accordance with the ESC Atlas of Cardiology. Despite much progress, CVD is still the leading cause of death, with more than 4 million deaths every year- around 47% of all deaths in Europe. Mortality due to cardiovascular diseases in the Republic of Moldova is constantly high, about 57-58% in recent years. With the aging population, CVD prevalence is expected to increase and often co-exist with other diseases, leading to multi-morbidity - a further challenge when seeking to assess and treat patients. CVD is the leading cause of premature mortality.Positive progress has been made in the evolution of diagnostic and treatment methods. However, the Republic of Moldova does not on an advantageous position over other ESC member countries. The data summarized in this article identify substantial differences between ESC member countries in terms of the number of cardiology professionals, the available infrastructure, and access to interventional and surgical cardiological procedures. Different countries have different health care systems, educational programs in cardiology and levels of health spending and of course a single approach does not clearly fit and is not possible. Finally, the improvement of insurance with certain diagnostic or therapeutic procedures should be encouraged in order to increase the quality of healthcare.

THE VICTORY DAY AT THE FRONT OF SOCIALIST CONSTRUCTION: SOVIET SABANTUY IN THE 1920-1930S (BASED ON THE MATERIALS OF THE STATE ARCHIVE OF THE KRASNOYARSK REGION)
Authors: Мамышева Е.П.
Published: August 2024

В статье анализируется становление Сабан-Туя как советского праздника в 1920-1930-е гг. на территории Красноярского края. На основе архивных источников рассматривается осовечивание традиционного праздника татарского этноса. В статье отмечается, что Сабан-Туй неслучайно был подвергнут трансформации, для советской власти было затруднительно сбросить со счетов праздник, сохранявший неповторимый народный дух. Кроме того, его было удобно использовать для отвлечения мусульманского населения от исламских праздников, заменяя их языческими.

The article analyses the formation of Sabantuy as the Soviet holiday in the 1920-1930s in the territory of the Krasnoyarsk Region. On the basis of archival sources, it considers the Sovietization of the traditional holiday of the Tatar ethnic group. The article notes that it was no coincidence that Sabantuy was transformed; it was difficult for the Soviet government to disregard the holiday, which preserved the unique national spirit. Besides, it was convenient to distract the Muslim population from Islamic holidays, replacing them with pagan ones.
SYMBOLS IN KHAKASS OMENS AND SUPERSTITIOUS BELIEFS (USING THE EXAMPLE OF V. MAINASHEV'S POETIC LEGACY)
Authors: Чочиева А.С.
Published: August 2024

В статье рассмотрены источники возникновения, особенности и роль символов в хакасских приметах и поверьях на примере поэтического наследия поэта-лирика Валерия Гавриловича Майнашева. В ходе исследования установлено, что приметы и поверья символизируют семейные традиции и обычаи. Поэт пытается передать свои знания, полученные от дедов, следующему поколению, тем самым сохранив самобытность, м ировоззрение, нравственные нормы хакасского народа посредством художественного слова. Еще одно значение примет и поверий заключается в передаче символов жизни и смерти, воплотившиеся в передаче душ евных переживаний по поводу страха перед неизвестностью, боязни получить проклятие или болезнь. Тема жизни и быта народа в стихотворных произведениях, представленная в различных приметах и поверьях, символизирует глубину поэтических созданий В. Майнашева в философском аспекте, передаче мироощ ущ ения и м ировосприятия людей. Приметы и поверья не только обогатили поэтический мир поэта, но и подняли идейно-тематическое содержание и идейно-эстетическое значение хакасского поэтического текста. Особенность представленных примет и поверий в поэтических произведениях В. Майнашева заключается в раскрытии символа жизни, символа смерти и символа любви (авторское видение поэта). Роль символических образов в хакасских приметах и поверьях в том, что они дают возможность увидеть специфику развития хакасской поэзии, а также скрытый смысл художественных средств.

