Authors: Ameen Hajar , Salem Salar
Published: July 2017

This study was conducted to assess the influence of slope aspect on some physical, chemical

and biological indicators of soil quality in Mountain in Brifka village that located at about

20 km east of Duhok province in Iraqi Kurdistan region, having the same climatic, and

vegetation. Soil samples were collected randomly and at uniform intervals along north and

south facing slopes aspect. The soil quality has been represented by some physical,

chemical and biological indicators such as: soil texture, bulk density, moisture content,

organic carbon, pH, electrical conductivity, soil basal respiration, microbial biomass C,

potentially mineralizable N and metabolic quotient. The results indicated that, except in few

cases, the majority of studied soil quality indicators were significantly affected by slope

aspect. The mount of soil moisture content, silt mineral fraction, soil organic C, soil basal

respiration, microbial biomass was significantly higher in north facing slope compared to

south facing slope, while sand fraction and bulk density were significant higher on south

aspect than north aspect. No significant differences were found in clay fraction, soil pH,

electrical conductivity, potentially mineralizable N and metabolic content. It was suggested

that the slope aspect has effects on soil quality indicators and for better rangeland and

landscape management it is very important to take the topographic aspect into

consideration.

Published: July 2017

In many parts of the world, there are rich traditions for the use of herbs in treatment of

many disorders. This study is compared self-use of concurrent medicines (herbal and

synthetic) (CM) with herbal only medicines (HM) among people of different genders,

ages, and education levels in Kurdistan Region major cities (Erbil, Suleimaniyah, and

Duhok). Self-administered structured questionnaires were randomly distributed among

587 respondents. The information obtained comprises the demography, gender, age,

education level, previous self-use of CM or HM and indications for which HM were

used.The highest ratio of respondents were males (50.6 %), herbal and concurrent

medicines users were (15.8%) and (84.2 %) respectively. In all age groups, ratio of

concurrent medicines users were higher than herbal medicines (p< 0.05), age groups of

31-40 and 51-60 years showed higher ratio among respondents with (23.5%) and

(94.3%) for herbal and concurrent medicines, respectively. Among users of different

educational levels, ratio of concurrent medicines were higher than herbal medicines (p<

0.01), university graduate and primary school educational levels were with higher ratio

of (33.9%) and (93.9%) for herbal and concurrent medicines, respectively. The highest

percentage of herb users was among people who suffered from gastrointestinal problems

(59%), respiratory tract (39%) and cardiovascular system problems (36%), while

musculoskeletal conditions were less often treated with herbs in Kurdistan Region (9%).

Almost 104 plant species were mentioned during the interviews with respondents

belonging to 57 families, the most diverse one Umbelliferae, followed by Brassicaceae,

Asteraceae and Rosaceae.

Authors: Mohammed Mardin , Amin Faraidoon
Published: July 2017

The current study was conducted to address the pathological conditions of ovaries of cows

slaughtered at the abattoir in Sulaimani province, Kurdistan Region-Iraq. Among the 404

genitalia samples collected from the non-pregnant animals, 206 (51%) were found without

gross pathological abnormalities (with cyclic activity) and the remaining

120(29.70%)samples were found with gross pathological abnormalities of ovaries. The

ovaries exhibited the highest percentage of lesions 29.70%. Detected ovarian lesions

included follicular cyst 10.89%, cystic corpus luteum 5.44%, mild ovariobursal adhesions

4.45 %, sever ovariobursal adhesion 0.25%, paraovarian cysts 3.22%, ovarian hypoplasia

1.98%, ovarian hemorrhage (hemorrhagic cystic corpus luteum) 1.48%, luteal cyst 1.24%,

ovarian agenesis 0.50% and ovarian tumor (Gonadoblastoma) 0.25%. Histopathological

examinations exhibited that the follicular cysts were lined by several layers of granulosa

and theca cell, while the luteal cysts had follicular granulsa and the theca cells with marked

luteinization of cytoplasm. Microscopically, the ovarian hypoplasia showed lack of

ovarian follicles and oocytes, while the cavities of paraovarian cysts were lined by a single

layer of cuboidal epithelial cells, and the hemorrhagic cyst showed scattered hemorrhagic

spots close to the lumen and luteinized of granulosa and theca cells layers of cystic wall.

