Published: April 2022

The recent advances in electronics and microelectronics devices allow the development of newly low-cost monitoring tools used by people for health preventive purposes. Sensors used in medical equipment convert various forms of human body vital signs into electrical signals. Therefore, the healthcare monitoring systems considering non-invasive and wearable sensors with integrated communication mediums allow an efficient solution to live a comfortable life at home. The sensors used in this work are a body temperature sensor and a blood oxygen sensor. The method that we used enables us to show the results of the sensor readings to a desktop application, then read the printout of the series and create a visual in the form of tables and graphs, as well as store the data in a database and display the data via a website in the form of reports that can be accessed remotely. The results obtained from the study conclude that, this application can be used to access data remotely.
A implementação do você no português brasileiro: evidências da língua escrita
Authors: Rumeu Márcia Cristina de Brito , Callou Dinah Maria Isensee
Published: April 2022

Este artigo focaliza a variação tu / você em tempo real de média duração (séculos XIX e XX). A proposta é realizar um estudo de painel, na linha laboviana, com base na produção epistolar de duas missivistas cariocas ao longo de suas vidas: juventude, adultez e velhice. Como já apontado por vários autores, o uso de fontes manuscritas, tais como cartas pessoais, desempenha um papel importante na pesquisa sócio-histórica. O objetivo é apontar como e quando teria ocorrido a inserção do você – em sua origem, uma forma de tratamento – no sistema pronominal do português brasileiro, vindo a substituir o tu como sujeito de 2SG. A hipótese inicial reside no fato de que a implementação de você teria uma correlação com o uso de usted, forma resultante de um processo de gramaticalização que se deu mais cedo no espanhol americano do que em português. As generalizações a que podemos chegar são as de que o processo de implementação do você, a julgar pelos dados analisados, se estendeu por, no mínimo, um século; (ii) o uso do você se mostrou quase categórico no final da década de 40 do século XX; e (iii) as duas missivistas encaminham-se em uma mesma direção quanto à implementação da forma pronominal você, embora apresentem distintos padrões de uso, explicáveis, talvez, pelo fato de uma delas ter exercido sua vida religiosa sempre no Brasil (MJ), em redes sociais densas, e a outra (MR), em geral, em outros países, em redes sociais difusas.
O preenchimento do sujeito pronominal em dois recortes do século XX: uma análise em dados escritos da cidade de Manaus (AM)
Authors: Farias Anderson Luiz da Silva , Martins Flávia Santos
Published: April 2022

O artigo trata sobre o preenchimento do sujeito pronominal em anúncios veiculados pelo Jornal do Commercio, Estado do Amazonas, o mais antigo que ainda se encontra em circulação no Estado. Para esta pesquisa, foram selecionados anúncios da primeira década do século XX (1904-1908) e da penúltima década do mesmo século (1980-1987). Os objetivos deste estudo são: (i) analisar o preenchimento do sujeito pronominal nesses dois recortes temporais e (ii) discutir se o PB do Amazonas está em um processo de mudança linguística, rumo ao preenchimento do sujeito pronominal. Trabalhamos com 131 anúncios, dos quais obtivemos 607 ocorrências, em sentenças declarativas, das quais categorizamos 466 de ‘sujeito nulo’ e 141 de ‘sujeito preenchido’. Foram controladas as seguintes variáveis independentes: pessoa do discurso, forma de realização do pronome, tempo verbal, forma nominal do verbo, animacidade do sujeito (linguísticas) e recorte temporal (extralinguística).  O resultado apontou que, levando os dados dos dois recortes em consideração, as variáveis que mais favorecem o ‘sujeito nulo’ são: recorte temporal e pessoa do discurso. Quando se faz a análise tomando separadamente os recortes temporais, nossa pesquisa mostrou que tanto no período I quanto no período II, as variáveis que favorecem o sujeito nulo são pessoa do discurso e forma de realização do pronome. Verificamos, ainda, que os índices de preenchimento do sujeito aumentam no período II em relação ao período I, fato que corrobora a hipótese de que o PB estaria cada vez mais se tornando uma língua de sujeito nulo parcial.

