Authors: BHAKAT CHAMPAK , KUMAR SANJAY , NATH KASHI
Published: October 2023

In order to decide the optimum time of grazing for camels during hot summer months, 10 growing camel calves were divided into 2 equal groups. First group was sent for grazing during 10:00 h to 16:00 h daily and second group allowed for grazing during thermo neutral period. The climatic variables were recorded daily (April 2012 to March 2013). The average daily gain and total body weight gain in calves sent for grazing during relatively cool parts of day (group 2) was significantly higher as compared to group 1 calves sent as per routine farm schedule. The average intake of fodder and water from manger was higher in group 1 calves. The average DMI from manger for group 1 calves was higher as compared to group 2 calves. The comparative biometrics of camel calves in different grazing management practices revealed that body length, heart girth, height at wither, neck length were significantly (P<0.01) higher in group 2 calves as compared to group 1 calves. After 180 days of experimentation, hump circumference vertical and hind leg length were significantly (P<0.05) increased in group 2 as compared to group 1. Analysis of recorded data of climatic parameters revealed that average maximum temperature was higher during June 2012. The values of THI also were higher in monsoon and post monsoon months hence the practice of sending camel calves during relatively comfortable part of hot and hot humid months was successful in getting good growth. The relative humidity was significantly higher during morning as compared to evening period for all months. The THI was significantly lower during morning as compared to evening hours for all months in different climate for whole year. Economic analysis reveals that the cost of feed per kg body weight gain was quite less in group 2 as compared to group 1. So the practice of grazing of camel calves during cool hours of day remain profitable for farmers by looking at the body weight gain and better body conformation in climate change condition.

Published: October 2023

Six different floor spaces, each was allotted for 4 birds in cells: F1A (2,000cm2), F2A (2,200cm2), F3A (2,400cm2), F4A (2,600cm2), F5A (2,800cm2), F6A (3,000cm2). Birds housed in each of cells of floor areas: S1A (2,400cm2) = 4, S2A (4,200cm2) = 6, S3A (5,600cm2) = 8, S4A (7,000cm2) = 10. Each was replicated thrice. Results revealed that effects of pen floor areas were significant on bird's weight of 1482±5.07 g. There were discrepancies in birds' final weights (range: 1218±2.03 to 1482±5.07 g), however, 2800cm2 pen showed nearly uniform birds' weights. Average birds' feed intakes (range: 5541g±11.30 to 5588g±14.06 g) were high in 2,800cm2 and 3,000cm2 with fluctuations recorded in feed conversion ratio in all pens, except cell 2,800cm. Stocking density had significant effect on the bird's meat quality; 2,800cm2 pen of four birds with 700cm2 per bird was hereby recommended for high broiler's performance.

Published: October 2023

The study examined the performance of dairy cooperative societies under Jammu & Kashmir Milk Producers Cooperative Limited (JKMPCL) and disposal pattern of milk among the member farmers. The JKMPCL is one of the organized player to which the dairy farmers are attached and collecting the milk. The primary data were collected from 160 cooperative society members selected by stratified random sampling method. For measurement of performance, secondary data were collected from secretaries of selected cooperative societies. The findings showedthat overall mean performance of societies was 51.83% in Jammu and 44.00% in Kashmir, indicating that societies in Jammu performed better than that in Kashmir. The reasons for the better performance of Dairy cooperative societies in Jammu were better milk price and high productivity of animals. The study further showed that average herd size of milch animals and average household milk production in Jammu was higher compared to Kashmir region. A considerable proportion of member farmers were disposing milk to other agencies besides dairy cooperatives in both regions of J&K. The price offered for milk by different stakeholders varied significantly and thus influenced the members to adopt other agencies for sale of their marketed surplus besides being co-operative society members.

Authors: RAMESH A , KUMANAN K
Published: October 2023

Classical swine fever is an economically important and endemic disease of swine in India. Though vaccination is the best way of controlling the disease, currently available vaccines are not very effective. Cell culture adapted local strains of viral pathogens could be a better choice for large scale vaccine production and better immunity. Two local isolates and one lapinized strain of Classical swine fever virus were adapted to PK-15 cells and assessed for their suitability as a vaccine candidate. The CSFV isolate, CSFV-Ind-TN/Veng-09-020–Vn, with a TCID50 titre of 9.5 after 40 continuous passages was found to give better seroconversion, good protection against virulent CSFV challenge and could be a better candidate vaccine strain.

