A first comprehensive inventory of Ascalaphidae, Palparidae, and Myrmeleontidae (Insecta: Neuroptera) of Northeastern Nigeria with description of two new species and an overview of genus Bankisus Navás
Authors: Prost André , Popov Alexi
Published: November 2021

Investigation of a large collection of Neuroptera from Northeastern Nigeria stored untouched in alcohol for four decades in the National Museum of Natural History, Sofia, provided the opportunity to examine unpublished specimens and conduct a thorough review of published literature, establishing the first comprehensive inventory of Ascalaphidae, Palparidae, and Myrmeleontidae of Northeastern Nigeria to date. Specimens had been collected between 1976 and 1978 in Northeastern Nigeria, mostly in Jos City and Plateau State. Five species of Ascalaphidae, four of Palparidae, and 26 of Myrmeleontidae were identified. Bankisus beroni sp. n. and Creoleon nigrithorax sp. n. are described. Gymnoleon gaillardi is not considered a synonym of Gymnoleon exilis and a new synonymy is established: Gymnoleon externus (Navás, 1911) (= Gymnoleon gaillardi Navás, 1912, syn. n.). An examination of unpublished specimens in museum collections and an exhaustive literature review were conducted in order to draw up a comprehensive inventory of the fauna of Northeastern Nigeria, which to date comprises 11 species of Ascalaphidae, 12 species of Palparidae, and 34 species of Myrmeleontidae, of which one species of Ascalaphidae, two species of Palparidae, and 16 species of Myrmeleontidae, as well as the genera Brevibarbis, Bankisus, and Capicua, had not been reported to occur in Nigeria. The chorological information on the genus Bankisus is reviewed, the ranges of the species are critically discussed and corrected, and all known localities are indicated on a map. Bankisus oculatus is reported for the first time from the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The first recording of Centroclisis lineatipennis in West Africa is reported. Palpares cataractae and Palpares radiatus are deleted from the list of Nigerian fauna. With these new records, the known ranges of eight species are extended by more than 1400 km. In the process of assessing the geographical distribution of species present in Northeastern Nigeria, six species, as well as the genera Myrmecaelurus and Cueta and the tribe Nesoleontini, are reported for the first time from Burkina Faso.

Spatial Causalities in Geographies of Scientific Knowledge
Authors:   University of Isfahan, Iran, Shoorcheh Mahmood
Published: November 2021

This paper tries to discuss the efforts of geographers of science to put science in its geographical contexts. Geographers of science have studied the socio-spatial settings in which scientific knowledge has been generated, displayed, and legitimated. For them, science is socially constructed in “spatialities” and “temporalities”. The major question of this study is how “spatialities” construct scientific knowledge via its “causalities”. The fundamental idea is that geography of science does not only deal with places, locations, and regions where scientific knowledge is produced or distributed; it also deals with a variety set of spatial causalities through which scientific knowledge can be formed and transformed. This means that the development of innovative knowledge and ideas take place not only within a spatial context but also occur due to the spatial causalities associated with the myriad interlinkages and interdependencies among places. These imperatives of spatial significance operate across many spatial scales from body/local to the planet/global. Hence, in our increasingly globalized world, we must seek knowledge in spatial encounters and in-between places, not merely within spaces and places. In addition, when we are living in an unprecedented transformation period which transfers the terrestrial spatial causalities to the virtual spatial causalities via intelligent and digital technologies, we should be more aware of the difference that new algorithms make in our daily life through hacking virtual spatial causalities.

The paper reasons about value consciousness, which plays a special role in the study and development of geographical space. The understanding of geographical space is based on multidimensional analytical features of this subject category. Geographical space is represented as an area of mutual penetration of a unique natural shell and an original anthroposphere. In this fusion of nature and society, the predominant role of humans in the surrounding reality is highlighted. It is suggested that the urgent task of geographical knowledge is the need to unite knowledge about people, nature and society in the conditions of spatial interaction. It is emphasized that the main vector of modern geographical research is the conceptual progress from "Earth" to "Person" as the only reliable wealth that the world possesses. The dominant role of a person in the surrounding reality is determined by the moral consciousness and reasonable practice of an individual in specific spatial circumstances. The authors illustrate that in modern conditions it is impossible to do this without appealing to humanitarian values, which become the fundamental basis of the entire world "Dasein” (by M. Heidegger) as an existing being.

