Abstract. The vertical distribution of ozone plays an important role in atmospheric chemistry, climate change, air pollution, and human health. Over the twenty-first century, spaceborne remote sensing methods and instrumentation have evolved to better characterise this distribution. We quantify the ability of ozone retrievals to characterise this distribution through a combination of thermal infrared (TIR) and Ultra Violet (UV) spectral radiances, harnessing co-located TIR measurements from the Cross Track Infrared Sounder (CrIS), onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP), and UV measurements from the TROPospheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI), which is on the Sentinel 5-Precursor (S5P) satellite. The combination of TIR and UV measurements improves the ability of satellites to characterise global ozone profiles, over the use of each band individually. The CrIS retrievals enhanced by TROPOMI radiances in the Huggins band (325–335 nm) show good agreement with independent datasets both in the troposphere and in the stratosphere in spite of calibration issues in the TROPOMI UV. Improved performance is characterised in the stratosphere from CrIS-TROPOMI. Comparable performance between CrIS-TROPOMI and CrIS-only is found in the troposphere with degrees of freedom for signal of about 2 globally, but higher in the tropics partitioned equally between the lower and upper troposphere. These results demonstrate that CrIS/TROPOMI retrievals have the potential to substantially improve our understanding of ozone. If spectral accuracy is improved in future TROPOMI calibration, the degrees of freedom of signal in the stratosphere could double when using bands 1 and 2 of TROPOMI (270–330 nm), while tropospheric degrees of freedom of signal could increase by 25 %.

Abstract. The Qinghai Tibet Plateau (QTP), known as the Roof of the World and the Water Tower of Asia, has the largest number of lakes in the world, and because of its high altitude and near absence of disturbances by human activity, the plateau has long been an important site for studying global climate change. Hydrological stations cannot be readily set up in this region, and in situ gauge data are not always publicly accessible. Satellite radar altimetry has become a very important alternative to in situ observations as a source of data. Estimation of the water levels of lakes via radar altimetry is often limited by temporal and spatial coverage, and, therefore, multi-altimeter data are often used to monitor lake levels. Restricted by the accuracy of waveform processing and the interval period between different altimetry missions, the accuracy and the sampling frequency of the water level series are typically low. By processing and merging data from eight different altimetry missions, the developed datasets provided the water level changes for 362 lakes (larger than 10 km2) in the QTP from 2002 to 2021. The period for the lake level change series, which affords high accuracy, can be much longer for many lake systems. The present datasets and associated approaches are valuable for calculating the changes in lake storage, trend analyses of the lake levels, short-term monitoring of the overflow of lakes, flooding disasters on the plateau, and the relationships between changes in the lake ecosystems and changes in the water resources.
“Hear Me Talking to You”: Improvisation and the Auricular Imperative in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom
Authors: Grandt Jürgen E.
Published: October 2022

Students of August Wilson’s play have heretofore focused almost exclusively on the title song and have thus not heard that the plot actually revolves around an auricular imperative set forth by another tune recorded at the session, “Hear Me Talking to You.” Its rehearsal and recording augur that the deadly violence is ultimately propelled by a failure to listen much more so than by the racial exigencies of America’s Jazz Age. Unlike the solitary act of writing, collective music-making depends crucially on aural connectivity—just as actors on stage must also listen to each other. This auricular imperative, then, is also an ethical one as it demands an openness and receptiveness to the story of the other. In music, especially in improvised music, self-actualization is subject to an ethics of responsible listening: successful music-making therefore comes with an interpersonal accountability to the sonorities of the others’ stories. Combining the two defining blues tropes of travel and of love gone wrong, the auricular imperative issued by “Hear Me Talking to You” applies to Ma Rainey, the Mother of the Blues, as much as to Levee Green, the young, upstart jazz modernist. Hence, Wilson’s play dramatizes listening as a profoundly ethical act, a paramount act whose obviation can bring tragic consequences. Ironically, George C. Wolfe’s cinematographic transposition of the play mutes the auricular imperative, returning the characters to the same old spiraling groove of the American race “record” instead of ending, as Wilson’s script does, on the self-actualizing potential inherent in musical improvisation.
Strengthening Rehabilitation Professional Identities: Including Grief Education as a Psychosocial Aspect of Disability
Authors: Tang Xiaolei , Rosenthal David A.
Published: October 2022

