Texts and Ritual: Buddhist Scriptural Tradition of the Stūpa Cult and the Transformation of Stūpa Burial in the Chinese Buddhist Canon
Authors: Sun Wen
Published: December 2019

Chinese translations of Buddhist sūtras and Chinese Buddhist literature demonstrate how stūpas became acknowledged in medieval China and how clerics and laypeople perceived and worshiped them. Early Buddhist sūtras mentioned stūpas, which symbolize the presence of the Buddha and the truth of the dharma. Buddhist canonical texts attach great significance to the stūpa cult, providing instructions regarding who was entitled to have them, what they should look like in connection with the occupants’ Buddhist identities, and how people should worship them. However, the canonical limitations on stūpa burial for ordinary monks and prohibitions of non-Buddhist stūpas changed progressively in medieval China. Stūpas appeared to be erected for ordinary monks and the laity in the Tang dynasty. This paper aims to outline the Buddhist scriptural tradition of the stūpa cult and its changes in the Chinese Buddhist Canon, which serves as the doctrinal basis for understanding the significance of funerary stūpas and the primordial archetype for the formation of a widely accepted Buddhist funeral ritual in Tang China.

Published: December 2019

Automatic and accurate mapping and modeling of underground infrastructure has become indispensable for several important tasks ranging from urban planning and construction to safety and hazard mitigation. However, this offers several technical and operational challenges. The aim of this work is to develop a portable automated mapping solution for the 3D mapping and modeling of underground pipe networks during renovation and installation work when the infrastructure is being laid down in open trenches. The system is used to scan the trench and then the 3D scans obtained from the system are registered together to form a 3D point cloud of the trench containing the pipe network using a modified global ICP (iterative closest point) method. In the 3D point cloud, pipe-like structures are segmented using fuzzy C-means clustering and then modeled using a nested MSAC (M-estimator SAmpling Consensus) algorithm. The proposed method is evaluated on real data pertaining to three different sites, containing several different types of pipes. We report an overall registration error of less than 7 % , an overall segmentation accuracy of 85 % and an overall modeling error of less than 5 % . The evaluated results not only demonstrate the efficacy but also the suitability of the proposed solution.

Published: December 2019

Compared with the previous GPS satellites, the first GPS III satellite adds a new civil signal L1C to the signal components of the L1 frequency in addition to the improvement of positioning accuracy, anti-interference ability, and service life. The selection and combination of signal modulation and multiplexing methods will affect the power ratio and phase relationship in the process of signal transmission. In the distribution of constellation of different modulation modes, the signal amplitudes of different signal constellation points will be affected by the nonlinear amplifiers of satellites. The analysis can assess its impact on navigation performance. The iGMAS monitoring and evaluation center of the 54th Research Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation uses the low-distortion data acquisition and processing platform and refined signal software receiving processing algorithm of the iGMAS monitoring and evaluation center to complete the signal acquisition of the first satellite of GPS III over China, and processes accordingly for its signal modulation mode. Compared with the previous generation GPS of old system signals, it is found that the GPS signal of the new system not only adds the L1C frequency, but also the constant envelope multiplexing mode of the L1 frequency signal, and the power ratio of the internal signal components are also adjusted.
Connecting through Technology: Smartphone Users’ Social Cognitive and Emotional Motivations
Authors: Youn Song-yi
Published: December 2019

Smartphones provide various services not only for social purposes but also for personal desires. This study aims to understand the multi-dimensional motivations of smartphone users. An extended motivational framework was developed using perceived benefits (i.e., expected benefits) and social influence (i.e., social identity achieved from mobile social media) from a social cognitive perspective, which was then expanded to incorporate the second-order construct of emotional attachment (i.e., emotional desires). This study examines the effects of motivations on value perceptions, which consequently explains current smartphone use. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used, and data collected from 738 current smartphone users were analyzed. Regarding the results, expected benefits (i.e., information seeking, entertained activity, self-reactiveness, and immediate access), social influence (i.e., social identity achieved from mobile social media), and emotional desires (i.e., emotional attachment) explained value perceptions (i.e., social, hedonic, and utilitarian values) which positively influence the recent use of smartphones.
Information Asymmetry among Multiple Principals and Inefficiency within the Organization
Authors: Kim Kyung-Hye , Yoo Seung-Weon , Choi Kyong-Soo
Published: December 2019

