Authors: Costa Isabella Ribeiro , Disconzi Veronica Silva do Prado
Published: September 2024

O artigo analisa o crime de abandono de animais, destacando as motivações para esse comportamento e suas consequências negativas para os animais afetados. Primeiramente, investigam-se as razões por trás do abandono e os impactos desse ato na vida dos animais, evidenciando que eles sofrem experiências dolorosas e adversas. Em seguida, discute-se a senciência dos animais, comprovando que eles conseguem sentir dor e sofrimento. A ausência de posse responsável, frequentemente resultante da ignorância humana, contribui para a frequência do abandono, destacando a necessidade de maior conscientização sobre o bem-estar animal. O estudo também revisita o histórico das políticas públicas, que tradicionalmente focam no bem-estar humano e frequentemente negligenciam as necessidades dos animais em situação de rua. Além disso, a domesticação dos animais, originalmente selvagens, traz desafios, como abusos e maus-tratos. As ONGs desempenham um papel crucial na proteção dos animais, mas é necessário que o Estado reavalie e melhore suas políticas públicas para garantir a eficácia no tratamento de animais abandonados. O artigo conclui que é essencial o desenvolvimento de políticas e ações mais efetivas, com o envolvimento de todos os setores da sociedade, para proteger e melhorar a qualidade de vida dos animais abandonados, reconhecendo sua senciência e garantindo seu bem-estar.

Authors: Santos Mayara Santana dos , Lopes Júnior Hélio Marco Pereira , Silva Luana Guimarães da
Published: September 2024

Introdução: Aponta-se que o exame Citopatológico é um teste realizado para detectar alterações nas células do colo do útero, é a principal estratégia para detectar lesões precocemente. O câncer do colo do útero, ou câncer cervical, é um dos tumores que mais acomete a população feminina. A estimativa é de uma incidência de mais de 16,5 mil casos para o ano de 2022. A infecção se dá por meio do contato com pele e mucosas infectadas sendo transmitida, na maioria das vezes, através da relação sexual desprotegida. Dados do Instituto Nacional de Câncer (INCA) indicam que esta é a quarta causa de morte por câncer entre as mulheres no Brasil. O exame é indicado para a população alvo de 25 a 64 anos e para mulheres que iniciou a vida sexual, a cada três anos, após dois exames anuais consecutivos normais (INCA, 2016; 2021). Essas recomendações visam garantir o balanço favorável entre riscos e benefícios do rastreamento. Objetivo: Conscientizar as mulheres sobre a importância de realizar o exame Citopatológico corretamente. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura fundamentada em pesquisa bibliográfica com classificação de natureza básica em forma de abordagem qualitativa, visando observar a importância do exame Citopatológico na saúde da mulher, realizado a partir da seleção de artigos científicos e pesquisas com abordagem de produção nacional buscando conhecer a importância do exame preventivo. Após a definição do tema, foi realizada uma busca em ambientes virtuais em saúde: Ministério da Saúde (OMS), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO) e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS).  Foram utilizados os seguintes descritores controlados: Enfermagem, Papanicolau e Prevenção. O passo seguinte foi uma leitura exploratória das publicações, caracterizando assim o estudo de revisão de literatura. Foram adotados como critérios de inclusão a utilização de publicações entre 2019 e 2024, no idioma português e a disponibilidade na íntegra do artigo nas bases de dados pesquisadas. Resultados: Aponta-se que muitas mulheres desconhecem a importância do exame Citopatológico e deixa de fazer corretamente por conta desse fator, ou até mesmo por medo e vergonha, isso pode levar a diagnósticos tardios e complicações desnecessárias. Conclusão: Compreende-se que o câncer de colo de útero é uma doença que pode ser prevenida com a realização do exame de prevenção ou ter um diagnóstico precoce. Além disso, quando diagnosticado precocemente, o câncer de colo de útero tem maiores chances de ser tratado com sucesso. Ao realizar o exame Citopatológico regularmente, é possível identificar alterações nas células do colo do útero antes mesmo de se tornarem câncer. Isso permite que intervenções sejam feitas precocemente, como tratamento de lesões pré-cancerosas, reduzindo assim o risco de desenvolvimento do câncer cervical. Portanto, a conscientização sobre a importância da prevenção e do diagnóstico precoce do câncer de colo de útero é fundamental para reduzir sua incidência e mortalidade.

