Early childhood needs to get stimulation of fine motor skills, but most play models train gross motor skills. This study aims to find out: (1) the difference in the effect of playdough and collage play models on improving fine motor skills in early childhood. (2) the difference in the effect between high and low independence on improving fine motor skills in early childhood. (3) The interaction between playdough and collage playing models is viewed from the aspect of independence to improve early childhood fine motor skills. This type of research is an experiment using a 2 x 2 factorial design. The population in this study was 38 Yogyakarta National Kindergarten children. The sample in this study amounted to 20 children taken using purposive sampling criteria (1) specific children aged 5-6 years, (2) children who are actively attending school, (3) children who are not sick, (4) willing to follow the learning process (5) Able to follow all learning model programs that have been prepared, then ordinal pairing is carried out to divide each group. The instruments used to measure fine motor use are (1) pattern thickening test, (2) coloring test, (3) Patterning test (4) scissors test, (5) bead crocheting test with string thread. The data analysis technique used is ANOVA two-way. Among early childhood, playdough play models outperform collage play models with a high level of independence. Conversely, collage play models are better than playdough play models in improving fine motor skills in early childhood with low levels of independence. Children who have high independence are higher (good) than children who have low independence, with an average posttest difference of 2.1. There is an interaction between the playdough playing model and collage playing in terms of independence (high and low) to improve fine motor skills in early childhood, with an F value of 93.633 and a significance value of p 0.000 (< 0.05). With the results of this study can consider in determining the type of play model for early childhood. However, future research may be suggested to reconfirm these findings.

This study aims to analyze and highlight the potential of citrus limon in reducing inflammation and oxydatif stress after physical activity/exercise. This study uses a systematic review method by searching various journal databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, Pubmed, and Embase. The inclusion criteria in this study were articles published within the last 5 years and articles discussing Limon, Inflammation, Free Radicals, and physical exercise. Exclusion criteria in this study were articles published in disreputable journals. A total of 1665 articles from Scopus, Web of Science Pubmed and Embase databases were identified. A total of 7 articles that met the inclusion criteria were selected and analyzed for this systematic review. For standard operations, this study follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) assessment. The results of this systematic research review report that the flavanoid content found in citrus limon has anti-oxidant properties that can reduce oxidative stress. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory properties of citrus limon can reduce uncontrolled inflammation due to physical activity and intense exercise. In this case, citrus limon works by inhibiting inflammation through NF-kB signaling and reducing inflammation by suppressing the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-a. Reducing inflammation can potentially reduce the intensity of muscle pain. We recommend that citrus limon be used in individuals to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation caused by physical activity and intense exercise.

The purpose of this study to examines the effect of differences between intervention programs using basic water confidence, flexibility, and freestyle swimming techniques on freestyle swimming skills. A quasi-experimental research design was adopted. There were three groups in this study, namely two experimental groups and one control group. The number of participants in the three groups was 90 people where they were carried out pre-test and post-test on freestyle swimming skills. The data analysis used is inferential testing, Covariance Analysis (ANCOVA), Assumption of Homogeneity of Variance, Data Normality Test and Statistical Assumption Test (T-test paired samples). Results. From the pre-test and post-test scores, ANCOVA results show that the effect of basic water confidence, flexibility, and freestyle swimming technique is significant on freestyle swimming skills at a good level. Next, a paired sample t-test was conducted, the results of the flexibility exercise with the highest score, while the group with the basic water confidence exercise got a pretty good score, although not as high as the score achieved by the group that did the flexibility exercise. While the scores with practice with freestyle swimming techniques did not show a significant effect on freestyle swimming skills. Conclusions. Thus, the findings prove that training with water-based confidence and flexibility has been shown to improve freestyle swimming skills in elementary school students. However, when this form of exercise must be applied in the appropriate order, starting with flexibility exercises, basic water confidence, and freestyle swimming technique to achieve freestyle swimming skills in elementary school students.

