Long-term trends in the distribution of ocean chlorophyll
Authors: Zhai Dongran , Beaulieu Claudie , Kudela Raphael M.
Published: October 2023

The concentration of chlorophyll-a (CHL) is an important proxy for
autotrophic biomass and primary production in the ocean. Quantifying
trends and variability in CHL are essential to understanding how marine
ecosystems are affected by climate change. Previous analyses have
focused on assessing trends in CHL mean, but little is known about
observed changes in CHL extremes and variance. Here we apply a quantile
regression model to detect trends in CHL distribution over the period of
1997-2022 for several quantiles. We find that the magnitude of trends in
upper quantiles of global CHL (>90th) are larger than those
in lower quantiles (≤50th) and in the mean, suggesting a growing
asymmetry in CHL distribution. On a regional scale, trends in different
quantiles are statistically significant at high latitude, equatorial,
and oligotrophic regions. Assessing changes in CHL distribution has
potential to yield a more comprehensive understanding of climate change
impacts on CHL.

The Congolese upwelling system (CUS), located along the West African
coast north of the CongoRiver, is one of the most productive and least studied systems in the
Gulf of Guinea. The Sea SurfaceTemperature minimum in the CUS occurs in austral winter, when the winds
are weak and notparticularly favorable to coastal upwelling. Here, for the first time,
we use a high-resolution regionalocean model to identify the key atmospheric and oceanic processes that
control the seasonal evolutionof the mixed-layer temperature in a 1°-wide coastal band from 6°S to
4°S. The model is in goodagreement with observations on seasonal timescales, and in particular
reproduces the signature of thesurface upwelling during the austral winter, the shallow mixed-layer due
to salinity stratification, andthe signature of coastal wave propagation. The analysis of the
mixed-layer heat budget reveals acompetition between warming by air-sea fluxes, dominated by the solar
flux throughout the year, andcooling by vertical mixing at the base of the mixed-layer, as other
tendency terms remain weak. Theseasonal cooling is induced by vertical mixing, but is not controlled by
the local wind. A subsurfaceanalysis shows that remotely-forced coastal trapped waves raise the
thermocline from April toAugust, which strengthens the vertical temperature gradient at the base
of the mixed-layer and leadsto the mixing-induced seasonal cooling in the Congolese upwelling
system.
Why are Mountaintops Cold? The Transition of Surface Lapse Rate on Dry Planets
Authors: Fan Bowen , Jansen Malte Friedrich , Mischna Michael A , Kite Edwin Stephen
Published: October 2023

Understanding surface temperature is important for habitability. Recent
work on Mars has found that the dependence of surface temperature on
elevation (surface lapse rate) converges to zero in the limit of a thin
$\mathrm{CO_2}$ atmosphere. However, the mechanisms
that control the surface lapse rate are still not fully understood. It
remains unclear how the surface lapse rate depends on both greenhouse
effect and surface pressure. Here, we use climate models to study when
and why “mountaintops are cold”. We find the tropical surface lapse
rate increases with the greenhouse effect and with surface pressure. The
greenhouse effect dominates the surface lapse rate transition and is
robust across latitudes. The pressure effect is important at low
latitudes in moderately opaque ($\tau
\sim 0.1$) atmospheres. A simple model provides insights
into the mechanisms of the transition. Our results suggest that
topographic cold-trapping may be important for the climate of arid
planets.
Global analysis of surface ocean CO2 fugacity and air-sea fluxes with low latency
Authors: Chau Thi-Tuyet-Trang , Chevallier Frederic , Gehlen Marion
Published: October 2023

The Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT) of CO2 fugacity (fCO2) observations
is a key resource supporting annual assessments of CO2 uptake by the
ocean and its side effects on the marine ecosystem. SOCAT data are
usually released with a lag of up to 1.5 years which hampers timely
quantification of recent variations of carbon fluxes between the Earth
System components, not only with the ocean. This study uses a
statistical ensemble approach to analyse fCO2 with a latency of one
month only based on the previous SOCAT release and a series of
predictors. A retrospective prediction for the years 2021-2022 is made
to test the model skill, followed by the generation of fCO2 and fluxes
from January to August in 2023. Results indicate a modest degradation of
the model skill in prediction mode and open the possibility to provide
robust information about marine carbonate system variables with low
latency.