The primary objective of this paper is to call attention to rehabilitation counseling educators and leaders to include grief support as part of the rehabilitation counseling training curriculum. Disability and chronic illness have long been associated with loss, death anxiety, and chronic sorrow. The prevailing model of psychosocial adaptation to chronic illness and disability emanated from grief theories and has been well conceptualized and applied in both understanding disability experiences and providing effective services. However, rehabilitation counselors have expressed a lack of competency and confidence in understanding grief as a psychosocial concept and providing grief support for people with chronic illness and disabilities. Too often, pervasive understanding of grief and loss has been associated with pathology and prescriptive notions, which have been criticized by clinicians and scholars in bereavement research and practice. To address this concern, this paper proposes including grief support education in rehabilitation counselor training curricula. In addition, several suggestions are made for program design and implementation within the context of CACREP curricula requirements.

Published: October 2022

Aceh is one of the most earthquake-prone regions in Indonesia. It is, therefore, essential to design seismic resistance structures according to applicable standards. To reduce damage to building structures, the Indonesian government has updated the seismic-resistant design code for building and non-building structures. The seismic resistant design standard has been updated from SNI 03-1726-2012 to SNI 03-1726-2019 due to a significant change in spectrum response data. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the impacts on the seismic base shear and the cross-sectional area of columns, beams, and tie beams of buildings in 23 regencies in Aceh Province based on SNI 03-1726-2012 and SNI 03-1726-2019. A typical five-story office building with medium-type soil is used in the study. For structural analysis, a particular moment-resistant frame was considered. The determination of the design response spectra is carried out by using coordinates and soil types through the website “indo spectra”. The method used is spectrum response analysis. Some different requirements in the two standards include the spectrum response curve, mass participation, and dynamic base shear. The study’s results revealed that the dynamic base shear in Sabang City had grown by 192.05 percent. Aceh Barat Daya Regency was observed to have the smallest increase in dynamic base shear, which was only 8.16 percent. The required cross-sectional area of structural columns, beams, and tie beams in Sabang City increased by 96%, 40%, and 44.44%, respectively; in the meantime, the required cross-sectional area of columns, beams, and tie beams in several regencies in Aceh province remained unchanged.

Published: October 2022

Acehnese traditional clothing is one of the cultural heritages in Indonesia. In today's modern era, the problem faced is the lack of media to introduce cultural heritage in Aceh. Therefore, a media was formed that could introduce Aceh's traditional clothing, namely Southeast Aceh. The press utilizes Augmented Reality (AR) technology so that users can add virtual objects to the natural environment that are easy to use. In this study, a system design using Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams has been carried out, including use case diagrams, activity diagrams, and sequence diagrams. This system is built using the C++ language using the Unity application and the vuforiaSDK platform. Then the test results were obtained on the Southeast Aceh traditional clothing recognition application. Namely, the minimum distance that can display 3d objects is a distance of 5 cm, and the maximum distance that can be detected is 80 cm. Based on the test results in the distance test table, the best distance obtained, which results in the detection of markers that are still clear and bright, is at a distance between 5 cm to 70 cm. Meanwhile, at a distance of more than 80 cm, the marker cannot detect markers to display 3D objects because the distance between the camera and the marker is too far. Likewise, with the angular slope, the minimum angle of inclination detected is an angle of 0°, while the maximum angle of inclination detected is an angle of 75°. Based on the test results on the angle slope table, the best angle is obtained, which results in detecting markers that are still clear and bright at a distance between 0-60°. After that, testing is also carried out based on the lighting, where if the light is too bright or too dark, the camera cannot detect the marker.
The Effect of The Use Of Foam Agent and Clam Shell Powder on The Compressive Strength and Absorbency of Concrete
Authors: Ikmal Teuku , Manik Sari Indah , Yusuf Khairullah , Sarana David , Amalia Amalia
Published: October 2022

