The Machinery of Creation. Oulipo Poetry, Copyright & Rules of Constraint
Authors: Bowrey Kathy , Chan Janet
Published: March 2023

This article explores the double burden of creative regulation – the aesthetic restrictions artists choose and their interaction with copyright rules, using the example of oulipo, a constraint-based creative practice. Part One explains the Oulipo movement. Oulipo technique is then demonstrated in new poems by artist and poet Janet Bi Li Chan, based on existing works, Franny Choi’s Turing Test and Tracy K Smith’s Sci-FI, applying word substitution (N + 7), erasure or blackout technique, and remixing. Part Two applies a copyright law reading to the new poems. We show how legislative frameworks measure all creators – regardless of artistic self identity and process – as if they were humanist authors. But in application tests also produce far more surprises than might be expected if law is conceived of as rule-based constraint. Part Three applies Oulipo techniques to key articles of the Berne Convention that permit artistic licence: Art 9 Right of Reproduction; Art 10 Certain Free Uses of Works; and Art 10bis Further Possible Free Uses of Works. These new Berne poems highlight the prescriptive face copyright law presents to creators. We argue it is the emotional resonance of copyright, rather than its technicality, that primarily impacts creative practice. We conclude that law reproduces an idealised imaginary of a humanist author to measure creative transgression and this confinement means that copyright is unable to properly converse with artists or poets. Law suppresses the cyborg in all creation.

Published: March 2023

Introduction: Care integration needs to take place on different levels, including that of infrastructure and especially data infrastructure. Only integrated data allow for policy making, care planning, research, and evaluation that spans across different sectors of care and support.
Methods: In the course of an EU-funded reform initiative on integrated care, the Estonian government and various agencies have developed a concept for an integrated data centre, bringing together information from social, medical, and vocational support services. The concept was developed in co-production with many stakeholders. A test data set from all covered sectors, including the pseudonymised data of 17,945 citizens of an Estonian municipality, was created and analysed as a proof-of-concept exercise.
Results: The co-production approach resulted in a set of requirements and use cases as well as a specification of premises, processes, and data flows for the data centre. The analysis of the test dataset showed the principal feasibility of the dataset for the intended purposes.
Conclusion: The concept development phase showed that an integrated data centre for Estonia is feasible per se and helped to specify concrete actions required for its realisation. Strategic and financial decisions from the Estonian Reform Steering Committee are now needed to create the data centre.

Hücre üretim teknolojilerindeki iyileştirmelere rağmen, modüllerin enerji dönüştürme oranlarının hâlâ istenen düzeyde olmaması fotovoltaik sistemlerin en önemli olumsuzluklarından biridir. Bu amaçla bir fotovoltaik sistemden daha yüksek enerji eldesi için güneş takip sistemleri kullanılmaktadır. Literatürde bu alanda yapılmış birçok çalışma olmasına rağmen, bu çalışmaların büyük bir kısmında genellikle takip sisteminin yazılım ve devre kısmına odaklanılmakta veya oluşturulan küçük boyutlu prototipler üzerinde gerçekleştirilen kısa vadeli test sonuçlarının sunulmasıyla yetinilmektedir. Fotovoltaik sistemlerin uzun yıllar boyunca farklı atmosferik değişimlere maruz kalarak çalıştığı göz önüne alındığında, bu sistemlerle beraber kullanılan güneş takip sistemlerinin farklı hava durumları altında uzun vadeli testlere tabi tutulmaları en doğru yaklaşım olacaktır. Bu amaçla bu çalışmada, tek eksenli bir güneş takip sistemi tasarlanmış ve üretilmiştir. Uygulamanın sürücü devresi ve mekanik aksamıyla ile ilgili tüm detaylar açık bir şekilde belirtilmiştir. Güneş izleyici sistem sayesinde günlük olarak elde edilen verim artışı, ilgili güne ait radyasyon ortalaması ve güneşlenme süresine göre değişmektedir. Sonuçlara göre güneş izleyici sistemin yıllık bazda %30.84 verim artışı sağladığı kaydedilmiştir.

