Published: December 2022

Abstract. Four upper tropospheric humidity (UTH) datasets derived
from satellite sounders are evaluated to assess their consistency as part of the activities for the Global Energy and Water Exchanges (GEWEX) water vapor assessment project. The datasets include UTH computed from brightness
temperature measurements of the 183.31±1 GHz channel of the Special
Sensor Microwave – Humidity (SSM/T-2), Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-B
(AMSU-B), and Microwave Humidity Sounder (MHS) and from channel 12 of the
High-resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS). The four datasets are
generally consistent in the interannual temporal and spatial variability of
the tropics. Large positive anomalies peaked over the central equatorial
Pacific region during El Niño events in the same phase with the increase of sea surface temperature (SST). Conversely, large negative anomalies were obtained during El Niño events when the tropical-domain average is
taken. The weakened ascending branch of the Pacific Walker circulation in
the western Pacific and the enhanced descending branches of the local Hadley circulation along the Pacific subtropics largely contributed to widespread drying areas and thus negative anomalies in the upper troposphere during El Niño events as shown in all four datasets. During a major El Niño event, UTH had higher correlations with the coincident precipitation (0.60 to 0.75) and with 200 hPa velocity potential (−0.42 to −0.64) than with SST (0.37 to 0.49). Due to differences in retrieval definitions and gridding procedures, there can be a difference of 3 %–5 % UTH between datasets on average, and larger magnitudes of anomaly values are usually observed in spatial maps of microwave UTH data. Nevertheless, the tropical-domain averaged anomalies of the datasets are close to each other with their differences being mostly less than 0.5 %, and more importantly the phases of the time series are generally consistent for variability studies.
A global analysis of water storage variations from remotely sensed soil moisture and daily satellite gravimetry
Authors: Blank Daniel , Eicker Annette , Jensen Laura , Güntner Andreas
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Water storage changes in the soil can be observed on a global scale with different types of satellite remote sensing. While active or passive microwave sensors are limited to the upper few centimeters of the soil, satellite gravimetry can detect changes of terrestrial water storage (TWS) in an integrative way but it cannot distinguish between storage variations in different compartments or soil depths. Jointly analyzing both data types promises novel insights into the dynamics of subsurface water storage and of related hydrological processes. In this study, we investigate the global relationship of (1) several satellite soil moisture products and (2) non-standard daily TWS data from the GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite gravimetry missions on different time scales. The six soil moisture products analyzed in this study differ in post-processing and the considered soil depth. Level-3 surface soil moisture data sets of SMAP and SMOS are compared to post-processed Level-4 data products (surface and root zone soil moisture) and the ESA CCI multi-satellite product. On a common global 1 degree grid, we decompose all TWS and soil moisture data into seasonal to sub-monthly signal components and compare their spatial patterns and temporal variability. We find larger correlations between TWS and soil moisture for soil moisture products with deeper integration depths (root zone vs. surface layer) and for Level-4 data products. Even for high-pass filtered sub-monthly variations, significant correlations of up to 0.6 can be found in regions with large high-frequency storage variability. A time-shift analysis of TWS versus soil moisture data reveals the differences in water storage dynamics with integration depth.
Coupling a global glacier model to a global hydrological model prevents underestimation of glacier runoff

