Authors: An Yuhang , Ma Jihui , Xu Tuanwei , Cai Yunpeng , Liu Huiyong , Sun Yuting , Yan Wenfa
Published: June 2023

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a novel technology that uses fiber optics to sense and monitor vibrations. It has demonstrated immense potential for various applications, including seismology research, traffic vibration detection, structural health inspection, and lifeline engineering. DAS technology transforms long sections of fiber optic cables into a high−density array of vibration sensors, providing exceptional spatial and temporal resolution for real−time monitoring of vibrations. Obtaining high−quality vibration data using DAS requires a robust coupling between the fiber optic cable and the ground layer. The study utilized the DAS system to detect vibration signals generated by vehicles operating on the campus road of Beijing Jiaotong University. Three distinct deployment methods were employed: the uncoupled fiber on the road, the underground communication fiber optic cable ducts, and the cement−bonded fixed fiber optic cable on the road shoulder, and compared for their outcomes. Vehicle vibration signals under the three deployment methods were analyzed using an improved wavelet threshold algorithm, which was verified to be effective. The results indicate that for practical applications, the most effective deployment method is the cement−bonded fixed fiber optic cable on the road shoulder, followed by the uncoupled fiber on the road, and the underground communication fiber optic cable ducts are the least effective. This has important implications for the future development of DAS as a tool for various fields.

Published: June 2023

The direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation algorithms have a fundamental role in target bearing estimation by sensor array systems. Recently, compressive sensing (CS)-based sparse reconstruction techniques have been investigated for DoA estimation due to their superior performance relative to the conventional DoA estimation methods, for a limited number of measurement snapshots. In many underwater deployment scenarios, the acoustic sensor arrays must perform DoA estimation in the presence of several practical problems such as unknown source number, faulty sensors, low values of the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and access to a limited number of measurement snapshots. In the literature, CS-based DoA estimation has been investigated for the individual occurrence of some of these errors but the estimation under joint occurrence of these errors has not been studied. This work investigates the CS-based robust DoA estimation to account for the joint impact of faulty sensors and low SNR conditions experienced by a uniform linear array of underwater acoustic sensors. Most importantly, the proposed CS-based DoA estimation technique does not require a priori knowledge of the source order, which is replaced in the modified stopping criterion of the reconstruction algorithm by taking into account the faulty sensors and the received SNR. Using Monte Carlo techniques, the DoA estimation performance of the proposed method is comprehensively evaluated in relation to other techniques.

Published: June 2023

The development of technology, such as the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence, has significantly advanced many fields of study. Animal research is no exception, as these technologies have enabled data collection through various sensing devices. Advanced computer systems equipped with artificial intelligence capabilities can process these data, allowing researchers to identify significant behaviors related to the detection of illnesses, discerning the emotional state of the animals, and even recognizing individual animal identities. This review includes articles in the English language published between 2011 and 2022. A total of 263 articles were retrieved, and after applying inclusion criteria, only 23 were deemed eligible for analysis. Sensor fusion algorithms were categorized into three levels: Raw or low (26%), Feature or medium (39%), and Decision or high (34%). Most articles focused on posture and activity detection, and the target species were primarily cows (32%) and horses (12%) in the three levels of fusion. The accelerometer was present at all levels. The findings indicate that the study of sensor fusion applied to animals is still in its early stages and has yet to be fully explored. There is an opportunity to research the use of sensor fusion for combining movement data with biometric sensors to develop animal welfare applications. Overall, the integration of sensor fusion and machine learning algorithms can provide a more in-depth understanding of animal behavior and contribute to better animal welfare, production efficiency, and conservation efforts.
Detection Performance Analysis of Array Dielectric Dispersion Logging Based on Sensitivity Function
Authors: Cai Lianyun , Deng Shaogui , Yuan Xiyong
Published: June 2023

