Published: April 2023

Abstract. Organic sulfur and sulfate compounds, tracers for sources and atmospheric processes, are not currently measured in national monitoring networks such as the Interagency Monitoring of Protected Visual Environments (IMPROVE). The goal of this paper is to begin to assess the stability of organic sulfur and sulfate containing compounds on polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filters and the suitability of Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to measure these compounds. Stability assessment is needed because PTFE samples collected by IMPROVE are typically stored 6–9 months prior to analysis. For this study, two organosulfur compounds, methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and hydroxymethanesulfonate ion (HMS), and two organosulfate compounds, methyl sulfate (MS) and 2-methyltetrol sulfate (2-MTS), are collected individually on PTFE filters. Gravimetric mass measurements is used to assess mass stability over time. FT-IR spectra are evaluated to assess the capability of measuring the compound from PTFE filters by assessing the compound stability or chemical changes over time. Ion chromatography (IC) and Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-OES) are used as an additional tool to assess stability or chemical changes over time. MS has the highest potential to be measured by FT-IR in IMPROVE samples. For MS, a simple organosulfate, the mass changes are within measurement uncertainty and FT-IR spectra indicate no compositional change over a 4-month period, suggesting MS can be measured using FT-IR. IC and ICP-OES support the conclusion that MS is stable on the filter. However, for 2-MTS, the other organosulfate measured in this study, spectral changes after a month on the filter suggests it decomposes into other organosulfates or an inorganic sulfate. MSA in IMPROVE samples can be measured, but only as a lower bound, due to volatility off of the filter as indicated by FT-IR and gravimetry. FT-IR and IC both show that MSA is not chemically changing over the course of the study. Measurements by all methods indicate HMS is unstable on PTFE filter and IC and FT-IR indicate that it likely converts to inorganic sulfate. Future work includes the evaluation of these compounds in as ambient aerosol sample matrix to determine any differences in stability and identify interferences that could limit quantification.
Stochastic properties of coastal flooding events – Part 2: Probabilistic analysis

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Low-intensity but high-frequency coastal flooding, also known as nuisance flooding, can negatively affect low-lying coastal communities with potentially large socioeconomic effects. This flooding also can greatly affect post-storm coastal dune recovery and reduce the long-term resilience of the back-barrier ecosystem. Recent analytical work has hypothesized that these frequent flooding events are uncorrelated in time and can be modeled as a marked Poisson process with exponentially distributed sizes, a result with important implications for the prediction of coastal flooding. Here we test this proposition using high-temporal-resolution field measurements of an eroding beach on the Texas coast. A time series of the flooded area was obtained from pictures using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based semantic segmentation methods. After defining the flooding events using a peak-over-threshold method, we found that the size of the flooding events indeed followed an exponential distribution as hypothesized. Furthermore, the flooding events were uncorrelated with one another at daily time scales, but correlated at hourly time scales. Finally, we found relatively good statistical agreement between our CNN-based empirical flooding data and run-up predictions. Our results formalize the first probabilistic model of coastal flooding events driven by wave run-up which can be used in coastal risk management and landscape evolution models.
Low-level Arctic clouds: A blind zone in our knowledge of the radiation budget

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Quantifying the role of clouds in the Earth radiation budget is essential for improving our understanding of the drivers and feedbacks of climate change. This holds in particular for the Arctic, the region currently undergoing the most rapid changes. This region, however, also poses significant challenges to remote-sensing retrievals of clouds and radiative fluxes, introducing large uncertainties in current climate data records. In particular, low-level stratiform clouds are common in the Arctic but are, due to their low altitude, challenging to observe and characterize with remote-sensing techniques. The availability of reliable ground-based observations as reference is thus of high importance. In the present study, radiative transfer simulations based on state-of-the-art ground-based remote sensing of clouds are contrasted to surface radiative flux measurements to assess their ability to constrain the cloud radiative effect. Cloud radar, lidar, and microwave radiometer observations from the PS106 cruise in the Arctic marginal sea ice zone in summer 2017 were used to derive cloud micro- and macrophysical properties by means of the instrument synergy approach of Cloudnet. Closure of surface radiative fluxes can only be achieved by a realistic representation of the low-level liquid-containing clouds in the radiative transfer simulations. The original, likely erroneous, representation of these low-level clouds in the radiative transfer simulations let to errors in the cloud radiative effect of 43 W m-2. The present study highlights the importance of jointly improving retrievals for low-level liquid-containing clouds which are frequently encountered in the high Arctic, together with observational capabilities both in terms of cloud remote sensing and radiative flux observations. Concrete suggestions for achieving these goals are provided.
Hydrodynamics of a high Alpine catchment characterized by four natural tracers

