Authors: Mittermayr D. , Roland W. , Fischer J.
Published: February 2025

The global focus on environmental sustainability has intensified the need for innovative plastic waste management solutions, especially in the food packaging industry. This study explores liquid state decontamination processes of recyclates produced by post-consumer waste recycling of polystyrene yogurt cups and their effects on the material properties of the recycled material. For this purpose, different decontamination processes based on a twin-screw extruder with vacuum degassing and an industrial-scale recycling machine were applied. Tests such as tensile testing, Charpy impact testing, melt flow rate (MFR) measurement, plate-plate rheometry, high-pressure capillary rheometry (HCR), and differential thermal analysis (DTA) were conducted to assess the mechanical and thermo-rheological properties as well as the oxidation induction temperature as an indicator of polymer degradation. The findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the achievable properties of polystyrene from post-consumer waste and reveal insights into the different process-induced degradation processes of the recycled polystyrene.

Advances in science are leading to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the functioning of the human body. Until May 2023, betacoronavirus B, SARS-CoV-2, was a global public health emergency. Evidence suggests that many patients with COVID-19 suffer from multiple symptoms that persist beyond the acute event for several years. This phenomenon is called post-COVID syndrome (PCS) or long COVID. This article provides some clinically important scientific data on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of neurological disorders caused by SARS-CoV-2 in the post-COVID period. It demonstrates the importance of a thorough history of the disease development with a search for a possible connection between current symptoms and the “common” ARI that preceded them. The importance of an integrated approach to the diagnosis and treatment of symptoms of long COVID is shown.

Objective. To study the frequency of blood transfusions during open adenomectomy and TURP, as well as to evaluate the degree of blood loss and the frequency of red blood cell transfusions in a prospective randomized clinical trial. Materials and methods. The frequency of open operations and TURP in the 4th Minsk City Clinical Hospital for 2016–2018. The frequency of blood transfusions was studied in a retrospective study, and the degree of blood loss and the frequency of red blood cell transfusions were determined in a prospective randomized clinical trial. Results. The rate of open adenomectomies was 33.6 %, and TURP – 66.4 %. The rate of red blood cell transfusion after TURP was 2.8 % (21 patients), after open adenomectomy – 7.6 % (33 patients) (χ 2 = 15.2, p = 0.001)). In a randomized study, the frequency of blood transfusions in the main group was 2.2 % (2 patients), in the comparison group – 12.6 % (11 patients) (F = 0.199, p = 0.007). Total blood loss after adenomectomy from the open approach was 500 (373–600) ml in patients from the comparison group, 240 (124–340) ml in patients from the main group (U = 881.0, p = 0.001). Conclusion. The frequency of open operations for large volumes of BPH has remained high in recent years – 30.4–42.2 %. The total blood loss after open adenomectomy is 2.1 times lower, and the frequency of blood transfusions is 5.5 times lower with intraoperative use of the Gamastat, which undoubtedly indicates its good hemostatic effect.

Published: February 2025

Abstract. Increasing outburst flood hazards from melting glaciers threaten Himalayan communities but are difficult to assess. On 16 August 2024, a catastrophic Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) occurred unexpectedly in the Bhotekoshi River Valley, in the Mt. Everest region of Nepal. Using this disaster as an illustration, we demonstrate that combining new and legacy satellite remote sensing technologies for lake water level, turbidity, and extent can detect potential GLOF hazards and help identify these risks.
Assimilation of GNSS Zenith Delays and Tropospheric Gradients: A Sensitivity Study utilizing sparse and dense station networks