Abstract: Submission of financial reports must be reported to the public as quickly as possible and for several public companies in Indonesia this is still a problem every year. The time it takes for an independent auditor to complete the audit process on financial statements from the closing date of the financial statements is called an audit report lag, which will affect the publication of a company's financial statements. The research object in this study is the audit financial statements of manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2016-2018. This study used a sample of 64 companies per year for 3 years so that the sample data was 192. The data analysis used was descriptive statistical analysis, coefficient similarity test, classical assumption test, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results showed that financial distress and company size had a significant effect on audit report lag, while the level of tax avoidance and audit tenure had no significant effect on audit report lag.

Arkipäivän utopiat ovat yhteisöjä, jotka tavoittelevat yhteiskunnallista muutosta kokeilemalla erilaisia tapoja järjestää yhteiskunnallista ja poliittista elämää arkisissa yhteyksissä. Katsausartikkeli tarkastelee haastatteluaineiston avulla kahta arkipäivän utopiaa uusintavan työn näkökulmasta. Arkipäivän utopioiden tekeminen ja ylläpitäminen edellyttävät uusintavaa työtä: elämää ja yhteisöjä ylläpitävää, hyvinvointia tuottavaa, arjen lomassa tehtävää, pääsääntöisesti palkatonta työtä. Utopiatutkimuksen kentällä tämä näkökulma on kuitenkin jäänyt katveeseen. Feminististä uusintavan työn teoretisointia hyödyntäen katsaus tekee näkyväksi uusintavan työn muotoja arkipäivän utopioiden rakentamisessa. Keskeisiksi uusintavan työn muodoiksi ehdotetaan ruumiillista työtä, vuorovaikutustyötä, muistityötä ja kokeilutyötä. Katsaus osoittaa, että vaihtoehtoisia yhteiskuntamuotoja prefiguroivat arkipäivän utopiat tarjoavat tilan, jossa tuottavan ja uusintavan työn kategorioita ja niiden välisiä suhteita voidaan kuvitella ja järjestää uudelleen.

A qualitatively new level of training of teachers of preschool education will ensure the implementation of educational programs based on a research approach. The purpose of this study is to study the current state of research training in Kazakh universities in the direction "6В012 – Pedagogy of preschool education and training" and to outline ways to modify the research component in educational programs. Within the framework of the study, a meaningful analysis of twelve educational programs of Kazakhstani universities was carried out for the representation and relevance of the research component. The results obtained showed that in the content of all educational programs, the research component is represented by an elective course, which is an alternative in a number of universities. There is also a problem of determining the content of research courses, in particular, the logical sequence of the presentation of the material is violated, the content that does not correspond to the name of the course is proposed, outdated literature is recommended, etc. The problem of correctness and updating of course names requires special attention. The lack of research practice is also a serious omission in terms of the integrity of research training. The conclusions resulting from the results obtained show the need to modify the research training of students of preschool education.

Abstract. Wildfire impacts on air quality and climate are expected to be exacerbated by climate change with the most pronounced impacts in the boreal biome. Despite the large geographic coverage, there is a lack of information on boreal forest wildfire emissions, particularly for organic compounds, which are critical inputs for air quality model predictions of downwind impacts. In this study, airborne measurements of 250 compounds from 15 instruments, including 228 non-methane organics compounds (NMOG), were used to provide the most detailed characterization, to date, of boreal forest wildfire emissions. Highly speciated measurements showed a large diversity of chemical classes highlighting the complexity of emissions. Using measurements of the total NMOG carbon (NMOGT), the ΣNMOG was found to be 46.2 % of NMOGT, of which, the intermediate- and semi-volatile organic compounds (I/SVOCs) were estimated to account for 7.4 %. These estimates of I/SVOC emission factors expand the volatility range of NMOG typically reported. Despite extensive speciation, a substantial portion of NMOGT remained unidentified (46.4 %), with expected contributions from more highly-functionalized VOCs and I/SVOCs. The emission factors derived in this study improve wildfire chemical speciation profiles and are especially relevant for air quality modelling of boreal forest wildfires. These aircraft-derived emission estimates were further linked with those derived from satellite observations demonstrating their combined value in assessing variability in modelled emissions. These results contribute to the verification and improvement of models that are essential for reliable predictions of near-source and downwind pollution resulting from boreal forest wildfires.
Sensitivity of biomass burning emissions estimates to land surface information

