ICESAT-2 LASER ALTIMETRY DATA-GUIDED HIGH-ACCURACY POSITIONING OF SATELLITE STEREO IMAGES
Authors: Zou S. , Pan H. , Zou Z. , Zhang Y. , Wu S.
Published: May 2022

Abstract. Positioning accuracy is a key indicator that restricts the accuracy of satellite image mapping. Laser altimetry acquires surface height in decimeters or higher accuracy, providing high-accuracy topographic information for satellite photogrammetry. This study proposes a four-step high-accuracy positioning method called laser altimetry data-guided stereo images positioning (LGSP): photon outlier removal, digital surface model (DSM) generation by a variant of the tube-shape semi-global matching (tSGM), fast point cloud alignment, and DSM and rational function model (RFM) refining. First, outliers of the laser altimetry data are filtered out via confidence selection and open access DSM constraints. Second, the DSM around high-accuracy photons is generated via the variant of tSGM. Third, fast point cloud alignment is performed to align the DSM with laser altimetry data. Finally, we propose a high-resolution stereo model refinement method based on alignment parameters. Experiments on two satellite stereo datasets with different loads, resolutions, and topographies show that LGSP improved the planimetry accuracy of satellite stereo images after adding laser altimetry data. What’s more, LGSP significantly improved the height accuracy of satellite images. Specifically, LGSP reduced the height errors from the original 5.99 m to 1.00 m for the Ziyuan-3 stereo dataset and from the original 20.39 m to 0.83 m for the Gaofen-7 stereo dataset, and slightly outperformed bundle adjustment in which four ground control points were deployed around the four corners of the stereo images. RFM refining based on alignment parameters has been made publicly available at https://mega.nz/file/EFQASJ6A#BKjoupHVshylQR4wCxGd9BDtg08bhy-_aY-c_rHnl-0.

Published: May 2022

Abstract. Satellites in orbit are affected by changes in thermal environment and other factors, and the angle of optical axis between the camera and star tracker (Cam-ST) changes. As a result, the attitude measurement error of the orbital period appears, leading to a decrease in the accuracy of the geometric positioning of the image. This paper proposes a star observation mode, using the stars as the control point, so as to detect the angle change between the Cam-ST throughout the orbital period. This paper is based on 20 sets of star observation data from the Jilin-1 video satellite. Through methods such as star point extraction and pre-recognition, the camera's pointing in the inertial space is obtained. Then the angle with the optical axis of star tracker (ST) is calculated, and the error law of the angle between the Cam-ST is obtained. The experimental results show that the Cam-ST optical axis angle will produce a regular error change during the satellite orbit period. After fitting, the error of the angle between the camera and the star tracker (Cam-ST) is reduced from 47.86" to 5.63". Through the method of star observation, the errors between Cam-ST angle can be effectively improved. The high accuracy of the camera's pointing measurement within the orbit period range is of great significance for satellite global mapping without ground control points (GCPs).

Published: May 2022

Abstract. China's coastal wetlands have an extensive spatial span and a long coastline, which causes very significant regional differences in the coastal geographical environment. Compared with traditional field surveying, multi-source spatio-temporal data can quickly collect coastal landscape pattern and dynamic evolution information, thus saving a lot of labor, material resource and time cost. In this study, time series high resolution image and luminous thematic data (2015-2019) were adopted for the characteristics of human activity and spatial dynamics assessment in China’s coastal zone. The results demonstrated that the proportion of man-made landscape types in the China’s coastal zone has exceeded 50%, and indicates a steady growth trend with an average annual growth area of 308.35 km2. In the past five years, the natural land has been continuously transformed into the artificial land. The different development behaviors have caused the spatial differentiation of landscape pattern in coastal zones. The coastal landscape dynamics of China’s coastal zones is bounded by the Hangzhou Bay. The comprehensive dynamic attitude in the north is higher, while the comprehensive dynamic degree in the south is concentrated in Hangzhou Bay, Zhejiang, Fujian, Pearl River Delta and Hainan Island. The spatial characteristics of the radiation brightness demonstrate that the change of human activities in the coastal zone is universal in urban and non-urban areas throughout the past five years. The spatial correlation between noctilucent radiation and landscape change in coastal zone is significant year by year, which concludes that human activity is the main driving force of coastal landscape pattern evolution.