We develop a theoretical framework to investigate the effect of information asymmetry between the two principals on the common agent’s incentives to provide an effort. We find that the agent’s effort to the poorly-informed (PI) principal is optimal, while his effort to the well-informed (WI) principal is not. Given that the valuable resource, i.e., the agent’s effort, should flow into the person who has higher ability, our results imply that the asymmetric information between two principals generates an efficiency loss within the organization. In addition, we examine whether this inefficiency is attenuated by changes of the relative weight of the agent’s profit set to each principal. The result shows that unless the WI principal solely determines the agent’s profit, the efficiency loss within the organization does not disappear. This finding corroborates that as long as the PI principal exists within the organization, the inefficiency might be inevitable. Our research not only provides new insights to the agency literatures but also offers useful information regarding the efficiency of organizational structure.

Published: December 2019

Malaria accounted for 18% of all deaths in the ethnic communities of Myanmar. In this cross-sectional study, we assessed the extent of and factors associated with receipt of quality malaria treatment services provided by integrated community malaria volunteer (ICMV) under six ethnic health organisations. Data of people with malaria diagnosed by rapid diagnostic tests during 2017–2018 were extracted from the ICMV registers. Documentation of prescribing a complete course of drugs was used to assess quality. Of 2881 people with malaria, village-based ICMV diagnosed and treated 2279 (79%) people. Overall, 2726 (95%) people received correct drugs in the correct dose and adequate duration appropriate to malaria species, age and pregnancy status while 1285 (45%) people received ‘correct and timely (within 24 h of fever)’ treatment. Children under five years, those with severe malaria, mixed infection and falciparum malaria were less likely to receive the correct treatment. When compared to health posts, village-based ICMVs and mobile teams performed better in providing correct treatment and mobile teams in providing ‘correct and timely’ treatment. This calls for ensuring the early presentation of people to health workers within 24 h of undifferentiated fever through health promotion initiatives. Future studies should assess adherence to medication and clinical improvement.
Free Scalar Fields in Finite Volume Are Holographic
Authors: Balázs Csaba
Published: December 2019

This brief note presents a back-of-the-envelope calculation showing that the number of degrees of freedom of a free scalar field in expanding flat space equals the surface area of the Hubble volume in Planck units. The logic of the calculation is the following. The amount of energy in the Hubble volume scales with its linear size, consequently the volume can only contain a finite number of quantized field modes. Since the momentum of the lowest energy mode scales inversely with the linear size of the volume, the maximal number of such modes in the volume scales with its surface area. It is possible to show that when the number of field modes is saturated the modes are confined to the surface of the volume. Gravity only enters this calculation as a regulator, providing a finite volume that contains the field, the entire calculation is done in flat space. While this toy model is bound to be incomplete, it is potentially interesting because it reproduces the defining aspects of holography, and advocates a regularization of the quantum degrees of freedom based on Friedmann’s equation.

Analysis of the Relationship Between Spectral and Color Uncertainty
Authors: Kupko O.
Published: December 2019

An approach is proposed for an approximate estimate of the relation between the uncertainties of spectral and color measurements. The approach is based on replacing the entire diversity of the spectra with simple models: a constant over all wavelengths, a pronounced peak, a sharp decrease and a sharp increase. The Monte-Carlo method was used for calculations. Small distortions were introduced to the model spectra at each wavelength, the standard deviation of these distortions was calculated, after which the chromaticity coordinates were calculated in the system (x, y, Y). The value of Y, as related to light measurements, was not further analyzed. The standard deviation of the distances between the chromaticity coordinates of the initial spectrum and the chromaticity coordinates of the distorted spectra in space (x, y) was used as a measure of the uncertainty of color measurements. The ratio of these standard devia­tions was considered to be a link between the uncertainties of the spectral and color measurements. The influence of the uncertainties of the spectral measurements, the effect of the spectral width of the model spectra in the form of a peak, a sharp decrease and a sharp increase on the axis of the wavelengths were analyzed. The ran­ges of the corresponding values are chosen taking into account the valid documents and the most common spectra. The influence of a stan­dard illuminator selected was considered: all calculations were carried out for both type A and D65 sources. The results of the calculations are provided in the form of graphs, which allow one to approximately determine the required level of accuracy of the spectral equipment before the measurements, in order to provide the necessary uncertainty of chromaticity measurements. The analysis of the results obtained.
Problems of Development and Implementation of Ultrasonic Pulse Method in the Problem of Measurement of Parameters for Determination of Physical-Mechanical Characteristics of Concrete Maintained Buildings and Constructions
Authors: Serikov Ya.
Published: December 2019