Dielectric logging is a critical method for exploring and developing complex oil and gas reservoirs, such as tight reservoirs, low-resistivity contrast reservoirs, and shale oil and gas reservoirs. The sensitivity function is extended to high-frequency dielectric logging in this paper. The detection characteristics of attenuation and phase shift of an array dielectric logging tool in different modes are investigated, along with the influencing factors such as resistivity and dielectric constant. The results show the following: (1) The symmetrical coil system structure makes the sensitivity distribution symmetrically distributed, and the detection range is more focused. In the same measurement mode, the depth of investigation (DOI) becomes deeper under high resistivity formation, and the sensitivity range oscillates outward when the dielectric constant becomes greater. (2) The DOIs of different frequencies and source spacings cover the radial zone between 1 cm and 15 cm. The detection range has been enlarged to include part of the invasion zones, improving the measurement data’s dependability. (3) With the increase in the dielectric constant, the curve tends to oscillate, and this behavior makes the DOI slightly shallower. Additionally, this oscillation phenomenon is obvious when the frequency, resistivity, and dielectric constant increase, particularly in high-frequency detection mode (F2, F3).
Application of Wireless Magnetic Sensors in the Urban Environment and Their Accuracy Verification

Published: June 2023

In a smart city, sensors are essential elements—the source of up-to-date traffic information. This article deals with magnetic sensors connected to wireless sensor networks (WSNs). They have a low investment cost, a long lifetime, and easy installation. However, it is still necessary to disturb the road surface locally during their installation. All road lanes to and from the city center of Žilina have sensors that send data at five-minute intervals. They send up-to-date information about the traffic flow’s intensity, speed, and composition. The LoRa network ensures the data transmission, but in the event of failure, the 4G/LTE modem realizes the backup transmission. The disadvantage of this application of sensors is their accuracy. The research task was to compare the outputs from the WSN with a traffic survey. The appropriate method for the traffic survey on the selected road profile is a video recording and speed measurement using the Sierzega radar. The results show distorted values, mainly for short intervals. The most accurate output from magnetic sensors is the number of vehicles. On the other hand, traffic flow composition and speed measurement are relatively inaccurate because it is not easy to identify vehicles based on dynamic length. Another problem with sensors is frequent communication outages, which cause an accumulation of values after the outage ends. The secondary objective of the paper is to describe the traffic sensor network and its publicly accessible database. In the end, there are several proposals for data usage.

Authors: Wawryszczuk Róża , Kardas-Cinal Ewa , Lejk Jerzy , Sokołowski Marek
Published: June 2023

Ride comfort is one of the key issues in passenger transport. Its level depends on many factors related to both environmental factors and individual human characteristics. Ensuring good travel conditions translates into higher quality transport services. This article presents a literature review, which shows that ride comfort is most often considered in the context of the impact of mechanical vibrations on the human body, while other factors are usually neglected. The aim of this study was to conduct experimental studies that take into account more than one type of ride comfort. These studies concerned metro cars in the Warsaw metro system. Three types of comfort were evaluated: vibrational, thermal, and visual, based on vibration acceleration measurements, air temperature, relative air humidity, and illuminance. The ride comfort in the vehicle bodies’ front, middle, and rear parts was tested under typical running conditions. The criteria for assessing the effect of individual physical factors on ride comfort were selected based on applicable European and international standards. The test results indicate good thermal and light environment conditions in every measuring point. The slight decrease in passenger comfort is undoubtedly due to the effects of vibrations occurring while mid journey. In tested metro cars, horizontal components have a more significant impact on reducing vibration comfort than other components.

