The Research is motivated to see how The development of economic sector trade produce various types of goods or variations of food. But in the circulation of food in Indonesian special its instants noodles is still a matter to be considered, where  consumers are often harmed by violations committed by business actors by selling instants noodles that have expired. Global competition makes business actors justify any means to reap the benefits of one of them by distributing food expired so that they can reduce the number of losses. Writing method used in this journal writing empirical juridical method that essentially examines the law in its application in public life. The hallmark of empirical juridical research is a study that goes from the das sollen gap (theory)to the das sein (practice or reality). The result of this research is Legal protection for consumers related to the circulation of instant noodles expired in Denpasar is worth noting where many consumers not only inDenpasar city feel the loss due to food or beverage expired. With the existence of Law No. 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection, the guaranteed consumers who feel aggrieved and the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency in his duties only become a medium in coaching for business actors or producers who sell goods or foods that are expired, while in cracking down in the implementation of public health Office. Not only provide guidance, drug and food regulatory agencies can provide recommendations for follw-up by the health service, as well as the consumer community should be more careful in buying food and if they find naughty business actors in terms of selling expired foods can report to the agency drug and food superintendent.

Published: April 2021

Aim: The current study was undertaken to determine the total phenolic and flavonoid contents and to assess the antioxidant activity of two different extracts (flour and oil) of two Algerian Quercus species, Quercus ilex L. and Quercus suber L. Methods and Material: The oil extraction of the two species was achieved using the Soxhlet method. The obtained extracts were estimated for the chemical and physical constants (acidity, peroxide value, iodine value, and ultraviolet absorption indices). Total phenolic content was measured by spectrophotometry according to the Folin-Ciocalteu procedure and calculated as gallic acid equivalents (GAE). The studied extracts were submitted to an estimation of their flavonoid contents too, using aluminum chloride methods. Antioxidant ability was assessed by means of two distinct methods (DPPH• and ABTS•+). Results: The obtained results revealed that antioxidant properties, total phenolic, and total flavonoid contents differed significantly among selected species and extracts. The flour samples possessed the highest level of total phenolic contents (1101–1464 mg GAE/kg dry weight) and exhibited the highest antioxidant capacities with average values of 52.62–40.78 μmol TE g−1 dry weight and 36.19–44.50 μmol TE g−1 dry weight for DPPH and ABTS assays, respectively. Acorn oil extracts showed also remarkable antioxidant activity, up to 2.69 and 3.23 μmol TE g−1 oil (DPPH and ABTS test, respectively), even though the total phenolic contents were low (195.64–322.06 mg GAE /kg of oil). Total phenolic amounts were positively correlated with the antioxidant properties of Quercus flour and oil. Conclusions: Our study provides basic information on the presence of bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacity in acorn fruits, in order to consider their extracts as functional food ingredients and potential source of natural antioxidants. Keywords: Quercus ilex L., Quercus suber L., Total phenolic, Total flavonoid, Antioxidant activity.

LA HOSPITALIDAD COMO PATRIMONIO DEL TURISMO EN EL ESPACIO RURAL
Authors: de Fátima Fontana Rosislene , Vieira Santos Jean Carlos
Published: April 2021

La hospitalidad ha sido objeto de estudio en diversas áreas del conocimiento, especialmente en estudios relacionados con la actividad turística tanto en áreas urbanas como rurales. Teniendo en cuenta que la actividad turística se ha convertido en una fuente de ingresos complementaria o incluso principal para innumerables productores o propietarios rurales, el estudio de la hospitalidad rural contribuye significativamente a una oferta turística más genuina y cualificada en las zonas rurales. El turismo en el medio rural se basa, en muchos casos, en el patrimonio tanto material como inmaterial de este espacio. Dado que la hospitalidad está entretejida tanto en los preceptos de acoger como en el espacio acogedor, desde el inicio de la historia se entendió que era necesario un estudio para entender el aporte de la hospitalidad como patrimonio del turismo en el medio rural, ya que no se encontró ninguna investigación vinculado al tema en sí. Por tanto, este artículo es un ensayo teórico, exploratorio, bibliográfico y documental, que tiene como objetivo discutir el aporte de la hospitalidad como patrimonio del turismo en el medio rural. A partir de la prueba realizada, se pudo observar que varios autores, de diferentes áreas del conocimiento, han buscado la hospitalidad y el patrimonio rural como objeto de estudio. También se percibió cuánta hospitalidad está directamente ligada al patrimonio en el medio rural, ya sea material (como la arquitectura), o inmaterial (historia, memoria, identidad, conocimiento ...), siendo, por tanto, un aporte para el desarrollo del turismo en áreas rurales.

