Authors: Mekki Ilyes , Smeti Samir , Hajji Hadhami , Mahouachi Mokhtar , Atti Naziha
Published: March 2022

Abstract. The green oak (Quercus ilex) plays an important role in forest ecology when oaks are the
dominant species or are plentiful. The use of acorns as an alternative to
barley for livestock feeding can be beneficial for breeders. The aim of this
study was the evaluation of the acorn intake by lambs in two stages,
suckling and fattening, on growth, diet digestibility, carcass and
non-carcass characteristics. For this, 32 lambs were used. During the
suckling period, 16 lambs were reared on range pasture, supplied by
barley (S-Ba), the other 16 on forest pasture and supplied by acorns (S-Ac). During the fattening period, lambs were assigned to concentrate
based either on barley (F-Ba) or acorn (F-Ac) resulting in eight animals per
suckling treatment per fattening treatment. The feed intake, diet
digestibility and lamb growth were recorded. At 90 d of fattening, all
animals were slaughtered and carcass traits studied. The main results show that the incorporation of acorn in concentrate was
without effect on digestibility of organic matter, crud protein and neutral
detergent fibre. The nitrogen balance was positive for animals fed barley
concentrate or acorn one (>8 g d−1). The lamb growth rates and
slaughter body weight were not affected by acorn incorporation in both
phases (p>0.05). Consequently, the carcass weights and carcass
yields were similar. The F-Ac and S-Ac lambs had relatively heavier liver
than F-Ba and S-Ba. The carcass composition in cutting pieces and that in
tissues (muscle, fat and bone) was similar for all groups. These results
suggest that acorns could replace partially conventional feedstuffs as
concentrate without affecting animal performance and carcass quality.

Abstract. The realization of the European Space Agency's Aeolus mission was supported by the long-standing development and field deployment of the Atmospheric LAser Doppler INstrument (ALADIN) Airborne Demonstrator (A2D) which, since the launch of the
Aeolus satellite in 2018, has been serving as a key instrument for the
validation of ALADIN, the first-ever Doppler wind lidar (DWL) in space. However, the validation capabilities of the A2D are compromised by deficiencies of the dual-channel receiver which, like its spaceborne counterpart, consists of a Rayleigh and a complementary Mie spectrometer for sensing the wind speed from both molecular and particulate backscatter signals, respectively. Whereas the accuracy and precision of the Rayleigh channel is limited by the spectrometer's high alignment sensitivity, especially in the near field of the instrument, large systematic Mie wind errors are caused by aberrations of the interferometer in combination with the temporal overlap of adjacent range gates during signal readout. The two error sources are mitigated by modifications of the A2D wind retrieval algorithm. A novel quality control scheme was implemented, which ensures that only backscatter return signals within a small angular range are further processed. Moreover, Mie wind results with large bias of opposing sign in adjacent range bins are vertically averaged. The resulting improvement of the A2D performance was evaluated in the context of two Aeolus airborne validation campaigns that were conducted between May and September 2019. Comparison of the A2D wind data against a high-accuracy, coherent DWL that was deployed in parallel on board the same aircraft shows that the retrieval refinements
considerably decrease the random errors of the A2D line-of-sight (LOS)
Rayleigh and Mie winds from about 2.0 to about 1.5 m s−1, demonstrating the capability of such a direct detection DWL. Furthermore, the measurement range of the Rayleigh channel could be largely extended by up to 2 km in the instrument's near field close to the aircraft. The Rayleigh and Mie systematic errors are below 0.5 m s−1 (LOS), hence allowing for an accurate assessment of the Aeolus wind errors during the September campaign. The latter revealed different biases of the Level 2B (L2B) Rayleigh-clear and Mie-cloudy horizontal LOS (HLOS) winds for ascending and descending orbits, as well as random errors of about 3 m s−1 (HLOS) for the Mie and close to 6 m s−1 (HLOS) for the Rayleigh winds, respectively. In addition to the Aeolus error evaluation, the present study discusses the applicability of the developed A2D algorithm modifications to the Aeolus processor, thereby offering prospects for improving the Aeolus wind data quality.
Process-based Estimate of Global-mean Sea-level Changes in the Common Era

