Published: December 2022

Our cellular genome is susceptible to cytotoxic lesions which include single strand breaks and double strand breaks among other lesions. Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein was one of the first DNA damage sensor proteins to be discovered as being involved in DNA repair and as well as in telomere maintenance. Telomeres help maintain the stability of our chromosomes by protecting the ends from degradation. Cells from ataxia telangiectasia (AT) patients lack ATM and accumulate chromosomal alterations. AT patients display heightened susceptibility to cancer. In this study, cells from AT patients (called as AT-/- and AT+/- cells) were characterized for genome stability status and it was observed that AT-/- cells show considerable telomere attrition. Furthermore, DNA damage and genomic instability were compared between normal (AT+/+ cells) and AT-/- cells exhibiting increased frequencies of spontaneous DNA damage and genomic instability markers. Both AT-/- and AT+/- cells were sensitive to sodium arsenite (1.5 and 3.0 μg/ml) and ionizing radiation-induced (2 Gy, gamma rays) oxidative stress. Interestingly, telomeric fragments were detected in the comet tails as revealed by comet-fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis, suggestive of telomeric instability in AT-/- cells upon exposure to sodium arsenite or radiation. Besides, there was an increase in the number of chromosome alterations in AT-/- cells following arsenite treatment or irradiation. In addition, complex chromosome aberrations were detected by multicolor fluorescence in situ hybridization in AT-/- cells in comparison to AT+/- and normal cells. Telomere attrition and chromosome alterations were detected even at lower doses of sodium arsenite. Peptide nucleic acid – FISH analysis revealed defective chromosome segregation in cells lacking ATM proteins. The data obtained in this study substantiates the role of ATM in telomere stability under oxidative stress.

Published: December 2022

O trabalho presente tem como um objetivo geral a investigação das propriedades físicas e mecânicas do concreto convencional com substituição metacaulim e adição de fibra de bambu. O uso do bambu pela humanidade é feito desde os primórdios sendo utilizado em diversas ocasiões, desde uso alimentício até o uso de peças estruturais para construções de moradias, e sua adição no concreto convencional torna-se um grande atrativo para pesquisadores e engenheiros. Apesar dos estudos do implemento de metacaulim no concreto serem hodiernos, em relação ao implemento de outros materiais minerais, seu uso como material pozolânico antecede o uso de cimento, atualmente com o desenvolvimento da humanidade, as construções vêm crescendo a cada dia e com características de maior porte, assim, o consumo de cimento cresce rigorosamente e a produção de uma tonelada de cimento é gerada em torno de 0,8 toneladas de CO2 na atmosfera. Nos últimos anos os houve um grande esforço na área de caracterização e desenvolvimento para oferecer materiais mais resistentes e duráveis no campo da engenharia, várias razões têm motivado a procura por materiais, de origem pozolânica, para a substituição parcial do cimento Portland na produção de concreto e o metacaulim representa uma solução economicamente viável para a substituição parcial ou total do cimento na confecção de concreto. Os materiais utilizados para confecção do concreto foram caracterizados para elaboração dos traços pelo método ABCP-ACI.  Os corpos de prova foram confeccionados e ensaiados com substituição parcial de cimento por metacaulim e adição de bambu e os resultados mostraram uma queda significativa nas resistências mecânicas do concreto.

Published: December 2022

A Educação Ambiental (EA) concerne um espaço de construção de valores, conceitos, habilidades e atitudes na busca de uma nova ética da relação sociedade-natureza. Da mesma maneira, a Teoria da Ecologia Social visa apresentar e analisar os problemas ecológicos advindos, profundamente, dos problemas sociais. Este trabalho buscou examinar, catalogar e evidenciar, utilizando a metodologia do Estado da Arte, a produção científica de teses e dissertações, existente no Brasil, entre Educação Ambiental e Ecologia Social no período de 2011 a 2020. Foram encontrados apenas dois estudos no âmbito da investigação. Ressalta-se a importância da promoção do diálogo e envolvimento das temáticas, em virtude de ampliar teórica e conceitualmente o arcabouço científico nacional e de amplificar a necessidade do potencial transformador na relação sociedade-natureza que os dois temas convergem.
sentidos da palavra participação em uma produção acadêmica do banco Earte
Authors: Moreira Carla Andrea , Louro Ferreira Silva Rosana
Published: December 2022

