A ÚLTIMA OFERENDA: REMINISCÊNCIAS DOS PAIAGUÁS EM JOSEFINA PLÁ
Authors: Cota Débora , Da Costa Reas Catiane
Published: September 2021

Desde a colonização os povos ameríndios têm sofrido com o apagamento ou mesmo a devastação de sua cultura. Lançar luz sobre suas existências é colocar em diálogo passado, presente e futuro. Tendo em mente essa breve e importante consideração, neste trabalho, apresenta-se uma breve análise sobre um texto que foi publicado poucos dias após a morte da escritora Josefina Plá (Espanha 1909 – Paraguai 1999), pelo jornal Correo Semanal de Assunção. La última ofrenda payagua é um texto no qual Plá escreveu sobre os paiaguás, comunidade ameríndia considerada extinta após a guerra do Brasil, Argentina e Uruguai contra o Paraguai. Assim, este estudo tem como finalidade entender a importância e a relação do trabalho de Josefina Plá com a cultura ameríndia. Mais especificamente, o trabalho se concentra em compreender de que maneira a autora recuperou reminiscências (BENJAMIN) da estética paiaguá em seus trabalhos com a serigrafia e a cerâmica e que servem como arquivo (ASSMAN) desta cultura. La última ofrenda payagua (1999) é um dos textos em que se percebe a tentativa de Plá para recuperar uma cultura que é irrecuperável, mas sobre a qual a autora procura afastar a escuridão imposta a ela na contemporaneidade.
TEATRO NEGRO NO BRASIL: UMA ANÁLISE DE “SORTILÉGIO”, DE ABDIAS DO NASCIMENTO
Authors: Batalini Marcela Gizeli , Feldman Alba Alba Krishna Topan
Published: September 2021

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar a peça Sortilégio: mistério negro, escrita por Abdias do Nascimento, em 1951, ao integrar o Teatro Experimental do Negro (TEN), no Rio de Janeiro, mas publicada apenas em 1961. Embora críticas tenham sido delineadas quanto a um viés ainda polarizado com relação as culturas apresentadas, bem como a aspectos estruturais das peças, comum nesse primeiro momento de atividades e discussões, não se pode ignorar sua importância na valorização da identidade negra, concedendo a tais indivíduos papéis centrais, a inserção da cultura afro-brasileira em primeiro plano, o que até então não era comum no teatro brasileiro, influenciando, portanto, diversos grupos atentos a essas questões na atualidade.
SAMUEL BECKETT E O IRRACIONALISMO COMO EXPRESSÃO IDEOLOGICA DA BURGUESIA
Authors: Maciel Ulisses Augusto Guimarães
Published: September 2021

A partir de uma realidade devastada pelos extremos do pensamento reacionário da primeira metade do século XX, Samuel Beckett (1906-1983) propõe uma ruptura com o realismo moderno, de modo a evidenciar o avançado estágio de decadência do modelo ideológico burguês. No presente artigo, discutimos justamente a influência desse contexto histórico-social no processo de composição da literatura beckettiana entre os anos de 1932 e 1953, sendo Dream of fair to middling women (1932), Murphy (1939), Molloy (1951), Malone morre (1951) e O inominável (1953) os romances que orientaram esse estudo em diálogo com a filosofia de Georg Lukàcs (1885-1971), dando ênfase às obras Marxismo e a teoria da literatura (1968) e The meaning of contemporary Realism (1969).
COSMOGONIA TAPUIA COMO RASTRO IDENTITÁRIO EM XILOGRAVURAS NO ROMANCE D’A PEDRA DO REINO
Authors: Pereira Marcos Paulo Torres
Published: September 2021