Published: April 2022

Abstract. Emissions from biomass burning (BB) are a key source of atmospheric tracer gases that affect the atmospheric carbon cycle.
We developed four sets of global BB emissions estimates (named GlcGlob, GlcGeoc, McdGlob, and McdGeoc) using a bottom-up approach and by combining the remote sensing products related to fire distribution with two aboveground biomass (AGB) and two land cover classification (LCC) distributions.
The sensitivity of the estimates of BB emissions to the AGB and LCC data was evaluated using the carbon monoxide (CO) emissions associated with each BB estimate.
Using the AGB and/or LCC data led to substantially different spatial estimates of CO emissions, with a large (factor of approximately 3) spread of estimates for the mean annual CO emissions: 526±53, 219±35, 624±57, and 293±44 Tg CO yr−1 for GlcGlob, GlcGeoc, McdGlob, and McdGeoc, respectively, and 415±47 Tg CO yr−1 for their ensemble average (EsmAve).
We simulated atmospheric CO variability at an approximately 2.5∘ grid using an atmospheric tracer transport model and the BB emissions estimates and compared it with ground-based and satellite observations.
At ground-based observation sites during fire seasons, the impact of intermittent fire events was poorly defined in our simulations due to the coarse resolution, which obscured temporal and spatial variability in the simulated atmospheric CO concentration.
However, when compared at the regional and global scales, the distribution of atmospheric CO concentrations in the simulations shows substantial differences among the estimates of BB emissions.
These results indicate that the estimates of BB emissions are highly sensitive to the AGB and LCC data.
A proxy of subsurface Chlorophyll-a in shelf waters: use of density profiles and the below mixed layer depth (BMLD)
Authors: Zampollo Arianna , Cornulier Thomas , O'Hara Murray Rory , Tweddle Jacqueline F. , Dunning James , Scott Beth E.
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Primary production dynamics are strongly associated with vertical density profiles, which dictate the depth of stratification and mixed layers. Climate change and artificial structures (e.g. windfarms) are likely to modify the strength of stratification and vertical distribution of nutrient fluxes, especially in shelf seas where fine scale processes are important drivers, affecting the vertical distribution of phytoplankton. To understand the effect of physical changes on primary production, identifying the linkage between density and phytoplankton profiles is essential. Here, the ecological relevance of eight density layers (DLs) obtained by multiple methods that define three different portions of the pycnocline (above, centre, below) was evaluated to identify a valuable proxy for subsurface Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a mg m-3) concentrations. The associations of subsurface Chl-a with surface and deep mixing were investigated by hypothesizing the occurrence at the same depth of any DL and the maximum Chl-a layer (DMC) using Spearman correlation, linear regression, and a Major Axis analysis. Out of 1237 observations of the water column exhibiting a pycnocline, 78 % reported DMCs above the bottom mixed layer depth (BMLD). This suggests that the BMLD is a boundary trapping Chl-a in shallow waters (≤ 120 m). BMLD constantly described Chl-a vertical distribution despite surface mixing indicators, suggesting a significant contribution of deep mixing processes in supporting subsurface production under specific conditions (e.g. prolonged stratification, tidal cycle, and bathymetry). Using BMLD for defining subsurface Chl-a could be a valuable tool for understanding the spatiotemporal variability of Chl-a in shelf seas, representing a potential variable for ecological assessments.
The effect of Co substitution on the Raman spectra of pyrite: potential as an assaying tool
Authors: Berkh Khulan , Rammlmair Dieter
Published: April 2022