O tipo de esporte e o sexo do jogador estão entre as variáveis ​​que podem influenciar o estado de fluidez em uma competição atlética. Porém, dado que existem poucos estudos sobre a manifestação do fluxo em atletas escolares de handebol, não é possível determinar de forma definitiva quais dimensões estão mais frequentemente presentes e quais poderiam ser exatamente as diferenças por sexo. Portanto, os objetivos deste estudo foram analisar quais dimensões do fluxo são percebidas por atletas escolares de handebol e verificar a influência do sexo na percepção dessas dimensões. Participaram deste estudo 110 jovens atletas escolares de handebol, sendo 55 mulheres e 55 homens, com idade média de 16±1 e 16±1 anos, respectivamente. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados questionário sociodemográfico e escala de predisposição de fluxo (FSS-2). Os resultados mostram que a experiência autotélica, objetivos claros e concentração intensa foram mais percebidas, enquanto a dimensão menos percebida foi a fusão ação-atenção. Além disso, observou-se que as dimensões objetivos claros, concentração intensa e controle foram percebidas mais pelos homens do que pelas mulheres. Conclui-se que os atletas escolares de handebol apresentam elevada percepção da experiência autotélica. Eles se sentem focados e têm alguma clareza sobre suas metas e objetivos. Contudo, apresentaram baixas percepções da dimensão fusão ação-atenção. Por fim, os atletas do sexo masculino estão confiantes no que precisam fazer, mantêm a atenção focada na atividade e são mais capazes de lidar e lidar com a situação pela qual estão passando do que as mulheres.

A Review of Fundamental Approaches for Fatigue Analysis of Welded Steel Joints
Authors: TALASLIOĞLU Tuğrul , YÜCEL Gökhan
Published: December 2023

Fatigue damage occurs in welded steel joints under cyclic loads. These joints are particularly vulnerable to fatigue due to high stress concentrations. Today, with the developing numerical analysis software, fatigue life calculations are carried out with different methods based on the fatigue life and the stresses that will occur in the elements. These methods, which may differ from each other, examine the stress distributions occurring under different loading conditions and the initiation, development and collapse of the damage occurring in the element. Fatigue analysis methods are divided into two groups as local and global approaches. In global methods, the critical stress that will occur on the entire structure is considered, while local geometry and local parameters are examined in local methods. This study presents fatigue analysis methods of welded steel joints.

In this paper, we propose a system that discriminate cement-based composite including sea sand by using microwave patch antennas. The composites with sea sand have vital importance in construction engineering industry because ionised steel reinforced composites could cause life threatening damages. Firstly, to analyse cement-based composite including sea sand, 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% chlorine ionised sea sand containing concrete samples were produced and complex dielectric measurements were conducted. In addition, two 2.45GHz patch antennas were designed in microwave simulator and also it was integrated to the concrete models. Furthermore, simulated results shows that this approach could be used as a sensor with nearly 30MHz resonance shifts. Finally, proposed system was supported by experimental investigation. This type of configuration has many advantages as easy design, easy fabrication, cheap and flexible to non-destructive cement based composite measurements.

Tsallis Holographic Dark Energy with Granda-Oliveros Scale in Bianchi-Type V Universe
Authors: KORUNUR Murat , KORUNUR Sibel
Published: December 2023

A wide variety of cosmological observations show us that our universe is in an accelerated expansion phase. Dark Energy and Dark Matter are thought to be two of the causes of this accelerated expansion. Therefore, scientists have recently been doing many studies on dark energy and matter. In particular, many energy density relations are written, and research is done about space-time structure. In this sense, the Tsallis holographic dark energy model is also in a current and interesting position. The study establishes a relationship between the Tsallis holographic dark energy (THDE) model and some scalar fields (quintessence, tachyon, dilaton scalar fields, etc.) specific to the Bianchi-type V space-time model. The relationship above is discussed within the Granda-Oliveros (GO) cut-off framework. The state equation parameter is calculated analytically, and the phase of our universe for this model is investigated with the graphs drawn. In addition, there is how the kinetic energy and the scalar potential change with time. The results are again analyzed numerically with graphs.

