The “Visegrad Inititative “VIS-À-VIS“ Open Balkan Inititative” in the process of European Integration
Authors:   Faculty of Law, University Goce Delcev, Stip, Galeva Jordanka
Published: February 2024

Following the collapse of the communist regimes, in Central European countries, the belief that collaborative efforts could facilitate both social transformation and European integration, served as a key motivation for establishing of the Visegrad Group (V4), comprising of Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland. In Southeastern Europe, given the war conflicts that occurred during the 1990s, in 1999, the EU Council initiated the Stabilization and Association Process (SAP) to encourage Western Balkans countries (WB) to cooperate among themselves and confirmed their eligibility for EU membership. After the V4 countries joined the EU, the Visegrad Declaration on cooperation in 2004 emphasized the idea of supporting the European integration of neighboring regions, including the Western Balkan region. From 2004 to the present day, the WB countries have applied for EU membership, and they have been granted EU candidate country status. In 2014 they became a part of the Berlin process (BP)initiative and for three of them – Albania, North Macedonia (N. Macedonia) and Serbia – accession negotiations with EU have already been opened. These three countries launched the Mini Schengen initiative in 2019, which was transformed into Open Balkan initiative (OB3) in 2021. Since that both Visegrad and Open Balkan in itiatives aim to enhance interstate cooperation and facilitate European integration process for their respective countries, the purpose of this paper is to consider the role of regional organizations and initiatives in accelerating the integration process, to examine whether the OB3 can draw valuable lessons from V4 experience and to elucidate how V4 supports the integration process of OB3.
Ročište pre odbacivanja tužbe (čl. 294, st. 2 ZPP) – Forma bez smisla ili smisao bez adekvatne forme –

In the legal doctrine and practice of the highest court in the country, there is a prevailing opinion that a hearing before the dismissal of the lawsuit realizes and protects the right to be heard. At the same time, the right to be heard is identified with the principle of adversary (audiatur et altera pars), that is, with the right of one party to respond to the requests, statements and proposals of the opponent party. Also, it is understood that the denial of this hearing represents an absolute substantial procedural defect from Art. 374 (2) point 7 of the Law on Civil Procedure (ZPP). However, at the hearing analysed here, the plaintiff does not respond to the legal argumentation of the opposing side, but to the legal reasoning of the court. This paper critically examines the content of the right to be heard, more precisely, the traditional understanding of this right. As a result of the analysis, the right to be heard is equated with the right to a hearing, which allows parties to respond to the procedural actions undertaken by their opponent (relationship: partyparty), but also to the court’s legal reasoning (relationship: courtparty), during the course of the hearing. Given that these two forms of the right to be heard do not serve to achieve the same goals, an interpretation of Art. 374 (2) point 7 ZPP is offered through teleological reduction. It implies that only denying a party to respond to the opponents’ actions and statements leads to an absolute substantial procedural defect. While, on the other hand, denying a party to express opinion regarding the legal reasoning of the court, represents a relative substantial procedural defect.

The stances of the legal theory, comparative law and jurisprudence do not concur on the nature of public procurement: The administrative law literature considers public procurement contracts to be administrative contracts, while civil law treats them as traditional civil or commercial contracts. To understand the nature of the relationship between public procurement entities and private companies that provide them with go ods and services, this essay examines the undefined systemic connections of the Serbian Public Procurement Act (PPA) with administrative and obligation law. The research results reveal that the PPA norms, although regulate the public law regime of the unequal relationship between procurement entities and bidders, do not place this relationship in the realm of administrative law because they enable only indirect, limited and exceptional application of the administrative norms. Norms of the PPA do not explicitly refer to obligation law. Still, its application as a lex generalis is inevitable for the comprehensive regulation of the precontractual and contractual relationship between the procurement entities and bidders. These findings suggest the PPA positioning as a special regime of obligation law, which cannot be rigidly classified into public or private law. Therefore, it is proposed to distinguish administrative decision-mak ing on the contract from its execution that is subject to the obligation law, and to restrict the superiority of procurement entity for the sake of fundamental values of civil law.