Published: November 2021

Após um período com foco em medidas de estabilidade macroeconômica, as políticas industriais foram retomadas pelo Brasil a partir de 2004, todavia com conflitos sobre as formas que deveriam assumir. Existem teorias que as defendem apenas para sanar falhas de mercado, enquanto outras as entendem como motor incentivador da economia. Ambas precisam ir ao encontro dos desafios enfrentados pela indústria do Brasil. Por isso, o objetivo deste artigo foi avaliar se políticas industriais criadas pelo Brasil de 2004 a 2018 estavam alinhadas com os desafios enfrentados pelo setor industrial. O período analisado retrata o ciclo de retomada das políticas industriais, a começar pela Política Industrial, Tecnológica e de Comércio Exterior (PITCE), em 2004, terminando com o Rota 2030, no ano de 2018. O estudo utilizou a análise multivariada de clusters (aglomerados) e crosstabs (cruzamento de tabelas) para 19 setores industriais, os quais foram agrupados no primeiro ano das políticas industriais de acordo com o desempenho observado em seus fatores econômicos, tais como faturamento, exportação e inovações, entre outros. Foi verificado o grupo mais representativo e ainda avaliados os desafios enfrentados por ele, bem como os objetivos propostos pelas políticas industriais. Os resultados mostraram que os problemas da indústria nacional foram considerados por boa parte das políticas criadas no período. Acredita-se que esta pesquisa amplia a visão sobre políticas industriais, estruturação de variáveis denominadas fatores econômicos, com potencial de mensurar a conjuntura industrial do país e no direcionamento para construção de políticas para o setor industrial.

As urgências e emergências acaba sendo uma das portas de entradas dos usuários no SUS, o que na maioria das vezes, resulta em superlotação devido a excessiva demanda. O estudo trata-se de revisão integrativa com o objetivo de conhecer e avaliar a implantação da classificação de risco no serviço de urgência e emergência. A crescente demanda por serviços nesta área nos últimos anos, devida ao crescimento do número de acidentes e da violência urbana e a insuficiência estruturação da rede são fatores que têm contribuído decisivamente para a sobrecarga de serviços de urgência e emergência disponibilizados para o atendimento da população. Em 2004 o Ministério da Saúde fez uma reestruturação na urgência e emergência, implementando o acolhimento com classificação de risco que objetiva a reorganização a atenção, tendo em vista o acolhimento ao usuário e a priorização do atendimento, de acordo com a gravidade do risco ou quadro apresentado, para então começar a sistematização do atendimento para que seja com mais agilidade, segurança e humanização. Esta é uma pesquisa de revisão integrativa que é um método que reúne os resultados obtidos sobre um mesmo assunto, e tem por finalidade sintetizar e analisar os dados para desenvolver uma explicação mais abrangente de um assunto em específico.
EL CONSENTIMIENTO DEL INTERESADO ¿UNA HERRAMIENTA ADECUADA?
Authors: Landa Reza Idoia
Published: November 2021

Desde su incepción, el consentimiento del interesado ha constituido el núcleo del sistema europeo de protección de datos. Aunque pueda verse como una base legitimadora más del ordenamiento, lo ciertos es que, hasta la fecha, las normas declaran que el consentimiento del interesado constituye la principal herramienta que legitima el tratamiento de los datos personales. Mediante el mismo, se ha querido asegurar que sea la persona, desde su libertad individual, la que decida cómo, cuándo y para qué se tratarán sus datos personales. En este sentido, es importante recordar que el consentimiento del interesado ha sido creado para proporcionar a cada persona un control sobre su información personal. Con todo, el valor del consentimiento como instrumento de control y de protección del interesado ha sido criticado debido a que el desarrollo que se ha producido en los últimos años ha banalizado la prestación de dicho consentimiento a través de formas más blandas que llevan a prestarlo casi por defecto. Por ello, en los tiempos en los cuales la obtención y análisis masivo de datos es una práctica habitual, cabe preguntarse si realmente el consentimiento sigue siendo una herramienta adecuada para proteger la autodeterminación informática del sujeto en un mundo dominado por las TIC o por el contrario debemos considerarla una herramienta obsoleta que es preciso sustituir o al menos complementar.
Global simulations of monoterpene-derived peroxy radical fates and the distributions of highly oxygenated organic molecules (HOM) and accretion products

