ROLE OF MARINE INSURANCE ON MARINE TRADE GROWTH: A CRITIQUE OF LITERATURE
Authors: Kajwang Ben
Published: July 2022

Purpose: Marine insurance is a form of civil contract in which the insurer makes the promise, in exchange for the insurance payment, to the insured person in whose favor the contract was established to compensate them for any losses they may have had as a result of the occurrence of hazards or accidents. The goal of the study is to determine the role of marine insurance on marine trade growth.

Methodology: This was accomplished through the use of a desktop literature review. The use of Google Scholar was utilized in order to locate seminal references and journal articles that were pertinent to the investigation. Papers that were published no more than ten years prior were required to meet the inclusion requirements.

Findings: The field of marine insurance is associated with insuring cargo that is being transported by sea, air, road, or rail; with insuring ships of varying types and sizes, ranging from pleasure craft to oceangoing commercial vessels; and with insuring liabilities that are associated with the transportation of cargo. There is an increased likelihood of risks occurring everywhere in the world.

Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: Since the performance outcome of marine insurance companies can have implications for the continued existence of shipping and other maritime businesses, the paper makes the recommendation that more specific policy interventions should be directed at the complete removal of impediments in the operating environment of marine insurance firms. In addition, policymakers should work on developing solutions that would, in some way, mitigate the adverse impact that insurance policies have on foreign trade.
Discurso literário
Authors: Nascimento Jarbas
Published: July 2022

Este artigo propõe como tema um estudo das possibilidades de concretização de um enlace entre a Análise do Discurso de linha francesa e a Literatura, instigando debates epistemológicos e dissolvendo impasses sobre a hipótese do discurso literário. Tratamos do desafio de romper o distanciamento entre Linguística e Literatura, há muito tempo afastadas, nos ambientes intelectuais, talvez, por conta de um rigor científico exigido para ambos os campos. Para quebrar essa ruptura, exigem-se competências e empenhos que vão além de questões estritamente discursivas e culturais, para incluir, na análise de diferentes textos, um investimento na construção de posicionamentos, na interlíngua, no código linguageiro, no enunciador e no processo criativo empreendido pelo autor. A partir disso, examinamos as particularidades do discurso literário, ressignificando-o na comunidade discursiva, a fim de desfazer uma crise de ruptura e perspectivar um aparato teórico-metodológico que unam esses dois campos. Os resultados desse trabalho evidenciam que a força do paradigma da interdisciplinaridade proposta por Kuhn e a hipótese de Maingueneau para o discurso literário ajudam-nos a superar o textualismo e apreender o literário em um cenário mais amplo, onde se tornam inseparáveis o texto, as condições sócio-históricas de sua produção e circulação, o dizer e o dito.
Metalinguagem e criatividade no romance Enervadas, de Chrysanthème
Authors: Albuquerque Paula
Published: July 2022

Este artigo investiga a metalinguagem enquanto perspectiva idiossincrática do ato de escrever. A partir do romance Enervadas, publicado em 1922 e reeditado em 2019, livro da escritora Chrysanthème - pseudônimo de Maria Cecília de Melo Vasconcelos-, cogitamos a hipótese da autora fornecer ao público leitor, pistas e percepções da ponderação crítica e intelectual na elaboração de uma obra literária, algo sutil que atravessa um livro, por exemplo, e movimenta a história para além de sua ficção.
Uma análise semiolinguística dos processos de identificação e dramatização no discurso literário de Fontes Ibiapina
Authors: Da Silva Castelo Branco Luis Felipe , Benvindo de Moura João
Published: July 2022

A análise do discurso literário amplia o entendimento de como se dá o processo de produção de sentidos no universo ficcional. Considerando isso, este trabalho busca oferecer uma análise semiolinguística do discurso literário de Fontes Ibiapina. Para tanto, selecionamos como corpus a sua obra Vida Gemida em Sambambaia (1985), um clássico romance regionalista sobre a passagem da seca no sertão piauiense. Trata-se de um estudo de natureza aplicada, de abordagem qualitativa, descritivo quanto aos objetivos, bibliográfico e documental no tocante aos procedimentos de coleta de dados. Como base teórica, utilizamos do arcabouço teórico-metodológico da Teoria Semiolinguística, principalmente dos trabalhos de Charaudeau (2007, 2010, 2016, 2017). Desse modo, procuramos identificar a presença das categorias do ethos e pathos, através dos procedimentos de identificação e dramatização, como estratégias discursivas para a encenação dessa narrativa. Como resultados, observamos a constante presença de um ethos coletivo na identificação dos personagens, baseado nas imagens de sofrimento, tradição, necessidade e pobreza. Aliado a isso, notamos uma predominância da tópica da dor para a construção de sua dramatização. Contudo, demonstramos a aplicabilidade da Semiolinguística para o trabalho com o discurso literário, reforçando que ele também funciona a partir de uma problemática de influência.
análise do discurso e literatura: proposta de leitura do clássico Um menino no espelho
Authors: Abreu-Aoki Raquel Lima de
Published: July 2022

