Published: February 2022

Mangrove forests are found along shallow shorelines with modest slopes where they receive freshwater runoff and nutrients from rainfall. They have been globally recognised as having a vital function in preventing coastal erosion, mitigating wave actions, and protecting coastal habitats and adjacent shoreline land-uses from extreme coastal events. Using Sentinel-2A, the spatial distribution of mangrove forests was constructed over three years. The accuracy assessment showed that the overall accuracy of the 2019 Sentinel-2A classification was 93.6 % with a Kappa coefficient of 0.90, and the accuracy of the Sentinel-2A in 2015 and 2017 was also more than 90.0 % with a Kappa coefficient of 0.87. There were 2327.9 ha of mangrove forests in 2019; 2007.9 ha in 2017; and 1881.3 ha in 2015. The AGB of mangrove forests in Thai Thuy has increased over time. In 2015, the area of mangrove forests with AGB higher than 7.3 tons ha-1 and AGC more than 3.42 tons ha-1 was estimated at about 877.2 ha, the area of mangrove forests with AGB and AGC greater than 7.3 and 3.42 tons ha-1, respectively, increased to 1067.6 ha in 2017, and there were 1241.1 ha with AGB over 7.3 tons ha-1 and AGC greater than 3.42 ton ha-1 in 2019. There were small variations of AGB and AGC of mangrove forests between field measurements and Sentinel-based estimation in 2019. Therefore, using Sentinel-2A to estimate AGB and AGC of mangrove forests is reliable and applicable to the Thai Binh coast and it needs to be tested in other similar coastal areas in Viet Nam.
FORCED TRANSVERSE VIBRATIONS OF FRACTIONAL VISCOELASTIC EULER-BERNOULLI BEAM USING THE MODAL ANALYSIS METHOD
Authors: Khang Nguyen Van , Phuong Nguyen Minh , Chung Pham Thanh
Published: February 2022

In the paper, the forced transverse vibration of fractional viscoelastic Euler-Bernoulli is studied. Based on the fractional relationship of stress and strain, the partial differential equation describing transverse vibration of Euler-Bernoulli viscoelastic beam is considered. The Riemann-Liouville fractional derivative of the order  and  is used. Using the Ritz-Galerkin method, the fractional partial derivative equation describing the vibration of the beam is transformed into a system of differential equations containing fractional derivatives. The dynamic response of a simply supported fractional viscoelastic beam to a harmonic concentrated force is calculated in detail. The forced vibration solution of the beam is determined using the harmonic balancing method. The solution to the vibration equations is determined analytically, while dynamic responses are calculated numerically. The effects of fractional–order parameters on the vibration amplitude-time curves are investigated. From the calculation results, we can see that the lower the parameter is, the larger the vibration amplitude. This is consistent with our logic thinking. A comparison between the approximately analytical solution and the numerical one shows a good agreement, and the correctness of the obtained results is therefore verified.
BIOCONVERSION OF LIGNOCELLULOSIC MATERIALS BY FUNGAL “ENZYME COCKTAIL” WITH THE CONTRIBUTION OF A GLYCOSIDE HYDROLASE FROM XYLARIA POLYMORPHA TO RELEASE CARBOHYDRATES AND BIOMETHANOL
Authors: Nghi Do Huu , Hang Tran Thi Nhu , Quynh Dang Nhu , Cuong Nguyen Manh
Published: February 2022

Abstract. The multifunctional GH78 glycoside hydrolase from the soft rot ascomycete Xylaria polymorpha (XpoGH78) catalyzed the conversion of different lignocellulosic materials to release carbohydrates and biomethanol. The disintegrating effect of enzymatic lignocellulose treatment can be significantly improved by using different kinds of hydrolases and a phenol oxidase. Thus, the conversion of rape straw meal by XpoGH78 could be optimized in the presence of accessory enzymes i.e. cellulases, xylanases and/or laccase. Synergistic conversion of rape straw also resulted in a release of 17.3 mg of total carbohydrates (e.g. arabinose, galactose, glucose, mannose, xylose) per gram substrate after incubating for 72 hrs. In addition, the treatment of rape straw with XpoGH78 led to a marginal biomethanol release of approx. 17 µg g-1 and improved to 270 µg g-1 by the cooperation with above accessory enzymes.
APPLICATION OF BOTANICAL PESTICIDES IN ORGANIC AGRICULTURE PRODUCTION: POTENTIAL AND CHALLENGES
Authors: Dao Huy Toan , Dao Van Hoang , Vu Dinh Hoang , Le Dang Quang , Lam Tran Dai
Published: February 2022