Abstract. Among a few field experiments on wind turbines for analyzing laminar-turbulent boundary layer transition, the results obtained from the DAN-AERO and aerodynamic Glove projects provide significant findings. The effect of inflow turbulence on the boundary layer transition and the possible transition mechanisms on wind turbine blades are discussed and compared to CFD simulations of increasing fidelity (RANS, URANS and LES). From the experiments, it is found that the transition scenario changes even over a single revolution with bypass transition taking place under the influence of enhanced upstream turbulence from e.g. wakes and natural transition at other times under relatively lower inflow turbulence conditions. This change from bypass to natural transition takes place at azimuthal angles directly outside the influence of the wake indicating a quick boundary layer recovery. The importance of a suitable choice of the amplification factor to be used within the eN method of transition detection is evident from both the RANS and URANS simulations. The URANS simulations which simultaneously check for natural and bypass transition match very well with the experiment. The LES predictions with anisotropic inflow turbulence show the shear-sheltering effect and a good agreement between the power spectral density plots from the experiment and simulation is seen. A condition to easily distinguish the point of transition to turbulence based on the Reynolds shear stress term is also observed. Overall, useful insights of the flow phenomena are obtained and a remarkably consistent set of conclusions can be drawn.

Authors: Ahmad Tusawar Iftikhar , Bashir Furrukh , Zafar Muhammad Ali
Published: May 2022

Energy consumption—in all its forms (traditional, transitional, and modern)—is the lifeline of an economy as well as of a society. Electrical energy (power) is the modern form of energy that is produced from hydel, thermal, nuclear, and other sources. Gas, oil, and coal are the thermal sources of electricity generation. Literature has validated the coal and natural gas consumption-led growth hypothesis for Pakistan. Based on time series data taken for the period 1987-2019, the present study attempts to explore the economic growth implications of oil-, gas-, and coal-consumption in power sector in Pakistan. The data was obtained from World Development Indicators (WDI) and from the Pakistan Economic Survey (PES). Three econometric models were specified to check the short-run and long-run effects of energy consumption (in the form of oil, gas and coal) in power sector on economic growth. Auto-regressive Distributed Lag Model (ARDL) was used for empirical analysis. The results show that the consumption of gas and coal in the power sector have a positive and statistically significant effects on the economic growth of Pakistan. The study advocates for more reliance on gas and coal in power generation as compared to oil for economic growth in Pakistan.

Published: May 2022

The basic purpose of this study is to identify a link concerning tourism, pecuniary expansion, and environmental protection in developing countries. The current research looks at the overall state of emerging economies as well as income comparisons. The study employs the 3sls model. Tourism benefits from economic growth as well. Tourism is attracted by economic prosperity, and tourism will increase tourism. According to the findings, economic growth has a negative impact on the environment, and the environment has an adverse effect on economic growth. As income activity accelerates, so will environmental emissions, and environmental emissions have a detrimental impact on economic growth? Further findings imply that tourism has a favorable impact on the environment, with an increase in tourism causing a depreciation of the ecosystem. Environmental pollution has a favorable effect on tourism, as the majority of people travel to other countries for business and religious reasons. This can be found in all models. The exchange rate has a negative influence on the overall and high-income groups, but a favorable effect in the reduced groups. In all models, the other variable, political instability, has a negative effect on tourism, while trade has a favorable effect. GDP is boosted by the literacy rate and gross capital formation Population increase, urbanization, and energy use all have a favorable impact on environmental emissions, according to the study. According to the findings, host nations should not only encourage tourism, but also guarantee that the environment is not harmed, therefore ecofriendly must be pushed to maintain a seamless and sustainable development process.

Impact of Modernized Agriculture and Trade on Carbon Emissions: The Role of Fossil Fuel and Renewable Energy Consumption Evidenced from ASEAN States
Authors: Bhatti Muhammad Azhar , Fazal Snober
Published: May 2022