Published: March 2023

Introduction. Brain health and active longevity are affected by a number of stroke risk factors. We should identify their relative impact on the main subtypes of ischemic stroke (IS) in middle-aged and senior women to consider prevention and management strategies.
Objective. To assess prevalence of isolated and combined factors that may contribute with a high probability to development of the various IS subtypes in women aged 4574 years.
Materials and methods. The study included 348 female patients aged 4574 years including 145 inpatients with carotid IS (main group) from Neurology Department 2, the Research Center of Neurology, and 203 women with cognitive disorders due to the chronic cerebral ischemia (controls). To assess the impact of various risk factors on the main IS subtypes, we generated multivariate predictive models using logistic regression and the Wald test.
Results. Predictive modeling of atherothrombotic IS demonstrated that type 2 diabetes mellitus increases IS risk by over 5 times (odds ratio [OR] = 5.961; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10232.257; р = 0.038); internal carotid artery stenosis, by 7 times (OR = 7.187; 95% CI 1.82728.273; р = 0.005); history of transient ischemic attacks (TIA), by 61 times (OR = 61.442; 95% CI 7.673491.998; р 0.001); excessive alcohol intake, by 49 times (OR = 49,382; 95% CI 4.557535.121; р = 0.001); and HTN severity, by 4 times (OR = 4.445; 95% CI 2.3318.476; р 0.001). Predictive modeling of cardioembolic IS demonstrated that post-infarction cardiosclerosis increases IS risk by over 118 times (OR = 118.025; 95% CI 5.2102673.796; р = 0.003), atrial fibrillation, by 108 times (OR = 108.493; 95% CI 24.312484.159; р 0.001), history of TIA, by over 71 times (OR = 71.558; 95% CI 7.945644.535; р 0.001); and HTN severity, by over 3 times (OR = 3.957; 95% CI 2.0697.566; р 0.001). Predictive modeling of lacunar IS demonstrated that type 2 diabetes mellitus increases IS risk by 8 times (OR = 8.324; 95% CI 1.92336.041; р = 0.005), history of IS, by over 8 times (OR = 8.99; 95% CI 1.77245.598; р = 0.008); and HTN severity, by 7 times (OR = 7.139; 95% CI 3.49114.599; р 0.001).
Conclusion. We identified a number of risk factors that may contribute to the development of the main IS subtypes in middle-aged and senior women.

Carotid atherosclerosis is a significant cause of cerebrovascular disease. However, with many candidate markers, precise assessment of its development and progression risks is still limited. This paper reviews state-of-the-art concepts of microRNA as an atherogenesis biomarker throughout various stages including endothelial dysfunction, cholesterol/lipid metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress, angiogenesis regulation, and proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells. Based on the available literature, we have described most significant microRNAs for each stage characterized in brief. We have visualized interactions between microRNAs and validated target genes with MIENTURNET and suggest and justify a set of microRNAs for further pilot studies of carotid atherosclerosis.

Introduction. Central nervous system is one of the main targets in patients with HIV infection. Neurological complications in AIDS are primarily caused by opportunistic brain infections including toxoplasmosis as the most common one. Patients with cerebral toxoplasmosis are often hospitalized with diagnosed strokes, tumors, or encephalitis. At that, their HIV status may be unknown and their state severity often does not allow conducting the range of required examinations.
Materials and methods. We have described our experience in management of 6 patients admitted to the neurosurgery department with single toxoplasmosis foci and diagnosed brain tumors.
Results. HIV infection was initially known in 3 patients only. In 2 compensated patients, the diagnosis was confirmed via Toxoplasma IgG blood test. In 2 individuals, negative serological Toxoplasma reactions were followed by neuronavigationally controlled biopsies. A patient with an extensive perifocal edema and, as a result, dislocated midline structures underwent decompressive craniectomy and mass removal. One female patient, with an unclear diagnosis, was operated for a suspected brain tumor. After additional assessments (including 4 histologies to confirm cerebral toxoplasmosis), all the patients were transferred to the infectious disease hospital for specific treatment.