The current stage of development of the construction industry of Ukraine and foreign countries contains the direction to extend the life of the operated construction projects. This direction is directly related to the research of physical and mechanical characteristics of concrete as the main building material. A significant number of such studies can be performed using the ultrasonic pulse method. But despite its potential practice shows the insufficient level of use of this method. Thus, this method, in addition to determining the strength of concrete, allows to determine its characteristics such as the level of crack formation, geometric parameters of the planes of stratification in monolithic concrete, and the like. The system analysis of technical characteristics of serial ultrasonic devices that are produced in Ukraine and foreign countries is carried out. The results of the analysis revealed that their technical characteristics allow measurements, mainly to determine the strength, uniformity of concrete. These devices also do not allow to measure vibration, noise and electrical interference, which is typical for production conditions. The conducted researches allowed to reveal the main directions of improvement of serial ultrasonic devices, Metrology. This allows us to solve the problem of expanding the application of this method in the practice of non-destructive testing of physical and mechanical characteristics of concrete operated construction projects.

Published: December 2019

For the accredited calibration laboratories in Ukraine, a second round of inter-laboratory comparisons (ILC) of the results of calibration of electrical resistance measures of direct current was conduc­ted. It is important to conduct such rounds of ILC of results with the involvement of an increasing number of calibration laboratories. This will, accordingly, establish the competence of an increasing number of calibration laboratories, which is quite relevant today. The article presents the results of the first round of ILC of the measures of electric resistance 1 Ohm, 10 Ohm and 100 Ohm on a direct current. As an comparison examples by reference laboratory measurement of electrical resistance of direct current P321 and P331, which were already used in the first round of ILC, were selected. The reference labo­ratory has research the measures of electrical resistance as a means of comparison, defined the reference values of comparison with the calculation of their extended uncertainties according to the mea­surement model. The comparison of the results of measurements obtained during the calibration of the measures of electrical resistance of eight laboratories took place according to the radial scheme from 2018 to 2019. The deviations of the results obtained by each laboratory were determined and their correctness was evaluated taking into account the uncertainty of measurements by one of the criteria for performance statistics for the selected electrical resistance ra­tings. The obtained En values show that for all laboratories participating satisfy the set criterion, except for the result of one laboratory for electrical resistance of 10 Ohms. A comparative analysis of the results of the calibration of resistance measures for laboratories that took part in the first and second rounds was carried out.
La céramique du Hallstatt final au mont Lassois à Vix (Côte-d’Or) : essai de classification
Authors: Durand Jean-Paul
Published: December 2019

La céramique de Vix a fait l’objet de plusieurs publications tant de J. Lagorgette que de R. Joffroy. La présente étude a pour objet d’affiner les classifications déjà effectuées par les précédents chercheurs. Elle porte sur trois types de céramique : la céramique à pâte fine, la céramique à pâte grossière et la céramique cannelée noire d’importation. Les deux premiers s'inscrivent dans le contexte Hallstatt final de la Bourgogne. Le corpus des décors peints révèle une exubérance sans équivalent sur les autres sites. Enfin la classification de la céramique cannelée noire met en évidence la diversité des formes et permet d'établir une datation de la fin du VIe siècle et du début du Ve siècle avant J.-C.

The future indicative in the early modern Cornish of Tregear
Authors: Penglase Charles
Published: December 2019

Le futur de l'indicatif de Tregear au début du Comique Moderne.