Published: October 2023

The aim of the present study was to learn more about caprine coccidiosis in semi-arid tropical regions, including transformation techniques for data analysis and variables impacting faecal oocyst count in Barbari and Jamunapari goats. For this investigation, a total of 1422 goat faeces samples from two separate seasons were tested, and 1342 (94.37%) of them were positive for several coccidian species oocysts. A total of 259 animals, including 153 Barbari (77 males and 76 females) and 106 Jamunapari (45 males and 61 females), provided the 777 faecal samples from the autumn season. In contrast, 215 animals, including 110 Barbari (60 males and 50 females) and 105 Jamunapari (52 males and 53 females), provided the 645 faecal samples from the spring season. At 3.5, 6.0, and 7.5 months of age, both breeds had their faeces examined. The geometric mean of oocysts per Gram (OPG) for the Barbari breeds was greater than the Jamunapari breeds at 6.637a±0.03 (662) and 6.521b±0.03 (579), respectively. The Transformed oocysts per gram (LOPG) was also greater in females 6.651a±0.03 (673) than in males. Similar to the age comparison, the 7.5 month older animal showed a greater count of 6.858a±0.04 (851) than the 3.5 and 6.0 month old animals. The five found coccidian oocysts were Eimeria arloingi, Eimeria ninakohlyakimovae, Eimeria hirci, Eimeria caprina, and Eimeria christenseni. The oocysts Eimeria arloingi (39–45%), Eimeria ninakohlyakimovae (25–31%), Eimeria hirci (13-20%), Eimeria christenseni (6–12%), and Eimeria caprina (3–10%) were present in both breeds and seasons of male and females.

Authors: SALIH SHAWNM , MAHMOOD AYAD
Published: October 2023

This investigation aims to determine the effect of olive pomace on growth performance and quality of carcass characteristics of Karadi lambs. Lambs were grouped by initial body weights (29.746±1.49 kg) and randomly distributed into five groups. While one group received commercial concentrates without olive pomace, the second, third, fourth and fifth groups received an experimental diet containing 4, 8, 12 and 16% of olive pomace, respectively. The lambs’ body weight, feed intake and feed conversion ratio were recorded weekly. At 46 kg live body weight, three lambs from each group were slaughtered in order to record carcass and non-carcass characteristics. Lambs fed olive pomace had significantly higher average daily gain and feed conversion ratio than those fed on the control diet. The experimental groups also produced carcass yield mainly due to an increase in carcass weight. Lambs fed 12% olive pomace had significantly higher rib eye area and fat thickness. The wholesale cuts showed that lambs fed olive pomace had significantly higher shoulder and shank percentage and significantly lower loin percentage than those of the lambs fed on the control diet. Most carcass cuts of lambs fed 8% olive pomace recorded significantly higher percentage of lean. Overall, supplementation with olive pomace significantly improved lamb growth and showed its capacity for meat production.

Published: October 2023

The present investigation was aimed at studying the improvement of fermentation and nutritive quality of rice straw-maize silage by the inclusion of different additives. In the experiment, paddy straw and green maize fodder were mixed in ratios of 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100 for silage preparation. These combinations were made in a triplicate and added with no additive (C), 2% urea (T1), 1% molasses (T2) and a mixture of 2% urea and 1% molasses (T3) in completely randomized design (CRD). The silages were harvested after 45 days and then analyzed for chemical composition, fermentation characteristics and anti-nutritional factors. Results revealed that dry matter (DM), acid detergent fibre (ADF), neutral detergent fibre (NDF), crude fibre (CF), ash and pH increased with an increase in the proportion of paddy straw in all combinations. Addition of 2% urea increased in vitro dry matter digestibility (IVDMD), crude protein (CP) and total gas production (TGP) of paddy straw and maize fodder silage. Urea treatment considerably reduced the oxalate content and increased the tannin content of paddy straw and maize fodder silage. In the present study, silage prepared by combining paddy straw and maize fodder in ratio of 25:75 had good aroma and fermentation characteristics which can be, therefore, utilized for effective silage making.