Histopathologically, the ovarian gonadoblastoma (Dysgenentic gonadoma) was

characterized by dual population of germ cell tumor and sex-cord stromal tumor and this

observation has not been recorded in Iraq previously. It was concluded that ovarian

abnormalities constitutes an percentage 0f 29.70%. And ovarian gonadoblastoma was

Published: July 2017

Objective.The present study aimed to determine the alteration in hemodynamic and oxidative stress caused by gamma-irradiation in both sexes of rats. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four albino rats were randomly divided into two groups The first group includes twelve rats (Six males and six females) served as control, while the rats of the second group (six males and six females) were exposed to gamma radiation through 0.763 Gy from Cesium-137 radioactive source for two weeks. Results: Gamma radiation exposure significantly raised malondialdehyde (MDA) levels. Furthermore, serum AST activity was greatly altered by gamma-radiation, while the ALT activity significantly increased by the gamma radiation in female rats only. Irradiated animals caused signification in blood pressure. Gamma-irradiation animals for both sexes resulted in significant decrease in serum calcium (Ca+2) levels in both male and female rats. Conclusion, our results demonstrated that gamma- irradiated rats could increase tissue injuries markers and lipid peroxidation productions. Interestingly, the elevated blood pressure by gamma-ray exposure may be returned to high free radicals and changes in calcium ions.

Published: July 2017

Breast Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women and It is known that one quarter of women are expected to develop breast cancer at some ages of their lives. Mutations of breast cancer susceptibility genes 1 and 2 (BRCA1 and BRCA2) are the most well recognized gene mutations responsible for an increased risk of developing breast cancer. This investigation was carried out on 50 patients (all were females) who were diagnosed as breast cancer patients attended Nanakali and Rzgari Hospital in Erbil. This study was planned to detect the probable occurrence of three founder breast cancer mutations in female patients by the use of PCR technique. The outcome of genetic analysis indicated that the percentage of 185del AG mutation was 50 (1 patients) whereas, the percentage of 5382ins C mutation was 50 (4 patients) in BRCA1 gene and the third mutation 6174del T in BRCA2 not detected in any patient from 50 samples. The study demonstrated that the frequency of BRCA1 mutation (10%) was higher than BRCA2 (0%) in this sample of Kurdistan women with breast cancer.
The occurrence of L-GALACTONO- 1, 4-LACTONE DEHYDROGENASE (L-GalLDH) in L - ascorbate biosynthesis pathway from photosynthetic eukaryotes
Authors: Majed Sevan
Published: July 2017

L-Galactono-1, 4-lactone dehydrogenase (L-GalLDH) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the last step in the L-ascorbate pathway in biosynthetic eukaryotes. It is widely distributed in the different lineages of photosynthetic eukaryotes. Here, we hypothesized that there is a close evolutionary relationship between L-GalLDHsequences of these eukaryotic lineages. To test this hypothesis, we collected all homologous L-GalLDHsequences of photosynthetic eukaryotes from the NCBI databases. This article reports two results. Firstly, phylogenetic L-GalLDHtree shows that different L-GalLDHs in different species have an evolutionary relationship with each other because these enzymes are descended from a common ancestral gene via gene duplication events at the earliest stage of evolution. The gene duplication events can lead to an emergence of multiple paralogous copy within the species called as In-paralogs and also in different species called as out-paralogs. Moreover, the speciation events can lead to the formation of different L-GalLDHproteins in different species. Because they share from a common ancestral gene, theyhave a close sequence similarity and functional similarity with each other. Secondly, biochemical experimental evidence reveals the presence and absence of the activity of the L-GalLDHenzyme in some lineages of photosynthetic eukaryotes; plants, chlorophyta, phaeophyceae, bryophyta, and pteridophyta. It is worth highlighting a fact that L-GalLDHprotein was only present in the species of a vascular plant (Pisumsativum), chlorophyta (Blindingia minima) and rhodophyta (Porphyra purpurea). This research study attempted to provide a further insight into the L-GalLDHenzymes have been functionally and structurally evolved over distinct lineages of the eukaryotes and over times.

Published: July 2017

In this work silver sulfide (Ag2S) has been synthesized inside the PVA polymer by in situchemical reduction method. The UV-Visible spectrophotometer was used to study the optical properties of the prepared composite samples. The absorption spectra reveal the influence of Ag2S particles on optical behavior of PVA. There is an increase in refractive index of the samples contains Ag2S filler, and exhibits a dispersion behavior. The extinction coefficients of the composite samples are higher than that of pure PVA. The linear relationship between the refractive index athigh wavelength region and Ag2Sconcentration was observed, indicating homogeneous dispersion of the filler in the PVA matrix. The absorption coefficient shifts to lower photon energy at higher Ag2S concentration, in which the optical band gap will reduce.

