Investigating the Drivers of Total Suspended Sediment Regime in the Senegal River Basin Using Landsat 8 Satellite Images
Authors: Faye Cheikh , Grippa Manuela , Kergoat Laurent , Robert Elodie 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
Because total suspended sediments (TSS) influence the penetration of light into the water column and are likely to carry pollutants and nutrients, their study is essential for understanding the functioning of African river ecosystems. If the estimation of solid transport is important in the context of hydro-agricultural developments, its quantification often poses a problem. In addition, in situ data for these areas are rare and, as a result, the environmental factors responsible for the variability of TSS can hardly be understood. This work aims to evaluate the spatiotemporal variability of TSS in the surface waters of the Senegal River using satellite data over the 2014-2018 period. The spatio-temporal dynamics of TSS is reconstructed using a relationship established on several West African sites between in situ data from TSS and satellite reflectances from Landsat 8. These data allow analyzing the relationship between TSS and factors such as rainfall and discharge. We found that the TSS peaks in Bakel coincide with the arrival of the first rains and are followed by peaks in discharge with a lag of 2 months. A time lag between TSS and discharge peaks is also observed on its tributaries like the River Falémé. Concerning the spatial variability, TSS generally increase from the river upstream to the downstream and decrease in the Senegal delta after the Diama dam. The analysis of the TSS upstream and downstream of the Manantali dam, in the upstream area, confirms the relatively low sediment deposits in the dam lake.

Abstract
In this paper, we continue studying the properties of weak soft axioms discussed and studied in [8]. We initiate and explore soft semi-R
0 spaces at soft point in terms of soft semi-open sets and study its characterizations and properties. It is interesting to mention that this soft contains the soft semi-closure of each of its soft point singletons. We also define soft semi-R
1 spaces at soft point and discuss some of its characterizations.
Johann George Schreiber’s Atlas selectus: editions and dating
Authors: Paprotny Zbigniew 
Published: June 2020

Abstract
The author of this paper sets out to identify and date the individual editions of Atlas selectus that were published in Leipzig by Johann George Schreiber and his heirs. The paper is based on the analysis of maps and printed registers from 27 unique editions of the atlas. After a brief summary of Schreiber’s non-cartographic activity, the atlas is presented and dating of its eight editions is proposed, from 1741 to the end of the 18th century. Some special editions of the atlas are also identified and briefly described. The estimated production rate of maps in Schreiber’s workshop is compared with earlier research. Finally, a few misconceptions concerning Schreiber and his cartography are clarified.
Critical Discourse Analysis of Trump Across Time
Authors: Gil-Bonilla John Fredy 
Published: June 2020

Summary
This study explores the discourse of Trump as a businessman and as a president regarding the topic of immigration. Data for this research were gathered from four speeches and four interviews delivered by Trump in the eighties-nineties and four speeches and four interviews after being elected president. The analysis focuses on the way Trump represents US (ingroup) versus THEM (outgroup) at the local semantic level through the use of pronouns and implicatures and, at the local form through the use of syntax, that is, the formal relationship between clauses and sentences. In particular, I want to shed light on the following research questions: (1) How does Donald Trump represent the topic of immigration as a businessman? (2) How does Donald Trump represent the topic of immigration as a president? On the basis of the results of this research, it can be concluded that the period in which the discourse was uttered seems to have a strong bearing on the discursive strategies employed by Trump. It should be also pointed out that nowadays, the linguistic analysis of Trump’s discourses area touchstone issue in political and social affairs. This paper contributes to this volume offering insights regarding the analysis of political discourse. More specifically, research on political discourse is considered as a branch within social science.
Integration of Creativity-Developing Activities in Foreign Language Learning: Students’ Attitude
Authors: Dulksnienė Liudmila , Mačianskienė Nemira 
Published: June 2020