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar a constituição do campo simbólico empregado por Ariano Suassuna à ilustração de suas obras, principalmente aquelas que compõem o Romance d’A Pedra do Reino, no que tange à presença de um caráter ameríndio cosmogônico ressignificado pela interpretação mítica cariri que se instaurara em seu discurso, constituído por resíduos de memória e de mentalidades redivivos em rastros significativos que integralizam obras plásticas (eruditas e populares) e sinais rupestres em sua obra literária. Objetiva-se, ainda, debater a forma como esses rastros são constituídos num todo partilhado, distinto de sua origem, em marcador residual de presença de mentalidade ameríndia canibalizada em sua obra literária.
CONSIDERAÇÕES SOBRE A POESIA DE JÚLIA DA COSTA: O CÂNONE LITERÁRIO E O SILENCIAMENTO IMPOSTO
Authors: Luz Cleber Da Silva , Silva Sandro Adriano da
Published: September 2021

Este artigo discute a permanência e manutenção do cânone literário do século XIX, considerando-se o silenciamento que tal instituição gerou a autoras/es e obras, tendo como foco, especialmente, a obra da poeta paranaense Júlia da Costa (1844-1911). Para tanto, tomamos como aporte as discussões acerca do silêncio imposto (SONTAG, 2015) e das políticas de silenciamento (ORLANDI, 1997); as considerações sobre o cânone literário (CUNHA, 1999; BONNICI, 2011); e as teorias que amparam a leitura e a crítica do texto poético (PAZ, 2012; MOISÉS, 1989; CICERO, 2017), refletindo, assim, sobre os aspectos do Romantismo (GINSBURG, 1985; DUARTE, 2011) na produção em poesia da autora em foco.
A MARGINALIDADE LITERÁRIA E O UNDERGROUND EM O CHEIRO DO RALO, DE LOURENÇO MUTARELLI
Authors: Da Silva Damásio Marques
Published: September 2021

O objetivo foi analisar O Cheiro do Ralo (2002), o romance inaugural do cartunista Lourenço Mutarelli. O propósito é compreender a linguagem underground na estrutura híbrida dentro da forma do gênero romance. As teorias selecionadas de Bakhtin sobre o plurilinguismo e o skaz fundamentam a pesquisa a partir do discurso social e o trabalho crítico de Will Eisner (2010) sustenta a entrada da voz do autor através do trabalho artístico, principalmente, na linguagem da graphic novel. O Cheiro do Ralo representa um trabalho mediador de inclusão da literatura underground amparado pela linguagem marginal, que é, por sua vez, evidenciado pelo imaginário artístico. O cartunista converge para a escritura contemporânea em uma linguagem original que "conta e mostra" enquanto imagem e voz social na Literatura Underground.
RELAÇÕES DE PODER E A VIOLÊNCIA SIMBÓLICA: REPRODUÇÃO DE PRÁTICAS SOCIOCULTURAIS E A CONDIÇÃO DA MULHER EM CHOVE SOBRE MINHA INFÂNCIA
Authors: Bombassaro Dayana
Published: September 2021

RESUMO: Este estudo apresenta análises sobre as relações de poder, estruturadas pelos sistemas simbólicos, reveladas nas interações dos personagens da obra literária Chove sobre minha infância, romance de Miguel Sanches Neto (2014). A leitura voltou-se às representações da mulher no contexto da narrativa, com destaque para as vivências familiares e as práticas socioculturais de reprodução da violência simbólica invisível e naturalizada pelo domínio masculino, relacionada às personagens Nelsa, Carmem e às mulheres pintadas. O estudo abordou nuances no campo do poder simbólico em meio aos sistemas estruturados, tais como a família e a religião. Ao analisarmos essas práticas e estruturas na ficção, o estudo visa ampliar o debate sobre a realidade empírica da condição de muitas mulheres no âmbito familiar e lançar luz para a consciência dessas formas simbólicas de opressão. As reflexões analisam os significados que direcionam a ordem familiar em seus aspectos culturais e ideológicos, no jogo que envolve o poder simbólico nas relações de ordem dominante, as quais são reveladas numa estrutura social impregnada de opressão à mulher e a supremacia do homem. Práticas conservadas e reproduzidas pela estrutura social, que precisam ser problematizadas e repensadas.
Reflexión histórica sobre el Plan Austral: una proyección económica de reestructuración capitalista para la nueva era democrática (1983-1985)
Authors: Rossi Ignacio Andrés
Published: September 2021