Published: February 2024

The Federal Constitution in its art. 1 exposes the foundations of the Federative Republic of Brazil, specifi cally in inc. III, reports on eradicating poverty and marginalization and reducing social and regional inequalities. This principle is of refl ex eff ectiveness, which the State must observe in the production of its norms and public policies. The scenario of Brazilian society is recognized for its persistent social inequality based on the concentration of income and wealth, racial and gender, lack of investments in health, education and infrastructure. Data from the World Inequality Lab¹, that is, the Laboratory of World Inequality, analyzing the years 2001 to 2021, points Brazil among the members of the G20 as being the second most unequal in the world, in which around 59% of the total national income is concentrated in the hands of the richest 10%, the poorest 50% earn an income about 29 times less than the richest 10%, and the latter hold almost 80% of the country’s private assets. In addition, tycoons, represented by the wealthiest 1% of the population, controlling practically half (48.9%) of national wealth in 2021. One of the most determining causes for these results is the tax burden, which taxes more on consumption, than on income and equity. The objective of this research is to answer whether the Brazilian Tax System has shown to follow the constitutional right to reduce social and regional inequalities in the country? The hypothesis is that only a tax reform that reverses unfair regressivity can regulate the tax system so that it is eff ectively constitutional. The research is based on studies and theories of bodies and specialists in the subject.

Published: February 2024

Abstract. Simulating the ice phenology of deep alpine lakes is important and challenging in coupled atmosphere-lake models. In this study, the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model, coupled with two lake models, the fresh-water lake model (WRF-FLake) and the default lake model (WRF-Lake), was applied to lake Nam Co, a typical deep alpine lake located in the centre of the Tibetan Plateau, to simulate its lake ice phenology. Due to the large errors in simulating lake ice phenology, related key parameters and parameterizations were improved in the coupled model based on observations and physics-based schemes. By improving the momentum, hydraulic and thermal roughness length parameterizations, both the WRF-FLake and the WRF-Lake models reasonably simulated the lake freeze-up date. By improving the key parameters associated with shortwave radiation transfer process when lake ice exists, both models generally simulated the lake break-up date well. Compared with WRF-Lake without improvements, the coupled model with both revised lake models significantly improved the simulation of lake ice phenology. However, there were still considerable errors in simulating the spatial patterns of freeze-up and break-up dates, implying that significant challenges in simulating the lake ice phenology still exist in representing some important model physics, including lake physics such as grid-scale water circulation, and atmospheric processes such as snowfall and surface snow dynamics. Therefore, this work can provide valuable new implications for advancing lake ice phenology simulations in coupled models and the improved model also has practical application prospects in weather and climate forecasts.
Towards a sector-specific CO/CO2 emission ratio: Satellite-based observation of CO release from steel production in Germany

Published: February 2024

Abstract. Global crude steel production is expected to continue to increase in the coming decades to meet the demands of the growing world population. Currently, the dominant steelmaking technology worldwide is the conventional highly CO2-intensive Blast Furnace – Basic Oxygen Furnace production route (also known as the Linz-Donawitz process) using iron ore as raw material and coke as a reducing agent. As a result, large quantities of special gases that are rich in carbon monoxide (CO) are by-products of the various stages of the steelmaking process. Given the challenges associated with satellite-based estimates of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions at the scale of emitting installations due to significant background levels, co-emitted CO may serve as a valuable indicator of the carbon footprint of steel plants. We show that regional CO release from steel production sites can be monitored from space using 5 years of measurements (2018–2022) from the TROPOspheric monitoring instrument (TROPOMI) on board the Sentinel-5 Precursor satellite benefiting from its relatively high spatial resolution and daily global coverage. We analyse all German steel plants with blast furnaces and basic oxygen furnaces and obtain associated CO emissions in the range of 50–400 kt yr-1 per site. A comparison with the respective CO2 emissions on the level of emitting installations available from emissions trading data of the European Union Emissions Trading System yields a linear relationship with a sector-specific CO/CO2 emission ratio for the analysed steelworks of 3.24 % [2.73–3.89; 1σ] suggesting the feasibility of using CO as a proxy for CO2 emissions from comparable steel production sites.
Future permafrost degradation under climate change in a headwater catchment of Central Siberia: quantitative assessment with a mechanistic modelling approach

