Climate-driven shifts in Southern Ocean primary producers and biogeochemistry in CMIP6 models
Authors: Fisher Ben J. , Poulton Alex J. , Meredith Michael P. , Baldry Kimberlee , Schofield Oscar , Henley Sian F.
Published: February 2025

Abstract. As a net source of nutrients fuelling global primary production, changes in Southern Ocean productivity are expected to influence biological carbon storage across the global ocean. Following a high-emission, low-mitigation pathway (SSP5-8.5), we show that primary productivity in the Antarctic zone of the Southern Ocean is predicted to increase by up to 30 % over the 21st century. The ecophysiological response of marine phytoplankton experiencing climate change will be a key determinant in understanding the impact of Southern Ocean productivity shifts on the carbon cycle. Yet, phytoplankton ecophysiology is poorly represented in Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) climate models, leading to substantial uncertainty in the representation of its role in carbon sequestration. Here we synthesise the existing spatial and temporal projections of Southern Ocean productivity from CMIP6 models, separated by phytoplankton functional type, and identify key processes where greater observational data coverage can help to improve future model performance. We find substantial variability between models in projections of light concentration (>15 000 (µE m−2 s−1)2) across much of the iron- and light-limited Antarctic zone. Projections of iron and light limitation of phytoplankton vary by up to 10 % across latitudinal zones, while the greatest increases in productivity occurs close to the coast. Temperature, pH and nutrients are less spatially variable – projections for 2090–2100 under SSP5-8.5 show zonally averaged changes of +1.6 °C and −0.45 pH units and Si* ([Si(OH)4]–[NO3-]) decreases by 8.5 µmol L−1. Diatoms and picophytoplankton and/or miscellaneous phytoplankton are equally responsible for driving productivity increases across the subantarctic and transitional zones, but picophytoplankton and miscellaneous phytoplankton increase at a greater rate than diatoms in the Antarctic zone. Despite the variability in productivity with different phytoplankton types, we show that the most complex models disagree on the ecological mechanisms behind these productivity changes. We propose that a sampling approach targeting the regions with the greatest rates of climate-driven change in ocean biogeochemistry and community assemblages would help to resolve the empirical principles underlying the phytoplankton community structure in the Southern Ocean.
Green water availability and water-limited crop yields under a changing climate in Ethiopia
Authors: Wakjira Mosisa Tujuba , Peleg Nadav , Six Johan , Molnar Peter
Published: February 2025

Abstract. Climate change is expected to influence future agricultural water availability, posing particular challenges in rainfed agricultural systems. This study aims to analyze the climatology of green water availability and water-limited attainable yield (AY) – the maximum crop yield achieved with available green water under optimal soil nutrient and crop management, considering four major cereal crops (teff, maize, sorghum, and wheat) produced in Ethiopia. An agrohydrological modeling framework was developed to simulate climatic–hydrological–crop interactions. The model was applied to a reference period (1981–2010) and a future period (2020–2099) under scenarios of low, intermediate, and high greenhouse gas emissions with the following aims: (i) evaluate the current green water availability and AY potential, (ii) assess their climate-driven changes, and (iii) analyze the sensitivity of changes in AY to changes in rainfall and atmospheric evaporative demand. With regional variations based on climatic regimes, the main growing season (Meher, May to September) has an average AY of 79 % of a fully irrigated potential yield, with an average soil moisture deficit of 29 % of moisture content at full water-holding capacity. AY of the short growing season (Belg, February to May) is, on average, 37 % of the potential yield, with a soil moisture deficit of 56 %. Under the future climate, Meher is expected to experience small changes in AY the range of ±5 %, with dominantly positive trends in the 2030s and decreases in the 2060s and 2080s, mainly driven by changes in the atmospheric evaporative demand due to rising temperatures. The Belg regions are expected to experience increased AY that is dominantly controlled by increases in rainfall. On the other hand, a substantial yield gap is identified between actual and water-limited yields. This points to the need for combining green water management practices with nutrient and tillage management, plant protection, and cultivar improvement to close the yield gaps and to build up the climate resilience of farmers.