Este estudo teve como proposta compreender como o termo participação se configura em uma dissertação de Educação Ambiental, tendo como base de busca a plataforma digital EArte entre os anos de 1981 a 2016. O referencial teórico metodológico concebido para reflexões sobre as disputas de sentido do termo participação foi a teoria do enunciado proposta pelo Círculo de Bakhtin e a concepção crítica de Educação Ambiental. A partir da análise de uma dissertação, foi possível localizar reproduções das relações de poder e refletir sobre como opera a ideologia dominante na manutenção das estruturas hierárquicas legitimadas nos enunciados, em contraposição aos pressupostos da concepção crítica da Educação Ambiental. A Educação Ambiental deve assumir o papel de reconstrução de discursos, ao evidenciar a luta de classes invisibilizada pelas ideologias da classe dominante.

Do impulsivity and alexithymia predict aggressiveness in institutionalized older adults?
Authors: Espírito-Santo Helena , Abreu Paraíso Ferreira Luís André , Testa Vicente Henrique Manuel , Vieira Antunes da Cunha Marina Isabel , Gonçalves Grasina Ana Alexandra , Daniel Fernanda , Lemos Laura
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Alexithymia and impulsivity are related and predict aggressiveness in younger adults, especially in forensic contexts. However, little is known about this relationship in older adults,especially in geriatric institutionalized settings, where aggressiveness presents a high prevalence. Thus, we aimed to analyze the impact of impulsivity and alexithymia in institutionalized older adults’ aggressiveness after examining the relationships between these variables. Relevant variables were controlled for in these relations.Methods: Ninety-seven institutionalized participants (60–94 years, 70.1% women, 59.8% nursing homes’ residents) were assessed with the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire-SF, TorontoAlexithymia Scale-20, and Barratt’s Impulsiveness Scale-15.Results: The self-reported level of aggressiveness was low in our sample. Aggressiveness correlated with and was predicted by alexithymia (R2=17.6%; β=0.24, p<.05) and impulsiveness (R2=17.6%; β=0.34, p<.01).Conclusion: Despite the low levels of aggressiveness (potentially explained by levels of medication, more supervision, and more frailty), our findings with institutionalized older adults demonstrate the relevance of alexithymia and impulsiveness for understanding aggressiveness in older adults, adding to previous studies with other types of populations. We provide directions for psychotherapeuticstrategies.
THE EUROPEAN MONETARY INTEGRATION TRAP: INCOMPLETE SOVEREIGNTY AND THE STATE-MIMICKING METHOD
Authors: CABRAL Nazaré da Costa
Published: December 2022

The author identifies the two main (external and internal) dimensions of incomplete sovereignty in the EMU and the respective caveats affecting the scope of the single monetary policy, here described as a ‘monetary policy integration trap’. The author details the main implications caused by this curtailed sovereignty both in its external and internal dimensions – e.g. on the one hand, the polarisation of external positions and, on the other hand, the effects of limited European fiscal/budgetary sovereignty and the atypical interaction between the latter and the single monetary policy. Finally, the way the E(M)U has in recent years addressed this integration trap is analysed, making use of a heterodox method here labelled as the ‘State-mimicking’ method. The main conclusion is that such a method is the possible yet imperfect policy solution to bypass the monetary policy integration trap, given the E(M)U’s ontological ambiguities - a quasi-State afraid to become one.

Published: December 2022

In vitro culture has the greatest commercial value in the extremely quick creation of clonal plants compared to conventional techniques of propagation. It has also proven to be of tremendous practical utility as assistance to the development and maintenance of disease-free planting material, germplasm conservation, and supplements to the regular methods of plant progress, such as plant genetic engineering. The discovery and implementation of current tissue culture techniques are thought to be paving the way for a second green revolution. Here, the standardization of techniques for the in vitro clonal propagation of fruit crops is highlighted. In addition, we summarize the effects of several surface sterilizing agents, plant growth regulators (PGRs), and anti-phenolic chemicals on culture establishment, shoot proliferation, in vitro rooting, hardening and economics of in vitro generation of true-to-type plants.