La política económica en los años de la postdictadura (1983-1989), constituye un tema escasamente abordado por la historiografía económica reciente en comparación con otras etapas de la historia argentina. Especialmente, esto se acentúa con el Plan antiinflacionario Austral, lanzado en 1985 por el entonces ministro de Economía Juan V. Sorrouille (1985-1989), a pesar de haber contado con una profusa producción económica contemporánea. Teniendo en cuenta esto, proponemos indagar en los antecedentes y formulaciones iniciales del Plan Austral sosteniendo la hipótesis de que este, a pesar de haber sido un plan estrictamente antiinflacionario, contó con una proyección económica importante para la Argentina. Para ello, hemos realizado un rastreo de diversas fuentes que van desde la bibliografía económica contemporánea, testimonios y prensa periódica, hasta los últimos aportes de la historia económica reciente. Mediante un método histórico interpretativo de análisis y contrastación de fuentes de la época, apuntamos a rescatar la faceta de largo plazo del Austral, aunque los problemas económicos de la Argentina postautoritaria la hayan sepultado para siempre.
La producción de vacunas contra el COVID-19 como insumo para la competitividad del sector farmacéutico argentino
Authors: Cuello Mariana
Published: September 2021

La pandemia por el COVID-19, ha encendido las alarmas sanitarias en todo el mundo, impulsando a los principales laboratorios farmacéuticos a un rápido desarrollo de vacunas para luchar contra el virus. Los países desarrollados acuñaron las primeras vacunas lanzadas al mercado, aventajando a la periferia no sólo en la producción de estos medicamentos sino además en el reparto. Sin embargo, dentro del grupo de países de la periferia, Argentina ha logrado celebrar convenios de producción local de vacunas producidas en los países desarrollados. No debe ignorarse que Argentina compone uno de los países de la región con importantes capacidades de producción local y exportación. En esta línea, en este trabajo se examinan las posibilidades que representa la producción local de vacunas contra el COVID-19, como un instrumento de competitividad del sector farmacéutico argentino, a partir de determinados vectores de competitividad y de las proyecciones que el sector ha realizado para 2025, en un escenario previo a este fenómeno mundial.

When Agile meets Finance – een multiple-casestudy-onderzoek naar Agile Budgeting in de praktijk
Authors: Corbey Michael , Cornelissen Joline
Published: September 2021

Veel organisaties hebben de principes rondom agile (wendbaar) werken omarmd. Deze bijdrage gaat in op de vraag wat de gevolgen zijn van agile werken voor het budgetteringsproces in organisaties. Die vraag is relevant omdat uit de literatuur blijkt dat de principes van agile werken bijna haaks staan op de uitgangspunten van budgettering. Er wordt zelfs gesuggereerd dat een combinatie van beide niet mogelijk is en dat het budget moet worden afgeschaft in een agile omgeving. Dit laatste is typisch voor de Beyond Budgeting-literatuur.

Dit artikel bespreekt de resultaten van een multiple-casestudy-onderzoek in negen verschillende organisaties die agile werken. Het blijkt dat deze organisaties vrijwel alle principes rondom agile werken hebben omarmd en dat zij de ‘klassieke’ problemen rondom budgetprocessen herkennen. Toch hebben deze organisaties het budgetproces niet afgeschaft. In plaats daarvan laten de casestudy’s zien dat de budgetprocessen op vier hoofdpunten zijn aangepast aan de agile manier van werken. Als eerste vermindert men het aantal functies dat door een en hetzelfde budget moet worden vervuld door met name rolling forecasts en benchmarking toe te passen en het budget beter aan te laten sluiten bij andere bestaande management control-processen. Ten tweede wordt benadrukt dat het kortcyclische agile werken (met een variabele scope) vereist dat de aansluiting met strategie wordt bewaakt en dat dit eisen stelt aan de governance van de (project-)organisatie. Als het over die governance gaat, stelt men ten derde vast dat top-down-budgettering onmogelijk gecombineerd kan worden met agile: decentralisatie (bottom-up) is noodzakelijk. Dit laatste stelt (ten vierde) eisen aan de control-filosofie van de organisatie: er dient veel meer sprake te zijn van vertrouwen (trust) dan van controle voor- en achteraf.