Published: November 2021

Abstract. We evaluate monoterpene-derived peroxy radical (MT-RO2) unimolecular autoxidation and self and cross reactions with other RO2 in the GEOS-Chem global chemical transport model. Formation of associated highly oxygenated organic molecule (HOM) and accretion products are tracked in competition with other bimolecular reactions. Autoxidation is the dominant fate up to 6–8 km for first-generation MT-RO2 which can undergo unimolecular H-shifts. Reaction with NO can be a more common fate for H-shift rate constants < 0.1 s−1 or at altitudes higher than 8 km due to the imposed Arrhenius temperature dependence of unimolecular H-shifts. For MT-derived HOM-RO2, generated by multi-step autoxidation of first-generation MT-RO2, reaction with other RO2 is predicted to be the major fate throughout most of the boreal and tropical forested regions, while reaction with NO dominates in temperate and subtropical forests of the Northern Hemisphere. The newly added reactions result in ~4 % global average decrease of HO2 and RO2 mainly due to faster self-/cross-reactions of MT-RO2, but the impact upon HO2/OH/NOx abundances is only important in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) over portions of tropical forests. Within the bounds of formation kinetics and HOM photochemical lifetime constraints from laboratory studies, predicted HOM concentrations in MT-rich regions and seasons reach 10 % or even exceed total organic aerosol as predicted by the standard GEOS-Chem model. Comparisons to observations reveal large uncertainties remain for key reaction parameters and processes, especially the photochemical lifetime of HOM and associated accretion products. Using the highest reported yields and H-shift rate constants of MT-RO2 that undergo autoxidation, HOM concentrations tend to exceed the limited set of observations. Similarly, we infer that RO2 cross reactions rate constants near the gas-kinetic limit with accretion product branching greater than ~0.25 are inconsistent with total organic aerosol unless there is rapid decomposition of accretion products, the accretion products have saturation vapor concentrations > > 1 μg m−3, or modeled MT emission rates are overestimated. This work suggests further observations and laboratory studies related to MT-RO2 derived HOM and gas-phase accretion product formation kinetics, and especially their atmospheric fate, such as gas-particle partitioning, multi-phase chemistry, and net SOA formation, are needed.
The global and multi-annual MUSICA IASI {H2O, δD} pair dataset