Work Migrants: Some Positive Implications for the Enhancement of the Self
Authors: Keini Noga Levine , Helper Amit
Published: December 2022

The self is the core of the personality and the more it becomes well established the more it will generate a sense of heightened self-esteem. In this article we will suggest that the self is a complex and multi-faceted organization. This is particularly relevant to the sphere and experience of work migrants in their work migration. Their experience is such that they often find themselves in strange and unfamiliar circumstances that are frequently lonely and anxiety-inducing. In this article we will focus on and explore the multi-faceted self, based on the findings of in-depth interviews of 28 work migrants who came to Israel from India, Nepal and the Philippines. We will examine the varied states of self that evolved from the complex experiences of work migration. This conceptualization is drawn from object relations theories and those of relational theorists regarding the self.
Stéphane de Byzance. Les Ethniques comme source historique: l’exemple de l’Europe occidentale - Annexes
Authors: Bouiron Marc
Published: December 2022

Le lexique géographique du grammairien byzantin Stéphane de Byzance, les  Ethniques, est une oeuvre à l’origine monumentale. Ce lexique contenait  de nombreuses mentions d’auteurs disparus, se rapportant à des toponymes du  monde antique connu des Grecs et des Romains. À l’intérieur de ce lexique, nous  avons choisi d’étudier plus spécialement ceux situés en Europe occidentale  (péninsule ibérique, Gaule, Germanie et Bretagne antiques), en lien avec les  sites archéologiques connus s’y rapportant. L’ouvrage ayant été abrégé à  plusieurs reprises au cours du Moyen Âge, la confrontation de l’ensemble des  notices a permis de proposer de nouvelles attributions d’auteurs antiques, leur  nom et leur citation ayant très souvent disparu des manuscrits conservés. Par  ailleurs l’analyse précise de la transmission de l’oeuvre apporte un éclairage  nouveau sur les moments où ce grammairien a été lu et utilisé, du VIe s. jusqu’à  sa redécouverte à la fin du XVe s. La structure même du lexique permet de  revenir sur la lexicographie antique et médiévale, et d’envisager les apports à  la fois des grammairiens et des auteurs antiques (pour la plupart géographes et  historiens) qui étaient cités. Enfin, le cadre géographique choisi permet  d’explorer les autres textes antiques ainsi que les données archéologiques  depuis l’époque grecque archaïque jusqu’à la fin de l’Empire romain. Nous avons  inclus dans ce travail une analyse et une traduction de l’Ora maritima  d’Aviénus, afin de compléter l’étude de la péninsule ibérique et du Midi de  la Gaule.

Chemical strategies for sustainable medical laboratories
Authors: Ozben Tomris , Fragão-Marques Mariana
Published: December 2022

Chemicals are essential components of our daily lives, for the well-being, high living standards and comfort of modern society. They are used in many sectors, including health. However, some chemicals have hazardous properties which can harm the environment and human health. Chemical pollution is significantly contributing to the current global problem of climate change and loss of biodiversity There is an increase in health problems that can be partially explained by the use of chemicals. Some man-made chemicals are found in the most remote places in the environment, but also in our bodies. Chemicals are everywhere. Chemicals strategy for sustainability towards a toxic-free environment will ensure better protection of human health and the environment from hazardous chemicals, boost innovation for safe and sustainable chemicals and enable the transition to chemicals that are safe and sustainable by design. It is a first step towards the Zero pollution ambition for a toxic-free environment announced in the European Green Deal. The strategy proposes comprehensive chemical legislations for the transformation of industry with the aim of attracting investment into safe and sustainable products and production methods. Clinical laboratories must choose safer, more sustainable alternatives to hazardous chemicals, address sustainability issues, and implement official guidelines on how to reduce their carbon footprint.