O menino no espelho, romance de Fernando Sabino, é narrado pelo personagem principal, Fernando, mesmo nome do escritor. Muitos são os traços biográficos do autor doados à narrativa, mesclando no texto ficção e realidade. O protagonista partilha com o leitor suas histórias de vida, sobretudo as vividas na infância. Ao contar tais experiências, ele as enquadra em um espaço de ressignificações. Interessa-nos compreender como essas ressignificações são organizadas e produzem efeitos de sentido na tessitura textual. Para isso, recorremos às categorias da Análise do Discurso, a saber a Semiolinguística e os Modos de organização do discurso de Charaudeau (2009).

The Role of School Based Management and Students’ Academic Performance in Secondary Schools in Owo Local Government Area of Ondo State, Nigeria
Authors: Ayeni Adeolu Joshua , Bamire Felicia Bosede
Published: July 2022

The perceived inadequacies in the decentralization of administrative power and authority to the school-based management committee seems to hamper quality education service delivery and is partly responsible for the relatively low level of students’ academic performance in Nigerian public secondary schools. This study therefore examined the key roles performed by the school-based management (SBM) in the aspects of decision-making, physical plant planning, school-community relations, coordination of academic program and policy intervention, as well as implication of these key roles on students’ academic performance in secondary schools in Owo Local Government, Ondo State, Nigeria. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. Respondents comprised 99 key members of the SBM randomly sampled from nine public secondary schools. Data were collected using School Based Management Questionnaire [SBMQ] and Students’ Academic Performance Inventory [SAPI]. Two research questions and one hypothesis guided the study. Data were analyzed using percentage, mean and multiple regression analysis. The result indicated that the school-based management committee made moderate contributions in all the different dimensions of the key roles that are performed in secondary schools. The result further revealed that a combination of the key roles of SBM jointly accounted for 28.6% (0.286) contribution to students’ academic performance at < 0.05. The study concluded that the School Based Management Committee (SBMC) made a moderate contribution to the school management which accounted for a low contribution to the students’ academic performance; limited contributions of the SBMC were also recorded in the award of school projects, capacity training of teachers and selection of students’ textbooks. It was recommended that the Government through the Ministry of Education should reinvigorate SBM practice and prioritize the significant inputs of the school-based management committee to enhance the quality of decision-making and mobilize adequate resources for infrastructural development and support for teachers’ capacity training to improve the quality of teaching-learning process for better academic performance of students in public secondary schools.
PRÁTICAS CORPORAIS DE AVENTURA COMO CONTEÚDO NAS AULAS DE EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA ESCOLAR: REVISÃO SISTEMÁTICA
Authors: Carvalho Silva Brenda , Sá Oliveira Lima Gustavo de , Vilanova-Campelo Regina Célia
Published: July 2022

As práticas corporais de aventura são realizadas no lazer, turismo, e recentemente sugeridas pela Base Nacional Comum Curricular, como um possível conteúdo a ser trabalhado na educação física escolar, no ensino fundamental do 6º ao 9º ano. Objetiva-se neste estudo, conhecer e refletir sobre as possibilidades de introdução deste conteúdo no ambiente escolar, identificando possíveis desafios enfrentados pelos professores, evidenciando a importância da prática pelos escolares. Para isso, adotou-se uma revisão sistemática da literatura. A busca pelos artigos ocorreu nas bases de dados BVS, SCIELO e nos periódicos da área de Educação Física: Pensar à Prática, Motrivivência, Licere e RBEFE. Foram incluídos artigos originais em português referentes às práticas corporais de aventura no âmbito da Educação Física Escolar na Educação Básica, em um recorte temporal dos últimos dez anos (2011 a 2021). Com base nos estudos, a aplicabilidade das práticas corporais de aventura no ambiente escolar é possível por meio de vídeos, fotos, e exploração do conteúdo teórico e prático, utilizando ambientes ao ar livre, aproximando assim, o aluno da realidade de cada modalidade. A falta de locais apropriados, materiais adequados e o conhecimento insuficiente dos profissionais foram pontos relevantes para que a introdução das práticas não ocorresse em algumas realidades escolares. Em síntese, como alternativa para reverter esta situação, é importante que o professor busque formas de adaptação para as atividades inseridas nas práticas corporais de aventura, a fim de que se adequem à realidade escolar, estimulando o despertar de novas sensações através de novas vivências aos estudantes.

