Abstract. This study presents an exhaustive assessment of the Sentinel-6A Michael Freilich Radio Occultation (RO) data, focusing on the evaluation of bending angle products derived from the EUMETSAT-provided RO Non-Time Critical (RO-NTC) data collected between September and December 2021. This analysis confirms the satellite's capability to exceed its target of 770 quality checked bending angle profiles per day, with an availability rate of 99.9 %, demonstrating the robustness of the mission's operational performance. A detailed examination of the Signal-To-Noise Ratio (SNR) and phase noise indicates the high-quality nature of the data. The study also analyses the benefits of employing SNR-based signal cutoff strategies and L2 signal extrapolation in the troposphere, where it is more susceptible to SNR reductions. Furthermore, the paper details some processor enhancements, which led to improved bending angle statistics, particularly below 22 km altitude. Additionally, the analysis revealed terrestrial interference signals on the L2 frequency, confirming that they do not significantly compromise the Sentinel-6A RO data quality. The validation of the EUMETSAT processed Sentinel-6A RO-NTC data against the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) short-range forecasts and comparisons with Metop-B/C and EUMETSAT-processed SPIRE occultations, highlights the reduction in random error and modifications in the tropospheric bias structure, a result of the enhancements in data processing techniques. This comprehensive analysis confirms the high quality of the EUMETSAT Sentinel-6A bending angle products and underlines the satellite's contribution to the EUMETSAT legacy of precise and reliable radio occultation data for weather forecasting and climate research.
Theoretical Annual Exceedances from Moving Average Drought Indices
Authors: Stagge James Howard , Sung Kyungmin , Munyejuru Irenee , Haidar Md Atif Ibne
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Numerous drought indices originate from the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and use a moving average structure to quantify drought severity by measuring normalized anomalies in hydroclimate variables. This study examines the theoretical probability of annual exceedances from such a process. To accomplish this, we derive a stochastic model and use it to simulate 10 million years of daily or monthly SPI values in order to determine the distribution of annual exceedance probabilities. We believe this is the first explicit quantification of annual extreme exceedances from a moving average process where the moving average window is proportionally large (5–200 %) relative to the year. The resulting distribution of annual minima follow a Generalized Normal distribution, rather than the Generalized Extreme Value (GEV) distribution, as would be expected from extreme value theory. From a more applied perspective, this study provides the expected annual return periods for the SPI or related drought indices with common accumulation periods (moving window length), ranging from 1 to 24 months. We show that the annual return period differs depending on both the accumulation period and the temporal resolution (daily or monthly). The likelihood of exceeding an SPI threshold in a given year decreases as the accumulation period increases. This study provides clarification and a caution for the use of annual return period terminology (e.g. the 100 year drought) with the SPI and a further caution for comparing annual exceedances across indices with different accumulation periods or resolutions. The study also distinguishes between theoretical values, as calculated here, and real-world exceedance probabilities, where there may be climatological autocorrelation beyond that created by the moving average.
Rediscovering Globigerina bollii Cita and Premoli Silva 1960