Published: December 2022

Abstract. Global hydrological models have become a valuable tool for a range of global impact studies related to water resources. However, glacier parameterization is often simplistic or non-existent in global hydrological models. By contrast, global glacier models do represent complex glacier dynamics and glacier evolution, and as such, they hold the promise of better resolving glacier runoff estimates. In this study, we test the hypothesis that coupling a global glacier model with a global hydrological model leads to a more realistic glacier representation and, consequently, to improved runoff predictions in the global hydrological model. To this end, the Global Glacier Evolution Model (GloGEM) is coupled with the PCRaster GLOBal Water Balance model, version 2.0 (PCR-GLOBWB 2), using the eWaterCycle platform. For the period 2001–2012, the coupled model is evaluated against the uncoupled PCR-GLOBWB 2 in 25 large-scale (>50 000 km2), glacierized basins. The coupled model produces higher runoff estimates across all basins and throughout the melt season. In summer, the runoff differences range from 0.07 % for weakly glacier-influenced basins to 252 % for strongly glacier-influenced basins. The difference can primarily be explained by PCR-GLOBWB 2 not accounting for glacier flow and glacier mass loss, thereby causing an underestimation of glacier runoff. The coupled model performs better in reproducing basin runoff observations mostly in strongly glacier-influenced basins, which is where the coupling has the most impact. This study underlines the importance of glacier representation in global hydrological models and demonstrates the potential of coupling a global hydrological model with a global glacier model for better glacier representation and runoff predictions in glacierized basins.
Coastal topography and hydrogeology control critical groundwater gradients and potential beach surface instability during storm surges
Authors: Paldor Anner , Stark Nina , Florence Matthew , Raubenheimer Britt , Elgar Steve , Housego Rachel , Frederiks Ryan S. , Michael Holly A.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Ocean surges pose a global threat for coastal stability.
These hazardous events alter flow conditions and pore pressures in flooded
beach areas during both inundation and subsequent retreat stages, which can
mobilize beach material, potentially enhancing erosion significantly. In
this study, the evolution of surge-induced pore-pressure gradients is studied through numerical hydrologic simulations of storm surges. The spatiotemporal variability of critically high gradients is analyzed in three dimensions. The analysis is based on a threshold value obtained for quicksand formation
of beach materials under groundwater seepage. Simulations of surge events
show that, during the run-up stage, head gradients can rise to the calculated critical level landward of the advancing inundation line. During the
receding stage, critical gradients were simulated seaward of the retreating
inundation line. These gradients reach maximum magnitudes just as sea level
returns to pre-surge levels and are most accentuated beneath the still-water shoreline, where the model surface changes slope. The gradients vary along
the shore owing to variable beach morphology, with the largest gradients
seaward of intermediate-scale (1–3 m elevation) topographic elements (dunes)
in the flood zone. These findings suggest that the common practices in
monitoring and mitigating surge-induced failures and erosion, which typically focus on the flattest areas of beaches, might need to be revised to include other topographic features.
VOXELIZATION TECHNIQUES: DATA SEGMENTATION AND DATA MODELLING FOR 3D BUILDING MODELS
Authors: Ridzuan N. , Ujang U. , Azri S. , Mohamad Yusoff I. , Choon T. L.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Voxelization of data is discretizing the 3D space, in which the simplest form is a single voxel. There is a large number of publications that are related to voxelization. However, this paper focuses on the voxelization technique implemented in 3D building modelling. This paper aims to get the development idea of the voxelization technique throughout these past years to determine the suitable technique and method for including a 3D voxelized building model in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). From the search and analysis, it is found that this technique is not only related to data modelling of the 3D voxelized model; the voxelization technique can also be utilized in the data segmentation process. First, for the data segmentation, the voxelization technique is implemented to manage the large amount of point cloud data that were obtained from the 3D scanner and sensors, which is done by reducing the number of data to avoid data redundancy and unused data using each of the voxels that exist in that environment. Second, for data modelling, popular input data to generate the 3D voxelized model is also in the form of a point cloud. However, there are still other forms, such as line and surface. Nevertheless, this paper reviews the voxelized technique in building modelling despite some data segmentation. The review shows various input data, applications, and techniques associated with the voxelization process based on building model generation. However, there is still room for improvement that allows the 3D model to be modelled in the voxelized form in the CFD domain.
BIG TRAJECTORY DATA: A DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Anbaroğlu B. , Alter Y.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Trajectory data constitute location of objects at specified time intervals. The continuous availability of GNSS signals, or discrete availability of sensor systems such as license plate recognition cameras are used to generate trajectory data. Consequently, in a smart city context, big trajectory data are being generated on a daily basis. The analysis of big trajectory data entails the use of a distributed environment to conduct analysis, and at least two data sources. The literature review conducted in this paper shows that the two Vs of big data, Volume and Variety, may not be satisfied since researchers usually rely on a centralised computing environment, and analyse data coming from a single data source. Out of the 17 papers published from 2020 in Scopus, only five of them relied on a distributed computing environment, and two of them utilised more than one data source.

