A presença ou ausência desses campos ocorre em diferentes respostas. Conclui-se que existem limitações ao uso do ChatGPT para o preenchimento de protocolos de pesquisa, entretanto, essas limitações podem ser minimizadas com a apresentação de um modelo de protocolo predefinido. Conclusão: Conclui-se ainda que a familiaridade do pesquisador tanto com o preenchimento de protocolos de pesquisa como com a temática que circunda a RSL também pode contribuir para minimizar essas limitações.
Comprehensive analysis of non-fungible tokens valuation and accounting under IFRS: Challenges and artificial intelligence implications
Authors: Akpan Mfon , Ukwu Henry Ugochukwu
Published: August 2023

The emergence of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) has created a new market with significant implications for stakeholders, particularly in industries such as art, fashion, gaming, and real-world assets, leading to challenges in finance, financial pricing, financial management, risk management, and cryptocurrency issues. This research paper adopts a quantitative approach to provide a comprehensive analysis of the challenges associated with NFTs, including their impact on the art market, risks related to ownership rights, and proper financial statement treatment. Additionally, the paper examines the challenges of accounting for NFTs under the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), including valuation, tax treatment, and accounting considerations. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in creating, verifying, and authenticating NFTs, as well as detecting potential fraud and valuing them in the market, is also discussed. Finally, the paper provides recommendations for companies and accounting professionals on addressing the challenges associated with NFTs under IFRS. The research contributes to the ongoing debate on the best practices for NFT accounting, the evolving nature of digital assets, and the role of AI in this emerging market.

Bayesian estimation of past astronomical frequencies, lunar distance, and length of day from sediment cycles
Authors: Malinverno Alberto , Meyers Stephen R.
Published: August 2023

Astronomical cycles recorded in stratigraphic sequences offer a powerful
data source to estimate Earth’s axial precession frequency k, as well as
the frequency of rotation of the planetary perihelia (gi) and of the
ascending nodes of their orbital planes (si). Together, these
frequencies control the insolation cycles (eccentricity, obliquity and
climatic precession) that affect climate and sedimentation, providing a
geologic record of ancient Solar system behavior spanning billions of
years. Here we introduce two Bayesian methods that harness stratigraphic
data to quantitatively estimate ancient astronomical frequencies and
their uncertainties. The first method (TimeOptB) calculates the
posterior probability density function (PDF) of the axial precession
frequency k and of the sedimentation rate u for a given
cyclostratigraphic data set, while setting the Solar system frequencies
gi and si to fixed values. The second method (TimeOptBMCMC) applies an
adaptive Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm to efficiently sample the
posterior PDF of all the parameters that affect astronomical cycles
recorded in stratigraphy: five gi, five si, k, and u. We also include an
approach to assess the significance of detecting astronomical cycles in
cyclostratigraphic records. The methods provide an extension of current
approaches that is computationally efficient and well suited to recover
the history of astronomical cycles, Earth-Moon history, and the
evolution of the Solar system from geological records. As case studies,
data from the Xiamaling Formation (N. China, 1.4 Ga) and ODP Site 1262
(S. Atlantic, 55 Ma) are evaluated, providing updated estimates of
astronomical frequencies, Earth-Moon history, and secular resonance
terms.
Mountaintop gamma ray observations of three terrestrial gamma-ray flashes at the Santis Tower, Switzerland with coincident radio waveforms

Published: August 2023

We report on the mountain top observation of three terrestrial gamma-ray
flashes (TGFs) that occurred during the summer storm season of 2021. To
our knowledge, these are the first TGFs observed in a mountaintop
environment and the first published European TGFs observed from the
ground. A gamma-ray sensitive detector was located at the base of the
Santis Tower in Switzerland and observed three unique TGF events with
coincident radio sferic data characteristic of TGFs seen from space. We
will show an example of a ‘slow pulse’ radio signature (Cummer et al.,
2011; Lu et al.,2011; Pu et al., 2019, 2020), a -EIP (Lyu et al., 2016;
2021a; Cummer et al., 2017; Wada et al., 2020), and a double peak TGF
associated with an extraordinarily powerful and complicated
positive-polarity sferic, where each TGF peak is possibly preceded by a
short burst of stepped leader emission.
The Impact of Ozone Production on Future Cold Point Tropopause Warming and Expansion
Authors: Bourguet Stephen
Published: August 2023