Tramadol (TD) has been prescribed frequently in many countries for more than 40 years, but there is a risk of its misuse and trafficking. As a result, drug analysis has numerous legal and socially relevant implications, making it an essential part of modern analytical chemistry. Thus, the method for the detection of TD and its phase I and phase II metabolites in human urine has been developed and validated using a rapid and efficient approach combining liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with electrospray ionization. The sample preparation was best performed using dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction. Analysis was performed using an HyPRITY Cl8 column, and isocratic elution with methanol: water (35:65) with 0.2% formic acid was used. TD and its metabolites were detected at 264.2 (TD/M0) with a base peak at 58.2, 250.3758 (M1), 250.3124 (M2), 236.3976 (M3), 222.5361 (M4), and 236.4475 (M5) m/z peaks. TD showed linearity between 0.1 and 160 ng/mL (R2 = 0.9981). The accuracy ranged from 95.56 to 100.21% for the three concentration levels, while the between- and within-day RSD ranged from 1.58 to 3.92%. The absolute TD recovery was 96.29, 96.91, and 94.31% for the concentrations of 5, 50, and 150 ng/mL, respectively. TD’s phase I metabolites, M1–5 along with nine phase II metabolites, such as sulfo- and glucurono-conjugated metabolites, oxidative TD derivatives, and sulfo-conjugated metabolites were also identified in the urine samples. The pharmacokinetics and metabolism data given provide information for the design of possible future research disorders, evaluating drug mechanism and neurotoxicity and for the effective application screening of TD.
Whether the Establishment of National High-Tech Zones Can Improve Urban Air Pollution: Empirical Evidence from Prefecture-Level Cities in China
Authors: Hua Deya , Hu Jingfeng
Published: June 2023

Promoting the construction of national-level high-tech zones as green pioneer zones is a necessary condition for achieving high-quality development. Based on panel data from 254 prefecture-level cities from 2006 to 2018, in this paper, the difference-in-difference (DID) is used to empirically examine the influence effect of the establishment of national high-tech zones on local urban air pollution, and the spatial difference-in-difference (SDID) is used to explore its spatial spillover effect. It was found that the annual average PM2.5 concentration in cities with national high-tech zones decreased by about 1.8% compared with cities without national high-tech zones, and there was a positive spillover effect on the annual average PM2.5 concentration in nearby cities. Industrial structure upgrading and technological innovation effects are two important transmission paths for the establishment of national high-tech zones to influence urban air pollution; the heterogeneity analysis shows that the establishment of national high-tech zones has more significant implications for the improvement of air pollution in non-resource cities and less developed areas in the west, and the air pollution improvement effect of “growing” national high-tech zones is more desirable than that of “mature” national high-tech zones. Our empirical results conclude that we should continue to encourage the promotion of national high-tech zones, optimize the business environment, improve preferential policies, and design a combination of policy instruments scientifically according to local conditions in order to give full play to the effect of national high-tech zones on urban air-pollution improvement.

Solar energy’s most promising application is in water heating, followed by other solar thermal applications. In this investigation, a novel method of incorporating a phase-change material (PCM) between the annulus space of an evacuated tube and an aluminum finned heat pipe is employed. During day time, the PCM stores the excess amount of heat and releases it in order to heat the flowing water during high-demand/insufficient solar radiation. This study aims to evaluate the detailed heat transfer assessment and energetic and exergetic efficiencies of the developed PCM-integrated solar water heater in both clear and cloudy weather conditions at 20 LPH. The outcomes of the study found that the maximum useful amounts of energy collected daily for the clear and cloudy days were 10.65 MJ and 8.52 MJ, respectively, whereas temperatures of the stored water were found to be 45.2 °C and 41.4 °C on the next day at 6:00 a.m. for the corresponding days. The daily energetic and exergetic outputs of the designed system were 76.57% and 79.64%, and 2.37% and 1.38%, respectively, at fixed mass flow rate for the clear and cloudy day conditions. The overall heat transfer coefficients (UL) for both days were 0.75 and 0.72 W/m2 K, respectively. The findings show that the proposed system overcomes the issue of overheated heat pipes and can provide hot water even in cloudy/low-sunshine conditions.

