Inferring the tree regeneration niche from inventory data using a dynamic forest model
Authors: Käber Yannek , Hartig Florian , Bugmann Harald
Published: April 2024

Abstract. The regeneration niche of trees is governed by many processes and factors that are challenging to determine. Besides a species's geographic distribution, which determines if seeds are available, a myriad of local processes in forest ecosystems (e.g., competition and pathogens) exert influences on tree regeneration. Consequently, the representation of tree regeneration in dynamic forest models is a notoriously complicated process which often involves many subprocesses that are often data deficient. The ForClim forest gap model solved this problem by linking species traits to regeneration properties. However, this regeneration module was never validated with large-scale data. Here, we compare this trait-based approach with an inverse calibration approach where we estimate regeneration parameters directly from a large dataset of unmanaged European forests. The inverse calibration was done using Bayesian inference, estimating shade and drought tolerance as well as the temperature requirements for 11 common tree species along with the intensity of regeneration (i.e., the maximum regeneration rate). We find that the parameters determining the species' light niche (i.e., light requirements) are similar for the trait-based and calibrated values for both model variants, but only a more complex model variant that included competition between recruits leads to plausible estimates of the drought niche. The trait-derived temperature niche did not match to the estimates from either model variant using inverse calibration. The parameter estimates differed between the complex and the simple model, with the estimates for the complex model being closer to the trait-based parameters. In both model variants, the calibration strongly changed the parameters that determine regeneration intensity compared to the default. We conclude that the regeneration niche of trees can be recovered from a large forestry dataset in terms of the stand-level parameters light availability and regeneration intensity, while abiotic drivers (temperature and drought) are more elusive. The higher performance (better fit to hold out) of the inversely calibrated models underpins the importance of informing dynamic models by real-world observations. Future research should focus on even greater environmental coverage of observations of demographic processes in unmanaged forests to verify our findings at species range limits under extreme climatic conditions.
Hybrid Hydrological Modeling for Large Alpine Basins: A Distributed Approach
Authors: Li Bu , Sun Ting , Tian Fuqiang , Tudaji Mahmut , Qin Li , Ni Guangheng
Published: April 2024

Abstract. Large alpine basins provide abundant water resources crucial for hydropower generation, irrigation, and daily life. It is thus crucial to develop high-performance hydrological models for water resources management in large alpine basins. Recently, hybrid hydrological models have come to the forefront, synergizing the exceptional learning capacity of deep learning with the interpretability and physical consistency of process-based models. These models exhibit considerable promise in achieving precision in hydrological simulations. However, a notable limitation of existing hybrid models lies in their failure to incorporate spatial information within the basin and describe alpine hydrological processes, which restricts their applicability in hydrological modeling in large alpine basins. To address this issue, we develop a set of hybrid distributed hydrological models by employing a distributed process-based model as the backbone, and utilizing embedded neural networks (ENNs) to parameterize and replace different internal modules. The proposed models are tested on three large alpine basins on the Tibetan Plateau. Results are compared to those obtained from hybrid lumped models, state-of-the-art distributed hydrological model, and purely deep learning models. A climate perturbation method is further used to test the applicability of the hybrid models to analyze the hydrological sensitivities to climate change in large alpine basins. Results indicate that proposed hybrid hydrological models can perform well in predicting runoff processes and simulating runoff component contributions in large alpine basins. The optimal hybrid model with Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficients (NSEs) higher than 0.87 shows comparable performance to state-of-the-art DL models. The hybrid distributed model also exhibits remarkable capability in simulating hydrological processes at ungauged sites within the basin, markedly surpassing traditional distributed models. Besides, the results also show reasonable patterns in the analysis of the hydrological sensitivities to climate change. Runoff exhibits an amplification effect in response to precipitation changes, with a 10 % precipitation change resulting in a 15–20 % runoff change in large alpine basins. An increase in temperature enhances evaporation capacity and changes the redistribution of rainfall and snowfall and the timing of snowmelt. It further leads to a decrease in the total runoff, the contributions of snowmelt runoff, and the intra-annual variability of runoff. Overall, this study provides a high-performance tool enriched with explicit hydrological knowledge for hydrological prediction and improves our understanding about the hydrological sensitivities to climate change in large alpine basins.
Flood frequency analysis using mean daily flows vs. instantaneous peak flows
Authors: Bartens Anne , Shehu Bora , Haberlandt Uwe
Published: April 2024