Authors: Miller Robert W. , Marano Michael S.
Published: July 2022

URFOR/SIMULATION is a computerized urban forest management simulation/game designed to model a street tree population. The program utilizes actual street tree data and removes, prunes, plants, grows and kills street trees over time. The program user inputs management plans for planting, pruning and removal rates; and associated management costs. The simulation runs on an annual basis for the number of years specified by the user. Programs output describes the impact of management plans on the street tree population, calculates the value of the trees, and summarizes management costs. The simulation may be used as a game by the introduction of six random events; wind storm, ice storm, new disease, drought, budget increases, and budget cuts. The game user makes management decisions, runs the program on an annual basis, and alters management plans to compensate for random events.
Secret Communication using Multi-Image Steganography for Military Purposes

Published: July 2022

Information security plays an important role when considering data transmission. Transmission of sensitive data or communication through the internet turns out to be challenging due to security concerns. Generally, we use cryptography for information hiding and sending secret messages in the form of text. Nowadays, there are several techniques used for hiding information in any medium. One such technique is steganography. Building a secret communication system including Multi-image steganography will result in secure communication between the sender and the receiver without any interference from the hackers. Image steganography is the main aspect of information hiding where the ciphertext is embedded into an image called a cover image which is next to impossible for the intruders to see with their naked eyes. The hiding information can be any form of text, images, audio, and even videos inside a cover image. The conceptual definition of Multi-image Steganography is that the secret code is divided into multiple parts and is etched into multiple cover images. So we proposed two image steganography ideas to make it very challenging for the hackers to conceal the data. Thispaper proposes the Least significant bit(LSB) technique of Steganography and the Advanced Encryption Standard(AES) technique of Cryptography to build a safe and secure system. Here the sender and the receiver use the same key to encrypt and decrypt the data which is popularly termed a symmetric key.

Distribuição da renda no Brasil a partir das perspectivas de Celso Furtado e Fernando Henrique Cardoso
Authors: Machry Alexandre , Souza Diego de Vasconcelos , Lemos Bruno Vilas Boas
Published: July 2022

Este artigo busca revisitar as principais obras publicadas por Celso Furtado e Fernando Henrique Cardoso, fazendo uma análise comparativa entre as ideias dos dois autores em relação aos aspectos da distribuição de renda e suas perspectivas de desenvolvimento para a economia brasileira. Apesar dos autores não dedicarem seus estudos exclusivamente para a temática, a abrangência das suas interpretações nos fornece um entendimento profundo dos motivos das altas taxas de concentrações de renda brasileiras. Os dois intérpretes são convergentes ao entenderem o aspecto histórico da desigualdade, ligada ao modo em que se constitui a economia brasileira, voltada para a dinâmica internacional. Celso Furtado entende que a ampliação do mercado nacional, o dinamismo da economia capaz de promover o avanço técnico e o aumento da produtividade do trabalho são basilares para a busca da igualdade. Fernando Henrique Cardoso destaca o caráter político, de exploração de uma classe pela outra, e que só em uma democracia participativa poderia se construir uma sociedade mais justa.
Macroeconomic policies in response to COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil
Authors: Morceiro Paulo Cesar , Tessarin Milene Simone , Pereira Hugo Iasco
Published: July 2022

This article documents the macroeconomic policies adopted in Brazil to mitigate the contractionary effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on output and employment. We organize and discuss fiscal, credit and monetary measures adopted in the first year of the pandemic. Although there were no unified efforts of the Central Government to control the expansion of cases and deaths caused by COVID-19, Brazilian authorities have implemented a comprehensive temporary set of expansionist macroeconomic policies. We argue that the economic response was in the right direction but insufficient for economic recovery after the pandemic. In terms of policy implications, more cost-effective measures can subsidize policymakers in other developing economies in post-pandemic recovery.
Situational Leadership Style : A Qualitative Study
Authors: Alhadi Rus’an
Published: July 2022