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Hydrological processes in high-elevation catchments are strongly influenced by alternating snow accumulation and melt in addition to summer rainfall. Although diverse water sources and flow paths that generate streamflow in the world's water towers emerge from these two driving inputs, a detailed process understanding remains poor. We measured a combination of natural tracers of water at a high frequency, including stable isotope compositions, electrical conductivity (EC), and water and soil temperature to characterize hydrological processes in a snow-dominated Alpine catchment and to understand the diversity of streamflow sources and flow paths. Stable isotope composition of the sampled water revealed the prominence of snowmelt year-round (even during winter baseflow), and a strong flushing of the entire system with snowmelt at the start of the main melt period, sometimes referred to as the freshet, led to a reset, or return to baseline, of the isotopic values in most sampled water. Soil temperature measurements help identify snow-free periods and indicate sub-snowpack local flow, for example, in the case of rain-on-snow events. Water temperature measurements in springs can indicate flow path depth. EC measurements reflect the magnitude of subsurface exchange and allow for the separation of subsurface snowmelt contribution to streamflow from the contribution of stored groundwater. These insights into the details of streamflow generation in such a dynamic environment were only made possible due to intense, year-round water sampling. The sampled tracers are revealed to complement each other in important ways particularly because they were sampled during winter and spring, both snow-covered periods, the importance of which is a key implication of this work.
Estimating vadose zone water fluxes from soil water monitoring data: a comprehensive field study in Austria
Authors: Schübl Marleen , Brunetti Giuseppe , Fuchs Gabriele , Stumpp Christine
Published: April 2023

Abstract. Groundwater recharge is a key component of the hydrological cycle, yet its direct measurement is complex and often difficult to achieve. An alternative is its inverse estimation through a combination of numerical models and transient observations from distributed soil water monitoring stations. However, an often neglected aspect of this approach is the effect of model predictive uncertainty on simulated water fluxes. In this study, we made use of long-term soil water content measurements at 14 locations from the Austrian soil water monitoring program to quantify and compare local potential groundwater recharge rates and their temporal variability. Observations were coupled with a Bayesian probabilistic framework to calibrate the HYDRUS-1D model and assess the effect of model predictive uncertainty on long-term simulated recharge fluxes. Estimated annual potential recharge rates ranged from 44 to 1319 mm a−1 with a relative uncertainty (95 % interquantile range/median) in the estimation of between 1 % and 39 %. Recharge rates decreased longitudinally, with high rates and lower seasonality at western sites and low rates with high seasonality and extended periods without recharge at the southeastern and eastern Austrian sites. Higher recharge rates and lower actual evapotranspiration were related to sandy soils; however, climatic factors had a stronger influence on estimated potential groundwater recharge than soil properties, underscoring the vulnerability of groundwater recharge to the effects of climate change.
Total water levels along the South Atlantic Bight during three along-shelf propagating tropical cyclones: relative contributions of storm surge and wave runup

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Total water levels (TWLs), including the contribution of wind waves, associated with tropical cyclones (TC) are among the most damaging hazards faced by coastal communities. According to the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC; Masson-Delmotte et al., 2021), TC–induced damages are expected to increase because of stronger TC intensity, sea level rise, and increased populations along the coasts. TC intensity, translation speed, and distance to the coast affect the magnitude and duration of increased TWLs and wind waves. Under climate change, the proportion of high–intensity TCs are projected to increase globally (IPCC; Masson-Delmotte et al., 2021), whereas the variation pattern of TC translation speed also depends on regions (Yamaguchi et al., 2020). There is an urgent need to improve our understanding of the linkages among TC characteristics and TWL components. In the past years, hurricanes Matthew (2016), Dorian (2019), and Isaias (2020) propagated over the South Atlantic Bight (SAB) with similar paths but resulted in different coastal impacts. We combined in situ observations and numerical simulations with the Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere–Wave–Sediment Transport (COAWST) modeling system to analyze the extreme TWLs under the three TCs. Model verification showed that the TWL components were well reproduced by the present model setup. Our results showed that peak TWL depends mainly on the TC intensity, the distance to the TC eye, and the TC heading direction. A decrease of TC translation speed primarily led to longer exceedance duration of TWL, which may lead to more severe damage. Wave–dependent water level components (i.e., wave setup and wave swash) were found to dominate the peak TWL within the near–TC wave field (60 %). Our results also showed that in specific conditions, the pre–storm wave runup associated with the TC–induced swell may lead to TWLs higher than at the peak of the storm. This was the case along the SAB during Hurricane Isaias. Isaias’s fast TC translation speed and the fact that its swell was not blocked by any islands were the main factors contributing to these peak TWLs ahead of the storm peak.