Sustainable development goals developed to reduce the level of climate transformation and its effects, this study explores the causal association between aggregate energy consumption resources, trade liberalization, CO2 emissions, and modern agriculture in selected ASEAN nations from 2000 to 2018 with the help of panel FMOLS (fully modified ordinary least square). Empirical findings have shown that the value addition level of agricultural products minimizes CO2 emissions in those countries where pollution is high. And found a positive relationship between energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Trade liberalization has made it possible to reduce CO2 emissions in economies where environmental pollution is getting lower. While the use of fossil fuels has intensified CO2 emissions, renewable energy consumption has confirmed positive effects on the pollution of the environment. While Climate-smart agriculture preferred institutions to raise income and productivity, adjusting to climate change sustainably leads to decreased greenhouse gas emissions. For example, new energy resources, renewable energy help keep the environment clean and healthy. It avoids excessive dependency on fossil fuel energy for the determinants of the agriculture sector. On the other hand, Trade policy can motivate the flow of investment opportunities and technology for a specialty in economies of scale and production. Therefore, examining strategies that encourage the agricultural sector's productivity and creating active markets for international trade in ASEAN countries will improve living standards and keep the environment clean and healthy.

Entamoeba histolytica is an intestinal protozoan parasite causing amoebiasis, a severe public health issue in impoverished countries. It affects up to 50 million individuals worldwide and is the second leading cause of parasite associated mortality after malaria. Despite significant progress in deciphering the pathobiological causes of the disease over the last several decades, knowledge regarding the molecular pathways involved in tissue invasion process and damage during both intestinal and extra intestinal amoebiasis remains scarce. The multiple complex pathways to achieve the pathogenesis seem to provide an evolutionary benefit to this organism. Recent findings revealed that adhesion to host cells, virulence factors, secreted proteinases, cell cycle regulatory mechanisms play a critical role in pathogenesis of this human pathogen. In this chapter, we have summarized the recent research findings related to the pathogenesis of E. histolytica. A comprehensive understanding of its pathogenesis might assist in the identification of possible anti-amoebic targets and strategies to combat the pathogen in the near future.

新冠病毒大流行期間的遠距模擬會議和遠距口譯教學：師生觀點
Authors: 汝明麗 汝明麗
Published: May 2022

2020年初新冠肺炎疫情爆發，在短短數月間演變為全球大流行。四月時，筆者任教大學亦因兩名學生先後確診，於是展開了為期三週的遠距教學。另外因學期初排定的口譯模擬會議也恰巧落在同一期間，故讓本所師生有機會能夠同時體驗遠距口譯教學及遠距模擬會議，對許多師生均為全新體驗，效果如何值得深究。

 筆者任教系所從四月初起改為遠距授課三週，其中包括遠距模擬會議。而口譯師生是否會因此對遠距口譯授課及工作產生不同想法，無論是感受到從想像到親身實踐的差異、未來實務工作趨勢，或是這對於後疫情時代的口譯教學會造成何種影響，皆為本研究欲探討的議題。

本研究藉由先量性後質性的混合式研究方法，在三週遠距教學及模擬會議結束後隔週，透過線上問卷蒐集教師與學生的意見，其後從問卷結果整理出與研究問題相關的議題，並邀請部分填答學生進行深度訪談。

希望藉由分析問卷及訪談結果，了解口譯實務導向課程一旦改為遠距，將遭遇哪些困難，又解決了哪些問題。此外，從遠距模擬會議的參與經驗或可一窺未來口譯市場的新趨勢，如將來如何教育客戶，使他們了解遠距／實體會議中口譯員的需求。透過結合兩方面的親身體驗，亦可重新思考口譯的本質。

長期以來，教學與會議口譯皆極為重視面對面的互動，但在數位化及新冠疫情的推波助瀾下，遠距口譯教學與遠距口譯似乎已勢不可擋。後疫情時代的發展無人能夠預知，本研究希望能超越遠距授課或口譯的經驗，重新思考口譯與口譯教學在實體或遠距環境下的意義，師生攜手一齊超前部署。

The COVID-19 outbreak has spread quickly to be a global pandemic in early 2020. The university to which the researcher’s translation and interpretation institute belongs had two confirmed cases in April. This ushered in university-wide remote teaching for three weeks as required by government measures to contain the viral spread. The mock conference, as originally scheduled for the same period, was conducted remotely as well. Many teachers and students of interpreting at the institute experienced for the first time both remote teaching of interpretation and a remote mock conference.

The research aims to look into how teachers and students think about the new experience, including whether and how the remote interpreting classes and the mock conference differ from in-classroom experience, what implications there may be for the education and practice of conference interpreting once things go back to normal.