Early pregnancy diagnosis is vital for economic sustainability of dairy farms and maintaining the reproductive efficiency of the herd. There are many techniques including progesterone assay, pregnancy specific proteins and interferon stimulated genes have been explored for early pregnancy diagnosis but, they are associated with varying level of efficacy. In the present experiment, interferon stimulated gene (Myxovirus resistance gene 2/MX2) expression pattern was used as a potential biomarker for early pregnancy in cattle. The association of MX2 gene expression in relation to progesterone assay was studied to explore its potential use as biomarker of early pregnancy. The plasma progesterone concentration in conceived animals on day 7 (2.26±0.19 ng/ml), 17 (5.42±0.35 ng/ml) and 21(6.38±0.39 ng/ml) was recorded to be significantly higher as compared to respective values in non-conceived animals, i.e. 1.55±0.09 ng/ml, 4.14±0.14 ng/ml and 0.81±0.06 ng/ml. The sudden decrement in plasma progesterone concentration after day 17th discriminates conceived and non-conceived animals. MX2 expression levels were observed to spike in blood due to release of interferon tau (τ) after implantation of embryo. The relative mRNA expression of MX2 gene showed a 9.5 to 28.64-fold higher expression on 17 days post insemination in pregnant animals as compared to non-pregnant animals. Thus, MX2 gene can be used as a reliable biomarker for the early detection of pregnancy.

Published: October 2023

Self-perception of health status is a good indicator because it reflects various aspects of health conditions, care, and use of health services, and has been used as a guiding instrument for health promotion actions in the elderly population. This study aimed to identify the factors associated with positive self-perception of health among the elderly in the Northeast region of Brazil. This is a cross-sectional study with 7,206 elderly (≥ 60 years old) interviewed by the Surveillance System of Risk and Protective Factors for Chronic Diseases by Telephone Survey (VIGITEL) in 2018. Sociodemographic, behavioral and health condition variables were grouped according to a previously defined conceptual hierarchical model to aid in the description of self-perceived health. Poisson regression was used, and prevalence ratios with their respective 95% confidence intervals were estimated. The prevalence of positive self-perception of health was 46.29%. The probability of a better perception of health increased with male gender (PR = 1.25), age between 60 and 64 years (PR = 1.12), high schooling (9 years or more of study - PR = 1.25), possession of health insurance (PR = 1.27), regular consumption of fruits and vegetables (PR = 1.14) and sufficient physical activity during leisure time (PR = 1.26), but decreased with black and brown race (PR = 0.89), presence of diabetes (PR = 0.74) and presence of hypertension (PR = 0.70). The analysis of these factors indicates important aspects for the formulation of specific public policies, in view of health equity, health promotion and disease prevention to improve the quality of life of this population.]

La restricción energética en la Argentina de la era del carbón, 1860-1907
Authors: Caligari Rubén
Published: October 2023

Este trabajo analiza la influencia que la dificultad de acceso a fuentes energéticas competitivas tuvo en el desarrollo de Argentina, en el período de la organización nacional. Era el período del carbón, motor de la revolución industrial y base del dominio global de Inglaterra, mineral del que Argentina carecía, a diferencia de países en otros sentidos análogos, como Australia y Chile, donde la explotación impulsó la industrialización.
Las importaciones de carbón inglés, una carga sobre el balance externo de la economía argentina, se integraron fluidamente al modelo y atenuaron eventuales medidas proteccionistas. Las clases dirigentes no fueron indiferentes al tema y se han identificado iniciativas, públicas y de particulares, tendientes al abastecimiento del recurso, que fracasaron por carencias estructurales y las condiciones geológicas adversas.
Cuando la electricidad se incorporó como factor de transformación de la producción, la dependencia del carbón importado se agravó, porque los núcleos de producción se encontraban alejados de los ríos de montaña, limitando el aporte de la generación hidráulica.  Se estudia también la primera explotación industrial de petróleo en el territorio, que fracasó debido a las limitaciones estructurales características del modelo. A pesar de la visión y de los esfuerzos, Argentina, país de vocación industrialista, atravesó el período como importador de prácticamente la totalidad de la energía que necesitaba.

