Eternal Memory Mirrors’: Seventeenth-century Dutch Newsprints of Political Executions
Authors: Warren Maureen
Published: July 2021

Map and newsprint publishers Claes Jansz. Visscher and Herman Allertsz. developed a new kind of wall print in the first decade of the seventeenth century that depicted contemporary political executions and which served as ‘eternal memory mirror[s]’. These prints evince the high value contemporaries placed on proportionate justice: the desire for visual affirmation that the punishment fit the crime. Visscher was keen to put a good face on things, downplaying disorganization, unflattering or unfortunate aspects of executions, and he emphasized events that suggested divine approval. The success of his early execution prints had a profound impact on the format and variety of Visscher’s later military newsprints. The large scale, sophisticated organization of text and image, and superior aesthetic qualities – all strategies borrowed from monumental wall maps – enhanced the commercial and polemical potential of his execution imagery. The article first considers Visscher’s early professional relationships and training in cartographic circles. Then, it analyses his multi-plate compositions and the relationship between image and text in his execution prints from 1619 and 1623, which were related to the Truce Conflicts and fights between Remonstrants and Counter-Remonstrants. Finally, the article considers the implications of viewing execution imagery on the wall.

Published: July 2021

Pouvant être définie comme un art de la médiation, la traduction nous invite à considérer la productivité et la créativité du travail de médiateur. Que ce soit sur le plan linguistique, culturel ou sociologique, les traducteurs et traductrices littéraires transmettent les œuvres en influant sur leur forme, leur signification et leur réception dans la culture cible. À travers l’étude du cas d’Elmar Tophoven, traducteur allemand de Samuel Beckett et du Nouveau Roman, il est possible d’éclairer les multiples facettes composant l’activité de traduction en tant qu’acte de médiation qui se révèle posséder une dimension créative.

Abstract. Between 27 June and 14 July 2019 aerosol layers were observed by the United Kingdom (UK) Raman lidar network in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. The arrival of these aerosol layers in late June caused some concern within the London Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC) as according to dispersion simulations the volcanic plume from the 21 June 2019 eruption of Raikoke was not expected over the UK until early July. Using dispersion simulations from the Met Office Numerical Atmospheric-dispersion Modelling Environment (NAME), and supporting evidence from satellite and in-situ aircraft observations, we show that the early arrival of the stratospheric layers was not due to aerosols from the explosive eruption of the Raikoke volcano, but due to biomass burning smoke aerosols associated with intense forest fires in Alberta, Canada that occurred four days prior to the Raikoke eruption. We use the observations and model simulations to describe the dispersion of both the volcanic and forest fire aerosol clouds, and estimate that the initial Raikoke ash aerosol cloud contained around 15 Tg of volcanic ash, and that the forest fires produced around 0.2 Tg of biomass burning aerosol. The operational monitoring of volcanic aerosol clouds is a vital capability in terms of aviation safety and the synergy of NAME dispersion simulations and lidar data with depolarising capabilities allowed scientists at the Met Office to interpret the various aerosol layers over the UK, and attribute the material to their sources. The use of NAME allowed the identification of the observed stratospheric layers that reached the UK on 27 June as biomass burning aerosol, characterised by a particle linear depolarisation ratio of 9 %, whereas with the lidar alone the latter could have been identified as the early arrival of a volcanic ash/sulphate mixed aerosol cloud. In the case under study, given the low concentration estimates, the exact identification of the aerosol layers would have made little substantive difference to the decision making process within the London VAAC. However, our work shows how the use of dispersion modelling together with multiple observation sources enabled us to create a more complete description of atmospheric aerosol loading.
Is the ocean surface a source of nitrous acid (HONO) in the marine boundary layer?
Authors: Crilley Leigh , Kramer Louisa , Pope Francis , Reed Chris , Lee James , Carpenter Lucy , Hollis Lloyd , Ball Stephen , Bloss William
Published: July 2021