Abstract. The textural appearance of Co-bearing pyrite was visualized
by a mapping method using a Raman microprobe. Two out of five Raman active
modes (Eg and Ag) of pyrite were evaluated here. The obtained
Raman map tightly correlates with a Co distribution map revealed by electron
microprobe. Both Eg and Ag modes gradually downshift and broaden
with increasing Co concentration. The broadening and shifting of the Ag
mode is stronger compared to the Eg mode. Especially the intensity of the
Ag mode drastically drops and diminishes in comparison to the Eg
mode. Both 532 and 633 nm lasers revealed the same variation in position and
width of the Eg and Ag modes. Only the intensity ratio of the modes
differed because of an energy-dependent resonance scattering from the Ag
mode. The 1064 nm laser was unsuitable since the Raman scattering intensity
is inversely proportional to wavelength. Furthermore, highly broadened Raman
modes at upshifted frequencies caused by the standard mechanical polishing
could be avoided by analyzing cut or polished samples with a broad ion
beam.
Technical note: Quantifying uranium-series disequilibrium in natural samples for dosimetric dating – Part 1: gamma spectrometry
Authors: Mauz Barbara , Nolan Paul J. , Appleby Peter G.
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Dosimetric dating techniques rely on accurate and precise determination of environmental radioactivity. Gamma spectrometry is the method of choice for determining the activity of 238U, 232Th, and 40K. With the aim to standardize gamma-spectrometric procedures for the purpose of determining accurate parent nuclide activities in natural samples, we outline the basics of gamma spectrometry and practical laboratory procedures here. This includes gamma radiation and instrumentation, sample preparation, finding the suitable measurement geometry and sample size for a given detector, and using the most suitable energy peaks in a gamma spectrum. The issue of correct efficiency calibration is highlighted. The procedures outlined are required for estimating contemporary parent nuclide activity. For estimating changing activities during burial specific data analyses are required, and these are also highlighted.
Kritisches Kartieren als reflexive Praxis qualitativer Forschung
Authors: Michel Boris
Published: April 2022

Abstract. Both qualitative research in geography and visual geographies have an ambivalent relationship to maps and cartographic methods. Reasons for this include discourse-theoretical approaches to maps and cartography since the 1980s, the tension between the self-images of modern cartography and the methodological perspectives of qualitative approaches, the relationship between map and image, or the role of technology in cartography and GIS. On the one hand, this ambivalent relationship can be well explained historically. On the other hand, a number of possible connections can be pointed out. Based on current discussions in geography and beyond, the article therefore explores and systematizes practices of critical mapping in order to explore new possibilities of connection between visual approaches of qualitative geographies and maps.

Published: April 2022

Today, with the increasing needs, people are in contact with each other more often. This communication takes place through language. Thus, people want to learn a foreign language other than their mother tongue. In language learning stages, structural and socio-cultural contradictions arise due to the fact that the languages in the world belong to different language families. This causes difficulties in understanding and expressing skills during the foreign language learning stage. Comprehension and narration skills; listening-reading-writing-speaking. Students try to acquire these skills in the time allotted to each of them in the foreign language course. It has been observed that 4th grade students studying at Iraq Stirling School in the 2021-2022 academic year have difficulties in speaking skills while learning Turkish as a foreign language. Thereupon, the existence of this problem was embodied by the questionnaire applied to 4 teachers working as Turkish teachers at the school. The aim of this study is to find out what factors affect students' speaking difficulties, to determine the effects of speaking Turkish as a foreign language on students' speaking Turkish, which is related to gender, teacher, classroom environment and more than one language. For this purpose, a questionnaire was applied to 40 4th grade students. As a result of this survey, it was determined that 67% of the students had difficulties in speaking Turkish. Keywords: Foreign language Turkish, comprehension-expression skills, speech difficulties

The research results of unpasteurized and non-factory farmed milk sold at random selling spots are presented in the current article.
In all samples subjected to expert examination, soda has been detected, which means that the milk was adulterated. Nor did the organoleptic indices comply with the accepted standards. In some samples, a suspicious reaction to brucellosis and mastitis was observed. Hence, the milk sale at non-specialized selling spots should be prohibited, as its consumption poses danger to human health and can become a source for the spread of infectious diseases.