A foaming agent is a concentrated solution of surfactant material that must be dissolved in water before mixing with other concrete material. The foaming agent is used to produce lightweight concrete with a density is £ 1.900 kg/m³. Using foam agents may affect the compressive strength and absorbency of the concrete. Hence, adding clam shells is expected to improve the compressive strength of the foam concrete. In addition, it is also essential to investigate the effects of utilizing foam agents and clam shells on the density of the foam concrete. Nine concrete mixes namely 1 variation of standard concrete, four variations of concrete mixes with foam agent, and four variations of concrete with foam agent and calm shell have been studied to investigate the parameters.The variation of foam agents in the eight concrete mixes were 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by water weight. The last four variations contained clamshell of 5% by weight of fine aggregate. The foam agent wasfoamingduced by mixing with a ratio of water and foam agent of 40:1. The experimental results show that at the variation of 20% foam agent, the density reduced by 34.55% and 26.89% for foam concrete with and without clam shell compared to normal concrete. I contrast, adding clamshell also lowered down the compressive strength of foam concrete by 79.86% and 74.96% for the variations. Meanwhile, the highest absorption rate of 1.65% or increased about 6.45% from normal concrete occurred at a variation foam agent of 15% mixed with clamshell. It was concluded that the use of clam shell in the foam concrete seems to decrease the strength of the foam concrete. However, in terms of density, the use of clam shells benefits foam concrete by lowering the self-weight of concrete.

Published: October 2022

The facilitation of the transfer of knowledge and technology through globalization has also caused changes in the educational understandings of nations. Especially after the economic crises of the late 1970s and early 1980s, reforms were made that supported continuous development in teaching, and instead of heavy approaches that made the student a porter of information, strategic learning methods were organized. This situation has brought with it the conditions for the emergence of an understanding of quality in educational institutions. The understanding of quality is a management model that is spreading rapidly in educational institutions in our country in parallel with global developments. Although it first appeared in industrial enterprises, today it is applied in the form of a plane feature in all social work and operations.

Published: October 2022

O objetivo deste trabalho foi de compreender a BNCC como uma política de padronização curricular imersa a contextos similares aos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCNs), proposto no curso das Reformas Educacionais da década de 1990. Para tanto, o caminho metodológico se pautou em uma perspectiva crítico dialética, estabelecendo um diálogo entre os pontos de vista histórico, econômico e político educacional da atualidade e do momento histórico supracitado. Os resultados indicam que há uma similaridade entre a padronização curricular no contexto das Reformas do último decênio do século XX e a BNCC. Em que pese as particularidades da Base, remontam-se os mesmos dogmas neoliberais que embasaram os PCNs e o alinhamento deles com os testes padronizados e o economicismo na educação.

Second, with regard to person and gender, source language (SL) personal pronouns can be translated into their respective pairs in the target language (TL), Third, tense and aspects, source language (SL) can be translated lexically or understood from the context. The four, voices the active form in the source language (SL) can be translated into the target language (TL) in an active or passive form, and the passive form is translated into a passive form. In translation, when a message or information is omitted by changing the form of the sentence, it will cause problems as in the film the secret garden 56 minutes.
Form-Critical Analysis of the al-Rajīʿ and Biʾr Maʿūna Stories
Authors: Roohi Ehsan
Published: October 2022

Due to their heavy reliance on late, contradictory, and tendentious literary sources, scholars of formative Islam have always been in danger of taking as authentic evidence what is mere literary topos. Adopting a form-critical methodology that includes both classic and “new” approaches to the accounts of the al-Rajīʿ and Biʾr Maʿūna expeditions, this article strives to reveal the literary devices deployed in the sources and to demonstrate the motivations behind their utilization. It will argue, using the classic form-critical method, that reports about the al-Rajīʿ and Biʾr Maʿūna raids reflect far more about the circumstances of their composition and redaction than about first/seventh-century Arabia. Motivated by second/eighth-century tribal feuds, many components of these narratives owe their existence to later modifications and adornments that were retrojected to the time of the Prophet Muḥammad. We shall, furthermore, see that by the third/ninth century, when tribal motivations ceased to be amongst the prime socio-political exigencies of the time, new incentives emerged for the transmission of these narratives, which can be uncovered through implementation of “new” form criticism.