La langue cornique, dans le document écrit par Johan Tregear au milieu du XVIe siècle est différente de ce que l'on trouve dans les autres textes importants qui ont survécu. La raison en est qu'il s'agit d'un document en prose, en cornique parlé, par opposition à la langue littéraire des autres sources. Le système verbal est particulièrement différent, avec une série de temps bien plus développée. Ainsi, le temps futur, au mode indicatif, s'exprime dans sept temps différents. Ils assument toute une série de fonctions, et donnent à la langue une grande précision dans l'expression des actions futures.
Le programme d’accès à la royauté dans le monde celtique : pour une anthropologie politique celtique
Authors: García Quintela Marco V.
Published: December 2019

Depuis le Galate Ortiagon, mentionné par Polybe, jusqu’aux traditions insulaires médiévales des Mabinogion et de la Razzia des Boeufs de Cooley, toute une série de héros celtiques atteignent la royauté à partir du moment où ils manifestent leur excellence dans trois activités, ou trois états, organisés selon l’idéologie indo-européenne des trois fonctions. De plus, la conquête de la royauté est continuellement associée à un mariage avec des femmes représentant la souveraineté. En incluant dans cette série deux héros qui ne sont pas celtes, le Romain Sertorius, chef d’une armée de ressortissants hispaniques, et le Lusitanien Viriathe, dont l’appartenance linguistique est discutée, nous essayons de remettre en cause l’approche ethnographique dans l’Antiquité : les notices ethnographiques étaient nécessairement contrastées, mais une analyse comparative pourrait nous permettre d’évaluer leur fiabilité concernant les peuples barbares de l’Antiquité.
Regional and long-distance exchange of an emblematic ‘prestige’ ceramic in the Indo-Iranian Borderlands. Results of Neutron Activation Analysis
Authors: Mutin Benjamin , Minc Leah D. , Lamberg Karlovsky Carl C. , Tosi Maurizio
Published: December 2019

This article investigates the production and distribution of a high quality ceramic typical of the Indo-Iranian Borderlands ca 3000 BC, a ceramic we term here Late Shahi-Tump ware, often included under the generic label Emir Grey ware. Recorded at sites located hundreds of kilometers distant on the Southeastern Iranian Plateau, including Shahr-i Sokhta, Tepe Yahya, and Shahi-Tump, this ceramic is one of the few data points we have to approach the various communities settled in this area during the Early Bronze Age and to clarify the nature of their relationships. Through chemical composition analysis of the most relevant assemblages, using Instrumental Neutron Activation, we hoped to gain insights as to whether and how these ceramics circulated across the Southeastern Iranian Plateau. In the end, this analysis reveals patterns of distribution at the intraregional level in Southwestern Pakistan and a vast sphere of ceramic exchange at the interregional level. These results reinforce the picture of the Indo-Iranian Borderlands as a dynamic place for production and trade of high quality ceramics, a characteristic that continued and intensified during the 3rd millennium BC.
Natufian in the North: The Late Epipaleolithic cultural entity at Dederiyeh Cave, Northwest Syria
Authors: Nishiaki Yoshihiro A. , Yoneda Minoru , Kanjou Youssef , Akazawa Takeru
Published: December 2019

This paper discusses the relationship between Late Epipaleolithic evidence recovered at Dederiyeh Cave in Northwest Syria and the Natufian cultural entity from a cultural-historical perspective. The radiocarbon dates indicate that Dederiyeh occupation dates from at least the late 15th and the 14th millennia BP, with the possibility that it encompasses even earlier or later periods. The present study identifies evidence from the Dederiyeh Cave as a northern variant of the Natufian, which displays similarities and dissimilarities with the Natufian defined in the Southern Levant. The presence of these remains far to the north since the period equivalent to the Early Natufian in the south provides a new dimension to understanding the origin and development of the Natufian entity in a larger geographic context.
Interpersonal violence or hunting accident among the last hunter-gatherers? A flint projectile embedded in a thoracic vertebra from the Early Neolithic site of Tell Mureybet, Syria

Published: December 2019

The site of Tell Mureybet in Syria yielded several human remains, partly dated from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (8300-8200 BC), including a skeleton from an incomplete primary burial (grave 3) excavated in 1974. The study of the bones helps us to reconstruct the plausible cause of death, a thoraco-abdominal fatal wound caused by an arrow shot in the chest. This is clearly evidenced by the presence of a flint arrowhead embedded in the 10th thoracic vertebra. The X-rays, CT-scan and 3D reconstruction of the vertebra and the arrowhead allow two hypotheses regarding this death : a hunting accident or a case of interpersonal violence.

