Long-term dynamics and destruction of marsh vegetation in the Kolokolkova Bay of the Barents Sea
Authors: Lavrinenko I. A. , Lavrinenko O. V. , Dobrynin D. V.
Published: October 2019

The satellite images show that the area of marshes in the Kolokolkova bay was notstable during the period from 1973 up to 2011. Until 2010 it varied from 357 to 636 ha. After a severe storm happened on July 24–25, 2010 the total area of marshes was reduced up to 43–50 ha. The mean value of NDVI for studied marshes, reflecting the green biomass, varied from 0.13 to 0.32 before the storm in 2010, after the storm the NDVI decreased to 0.10, in 2011 — 0.03. A comparative analysis of species composition and structure of plant communities described in 2002 and 2011, allowed to evaluate the vegetation changes of marshes of the different topographic levels. They are fol­lowing: a total destruction of plant communities of the ass. Puccinellietum phryganodis and ass. Caricetum subspathaceae on low and middle marches; increasing role of halophytic species in plant communities of the ass. Caricetum glareosae vic. Calamagrostis deschampsioides subass. typicum on middle marches; some changes in species composition and structure of plant communities of the ass. Caricetum glareosae vic. Calamagrostis deschampsioides subass. festucetosum rubrae on high marches and ass. Parnassio palustris–Salicetum reptantis in transition zone between marches and tundra without changes of their syntaxonomy; a death of moss cover in plant communities of the ass. Caricetum mackenziei var. Warnstorfia exannulata on brackish coastal bogs. The possible reasons of dramatic vegetation dynamics are discussed. The dating of the storm makes it possible to observe the directions and rates of the succession of marches vegetation.

AGROECOLOGY COMMUNITY AND ECOLOGY OF KNOWLEDGE: A TRAINING EXPERIENCE BASED ON THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN QUILOMBO, PASTORAL LAND COMMISSION AND UNIVERSITY
Authors: Ramos Júnior Dernival Venâncio
Published: October 2019

The formation of the Agroecological Community among NEUZA-UFT, the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT), and the Quilombo Grotão was conceived as a gnoseological situation and for that, it is a formative moment based on the ecology of knowledge. It is coordinated by Pedro Ribeiro of the NEUZA-UFT/CPT team, the Pastoral Agent of the Pastoral Land Commission (CPT) and by Raimundo Cantuario Camilo dos Reis, quilombola leadership of the Grotão Community. It had the participation of professors and students from the Federal University of Tocantins, pastoral workers and young quilombolas. The process of formation of the Community began there, starting from the articulation of different subjects, university students, pastoral and community agents around the discussion, promotion and practice of the agroecological space-time.
Perceptual Proxies of Visual Comparison
Authors: Jardine Nicole , Ondov Brian , Elmqvist Niklas , Franconeri Steven
Published: October 2019

Perceptual tasks in visualizations often involve comparisons. Of two sets of values depicted in two charts, which set had values that were the highest overall? Which had the widest range? Prior empirical work found that the performance on different visual comparison tasks (e.g., “biggest delta”, “biggest correlation”) varied widely across different combinations of marks and spatial arrangements. In this paper, we expand upon these combinations in an empirical evaluation of two new comparison tasks: the“biggest mean” and “biggest range” between two sets of values. We used a staircase procedure to titrate the difficulty of the data comparison to assess which arrangements produced the most precise comparisons for each task. We find visual comparisons of biggest mean and biggest range are supported by some chart arrangements more than others, and that this pattern is substantially different from the pattern for other tasks. To synthesize these dissonant findings, we argue that we must understand which features of a visualization are actually used by the human visual system to solve a given task. We call these perceptual proxies. For example, when comparing the means of two bar charts, the visual system might use a “Mean length” proxy that isolates the actual lengths of the bars and then constructs a true average across these lengths. Alternatively, it might use a “Hull Area” proxy that perceives an implied hull bounded by the bars of each chart and then compares the areas of these hulls. We propose a series of potential proxies across different tasks, marks, and spatial arrangements. Simple models of these proxies can be empirically evaluated for their explanatory power by matching their performance to human performance across these marks, arrangements, and tasks. We use this process to highlight candidates for perceptual proxies that might scale more broadly to explain performance in visual comparison.

