Fejér and Levin-Stečkin inequalities treat integrals of the product of convex functions with symmetric functions. The main goal of this article is to present possible matrix versions of these inequalities. In particular, majorization results are shown of Fejér type for both convex and log-convex functions. For the matrix Levin-Stečkin type, we present more rigorous results involving the partial Löewner ordering for Hermitian matrices. Further related results involving synchronous functions are presented, too.

Authors: Setyawan Herman , Arifin Bustanul
Published: March 2024

Records are organizational assets in the form of documnet that contain information about activities or events, so that the existence of records is important for the organization. Even though records have an important role for the organization, without a disposal process, records will increase and accumulate from time to time. Uncontrolled addition of records volumes will result in various problems such as space provision and costs. For this reason, disposal activities are needed, one of which can be done through destruction. The purpose of this study was to study the design and development of an effective and safe paper-based records pulping machine. This study uses the Research & Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE framework. The results of this study indicate that the development of the tool started with an analysis of the needs for records destruction equipment, designing the tool design, developing the tool at an early stage, implementing the tool, and evaluating the function of the tool.

Principles of transport phenomena and chemical/ electrochemical reaction kinetics were employed to develop the formulation for the prediction of fuel (e.g., ) and oxidant (e.g., ) mole fraction profiles in the porous anode and cathode electrodes of an ideal solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The ideal SOFC is composed of the porous anode, , which is the cermet of metallic nickel and yttria-stabilized zirconia and the porous cathode, , which is the strontium-doped lanthanum manganite. A thin film of the yttria-stabilized zirconia is the solid electrolyte separating the cell electrodes. The cell anode-side fuel and cathode-side oxidant supply compartments are continuously stirred to maintain constant concentrations of fuel and oxidant in them. The relevant analytical formulation as well as the numerical data computed is presented. The current calculated data show a non-linear decrease, associated with the coupled effect of diffusion and consumption, in the mole fractions of hydrogen and oxygen in the porous electrodes with an increase in the distance from the reactant supply compartments towards the cell electrolyte separator.

Metal ions are fundamental elements for the maintenance of the life span’ s of the humans, animals and plants. In coordination compound studies, a knowledge of the magnitude of the stability constants of complexes is necessary for preliminary quantitative treatment. Present work described method that involves the use of paper electrophoretic technique for the study of the equilibria in binary complex systems in solution. This method is based on the movement of a spot of metal ion in an electric field at various pHs of the background electrolyte. A plot of overall mobility of metal / complex ion versus pH was used to obtain information on the formation of binary complexes and to calculate their stability constants. The stability constant of the ML and ML2 complexes of cadmium (II) – proline,iron(II) – proline and zinc(II) – proline, have been found to be (4.61 ± 0.01; 3.04 ± 0.03), (4.21 ± 0.01; 2.89 ± 0.09) and (4.98 ± 0.02; 2.44 ± 0.05) (logarithm constant values), respectively at 35 ºC and ionic strength 0.1 mol L-1. The first and second stability constants follow the order zinc (II) >cadmium (II) > iron (II). Metal complexes can offer their action such as anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antimicrobial, anticancer and ant thyroid compounds. Metal based drugs bioactivity can be increase by metal chelation, which in turn increase their absorbance and stability.

The International Whaling Commission’s Scientific Committee conducts regular Implementation Reviews (IRs) of the biology, threats and status of whale species subject to aboriginal subsistence whaling. The last IR of plans for hunting eastern North Pacific (ENP) gray whales by the Chukotka Natives of the Russian Federation and the Makah Tribe of the United States of America occurred in 2020. This paper presents a review of new scientific findings on gray whales to assess whether the current status of the stock(s) is within the parameter space tested in the 2020 IR. Updated information on gray whale stock structure hypotheses, abundance and calf productivity, health and strandings, human removals by hunting and non‐hunting sources, population growth rates, immigration into the Pacific Coast Feeding Group, parameterisation of the Makah hunt, and future episodic mortality events (EMEs) were reviewed for this assessment. For almost all factors, it appears that the current dynamics of the ENP gray whale population are within the parameter space evaluated in 2020 IR. The exception is that EMEs affecting whales in the ENP are occurring more frequently and at a greater magnitude than previously evaluated. However, preliminary evaluations suggest that the performances of the Gray Whale Strike Limit Algorithm (SLA) and Makah Management Plan are robust to recent and future EMEs of Northern Feeding Group gray whales and reductions of productivity of the Pacific Coast Feeding Group, at least under the initial parameterisations. We therefore conclude that there is no compelling need for a Special IR prior to the next scheduled IR in 2026, while noting that additional abundance data for 2022/23 and 2023/24 analysed after drafting this paper could strengthen or weaken the evidence for this conclusion.