Abstract. In many cases, flood frequency analysis (FFA) needs to be carried out on mean daily flows (MDF) instead of instantaneous peak flows (IPF), which can lead to underestimation of design flows. Typically, correction methods are applied to the MDF data to account for such underestimation. In this study, we first analyse the error distribution of MDF-derived flood quantiles over 648 catchments in Germany. The results show that using MDF instead of IPF data can lead to underestimation of the mean annual peak flow (MHQ) by up to 80 % and mainly depends on the catchment area but appears to be influenced by gauge elevation as well. This relationship is shown to differ for summer vs. winter floods. To correct such underestimation, different linear models based on predictors derived from MDF hydrograph and catchment characteristics are investigated. Apart from the catchment area, a key predictor in these models is the event-based ratio of flood peak to flood volume (p/V ratio) obtained by the MDF data. The p/V models applied to either MDF-derived events or statistics seem to outperform other reference correction methods. Moreover, they require a minimum data input, are easily applied, and are valid for the entire study area. The best results are achieved when the L moments of the MDF maximum annual series are corrected with the proposed model, which reduces the flood quantile errors by up to 60 %. The approach behaves particularly well in smaller catchments (<500 km2), where reference methods fall short. However, the limit of the proposed approach is reached for catchment sizes under 100 km2, where the hydrograph information from the daily series is no longer capable of approximating instantaneous flood dynamics and gauge elevations below 100 m, where the difference between MDF and IPF floods is very small.
The Interrelation of Dialectic and Hermeneutics in Paul Ricœur’s Early Philosophy of the Self
Authors: Steinmetz Michael
Published: April 2024

While Ricœur's œuvre is commonly known as hermeneutic philosophy, it is evident that he also deals with major problems dialectically - a discipline often put in opposition to hermeneutics. In this paper, I offer an interpretation of the relationship between dialectic and hermeneutic regarding Ricœur's early theory of the self, which he developed in the 1960s, beginning with the second volume of his Philosophie de la volonté, Finitude et Culpabilité. I argue that hermeneutic and dialectic refer to each other by combining a structural model of reflexive self-consciousness and a mediation of consciousness with a transcendent other. Only their interrelation allows for a sufficient theory of concrete reflexion.

Published: April 2024

This study aims to examine the effect of adding calcium soap (Ca-PFAD) to feed on performance, carcass and abdominal fat in native chickens. A total of two hundred and forty 6 week old native chickens were obtained from commercial native chicken farming with an average body weight of 662.52±21.75 g. All chickens were kept in a room with controlled environment. A total of 240 native chickens were divided randomly into four treatments, namely control feed without Ca-PFAD supplement as control (C0); feed supplemented with 2% Ca-PFAD (C1); added feed with 4% Ca-PFAD (C2); and diet supplemented with 6% Ca-PFAD. All diets were isocaloric and isonitrogen. Each treatment had six replications and each replication had 60 chickens. The results showed that the addition of 2-4% Ca-PFAD in feed significantly (P<0.05) improved performance, carcasses, carcass percentage and carcass meat percentage. The amount of pad fat and abdominal fat in chickens decreased significantly (P<0.05) with the addition of 2% Ca-PFAD in the feed. It can be concluded that the addition of 2% calcium soap (Ca-PFAD) in feed can improve performance and carcass quality in native chickens, on the other hand it can reduce the amount of abdominal fat.