A robust thermodynamic response of increased greenhouse gas forcing is
an expansion of the troposphere, which may decrease ozone concentrations
in the lower stratosphere and warm the tropopause. Yet, observations of
lower stratospheric ozone do not agree with model projections, and the
net effect of greenhouse gas forcing on the temperature structure of the
region between the tropical troposphere and stratosphere is unclear.
Here, I isolate the role of local ozone production in setting the height
of the cold point tropopause and the ozone concentrations above this
level. Increased ozone production near the tropopause following
tropospheric expansion will sharpen the vertical ozone gradient of the
lower stratosphere and decrease the distance between the top of the
troposphere and the cold point tropopause. This would suppress
tropospheric expansion and increase the water vapor concentration of the
stratosphere, which amplifies global warming and contributes to
stratospheric ozone destruction.
Predicting the three-dimensional age-depth field of an ice rise
Authors: Henry A. Clara J. , Schannwell Clemens , Višnjević Vjeran , Millstein Joanna , Bons Paul D , Eisen Olaf , Drews Reinhard
Published: August 2023

Ice rises situated around the perimeter of Antarctica buttress ice flow
and contain information about the past climate and changes in flow
regime. Moreover, ice rises contain convergent and divergent flow
regimes, and both floating and grounded ice over comparatively small
spatial scales, meaning they are ideal locations to study ice-flow
dynamics. Here, we introduce a new modelling framework that permits the
comparison between modelled and observed stratigraphy. A
thermo-mechanically coupled, isotropic, full Stokes ice flow model with
a dynamic grounding line is used (Elmer/Ice). The result is the
simulated age-depth field of a three-dimensional, steady-state ice rise
which is dynamically coupled to the surrounding ice shelf. Applying the
model to Derwael Ice Rise, results show a good match between observed
and modelled stratigraphy over most of the ice rise and predict
approximately $8000$ year old ice at a depth of $95$
\%. Differences in the prediction of age between
simulations using Glen’s flow law exponents of $n=3$ and $n=4$ are
generally small ($<5$ \% over most areas).
In the ice rise shear zones, large differences in shear strain rates in
the velocity direction are found between the $n=3$ and the $n=4$
simulations. Our simulations indicate that a Glen’s flow law exponent of
$n=4$ may be better suited when modelling ice rises due to a
steady-state geometry which is closer to the observed geometry. Our
three-dimensional modelling framework can easily be transferred to other
ice rises and has relevance for researchers interested in ice core
dating and understanding ice-flow re-organisation.

Forensic Genetics and the Differentiation of Monozygotic Twins by Mitochondrial DNA Analysis
Authors: Antonio LU* and Fridman C Antonio LU* and Fridman C
Published: August 2023

Forensic genetics uses STR markers as the gold standard for human identification. However, this technique does not allow the differentiation of monozygotic twins, since they originate from the fertilization of a single egg and a single sperm. Studies aiming to solve this problem have been developed and the complete sequencing of mitochondrial DNA has shown to be relevant. The present study aimed to verify the possibility of differentiating monozygotic twins through the analysis of the d-loop region of mitochondrial DNA, using the Sanger sequencing technique in blood and oral mucosa samples. Twelve pairs of volunteer monozygotic twins were selected, zygosity was confirmed by analyzing the genetic profile generated using STR markers. Regarding analyses of the d-loop region of mitochondrial DNA, a single pair of twins (gm46) showed a point heteroplasmy at position 16,290 (HV1). However, this finding was not able to differentiate between individuals of the same pair, since both showed the heteroplasmy in both biological samples (blood and oral mucosa). No other genetic variation was detected in the pairs of twins analyzed that could differentiate them. We suggest analyzing the mitochondrial DNA molecule as a whole in an attempt to identify a greater amount of potential variation by applying the Massive Parallel Sequencing technique.
Revisiting Hunterella nodulosa Mackiewicz and McCrae, 1962 (Cestoda: Caryophyllidae) from Catostomus commersoni (Lacépède) with a Special Treatment of its Ecological Diversity in Wisconsin Waters
Authors: Amin Omar M
Published: August 2023