Abstract. Nitrous acid, HONO, is a key net photolytic precursor to OH radicals in the atmospheric boundary later. As OH is the dominant atmospheric oxidant, driving the removal of many primary pollutants and the formation of secondary species, a quantitative understanding of HONO sources is important to predict atmospheric oxidising capacity. While a number of HONO formation mechanisms have been identified, recent work has ascribed significant importance to the dark, ocean-surface mediated conversion of NO2 to HONO in the coastal marine boundary layer. In order to evaluate the role of this mechanism, here we analyse measurements of HONO and related species obtained at two contrasting coastal locations – Cape Verde (Atlantic Ocean), representative of the clean remote tropical marine boundary layer, and Weybourne (United Kingdom), representative of semi-polluted Northern European coastal waters. As expected, higher average concentrations of HONO (70 ppt) were observed in marine air for the more anthropogenically influenced Weybourne location compared to Cape Verde (HONO < 5 ppt). At both sites, the approximately constant HONO/NO2 ratio at night pointed to a low importance for the dark ocean-surface mediated conversion of NO2 into HONO, whereas the midday maximum in the HONO/NO2 ratios indicated significant contributions from photo-enhanced HONO formation mechanisms (or other sources). We obtained an upper limit to the rate coefficient of dark ocean-surface HONO-to-NO2 conversion of CHONO = 0.0011 ppb hr−1 from the Cape Verde observations; this is a factor of 5 lower than the slowest rate reported previously. These results point to significant geographical variation in the predominant HONO formation mechanisms in marine environments and indicate that caution is required when extrapolating the importance of such mechanisms from individual study locations to assess regional and/or global impacts on oxidising capacity. As a significant fraction of atmospheric processing occurs in the marine boundary layer, particularly in the tropics, better constraint of the possible ocean surface source of HONO is important for a quantitative understanding of chemical processing of primary trace gases in the global atmospheric boundary layer and associated impacts upon air pollution and climate.
Atypical, high-diversity assemblages of foraminifera in a mangrove estuary in northern Brazil
Authors: Sariaslan Nisan , Langer Martin R.
Published: July 2021

Abstract. Mangrove forests are extremely productive ecosystems, are
sources and sinks of organic carbon, and provide essential services both to
the marine environment and people. We have studied the composition and
species richness of modern benthic foraminiferal assemblages from mangrove
swamps along the Mamanguape River in Paraíba, northern Brazil. Sampling
points for foraminifera were selected to acquire information on the
composition of foraminiferal assemblages from dense mangrove stands
collected along a river transect. Almost 100 species of benthic foraminifera
were identified within the shallow mangrove habitats. The large number of
identified mangrove taxa is the highest recorded so far for true mangrove
habitats. The high species richness rivals shallow-water assemblages
recorded from nearby offshore and reef environments and indicates that a
particularly large number of species is capable of growing and flourishing under
multiple stressor conditions. Numerical analysis of the faunal
assemblages shows that specific taxa, which were previously known to be
uncommon in mangrove environments, are abundant in the Mamanguape River
estuary. The atypical foraminiferal fauna found in the Mamanguape River
estuary resembles shallow-water offshore assemblages, is characterized by
high percent abundances of perforate and miliolid taxa, and contains only
very few of the otherwise typical and numerically abundant agglutinated
mangrove taxa. The unusual structure of the assemblages recorded provides
insight into what combination of environmental variables controls their
composition and novel perspectives to reconstruct past mangrove
environments. Distribution, diversity, and species-specific analysis will
provide guidance on the use of Brazilian mangrove foraminifera as indicators
for the strength of tidal activity, pollution, and anoxia in coastal waters
and sea-level reconstructions.
Generating reliable estimates of tropical cyclone induced coastal hazards along the Bay of Bengal for current and future climates using synthetic tracks
Authors: Leijnse Tim Willem Bart , Giardino Alessio , Nederhoff Kees , Caires Sofia
Published: July 2021