This article aimed to describe Principal’s leadership and to describe about the leadership style. Because the leadership style of a principal can determine the success of all activities in the school including the learning process in the classroom. This leadership style would be reflected in how teachers carry out their basic duties as educators. With the qualitative method, the collective data used documentation and observation. The result showed Employee R1, leader S1. The leadership style in this scenario was top-down as R1 that associated with low skill as well as commitment. By directing and telling as clearly as possible what to do, leaders can control the outcome. Subordinates were also easier to complete the task. Employee R2, leader S2. Subordinates show a willingness to do tasks, but did not have enough skills. Thus, the leader was more in the role of supervisor or coach. Leaders can help subordinates gain experience and confidence. Employee R3, leader S3. In this scenario, subordinates already have skills and skills that were qualified but relatively low commitment. Therefore, the role of leaders was not to tell them what to do. Leaders were there to motivate and support to boost their confidence. Leaders also play a role in providing help and feedback on employee performance, but only when it's really needed. Employee S4, leader S4. Subordinates already have high skills supported with a high commitment to completing tasks. Therefore, the role of the leader was as a supervisor who monitors everything already goes according to plan.

¡Patria o gente...! Análisis de la campaña televisiva de ARENA y de la Coalición
Authors: Obach Xavier
Published: July 2022

Este artículo pretende ser un análisis técnico y de mensaje de la campaña electoral. Sin embargo, incluye una reflexión ética, indispensable para valorar algunas de las maniobras publicitarias utilizadas durante la campaña. El análisis arroja tres conclusiones básicas: (a) los anuncios de la izquierda ponían en evidencia diferencias internas serias, (b) los anuncios de ARENA estaban sólidamente conectados con los del gobierno, con los de empresas públicas y con una sorprendente lista de empresas privadas, y (c) ARENA pretende dar la imagen de un partido nacional, interclasista, institucional y con vocación de permanencia al estilo del Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) de México.

Managing tacit knowledge in a hi-tech learning organisation
Authors:   , O'Neill Shawn
Published: July 2022

Project managers are faced with the challenge of matching skills to a task rather than merely assigning people to a job. If these skills are not readily available, the project may not be able to be executed with the desired level of quality and timescales may not be met. Nowadays, organisations need to respond faster to market requirements than before due to increased competition and rapid advances in technology. Coupled to this is the trend for human resources to be more mobile, as lifelong commitment to an organisation becomes a thing of the past. These two trends present modern organisations with the requirement that their human resources require increasing levels of skills, yet they are faced with the risk that these skills may be lost due to their mobility. Organisations, therefore, need to understand what their core competencies are and ensure that these competencies are developed such that the organisation retains an adequate supply of core skills. The aim of the study is to identify the core competencies and associated skills within an organisation and devise a method whereby these competencies and skills can be measured and duplicated such that core knowledge is retained and developed within the organisation.

Consumer behaviour towards cause related marketing in the greater eThekweni region
Authors:   , Corbishley Karen Margaret
Published: July 2022

Cause related marketing (CRM) is becoming a popular marketing strategy used by brand managers, retailers and service companies. It can be described as a marketing strategy that links charities or ‘causes’ with the sales of a product, brand or service. The charity is mentioned in promotional campaigns and a certain percentage is donated to the cause in accordance with unit sales or turnover. A study was conducted in the eThekweni region of Kwazulu Natal, South Africa to gather information on this issue. The study was a quantitative survey and data was collected by means of an interview process. The overall objective of this study was to gain an understanding of consumer behaviour towards companies using CRM in the greater eThekweni region. This objective was made up of three sub-objectives. The first subobjective was to identify whether eThwekeni consumers would switch brands to a company involved with CRM, if price and quality were equal. This was followed by subobjective two, which was to establish whether particular socio-demographic characteristics of consumers would be related to their evaluation of a CRM offer. Finally, sub-objective three was to establish whether those same socio-demographic characteristics would be related to the selection of specific causes.
An evaluation of customer service quality at a selected resin company
Authors:   , Moodley Pragalathan
Published: July 2022

The conditions for doing business are changing rapidly. In the last decade, the resin market has witnessed a substantial growth and rapid changes globally as well as domestically. Customer satisfaction is a critical issue in the success of any business system, hence, one of the key challenges of this market is how to satisfy and retain their customers. This issue is strongly related to how service quality is managed and which holds a significant importance to customers’ satisfaction and their perceived performance of companies. In order for companies to survive and grow, they must find new ways of thinking, which has led to doing marketing researches, especially those related to customer satisfaction. In this study, the SERVQUAL model was employed to establish the customers’ perceptions versus their expectations of service quality at Cray Valley Resins. Both primary and secondary data were used to inform this particular research. The research was quantitative in nature and conducted in the form of a self-administered survey. The type of study used was the cross-sectional analytical survey method. The summary of the findings reveals that the dimensions with the highest expectation were tangibles followed by responsiveness. Coincidently these two dimensions also had the largest gap scores. The overall mean gap score (-0.326) is relatively small. Thus, it can be concluded that although the customers hold a good opinion of the quality of the services provided, expectations of the services were higher.
The effectiveness of the lean enterprise strategy in the electrical pre-payment manufacturing industry in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN)
Authors:   , Munn Wayne
Published: July 2022