Summarizing is the practice of condensing a body of material into a more manageable size while retaining all of the key data elements and the intended meaning. Automatic text summarizing systems can now quickly retrieve summary phrases from input documents. However, it has a number of shortcomings, such as duplication, insufficient coverage, incorrect extraction of key lines, and poor sentence coherence. In this study, a new concept of summarizer technique is proposed using the Python spacy package. It extracts the most significant information from the text. The scoring system is also used to compute the score for the words in order to determine the word frequency. The findings show that the proposed method completes the summary process faster than the current algorithm. An online tool called the text to summary converter aids in material summarizing. This programmer will give us a summary of the data that we upload. The primary goal is to accurately summaries the data entered. The most crucial sentences will be removed before the unnecessary ones.

This article aims to examine how adopting the M-Learning technique affects students' intrinsic motivation and ability to learn new material. All in all, 283 higher education students of the University of Education. Twice they were evaluated to see how they fared. Ten multiple-choice questions were utilized for the evaluation, all of which were administered using the Socrative mobile apps. An evaluation form was utilized to get students' feedback on the experiment. According to responses from respondents all of the University of Education, M-Learning creates a more positive classroom atmosphere (71 percent), boosts attendance rates (80 percent), and aids in the retention of material studied (72 percent). All groups' aggregate performance improved as they used the app more often (initial-final evaluation: 5.8 vs. 7.2 points). The results imply that the M-Learning approach is a valuable instrument for enhancing the teaching-learning process and is helpful in the academic setting as a facilitator of knowledge absorption.
Equatorial Rossby waves and their impacts on monsoon region deep convection
Authors: Roundy Paul
Published: March 2023

Convectively coupled equatorial Rossby waves are the dominant mode of westward-moving subseasonal convection in the tropics. A portion of the variance in these waves has been shown to associate with the tropical intraseasonal oscillation, along with a process often mediated by the extratropical Rossby wave response to tropical convection that yields Rossby waves breaking back into the tropical atmosphere. The potential vorticity anomalies driven by Rossby wave breaking become the equatorial Rossby waves. This work creates an index of planetary scale equatorial Rossby waves and applies the method of seasonally varying regression slope coefficients to diagnose their preferred associations with tropical and extratropical circulation features. Results confirm the already known association between these waves and the extratropical atmosphere and they reveal a pattern of westward-and northward-moving anomalies of tropical convection over the Indian Ocean and Southern Asia during the Northern Hemisphere summer. These patterns are associated with a cycle of suppression and enhancement of convection in which negative anomalies of outgoing longwave radiation are found to be 3-times as likely during the wet than the dry phases of the waves.
Bay of Bengal upper-ocean stratification and the sub-seasonal variability in convection: Role of rivers in a coupled ocean-atmosphere model
Authors: Srivastava Ankur , ARao Suryachandra , Ghosh Subimal
Published: March 2023

The Bay of Bengal (BoB) receives a large amount of freshwater from rains and rivers, resulting in large upper-ocean stratification due to the freshening effect. This salinity stratification has been theorized to impact sea-surface temperature (SST) and convection on intra-seasonal time scales by affecting the ocean mixed layer and the barrier layer. This article aims to quantify the impact of salinity stratification on the sub-seasonal variability in SST and convection by using in-situ ocean observations and coupled model experiments. It is shown that monsoon intra-seasonal oscillations (MISOs) exhibit varied levels of intra-seasonal variability in SST and rainfall based on the underlying ocean conditions. The largest intra-seasonal variability in SST does not cause the largest convection variability in the north-western BoB. Instead, moderate variability in SST and rainfall associated with MISOs co-occur with deep mixed layer and thick barrier layer conditions. Realistic representation of river freshwater fluxes in a coupled ocean-atmosphere model leads to improved intra-seasonal SST and rainfall variability. Thick barrier layers in the north-western Bay attenuates the entrainment cooling of the mixed layer, and the high mixed layer heat content provides conducive oceanic conditions for the genesis of monsoon low-pressure systems (LPS), thereby affecting rainfall over India. This study has important implications for operation forecasting using coupled models.
High-Resolution simulations of Heavy-Rain-Producing Mesoscale Convective Systems using Cloud-Resolving models
Authors: Tsuboki Kazuhisa
Published: March 2023