Published: December 2019

La mission de prospection géoarchéologique des «Marges arides de Syrie du Nord » a découvert plus d’un millier de sites qui apportent un éclairage nouveau à la connaissance des régions steppiques pour toutes les périodes de l’histoire de la Syrie et du Proche-Orient. Cet article évoque la période de l’âge du Bronze moyen, qui voit une accentuation du caractère défensif des sites et, surtout, de la protection du territoire. De Salamya à Qinnasrīn, des forteresses, des fortins et des tours, pour la plupart inconnus, s’organisent en un réseau de fortifications hiérarchisées qui longent le relief dominant la steppe. Cet article décrit ce réseau, présente les relevés de chaque type de construction et avance une hypothèse quant à sa fonction première : la protection des terres les plus attractives en terme de mise en valeur agricole.
« Ne me quitte plus des yeux ! » À propos du langage figuratif en Psaume 17,8

Le présent article plaide pour une compréhension littérale de la double expression «(Garde-moi) comme un petit homme, une fille d’oeil » en

Psaume 17,8a. La «fille d’oeil » étant, du point de vue grammatical, une apposition à «petit homme » , elle donne accès à un phénomène bien connu sur le plan historique et culturel : l’image pupilline. Quoiqu’elle soit bien attestée et vérifiable par chacun, cette image pupilline est aujourd’hui presque complètement oubliée, d’autant que le mot «pupille » est utilisé presque exclusivement comme terme anatomique et ophtalmologique et ne l’est plus que rarement dans son sens figuré. La redécouverte de l’image pupilline rend au Psaume 17 un aspect important de son système de référence et lui confère une nuance théologique surprenante : l’orant et le Seigneur se trouvent face à face…
L’étrange catéchisme méthodiste
Authors: Jallais Thérèse-Marie
Published: December 2019

John Wesley (1703-1791) considérait que le catéchisme anglican était tout à fait inadapté aux enfants de sept à quatorze ans. Aussi encourageait-il ses prédicateurs à utiliser son propre texte, Instructions for Children (1745). Cet ouvrage était, en réalité, la traduction des Vrais Principes de l’éducation chrétienne (1690), oeuvre polémique de Pierre Poiret (1646-1719). Les deux textes se démarquent du genre catéchétique mais ils entament un débat original sur ce que Poiret appelait la théologie du désir, qui ne relève pas des théologies du coeur. Avec Instructions for Children, Wesley paraît, officieusement tout du moins, se détourner et du calvinisme et du luthéranisme.
Pratiques du pèlerinage et de la marche. Perspectives phénoménologiques
Authors: Vincent Gilbert
Published: December 2019

La marche est une pratique banale, comparée au pèlerinage. Mais considérer ce dernier comme exceptionnel ne conduit-il pas à lui retirer une grande part de sa signification anthropologique ? L’arrachement du départ comme la hâte de parvenir à destination dramatisent la marche, et nous empêchent de comprendre ce qui se joue dans l’intervalle, dans l’allant d’un corps retrouvé comme sien, dans un espace-temps qui n’est pas réductible à celui de la Chute. Une phénoménologie de la marche permet de redécouvrir l’ordinaire dans l’extraordinaire du pèlerinage, et de comprendre la porosité contemporaine des distinctions entre marcher et partir en pèlerinage. Peut-être nous permet-elle de comprendre en outre que, malgré maintes ressemblances, l’esprit du marcheur diffère notablement de celui du touriste ?

Published: December 2019

Spices and herbs have been used by humanity for thousands of years, so they are very important plants.

