Methods for Measuring Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Sanitation and Wastewater Management Systems: A Review of Method Features, Past Applications and Facilitating Factors for Researchers, Practitioners and Other Stakeholders
Authors: Ddiba Daniel , Rahmati Abkenar Mahboubeh , Liera Carla
Published: July 2024

This report presents an analysis of seven categories of enclosure-based and open methods described previously, and discusses their applicability across different sanitation and wastewater management technologies and geographical contexts. The report’s findings, based on a scoping literature review and interviews with a selection of experts, highlight key methodological gaps and opportunities for innovation. The findings reveal the predominant use of enclosure-based methods, such as static and flow-through flux chambers, which, despite their widespread adoption, are constrained by scale limitations and potential for measurement disturbances. In contrast, emerging methodologies like optical methods and remote sensing offer new avenues for broadscale, high-resolution emissions monitoring but are currently limited by their high cost and technical demands. With this report, the authors advocate for a holistic approach to greenhouse gas measurement in the sanitation and wastewater sector, emphasizing the need for adaptable methodologies that can be tailored to the varied conditions of sanitation systems worldwide. They call for enhanced collaboration among researchers, policymakers and practitioners to foster methodological advancements and standardization, thereby enabling more effective and widespread empirical data collection. Furthermore, the report underscores the critical importance of increased funding and capacity-building efforts to democratize access to advanced measurement techniques.

Authors: Onuche-Ojo Egwu Samuel , Joseph B. Eseyin , Apaleokhai D. Dako , Braimah A. Izuafa
Published: July 2024

Malaria is a major public health problem in developing countries. The prevalence of malaria is increasing year by year, resulting in a decrease in the number of deaths and morbidity. Malaria has become a serious public health issue worldwide, particularly in low resource underserved rural communities. There is an urgent need for a web-based predictive application using TensorFlow and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) for malaria detection. This paper provides a comparative overview of how the malaria situation has changed over time, showing which countries have maintained indigenous cases and which have progressed to different statuses by 2022. The goal of the paper is to showcase the efficacy of machine learning, particularly CNN and TensorFlow models, in detecting malaria using cell images. Moreover, the integration of a Web-Based Predictive System further enhances the accessibility and efficiency of our diagnostic tools, potentially contributing to better healthcare outcomes, especially in malaria-endemic regions.

Authors: Ebrahimi Nabi. A , Eskandari Zahra
Published: July 2024

This article reports the development and application of the Democratic Chemistry Classroom Environment Inventory (DCEI) which assesses students’ perceptions of six dimensions of their actual and preferred classroom environment: Equality, Important knowledge, Participatory decision-making, Inclusiveness, Rights and Authority. The DCEI was field tested with a sample of 510 Iranian first and second year undergraduate students in 23 chemistry classes. Various analyses attested to each scale’s reliability, factorial validity, and ability to differentiate between the perceptions of students in different classes. The data from this instrument is equally valid in its actual and preferred versions. In addition, comparison of Iranian university students’ scores on actual and preferred forms of the questionnaire revealed that students, within a democratic education framework, were not satisfied and preferred a more positive chemistry environment on all scales. The work is unique because it is the first classroom environment study which is concerned about democratic education ideas in chemistry classrooms and provides one of the few classroom environment studies conducted in Iran.

Authors: Atasoy Sengül , Ergin Serap , Şen Ahmet İlhan
Published: July 2024

The aim of this study is to determine the effects of peer instruction method on student attitudes towards physics course. In the study, single group pre and posttest quasi- experimental design was adopted. The study was conducted with 46 students registered to 9th grade in a secondary school situated in Ankara province in Turkey in the spring term of 2012-2013 educational year. During 50 class hours “Force and Motion” and “Energy” units were instructed with peer instruction method. “Physics Attitude Scale (PAS)” was utilized as the main data collection tool of the study. PAS is 5-choice Likert type scale with 30 items. The reliability coefficient Cronbach Alpha of the PAS was calculated as 0.963. PAS which, was applied onto the students before and after peer instruction period has 4 factors called; ‘physics course perception’, ‘appreciating the value of physics course’, ‘expectations about physics course’ and ‘hesitations about physics course’. The data obtained with PAS were analyzed with dependent samples t-test. There was statistically significant difference between ‘appreciating the value of physics course’ and ‘expectations about physics course’ factors. This difference may arise from that the peer instruction method encourages students to speak and share ideas among peers more frequently about physics phenomena. As a result of the study the application of peer instruction method was recommended as it facilitates conceptual discussions in abstract concepts of physics.