Vitamin B12 deficiency widespread in developing countries especially in Africa, India and South and Central America, more common in elderly people. Skin manifestations correlation with vitamin B12 deficiency is poorly considered by physicians, as cobalamin deficiency is not alone presenting with dermatologic manifestations. Here in this study we have tried to show the various types of mucocutaneous manifestations among vitamin B12 deficiency patients and its significance. Systemic examination was done and Mucocutaneous findings were noted among 116 selected population of both sexes, aged >10 years presenting with vitamin B12 symptoms. Serum levels of vitamin B12 were determined using chemiluminescence immunoassays (CLIA) from Elecsys/Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany. Majority of the cases presented with hyperpigmentation changes (53.4%), hair changes(47.4%) followed by angular chelitis (37.9%), angular stomatitis (35.3%), nail changes (32.7%), cracks on skin (32.7%), atrophic glossitis (31.8%), vitiligo (31%), slatey pigmentation on face (27.5%). It was observed that as vitamin B12 levels in serum decreases, patients with mucocutaneous manifestations were increased. It was statistically significant (p<0.05). An expertise physician cautious look into manifestations and its correlation with laboratory investigations helps us to take clinical condition in a better way by proper diagnosis and accurate treatment.>

A adolescência é uma fase transformadora com desenvolvimento biopsicossocial. A gestação carrega consigo características transformadoras, com vivências únicas e subjetivas a cada gestante. É um momento caracterizado por profundos conflitos e emoções, pois afeta diretamente a identidade da mulher. Estar grávida na adolescência é um fator que intensifica a vivência de conflitos emocionais, acarretando sentimentos de impotência, ansiedade, raiva e culpa. Apresentar o trabalho realizado pela psicologia em um Pré-Natal de Adolescentes. O Pré-Natal de Adolescentes (PNA), do Hospital da Mulher - CAISM/UNICAMP é composto por uma equipe multiprofissional e oferece atendimento as gestantes de até 18 anos de idade. Os atendimentos psicológicos ocorrem através de demanda espontânea ou por encaminhamentos dos profissionais da saúde de forma individual e se necessário realizados também com a família e/ou acompanhante da gestante. O auxílio psicológico no PNA mostra-se como uma medida preventiva da saúde mental, de preparo à paciente para uma mudança significativa em sua vida, é necessário um olhar educador e acolhedor da psicologia, que favoreça na adolescente recursos e mecanismos internos para diminuir sentimentos e angustias que podem proporcionar sofrimento. O trabalho da psicologia com as adolescentes gestantes é essencial como auxiliar na ressignificação quanto a este momento de intensas transformações. A escuta ativa e o acolhimento, são formas de fortalecimento do ego materno, por meio da expressão de sentimentos relacionados à gestação e a compreensão da vivência gestacional na adolescência, o que pode facilitar o amadurecimento e o vínculo mãe-bebê.

Published: July 2017

A Organização Mundial da Saúde define Cuidados Paliativos como assistência promovida por equipe multidisciplinar, que tem como objetivo melhorar a qualidade de vida do paciente e de seus familiares diante uma doença que ameace a vida. A família tem papel importante neste processo, já que mais do que tratar uma doença, os “Cuidados Paliativos” trata de pessoas. A Psicologia pode atuar no sentido de apoiar o paciente e sua família, possibilitando um espaço de acolhimento para medos e ansiedades, colaborando para a participação adequada de ambos no processo do adoecimento. Este trabalho tem como objetivo descrever a experiência do acolhimento realizado aos familiares de pacientes em Cuidados Paliativos. O mesmo é realizado na Enfermaria de Oncologia Clínica do Hospital Prof. Dr. José Aristodemo Pinotti – CAISM, pela equipe de Psicologia. Ocorre através da busca espontânea de atendimento pelo familiar e/ou paciente, por encaminhamento da equipe multidisciplinar ou pela triagem do serviço, sendo feito pré e/ou pós óbito. Nota-se que o acolhimento é um espaço de escuta terapêutica que traz benefícios para os familiares e paciente, tendo em vista que este possibilita a elaboração e ressignificação do adoecimento. Concluímos que o acolhimento se faz necessário, pois é um facilitador na relação familiar, promovendo melhor comunicação e proporcionando recursos de enfrentamento no processo de adoecimento.
Reabilitação multidisciplinar em caso de reabsorção dental interna/externa
Authors: Santos Wellington Pereira , Soares Ilze , Tiziani Ângela
Published: July 2017