In this study, the change of dry matter content and antioxidant compounds of eight spices (basil, thyme, rosemary, mint, parsley, lemongrass, chives, coriander) have been examined the raw plants and in plants preserved by three different drying methods (an oven in 50–60°C; drying at room temperature; lyophilisation between -40 and -50°C, under pressure), because we wanted to see the change of the parameters.

The water content of raw plants was very high, i.e. the dry matter content was very low. By the application of the three drying methods nearly 100% of the water has left the plants, with the exception of the lyophilized basil and rosemary.

Based on the results related to the original material, lyophilized has proved to be the best treatment for the preservation of antioxidant compounds, however air drying also showed high results for some spices.
The examination of flesh firmness in different apple varieties
Authors: Orosz-Tóth Mihály , Kincses Sándorné
Published: December 2019

Of the different physical features of fruits, one important quality feature is flesh hardness. This is an important parameter to be considered when selling fresh apples, for the manufacturing industry and when entering into storage. In our research, we examined 7 apple varieties, in 2016 and 2017, from the establishment of KITE Zrt. in Derecske and the Horticultural Experimentation Site of Pallag (Pallagi Kertészeti Kísérleti Telep). The plantations took place in accordance with intensive apple production. In both years, samples were collected at the time ripening of the given apple variety. Of the examined apple varieties, 5 of them are resistant to scab (Gaia, Isaaq, Modí, Smeralda, Fujion), 1 is not resistant (Golden Reinders) and 1 (Pinova) is moderately susceptible to scab. The scab resistant apple varieties were correlated to the non-resistant Golden Reinders. Flesh firmness was measured with a fruit penetrometer in each of the seven apple varieties. In the first year a two-month storage experiment was carried out, where the flash firmness after harvest, and after one-month and two-month storage was measured. The results were assessed with the help of the IBM SPSS Statistics 20 program. The goal is to compare the apple varieties based on their flesh firmness, in particular with regard to the resistant varieties.

The Isaaq 8.81–8.82 N/cm2 , the Modí 9.18–9.59 N/cm2 and the Fujion 8.66–9.13 N/cm2 , all of which are scab resistant apple varieties, showed a significant initial flesh firmness. During storage, the Pinova apple variety flesh firmness changed the most favourably.

Published: December 2019

An increasing interest has been observed of beetroot leaf as a salad component due to recent studies focusing on their nutritional value. The randomized field experiment was carried out on lowland chernozem soil with 6 varieties, 3 replications and 2 sowing dates. Sampling was performed on 23 of August 2018 at the stage of 30 and 50 days of vegetation, where leaf (30 and 50 days) and root (50 days) were collected. Total dry matter, folic acid and nitrate content were evaluated.

The results of this investigation show that higher total dry matter content was measured in the root (8.47–10.30%) compared to the leaf in both developmental stages (6.47–9.20%). Nevertheless, higher folic acid content was found in the young leaves of 30 and 50 days of development (58.77–113.86 µg 100g-1). Among the examined varieties, Bonel has presented great amount of folic acid not only in the leaves (99.35–113.61 µg 100g-1), but also in the root (89.99 µg 100g-1). Finally, lower nitrate content was found in Libero (316.16 mg kg-1) at 30 days and in Akela (340.41 mg kg-1) at 50 days of development. Thereby, fresh consumption of beetroot leaves are highly recommended.
Rheological evaluation of industrial tomato

Published: December 2019

Today, tomato has the second largest harvesting area globally, and the fourth largest in Hungary. The importance of industrial tomato is growing year by year, and one of the most important tasks is to satisfy the needs of the industry. To meet these needs, the producer has to find the proper genotype, which can achieve up to 100 t ha-1 crop yield. This quality has high importance to be researched.

The experiment was carried out in the Botanical and Exhibition Garden of the University of Debrecen, with 3 examined genotypes. The planting date was 3 of May 2018. The harvesting was two-threaded. On 27 of July the physical parameters – fruit shape index (length/diameter), firmness (kg cm-2), water-soluble dry matter content (Brix%) and weight of the berries (g) – were evaluated. On 15 of August the rheological parameters were examined – the force needed to tear the skin – bioyield point (g) and flesh firmness (g).