Competition is increasing as trading borders continue to widen in this global marketplace. As a result, South African organisations need to improve their efficiencies. The primary objective of the study was to examine the effectiveness of the Lean Enterprise Strategy (LES) at improving business efficiency, in the electrical pre-payment industry in KZN. Several underlying objectives which support the primary objective were examined and realtionships established. Two forms of empirical studies, observation and questionaire based, were used. These studies provided substantive findings which were analysed and interpreted. A positive relationship between the LES and business efficiency were established and the various underlying objectives addressed. Communication was found to be inadequate and highlighted. It was also found that there is a substantial delay in return on investments; therefore, sustainability should be targeted and the LES should have a continual re-cycling mechanism, which allows it not only to be sustainable, but also renewable.
Firearms in South Africa
Authors:   , Pretorius Johan Andries Christoffel
Published: July 2022

The purpose of this research is to compare the firearm legislation between South Africa and selected countries and to determine if multiple firearm owners and firearm dealers are affected in terms of economics, and changes to their business environment by the new Firearms Act, 60 of 2000.The sub-objectives of this study are as follows: - To compare firearm regulations between countries that were affected by access to firearms and deaths as a result thereof; - To evaluate the economic effect of the legislation on a firearm dealer/dedicated hunter/dedicated sportsman/collector of firearms; - To evaluate the economic effect of the restrictions on the number of firearms an owner may legally possess; - To evaluate the economic impact of the cost involved for re-licensing a firearm; - To establish how the firearm business environment is affected according to the political, economic, social, technological and ecological influences on business strategies. The research does not include firearm owners with hand weapons or individuals with fewer than four firearms. It also excludes South African Police Service and South African Defence Force weapons, as these are not usually provided to the public. The aim of this research is to establish if there is an effect on the dealers and hunters in the firearm industry in South Africa with the advent of the Firearms Control Act 60 of 2000. The world trend changed firearm legislation world-wide and South Africa followed. In the following chapter the global and South African issue is discussed with some of the arguments on why the firearm legislation had to change.
Study on the Influence of Driver Anxiety on Driving Behavior During Car-Following
Authors: Liu Anlin , Ma Siyuan , Chen Zhihong , Zhang Kunmei , Yang Yiming , Guo Yongqing
Published: July 2022

Traffic includes people, cars and the environment, and people are subjective and changeable. When the driver’s psychology or behavior changes, the possibility of accident will increase. Emotion is a major factor affecting the psychological and physiological changes of drivers. Anxiety is generally considered to be one of the emotions that are easy to cause traffic accidents. For this, this paper collects and counts the driving data through the design of simulation driving experiment. At the same time, an emotion induced experiment was designed to simulate the changes of driving behavior caused by anxiety during car-following, and the process was recorded. The average analysis method is used to summarize and analyze the driving behavior under anxiety and calm mood in car-following driving, which also provides important theoretical support for the future research on traffic safety.
Clinical symptom and sign characteristics of patients with Conjunctivochalasis
Authors: Ilhamiyati Ilhamiyati , Wahyunisa Amira
Published: July 2022

Conjunctivochalasis (CCh) is a condition characterized by redundant, loose, and non- edematous conjunctival folds that often located in inferior bulbar conjunctiva. CCh often asymptomatic but also can cause many symptoms. The symptoms of CCh are often connected to delayed tear clearance or tear film instability. CCH is often overlooked in clinical practice; therefore, it is important to recognize this condition to differentiate it from chronic eye irritation and epiphora due to other causes. This research is to evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with Conjunctivochalasis (CCh). A total of 26 people with Conjunctivochalasis were enrolled in this retrospective investigation. The study included 52 eyes from 40 cases. Ages ranged from 46 to 77 years, with a mean age of 64 years. In this study, all CCh sites were found in the inferior conjunctiva and more in the temporal region (75%). The prevalence of CCh was mostly female (88.5%) and occurred in patients with an average age of 647 year. The most common complaints of CCh patients were eye pain (42%) and dryness (38%). Clinical examination results obtained bilateral CCh more than unilateral, which is 53.8%. Severity of first grade CCh was found in 50% of the sample eyes. Schirmer examination results of less than 5 mm and 5-10 mm obtained the same results of 35%. Fluorescein test results were found to be positive in 57.5% of eyes. While the most TBUT results were obtained in less than 5 seconds, which amounted to 67.5%.