Tocqueville’s America
Authors: Birzer Bradley J.
Published: December 2022

On the evening of November 5, 1831, a young Frenchman by the name of Alexis de Tocqueville met the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence, Charles Carroll of Carrollton. Just a little over a year after their meeting, Carroll, age 95, would pass away to much acclaim from the young republic. He would be memorialized as a great man in Israel and as the last of the Romans. That he would be remembered as both a Hebrew prophet and a Republican demigod would not shock the young Frenchman. Indeed, Carroll impressed Tocqueville so much that he lamented that “this race of men is disappearing now after having provided America with her greatest spirits.” With the passing of the revolutionary generation, Tocqueville continued, “the tradition of cultivated manners is lost; the people is becoming enlightened, attainments spread, and a middling ability becomes common. The striking talents, the great characters, are rare. Society,” he thought, “is less brilliant and more prosperous.” Whereas Europe had theorized about such great men in the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, America had actually produced a genius generation. Carroll was the last remnant. Carroll reminisced proudly about his days in the American Revolution, his own thoughts on independence, and his respect for the English. Tocqueville, it seems, listened with rapt attention.
Effective physical protection system design and implementation at a radiological facility: an integrated and risk management approach
Authors: Ansah Michael Nii Sanka , Stepanov Boris Pavlovich , Amoah Paul Attah , Agyekum Ephraim Bonah
Published: December 2022

Lives are threatened whenever there is an act of theft or destruction against a nuclear and radiological facility thus, physical protection systems are effectively employed to prevent or mitigate loss of valuable assets. Health facilities that provide radiotherapy services have in their facility a temporary storage unit where disused radioactive sources 60Co, 137Cs and 192Ir are kept and this raises concerns for effective physical protection. An integrated physical protection System was considered to consolidate of all sub systems, sensors and elements related to protection system for an effectively secured environment at a radiological facility. Sequence adversary diagram (ASD) was developed to depict the paths that enemies can take to achieve sabotage or stealing objectives and analyze flews in the paths. The approach to this security system effectiveness focuses on using probabilistic statistical methods for risk evaluation considering detection, delays and response. This paper considers the basic and effective elements required for physical protection system for a radiological center and makes risk evaluation as an approach of security system effectiveness which can serve as fundamental guiding principle for decision makers in the establishment of an effective physical protection for a radiological center.
Approximity of asymmetric metric spaces
Authors: Ghosal Sanjoy , Mandal Sourav , Banerjee Mandobi
Published: December 2022

In this present work, we perceive the ideas of rough weighted statistical limit set as well as rough weighted statistical cluster points set and originate these conceptions into asymmetric metric spaces. On this context we frame out several results which substantially intensify these perceptions. While explicating such notions in terms of their asymmetric concepts, this generalization despite unfollows some previous results rather generates new characteristics. Also, we will adorn a sufficient condition using rough weighted statistical convergence which converts asymmetric metric spaces to approximate metric spaces.

Authors: Eghwerido Joseph Thomas , Nzei Lawrence Chukwudumebi , Omotoye Adebola Evelyn , Agu Friday Ikechukwu
Published: December 2022

This study introduces a parsimonious and tractable generator for continuous distribution called the Teissier-G family of distributions for continuous random variables and examines the distributions belonging to this family as the sub-models. Some general statistical characteristics and sub-models of the new generator were examined and studied. Similarly, we examined the shapes of the sub-models probability density function (pdf) and hazard rate function were investigated. The parameter of the proposed model was obtained in a closed form by maximum likelihood. In addition to the numerical real life applications, Monte Carlo simulation was performed to examine the flexibility of the introduced models. The models provide good fits in all the cases. The results show great improvement compared to existing models.

An algebraic study of the logic S5’(BL)
Authors: Wang Juntao , He Xiaoli , Wang Mei
Published: December 2022

P. Hájek introduced an S5-like modal fuzzy logic S5(BL) and showed that is equivalent to the monadic basic predicate logic mBL∀
. Inspired by the above important results, D. Castaño et al. introduced monadic BL-algebras and their corresponding propositional logic S5’(BL), which is a simplified set of axioms of S5(BL). In this paper, we review the algebraic semantics of S5’(BL) and obtain some new results regarding to monadic BL-algebras. First we recall that S5’(BL) is completeness with respect to the variety 𝕄𝔹𝕃 of monadic BL-algebras and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the logic S5’(BL) to be semilinear. Then we study some further algebraic properties of monadic BL-algebras and discuss the relationship between monadic MV-algebras and monadic BL-algebras. Finally we give some characterizations of representable, simple, semisimple and directly indecomposable monadic BL-algebras, which are important members of the variety 𝕄𝔹𝕃. These results also constitute a crucial first step for providing an equivalent algebraic foundation for mBL∀