Photo‐identification images of the ventral tail flukes of an individual humpback whale with calf were taken off Barbados, West Indies in March 2022. These images were matched to photographs taken in Westfjords Iceland between August–September 2022. This adult female whale had previously been documented in Northeast and Westfjords Iceland in several years between 2006–2019. This represents the first documented within‐year mother and calf migration to the Icelandic feeding ground. Additionally, it represents the most southerly confirmed match of an individual identified in Icelandic waters to a West Indies breeding ground, in an area where there has been little dedicated research.

CORONECTOMY IN LOWER THIRD MOLAR AS AN ALTERNATIVE TECHNIQUE FOR PRESERVATION OF THE INFERIOR ALVEOLAR NERVE
Authors: Marques Ariele Cardoso Marques , Loiola dos Santos Yrla , Mello Lócio João Paulo
Published: December 2023

One of the procedures frequently performed by dentists is the removal of lower third molars. These teeth are commonly impacted and have an intimate relationship with the inferior alveolar nerve (IAN). The use of the coronectomy or intentional partial odontectomy technique is indicated in cases where the lower third molars have roots close to or associated with the IAN in order to avoid iatrogenic injuries. The technique consists of extracting the dental crown and cervical portion of the root, while the apical remainder is left in its natural place. This work aimed to describe coronectomy, including its procedural technique, advantages, indications and contraindications, as well as to understand the postoperative phenomena associated with lower third molars in close contact with the IAN. Nineteen articles from the last thirteen years were selected from the databases PubMed, Scielo, Google Scholar and CAPES journals with an emphasis on systematic reviews, published in English and Portuguese. Therefore, it is concluded that coronectomy is considered a satisfactory, safe and effective technique to be used in clinical practice, as long as the dentist knows how to indicate it appropriately, reporting its indications, contraindications and limitations.

Published: December 2023

Abstract. Current understanding of land–atmosphere exchange fluxes is limited by the fact that available observational techniques mainly quantify net fluxes, which are the sum of generally larger, bidirectional fluxes that partially cancel out. As a consequence, validation of gas exchange fluxes applied in models is challenging due to the lack of ecosystem-scale exchange flux measurements partitioned into soil, plant, and atmospheric components. One promising experimental method to partition measured turbulent fluxes uses the exchange-process-dependent isotopic fractionation of molecules like CO2 and H2O. When applying this method at a field scale, an isotope flux (δ flux) needs to be measured. Here, we present and discuss observations made during the LIAISE (Land surface Interactions with the Atmosphere over the Iberian Semi-arid Environment) 2021 field campaign using an eddy covariance (EC) system coupled to two laser spectrometers for high-frequency measurement of the isotopic composition of H2O and CO2. This campaign took place in the summer of 2021 in the irrigated Ebro River basin near Mollerussa, Spain, embedded in a semi-arid region. We present a systematic procedure to scrutinise and analyse measurements of the δ-flux variable, which plays a central role in flux partitioning. Our experimental data indicated a larger relative signal loss in the δ fluxes of H2O compared to the net ecosystem flux of H2O, while this was not true for CO2. Furthermore, we find that mole fractions and isotope ratios measured with the same instrument can be offset in time by more than a minute for the H2O isotopologues due to the isotopic memory effect. We discuss how such artefacts can be detected and how they impact flux partitioning. We argue that these effects are likely due to condensation of water on a cellulose filter in our inlet system. Furthermore, we show that these artefacts can be resolved using physically sound corrections for inlet delays and high-frequency loss. Only after such corrections and verifications are made can ecosystem-scale fluxes be partitioned using isotopic fluxes as constraints, which in turn allows for conceptual land–atmosphere exchange models to be validated.
Impact of Weather Patterns and Meteorological Factors on PM2.5 and O3 during the Covid-19 Lockdown in China
Authors: Shen Fuzhen , Hegglin Michaela I. , Yuan Yue
Published: December 2023