Published: March 2022

Abstract. Though the global-mean sea level (GMSL) rose over the twentieth century with a positive contribution from thermosteric and barystatic (ice sheets and glaciers) sources, driving processes of GMSL changes during the pre-industrial common era (PCE; 1–1850 CE) are largely unknown. Here, the contributions of glacier and ice sheet mass variations and ocean thermal expansion to GMSL in the common era (1–2000 CE) are estimated based on simulations with different physical models. Although the twentieth-century global-mean thermosteric sea level (GMTSL) is mainly associated with temperature variations in the upper 700 meters (86 % in reconstruction and 74±8 % in model), GMTSL in the PCE is equally controlled by temperature changes below 700 meters. GMTSL does not vary more than ±2 cm during the PCE. GMSL contributions from the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets tend to cancel each other during the PCE owing to their differing response to atmospheric conditions. The uncertainties of sea-level contribution from land-ice mass variations are large, especially over the first millennium. Despite underestimating the twentieth-century model GMSL, there is a general agreement between the model and reconstructed GMSL in the CE. Although the uncertainties remain large over the first millennium, model simulations point to glaciers as the dominant source of GMSL changes during the PCE.

Abstract. Sedimentary charcoal records are widely used to reconstruct regional changes
in fire regimes through time in the geological past. Existing global
compilations are not geographically comprehensive and do not provide
consistent metadata for all sites. Furthermore, the age models provided for
these records are not harmonised and many are based on older calibrations of
the radiocarbon ages. These issues limit the use of existing compilations
for research into past fire regimes. Here, we present an expanded database
of charcoal records, accompanied by new age models based on recalibration of
radiocarbon ages using IntCal20 and Bayesian age-modelling software. We
document the structure and contents of the database, the construction of the
age models, and the quality control measures applied. We also record the
expansion of geographical coverage relative to previous charcoal
compilations and the expansion of metadata that can be used to inform
analyses. This first version of the Reading Palaeofire Database contains
1676 records (entities) from 1480 sites worldwide. The database (RPDv1b – Harrison et al., 2021) is available at

Abstract. Climate change increases the occurrence and severity of
droughts due to increasing temperatures, altered circulation patterns, and
reduced snow occurrence. While Europe has suffered from drought events in
the last decade unlike ever seen since the beginning of weather recordings,
harmonized long-term datasets across the continent are needed to monitor
change and support predictions. Here we present soil moisture data from 66
cosmic-ray neutron sensors (CRNSs) in Europe (COSMOS-Europe for short)
covering recent drought events. The CRNS sites are distributed across Europe
and cover all major land use types and climate zones in Europe. The raw
neutron count data from the CRNS stations were provided by 24 research
institutions and processed using state-of-the-art methods. The harmonized
processing included correction of the raw neutron counts and a harmonized
methodology for the conversion into soil moisture based on available in situ
information. In addition, the uncertainty estimate is provided with the
dataset, information that is particularly useful for remote sensing and
modeling applications. This paper presents the current spatiotemporal
coverage of CRNS stations in Europe and describes the protocols for data
processing from raw measurements to consistent soil moisture products. The
data of the presented COSMOS-Europe network open up a manifold of potential
applications for environmental research, such as remote sensing data
validation, trend analysis, or model assimilation. The dataset could be of
particular importance for the analysis of extreme climatic events at the
continental scale. Due its timely relevance in the scope of climate change
in the recent years, we demonstrate this potential application with a brief
analysis on the spatiotemporal soil moisture variability. The dataset,
entitled “Dataset of COSMOS-Europe: A European network of Cosmic-Ray
Neutron Soil Moisture Sensors”, is shared via Forschungszentrum Jülich:

