Water content of individual leaves or vegetation canopies is a significant variable in plant physiological processes. The water content of the vegetation leaves plays a very significant role. The ability of hyperspectral advanced technology to accurately evaluate leaf and canopy water content has improved large-scale measures. Due to the presence of water absorption band in near and SWIR wavelength range, electromagnetic spectrum will allow us to correctly measure the leaf water content. Three different parameters were used to describe the water status: Equivalent Water Thickness (EWT), Gravimetric Water Content (GWC), and Plant Water Concentration (PWC), with leaf multi angular reflectance spectrum, to find sensitive spectral indices, to correctly assess water content of leaves in a wide range of plant species. Using spectral indices derived from multi angular reflectance spectra, we looked into the possibility for predicting leaf water content of six species in the study area. To analyze the status of leaf water, three different forms of hyperspectral indices were evaluated, including the Simple Ratio (SR), Normalized ratio wavelength (ND) and Double Difference ratio (DDn). To look over the possibility of predicting the leaf water status of the species in the study field, we proposed four new indices. The results showed that EWT is comparatively more sensitive to trace leaf water status than GWC and PWC. The best-established EWT indices were (R905-R1795)/(R1905-R1935), R1350/R1390, (R840-R1565)/(R840+R1565) and (R925-R1625)/ (R925+R1625) and the performance of the proposed hyper-spectral indices surpassed the performance of other indices in this study. The mentioned indices were then further analyzed on LOPEX and ANGERS databases for validation of our suggested indices and we come up with better results. This study indicates that spectral indices can be used and could be more reliable to predict leaf water content, but future studies will need to include more plant species and field data. The newly developed indices can be used to estimate EWT using simple laboratory measurements, making them helpful for agricultural environmental sciences and ecology related studies.

This research examines the effect of COVID-19 isolation protocols on service provision to persons experiencing homelessness and concurrent disorders (PEHCD) in the province of British Columbia, Canada. Using mixed methods, 119 service providers completed a survey about experiences with COVID-19 isolation protocols. Of those, 25 participated in semi-structured interviews. In addition to documenting the challenges experienced by service providers, the results illustrate the creative and effective ways that service provision to PEHCD was maintained in the face of restrictions. This research builds on a pilot project conducted in Victoria, Canada in 2021, examining early impacts of COVID-19 isolation protocols on service delivery to PEHCD. This study extends the research to urban, rural, and remote communities across British Columbia.

Arylidene derivatives were synthesized from phenyl hydrazine and series of different aldehydes. Arylidene compounds are important classes of N-containing fused heterocycles widely used as key building blocks for pharmaceutical agents due to a wide range of biological activities that include anti-inflammatory and antitumor properties [1]. Arylidene derivatives were furnished by the fusion of benzene ring with different aldehydes via hydrazine moiety in the presence of glacial acetic acid. These derivatives were characterized by TLC, melting points, Infrared Red, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Mass Spectroscopy. Finally, these synthetized derivatives were tested for analgesic activity using hot plate test method, anti-inflammatory activity using rat paw oedema and ulcer index test.

Materials discovery for high-temperature, clean-energy applications using graph neural network models of vacancy defects and free-energy calculations

Published: January 2023

We present a graph neural network modeling approach that fully automates the prediction of the DFT-relaxed vacancy formation enthalpy of any crystallographic site from its DFT-relaxed host structure. Applicable to arbitrary structures with an accuracy limited principally by the amount/diversity of the data on which it is trained, this model accelerates the screening of vacancy defects by many orders of magnitude by replacing the DFT supercell relaxations required for each symmetrically unique crystal site. It can thus be used off-the-shelf to rapidly screen 10,000s of crystal structures (which can contain millions of unique defects) from existing databases of DFT-relaxed crystal structures. This modeling approach therefore provides a significant screening and discovery capability for a plethora of applications in which vacancy defects are the primary driver of a material's utility. For example, by high-throughput screening the Materials Project's metal oxides, we rapidly "re-discover" and identify new high potential candidate materials for hydrogen generation via solar thermochemical water splitting and energy storage, for CO2 conversion via reverse water gas shift chemical looping, and for cathodes in solid oxide fuel cells. Thermodynamic modeling on the basis of the high-throughput screening results allows us to connect the predicted defect energies to high temperature process conditions relevant to the different application areas, and we extract the reduction entropies as an additional selection criterion for high-performance materials. Further model development and accumulation of additional training data will only serve to expand the significant utility of this generalizable defect model to solving materials discovery problems in clean energy applications and beyond.