Published: June 2023

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), one of the primary factors leading to global mortality, has been shown through epidemiological studies to have a relationship with short-term exposure to air pollutants; however, the association between air pollutants and the outcome of STEMI has not been well studied. The aim of this study was to estimate the impact of air pollutants on the outcomes of STEMI. Data on particulate matter <2.5 μm (PM2.5), <10 μm (PM10), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), and ozone (O3) at each of the 11 air monitoring stations in Kaohsiung City were collected between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2017. Medical records of non-trauma patients aged > 20 years who had presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with a principal diagnosis of STEMI were extracted. The primary outcome measure was in-hospital mortality. After adjusting for potential confounders and meteorological variables, we found that an increase in the interquartile range (IQR) in NO2 was associated with an elevated risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI. Moreover, there was an observed higher risk of in-hospital mortality associated with an increase in the IQR of NO2 during the warm season, specifically in lag 3 (3 days prior to the onset, OR = 3.266; 95%CI: 1.203–8.864, p = 0.02). Conversely, an IQR increase in PM10 was associated with an increased risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with STEMI in lag 3 (OR = 2.792; 95%CI: 1.115–6.993, p = 0.028) during the cold season. Our study suggests that exposure to NO2 (during the warm season) and PM10 (during the cold season) may contribute to a higher risk of poor prognosis in patients with STEMI.

Insect glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) serve critical roles in insecticides and other forms of xenobiotic chemical detoxification. The fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), is a major agricultural pest in several countries, especially Egypt. This is the first study to identify and characterize GST genes in S. frugiperda under insecticidal stress. The present work evaluated the toxicity of emamectin benzoate (EBZ) and chlorantraniliprole (CHP) against the third-instar larvae of S. frugiperda using the leaf disk method. The LC50 values of EBZ and CHP were 0.029 and 1.250 mg/L after 24 h of exposure. Moreover, we identified 31 GST genes, including 28 cytosolic and 3 microsomal SfGSTs from a transcriptome analysis and the genome data of S. frugiperda. Depending on the phylogenetic analysis, sfGSTs were divided into six classes (delta, epsilon, omega, sigma, theta, and microsomal). Furthermore, we investigated the mRNA levels of 28 GST genes using qRT-PCR under EBZ and CHP stress in the third-instar larvae of S. frugiperda. Interestingly, SfGSTe10 and SfGSTe13 stood out with the highest expression after the EBZ and CHP treatments. Finally, a molecular docking model was constructed between EBZ and CHP using the most upregulated genes (SfGSTe10 and SfGSTe13) and the least upregulated genes (SfGSTs1 and SfGSTe2) of S. frugiperda larvae. The molecular docking study showed EBZ and CHP have a high binding affinity with SfGSTe10, with docking energy values of −24.41 and −26.72 kcal/mol, respectively, and sfGSTe13, with docking energy values of −26.85 and −26.78 kcal/mol, respectively. Our findings are important for understanding the role of GSTs in S. frugiperda regarding detoxification processes for EBZ and CHP.

HIV-infected patients are at particular risk for invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). We describe cases of IPD in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) and find associated risk factors for infection and death. Methods: A retrospective case-control study, nested in a cohort, including PLWHA with and without IPD, conducted in Brazil, 2005–2020. Controls were of the same gender/age and seen at the same time/place as cases. Results: We identified 55 episodes of IPD (cases) in 45 patients and 108 controls. The incidence of IPD was 964/100,000 person-years. A total of 42 of 55 (76.4%) IPD episodes presented with pneumonia and 11 (20%) with bacteremia without a focus and 38/45 (84.4%) were hospitalized. Blood cultures were positive in 54/55 (98.2%). Liver cirrhosis and COPD were the only factors associated with IPD in PLWHA in univariate analysis, although no associated factors were found in multivariate analysis. Penicillin resistance was found in 4/45 (8.9%). Regarding antiretroviral therapy (ART), 40/45 (88.9%) cases vs. 80/102 controls (74.1%) were in use (p = 0.07). Patients with HIV and IPD had a higher CD4 count of 267 cells/mm3 compared with the control group, in which it was 140 cells/mm3 (p = 0.027). Pneumococcal vaccination was documented in 19%. Alcoholism (p = 0.018), hepatic cirrhosis (p = 0.003), and lower nadir CD4 count (p = 0.033) were associated with the risk of death in patients with IPD. In-hospital mortality among PLWHA and IPD was 21.1%, and it was associated with thrombocytopenia and hypoalbuminemia, elevated band forms, creatinine, and aspartate aminotransferase (AST). Conclusions: The incidence of IPD in PLWHA remained high despite ART. The vaccination rate was low. Liver cirrhosis was associated with IPD and death.
Translator's Voice in Harmony with the Poet's Voice Traced via Paratexts
Authors: Atay Fatma Bilge
Published: June 2023