Published: April 2021

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a percepção de servidores públicos com deficiência em relação ao trabalho remoto, verificando se esta forma laboral favorece ou não a inclusão destas pessoas. Para isso, entrevistamos sete servidores públicos federais voluntários através do WhatsApp e, após a análise das respostas revelou-se a presença de aspectos favoráveis e desfavoráveis sobre o trabalho remoto, demonstrando que esta modalidade laboral gera sentimentos que têm forte relação com a personalidade e as especificidades de cada tipo de deficiência. Concluímos que o trabalho remoto pode ser considerado um fator de inclusão e que também proporciona autossutentabilidade desde que aplicado criteriosamente.  Sem o devido cuidado na sua adoção, entretanto, esta modalidade laboral pode significar um retrocesso na luta da pessoa com deficiência, em função dos paradigmas culturais e do preconceito ainda fortemente arraigados na nossa sociedade.
Identifying the spatiotemporal variations of ozone formation regimes across China from 2005 to 2019 based on polynomial simulation and causality analysis
Authors: Li Ruiyuan , Xu Miaoqing , Li Manchun , Chen Ziyue , Gao Bingbo , Zhao Na , Yao Qi
Published: April 2021

Abstract. Ozone formation regimes are closely related to the ratio of VOCs to NOx. Different ranges of HCHO/NO2 indicate three formation regimes, including VOCs-limited, transitional and NOx-limited regimes. Due to the unstable interactions between a diversity of precursors, the range of transitional regime, which plays a key role in identifying ozone formation regimes, remains unclear. To overcome the uncertainties from single models and the lack of reference data, we employed two models, polynomial simulation and Convergent Cross Mapping (CCM), to identify the ranges of HCHO/NO2 across China based on ground observations and remote sensing datasets. The ranges of transitional regime estimated by polynomial simulation and CCM were [1.0, 1.9] and [1.0, 1.8]. Since 2013, ozone formation regime has changed to the transitional and NOx-limited regime all over China, indicating ozone concentrations across China were mainly controlled by NOx. However, despite the NO2 concentrations, HCHO concentrations continuously exert a positive influence on ozone concentrations under transitional and NOx-limited regimes. Under the circumstance of national NOx-reduction policies, the increase of VOCs became the major driver for the soaring ozone pollution across China. For an effective management of ozone pollution across China, the emission-reduction of VOCs and NOx should be equally considered.
What is Adiabatic Fraction in Cumulus Clouds: High-Resolution Simulations with Passive Tracer
Authors: Eytan Eshkol , Koren Ilan , Altaratz Orit , Pinsky Mark , Khain Alexander
Published: April 2021

Abstract. The process of mixing in warm convective clouds and its effects on microphysics, is crucial for an accurate description of cloud fields, weather, and climate. Still, it remains an open question in the field of cloud physics. Adiabatic regions in the cloud could be considered as non-mixed areas and therefore serve as an important reference to mixing. Therefore, the adiabatic fraction (AF) is an important parameter that estimates the mixing level in the cloud in a simple way. Here, we test different methods of AF calculations using high-resolution (10 m) simulations of isolated warm Cumulus clouds. The calculated AFs are compared with a normalized concentration of a passive tracer, which is a measure of dilution by mixing. This comparison enables us to examine how well the AF parameter can determine mixing effects, and to estimate the accuracy of different approaches used to calculate it. The sensitivity of the calculated AF to the choice of different equations, vertical profiles, cloud base height, and its linearity with height are all tested. Moreover, the use of a detailed spectral bin microphysics scheme demonstrates that the accuracy of the saturation adjustment assumption depends on aerosol concentration, and leads to an underestimation of AF in pristine environments.
Aerosol radiative impact during the summer 2019 heatwave produced partly by an inter-continental Saharan dust outbreak – Part 1: Short-wave dust direct radiative effect