The article examines the sources of origin, features and role of sym bols in Khakass om ens and superstitious beliefs on the example of the poetic heritage of the lyric poet Valery Gavrilovich Mainashev. The study found that om ens and beliefs symbolize family traditions and customs. The poet tries to pass on his knowledge gained from his grandfathers to the next generation, thereby preserving the identity, worldview, and moral norm s of the Khakass people through artistic expression. Another meaning of om ens and beliefs is the transmission of sym bols of life and death, which are em bodied in the expression of emotional experiences about the fear of the unknown, the fear of receiving a curse or illness. The theme of the people's life and household in poetic works, presented in various om ens and beliefs, symbolizes the depth of V. Mainashev's poetic works in the philosophical aspect, the transmission of people's worldview and outlook. O m ens and beliefs not only enriched the poetic world of the poet, but also raised the ideological and thematic content, and the ideological and aesthetic significance of Khakass poetic text. The feature of the presented om ens and beliefs in V. M ainashev's poetic works is the disclosure of the sym bol of life, the sym bol of death and the sym bol of love (the author's vision). The role of symbolic im ages in Khakass om ens and superstitious beliefs is that they provide an opportunity to see the specifics of the developm ent of Khakass poetry, as well as the hidden meaning of artistic means.
Recent lexical expansion and change in New Zealand Sign Language
Authors: Vale Mireille (Micky)
Published: August 2024

In the past few decades, New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) has seen changes in status, wider contexts of use, and ongoing contact with other (spoken and signed) languages. As a result, the NZSL lexicon is expanding and changing in nature. Using our analysis of close to 1,000 NZSL neologisms documented in the past five years, we discuss which semantic domains are showing the strongest growth; the linguistic mechanisms used to create new signs; and differences between planned (curriculum-related) terminology and community-generated neologisms.

Comparative efficacy of proximal femoral nail vs dynamic condylar screw in treating unstable intertrochanteric fractures
Authors: Yousif Mohamed Ahmed Mohamed , Salih Monzir , Abdulgadir Mohanad , Abbas Ayman E , Lutfi Turjuman Duha
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND

Among the most frequent hip fractures are trochanteric fractures, which usually occur from low-energy trauma like minor falls, especially in older people with osteoporotic bones.

AIM

To evaluate the treatment efficacy of dynamic condylar screws (DCS) and proximal femoral nails (PFN) for unstable intertrochanteric fractures.

METHODS

To find pertinent randomized controlled trials and retrospective observational studies comparing PFN with DCS for the management of unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures, a thorough search was carried out. For research studies published between January 1996 and April 2024, PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar were all searched. The complete texts of the papers were retrieved, vetted, and independently examined by two investigators. Disputes were settled by consensus, and any disagreements that persisted were arbitrated by a third author.

RESULTS

This study included six articles, comprising a total of 173 patients. Compared to the DCS, the PFN had a shorter operation time [mean difference (MD): -41.7 min, 95% confidence interval (95%CI): -63.04 to -20.35, P = 0.0001], higher success rates with closed reduction techniques [risk ratio (RR): 34.05, 95%CI: 11.12-104.31, P < 0.00001], and required less intraoperative blood transfusion (MD: -1.4 units, 95%CI: -1.80 to -1.00, P < 0.00001). Additionally, the PFN showed shorter fracture union time (MD: -6.92 wk, 95%CI: -10.27 to -3.57, P < 0.0001) and a lower incidence of reoperation (RR: 0.37, 95%CI: 0.17-0.82, P = 0.01). However, there was no discernible variation regarding hospital stay, implant-related complications, and infections.

CONCLUSION

Compared to DCS, PFN offers shorter operative times, reduces the blood transfusions requirements, achieves higher closed reduction success, enables faster fracture healing, and lowers reoperation incidence.
Neglected congenital bilateral knee dislocation treated by quadricepsplasty with semitendinosus and sartorius transfer: A case report
Authors: Qasim Osama M , Abdulaziz Abdulaziz A , Aljabri Nibras K , Albaqami Khalid S , Suqaty Rayan M
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND

Congenital knee dislocation (CKD) is a rare condition, which accounts for 1% of congenital hip dislocations. It can present as an isolated condition or coexist with other genetic disorders. Treatment options include serial casting, percutaneous quadriceps recession, and V-Y quadricepsplasty (VYQ). The pathogenesis and hereditary patterns of CKD are not fully understood, with most cases being familial. CKD is usually managed immediately after birth. However, in this report, the patient was neglected for 2 years.

CASE SUMMARY

A 2-year-old girl with bilateral CKD after birth presented to our hospital after failed serial casting; the patient had seizures and limited access to healthcare because of her family’s low socioeconomic status. Her birth was noted for a breech presentation accompanied by oligohydramnios. The delivery took a long time, requiring immediate medical interventions. As an infant, she had chronic diseases, including a small patent ductus arteriole, multicystic dysplastic kidney disease, and epilepsy. She was found to have a bilateral knee dislocation of approximately -90° on hyperextension. A multidisciplinary team was involved, and medical care was optimized. She underwent VYQ plus semitendinosus and sartorius transfer. After four postoperative follow-ups, her knees were regaining mobility, and she could walk for 2-3 steps without assistance.