The hoof diseases of cattle can be managed surgically under intravenous regional anesthesia (IVRA). For routine induction of IVRA, a tourniquet is placed circumferentially at the metacarpus/metatarsus. In the present study, hoof diseases of cattle were corrected using a modified IVRA technique. The cattle with hoof ailments were randomly divided into two groups and a tourniquet was placed just distal to the dew claws instead of at the metacarpus/metatarsus in order to decrease the dose of anesthetic. In group I lidocaine (2mg/kg) and in group II a mixture of lidocaine and ketamine (2mg/kg+1.5mg/kg) was injected into the axial digital vein to induce distal intravenous regional anesthesia (DIVRA). The heart rate, respiration rate, systolic and diastolic pressure were unaffected in both groups. Oxygen saturation was significantly (P<0.05) lower between 5 and 60 minutes in group I and between 15and 40 minutes in group II animals. The sensory and motor block onset time was shorter, and the sensory and motor block recovery time was longer in group II animals as compared to group I animals. It was concluded that the DIVRA technique using lidocaine alone and lidocaine admixed with ketamine are suitable for hoof examination and surgery.

Published: October 2023

Optic nerve head drusen are acellular calcified deposits in the optic nerve head reported in humans. A six year old, male, Rottweiler dog with a history of respiratory distress and epistaxis for the previous two months was anaesthetised and a computed tomographic scan of the head was performed. The axial view of the computed tomography scan with a slice thickness of 1mm was viewed in a soft tissue window (380x40 HU). There was an incidental discovery of a characteristic discrete round hyper dense area in the optic nerve head region in both eyes during the routine computed tomographic scan. The Hounsfield Unit of the optic nerve head drusen in the right eye measured 91 HU, of 2 mm2 and in the left eye 131 HU of 1 mm2 confirming the diagnosis of optic nerve head drusen. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first report of optic nerve head drusen in a dog.

The primary focus of the current study was to determine the potential benefits of supplementing sheep diet with white button mushrooms (WBM) in terms of growth, health and the kinetics of systemic CD4+ CD8+ memory T lymphocytes in lambs. Forty-five female lambs (Lika breed) were divided into three groups: A – the control group fed on a free-range pasture for the 222 days of the experiment, while groups B and C were housed in a separate facility for 42 days and fed either a commercial feed mixture (FM) or a FM supplemented with 15% of freshly prepared WBM, respectively, and ad libitum forage. For the remaining 180 days of the experiment, both groups (B and C) of lambs were kept free-range and fed pasture only. The lambs were monitored daily starting on Day 0 (or 90 days of age) before the treatments, weighed and blood sampled on Days 0, 21, 42 and 222, and were clinically observed for the incidence/severity of diarrhea and/or other signs of disease. In addition to morbidity, mortality was also monitored, and dead lambs were examined for gross pathology changes. The lambs fed FM supplemented with WBM (group C) had significantly higher body weight gain (P<0.05) on Days 42 and 222. They were neither diarrheic nor had any mortality cases throughout the experiment. Also, these lambs had a significantly increased (P<0.05) proportion of CD4+CD8+ T cells on Days 42 and 222. The data obtained supported our assumption of the efficacy of dietary WBM in the immunostimulation of CD4+CD8+ memory T lymphocytes in lambs, resulting in protection against on-farm diarrhea and providing an increased growth rate.

Porcine Circovirus (PCV) includes Porcine Circovirus 1(PCV1), Porcine Circovirus 2 (PCV2) and Porcine Circovirus 3 (PCV3). In recent years, co-infection exists between PCV1, PCV2 and PCV3 serotypes. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to establish a fast, specific and sensitive SYBR Green I real-time quantitative PCR detection method for PCV1, PCV2 and PCV3. In this experiment, specific primers were selected and the reaction conditions were optimized. A real-time quantitative PCR identification method was established. The results showed the detection limits of this assay were 40.3 copies/μl for PCV1, 25.2 copies/μl for PCV2 and22.4 copies/ μl for PCV3. There was no cross-reactivity with swine fever virus (CSFV), porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), porcine pseudorabies virus (PRV) and porcine parvovirus (PPV). The intra-assay and inter-assay coefficients of variation were less than 1%. The test results of 100 PCV suspected positive samples revealed that the PCV1, PCV2 and PCV3 singular infection rate was 10% (10/100), 64% (64/100) and 52% (52/100), respectively. The PCV1 and PCV2 co-infection rate was 8% (8/100), the PCV1 and PCV3 co-infection rate was 7% (7/100), the PCV2 and PCV3 co-infection rate was 26% (26/100), and the PCV1, PCV2 and PCV3 co-infection rate was 7% (7/100). This method has good specificity, sensitivity and stability. It provides a promising tool for rapid differential detection of PCV1, PCV2 and PCV3.