A mixed research method was adopted. First, an online survey was administered to teachers and students of the institute right after the remote mock conference, which coincided with the end of the three-week remote teaching. The results from the survey later fed into in-depth interviews the researcher had with some of the respondents.

 By analyzing findings from the survey and interviews, the study is expected to identify possible challenges and benefits of distance interpreting and remote interpreter training.

For years, face-to-face interaction has been highly valued by both conference interpreters and educators. However, the accelerated adoption of digital technology during the pandemic reminds teachers and students of interpreting to evolve and embrace new modes of interpreting and training in the post COVID-19 era.

 
專利「逆向翻譯」的成功因素探討
Authors: 陳佳伶 陳佳伶
Published: May 2022

「逆向翻譯」（inverse translation）──即「以書面或口頭形式從譯者的本族語言或常用語言譯出的翻譯形式」（Shuttleworth, 2004），其品質則大多被質疑可能不夠精準或必定存在錯誤。在此普遍的認定下，針對逆向翻譯的研究也相對稀少。Pokorn 2005年的研究證明，母語並非影響翻譯至目標語言的品質、流暢度及可接受度的絕對因素。本文以Pokorn提出的研究結果為出發點，針對以中文為母語的英譯者在逆向翻譯上的策略研究，訪談三位從事英文專利翻譯的專業譯者，提出此類文件的逆向翻譯在實務上所需具備的能力，並以英語為母語者的修訂意見作為主要資料，探討中文母語譯者在逆向翻譯上的表現。本研究提出專利領域逆向翻譯的成功因素，包括譯者自身語文專業能力和設定有效的翻譯策略，或可作為新進譯者學習的目標，及翻譯系所在課程設計上的參考。

 

The quality of “inverse translation”- that is, “a form of translation from the translator’s native or common language in written or oral form” (Shuttleworth, 2004), - has mostly been questioned as possibly inaccurate or necessarily erroneous. Under such a common assumption, research on inverse translation is also relatively scarce. Pokorn’s 2005 study demonstrates that mother tongue is not an absolute factor affecting the quality, fluency and acceptability of translation into the target language. This paper takes on Pokorn’s findings as the starting point, to investigate the strategies of Chinese-speaking English translators in inverse translation of patents. From the current situation of translation practice, three translators of patent specifications into English were interviewed to propose the required skills for inverse translation in the technical fields, mainly of patent specification translation. This study suggests the success factors of inverse translation in such fields include the translators’ own language expertise and setting effective translation strategies, which may serve as a learning objective for new translators in paten translation and a reference point for curriculum design of translation departments and graduate programs.

On oral examination, left lingual hemiatrophy was evident suggesting hypoglossal nerve involvement. A dumbbell-shaped extra-axial mass in the left side of the caudal fossa extending extracranially through the hypoglossal canal was detected by MRI. At postmortem histologic examination, the hypoglossal nerve was diffusely infiltrated by fusiform neoplastic cells arranged in Antoni A and Antoni B patterns. This is the first description of a malignant nerve sheath tumor selectively involving the hypoglossal nerve in a dog.
Problem-Based Learning Strategies and Critical Thinking Skills Among Pre-Service Teachers
Authors: Benedicto Patricia Nicole , Andrade Rose
Published: May 2022

Mathematical underachievement among students was not only a source of concern in the Philippines, but has now spread throughout the world. Low critical thinking skill among Filipino students is one of the causes contributing to the country’s poor performance in mathematics. Students’ lack of critical thinking abilities may be due to teachers’ knowledge and expertise. To explore the critical thinking skills of pre-service teachers through the use of problem-based learning strategies is the main objective of the study. Quasi-experimental with a counterbalanced design was employed, presenting two problem-based learning strategies namely authentic strategy and non-linear strategy to two groups of teacher candidates. The results showed that students’ critical thinking skills in evaluating arguments and drawing conclusions are lacking. There is also a substantial difference in critical thinking skills between students in groups 1 and 2, except for the capacity to recognize assumptions. The pre-service teachers’ critical thinking skills do not differ significantly by sequence. The study results indicated that the pre-service teachers’ critical thinking skills were still low, particularly in terms of evaluating arguments and drawing conclusions due to inadequate background knowledge and lack of in-depth understanding of the mathematics concepts. The results imply that schools focus more on building strategies to improve and develop students’ critical thinking skills in mathematics education. Moreover, the study suggests that further research develop successful techniques for planning effective initiatives to increase critical thinking teaching and learning in higher education and training programs that could help improve the students’ critical thinking skills.