Published: January 2023

Gutmann-Beckett-type measurements with phosphine oxide probes can be used to estimate effective Lewis acidity with 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, but the influence of the molecular structure of a given probe on the quantification of Lewis acidity remains poorly documented in experimental work. Here, a quantitative comparison of triethyl (E), trioctyl (O), and triphenyl (P) phosphine oxides as molecular probes of Lewis acidity has been carried out via titration studies in MeCN with a test set of six mono- and di-valent metal triflate salts. In comparison to E, the bulkier O displays a similar range of chemical shift values and binding affinities for the various test metal ions. Spectral linewidths and speciation properties vary for individual cation-to-probe ratios, however, confirming probe-specific properties that can impact data quality. Importantly, P displays a consistently narrower dynamic range than both E and O, illustrating how electronic changes at phosphorus can influence NMR response. Comparative parametrizations of the effective Lewis acidities of a broader range of metal ions, including the trivalent rare earth ions Y3+, Lu3+, and Sc3+ as well as the uranyl ion (UO22+), can be understood in light of these results, informing on the fundamental chemical processes underlying the useful approach of single-point measurements for quantification of effective Lewis acidity. Together with a study of counter-anion effects reported here, these data clarify the diverse ensemble of factors that can influence the measurement of Lewis acid:base interactions.
Alkylation of amines with allylic alcohols and deep eutectic solvents as metal-free and green catalyst

Published: January 2023

A novel approach for the allylic alkylation of anilines, hydrazides and indole derivatives by the direct use of allylic alcohols is described under very mild conditions, such as room temperature and using sustainable deep eutectic solvents (DESs). The search of the optimum DES to be used in the reaction reveals that a simple mixture of choline chloride (ChCl) and lactic acid provides excellent results for a wide substrate scope and with high isolated yields. This methodology represents a great improvement compared to other procedures described in literature, for which high temperatures, stronger reaction conditions or metal catalysts are usually required. In some cases, this protocol affords to the first examples of trapping allylic carbocations with indole derivatives. All these features make this procedure an appealing and green alternative in comparison with other examples reported in literature on alkylation of amines by allylic alcohols. Preliminary mechanistic studies using unsymmetrically substituted alcohols support that the reaction should proceed by an SN1 pathway.Introduction.
Comparison of the Gaussian plume and puff atmospheric dispersion models on oil and gas facilities
Authors: Jia Meng , Daniels William , Hammerling Dorit
Published: January 2023

Characterizing methane emissions on oil and gas facilities often relies on a forward model to describe the atmospheric transport of methane. Here we compare two forward models: the Gaussian plume, a commonly used steady-state dispersion model, and the Gaussian puff, a time varying dispersion model that approximates a continuous release as a sum over many small "puffs". We compare model predictions to observations from a network of point-in-space continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS) collected during a series of controlled releases. Specifically, we use the Pearson correlation coefficient and mean absolute error (MAE) as metrics to assess the fit of the model predictions to the observed concentrations, with the former assessing the fit of pattern and the latter the fit of amplitude. The Gaussian puff outperforms the Gaussian plume using both metrics with average correlation coefficients of 0.38 and 0.31 and average MAEs of 0.70 and 0.74, respectively. We also investigate how the frequency at which puffs are generated affects the accuracy and computational cost of the Gaussian puff and propose guidelines for choosing an appropriate value. Finally, we provide open-source implementations of the Gaussian puff model in Python and R that are tailored for use on oil and gas facilities.