Published: February 2025

Abstract. Background: Elbow native joint septic arthritis (NJSA) is a rare condition, constituting 6 %–9 % of all native septic arthritis cases. It is associated with elevated mortality and morbidity. This study aims to clarify the characteristics, management, and outcomes of elbow NJSA. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed adults diagnosed with elbow NJSA who underwent surgical intervention at Mayo Clinic facilities from January 2012 to December 2021. Diagnosis relied on clinical presentation, synovial fluid white blood cell (WBC) count, and aspiration or operative cultures. Results: Among 557 patients with NJSA during the study time frame, 19 (3.4 %) were found to have elbow NJSA. The median age of these patients was 64 years. Joint aspirations were conducted in 16 cases (84.2 %). The median synovial fluid WBC count was 43 139 cells mm−3. Crystals were observed in three patients (15.8 %). Synovial fluid and operative tissue samples revealed 12.5 % and 20 % positive Gram stains, mostly indicating Gram-positive cocci clusters. Open arthrotomy (72.2 %) was the predominant surgical approach, and three patients (16.7 %) required reoperation within 90 d. The median antimicrobial therapy duration was 30 d (interquartile range: 22–44 d). Non-tuberculosis mycobacterium (NTM) was detected in two patients, with a treatment duration of 274 and 374 d, respectively. Complications included joint contracture and joint resection. Conclusions: Elbow NJSA is an infrequent condition associated with significant complications, such as the necessity for reoperation. Although the synovial fluid WBC count, crystals, and Gram stain positivity were less helpful for diagnosis in this study, positive Gram stain and culture results from operative tissue specimens demonstrated greater effectiveness in diagnosing elbow NJSA.

Published: February 2025

Abstract. Compound flooding, where the combination or successive occurrence of two or more flood drivers leads to a greater impact, can exacerbate the adverse consequences of flooding, particularly in coastal–estuarine regions. This paper reviews the practices and trends in coastal–estuarine compound flood research and synthesizes regional to global findings. A systematic review is employed to construct a literature database of 279 studies relevant to compound flooding in a coastal–estuarine context. This review explores the types of compound flood events and their mechanistic processes, and it synthesizes terminology throughout the literature. Considered in the review are six flood drivers (fluvial, pluvial, coastal, groundwater, damming/dam failure, and tsunami) and five precursor events and environmental conditions (soil moisture, snow, temp/heat, fire, and drought). Furthermore, this review summarizes research methodology and study application trends, as well as considers the influences of climate change and urban environments. Finally, this review highlights knowledge gaps in compound flood research and discusses the implications on future practices. Our five recommendations for compound flood research are (1) adopt consistent terminology and approaches, (2) expand the geographic coverage of research, (3) pursue more inter-comparison projects, (4) develop modelling frameworks that better couple dynamic Earth systems, and (5) design urban and coastal infrastructure with compounding in mind.
Applying Machine Learning in GNSS Computing Cases: Precise Modelling and Predicting for Geodetic Coordinate Time Series and Vehicle Locations
Authors:   , Gao Wenzong
Published: February 2025

This research investigates the use of machine learning (ML) to address computational and modelling challenges in two key Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) applications. In the GNSS coordinate time series analysis, ML methods achieved over a 30% improvement in the positioning accuracy of GNSS station coordinates, reaching millimeter-level prediction precision. In the vehicle navigation scenario, where GNSS is integrated with inertial measurement units, ML techniques enhanced robust location prediction accuracy by fourfold during GNSS signal outages. These results underscore the potential of ML to address GNSS-related challenges, offering significant benefits for both scientific research and practical applications.

Published: February 2025

Mongolia, rich in natural resources, faces a significant challenge in reducing its dependence on a single sector and diversifying its economy. This study, therefore, aims to evaluate the current state of economic diversification and develop targeted strategies. To this end, the value chain of the non-mining processing industry was mapped, key issues at each stage of the chain were identified, and recommendations for sector development were proposed. The development of the processing industry, particularly in non-mining sectors, is critical for economic diversification. Value chain mapping of non-mining production reveals numerous challenges across stages, which must be addressed to foster a competitive processing industry and a diversified economy. Prioritizing the resolution of issues within the livestock sector, as a primary source of raw materials for non-mining processing, is essential. At the same time, implementing strategies to boost competitiveness, such as adopting modern techniques and technologies, providing financial and investment support, and enhancing logistics and infrastructure, will play a vital role in advancing economic diversification.

Ethical Considerations and Applications of AI-Generated Content in Communication and Media Studies in Nigeria
Authors: A. O. Uche, , A. V. Obiora, , F. C. Nwabudike,
Published: February 2025

Artificial intelligence (AI) and automated technologies have made great inroads into tertiary education across the globe including Nigeria. Communication and Media Studies is one of the areas where the impact is already being felt as students rely on automated technologies to generate content for their class assignments and projects. With the unbundling of Mass Communication into several departments across university and polytechnic systems in Nigeria, raising ethically minded individuals and professionals across the different dimensions of communication and media studies has been placed in the front burner. AI use has become increasingly compounded by the non-availability of a regulatory framework in Nigeria's educational system. Employing qualitative literature review, this study leans on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as its theoretical framework to expose the use of AI tools and the ethical implications of their use in media studies in Nigeria. The study recommends a paradigm shift in media literacy to include developing technical skills and technologically innovative tools for the detection of AI-generated content.