Abstract. Deriving reliable estimates of design water levels and wave conditions resulting from tropical cyclones is a challenging problem of high relevance for, among others, coastal and offshore engineering projects and risk assessment studies. Tropical cyclone geometry and wind speeds have been recorded for the past few decades only, therefore resulting in poorly reliable estimates of the extremes, especially at regions characterized by a low number of past tropical cyclone events. In this paper, this challenge is overcome by using synthetic tropical cyclone tracks and wind fields generated by the open source tool TCWiSE (Tropical Cyclone Wind Statistical Estimation), to create thousands of realizations representative for 1,000 years of tropical cyclone activity for the Bay of Bengal. Each of these realizations is used to force coupled storm surge and wave simulations by means of the processed-based Delft3D Flexible Mesh Suite. It is shown that the use of synthetic tracks provides reliable estimates of the statistics of the first-order hazard (i.e. wind speed) compared to the statistics derived for historical tropical cyclones. Based on estimated wind fields, second-order hazards (i.e. storm surge and waves) are computed. The estimates of the extreme values derived for wind speed, wave height and storm surge are shown to converge within the 1,000 years of simulated cyclone tracks. Comparing second-order hazard estimates based on historical and synthetic tracks show that, for this case study, the use of historical tracks (a deterministic approach) leads to an underestimation of the mean computed storm surge up to −30 %. Differences between the use of synthetic versus historical tracks are characterized by a large spatial variability along the Bay of Bengal, where regions with a lower probability of occurrence of tropical cyclones show the largest difference in predicted storm surge and wave heights. In addition, the use of historical tracks leads to much larger uncertainty bands in the estimation of both storm surges and wave heights, with confidence intervals being +80 % larger compared to those estimated by using synthetic tracks (probabilistic approach). Based on the same tropical cyclone realizations, the effect that changes in tropical cyclone frequency and intensity, possibly resulting from climate change, may have on modelled storm surge and wave heights were computed. An increase in tropical cyclone frequency of +25.6 % and wind intensity of +1.6 %, based on literature values, could result in an increase of storm surge and wave heights of +11 % and +9 % respectively. This suggest that climate change could increase tropical cyclone induced coastal hazards more than just the actual increase in maximum wind speeds.
Assimilation of ice compactness data in a strong coupling regime in the ocean – sea ice coupled model
Authors: Kaurkin Maxim N. , Kalnitski Leonid Y. , Ushakov Konstantin V. , Ibrayev Rashit A.
Published: July 2021

Abstract. The Arctic Ocean plays an important role in the global climate system, where sea ice regulates the exchange of heat, moisture and momentum between the atmosphere and the ocean. A comprehensive analysis and forecast of the Arctic ocean system requires a detailed numerical ocean and sea ice coupled model supplemented by assimilation of observational data at appropriate time scales. A new operative ocean – ice state forecast system was developed and implemented. It consists of the INMIO4.1 ocean general circulation model and the CICE5.1 sea ice dynamics and thermodynamics model with common spatial resolution of 0.25°. For the exchange of boundary conditions and service actions (data storage, time synchronization, etc.), the coupled model uses the Compact Modeling Framework (CMF3.0). Data assimilation is implemented in the form of the Data Assimilation Service (DAS) based on the Ensemble Optimal Interpolation (EnOI) method. This technique allows to simultaneously correct the ocean (temperature, salinity, surface level) and ice (concentration) model fields in the DAS service, so they are coordinated not only through the exchange of boundary conditions, but already at the stage of data assimilation (i.e. strong coupling data assimilation). Experiments with the INMIO – CICE model show that the developed algorithm provides a significant improvement in the accuracy of forecasting the state of the ice field in the Arctic Ocean.
Dynamic robust active wake control
Authors: Kanev Stoyan , Bot Edwin
Published: July 2021

Abstract. Active Wake Control (AWC) is a strategy for operating wind farms in a way to maximize the overall power production and/or reduce structural loading on the wind turbines. Many recent studies indicate that this technology, and more specifically the so-called wake redirection approach to AWC, have a significant potential for increasing the annual energy production by up to a few percentage points. The current state-of-the-art approach is to optimize AWC for a range of static wind conditions, which is expected to perform sub-optimally in real-life due to the continuous variations of the wind resource and the very slow yaw dynamics of the turbines. Recent work has addressed this variability in a robust design setting with the focus on maximizing the energy capture (robust AWC). This paper continues on this line of research, and develops a dynamic robust AWC strategy that aims to optimize the balance between maximum power production (requiring increased level of yawing) and minimum loads on the yaw drive (requiring limited yaw motion). It is shown with a realistic case study that the developed dynamic robust AWC can result in a large reduction of the loading on the yaw drive while at the same time improving the overall power gain, as compared to the conventional nominal AWC.
Aeroelastic loads on a 10 MW turbine exposed to extreme events selected from a year-long large-eddy simulation over the North Sea
Authors: Schepers Gerard , van Dorp Pim , Verzijlbergh Remco , Baas Peter , Jonker Harmen
Published: July 2021

Abstract. In this article the aeroelastic loads on a 10 MW turbine in response to extreme events (low-level jet, shear, veer and turbulence intensity) selected from a year-long large-eddy simulation (LES) on a site at the North Sea are evaluated. These events are generated with a high-fidelity LES wind model and fed into an aeroelastic tool using two different aerodynamic models: a model based on blade element momentum (BEM) and a free vortex wake model. Then the aeroelastic loads are calculated and compared with the loads from the IEC
standards. It was found that the loads from all these events remain within
those of the IEC design loads. Moreover, the accuracy of BEM-based methods
for modelling such wind conditions showed a considerable overprediction
compared to the free vortex wake model for the events with extreme shear
and/or veer.