Nonconjugated clusteroluminogens (CLgens) become increasingly important in photophysics and advanced bioelectronic applications. Most CLgens show ultraviolet emission, and it remains an enormous challenge to change the electronic structures of CLgens to improve their photophysical properties by precisely regulating the intramolecular through-space interactions (TSI). Herein we propose a general strategy to construct a higher-level intramolecular TSI in multiaryl-substituted alkanes, namely the secondary through-space interaction (2nd TSI), which is constructed by the primary through-space interaction (1st TSI) and TSI linker. By introducing methyl and phenyl into 1,1,3,3-tetraphenylpropane (TPP) respectively, butane-1,1,3,3-tetrayltetrabenzene (Me-TPP) and propane-1,1,1,3,3-pentaylpentabenzene (Ph-TPP) both show bright visible clusteroluminescence (CL), whose fluorescence quantum yield is up to ~40% and the emission wavelength extends to 530 nm. Advanced theoretical studies relating to their emission mechanism are quantitatively performed to analyze the photophysical properties of these CLgens in different states. It is found that molecular rigidity and proper conformation both play pivotal roles in improving the 1st TSI, enhancing the TSI linker and constructing 2nd TSI. Experimental and calculation results prove that the hierarchical TSIs and CL have been successfully regulated in these multiaryl-substituted alkanes (MAAs). This work not only provides a feasible strategy to achieve controllable manipulation of TSI and CL but also paves the way to the in-depth mechanistic understanding of CL.
Dock-able linear and homodetic di, tri, tetra and pentapeptide library from canonical amino acids: SARS-CoV-2 Mpro as a case study

Published: January 2023

Peptide-based therapeutics are increasingly coming to the forefront of biomedicine with their promise of high specificity and low toxicity. Although noncanonical residues can always be used, employing only the natural 20 residues restricts the chemical space to a finite dimension allowing for comprehensive in silico screening. Towards this goal, the dataset comprising all possible di, tri, and tetrapeptide combinations of the canonical residues has been previously reported. However, with increasing computational power, the comprehensive set of pentapeptides are now also feasible for screening as are the comprehensive set of cyclic peptides comprising four or five residues. Here, we provide both the complete and prefiltered libraries of all di, tri, tetra, and pentapeptide sequences from 20 canonical amino acids and their homodetic (N-to-C-terminal) cyclic homologues. The libraries in the FASTA, SMILES, and SDF-3D formats can be readily used for screening against protein targets. Access to this dataset will accelerate small peptide screening workflows and encourage their use in drug discovery campaigns. As a case study, the developed library was screened against SARS-CoV-2 Mpro to identify potential small peptide inhibitors.

Construction sites are often blamed for dengue outbreaks in surrounding localities. The environment is suitable for immature mosquitoes to develop without predators and the convenience of female mosquitoes to feed on the exposed construction workers. The purposes of this study were to identify the species of mosquitoes present at construction sites and the types of their preferred breeding habitats, and also to determine the vertical distribution of the mosquitoes. Nineteen construction sites in the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur were cross-sectionally surveyed for the presence of immature mosquitoes in 2018. All water-holding containers were inspected for the presence of immature mosquitoes. Types of water-holding containers were recorded and counted. The number of immature mosquitoes was counted from each positive container and then transferred to the laboratory for species identification. A total of 1,643 immature mosquitoes were collected, comprising 1,287 larvae and 356 pupae. Aedes aegypti immature was the most abundant mosquito species (76%), followed by Culex quinquefasciatus (19%), and the Aedes albopictus (5%). The most productive breeding sites were flooded floors, drains, plastic containers, elevator shafts, water drums, and pails. We discovered that the immature mosquitoes were most abundant from the ground floor to the second floor, with Ae. aegypti immature could disperse up to the thirteenth floor. This study has provided useful information to the health department regarding the preferred breeding habitats of vector mosquitoes at construction sites. Consequently, it contributes to effective and efficient vector prevention and control measures, thus saving time and manpower.

The main objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between the relevance of computerized accounting information and the effectiveness of external auditing in Yemen commercial banks. To achieve this goal, the study used a quantitative research approach, and 350 questionnaires were distributed to workers at the administrative levels in Yemen commercial banks and external auditing offices that audit banks. The number of rounded questionnaires valid for statistical analysis reached 300, i.e., 86% of the distributed questionnaires. The findings of the regression model show that the unstandardized coefficient B for the relevance of CAIS is 0.724, which is significant as the p-value is less than 0.05.and this signifies that one-unit variation (increase) in the relevance of CAIS leads to a variation of 0.724 units of variation (raise) in the effectiveness of external audits in commercial banks in the Republic of Yemen. It was concluded that the computerized accounting systems were designed with relevancy in mind, which reflected favorably on the effectiveness of the external audit. This indicates that the results produced by computerized accounting information systems are effectively relevant to the results produced by an external audit. Overall, the study suggests that in order to improve the effectiveness of external auditing in Yemen commercial banks, it is important to ensure that the computerized accounting information being used is relevant and accurate. Therefore, it is safe to say that there is a positive connection between the relevance of computerized accounting information and the external audit's effectiveness.