Summary
The increasing significance of science and more intensive cooperation with foreign partners have created demands for plurilingual specialists, capable of providing solid research-based solutions, able to read the most advanced professional literature in a foreign language, participate in international conferences with foreign partners, negotiate and cooperate in scientific and subject-oriented activity while freely communicating in several foreign languages. However, in the case of specialized higher education institutions, such as medical or agricultural universities, foreign language learning is often oriented to the learning of occupational terminology; whereas acquisition of plurilingual communicative competence is much more than linguistic competence, it is a multifaceted competence and its acquisition can be enhanced by integrating creativity-developing activities into the program curricula. The aim of the study was to reveal the students’ attitude towards the integration of creativity development when studying foreign languages at a higher education institution. The generalized results of the study suggest that even though students considered linguistic competence (vocabulary and grammar) to be most important in language learning, yet they valued the acquisition of socio-cultural competence as important in communicating cross-culturally. The students’ attitude to the application of the elements of art in foreign language classes was positive, as these elements increased their interest and motivation in learning; integration of drawing and creation activities facilitated communication; the assignments became motivating and useful when communicating on intercultural topics. The students also positively evaluated the teacher’s work, the teacher’s assistance and positive approach to the evaluation of application of the elements of art by the students, which was the key element in the success of such classes. The importance of stress-free environment was singled out as a prerequisite for creativity expression and communication in a foreign language class.

Summary
There is no denying that fact that migration is a sensitive economic, political and social issue, which European institutions together with researchers and policy makers have been working on trying to create the cohesion between migrant and host communities. It has been widely recognized that attitudes towards migrants tend to be more positive when migrants have an opportunity to reveal their linguistic and cultural diversity to non-migrants. Researchers claim that local governments and municipalities “must be part of a framework of multi-level governance” for migrants’ integration (OECD, 2017). The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development highly recognizes the positive contribution of migrants, who deserve to live in a “just, equitable, tolerant, open and socially inclusive world” (2030 Agenda, 2015). Existing research has acknowledged that migrants make low use of local services, such as police, hospitals, educational institutions or leisure facilities due to language barriers and uncertainty on rules of engagement (Sime & Fox, 2014), cultural barriers and issues of trust in services (Alpers, 2016) or social exclusion (Arai, 2006). In order to develop insight into the realities of integration and social cohesion between migrant and host communities in Great Britain, in 2019 this study used a survey to explore how trust and meaningful interaction between all sections of the community could be created by providing social and educational activities for migrant and host communities in Boston, the UK. Furthermore, the research aimed to answer the question whether learning about another culture could increase understanding of how one’s own culture shapes the perceptions of oneself, of the world and of our relationship with others. The research sample was a group of 18 adults of non-migrant / British communities and a group of 15 adults of migrant communities / ESOL students who were attending the language and culture sessions with professional bilingual teachers. The first research sample, for which Lithuanian, Polish and Russian language and culture workshops were delivered, was carefully chosen to represent the native residents dealing with new arrival communities in their daily lives. The interactive workshops on the English language and British culture were delivered to the second focus group, ESOL students. All members of the focus groups expressed their primary wish to learn basic skills in the target language and improve their communication within the local area avoiding social tensions, cultural and linguistic misunderstandings. To explore the needs, experiences and attitudes of both migrant and host communities, a quantitative research methodology was applied, and short semi-structured interviews were conducted.
The Value of Plurilingualism or What Factors Affect the Development of Plurilingual Competences
Authors: Bijeikienė Vilma , Meškauskienė Almantė 
Published: June 2020

Summary
It is hardly possible to find a person who has never been faced with a challenge of learning another language. If asked, some would share their from-miserable-to-jubilant experiences of language learning at school, others would disclose the nail-biting moments of despair when a career chance just slipped from their hands due to the lack of the required language competences, whereas many would question if there is the best age to start learning a new language and if it should necessarily be one’s childhood. Having considered such popular queries as above, the present article has come to a conclusion that the early initial age of learning another language, while undeniably adds to the success of gaining good communicative competences and generates plenty of other benefits, does not deprive a person of a possibility to master a language in a mature age. Learning a language in adulthood, nevertheless, is more sensitive to the motivational and methodological decisions, but the benefits reaped from active plurilingual practices in the elderly age prove to be highly valuable. From a methodological perspective, it is a conceptual article inspired by a conference discussion1 and drawn on empirical evidence from previous relevant inquiries, longitudinal studies and international research projects. As such, the article is an attempt to pass the relay baton to further studies into the factors that have an impact on the successful development of plurilingual competences and add to the overall value of plurilingualism.
Text Compression in Surtitles: A Case Study of the OperaLa Traviata
Authors: Abraitienė Lina , Antanavičiūtė Laura 
Published: June 2020