As reabsorções dentais são situações raras na Odontologia. Neste caso clínico, um paciente leucoderma, gênero feminino, apresentou-se na clínica odontológica do Cecom, para tratamento endodôntico do elemento 22. Ao exame radiográfico inicial, constatou-se a presença de reabsorção interna e externa do 21, que apresentava-se assintomático. A paciente não se recordava de ter sofrido trauma na referida região. A única queixa com relação a este elemento era a presença ocasional de uma fístula em gengiva marginal, da qual saia um exsudato. A paciente submeteu-se ao tratamento endodôntico e restaurador do 22, e a seguir ao tratamento multidisciplinar do 21 (endodontia, periodontia e dentística). Inicialmente o tratamento endodôntico do 21 foi realizado por um endodontista, obturando-se o terço apical da raiz com guta – percha + sealer 26, e o restante do conduto com MTA. Após 01 semana a paciente retornou para complementação estética do vedamento da reabsorção externa. Foi realizado um retalho em mucosa, por uma periodontista, o qual foi elevado, sendo a raiz debridada em seguida. Áreas vedadas com MTA, após a presa, ficam enegrecidas, daí a necessidade de substituição desta parte por um material mais estético. A partir daqui uma especialista em estética realizou a remoção desta parte do MTA, realizando em seguida uma restauração transcirúrgica com resina fotopolimerizável. Feita a restauração, a periodontista reposicionou o retalho e realizou as suturas. O caso está em acompanhamento há 18 meses, sem sinais de reativação das reabsorções e sem comprometimento periodontal.

A criança em movimento
Authors: Cruz Sandra Mara de Oliveira
Published: July 2017

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo mostrar as descobertas que as crianças da turma das “Borboletas” (convivência II) fazem com o seu corpo nos primeiros anos de vida, dentro da Creche Área de Saúde/ Unicamp. Nessa fase os pequenos começam a integrar os seus movimentos superiores e inferiores. Por isso, resolvemos trabalhar com circuito de movimentos, que visa o conhecimento dos limites do seu próprio corpo, fortalecimento da musculatura e exploração do espaço. Assim, andar, subir, descer, afastar, mexer e outras ações adquirem novas formas de exploração. Todo este processo, embora comum a todas as crianças, acontece de forma singular para cada uma delas. Através da motricidade a criança faz o seu conhecimento de mundo, explora situações, experimenta sensações, construindo desta maneira noções básicas para o seu desenvolvimento intelectual, modificando o meio onde está inserida. De acordo com as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais da Educação Básica (pág. 96, 2013) "a criança deve ter possibilidade de fazer deslocamentos e movimentos amplos nos espaços internos e externos às salas de referência das turmas à instituição, envolver-se em explorações e brincadeiras com objetos e materiais diversificados que contemplem as particularidades das diferentes idades". Cabe ao professor propiciar um ambiente “desafiador” para que as crianças possam, de maneira lúdica, vivenciar novas descobertas; porém, o mesmo não deve interferir e nem fazer avaliações definitivas com relação às vivências infantis. O projeto ainda está em andamento, pois pretendemos fazer um parâmetro das conquistas adquiridas ao longo do ano de 2016.

MOTIVASI TINDAKAN SALMAN FARIS DALAM MEMBANGUN DISKURSUS KARISMA TUAN GURU DI DALAM NOVEL TUAN GURU
Authors: Fauzan F.
Published: July 2017

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membongkar motivasi tindakan Salman Faris dalam membangun diskursus karisma Tuan Guru di dalam novel Tuan Guru. Data yang digunakan dalam penelitian adalah semua ekspresi bahasa maupun ungkapan-ungkapan yang merupakan diskursus karisma Tuan Guru yang terdapat dalam novel Tuan Guru serta data yang didapatkan melalui hasil wawancara dengan para informan yang dianggap paling representatif. Data yang ada dianalisis dengan teori diskursus oleh Foucault yang digunakan secara eklektik dengan teori simulacra Baudrillard. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa Salman Faris membangun diskursus karisma Tuan Guru atas dasar pengamatan dan interaksi sosial dengan masyarakat Lombok di tengah lingkungan Tuan Guru maupun di luar, sehingga Salman Faris berhasil membongkar motivasi tindakan Tuan Guru di tengah masyarakat Lombok yang memiliki tujuan untuk menjadi penguasa. Tuan Guru merupakan tokoh agama yang paling berpengaruh di Lombok.