A general matrix series inversion pair and associated polynomials
Authors: Sanjhira Reshma R. , Dave B. I.
Published: December 2022

In the present work, a pair of general inverse matrix series relations is established, and thereby a general class of matrix polynomials is introduced. This class generalizes the extended Jacobi polynomials and their particular cases such as the polynomials of Brafman, Jacobi, Chebyshev, and Legendre. It is further shown that this pair also gives rise to the matrix forms of the Wilson polynomials and the Racah polynomials. For these polynomials, the generating matrix function relations as well as the matrix summation formulas are deduced from their respective inverse pairs. Certain inverse pairs belonging to the Gould classes and the Legendre-Chebyshev classes due to John Riordan [An Introduction to Combinatorial Identities, Wiley, 1968] are also extended to matrix forms.
On a generalized Lamé-Navier system in ℝ3
Authors: Santiesteban Daniel Alfonso , Blaya Ricardo Abreu , Alejandre Martín Patricio Árciga
Published: December 2022

This paper is devoted to a fundamental system of equations in Linear Elasticity Theory: the famous Lamé-Navier system. The Clifford algebra language allows us to rewrite this system in terms of the Euclidean Dirac operator, which at the same time suggests a very natural generalization involving the so-called structural sets. We are interested in finding some structures in the solutions of these generalized Lamé-Navier systems. Using MATLAB we also implement algorithms to compute with such partial differential operators as well as to verify some theoretical results obtained in the paper.

A bivariate extension of the Omega distribution for two-dimensional proportional data
Authors: Özbilen Ömer , Genç Alі İ.
Published: December 2022

When data generating mechanism generates two correlated data sets both defined on the unit interval, a bivariate probabilistic distribution defined on the unit square is needed for modelling the data. For this purpose, we give a Marshall-Olkin type bivariate extension of an omega distribution in this paper. This is in fact a bivariate unit-exponentiated-half-logistic distribution. We study its mathematical properties in detail. The distribution contains neither an exponential term nor any special function which complicates the computations. Maximum likelihood estimation method and its large sample inference are considered for model parameters. Alternatively, we also propose an expectation- maximization algorithm to compute the estimates. To see the performances of the proposed estimators and validate the theoretical results obtained for estimation, we present the results of a simulation study. Data fitting demonstrations show its applicability in modelling random proportions.
Microwave heating rate and dielectric properties of some agricultural wastes
Authors: Alias Norulaina , Ahmad Zaini Muhammad Abbas , Kamaruddin Mohd Johari
Published: December 2022

Interaction between the microwave heating rate and dielectric properties of agricultural wastes is important in identifying suitable microwave operating conditions. This work focuses on the interaction between microwave heating rate (power intensity) and dielectric properties of selected agricultural wastes, namely castor shell, empty fruit bunch and palm kernel shell. Heating rate was recorded every 30 s for 10 min in a 2.45 GHz microwave at power intensities of 100, 300, 450, 600, 700 and 800 W. All materials tested display an increase in heating rate with increasing power intensity. Castor shell and empty fruit bunch at 800 W, and palm kernel shell at 600 W exhibit high heating rates of 0.134, 0.165, 0.247 °C/s, respectively. For dielectric properties, palm kernel shell series shows a high value of loss tangent compared to the other counterparts, indicating its effectiveness to be heated via microwave.
Multiple Island Temporalities
Authors: Oroz Tomislav
Published: December 2022

This paper seeks to explore the notion of “island time” as a metaphor for addressing the multiple island temporalities emerging in the community of Sali, the biggest settlement on the southern shore of Dugi otok. In general, temporalities are conceived as the mode and the rhythm of being, entangled within the thick web of social, cultural, spatial, economic, gendered, and ideological transformations. The concept of “multiple temporalities”, inspired by the time studies and the anthropology of thime theoretical framework, points to the processes of diverse temporal frames and rhythms overlapping, intertwining, and coexisting. The focus of this paper is on the emergence of linčarnica, a triangular slope in the port of Sali. Based on ethnographic research, the paper will address the problems involved in the social and cultural creation of “island time”, popularly known as time moving at a slower pace. By problematising the concept of temporality at the crossroads of Mediterranean studies, island studies, time studies, and Balkan studies, the paper will address questions of specific, island-triggered, and socially performed atmospheric “island time” rebranded for the purpose of tourism and imagined within the specific cultural and social milieu of Dalmatia.