Authors: Naomi Nita , Tedjosasongko Udijanto , Saskianti Tania , Estu Alit Rahma , Purnamasari Shinta
Published: July 2022

Introduction: Oral mucocele is a benign lesion affecting the minor salivary glands and ducts. There are two types of mucous cyst, extravasation cyst and retention cyst. Extravasation mucoceles are more commonly seen in children and adolescence, caused by local trauma to the duct, most likely occur on lower lip. Treatment options include surgical excision, laser therapy, cryosurgery, or electrocautery. This case report describes an oral mucocele on children diagnosed and treated successfully. Case Reports: An 11-years old girl with chief complaint of painless swelling on lower lip in the past 6 months prior and gradually got bigger. Based on the clinical features, history of lip and nail-biting, calculus present at upper and lower teeth, and histopathological lab results established the diagnosis of mucocele. Discussion: Mucocele is commonly seen in the area which minor salivary glands are found. Lip and nail-biting causing destruction of the excretory duct which causes mucus to escape into adjacent tissues, followed by formation of granuloma and a pseudo-capsule. The excision of the mucocele using electrocauter eliminates the tissue scarring, the wound is nearly painless and more precision application. Education and motivation are required to prevent the patient from continuing this habit. Conclusion: One of the typical salivary gland lesions in the oral cavity is mucocele. Use of electrocauter is known to be beneficial for wound healing. Improving the lip and nail-biting habit will also reduce the recurrence of mucoceles.
Changes in the annual sea ice freeze-thaw cycle in the Arctic Ocean from 2001 to 2018
Authors: Lin Long , Lei Ruibo , Hoppmann Mario , Perovich Donald K. , He Hailun
Published: July 2022

Abstract. The annual sea ice freeze-thaw cycle plays a crucial role in the Arctic atmosphere-ice-ocean system, regulating the seasonal energy balance of sea ice and the underlying surface ocean. Previous studies of the sea ice freeze-thaw cycle were often based on limited accessible in situ or easily available remotely sensed observations from surface. To better understand the responses of the sea ice to climate change and its coupling to the upper ocean, we combine measurements of the ice surface and bottom using multisource data to investigate the temporal and spatial variations in the freeze-thaw cycle of Arctic sea ice. Observations by 69 sea ice mass balance buoys (IMBs) collected from 2001 to 2018 revealed that the average ice basal melt onset in the Beaufort Gyre occurred on 23 May (±6 d), approximately 17 days earlier than the surface melt onset. And the average ice basal melt onset in the Central Arctic Ocean occurred on 17 June (±9 d), which was comparable with the surface melt onset. This inconsistency was mainly attributed to the difference in the seasonal variations of oceanic heat available to sea ice melt between the two regions. The overall average onset of basal ice growth of the pan Arctic Ocean occurred on 14 November, lagging approximately 3 months behind the surface freeze onset. This temporal delay was caused by a combination of the heat released from sea ice cooling, a heat flux from the ocean mixed layer and subsurface layer, as well as the thermal buffering of snow atop the ice. In the Beaufort Gyre region, both (Lagrangian) IMB observations (2001–2018) and (Eulerian) moored upward looking sonar (ULS) observations (2003–2018) revealed an earlier trend for basal melt onset, mainly linked to earlier warming of surface ocean. An earlier trend of basal ice growth was also identified from the IMB observations (multiyear ice), which we attributed to the overall reduction of ice thickness. In contrast, a delayed trend of basal ice growth was identified from the ULS observations, which was explained by the fact that the ice cover melted almost entirely by the end of summer in the recent years.
Timescales of outlet-glacier flow with negligible basal friction: Theory, observations and modeling
Authors: Feldmann Johannes , Levermann Anders
Published: July 2022