Distinct seasonal changes and precession forcing of surface and subsurface temperatures in the mid-latitudinal North Atlantic during the onset of the Late Pliocene
Authors: Pang Xiaolei , Voelker Antje H. L. , Lu Sihua , Ding Xuan
Published: September 2024

Abstract. The Late Pliocene marks the intensification of Northern Hemisphere glaciation (iNHG), offering a unique opportunity to study climate evolution and ice-sheet-related feedback mechanisms. In this study, we present high-resolution Mg / Ca-based sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and subsurface temperatures (SubTs) derived from the foraminiferal species Globigerinoides ruber and Globorotalia hirsuta, respectively, at the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 306 Site U1313 in the mid-latitudinal North Atlantic during the early Late Pliocene, 3.65–3.37 million years ago (Ma). We find distinct differences between our new G. ruber Mg / Ca-based SST record and previously published alkenone-based SST records from the same location. These discrepancies in both absolute values and variations highlight distinctly different seasonal influences on the proxies. The G. ruber Mg / Ca-based SST data were primarily influenced by local summer insolation, showing a dominant precession cycle. Conversely, the variations in alkenone-based SST, dominated by the obliquity and lacking the precession cycle, are found to be more indicative of cold-season changes, despite previous interpretations of these records as reflecting annual mean temperatures. A simultaneous decline in Mg / Ca-based SST and SubT records from 3.65 to 3.5 Ma suggests a diminished poleward oceanic heat transport, implying a weakening of the North Atlantic Current (NAC). A comparison with Early Pleistocene G. ruber Mg / Ca-based SST records shows a shift in the dominant climatic cycle from precession to obliquity, alongside a marked increase in amplitude, indicating an enhanced influence of obliquity cycles correlated with the expansion of Northern Hemisphere ice sheets.
A gradient-boosted tree framework to model the ice thickness of the World's glaciers (IceBoost v1)
Authors: Maffezzoli Niccolò , Rignot Eric , Barbante Carlo , Petersen Troels , Vascon Sebastiano
Published: September 2024

Abstract. Knowledge of glacier ice volumes is crucial for constraining future sea level potential, evaluating freshwater resources, and assessing impacts on societies, from regional to global. Motivated by the disparity in existing ice volume estimates, we present IceBoost, a global Machine Learning framework to model individual glacier ice thickness distributions. IceBoost is an ensemble of two gradient-boosted trees trained with 3.7 million globally-available ice thickness measurements and an array of 34 numerical features. The model error is similar to existing models outside polar regions and up to 30–40 % lower at high latitudes. Providing supervision by exposing the model to available glacier thickness measurements reduces the error by up to a factor 2 to 3. A feature ranking analysis reveals that geodetic information are the most informative variables, while ice velocity can improve the model performance by 6 % at high latitudes. A major feature of IceBoost is a capability to generalize outside the training domain, i.e. producing meaningful ice thickness distributions in all regions of the World, including in the ice sheet peripheries.

Published: September 2024

The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment Follow-On (GRACE-FO), launched in May 2018, provides invaluable information about mass change in the Earth system, continuing the legacy of GRACE. Fundamental requirements for successful mass change recovery are precise orbit determination and inter-satellite ranging, determination of the relative clock alignment of the ultra-stable oscillators (USOs), precise attitude determination, and accelerometry. NASA/Caltech Jet Propulsion Laboratory is the official Level-1 data processing and analysis center and provides weekly Level-1A/B data updates. Here we present analysis of the aforementioned GRACE-FO sensor data, updates to the accelerometer transplant calibrations, as the basis for Level-2 release RL06.3, and a discussion of the overall GRACE-FO measurement system performance in light of an increasing Solar cycle 25. We also provide an update on current GRACE/GRACE-FO reprocessing efforts toward a future unified Release-07 data record. The research presented in this abstract has been carried out at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, under a contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. ©2024 California Institute of Technology.

