THE IMPORTANCE OF VITAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROPERTIES IN DEFINING URBAN REGIONS IN IRAQ
Authors: Hafidh JAWAD Nahla
Published: May 2023

In spite of the efforts exerted in the previous studies in limiting the regions in Iraq, but these studies were specialized in limiting regions that were closer to the traditional geographical divisions , as the standard of harmony is one of the standards used in the regional division, all of them did not exceed the existing administrative divisions acknowledging that the great similarity in the previous suggestions assures the fact of confirming the harmonious geographical, topographical, and social factors, for the methodology used in dividing Iraq into regions, thus it is probable to consider the administrative borders of governorates, as a main component for limiting the urban regions, as an issue which is to be considered, because these governorates vary in their administrative parts, and this is the problem of the study. Thus the hypothesis of the study was based on that the method followed in classifying and planning the urban regions map in Iraq, in the light of what the previous studies had stated, had depended on the standard of the topographic and social harmony, as a result it does not differ from the method which was followed in carrying out the process of classification by depending on the variables represented the properties, of (vital and environmental) properties collections. The aim of the study was concerned with limiting the urban regions in accordance with the characteristics mentioned above, by using one of the quantitative patterns for the purposes of preference, and separation of the regions. By means of adopting the above mentioned methodology, the study applied the standards of the discriminative properties for the regions , which are amounting to (81) region, , and which represent the)vital and environmental (properties, and to divide Iraq into four regions, by using the factorial analysis pattern as one of the quantitative patterns in the analysis then to find a group of the discriminative properties factors which each one of them is distinguished by and the benefit of these factors is clarified in the possibility of comparing the regions with each other, and finally the conclusions which stated the properties of each region, and its similarity with the other regions, which adds the feature of comparison among these factors, as the results of the matrix of the abstracted factors for the collection , the consolidation status and similarity in the matrix of the abstract factors for the collection of the) vital and environmental) properties for the two regions, the middle and the western, which consolidates the status of the urbanization integrity among the suggested regions for planning in Iraq.

Environmental Regulation and Public Environmental Concerns in China: A New Insight from the Difference in Difference Approach
Authors: Ma Xiaoxiao
Published: May 2023

Facing severe air pollution, the Chinese government has introduced bottom-up public participation in environmental policy. The increase in public environmental attention can promote the participation of all people in environmental governance, which is a major guarantee for achieving the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. In this paper, we use city-year panel data and the strategy of difference in difference (DID) to estimate the impact of environmental regulation of "The Blue Sky Defense War" on public environmental concerns (PEC). This environmental regulation reduces PEC for two reasons. First, the policy has greatly improved air quality in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and surrounding areas. When air quality improves, people pay less attention to environmental issues. Second, environmental regulations reduce household income. As incomes fall, people will focus more on economic development than on environmental issues.

Pandemia y voto parlamentario telemático
Authors: García-Escudero Márquez Piedad
Published: May 2023

Partiendo de la concepción del voto telemático como excepción a la presencialidad consustancial a las cámaras parlamentarias, el trabajo examina la evolución que ha experimentado la regulación de esta forma de votación en el Congreso de los Diputados y el Senado y en los parlamentos autonómicos, de cuyos reglamentos siete fueron objeto de reforma en la materia en el año 2020. El análisis de estas reformas, así como de las más recientes normas de desarrollo, revela que algunos avances se han producido para intentar resolver problemas inherentes al voto telemático, derivados fundamentalmente de su carácter previo respecto de la votación presencial. Aun así, pese al uso intensivo y extensivo que se ha hecho del mecanismo durante la pandemia, las lecciones aprendidas –más allá de resolver algunas dificultades técnicas– no se reflejan plenamente en la normativa. Por constituir una excepción a la regla general de la presencialidad parlamentaria, la regulación del voto telemático debe contemplar el mayor número posible de los problemas que suscita su aplicación, y, sin embargo, muchos de los detectados durante la pandemia siguen sin resolver.
La reutilización de recursos tecnológicos en los parlamentos
Authors: Pereira González Manuel
Published: May 2023