Published: November 2021

Abstract. We present a global and multi-annual space-borne dataset of tropospheric {H2O, δD} pairs that is based on radiance
measurements from the nadir thermal infrared sensor IASI (Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer) on board the Metop satellites of EUMETSAT
(European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites). This dataset is an a posteriori processed extension of the MUSICA
(MUlti-platform remote Sensing of Isotopologues for investigating the Cycle of Atmospheric water) IASI full product dataset as presented in
Schneider et al. (2021b). From the independently retrieved H2O and δD proxy states, their a priori settings and constraints,
and their error covariances provided by the IASI full product dataset, we generate an optimal estimation product for pairs of H2O and
δD. Here, this standard MUSICA method for deriving {H2O, δD} pairs is extended using an a posteriori
reduction of the constraints for improving the retrieval sensitivity at dry conditions. By applying this improved water isotopologue post-processing for all cloud-free MUSICA IASI retrievals, this yields a {H2O,
δD} pair dataset for the whole period from October 2014 to December 2020 with global coverage twice per day (local morning and
evening overpass times). In total, the dataset covers more than 1500 million individually processed observations. The retrievals are most sensitive
to variations in {H2O, δD} pairs within the free troposphere, with up to 30 % of all retrievals containing vertical
profile information in the {H2O, δD} pair product. After applying appropriate quality filters, the largest number of
reliable pair data arises for tropical and subtropical summer regions, but higher latitudes also show a considerable amount of reliable
data. Exemplary time series over the tropical Atlantic and West Africa are chosen to illustrate the potential of the MUSICA IASI {H2O,
δD} pair data for atmospheric moisture pathway studies. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the application of this rather
comprehensive MUSICA IASI {H2O, δD} pair dataset (referred to as Level-2), we additionally provide the data in a
re-gridded and simplified format (Level-3) with focus on the quality-filtered {H2O, δD} pairs in the free troposphere. A
technical documentation for guiding the use of both datasets is attached as the Supplement. Finally, the Level-2 dataset is referenced with the DOI
https://doi.org/10.35097/415 (Diekmann et al., 2021a) and the Level-3 dataset with DOI https://doi.org/10.35097/495 (Diekmann et al., 2021b).
Improving the joint estimation of CO2 and surface carbon fluxes using a Constrained Ensemble Kalman Filter in COLA (v1.0)

Published: November 2021

Abstract. Atmospheric inversion of carbon dioxide (CO2) measurements to understand carbon sources and sinks has made great progress over the last two decades. However, most of the studies, including four-dimension variational (4D-Var), Ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF), and Bayesian synthesis approaches, obtains directly only fluxes while CO2 concentration is derived with the forward model as post-analysis. Kang et al. (2012) used the Local Ensemble Transform Kalman Filter (LETKF) that updates the CO2, surface carbon fluxes (SCF), and meteorology field simultaneously. Following this track, a system with a short assimilation window and a long observation window was developed (Liu et al., 2019). However, this system faces the challenge of maintaining global carbon mass. To overcome this shortcoming, here we introduce a Constrained Ensemble Kalman Filter (CEnKF) approach to ensure the conservation of global CO2 mass. After a standard LETKF procedure, an additional assimilation process is applied to adjust CO2 at each model grid point and to ensure the consistency between the analysis and the first guess of global CO2 mass. In the context of observing system simulation experiments (OSSEs), we show that the CEnKF can significantly reduce the annual global SCF bias from ~0.2 gigaton to less than 0.06 gigaton by comparing between experiments with and without it. Moreover, the annual bias over most continental regions is also reduced. At the seasonal scale, the improved system reduced the flux root-mean-square error from priori to analysis by 48–90 %, depending on the continental region. Moreover, the 2015–2016 El Nino impact is well captured with anomalies mainly in the tropics.
Changes in glacial lakes in the Poiqu River basin in the central Himalayas

Published: November 2021

Abstract. The Poiqu River basin is an area of concentration for glaciers and glacial lakes in the central Himalayas, where 147 glacial lakes were identified,
based on perennial remote sensing images, with lake area ranging from 0.0002 to 5.5 km2 – a total of 19.89 km2. Since 2004, the retreat rate of glacier has reached as high as 5.0 km2 a−1, while the growth rate of glacial lake has reached 0.24 km2 a−1. We take five typical lakes as our case study and find that the retreat of glacier area reaches 31.2 %, while the glacial lake area has expanded by 166 %. Moreover, we reconstruct the topography of the lake basin to calculate the water capacity and propose a water balance equation (WBE) to explore the lake evolution. By applying the WBE to the five lakes, we calculate the water supplies of the last few years and compare this with the results of field surveys, which are in agreement, within an error of only 1.86 % on average. The WBE also reveals that the water supplies to the lake depend strongly on the altitude. Lakes at low altitudes are supplied by glacier melting, and lakes at high altitudes are supplied by snowmelts. The WBE is not only applicable for predicting future changes in glacial lakes under climate warming conditions but is also useful for assessing water resources from rivers in the central Himalayas.
Investigating causal factors of shallow landslides in grassland regions of Switzerland
Authors: Zweifel Lauren , Samarin Maxim , Meusburger Katrin , Alewell Christine
Published: November 2021