In Istanbul, a city that is undeniably shaped by bodies of water, boats constitute ethnographic sites to observe the multiple processes of community-making. By looking at the time travelled on boats en route to the famous Prince’s Islands Archipelago located off the city proper, this article demonstrates how different understandings of time and temporality among the permanent (both winter- and summer-time) and the temporary (summer-time only) residents of the islands both define and inform particular relationships to the islands. For instance, to what extent everyday practices of accommodating time – such as waiting for boats and anticipation of delays – reflect different ways of belonging to the islands? In relation to the very specific demographic compositions and public imaginations about these islands as a non-Turkish/Muslim space populated by Jews, Greeks and Armenians, this article necessarily investigates how accessibility to urban mobility plays out in the (un)making of national unity. In doing so, it follows a specific approach to understanding noise, sound and hearing as ethnographic data, and tackles the ways through which non-Muslim difference and diversity are expressed (and/or similarly silenced) in the city. This is how the article provides an ethnographically thick description of the “stigmatization” of these islands in Turkish national and public imagery by way of focusing on the tangible aspects of (spending) time which is often sensed as discriminatory by the islanders.
Temporality, Development and Decay in the Whitsundays (Queensland, Australia)
Authors: Hayward Philip
Published: December 2022

The Whitsundays comprises an archipelago of 74 islands and an adjacent coastal strip located in the north-east corner of the Australian state of Queensland. The region has been occupied for (at least) 9000 years, initially (for 98.5% of that duration) by Indigenous Australians. In the early 1900s European settlers arrived and rapidly depleted, dispossessed and displaced the local population and introduced tourism as a major local industry. These developments occurred in synchrony with (and contributed to the ascension of) the Anthropocene. Any overview of human inhabitation of the region, and of related senses of history and temporality, thereby has to acknowledge two distinct moments, one of a major duration and the other, the briefest contemporary flicker. This article attempts to explore patterns of contrast and similarity across these two very different time scales and the populations involved and to consider how the contemporary epoch reflects humans’ role in shaping the (rapidly changing) environment. Temporality is thereby a key concern, and the article explores various notions of time and of cyclicity, including those concerning patterns of climatic development and of human responses to these. The research informing the paper also has a temporal dimension, having occurred over a thirty-year period during which many changes have occurred in the region and its weather patterns. The speeds of development and decay observed in some areas and the relative stasis of others provide key motifs for the discussions that follow.
O nekim aspektima ženske čudovišnosti u predajama
Authors: Polgar Nataša
Published: December 2022

Za razliku od, primjerice, Michela Foucaulta, koji čudovišta i čudovišno razmatra kao prazne kategorije koje se neprestano ispunjavaju novim značenjima i dobivaju nove oblike (Foucault 1999 [1974/1975]; 2002 [1966]), u tekstu se, oslanjanjem na psihoanalitičku kritiku, pokušava razabrati koja su čudovišta kontinuirano prisutna u usmenoj tradiciji, usmenoj književnosti, a posebno u predajama te koje su im funkcije, odnosno zašto se opiru izmjenama ili potiskivanju te zašto je to čudovišno u predajama najčešće kodirano kao žensko.
Projected values of thermal and precipitation climate indices for the broader Carpathian region based on EURO-CORDEX simulations
Authors: Skarbit Nóra , Unger János , Gál Tamás
Published: December 2022