The fruit shape index was oval (between 1.19 and 1.24) for all the examined genotypes. The firmness was between 0.92 (UG1122713 F1) and 1.05(Prestomech F1) kg cm-2, which compliance the needs of the industry. The water-soluble dry matter content was suitable, with a value between 4.49 (Prestomech F1) and 4.65 (UG1122713 F1) Brix%. The weight of the berries was between 45.94 (UG989 F1) and 49.37 (Prestomech F1) g per piece.

The bioyield point was between 76.00 (UG1122713 F1) and 85.16 (UG989 F1) g. The flesh firmness was between 33.68 (UG1122713 F1) and 42.81 (UG989 F1) g.

Finally, we can conclude based on the obtained data that the UG989 F1 hybrid was the most proper for the applied cultivation conditions. This genotype can be recommended for the farmers even in extreme weather conditions.

Published: December 2019

Over the last few years, warming of the atmospheric layer near Earth's surface is increasingly experienced and researchers have also established that concentration of numerous greenhouse gases have risen over the past two centuries value. Change is basically a legitimate process - considering atmospheric concentration as well - but the change experienced during the past centuries could not have become this critical without the contribution of human activity. Due to the nature of the greenhouse effect, the result of a very fragile, complex process is experienced currently on Earth, which can be significantly unbalanced even by a slight change. Carbon dioxide emitted from the soil is involved in the global cycle and has an impact on the greenhouse effect. The rise in soil respiration may result in the further intensification of warming. In the scope of the present study, it was examined how carbon dioxide emissions of the soil evolve over a day. The results have been established based on the comparison of the effects of different parts of the day, tillage methods and irrigation.

A gestação é um período muito importante no desenvolvimento fetal no qual é preciso sempre se atentar a qualquer problema que a fêmea ou os conceptos possam desenvolver. Um destes pode ocorrer no final do período gestacional, durante o parto. Algumas cadelas e gatas têm dificuldades para realizar o parto normal, seja por distocia materna ou fetal. A partir disso, o animal pode correr sérios riscos, juntamente com sua prole, que está prestes a nascer. Para evitar a morte dos animais devido a distocia, recomenda-se a realização do acompanhamento gestacional por meio de exames ultrassonográficos e radiográficos. O ultrassom auxilia na predição estimada da data do parto enquanto o raio-x verifica a possibilidade de um parto distócico. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar a acurácia desses exames imagiológicos nos acompanhamentos gestacionais realizados entre anos de 2014 a 2019 no Hospital Veterinário da instituição. Com as devidas análises, visualizou-se que ambos os exames possuem alta taxa de acerto quanto às suas predições. Além disso, também se concluiu a existência de variáveis que afetam essa acurácia. Vale ressaltar que ainda são necessários estudos com uma amostra maior para uma melhor constatação, visando também a verificação das melhores datas para se fazer os exames. Recomenda-se a realização destes estudos com maior especificidade, verificando diferenças entre raças, espécies e tipos de crânio. Este estudo retrospectivo é de suma importância para orientação da conduta dos médicos veterinários quanto à necessidade de realização de acompanhamentos gestacionais, visando a diminuição dos riscos inerentes ao parto.
Vocación docente como respuesta esperanzadora en contextos de vínculos humanos frágiles
Authors: Romero-Ramírez María-de-los-Ángeles
Published: December 2019

La profesión docente exige la vocación, y ambas tienen que ir estrechamente unidas, por cuanto la vocación sin profesión hace frecuentemente ineficaz y perjudicial la acción educativa, al encontrarse el educador entre la ilusión, el deseo de hacer y la ignorancia de no saber-hacer. Se realizó un estudio cualitativo de corte interpretativo sobre la Vocación docente como respuesta esperanzadora en contextos de vínculos humanos frágiles. La formación de ciudadanos autónomos y solidarios en contextos de fragilidad humana es todo un compromiso que se asume con responsabilidad, liderazgo y certeza cuando en la persona del docente hay un ser capaz de entender que su acción en el otro se multiplicará para bien o para mal. Lo sublime de la profesión docente está en la de formar ciudadanos auténticos, libres, fuertes en lo humano, líderes comprometidos, capaces de responder y dar frente a la compleja vida que Dios nos obsequió.