Published: February 2025

Abstract. The assimilation of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) zenith total delays (ZTDs) into numerical weather models improves weather forecasts. In addition, the GNSS tropospheric gradient (TG) estimates provide valuable insight into the moisture distribution in the lower troposphere. In this study, we utilize a newly developed forward operator for TGs to investigate the sensitivity effects of incorporating TGs into the Weather Research and Forecasting model at varying station network densities. We assimilated ZTD and TGs from sparse and dense station networks (0.5 and 1-degree). Through this study, we found that the improvement in the humidity field with the assimilation of ZTD and TGs from the sparse station network (1-degree resolution) is comparable to the improvement achieved by assimilating ZTD only from the dense station network (0.5-degree resolution). These results encourage the assimilation of TGs alongside ZTDs in operational weather forecasting agencies, especially in regions with few GNSS stations. Conversely, assimilating TGs alongside ZTDs from sparse GNSS networks can be a cost-effective way to enhance the accuracy of the model fields and subsequent forecast quality.
Loss of accumulation zone exposes dark ice and drives increased ablation at Weißseespitze, Austria

Published: February 2025

Abstract. In recent years, firn and summer snow cover has decreased on Alpine glaciers, exposing larger areas of ice at higher elevations. This reduces albedo and leads to increased melt. To understand mass loss in former accumulation areas under conditions of rapid glacier recession, it is important to constrain the possible range of ice albedo in newly firn free regions, the duration of ice exposure, and the albedo-ablation connection. We combine data from an on-ice weather station (3492 m.a.s.l.), ablation stakes, and remote sensing derived albedo to provide an overview of albedo and ablation in the summit region of Weißseespitze, the high-point of Gepatschferner (Austria), from 2018 to 2024. Before 2022, low albedo (<0.4) occurred on 3 to 8 days per year. In 2022, 37 days of low albedo conditions were recorded and albedo dropped below previously observed minima of around 0.30 to values similar to those of the surrounding rock. Albedo remained very low in 2023 and 2024. Ice ablation at the stakes generally increased with the duration of ice exposure, reaching up to -1.6 m w.e. in high-melt years. Sensitivity experiments indicate that a five day period of very low albedo conditions (<0.20) results in 31 % more modeled surface melt if it occurs in late July compared to early September, highlighting temporal variability in the impact of ice exposure. The unique Weißseespitze dataset provides a starting point for further studies linking causes and effects of albedo changes in former accumulation zones.
Automatic detection of floating instream large wood in videos using deep learning
Authors: Aarnink Janbert , Beucler Tom , Vuaridel Marceline , Ruiz-Villanueva Virginia
Published: February 2025

Abstract. Instream large wood (i.e. downed trees, branches, and roots larger than 1m in length and 10 cm in diameter) performs essential geomorphological and ecological functions that support the health of river ecosystems. However, even though its transport during floods may pose risks, it is rarely observed and remains poorly understood. This paper presents a novel approach for detecting floating pieces of instream wood in videos. The approach uses a convolutional neural network to automatically detect wood. We sampled data to represent different wood transport conditions, combining 20 datasets to yield thousands of instream wood images. We designed multiple scenarios using different data subsets with and without data augmentation. We analysed the contribution of each scenario to the effectiveness of the model using k-fold cross-validation. The mean average precision of the model varies between 35 % and 93 % and is influenced by the quality of the data that the model detects. When using a 418-pixel input image resolution, the model detects wood with an overall mean average precision of 67 %. Improvements in mean average precision of up to 23 % could be achieved in some instances, and increasing the input resolution raised the weighted mean average precision to 74 %. We demonstrate that detection performance on a specific dataset is not solely determined by the complexity of the network or the training data. Therefore, the findings of this paper could be used when designing a custom wood detection network. With the growing availability of flood-related videos featuring wood uploaded to the internet, this methodology facilitates the quantification of wood transport across a wide variety of data sources.
Simulating the Tone River eastward diversion project in Japan carried out 4 centuries ago
Authors: Trošelj Joško , Hanasaki Naota
Published: February 2025