Published: March 2022

Abstract. Implementation failure is widely acknowledged as a major impediment to the success of water resource plans and policies, yet there are very few proactive approaches available for analysing potential implementation issues during the planning stage. The motivations and abilities (MOTA) framework was established to address this planning stage gap, by offering a multi-stakeholder, multilevel approach to evaluate the implementation feasibility of plans and policies. MOTA is a stepwise process focusing on the relationship between trigger, motivation and ability. Here we outline the base model of the MOTA framework and review existing MOTA applications in assorted water resource management contexts. From our review, we identify the strengths and limitations of the MOTA framework in various institutional implementation and social adoptability contexts. Our findings indicate that the existing MOTA base model framework has been successful in identifying the motivations and abilities of the stakeholders involved in a range of bottom-up water resource planning contexts and in subsequently providing insight into the types of capacity- or consent-building strategies needed for effective implementation. We propose several complementary add-in applications to complement the base model, which specific applications may benefit from. Specifically, the incorporation of formal context and stakeholder analyses during the problem definition stage (Step 1) could provide a more considered basis for designing the latter steps within the MOTA analyses. In addition, the resolution of the MOTA analyses could be enhanced by developing more nuanced scoring approaches or by adopting empirically proven ones from well-established published models. Through setting the base model application, additional add-in applications can easily be added to enhance different aspects of the analysis while still maintaining comparability with other MOTA applications. With a robust base model and a suite of add-in applications, there is great potential for the MOTA framework to become a staple tool for optimising implementation success in any water planning and policymaking context.
The importance of freeze–thaw cycles for lateral tracer transport in ice-wedge polygons
Authors: Jafarov Elchin E. , Svyatsky Daniil , Newman Brent , Harp Dylan , Moulton David , Wilson Cathy
Published: March 2022

Abstract. A significant portion of the Arctic coastal plain is
classified as polygonal tundra and plays a vital role in soil carbon
cycling. Recent research suggests that lateral transport of dissolved carbon
could exceed vertical carbon releases to the atmosphere. However, the
details of lateral subsurface flow in polygonal tundra have not been well
studied. We incorporated a subsurface transport process into an existing
state-of-the-art hydrothermal model. The model captures the physical effects of
freeze–thaw cycles on lateral flow in polygonal tundra. The new modeling
capability enables non-reactive tracer movement within subsurface. We
utilized this new capability to investigate the impact of freeze–thaw cycles
on lateral flow in the polygonal tundra. Our study indicates the important
role of freeze–thaw cycles and the freeze-up effect in lateral tracer transport,
suggesting that dissolved species could be transported from the middle of
the polygon to the sides within a couple of thaw seasons. Introducing
lateral carbon transport into the climate models could substantially reduce
the uncertainty associated with the impact of thawing permafrost.
The instantaneous impact of calving and thinning on the Larsen C Ice Shelf
Authors: Mitcham Tom , Gudmundsson G. Hilmar , Bamber Jonathan L.
Published: March 2022