South African elementary school learners' perceptions of computers as a technology : with particular reference to learners from economically disadvantaged and historically disenfranchised backgrounds
Authors:   , Mhlane Hintsa Zwelinzima
Published: September 2021

The purpose of this research study was to establish firstly, whether elementary school learners from previously disadvantaged communities do have negative perceptions towards computer technology and if these perceptions exist, to what they may be attributed. Secondly, there is a need to provide research-based approaches to the use of computers in education, particularly in the delivery and support of the curriculum. The international education community considers computer technology as a panacea for solving most of the epistemological and operational problems currently beleaguering the education enterprise. The development of learner perception should not be viewed in isolation but rather in the context of the two environments that the elementary school learner is exposed to; home and classroom. These environments are determined, largely, by socio-economic conditions, societal values, educational ideology and classroom praxis. The above determinants are fundamental in shaping the elementary school learner's perception of the learning process in general and the use of computer technology in the learning process in particular. Since the early 1970s, a myriad of teaching and learning programmes known as computerassisted instruction (CAl) and computer-assisted education (CAE) have been developed. Furthermore, computer technology has been used extensively as a pedagogical tool in a number of numeracy and literacy programmes. As a result of these developments it has become necessary to initiate serious research into Technology Education, in general, and the use of computers in education, in particular.
An evaluation of the suitability of the course Communication Skills 1, for engineering students at technikons in Natal
Authors:   , Narsee Sheila Devkaran
Published: September 2021

The title of this research dissertation includes the appellation 'Natal'. Since the work began in 1989, the name of that province has officially become 'KwaZulu-Natal'. However, the previous designation has largely been used interchangeably with the present one, mainly because the course evaluated was and has been identified with Natal. This research was inspired by the assumption that the Communication Skills I course presently being offered to engineering students at technikons in South Africa did not appear to satisfy the workplace needs (in terms of content and time) of the engineering industry. This assumption arose out of a pilot study undertaken by the writer in 1989. In this pilot study, engineering companies were visited, and interviews were held with managers/directors/training managers, to ascertain the communication skills requirements of engineering technicians in the workplace. Many criticisms were made regarding the communication competency of engineering technicians in the workplace. According to the findings of the pilot study, engineering practitioners hold the view that the literacy skill demands of jobs are increasing while the basic skills of the available workforce, eg. reading, writing and speaking are decreasing. Employers expressed concern with the large numbers of workers who lack such skills in listening, speaking, reading, writing and thinking, and believe that this limits their chances of upward mobility in the workplace as well as their ability to adapt to workplace changes. All these factors, according to employers, have a negative impact on productivity levels. It was, as a result of the pilot study, suggested that engineering curricula, specifically the Communication Skills I course, should be fully evaluated to see to what extent they meet the workplace requirements of industry. What seems important is that the engineering technician should practise what has been learned and for the lecturer/instructor to bring practitioners and the workplace experiences into the classroom.
Using Mixture of Normal Distributions to Detect Treatment Effects when the Frequentist Method Fails
Authors: Orlando Anthony
Published: September 2021

Background: Results from a clinical trial can either support the efficacy and safety of a new compound or fail to provide such evidence. One reason for ‘non[1]positive’ result is due to the underlying assumption of normality and homogeneity of variances, which are quite often violated when analyzing data from clinical trials, despite randomization. A question of interest is can we obtain more informative results when using mixture of normal distributions or linear models (MLMs) in such cases.