Abstract. Mountainous grassland slopes can be severely affected by soil erosion, among
which shallow landslides are a crucial process, indicating instability of
slopes. We determine the locations of shallow landslides across different
sites to better understand regional differences and to identify their
triggering causal factors. Ten sites across Switzerland located in the Alps
(eight sites), in foothill regions (one site) and the Jura Mountains (one site) were
selected for statistical evaluations. For the shallow-landslide inventory, we
used aerial images (0.25 m) with a deep learning approach (U-Net) to map the
locations of eroded sites. We used logistic regression with a group lasso
variable selection method to identify important explanatory variables for
predicting the mapped shallow landslides. The set of variables consists of
traditional susceptibility modelling factors and climate-related factors to
represent local as well as cross-regional conditions. This set of explanatory
variables (predictors) are used to develop individual-site models (local
evaluation) as well as an all-in-one model (cross-regional evaluation) using
all shallow-landslide points simultaneously. While the local conditions of the
10 sites lead to different variable selections, consistently slope and aspect
were selected as the essential explanatory variables of shallow-landslide
susceptibility. Accuracy scores range between 70.2 % and 79.8 % for individual
site models. The all-in-one model confirms these findings by selecting slope,
aspect and roughness as the most important explanatory variables
(accuracy = 72.3 %). Our findings suggest that traditional susceptibility
variables describing geomorphological and geological conditions yield
satisfactory results for all tested regions. However, for two sites with lower
model accuracy, important processes may be under-represented with the
available explanatory variables. The regression models for sites with an
east–west-oriented valley axis performed slightly better than models for
north–south-oriented valleys, which may be due to the influence of exposition-related processes. Additionally, model performance is higher for alpine sites,
suggesting that core explanatory variables are understood for these areas.
Embodied Aging: Everyday body practices and Later Life Identities among the South Asian Indian Gujarati Diaspora in Canada
Authors: Devi Anusmita , Hurd Laura , Samanta Tannistha
Published: November 2021

This study explores how South Asian Indian Gujarati older adults in Canada (Greater Vancouver area) strive to maintain personal continuity, citizenship, and selfhood through everyday body management practices (exercise/yoga, medication/health supplements, skin, and hair care routines) and cultural markers such as food, sartorial choices, and community engagement. This examination, we contend, is noteworthy against the backdrop of contemporary North American academic and popular discourses of a burgeoning consumerist movement around the medicalization of bodies and anti-aging technologies. Drawing on in-depth qualitative interviews of 26 older adults, we discuss how growing old in the diaspora is marked with moral ambivalence between ‘successful aging’ and ‘aging gracefully.’ Based on an inductive thematic analysis, we identify four major themes in how the older diaspora negotiate aging and reorganise their lives through changing social relations and shifting cultural institutions. The first theme is the growing salience of both bodily and social changes in conceptualizing “old age,” and how the experiences of aging vary by gender. Specifically, while most of the female participants visualized old age in terms of a loss of physical functionality, the male participants described agedness in terms of a loss of economic and social worth. The second major theme encapsulates the acceptable coping strategies for dealing with bodily changes and the associated reconfigurations of social roles. While a fit body and functionality were regarded as foundational traits for aging well by all participants, corrective measures or anti-aging products were not espoused as the most culturally appropriate “Indian” way of growing old. The third theme highlights the apprehensions regarding growing old in a foreign country, including a foreboding anxiety of dependence and frailty in the absence of traditional familial care networks. The final theme, explores how for most participants, the notion of home evoked ambivalence in constructing their sense of belonging and identity, often expressed through everyday practices and memory-keeping. Taken together, we ultimately show how age and embodiment are inextricably linked in the experience of growing old in the diaspora.
Education of values: Marketizing the aging population in urban China
Authors: Wang Yifan
Published: November 2021