Abstract. The Antarctic Peninsula has seen rapid and widespread changes in the extent of its ice shelves in recent decades, including the collapse of the Larsen A and B ice shelves in 1995 and 2002, respectively. In 2017 the Larsen C Ice Shelf (LCIS) lost around 10 % of its area by calving one of the largest icebergs ever recorded (A68). This has raised questions about the structural integrity of the shelf and the impact of any changes in its extent on the flow of its tributary glaciers.
In this work, we used an ice flow model to study the instantaneous impact of changes in the thickness and extent of the LCIS on ice dynamics and in particular on changes in the grounding line flux (GLF).
We initialised the model to a pre-A68 calving state and first replicated the calving of the A68 iceberg. We found that there was a limited instantaneous impact on upstream flow – with speeds increasing by less than 10 % across almost all of the shelf – and a 0.28 % increase in GLF. This result is supported by observations of ice velocity made before and after the calving event.
We then perturbed the ice-shelf geometry through a series of instantaneous, idealised calving and thinning experiments of increasing magnitude. We found that significant changes to the geometry of the ice shelf, through both calving and thinning, resulted in limited instantaneous changes in GLF. For example, to produce a doubling of GLF from calving, the new calving front needed to be moved to 5 km from the grounding line, removing almost the entire ice shelf. For thinning, over 200 m of the ice-shelf thickness had to be removed across the whole shelf to produce a doubling of GLF.
Calculating the instantaneous increase in GLF (607 %) after removing the entire ice shelf allowed us to quantify the total amount of buttressing provided by the LCIS. From this, we identified that the region of the ice shelf in the first 5 km downstream of the grounding line provided over 80 % of the buttressing capacity of the shelf. This is due to the large resistive stresses generated in the narrow, local embayments downstream of the largest tributary glaciers.
Elements of future snowpack modeling – Part 1: A physical instability arising from the nonlinear coupling of transport and phase changes
Authors: Schürholt Konstantin , Kowalski Julia , Löwe Henning
Published: March 2022

Abstract. The incorporation of vapor transport has become a key demand for snowpack modeling in which accompanied phase changes give rise to a new, nonlinear coupling in the heat and mass equations. This coupling has an impact on choosing efficient numerical schemes for 1D snowpack models which are naturally not designed to cope with mathematical particularities of arbitrary, nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs). To explore this coupling we have implemented a stand-alone finite element solution of the coupled heat and mass equations in snow using the computing platform FEniCS. We focus on the nonlinear feedback of the ice phase exchanging mass with a diffusing vapor phase with concurrent heat transport in the absence of settling. We demonstrate that existing continuum-mechanical models derived through homogenization or mixture theory yield similar results for homogeneous snowpacks of constant density. When snow density varies significantly with depth, we show that phase changes in the presence of temperature gradients give rise to nonlinear advection of the ice phase amplifying existing density variations. Eventually, this advection triggers a wave instability in the continuity equations. This is traced back to the density dependence of the effective transport coefficients as revealed by a linear stability analysis of the nonlinear PDE system. The instability is an inherent feature of existing continuum models and predicts, as a side product, the formation of a low-density (mechanical) weak layer on the sublimating side of an ice crust. The wave instability constitutes a key challenge for a faithful treatment of solid–vapor mass conservation between layers, which is discussed in view of the underlying homogenization schemes and their numerical solutions.
Community Social Confflict and Production Suction Vessels (KIP) in matras Waters, Sungailiat District, Bangka Regency
Authors: Escobar Ronaldy
Published: March 2022

This study aims to obtain information, to what extent the Community Social Conflict and Production Suction Vessels (KIP) in Matras Waters, Sungailiat. The phenomenon of social conflict that occurs in the community due to mining activities, especially Tin mining in Bangka Belitung, is increasingly happening and is in the spotlight of various media, especially what is happening in the Sungailiat Mat waters, where social conflict problems arise due to marine tin mining activities carried out by Suction Ships. Production (KIP) causes various problems, namely conflicts that occur in the Matras community. As is known, Matras waters are one of the fishing areas for people who work as traditional fishermen, and Matras waters are also one of the mainstay tourist destinations in Sungailiat, so it is very unfortunate if the existing marine ecosystem is damaged as a result of the sea tin mining activities carried out by this Production Suction Vessel, and the damaged marine ecosystem will have a profound impact on life. Matras community whose economic source depends on existing marine products. Based on the results of initial observations, researchers are interested in researching the problem of Social Conflict that occurs related to the existence of Sea Tin mining activities carried out by Production Suction Vessels in the Matras waters. The purpose of this study is to find out how the dynamics of conflicts that arise related to the problems of operating the Production Suction Vessel in the Matras waters. This research uses conflict theory from Ralf Dahendorf which assumes that the first task to analyze conflict is to identify various roles of authority, and differences in interests between groups that affect conflict can occur, so researchers use conflict theory from Ralf Dahendorf to see the dynamics of conflicts that occur related to the operation Production Suction Vessel (KIP) in Matras waters. The method used in this research is qualitative using a case study approach which intends to describe the results of the study and try to find a comprehensive picture of a situation, and the data collection techniques used are interviews, observation, documentation. Sources of data used in the study came from primary and secondary data, and analyzed through 3 stages, namely data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. The findings in this study indicate that there are 4 stages of conflict dynamics that occur related to the operation of the Production Suction Vessel in the Mats waters, namely, the first pre-conflict stage, the second confrontation stage, the third crisis stage/conflict peak, and the fourth post-conflict stage.