Authors: Shah Hrishita , Mariwala Ravi
Published: March 2024

As the world progresses into the 21st century, water scarcity necessitates innovative water conservation and sustainable approaches to agriculture. This paper presents a novel sand-based hydroponic system that leverages capillary action to enhance watering and water retention efficiency, offering a cost-effective and water-efficient solution for sustainable plant growth. To study the physical characteristics (particle size distribution, capillarity, pore radius, uniformity coefficient, water retention) of the growth medium, a comprehensive particle study of three samples was conducted. Subsequently, a practical trial was employed to validate the proposed approach, which demonstrated promising results for large-scale adoption and use. Furthermore, the study explores potential extensions of the system, including the addition of essential nutrients to the water and investigating alternative set-ups for enhanced versatility and efficiency. By combining theoretical scientific analysis and practical experimentation, this research contributes to the advancement of sustainable agricultural and gardening practices and offers a viable path to mitigate water scarcity and food insecurity challenges.

Authors: Rahman Farha , Jhora Sanya Tahmina , Paul Shikha , Sarkar Dipika , Sadia Israt
Published: March 2024

Enteric fever caused by Salmonella enterica remains an unresolved public health problem and due to the prevalence of multidrug resistant (MDR) strains for the last two decades, the first line antimicrobials were discontinued and currently the second line antimicrobials are used. A total of 325 blood samples from clinically suspected enteric fever patients were collected during the study period of July, 2014 to June, 2015. After identification of organisms, antimicrobial susceptibility tests were done by disc diffusion method and MIC by broth microdilution method. Rate of isolation of organisms were 19.38%, among them Salmonella Typhi were 85.71% and Salmonella Paratyphi A were 14.29%. About 74.07%, 77.78% and 72.22% strains of Salmonella Typhi and 88.89%, 77.78% and 77.78% strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A were sensitive to chloramphenicol, ampicillin and cotrimoxazole respectively. By disc diffusion method, 94.44% Salmonella Typhi strains and by broth microdilution method, 98.15% strains of Salmonella Typhi were sensitive to ceftriaxone. All the strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A were sensitive to ceftriaxone by both disc diffusion and broth microdilution method. In case of Salmonella Typhi, by disc diffusion method, 88.88% strains and by broth microdilution method, 92.59% strains were sensitive to cefotaxime. In case of Salmonella Paratyphi A, by both disc diffusion and broth microdilution method, 88.89% strains were sensitive to cefotaxime by each method. About 81.48% strains of Salmonella Typhi and 88.89% strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A were sensitive to cefixime by disc diffusion method. By disc diffusion method, 70.37% strains of Salmonella Typhi and by broth microdilution method, 72.22% Salmonella Typhi strains were intermediate sensitive to ciprofloxacin. By disc diffusion method, 66.67% strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A and by broth microdilution method, 77.78% strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A were intermediate sensitive to ciprofloxacin. All the strains of Salmonella Typhi and Paratyphi A were resistant to azithromycin by disc diffusion method but 87.04% strains of Salmonella Typhi and 77.78% strains of Salmonella Paratyphi A were sensitive by broth microdilution method. To determine antimicrobial susceptibility, broth microdilution method along with disc diffusion method should be done especially in case of azithromycin. Treatment of enteric fever with the first line antimicrobials should be reconsidered after testing their susceptibility pattern.
Influence of Organisational Structure on the Efficacy of Gender Mainstreaming in Educational Institutions in Kenya
Authors: Choge Jepkemboi Ruth
Published: March 2024