Introduction: MLM can be used when traditional methods fail. MLMs “search” within the variability in data to identify components or subgroups of individuals (also known as latent classes) who have common intercepts and common slopes of change in a variable/endpoint of interest but whose intercepts and slopes are different from other subsets of patients. Thus, MLMs can be used to identify subgroups of patients exhibiting differential response to treatment within each treatment arm. The purpose of our study was to examine the usefulness of using MLM in such circumstances.

Methods: Data of 155 subjects taken from a Multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial that evaluated the efficacy of Cpn10, administered twice weekly subcutaneously to treat Rheumatoid Arthritis was taken to evaluate the usefulness of MLM. The primary efficacy measure ACR20 was analyzed using a 3-step process: first, MLM was used to estimate RA duration using a 3-component model. The second step took the results of the first step to inform the logistic model and its analyses. Model was fitted with an intercept, MLM components, treatment arm, RA duration (linear and quadratic), dose response (modeled as an interaction effect), age and baseline weight. LOCF was used to impute for missing data. Data was analyzed using MLM and SAS v 9.0.

Results: The model was a good fit to the data with a likelihood ratio significant at p=0.026, and a significant increase in the -2log L. We also observed low p-values for those variables that were non normal. Overall and for the 75 mg dose, Cpn 10 was efficacious relative to placebo, p<0.050. We also observed that dose response was significant at p><0.15

Conclusion: The use of MLM adds value because it can be used to understand the disease experience or the value of treatment when traditional statistical methods cannot.

Key words: Mixture of linear models, normality, entropy.
Morphometric Evaluation of Fourth Ventricle by Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Authors: Mohammed Ambarak Osama Othman , Taib Abtehag A. , Abdalla Mohammad A. , Elsherif Alsanussi , Greiw Azza S H
Published: September 2021

Background: The fourth ventricle is one of the components of the ventricular system in the brain, along with the lateral and third ventricles. The ventricular size is considered as a potential indicator in determination of many brain diseases. There are dimensional differences between males and females which appeared larger in males.

Aim: The aim of this study was to determine the radiological dimensions of fourth ventricle and to assess their relationship with gender and age.

Subjects and methods: Brain Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) of 100 patients (44 males and 56 females) were examined. The dimensions of the fourth ventricle were estimated. Additionally, the variation with sex and age were also described. After collection and checking of data, Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) was used for data entry and analysis.

Results: The AP length of 4th ventricle of all patients ranged from 6.5-13.9 mm with mean (± SD) 10.67 ± 1.66 mm. In females, it ranged from 6.5-13.9 mm with mean (± SD) 10.48 ± 1.76 mm while in males; it ranged from 7-13.9 mm with mean (± SD) 10.92 ± 1.51 mm. The mean of 4th ventricle AP length of males were comparatively higher than females. Similarly, the 4th ventricle width of all patients ranged from 8.7-16.1 mm with mean (± SD) 12.06 ± 1.41 mm. In females, it ranged from 8.7-14.6 mm with mean (± SD) 11.85 ± 1.32 mm while in males; it ranged from 9.1-16.1 mm with mean (± SD) 12.32 ± 1.48 mm. The study showed that width of fourth ventricle was more than the AP length and both were greater in males than in females. AP length and width showed negative correlation with age.

Conclusion: The normal reference values of ventricles obtained from MRI are necessary to form the baseline data for interpreting pathological changes, planning surgery, and determining presence and progress of some neurological diseases. Furthermore, the dimension of fourth ventricle should be taken into consideration during radiological reports and during clinical examination.