Llevar a cabo la transformación digital de los parlamen­tos con éxito requiere sumarse al modelo de comparti­ción y reutilización de recursos tecnológicos entre las administraciones públicas. Se aborda la posibilidad de que las administraciones parlamentarias gocen de autonomía tecnológica total, reflexionando sobre su naturaleza, para concluir que dicha autonomía no es posible en la práctica puesto que existen interdependencias inherentes a la propia concepción de la tecnología. Se propone, por esto, una serie de recomendaciones para prever que un fallo informático pueda afectar a la actividad parlamentaria, con medidas preventivas y el establecimiento de planes alternativos. Señalando la necesidad de compartir tecnología entre administraciones, se presentan los distintos mecanismos que existen para ello, con ejemplos de las diferentes maneras de compartición: código fuente, infraestructuras, servicios, herramientas y datos. Finalmente, se habla de la posible evolución de la tecnología en la Administración parlamentaria gracias, en parte, a la ayuda de tecnologías disruptivas como la inteligencia artificial y sus recientes aplicaciones.

A História da Antropologia no Brasil normalmente assume como marco de sua institucionalização a criação dos primeiros cursos de Ciências Sociais na década de 1930, relegando a um período “pré-científico” os agentes e as instituições que antecedem esse movimento. Em Santa Catarina, apenas na década de 1970, foram criados cursos de ciências sociais, porém já na década de 1950 houve a criação das primeiras cátedras em Antropologia. Nesse artigo, busca-se evidenciar o papel dos padres Alvino Bertholdo Braun e João Alfredo Rohr na formação da Antropologia em Santa Catarina, evidenciando as transformações e as rupturas desse campo na passagem da década de 1950 para a década de 1960. Argumenta-se que o “esquecimento” desses agentes na História da Antropologia local deve-se às transformações no campo, que implicaram maior distanciamento da Igreja Católica em relação às instituições de ensino superior, na crescente profissionalização da Antropologia e no redimensionamento do escopo dessa ciência.
Meaningful Engagement as a Predictor of Psychological Well-Being for Adults With Low Income
Authors: Schmelzer Laura , Raina Ketki D.
Published: May 2023

Importance: The activities that people engage in influence their well-being. Adults with low income have limited resources, which can affect their engagement in meaningful activities. Exploring the connection between meaningful engagement and well-being is an important step in providing occupational justice for this marginalized population.

Objective: To examine whether engagement in meaningful activities uniquely contributes to well-being for adults with low income after controlling for demographic variables.

Design: Cross-sectional exploratory study design.

Setting: Community agencies serving adults with low income, a local library, and a university union hall in northwest Ohio.

Participants: Adults with low income (N = 186).

Outcomes and Measures: Participants completed a demographic questionnaire, the Engagement in Meaningful Activities Survey (EMAS), and the World Health Organization–5 Wellbeing Index (WHO–5). We examined the influence of demographics and EMAS on the WHO–5.

Results: We identified a moderate correlation between the EMAS and WHO–5 (r = .52, p ≤ .05). Linear regression revealed an R2 = .27, F(7, 164) = 8.75, p < .001, with the EMAS and participant attributes as predictor variables. The R2 changed to .02 (p = .85) without the EMAS in the model.

Conclusions and Relevance: Findings support the need for and use of meaningful activities to support well-being and health for adults with low income.

What This Article Adds: Findings build on the evidence supporting the role of engagement in meaningful activities by drawing connections to a well-known and widely used measure of subjective psychological well-being and applying these connections to adults with low income. Occupational therapy practitioners can use measures such as the EMAS to strategically infuse aspects of meaning that promote engagement and foster well-being.
Iron deficiency in sepsis patients based on reticulocyte hemoglobin and hepcidin concentration: a prospective cohort study
Authors: Czempik Piotr F. , Wiórek Agnieszka
Published: May 2023

Introduction

Iron tests are deranged in sepsis; therefore new biomarkers should be used for diagnosis of iron deficiency (ID)/ID anemia (IDA).

Material and methods

Diagnosis of ID/IDA was based on reticulocyte (RET) hemoglobin (Hb) equivalent (RET-He) and Hb concentration, with hepcidin (Hep) determined retrospectively.