Published: October 2019

Ruang terbuka hijau (RTH) sebagai ameliorasi iklim penting keberadaannya dalam suatu kota terutama kota yang saat ini mengalami peningkatan penduduk yang signifikan seperti Kota Tasikmalaya. Peningkatan penduduk dapat menyebabkan turunnya kualitas lingkungan. Keberadaan RTH publik sangat penting untuk memberikan kawasan rekreasi yang nyaman namun tiga RTH publik yang menjadi pusat rekreasi masyarakat Kota Tasikmalaya belum memberikan kenyamanan thermal dan estetika yang optimal menurut sebagian masyarakat. Tujuan penelitian yaitu mengidentifikasi jenis dan fungsi tanaman, mengevaluasi fungsi ekologis dan estetika RTH, dan menyusun rekomendasi perbaikan penataan tanaman untuk RTH. Penelitian ini dilakukan di tiga RTH, di antaranya Alun-alun, Taman Kota, danKompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha Tasikmalaya. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan yaitu inventarisasi, analisis data inventarisasi dengan Key Performance Index (KPI); Thermal Humidity Index (THI); Scenic Beauty Estimation (SBE); deskriptif, serta menyusun rekomendasi perbaikan penataan tanaman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha memiliki jenis dan jumlah tanaman terbanyak. Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha menjadi RTH terbaik dalam fungsi modifikasi suhu, kontrol kelembaban, dan peredam kebisingan sementara Taman Kota menjadi RTH terbaik dalam penahan angin dibandingkan dengan dua RTH lainnya. Ketiga RTH telah terkualifikasi sebagai area nyaman berdasarkan standar kenyamanan THI dan baku mutu tingkat kebisingan kawasan rekreasi. Ketiga RTH mampu menurunkan suhu rata-rata sebesar 1,4 ˚C, meningkatkan kelembaban rata-rata sebesar 8%, serta meredam kebisingan rata-rata sebesar 4.4 dB. Taman Kota merupakan RTH dengan kualitas estetika lanskap terbaik dan Kompleks Olahraga Wiradadaha merupakan RTH dengan kualitas estetika lanskap terburuk. Pengunjung cukup puas dengan kondisi RTH saat ini tapi akan lebih baik bila ditambahkan tanaman peneduh khususnya untuk Alun-alun dan Taman Kota, penambahan tanaman estetika, dan fasilitas yang memadai. Alun-alun dan Taman Kota membutuhkan lebih banyak tanaman peneduh. Ketiga RTH perlu penambahan tanaman estetika untuk meningkatkan estetika lanskap. Ketiga RTH juga perlu penataan komposisi dan tata letak elemen lanskap yang lebih baik.

Published: October 2019

Cite as Michael Veale, ‘A Critical Take on the Policy Recommendations of the EU High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence’ (2020) __ European Journal of Risk Regulation __. doi:10/ggjdjsThe European Commission recently published the policy recommendations of its ‘High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence’: a heavily anticipated document, particularly in the context of the stated ambition of the new Commission President to regulate in that area. This essay argues that these recommendations have significant deficits in a range of areas. It analyses a selection of the Group’s proposals in context of the governance of artificial intelligence more broadly, focussing on issues of framing, representation and expertise, and on the lack of acknowledgement of key issues of power and infrastructure underpinning modern information economies and practices of optimisation.
Temporal associations between civic action and character strengths: A daily diary study
Authors: Oosterhoff Benjamin , Whillock Summer , Sanders Courtney , Poppler Ashleigh
Published: October 2019