Published: September 2024

Abstract. Changes to soil hydraulic properties that reduce infiltration capacity following fire can increase flash flood risks. These risks are exacerbated by rainfall intensification associated with a warming climate. However, the potential effects of climate-change-driven rainfall intensification on postfire floods remain largely unexplored. Using rainfall and runoff observations from a 49.4 km2 watershed in southern Arizona, USA, and a hydrological model (KINEROS2), we examined the temporal evolution following a historic fire of three crucial hydrologic parameters: soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksp), net capillary drive (Gp), and hydraulic roughness (nc). We explored how the effect of fire on these parameters may influence peak flow under future climate scenarios derived from CMIP6, specifically the medium emissions scenario (SSP245) and high emissions scenario (SSP585). Results demonstrate an increase in Ksp from 11 mm/hr in the first postfire year to 60 mm/hr in postfire year three. Gp similarly increased from 19 mm in the first postfire year to 30 mm in the third, while nc was relatively constant. The highest simulated Qp occurred in the first postfire year. Under the SSP245 scenario, the likelihood of a 100-yr flood is projected to be twice as large by the middle century relative to its historical magnitude. Simulations further indicate that the maximum expected discharge associated with a postfire flood, as derived from historical data, could be triggered by a 10-yr rainstorm under the SSP585 scenario by the late century. Simulations also demonstrate that rainfall intensification will lead to greater persistence of elevated flood hazards following fire by late century under both the SSP245 and SSP585 scenarios.
Spatio-Temporal Graph Neural Networks for Power Prediction in Offshore Wind Farms Using SCADA Data
Authors: Daenens Simon , Verstraeten Timothy , Daems Pieter-Jan , Nowé Ann , Helsen Jan
Published: September 2024

Abstract. This paper introduces a novel model for predicting wind turbine power output within a wind farm at a high temporal resolution of 30 seconds. The wind farm is represented as a graph, with Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) used to aggregate selected input features from neighboring turbines. A temporal component is added by feeding a timeseries of input features into the graph and utilizing a hybrid GNN-LSTM model architecture. This approach sequentially extracts temporal features with the LSTM component and spatial features with the GNN component. Our model is integrated into a Normal Behavior Model (NBM) framework for analyzing power loss events in wind farms. The results show that both the Spatial and Spatio-Temporal GNN models outperform traditional data-driven power curve methods, with the Spatio-Temporal GNN demonstrating superior performance due to its ability to capture both spatial and temporal dynamics. Additionally, we illustrate the model’s effectiveness in detecting and analyzing instances of reduced performance and its ability to identify various types of abnormal events beyond what is recorded in standard status logs.

Published: September 2024

In grape production, in order to maintain the competitive power in the domestic and foreign markets and to meet the market needs, it is necessary to have the product in a wide period of time. Especially late and high quality table grape varieties that are suitable for cold storage are needed. In the study, the suitability of Güz gülü grape variety for cold storage was investigated. The study was carried out during the harvest period of 2018 and 2019. The clusters were placed in bags weighing 5 kg and dual releasing SO2 pads with a dose of 0.9 g kg-1 of sulphur dioxide were placed in the bag. Müşküle variety was used as a control. After the applications, the grapes were stored for 90 days at 0-1 °C and 90±5% relative humidity. In order to determine the fruit quality characteristics of the samples at 15-day intervals throughout the storage period; weight loss, total soluble solids, titration acidity, maturity index, berry firmness, the removal force of the berries, cluster rachis color, decay rate, berry cracking rate and sensory analysis values were determined. It has been determined that Güz Gülü grape variety is not suitable for cold storage in Tekirdağ location due to the cracking of the skin. It was determined that the experiment should be done in locations with higher day and night temperature difference, better sun exposure and continental climate. In addition, it is recommended to apply calcium or other support components to increase the resistance of berry skin against cracking.
Current Approaches in Viticulture Mechanization
Authors: YAZAR COŞKUN Elif
Published: September 2024

Viticulture, known as grape cultivation, has a rich history spanning thousands of years. Grapevine is one of the oldest fruit species cultivated in the world and is still one of the most basic agricultural activities today. Throughout the centuries, techniques in vineyard management have evolved following advances in technology and machinery. In recent years, especially the wine industry has been experiencing a significant transition to viticulture mechanization due to increasing productivity, cost reduction and the gradual decrease of skilled labour force. This transition allows cultural processes in vineyard cultivation to be carried out more effectively both in a timely manner and in accordance with its purpose. In addition, with the introduction of technology, this mode of production becomes more attractive for the young population, which tends to move away from agricultural activities. In this article, prominent mechanization applications in grape cultivation and current approaches on a global scale are examined.
The Role of Environmental Factors and Plant Growth Regulators on Grapes Coloration
Authors: Shehata Raed
Published: September 2024

Grapevine is the world's commercial horticulture crop. Poor coloration of grapes is one of the problems in grape production. Climate changes could negatively affect grape quality by reducing color formation. The effect of high temperatures on anthocyanin content and composition in the main red-producing grapes would help estimate their phenotypic change and perhaps predict whether they will be able to sustain the attributes of high-quality grapes in the context of climate change. Climate changes played an important role in lack sufficient berry color especially high temperature inhibited L-phenylalanineammonialyase (PAL). L-phenylalanineammonialyase improved accumulation of anthocyanin in the skin of grape berries. Environmental factors like light, temperature and irrigation are effective in either grapes coloration or discoloration. Plant growth regulators like Brassinosteroids (BRs), Jasmonic acid (JA), Salicylic acid (SA) and Abscisic acid (ABA) are accelerating the accumulation of anthocyanin in grapes berry skin. So it is very important to know how grapes coloration, the effect of plant growth regulators and environmental factors on grapes coloration.