Published: May 2024

Abstract. Globigerina bollii Cita and Premoli Silva was described from the historical Langhian-type section in Langhe, Piedmont (Italy). Due to its peculiar compact morphology, it was set apart from all the other globigerinids typical of the coeval Mediterranean fauna, and it was only reported for a short and limited stratigraphic range. The taxon became a first-order marker for the local biostratigraphy with its own Globigerina bollii Zone within the Langhian stage. However, the species was later synonymised with Globigerina falconensis Blow, ending its use in biostratigraphic schemes, and it was no longer utilised by authors working in the Mediterranean area and Paratethys. We present a reassessment of Globigerina bollii, showing for the first time a full collection of high-quality scanning electron and optical microscope images of the type series of specimens and a comparative study with Mediterranean individuals from the Langhian of the Cretaccio Section (Italy) and extra-Mediterranean individuals from Ocean Drilling Program Site 747 in the Kerguelen Plateau (Indian Ocean). The stratigraphic ranges of all the occurrences cited in the scientific literature from 1960 to the present day and all the references including images of the taxon are compiled. We compare G. bollii to other four-chambered morphospecies inhabiting the oceans during the Miocene, providing a detailed discussion of their morphological differences, which allows us to retain G. bollii as a valid taxon and to disclaim its synonymy with Globigerina falconensis. Our taxonomical observations also allow us to reassign Globigerina bollii to the genus Globoturborotalita, due to its strong affinities with other members of that genus, such as G. eolabiacrassata Spezzaferri and Coxall, and G. ouachitaensis (Howe and Wallace). We present a direct visual comparison with the other representatives of middle Miocene globoturborotaliids. An additional comparison is also discussed with Globigerina bollii lentiana Rögl, a species endemic in the Paratethys. We conclude that the presence of G. bollii in the Mediterranean Basin during such a confined stratigraphic interval (Mediterranean Subzone MMi4c–MMi4d), might be a palaeogeographical indicator of the intermittent opening of the eastern gateway with the Paratethys, affecting the Mediterranean faunas during the Langhian and their migration from oceanic realms into the Paratethys and Mediterranean.

Reforming the Landscape for Women who Kill their Abusers in Scotland
Authors: McPherson Rachel
Published: May 2024

Using Scotland as a case study, this paper identifies key areas in which there could be potential reform for women who kill their abusive partners. The study focuses on two particular areas: the use of specialised courts and the use of expert evidence on coercive control. The paper concludes that there exist multiple avenues of reform with the potential to improve women’s experiences of the criminal justice system. However, for these to be utilised, there must be clear recognition that cases of this type are domestic abuse cases. As such, they should be considered firmly within current national domestic abuse policy rather than continuing to sit outside existing frameworks.

Published: May 2024

Metagenomic shotgun sequencing has revolutionized the study of microbiology, However, assessing metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) quality and identifying mobile genetic elements remain key challenges. This thesis developed CheckM2 and RecurM, novel bioinformatic tools that improve microbial genome quality assessment using machine learning and identify novel plasmids and viruses from metagenomic data. The tools were applied to thousands of human gut metagenomes, revealing tremendous plasmid diversity and complex interactions between plasmids and key microbial community members. CheckM2 and RecurM provide key bioinformatic innovations that advance functional characterization of microbiomes through metagenomic sequencing, enabling further biological analysis of microbial communities.
Apostolski Kościół a Pismo apostolskie
Authors:   Papieski Wydział Teologiczny we Wrocławiu, Zatwardnicki Sławomir
Published: May 2024

Wyjściowym założeniem prowadzonej w niniejszej monografii refleksji teologicznej stał się związek między znamionami Kościoła a przymiotami Pisma Świętego. Zakres badań ograniczono do apostolskiego przymiotu Pisma Świętego w jego związku z apostolskim znamieniem Kościoła, tak jak się go rozumie w katolickiej teologii. Katolickie pojmowanie natury i misji Pisma Świętego, jakkolwiek w wielu punktach jest zbieżne z ujęciem protestanckim, różni się jednak doktrynalnie od tego, co proponują teologowie wpisujący się w tradycję reformacji. Tym samym monografia może stanowić katolicki wkład w doktrynę Pisma Świętego, ponieważ po pierwsze włącza w nią istotny dla katolickiej doktryny związek Pisma z Kościołem, a po drugie czyni to biorąc pod uwagę katolicką doktrynę eklezjologiczną. Zaprezentowano w monografii rolę ustanowionego przez Chrystusa urzędu na podstawie dokumentów Kongregacji Nauki Wiary, aby następnie zestawić podkreślone przez kongregację prawdy wiary katolickiej z poglądami Roberta Williama Jensona, luterańskiego teologa o ekumenicznych zainteresowaniach, otwartego na katolickie stanowisko. Jego refleksje pomogły w teologicznym pogłębieniu eklezjologicznych tez kongregacji, a także pozwoliły na wyraźne wskazanie różnicy między ujęciem katolickim a protestanckim. Stało się to punktem wyjścia do kontynuowania już samodzielnej, choć prowadzonej w dialogu ze spuścizną uznanych teologów, dogmatycznej refleksji nad apostolskością Pisma Świętego w jej związku z apostolskością Kościoła. Więź ta zaznacza się zarówno na etapie kształtowania się Nowego Testamentu w okresie apostolskim, jak i w całej późniejszej historii Kościoła poapostolskiego. Można ją rozpatrywać albo z perspektywy Pisma determinującego apostolskość Kościoła, albo odwrotnie, z perspektywy Kościoła apostolskiego służącego apostolskości Pisma. Najpierw ukazano związek kanonu biblijnego z sukcesją apostolską oraz służbę Magisterium słowu Bożemu. Następnie przedstawiono rolę Pisma Świętego w realizacji misji apostolskiej i eschatologicznego celu Kościoła. W ostatniej części monografii refleksji teologicznej poddano współistnienie apostolskiego Pisma i Tradycji apostolskiej, zwracając uwagę zwłaszcza na tradycję liturgiczną.