Can Women Keep Managerial Positions in Saudi Arabia? The Impact of Glass Ceiling and Leadership Empowerment on Work-Life Balance
Authors: Alshammari Hammad
Published: April 2023

This study investigates the factors that impact female workers maintaining leading positions. The primary purpose of the search is to study the effect of the glass ceiling and leadership empowerment on women's work-life balance in the private sector in Saudi Arabia. A survey research design was employed, and a cross-sectional approach to data collection was used to achieve the primary objectives. Thus, data were collected from 54 selected female executives working in private enterprises in Saudi Arabia. Closed-ended questions-based Likert scales were employed to gather data from the research participants. The study uses Multiple regression to analyze the data collected using SPSS. Consequently, it was found that the empowerment of female leadership has a significant influence on the work-life balance of female leaders in the private sector of Saudi Arabia. On the other hand, the glass ceiling was not found to significantly impact the participants' work-life balance. Finally, it was concluded that attempts should be made to support female leaders as this will positively affect their work-life balance and consequently leads to better performance.

Published: April 2023

Предложена методика получения наноструктурированного пористого кремния электрохимическим травлением монокристаллических кремниевых пластин. Приведены результаты исследований полученных образцов методами комбинационного рассеяния света, которые не содержат характерных для аморфного кремния пиков, что показывает отсутствие аморфной составляющей в образцах. Также смещение пика в сторону уменьшения энергий, то есть так называемый «красный сдвиг», указывает на присутствие нанокристаллитов в структуре пористого кремния. Выявлено, что образцы обладают устойчивой интенсивной фотолюминесценцией в области 700−900 нм с максимумами ~771−772 нм, что является характерной типичной особенностью фотолюминесценции нанокристаллических кремниевых структур. Спектры фотолюминесценции с большой шириной полосы излучения предположительно обусловлены разбросом размеров и, возможно, формы наночастиц.

Quaternary vertebrate fauna of Bulgaria – composition, chronology and impoverishment
Authors: Boev Zlatozar
Published: April 2023

This study presents for the first time summarized data on 759 species/taxa (628 species at least) of six classes of Quaternary vertebrates of Bulgaria: Chondrichthyes (1); Actinopterygii (34); Amphibia (18); Reptilia (33); Aves (299); and Mammalia (374). The richest fauna has been recorded in the Late Pleistocene (285 species), followed by the Calabrian (255). Bulgaria has lost 32.3% of its former total Quaternary vertebrate fauna. The number of the lost taxa is as follows: species (245), genera (80), families (16), orders (5), of them three mammalian (Perissodactyla, Proboscidea, and Primates), and two avian (Otidiformes and Pteroclidiformes). Extinct families are: one amphibian (Palaeobatrachidae); two reptilian (Varanidae and Elapidae); three avian (Gruidae, Otididae, and Pteroclididae), and ten mammalian (Dipodidae, Eomyidae, Hystricidae, Ochotonidae, Hyaenidae, Phocidae, Equidae, Rhinocerotidae, Elephantidae, and Cercopithecidae). After the small mammals (mainly Cricetidae; 52 taxa), the composition of bovids (27 taxa) and canids (13 taxa) impoverished in a higher extent. The biggest number of recorded vertebrate families is found in the Meghalayan (79), followed by the Greenlandian (63) and the Late Pleistocene (62). At order and family levels, the most varied was the vertebrate fauna in the Meghalayan (39 orders, 79 families). In the Calabrian, the number of genera was a three times greater than in the Northgrippian, which indicates more diversified paleoenvironment. One genus, 25 species, and one subspecies have been described as new to the science from the Quaternary localities in Bulgaria.