A racionalidade construída da geografia observada em um exercício epistemológico no campo da geografia urbana
Authors: Salvi Rosana Figueiredo , Pereira Cláudio Smalley Soares , Sposito Eliseu Savério
Published: December 2019

A investigação evidencia, por meio de reticulações entre teorias, metodologias e objetivos da Geografia Urbana, encontrados em publicações periódicas de extrato qualis A1, A2 e B1 da área de Geografia da CAPES, compromissos metafísicos, metodológicos, e ontológicos dessa tradição de pesquisa geográfica, e demonstra seus problemas conceituais e empíricos. Considerando que a ciência se faz com base em resolução de problemas, busca-se visualizar alterações no pensamento geográfico considerando em conjunto os objetivos da Geografia Urbana, suas teorias e metodologias, porém, apontando dentre esses elementos qual aparece como um pivô provisório desencadeador de mudanças.Palavras-chave: Epistemologia da Geografia; Geografia Urbana; tradição de pesquisa; reticulação; problemas empíricos; problemas conceituais.
A produção de leite bovino e a atuação dos órgãos públicos agropecuários para a assistência e o auxílio ao setor na microrregião geográfica de Ituiutaba/MG / The production of bovine milk and the action of the agricultural public bodies for assistance and aid to the sector in the geographical micro-region of Ituiutaba/MG

O objetivo desta investigação visa conhecer as ações desenvolvidas pelos órgãos públicos agropecuários da Microrregião Geográfica de Ituiutaba (MRG-017) e a opinião que os gestores destes órgãos possuem em relação a produção de leite bovino e a sua importância no cenário local/regional. Para a elaboração deste artigo foi fundamental a realização da pesquisa bibliográfica sobre a transformação do espaço e as dinâmicas resultantes da reprodução do capital, dando enfoque ao setor produtivo agropecuário e, em especial, a pecuária de leite bovino; posteriormente, coletou-se dados secundários sobre a produção de leite no site do Instituto Brasileiro de Geográfica e Estatística (IBGE); realizou-se trabalhos de campo para a produção de informações por meio da técnica da entrevista com questionário estruturado aos gestores dos órgãos mantenedores e promotores do setor agropecuário destas unidades territoriais. Por fim, analisou-se os dados secundários e as informações obtidas em campo, verificou-se o panorama da produção leiteira, como também, a atuação dos órgãos agropecuários locais para o desenvolvimento deste setor produtivo. Deste modo, foi possível averiguar que existem lacunas que devem ter uma atenção especial para o incremento desta atividade, sobretudo, relacionado ao desenvolvimento de ações para auxiliar o produtor leiteiro, as quais poderão potencializar a bacia leiteira dessa microrregião, gerando maior dinamismo econômico e sustentação da demanda por este produto

Este artigo discorrerá sobre o projeto realizado na matéria de Projeto de Integração disciplinar I do terceiro ano do curso de Geografia da FCT- UNESP. Procuramos aqui estabelecer a relação entre a destinação dos resíduos sólidos no município de Presidente Prudente com a Geografia Urbana e a Geomorfologia primordialmente, no entanto, não abandonando as demais áreas da Geografia que são necessários para entender a questão, como a Geografia da saúde, através do entendimento do nexo entre o ambiente e as proliferação de vetores de patógenos, e a Geografia cultural através da cultura do consumo. Apresentaremos aqui uma contextualização histórica para melhor entendimento do surgimento do aterro de Presidente Prudente estabelecendo uma análise da paisagem do antigo lixão até se tornar o aterro controlado que é hoje, assim como suas consequências diretas e indiretas para a saúde pública. O projeto se estende também a transposição didática dessas informações aos alunos do 2º ano do ensino médio da Escola Estadual Anna Antônio em Presidente Prudente, realizando um experimento em aula a respeito da limpeza da água através de “eletrofloculação”, como forma de interação e conscientização ambiental.