Published: December 2022

Abstract. The climate change is hitting the whole world, and with different level of severity from one geographical zone to another. There are different sensible environments, where its impact is having dramatic consequences on the life, for human being as well for fauna and flora. One of this sensible environment is the oasis. For example, in Moroccan oases, the conditions are getting more dramatic, with harsh desertification, scarcity of the precipitations, and more dangerously is the diminished groundwater, caused by less rain, less snow on the mountains, and evaporation of few available water due to thigh temperature. Other factors come to worsen the situation, such diseases in palm trees, olive tree, more frequent fire even outside of the hot season, etc. In this paper, we list and discuss some of the major challenges and problems facing the oasis environment, and we propose some smart applications to hep this environment to overcome such problems/challenges from societal, economic as well as environmental aspects. These solutions are pointed as smart to, because they are based on some advanced Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), through data collection from sensors, data transmission, and then data analysis in order to make some intelligent decisions through algorithms to meet some optical decisions for resources utilisation. The term of “resources” covers energy, water, space, etc. In other works, we discuss “Internet-of-Things” (IoT) paradigm for modelling, synthesis and deployment of smart oasis.
DEEP BUILDING FOOTPRINT EXTRACTION FOR URBAN RISK ASSESSMENT – REMOTE SENSING AND DEEP LEARNING BASED APPROACH
Authors: Mharzi Alaoui H. , Radoine H. , Chenal J. , Hajji H. , Yakubu H.
Published: December 2022

Abstract. Mapping building footprints can play a crucial role in urban dynamics moni-toring, risk assessment and disaster management. Available free building footprints, like OpenStreetMap, provide manually annotated building foot-print information for some urban areas; however, frequently it does not en-tirely cover urban areas in many parts of the world and is not always availa-ble. The huge potential for meaningful ground information extraction from high-resolution Remote Sensing imagery can be considered as an alternative and a reliable source of data for building footprint generation. Therefore, the aim of the study is to explore the use of satellite imagery data and some of the state-of-the art deep learning tools to fully automate building footprint extraction. To better understand the usability and generalization ability of those approaches, this study proposes a comparative analysis of the perfor-mances and characteristics of two of the most recent deep learning models such as Unet and Attention-Unet for building footprint generation.

On Validators for Psychiatric Categories
Authors: Solomon Miriam
Published: December 2022

The concept of a “validator” as a unit of evidence for the validity of a psychiatric category has been important for more than fifty years. Validator evidence is aggregated by expert committees (for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), these are referred to as “workgroups”), which use the results to make nosological decisions. Through an examination of the recent history of psychiatric research, this paper argues that it is time to reassess this traditional practice. It concludes with specific suggestions for going forward.

Published: December 2022

This study characterized the acute toxicity of Monocrotophos on histological alterations in the different organs like gills, Hepatopancreas and ovary of Anomuran Crab, Emerita asiatica. Though Emerita asiatica is not a commercially viable crab, but it plays a vital role in the coastal environment to maintain a stable marine ecosystem. Several steps and precautions measures should be taken to consume these members of the marine food chain to have aunwavering ecosystem and also to protect this species from extinction. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of Monocrotophos which has been legally banned in India is justified. It has been proved by several workers and has been conformed in present investigation that use of this organophosphate causes serious damage to the vital organ of sand crabs gill, hepatopancreas and ovary. The utilization of Monocrotophos should be minimized in the agricultural field area near to the coastal ecosystem.

O objetivo do presente estudo é refletir sobre os aspectos estéticos da formação docente por meio de narrativas (auto)biográficas, produzidas a partir da metodologia do dispositivo “Colcha de Retalhos” (BERKENBROCK-ROSITO, 2009, 2014) e desenvolvidas remotamente com um grupo de professores, como um caminho para a construção de saberes individuais e coletivos sobre aprendizagens e docência, incluindo a educação tecnológica. A partir de um questionário de autoavaliação, fez-se uma análise das respostas dos professores participantes da pesquisa apoiada em Josso (2007), Delory-Momberger (2016) e Passeggi (2010, 2016). Para a análise do corpus textual deste estudo, elegemos o enfoque hermenêutico, especificamente o círculo da compreensão na perspectiva de Gadamer (2000). Os dados revelam, dentro do paradigma singular-plural de Josso (2007), uma (re)significação da experiência no próprio percurso formativo docente, que, no âmbito de pesquisa-formação, permite a construção de conhecimentos e histórias compartilhadas em tempos e espaços via a estética da tecnologia.