Speaking is a productive skill that can be immediately observed. The major goal of all English language teaching should be to provide learners with the ability to use English effectively and accurately to achieve better communication. However, some students still have difficulty in speaking, because of their different performance levels. They process information differently and there is a difference in personality (extrovert and introvert). This current research is to investigate whether there is a significant difference between introvert and extrovert students on their speaking achievement at Cambridge School of English. 23 students were selected as the sample and their personality type was determined by using Eysenck Personality Questionnaire and their speaking score from the speaking test. This research was quantitative approach; a non-experimental research design. The result of the research reveals that there is a different mean score between the extrovert and introvert students although the difference is slight, the mean score of the extrovert students is 74 and introvert students is 76.54. Meanwhile by collecting numerical data analyzed using SPSS 22, the result of the independent sample t-test shows that the t-table is higher than t-count (-1.360<t-table 1.721), therefore H0 is accepted and Ha is rejected. It means that there is no significant difference between extrovert and introvert students in speaking achievement.

La gestión de gobierno abierto constituye la clave para lograr la transparencia y confianza de la población en las instituciones públicas, que impide que la información generada sea utilizada en forma permanente y con seguridad; facilitando el conocimiento de las acciones que la gestión pública viene desarrollando. El objetivo es examinar e analizar la evidencia científica existente referente a la gestión de gobierno abierto en las instituciones públicas, recurriendo a la base de datos de EBSCO, SCOPUS y SCIENCE DIRECT en inglés y en español de los últimos cinco años, utilizando el término “gestión de gobierno abierto”, descartándose artículos que no sean arbitradas y académicas. Teniendo como resultados que para transparentar la gestión en las instituciones públicas debe desarrollarse nuevos paradigmas en la gestión del gobierno abierto, iniciando con acciones de mejora en la generación de la información para su aprovechamiento de la población, en diferentes acciones de índole social o económico, sin sesgar la información restringiéndola a uso propio de la institución pública. Se concluye señalando que para una gestión de gobierno abierto eficiente y eficaz, debemos tomar en cuenta los retos que significa transparentar la gestión con el uso de datos abiertos para uso y beneficio de la población, transparentando las acciones y recursos que la administración pública invierte.

Dalam pembelajaran di kelas hendaknya memperhatikan beberapa aspek tidak hanya aspek kognitif dan afektif saja tetapi aspek psikomotorik juga perlu diperhatikan contohnya kreativitas siswa juga perlu diperhatikan. Apabila kreatifitas peserta didik dikembangkan sejak awal akan mampu membentuk kebiasaan cara berfikirnya yang sangat bermanfaat bagi peserta didik itu sendiri di kemudian hari.Dalam proses pembelajaran di kelas IX C SMP Negeri 1 Pogalan Kabupaten trenggalek belum semua siswa berperan aktif dalam proses pembelajaran di kelas. Permasalahan ini dapat terlihat pada saat guru menyampaikan pelajaran siswa cenderung pasif, diam dan kurang inisiatif. Hal ini disebabkan oleh rendahnya kreativitas siswa. karena pembelajaran masih dominan menggunakan metode ceramah sehingga sebagian besar siswa masih pasif dan pembelajaran berpusat pada guru(guru centris). Upaya yang diharapkan dapat membangkitkan kreatifitas siswa dalam pembelajaran IPS adalah menerapkan metode Peta Pikiran, yaitu dengan membelajarkan siswa cara mencatat yang baik yaitu melalui model pembelajaran Mind Mapping. Penerapan pembelajaran ini menekankan keaktifan dan kemandirian siswa, baik secara fisik amupun mental, siswa diberi kesempatan untuk belajar berfikir, menghafal, menghayati, bekerjasama, berinteraksi, kreatif, dan terampil.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hasil belajar dan kreativitas siswa pada mata pelajaran IPS kelas IX SMP Negeri 1 Pogalan,. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK), yang dilaksanakan dalam 2 siklus. Dalam setiap siklus terdiri dari 2 pertemuan dan melalui 4 tahapan yaitu tahap perencanaan tindakan, tahap pelaksanan tindakan, tahap pengamatan, dan tahap refleksi. Adapun subjek penelitian adalah siswa kelas IX berjumlah 32 siswa. Penelitian ini dilakukan pada bulan Juli dan September 2018. Hasil penelitian mampu meningkatkan kreativitas dan aktivitas siswa dalam pemelajaran. Hal ini tampak dari rata-rata hasil penilaian kreativitas siswa dengan kategori kreatif dan sangat kreatif mengalami peningkatan dari 57 % pada siklus 1 menjadi 67% pada siklus 2, berarti terjadi peningkatan sebesar 10%. Berdasarkan indikator keberhasilan, penelitian kreativitas siswa telah berhasil karena mencapai 67%. Sedangkan untuk  aktivitas siswa dalm kegiatan diskusi terlihat dari rata-rata hasil penilaian aktivitas siswa siklus 2 meningkat dibanding siklus 1 yaitu 25% aktif dan 75% kurang aktif mejadi 46% untuk siswa yang aktif dan 54% kurang aktif. Sedangkan pendapat siswa tentang pembelajaran ini 82,87% setuju apabila dalam pembelajarn geografi menggunakan peta pikiran.