Specimens of Hunterella nodulosa Mackiewicz and McCrae, 1962 (Caryophyllidae) were first collected in SE Wisconsin from the white sucker Catostomus commersoni (Lacépède) in Tichigan Lake and the Root and Pike rivers. We update our first and only 1986 account of these Wisconsin populations from Tichigan Lake, with new observations and measurements, and compare them with those in the original and other descriptions. The morphology of H. nodulosa is revisited using light microscopy revealing new features. Emphasis is placed on the morphological variability of its unusual scolex and reproductive structures with variable ovarian shapes using many microscopic images depicting real-life forms. Measurements of 10 specimens and the re-examination of 12, 85, and 33 more specimens from Tichigan Lake, Root River, and Pike River for the first time, respectively provided an opportunity to review the taxonomy and description of the species, distinguish morphometric locality differences, and correct and update other statements and concepts by other observers. The disconnected distribution of worms from the same host species in separate waters within Wisconsin and in various states may be related to the disjunct post-glacial distribution of their primary hosts.
Histopathological Investigation of the Giant Prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii in the Extensive Culture Ponds of Nellore Region, Andhra Pradesh, India
Authors: K Sivachandrabose
Published: August 2023

The present study was carried out in Muthukur area of Nellore region of Andhra Pradesh located at 14.29 19 latitude and 80.10383 longitude), India since this area is actively engaged with aquaculture activities of fish and prawn farming. A recent data indicated that 280 to 984 kg per hectare per crop achieved in Macrobrachium rosenbergii under extensive system in a culture period of 180 to 210 with stocking density of 3 to 5 juveniles per square meter. Since the scampi Macrobrachium rosenbergii was the candidate as well as prominent species in that region, histopathological study was carried out to the see quality of the prawn for the present study. During the investigation of shrimp disease in the culture pond, the prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii were found to die due to swollen head disease having enlargement of cephalothoracic region containing gill, heart and hepatopancreas, etc. Another kind of symptom of black spots were noticed on the dorsal portion of anterior exoskeleton in the cephalothorax region. Enlargement of pigmentary with black spots formed in the periphery of dorsal side of exoskeleton might be due to the presence of suspected white spot syndrome virus. This kind of disease was found to attack commonly in Macrobrachium rosenbergii in most of the culture ponds. Apart from the study of shrimp disease in culture ponds, attempts were also made to identify the disease in the post larvae of Macrobrachium rosenbergii in the hatchery in and around Nellore region. Mass mortality was found to occur in the post larval stages due to a kind of white muscle disease. It has led to great loss of economy not only to the entrepreneurs involved in the hatchery at Nellore region but also to the country as well. WSSV was characterised by prominent eosinophilic to pale basophilic intra nuclear inclusion bodies in hypertrophied nuclei of most commonly in the epithelial cells and connective tissue cells of the above target tissues. Result of the study showed that multiple infection is quite common in the prawn to be cultured once the water quality has become deteriorated and It is suggested that although it is a extensive culture system, water management and supplement of feeds are prerequisite to maintain the pond.
Metabolic, Antioxidant and Hematologic Adjustment of Red Tilapia (Oreochromis sp) Fed Commercial Diets with Different Protein Levels and Reared in Sea Water with Biofloc
Authors: Vargas Isaura Banuelos
Published: August 2023