In the context of agricultural pest management, botanical pesticides are best suited for use in organic food (agricultural) production, due to their safety to humans and the environment compared to conventional pesticides. Compounds of plant origin can be highly effective, with diverse and multiple mechanisms of action, while having low toxicity towards non-target organisms. However, the large-scale application of these products for pest control is limited by their poor stability and other technological issues. An overview of botanical pesticides is presented in this paper. Trends and challenges in the research and application of botanical pesticides in Vietnam are also discussed.

Effect of cognitive behavioral intervention on electroencephalographic band powers of children with learning difficulty under eyes-closed and eyes-open conditions
Authors: Kaushik Pratima , Jena Samanta Puspak Kumar
Published: February 2022

ABSTRACT Background: Electroencephalography (EEG) plays an important role in assessing children with learning difficulties or related behavioral issues. Understanding EEG alterations in students with learning difficulties is crucial for evaluating cognitive functioning. Objective: The first aim was to examine the effects of the Program for Enhancing Academic and Behavioral Learning Skills (PEABLS), a cognitive-behavioral intervention on absolute and relative EEG band powers under eyes-closed and eyes-open conditions. Another aim was to examine the relationship between relative band powers of EEG waveforms through specific cognitive measurements like IQ, working memory and BGT for perceptual motor skills and organization. Methods: This study had a quasi-experimental pre-test post-test research design and involved a group of 50 students with learning problems. PEABLS, an accessible school-based intervention, was offered to academically low-performing students. EEG recordings were conducted before and after the intervention on prefrontal (FP1 FP2), temporal (T3 T4) and occipital (O1 O2) scalp locations. The data acquired were processed using MATLAB to find the absolute and relative band powers of waveforms. Results: Paired t tests on the recorded EEG data suggested that significant improvements in absolute and relative power values of waveforms were achieved, post-intervention. There were significant increases in relative alpha power values in the prefrontal and temporal regions under both eyes-closed and eyes-open conditions and significant increases in relative theta and delta power in the prefrontal and temporal regions. Pearson's correlation suggested that there was a significant relationship between relative alpha and beta power values in the prefrontal and occipital regions, through the cognitive measurements. Conclusion: PEABLS was significative in bringing changes to EEG band powers.

ABSTRACT Background: The olfactory nerve has never been the shining star of neurological examination. Quite the contrary, examining the first cranial nerve is often an overlooked step. As cases of anosmia secondary to COVID-19 infection continue to rise, the 2020 pandemic has shed new light on this much-forgotten nerve, its value as an aid to diagnosis of several diseases and its central role in our daily lives. Objective: We aimed to emphasize how essential and simple clinical examination of the olfactory system can be by highlighting practical techniques and clinical tips for its assessment. We also share pearls and pitfalls in localization and differential diagnosis, which may prove valuable to busy clinicians. Methods: A broad review of the literature was conducted by searching PubMed, Cochrane and Google Scholar for articles and books containing topics regarding examination of the olfactory nerve and its anatomy, physiology and pathology. No particular inclusion or exclusion criteria were used. Results: Forty different works were found, between books and articles, from which 20 were selected after careful analysis. Conclusions: Despite the tragedy and adversity that followed the COVID-19 pandemic, its legacy has taught us a crystal-clear lesson: olfaction should no longer be neglected in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of death and neurological disability in the world. Several scales help professionals in the early recognition of the disease. However, none of these were developed in Brazil. Objectives: To translate the Los Angeles Prehospital Stroke Screen (LAPSS) into Brazilian Portuguese, and cross-culturally adapt and validate the scale in a representative sample of the Brazilian population. Methods: This study was carried out in two phases: the first consisted in the translation and cross-cultural validation of the LAPSS, and the second in a cross-sectional study with prospectively collected data in patients with suspected stroke treated in a Brazilian prehospital and referred to a stroke center. Statistical analysis was used to assess the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of the scale. Cohen's Kappa coefficient (κ) was used for psychometric assessment. Results: After translation and cross-cultural adaptation, the scale was applied to 86 patients. The scale presented a sensitivity of 83.8%, positive predictive value of 79.50%, specificity of 40.70%, negative predictive value of 47.80%, and accuracy of 77%. Cohen’s kappa coefficient was calculated using data from 26 (30.23%) patients and the results showed excellent inter-rater reliability in the majority of the items (52.96%). Conclusions: The scale was translated and cross-culturally adapted for use in Brazil. The scale presented high sensitivity and accuracy but low specificity, and the Cohen’s kappa demonstrated inter-rater reliability. The greatest difficulties occurred when the evaluation included subjective identifications. The scale excluded patients < 45 years old as stroke suspects.
A likely case of progression from mild cognitive impairment to dementia in Yasunari Kawabata's The Sound of the Mountain
Authors: Pedro Matheus Kahakura Franco , Machado Amanda Batista
Published: February 2022