Published: April 2021

Abstract. The short-wave (SW) direct radiative effect (DRE) during the summer 2019 heatwave produced partly by a moderate, long-lasting Saharan dust outbreak over
Europe is analysed in this study. Two European sites (periods) are considered: Barcelona, Spain (23–30 June), and Leipzig, Germany (29 and
30 June), 1350 km apart from each other. Major data are obtained from AERONET and polarised Micro-Pulse Lidar (P-MPL) observations. Modelling is used to describe the
different dust pathways, as observed at both sites. The coarse dust (Dc) and fine dust (Df) components (with total dust, DD = Dc + Df) are
identified in the profiles of the total particle backscatter coefficient using the POLIPHON (POlarisation LIdar PHOtometer Networking) method in synergy with P-MPL measurements. This
information is used to calculate the relative mass loading and the centre-of-mass height, as well as the contribution of each dust mode to the total dust DRE. Several aspects of the ageing of dust are put forward. The mean dust optical depth and its Df/DD ratios are,
respectively, 0.153 and 24 % in Barcelona and 0.039 and 38 % in Leipzig; this Df increase in Leipzig is attributed to a longer dust
transport path in comparison to Barcelona. The dust produced a cooling effect on the surface with a mean daily DRE of −9.1 and
−2.5 W m−2, respectively, in Barcelona and Leipzig, but the Df/DD DRE ratio is larger for Leipzig (52 %) than for Barcelona
(37 %). Cooling is also observed at the top of the atmosphere (TOA), although less intense than on the surface. However, the Df/DD DRE ratio
at the TOA is even higher (45 % and 60 %, respectively, in Barcelona and Leipzig) than on the surface. Despite the predominance of Dc
particles under dusty conditions, the SW radiative impact of Df particles can be comparable to, even higher than, that induced by the Dc ones. In
particular, the Df/DD DRE ratio in Barcelona increases by +2.4 % d−1 (surface) and +2.9 % d−1 (TOA) during the dusty
period. This study is completed by a second paper about the long-wave and net radiative effects. These results are especially relevant for the next
ESA EarthCARE mission (planned in 2022) as it is devoted to aerosol–cloud–radiation interaction research.

Published: April 2021

Abstract. We examined the evolution of intermittent hypoxia off the
Pearl River estuary based on three cruise legs conducted in July 2018: one
during severe hypoxic conditions before the passage of a typhoon and two
post-typhoon legs showing destruction of the hypoxia and its reinstatement.
The lowest ever recorded regional dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration of 3.5 µmol kg−1 (∼ 0.1 mg L−1) was observed in bottom
waters during leg 1, with an ∼ 660 km2 area experiencing
hypoxic conditions (DO < 63 µmol kg−1). Hypoxia was
completely destroyed by the typhoon passage but was quickly restored
∼ 6 d later, resulting primarily from high biochemical
oxygen consumption in bottom waters that averaged 14.6 ± 4.8 µmol O2 kg−1 d−1. The shoreward intrusion of offshore subsurface
waters contributed to an additional 8.6 ± 1.7 % of oxygen loss
during the reinstatement of hypoxia. Freshwater inputs suppressed
wind-driven turbulent mixing, stabilizing the water column and facilitating
the hypoxia formation. The rapid reinstatement of summer hypoxia has a
shorter timescale than the water residence time, which is however comparable
with that of its initial disturbance from frequent tropical cyclones that
occur throughout the wet season. This has important implications for
better understanding the intermittent nature of hypoxia and predicting
coastal hypoxia in a changing climate.
Using the Després and Lagoutière (1999) antidiffusive transport scheme: a promising and novel method against excessive vertical diffusion in chemistry-transport models
Authors: Mailler Sylvain , Pennel Romain , Menut Laurent , Lachâtre Mathieu
Published: April 2021

Abstract. The potential of the antidiffusive transport scheme proposed by
Després and Lagoutière (1999) for resolving vertical transport in chemistry-transport
models is investigated in an idealized framework with very encouraging
results. We show that, compared to classical higher-order schemes, the
Després and Lagoutière (1999) scheme reduces numerical diffusion and improves accuracy
in idealized cases that are typical of atmospheric transport of tracers in
chemistry-transport models. The increase in accuracy and the reduction in
diffusion are substantial when, and only when, vertical resolution is
insufficient to properly resolve vertical gradients, which is very frequent in
chemistry-transport models. Therefore, we think that this scheme is an
extremely promising solution for reducing numerical diffusion in
chemistry-transport models.
Local-scale uncertainty of seasonal mean and extreme values of in-situ snow depth and snow fall measurements
Authors: Buchmann Moritz , Begert Michael , Brönnimann Stefan , Marty Christoph
Published: April 2021