在反壟斷訴訟中，涉案商品服務的相關市場如何界定、當事方的限制性行為是否具有排除限制競爭效果等問題，往往成為雙方對事實爭議的焦點問題。而這些事實問題幷非普通的事實問題，而是科學事實問題，需要通過經濟學分析、社會學分析等科學方法加以論證。為輔助法庭對案件事實進行查明，雙方可以申請具有專業資質的專家提供專家意見或證詞，對所主張的事實加以論證。然而，法庭需要通過明確專家證人資質要求，來篩選真正能够對事實認定起到輔助作用的專家。另一方面，法庭還需要確立證詞可采性標準，審查評估專家證人證詞的可信度，最終决定對專家證人證詞是否采信。法學專家不能成為專家證人對科學事實進行論證，法官可以在判决書參考法學專家觀點來增強判决說理，但法律條文仍應由法官來解釋。
屏蔽視頻廣告行爲正當性判定的理路反思

Published: April 2024

在司法實踐中，屏蔽視頻廣告行為正當性判定的“同案不同判”現象根本上源于司法審理思路的差异。商業道德標準審理路徑存在精確化缺失的固有局限，而利益衡量標準審理路徑強調對于案件事實的實質性判斷，且內含可操作性分析框架，故應成為屏蔽視頻廣告行為正當性判定的更優路徑。為防止利益衡量的恣意，有必要借助比例原則方法提升審判的科學性。比例原則在屏蔽視頻廣告行為正當性判定的適用中，應確立謙抑性適用理念，由此形塑以屏蔽視頻廣告主體性質為劃分依據的“寬鬆”和“相對嚴格”的審查基準模型。在不同審查基準模型下，目的正當性、適當性、必要性和均衡性子原則的認定標準應有所區分。
Sport in the Cartoons of Charles Addams and Gary Larson: A Theater of Ludic Absurdity
Authors: Segrave Jeffrey O. , Cosgrove John A.
Published: April 2024

This article examines how sport illuminates the Dadaist foundations of Charles Addams’s and Gary Larson’s humor in their single-panel cartoons. The article also considers how Addams’s and Larson’s treatment of sport sheds light on particular theories of humor and elucidates their view of sport as human endeavor and social institution. Ultimately, this article argues that Addams and Larson portray sport in a way that suggests that the appropriate mode by which to approach life may well be the comic and playful one that characterizes Zen Buddhism. While the sport cartoons of Addams and Larson constitute a theater of ludic absurdity, in the end, they also offer us liberating enlightenment.
Mark Twain’s Earworm
Authors: Scharnhorst Gary
Published: April 2024

Mark Twain’s obsession with and popularization of Isaac Bromley’s original horsecar jingle not only inspired an entire school of horsecar poems but also parodies of them that satirized political campaigns, public corruption, organized labor, vices such as gambling and alcoholism, the work of newspaper editors as well as admonitions to respect the law. During the Great War, parodies of the jingle commended the women knitting brigades on the home front. The parodies also led to the introduction of jingles in advertising. The original rhyme has survived in the public imagination for generations.

Published: April 2024

The cultivation of Vitis vinifera varieties in Brazil was established in 1970. With the opening of the market to imported labels and a greater variety of wines, viticulture became more competitive, and consumers became more demanding. The aging of wine is a system that involves several reactions based on the extraction of molecules from the wood and also on the micro-oxygenation of beverages. The objective of this study was to investigate the sensorial and chemical evolution of wines aged in barrels of different woods: French oak (Quercus petraea), Amburana (Amburana cearensis), and Jequitibá Rosa (Cariniana legalis). The comparison of the sensorial and chemical characteristics of the aged wine with the non-aged one allowed us to know the modifications resulting from the maturation time. Their distinct evolution among the different species was identified through chromatographic analysis of maturation congeners. Perceived sensory characteristics and acceptance of Brazilian woods were measured using the Napping and UltraFlash Profile methodologies. Tropical woods stood out in terms of acceptance by tasters, and the sensory attributes listed by the panel differ between both.

Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt die Besonderheiten der Deduktion, Induktion und Abduktion als die wissenschaftlichen Schlussfolgerungen auf. Zunächst führt der Beitrag in eine Systematik ein, um wissenschaftliche Schlussfolgerungen im Sinne von Wege auf Landkarten darstellen zu können. Dazu dient eine kurze Einführung in die Bildpädagogik und die sich daraus entwickelnde Landkarte, um analog zu einer Wanderkarte die Denkbewegungen der Deduktion, Induktion und Abduktion nachvollziehbar zu machen. Danach werden die drei Schlussfolgerungen detailliert dargestellt, um deren jeweils spezifische Besonderheit hervorheben zu können.  Jede Beschreibung der jeweiligen Schlussfolgerung wird eine dazu passende Landkarte enthalten und zugleich noch die Relationen der Denkbewegungen in einer Mengenbildlichkeit und in einer iterativen Zeichenbeziehung visualisieren. Damit entstehen neben einem traditionellen Wasserfallmodell von den Schlussformen zusätzliche bildpädagogische Darstellungen, um die Schlussformen gedanklich ‚durchwandern‘ zu können. Am Ende werden die Besonderheiten der Deduktion, Induktion und Abduktion in einem gemeinsamen Abschluss aufgezeigt.