ABSTRACT Ageing has always been a prominent theme for many authors, who wrote about the physical and cognitive changes that accompany it. Japanese literature, in particular, is rich in examples, especially from the pen of Yasunari Kawabata. In The Sound of the Mountain, Kawabata narrates the old age of Shingo Ogata, who begins the book manifesting only lapses in episodic memory, in a manner compatible with what we would call mild cognitive impairment. After detailed descriptions of other ailments of old age, Shingo comes to realise that a new deficit has appeared: apraxia. Unable to tie his own tie, he realises his own decline to what we could call an initial form of dementia, with this added cognitive deficit impacting his daily life. In short, Kawabata elegantly delineates a disease progression familiar to all neurologists, in a way that leads us to consider with new lenses the neurological challenges of ageing.

Abstract Introduction: National data on chronic dialysis treatment are essential to support the development of health policies aimed at improving the treatment for thousands of people. Objective: To report epidemiological data from the 2020 Brazilian Dialysis Survey, sponsored by the Brazilian Society of Nephrology. Methods: A survey was carried out in Brazilian chronic dialysis centers using an online questionnaire for the year, covering clinical and epidemiological aspects of patients in a chronic dialysis program, data on dialysis therapy, characteristics of dialysis units and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Results: 235 (28%) of the centers responded to the questionnaire. In July 2020, the estimated total number of patients on dialysis was 144,779. The estimated prevalence and incidence rates of patients per million population (pmp) were 684 and 209, respectively. Of the prevalent patients, 92.6% were on hemodialysis (HD) and 7.4% were on peritoneal dialysis (PD); 23% were on the transplant waiting list. A central venous catheter was used by a quarter of patients on HD. The incidence rate of confirmed COVID-19 between February and July 2020 was 684/10,000 dialysis patients, and the lethality rate was 25.7%. The estimated overall mortality and COVID-19 crude annual mortality rates were 24.5 and 4.2%, respectively. Conclusion: The absolute number of patients on chronic dialysis and prevalence rate continued to increase. The low use of PD as dialysis therapy was maintained and the use of long-term catheters for HD increased. The COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the increase in the overall mortality rate.

A APLICAÇÃO DO TRATADO INTERAMERICANO DE ASSISTÊNCIA RECÍPROCA (TIAR) À CRISE VENEZUELANA DE 2019
Authors: Campos Bernardo Mageste Castelar
Published: February 2022