Utilizing first principles, the structural, elastic, magnetic, and electronic properties of Co2YGe FH (Full-Heusler) alloys where Y is Ni, Ru have been examined. The partial and total densities of states, as well as electronic band structures, have been calculated. The Co2YGe alloys half metallic-nature is confirmed by the computed band structures, which show that the valence and conduction bands in the up spin channel overlap at the Fermi-level while here is a band-gap between them in the down spin channel. These compounds have ½ (half) metallic properties, as seen by the TDOS and PDOS. According to mechanical characteristics, the alloys Co2NiGe and Co2RuGe are highly stiff and they respectively are ductile and brittle. By their magnetic characteristics this is demonstrated that compound have Para magnetism property as their net magnetic moment is not zero. According to the results, these alloys could be a contender for spintronic devices.

Gastro esophageal reflux (GER) is a widespread physiological phenomenon in children. In some children GER may be described as pathological and contribute to respiratory problems such as bronchial asthma and upper respiratory tract. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of Gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD) in children. Thirty children (up to 6 months of age) suspected with GERD were included in this study. The gastric emptying (SPECT) study was conducted according to predetermine protocol. All patients underwent Tc-99m DTPA gastric imaging for 30 minutes for children. The study was analyzed qualitatively i.e. visual analysis and quantitatively i.e. time activity curve (TAC) and Reflux index percentage (RI %) analysis for the presence of GER. The detection rate of GER in our study was 33% in children. This shows poor diagnoses of physicians because most of the children suffering from vomiting problems were diagnosed GERD but actually they were suffering from asthma and tonsillitis. The diagnosis and treatment of GER is mandatory in children asthma and tonsillitis. Gastric SPECT represents a significant advance in the diagnosis and quantitation of GER. It is one of the simplest radionuclide investigations which can be conducted with least patient inconvenience at a considerable low radiation burden. It can detect GERD with great accuracy even after physiologic neutral pH meal.

Published: May 2024

В рамках развития критических технологий необходим поиск альтернативной замены компонентов в составах алюминиевых лигатур, в том числе, известных модифицирующих добавок скандия и иттрия другими редкоземельными и редкими элементами. Алюминиевые лигатуры с редкоземельными металлами широко рассматриваются во многих научных трудах, однако исследования по получению лигатур Al–Yb ограничены. В работе изучено производство лигатур системы алюминий–иттербий из оксида иттербия при алюмотермическом восстановлении, с наноразмерными интерметаллическими соединениями Al3Yb и эвтектиками в структуре. Частицы интерметаллических соединений оптимальных размеров, являясь центрами кристаллизации, обеспечивают равномерную мелкозернистую структуру в отливках из алюминиевых сплавов. Получена зависимость для наиболее максимального перехода иттербия в сплав от количественного и качественного состава реакционной смеси и различных технологических параметров плавки. Проведенные исследования показали, что лигатуры, полученные способом алюмотермического восстановления оксида иттербия с добавлением в реакционную смесь магния в количестве 5–15 масс.%, имеют наибольший показатель перехода иттербия в лигатуру.