Authors: Ateeq Kahkashan , Safdar Noumana , Ahmed Shakeel
Published: April 2023

We derived, a new three parameters continuous probability distribution called Exponentiated Transmuted Inverse Rayleigh Distribution (ETIRD). Various mathematical properties of the new distribution including mean, rth moments, moment generating function, quantile function etc. are derived. In the Classical paradigm, the estimators of the distribution are obtained using the maximum likelihood method. The Bayes estimators are derived under square error loss function (SELF) using non-informative and informative priors via the Lindley approximation technique. Bayes Estimators are compared with their corresponding maximum likelihood Estimators (MLEs) using a Monte Carlo Simulation Study under different sample sizes, different values of true parameters, using informative and non-informative priors. Performance of Bayes estimators and classical estimates is judged for the four real life data sets. The results of simulation study and real-life example show that the Bayes estimators provided better results than MLEs.

The expression for bias and mean square error (MSE) are derived up to first order of approximation, and investigated the performance of the proposed family with existing estimators in both actual and simulated conditions, found that new estimators showing lower mean square errors as compare to the existing once, it is concluded that the suggested family of estimators achieved better results.
Exploring Lomax-Gumbel {Frechet} Distribution in the Bayesian Paradigm
Authors: Ateeq Kahkashan , Safdar Noumana
Published: April 2023

This paper explores the Lomax-Gumbel {Frechet} distribution in the Bayesian paradigm. The posterior distributions of the parameters are not attained in closed form, so the Lindley and the Tierney-Kadane approximation methods are used for the evaluation of Bayes estimators and associated posterior risks under uniform, Maxwell, and half logistic priors. A complete implementation of these two techniques is provided. Three loss functions are used. An extensive simulation study and two real life data are provided to obtain and compare Bayes estimators in terms of prior distributions and loss functions. It is reported that the Bayes estimators obtained through the Tierney-Kadane method give better results than the Lindley approximation method, in terms of minimum posterior risks.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic, chronic inflammatory and auto immune disorder. RA is provoked by genetical predisposition and environmental factors. Oxidative stress makes the human liable to diseases like diabetes, RA, cancer, atherosclerosis etc. Hence the study investigated the anti-arthritic and oxidative activity of ethanolic extract of Glycosmis pentaphylla (EEGP) as it has not been pharmacologically tested. Anti-arthritic potential was evaluated in vitro using protein denaturation by bovine serum albumin and in vivo by Complete Freund Adjuvant (CFA) models at 200 and 400mg/kg doses. Also, in vitro and in vivo antioxidant ability was appraised by DPPH scavenging and assessment of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), and lipid peroxidation (LPO). The results exhibited concentration dependent inhibition of albumin denaturation with maximum results obtained at 800μg/ml. The results of CFA model depicted better protection against arthritic lesions and body weight alterations. Also G. pentaphylla remarkably ameliorated histopathological changes. Additionally, plant exhibited remarkable anti-oxidant activity.

High recovery water processes
Authors: Gray Stephen
Published: April 2023

High rate water recovery processes are becoming increasingly important as water scarcity increases, the move to a circular economy advances and ESG drives better environmental performance. The resource industry for example, is under increasing pressure to improve environmental performance to meet ESG responsibilities and this often translates reducing environmental impact associated with water discharges. High recovery processes are able to reduce the volume of contaminant laden streams from cleaned water that is discharged. The reduced contaminant volumes are then more easily managed. Similarly, during periods of drought the value of water increases significantly, and recovering as much clean water as possible becomes a target. The role of membranes in high recovery water treatment processes will be discussed along with approaches to achieving high water recovery and the challenges that arise. Silica as a contaminant that limits water recovery will be considered and approaches to mitigating silica fouling will be discussed.
Building a Diasporic Family: The Women’s Parent Mite Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church, 1874–1920
Authors: Dickerson Dennis C.
Published: April 2023

This article argues that the missionary language of the Women’s Parent Mite Missionary Society of the African Methodist Episcopal Church was cast in familial and kinship nomenclature that eschewed the evil of racial hierarchy. Although routine missionary vernacular about heathen Africa and its need for Christianization and civilization appeared in the rhetoric of AME women, they more deeply expressed a diasporic consciousness that obligated Black people on both sides of the Atlantic to resist Euro-American hegemony. The capacious embrace of the WPMMS for Black women—whether in the United States, the Caribbean, or Africa—actualized their vision for maternal and sisterly interaction in contrast to the racial condescension prevalent among white women in their respective American and European missionary groups.
Imaging the ‘Exotic Other’: John Wesley and the People of Africa
Authors: Field David N.
Published: April 2023

This article examines how John Wesley described the people of Africa, with particular reference to the people of West Africa and the ‘inhabitants of the Cape of Good Hope’. While Wesley has been rightly praised for his opposition to the enslavement of Africans, his descriptions of African people involved editing material from various sources in order to serve theological and rhetorical purposes directed toward his British readers. This produced distorted depictions that did not justly describe the people of Africa. These depictions exhibited ‘invincible prejudice’ and failed to meet Wesley’s own standards of honouring others as children of God.