This study was conducted to evaluate the physiological response of juvenile red tilapia Oreochromis sp. (initial average body weight of 2.82 ± 0.02 g) reared in seawater with biofloc and fed extruded commercial diets containing 25, 35 and 40% of crude protein (P25, P35 and P40, respectively). After 7 weeks of assay, fish fed P35 and P40 showed similar weight gain, specific growth rate, fed conversion ratio and Fulton's condition factor. Both, P35 and P40 showed higher values of growth performance than P25 treatment. Otherwise, fish from P35 showed the lower activity of metabolic enzymes (ASAT, ALAT, GK, FBPase, G6PD and FAS) than P40. While, fish from P25 showed the highest levels of catalase activity and lower values of hepatic lipid peroxidation (like MDA). However, the decrease in protein in the diets was reflected in the decrease in Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) and Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration, as well as a decrease in the concentration of albumin in the blood plasma. In conclusion, the marine biofloc allows hybrid red tilapia juveniles to be fed with 35% CP without compromising their productive performance, antioxidant system and hematological parameters.

“... Em 1982, quando lancei a Revista Portuguesa de Medicina Desportiva, a especialidade ainda não era reco¬nhecida em Portugal. Foi, portanto, uma lufada de ar fresco, que aju¬dou a que muitos jovens médicos pudessem publicar os seus trabalhos ao lado dos colegas considerados na altura gurus na área. ... ... Então, pensei que se os médicos nos seus locais de trabalho praticas¬sem EF, as populações que eles ser¬viam perceberiam melhor a mensa¬gem. As várias equipas que iam aos JMN treinavam intensamente para lá obterem os melhores resultados. O número de inscritos (Jogos Médicos Nacionais) chegou num ano a superar os 800 médicos. Associando a este número, marido e mulher de médicos, mais uma média de dois filhos por casal e acrescentando o corpo de árbitros e demais técnicos para fazerem fun¬cional as 17 modalidades, chegámos a ter em Troia mais de 3000 pessoas.... Há uma evolução tal que me transcende e que seria impensável em 1982. A eletromedicina e as diversas técnicas de reabilitação atuais entre outros fatores e, especialmente, o aparecimento da especialidade de MD e do maior número de colegas dedicados à área, fazem toda a diferença em relação ao meu tempo.”

The art of wicker is one of the most ancient craftsmanship not only in Azerbaijan, but all over the world. It should be noted that mat weaving played the role of the basis in the development of weaving art. The women who have made rich contributions to the art of weaving have also created a rich tradition and a wide range of kinds of crafts in the weaving field. As in other fields of craftsmanship, women have created many varieties of weaving.

Storage containers, baskets, janamaz, tablecloths, hangers, and etc., have been created from wicker. The article examines the important and ancient role of this craftsmanship. It should be noted that the reeds growing in the swamp dry up and turn into a beautiful and delightful work of art.
Osmanlı Devleti’nin XIX. Yüzyıl Ordu Atı Tedarik Mekanizmaları Hakkında Arşiv Belgeleri Üzerinden Bir Tartışma
Authors: TAN Seda
Published: August 2023

Osmanlı Devleti atçılık kültürünün ileri seviyeye ulaştığı bir siyasi yapılanma olmuştur. Bunda Orta Asya bozkır geleneğinden önemli ölçüde nasiplenilmesi belirleyici bir etkendir. Öte yandan devlet de açtığı yetiştiricilik kurumlarıyla bu tradisyonu himaye ve teşvik eden bir rol üstlenmiştir. Böylece Osmanlılar atın ordu güçlerinin bel kemiğini teşkil ettiği devirlerde büyük süvari kuvvetlerine sahip olan ve bunu kendi iç dinamikleriyle besleyebilen sayılı devletten birini meydana getirmişlerdir. Ancak devletin aynı zamanda bir çözülme süreci yaşadığı XIX. yüzyılın siyasi, askeri ve ekonomik değişkenleri içerisinde at yetiştiriciliği de ciddi bir gerilemeye maruz kalmıştır. Devletin kadim yetiştiricilik ocaklarını bünyesinde barındıran ‘tımar sisteminin tasfiyesi’ ve 1853-1856 Kırım Savaşı’nı takiben ‘ordu atlarının dış piyasalardan tedarikine yönelinmesi’ söz konusu gerilemede belirleyici rol üstlenen iki önemli gelişme olmuştur. Ele alınan çalışma Osmanlıların askeri nitelikteki at ihtiyacını dış piyasalardan tedarik etmeye çalıştığı 1890-1900 aralığını ele almaktadır. Dış alımların yoğun olduğu bu aralıkta birinci el kaynak niteliğindeki resmi devlet kayıtlarından hareketle konunun temel bazı dinamikleri ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır.