Published: July 2021

The experience of constructing a method for short-range forecasting of water discharge in the Kama River basin is described. The forecast method is based on the HBV-96 conceptual model of runoff formation in a watershed with optimized parameters, as well as on the algorithm for the correction of operational forecasts. It is shown that if the runoff formation model parameters are optimized and the forecast correction algorithm is applied, the model simulates variations in water discharge at gaging stations with high efficiency and can be used for operational short-range hydrological forecasting and for the evaluation of the hazard of expected hydrological conditions on the rivers. The implementation of the forecasting method allows obtaining water discharge forecasts for gaging stations in the Kama River basin with a lead time up to 3 days using meteorological forecasts with a corresponding lead time.

Travelling in the traces of…: The travelogue and its pre-texts
Authors: Pfister Manfred
Published: July 2021

Travelling is always a travelling in traces – looking for traces of past cultures or following

the traces of previous travellers. These traces can be material or textual, visual,

performative or mnemonic. In some of the best of 20th travel writing, such quests for traces

do, however, take an inward and self-reflective turn in which travel writing becomes a form

of self-writing and self-staging.

In my essay, I will survey this development from the eighteenth century to the present,

beginning with Grand Tour accounts of journeys to Italy to then focus on modernist and

postmodernist travel writing. This will take us not only to Etruscan Places with DH

Lawrence or Patagonia with Bruce Chatwin, to Asia Minor on Alexander’s Path with Freya

Stark or to the Caribbean with Amryl Johnson but back into these writer’s lives, their

deepest memories and desires. What should emerge in my readings is how writing the

‘Other’ can become a way of writing the Self
The travel selfie: Exploring the writer’s vision in contemporary travel writing
Authors: Jatschka Stefan
Published: July 2021

In 2013, the Oxford Dictionary declared ‘selfie’ the word of the year, defining this

phenomenon as ’a photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically one taken with a

smartphone or webcam and shared via social media’ (BBC News, 2013). Instagram and

personal travel blogs seem to be some of the most popular platforms enabling travel

writers to express themselves through selfies, aka travel selfies. Many studies revolving

around the culture of travel selfies have been conducted to better understand tourist

behaviour, tourist marketing and consumer habits. However, there is a lack of

interdisciplinary research surrounding this complex socio-cultural phenomenon. Travel

selfies, although popular, often spark controversy and in some places, travel selfies are

prohibited for safety reasons or to show respect at memorial sites. Selfies are often

considered narcissistic and therefore, sometimes frowned upon by society. In this

paper, I explore the larger socio-cultural complexities of travel selfies and explore what

a travel selfie may contribute to a writer’s travel account by investigating how the rise

of the travel selfie has shaped the travel writer’s personal vision that usually evolves

throughout the writing process.
Travel writing: Always has always will be
Authors: Lineen Jono
Published: July 2021

Travel writing has changed over the past fifty years to reflect the fact, as Jan Morris has

said, that ‘nearly everyone has been nearly everywhere’ (Morris 2009). In the 21st century,

travel writing has become a medium for authors to investigate their own lives as much as

to explore exotic destinations. Examples of this ’recording (of) the experience rather than

the event’ (Morris 2009) in travel writing include: John Krakauer’s Into the Wild (1996)

and Into Thin Air (1997), Pico Iyer’s Global Soul (2001), Robert MacFarlane’s _The Old

Ways_ (2012), Cheryl Strayed’s Wild (2013) and Raynor Winn’s The Salt Path (2018).

The switch to a more character-focused, experiential-based style of travel writing reflects

the genre’s roots in one of the world’s oldest story structures, namely the journey

narrative. It is through this connection that we can identify some of the universal

structures behind successful contemporary travel writing; the ability to look objectively

at life by placing oneself in a liminal space (Turner 1964, Mahdi 1987), and the fact that

travel and narrative is in all of us through our ancestral memories of Homo sapiens’

seventy-millennia long history of migration around the globe (Harari 2011, Mithen 2005,

Tattersall 2008).
Understory: writing and building
Authors: Carter Paul
Published: July 2021