In this study, the English translation of Kıyı Kitabı (Book of the Edge), a poetry book by Ece Temelkuran is analysed through paratexts, where the translator's and the poet's voices become obvious and a great deal about the translation in terms of both process and a product is revealed. The translator, Deniz Perin, has written a preface, which includes information about the poet, the socio-political context, and translation strategies she used including the close cooperation with the author. It is followed by an interpretation of the poems based on political and spiritual themes. Socio-political focus and gender sensitive translation decisions draw attention, which are in line with Temelkuran's articles and books. In the translation, in addition to the translator's preface, there is also a foreword formed of a poem from the poet in her native language, where the voice of the source text writer is heard apart from the translated text. This can be assumed as a cooperation, contribution and support. In the study, these issues are discussed with a sociological perspective and by tracing the voices in the paratexts the journey of two different texts, two different languages and two different authors to become "one" through translation is examined.

Exporter le vin de Narbonnaise dans l’Empire et au-delà
Authors: Laubenheimer Fanette
Published: June 2023

The article synthesizes research-work over the last thirty years on the exportation of Narbonensis wine throughout the Roman Empire and beyond. Consumption is measured through the percentage of Gaulish wine amphorae found in archaeological excavations in towns as well as in large or small areas. Furthermore subaquatic wrecks also show evidence of the wine trade and help establish the commercial routes used for its exportation. The distribution of Gaulish wine amphorae, mainly Gauloise 4, reveals the importance of Narbonensis in the production of wine as well as its appeal. The discovery of Narbonensis amphorae in Ethiopia, Sudan, Yemen and even as far as India confirms the success of certain vintages that were traded well beyond the frontiers of the Empire.

L’exploration archéologique de l’atelier de potiers d’époque romaine de l’Ermedàs (Cornellá del Terri), qui s’est achevée récemment, s’inscrit dans un programme de recherche dont l’objectif est d’étudier la dynamique de peuplement dans la région du Pla de l’Estany, au Nord de Gérone. Ce projet doit permettre de développer et d’approfondir les connaissances sur l’évolution historique de ce secteur, et notamment la question de la «romanisation » , entre la fin de l’époque ibérique et l’Antiquité tardive. Il s’appuie sur une série d’opérations de fouilles comme celle réalisée sur la villa d’époque romaine de Vilauba, mais également sur des prospections faites sur le «territoire-atelier » du Pla de l’Estany. L’un des résultats tangibles de l’exploration fine de cette micro-région consiste dans la découverte et la fouille de ce centre de production de céramiques et d’amphores, installé dans un secteur pleinement romanisé et densément occupé. L’atelier a fonctionné entre le milieu du Ier s. et la fin du IIe s. ap. J.-C. La diffusion de ses productions couvre la zone du Pla de l’Estany. L’atelier a fabriqué toute une gamme de matériaux de construction, de la vaisselle fine et commune, ainsi que des conteneurs en terre cuite, dolia et amphores. Cet article est surtout consacré à ces conteneurs, dont la production dans l’atelier fut très secondaire. Des modèles fuselés Dr. 2, ainsi que des amphores ovoïdes à fond plat proches du type Gauloise 7, ont été fabriqués par les potiers ; la découverte de deux timbres distincts, l’un sur amphore, l’autre sur tuile, permet d’identifier deux personnages, disposant de la citoyenneté romaine.