MOTIF BURUNG HONG DAN SEKAR JAGAD UNTUK PENDIDIKAN KARAKTER (PEMAKNAAN ATAS BATIK LASEM)
Authors: Sudardi Bani , S. Novrasiloka
Published: July 2017

Artikel ini bertujuan mengungkapkan makna motif burung hong dan sekar jagat dalam motif batik Lasem, atau batik China. Ancangan teoretis yang digunakan adalah pendekatan hermeneutik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan prinsip eksploratif, yaitu dengan terjun ke lapangan untuk mengumpulkandan mendeskripsikan informasi di lapangan.

Penelitian menunjukan bahwa Lasem merupakan wilayah yang dihuni oleh etnis Tionghoa. Karena pembauran dengan orang Jawa, maka etnis Tionghoa di Lasem menghasilkan akulturasi budaya yang unik. Salah satu akulturasi adalah dalam hal produksi batik. Dalam hal batik, motif burunghong merupakan motif yang bermuatan budaya China yang memiliki makna dan karakter yang masih mempertahankan tradisi China. Sementara itu, dalam motif sekarjagat nuansa China bergeser ke karakter Jawa dan berpadu dengan budaya China dengan maksud tetap berpijak pada tradisi Jawa, tetapi terisi dengan ajaran dan karakter China seperti flora dan fauna China (naga, burung hong, gajah) dan betuk tulisan Cina atau sinografi karena melmbangkan simbol-simbol dan  karakter China

Kata Kunci: motif batik Lasem, karakter
DEKONSTRUKSI KARAKTER ARJUNA DALAM MAJALAH CEMPALA EDISI JANUARI 1997 DAN EDISI JULI 1996
Authors: Kurniawan Bagus
Published: July 2017

Di Indonesia, khususnya di Pulau Jawa, sejak masa Hindu-Budha telah mengenal dan berkembang tradisi pertunjukkan wayang. Bagi masyarakat Jawa, pertunjukkan wayang mempunyai nilai sosial yang penting. Pertunjukkan wayang tidak hanya dipandang sebagai sebuah tradisi yang harus dijaga dan dilestarikan, tetapi juga suatu bentuk tradisi yang mempunyai nilai sosial yang sakral. Oleh karena itu, tidak mengherankan apabila kemudian tradisi wayang digunakan sebagai sarana komunikasi maupun dakwah. Artinya, wayang bukan sekedar sarana hiburan, tetapi juga sebagai media komunikasi, media penyuluhan dan media pendidikan. Pemaknaan terhadap wayang masa kini mulai beragam, tidak hanya melalui dikotomi hitam-putih, tetapi juga melalui berbagai tafsir yang kemudian mendekonstruksi makna yang sudah mapan. Dalam tulisan ini akan diuraikan pembacaan lakon-lakon wayang melalui metode dekonstruksi. Dengan menggunakan beberapa lakon wayang berbahasa Indonesia yang diterbitkan dalam majalah Cempala, dalam tulisan ini akan diuraikan strategi pembacaan secara dekonstruksi terhadap karakter Arjuna.

Kata kunci: lakon wayang, Arjuna, lelananging jagad, dekonstruksi

Implementación de un modelo de entorno personal de aprendizaje en el Grado en Educación (Infantil y Primaria). Estudio de caso
Authors: Tarancón Álvaro Beatriz
Published: July 2017