Copșa Mică is one of the most famous historically polluted areas in the country.This paper shows the accumulation of heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Zn and Cu) from soil in vetch plants (Vicia spp.) from permanent meadows in Copșa Mică area, Sibiu County.The estimation of the results is based on a set of data (n=14) collected from permanent grasslands located at different distances from the pollution source.The value of the linear correlation coefficient between the total cadmium content and the mobile cadmium content in the soil and in the plant is statistically significantly different from zero indicating a close correlation between the variables. In addition, at total lead content, simple power regressions were found to be the best for estimating the accumulation of these elements in pea plants. And for total zinc and copper, the value of the linear correlation coefficient is not significantly different from zero, indicating that the estimation of zinc and copper accumulation cannot be described by simple power regressions.The results of this study are important for estimating the accumulation of heavy metals in the vegetation of permanent grasslands, which are consumed by livestock in the area.

The Postmodern Autobiography: A Critique of Seeking Recognition from the Self
Authors: Roessiger Ursula
Published: February 2025

Jean-Jacques Rousseau is widely credited as the originator of the modern autobiography. To the contemporary reader, his work in the Confessions is a familiar exer-cise in self-discovery and self-evaluation. Rousseau’s project is a courageous one: to lay bare the inner and often secret history of the self and share this revelation with the world. It is this project that was to change the way the individual communed with themselves and additionally changed the way the individual presented themselves to others. The claim the author wants advance in this article is the following: Our primary mode of communication is deeply autobiographical in nature, and yet, the kind of autobiographical work in which we are engaged has radically evolved such that it no longer accomplishes the task that has traditionally defined it. This article argues that rather than affirming the self via a journey of self-discovery and eventual recognition, autobiographical work now explicitly rejects the possibility of genuine recognition and, as a result, alienates and isolates the individual such that active participation within a community is not possible.

Authors: Rosa Cleide Aparecida Massacani , Ramos Fernanda Peres , Silva Juciani Aparecida Nardis da , Stabelini Noemi Martine Machado
Published: February 2025

Na última década houve um aumento de diagnósticos voltados ao transtorno do espectro autista (TEA). Possivelmente, pelo avanço nas abordagens clínicas de diagnósticos precoces e expansão da caracterização do espectro no DSM-5, além do aumento de sobrevida de prematuros. Entretanto, por tratar-se de um espectro é diversa as características dentre os autistas. Esse cenário traz como desafio a necessidade da elaboração de estratégias pedagógicas e adaptações em sala de aula. E isso se torna mais visível na educação infantil, em que já é possível visualizar esse maior fluxo de crianças diagnosticadas. Contudo, acredita-se que dentre os maiores desafios ainda esteja a falta de capacitação e conhecimento sobre o autismo entre os professores. O que tende a se manifestar por estresse e angústia ao se depararem com tais demandas quando recebem seu ensalamento. Nessa perspectiva, este artigo socializa uma reflexão das Representações Sociais sobre Autismo, observadas em um grupo de professores durante uma ação extensionista voltada a popularização de estratégias direcionadas ao ensino com crianças dentro do espectro. Foi possível, confirmar hipóteses aqui mencionadas, identificando dificuldades encontradas no processo de adaptações pedagógicas e rastreio de preferências de crianças autistas na educação infantil. A coleta se deu em janeiro de 2024 durante uma Formação Continuada. O uso da abordagem metodológica das Representações Sociais contribuiu para a percepção dos aspectos mais ligados ao arquétipo social nesse grupo de professoras da Educação Infantil.