In this article, I examine some of the marketing and sales strategies at Gardenview, a newly established eldercare company that ran a few residential eldercare facilities in Nanjing, China. There, like elsewhere in urban China, the projected aging demography was mobilized to push for an industrialization (chanyehua)—marketization and professionalization—of eldercare, transforming ideas and experience of eldercare by putting forward a new set of knowledge of aging. To this end, I first ground the rising eldercare industry in the transitioning paradigm of conceptualizing China’s population from population control to demographic aging. Then I explore ethnographically how Gardenview participated in the eldercare industry in a rapidly aging China. In particular, I look at the floorplans and the marketing stories as devices of the education of values—as prices, the good and desirable, and differentiators—to understand the social, economic, and ethical dynamics instigated by a transitioning demography. These values, as I show, are crucial in linking everyday life and choices with the paradigmatic shift of China’s population. Finally, I discuss how understanding the very processes of marketing and sales as an education of values could shed further light on what anthropologist Michael Fischer calls “literacies of the future” as a socially and economically elaborated and contested world of an aging China.

A capela de Nossa Senhora da Purificação foi edificada nos primeiros anos de exploração das minas do Serro do Frio, entre 1702 e 1713. Sua história pode ser contada em torno do conceito de gesto pedagógico colonial, ou seja, o que esses homens e mulheres que a construíram e a mantiveram, organizados em irmandades leigas queriam ensinar e aprender, em constante processo de criação e recriação de suas sociabilidades. Problematizamos a permanência da capela no centro da Vila do Príncipe e como sua presença no centro comercial do século XIX e a questão dos sepultamentos reverberava conflitos sociais ligados à economia da escravidão. Usando a metodologia de pesquisa bibliográfica, narramos o cotidiano desses personagens em torno da abordagem microhistórica e da história cultural. O resultado do estudo se apresenta à medida em que se desenvolve a narrativa e aponta para a disputa de espaço urbano ao final do século XIX e primeiros anos do século XX, quando a capela foi demolida aparentemente sem questionamentos da elite serrana.
Realidade e imaginário nas imagens de Chernobyl
Authors: Azevedo Dunya
Published: November 2021

O presente artigo propõe uma reflexão sobre a fotografia contemporânea voltada para os vestígios do acontecimento histórico, e procura compreender como a memória do trauma se inscreve nas imagens. Para isso, tomarei como corpus empírico algumas imagens do projeto La Zone, do fotógrafo francês Guillaume Herbaut. São imagens feitas na zona radioativa de Chernobyl, 24 anos após o acidente nuclear de 1986, na Ucrânia. A partir de um recorte seleciono algumas imagens do projeto, em que o fotógrafo joga com as ambiguidades e lacunas das imagens. Trata-se de imagens que apontam para a simultaneidade entre passado e presente e abrem espaço para o imaginário e a ficcionalização.

Published: November 2021

O trabalho aborda aspectos de minha vida, enquanto indígena e Técnico de Educação Escolar Indígena, na Diretoria Regional de Educação – Miracema do Tocantins, a partir de minhas experiências particulares. Trago, também, breve descrição do processo da tradição cultural de socialização/educação dos jovens Wapte e do Pátio Warã. O pátio é uma espécie de fórum, uma instituição educativa oral, conduzido principalmente pelos sábios anciãos, responsáveis pelo processo educativo dos jovens. Concluo que há uma necessidade de diálogo no departamento da referida instituição com o sistema da política educacional tradicional, a escola e as comunidades indígenas.
Relato de experiências com o Projeto Palavra pulsante: tecendo aprendizagens por meio da Literatura Indígena
Authors: Freitas Marcilea de
Published: November 2021

A manutenção do estigma de que as culturas indígenas são ágrafas e a reprodução de estereótipos têm representado obstáculos ao reconhecimento de seus saberes e da diversidade cultural brasileira. A partir dessa percepção e tendo em vista a necessidade de intervenções quanto ao currículo da Educação Básica de forma a contribuir para a abertura real do debate sobre a temática étnica na escola e a partir dela é que foi proposto o projeto “Palavra Pulsante”, que busca trazer os textos literários de autoria indígena para as aulas de Língua e Literatura, a fim de que se possa de fato trabalhar com história e cultura indígena resgatando suas contribuições nas áreas social, econômica e política pertinentes à história e formação do povo brasileiro.
Diálogo intercultural no agreste e sertão pernambucanos: o Povo Pankará e os/ãs Artesãos/ãs do Alto do Moura
Authors: Silva Jaqueline Barbosa da , Silva Everaldo Fernandes da , Lopes Maria Luciete , Silva William Francisco da
Published: November 2021