La actuación del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo frente a las crisis argentinas del siglo XXI
Authors: Ciolli Vanessa
Published: October 2023

El objetivo del texto es comprender los modos en que los bancos multilaterales de desarrollo (BMD) actúan frente a las crisis que atraviesan los países periféricos. Los BMD son instituciones financieras que se proponen contribuir al desarrollo de los países periféricos mediante la asistencia técnica y financiera a un amplio abanico de políticas estatales extra-económicas. Por tal motivo, se considera que en contextos de crisis su operatoria debe tener una función anticíclica. Por otra parte, en momentos de crisis se propicia una articulación entre diversas instituciones financieras internacionales con el fin de brindar paquetes de emergencia. La hipótesis de trabajo consiste en que la actuación de los BMD está guiada por diversas dimensiones yuxtapuestas, cuyo orden de prioridad se reconfigura frente a los distintos tipos de crisis sobre las que se proponen intervenir. Teniendo en cuenta el nexo dialéctico entre las distintas crisis, se sostiene que frente a las crisis de hegemonía se enfatiza su dimensión histórico-estructural mientras que en las crisis de coyuntura predominan las dimensiones geopolíticas e ideológicas. Para su abordaje empírico, el foco de la investigación se sitúa en la operatoria del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo (BID) frente a dos crisis argentinas de carácter diverso durante el siglo XXI: la crisis económica, política y social de 2001 y la crisis financiera y cambiaria de 2018. La metodología de investigación se basa en la elaboración y análisis de una base de datos de las operaciones del BID con el sector público argentino en el marco de sus operaciones globales, y entrevistas a informantes clave.
Desarrollismo en clave de seguridad nacional: industrialización subsidiada en el noreste de Chubut durante la dictadura de la Revolución Argentina (1966-1972)
Authors: Binder Axel
Published: October 2023

Los programas desarrollistas para Patagonia tuvieron un marcado componente estratégico-militar, que combinó el crecimiento de regiones económicamente “atrasadas”, con las pretensiones de seguridad de la “Revolución Argentina”. Para ello procuró descentralizar la actividad industrial de las grandes capitales y alentó el poblamiento del “desierto” patagónico para reafirmar la soberanía nacional. La creación de un Polo de Desarrollo en el Noreste de Chubut transformó la estructura económico-social de la región, y estimuló el desarrollo de nuevos intereses y contradicciones sociales. En este artículo abordaremos algunas implicancias de esa industrialización, en especial la triangulación entre Estado provincial, empresarios y gremios. Esa fue la fuerza social dominante que delineó los ejes principales de la industrialización y ejerció el lobby político nece­sario para conseguir el apoyo de la población local; mientras en paralelo disputaba con otras burguesías regio­nales del país la redistribución de recursos del Estado Nacional que significaban los regímenes de promoción industrial.

Published: October 2023

The basic objective of any forensic examination involving unidentified human remains is to identify the individual(s). The forensic significance of teeth can be attributed to their strong resilience to explosive and thermal stress, as well as the possibly unique personal information that can be gleaned from their analysis. Furthermore, the morphology of teeth varies between (and within) populations and sexes. Anomalies in the teeth are a common component of macroscopic dental morphological differences. The current study assesses the incidence of certain dental abnormalities in Population of Andhrapradesh. This study was carried out using Pretreatment records of 630  patients of Andhra Pradesh, India. The Radiographs were reviewed for Dental Anomalies.The anomaly, number of teeth affected, and the location of Anomaly were recorded. To find correlations between dental abnormalities and gender, a Chi-square test was carried out using SPSS software. Of the 630 patients screened 427 (67.7%) presented with at least one anomaly and 203(32.3%) subjects showed no anomaly. Hypodontia is the most prevalent anomaly(38.25%) followed by Impaction(17.30%) and Rotation (17.14%). Anodontia(0.79%) and Hyperdontia(0.95%) are the least prevalent anomalies. Statistical study revealed that dental abnormalities were independent of sex. The prevalence and impact of dental anomalies in various population groups may provide important information for phylogenic and genetic studies, allowing us to comprehend intra and inter-population variation.
ANTHROPOMORPHIC OF GODS WITH ALLAH ALMIGHTY AND FILMOGRAPHY ON ISLAMOPHOBIA IN THE CINEMATIC WAY OF AMERICA AND INDIA: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Authors: MUHAMMAD ASAD LATIF
Published: October 2023