The research investigated the correlation between organisational structures and the efficacy of gender mainstreaming in educational settings in Kenya. This study aimed to shed light on the relationship between organisational structure and the efficacy of gender mainstreaming by using secondary data analysis. The study’s results demonstrate a noteworthy association between the organisational structure of an institution and the effectiveness of its gender mainstreaming efforts. Based on the available data, the study suggests a refined organisational framework that prioritises the creation of gender units, the incorporation of affirmative action, and the crucial involvement of partnerships with pertinent stakeholders to enhance the implementation of gender mainstreaming initiatives. To optimise the effectiveness of gender mainstreaming, this study emphasises the importance of strategically allocating resources, creating gender-sensitive budgets and budgeting processes, actively engaging stakeholders, and implementing a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation system. One significant recommendation from the study is the significance of implementing localised action plans to guide broader gender mainstreaming goals. This study makes important contributions to policy changes and institutional restructuring in Kenya by presenting gender mainstreaming as more than simply a theoretical concept but rather as a practical and implementable method. By incorporating secondary data within its analytical framework, the study presents a novel perspective on the discourse around gender and education in Kenya. Consequently, it contributes to expanding the existing academic dialogue on this topic.
Teacher Qualification and Performance in Bomi and Margibi Counties, Liberia
Authors: Sherif Sorna F.
Published: March 2024

This study sought to assess teacher qualification in public primary schools in Bomi and Margibi Counties, Liberia. Teacher Qualification in this study is considered as Academic Qualification and Teaching Experience. Participants were 133 teachers and 8 principals from 16 public primary schools in Bomi and Margibi Counties. A simple random sampling technique was used to select the teachers, while a purposive sampling technique was used to select the principals for the study. A cross-sectional survey design, documentary review, brief observations and mini-interview were used. A semi-structured self-administered questionnaire, in addition to the open ended questions for the mini-interview was mainly used to collect the data. Research findings revealed that nearly half of the teachers studied in Bomi and Margibi Counties have teaching certificates required to teach at the primary level. However, there is a considerable number of teachers teaching in public primary schools that don’t have the required certificates. This stresses the need for teacher training to still be prioritized. The study also revealed that most of the teachers with the academic qualification to teach, never had teaching experience besides the mandatory teaching practices (practicum) done during training. Findings suggest that although more teachers hold the minimum teaching certificate ( C Certificate), teacher training should still be prioritized as there are still more teachers in the classrooms without any formal teacher training. Continuous professional development (CPD) should also be carried out regularly to boost the competency level of teachers who already hold the teaching certificate, but have little teaching experience.

The Role of Semantic Web Technologies in Improving Knowledge Management Systems
Authors: Shalom Gracie
Published: March 2024

Purpose: The general purpose of this study was to investigate the role of semantic web technologies in improving knowledge management systems.

Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.

Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to role of semantic web technologies in improving knowledge management systems. Preliminary empirical review revealed that that semantic web technologies significantly enhanced knowledge management systems across diverse industries, facilitating better organization, integration, and retrieval of knowledge resources. Adoption of these technologies addressed key challenges such as information overload and semantic heterogeneity, leading to increased discoverability, interoperability, and reuse of knowledge assets. However, successful implementation required considerations of factors like organizational readiness and user acceptance, necessitating investments in training, support, and change management strategies. Overall, semantic web technologies improved knowledge management practices and enhanced organizational competitiveness in the knowledge-driven economy.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Social Constructionism theory, Cognitive Load and Diffusion of Innovation may be used to anchor future studies on semantic web technologies. The study recommended that organizations invest in semantic web technologies for knowledge management, prioritize user-friendly KMS, foster a culture of collaboration, establish robust governance, and monitor KMS performance. These measures ensured effective knowledge sharing, decision-making, and innovation, enhancing organizational competitiveness and success.