Abstract. FORUM (Far-infrared Outgoing Radiation Understanding and Monitoring) will flight as the 9th ESA’s Earth Explorer mission, and an End-to-End Simulator (E2ES) has been developed as a support tool for the mission selection process and the subsequent development phases. The current status of the FORUM E2ES project is presented, together with the characterization of the capabilities of a full physics retrieval code applied to FORUM data. We show how the instrument characteristics and5the observed scene conditions impact on the spectrum measured by the instrument, accounting for the main sources of error related to the entire acquisition process, and the consequences on the retrieval algorithm. Both homogeneous and heterogeneous case studies are simulated in clear and cloudy conditions, validating the E2ES against two independent codes: KLIMA (clear sky) and SACR (cloudy sky). The performed tests show that the performance of the retrieval algorithm is compliant with the project requirements both in clear and cloudy conditions. The far infrared (FIR) part of the FORUM spectrum is shown to be10sensitive to surface emissivity, in dry atmospheric conditions, and to cirrus clouds, resulting in improved performance of the retrieval algorithm in these conditions. The retrieval errors increase with increasing the scene heterogeneity, both in terms of surface characteristics and in terms of fractional cloud cover of the scene.
A new odontocete (Inioidea, Odontoceti) from the late Neogene of North Carolina, USA
Authors: Godfrey Stephen J. , Gutstein Carolina S. , Morgan III Donald J.
Published: September 2021

Abstract. A new monotypic genus of Neogene odontocete (Isoninia borealis) is named on the
basis of a partial skull (CMM-V-4061). The holotype was found on the
riverbed of the Meherrin River (North Carolina, USA) and probably
originated from the Miocene marine Eastover Formation. Deep interdigitation
of the cranial sutures indicates that this individual was mature. The new
taxon differs from all other delphinidans in the unique combination of the
following characters: anteriorly retracted premaxillae and maxillae;
premaxillae not contacting nasals; thick nasals with ventrolateral margins
deeply imbedded within corresponding troughs in the frontals (this is an
apomorphy); nasals with transversely convex dorsal surface; nearly
symmetrical vertex; os suturarum (or interparietal or extra folds of the
frontals) at the vertex; large dorsal infraorbital foramen level with the
posterior margin of the external bony nares; and a postorbital recess on the
ventrolateral face of the frontal below and behind the postorbital process
of the frontal. This odontocete exhibits two small but pronounced
concavities on the cerebral face of the frontal/presphenoid that are
presumed to have held vestigial olfactory bulbs in life. Inioidea is only
diagnosed by a single unequivocal synapomorphy: width across nasals and
nares subequal. Isoninia shares this feature with other inioids and forms the basis
for the placement of Isoninia within this clade. A relatively high vertex coupled
with a supraoccipital that is deeply wedged between the frontals suggests
placement of this new inioid species within the family Iniidae. This is the
second inioid described from the Eastover Formation (the other being
Meherrinia isoni). This new species adds new cranial morphology and a new combination of
cranial characters to this taxonomically small but growing group of mostly
marine and mostly Western Hemisphere odontocetes (urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:E8B817CA-B250-42B3-9365-36EFBFE351C9).