Resumo Este artigo trata da aplicação do Tratado Interamericano de Assistência Recíproca (TIAR) à situação interna da Venezuela em 2019 após a adesão do país por solicitação do autointitulado governo interino da Assembleia Nacional Venezuelana (ANV). É analisada a compatibilidade da aplicação do TIAR pela ANV e pelo Órgão de Consulta com o direito internacional. Em especial são examinadas as possibilidades de aplicação do TIAR aventadas no caso venezuelano pelo exercício da legítima defesa coletiva ou em razão da existência de “fato ou situação que possa pôr em perigo a paz de América”, bem como as hipóteses de intervenção armada e medidas coercitivas como medidas passíveis de serem adotadas no caso em questão, tais quais as sanções efetivamente adotadas pelo Órgão de Consulta em setembro e dezembro de 2019. A metodologia empregada para análise é normativa, feita com base nas normas do TIAR, interpretadas segundo seu objetivo, trabalhos preparatórios e prática subsequente das partes, além de normas do direito internacional geral. Conclui-se que o emprego do TIAR no caso em questão e a adoção de eventuais medidas coercitivas nele baseadas são contrários ao direito internacional em razão da inexistência de hipóteses normativas válidas no instrumento que justifiquem sua aplicação à situação concreta.
“Clara, esta sou eu!” Nome, acesso à saúde e sofrimento social entre pessoas transgênero
Authors: Mota Maylla , Santana Alef Diogo da Silva , Silva Louise Rodrigues e , Melo Lucas Pereira de
Published: February 2022

Esta pesquisa qualitativa objetivou compreender as relações entre acesso a serviços de saúde e experiências de sofrimento social entre pessoas trans. Foram conduzidas entrevistas semiestruturadas com cinco interlocutores e observações participantes. Os dados foram analisados por meio da codificação temática, originando duas categorias: “A negação do nome” e “Acesso à saúde e transfobia institucionalizada no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS)”. As narrativas das/os interlocutores permitiram localizar tais relações na sociogênese de experiências de sofrimento social. A negação do nome implica negação da humanidade da pessoa trans, bem como patologização de sua identidade e prejuízos no acesso à saúde, colocando a automedicação como uma possibilidade de agência. Concluiu-se que a transfobia institucionalizada no setor de saúde reproduz a precarização da cidadania de pessoas trans, destacando quanto a ação estatal com vistas a mitigar o sofrimento social pode, por vezes, intensificá-lo.

Full-scale tests on soilbag-constructed retaining walls with a panel
Authors: Lai Z. , Jiang E. , Fan K. , Liu S. H. , Wang Y.
Published: February 2022

In this study, full-scale tests were conducted on soilbag-constructed retaining walls (SBWs) with panels to analyse the effects of the fixed forms of the panels on the deformation and lateral earth pressures of the wall. The results show that a panel in front of an SBW affects its performance. The SBWs with fixed panels deformed laterally in a cantilever-like manner, while the SBWs with unfixed panels deformed laterally in a rigid-wall-like manner. The earth pressures acting on the fixed panel were found to be larger than those acting on the unfixed panel. The results of the full-scale tests of the panel and non-panel SBWs were compared to analyse the effects of the panel on the behaviour of the wall, and it was found that their resulting earth pressures were different, while the performance of the SBW with the unfixed panel was similar to that of the SBW without a panel. This indicates that the inclusion of an unfixed panel can make full use of the potential for an SBW to reduce the earth pressures.
Deliberation, Cognitive Complexity, and Political Engagement: A Longitudinal Study of the Impact of Deliberative Training During Emerging Adulthood
Authors: Buchanan Christy M. , Harriger Katy J. , McMillan Jill J. , Gusler Stephanie
Published: February 2022

Young adults who had participated in a college program in which they learned to deliberate were compared with a matched sample from the same college who did not participate. Interview and survey responses to questions about citizenship and communication about politics were analyzed. Ten years after their graduation, the students who learned to deliberate during college had more complex conceptions of citizenship and its responsibilities compared to their 2005 classmates in the matched cohort. They also expressed more willingness to engage in political talk across differences. The study suggests that when emerging adults have extended experience deliberating about potentially divisive policy issues, they develop cognitive and communicative skills that equip them to navigate the diverse socio-political world that they now inhabit. Thus, we argue that education for democracy in the 21st century should include instruction in deliberative practice.