Nuevas subjetividades infantiles: la identidad múltiple de Calvina en la obra de Carlo Frabetti
Authors: Romero Álvarez Carlos Esteban
Published: March 2024

El objetivo del presente artículo será demostrar que la novela Calvina (2007), de Carlo Frabetti, pone en juego una serie de estrategias retóricas “neo-subversivas” que desestabilizan los binomios hegemónicos (niño-niña, normalidad-anormalidad) a partir de los que se clasifican las identidades infantiles y que permiten más bien pensarlas como un proceso en constante desplazamiento. Así, primero analizaremos cómo la figura retórica de la ironía invierte los roles tradicionales para niñes y adultes. Posteriormente, abordaremos el rol de la parodia que revela la cualidad intertextual de toda identidad gracias a la contigüidad entre el estatuto transgénero de la narración, que se mueve entre lo maravilloso, lo fantástico, lo extraño y lo paródico, y el género ambiguo de le protagonista. Finalmente, revisaremos los efectos en el texto de la paradoja que funciona como una síntesis que modifica el significado tradicional de los objetos que designa y que cuestiona la supuesta homología entre sexo y género.
Modernism in Children’s Literature: The case of Gertrude Stein`s “The World is Round"
Authors: Betanzos Lara Soledad
Published: March 2024

Existe una discusión limitada sobre la relación entre los términos: Literatura Infantil y Modernismo. El flujo de la conciencia (stream-of-consciousness) en la literatura infantil parece no haber sido históricamente reconocida, nutrida, ni muy explorada por autores y/o ilustradores. El Mundo es Redondo de Gertrude Stein, publicado en 1939, proporcionó una exploración completamente nueva de los estados de ánimo de la infancia. Escrito en un estilo de prosa único, el libro narra la lucha de Rose de nueve años al explorar las ideas de identidad personal, el estar allá afuera (thereness) y la otredad mientras se la coloca en un mundo redondo.
El género, la madurez y la imagen en Seconds, de Bryan Lee O'Malley
Authors: Villanueva Mondragón Gabriela
Published: March 2024

El bildungsroman tradicional se caracteriza por ser protagonizado por un personaje masculino, generalmente joven, que debe pasar por un proceso iniciático o un viaje del héroe para convertirse en un adulto, o para adquirir un conocimiento hasta ese punto desconocido por él. Seconds, la novela gráfica de Bryan Lee O’Malley, publicada en 2014, subvierte la idea de la masculinidad y la infancia en el bildungsroman al utilizar como protagonista a una mujer de treinta años cuyo proceso iniciático es más una recuperación de la identidad que un camino hacia la madurez, y al final del cual descubre que los roles tradicionalmente asignados a las mujeres en un proceso de crecimiento no son los que la satisfacen, ni le ayudan a llegar a la plenitud que persigue.
La representación de la diversidad familiar en los álbumes ilustrados
Authors: Martín Sánchez Óscar José , González Menéndez Miguel
Published: March 2024

Es indiscutible la relevancia del fenómeno del álbum ilustrado y su influjo en el ámbito escolar en las últimas décadas. Por este motivo, en este estudio pretendemos realizar un análisis cualitativo que fundamente la permeabilidad de estos libros ante temas actuales y, en concreto, su grado de transparencia en cuanto a la representación de la diversidad tipológica familiar contemporánea. A partir del análisis descriptivo e interpretativo de los códigos lingüísticos e iconográficos en convivencia de las obras seleccionadas protagonizadas por diferentes tipos de familias —adoptiva; monoparental formada por una madre; monoparental formada por un padre; nuclear; separada; homoparental formada por dos padres; y homoparental formada por dos madres—, veremos cómo el álbum ilustrado, gracias al proceso cognitivo inferencial que supone la descodificación de la poética visual de la ilustración, se presenta como un artefacto ideal para la formación del lector literario actual y la alfabetización socioemocional de los más pequeños.
Extranjeros entre cómic y manga: el gaijin manga y la obra de Vicenzo Filosa
Authors: Quaianni Manuzzato Lisa Maya
Published: March 2024

Uno de los fenómenos más interesantes en el cómic reciente es el surgimiento, en diferentes países, de autores que, como migrantes entre diferentes culturas del noveno arte, se remontan a la producción manga en estética y narración, manejándola con su propio estilo y mezclándola a historias y temáticas de sus culturas. El término gaijin manga es una etiqueta, quizás imperfecta, que identifica artistas que tienen en común un producción underground y vanguardista, a menudo conectada con la autoedición.