Positive youth development (PYD) models propose that character is an important antecedent to civic action, yet few studies have examined temporal links between character strengths and civic behavior. Using a daily diary design, this study tests temporal associations between character and civic behavior during the 2018 US midterm elections. Participants (N=235, Mage=19.43) completed seven daily assessments of three character strengths (purpose, future-mindedness, gratitude) and four types of civic behavior (volunteering/helping behavior, environmentalism, standard political behavior, social movement behavior). There were between-person weekly effects and within-person daily effects for most character strengths, volunteering/helping behavior, and environmentalism. Higher daily purpose was associated with greater daily standard political and social movement involvement. Greater social movement involvement predicted higher next-day purpose and future-mindedness. Greater volunteering/helping behavior predicted higher next-day future-mindedness. Higher purpose predicted greater next-day standard political and social movement involvement. Findings support PYD models by documenting nuanced associations between character and civic action.
Defaultable Derivative Pricing Model
Authors: Xiao Tim
Published: October 2019

This article presents a comprehensive framework for valuing financial instruments subject to credit risk. In particular, we focus on the impact of default dependence on asset pricing, as correlated default risk is one of the most pervasive threats in financial markets. We bring the concept of comvariance into the area of credit risk modeling to capture the statistical relationship among three or more random variables. Furthermore, we define a new statistics, comrelation, as a scaled version of comvariance. Accounting for default correlations and comrelations becomes important in determining CDS premia, especially during the credit crisis. We find that the default comvariance/comrelation has substantial effects on the asset pricing and risk management, which have never been documented. https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/u546r/download

Authors: Asquel Cadena Víctor Hugo , Espín Beltrán Mayra Lorena , Soto Viera Paola Susana , Ganchala Padilla Marcia Karina
Published: October 2019

Introducción: Los tumores apendiculares tienen una baja incidencia y constituyen un pequeño grupo dentro de la patología de este órgano, en el que predominan ampliamente los procesos inflamatorios. Se diagnostica un tumor apendicular primario en 0.9 a 0.14% de las apendicectomías. Entre los tumores benignos los más frecuentes son el cistodenoma mucinoso; el tumor mucoso, que es el más común del apéndice y se asocia con cistodenomas de ovario y tumores colónicos. Otro tumor benigno es el mucocele simple.

Objetivo: Describir un caso clínico enfocado en el mucocele apendicular, como causa infrecuente de abdomen agudo.

Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo, presentación de caso clínico en el Hospital Básico “IESS Latacunga”, caso que fue tratado en el Servicio de Cirugía General del hospital.  

Resultados: Paciente de 59 años que por cuadro de dolor abdominal de 4 días de evolución, de localización difusa, 15 horas antes de su ingreso el dolor se localiza en fosa iliaca derecha, a tipo cólico, de moderada intensidad, se acompañaba de nauseas que llegan al vómito en dos ocasiones, alza térmica y anorexia. Al examen físico: signos vitales dentro de parámetros normales, abdomen tenso, depresible, doloroso a la palpación superficial y profunda en fosa iliaca derecha, con presencia de masa de aproximadamente 7 cm x 5 cm de diámetro, puntos apendiculares positivos. Los exámenes de laboratorio mostraron: leucocitosis más neutrofilia. Ecografía abdominal: apéndice cecal no visible, no se observa líquido libre en cavidad abdominal.

Se realizó laparotomía exploratoria, donde se identificó masa compleja conformada por ciego, epiplón mayor íleon terminal y un apéndice quístico de aproximadamente 10 cm de diámetro mayor; para lo cual se realizó hemicolectomia derecha más íleo transverso anastomosis termino terminal. Paciente con evolución favorable, es dada de alta al quinto día. El estudio anatomopatológico dio como resultado una Neoplasia quística mucinosa de bajo grado (cistodenoma mucinoso) y adenoma tubular con displasia de bajo grado.