It is known that the bacteria of the genus Staphylococcus are among the most common bacterial pathogens in the pathogenesis of mastitis. Detailed and comprehensive knowledge of the metabolism of Staphylococcus is necessary to understand its pathogenesis. The aim of the study was to identify the metabolic pathways of S. aureus bacteria isolated from the milk of the cows with mastitis. A total of 88 metabolic pathways were identified for the studied S. aureus. Biosynthesis pathways were strongly dominated in bacteria, the most common of which were biosynthesis of 5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotides, biosynthesis of L-lysine, L-threonine and L-methionine II, biosynthesis of coenzyme A, biosynthesis of L-isoleucine and biosynthesis of uridine monophosphate. A pathway for the synthesis of Nacetylglucosamine has been found in S. aureus bacteria. This pathway may be important for bacterial virulence. The pathway of peptidoglycan III biosynthesis has been discovered. This pathway was previously described for Mycobacteriaceae. In addition, in the cells of S. aureus there have discovered mixed acid fermentation genes, which are more typical for representatives of Enterobacteriaceae. According to the sequencing results, it has been revealed that various folate metabolism pathways are widely represented in S. aureus cells, emphasizing its obvious great importance for this type of bacteria.

Sampai dengan akhir tahun 2023, target bauran energi primer energi baru terbarukan (EBT) baru mencapai 15,7%, masih memerlukan upaya yang konkrit dan terencana untuk mencapai target Bauran 23% di tahun 2025 dan 34% di tahun 2030.  Sebagai salah satu usaha ikut berkontribusi dalam pengembangan energi air maka penulis dan tim mengadakan kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat dengan tujuan memanfaatkan potensi energi listrik dari energi potensial air sepanjang aliran sungai dalam kapasitas relatif kecil yaitu 1.000 watt, disebut pikohidro, untuk penerangan jalan di grumbul Plawetan, kecamatan Tambak, Jawa Tengah. Kegiatan tersebut merupakan tahapan kedua karena pada tahun sebelumnya telah dibangun rumah pembangkit berisi turbin-generator yang ditentukan berdasar hasil pengukuran dan perhitungan kapasitas daya pada sungai yang mengaliran di daerah tersebut. Kegiatan ini dilakukan dengan tahapan: (1) membangun bendung pada aliran sungai. (2) membuat saluran air dari bendung ke rumah pembangkit, tepatnya agar energi potensial air dapat memutar turbin-generator, (3) distribusi daya listrik dari generator ke penerangan jalan umum (PJU), dan (4) pengujian nyala PJU.  Hasilnya PJU sebanyak 15 lampu LED masing-masing berkapasitas daya 15 watt dan  dummy load berupa lampu 2x200 watt dan 2x75 watt dapat menyala dengan tegangan 205 volt pada sisi beban lampu yang sesuai dengan standar PLN, yaitu SPLN 1: 1995, yakni tegangan diperbolehkan maksimum 5% dan maksimum 10% terhadap tegangan normal.  Pada tegangan nominal 220 volt maka rentang tegangan yang sesuai adalah 198 s.d. 232 volt.  Mengingat di daerah perbukitan dan distribusi sepanjang sekitar 700 meter maka digunakan kabel SR 2x10 mm2 yang menggunakan isolator XPLE dan resistansi 1,83 ohm/km panjang, sehingga dari perhitungan drop voltage yang terjadi sekitar 9,5 volt.  Dengan tercapainya tujuan kegiatan maka keamanan dan kenyamanan aktivitas warga terutama pada malam hari dapat meningkat.