This paper introduces an inscription which was newly discovered in Combas (Gard), a village located west of Nimes. After presenting the archaeological and epigraphic data about the Combas basin – data that will make it possible to understand the context of the discovery – we will analyse the monument and its inscription. This analysis will lead to a study of the onomastics in the whole territory of the city. This will allow us to better understand the process whereby the local population introduced Latin names and, at the same time, preserved the Celtic lexicon reworked by Latin use.
Le chevalet de brodeur (?) antique d’Apt (Vaucluse) et les chevalets du monde romain

Diversement interprétés jusqu’ici, une trentaine d’objets de bois, d’os ou d’ivoire pourraient être identifiés comme des chevalets de brodeurs antiques ; celui qui a été découvert à Apt est un des mieux conservés. Nombreux en Gaule Narbonnaise et en Italie, ils ont souvent été déposés dans les tombes où ils s’ajoutent aux objets traditionnels (quenouilles, fuseaux) ; mais ils montrent qu’un goût pour des parures individuelles brodées existe au haut Empire romain.
Mola Asinaria. L’helcium et la traction attelée du moulin « pompéien ». À propos du moulin de Marcus Careius Asisa à Narbonne (Inv. 08. 2.1).
Authors: Raepsaet Georges
Published: June 2023

Le moulin a traction animale est sans doute, dans sa forme première à bras d’entraînement direct, aussi vieux que la domestication. Il est toujours actif dans les économies premières. À Rome, la mola asinaria est d’une application assez usuelle dans la mouture du grain, liée à une recherche de productivité économique en croissance sous le Principat. L’âne souffrant mille misères au moulin est un topos de la littérature grecque et latine et l’épisode des Métamorphoses d’Apulée, un morceau de bravoure, dramatisé à outrance. Mais comment fonctionne mécaniquement cette traction qui harasse et brutalise les animaux ? La présente recherche inventorie les documents écrits, iconographiques et archéologiques et tente une modélisation des harnais et de leurs fonctionnements qui s’apparentent aux harnais à la bricole bien connus pour le halage de bateaux, dans l’Antiquité comme de nos jours. La mola de Careius de Narbonne constitue un cas intéressant et original d’une traction qui intègre la pratique gallo-romaine du jouguet dans la mécanique de l’entrainement, une innovation à mettre au compte des investissements productifs assez fréquents dans le monde gallo-romain.

The coach of Vaison is well-knowed in the long historiography of the Roman carriage. He is traditionnally described as a traveling carriage for the elites, miltary officers or magistrates, perhaps a typical vehicle for the cursus publicus. However some doubts appear since the beginning of the 19th century about the authenticity of the monument discovered in an old building, the château Maraudi near Vaison, with a lot of other sculpture fragments, some really roman, other restaured, and some surely carved in the 16th century. The analytical obervation of the monument incite to many doubts. Carriage, harnessing, iconography presents a lot of problems. Finally we think this monument was made in the 16th century in a roman way by a local elite fascinated by Antiquity to promote his own social statute and honorabilty.
La dénomination des Voconces septentrionaux
Authors: Rémy Bernard
Published: June 2023

The study covers 432 individuals from the northern part of the territory of Vocontii, which corresponds to the boundaries of the city of Die (ILN Die).

The names have been resituated in relation to all the Vocontii, compared to those of Gallia Narbonensis and the western provinces. The survey is based on lapidary inscriptions, instrumentum inscriptum and literary occurrences.

Vocontii from “ outside” have been integrated. The names of Roman citizens,

peregrini, the incerti and slaves are successively studied, trying to identify indigenous names, Italian Latin names, regional Latin names and Greek names. There is a Semitic name. The relations between nomina and cognomina

are analysed, as well as the transmission of nomina from one generation to the next : the names of men and women are compared. In this city of Latin law, since Caesar or Augustus, the onomastic reveals a clear Latinity, a real integration into the Roman world. Roman citizens mainly have “ Latin-Italian” names and similarly nearly one in two peregrinus/-a.
Tools for Addressing the Skills of a Communication-Challenged Extension Agent
Authors: Pellien Tamara , Lyons Rachel
Published: June 2023