Rendiciones en el arte. De los cuadros de historia a ejemplos contemporáneos
Authors: De Blas Ortega Mariano
Published: March 2022

Se estudian los mecanismos que representan un hecho histórico significativo mediante la seducción de una obra de arte. Se expone cómo ocurrieron los sucesos que se toman como relevantes, así pareciendo que lo importante es lo que se muestra porque así ha ocurrido, cuando el verdadero objetivo es configurar un mensaje aleccionador interesado que se ha de recibir de una manera subliminal y por lo tanto, acrítica. Se recurre al tema de cuadros y fotografías de rendiciones en guerras. Se muestran diferentes estrategias argumentales para la simbolización de un mensaje ideológico. Se continua con obras contemporáneas con referencias de cuadros históricos  pero con una representación de un suceso bélico al servicio del arte y no al contrario, pareciendo que documenta (ficticiamente) unos hechos históricos cuando lo que se pretende con ellas es desenmascarar mensajes subliminales empleados para configurar la realidad simbólica. En una se rememora un pasado mediante un absurdo que parece factible, en otra se inventa un futurible disfrazado de realidad actual y en una tercera se hace explícito un supuesto (falso) montaje, mostrando como verdadero lo que no aconteció, y que parece que así pasó.

El rol del mediador se ha convertido en una pieza fundamental para cualquier tipología de museos y de sus visitantes. Esta figura, que ha superado el papel tradicional del guía, se erige como una de las más prometedoras y necesarias en museos de todas las tipologías. Este artículo presenta una encuesta realizada en el Museo Interactivo de Economía (MIDE) en Ciudad de México (México). La muestra recogida es de 93 cuestionarios aplicados a los mediadores del museo, jóvenes universitarios entre 20 y 30 años de edad. Los datos recogidos se codificaron a través de Excel, y entre otras conclusiones, el análisis indica que el 71% de los mediadores asistió a la formación ofrecida por el centro, el 84,9% considera que la ciencia y la tecnología son beneficiosas para la humanidad. La encuesta dio a conocer otros resultados como que los mediadores se consideran a sí mismos un puente entre el museo y el público; que las exposiciones guiadas y las explicaciones informales son dos de los formatos más utilizados en la mediación, y que los adolescentes y el público escolar son los visitantes que más atienden en sus labores cotidianas.
La visualidad algorítmica: una aproximación social a la visión artificial en la era post internet
Authors: Contreras Medina Fernando Ramón , Marín Alba
Published: March 2022

En el marco de los estudios visuales, se observa un desarrollo de singulares prácticas cuya orientación tecnológica está basada en la innovación de algoritmos de inteligencia artificial. En este contexto, la investigación busca revelar la emergencia de una nueva interpretación de la visualidad, concretamente, mediante el análisis de dos líneas principales (cuya relación se trata de mostrar): por una parte, la visión artificial y su extensión en el universo posinternet de las redes sociales y de la web, donde la imagen pierde su significado simbólico y su dimensión estética para valorarse como una información que cambia el estado de un sistema;  y, por otro lado, el conocimiento social del mundo virtual a través del uso, la actitud y el comportamiento humano con los algoritmos inteligentes. Mediante la revisión bibliográfica multidisciplinar, como método principal, las conclusiones apuntan a una importante presencia de una visualidad dependiente de las máquinas inteligentes, que aportan un mayor enriquecimiento del estudio tanto de la naturaleza humana como de la realidad social en el entorno virtual.