Published: December 2022

Este artigo propõe-se a pensar alternativas que possibilitem a emancipação humana por meio da educação. Diante disso, a proposta pedagógica aqui desenvolvida, que surge da investigação traçada em torno da “educação bancária”, diagnosticada por Paulo Freire, objetiva elaborar reflexões alternativas ao modelo hegemônico de educação. O método de abordagem empregado foi o dedutivo, e o de procedimento, a análise interpretativa e crítica por intermédio de pesquisa bibliográfica. Os resultados revelam a necessidade de transformações urgentes às quais o sistema educacional deve se submeter, mediante o retorno das aulas presenciais, a fim de garantir que a instituição atue como geradora de bem-estar social. Por fim, é anunciada uma educação pós-pandêmica, que possibilitaria a chegada de novos paradigmas em detrimento daqueles que  herdamos da cultura ocidental moderna.

Published: December 2022

A formação continuada de professores do campo é considerada fulcral para a construção da identidade de ser professor e para a construção de uma proposta de educação voltada para o desenvolvimento campesino. Este espaço formativo, o qual acontece tanto em serviço, no espaço escolar, como fora dele, nas universidades, nos institutos e nos movimentos sociais, é considerado como território de disputa e poder. Num empenho de compreensão, discutimos a formação continuada e sua relação entre teoria e prática nas resoluções e nas prescrições da Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) à luz da categoria de análise “contradição”, do método materialismo dialético. Para isso, utilizamos pesquisa bibliográfica, análise documental e dados coletados por meio de questionários com secretários de educação e professores do campo dos quatro municípios pesquisados que fazem parte do Território de Identidade Velho Chico. Os resultados apontam formações com foco na epistemologia da prática pedagógica, condicionada a problemas que surgem no cotidiano da sala de aula, troca de conhecimentos, relatos de experiências exitosas e compartilhamento de angústias; formação concentrada nos conhecimentos essenciais: português e matemática (leitura, escrita e cálculo), com preparação para as avaliações externas e carência de formação continuada específica para a Educação do Campo. Por fim, acerca da centralidade na epistemologia da prática marcada pela educação rural, apontamos a práxis com a valorização dos conhecimentos construídos pela humanidade e a unidade teoria e prática.

Authors: Sales Cruz Rochelle , Bastos Laísa Marra de Paula Cunha
Published: December 2022

O artigo examina o romance A Rainha do Ignoto (1899), de Emília Freitas, demonstrando as inovações formais do texto, que se constrói com base na literatura fantástica e gótica. Busca-se compreender como essas tradições literárias ajudaram a construir um enredo que contrapõe criticamente dois planos, um real e um utópico, os quais estabelecem uma referência subversiva ao conturbado ambiente político brasileiro de fins do século XIX. Além disso, discutem-se as construções de gênero das personagens protagonistas do romance tendo-se em vista a particular apropriação que faz Emília Freitas da forma gótica para narrar a relação entre medo e gênero sexual.

Published: December 2022

Divorce remains one of the most severe social issues in any society because divorce is an integral component of an elementary social institution of the family. Besides, divorce rates are drastically increasing worldwide, including in Pakistan. Therefore, this study is to identify perceived proximate and underlying causes of divorce in the Hazara Division, Pakistan. The pragmatic research approach and snowball sampling were employed to recruit 75 male and female divorcees. Moreover, data was collected through a self-administered questionnaire and analysed using IBM SPSS 25 through descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis. The divorcees recognised prominent proximate causes of divorce, including personality traits of spouses, poverty, spending or handling money carelessly by the spouse, and infertility. In comparison, media addiction, relationship traits, the role of families and friends, infidelity, and domestic violence were identified as distinguished underlying drivers behind the divorce. The logistic regression analysis results indicate that the age and work status of the divorcee or his/her spouse and the number of children significantly impact distinct foundations for divorce. The study concluded that among numerous other causes, media addiction is prominently giving rise to many inconsistencies in married life, leading to divorce.