In East Asia, heavy-rain-producing mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) often develop in monsoon systems and cause severe floods and landslides. To understand and forecast these high-resolution simulations using cloud-resolving models (CRMs) are necessary. Tsuboki and Luo (2020) reviewed recent studies of MCSs using CRMs and remarked that data assimilation (DA) of radar observations to CRMs is promising for the improvement of simulation and numerical weather prediction (NWP) of MCSs. The DA of radar observations to CRMs is very effective for short-range NWP of MCSs using CRMs. Various convective-scale DAs have been developed to improve the NWP of heavy-rain-producing MCSs. Following Tsuboki and Luo (2020), this paper introduces recent studies on MCS using CRMs, phased array weather radars and DAs of radar observations.
Global monsoon: Concept and dynamic response to anthropogenic warming
Authors: Wang Bin , Jin Chunhan , Liu Jian
Published: March 2023

Monsoon has been studied for centuries, yet only recently have regional monsoons been recognized as a global system. This paper begins with a review of the concept of Global Monsoon and related debating issues. We argue that GM drives annual cycles of Hadley circulation, Intertropical Convergence Zone, and subtropical high and dry climate regions. Land monsoon rainfall (LMR) provides water resources for about 70% of the world’s population. Here we review the climate sensitivity of global and regional LMR to anthropogenic warming projected by models participating in phase six of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6), focusing on critical physical processes responsible for projected changes. In theory, regional mean LMR changes can be approximated by the changes in the product of the mid-tropospheric ascent and 850-hPa specific humidity, plus moderate contribution from evaporation. The greenhouse gases (GHGs) forcing increases moisture content but stabilizes the atmosphere; the two thermodynamic effects offset each other, resulting in a moderate thermodynamic impact on LMR. The GHGs-induced horizontally differential warming results in robust ‘‘northern hemisphere (NH)-warmer than- southern hemisphere (SH)’’, ‘‘land-warmer-than-ocean’’, and an El Nino–like warming pattern. The enhanced NH–SH thermal contrast will increase NH monsoon rainfall and reduce SH monsoon rainfall. The enhanced land–ocean thermal contrast will increase monsoon rainfall over the Asian–northern African monsoon regions. The projected eastern Pacific warming will reduce the North American monsoon. The Inter-model spread analysis suggests that the GHGs-induced circulation changes (dynamic effects) are primarily responsible for the regional differences. The last section discusses conceivable ways forward.
A multi-model ensemble tool for predicting districts level monsoon rainfall and extreme rainfall events over India
Authors: Bushair MT , Pattanaik DR , Mohapatra M
Published: March 2023