Physics Teachers’ Views on the Content and Structure of the Physics Teaching Program
Authors: Mercan Fatih Çağlayan
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study was to explore teachers’ views about the content and structure of the 2007 Physics Teaching Program. The participants were 39 teachers working in 27 different schools in Istanbul. The study was designed as a qualitative case study. The data were collected by conducting semi-structured interviews and were analyzed by employing the constant comparative method. The data showed that 38% of the teachers held positive dispositions towards connections of content with daily life; 74% of the teachers disliked spiral sequencing of content. The teachers raised concerns about discontinuity of content between the 9th grade, in which content is superficial, and the following grades, in which content is dense. The results suggest that context based approach to presenting physics content is appreciated by the teachers, hence, continuing the emphasis on the daily life connections can be recommended. The result simplifies a necessity to differentiate the curriculum to match different student needs and to convince teachers about the necessity of multiple goals of the curriculum.

Published: July 2024

Dynamic geometry software is computer programs which allow one to visualize abstract concepts as figures and dynamic representations on a computer screen. The effective use of such software as classroom materials becomes possible only when teachers and students have the necessary information and skills. This study aims to identify the graphing abilities of prospective teachers and analyze the impacts of Geogebra, dynamic geometry software, on these abilities. With this aim, a study was conducted on prospective teachers taking general mathematics course. In this study, it was observed that prospective teachers had difficulty especially with drawing and interpreting the graphs of trigonometric and rational functions. However, by using Geogebra they were able to draw and recognize the graphs of functions more easily. By means of interviews with prospective teachers and observations during the performance of activities, findings which verified the same conclusion were also obtained.

Despite the political, economic, social, and cultural importance of piracy, images of Atlantic piracy and privateering are rarely represented in seventeenth century Dutch visual culture. The illustrations created by Herman Padtbrugge for A.O. Exquemelin’s De Americaensche Zee-Roovers are a rare exception. The bestselling book, with its first-hand account of life as a buccaneer, was widely distributed throughout Europe and formed the basis of both our historical understanding of Caribbean piracy and its place in our poetic imagination. The transient distinction between piracy and privateering is linked to the cultural perception of the high seas as a freer, more open space, despite its increasing regulation and militarization. This article explores how the pictorial conventions used in the portrayal of pirates reflect their role as liminal figures – constantly shifting between licit and illicit, Old and New Worlds, and national affiliations – in the multicultural, rapidly evolving, and violent colonial context. Padtbrugge’s portraits borrow the visual language of the cult of naval heroes, only altering a few iconographical markers to indicate on which side of the law the subject and his actions fell upon. The minor nature of these differences reflects how heroic privateering in the service of national interests and criminal piracy in service of the individual were two sides of the same coin, shedding light on the legal paradox of the state-sanctioned right to pillage.
Staging Conscience
Authors: Van Dam Beatrix
Published: July 2024

Through an in-depth analysis of Johannes Nomsz’s play Iemant en Niemant (1768), this article explores how the seemingly anachronistic genre of zinnespel (morality play) could serve to negotiate key issues of eighteenth-century aesthetical discourse. The combination of abstract ideas and sensual images ingrained into this genre made it an ideal vehicle with which to approach one of the primary problems of the period, namely the mediation between reason and the senses. Nomsz’s play deals with this rationalist/empiricist divide concerning the moral philosophical question of whether reason or feelings guide human ethical behaviour. Through empathy with the allegorical character of Nobody, Nomsz draws his audience into the teeth of a moral dilemma through emotion rather than teaching them a moral lesson. At the same time, he connects moral sentiments to a rational procedure of moral self-judgement by staging conscience as an inner court. I call this way of applying the late medieval genre of morality play to the key questions of eighteenth-century aesthetics and philosophy ‘Enlightened zinnespel’. Turning to the zinnespel with its special capacity to merge mind and senses indicates that at this time, the role of art changed. Art was no longer seen as a medium of knowledge transference, but as a medium that could generate knowledge in a unique way because of its ability to combine cognitive, affective, and sensual dimensions.
Domesticating Human Capital

Published: July 2024

This article investigates the consumption of knowledge in early modern Amsterdam. A dataset of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century probate inventories is employed to examine the synergies and inequalities between the skilled and educated middle classes and the intellectual elites. A series of democratisation waves in the ownership of books, writing equipment, and measuring tools confirms the unprecedented levels of basic literacy and numeracy skills in the urban centres of the early modern Low Countries revealed by research on signature proficiency and age heaping. The concentration of secular books and advanced knowledge objects in the hands of a small but growing group of affluent households, on the other hand, corresponds to other research that has fixated instead on the role of upper-tail human capital in scientific, technological, and economic progress. Yet, the relatively low value estimates of libraries and scientific instruments, together with a more qualitative examination of two amateur scientists of middling background, dovetails with the hypothesis that the Dutch Scientific Revolution and Enlightenment were marked by a close interaction and mobility between craftsmen and scientists. An above-average income and enough leisure time to develop intellectual interests could be sufficient for inhabitants of Amsterdam to cross the Rubicon from consuming to (re)producing knowledge.