Conclusiones: El mucocele apendicular es el tumor benigno más común del apéndice. El diagnóstico definitivo se lo realiza posterior a intervención quirúrgica, como un hallazgo y con el reporte del histopatológico como en el caso descrito.  Los estudios de imagen son de gran utilidad para su identificación.; debe considerarse en el diagnóstico diferencial de una masa pélvica derecha, porque clínica y radiológicamente es fácil de confundir con una apendicitis complicada

Published: October 2019

Introducción: La trisomía 18 (Síndrome de Edwards), caracterizado por la presencia de un cromosoma adicional en el par 18, es un síndrome relativamente común que afecta aproximadamente a 1 de cada 6.000 nacimientos vivos, es tres veces más frecuente en mujeres que hombres, es una entidad patológica con un mal pronóstico vital.

Objetivo: Describir un caso clínico de Trisomía 18 con una evolución desfavorable a pesar de un manejo clínico inicial oportuno a consecuencia de los defectos cardiacos detectados.

Material y Métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo, presentación de caso clínico.

Resultados: Se describe la evolución clínica de una recién nacida con rasgos fenotípicos de trisomía 18 confirmada por estudio cromosómico.  Siendo una patología cromosómica con múltiples malformaciones asociadas es importante conocerla y tenerlo presente en el diagnóstico diferencial, su detección oportuna nos permitió brindar un adecuado manejo clínico inicial, el mismo que fue insuficiente por la patología cardiaca asociada que produjo un desenlace fatal. La información a los padres con veracidad y simplicidad mejoró su actitud parental frente a la patología de la niña.

Conclusión: La detección de defectos congénitos severos en un recién nacido transforma la alegría de su nacimiento en una situación de angustia y tristeza tanto para los padres como para el personal médico. Ante la presencia de defectos congénitos graves asociados, una vez estabilizado el paciente se debe procurar su transferencia a un nivel de atención de mayor complejidad. Dialogar, informar y brindar soporte moral a los padres constituye el primer acto terapéutico de gran significado ético que muchas veces va a ser determinante de la actitud de los padres frente al niño

Spiritual priorities of Orthodox business ethics: the contemporary Ukrainian context
Authors: Marchenko O.V.
Published: October 2019

The present state of our spirituality is a consequence of the influences of particular circumstances of life. Undoubtedly, the general changes in the social, political and economic orientations of society significantly influence the nature of the processes taking place in the spiritual sphere. The transition to the rails of market reforms, the affirmation of the principle of pragmatism as a kind of measure of the effectiveness of human life, the priority of economic values ​​over others, including spiritual values, leads to a deepening crisis of spirituality, crisis of man. And in this connection M. Berdyaev's words appearing to warn him against uncritical perception of the values ​​of Western civilization, which, incidentally, is quite characteristic of modern Ukrainian society, appear to be quite correct: the loss of the spiritual center. " And further: “The autonomy of economic life led to its dominance over the entire life of human communities. Mammonism has become the defining force of the age. ”

Published: October 2019

In the context of the development of Kyivan Christianity, the spiritual tradition of East and West was the adoption of the Cyril and Methodius heritage. By that time, the Slavic alphabet had already been created, and some liturgical and legal texts, including the Gospel, the Apostle, the Psalter, the Prayer, the Judgment of the People, and others, had been translated into the Slavic language. The activity of Cyril and Methodius was of general Slavic importance.

Published: October 2019

In the coverage of the problems of war and peace in Catholicism, researchers (V. Brudzinski, L. Velikovich, M. Duboust, etc.) sometimes omit the regional component of their manifestation. We are talking about local traditions in Catholicism, which have their own specific approach to solving this problem and sometimes may differ significantly from the "conventional" position. The study of this field is necessary because in the delineated field the position of those theologians who were on the "outskirts" of Catholicism in the intercultural dialogue (or collision, according to S. Huntington), on the one hand, led to a deviation from the humanistic orientation about Catholicism. the war. An example would be the concept of a "holy war" of the Crusades, which had the anti-Islamic rhetoric generated not only in the West but also in the East.