Mathematical Critical Thinking Profile Of Students On Pisa Framework Space And Shape Content Questions Reviewed From Self-Efficacy
Authors: Nuryadi Nuryadi , Sukestiyarno YL , Suyitno Hardi , Kharisudin Iqbal
Published: April 2024

The critical thinking skills of students in Indonesia are still low. This is attributed to teachers emphasizing solving mathematical problems with given formulas. Therefore, the PISA framework's space and shape content was used in this study to test students' abilities to identify similarities and differences in different objects, analyze the components of objects, and recognize different dimensions and representations. This research aims to describe and obtain students' cognitive knowledge at each stage of the mathematical critical thinking ability in working on PISA's space and shape content framework problems. The five indicators of mathematical critical thinking skills used are demonstrating problem understanding, explaining arguments according to mathematical concepts, using appropriate problem-solving methods, providing systematic modeling or explanations, and using alternative solutions in problem-solving. This qualitative research employed a grounded theory approach. Data were obtained through self-efficacy questionnaires, critical thinking ability tests on spatial geometry, and interviews. The self-efficacy questionnaire results were analyzed and categorized (high, medium, and low), with two students selected from each category as subjects. The research finding show that the indicator of using alternative solutions in mathematical problem-solving is not fulfilled in all three subject categories, which have high, medium, and low self-efficacy. Another aspect found in this study is the need for optimalization of reflective thinking for critical inquiry (contemplating) with effective communication among students or groups. This is necessary for identifying problems, detecting the correctness and errors of answers, and correcting them to draw accurate conclusions.

Отметим, что маркетплейс представляет собой некоторую оптимизированную онлайн-платформу, на которой строится определенная бизнес-модель по предоставлению возможности приобретения товаров.

E-commerce is one of the most rapidly developing areas of Russia’s economy. The main goal of e-commerce is to establish swift, flexible, and efficient connection between manufacturers of products and potential intermediaries and consumers via the use of digital technologies. This is particularly relevant for domestic commercial businesses that have to search for potential customers through their own means. This paper explores how marketplaces have become a new stage in the development of e-commerce and an integral part of trade relations in the retail network.

Published: April 2024

Rekreasyon faaliyetlerinin teknolojik gelişmelerle değişime uğraması dijital okuryazarlık gibi farklı kavramları gündeme getirmektedir. Bu doğrultuda bu çalışmanın amacı dijital okuryazarlığın sanal rekreasyon etkinliklerine katılım sıklığına ve rekreasyon fayda düzeyine etkisinin incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya Gazi Üniversitesi Spor Bilimleri Fakültesi öğrencisi olan 243 katılımcı dahil olurken, veri toplama aracı olarak kişisel bilgi formunun yanı sıra “Dijital Okuryazarlık Ölçeği”, “Rekreasyon Fayda Ölçeği” ve araştırmacıların oluşturduğu “Sanal Rekreasyon Anketi” kullanılmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, katılımcılar dijital okuryazarlık konusunda ortalamanın üzerinde bir seviyeye sahiptir. Sanal rekreasyonel faaliyetlere katılım sıklığı ise ortalamanın biraz altında, rekreasyonel fayda düzeyleri ise ortalamanın altındadır. Ayrıca, sanal sportif ve sanal eğlence faaliyetlerine katılım oranları ortalamanın üzerindedir. Dijital okuryazarlığın sanal rekreasyon faaliyetlerine katılım etkinlikleriyle genelde pozitif yönde zayıf düzeyde anlamlı ilişki ortaya koyduğu belirlenmiştir. Dijital okuryazarlık ile rekreasyon fayda alt boyutları arasında zayıf düzeyde negatif anlamlı ilişki olduğu saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak katılımcıların dijital okuryazarlığının artması durumunun sanal rekreasyon etkinliklerine katılım sıklıklarını ve rekreasyona yönelik algıladıkları fayda düzeylerini anlamlı biçimde yordadığı söylenebilir.