As part of the development of critical technologies, it is necessary to search for alternative replacement of components in the compositions of aluminum ligatures, including known modifying additives of scandium and yttrium with other rare earth. Aluminum ligatures with rare earth metals are widely considered in many scientific papers, but the research on the production of Al-Yb ligatures is limited. The production of ligatures of the aluminum-ytterbium system from ytterbium oxide by aluminothermal reduction, with nanoscale Al3Yb intermetallic compounds and eutectics in the structure, is studied in this work. Particles of intermetallic compounds with optimal sizes, being crystallization centers, provide uniform fine-grained structure in aluminum alloy castings. The dependence for the maximum transition of ytterbium into the alloy on the quantitative and qualitative composition of the reaction mixture and various technological parameters of melting was obtained. The conducted studies have shown that the ligatures obtained by aluminothermal reduction of ytterbium oxide with addition to the reaction mixture from 5 to 15% of the mass of Yb amount of magnesium have the highest transition index of ytterbium into the ligature.

Published: May 2024

Bu araştırma 2022-2023 eğitim-öğretim yılında ilkokul 4. sınıflarda kullanılan Sosyal Bilgiler ders kitabını 21. yüzyıl becerileri bağlamında değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman analizinin kullanıldığı araştırmada veri analizi süreci içerik analizi tekniği ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu süreçte ders kitabındaki soru ve etkinliklerin hangi 21. yüzyıl becerilerine yönelik hazırlandığı kodlama ve kategorize etme süreçleri ile tespit edilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarından ulaşılan bulgulara göre kitapta yer alan toplam 128 sorunun 113'ü eleştirel düşünme, 8'i iletişim ve 7'si yaratıcılık becerisine yöneliktir. Bu durum, kitapta yer verilen soruların işbirliği, iletişim ve yaratıcılık becerilerine yeterli ölçüde odaklanmadığını göstermektedir. Ayrıca, kitaptaki toplam 51 etkinlikten 24'ü eleştirel düşünme, 3'ü işbirliği, 12'si iletişim ve 12'si yaratıcılık becerisine yönelik olarak tasarlanmıştır. Bu sonuçlar genel olarak, Sosyal Bilgiler ders kitabının 21. yüzyıl becerilerini yeterli ve eşit düzeyde kapsama bakımından, özellikle işbirliği, iletişim ve yaratıcılık becerileri bağlamında önemli eksikliklere sahip olduğunu göstermektedir. İşbirliği becerisinin kitapta dikkat çekici düzeyde yetersiz temsil edilmesi, bu alandaki potansiyel gelişim fırsatlarının gözardı edilmiş olabileceğine işaret etmektedir. Söz konusu bulgular ışığında, gelecek dönemlerde hazırlanacak ders kitaplarında 21. yüzyıl becerilerinin tümüne eşit ve yeterli düzeyde yer verilmesi önerilmektedir.
Apokrif Eserlerden Beslenen Meryem Kültü
Authors: Yıldız Hülya
Published: May 2024