Results

The prevalence of ID and IDA was 7% and 47%, respectively. The AUROCs for RETs number and Hep in prediction of ID/IDA were 0.69 and 0.62, respectively.

Conclusions

Approximately half of sepsis patients are iron-deficient. Number of RETs may be a predictor of ID/IDA when RET-He is not available. Hepcidin is a poor IDA predictor.

Coupled mesoscale–microscale modeling of air quality in a polluted city using WRF-LES-Chem
Authors: Wang Yuting , Ma Yong-Feng , Muñoz-Esparza Domingo , Dai Jianing , Li Cathy Wing Yi , Lichtig Pablo , Tsang Roy Chun-Wang , Liu Chun-Ho , Wang Tao , Brasseur Guy Pierre
Published: May 2023

Abstract. To perform realistic high-resolution air quality modeling in a
polluted urban area, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model is
used with an embedded large-eddy simulation (LES) module and online
chemistry. As an illustration, a numerical experiment is conducted in the
megacity of Hong Kong, which is characterized by multi-type inhomogeneous
pollution sources and complex topography. The results from the
multi-resolution simulations at mesoscale and LES scales are evaluated by
comparing them with ozone sounding profiles and surface observations. The
comparisons show that both mesoscale and LES simulations reproduce the
mean concentrations of the chemical species and their diurnal variations at
the background stations well. However, the mesoscale simulations largely
underestimate the NOx concentrations and overestimate O3 at the
roadside stations due to the coarse representation of the traffic emissions.
The LES simulations improve the agreement with the measurements near the
road traffic, and the LES with the highest spatial resolution (33.3 m)
provides the best results. The large-eddy simulations show more detailed
structures in the spatial distributions of chemical species than the
mesoscale simulations, highlighting the capability of LES to resolve
high-resolution photochemical transformations in urban areas. Compared to
the mesoscale model results, the LES simulations show similar evolutions in
the profiles of the chemical species as a function of the boundary layer
development over a diurnal cycle.
Refining data–data and data–model vegetation comparisons using the Earth mover's distance (EMD)

Published: May 2023

Abstract. Comparing temporal and spatial vegetation changes between reconstructions or between reconstructions and model simulations requires carefully selecting an appropriate evaluation metric. A common way of comparing reconstructed and simulated vegetation changes involves measuring the agreement between pollen- or model-derived unary vegetation estimates, such as the biome or plant functional type (PFT) with the highest affinity scores. While this approach based on summarising the vegetation signal into
unary vegetation estimates performs well in general, it overlooks the
details of the underlying vegetation structure. However, this underlying
data structure can influence conclusions since minor variations in pollen
percentages modify which biome or PFT has the highest affinity score (i.e. modify the unary vegetation estimate). To overcome this limitation, we propose using the Earth mover's distance (EMD) to quantify the mismatch between vegetation distributions such as biome or PFT affinity scores. The EMD circumvents the issue of summarising the data into unary biome or PFT estimates by considering the entire range of biome or PFT affinity scores to calculate a distance between the compared entities. In addition, each type of mismatch can be given a specific weight to account for case-specific ecological distances or, said differently, to account for the fact that reconstructing a temperate forest instead of a boreal forest is ecologically more coherent than reconstructing a temperate forest instead of a desert. We also introduce two EMD-based statistical tests that determine (1) if the similarity of two samples is significantly better than a random association given a particular context and (2) if the pairing between two datasets is better than might be expected by chance. To illustrate the potential and the advantages of the EMD as well as the tests in vegetation comparison studies, we reproduce different case studies based on previously published simulated and reconstructed biome changes for Europe and capitalise on the advantages of the EMD to refine the interpretations of past vegetation changes by highlighting that flickering unary estimates, which give an impression of high vegetation instability, can correspond to gradual vegetation changes with low EMD values between contiguous samples (case study 1). We also reproduce data–model comparisons for five specific time slices to identify those that are statistically more robust than a random agreement while accounting for the underlying vegetation structure of each pollen sample (case study 2). The EMD and the statistical tests are included in the paleotools R package (https://github.com/mchevalier2/paleotools, last access: 3 May 2023).