O presente trabalho enseja evidenciar um diálogo intercultural entre as cosmovisões dos/as artesãos/ãs do Alto do Moura - Caruaru/PE e do Povo Pankará, cuja percepção é resultado dos desdobramentos do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Iniciação à Docência para a Diversidade (PIBID Diversidade), do projeto de pesquisa Professores Indígenas de Pernambuco: formação, pesquisa e prática pedagógica, das rodas de diálogo com os referidos ceramistas e, teoricamente, das lentes dos estudos pós-coloniais (ESCOBAR, 2003; MIGNOLO, 2007; MALDONADO-TORRES, 2007). A dinâmica do PIBID Diversidade, do Campus Agreste da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco (UFPE), tem assento, neste trabalho, nas práticas formativa e educativa do Povo Pankará e dos/as artesãos/ãs do Alto do Moura. Este caminho foi, paritariamente, construído em articulação com a Comissão dos Professores Indígenas de Pernambuco (COPIPE), os/as artesãos/ãs do Alto do Moura, os/as participantes indígenas do PIBID Diversidade e colaboradores/as vinculados à universidade. As estratégias metodológicas utilizadas filiam-se às perspectivas do movimento recursivo, rompendo com a linearidade colonialista das ações societárias que privilegiam os saberes escolares urbanocêntricos e governamentais. O acesso às cosmovisões do Povo Pankará e os contatos intersubjetivos dos/as artesãos/ãs do Alto do Moura revelaram as práticas educativas e a produção do conhecimento popular promovendo um olhar crítico-propositivo no e do grupo dos/as participantes indígenas e artesãos/ãs. Em ambos contextos, dos saberes indígenas e artesãos/ãs, as cosmovisões e formações distintas complementam-se, com assento, seja na valorização e respeito aos saberes tradicionais, seja, na oralidade e no cotidiano, cujas percepções e juízos de valor são herdados e transmitidos individual e coletivamente.

Constatou-se que os professores tiveram boas experiências em relação ao estágio durante a sua graduação e apresentam uma avaliação consensual positiva sobre a sua importância na formação docente. Também alertaram não ter uma capacitação específica para atuar nessa função, mas destacam as suas experiências profissionais como elementos que os habilitem a exercerem o papel de professor supervisor.
Grupos de pesquisa em educação física escolar e o periodismo científico: o modus operandi e os interesses dos líderes
Authors: Frasson Jéssica , Schultz Wittizorecki Elisandro
Published: November 2021

O presente texto tem como objetivo apresentar a partir do modus operandi dos líderes dos grupos de pesquisa, os interesses que orientam a veiculação das produções aos periódicos científicos. O desenho metodológico estrutura-se a partir da pesquisa qualitativa e apresenta a prosopografia como procedimento metodológico, vinculada a entrevistas semiestruturadas e à análise de documentos como ferramentas do processo de obtenção das informações. Foi possível considerar que a veiculação da produção aos periódicos indica não apenas as estratégias e as ações que são organizadas pelos agentes para operarem cientificamente mas, sobretudo, que os interesses são político-epistemológicos e estão encharcados de intencionalidades, portanto, de compromisso com um determinado fazer científico.
Миф и география: география и история в античном мифе
Authors: Писаревский Николай Петрович
Published: November 2021