Published: October 2022

Breast cancer becomes one of the most serious health issues among women and leading cause of death among them. Breast cancer continues to be prevalent and growing malignancy among women. While since last two decades, breast cancer research has led to a remarkable progress in understanding the breast malignancies and thus resulting in treatments of less toxicity and more efficiency. Breast cancer is a diverse disease having different molecular and histological features; and different groups of breast cancer response differently to different treatment therapies. Besides stage of the disease, the rate of prognosis and survival also depends on molecular subtype. So, for the proper treatment of breast cancer, it is important to know the complete classification of breast cancer and their response to different treatment strategies. About 25% of histological type of breast cancer is invasive breast cancer. Based on morphology, behavior and clinical presentation invasive breast cancer show broad range of tumor types. Molecular classification generally based on gene expression of mRNA. Molecular subtype provide new provides for the treatment strategies for breast cancer treatment.

Published: October 2022

Background/Aim: Children and young adults are frequently affected by traumatic eye injuries resulting in hyphema. This aim of this study was to determine the incidence, complications and visual implication of traumatic hyphema among children in South-East Nigeria.
Materials and Methods: A ten years retrospective study conducted in two mission hospitals located in two urban cities in Anambra state, Nigeria. Needed information which included socio-demographics and clinical findings among others, was extracted from the case files of children who had eye trauma within the period under review and entered into a pro-forma designed for the study. The information was analyzed using statistical package for social science, version 20(SPSS-20). Associations/correlations were tested using Pearson correlation and p ≤ 0.05 was accepted as statistically significant.
Results: Thirty nine out of 211 children with eye trauma had hyphema. This gave a ten-year cumulative incidence of 18.5%. Traumatic hyphema was commoner in males than in females; male:female = 1.8:1. The age range of the children with traumatic hyphema was 4-17 years (mean=1 0.1 ± 3.7 years). Playing was the commonest activity at time of injury and stick, cane and stone were the commonest objects of injury. Early presentation was associated with lesser complications and better visual prognosis. Higher grades of hyphema were associated with higher rates of complications. There was no significant association between sickle cell trait/disease and hyphema grade or complications
Conclusion: There is high incidence of hyphema among children with ocular trauma. Early presentation to hospital and appropriate prompt treatment is important in preventing possible sight-threatening complications.

The study examined the influence of agricultural financing on economic growth in Nigeria over the period 1981 to 2019. The objective of the study is to the impact of the long-term relationship between various forms of agricultural financing on Nigeria’s economic growth. The study employs the stationary test, the co-integration test, the error correction model and the Granger causality model. All variables were stationary at the first difference, and the co-integration test evidenced a long-run relationship. The study identified, in the long run, that; the agricultural credit guarantee scheme fund shows a positive and significant influence on the gross domestic product in Nigeria. The commercial bank loan and community –micro-finance bank loan shows a positive and significant influence on the gross domestic product in Nigeria within the reference period. In light of the findings, the study concluded that all the variables employed predict Nigeria’s gross domestic product. Furthermore, the granger causality results show a demand following a role as against supply leading role, revealing that increase in output level in Nigeria significantly support/promotes agricultural financial instrument. The study recommends that the Federal government should motivate commercial banks to provide adequate credit facilities to the Agricultural sector through moderate bank lending rates for ease of farming business in Nigeria. Proactive campaigns on the availability of credit facilities for farmers to enable them to have access to loans at a single-digit interest rate. This could be achieved through social media, door-to-door vibes, town hall meetings and market squares. Government should create an enabling environment for farmers through the provision of adequate security, pest control measures and seedlings.