Abstract. The timescales of the flow and retreat of Greenland's and Antarctica's outlet glaciers and their potential instabilities are arguably the largest uncertainty in future sea-level projections. Here we derive a scaling relation that allows the comparison of the timescales of observed complex ice flow fields with geometric similarity. The scaling relation is derived under the assumption of fast, laterally confined, geometrically similar outlet-glacier flow over a slippery bed, i.e., with negligible basal friction. According to the relation, the time scaling of the outlet flow is determined by the product of the inverse of 1) the fourth power of the width-to-length ratio of its confinement, 2) the third power of the confinement depth and 3) the temperature-dependent ice softness. For the outflow at the grounding line of streams with negligible basal friction this means that the volume flux is proportional to the ice temperature and the bed depth, but goes with the fourth power of the gradient of the bed and with the fifth power of the width of the stream. We show that the theoretically derived scaling relation is supported by the observed velocity scaling of outlet glaciers across Greenland as well as by idealized numerical simulations of marine ice-sheet instabilities (MISIs) as found in Antarctica. Assuming a proportionality between the flow itself and its spatial derivative, we combine the scaling relation with a statistical analysis of the topography of 13 MISI-prone Antarctic outlets. Under these assumptions the timescales in response to a potential destabilization are fastest for Thwaites Glacier in West Antarctica and Mellor, Ninnis and Cook Glaciers in East Antarctica; between 16 and 67 times faster than for Pine Island Glacier. While the applicability of our results is limited by several strong assumptions, the utilization and potential further development of the presented scaling approach may help to constrain time-scale estimates of outlet glacier-flow, augmenting the commonly exploited and comparatively computationally expensive approach of numerical modeling.

Authors: Ejea Mendoza León Tomás , Martínez Romero Cinthya Osiris
Published: July 2022

Este artículo es parte de una investigación que busca dilucidar el papel que tiene la comunicación virtual, especialmente la que involucra a las redes sociales digitales, en la reproducción de diferentes tipos de violencia simbólica en el contexto de un mundo globalizado. En este caso, sostenemos que hay pautas visuales en la red social digital Instagram que reafirman los estereotipos y concepciones del cómo deben ser y cómo deben comportarse las mujeres, es decir, una forma de violencia simbólica. Argumentamos que, en las imágenes de los perfiles de las mujeres más seguidas en Instagram, es posible observar una dualidad entrelazada: la mujer como ser humano dedicado a lo doméstico y a lo familiar en el ámbito privado; y la mujer como objeto sexualizado en el ámbito público.
Heteronomía en arcadia , la clausura mimética a una reinvención utópica queer
Authors: Terrén Plaza Eduardo
Published: July 2022

Siguiendo el hábito queer de analizar el pasado en búsqueda de una mejor comprensión del presente, este artículo busca comprender la supremacía masculina en el pluriverso gay actual a través del análisis de discursos homosexuales viriles del pasado. Este artículo propone la noción de heteronomía para ofrecer una lente crítica a través de la cual examinar formas de socialidad homosexual que han reproducido y continúan reproduciendo diferentes formas de discursos de odio (misoginia, femmefobia, gordofobia etc.). El análisis se centra en la retórica masculinista, misógina y femmefóbica presente en Arcadie, la revista del Movimiento Homófilo francés, para extraer las consecuencias de este tipo de lenguaje en la defensa de la aceptación social de la homosexualidad en ambientes sociales hostiles. Para concluir, que pese a su carácter contradiscursivo, estas retóricas reproducen la exclusión y la marginalización de la matriz heterosexual dentro del pluriverso gay. El objetivo de esta investigación es probar la conexión entre los discursos de odio y la así llamada heteronomía en la reproducción social de los primeros dentro de la socialidad homosexual.
Engelbert Kaempfer (1651-1716) y sus observaciones sobre Japón: estudio sobre su impacto e influencia en España durante la Ilustración
Authors: Sanz Guillén Alejandro M.
Published: July 2022

A pesar de las medidas aislacionistas decretadas por el gobierno japonés durante las primeras décadas del siglo XVII, algunos trabajadores de la Compañía Neerlandesa de las Indias Orientales pudieron visitar el archipiélago durante el periodo Edo. Uno de los más célebres fue el médico alemán Engelbert Kaempfer, autor de The History of Japan, una de las más importantes descripciones europeas sobre Japón publicada durante la Edad Moderna. Esta obra tuvo un destacado peso entre los escritores del Viejo Continente, y fue un auténtico vademécum para cualquier interesado en el País del Sol Naciente. Asimismo, también supuso una referencia muy relevante para distintos autores de la Ilustración francesa, inglesa y alemana. A continuación, este trabajo se plantea analizar y estudiar la influencia que también pudieron haber tenido las descripciones del médico germano en nuestro país durante la Ilustración, una tarea que no ha sido afrontada hasta este momento.
El informe Future of Work 2035: For Everyone to Shine. Análisis jurídico de las propuestas japonesas sobre la implantación de los robots y de la IA en el mundo del trabajo y su posible adaptación al entorno europeo
Authors: Tirado Robles Carmen
Published: July 2022