Проблема соотношения мифа с географией вообще и исторической географией в частности принадлежит к числу самых актуальных проблем науки, особенно в последнее время. Наполнена ли отображѐнная в мифах история действительными или мнимыми реалиями, насколько подвержены деформации, отложившиеся в мифах пространственно-временные представления и насколько реальны маршруты странствий, отображающих этот процесс, греческих богов и героев (Диониса, Геракла, Кадма, Ио, аргонавтов и др.). Переосмысление важнейших методологических и конкретно-научных подходов к изучению мифа с учѐтом социальной психологии и социологии знания, результатов исследования мировоззренческих концептов отдельных этносов вообще и древних греков в частности, места и значения географических представлений в мифопоэтическом сознании не оставляют сомнений в правомерности распространения и наложения отложившихся в мифах свидетельств о контактах греческих богов и героев с негреческими племенами на процесс формирования в общественном сознании древних греков представлений о собственной идентичности. Отображѐнные в закодированном виде, они передавали изложение прошлой истории через носящие характер архетипа полузабытые конкретные историко-географические реалии. Они сохранялись и поддерживались, наполнялись новыми реалиями по мере расширения кругозора населения полисов, оставаясь составной частью и располагаясь либо в центре, либо на периферии содержания соответствующих религиозных обрядов и ритуалов.
Сагаласс – «Первый город Писидии»: к истории регионального центра римской Малой Азии
Authors: Болгов Николай Николаевич , Елисеева Анастасия Юрьевна
Published: November 2021

В работе освещается история и современное состояние изучения малоазийского города Сагаласс как регионального центра в Писидии – горной области в южной части Малой Азии. Выделяются исторические этапы жизни города – доантичный, эллинистический, римский. Специально анализируется римский период истории города, преимущественно на основании материальной культуры, в силу характера сохранившихся памятников. Подчеркивается важный характер комплексного исследования города, осуществляемого бельгийской командой ученых из Лёвенского университета. Дается краткий обзор научной библиографии по истории Сагаласса, насчитывающий на данный момент более 120 наименований и 7 специальных сборников материалов «Сагаласс» (с 1993 г.). Делается вывод о том, что Сагаласс – один из наиболее изученных сегодня городов юга Малой Азии. Вместе с тем регионы античной Малой Азии нуждаются в изучении в отечественной историографии.

The concentration and distribution of selected eight heavy metals in five stations from lower stretches of the Hooghly estuary were studied to ascertain the level of anthropogenic contaminant loading resulting from the development of the region. Atomic absorption spectroscopy showed that the mean concentration of Fe, Zn, Cu, Ni, Pb, Cr, Cd and As (mg kg-1, dry weight,) ranged from 29950.70 – 39567.94, 61.45 – 98.83, 40.65 – 54.46, 25.44 – 42.78, 36.93 – 48.56, 29.07 – 46.35, BDL – 3.48 and 1.18 – 6.44 respectively. Pollution load index (PLI) and Index of geoaccumulation (Igeo) revealed overall low values but the enrichment factors (EFs) for Cd was typically high for three of the stations. Calculations based on Effect Range Low (ERL) and Threshold Effect Level (TEL) showed that the mean concentration of Cu, Ni and Cd and to some extent Pb exceeded these levels, indicating that there is chance of ecotoxicological effects on benthic organisms dwelling in this region. Inter-elemental relationship and cluster analysis revealed identical behavior of the elements during transport and distribution. The study will help to further the cause of environmental protection of this sensitive biorealm in conjunction with the need for development of the region.
High-Order Implicit Large-eddy Simulations of Flow around a Projectile using PyFR
Authors: Park Jin Seok
Published: November 2021

In this talk I will demonstrate how PyFR can be applied to simulate three challenging unsteady flow around projectile. The first problem is subsonic flow after projectile base, which yields a significant portion of drag of projectile. The numerical results are compared with the experiments in terms of aerodynamic drag, pressure distribution on base and separation bubble size. The second problem is to simulate so-called 'phantom-yaw', asymmetric shedding of vortices at high angle of attack. The distinct instability modes, which were witnessed in the experiments, are reproduced in simulations and flow structures of each mode are compared. The last problem is laminar separation bubble on Low-Reynolds Number airfoil. The numerical results are compared with the experiments in terms of aerodynamic forces and transition of separation bubbles along the angle of attack is witnessed.