Espacio de conversión entre arquitectura y pintura. El Cementerio de las Cenizas de los Pintores de Bodegones de John Hejduk.
Authors: Barberá Pastor Carlos
Published: March 2022

La investigación estudia la propuesta titulada El cementerio de las Cenizas de los Pintores de Bodegones. El fin del trabajo es razonar el sentido pictórico y arquitectónico del proyecto desarrollado por John Hejduk a través de los dibujos a mano alzada publicados en Adjusting Foundations. Desde la comprensión cultural de occidente, cuando miramos la pintura de un bodegón, el estudio trata de referirse a este enfrentamiento a través del espacio arquitectónico proyectado por Hejduk. El sentido de los términos ’still life’ o ‘natura morta’ son un medio para desarrollar una investigación que recupera una mirada hacia la conversión entre el espacio pictórico y el espacio arquitectónico. Este vínculo trata de construir un bodegón mediante la arquitectura, desde sus condiciones pictóricas, y es llevado a cabo mediante el análisis a un poema de Stéphane Mallarmé, una pintura de Giorgio Morandi, un texto de Cézanne, el proyecto de John Hejduk y una pintura de Georges Braque. El tiempo, el espacio pictórico, el espacio arquitectónico, la descomposición de los cuerpos de un bodegón, la vida y la muerte, son a su vez objeto de la investigación que trata de dar un sentido al tiempo lineal en el mundo contemporáneo.
La percepción multisensorial del espacio de la ciudad
Authors: Tomsic Amon Bea
Published: March 2022

El artículo presenta una investigación realizada con estudiantes de Educación primaria de la Facultad de Pedagogía de la Universidad de Ljubljana. Nuestro objetivo era detectar si la percepción e imagen del espacio urbano ha cambiado a través de los años. La prueba contenía once preguntas. El estudiante debía elegir a cuáles responder, para describir su lugar urbano favorito y dejar sin responder aquellas, que no le resultaban significantes. La misma prueba fue realizada en el 2001 y en el 2019. Aquí presentamos la comparación entre ambos resultados. Los mismos fueron analizados en forma cuantitativa y cualitativa. A pesar de que la percepción del espacio es multisensorial, el tacto es uno de los sentidos al que en ambos casos se hizo menos referencia, al contrario de la vista. Nuestra primera suposición era que con el avance de los medios digitales, la percepción del espacio real sería más escueta. Pero en el 2019  hubo un número de estudiantes que dieron información más especifica que en el 2001 y esto permite suponer, que han desarrollado mayor sensibilidad respecto del espacio. A pesar de esto, los resultados generales nos plantean repensar el proceso pedagógico. Algunas propuestas son presentadas en la conclusión.
Symbolic territorialities in a terreiro de candomblé: the morphology of a sacred space
Authors: Santos Maglandyo da Silva , Costa Otávio José Lemos
Published: March 2022

This work highlights the symbolic territorialities of a ‘terreiro de candomblé’ with fluid spatial dimensions, located in the city of Cajazeiras, Paraíba. The experiences are based on the ethnographic field research conducted between January and April. We outline the morphology of the sacred space represented by geosymbols and their meanings, which refer to the mythology of the African òrìṣà, rescued in the ‘terreiro’. We also describe, from the perspective of Costa’s micro-territoriality (2017), geosymbols outside the ‘terreiro’, eventually accessed by ritual occasion, revealing a symbolic extension of the territory that transgresses previously constructed determinations and constructs new identity spaces
Implementation of the North Industrial Center (CIN) in Feira de Santana, BA (Brazil): characteristics, changes, and spatial interactions
Authors: Santos Janio , Bastos Jacqueline de Jesus
Published: March 2022