En el contexto del centenario de la creación de la OIT, Japón celebró un diálogo nacional centrado en el futuro del trabajo que dio como resultado la publicación del informe Future of Work 2035: For Everyone to Shine en el que se expone la situación del mundo laboral en Japón en los últimos 20 años y se hacen previsiones sobre lo que sucederá en los próximos 20 años. Con ello, obtenemos un panorama de la sociedad japonesa en el que la implantación de los robots y la IA en el entorno laboral tiene un papel muy importante. Este trabajo analiza estas previsiones situándolas en el contexto de la iniciativa Sociedad 5.0 del Gobierno de Shinzo Abe para compararlas después con la situación en Europa. Partiendo de la base de que la sociedad japonesa es una sociedad robotizada con anterioridad y en mayor medida que las europeas, el objetivo de este trabajo es responder a la cuestión de si las propuestas japonesas difieren de las europeas y si pueden ser útiles y aplicables al entorno europeo.
Loriguillo-López, Antonio. Anime Complejo. La ambigüedad narrativa en la animación japonesa. Valencia: Aldea Global, Universitat de València, 2021, 190 pp. ISBN, 9788491349037
Authors: Santiago Iglesias José Andrés
Published: July 2022

La publicación de Antonio Loriguillo-López es la última y acertada inclusión en una lista, cada vez más extensa, de monografías académicas en lengua castellana, centradas en los Estudios de Anime (Anime Studies). Su aproximación escapa del que, durante años, ha sido el principal enfoque en muchas de las publicaciones, y en vez de centrar su análisis en un filme ‘de autor’ o en dinámicas de consumo, Loriguillo trata el anime como forma medial, y lo hace aproximándose a su narración compleja.
El futuro ya está aquí: Nuevas tendencias de la investigación en los Estudios Japoneses en España
Authors: Guarné Blai
Published: July 2022

La creación hace cinco años de la revista académica Mirai. Estudios Japoneses constituye una magnífica ocasión para reflexionar sobre la consolidación de los Estudios Japoneses en nuestro país durante este lapso temporal. Con este objetivo, el artículo realiza una panorámica de los grupos de investigación sobre Estudios Japoneses en el sistema universitario español, a modo de contextualización de los ensayos reunidos en el monográfico al que da paso. En estos ensayos, los autores revisan sus investigaciones doctorales realizadas durante los cinco años de vida editorial de Mirai, proporcionando un testimonio –necesariamente amplio pero no por ello menos significativo– de las tendencias investigadoras que se perfilan actualmente en el ámbito de los Estudios Japoneses en el contexto académico español.
Racismo reverso: a construção de uma narrativa de esquiva
Authors: Martins André Ricardo Nunes
Published: July 2022

Este artigo examina uma estratégia que caracteriza o discurso racista na esfera pública no Brasil. Acusação lançada por defensores do status quo ou por pessoas que criticam políticas de ação afirmativa voltadas para negros de que tais políticas são um tipo de racismo reverso é considerada à luz dos estudos sobre raça e racismo. Por meio da Análise de Discurso Crítica, investiga-se o racismo, formas de enfrentá-lo, a relação racismo e democracia, as implicações do combate ao racismo e a relação racismo e discurso. Nota-se como aspectos discursivos são usados distintamente para defender a própria perspectiva, seja racista ou antirracista.

Leitura e processo inferencial: um estudo com o gênero crônica no ensino médio
Authors: Fuza Ângela Francine , Gomes Adriana Fernanda Pilati
Published: July 2022

Este artigo buscou analisar como a habilidade de “inferir uma informação implícita em um texto” foi desenvolvida na leitura de crônicas com estudantes da 2.ª série do Ensino Médio. À luz das concepções interacionista de linguagem e leitura, desenvolveram-se atividade diagnóstica, oficinas de intervenção e avaliação final. Os resultados indicaram maior apropriação da habilidade pelos alunos que estabeleceram inferências textuais e extratextuais, a revelar que estão em processo de desenvolvimento para alcançar o horizonte máximo de compreensão. O estudo reforça a necessidade de trabalho contínuo com a habilidade, por se configurar como uma das mais complexas no processo de desenvolvimento leitor.

Pretendeu-se pesquisar de que forma se caracterizam essas repetições sonoras e quais seriam suas implicações na constituição do sujeito falante, tendo como alicerce teórico, contribuições de autores que serviram de base para o entrelaçamento entre estudos de aquisição de linguagem e o enfoque psicanalítico. A análise dessas repetições trouxe à tona a questão da marca.