Abstract. The Tone River is the largest river in Japan, flowing from the Kanto Plain westward to the Pacific Ocean. The river originally flowed southward, entering Tokyo Bay, but the Tone River eastward diversion project (TREDP) in the 17th century and many later projects changed the flow route to that of today. The gradual process of eastward diversion has been extensively studied from the historical viewpoint, revealing that the initial project in the 17th century was principally intended to establish a stable navigation route. However, no scholars have yet proven this hypothesis via hydrological modeling. We used the H08 global hydrological model to reconstruct historical flow direction maps at a 60 arcsec spatial resolution with a 1 d temporal resolution. We hypothesized that the historical claims could be numerically verified using a relatively simple simulation. First, we confirmed that our modeling framework reasonably reproduced the present river flows by adding two present-day bifurcation functions. Next, using the reconstructed historical maps, we quantified low flows (20th percentile) in the 17th century and confirmed that the Tone River diversion aided navigation because it connected areas that increased low flows. Finally, the validity of our historical simulation was proven by contrasting the distribution of simulated low flow rates with the flows at the historical river ports that lie furthest upstream. We show that it is possible to bridge two different disciplines, history, and numerical hydrological modeling to obtain a better understanding of human–water interactions. One limitation is that we only reconstructed historical land maps in the present study; the meteorological forcing inputs employed were identical to those of the 20th century. The historical inputs are not known.
Formation and fate of freshwater on an ice floe in the Central Arctic

Published: February 2025

Abstract. The melt of snow and sea ice during the Arctic summer is a significant source of relatively fresh meltwater. The fate of this freshwater, whether in surface melt ponds or thin layers underneath the ice and in leads, impacts atmosphere–ice–ocean interactions and their subsequent coupled evolution. Here, we combine analyses of datasets from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition (June–July 2020) for a process study on the formation and fate of sea ice freshwater on ice floes in the Central Arctic. Our freshwater budget analyses suggest that a relatively high fraction (58 %) is derived from surface melt. Additionally, the contribution from stored precipitation (snowmelt) outweighs by 5 times the input from in situ summer precipitation (rain). The magnitude and rate of local meltwater production are remarkably similar to those observed on the prior Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean (SHEBA) campaign, where the cumulative summer freshwater production totaled around 1 m during both. A relatively small fraction (10 %) of freshwater from melt remains in ponds, which is higher on more deformed second-year ice (SYI) compared to first-year ice (FYI) later in the summer. Most meltwater drains laterally and vertically, with vertical drainage enabling storage of freshwater internally in the ice by freshening brine channels. In the upper ocean, freshwater can accumulate in transient meltwater layers on the order of 0.1 to 1 m thick in leads and under the ice. The presence of such layers substantially impacts the coupled system by reducing bottom melt and allowing false bottom growth; reducing heat, nutrient, and gas exchange; and influencing ecosystem productivity. Regardless, the majority fraction of freshwater from melt is inferred to be ultimately incorporated into the upper ocean (75 %) or stored internally in the ice (14 %). Terms such as the annual sea ice freshwater production and meltwater storage in ponds could be used in future work as diagnostics for global climate and process models. For example, the range of values from the CESM2 climate model roughly encapsulate the observed total freshwater production, while storage in melt ponds is underestimated by about 50 %, suggesting pond drainage terms as a key process for investigation.

Background: The word ‘Puberty’ is derived from the Latin word “Puberty” which means ‘age of womanhood’. It refers to the physical rather than behavioral changes which occur when the individual becomes sexually mature and is capable of producing off springs. Puberty is that time when the child turns sexual and the mind struggles to catch up. Until they are sexually mature children are known as pubescent or pubescent children. Puberty primarily refers to the maturational and hormonal and growth process that occurs when the reproductive organs begin to function and the secondary sexual characteristics develop puberty is a time during which the child moves through a series of significant natural, healthy changes. These physical, psychological and emotional changes signal child is moving from childhood to adolescent.18 Objectives: The present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Structured Teaching Programmes on knowledge regarding physiological changes during puberty among early adolescent in selected high school, Satna and find out the association between pre-test level of knowledge regarding physiological changes during puberty among early adolescent girls with their selected demographic variable.