In Extension, communication challenges often become more palpable during periods of workload shift when initiatives are started. As an Extension agent and a supervisor who found ourselves in this situation, we took steps to improve communication among members of the program team by adopting four strategies: fostering a supportive environment, defining and communicating expectations, using effective communication planning tools, and maintaining program momentum and work output through supervisor and supervisee best practices. Implementing these strategies positively affected team satisfaction and work output. Other Extension professionals in the midst of "breakdowns in communication" also may find the strategies we describe useful.
Drawing Together: Using Sketchbooks to Gain Insight on a Program's Effectiveness
Authors: Alomar Richard
Published: June 2023

Drawing Together is an activity based on work in Extension and other fields that involves drawing as way of delivering information or collecting participant impressions about a program. It was used as part of the Healthy Garden and Healthy Living program in New Jersey and produced impressions about the program that were candid, reflective, and useful. A simple set of instructions can be used to collect information in sketchbooks, and the content can be analyzed in a variety of ways. This flexible activity can be easily incorporated as part of an existing Extension program or an interdisciplinary collaboration.
Bringing Farm Advisors into the Sustainability Conversation: Results from a Nitrogen Workshop in the U.S. Midwest
Authors: Doll Julie , Reimer Adam
Published: June 2023

Increasingly, farmers are looking to private sector advisors to inform their nitrogen decisions, but little is known about these important actors. We held a Sustainable Nitrogen Roundtable workshop to bring together important groups—private sector farm advisors, Extension educators, scientists, and farmers—to discuss new research and more sustainable use of nitrogen in midwestern cropping systems. We gained important insights by reaching outside academia and including private sector farm advisors as valued participants. Ninety percent of participants found that their understanding of varied viewpoints on nitrogen management improved, and an equal proportion would recommend such a workshop to a colleague.

Published: June 2023

We conducted a survey to evaluate factors influencing consultant recommendations on grazing and producer grazing practices in Nebraska. Producers who did not graze cited soil compaction, inconvenience (lack of watering and fencing), and lack of access to livestock as major reasons for not grazing. Producers who allowed grazing and consultants who recommended grazing were more likely than those who did not favor grazing to perceive that grazing increased subsequent grain yields. Most consultants and producers reported making decisions on the basis of their personal observations. Findings from the survey can be used for enhanced Extension dissemination and research activities regarding grazing of residues.
Double Play: The Need for 4-H to Partner in Youth Sports
Authors: Martin Perry , Kaufman Eric
Published: June 2023

Fewer children in the United States are playing team-based sports, and the trend is making national headlines. While there is no complete agreement as to the predominant reason for this trend, it is clear that a national conversation on this problem has begun, and Cooperative Extension holds the potential for getting kids back in the game. At its core, this conversation is about the healthful development of our children and their advancement as contributors to society. Cooperative Extension has decades of experience creating a "playbook" for youth development, and it is time to put that playbook into action.
A Web-Based Chill Hours App for Fruit Growers
Authors: Stafne Eric , Alexander Kelli
Published: June 2023

Many fruit plants have a chill hour requirement for breaking dormancy. Various models estimate chilling, but two models are commonly used for fruit crops. From 2000 to 2016, chill hour data were collected by Mississippi State University experiment station employees as well as by local fruit producers; however, the number of participants in the process dwindled over time. To address this issue, we developed a mobile-friendly web application to interface with Weather Underground data. From these data, fruit growers can assess growing conditions that affect plant physiology and prepare for events in the upcoming season. Extension professionals can introduce the app to fruit growers in their areas.
Tinkering with Technology: A Library Workshop to Support 4-H Youth Development
Authors: Hendrix Beth , Williamson Evan
Published: June 2023

When University of Idaho (UI) Extension brought the Idaho 4-H Teen Conference to UI's main campus, the conference organizers collaborated with UI librarians to organize a workshop in the library's newly established makerspace, the Making, Innovating, and Learning Laboratory (MILL). In the MILL, the students used cutting-edge technology to foster new or existing interests in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM). This article describes how Extension and 4-H youth development professionals can team with librarians to use library makerspaces to introduce 4-H high school students to STEM technologies and digital literacies that will be necessary for jobs of the future.
Building Situational Awareness of GDPR
Authors: Hirvonen Pauliina , Kari Martti J.
Published: June 2023