La investigación pretende explicar qué se entiende por narrativa gráfica inspirada en los mangas, haciendo una rápida panorámica de las características de sus autores, como el argentino Berliac. Posteriormente, el núcleo del texto se enfocará en el italiano Vincenzo Filosa, punto de convergencia entre la tradición gekiga (cómic japonés de temática más realista), el cómic autoeditado e independiente italiano y el gaijin manga.
El yo y el otro. El aporte de Ortega y Gasset a la reflexión sobre la relación entre culturas
Authors: Cantillo Clementina
Published: March 2024

Este artículo aborda la relevancia de algunos de los principales aspectos de Ortega y Gasset y plantea los puntos de vista teóricos de su pensamiento en conexión con los estudios interculturales que es tán afectando tan dramáticamente hoy en día. Ortega señala la necesidad de una visión integradora de las culturas donde la humanidad pueda cosechar relaciones de confianza con respecto a su cultura y la de los demás, con respeto y comprensión de la diversidad. Aunque tal condición de obertura denota el “estatus” que pertenece a la estructura de la existencia humana; sin embargo, no determina de ninguna manera la naturaleza y la disposición buena o mala, positiva o negativa, pacifista o conflictiva de esta relación misma. La construcción real de un mundo que el espacio de una apertura hace po- sible es una tarea factual e inherente y exquisitamente humana.
En torno al prejuicio

El texto que se presenta como artículo científico es el producto de la realización de un proyecto académico en el Doctorado en Educación que actualmente cursan sus autores. Se trabajó desde la metodología de Aprendizaje Basado en Proyectos aplicado al área del diseño curricular que se relaciona con la congruencia interna entre planes de estudio. Se realizó una investigación documental de los lineamientos referentes a la Nueva Escuela Mexicana en Educación Secundaria y las Escuelas Normales y Formadoras de Docentes, después de realizar un análisis comparativo, se determinó que existe una congruencia interna entre ambas propuestas en relación a la flexibilidad curricular, al uso de metodologías activas de aprendizaje y a la participación en el codiseño de sus programas. Se encontró que en las Escuelas Normales hay diferencias estructurales y de contenido entre los planes 2018 y 2022, por lo que se propone la implementación de un Curso taller compensatorio para que el estudiantado analice los pilares de la Nueva Escuela Mexicana y sus lineamientos más importantes, además de reflexionar sobre sus ejes articuladores y la forma en que estos se integran a la realidad de los participantes y su comunidad.
DEL HOMO SAPIENS AL SENSORIUM, LA EVOLUCIÓN HUMANA “UNA MIRADA IRRACIONAL”
Authors: Acevedo Alemán Jesús
Published: March 2024

Desde los planteamientos de Darwin en 1856 sobre la evolución de las especies, y transitando por las reflexiones y hallazgos de la biología, antropología, neurociencia entre otras disciplinas, donde se reconoce la evolución del hombre, y no solo en lo biológico, sino en diferentes planos que van desde los cognitivos, sensoriales y sociales; que dan muestra a su vez, de un sujeto cada vez más evolucionado en permanente vinculación con sus contextos sociales e históricos. En tal sentido, el objetivo del presente ensayo, desarrollado a partir de la revisión teórica y referencial, es abonar en la reflexión sobre la presencia de una nueva evolución, el Homo Sensorium, distinguido por su capacidad mental, emocional y hasta sensorial que ha alcanzado mayores niveles que el promedio y le posibilita conectarse con otros y con su medio ambiente. Concluyendo que dicho nuevo humano, pueden ver, oír y sentir, todo lo que los demás están experimentando; destacándose por poseer un linaje genético que les permite contar con habilidades y destrezas por arriba del promedio.
La Superficie Polar de Gaspard Monge. Una aproximación desde el pensamiento gráfico aumentado
Authors: Martín-Pastor Andrés , González-Quintial Francisco
Published: March 2024

La Superficie polar de una línea curva se define como la envolvente de los planos normales que recorren la curva y se enmarca en el conjunto de las tres superficies desarrollables que se generan por el movimiento de los planos del triedro de Frenet, junto con las superficies tangenciales y las rectificantes. La idea de una superficie formada por los ejes polares de una curva lo debemos a Gaspard Monge que describió sus propiedades en Mémoire sur les développées, les rayons de courbure et les différents genres d’inflexions des courbes … (1785).Estas superficies, aunque aparecen mencionadas en algunos manuales de Geometría Descriptiva, no han sido descritas desde el punto de vista del pensamiento gráfico. Este artículo hace una revisión del texto primigenio de Monge, sacando a relucir algunas aplicaciones poco conocidas de las mismas y de gran interés para el diseño arquitectónico.