Radioterapia estereotáctica para el tratamiento de la taquicardia ventricular refractaria
Authors: Llanos-Méndez Aurora
Published: December 2022

Introducción / justificación: La SBRT es una técnica de radioterapia externa que consiste en aplicar altas dosis de radiación de forma precisa y convergente sobre la lesión sin incrementar la irradiación de los órganos o estructuras adyacentes. Se propone como tratamiento de la taquicardia ventricular refractaria. Objetivo: Los objetivos específicos de esta revisión se centraron en valorar la seguridad y eficacia de la SBRT en el tratamiento de pacientes con taquicardia ventricular refractaria. Metodología: Se buscó en las bases de datos referenciales (hasta febrero de 2021) MedLine, Embase y WOS, así como en el registro de ensayos clínicos de la Cochrane Library, la Red Internacional de Agencias de Evaluación de Tecnologías y EuroScan. También se revisó manualmente diversos sitios WEB relacionados con el tema, así como en el registro de ensayos clínicos de la Cochrane Library, la Red Internacional de Agencias de Evaluación de Tecnologías y EuroScan. También se revisó manualmente diversos sitios WEB relacionados con el tema. Se seleccionaron los estudios en los que se evaluara la eficacia del tratamiento con SBRT en términos de reducción de la carga de enfermedad, supervivencia, mejora en la calidad de vida de pacientes con taquicardia ventricular refractaria a los tratamientos habituales. Resultados: Se recuperaron 4 estudios, hubo una revisión sistemática, un estudio prospectivo cuasi experimental con diseño antes-después (ENCORE-VT) y otros 2 retrospectivos antes-después. Los estudios mostraron la técnica como segura a corto plazo, gracias al alto grado de precisión para administrar la dosis minimizando la toxicidad de subestructuras cardiacas. La supervivencia al año ha sido superior a 72%, lo que, aunque la muestra de los estudios fue pequeña y los estudios no incluyeron grupo control, podría suponer un aumento con respecto al grupo de pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca en los que el tratamiento habitual no tiene éxito (31%-59% supervivencia libre de trasplante al año). En cuanto a la calidad de vida, evaluada en el estudio ENCORE-VT, mostró mejora en 5 de 9 dominios y permaneció sin cambio en los 4 restantes. No se recuperaron estudios económicos.
Advancing spectral/hp element high fidelity simulation of incompressible and compressible flows
Authors: Sherwin Spencer
Published: December 2022

Introduction: Advanced high order methods using Spectral/hp element discretization including Galerkin, Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) and Flux Reconstruction (FR) formulations are gaining notable interest in both the academic and industrial sectors. The compact nature of the approach is not only attractive from the perspective of implementation on modern computational hardware but also provides a consistent geometric and spatially localized accuracy unlike many high order finite volume methods. These features make the methodology attractive in complex geometry flows involving transitional and turbulent boundary layers demanding a high level of accuracy for high end engineering applications that commonly arise in the aeronautical sector.

Aim Scope: In this presentation, we will present our current work on developing and advancing spectral/hp element incompressible and compressible flow solvers for industry relevant, high fidelity applications. The demands of handling “industrial strength” complex geometries at high Reynolds numbers presents a number of challenges both in terms high order mesh generation, stabilization of marginally resolved flows and maintaining computational efficiency. In this presentation we will highlight our on-going efforts to address all of these challenges and demonstrate the suitability of the approach for a number of representative examples.