Authors: Preema Dsa, Anouja Mohanty
Published: February 2025

This study examines the comparative dynamics of workload and compensation among Anganwadi workers and government primary teachers in rural Bengaluru. Employing a sample size of 130 respondents (65 Anganwadi workers and 65 primary teachers), the research analyzes disparities in workload, pay, and job satisfaction using statistical techniques like independent t-tests, two-way ANOVA, and correlation analysis. Findings reveal that Anganwadi workers face significantly higher workloads but receive substantially lower compensation and benefits compared to primary teachers. Moreover, workload negatively impacts job satisfaction in both groups, with Anganwadi workers experiencing a more pronounced effect. The study underscores the critical need for policy interventions to bridge these gaps and improve the financial and professional well-being of Anganwadi workers.

POU5F1, a key transcription factor, plays a pivotal role in maintaining pluripotency and cellular differentiation, making it of immense interest in developmental biology and animal husbandry. In the present study, we employ state-of-the-art CRIS-PR ribonucleoprotein (RNP) electroporation of zygotes (CRIS-PR-EZ) methodology to precisely manipulate the POU5F1 gene in buffalo zygotes for exploring the phenotypic and functional outcomes of embryonic development. Through a combination of strategies, we found that electroporation of buffalo zygote at 20V/mm, five pulses, 3 msec at 10 h post-insemination (hpi) resulted in greater membrane permeability and higher editing efficiency (88.71%) without affecting embryonic developmental potential. We targeted the buffalo POU5F1 gene using the abovementioned parameters, which caused nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and led to complete knockout (KO) of the POU5F1 gene. We analyzed the mutation rates and mosaic mutations using tracking of Indels by decomposition (TIDE) software. We observed no difference in the embryonic developmental competence at cleavage or blastocyst rate between control, POU5F1-KO, and electroporated control embryos. We determined the expression of SOX2, Nanog, and GATA2 in POU5F1 intact (Control) and POU5F1-KO confirmed blastocyst to better understand the impact of POU5F1-KO on other pluripotent genes. POU5F1-KO significantly (p<0.05) altered SOX2, Nanog, and GATA2 expression in blastocyst- stage embryos. In conclusion, direct electroporation of the CRISPR RNP component to the earlier stage of the zygote efficiently created mutations in the POU5F1 gene. We developed an easy and straightforward protocol for gene editing, which could serve as a valuable method for studying the functional genomics of the buffalo embryos.

Whey is a by-product derived from dairy production and is often discarded, generating environmental contamination. However, it still contains proteins, carbohydrates, and minerals, among others, that could be used in by-products. Among them, fermented drinks might be obtained from the whey mixed with juices and fruit pulp. The objective of this work was to carry out physical-chemical and sensory analysis of juices made with buffalo yogurt whey. The mixtures used 90 mL of whey, 300 mL of fruit juice, and 120 g of sugar in 1 L of filtered water. Mixtures were fermented for 48 h at room temperature, filtered, bottled, and refrigerated. Nineteen samples were grouped into G1: citrus fruits (grapefruit, orange, tangerine) and G2: tropical fruits (passion fruit, pineapple, and mango). Measurements of pH, sugar concentration (°Brix), and density (ρ) were made at the beginning and after fermentation. Sensory analysis was conducted with a non-expert tasting panel of 30 adults between 20 and 35 years old (13 men and 17 women). The juice was evaluated by a 9-point hedonic test, recording the degree of acceptability considering smell, color, and taste, from 1 to 4: I dislike it (“extremely”, “a lot”, “moderately”, “slightly”); 5 “I don’t like it, nor do I dislike it”; and from 6 to 9: I like it (“slightly”, “moderately”, “a lot” and “extremely”). The results were statistically compared by Tuckey with a significance level of 5%. The values on day 0 for G1 were: pH 3.97; ρ 1050.8; ºBrix 12.85 and G2: pH 3.69; ρ 1039.44; °Brix 10.26. At 48 h for G1, they were: pH 3.68; ρ 1056.7; ºBrix 14.52 and G2: pH 3.54; ρ 1042.55; °Brix 10.92. An increase in density and °Brix was observed at 48 h in both groups with significant differences. The sensory evaluation of the juices was good, resulting in G1: 7.23 in men and 7.15 in women. Regarding G2, it was 6.56 for men and 7.49 for women, with a significant difference. 56.6 and 60% of consumers rated 7 to 9 for both groups. The drinks had good levels of acceptance. Among the opinions expressed as positive, the “fine gasified” and “soft color” stand out. Although further studies are needed, whey would be a good raw material for producing naturally fermented juices.