Abstract. The abnormal haze event in NCP (North China Plain) and the decline in ozone levels in SC (Southern China) from 21st January to 9th February 2020 have attracted public curiosity and scholarly attention during the COVID-19 lockdown. Most previous studies focused on the impact of atmospheric chemistry processes associated with anomalous weather elements in these cases, but fewer studies quantified the impact of various weather elements within the context of a specific weather pattern. To identify the weather patterns responsible for inducing this unexpected situation and to further quantify the importance of different meteorological factors during the haze event, two scenarios are employed. These scenarios compared observations to climatology averaged over the years 2015–2019 and the ‘Business As Usual’ (hereafter referred to as BAU) emission strength, using a novel structural SOM (Self-Organising Map) and ML (Machine Learning) models. The results reveal that the unexpected PM2.5 pollution and O3 decline from the climatology in NCP, North East China (NEC), and SC could be effectively explained by the presence of a double-centre high-pressure system. Moreover, the ML results provided a quantitative assessment of the importance of each meteorological factor in driving the predictions of PM2.5 and O3 under the specific weather system. These results indicate that temperature played the most crucial role in the haze event in NCP and NEC, as well as in the O3 decline in SC. This valuable information will ultimately contribute to our ability to predict air pollution under future emission scenarios and changing weather patterns that may be influenced by climate change.

Abstract. The surface velocity of glaciers is a key parameter that provides fundamental information on glacier dynamics and their adaptation to changes in climate; moreover, ice velocity measurements are a very important parameter for modelling glacier physics and their evolution. While a few decades ago ice velocity would rely on point measurements performed in the field, the processing of high temporal and spatial resolution information from satellites nowadays provides new insights and a vast quantity of data, on a global scale, for the measurement of ice velocity. As of today, few studies have been performed in Alpine regions, and rarely has the focus been on ice velocity evolution. In the present study, we analyse the average monthly velocities on Alpine glaciers in the Mont Blanc massif. Seven years of Sentinel-2 optical satellite imagery have been processed to obtain ice velocity data. The main objectives of the study are: (i) to characterise the variability of the velocity fields of such glaciers, referring both to their temporal (seasonal and interannual) and spatial variations; (ii) to find relationships between the morphology of glaciers and their kinematics. We measured the monthly velocities of thirty glaciers varying from 18.0 m yr-1 to 436.3 m yr-1, highlighting a breakpoint in the trends in 2020. This led to the identification of 13 glaciers showing accelerations of more than 20.0 m yr-2 between 2020 and 2022 compared to previous years. We identified five clusters of morphodynamic characteristics, thus describing five different glacier type classes.

Abstract. Isoprene is a crucial non-methane biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) that exhibits the largest emissions globally. It is chemically reactive in the atmosphere and serves as the primary source of generating secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in terrestrial and remote marine regions. However, a comprehensive estimation of marine isoprene emissions is currently lacking. Here we built a module to present a 20-year (2001–2020) global hourly dataset for marine isoprene emissions, including phytoplankton-generated biological emissions (BIO emissions) and photochemistry-generated emissions in the sea surface microlayer (SML emissions) based on the latest advancements in biological, physical, and chemical processes, with high spatial resolutions. Our dataset suggests the annual global marine isoprene emissions amount to 1.097±0.009 Tg yr−1. Among these, the BIO emissions are 0.481±0.008 Tg yr−1 while SML emissions contribute 0.616±0.003 Tg yr−1. The ability of this module to estimate marine isoprene emissions was evaluated through comparison with a series of observations of marine isoprene concentrations and emission fluxes. The annual total isoprene emissions across the tropical ocean show a declining trend from 2001 to 2020. Most ocean regions exhibit a 1-year emission period, whereas a significant intraseasonal period is found in the tropical ocean. This dataset can be employed as input for the simulation of marine SOA formation in earth system models. This work provides the foundation for further studies into the impact of the air–sea system on marine SOA formation and its climate effect. The DOI link for the dataset is https://doi.org/10.11888/Atmos.tpdc.300521 (Cui and Zhu, 2023).