Because previous academic research does not comment sufficiently on how the relevant content of the European Union (EU) General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR  has been properly communicated to the organisations, or how the situational awareness (SA) of GDPR has been built in the organisations, this qualitative empirical research was regarded as a valuable approach for gathering authentic research material on the practical bases of this phenomena. The aim of this empirical case study (CS) is to develop a picture of what processes organisations use to build SA of the GDPR requirements. To guide the CS, we asked how the SA for decision-making was constructed and how it was perceived in organisations. The experiences of eight Finnish organisations showed that the organisations’ practices of building SA and their experiences with the quality and adequacy of SA differed. However, building SA proved to be a critical step for organisations in the overall process of meeting GDPR requirements. Especially the data coming from inside the organisation became very relevant in the SA process, because it supported decision makers to determine how the GDPR requirements should be implemented in the organisation. As a main contribution of this article, based on best practices shared by organisations a model of building SA was built. The proposed model is threefold and was constructed by combining the findings of an empirical CS analysis, the steps of the intelligence process, and the essential elements of the model of creating information security SA. The result is potentially beneficial for building situational understanding of any complex or ambiguous issue, especially in complex and digitalised technological areas, where combining information management with accurate and efficient decision-making is a common challenge. The results can be used by any party who is looking to build SA of an abstract issue in a complex environment.
Semiotics of Strategic Narratives of "Antichrist" in Russia’s War in Ukraine
Authors: Hotchkiss Michael
Published: June 2023

The Russian war in Ukraine which began on February 24, 2022 coincides with the ongoing schism of the Moscow Patriarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church from the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, to which the Orthodox Church of Ukraine affiliates. In this setting, spiritual and secular leaders in Russia and Ukraine have mutually utilised narratives of the Antichrist and Satan to explain Russian attacks on Ukraine, imbuing a “spiritual” dimension to the strategic communications in the conflict. This paper applies a semiotic approach to analysing the antichrist and satanic myths at play in the context of ideological “strategic narratives”, and the conflict of meanings which emerges from these competing narratives. In Russia, these ideomyths have long been utilised as ideological tools which place the nation metaphysically in perennial militant opposition to the West. However, Ukraine which is striving to leave the Russian orbit and join the West has reciprocally framed Russia and its leader in similar concepts. In conclusion, this paper argues that there is opportunity for the creation of political messaging which can frame the conflict in spiritual and moral terms that can resonate with both Western and Russian thinkers.
Complicity in Unlawful Offensive Cyber Operations Under International Law on State Responsibility
Authors: Haataja Samuli
Published: June 2023

States are increasingly engaging in cybersecurity cooperation activities and providing support to other states in offensive cyber operations. While international cooperation is generally encouraged and many cybersecurity cooperation activities are lawful, there is also a risk of being complicit in the internationally wrongful acts of other states. This paper examines the risk of complicity in offensive cyber operations under international law on aiding or assisting. It argues that, while international law in this context applies to cyber operations by states, existing uncertainties and limitations around the key components of the law on aiding or assisting are compounded by competing interpretations about how international law generally applies to state conduct in cyberspace. The paper consists of four sections. Following the introduction in section one, section two outlines some of the ways in which states are cooperating in relation to cybersecurity and offensive cyber operations. Section three examines the key elements of international law on aiding or assisting as contained within article 16 of the International Law Commission’s Articles on the Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts, and the extent to which these apply or are problematised in relation cyber operations. It demonstrates that article 16 adopts a broad approach to what constitutes ‘aiding or assisting’ and this captures various types of activities in support of cyber operations provided the aid or assistance contributes significantly to a wrongful act of another state, the accomplice state has knowledge of the factual circumstances and the illegality of the act by the principal state, and where the accomplice state and principal state are bound by the same legal obligation. Section four concludes by outlining the limits of cooperation in the cyber context and how states can mitigate the risk of complicity in violations of international law.