The southwest (SW) monsoon season from June to September (JJAS) is the major rainfall period over most parts of Indian regions. Accurate rainfall forecast is one of the most crucial and least predictable parameters of the numerical weather prediction (NWP) models because of its uneven distribution and patterns over the globe. During the last decade many studies have been carried out using different NWP models to predict rainfall incidents, and it is found that the forecast skill has been improved considerably. In the present study, a multi-model ensemble (MME) based tool has been developed for the prediction of SW monsoon rainfall at the district level over India for five days. The precipitation forecasts from five operational NWP modelling systems, viz., (i) Global Forecast System (GFS) and          (ii) Global Ensemble Forecasting System (GEFS) running at India Meteorological Department, (iii) Global Forecast System model running at National Centre for Environment Prediction (NCEP), (iv) Unified Model running at National Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting (NCMRWF) and (v) Global Spectral Model (GSM) running at Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) have been used for developing the MME forecasts for SW monsoon 2021. The prediction skill of the MME and the individual model forecast is evaluated against observed district rainfall.  The district-level heavy rainfall forecast from individual models and MME is also evaluated against the observed rainfall events useful for warning services. Different verification scores like Correlation Coefficient (CC), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Bias, Probability of Detection (POD), False Alarm Ratio (FAR), Equitable Treat Score (ETS), Critical Success Index (CSI), etc. are calculated for the verification purpose. The different verification score shows that MME rainfall forecast has performed well than the individual models in different spatial domains and temporal scales. The CC between observed rainfall and day 1 MME forecast is 0.58, whereas GFS, GEFS, NCEP, NCUM and JMA are showing 0.43, 0.47, 0.49, 0.49 and 0.46 respectively. The RMSE observed for MME, GFS, GEFS, NCEP, NCUM and JMA are 12.7, 15.2, 14.1, 14.3, 16.6 and 14.1 mm/day respectively when compared with IMD observed rainfall. The inter-comparison of the model forecasts reveal that the MME method can generate skillful district rainfall forecast over India for operational use during the monsoon season.

There have been major advances in the last few decades in our understanding of heavy rainfall during monsoon season due to substantial progress in both observation and numerical modelling of monsoon. All these resulted in more accurate forecast of heavy rainfall in short to medium range, (upto five days) with 40% improvement in accuracy of heavy rainfall forecast in recent five years (2018-2022) as compared to previous five years. However, improvement of forecast and warning skill is not sufficient to minimize damage to lives and property. It is essential to extend to hazard forecast systems (hazard models) and then to impact and risk assessment with stakeholder interaction for risk based warning (RBW) and response action to protect lives and livelihoods
 
Considering all these, India Meteorological Department (IMD) has introduced impact based forecast (IBF) for heavy rainfall at meteorological sub-division level since July 2013 and at district and city scale in August, 2019 in its short to medium range forecasts and nowcasts indicating the likely impact of the heavy rainfall in different sectors and required response actions. Thereafter the IBF of heavy rainfall has undergone several changes over the years. Currently, the IBF being implemented by IMD includes all the four components, viz., (i) meteorological hazards, (ii) geophysical hazards, (iii) geospatial applications and (iv) socio-economic conditions and it utilises a web-GIS based decision support system (DSS). In this study we have reviewed various approaches and stages of development of IBF of heavy rainfall in India. The success of IBF of heavy rainfall will enhance the management of critical resources like agriculture, water & power and support urban and disaster management sectors among others while reducing loss of life and property.