Abstract. Active bromine (e.g., Br2, BrCl, BrO, HOBr) promotes atmospheric ozone destruction and mercury removal. Here we report a previously unidentified participant in active-Br chemistry, cyanogen bromide (BrCN), measured during the NASA Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) mission. BrCN was confined to polar boundary layers, often appearing at concentrations higher than other Br compounds. The chemistry of BrCN determines whether it promotes or inhibits ozone and mercury removal. This dataset provides evidence that much of the BrCN was from atmospheric Br chemistry involving surface reactions with reduced nitrogen compounds. Since gas phase loss processes are known to be relatively slow, surface reactions must also be the major loss processes, with vertical profiles implying a BrCN atmospheric lifetime in the range 1–10 days. Liquid phase reactions of BrCN tend to convert Br to bromide (Br¯) or C-Br bonded organics, constituting a loss of active Br. Thus, accounting for BrCN chemistry is crucial to understanding polar Br cycling.
Utilizing a Multi-Proxy to Model Comparison to Constrain the Season and Regionally Heterogeneous Impacts of the Mt. Samalas 1257 Eruption
Authors: Wainman Laura , Marshall Lauren R. , Schmidt Anja
Published: May 2023

Abstract. The Mt. Samalas eruption, thought to have occurred between 1257 and 1258, ranks as one of the most explosive sulfur-rich eruptions of the Common Era. However, the precise year and season of the eruption remains unconstrained with evidence indicating both summer 1257 and early 1258 as potential eruption dates. Widespread surface cooling and hydroclimate perturbations following the eruption have been invoked as contributing to a host of 13th Century social and economic crises, although regional scale variability in the post-eruption climate response remains uncertain. In this study we run ensemble simulations using the UK Earth System Model (UKSEM1) with a range of eruption scenarios and initial conditions in order to compare our simulations with the most complete globally resolved multi-proxy database for the Mt. Samalas eruption to date, incorporating tree-ring, ice core, lake sediment, and historical records. This allows more-precise constraints to be placed on the year and season of the Mt. Samalas eruption as well as an investigation into the regionally heterogeneous post-eruption climate response. Using a multi-proxy to model comparison, we are able to robustly distinguish between July 1257 and January 1258 eruption scenarios where the July 1257 ensemble simulation achieves considerably better agreement with spatially averaged and regionally resolved proxy surface temperature reconstructions. These reconstructions suggest the onset of significant cooling across Asia and Europe in 1258, and thus support the plausibility of previously inferred historical connections. Model-simulated temperature anomalies also point to severe surface cooling across the Southern Hemisphere with as of yet unexplored historical implications for impacted civilizations. A re-evaluation of the use of ice core sulfate deposition records to constrain eruption season and volcanic stratospheric sulfur injection (VSSI) estimates also highlights current limitations in this approach, with our model simulations revealing distinct differences in the timing and magnitude of the ice sheet deposition between the two seasons. Overall, the multi-proxy to model comparison employed in this study has strong potential in constraining similar uncertainties in eruption source parameters for other historical eruptions where sufficient coincident proxy records are available.

Abstract. Human-induced climate change is increasing the incidence of fire events and associated impacts on livelihood, biodiversity, and nature across the
world. Understanding current and projected fire activity together with its impacts on ecosystems is crucial for evaluating future risks and taking actions to prevent such devastating events. Here we focus on fire weather as a key driver of fire activity. Fire weather products that have a global homogenous distribution in time and space provide many advantages to advance fire science and evaluate future risks. Therefore, in this study we
calculate and provide for the first time the Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) with all available simulations of the 6th phase of the Coupled Model
Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). Furthermore, we expand its regional applicability by combining improvements to the original algorithm for the FWI from several packages. A sensitivity analysis of the default version versus our improved version shows significant differences in the final FWI. With the improved version, we calculate the FWI using average relative humidity in one case and minimum relative humidity in another case. We provide the
data for both cases while recommending the one with minimum relative humidity for studies focused on actual FWI values and the one with average relative humidity for studies requiring larger ensembles. The following four annual indicators, (i) maximum value of the FWI (fwixx), (ii) number of days with extreme fire weather (fwixd), (iii) length of the fire season (fwils), and (iv) seasonal average of the
FWI (fwisa), are made available and are illustrated here. We find that, at a global warming level of 3 ∘C, the mean fire weather would increase on average by at least 66 % in duration and frequency, while associated 1-in-10-year events would approximately triple in duration and increase by at least 31 % in intensity. Ultimately, this new fire weather dataset provides a large ensemble of simulations to
understand the potential impacts of climate change spanning a range of shared socioeconomic narratives with their radiative forcing trajectories
over 1850–2100 at annual and 2.5∘ × 2.5∘ resolutions. The produced full global dataset is a freely available resource at
https://doi.org/10.3929/ethz-b-000583391 (Quilcaille and Batibeniz, 2022) for fire danger studies and beyond, which highlights the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions for
reducing fire impacts.
Assessing predicted cirrus ice properties between two deterministic ice formation parameterizations
Authors: Tully Colin , Neubauer David , Lohmann Ulrike
Published: May 2023