Published: September 2024

The study was conducted to ascertain the effect of four different land covers (cassava cultivated field (CCF), oil palm plantation (OPP), plantain plantation (PP) and forest land (FL)) on the fertility status of soils of Umuhu in Ngor-Okpala area of Imo State, Nigeria. Random sampling technique was used in the collection of soil samples from the four different land covers. The sampling was done at the beginning, middle and end of each land cover. Twelve (12) composite samples were collected from all the land cover types with 3 per land cover. The composite samples were prepared for routine laboratory analyses. Data generated were analyzed statistically using analysis of variance. The textural classes of all the sampled soils were of loamy sand. The soil which had plantain plantation as its cover had the highest pH (6.4), Total N (0.229 %), Soil organic matter 4.70%, Available P (27.05 mg kg-1), Exch. Ca (6.492 cmolc kg-1), Exch. Mg (3.942 cmolc kg-1), Exch. K (0.953 cmolc kg-1), Exch. Na (0.06 cmolc kg-1), Exch. H (1.2 cmolc kg-1) and CEC (28.4 cmolc kg-1) with its Exch. Al in trace amount (<0.001 cmolc kg-1). The soil under CCF, despite being under low cover, did not show much degeneration due to the shifting cultivation being practiced in the study location. However, the result obtained from the study indicated that the different land covers especially that under plantain plantation (PP) have affected the soils fertility at different rates. This observed factor is strongly controlled by high content of organic materials, a dense vegetative cover which mitigates erosion effects and the addition of ash as a means of fertilizing the soils under plantain plantation being practiced in the study area.

Febrile convulsion or seizure is a common emergency in pediatrics which triggers anxiety in parents due to associated morbidities and mortality. This study assessed the home management of childhood febrile convulsion in Obiagu, Enugu North Local Government Area of Enugu State. A cross-sectional descriptive survey was conducted among women of child-bearing age in Obiagu, Enugu North Local Government Area of Enugu State, Nigeria. The population of this study consisted of 1,850 women but 328 is a convenient sample employed in the study. A structured questionnaire with reliability coefficient of 0.83 was used in gathering the necessary data for the study which were analyzed with SPSS version 17.0. It was discovered that all the respondents (320) were aware of febrile convulsion. Two hundred and sixty-five (265) (82.81%) of the women understood febrile convulsion to be high temperature associated with jerking of the child. Also, high temperature was perceived by 269 (84.06%) of the women to be the cause while 140 (43.75%) believe that it was caused by evil forces or demonic. Two hundred and twenty-six (226) (70.63%) of the women applied palm kernel oil on their children’s body during convulsion, 124 (38.7%) used herbal concoctions and 105 (32.81%) put substances like palm oil or kerosene in the eyes of their convulsing children. The reason for these actions is mainly because they did not want their children to die. Others include not being aware of better methods and that the materials used were readily available. The women in Obiagu were aware of febrile convulsion and their perception of its cause was fair but they lacked knowledge of appropriate actions to take during febrile convulsion.

Objective: To investigate the role of maternal height and body mass index in the prediction of preterm birth
Material and Method: Patients who had either cesarean section and/or normal delivery in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in the last 5 years were included in the study. Demographic data, weeks of gestation at the time of delivery, maternal height and body mass index of the patients with preterm delivery were recorded retrospectively for the study group. The control group consisted of retrospectively selected patients who had given birth after the expected date of delivery using the Naegele method.
Results: In the study, 295 of 541 pregnant women had a preterm birth (study group), while 246 women had given birth after the expected date of delivery (control group). Maternal height and body mass index had an influence on preterm birth. The sensitivity and specificity values for a height of 152.5 cm and a body mass index of 21.3 kg/m2 were (1.0 and 0.13) and (1.0 and 0.06), respectively. In the receiver characteristics analysis of these variables affecting preterm birth, the area under the curve for body mass index and maternal height were 0.763 and 0.708, respectively.
Conclusion: We conclude that height and body mass index were found to be good discriminators for the prediction of preterm birth.
A differentiable programming framework for spin models
Authors: Farias Tiago de Souza
Published: September 2024

We introduce a novel framework for simulating spin models using differentiable programming, an approach that leverages the advancements in machine learning and computational efficiency. We focus on three distinct spin systems: the Ising model, the Potts model, and the Cellular Potts model, demonstrating the practicality and scalability of our framework in modeling these complex systems. Additionally, this framework allows for the optimization of spin models, which can adjust the parameters of a system by a defined objective function. In order to simulate these models, we adapt the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm to a differentiable programming paradigm, employing batched tensors for simulating spin lattices. This adaptation not only facilitates the integration with existing deep learning tools but also significantly enhances computational speed through parallel processing capabilities, as it can be implemented on different hardware architectures, including GPUs and TPUs.