Some commercial products on the market contain this active ingredient, and the objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of 3 available marbofloxacin-based products based on the SISAAB (single injection and short-term antibiotic) concept with regard to the performance and health parameters of pigs in the nursery, growth and termination phases with clinical manifestations of respiratory disease (RD). A total of 78 animals with clinical manifestations of RD from a total of 1726 pigs were used. The animals that had RD symptoms were weighed, identified and randomly subjected to 3 treatments: T1 - Forcyl® (n = 27); T2 - Marbox® (n = 25); T3 - Resolutor® (n = 26). All treatments corresponded to a single intramuscular dose of 8 mg of marbofloxacin per kg of live weight. After treatment, clinical signs of cough and depression, water consumption, rectal temperature, performance parameters, lung lesions and the pneumonia index of the animals were evaluated. The animals that received T1 and T3 maintained a mean rectal temperature of 39.38 °C 2 days after administration. In contrast, animals in the group that received T2 had significantly higher temperatures (p = 0.068) in this period (39.53 °C). There was a greater decrease in temperature (p = 0.042) in the 24 hours after drug administration in animals that received T1 (-0.573 °C). Regarding the other performance parameters, clinical signs of cough and depression, water consumption, lung injury and the pneumonia index, no differences were observed between the marbofloxacin-based products evaluated (p > 0.05). All marbofloxacin-based products were effective in reducing the clinical signs of RD and promoting animal performance and health. However, T1 was more effective in reducing the rectal temperature of the animals.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the values ??of moral education in the distribution of inheritance (Study of QS. An Nisa' Verses 11 and 12). This research is library research (library research), namely a study of books, interpretations, and journals that have something to do with the discussion of research. Thus the data obtained from the results of the literature is described as it is then analyzed. This study uses several approaches including; Approachnormative andPhilosophical, the normative approach is used to strengthen such propositions related to research, while the philosophical approach is used to understand religious teachings, with the intention that the wisdom, nature, or interpretation of a verse can be understood easily. The results of this study are moral values ??in the distribution of inheritance, including; Tawaduk, Obedience, Trust, Tawhid, and Taqwa. Moral education is not spared from all forms of our ritual worship of the creator. All actions will be measured, by the Qur'an and al-Hadith whether they are good or not. Then, is it included in the realm of easy (good) morals, or even included in mazuma (bad) morals? Even in the hadith, there are several maqolah from the scholars who say, the peak of worship is, noble morals.

Published: March 2023

Teaching in the 21st century era is more dynamic than before. Notably, the emergence of technology in education has radically transformed the pedagogical practices of teachers in the 21st century. Because of these changes, new challenges for teachers in schools and colleges also emerge. However, the study was aimed at investigating the contemporary challenges teachers encounter in higher education in the 21st century. The study further explored the possible solutions to the challenges. The study employed qualitative case study design in order to thoroughly understand the in-depth perception of teachers towards the topic under investigation. The data were collected using a semi–structured interview which was administered telephonically. Additionally, a sample of 5 teachers from 5 departments in the selected University was drawn based on convenience as it was time for Covid-19 which restricted movement and physical interaction. Overall, findings from the study suggest that teachers in the 21st-century era are confronted with numerous challenges which adversely affect the teaching–learning process. The challenges can be broadly summarised as technological, adjustment and resource-based challenges. In order to address these challenges, the participants recommended that there should be adequate research, provision of CPD courses, proper technical support on how to integrate technology in the teaching–learning processes.
The Top-Up Programme: Two decades of widening participation provides evidence of impact on student success against a background of socio-economic disadvantage
Authors: Browitt Alison , Croll Neil , Hedge-Holmes Kelly , Henry Kirstin

This paper highlights a successful pre-entry programme whilst providing an example of evaluation research methodology. The key contribution made is the power of scale. As the programme has been running since 1999 with the same aims, academic focus and structures, it provides the unique
extent of longitudinal data available for study. Comparative analysis to determine student success outcomes utilised the methodology described by Walker et al (2004), for performance in Year 1 of a single cohort, and was expanded to include statistical analysis of student continuation and
degree completion. The intervention group, who participated in the widening participation programme before commencing an undergraduate degree at one higher education institution, is more socio-economically disadvantaged than the comparison groups and yet, we demonstrated no significant difference
in outcomes at cohort level. We show that those from the most socioeconomically disadvantaged postcodes were slightly more likely to perform well in Year 1, continue and complete their degree. We conclude the programme engages with and provides the most benefit for the widening access target
group identified by the Scottish Government.
Learning together: Widening participation research with, for and by young researchers
Authors: Houghton Ann-Marie , Armstrong Jo
Published: March 2023