El advenimiento de las nuevas tecnologías ha supuesto toda una revolución en el ámbito educativo. Tanto docentes como discentes tienen que adaptarse a una nueva realidad que trae consigo una enorme cantidad de retos. En este artículo se pretende mostrar, desde una perspectiva general, un estudio de caso en el que se propone a los alumnos la creación de su propio Entorno Personal de Aprendizaje (PLE) como apoyo a la docencia presencial y como herramienta de autogestión de las horas de trabajo autónomo propuestas en el nuevo Plan Bolonia. Se ofrece a los alumnos una plantilla a partir de la cual ellos pueden personalizar su PLE de acuerdo con sus preferencias e intereses.  Se lleva a cabo asimismo un seguimiento del proceso a través de encuestas facilitadas a los alumnos (antes, durante y después de la entrega de la plantilla) y finalmente, una vez analizados los datos, se extraen una serie de conclusiones al respecto.
Optimization of Spacing and Penetration Ratio for Infinite-Conductivity Fractures in Unconventional Reservoirs: A Section-Based Approach
Authors: Liu S.. , Valkó P. P.
Published: July 2017

In this paper, we consider the development plan of shale gas or tight oil with multiple multistage fractured laterals in a large square drainage area that we call a “section” (usually 640 acres in the US). We propose a convenient section-based optimization of the fracture array with two integer variables, the number of columns (horizontal laterals) and rows (fractures created in a lateral), to provide some general statements regarding spacing of wells and fractures. The approach is dependent on a reliable and efficient productivity-index (PI) calculation for the boundary-dominated state (BDS). The dimensionless PI is obtained by solving a time-independent eigenvalue problem by use of the finite-element method (FEM) combined with the Richardson extrapolation.

The results of the case study demonstrate two decisive factors: the dimensionless total fracture length, related to the total amount of proppant and fracturing fluid available for the section, and the feasible range of actual fracture half-lengths, related to current fracturing-technology limitations. Under the constraint of dimensionless total fracture length, increasing the number of columns (horizontal laterals) increases the total PI but with only diminishing returns, whereas the optimal fracture-penetration ratio decreases somewhat, but is still near unity. When adding the technological constraint of a limited range of fracture half-lengths that can be routinely and reliably created, only a few choices remain admissible, and the optimal decision can be easily made. These general statements for the ideal homogeneous and isotropic formation can serve as a reference in the more-detailed optimization works. In other words, we offer a first-pass method for decision making in early stages when detailed inputs are not yet available. The information derived from the section-based optimization method and the efficient and reliable algorithm for PI calculation should help the design of multistage fracturing in shale-gas or ultralow-permeability oil formations.
Microbiological contamination of water pans in Baringo County
Authors: Kurui Edith J. , Ogendi George M. , Moturi Wilkister N.
Published: July 2017

Water pans constitute the main source of rural water supply in Baringo County. This study sought to assess the spatial-temporal variation of total coliforms, Escherichia coli, Fecal streptococcus and Salmonella species in the water pans. A sanitary survey was conducted to observe the potential sources of microbial contamination on the water pans. Water was sampled from one protected and five unprotected water pans (n = 6) in the study area for a period of 4 months (June–October 2015). A total of 72 water samples were sampled in triplicate from the water pans for microbial analyses, membrane filtration technique was used in assaying for microbial counts of total coliforms, E. coli, F. streptococcus and Salmonella species in water samples. The results show that there was a significant spatial variation in F. streptococcus amongst the protected and the unprotected water pan sampled sites (p = 0.008), and there was a statistically temporal significant difference (p = 0.001) for total coliforms and Salmonella species during the dry seasons, respectively. Given the prevalence of the selected diseases causing pathogens in water above the WHO drinking water quality guidelines, households are advised to treat the water before use.
Improving governance in transboundary cooperation in water and climate change adaptation
Authors: Timmerman Jos , Matthews John , Koeppel Sonja , Valensuela Daniel , Vlaanderen Niels
Published: July 2017

Climate change adaptation in water management is a water governance issue. While neither climate change nor water respects national borders, adaptation in water management should be treated as a transboundary water governance issue. However, transboundary water management is, in essence, more complex than national water management because the water management regimes usually differ more between countries than within countries. This paper provides 63 lessons learned from almost a decade of cooperation on transboundary climate adaptation in water management under the UNECE Water Convention and puts these into the context of the OECD principles on water governance. It highlights that good water governance entails a variety of activities that are intertwined and cannot be considered stand-alone elements. The paper also shows that this wide variety of actions is needed to develop a climate change adaptation strategy in water management. Each of the lessons learned can be considered concrete actions connected to one or more of the OECD principles, where a range of actions may be needed to fulfil one principle. The paper concludes that developing climate change adaptation measures needs to improve in parallel the water governance system at transboundary scale.