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the feasibility of using shape memory alloy (SMA) implants for atlantoaxial joint stabilization using a rabbit model as a substitute for canines.

ANIMALS

20 rabbit cadavers.

METHODS

We prepared rabbit cadavers from the middle of the skull to the third cervical vertebra. The vertebral body and canal sizes of the atlas and axis were compared using CT data from rabbits, normal dogs, and dogs with atlantoaxial instability (AAI) to assess the feasibility of using rabbits as substitutes for toy-breed dogs. The shape memory alloy (SMA) implants were designed to stabilize the atlantoaxial joint without compromising the spinal canal passage for safety and were classified into SMA-1 and SMA-2 based on their design. To evaluate the strength, the ventrodorsal force was measured with atlantoaxial ligaments intact, after removing the ligaments, and after applying conventional wire or SMA implants to stabilize the atlantoaxial joint. The time taken for implant application was measured.

RESULTS

No significant difference in vertebral body size of the atlas and axis was observed. A significant difference in vertebral canal size was observed between the animals. In biomechanical testing, the SMA-2 implant provided more stabilization, while the SMA-1 implant had lower strength than the conventional method using wires. The application time of wire was the longest, while that of SMA-1 was the shortest.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

SMA implants provide comparable strength and demonstrate superior efficacy compared to conventional dorsal wire fixation of atlantoaxial stabilization. Therefore, SMA implants can be an effective surgical option for AAI.

Arguing that maintaining a separate relationship at a distance is closer, the consequences of excessive use of smartphones can actually reduce physical closeness by making people who are physically close to further. Loneliness is the subjective psychological discomfort people experience when their network of social relationships is significantly deficient in either quality or quantity. The objective of the present study was to investigate the relationship between smartphone addiction and loneliness among young adults. The population in this study were young adults of Aceh. These samples included 400 young adults in Aceh. The sampling technique used was unrestricted self-selected surveys. Data collection tools used are Smartphone Addiction Scale and University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) Loneliness Scale Version 3. The reliability of the scale of smartphone addiction and loneliness in this study .912 and .888. The analysis used in the parametric method was product-moment correlation analysis. The result showed there was a positive and significant correlation between smartphone addiction and loneliness (r = .432, p.05).

Pencapaian prestasi dalam bidang akademik tidak hanya memberikan kepuasan dan meningkatnya rasa percaya diri bagi mahasiswa, namun pencapaian tersebut juga dapat memunculkan perasaan tidak layak akan keberhasilan, kondisi ini disebut dengan impostor phenomenon. Fenomena impostor dapat menimbulkan kecemasan, stress dan bahkan depresi jika terus menerus terjadi. Oleh karena itu, mahasiswa membutuhkan resiliensi agar mampu menyelesaikan masalah ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara resiliensi dengan impostor phenomenon pada mahasiswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 297 mahasiswa. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan convenience sampling, data penelitian dikumpulkan menggunakan Clance Impostor Phenomenon Scale dan Brief Resilience Scale. Analisis data menggunakan teknik korelasi Pearson menunjukkan nilai koefisien korelasi r=-0.249 dengan nilai signifikansi p=0.000 (p0.05). Hasil tersebut menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan negatif antara resiliensi dengan impostor phenomenon pada mahasiswa, artinya semakin tinggi kemampuan resiliensi maka semakin rendah impostor phenomenon dan sebaliknya.