It is alleged that after the Islamic world froze its influence in this universe, the Jews and Christians started a conspiracy against Islam. Later, the same thinking affected the people of the West and India. So, they also provided hateful material against Muslims through books, articles, and Cinematic Films. In Berlin, 1895 Skladanowsky brothers made their first debut film, and in 1905 Lumiere brothers did not get a good response; they started the parables of prophets and got salutations from the audience. Occasionally, Western and Indian filmmakers moved on to offensive pictorial scenarios of God and anti-Muslims. In this regard, they are producing God in the form of Male/Female in the different aspects of the cinema. Moreover, later Hollywood introduced the Anthropomorphic of Ancient Greek gods, Like Zeus, Thor, and Loki in Cinema. In the era of 1917, Dada sahib Phalke through the Lanka Dahan portrayal, and in the 80s, Ramanand Saghar provided the pictorial series Ramayana and later B.R Chopra Mahabharata. Those who watch these theological movies as entertainment are prohibited (×arÉm) in Islam, while these films violate beliefs. These Cinematic Portraits are shown in every Muslim State on Ram, Hanuman, anti-Muslimism data, etc. This stereotypical behaviour is the major cause of the Muslims as terrorist in the West and being patronizing in Indian society. This research aims to identify the theological effects of religious films on Muslim society. Furthermore, the negative myths created by these films are to be revealed to Muslim civilization. This Research will set out both film industries with the methodology of descriptive cum-critical and analysis of Christian Hindu Thinking and particularly figures out its Prohibitions and suspensions through the Islamic Sharī‘ah.
Application of Elastography in the Diagnosis of Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis (IGM): A Systematic Review
Authors: Hosseini Seyyed Mohammad , Gity Masoumeh , Talebi Boroujeni Parham , Asghari Ahmadabad Mona , Jahanshahi Ali
Published: October 2023

Context: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a benign inflammatory condition of the breasts with an unknown etiology, which can mimic breast cancer on conventional ultrasound. Other imaging modalities, such as mammography and magnetic resonance imaging, cannot efficiently differentiate this condition from malignancies. Elastography is a novel imaging technique used to evaluate tissue elasticity. Objectives: This systematic review aimed to investigate the imaging features of IGM on elastography and also to determine whether this modality is useful for distinguishing IGM from other breast malignancies. Materials and Methods: A comprehensive literature search was conducted across several databases, including Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, Scopus, and Web of Science, in October 2022. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal tool was used for the quality assessment of the studies. Results: After screening 851 articles, seven studies investigating ultrasound elastography were found to meet the inclusion criteria. Regarding the quantitative findings, both the strain ratio and shear wave velocity were observed to be higher in malignant masses as compared to IGM. Additionally, qualitative scoring systems, such as the Tsukuba and Tozaki classifications, assigned higher scores to malignant lesions. Five of the included studies in this review proposed a specific cut-off point for differentiating IGM from malignancies, using either shear wave velocity, strain ratio, or elasticity scores. In four of the studies, these criteria exhibited sensitivity and specificity of approximately 90%. Conclusion: The current findings suggest that ultrasound elastography can serve as a valuable tool for distinguishing IGM from breast malignancies. By potentially reducing the number of unnecessary tissue biopsies, this modality may lead to a more efficient patient evaluation process.

Background: Voiding dysfunction in children involves various urinary symptoms and is often distressing. Tantrums, emotional outbursts typically seen in early childhood, may have an underlying relationship with urinary disorders. Existing research lacks evidence linking these two conditions. Therefore, we conducted the present study. Objectives: We aimed to investigate the potential link between tantrums and voiding dysfunction in children over 4 years old and to analyze the effects of individual tantrum symptoms on voiding dysfunction. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 96 children visiting Amir Kabir Hospital in Arak, Iran. The case group (n = 48) consisted of children with voiding dysfunction, and the control group (n = 48) included healthy children. The existence of tantrums was determined using the Parents' Experience of Temper Tantrums in Children questionnaire. Results: Tantrums were significantly more common in the case group than in the control group (P = 0.004). Only the presence of screaming (P = 0.016) and throwing things (P = 0.022) showed significant associations with voiding dysfunction. Conclusions: This study revealed a significant connection between voiding dysfunction and tantrums in children. Specific tantrum symptoms, such as screaming and throwing things, were found to be associated with voiding dysfunction. The findings emphasize a need for an integrated approach in pediatric care to address both urinary and behavioral aspects.
Convección térmica en un anillo cilíndrico en rotación