Cancer is a term used to describe a group of disorders in which the body's cells alter and grow out of control. Most cancer cells eventually join together to create a mass known as a tumor, and are named according to the name of the part of the body from which the tumor originates. The Cancer is one of the diseases that have the ability to grow in unlimited fission of the body’s cells and the ability of these cells to attack and destroy nearby tissues or move through the blood to distant tissues and this is called a malignant tumor, and there is a second type characterized by specific growth and its inability to attack and move called "Benign tumor", which can develop into a malignant tumor. The goal of this research was to find out the levels of fibronectin and glutathione (GSH) as antioxidants and malaondialdehyde (MDA) as oxidative stress indicator in a group of patients of breast cancer and to compare the results with healthy one.

Nuestra propuesta fue creada a partir de una iniciativa del semillero de Interrelaciones de la Corporación Universitaria Colegiatura Colombiana con el fin de contribuir a la necesidad de promover acciones comunitarias que conecten y sensibilicen la sociedad civil con relación a la violencia producto del conflicto armado y otros conflictos sociales. Para ello nos basamos en recursos simbólicos a través del arte, el vestido y la memoria de los conflictos y las diversas violencias que enfrentamos en nuestro país, en particular el conflicto armado y las violencias derivadas del mismo. En síntesis, se hicieron tres grandes propuestas: Metamorfosis (enfocada en conflicto y memoria), Desastres naturales en Medellín y El Teatro de la Memoria (enfocado en la desaparición forzada). Sin embargo, por cuestiones de espacio no se expondrán en detalle.

El hogar infantil vecinal del barrio popular de Kennedy en Pereira, a causa de la pandemia por el Covid-19 tuvo que cerrar sus puertas a los niños de dos a cinco años, lo que limitó la educación a la virtualidad. Por esta razón, las clases que antes se desarrollaban durante toda la semana pasaron a ser llamadas telefónicas semanales de control, actividades en casa y una clase virtual los viernes de una hora. En el caso de la clase que dirige la profesora Juli Quiceno, de los diecisiete niños que conforman el grupo, solo asisten cinco. Asimismo, hay un muy bajo cumplimiento de las tareas. Situación que se debe especialmente a la falta de involucramiento de los padres en las actividades y educación de sus hijos. Al respecto, es importante aclarar que el hogar infantil vecinal hace parte de las iniciativas del instituto colombiano de bienestar familiar (ICBF) para asegurar que los menores de edad de bajos recursos tengan una educación básica.

La pandemia producto del Covid-19 trajo una serie de problemas no solo en el área de la salud, sino también en áreas como la economía y como la educación. En el caso del departamento del Atlántico, puntualmente los municipios al sur del departamento: Santa Lucía y Manatí, presentan escasos recursos y limitaciones, especialmente en lo que compete al acceso a internet y nuevas tecnologías. En consecuencia, esta falta de acceso a medios virtuales a afectado la calidad de la enseñanza en dichas zonas, puesto que los estudiantes muchas veces no tienen manera de conectarse a las clases o las instrucciones y guías que les brinda la institución educativa demandan una explicación y acompañamiento de los profesores y padres de los estudiantes.

Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) el primer caso de coronavirus fue notificado en diciembre de 2019. Sin embargo, en la actualidad (1 de diciembre de 2020) siguen muchas restricciones y cuidados con el fin de mitigar y evitar la propagación del virus. De hecho, a diario se registran más de nueve mil nuevos casos de contagios. Debido a esto, muchas instituciones han cerrado sus puertas y han decidido continuar con las actividades remotas, así como otras han suspendido actividades hasta nueva orden.