Authors: Jastaniah Nourhan , Aljehani Nouf
Published: August 2023

According to the literature, there is evidence of an association between the development of asthma and the microbiome. Here, this systematic review aimed to study the role of microbes in developing pediatric asthma. This systemic literature review was conducted comprehensively on the PubMed database between 2013 and June 2023 to explore the role of airway microbiome in developing pediatric asthma. The general search keywords used were: [(Asthma) AND (children)] AND (Airway microbiome). The inclusion criteria were sufficient details on the role of airway microbiome in developing pediatric asthma. Meanwhile, the exclusion criteria were studies discussing the role of airway microbiome in developing pediatric asthma in adults, case reports, letters, reviews, and studies published in languages other than English. Our search identified 34 articles obtained from the PubMed database. After the full-text inspection, only five studies met the inclusion criteria for the systematic review. The sample size of the study subjects was 679 children ranging from 0 to 16 years. The study designs included integrated clinical, systematic integrative, prospective observational, and cohort studies. Microorganisms were detected from the nasopharyngeal, nasal, bronchial airways, oropharynx, hypopharynx, and nostrils. Regarding the detected microbes, Staphylococcus aureus was detected in one study, Streptococcus in two studies, and Streptococcus pneumonia and Moraxella catarrhalis were found in two studies. The review concluded that bacterial infections, particularly those caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, M. catarrhalis, and viral infections (mainly rhinovirus and respiratory syncytial virus), have been associated with increased asthma development among children. Further studies are needed to understand microbial infection mechanisms for developing pediatric asthma.

La constante incorporación de didácticas tecnológicas al escenario educativo ha provocado una verdadera revolución en la concepción de la enseñanza y el aprendizaje. El presente estudio realizado con una muestra de 256 estudiantes, se enmarca dentro del proceso de difusión de resultados de un proyecto colaborativo interuniversitario entre profesores de la Universidad de Murcia y Salamanca, con la finalidad de conocer la valoración que realizan los estudiantes, futuros profesionales de la educación, sobre el uso de Kahoot! como herramienta docente de gamificación en la asignatura de Metodología de Investigación Educativa, analizando la influencia del género en dichas valoraciones. Los resultados obtenidos, planteados como evaluación de necesidades para la toma de decisiones futuras en materia de igualdad, muestran que pese a que todos los estudiantes consideran que Kahoot! y su metodolgoía lúdica, constituyen un buen recurso didáctico que potencia y favorece el desarrollo de competencias, son los estudiantes varones quienes se posicionan más a favor de la utilidad y practicidad de esta herramienta y sus benificios en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje

Authors: Kolpakov Petr Aleksandrovich
Published: August 2023

The article is devoted to the reconstruction of the historical experience of police protection of postal institutions by the ranks of gendarmerie police departments of railways in the Russian Empire. The purpose of this article is to study the main measures that were implemented by the gendarmerie police to ensure the safety of postal transportation by rail, as well as the disclosure of the tactics of intruders who committed daring robberies on mail trains. The object of the study is the historical experience of the official activities of the gendarmerie railway police of the Russian Empire. The subject is the police protection of the activities of the post office within the railways by gendarmes. Following the fundamental principles of historicism, comprehensiveness and objectivity formed the methodological basis of the study. During the research, the author relied on the apparatus of general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, induction, concretization. The use of special historical research methods made it possible to reveal the content of the process of police protection of postal items from criminal encroachments within the domestic railways: from the standpoint of the historical-systematic method, the gendarmerie service is understood as an integral complex of interrelated measures; the historical-genetic method made it possible to form a detailed description of the main features of the railway gendarmes service in terms of the protection of postal goods.
Italian «erudite comedy» in the sociocultural and linguistic context of the 16th century
Authors: Kuteko Daria Andreevna
Published: August 2023