Politics of History
Authors: Purwanta Hieronymus , Novianto Victor
Published: February 2022

This study traced historical footprints of national identity discourses production through high school history textbooks. The main question is, what did the New Order's politics look like to the national history of Indonesia? The method used was qualitative research that focused on analyzing the content of history textbooks. This research examined nine history textbooks from three national curriculums. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) is used to analyze the content of the textbooks. The results show that New Order was discoursing Indonesian national identity as a nation that runs a modern and militaristic society. The discourse of modernity presents Western culture as the only source of Indonesian progression. As a result, national history exclusively narrates many of the Dutch colonial policies as a determinant factor for the development of the Indonesian people. In contrast, history textbooks negated indigenous culture as traditional that is inappropriate for modern life. On the other hand, militaristic discourse exposing the army's success in defending Indonesian independence. Instead, civil government and diplomatic negotiation were negated as the loser.
Governance of Fragmented Compliance and Voluntary Carbon Markets Under the Paris Agreement
Authors: Ahonen Hanna-Mari , Kessler Juliana , Michaelowa Axel , Espelage Aglaja , Hoch Stephan
Published: February 2022

Over the past two decades, the emergence of multiple carbon market segments has led to fragmentation of governance of international carbon markets. International baseline-and-credit systems for greenhouse gas mitigation have been repeatedly expected to wither away, but show significant resilience. Still, Parties to the Paris Agreement have struggled to finalize rules for market-based cooperation under Article 6, which are still being negotiated. Generally, there is tension between international top-down and bottom-up governance. The former was pioneered through the Clean Development Mechanism under the Kyoto Protocol and is likely to be utilized for the Article 6.4 mechanism, while the latter was used for the first track of Joint Implementation and will be applied for Article 6.2. Voluntary carbon markets governed bottom-up and outside the Kyoto Protocol by private institutions have recently gained importance by offering complementary project types and methodological approaches. The clear intention of some Parties to use market-based cooperation in order to reach their nationally determined contributions to the Paris Agreement have led to an ongoing process of navigating the alignment of these fragmented carbon market instruments with the implementation of nationally determined contributions and Paris Agreement’s governance architecture. We discuss emerging features of international carbon market governance in the public and private domain, including political and technical issues. Fragmented governance is characterized by different degrees of transparency, centralization, and scales. We assess the crunch issues in the Article 6 negotiations through the lens of these governance features and their effectiveness, focusing on governance principles and their operationalization to ensure environmental integrity and avoid double counting.
Beyond Control: Policy Incoherence of the EU Emissions Trading System
Authors: Willner Maximilian , Perino Grischa
Published: February 2022

In this article, we explain why the current climate policy mix of the European Union (EU), consisting of the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) and overlapping policies, is incoherent with respect to emission abatement and cost-effectiveness. The concept of policy coherence guides our analysis in identifying the EU ETS’ current dynamic supply adjustment mechanism, the Market Stability Reserve (MSR), to be at the heart of the shortcomings of current market design. Incoherence emerges due to the MSR’s quantity-based indicator for scarcity. It only works well for current and past demand fluctuations, but not for anticipated changes in demand, e.g., caused by a member state’s fossil-fuel phase-out. As a result, instead of fostering synergies as intended, the MSR undermines coherence by creating backfiring interactions and making precise predictions of overlapping policies’ impacts close to impossible. Considering the European Commission’s reform proposal of July 2021, we argue that a change in the MSR’s parametrisation leaves the fundamental cause of incoherence unaddressed. Based on recent findings in the economics literature, we propose introducing a price-based indicator for scarcity as a solution to substantially reduce the current incoherence of the policy mix.
Urbanism and Geographic Crises: A Micro-Simulation Lens on Beirut
Authors: Termos Ali , Yorke-Smith Neil
Published: February 2022

At a geographical and strategic confluence, the ancient city of Beirut, Lebanon, has witnessed crises from natural and human causes over the centuries. The modern urban and peri-urban development is a result of neo-classical economics, laissez-faire regulations, and complex socio-political structures. This article considers the contemporary housing situation and asks about its resilience to crises. The methodological approach is speculative simulation. We capture the urban status quo through agent-based simulation, and simulate a range of independent shocks. Although the goal of the article is exploratory and not historical replay, the shocks considered are historical exemplars, such as the explosion on August 4th, 2020. Looking across peri-urban Beirut, we measure qualitative effects on housing economics and dynamics. The research question thus addressed is to determine the optimal amount of capital needed for regeneration without triggering a price increase in the housing market. The contribution of the article is a data-and-modelling approach to humane questions of interest to urban scholars. The simulation model is available open source to provoke further enquiry.
Transpersonal experience as a response to the challenges of nihilism: the European context
Authors:   Kyiv National University of Trade and Economics, Morozov A. Y. , Rohozha M. M. ,   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine
Published: February 2022