Published: February 2025

Salah satu dampak pandemi Covid 19 adalah banyak masyarakat yang kehilangan pekerjaan dan jatuh miskin, baik yang kena pemutusan hubungan kerja (PHK) atau di rumah kan tanpa upah, maupun pekerja informal yang sulit bekerja karena dampak covid 19. Akibatnya jumlah penduduk yang miskin semakin bertambah. Kemiskinan akan menimbulkan berbagai permasalahan yang kompleks di masyarakat. Banyaknya masyarakat miskin yang menganggur atau hanya memiliki penghasilan yang pas-pasan, akan menyebabkan mereka tidak dapat memenuhi kebutuhan dasar (basic need) keluarganya. sehingga, keluarga miskin menjadi kurang sehat atau sakit-sakitan karena kekurangan gizi dan nutrisi. Keluarga miskin juga akan mengalami kesulitan dalam mengakses pendidikan karena anak-anak mereka ikut mencari nafkah membantu beban keluarga. selanjutnya, banyak anak-anak dari keluarga miskin yang turun atau bahkan hidup di jalanan. Kemiskinan juga mengakibatkan kriminalitas yang terjadi sebagai akibat tidak tercukupinya kebutuhan hidup orang miskin yang memaksa mereka untuk melakukan tindakan kejahatan seperti mencuri, merampok, menipu yang seringkali diikuti dengan tindakan kekerasan. permasalahan lebih jauh yang diakibatkan dari masalah kemiskinan adalah masalah sosial, seperti tidak diterimanya kelompok miskin ini di masyarakat karena dianggap mengganggu dan kurang layak.

Hasil dari penelitian yang dilakukan di BMT Bisma Kelapa Dua Kabupaten Tangerang adalah BMT BISMA dalam implementasinya sudah sesuai dengan Fatwa DSN MUI NO:04/DSN-MUI/IV/2000 tentang murabahah, namun terdapat perbedaan dalam penentuan uang muka. Didalam fatwa DSN MUI diperbolehkan bank meminta uang muka tetapi di BMT BISMA tidak meminta uang muka melainkan hanya meminta agunan surat-surat berharga kendaraan lama yang dimiliki oleh anggota atau surat-surat penting lainnya agar anggota serius dalam membayar angsuran hutangnya, dan agunan tersebut sifatnya hanya sebagai wadiâ€™ah saja, padahal fatwa juga dijelaskan agunan bisa digunakan sebagai jaminan apabila anggota lalai/bermasalah dalam angsurannya.

This study explored factors influencing male engagement in FP in Madina, Ghana, to inform targeted interventions. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Madina, involving 390 married men aged 18-65 with at least one child. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS version 22. Descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression assessed associations between male involvement in FP and various factors. The study revealed that 34.6% of participants discussed FP with their spouses, with most discussions occurring monthly. Current contraceptive use among participants and their spouses was 28.8%, with injectables and pills being the most common methods. Significant factors influencing male involvement included educational level and spousal communication. Higher education levels were associated with increased involvement (AOR = 0.66, 95% CI [0.517, 0.848], p = 0.001). Men who engaged in FP discussions with their spouses had markedly higher involvement (AOR = 8.23, 95% CI [4.703, 14.411], p < 0.001). However, age, religion, ethnicity, and intention to have more children did not significantly impact male involvement. Occupational status also did not show a significant effect on participation. The findings highlight the crucial role of education and spousal communication in enhancing male involvement in FP. To improve FP outcomes, interventions should focus on increasing educational opportunities and fostering open communication between partners. Addressing these areas could significantly boost male participation in FP programs in Ghana. Additionally, investigating the impact of tailored communication strategies and educational approaches on male involvement could provide further insights and enhance family planning practices.

Os Resíduos de Serviços de Saúde (RSS) são provenientes de todas as instituições que prestam serviços de saúde; sendo elas públicas ou privadas. As empresas podem ser funerárias, hospitais, clinicas médicas, clínicas veterinárias, casas de repouso, laboratórios e outras. Existem normas e regras para tratar os resíduos hospitalares. O seu tratamento correto irá causar um impacto menor ao meio ambiente e ao homem. Os impactos podem ser ambientais, que causam alterações no meio ambiente causadas pelas atividades humanas ou naturais, que podem ser negativas ou positivas, permanentes ou temporárias; ou sociais que apresentam efeitos na saúde, na qualidade de vida, na economia, na segurança e no bem-estar da população em geral, em especial em grupos mais vulneráveis como crianças e adolescentes. O Objetivo é apresentar os impactos socioambientais causados pelos resíduos de serviços de saúde, classificar e definir os possíveis tratamentos. O procedimento metodológico adotado na pesquisa é de caráter descritivo, a partir de um levantamento de material bibliográfico, somado a uma análise de dados secundários com abordagem de pesquisa quali-quanti. Constatou-se que o incremento dessa geração de resíduos tem acarretado em implicações para o meio ambiente e para a saúde humana, decorrentes das características tóxicas, intrínsecas desses resíduos, ocasionando problemas de contaminação ambiental, agravos à saúde das populações que vivem no entorno dos locais onde esses resíduos são dispostos. É importante que os funcionários de estabelecimentos de saúde devam receber uma capacitação para que possam manipular de forma correta os resíduos.