Authors: Irshad Aqsa , Naseem Samira , Nasreen Abida
Published: April 2022

This qualitative research aims to explore how students in a single autonomous institution of Sargodha were affected by FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). It was common during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it has been characterized as "a constant fear that others may be experiencing gratifying experiences that one is losing out on that one is missing out on". Six students were interviewed one-on-one in semi-structured interviews from the first and third semesters. It showed that during COVID-19, students had surprising grassroots support systems that were mostly isolated from one another, such as their fellow students in university. They missed events with peers and fellows and remain confused during pandemic but the significance of social media also added in fear of missing out due to its use during COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers recommend that students should be taught how to manage the situation emotionally when confronted with crises. Students in higher education, as well as people of all ages, could benefit from resilience-building programs. One of the most effective ways for students is to cope with the problems that have a strong sense of self and who is positive and resilient in such type of situations.

Aim: The fundamental objective and goal of the current research is to determine the effectiveness of Cassia tora in the treatment of gastric ulcers in order to produce an anti-ulcer medication of natural origin. Method: The plant material was successively extracted by the Soxhlet extraction technique with chloroform, methanol, butanol and water. The antioxidant activity of the plant extracts and the standard drugs were based on consideration of the radical scavenging influence of the stable "1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl" (DPPH) free radical action and hydrogen peroxide process. Two models, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory induced ulcer and pyloric ligation, were analysed for methanolic extract of Cassia tora for its antiulcer activity. Results: Among all the extract, the percent of DPPH inhibition at 200 μg mL-1 for MECT extracts (Cassia tora methanolic extract) was 58.67±1.95. The overall scavenging potential for the H2O2 process was 68.23±0.19 at 200 μg mL-1 by MECT extract. Hence MECT extract was undertaken for the antiulcer property. Compared with control, there was a significant (p<0.05) decrease in free acidity, gastric volume, and total acidity in the extract-treated classes and ranitidine (standard). The Cassia tora methanolic extract demonstrated significant (p<0.05) inhibition activity, i.e. 59.42 and 69.59 percent at 500 mg mL-1 with the PL (Pylorus ligation) and NSAID (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) process respectively. Conclusion: The findings of present study provide the scientific evidence to Cassia tora as a strong antiulcer and antioxidant agent.

Working from home, caratteristiche dei lavoratori e salari: evidenze dai dati amministrativi
Authors: Brunetti Irene , Ricci Andrea , Scicchitano Sergio
Published: April 2022

L'articolo analizza la relazione che lega le occupazioni che possono essere svolte ‘da casa’ (WFH), le caratteristiche dei lavoratori e l’evoluzione dei salari individuali. A tal fine si utilizza un dataset che integra le informazioni sulla natura delle professioni (Indagine ICP-Inapp), i dati sulle attivazioni e cessazioni dei rapporti di lavoro (SISCO-MLPS) e quelli sui redditi da lavoro dipendente (archivio Inps) per il periodo 2011-2018. L’applicazione di semplici modelli di regressione mostra quindi una correlazione positiva e significativa tra la circostanza di essere occupati in lavori che possono essere realizzati da remoto e le prospettive salariali degli individui. Tale correlazione, d’altra parte, è fortemente condizionata dal profilo demografico e contrattuale dei lavoratori coinvolti. In particolare, la possibilità di svolgere la propria occupazione da casa si accompagna a una penalizzazione salariale per la componente femminile dell’occupazione e per chi ha un contratto a termine. Infine, sono discusse le implicazioni di policy.