Since our climate is in a rapid changing phase, it is crucial to get information about the regional patterns of basic climatic parameters and indices. The EURO-CORDEX project provides high quality regional climate model outputs, but these raw datasets are not convenient for the application in wider geoscience studies. According to the authors’ knowledge, there is a lack in published spatial information about basic climate parameters and indices in Central-Europe and especially in the broader Carpathian region therefore the basic aim of this study to fill this gap. The study presents the future trends in daily air temperature and precipitation and various climatic indices in the broader Carpathian Basin region during the 21st century. The indices are calculated using multi-model average temperature and precipitation data from EURO-CORDEX model simulations for the future time periods (2021–2050, 2071–2100) and emission scenarios (RCP4.5, RCP8.5). The indices present the future trends of the heat load, energy demand as well as extreme precipitation and drought characteristics. Based on the results the temperature increase is obvious and the heat load and energy demand quantifying indices follow the temperature trend. However, the trend is difficult to evaluate in case of precipitation. The changes in the precipitation and the related indices can be considered small and appear within the regions. The future changes are the most considerable in the Carpathian Basin, but the entire examined region faces crucial changes in the following decades.
Palmer-type soil modelling for evapotranspiration in different climatic regions of Kenya

Reference evapotranspiration (ET0) and real evapotranspiration (ET) are vital components in hydrological processes and climate-related studies. Understanding their variability in estimation is equally crucial for micro-meteorology and agricultural planning processes. The primary goal of this study was to analyze and compare estimates of (ET0) and (ET) from two different climatic regions of Kenya using long-term quality controlled synoptic station datasets from 2000 to 2009 with 3-hour time resolution. One weather station (Voi, 63793) was sought from lowlands with an elevation of 579 m and characterized by tropical savannah climate while the other (Kitale, 63661) was sought from Kenya highlands with humid conditions and elevation of 1850 m above sea level. Reference evapotranspiration was calculated based on the FAO 56 standard methodology of a daily basis. One dimension Palmer-type soil model was used for estimating of real evapotranspiration using the wilting point, field capacity, and soil saturation point for each station at 1 m deep soil layer. The ratio of real and reference evapotranspiration dependent on the soil moisture stress linearly. Calculations of estimated evapotranspiration were made on daily and monthly basis. Applications of the site-specific crop coefficients (KC) were also used. The result indicated that the differences among daily and monthly scale calculations of evapotranspiration (ET) were small without and with an application of crop coefficients (ETKc). This was due to high temperatures, global radiation, and also high soil moisture stress due to inadequate precipitation experienced in the tropics where Kenya lies. Results from Voi showed that mean monthly ET0 ranged from 148.3±11.6 mm in November to 175.3±10.8 mm in March while ET was from 8.0±4.5 mm in September to 105.8±50.3 mm in January. From Kitale, ET0 ranged from 121.5±8.5 mm/month in June to 157.1±8.5 mm/month in March while ET ranged from 41.7±32.6 mm/month in March to 126.6±12.2 mm/month in September. This was due to variability in temperature and precipitation between the two climatic regions. The study concludes that ET0 and calculated evapotranspiration variability among the years on a monthly scale is slightly higher in arid and semi-arid climate regions than in humid regions. The study is important in strategizing viable means to enhance optimal crop water use and reduce ET losses estimates for optimal agricultural yields and production maximization in Kenya.
Transformations of place, memory and identity through urban place names in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia
Authors: Bitušíková Alexandra
Published: December 2022

The paper looks at the renaming of streets as a significant aspect of post-socialist change using an example of the city of Banská Bystrica, Slovakia. It discusses politics, processes and practices of (de-re)commemoration in street names, which reflect transformations of memory (remembering and forgetting), identity, heritage, power and resilience related to public space in a post-socialist city. Changing street names creates new connections between the past and the present and reflects political power struggles for control over contested space between various groups that tend to privatise their own history, heritage, memory, identity, places and symbols. The case of Banská Bystrica demonstrates strategies of the street renaming based on the decommunisation of names (done by restoration of the names from older periods or by introducing non-commemorative names), and on commemoration of names based primarily on local (or regional/national) heritage, events and personalities that might become areas of contested heritage.
Bien faire et se tenir en joie : la bienveillance, les motivations et les comportements des travailleurs à la lumière de la théorie de l’autodétermination
Authors: Gradito Dubord Marc Antoine , Martin Ludivine , Forest Jacques
Published: December 2022