Abstract. Measurements of snow depth and snowfall on the daily scale can vary strongly over short distances. However, it is not clear if there is a seasonal dependence in these variations and how they impact common snow climate indicators based on mean values, as well as estimated return levels of extreme events based on maximum values. To analyse the impacts of local-scale variations we compiled a unique set of parallel snow measurements from the Swiss Alps consisting of 30 station pairs with up to 77 years of parallel data. Station pairs are mostly located in the same villages (or within 3 km horizontal and 150 m vertical distances). Investigated snow climate indicators include average snow depth, maximum snow depth, sum of new snow, days with snow on the ground, days with snowfall as well as snow onset and disappearance dates, which are calculated for various seasons (December to February (DFJ), November to April (NDJFMA), and March to April (MA)). We computed relative and absolute error metrics for all these indicators at each station pair to demonstrate the potential uncertainty. We found the largest relative inter-pair differences for all indicators in spring (MA) and the smallest in DJF. Furthermore, there is hardly any difference between DJF and NDJFMA which show median uncertainties of less than 5 % for all indicators. Local-scale uncertainty ranges between less than 24 % (DJF) and less than 43 % (MA) for all indicators and 75 % of all station pairs. Highest (lowest) percentage of station pairs with uncertainty less than 15 % is observed for days with snow on the ground with 90 % (average snow depth, 30 %). Median differences of snow disappearance dates are rather small (three days) and similar to the ones found for snow onset dates (two days). An analysis of potential sunshine duration could not explain the higher uncertainties in spring. To analyse the impact of local-scale variations on the estimation of extreme events, 50-year return levels were quantified for maximum snow depth and maximum 3-day new snow sum, which are often used for prevention measures. The found return levels are within each other’s 95 % confidence intervals for all (but two) station pairs, revealing no striking differences. The findings serve as an important basis for our understanding of uncertainties of commonly used snow indicators and extremal indices. Knowledge about such uncertainties in combination with break-detection methods is the groundwork in view of any homogenization efforts regarding snow time series.
Childhood Adversity Linked to Neurological Circuitry Changes and Mental Health Disorders. Narrative Review
Authors: Shand Alexander
Published: April 2021

Children who experience adversity have increased risk for psychiatric disorders. However, little is known about the exact alterations that occur in the neural circuitry and how that information may help lead to early diagnosis or preventive medicine. Research has shown that there are specific changes in neurological functional connectivity in the brain associated with childhood adversity. This review will examine recent papers that have investigated the correlation between these changes in brain connectivity and specific psychiatric disorders. Understanding the changes may help with preventive medicine by ensuring clinicians monitor patients with more severe history of adversity who are therefore at higher risk for developing a psychiatric disorder. This paper will also address potential recommendations that could be implemented in the future as research offers more conclusive evidence. Research is now beginning to address the questions of whether these changes can be attenuated, either during childhood or as adults.

Background: Folk medicine refers to traditional healing practices anchored on cultural beliefs of body physiology and health preservation. Reflective of indigenous heritage, it fosters a better understanding of health and disease, healthcare systems, and biocultural adaptation. In the Philippines, Quiapo is a well-known site for folk medicine services, cultural diversity, religious practices, and economic activities.

Methods: This study utilized a phenomenological approach to comprehend the lived experiences of health-seeking individuals and the meaning behind their acquisition of folk medicine products. Using convenience sampling, seven participants acquiring folk medicine products in Quiapo on the day of data collection were approached and interviewed on separate instances. The collected data subsequently underwent thematic analysis.

Results: Analysis revealed three emergent themes: health-seeking behavior, sources of knowledge, and folk medicine utilization. Health-seeking behavior was linked with the participants’ purpose of going to Quiapo, reasons for utilizing folk medicine, experiences in using folk medicine, and beliefs associated with the product bought. Sources of knowledge tackled the participants’ sources of information about Quiapo and its products. Folk medicine utilization relates to the type of product bought, its perceived medicinal use, and its history of usage.

Conclusion: Folk medicine is perceived to be effective alleviating health concerns. The acquisition of such products is attributed to satisfaction from prior experience, distrust in the current healthcare system, family tradition, and intention to supplement existing medical treatment. This study provides health professionals a better understanding of patients who patronize folk medicine, subsequently aiding them in providing a holistic approach to treatment.