CONCLUSION

This report highlights the importance of early intervention and recommends extensive studies of the management in similar cases.
Mixtures development, physicochemical characterization, and consumer acceptance for high-protein vegan burgers based on pre-gelatinized grains flours without gluten
Authors: FERREIRA Bruna Mayara Roldão , TORRES Isadora Maria Melo , MONTEIRO Antonio Roberto Giriboni
Published: August 2024

Veganism is on the rise as a major trend in today's world. Plant proteins are gaining popularity as substitutes for animal proteins, given their versatility across various sources. It is believed that blending complementary protein sources in modern analog products can offer a balanced nutrient profile. To provide vegan consumers with a convenient and nutritious plant-based protein option, three different powder formulations of vegan burgers were developed using gluten-free pre-gelatinized flours (MIX 1, MIX 2, and MIX 3), carrying out physicochemical characterization and consumer acceptance. Samples 1 and 2 showed notably high levels of crude protein (17.99 and 18.09), surpassing previous studies. Hardness (N) ranged from 6.66 to 8.41, with no significant differences observed, suggesting that the stiffness of grains used did not impact this parameter. While sensory analysis did not yield significantly different results across attributes like color, taste, flavor, and texture, overall preference favored sample 3 (49%). The formulation containing sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) and pea isolate (Pisum sativum), unlike others, likely contributed to its higher acceptance.

Published: August 2024

Monitoring the effects of climate change is essential due to the ongoing increase in extreme drought and flood events, primarily driven by changes in key variables such as precipitation and temperature. In this study, data from eight Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) models were used to assess temperature and precipitation anomalies in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil, for the period 2041 to 2100, considering two different climate scenarios (SSP245 and SSP585). The projected data were compared with WorldClim historical climatological data between 1970 and 2000. Due to the significant spatial variability of annual precipitation in Pernambuco, ranging from 400 to 2,200 mm, the state was evaluated considering its territory in total and also in two distinct climatic regions (Sertão/Agreste and Zona da Mata). An increase in temperature is projected, even in the least pessimistic scenario (SSP245) with an increment of 1.64°C from 2041 to 2060. During the same period, an increase of 2.10°C is expected in the SSP585 scenario. For the period from 2081 to 2100, the models indicate increases of 2.45 and 4.53°C, respectively. Precipitation will decrease in all scenarios and regions of Pernambuco, with a reduction of up to 227.24 mm year-1 in the Zona da Mata between 2081 and 2100 in the SSP585 scenario. These potential changes pose imminent threats to water resources, agriculture, biodiversity, and the population, demanding proactive measures from policymakers and stakeholders to mitigate these effects.

Authors: Danxia Luo , Wareewanich Thitinant
Published: August 2024

This study investigates the influence of organizational justice on employee loyalty, with a specific focus on the mediating roles of hygiene and motivators within H Medicine Company, recognized for having the lowest employee turnover rate in China in 2023. Employing a quantitative methodology, the research collected data via a structured survey from 514 valid respondents out of 600 distributed questionnaires among the company's employees. This comprehensive analysis included testing multiple hypotheses related to procedural, distributive, interpersonal, and informational justice. The findings reveal significant positive correlations between all forms of organizational justice and employee loyalty. Specifically, procedural justice showed a strong association with both hygiene and motivators, with standardized path coefficients of 0.213 and 0.191, respectively, indicating that fairness in decisionmaking processes significantly enhances employee satisfaction with workplace conditions and intrinsic motivational factors. Distributive justice also had a noteworthy impact on both hygiene and motivators, with coefficients of 0.258 and 0.283, suggesting that equitable distribution of resources and rewards boosts employee perceptions of fairness and satisfaction. Moreover, interpersonal and informational justice were positively linked to satisfaction with both hygiene and motivators. The mediation analysis provided evidence that hygiene factors and motivators significantly mediate the relationship between organizational justice and employee loyalty. Hygiene factors had a notable mediating effect, particularly between procedural justice and employee loyalty, while motivators played a crucial role in enhancing the impact of all justice dimensions on loyalty. These results underscore the importance of a fair, transparent, and respectful workplace in fostering employee loyalty. The study highlights the critical role that both hygiene and motivational factors play in mediating the relationship between organizational justice and loyalty, offering valuable insights for organizations aiming to improve their managerial practices and overall workplace environment. The findings suggest that enhancing organizational justice not only directly impacts employee loyalty but also does so indirectly by improving satisfaction with workplace conditions and motivational aspects. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how organizational justice frameworks can be strategically leveraged to enhance employee retention and organizational performance.