Published: October 2023

Air quality is a crucial parameter in human life. One air quality indicator can be observed through Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD). If these substances are pollutants such as particulate matter, aerosols, and ozone, it is confident that air quality will deteriorate, threatening human health and causing climate change. AOD monitoring can be used as a basis for policymakers and related parties to maintain the stability of air quality in the atmosphere. Many ground observation stations monitor air quality by obtaining data on PM2.5 and PM10 aerosol particles. However, the number of ground stations is limited, resulting in incomplete data. Fortunately, remote sensing satellites have the advantage of covering large areas and providing continuous observations, with the ability to gather information on large-scale aerosol and obtain spatiotemporal distribution. Therefore, this research aims to obtain AOD through Himawari-8 and analyze the spatiotemporal air quality in urban areas of West Java based on AOD. The research methodology used in this study is descriptive analysis with an empirical research approach. Assisted by remote sensing technology and Geographic Information Systems, this research generates AOD data extraction that can be obtained from the new generation satellite of Himawari-8. The distribution of AOD levels and spatiotemporal monitoring in urban areas of West Java is very dynamic depending on anthropogenic activity in a particular area and time.Â Keywords: Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD), Air Quality, Himawari-8

Published: October 2023

Tsunamis are natural hazards that have the potential to cause significant damage and losses to the South Coast of Java. As the initial foundation for local spatial planning and risk reduction, preparing a tsunami susceptibility mapping is imperative to minimize the disaster's impact. This study aims to identify the spatial distribution of tsunami susceptibility in Watukarung Village, Pacitan Regency, using the Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation (SMCE) method. The variables involved in the modeling include landform, elevation, slope, distance from the shoreline, and distance from the river. The value and weight of each factor were determined using the pairwise technique in the SMCE framework. The research results indicated that the tsunami susceptibility in Watukarung comprises four classes: safe (598.40 ha), low (9.68 ha), moderate (23.92 ha), and high (25.13 ha). The areas most prone to tsunamis are generally identified in the southern part of Watukarung, which is generally associated with beach or alluvial plain landforms, very close to shore, and low land elevation. Ironically, human settlements and coastal tourism are overgrowing in the tsunami-prone zone, highlighting that risk reduction measures must be implemented optimally to anticipate tsunami hazards. As a recommendation, further research must be carried out to comprehensively represent the tsunami risk in the Watukarung coastal region.Â Keyword: Tsunami, Susceptibility, Spatial Multi-Criteria Evaluation, Watukarung, PacitanÂ

Published: October 2023

Visualization of volcanic landforms with digital elevation model (DEM) data on the GIS desktop computer has limitations regarding access to the software display function and its use outside the room. This obstacle can be overcome by combining GIS and mobile augmented Reality. However, using digital elevation model data and satellite imagery in augmented reality software has not been widely explored. This study shows a practical way of integrating geospatial data with mobile augmented reality software. This research aims to create an augmented reality prototype to visualize virtual volcano objects. DEM data and satellite imagery create 3-dimensional (3D) objects and provide texture characteristics of volcanic landform objects. Visualization of volcanic landforms is done through an augmented reality (AR) application prototype on an Android smartphone. The experimental results show that augmented reality technology effortlessly combines DEM data and land features from satellite imagery. Evaluation of a smartphone device's manufacturing and installation stages shows results with a "successful" status. Through follow-up testing nine times, the AR prototype showed positive performance in all aspects of distance, angle, and lighting. The final test scenario in the form of responses regarding the application from other users obtained an average value of the "Good" category of 92.8%. In conclusion, these results indicate that the system built can be used in learning. However, further research requires more diverse test scenarios to see how far this application prototype can be used in various conditions.Â Keywords: Digital Elevation Model, GIS, Augmented Realit, 3D VisualizationÂ
Validation of Satellite Rainfall Product (GPM-IMERG) an Bali and Nusa Tenggara: A Comparison of Normal Seasons, El Nino and La Nina Events
Authors: Tulistiawan Putu Eka , Karang I Wayan Gede Astawa , Osawa Takahiro
Published: October 2023