En la tesis doctoral Convección térmica en un anillo cilíndrico en rotación se estudian diferentes aspectos de la dinámica lineal y no lineal de un fluido Boussinesqconfinado en un anillo cilíndrico, en rotación alrededor de su eje de simetría y sometido a la acción de un campo gravitatorio y de un gradiente de temperaturadesestabilizador en la dirección radial. Su principal objetivo es analizar la influencia de la rotación, de la geometría cilíndrica y de las condiciones de contorno en la dinámica de un sistema físico que constituye un modelo simple de la convección libre en las capasecuatoriales de las atmósferas planetarias y estelares. En eltrabajo, que se enmarca en el campo de la Simulación Numérica en Dinámica de Fluidos, se utilizan técnicas espectrales para hacer una simulación numérica directade las ecuaciones de Navier-Stokes.El estudio se inicia analizando la estabilidad lineal del estado conductivo imponiendo condiciones de contorno stress-free en las superficies horizontales del anillo.Cuando la rotación es alta, la convección se inicia en forma de columnas de Taylor estacionarias, que son soluciones bidimensionales formadas por estructuras alineadas con el eje del anillo. Para rotaciones bajas, existen dos tipos diferentes de modos convectivos: rollosconvectivos bidimensionales estacionarios y celdastridimensionales con precisión. Este último tipo de solución no se puede encontrar si no se tiene en cuenta la curvatura de la capa. La dinámica cambia cuando seconsideran condiciones de contorno no-slip en las tapas. En el caso de rotaciones bajas, las condiciones de contorno fuerzan que los modos críticos seantridimensionales y se produce un aumento en el número de Rayleigh necesario para que se inicie la convección. A medida que la rotación aumenta, las solucionestridimensionales se alargan progresivamente hasta que se forman columnas de Taylor prácticamente bidimension.

Receivables are working capital that is always rotating, the time for collecting receivables is seen from the turnover of receivables into cash in one year. The profitability of a company can be measured using gross profit margin and return on assets. GPM is the company's ability to make the cost of revenue effective to generate profits in its operational activities. Meanwhile, ROA shows the company's effectiveness in managing all its assets to generate profits in operational activities. The aim of this research is to determine and analyze the effect of accounts receivable turnover on profitability as measured by GPM and ROA. The research object is PT. PDAM Tirtanadi South Tapanuli branch for the period 2006 - 2013. This type of research is associative with data analysis techniques using non-parametric statistical analysis with the help of SPSS 18.0 software. The results of this research show that the receivables turnover variable has a significant influence on gross profit margin. The results of this research are strengthened by the results of hypothesis testing through the Kendall test of 0.01 and the Spearman test of 0.00 which shows the significance of the receivables turnover rate being below 0.05, which means the receivables turnover rate has a significant effect on profitability (GPM). Meanwhile, the research results of the receivable turnover variable do not have a significant effect on return on assets. These results can be seen by the results of hypothesis testing via the Kendall test of 1.00 and the Spearman test of 1.00 which shows the significance of the receivables turnover rate being above 0.05, which means the receivables turnover rate has no significant effect on profitability (ROA).
Book Review: Taxonomies: Practical Approaches to Developing and Managing Vocabularies for Digital Information
Authors: Ricks Julia C.
Published: October 2023

The importance of taxonomies has been visible in recent years, whether it is with organizations that oversee describing communities of people or how to sell on the importance of taxonomies to the stakeholders of a company. There have been conversations within the Library of Congress on whether to change the search terms defining marginalized groups; universities are dealing with similar issues when they are faced with students questioning why a book has been categorized or shelved in a certain way; and if someone is trying to start a business that involves helping people with their travel needs, they need to consider who their targeted audience is, what terms that audience would be using and tailor the business model to suit those needs for prime optimization. These are just some of the examples of how taxonomies can help organizations and it is important to be able to identify and show this potential to colleagues and stakeholders.
ÉVALUATION QUANTITATIVE DE LA SENSIBILITÉ HYDROGÉOMORPHOLOGIQUE DU LIT À MÉANDRES DE LA MENOUA À SANTCHOU (OUEST-CAMEROUN)
Authors: BELINGA ATEBA J. , AKAMBA Gilles Yvans , Jean-Guy DZANA
Published: October 2023

Les ajustements qui se produisent dans les trois dimensions de liberté des lits fluviaux sont consécutifs aux perturbations survenues dans les variables de contrôle en exercice. La sensibilité est alors la caractéristique d’un système qui décrit la gravité de sa réponse à une perturbation par rapport à l’ampleur de la force de la perturbation. L’approche hydrogéomorphologique d’analyse des dynamiques fluviales intègre deux dimensions, une sur la classification des styles fluviaux et l’analyse des puissances spécifiques et l’autre sur l’étude de la trajectoire géomorphologique. En s’appuyant sur le cas de la Menoua, on se pose la question de savoir quelle est la gravité de la réponse horizontale du chenal principal face aux sollicitations des lames d’eau inter-saisonnières ?.