Sağlık binaları, halkın sağlığına hizmet vermek için tasarlanan ve bu doğrultuda gereken teşhis ve tedavi süreçlerinin yürütüldüğü yapılardır. Bulundukları bölgede yaşayan kişilere temel; koruyucu, tedavi edici ve rehabilite edici hizmetler sunarlar, büyük ölçekli ve kompleks binalar değillerdir. Ancak bu binaların birtakım ergonomik koşulları, belli ölçülerde işitsel, görsel, mekânsal ve termal konfor koşullarını sağlaması gerekmektedir. Sağlık sorunları yaşayan bireyler tarafından yoğun olarak ziyaret edildikleri için, bu kullanıcılara yönelik, ergonomik kalite standartlarını karşılaması beklenmektedir.
Bu çalışmada yapılan literatür araştırması ile ortaya konan birtakım ölçütler, 1.basamak sağlık binalarında ergonomik kalitenin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla derlenmiştir. Bina değerlendirmesi için kullanım sonrası değerlendirme (KSD) yöntemi seçilmiştir. Bütüncül bir yaklaşımla birden fazla değerlendirme ölçütünün sistematik analizi için bir yaklaşım geliştirilmiştir. Bu yaklaşım seçilen bir aile sağlığı merkezi binasında test edilerek denenmiştir. Binada gözlem, ölçüm, görüşme tekniklerden faydalanılarak veri toplanmıştır. Toplanılan veriler 3’lü likert formülüne göre analiz edilerek değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonunda örnek binanın işitsel ve termal konfor düzeyinin iyi (2,60 ≤ x ≤ 3,00), mekânsal ve görsel konfor düzeyinin ise orta (2,14 ≤ x ≤ 2,20) seviyede olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Binanın ergonomik kalitesi genel olarak iyi seviyede (x=2,49) değerlendirilirken, mekânsal ve görsel konfor şartlarının iyileştirilmesi için önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

Türkiye’de iş sağlığı ve güvenliği (İSG) ile ilgili mevcut mevzuatımıza, gerçekleştirilen çalışmalara ve alınan tedbirlere rağmen iş kazaları ve meslek hastalıkları hâlâ istenen düzeyde önlenememiştir. Bu durum, çalışma alanlarının sağlık ve güvenlik açısından risk seviyesinin, diğer bir ifadeyle İSG performansının bir göstergesi olma niteliğindedir. Her sektör için risk seviyesi farklılık gösterdiğinden sektör bazında iş kazaları ve meslek hastalıklarının yıllık seyrini belirlemek ve İSG uygulamalarına yönelik risk seviyelerini ortaya çıkarmak, İSG’ye dair hedeflerin ve bu hedeflerle ilişkili stratejilerin doğru tanımlanmasına yardım olacaktır. Bu çalışmada, Avrupa Topluluğu Ekonomik Faaliyetler İstatistik Sınıflaması’na göre ülkemizde faaliyet gösteren tüm sektörlerin iş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönünden risk seviyelerinin karşılaştırılması amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışmada, Sosyal Güvenlik Kurumu’nun 2013-2020 yıllarında iş kazaları ve meslek hastalıkları ile ilgili yayımladığı istatistikler baz alınmıştır. Sektörlerin risk seviyelerinin belirlenmesinde iş kazası sayısı, ölümlü iş kazası sayısı, meslek hastalığı vaka sayısı, toplam geçici iş göremezlik süresi ve toplam sürekli iş göremezlik geliri bağlanan sigortalı sayısı olmak üzere beş adet kriter dikkate alınmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, çalışma kapsamında Çok Kriterli Karar Verme (ÇKKV) yöntemlerinden TOPSIS (İdeal Çözüme Benzerlik Bakımından Sıralama Tercihi Yöntemi) kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, İSG yönünden daha etkin stratejik planların oluşturulmasına ve uygulanmasına gereksinim duyulan sektörleri ortaya çıkarmıştır.