Bali and Nusa Tenggara are regions where monsoonal wind changes and strange interactions between the ocean and atmosphere influence rainfall. The purpose of this research is to evaluate Integrated Multi-Satellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) rainfall data using in-situ observations from Bali and Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia, while considering seasonal variations and the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phenomenon. The study combines rainfall data from synoptic stations with rain gauge measurements over ten years, from January 2012 to December 2021, to obtain more accurate verification results. The study's findings indicate that, apart from the transitional seasons, IMERG data provides substantial estimates of monthly rainfall accumulation with low error values for both light and heavy rainfall. The study also reveals that the islands' complexity and topography can impact each province's validation values. The verification results show excellent accuracy in flat terrain areas and moderate elevations, while performance decreases in regions with high altitudes. These findings are significant because IMERG data can estimate rainfall for regions lacking monitoring stations during specific seasons and active ENSO conditions. Thus, this information can serve as a valuable tool to address the issue of data unavailability in hard-to-access areas and contribute to optimizing water resource management and weather-related disaster mitigation.Â Keywords:Â Validation, Rainfall, IMERG, ENSO

Authors: Mutaqin Bachtiar W. , Ningsih Renny Laksmita
Published: October 2023

Detailed information regarding tidal characteristics in Indonesian waters is not yet available evenly, including in the southern waters of Java. Tides are one of the most essential hydro-oceanographic parameters in water dynamics. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the characteristics of the tides in the southern waters of Java, starting from Banten Regency in West Java to Malang Regency in East Java. Tidal data with measurement intervals every one hour were collected from December 23, 2022, to January 20, 2023, from ten tide stations with details: 1 station each in Banten and Central Java, three stations each in West Java and East Java, as well as two stations in Yogyakarta. Data from each station is then processed using the Admiralty method to obtain tidal harmonic constant and Formzahl values. Based on the tidal harmonic constants' amplitude and the Formzahl values (F), the tidal type in the southern waters of Java is a mixed tide prevailing semi-diurnal (F ranged from 0.64 - 1.34). The tidal range in the southern waters of Java ranges from 178 - 332 cm. In more detail, Banten and Pelabuhan Ratu waters are classified as micro tides (the tidal range is 178 and 182 cm, respectively). At the same time, the rest are categorized as meso tides (tide range between 200 - 400 cm).Keywords:Â Tidal Type, Admiralty, Formzahl, Tidal Range,Â Indian Ocean

The availability of tourist maps so far has experienced limitations in presenting attribute data in the form of non-spatial characteristics. Tourism is called quality if it can convey the information the community needs. Among them are location attributes, land use, natural and cultural phenomena history, and interrelationships between spaces. Geographical and cultural features are essential to be used in realizing quality tourism through the availability of information on tourism space areas, such as visualization of landscapes and depth of local cultural knowledge. This study used a qualitative method with data collection techniques carried out through interviews, focus group discussions, landscape documentation, surveys, and observations to determine the geographical position of spatial elements. The results of the study produced Itinerary Maps and geosite distribution, including the Saddang River, Buntu Lindo Batu, Lo'ko Malillin, Buntu Lingkobo, Mount Benteng Allaâ€™, Buntu Karua, and Kalosi Arabica Coffee Cultivation. The row of geosites has a chronology and chronology of formation and is related to the social culture of the people in the Fort Allaâ€™ area. The findings from this study are expected to provide exposure to the public, tourists, and the government to preserve natural and cultural heritage to become a reference in implementing sustainable tourism development in Enrekang Regency. It is necessary to develop a digital-based information system that presents spatial attribute data and ethnographic records that can be accessed online.Â Keyword: Tourism Geography, Ethnography, Benteng Allaâ€™, GIS

Nonverbal communication comprises an essential part of the interactions between leader and follower. Although numerous studies have been conducted on nonverbal communication in multiple industries, there has been limited attention given to the effect of nonverbal communication in the construction industry. Additionally, there is a lack of a reliable model for a leader’s nonverbal communication in construction. Therefore, thisstudy specifically aims to contribute to this gap by linking leaders’ nonverbal communication to an under-researched outcome of the leader-follower relationship, namely, followers’job satisfaction. Thisstudy also emphasisesthe mediating effect of followers’ emotions in the aforementioned relationship. For this purpose, the literature review is built upon nonverbal communication, job satisfaction, and emotion, which were identified through scientific manuscripts and electronic databases. Consequently, this study proposes a model for the leader’s nonverbal communication and followers’ job satisfaction. The literature review illustrates the significance of nonverbal communication in the construction industry to improve the productivity and effectiveness of followers. This research suggests investigating the proposed model virtually and developing deeper insights on leaders’ nonverbal communication and its possible impact on job satisfaction.