This paper analyzes the changes in industrial activity in Feira de Santana, especially regarding the implantation of the Centro Industrial Norte (CIN), its characteristics, and socioeconomic consequences. The Centro Industrial Subaé (CIS), the first in the city, was installed in the 1970s. However, over the years, there were interests to expand this dynamic to other areas, such as the Northern Sector, which was not the object of interventions, until then. The installation of the plants took place gradually, starting in 2010 at the CIN, and the choice of the area was due to the location, incentives, and changes in the urban land use law. Industries maintain spatial interactions with other areas and this dynamic attracts new factories, in the context of flexible accumulation
Between Parks and Reserves: the process of creation and participation in the management in state Conservation Units of Amazonas
Authors: Silva Adnilson de Almeida , Coelho Alex Almeida
Published: March 2022

: This study analyzes issues related to the creation and the process of participation of the local population in the management of three state Conservation Units (UCs) in Amazonas. The data were collected in two sustainable use units, Sustainable Development Reserve (RDS) of Uatumã and Juma, and in the Rio Negro Setor Norte State Park (PAREST) in 2011 and 2012. Field surveys were carried out, supported by open interviews and semi-structured, direct, and participant observation on the process of creating the Units and the participation of local populations in the management of UCs. Our data show that, in some cases, the subjects act in the management through a “participative management”, but not participating, as for example in the construction of the management plans, in which the local populations are involved, through “participation passive”, as a source of information or even for the approval of proposals, but without active participation in the process of creating and managing the Unit.
Problems in determining the relevance of underground natural cavities originated in different lithotypes from geological features: legislation inconsistencies
Authors: Massuqueto Laís Luana , Pontes Henrique Simão
Published: March 2022

This paper estimates the relevance of caves developed in different lithological contexts (carbonate, siliciclastic, ferriferous, and granitic) as defined on Decree 6.640/2008 and Normative Instruction # 2/2017 of the Brazilian Ministry of Environment, which considers only geological features. The method was applied in eight caves, two for each lithotype. It was analyzed whether the criteria adopted for the evaluation of caves’ relevance degree are efficient when just the geological features are considered. Analyzing just the geoforms the eight studied cavities were classified as of low relevance, as none reached the minimally significant parameter. However, based on geodiversity inventory we could ascertain that these caves do have important geological elements and could not be classified as of low relevance when analyzing these attributes in isolation. Therefore, there are inconsistencies in IN MMA # 2/2017 for the evaluation of aspects of cave geodiversity, so it is necessary to review the attributes and parameters of this normative aiming at more precise methods, especially those related to the aspects of underground geodiversity.

Conversational AI: Indispensable way to attract and retain customers
Authors: N R Nikitha
Published: March 2022

Conversational AI is a technology that allows artificial intelligence (AI) systems such as Chatbots to engage with people in a human like manner. It enables communication between humans and computers easy and natural by bridging the gap between human and computer language. Recent industry reports indicate that more than 80% of all businesses are considering integrating chatbots within the next five years. Many service providers are already using chatbots, but most applications have focused on cost saving and automation to partially replace human service encounters. However, little is known about the mechanisms and the process of value co-creation enabled by AI. While scholars agree that AI technology significantly changes human activities and human resources, currently we do not have an adequate understanding of how humans and AI technology interact in value co-creation. Thus, the study was conducted to understand the interface between AI and customers, and to analyze the various factors which play pivotal role in better customer satisfaction. Therefore to do this, we used exploratory factor analysis by taking in 11 variables which could possible made an impact on the customers. We devised a structured questionnaire from those 11 variables and responses were taken in 5 point scales. Out of the responses we were able to analyse underlying constructs and analyse the factors which contributes to this cause.