The genus Dracocephalum L. belongs to the family Lamiaceae Lindl. (Labiatae), whose plants are of interest as sources for medicinal preparations. These two species of Dracocephalum are related to Dracocephalum moldavica L., used in folk medicine for respiratory diseases, as an antipyretic agent, for asthenia, as a potency-increasing agent. Studies have shown that some species of Dracocephalum have antibacterial, antitussive, antidiarrheal, antioxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic and sedative properties. To determine the localization features of certain groups of secondary metabolites in the aerial part of Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. and Dracocephalum nutans L. growing in the territory of Central Kazakhstan at the microscopic level. Materials and methods. Cross-sections of stems, flowers, and D. ruyschiana and D. nutans were fixed in Strauss-Fleming solution, after which histochemical reactions were carried out to locate and identify essential oils, phenolic acids, flavonoids, sesquiterpene lactones, polysaccharides and alkaloids. The study of microscopic features, as well as histochemical tests were carried out according to the methods of the State Pharmacopoeia of the Republic of Kazakhstan using a light microscope Biomed-4.

Published: October 2022

Antibiotic resistance among bacterial pathogens especially gram-negative bacteria has risen markedly over the last decade. Inadequacy of the commercial antibiotics against multidrug resistant strains of bacteria has necessitated the search for effective antimicrobials from lesser explored ecosystems. Recently, cave actinomycetes have drawn considerable attention as a source of novel antibacterial agents. Garhwal Himalayan region in Uttarakhand abodes several pristine caves which have not been previously explored for their actinomycetes diversity. The present study has been designed to have an insight into the bioactive spectrum of cave actinomycetes of Garhwal Himalaya. In the present study, a total of 103 actinomycetes were isolated from three distinct caves. Streptomyces sp. was found to be the predominant species in all the samples. The recovered actinomycetes were screened for their antibacterial activities with a focus on their activity against MDR E. coli, A. baumannii, S. pyogens, MRSA and VRE. faecalis. Isolates RCM1, RCM14 and SCM1 showed significant antibacterial activities. SCM1 was found to be most promising isolate exhibiting remarkable inhibition against MDR bacterial pathogens.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to prepare pregabalin loaded niosomal dispersion for controlled release of drug and achieve therapeutic effect for longer duration than the available drug delivery. Methods: The niosome carriers were formulated using non-ionic surfactants and cholesterol ratio of 1:1. The effects of non-ionic surfactant and cholesterol on the average particle size and percent entrapment efficiency were studied. Optimization of the formulation was performed by factorial design using Design expert software 11.0. Results: Based on the solutions provided by the design expert software, the formulation resulted in the particle size of 490 nm and 92.4% EE as compared to the predicted values of 491.02nm for particle size and 90% EE. The optimized niosome carriers appeared as multilamellar vesicles, as evident by a scanning electron microscopy study. Anticonvulsant activity of the niosomal dispersion was determined by Pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) induced convulsions in mice. Pregabalin-loaded niosomal dispersion displayed a sustained and moderate anticonvulsant effect upto 24 h. Conclusion: Therefore, the present study revealed the possibility of using non-ionic surfactant niosomes as carrier systems for prolonged release of pregabalin.
Om å benevne det unevnelige – «Sommeren 58» av Annie Ernaux og psykoanalytisk traumeteori
Authors: Sandbæk Linda
Published: October 2022

A fundamental concern in understanding and treating trauma-related disorders is that such experiences – due to dissociation or displacement – are not integrated in ordinary memory systems and thus appear and operate beyond words. Through its indirect, experimental, and often surprising depictions, fiction approaches the gap between experience and survival and can shed light on the complexities of trauma. Here, Annie Ernaux’s depictions of the narrativization process in her novel A girl’s story (2020) are used as a point of departure for reflections on how and under what circumstances it might be possible to find words for experiences that have neither been recognized by the person implied nor talked about before. Through close reading, and in dialog with psychoanalytic trauma theory, I discuss how we might understand the possibility of representing trauma symbolically and the different modes of such representation. The movement between an experiential and a more reflective mode is discussed as a feature of Ernaux’s narrative that might have enabled the integration of experiences in consciousness. I discuss how Ernaux’s literary project described as “making the personal universal” can be understood as a process aimed at constituting a reality that had been cut off from history: directed towards the possibility of establishing a present external, and hence more authentic internal, witness to the events in the present.