El presente proyecto de intervención social nace en el marco del trabajo que viene haciendo la Universidad del Norte desde su trabajo de extensión social, conocida como Uninorte social, en los último cinco años en los municipios de Manatí y Santa Lucía del departamento del Atlántico. El trabajo de la universidad ha girado en torno al desarrollo sostenible de las comunidades. Durante la pandemia, el problema del acceso a la educación básica se volvió aún más difícil en municipios principalmente rurales debido a la falta de conectividad en dichas zonas. Por ello, en el último año los esfuerzos de Uninorte social se han centrado en apoyar los procesos educativos de ambos municipios. De ahí surge la importancia del presente proyecto de intervención social en el que participa Mangata estudio. Ahora bien, el problema central a resolver recae en que, a pesar de los esfuerzos de los docentes por crear guías para darle continuidad al proceso de aprendizaje, los estudiantes aún presentan dificultades para entender las temáticas sin tener al docente cerca para explicar y resolver sus dudas.

A lo largo del presente trabajo se aplicaron distintas herramientas que permitieron la identificación de varias problemáticas que surgen en los entornos de aprendizaje en tiempos de pandemia. A partir del análisis de dichas prácticas, se pudo detectar un factor que se toma como propio, ya que afecta directamente al estudiante, esto es, la existencia de una incidencia negativa en el poco adecuamiento de espacios de trabajo en los que se hacen actualmente las labores académicas. Estos espacios y sus dinámicas producen distracciones y, por tanto, reducen el entendimiento que puede tener el estudiante sobre las clases y el correcto desarrollo de las actividades de aprendizaje.

En el mes de marzo del año 2020, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) declara el brote de Covid-19 como una pandemia. De inmediato el gobierno nacional toma medidas preventivas con el fin de proteger a la población, entre ellas, se declararon las cuarentenas obligatorias. Por ello, todos los establecimientos tanto comerciales como culturales tuvieron que cerrar sus puertas al público. Entre esos se encontraba la Fundación Botánica y Zoológica de la ciudad de Barranquilla, considerada una de los patrimonios turísticos, educativos y recreativos del departamento del Atlántico y en general de la Costa Norte colombiana.

La industria del turismo es uno de los sectores económicos que ha tenido más desarrollo en los últimos años. Gracias a la estandarización de los precios son más las personas que pueden permitirse experiencias turísticas únicas. Esto permite que exista mayor desplazamiento y, por ende, que la demanda aumente. El aumento de la demanda ha traído consigo no solo la posibilidad de enriquecer el sector turístico, sino que también ha permitido nuevas formas de buscar alojamiento y planificar viajes (Pereiro Pérez, 2011).

La noción del espacio público nace con la concepción de la ciudad moderna, según los espacios públicos son un hecho histórico donde confluyen las diversas formas de organización y convivencia (Samper, 2003). En este sentido, son espacios heterogéneos que surgen como producto de los procesos sociales limitada en el tiempo y el espacio. El concepto de lo público alude además a las formas de interacción comunes. Es por ello que en el espacio público la gente lleva a cabo actividades cotidianas, funcionales y rituales que cohesionan a la comunidad. No obstante, la definición dada anteriormente, lo público no solo denota un espacio de confluencia armoniosa entre los miembros de una sociedad. Debemos tener en cuenta, en efecto, que en estos espacios es donde se hacen evidentes diversas problemáticas sociales, tales como la exclusión y la segregación social, formas marginales de supervivencia y del habitar cotidiano ¬–el tráfico de drogas, violencia, robo, etc.–¬¬ (Kuri, 2005).

Y, la segunda, ¿cómo es posible incentivar prácticas colaborativas de transformación sobre territorios y sectores que se encuentran totalmente inactivos?

En conjunto con la Fundación Buenamar, se ha ido desarrollando una intervención que hemos denominado Aguamanil. La Fundación Buenamar actualmente se ubica en el Km 1,5 Vía Barranquilla – Ciénaga, Corregimiento de Palermo Municipio de Sitio nuevo, Magdalena. Dicha fundación asiste a las comunidades que habitan alrededor de Palermo y busca aportar a la solución de las profundas inequidades que limitan el desarrollo de la comunidad (Medina, 2018). Con esta premisa siempre presente, buscan igualmente mejorar la calidad de vida de sus vecinos y coadyuvar en una mejor preparación de la siguiente generación mediante programas que apoyan el desarrollo integral de la primera infancia (Grupo Coremar, s.f.) Al igual que en todo el país, la fundación se vio en la necesidad de cerrar sus puertas temporalmente a causa de la crisis ocasionada por el Covid-19 y las medidas adoptadas por el gobierno nacional para prevenir su propagación, por lo que habían dejado de recibir a la población en sus instalaciones.