What animals feed can affect buffalo milk fatty acids (FA)composition. Therefore, the diet could increase the content ofpolyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), omega 3 (n-3), and con-jugated linoleic acid (CLA), improving the nutritional value ofbuffalo milk. The objective of this work was to evaluate the ef-fect of diet and season on the composition of buffalo milk fattyacids. Over a year, 120 samples of bulk buffalo milk were takenfrom ten farms. Animals were fed with 10 different isoenergeticand isoproteic diets. The basic diet of each group was sup-plemented with different components representing about 3% in dry matter of total ration. The basic diet (B) comprised maizesilages, alfalfa hay, corn grain, and soybean as concentrates.The second diet was supplemented with linseed (L), brewer’sspent grain (T), alfalfa and mixed hay (H), corn grain (M), andgrass (G) as additional constituents. Other farms included bothgrass and cottonseed (CG), grass and linseed (GL), or grassand brewer’s spent grain (TG) and grass, linseed and brew-er’s spent grain (LTG). Fatty acids in buffalo milk were quan-tified after extraction and methylation by GC/FID. Data wasanalyzed through a bifactorial model with interaction (seasonx diet), using GLM procedure and the statement “contrast” bySAS Software to highlight the effect of the diet constituents.Seasonal effects were evident in milk FA. Spring and summersignificantly increase the saturated fatty acids (SFA) and de-crease the PUFA by about 10%. Diets containing linseed (L,LG, LTG) showed an increase (p<0.001) in PUFA n-3 (0.63 vs.0.38 g/100g of fat) compared to the others. While milk from theCG and TG diets showed an increase (p<0.001) in PUFA n-6,the differences were also evident in the n6/n3 ratio (3.1 vs. 5.2,p<0.001). Diets with T and M showed an increase (p<0.002) inSFA and a decrease (p<0.001) in CLA (-20%). Instead, the Gdiet allowed a higher (p<0.0004) content of CLA (0.90 vs 0.74g/100g of fat), highlighting the positive contribution of grass onruminal activity. Contrarily, the addition of linseed and cotton-seed to the G diet caused a decrease (p<0.001) in CLA andbranch fatty acids due to the excessive presence of PUFA. Thefeeds supplied attended all metabolic pathways, and in particu-lar, linseed and grass could enrich the milk with functional com-pounds. However, the right balance must be found between theconstituents to maximize their positive contribution.

desastre natural de los últimos tiempos en la Comunitat Valenciana que ha dejado 224
personas fallecidas y 3 desaparecidas hasta estos momentos1
. Asimismo, las
consecuencias sociales y económicas de esta catástrofe son inmensas y las primeras
estimaciones realizadas, aunque es imposible calcular con exactitud su alcance, han
puesto de manifiesto el impacto en la actividad económica (producción agrícola,
industria y comercio, consumo, turismo, …), en las infraestructuras (carreteras, vías
férreas, centros educativos y sanitarios, infraestructuras hidráulicas y eléctricas,
agrícolas y cultivos), en los activos (viviendas, comercios, industrias, vehículos, …), en el
mercado laboral (pérdidas de empleo temporal o permanente) y en otros ámbitos como
el fiscal y financiero.