Cet article présente le possible besoin de bienveillance en s'intéressant à ses implications dans le contexte du travail. Nous proposons que sa satisfaction favorise la motivation autonome, le bien-être et les comportements prosociaux, tandis que sa frustration augmente la détresse psychologique, la motivation contrôlée et les comportements déviants. Basés sur un devis de recherche transversale, les résultats montrent que la satisfaction de la bienveillance a un impact significatif sur le bien-être, ainsi que sur la motivation autonome et les comportements prosociaux au travail. Cependant, les effets de la frustration de la bienveillance sur la détresse, ainsi que sur la motivation contrôlée et la déviance, ne sont pas significatifs.
La fidélisation de la main-d’œuvre en contexte de forte incertitude : le rôle du leadership des gestionnaires de proximité

Published: December 2022

Depuis quelques années, la rareté de la main-d’œuvre préoccupe les gestionnaires et dirigeants d’entreprises. L’actuelle pandémie de la Covid-19, qui chamboule le déroulement régulier des activités organisationnelles, a exacerbé ces inquiétudes, amplifiant la concurrence entre les entreprises pour acquérir une main-d’œuvre diversifiée et mobile. Dans ce contexte, l’importance du capital humain comme actif stratégique oblige les entreprises à concentrer leurs efforts sur le développement d’actions favorisant une fidélisation accrue des employés. Partant de l’expérience et du vécu de gestionnaires de proximité, cet article s’intéresse aux actions et aux comportements qui ont permis à ces gestionnaires de s’adapter et de répondre aux nouvelles réalités du télétravail pendant les moments forts de la pandémie de Covid-19, tout en assurant le maintien du bien-être et de l’engagement de leurs employés. Cette étude repose sur 18 entrevues semi-dirigées réalisées à l’été 2021 auprès de gestionnaires de proximité amenés à gérer, durant la pandémie, des équipes à distance au sein dans une grande entreprise du secteur bancaire. Nos résultats mettent en lumière le travail et la position privilégiée de ces gestionnaires dans la gestion de cette crise pour soutenir les employés, reconnaître et comprendre leurs attentes et leurs besoins durant cette période marquée par l'incertitude et la gestion à distance. Nos résultats nous amènent également à dégager des constats en termes de pratiques de leadership, considérant qu’encore très peu d’études se sont intéressées au leadership et à son efficacité en temps de crise.
Contrat psychologique, pratiques managériales et bouleversements organisationnels : mieux s’adapter
Authors: Pelletier Caroline , Desmarais Lise , Cadieux Nathalie
Published: December 2022

La pandémie et le manque de main-d’œuvre qui affecte les entreprises et les organisations ne sont pas sans impact sur le milieu de travail. Ces deux conjonctures perturbent l’organisation du travail et l’attribution de tâches aux employés. De la même façon, les bouleversements engendrés par les fusions, défusions et réformes qui surviennent chaque décennie dans le réseau de la santé et des services sociaux du Québec entraînent leurs lots de changements. Chacun d’entre eux amène les gestionnaires, mais aussi les employés, à s’adapter. Au cœur de ces perturbations, le contrat psychologique (CP) se voit mis à l’épreuve alors qu’il émane de la relation d’emploi. Il se voit à risque de rupture alors qu’une telle rupture entraîne des coûts pour une organisation. Il est donc à propos de se demander : les pratiques de gestion peuvent-elles minimiser l’impact des bouleversements organisationnels sur le contrat psychologique? Par le recours à une méthode mixte (mixed method), l’étude présentée ici a permis de constater les effets favorables et défavorables de certaines pratiques de gestion liées à l’organisation du travail et aux pratiques d’attribution de tâches sur le contrat psychologique lors d’un bouleversement organisationnel. Offrant des bases à de nouvelles recherches sur les pratiques de gestion tout comme sur le contrat psychologique, les résultats permettent à des gestionnaires de prendre conscience de leur impact sur le contrat psychologique, et d’identifier des pratiques de gestion de l’organisation du travail et de tâches favorables au contrat psychologique afin d’en tirer profit dans le contexte actuel.