Published: December 2022

Purpose: The principal aim of this study was to establish the microbial epidemiology of vaginal infections and to study the susceptibility of strains isolated to antibiotics. The secondary aim was to orient probabilistic antibiotic therapy. Methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study, covering a period of 9 years, from 2013 to 2022, conducted in the Bacteriology Department of the Avicenne Military Hospital in Marrakech. Results: The number of vaginal swabs taken in our study over a period of 9 years (2013-2022) was 693, of which 131 cases of vaginal infections were diagnosed, i.e. 19%. On fresh examination the presence of Trichomonas vaginalis was observed in 15 samples or 2.1%. Direct examination after Gram staining showed the presence in 33.4% of cases of clue cells suggestive of Gardnerella vaginalis; Gram-positive Coccis were present in 22.1%, yeasts in 17%, and Gram-negative bacilli in 5%. The distribution by species showed the predominance of clues cells evoking Gardnerella vaginalis which represented 35% of the isolates, followed by Streptococcus agalactiae at 28%, Candida albicans at 10%, and Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis by 5%. Conclusion: Our study showed the great microbial diversity of female genital infections with a predominance of bacterial vaginosis due mainly to Gardnerella vaginalis but also an important frequency of bacterial vaginitis represented essentially by Streptococcus agalactiae, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae.

The Relationship between the Pre-Service Science Teachers’ Self-Efficacy towards Science Teaching and Tendency to Use Technology in Classes
Authors: Temur Atilla , Durukan Alper , Artun Huseyin
Published: December 2022

The effectiveness of science instruction undoubtedly relies heavily on the teacher. Moreover, international guidelines for science teacher training and the standards for their competencies emphasize the adequate utilization of instructional technologies. In this light, sophisticated instruction of science demands a teacher who has a high self-efficacy perception and is fluent in the use of instructional technology during the classes. Given these motives, this quantitative correlational study examined the relationship between senior pre-service science teachers’ self-efficacy perceptions towards teaching science and their tendency to use technology in class. The study sample consisted of 91 undergraduate students enrolled in the Science Education program of a state University in the Eastern Anatolian region of Turkey. The data was collected using two Likert-type scales subjected to Pearson Correlation analysis. The findings implied a positive, although the relatively weak linear relationship between the tendency to use technology in class and self-efficacy perceptions towards teaching science. Moreover, the calculated coefficient of determination value implies that either of the factors only infers 8% of the total variance of self-efficacy tendency to use technology. Finally, the implications and potential underlying factors affecting this relationship are discussed.

Authors: Rose Borges Cavalcante Edirlânia , Cavalcante Feitoza Christiane
Published: December 2022

Objetivo: Identificar a extensão dos danos à saúde e à qualidade do sono dos profissionais de enfermagem. Métodos: Revisão integrativa da literatura. Resultados: Os artigos selecionados abordavam as características e distúrbios apresentados por profissionais de enfermagem que trabalham em turnos e a influência do trabalho noturno sobre a saúde deles. Viu-se que os participantes eram predominantemente do sexo feminino. Observou-se que alguns estudos relacionaram negativamente o número elevado de plantões à qualidade do sono dos profissionais de enfermagem e que os setores da Unidade de Terapia Intensiva (UTI) e de emergência apresentam profissionais com maiores problemas relacionados ao sono. Os sintomas de distúrbios do sono mais encontrados foram sonolência diurna excessiva, ansiedade e insônia, além de depressão, estresse, cefaleia e fadiga. Conclusão: O trabalho em turnos possui influência direta na qualidade do sono e na saúde dos profissionais de enfermagem, levando a alterações fisiológicas e psicológicas.
Desarrollo bioeconómico y manglares en América Latina
Authors: Sol-Sánchez Angel , Hernández-Melchor Gloria Isela , Hernández-Hernández Manuel
Published: December 2022