The Italian «erudite comedy» was an important stage in the development of the Western European theater, a kind of mediator between ancient dramaturgy and the dramaturgy of the New Age, and although its artistic merits are ambiguously assessed, its appearance and flourishing in the era of the formation of the literary Italian language give to the modern researcher a happy opportunity to get acquainted with different registers of the Italian language during this period. Thus, the subject of this article is the development and the peculiarities of the genre of «erudite comedy» in the Central regions, in the North and in the South of Italy in the XVI century. The purpose is to identify the main trends of its formation. The main research methods are the comparative method, the method of linguistic and cultural interpretation and sociolinguistic methods. Earlier comedies often became subject of literary analysis, but were not used as a source useful for sociolinguistic research. The results of the work consist in generalizing existing and obtaining new information about the development of «erudite comedy» in different regions of Italy and can be applied in further sociolinguistic research because to present the linguistic situation of the XVI century in its entirety it is necessary to take into account both its participants and data about them – territorial features, regional characteristics, level of education.
La intensificación del uso de la tierra disminuye el carbono orgánico del suelo en bosques del Chaco Seco, Córdoba

Los cambios en el uso de la tierra han reducido de forma drástica los bosques del Chaco Seco del centro de la Argentina. En particular, la conversión de bosques a cultivos ha generado pérdidas significativas en el carbono orgánico del suelo (COS) y en los servicios ecosistémicos asociados al mismo. Por su parte, cambios menos drásticos en el uso, como la conversión de bosques a arbustales producto de la intensificación en la tala y la ganadería, también pueden afectar considerablemente la dinámica del COS. En este trabajo evaluamos el COS total, el COS presente en la materia orgánica particulada (C-MOP) y en la materia orgánica asociada a minerales (C-MOAM), y la respiración microbiana potencial de los 0-10 cm de suelo bajo condiciones controladas en cuatro fisonomías vegetales del Chaco Seco de Córdoba, resultantes de la intensificación en la tala y en la ganadería. El contenido de COS disminuyó un 73% en la fisonomía con mayor intensidad de uso (arbustal abierto) en relación con el bosque conservado. Esto se reflejó en una disminución del C-MOP (-85%), considerado más sensible al manejo, y en una disminución en el C-MOAM (-54%), considerado más estable. La intensificación en el uso también disminuyó hasta un 62% la actividad microbiana. Sin embargo, las pérdidas de carbono por respiración microbiana podrían intensificarse por una reducción de la protección física en las fisonomías vegetales con mayor uso. Nuestros resultados sugieren que la tala y el pastoreo en bosques del Chaco Seco pueden generar importantes alteraciones en el almacenamiento y en la estabilización del COS, lo que puede conducir a la degradación del suelo y a la pérdida de servicios ecosistémicos clave.
Substance use by Aotearoa's Sexual Minority Youth: Self-esteem and the LGBTQ+ Community
Authors:   , Robyns Mackay Hope
Published: August 2023

It has been established that, from young ages, sexual minority individuals experience higher rates of substance use and associated negative outcomes than their heterosexual peers. However, the results of research investigating the relationships between substance use and self-esteem, and substance use and connectedness to/participation in the LGBTQ+ community in sexual minority youth remain ambiguous in the literature. My thesis describes two studies; one investigating the relationships between self-esteem and substance use in a sample of 1950 high school students (56% female) of different sexual orientations; the other the relationships between self-esteem, substance use, and participation in and connectedness to the LGBTQ+ community in a sample of 169 sexual minority university students (71% women). The latter study is the first to investigate these relationships in Aotearoa New Zealand.

Consistent with expectations, my first study found that greater substance use was associated with lower self-esteem in both heterosexual and bisexual participants. Bisexuals reported the highest levels of substance use and lowest self-esteem, while asexual participants reported the least substance use. In my second study, participants attracted to multiple genders again reported the greatest substance use, and their greater participation in the LGBTQ+ community was associated with greater self-esteem. Those experiencing little to no sexual attraction reported the highest self-esteem, and also the lowest levels of connection to the LGBTQ+ community. I interpret these findings in relation to Self-Derogation Theory, Social Ties Theory and Minority Stress Theory. Self-esteem is indicated as an intervention target for sexual minority youth at risk of problem behaviours, and no evidence is found suggesting participation in or connection to the LGBTQ+ community to be risk factors for such behaviour.