The parameterization skill is first assessed with the High Mountain Asia Snow Reanalysis (HMASR), and three of them are implemented in the ORCHIDEE land surface model (LSM) and tested in global land–atmosphere coupled simulations. HMASR includes snow depth (SD) uncertainties, which may be due to the elevation differences between in situ stations and HMASR grid cells. Nevertheless, the SCF–SD relationship varies greatly between mountainous and flat areas in HMASR, especially during the snow-melting period. The new parameterizations that include a dependency on the subgrid topography allow a significant SCF bias reduction, reaching 5 % to 10 % on average in the global simulations over mountainous areas, which in turn leads to a reduction of the surface cold bias from −1.8 ∘C to about −1 ∘C in High Mountain Asia (HMA). Furthermore, the seasonal hysteresis between SCF and SD found in HMASR is better captured in the parameterizations that split the accumulation and the depletion curves or that include a dependency on the snow density. The deep-learning SCF parameterization is promising but exhibits more resolution-dependent and region-dependent features. Persistent snow cover biases remain in global land–atmosphere experiments. This suggests that other model biases may be intertwined with the snow biases and points out the need to continue improving snow models and their calibration. Increasing the model resolution does not consistently reduce the simulated SCF biases, although biases get narrower around mountain areas. This study highlights the complexity of calibrating SCF parameterizations since they affect various land–atmosphere feedbacks. In summary, this research spots the importance of considering topography in SCF parameterizations and the challenges in accurately representing snow cover in mountainous regions. It calls for further efforts to improve the representation of subgrid-scale processes affecting snowpack in climate models.

Published: December 2023

Point cloud videos play a crucial role in immersive applications enabled by holographic-type communication, which has been identified as an important service for 6G and beyond wireless systems and the metaverse. The significant volume of point cloud video demands efficient compression and transmission techniques to support the Quality of Experience (QoE) requirements of real-time immersive applications. A few Point Cloud Compression (PCC) techniques, such as MPEG PCC and Draco, have emerged in recent years, and studies have shown that each technique has its strengths and weaknesses under different system settings. This paper proposes a multi-codec rate adaptive point cloud streaming method to satisfy the QoE requirements of interactive and live applications considering available system resources. The proposed method leverages three common PCC techniques: MPEG V-PCC, MPEG G-PCC, and Draco. The performance of each PCC technique is evaluated under various test conditions, and then estimation models are constructed to predict the bit rate, the decoding time, and the quality of the reconstructed point cloud. Based on the user's quality requirements and available computational and communication resources, the proposed streaming method selects a codec along with appropriate compression parameters that can provide the minimum latency for streaming. Evaluation results demonstrate that the proposed method can provide better QoE than benchmark methods under various bandwidth and computation scenarios.
TransFiner: A full-scale refinement approach for multiple object tracking
Authors: Sun Bin
Published: December 2023

Multiple Object Tracking (MOT) is a task for containing detection and association. Plenty of trackers have achieved competitive performance. Unfortunately, for the lack of informative exchange on these subtasks, they are often biased toward one of the two and underperform in complex scenarios, such as the inevitable misses and mistaken trajectories of targets, when tracking individuals within a crowd. This paper proposes TransFiner, a transformer-based approach to post-refining MOT. It is a generic attachment framework that depends on query pairs, the bridge between an original tracker and TransFiner. Each query pair, through the fusion decoder, produces refined detection and motion clues for a specific object. Before that, they are feature-aligned and group-labeled under the guidance of tracking results (locations and class predictions) from the original tracker, finishing tracking refinement with focus and comprehensively. Experiments show that our design is effective, on the MOT17 benchmark, we elevate the CenterTrack from 67.8% MOTA and 64.7% IDF1 to 71.5% MOTA and 66.8% IDF1.