La demanda de bienes y servicios aumenta en función del crecimiento de la población, lo que conlleva a la sobreexplotación de los recursos naturales y al desequilibrio de ecosistemas naturales. A nivel mundial se han realizado tratados, convenios y acuerdos con el fin de asegurar la gestión de los recursos naturales, fomentando acciones que reduzcan el calentamiento global y garanticen la protección de la biodiversidad. Sin embargo; la aceptación de estos tratados, convenios y acuerdos, no ha tenido la repercusión esperada ni su implementación ha tenido mayor trascendencia. Por lo tanto, este trabajo tuvo el objetivo de recopilar información relacionada con las principales actividades comerciales que están causando la deforestación de manglares en América Latina. Su importancia radica en que favorece el desarrollo de especies acuáticas con valor nutricional y comercial, sustento de la bioeconomía de las comunidades costeras a través de la pesca, la producción de madera y carbón, almacenamiento de carbono, el efecto amortiguador de huracanes y tormentas, control de erosión costera e intrusión salina, también funcionan como filtros biológicos. A nivel mundial se estima que los manglares aportan 1.600 millones de dólares estadounidenses al año en servicios ecosistémicos y como medio de vida. Sin embargo, de 1980 a 2005 en América Latina se perdieron 807.030 ha de manglar. Las principales causas se atribuyen a la agricultura en la llanura costera, la expansión urbana, las industrias petroleras, la construcción de carreteras y puentes, y la conversión a industrias de cultivo de camarones.

Methods: Bodyweight, height and Q0 were measured and footprints were obtained in 50 children with DS and 50 typically developing children (control), ages between 2-6 years. BMI and Staheli index (SI) were calculated.

Results: The mean walking age was 26±8 months in the DS group and 12±2 months in the control group (p
Identifying plant species and their usage for landscape on the historical mural paintings of Nan, Thailand
Authors: Chatakul Paron , Janpathompong Shusak
Published: December 2022

Nowadays, marketing influences landscape design plant selection in Thailand, with less concern for ecology, culture, or local identity. Archaic murals showing historical contexts offer extraordinary evidence related to the effort to understand the history of plants in the geographic area. It is highly informative to study whether plants on murals correlate with plants that were part of daily life at the time that the murals were created. The study of Thailand's famous murals at Phumin and Nongbua temples is the first complete identification of plant species in Tid Buaphan's murals in Nan province. It aims to (1) document the plants on the murals in a database, (2) categorize and analyze them in order to identify their species, and (3) validate the plant species and study how they were used for landscape design in various contexts. 

The murals at both temples were examined, photographed, and coded for documentation in a database. The collected pictures were classified by physical characteristics and identified by investigating the Tai Lue scripts and Lord Buddha allegories, which are represented as stories on the murals. Moreover, some realistic paintings were analyzed and compared with botany literature and discussed in interviews with a botanist. 

There are 259 paintings in 76 groups at Phumin temple, and 560 paintings in 138 groups at Nongbua temple. The results show 35 hypothetical species, including eight exotic species. Plants are represented in various contexts, including residences, towns, and agricultural and natural areas. The identified species were potentially used for consumption, daily use, ornamentation, or a representions of religious or cultural beliefs. This research suggests plant species that reveal their historical value and can be used for current landscape design that seeks to express the historical and cultural values of Nan province.
Sanism and Narrative Research: Making Room for Mad Stories
Authors: Hess Juliet
Published: December 2022

This article considers challenges and possibilities that narrative researchers in music education might encounter when attempting to recount stories of Madness. Narrative restorying often follows a three-dimensional space structure that includes the commonplaces of temporality, sociality, and place (Clandinin, 2016; Clandinin et al., 2016; Clandinin & Connelly, 2000). Mad stories, however, do not easily restory into this structure. I center my own experiences of being bipolar to explore how such experiences particularly disrupt dimensions of temporality and sociality and assert that narrative researchers might learn to make room for Madness when telling stories. Moreover, I reflect on the impact of sanism—the oppression that Mad people experience—on Mad stories. In considering how narrative researchers might make space for Mad stories, I offer an expanded four-dimensional narrative structure alongside critical storytelling and draw upon the work of Patricia O'Toole (1994) and Roberta Lamb (1993–1994) to explore how researchers might represent such stories.
Anti-Blackness, Black Geographies, and Racialized Depopulation in Coalfield Appalachia from 1940 to 2000
Authors: Schwartzman Gabe
Published: December 2022