Corporate tax planning as a strategy for minimising tax liability by companies has been frequently discussed. Many discoveries have been established by previous academics regarding the determinants of company tax planning. However, accounting conservatism is infrequently discussed in the context of company tax planning. Accounting conservatism is the accounting principle that businesses employ when preparing financial statements. Since tax reporting is dependent on audited financial statements, the choice of accounting principle impacts tax strategy. Thus, the main purpose of this paper is to examine the accounting conservatism patterns discussed by previous researchers. Using ATLAS.ti 22, the results report a thematic review analysis of the literature on accounting conservatism and taxation from 2000 to 2022. Keyword searches yielded 123 and 124 articles, respectively, in the Web of Science and Scopus databases. Nonetheless, only 22 articles were included for the analysis after being filtered based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The analysis revealed a few studies that analysed the connection between accounting conservatism and company tax preparation. This finding highlights the significance of further research into the impact of accounting conservatism on the implementation of tax planning strategies.
The Impact of Gender Inequality on GDP in EU Countries

In recent years, gender inequality has been considered the main characteristic of insufficient gross domestic product (GDP) growth. This paper discusses the evolution of GDP per capita in 21 countries of the European Union between 2015 and 2019. Using panel regression, we investigated the change in GDP per capita through five variables. The analysis results showed that female employment rate is the most statistically significant and positive variable on GDP. Gender Equality Index also appeared to be an essential variable. The second part of our analysis consisted of an explanatory spatial data analysis of all variables to examine the spatial dimension of the variables. To explain spatial econometrics, we used selected methods, namely, choropleth maps, Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) cluster analysis, Moran‘s scatter plots, and Moran‘s I statistics. Based on the visualization of choropleth maps, GDP per capita did not change during the observed period, even though the values of the explanatory variables changed. For GDP per capita, the same applies in the case of LISA cluster analysis. At the end of the monitored period, the countries were included in the same cluster as at the beginning. When plotting Moran‘s scatter plot, it was found that GDP per capita did not tend to have positive or negative spatial autocorrelation or no spatial autocorrelation. Moran‘s I statistic showed that GDP per capita values were not randomly dispersed; they were grouped according to a specific formula into clusters.

The aims of this article were to discuss the position of Czech nurses in the country's health care system, to assess their role in the preventive care and health literacy (HL) promotion and to define main factors, which may negatively impact their involvement in preventive care. We checked by the questionnaire, what is the position of nurses working in the primary care in the Czech health system, how nurses perceive their role in the preventive care and which factors influence their involvement. The expert opinion method was used to discover main barriers limiting the role of primary care nurses in prevention and HL promotion. A total of 204 nurses participated between May and June 2022 in an online survey. The survey was completed by interviews with five experts. Our main finding is that nurses are willing to be proactive in prevention and HL; however, their autonomy and responsibilities in these areas remain rather low. The main factors influencing the involvement of nurses in preventive care are the type of practice, age of nurses, and the administrative burden. The expert interviews propose that nurses are overloaded and that, in many cases, they do not really know their responsibilities in the field of preventive care. The core policy lesson derived from our research is that appropriate definition of roles and responsibilities of nurses and their related empowerment might represent critical measures towards increasing health system resilience and sustainability.

Communication networks are constantly increasing in size and complexity. Hence, the traditional rule-based algorithms of these networks will probably not operate at their most effective efficiency. Machine learning (ML) is being used these days to solve tough problems in a variety of industries, including banking, healthcare, and enterprise. Communication network performance can be improved using computational models that can deliver ML algorithms. This paper investigates the use of ML models in communication networks for prediction, intruder detection, route and path allocation, quality of service enhancement, and resource management. A review of the current literature suggests that there is a wealth of potential for researchers to leverage ML to solve challenging network performance problems, especially in the development of software-based networks and 5G.

Two basic strategies have developed by network designers to deal including errors. by adding extra information to data before sending. such approach is to comprise sufficient extra information to make destination to infer what the sent data should be, or it possible to add only sufficient extra information to let destination to infer that errors have been occurred, however not which error then have it ask re-send defected data. Previous strategy utilizes errors correcting mechanism and latter uses errors detecting mechanism. Utilize of errors correcting mechanism is named as Forward Error Correction (FEC). In this thesis, sliding window has been implemented over Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS). Therefore, MPLS send data from one node to other node on network depend on short path labels instead of logical addresses in network layer, in addition to that MPLS is connection oriented compared to IP network. Finally, we have study and analyze sliding technique performance over MPLS from delay, throughput and packet loss point of view. It is show that go back N has belter performance compared to selective repeat in term of throughput.