Published: December 2023

The sudy aims to focus on spatial transmission of Covid-19 in Turkey, to understand the channels through which it spreads by considering the regional socio-economic dimension. Within this scope, demographic, socioeconomic and healthcare factors associated with the spread of Covid-19 were analyzed in a provincial context. Spatial autocorrelation was used to examine parameters that spatially affect the number of cases. Spatial autocorrelation results reveal spatial differences in the spread of the pandemic. The findings highlight the importance of the space factor in reducing local contamination within the country. The results obtained will enable the discovery of risk factors for disease and will lead policy makers to make effective decisions. In this context, spatial-specific policy strategies will protect public health by reducing the spread of the virus.
COVID-19 PANDEMİSİ SÜRECİNDE KIRILGAN GRUP OLARAK SIĞINMACILARA YÖNELİK UYGULANAN POLİTİKALAR
Authors: BULUT Yakup , KULU BAY Seda
Published: December 2023

Küresel salgınların sosyo-ekonomik yapılar üzerindeki olumsuz etkilerine en çok maruz kalan kırılgan gruplar, Covid-19 Pandemisi sürecinde de bu etkilerden kurtulamamıştır. Özellikle birçok açıdan sorun yaşayan sığınmacılar, kırılgan gruplar içinde en çok soruna ve sıkıntıya maruz kaldığı görülmektedir. Pandemi sürecinde daha fazla ortaya çıkan işsizlik, ekonomik bozulmalar, sağlık harcamalarının yetersizliği gibi sorunlar, özellikle kadın, genç, yaşlı, engelli sığınmacıların oluşturduğu kırılgan grupları daha savunmasız bir hale getirmiştir. Maalesef, kırılgan gruplar içerisinde yer alan sığınmacılara yönelik uygulanan politikalar, özellikle AB ülkelerinin yaklaşımı çoğu kez yapıcı olmaktan uzak kalmıştır. Pandemi sürecinde sığınmacılar daha da kırılgan hale gelmişlerdir. Nitekim, Suriye krizi ile yaşanan olaylar dolayısıyla artan göçler, Doğu Avrupa başta olmak üzere tüm dünyada sığınmacı krizlerinin yaşanmasına neden olmuştur. İşte bu çalışma, Covid-19 Pandemisi sürecinde toplumun diğer kesimlerine nazaran daha olumsuz etkilenen kırılgan gruplar içerisindeki sığınmacılara karşı yürütülen politikaları incelemektedir. Betimleyici bir yöntemle ele alınan çalışmada yazılı kaynaklar, konu ile ilgili raporlar, Birleşmiş Milletler’in yaklaşımları, AB ülkeleri ve Türkiye’nin pandemi sürecindeki kırılgan bir grup olan sığınmacılara ilişkin politika ve yaklaşımları ortaya konacaktır.
Universities and the Challenge of Employability: Leveraging Labor Market Data for Relevant Lifelong Education
Authors: Fitó Àngels , Pagés Carmen
Published: December 2023

The economy and society are experiencing significant transformations fueled by the emergence of new technological advancements. These changes are affecting not just the job market, but also social norms and interactions. In light of this, universities cannot confine themselves to the mere creation and dissemination of knowledge, as education alone does not assure employment prospects. Rather, universities must strive to enhance the transformative impact of education on both individuals' employability and organizations' competitiveness. To accomplish this objective, it is essential to leverage labor market insights and artificial intelligence technology. 

The Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC) is an online university that serves almost 90,000 students and has over 100,000 alumni. Its primary mission is to provide lifelong learning opportunities to people. However, due to the rapidly changing job market and evolving skill requirements, the UOC is currently implementing a university-wide strategy to prioritize employability. This strategy involves three main components. Firstly, the UOC is establishing a scheme to collect, store, generate, analyze, and present labor market data in a user-friendly manner that supports informed decision-making. This scheme will also connect educational programs to learning outcomes that can be linked to labor market information. Secondly, new organizational roles are being created to ensure that labor market information is integrated into the design of course offerings and career guidance services. Lastly, an interface is being designed for students to independently evaluate their position in the labor market and make better career decisions. This strategy builds on existing employability services and creates a foundation for relevant lifelong learning.

The purpose of describing the UOC experience is to elucidate the strategy that universities should implement to enhance employability by capitalizing on the potential of artificial intelligence and big data.