The authors of the article focus their attention on the question of spirituality as an existential attitude of a person to the sacred mystery of being. The ambivalence of the realm of the sacred is that being transcendental at the same time in the act of Epiphany it manifests itself in a variety of symbolic forms of personal experience. It is argued that spirituality par excellence is transpersonal experience, which communicates the personality with the secret of the sacred as incomprehensible, not intellectually, but through existential involvement. In this intuitive experience of spiritual inspiration, the inexpressible truth of things beyond "facts" and "texts" is revealed to man. Transpersonal experience is constitutive in the process of a person's formation, his humanization. The transcendence of the individual takes place in it, which presupposes a constant movement of self-improvement and self-overcoming, expansion of consciousness. This can be called spiritual initiation through a gradual moral transformation of the personality through symbolic death and resurrection, the purpose of which is the realization of existential fullness and the achievement of happiness-bliss. Historical forms of spiritual initiation are analyzed, such as the ancient mysteries and the Christian sacrament of the Eucharist. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the Platonic understanding of inspiration-madness. It is noted that in the depths of modern secular culture, which is a consequence of the nihilistic attitude towards "disenchanting the world" and moral relativism, nostalgia for the sacred is inevitably born. Heidegger's teaching states that the roots of modern world disengagement, nihilism, and the oblivion of the sacred truth of being should be sought in the very history of being, that is, in objective "ontohistory". At the same time, it depends on the will of man whether he wants to abandon his nihilistic and cynical utilitarian-pragmatic attitude of worldview, and change the mode of existence to a useless "essential" attitude to reality. Nostalgia for the fullness of life, for a holistic picture of the world, on one hand, and the soulless technocratic and objective nature of modern civilization, dominated by alienation and impersonality, on another hand, should be a turning point on the way to the main event of ontohistory – the revenge of the sacred and the return of the "last god".
Culture of everyday life: to the issue of structure and content logic of the educational discipline. Part II
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Napadysta V. G.
Published: February 2022

The article discusses the logic of structure and content of the discipline "Culture of Everyday Life", due to the complexity and versatility of the everyday life phenomenon and interdisciplinarity of methodological optics of its research, the variety of theoretical tools, which, in turn, determines the ambiguity of views on the very essence of the everyday life phenomenon and its components. The analysis of educational programs on "Culture of Everyday Life", that are placed among the elements of educational professional and scientific training programs on "Culture Studies" in higher education institutions in Ukraine, demonstrated the wide variability of their content and structure. In the second part of the article, the characteristic features of the everyday life and its oppositional worlds, which helps to delineate the boundaries of the everyday life, as well as its structures and factual and semantic content, are analysed. In particular, the human body and body techniques in the context of everyday practices; house and settlement as an organized and ordered space of everyday life; meals in different modes of gastronomic practices; clothing and its socio-stratification role in everyday life; emotional, regulatory and value foundations of the world of relationships in a family circle. The variability of the semantic content of the "culture of everyday life" concept is considered and the presence of problems in its conceptualization is noted. Based on this, the very name of the discipline "Culture of Everyday Life" is problematized. Emphasis is placed on the appropriateness of its replacement by "Culture Studies on Everyday Life", which would open new opportunities in the structural and thematic content of this discipline and would contribute to the formation of its own specifics in presenting the everyday life phenomenon, focused not on the boundless world of factuality or as a certain normativeness of everyday life, but on a conceptual view of its content and essence, the search for certain patterns in long-term historical durations, the change of which causes profound structural changes in human community as a whole.

Se aplica la micromorfología de suelos a una selección de muestras procedentes del depósito endokárstico del yacimiento arqueológico del Pleistoceno medio (MIS 9-MIS 7) de la Cueva del Ángel, Lucena (Córdoba), con idea de obtener una primera aproximación a su caracterización deposicional, así como a ampliar información acerca de su evolución postdeposicional y de la influencia antrópica sobre el mismo. El depósito corresponde con una sedimentación detrítica como resultado fundamentalmente de procesos de aluvionamiento y escorrentía, mientras que los procesos postdeposicionales vienen dominados por procesos diagenéticos y bioturbación. Además de estos procesos geogénicos, también se constata desde el punto de vista micromorfológico, una importante afectación del sedimento por procesos antropogénicos.