High Order Semi-Implicit Asymptotic and Structure Preserving Schemes for Compressible Viscous Flows
Authors: Boscheri Walter
Published: October 2022

In the first part of this talk we introduce a high order pressure-based solver for the solution of the 3D compressible Navier-Stokes system at all Mach numbers. We propose a cell-centered discretization of the governing equations that splits the fluxes into a fast and a slow scale part, that are treated implicitly and explicitly, respectively. A novel semi-implicit discretization is proposed for the kinetic energy as well as the enthalpy fluxes in the energy equation, hence avoiding any need of iterative solvers. The implicit discretization yields an elliptic equation on the pressure that can be solved for both ideal gas and general equation of state (EOS). A nested Newton method is used to solve the mildly nonlinear system for the pressure in case of nonlinear EOS. High order in time is granted by implicit-explicit (IMEX) time stepping, whereas a novel CWENO technique efficiently implemented in a dimension-by-dimension manner is developed for achieving high order in space for the discretization of explicit convective and viscous fluxes. A quadrature-free finite volume solver is then derived for the high order approximation of numerical fluxes. Central schemes with no dissipation of suitable order of accuracy are finally employed for the numerical approximation of the implicit terms. Consequently, the CFL-type stability condition on the maximum admissible time step is based only on the fluid velocity and not on the sound speed, so that the novel schemes work uniformly for all Mach numbers. The schemes are proven to be asymptotic preserving in the low Mach limit of the governing equations.
The second part of the talk is concerned with an implicit discretization of the viscous terms. A variational approach based on the discontinuous Galerkin (DG) spatial discretization is devised in order to obtain a discrete cell-centered Laplace operator. High order corner gradients of the velocity field are employed in 3D to derive the Laplace discretization, and the resulting viscous system is proven to be symmetric and positive definite.
The last part of the talk is devoted to the design of a novel Structure-Preserving Discontinuous Galerkin (SPDG) operator that recovers at the discrete level the algebraic property related to the divergence of the curl of a vector field, which is typically referred to as div-curl problem. A staggered Cartesian grid is adopted in 3D, where the vector field is naturally defined at the corners of the control volume, while its curl is evaluated as a cell-centered quantity. We demonstrate that the novel SPDG schemes are capable of obtaining a zero div-curl identity with machine precision from second up to sixth order accuracy. Finally, we show the applicability of these SPDG methods by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations written in vortex-stream formulation.
Convergence and robustness of the proposed method are assessed through a wide set of benchmark problems involving low and
high Mach number regimes, as well as inviscid and viscous flows.
Infection transmission in the built environment - the interface of biology, fluid dynamics, design and human behaviour
Authors: Noakes Cath
Published: October 2022

COVID-19 has presented us with the most difficult healthcare and societal challenge we have faced in living memory. To understand the mechanisms of transmission we have had to rapidly collect new evidence on the SARS-CoV-2 virus ranging from laboratory data on survival and fluid dynamics studies on droplet dispersion through to epidemiological evidence from outbreaks, contract tracing and cohort studies.

Over this time we have become acutely aware of the role that the environment plays in transmission, and how our interactions in indoor spaces determine the risk of infection. But this is not the first disease to be associated with the built environment. Many other respiratory diseases have a clear association with indoor spaces including tuberculosis and influenza. Pathogens such as pseudomonas, legionella are associated with water systems, and even hospital acquired infections such as MRSA have been linked to dispersion within the environment.

This presentation sets out what we know about transmission of pathogens in the built environment particular focus on the complex interactions between engineering systems, fluid dynamics, microbiology and the behaviour of people that determine the dispersion, transport and survival of pathogens. Engineering and modelling approaches that can be used to understand mechanisms for transmission and implement mitigation strategies are discussed. The talk discusses how research findings may be used to support practice, and where there gaps in knowledge in both understanding of fundamental processes and the real performance of engineering solutions.