Exploiting the traditional association of rhetoric and architecture, this chapter argues that a

different kind of writing (the silva) might express a different kind of dwelling place. A literary term for miscellany, silva also means wood, and the concrete context of the essay is the colonial fate of the Irish whose territorial and cultural subjugation was linked to the destruction of the woods said to define their cultural identity. A recent residency in Galway weighed these mythopoetic identifications against overwhelming evidence of environmental alienation, and asked what discourse or under story, could begin the process of ‘psychic reforestation.’ A first step might involve re-reading key episodes in the emergence of Irish national consciousness: the ambiguous heritage of Lady Gregory, Coole House and W.B. Yeats is discussed. The essay also revisits a past ‘sculpture in woodland’ program and documents a contemporary social artwork made by C.J. Conway. Community interest generated by her act of tree repair created a place where psychic homelessness, the colonial legacy of dispossession, could be addressed therapeutically.
Decadent by design: interplays between architecture and decadent literature
Authors: Smithey Lori
Published: July 2021

This paper examines the architectural dimensions of fin-de-siècle decadent literature

through the lens of architectural theory in order to expand our understanding of the

operations of the genre and its relationship to a larger tradition of decadence. It begins

with a cursory overview of theories linking literature, design, and decadence in the

eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; it analyzes literary works by Gustave Flaubert,

Émile Zola, and Joris-Karl Huysmans; and it concludes with a closer look at the

correlations between decadent themes and architectural space in texts by Edmond de

Goncourt. Ultimately this paper argues that the built environment is as involved in the

staging of decadent design as much as it is a register of design born of decadence.

Authors: Maisa Putra Deni , Alfauzain Alfauzain
Published: July 2021

Microsoft Access (also known as Access) is an application used to process databases. The implementation of storage at the Primary Health Center is still manual if the patient's medical record file is not found on the storage shelf, the officer will make a temporary file which will cause the accumulation of files on the shelf. There is still a misplaced medical record file (Missfile) due to the absence of a tracer being stored as a control for releasing medical record files and borrowing medical record files. The purpose of this research is how to design a tracer using Microsoft Access in the medical record unit at Primary Health Center, Padang. This research is about designing a tracer in the medical record unit at Primary Health Center in Padang. This type of research is Research and Development, conducting in-depth interviews, observation, and testing at the storage area and interviews with 1 head of administration, 1 head of medical records, and 2 storage officers. This research was conducted from 25 July to 2 August 2019 at Padang Primary Health Center. Based on the research results, it was found that the identification of tracer data elements in a computerized manner was more complete in implementing the application by developing the UML (Unified Modeling Language) method, namely by using use case diagrams and activity diagrams, as well as data flow diagrams. Efficiency is obtained by means of manually, 1 and computerized 3.5 so that the tracer efficiency is more computerized while the effectiveness is in accordance with what the officers expect. The conclusion in this study found that the officers were satisfied and the application was as expected because it was easy to use. Judging from the test results, this tracer application can be used, seen from the expectations and satisfaction of the officers, the data is appropriate and can improve performance, effectiveness, and efficiency in service. Therefore, the researchers hope that this application can be implemented in services and developed again in the future.
The Inclusion of Health in County Comprehensive Planning
Authors: Park Sang Chul , Coutts Christopher , Lee Se-Jin
Published: July 2021

This article explores what drives communities in United States to include health objectives in their comprehensive plans. By using a place-based approach, this model is able to take into account variables such as health status, social equity, political institutions, and built environment. The findings suggest that communities are more likely to adopt health as a goal based on their political institutional structure and environmental quality (e.g., air pollution) than based on health status and social equity factors. Therefore, communities are responding to poor health and heightened mortality per se but rather to environmental factors that are associated with poor health outcomes.
Possibilities of MR-mammography in Diagnosis of Breast Reconstruction following Complex Cancer Treatment (Literature Review with Own Clinical Observations)

Published: July 2021

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most effective method of diagnosing breast pathology due to its high resolution in the study of soft tissues and high sensitivity based on the contrast effect. There is still no consensus on the choice of the optimal method of examination of patients after mastectomy and breast reconstruction. Changes in breast tissue that are associated with surgery and radiation therapy cause difficulties in interpreting mammographic and ultrasound images. MRI using a high-field tomograph (> 1 T), a specialized coil and a paramagnetic contrast agent is highly informative in the detection and differential diagnosis of recurrent formations against the background of infiltrative and scarring changes.
O assédio sexual no Brasil em locais públicos e a sua visibilidade através dos meios de comunicações televisivos e das mídias sociais