Authors: Normatov Bekzod ,   Tashkent State University of Law
Published: July 2024

In this article, the author analyzed the categories related to the institute of tax audit as a type of tax control. The purpose of this study is to develop proposals and conclusions based on the results of the study aimed at improving the procedure for conducting tax audits. In order to prevent the direct illegal interference of tax authorities in the activities of business entities, it is relevant to clearly establish in the Tax Code the legal basis of the type, scope, and procedure for conducting tax audits. The normative legal acts, law enforcement practice, legislation, and practice of foreign countries, as well as conceptual approaches, scientific-theoretical views, and legal categories existing in tax law, which are the organizational and legal basis of tax audits in Uzbekistan, are considered. The types of tax audits depend on the number and category of taxes, and the main problem is to ensure the discipline of revenues to the state budget without negatively affecting the work of entrepreneurs. By studying these problems through comparative analysis of national and foreign legislation using historical-legal, systemic, logical, statistical, and other methods, proposals have been developed regarding the concept of tax audit in national legislation and the types and scope of activities that can be implemented in the audit process. These proposals are used in scientific activity, lawmaking, law enforcement, interpretation of tax legislation, and improvement of national legislation.

This article analyzes the issues of mitigating punishments for legal entities in the criminal law of foreign countries. It includes the circumstances considered when sentencing legal entities, particularly mitigating circumstances, and sentencing for crimes committed intentionally, negligently, and repeatedly. It also addresses the issue of exempting legal entities from criminal liability. Additionally, the research results section of this article studied the mitigation of punishments for legal entities in the criminal law of several foreign countries, including member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States, specifically the Republic of Azerbaijan, the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia, the Republic of Chile, the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the United States of America, the Republic of Austria, the Republic of Serbia, the Kingdom of Norway, Romania, the Kingdom of Spain, and the Republic of Slovenia. Particular attention is paid to the list of mitigating and aggravating circumstances considered as general bases for sentencing, especially in the imposition of fines, which is one of the main forms of punishment for legal entities. Then, in analyzing the results of the study and the final part of the article, the final comments on the norms found in the criminal law of the countries listed above are presented.
"Foundations and consequences of deprivation of parental rights: theory and practice "

Because in the conditions of the modern world, given that new ways of life are rapidly entering our lives, it is worth noting that there are complex situations of family relations between parents and children. It can also be seen that people’s views on family and children’s rights and interests have changed radically in the last twenty years. At the same time, we understand by family law the methods of protection of rights—the compulsory implementation of the relevant rights, their restoration, and/or recognition—as well as state measures regulated by the legislation of the field aimed at influencing the guilty person and applied by the court. This means that deprivation of parental rights as a measure of family legal responsibility is carried out by depriving or restricting the rights of one person in order to protect the rights of another person by implementing a suitable method of protection or a certain system of actions. In this article, cases of deprivation of parental rights are analyzed from the point of view of national and foreign legislation. Also, on the basis of law enforcement practices and court materials, problems are thoroughly studied, and suggestions and recommendations are made for the development of national legislation.
Unpredictability and Uncertainty Create Real Complexity

в физике и во всех науках утвердилось мнение, что Complexity связано с описанием моделей в рамках нелинейных систем. Однако еще в 1948 году W. Weaver, а позже M. Gell-Mann связывали Complexity с Unpredictability. Эта позиция усилилась после получения нобелевской премии по физике за фундаментальную Uncertainty для будущего у квантовых объектов в ходе квантового эксперимента (будущее как бы «творится»). За последние 20 лет был доказан эффект Еськова–Зинченко для всех биосистем, в котором любая выборка любого параметра биосистем является уникальной и будущее для биосистемы реально заново «творится». В этом эффекте доказана полная Uncertainty и Unpredictability для всех биосистем. В итоге биосистемы каждый раз заново «творят» свои выборки, и это не динамический хаос Лоренца. Это новая неопределенность для всей науки, которая связана с Unpredictability.

in physics and other sciences, it has long been believed that complexity is linked to the description of models within non-linear systems. However, as early as 1948, W. Weaver and later M. GellMann associated complexity with unpredictability. This perspective gained traction following the Nobel Prize in Physics awarded for the fundamental uncertainty in predicting the future of quantum objects during experiments (where the future seems to be ”happening”). Over the past 20 years, the Eskov-Zinchenko effect has been demonstrated across all biosystems. According to this effect, any sample of any biosystem parameter is unique, and the future of the biosystem is genuinely ”happening” again. This finding has shown that complete uncertainty and unpredictability are inherent in all biosystems. Consequently, biosystems constantly ”re-create” their samples, which differs from Lorentz’s dynamic chaos. This introduces a new form of uncertainty in all sciences, intrinsically linked to unpredictability.