Apokrif eserler, Kutsal Kitap’ta yer almayan ancak bazı Hristiyan topluluklarında dini öneme sahip olan metinlerdir. Bu metinler arasında İsa’nın annesi Meryem’in yaşamına dair anlatımlar bulunur. Özellikle bazı apokrif eserlerde Meryem’in yaşamına, mucizelerine ve İsa’nın doğumuyla ilgili detaylara dair anlatılar bulunmaktadır. Bu eserler, Katolik Kilisesi gibi Meryem’e büyük önem veren Hristiyan topluluklarında Meryem’in hayatının şekillenmesine ve zamanla onunla ilgili bir kült oluşumunu etkilemiştir. Bahse konu olan apokrifler sadece bir kült oluşturmakla kalmayıp Katoliklikte Meryem’le ilgili inanç esaslarının nüvelerini içinde barındırmasından dolayı bu inançların dogmalaşmasında etkin olmuştur. Meryem’in hayatına yer veren eserler iki kategoride ele alınabilir. Onun doğumu ve gençliğini ele alan çocukluk İncilleri ile hayatının sonuna yer veren ve “Uyku Geleneği” (Dormition Tradition) olarak adlandırılan eserler grubudur. İsa’nın çocukluğuna yer vermesinden dolayı Çocukluk İncilleri olarak adlandırılan bazı apokrif metinlerde ana kahraman Meryem’dir ve anlatı onun hayatı üzerinden akar. Bunlardan en bilinen ve yaygın olanı Yakup İncilidir. Bu çalışmada, Meryem kültünün oluşumuna katkısından dolayı Yakup İnciline ek olarak Sözde Matta İncili de ele alınmıştır. Katoliklerde, Meryem’in ölümü ve göğe yükselmesi 1950 yılında dogma yani bir inanç esası olarak ilan edilmiştir. Bu inanç esasını besleyen en eski kaynaklar ise apokrif eserlerdir. Makale kapsamından ve konunun anlaşılmasından dolayı Meryem’in hayatının sonunu ele alan eserler arasından” Book of Mary’s Repose” (Meryem’in Uykusu) ve “Six Books Dormition Apocryphon” (Meryem’in Uykusunu anlatan Altı Apokrif Eser) eserleri ele alınacaktır. Bu eserler, kanonik kaynaklarda ve erken dönem Hristiyan kayıtlarında yer almayan Meryem’in vefatı ve göğe yükselmesiyle ilgili bilgileri bize sunmaktadır.
Aesthetic-Epistemological Contradiction in the Concept of Water
Authors: Macías Recio Alicia
Published: May 2024

The following paper highlights the contradictions that exist in the understanding of water: it is considered a marketable resource over which one can exert power and, at the same time, a common good used by the planet’s species and ecosystems. Based on this, and after an analysis of several widespread ideas, the paper proceeds to describe the paradox in the perception of water as a product of an alienated aesthetics that makes it impossible to experience the after-effects of the Westernised world. This lack of perception will be called aesthetic omission, corresponding to Eaton’s “nonperceivables” (2000). The text urges us to be aware that these kinds of aesthetics exclusions around water have global effects and ultimately determine the fate of life on Earth itself. Therefore, a complex revision of the established ontology of water is proposed in response.
Keywords: water; nonperceivables; aesthetics; epistemology; Earth
Yapıştırma Bağlantılarında Hasar Kriterlerinin İncelenmesi
Authors: Saraç İsmail
Published: May 2024

Yapıştırıcıların endüstriyel uygulamalarda kullanımının artmasıyla birlikte, yapıştırma bağlantılarında hasar analiz çalışmaları yapılmaya başlanmıştır. Yapılan çalışmalar, yapıştırma bağlantılı yapıların tasarımında mühendisler için önemli bilgiler sunmuş ve tasarımların şekillenmesine katkı sağlamıştır. Yapıştırma bağlantılarının mukavemetini tahmin etmeye yönelik ilk çalışmalar analitik yaklaşımlar kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Bunu takiben, Sonlu Elemanlar Yönteminin yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte, geometri sınırlaması olmaksızın, yapıştırma bağlantılarının dayanım tahminleri kapsamlı bir şekilde yapılmaya başlanmıştır. Yapıştırıcılar için literatürde çok sayıda hasar kriteri mevcuttur. Hasar kriteri seçiminde, kullanılan yapıştırıcının sünek veya gevrek yapıda olduğunun bilinmesi önemlidir. Ayrıca, yapıştırıcı hasar kriterinin uygulanabilmesi için, yapıştırıcı tabakasının, bağlantının toplam mukavemetinin en zayıf kısmı olması gerekir. Bu çalışmada, gevrek karakterli Araldite AV138 ve sünek yapıda olan Araldite 2015 yapıştırıcılar kullanılarak oluşturulan tek tesirli bindirme bağlantılarında analitik ve sayısal yöntemler kullanılarak hasar yükleri hesaplanmıştır. Elde edilen analitik ve sayısal hasar yükleri literatürdeki bir deneysel çalışma ile karşılaştırılarak, yapıştırıcı plastik davranışının, hasar kriteri seçiminde önemi gösterilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, gevrek karakterli yüksek dayanımlı AV138 yapıştırıcının kullanıldığı tek tesirli yapıştırma bağlantılarında Von Mises kriterinin, sünek yapıdaki Araldite 2015 yapıştırıcının kullanıldığı tek tesirli yapıştırma bağlantılarında ise Global Akma kriterinin kullanılmasının incelenen diğer yöntemlere göre daha uygun olduğu gösterilmiştir.