Theological-legal concept of redemption in the mirror of Orthodox-theological criticism at the end of XIX - early XX centuries
Authors: Pankov G.D.
Published: October 2019

Theology can be considered a specific culture of self-expression, self-determination and self-justification of certain denominations. Christianity defines itself as the "religion of atonement" or the "religion of the Cross", as evidenced by the words of the apostle Paul: "We preach the crucified Christ." The idea of ​​redemption is a central idea without which it is impossible to understand the Christian tradition. Therefore, for theology, conceptualizing the idea of ​​atonement means directing intellectual efforts to identify and justify the essential side of Christianity. For academic religious studies, the study of the theological concept of redemption has a dual meaning: first, it allows to understand the essential aspect of the Christian religion, and secondly, to understand the theological culture of thinking.
The figure of Jesus Christ in the context of religious studies
Authors: Pavlenko Pavlo Yuriyovych
Published: October 2019

The study of the origins of the Christian religion has always been one of the most difficult problems. This is due, first of all, to the almost complete absence of specific historical evidence of early Christianity and of its founder, which in turn led to the emergence of the so-called "mythological theory" according to which Christianity emerged "spontaneously" in Palestine and is unknown in any way. F. Engels, who borrowed from Bruno Bauer the date of writing the Book of the Annunciation of John the Theologian, the last book of the New Testament canon, played a significant role in the formation of such views. In accepting this date, understanding of Christianity as a "spontaneous" phenomenon, initially representing the movement of the underprivileged masses of the Roman Empire, played a role. In this sense, any "spontaneity" automatically excluded the historicity of virtually all evangelical characters (according to Engels, all of them are nothing but mythological images). If neither Jesus nor his apostles existed, then the gospel narrative of Christ evolved from the myth of Christ as God to the myth of Jesus as God-man.

Políticas de gestión escolar desde una perspectiva comparada: la "excepción ibérica"
Authors: Bolívar Botia Antonio
Published: October 2019

Se realiza una revisión de las políticas de gestión escolar ―de modo comparado― con el ámbito anglosajón en general y con Portugal en particular. Describiendo los déficits y demandas, se defiende que las políticas de gestión escolar en España requieren un cambio de modelo de regulación: de una gestión vertical-administrativista a otro modo de gobernanza horizontal y participativo basado en la autonomía, el compromiso y la responsabilidad por los resultados, para generar un nuevo modo de gestionar las políticas públicas. Una nueva gobernanza de la educación requiere nuevos diseños organizativos de las escuelas.
Del pacto quimérico a compromisos razonables
Authors: Fernández Enguita Mariano
Published: October 2019

Se discute por qué no ha sido posible, hasta hoy, el frecuentemente invocado pacto sobre la educación. Se analizan pactos de Estado fallidos, los pactos autonómicos existentes, los modelos de pacto propuestos y los obstáculos a su consecución. El autor propone abandonar la idea de un pacto centrado en principios o políticas compartidas a favor de un compromiso sobre las diferencias persistentes en torno a las múltiples dimensiones y líneas de fractura que atraviesan la educación, así como desagregarlo en un conjunto de compromisos más precisos en torno a cada una de ellas.
Examination of moisture content variation within an operational wet deck

Many forest products companies in the southeastern United States store large volumes of roundwood under wet storage. Log quality depends on maintaining a high and constant wood moisture content; however, limited knowledge exists regarding moisture variation within individual logs, and within wet decks as a whole, making it impossible to recommend appropriate water application strategies. To better understand moisture variation within a wet deck, time domain reflectometry (TDR) was used to monitor the moisture variation of 30 southern pine logs over an 11-week period for a wet deck at the International Paper McBean woodyard. Three 125 mm long TDR probes were inserted into each log (before the deck was built) at 3, 4.5, and 7.5 m from the butt. The position of each log within the stack was also recorded. Mixed-effects analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to examine moisture variation over the study period. Moisture content varied within the log, while position within the stack was generally not significant. The performance of the TDR probes was consistent throughout the study, indicating that they would be suitable for long term (e.g., 12 months) monitoring.
Characterization of hard scale formed in the kraft mill green liquor processing equipment
Authors: ZAKIR TASNUVA , TRAN HONGHI , PAPANGELAKIS VLADIMIROS G.
Published: October 2019