Published: July 2021

Há décadas as mulheres têm sido vítimas de violências diante da sociedade preconceituosa, machista e discriminatória na qual vivem e por séculos as mulheres continuam lutando por liberdade e igualdade. O objetivo dessa pesquisa é analisar a visibilidade do assédio sexual decorrente no Brasil, considerando a importância social da repercussão nos meios de comunicação que geram a mobilização de grupos feministas como forma de possibilitar a visão de mulheres que diariamente sofrem esse tipo de assédio e muitas vezes não conseguem identificar. Para tal, a metodologia escolhida para a pesquisa em andamento será análise documental, e uma análise do reality show Big Brother Brasil 2020 que permite colher informações junto com a observação avaliando a representatividade feminina e a postura de homens protagonizando cenas comuns ao nosso dia a dia. A conclusão desse trabalho indica que a visibilidade tem força e a importância dos meios de comunicações são fundamentais para ajudar mulheres a identificar determinados assédios e romper com o machismo existente.
Feminismo no Brasil: lutas, conquistas, direitos e críticas

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar preliminarmente, de forma sucinta, um histórico da chegada e estabelecimento do feminismo no Brasil para expor paralelos com o desenvolvimento do estudo dos Direitos Humanos, demonstrando alterações legislativas brasileiras e outras transformações decorrentes desse processo. Tais alterações, que serão demonstradas no decorrer do texto, devem ser evidenciadas e tomadas como exemplo para questões futuras e são partes de um processo que ainda está em andamento em nosso país, havendo até então diversas outras questões a serem trabalhadas, sendo este, entre outros, o principal objetivo deste estudo: demonstrar a relevância de alterações e o que ainda deve ser transformado. Isso está relacionado ao fato de que a história foi, na maior parte das vezes, contada pelas classes dominantes: o homem, branco e burguês, portanto, pode ser colocada em suspeição, como apontado por Maria Amélia de Almeida Telles. Serão estabelecidos como principal foco os desafios e necessidades da mulher brasileira, mantendo sempre uma visão crítica e fundamentada.
Direitos Humanos: uma visão das pessoas em situação de rua e o assistencialismo prestado pelo município de Florianópolis
Authors: de Oliveira Cattani Guilherme
Published: July 2021

O trabalho que se segue tem como objeto de pesquisa as pessoas em situação de rua do Município de Florianópolis, cujo objetivo é demonstrar a relação existente entre as políticas públicas desenvolvidas em prol desta parcela da população e os protestos do Movimento Nacional da População de Rua – MNPR, na manifestação, ocorrida no dia 19 de maio de 2019. Sob a luz do princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana, prevista no inciso III, do artigo 1º, da Constituição da República Federativa do Brasil de 1988 e da teoria crítica dos direitos humanos proposta pelo filósofo Joaquín Herrera Flores em seu livro “A (Re)invenção dos Direitos Humanos”, seria possível afirmar que as políticas públicas realizadas na capital catarinense são condizentes com as reais demandas do movimento população de rua? A pesquisa se deu através da investigação nos sites online da Prefeitura Municipal de Florianópolis, a partir da análise das principais unidades responsáveis por prestar atendimento as pessoas em situação de rua (Secretaria da Assistência Social e Centro Pop), o único documento encontrado no site oficial do governo: Projeto de Atendimento as Pessoas em Situação de Rua - FLORIPA SOCIAL, bem como, relatos de reivindicações por direitos por parte de integrantes do movimento – MNPR. Sabendo disso, é possível concluir que os processos de lutas por direitos pela população de rua da capital demonstram insatisfação com a visão, apenas, assistencialista do Município de Florianópolis e acreditam estar longe de se ver garantida, a tão sonhada, dignidade da pessoa humana.

Published: July 2021

The main idea of extracting dyes from plant (natural) sources is to avoid the environmental pollution. Natural dye from plants has been given much interest in recent years due to the threat and harmful effects are used by synthetic dyes and environmental awareness created by researchers. The drawback of synthetic dyes is that they are not durable as they do not completely fix on all kind of fabric and remaining dyestuff drained into rivers, becoming the cause of water pollution as well as they cause diseases in human being like cancer and allergies. On the other hand, natural dyes are eco-friendly and find use in the colouring of textiles, drugs and cosmetics etc. Owing to their non-toxic effects, they are also even used for colouring various food products. Mordents are used in natural dyes which enhance the colour of dye and stick it on fabric. Due to lack of availability of precise technical knowledge on the extracting and dyeing technique, it has not commercially succeeded like the synthetic dyes. Hence, the present study was planned to isolate eco-friendly dyes from the bark of the plants (Ziziphus jujube Mill., Albizialebbeck L., Cordia dichotoma G Forst., Ficus benghalensis L. and Cassia fistula L.) and the roots of Ficus benghalensis L. Later on the dyes were applied on silk fabric by using metamordating technique. Then fastness properties like rubbing, heating, washing and sunlight were evaluated by using gray scale. F. benghalensis showed excellent fastness properties. Z. jujube showed series of colour variations on silk. Therefore, the bark and root of these plants can be successfully used for dyeing of silk. Natural dyes worldwide should be increased to prevent us from pollution and other harmful effects.
Fruiting Season, Flowering and Peel Characteristics of Leucaena spp. Analytical Study (B)
Authors: Hassan Al-Bugg Younis Saeed
Published: July 2021