La tercera edición de la Tabla Cronoestratigráfica del Cuaderno de la península ibérica (v 3.0) sustituye a las versiones más antiguas editadas en 2007 (v 1.0) y 2009 (v 2.0). Desde esta fecha la Comisión Internacional de Estratigrafía (ICS), y más concretamente la Subcomisión de Estratigrafía del Cuaternario (SQS), ha estado trabajando tanto en la definición del Periodo Cuaternario como en sus subdivisiones, aportando nuevos GSSP (Global Stratotype Section and Points) para los mismos. La nueva tabla incluye los GSSPs recientemente aprobados para la subdivisión de la Serie Holocena (Groenlandiense, Norgripiense y Meghalayense), así como el nuevo piso Chibaniense (774,1 - 128,0 ka) ratificado por la IUGS a principios del 2020, que sustituye al Pleistoceno medio. Esta versión 3.0 también incluye todas las modificaciones y correcciones que han surgido desde entonces, incluyendo la actualización de datos, fechas y dataciones para los yacimientos paleontológicos y/o arqueológicos más representativos de la península. Asimismo, se ha revisado la extensión de los diferentes periodos climáticos considerados para Europa central y Alpes ajustándose a las biozonas de mamíferos y las faunas asociadas. La extensión de estas últimas ha de entenderse referida a Europa central y meridional no solo a la península ibérica. En la distribución temporal de periodos de la prehistoria y complejos tecno-culturales asociados se diferencia entre el continente africano y europeo. De la misma forma la sucesión de especies de homininos se centra también en estos dos continentes. Esta revisión ofrece una lista de referencias actualizada, así como una versión digital interactiva que se implementará próximamente.

Speleothems and detrital deposits in caves are excellent archives of cave flood events but are still poorly exploited. In this study we evaluate, the potential of the Ojo de Valjunquera (Zaragoza, NE Spain) for the study of past floods based on geomorphological, topographical, hydrological, and chronological data. The cave comprises two subhorizontal levels. The lower level consists of a main horizontal conduit including six siphons. This level is connected to the upper one by shafts and ramps. That situation, together with the constrictions of the gallery in the lower level, favours the water rise during rainfall events. The upper level is characterized by a larger presence of speleothems and detrital sequences compared to the lower level. Current observations indicate that water can rise by ~9 m in some cave sectors during rainfall episodes >60 mm, although the hydraulic head rise is not homogeneous along the cave, depending on the section's morphology. The stalagmites and detrital sequences hosted in the upper gallery most likely contain evidence of extreme events of rainfall. However, geomorphological and sedimentological evidences also suggest that the cave outlet could have been blocked in the past by sediments, favouring the water rise to high places usually not affected by regular floods. The detrital sequences located in lower positions with respect to the cave entrance show a higher proportion of sandy sediments than those located in the higher sectors related to the water energy during the flood. Stalagmites show clean carbonate alternating with well-defined detrital layers. These detrital layers vary in thickness: the thinner ones are related to small floods, whereas the thicker ones are connected to large floods. Two important historical floods (1709 and 1755 CE) occurred in the area that coincide with distinct detrital layers recorded in the stalagmites. All these observations suggest that Ojo de Valjunquera cave contains an important paleoflood archive based on speleothems and detrital deposits during the Holocene.

The thermal stability of the machining centers plays a major role in ensuring the production repeatability. All machine tools producers take various steps to ensure it. One of the ways to permanently maintain and stabilize the behavior of the machine tool is the use of active cooling and the choice of appropriate material of which the individual parts of the supporting system are made. In most cases, manufacturers of the machining centers use traditional metallic materials (steel, cast iron) for construction of the machine supporting system. However, these materials have some physical limitations. These materials can be replaced by or combined with unconventional materials to improve the thermal stability of the machine. The hybrid composite supporting structures are formed this way. The authors of this article examine the impact of steel-concrete composite material on thermal-deformation behavior of the bed in a vertical turning machining center for medium-heavy workpieces. The composite consists of the steel weld, filled with high-strength concrete.