Bu çalışma 2017 – 2018 yıllarında Atatürk Bahçe Kültürleri Merkez Araştırma Enstitüsü deneme alanında yer alan 5 yaşındaki ‘Nero’ ve ‘Viking’ aronya (Aronia melanocarpa (Michx) Elliot) çeşitleri üzerinde yürütülmüştür. Denemede iki yıl boyunca fenolojik gözlem kayıtları tutulmuş, morfolojik ölçümler yapılmış, verim değerleri incelenmiştir. ‘Nero’ ve ‘Viking’ aronya çeşitlerinde 2017 ve 2018 yıllarında fenolojik gözlem tarihleri bakımından farklılıklar tespit edilmiştir. Tam çiçeklenmeden hasada kadar geçen gün sayısı ‘Nero’ aronya çeşidinde 2017 yılında 140 gün ‘Viking’ çeşidinde ise 144 gün, 2018 yılında ise sırasıyla 136 ve 139 gün olarak belirlenmiştir. Morfolojik özellikler bakımından yapılan inceleme sonucunda, ‘Viking’ aronya çeşidinin ‘Nero’ aronya çeşidine göre daha dik büyüme eğiliminde olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca bitki boyu, ocaktaki sürgün sayısı, boğum arası genişlik ve bitki hacmi bakımından ‘Viking’ aronya çeşidinin ‘Nero’ çeşidinin önünde yer aldığı saptanmıştır. Buna paralel olarak verim bakımından ‘Viking’ çeşidinin ‘Nero’ çeşidinden daha yüksek verim verdiği belirlenmiştir.

The rhetorical aspect of the Holy Quran is dominated in conveying its message. The Quran presents its teaching in various forms and one of its distinctive features is to narrate stories. People are always attracted towards stories as they learn life lessons from them. The Quran also uses this method and engages its reader by narrating historical incidences of different prophets and nations.  These stories definitely provide different lessons to the reader which are important for the character building of an individual. Besides this, another characteristic of the Quranic narrations is uniqueness in its eloquence, literary and linguistic style. This article aims to discuss the rhetorical features of the Quranic stories in depth. The Quranic linguistic miracles encompass similes, metaphors, lexical cohesion, tropes, appropriate usage of different expressions, synonyms and antonyms, pragmatic coherence, repetition of words and thematic sequence etc. An individual can observe that linguistic excellence is prominent in the Quranic narrations. This article sheds light on some of the aspects of ilm al bayan in the stories and this demonstrates the miraculous nature of the Quranic Discourse. It proves that the miracle of the Quran is inimitable as no one succeeded to accept the challenge of producing something like Divine Word which possesses clarity of message and eloquence simultaneously.

Authors: García Nelson
Published: May 2024

Tan debatidos como denunciados por las ONG y los organismos internacionales, los derechos humanos se han convertido en una de las dimensiones más controversiales en el siglo XXI. En cuanto a África, su consideración o desconsideración ha estado mediada por los comportamientos políticos en algunas escenas nacionales que los ha restringido y vulnerados. En este sentido, el presente artículo tiene como objetivo ubicar el lugar de los derechos fundamentales dentro de la entonces Organización para Unidad Africana (OUA), —Unión Africana (UA) desde el 2001— y valorar cuál ha sido su incidencia dentro de la gobernabilidad continental.