Published: April 2024

This study reports two cases of araneism in dogs caused by the bite of the brown widow spider (Latrodectus geometricus), one of which resulted in death. The first case presented mild signs, successfully treated with medication and ice packs. The second case, more severe, involved exacerbated local signs such as extensive edema and ecchymosis, and diffuse cutaneous hemorrhage in the affected limb, as well as systemic signs, including vomiting, tetraparesis, ataxia, and epileptic seizure, culminating in renal and hepatic failure, circulatory collapse, and death. The treatments employed were based on the symptoms and included the use of analgesics and anti-inflammatories. The study highlights the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, including the use of specific antivenoms in more severe cases. It emphasizes the importance of preventive measures, such as the use of insecticides, to prevent future accidents. Awareness of the clinical signs of poisoning and the available treatment options is crucial for healthcare professionals and veterinarians to ensure proper management of these incidents and minimize their consequences.
Progressive colapse efect in reinforced concrete buildings
Authors: Mendes Luiz Carlos , Alves Vancler Ribeiro
Published: April 2024

Progressive collapse is defined as the spread of an initial failure from element to element, eventually resulting in the collapse of an entire structure or a disproportionately large part of it according to ASCE (2002). It is a chain phenomenon where structural damage occurs in an amplified way due to the action of gravity or caused by some dynamic factor such as explosions.  Collapses of slabs on upper floors are very common caused by some dynamic fator or failures on reinforcements. The present paper aims to analyze the progressive collapse of concrete structures in commercial and residential buildings.  In this work, the dynamic background of progressive collapse are defined, the pathological aspects existing in buildings, as well as the calculation parameters used by Brazilian and international codes to prevent such pathologies. Real cases that occurred around the world are analyzed and how progressive collapse has been treated in recent decades. It is also suggested for cases in which the structure allows recovery, which procedures can be used.

The objective of the study was to characterize candiduria in patients admitted to a tertiary hospital and establish the risk factors associated with the development of candidemia. To this end, a laboratory and clinical surveillance study was carried out with samples of Candida spp. previously isolated from urine surveillance cultures of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, during the period from 2019 to 2020. It was demonstrated that the incidence of candidemia in patients with positive urine cultures for Candida spp. it was 17.7 per 1000 admissions and 80% of patients who developed candidemia died. The chance of developing candidemia was eight times greater in patients who had diseases of the digestive system that caused hospitalization and 26 times greater in those who had Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), compared to patients who did not have the comorbidity. We concluded that the possibility of developing candidemia from candiduria is 4.5%, however, the onset of candidemia, regardless of the source, worsens the patient's prognosis.
Az üzleti pszichológia és coaching adaptálhatósága a rendvédelmi szervek mindennapi működésébe egy empirikus vizsgálat tükrében
Authors: Balogh Mónika
Published: April 2024

Jelen tanulmányban az üzleti pszichológia és a coaching értelmezését követően egy empirikus kutatás eredményei kerülnek bemutatásra, melyben gyakorló pszichológusok és coach szakember vélekedését ismerhetjük meg a témával kapcsolatban. A felmérés az üzleti pszichológia és coaching rendvédelmi szervezetekben való beépítésének lehetőségeire fókuszál. A hierarchikus struktúrájú szervezet számos egyéniséggel rendelkezik, akik a rendvédelmet választották hivatásuknak, sok ezren több évtizede a rendszert szolgálják. Egy szervezet működtetetése nehéz feladat, amely a rendvédelem vonatkozásában fokozottan igaz, hiszen a parancsuralmi rendszer, a jogszabályi kötelmek alapjaiban meghatározzák a szervezet kereteit, a szervezeti kultúrát. Azt viszont nem szabad figyelmen kívül hagyni, hogy a rendszerben dolgozó személyek nem csupán fizikai testek, ők is érző emberek, akiknek a testi egészségük mellett a lelki egészségükre is figyelni kell ahhoz, hogy holisztikus értelembe véve egészségesek tudjanak maradni.