During the flowering seasons the species varied greatly and the seasons were seldom repeated (August-October) with only three species and two species (April-June), which means that they continued throughout the months of the year. Three colours of the flower were observed in total with gradient within these three colours distributed to the studied species. In terms of the colour of the peel, two colours were distinguished only in favour of the brown-gray colour, while the forms of cracks on the outer peel surface were divided into three forms. On the other hand, each type was independent when examining the colour of the inner peel. The shape of the cross section of the branch exceeded 81.8% for the circular shape on the angular shape, while two types of branch thickness were recorded and exactly the same for texture. It was possible to observe two forms of branching of the flower-bearing branches, which were very similar to those of the two forms (non-branching and branching) with a large difference between the two forms of the flower's apex, at a rate of 20 times the round shape and 90.9% of the shape of the flower. Two flowers shoots growing types were observed named (Auxotelic and an Anauxotelic). Three main colours, white, yellow and pink were distinguished and the flower head diameter varied widely between (6.5-30 mm). Flowers season seems to be in all of the year. Outer peel thickness also varied from thick to thin to intermediate. Three forms of peel fissures were found and 54.5% to mid-brown colour. Inner peel colour can be a good item to be a key of classification of this tree. Correlation coefficient between peel thickness and outer peel colour was 0.935.

Pear pulp and grapes juice were used in different ratios (100:0, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40, 50:50) for the preparation of leather. The treatments were prepared with different concentration of pulp and constant level of sucrose and preservatives. The experiment was laid out in a complete randomized design (CRD). The effects of storage and treatments were studied for three months of storage with an interval of 15 days. Various parameters such as moisture, percent acidity, total soluble solids, water activity, ascorbic acid content, reducing sugar, non-reducing sugar and sensory attributes i.e. colour, taste, texture and overall acceptability were studied. Significant differences were observed in all the studied parameters. A decrease was recorded in moisture (16.02 to 13.76%), ascorbic acid content (13.21 to 6.64 mg/100g), non-reducing sugar (67.02 to 64.76%) and water activity (0.50 to 0.45), while an increase was recorded in titratable acidity (0.88 to 1.01%), TSS (76.68 to 79.05 °brix) and reducing sugar (11.43 to 11.85%). Base on organoleptic evaluation T3 was found most acceptable during storage. The combination of 70% pear pulp and 30% grapes juice for leather preparation proved to be the best combination in terms of extending the shelf life and improving the quality of pear and grapes blended leather during storage.

Objective: Checking the sociodemographic and clinical factors associated with the prevalence of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) in a maternity school.

Materials and methods: A quantitative cross-sectional study in a maternity hospital in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. In data collection, we used a standardized form that contained sociodemographic and clinical data from the medical records of 83 women for the period of 2018. Stata version 14 software was used in the analyses. Bivariate analysis was conducted using Pearson’s or Fisher’s exact tests. Poisson regression was performed with robust variation in multivariate analysis. Prevalence ratios (PR) and respective 95 % confidence intervals were estimated. The significance level of the tests was 5 %.

Results: The prevalence of PPH was 38.6 % and 25.6 % for atony as the cause. In the bivariate analysis, there was an association between PPH and non-breastfeeding in the first hour of life (p = 0.039). In the multivariate analysis, it was identified that multiparous women had an increase in the prevalence of PPH by almost twice (PR = 1.97). Not breastfeeding in the first hour of life increased this prevalence more than four times (PR = 4.16).