OBJETIVOS: Compilar dados relevantes acerca da etiopatogenia, epidemiologia, apresentação clínica, diagnóstico e tratamento do kernicterus. MÉTODOS: Foi realizada uma revisão da literatura com busca no PubMed, Scielo e LILACS. Utilizou-se o descritor “kernicterus”, pesquisado no MeSH e DeCS. Foram pesquisados artigos que configuraram revisões de literatura e relatos de casos que estavam nos idiomas inglês, espanhol e português e que foram publicados entre 2015 e 2021. RESULTADOS: É evidente que a EBC abrange um espectro amplo de cursos clínicos decorrentes da neurotoxicidade da hiperbilirrubinemia, diagnosticados, sobretudo, por exames complementares e tratados por meio de fototerapia inicial ou exsanguineotransfusão e carece de mais consistência em estudos clínicos sobre aspectos fisiopatológicos. CONCLUSÃO: O perigo de icterícia grave é frequentemente subestimado e pode representar risco substancial de mortalidade neonatal e comprometimento do sistema nervoso central (SNC). Sendo de suma importância novas pesquisas acerca do tema para melhor delineamento e manejo da patologia.

Published: April 2023

Introduction: Acute anterior poliomyelitis (AAP) can affect people of any age, despite being uncommon before six months. The viral invasion destroys the lower motor neurons of the spinal cord, brain, and brainstem. As a result, it leads to partial or complete flaccid and asymmetrical paralysis of the lower limb and spine muscles. Big names like Frida Kahlo and US President Franklin D Roosevelt were diagnosed with polio.

Case Report: We present the case of a patient with AAP diagnosed at two years of age. As an adult, he gave osteomyoarticular sequelae, insomnia, new central (adynamia), peripheral fatigue, cold intolerance, joint and neuropathic pain. The patient received a clinical diagnosis of post-polio syndrome (PPS) after fulfilling Dalakas criteria. The physical examination showed some hallmarks of AAP, in addition to those primarily affected by PPS.

Conclusion: Post-polio syndrome is a disorder characterized by new neuromuscular deficits that present years after the resolution of polio infection. However, far beyond the physical pain, the psychosocial impact is staggering. Therefore, in addition to surgical intervention and physical therapy, attention should be paid to the psychological follow-up of this patient, who is most often elderly.
Afterword to the Story of Man in the Context of the Development of Biotechnology
Authors: Popova Gergana
Published: April 2023

The proposed article focuses on the possible consequences for the human in the context of the biotechnology development. Major findings in this field are presented, which are problematized first of all from the point of view of the erosion of morality through the instrumentalization of man and his body, through the undermining of the principles of egalitarianism and reciprocity in modern Western societies and through the hypothesis that the enhancement of human corporeality will lead to unpredictable answers to the question of the meaning of human existence and of the relation to the other. The existing national and supranational legal restrictions on genetic engineering and their corrosion under the pressure of the scientific communities and in general as a result of the progress in the field of biotechnology are examined. As a main methodological tool, the article uses the analyzes of Jürgen Habermas and Francis Fukuyama, developed in their classic works: “The Future of Human Nature” and “Our Posthuman Future”, but goes beyond their framework, problematizing the failure of both humanitarian discourses and of legal regulations to place limits on biotechnological research that affects not just the treatment of the human body but the future of human moral communities.

In Pakistan, 0.543 million children have been placed in residential care facilities. This study has been carried out to explore whether or not the orphans in the orphanages of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have been provided with enough nutritious food. For this purpose, four orphanages, i.e. Peshawar, Kohat, Abbottabad, and Swat, were selected from five zones in KP. The Child Status Index was used to collect rich data from the participants and was then analyzed by using SPSS (V.22). It was found that a significant majority of the orphans were being provided with good food and found to be well fed and eating regularly. Similarly, it was also found that the majority of the participants were well-grown and had good height and energy levels. The one-way ANOVA shows that there was no significant difference between food security and nutrition and growth. In light of Bowlby's (1951) theory of attachment, it was found that due to deprivation from an attachment figure, i.e. their mothers and primary caregivers, some orphaned children were found to be stunted and underweight. It is recommended that orphaned children should be placed into orphanages for a minimum period of time; however, such placement shall be the last resort.