Purpose

The main objective of the study was to evaluate the correlations between fine movements of the hand, the tissue composition of the upper limb, and the occurrence of frailty syndrome in elderly people in the Polish population.

Methods

The study included 998 individuals living alone aged 60 to 87 years. Anthropometric and bioelectrical impedance measurements were taken, tests of motor skills of the upper limbs and functional efficiency were performed, and the phenotype of physical weakness was assessed.

Results

Participants identified as pre-frailty were observed to score less favourably in motor skills tests compared to other participants. The significance of the differences between the males and females was confirmed for most tests of precision, coordination, and speed of the upper limbs, in addition to the number of aiming errors. A correlation was observed between reduced fine movements of the hand and age, reduced functional efficiency, and low muscle mass of the upper limbs. Of all the included hand motor tests, only hand tremor scores in the stability test did not affect the risk of pre-frailty.

Conclusions

The study showed a significant, positive correlation between the fine movements of the hand, mainly with the weight and strength of the muscles of the upper limb, and negative in the case of the risk of frailty syndrome. It is advisable to focus on programs to raise awareness of the importance of physical activity, which translates into health and quality of life.

Generating ‘happiness’ : a semiotic and thematic analysis on experiences of consumption and media marketing strategies for Inanda parents
Authors:   , Mbili Sindisiwe Sweetness
Published: March 2024

This dissertation explored ways that parents in Inanda perceive and manage media messages and consumer choices within the generational demands to keep their children happy. Using the interpretive approach, the study looked at semiotic and general thematic analyses to understand the messages that parents respond to when raising young people in this township. The researcher also addressed the dynamic relationships that exist between consumer actions and how parenting takes place in the 21st Century. The study also pursued the main research problem of how the media plays a role in shaping consumer patterns among parents and it also explored the driving force behind Inanda parents’ consumption patterns in trying to create a ‘better’ world for their children by means of buying them material things. To address this, the researcher applied Arnould and Thompson’s (2005) consumer culture theory that looks at a form of material culture that is often driven by the market for consumers to attain a certain lifestyle. The secondary theory is McLuhan’s (1964) communication theory which upholds that the audience is a vital part of the communication process. The two theories are used to better understand how signs and symbols are communicated to consumers via the media, resulting in consumption culture. Using purposive sampling, the researcher conducted face-to-face interviews which were semi structured around the main research questions, with questions that are open-ended for probing purposes (See Appendix C) to critically analyse the effects and influence media marketing strategies have on how consumers receive and perceive these messages. Additionally, photographs of children (with permission from their parents) were used (with children’s faces blurred out) as part of data collection. The messages that are passed on to potential consumers through the media are usually in a form of signs and symbols and to better comprehend the main objective of this dissertation the use of semiotic and general thematic analyses put the researcher in a favourable position to decode, analyse, interpret, organise and define data in line with the view that semiotics is the study of signs and symbols in works of art (Ferreira 2007), while general thematic can be used to make sense of collective or mutual meanings and experiences by concentrating on context through present data (Braun and Clarke 2012). This project moved towards an understanding that media has the power to persuade young people into believing that happiness comes at a price and that their lives will only be perfect if they buy the latest products on the market (Klein 2000).

The article presents the results of studies on seasonal changes in the content of photosynthetic pigments in maple leaves. As a result, time series of pigment concentrations and values of 80 vegetation indices (VI) were obtained for three growing seasons (2021-23). It was found that the time series of a large group of VI (CARI, Carter4, Datt3, DD, Maccioni, MTCI, mSR2, NDVI2, OSAVI2, REP_Li, SR6, TCARI_OSAVI, Vogelmann2, Vogelmann et al. - in total, more than 25 VI) have a well-defined seasonal dynamics, coherent with the seasonal dynamics of chlorophyll concentrations. According to the test results, the models with CORE/OS AVI as an independent variable are the best for approximating the values of the chlorophyll sum. The NDVI index proved to be ineffective as a proxy metric for chlorophyll concentration. The seasonal dynamics of chlorophyll content and values in And is species-specific.