Scaling, the formation of hard deposits, in green liquor handling systems is a persistent problem in many kraft pulp mills. Scaling is commonly believed to be a result of pirssonite (Na2CO3·CaCO3·2H2O) formation when the green liquor total titrateable alkali (TTA) is high. In this study, we characterized 12 scale samples obtained from 10 kraft pulp mills using various analytical methods, including TGA/DSC (thermogravimetric analysis/differential scanning calorimetry), XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectrometry), XRD (X-ray diffraction spectrometry), SEM (scanning electron microscopy), and EMPA (electron microprobe analyzer). The analysis identified only four of these samples as pirssonite; the remaining consisted mostly of calcite (CaCO3). The reason for the predominant presence of calcite in the majority of the scale samples is not known. It may be a result of selective dissolution of sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) from the pirssonite scale during the time when the green liquor total TTA was low, leaving the insoluble CaCO3 behind.
Catalysis-a potential alternative to kraft pulping
Authors: RUDIE ALAN W. , HART PETER W.
Published: October 2019

A thorough analysis of the kraft pulping process makes it obvious why it has dominated for over a century as an industrial process with no replacement in sight. It uses low-cost raw materials; collects and regenerates over 90% of the chemicals needed in the process; and is indifferent to wood raw material and good at preserving the cellulose portion of the wood, the part that provides strong fibers. Although the process is odiferous, extremely capital intensive, and very poor at preserving hemicellulose yield, no alternatives have been able to replace it for process cost and product quality. There is a misconception that no new pulping processes have been discovered since the discovery of kraft pulping. Besides the minor adjustments—such as anthraquinone or polysulfide— chlorine, chlorite, and peracetic acid holopulping were discovered and evaluated decades ago. Various solvent pulping methods were discovered and evaluated in the 1980s and 1990s. This work continues with ionic solvents, deep eutectic solvents, and most recently protic ionic liquids. Where all these alternative processes fail is process cost. The chemicals are too expensive and too difficult to recover for use in a commercial process to produce wood pulp. The premise of this review is that the only way to achieve better performance and lower cost than the existing kraft pulping process will be a process using a catalyst to control and direct the reactions. With a high enough reaction rate and a sufficiently high number of turnovers, even an expensive catalyst can still be low cost. We reviewed the literature of existing pulping and delignification catalysts and propose research areas of interest for more intensive experimental efforts.
Could biomass-fueled boilers be operated at higher steam temperatures? Part 2: Field tests of candidate superheater alloys
Authors: KEISER JAMES R. , SHARP W.B.A. SANDY , SINGBEIL DOUGLAS L.
Published: October 2019

Operating superheater tubes of biomass-fired boilers at considerably higher temperatures than can be tolerated by commonly used structural materials could improve boiler efficiency. However, corrosion of the superheater tubes promoted by interaction with the relatively low melting point deposits that accumulate on the
tubes becomes a major issue. The objective of this study was to use field exposures to determine if there are materials acceptable for use as superheater tubes that can operate at temperatures at least 100 Celsius degrees above the current maximum superheater temperature.
Corrosion probes containing multiple specimens of nine different alloys were exposed for at least 2000 h in the superheater area of three biomass boilers where the deposits were determined to be enriched in potassium or chlorine. Similar specimens were also exposed in a boiler co-firing coal and wood. For the probes, specimen temperatures ranged from a low of less than 400°C to temperatures above 600°C for all but one case. Following exposure, a section was taken from each specimen and examined using light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Results of the examination of these specimens showed some alloys performed considerably better than others, but the corrosion resistance could not be related to chromium or molybdenum content of the alloys.