Abstract. Determining the dominant ice nucleation mode in cirrus is still an open research question that impacts the ability to assess the climate impact of these clouds in numerical models. Homogeneous nucleation is generally well understood. More uncertainty surrounds heterogeneous nucleation due to a weaker understanding of the complex physio-chemical properties (e.g., ice nucleation efficiency and atmospheric abundance) of ice nucleating particles (INPs). This hampers efforts to simulate their interactions with cirrus, which is crucial in order to assess the effect these clouds have on the climate system. Kärcher and Marcolli (2021) introduced a new deterministic heterogeneous ice nucleation parameterization based on the differential activated fraction (AF), which describes the number of INPs that activate ice within a specified temperature or ice saturation ratio interval. They argued that this new approach with explicit INP budgeting, which removes INPs from the total population after they nucleate ice, could help to correct a potential overprediction of heterogeneous nucleation within cirrus when budgeting is not considered. We formulated a general circulation model (GCM)-compatible version of the differential AF parameterization for simulating only deposition nucleation within in situ cirrus and compared it to the method currently employed in the ECHAM6.3-HAM2.3 GCM that is based on cumulative AF. This default cumulative AF approach does not use explicit INP budgeting but instead implicitly budgets for INPs that nucleated ice using a differential ice crystal number concentration variable to calculate whether new ice formation should be added to the pre-existing concentration. In a series of box model simulations that were based on the cirrus sub-model from ECHAM, we found that the cumulative approach likely underpredicts heterogeneous nucleation in cirrus, as it does not account for interstitial INPs remaining from the previous GCM time step. However, as the cases that we simulated in the box model were rather extreme, we extended our analysis to compare the differential and cumulative AF approaches in two simulations in ECHAM-HAM. We find that choosing between these two approaches impacts ice nucleation competition within cirrus in our model. However, based on our 5-year simulations, the small and insignificant difference in the top-of-atmosphere radiative balance of 0.02±0.35 Wm−2 means that the overall climate impact is negligible. We argue that while our GCM-compatible differential AF parameterization is closer to first principles, the default approach based on cumulative AF is simpler due to the lack of additional tracers required. Finally, our new approach could be extended to assess the impact of explicit versus implicit INP budgeting on the ice crystal number concentration produced by immersion freezing of mineral dust particles, as this is also an important mechanism in cirrus.
Does topic choice affect high-stakes L2 writing scores?
Authors: Amengual-Pizarro Marian
Published: May 2023

This study sets out to investigate the potential effects of topic choice on test-takers’ L2 writing scores in a high-stakes context. Data were collected from a total of 150 essays that were assessed by three qualified raters who participated as judges in the administration of the high-stakes English Test (ET), included in the Spanish University Admission Examination (SUAE), in July 2020. Although test-takers showed a clear preference for one writing topic choice over the other, results did not reveal statistically significant differences between the average scores awarded to both essay options. Therefore, the data clearly indicate that topic choice does not affect L2 writing quality. Findings also show that choice of topic had little impact on test-takers’ overall performance on the ET. Additionally, no differences in choice patterns were either observed across test-takers’ proficiency levels, which suggests that topic choice may be closely related to test-takers’ characteristics (motivation, interest, relevance, etc.) rather than to the writing prompt itself. Lastly, the data show potential interactions between raters’ characteristics and essay topics which may affect final writing scores.