In this article, I investigate the ways that anti-Blackness has shaped coalfield Appalachia's human geographies. I draw on Black Studies and Black geographies literature to inform my theorization of anti-Blackness. Beginning with the question of why Black people left Appalachia in greater numbers than their white neighbors, I find that Black people left the mountains largely due to the unequal effects of deindustrialization. Black communities faced a racialized hierarchy of labor in the coal mines, racialized exposure to hazards and environmental risk, and the pull of other places with friends, family, and better jobs. I argue that the experiences of Black communities in the coalfields illustrate the supposition in Black geographies literature that anti-Blackness shapes human geographies by reproducing assumptions that Black people are aspatial, as in “not producing and making space.” I conclude with a brief analysis of the narratives that white people tell about Appalachian whiteness and identity, and I argue that Black people continue to be deemed out of place in dominant narratives about the region.
Visual Art and Pragmatic Truth: Georgia O’Keeffe at the Helm
Authors: Wertz S. K.
Published: December 2022

This essay examines an oil painting by Georgia O’Keeffe, Ritz Tower (1928), applying the terms of William James’s pragmatic conception of truth and the ideas that play a part in it, for example, pluralism and spiritualism, along with assistance from Martin Heidegger’s notion of Wohnung (dwelling). This is not only a fruitful way to look at her painting but paintings in the same or similar genre. Aesthetic judgments made about Ritz Tower are true if they work (in the pragmatic sense) for those who make said judgments if they find them successful in fitting in with other ideas and beliefs in their aesthetic experience of the painting or other artworks.
“Gender” Performs Tacitly: The “Tacit Turn” in Pedagogy
Authors: Kraus Anja
Published: December 2022

Pedagogy in general is not only ruled by planning, explicit normative framings, and governmental strategies, but its topics, such as the success or the failure of teaching or learning processes or learners’ precarious or promising personality development, are also decisively influenced by unspoken, silent, corporal, spatial, material, barred, or alienated dimensions of pedagogy. Gender as an analytical category encloses these dimensions, as well as being a social category. In this essay, three sets of arguments, referring to implicit or tacit knowing, to bodiliness and corporeality, and to performativity and mimesis will be used to explain the tacit side of gender as a dimension of pedagogy.
Ambiguity within the Boundary: Re-reading C.L.R. James’s Beyond a Boundary
Authors: MacLean Malcolm
Published: December 2022

The literary turn in cultural and historical analysis has introduced a suite of new perspectives, theoretical approaches, and analytical techniques to the humanities and social sciences. The emergence of post-colonial modes of analysis, related to this literary turn, has increased our awareness and interpretation of various representational techniques in and approaches to colonial cultures. One theoretical approach has shaped a major strand of these post-colonial interpretations: Homi K. Bhabha’s argument that subaltern cultures may be understood as characterized by ironic mimicry and a “sly civility.” Although this model is seldom explicitly invoked in sports studies, it remains implicit in many interpretations of sport in the British Empire. This paper explores the usefulness of these tropes derived from Bhabha’s work through a critical reading of C.L.R. James’s Beyond a Boundary.
The American Dream of Chuck Ramkissoon: Cricket in Joseph O’Neill’s Netherland
Authors: Hill Jeffrey
Published: December 2022

The place of cricket in American sport has been examined in some detail for the late nineteenth century. For the period thereafter, however, the subject has been overlooked, in spite of evident support for the game in various parts of the country at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The appearance in 2008 of Joseph O’Neill’s critically-acclaimed novel Netherland, which places cricket at the center of its New York-based story, prompts the question of whether, in the absence of serious academic work on recent American cricket, we may find something in a work of fiction to help us tackle the topic. The article suggests that we can.
“If It Doesn’t Play in Peoria…”
Authors: Bartges Ellyn L.
Published: December 2022

Charlotte Lewis died prematurely at age fifty-two. Lewis is not a household name in high school or intercollegiate basketball, yet she was a pioneer in many respects on the playground, in a high school gymnasium, a collegiate fieldhouse, the 1976 Olympics, and the Women’s Basketball League. Interviews with Lewis, her coaches, and her teammates provide the primary resources for this paper. As one of four African-American women on the inaugural women’s Olympic basketball team, as well as one of only seventy-six women to ever wear the Team USA basketball jersey, interest in Lewis should be more intense. Lewis deserves a louder, unified voice in how the history of women’s basketball in Illinois and the nation are remembered. Few have experienced the breadth of competition and the spectrum of success lived by Charlotte Lewis.