Published: February 2024

Abstract. Permafrost thawing as a result of climate change has major consequences locally and globally for the biosphere as well as for human activities. The quantification of its extent and dynamics under different climate scenarios is needed to design local adaptation and mitigation measures and to better understand permafrost climate feedbacks. To this end, numerical simulation can be used to explore the response of soil thermo-hydric regimes to changes in climatic conditions. Mechanistic approaches minimize modelling assumptions by relying on the numerical resolution of continuum mechanics equations, but involve significant computational effort. In this work, the permaFoam solver is used along with high-performance computing resources to assess the impact of four climate scenarios of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project – Phase 6 (CMIP6) on permafrost dynamics within a pristine, forest-dominated watershed in the continuous permafrost zone. Using these century time-scale simulations, changes in soil temperature, soil moisture, active layer thickness and water fluxes are quantified, assuming no change in vegetation cover. The most severe scenario (SSP5-8.5) suggests a dramatic increase in both active layer thickness and annual evapotranspiration, with maximum values on the watershed reached in 2100 of +46 % and +29 % respectively. For the active layer thickness, in current climatic conditions it would correspond to a 560 km southward shift. Moreover, in this scenario thermal equilibrium of near-surface permafrost with the new climatic conditions would not be reached in 2100, suggesting a further thawing of permafrost even in case of halting the climate change.

Abstract. Magnetometer measurements are one of the critical components necessary to improve our understanding of the intricate physical processes coupling mass, momentum, and energy within near-Earth space and throughout our solar system. However, these measurements are often contaminated by stray magnetic fields from the spacecraft hosting the magnetic field sensors, and the data often requires the application of interference mitigation algorithms prior to scientific use. Rigorous numerical validation of these techniques can be challenging when they are applied to in-situ spaceflight data, as a ground truth for the local magnetic field is often unavailable. This manuscript introduces and details the generation of an open-source dataset designed to facilitate the assessment of interference mitigation techniques for magnetic field data collected during spaceflight missions. The dataset contains over 100 hours of magnetic field data comprising mixtures of near-DC trends, physically-synthesized interference, and pseudo-geophysical phenomena. These constituent source signals have been independently captured by four synchronized magnetometers sampling at high cadence and combined into 30-minute intervals of data representative of events and interference seen in historic missions. The physical location of the four magnetometers relative to the interference sources enables researchers to test their interference mitigation algorithms with various magnetometer suite configurations, and the dataset also provides a ground truth for the underlying interference signals, enabling rigorous quantification of the results of past, present, and future interference mitigation efforts.
Future changes in North Atlantic winter cyclones in CESM-LE – Part 2: A Lagrangian analysis
Authors: Dolores-Tesillos Edgar , Pfahl Stephan
Published: February 2024

Abstract. Future changes in extratropical cyclone structure and dynamics may lead to important impacts but are not yet fully understood. In the first part of this study, we have applied a composite approach together with potential vorticity (PV) inversion to study such changes in the dynamics of North Atlantic cyclones. Here, this is complemented with the help of a Lagrangian perspective, making use of air parcel trajectories to investigate the causes of altered PV anomalies as well as the role that cyclone airstreams play in shaping these changes. Intense cyclones in the extended winter seasons of two periods, 1990–2000 and 2091–2100, are studied in Community Earth System Model Large Ensemble (CESM-LE) simulations, and backward trajectories are calculated from the cyclone area as a basis to construct cyclone-centered composites of Lagrangian tendencies and their projected future changes. Our results show that diabatic processes on a timescale of 24 h shape the cyclones' low-level PV distribution and corroborate that the increasing moisture content along with enhanced ascent in warm conveyor belts leads to amplified latent heat release and larger low- and mid-level PV anomalies near the cyclone center in a warmer climate. In contrast, projected upper-level PV changes are due to a combination of several processes. These processes include cloud diabatic PV changes, anomalous PV advection, and likely also radiative PV generation in the lower stratosphere above the cyclone center. For instance, enhanced poleward advection is the primary reason for a projected decrease in upper-level PV anomalies south of the cyclone center. Warm conveyor belt outflow regions are projected to shift upward, but there is not robust change in the associated upper-level PV anomalies due to compensation between enhanced low-level PV generation and upper-level PV destruction. In summary, our two-part study points to future changes in the relative importance of different processes for the dynamics of intense North Atlantic cyclones in a warming climate, with important consequences for the near-surface wind pattern. In particular, a larger role of cloud diabatic processes is projected, affecting the cyclones through PV production in the lower troposphere. The role of other mechanisms, in particular radiative changes near the tropopause, should be investigated in more detail in future studies.
Linking Gulf Stream air–sea interactions to the exceptional blocking episode in February 2019: a Lagrangian perspective