This innovative practice account draws on the researchers' experience of conducting the 'Young Researcher Project' commissioned by the Cumbria Collaborative Outreach Programme, 'Hello Future', which aims to widen participation in higher education. The account focuses on the lessons
learned during the project that others may find valuable in conducting similar work. The project involved enabling a small group of young learners to engage in a range of qualitative research techniques including interviewing. Using a reflective process influenced by Brookfield's four lenses
-self, student, peer and literature informed feedback- we explore three principles which were central to the project: facilitated participation, flexibility and responsiveness, and interprofessional collaboration. We propose that enabling the young learners to have a voice was dependent on
the researchers providing structure and training even though this may, by definition, run counter to the notion of 'participatory' research. In other words, participation on the part of the young learners required support and scaffolding provided by the research team. The account highlights
the pragmatism of this approach in the context of completing a project within a short timeframe and to the maximal benefit of different groups, not least the young learners who learned new skills and reported increased levels of self-confidence.
'What Is? What If? What Next?' Why institutions must urgently identify, support, and celebrate their student-parents – and imagining a world in which they do so
Authors: Todd Andrea
Published: March 2023

Students who have dependent children are 'relatively invisible in the policy and physical spaces of universities' (Moreau and Kerner, 2015: p.4), are 'ignored or only briefly mentioned' in governmental communications (Moreau, 2014: p2), and are impossible to track in terms of entrance
to, performance at, or attrition rate from, higher education. There is no obligation on institutions in England and Wales to compile data on their students' family circumstances (Moreau, 2014), and as such student-parents at such institutions can remain unidentified and unsupported throughout
their higher education journey. With the aim of adding urgency to the calls to take the first step in supporting student parents, this paper uses Hopkins' (Hopkins, R., 2019; 2022a) 'What is? What if? What next?' method to stimulate conversation about this overlooked cohort, and to visualise
the ways in which studentparents could be supported and celebrated by their institutions if they were visible participants in higher education. The article underlines why the higher education sector should collect data on student-parents ('What is'); presents a vision of the university of
the future which collects data from, and thus is able to support and celebrate, its student-parent population ('What if'); and urges higher education institutions, in the absence of a national requirement to do so, to compile data on an institutional level which in turn facilitates the retention,
progression, achievement and satisfaction of this committed and motivated cohort ('What next').

For the territory of the international «Manas» airport for the cold season over a 5-year period, the relative frequency of the types of synoptic processes and the positions of the baric field at heights was analyzed, and the relationship between these characteristics was considered. The analysis was carried out based on the journal of substantiation of synoptic processes of the Bishkek aviation meteorological center and maps of baric topography with a frequency of every 12 hours, which made it possible to expand the sample, clarify the initial data and improve the quality of the study results. A total of 911 days and, accordingly, 1822 synoptic processes and positions of the baric field at heights were analyzed. Types have been identified that have a predominant frequency of occurrence during the cold period of the year, from October to March, which largely determine the weather and climate conditions here.

It is known that the state and development of both the biosphere and human society directly depends on the state of water resources. Among the problems facing humanity in recent decades, experts and politicians put the problem of water in the first place. One of these phenomena is undoubtedly flooding. Floods can sometimes be a source of prosperity, but they can also pose a serious threat to many large settlements. Today, in the course of scientific and technological development, humanity has learned to deal with river disasters to a certain extent, regulate the flow of important rivers, control changes in the water level in the river, etc. b. An important issue today is a comprehensive assessment of possible risks of river flooding. In particular, this applies to the territory of developing countries, where the network of monitoring stations is not yet sufficiently developed, and river systems are poorly studied. The territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan cannot boast of a large number of large rivers and lakes. However, every spring in some areas of the republic there are often problems with flooding. The article considers the consequences of floods typical for some areas of the East Kazakhstan region. The characteristic of the state of the river basin in the spring-summer period and the general river network is given. A brief overview of floods in the study area that have occurred over the past 10 years was conducted. The analysis of the flooding of the river basin with the provision of satellite images is given. Based on the generalization of foreign and domestic experience, engineering and non-engineering measures to reduce the risk of flooding were proposed.