The effect of jaw position on perceptual and acoustic characteristics of speech
Authors:   Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, Solomon Nancy , Makashay Matthew , Munson Benjamin ,   University of Minnesota
Published: April 2021

Bite blocks are used to stabilize the jaw and to isolate tongue and lip movements from that of the mandible during speech and nonspeech activities. Ten normally speaking young adults produced sentences with an unconstrained jaw and with unilateral placement of 2-mm and 5-mm bite blocks. Six listeners rated sentences spoken without either bite block as the most natural sounding. Spectral characteristics of /s/, /J/ and /t/ (sibilant frication and stop bursts) differed significantly with than without bite blocks, such that mean spectral energy decreased, and variation and skew of spectral energy increased. Spectral kurtosis did not change for the group, but 2 participants exhibited highly kurtotic /s/ spectra without a bite block that normalized with bite blocks. The second formant frequency for the high vowel /i/ was lower with bite blocks; there was no systematic difference in F2 slope for diphthongs. Segmental and suprasegmental timing of speech articulation was not affected significantly by these small bite blocks. This study provides support for using small bite blocks to isolate the tongue from the jaw without large effects on speech, but cautions that speech is likely to sound less natural than when produced with an unconstrained jaw.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the influence of an acute bout of high-intensity resistance exercise on measures of cognitive function. Ten men (Mean ± SD: age = 24.4 ± 3.2 yrs; body mass = 85.7 ± 11.8 kg; height = 1.78 ± 0.08 m; 1 repetition maximum (1RM) = 139.0 ± 24.1 kg) gave informed consent and performed a high-intensity 6 sets of 10 repetitions of barbell back squat exercise at 80% 1RM with 2 minutes rest between sets. The Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics (ANAM) was completed to assess various cognitive domains during the familiarization period, immediately before, and immediately after the high-intensity resistance exercise bout. The repeated measures ANOVAs for throughput scores (r·m-1) demonstrated significant mean differences for the Mathematical Processing task (MTH; p < 0.001, η2p = 0.625) where post hoc pairwise comparisons demonstrated that the post-fatigue throughput (32.0 ± 8.8 r·m-1) was significantly greater than the pre-fatigue (23.8 ± 7.4 r·m-1, p = 0.003, d = 1.01) and the familiarization throughput (26.4 ± 5.3 r·m-1, p = 0.024, d = 0.77). The Coded Substitution-Delay task also demonstrated significant mean differences (CDD; p = 0.027, η2p = 0.394) with post hoc pairwise comparisons demonstrating that the post-fatigue throughput (49.3 ± 14.4 r·m-1) was significantly less than the pre-fatigue throughput (63.2 ± 9.6 r·m-1, p = 0.011, d = 1.14). The repeated measures ANOVAs for reaction time (ms) demonstrated significant mean differences for MTH (p < 0.001, η2p = 0.624) where post hoc pairwise comparisons demonstrated that the post-fatigue reaction time (1885.2 ± 582.8 ms) was significantly less than the pre-fatigue (2518.2 ± 884.8 ms, p = 0.005, d = 0.85) and familiarization (2253.7 ± 567.6 ms, p = 0.009, d = 0.64) reaction times. The Go/No-Go task demonstrated significant mean differences (GNG; p = 0.031, η2p = 0.320) with post hoc pairwise comparisons demonstrating that the post-fatigue (285.9 ± 16.3 ms) was significantly less than the pre-fatigue (298.5 ± 12.1 ms, p = 0.006, d = 0.88) reaction times. High-intensity resistance exercise may elicit domain-specific influences on cognitive function, characterized by the facilitation of simple cognitive tasks and impairments of complex cognitive tasks.

Rice is a rice-producing food crop which now plays an important role in economic life in Indonesia. Namely rice as a staple food is very difficult to replace by other staples. Among them are corn, tubers, sago and other carbohydrate sources. So that the existence of rice is now a top priority for the community in meeting the needs of carbohydrate intake that can be filling and is a source of primary carbohydrates that are easily replaced into an energy source. Rice as a staple food is consumed by approximately 90% of the total population in Indonesia for daily essential food (Saragih,2001). How to plant with the jajar legowo system has the advantage that the plants are on the edge so that optimal sunshine can cause plant productivity to be high, facilitate weed control and pests / diseases, use of fertilizer more effectively and the availability of empty space for regulating water channel circulation on land (Sirrapa, 2011). This research was conducted using Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) method, which consisted of two factors and each factor consisting of 3 levels repeated 3 times, namely: J1: Conventional,J2: Jajar Legowo 2: 1,J3: Jajar Legowo 4: 1. Factor II: Varieties with 3 levels, V1: Situ Bagendit, V2: Ciherang,V3: IR-64. Of the two factors 9 combinations of treatments were obtained and repeated 3 times. Data obtained from observations were calculated by analysis of variance with the Fisher test (-F test at the level of 5% and 1%), if there were significant differences, it would be followed by the Smallest Significant Difference test (LSD 5%).