Conclusions: Monitoring multiparous women during birth care and encouraging breastfeeding in the first hour of life may decrease the prevalence of PPH.

transcript: An e-Journal of Literary and Cultural Studies is a bi-annual research journal started in 2021. The pandemic era that we have entered into in the second decade of the twenty-first century is marked by several changes in our social behavior and also the way we perceive this world. With restriction on human movement during the pandemic turn, there is a spurt in virtual human activities. Webinars and e-Journals have become safe and convenient modes of disseminating knowledge and information and the new normal. Adapting to the current trends and necessity, the Department of English, Bodoland University has proposed to launch this e-Journal. The Journal will aspire to reach out to scholars across the globe and provide a platform for the dissemination of cutting-edge research findings related to literatures in English and cultural studies. The reason for creating such an interdisciplinary and wider canvas is to facilitate an understanding of the cultures and literatures of the world and their inter-relationship. In the recent past, literatures of only a few nations dominated the world scenario thereby auguring the ideological moorings of those nations on the cultural and literary front; however, in the past few decades, the literatures of the post-colonial nations have made its presence felt all over the world. These literatures in English and literatures in English translation give us an alternative perspective of literary and cultural events of what the academic world calls the “global south.”

The first issue of transcript published in June 2021 brings together a collection of five research articles and a book review on diverse topics of contemporary relevance. The contributors range from senior faculty members to promising young researchers who have expertise in their respective areas of research. This inaugural issue presents essays dealing with the latest research advances in the field of Environmental Humanities, political and ideological criticism throu

Published: July 2021

The site of Qalet Hamra was well known in Zarqa but it never attracted archaeologists and surveyors untila few years ago,possibly due to its location on a spur dominating the bifurcations between Wadi az-Zarqa and Wadi Shomar, a sort of shortcut leading straight ward to the west, in direction of the Jordan Valley.Moreover it was nearby a major ford across the river, which both banks were caravan tracks in antiquity. In 2015and 2018 Sapienza University of Rome and the Department of Antiquities of Jordan surveyed, which allowed to identify it as a small caravanseraidating back from the Mameluk period, even though earlier pottery finds may suggest that the site was occupied at least from the Late Roman/Early Byzantine times.
„LE DOLCI ACQUE DEL FIUME‟. RIFLESSIONI FILOLOGICHE SULL‟ARABO AL-FURĀTE SULLA SUA RADICE FRT
Authors: Petrantoni Giuseppe
Published: July 2021

The Arabic word furātoccurs only three times in the Qur‟an denoting the “sweet (fresh) waters” of the river in contrastto the saltwaters of the see. Moreover, the adjective with the definite article, al-Furāt, identifies the Euphrates River. The aim of this article is to establish if an etymological relationship between furātand al-Furātexists. The adjective furātderives from the verb form farutameaning “to be sweet (referring to the water)”,thereforetheproblem is to establish if the qualitative verb faruta, and its adjective furāt, is related to other verbs ofthe root offrt/prtor if it originatedfrom the adjective furātas a denominative verb. The rootfrt/prtmeaning “sweet in relation to the water” isnot present in other Semitic languages as Hebrew and Aramaic. On the contrary, in Arabic al-Furātderives from Sumerian Buranumand Akkadian Purattumindicating the Euphrates River as theriver wheresweet(fresh)waters flow; later the name of the river changed into theadjective furātmeaning “sweet waters” and al-Furātrefers to the Euphrateas “the sweetriver”. In addition, the Greek form,Euphrates,mayhaveoriginatedfrom Old Persian Ufrātuwhere the initial U-could have been a reinterpretation of the Sumerian determinative hid-(ID2)“river”; later it was transformed into U-< Persian prefix HU-“good, well”,so the Greeks understood *eu-frat“the good (sweet) river”.
SOME REMARKS ON THE ACCUSATIVE IN OLD PERSIAN
Authors: Benvenuto Maria Carmela , Pompeo Flavia
Published: July 2021

The most important functions of the accusative in Old Persian are consistent with those in other ancient Indo-European languages: it marks the direct object of transitive verbs, and can express the spatial notions of goaland path, as well as the temporal notion of duration. Besides these functions, there are other, in some way ‘rare’ or ‘particular’ occurrences of the Old Persian accusative that have not yet been explained, or not explained convincingly. This paper aims to investigate two interesting uses of the accusative: the double accusative construction and the mām kāmaconstruction. The following conclusions are reached regarding the semantic roles and the functions of the accusative case in the constructions under consideration: a) a higher degree of affectedness may account for the use of thedoubleaccusative in ditransitives with some classes of verbs; b) the mām kāmaconstruction, in turn, is a construction with a modal function, and there are some indications that in this instance the accusative could be a non-canonical subject