Abstract. The development of atmospheric blocks over the North Atlantic–European region can lead to extreme weather events like heat waves or cold air outbreaks. Despite their potential severe impact on surface weather, the correct prediction of blocking lifecycles remains a key challenge in current numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. Increasing evidence suggests that latent heat release in cyclones, the advection of cold air (cold air outbreaks, CAOs) from the Arctic over the North Atlantic, and associated air–sea interactions over the Gulf Stream are key processes contributing to the onset, maintenance, and persistence of such flow regimes. To better understand the mechanism connecting air–sea interactions over the Gulf Stream with changes in the large-scale flow, we focus on an episode between 20 and 27 February 2019, when a quasi-stationary upper-level ridge was established over western Europe accompanied by an intensified storm track in the northwestern North Atlantic. During that time, a record-breaking winter warm spell occurred over western Europe bringing temperatures above 20 ∘C to the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and northern France. The event was preceded and accompanied by the development of several rapidly intensifying cyclones that originated in the Gulf Stream region and traversed the North Atlantic. To explore the mechanistic linkage between the formation of this block and air–sea interactions over the Gulf Stream, we adopt a Lagrangian perspective, using kinematic trajectories. This allows us to study the pathways and transformations of air masses that form the upper-level potential vorticity anomaly and interact with the ocean front. We establish that more than one-fifth of these air masses interact with the Gulf Stream in the lower troposphere, experiencing intense heating and moistening over the region due to the frequent occurrence of CAOs behind the cold front of the cyclones. Trajectories moistened by the advection of cold air over a warm ocean by one cyclone later ascend into the upper troposphere with the ascending airstream of a subsequent cyclone, fueled by the strong surface fluxes. These findings highlight the importance of CAOs in the Gulf Stream region, indicating that their intense coupling between the ocean and atmosphere plays a role in block development. Additionally, they provide a mechanistic pathway linking air–sea interactions in the lower troposphere and the upper-level flow.

In the healthcare sector, ensuring the safety and legitimacy of drugs is a top priority. Counterfeit pharmaceuticals are a major problem for the industry, as they not only cause financial losses but also endanger public health and safety. These fake medications are hazardous or inefficient, putting lives at risk. The dissemination of fake medications has not been stopped by the use of conventional techniques for confirming drug legitimacy. This project presents a novel way to improve the security and authenticity of pharmaceutical purchases by utilizing blockchain technology. The key focus of this innovative project is to devise a blockchain-based secure system that will enable drug producers, distributors, and consumers to safely check the legitimacy of pharmaceuticals and track their provenance throughout the supply chain. The utilization of decentralized and immutable properties of blockchain technology makes it possible to create a transparent and impenetrable platform for documenting and confirming drug-related transactions. The blockchain will securely store every stage of the pharmaceutical supply chain, from production to retail, establishing a transparently traceable framework. Implementing a secure blockchain-based system for drug authentication helps effectively build trust within the pharmaceutical supply chain, protect consumers from counterfeit drugs, and make a positive impact on the overall improvement of public health. The transparency and security offered by blockchain technology in drug transactions have the potential to revolutionize the pharmaceutical industry, fostering a more reliable environment for drug procurement and distribution.