SummarySurtitling as a mode of audiovisual translation is commonly used for intercultural communication both intralingually and interlingually in theatres. The largest Lithuanian theatres often provide surtitles as a means to present translated text of the original language, although in the scientific field surtitling is still a little studied mode. In order to provide qualitative surtitles that convey the essentials of the original language, translators and surtitlers applied a number of compression strategies. The duration and length of the surtitles are limited; therefore, the surtitle specialists must take into account the time and space constraints and provide the shortest text without losing the essence so that the viewer would be able to spend less time reading and mostly focusing on the performance. The article investigates cases of compression of translated text at both the syntactic and lexical levels. Using the descriptive, analytical and comparative methods, Lithuanian surtitles of the operaTraviatafor two theatres, namely Kaunas State Musical Theatre and Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre, are prepared, and a study of the cases of text compression is performed.

The centre of clothing distro and skatepark are buildings that are included in commercial and business functions. The centre of clothing distro is community of several clothing brands that have their own distro. The function of distro is to display and sell their products. Various concepts and idealism are offer from every clothing brands. Some concepts are offer such as music, skateboarding, custom motorbikes, surfing, tropics, and other concepts. The concepts of the brand will affect the interior concept that will applicated. The goal is to provide the identity and characteristics of distro, so that attract consumers to come and buy some products. The industrial concept interior is very suitable to be apply in a dis-tro. The material in industrial concept shows natural impression of material such as expose bricks, concrete, floor and some finishing marerials while still displaying the original texture. This makes the industrial concepts more affordable but requires high creativity, so that it is suitable to be apply in a distro. This concept will give a masculine impression, rough but still comfortable. The collaboration of the industrial concept with the concept with the concept of clothing brand can be apply by adding some decoration and artwork that related with the concept.

Ensino de gramática: contribuições de livros didáticos de Língua Portuguesa/ Grammar teaching: contributions from Portuguese textbooks
Authors: Chaves Marinho Janice Helena , Bicalho Delaine Cafiero 
Published: June 2020

Este artigo apresenta uma análise do trabalho com o ensino de gramática proposto por coleções de livros didáticos de Língua Portuguesa, de modo a identificar as contribuições que as coleções têm trazido para o ensino. Apresentamos uma análise geral de 40 coleções, em uso em escolas de Ensino Fundamental do país nos períodos de 2010 a 2012 e de 2011 a 2013. Desenvolvemos essa análise com base no estudo dos livros didáticos, bem como nas resenhas dessas coleções, publicadas nos Guias de Livro Didático. Assumindo uma concepção discursiva da língua e da linguagem (ANTUNES, 2010), interessou-nos investigar: por meio de que tipos de atividades o trabalho com esse eixo é proposto? Como são abordados os fatos da língua? Até que ponto o ensino de gramática contribui para reflexão sobre o uso da língua? ABSTRACTThis paper presents an analysis of the work with grammar proposed in Portuguese textbook series, aiming at identifying contributions they offer for Portuguese teaching. We present a general analysis of 40 textbook series that are in use in primary schools for the periods 2010-2012 and 2011-2013. We developed this analysis based on the study of their textbooks and also on the Reviews published in the Textbook Guides regarding two editions of the National Textbook Program. Assuming a discursive conception of language (ANTUNES, 2010), what interested us was to understand: how is the work with linguistic knowledge in these collections; through what types of activities it is proposed; how the facts of language are approached; if the treatment of grammatical content contributes to a reflection on language use.

Authors: Imelda Imelda 
Published: June 2020

This research study about tiofen based organic dyes with D-π-A type as sensitizer on DSSC. The dyes were varied with the acceptor chain and were given names of dyes 1 to 10. The dye with the smallest band gap was added with the electron withdrawing and donating groups. The computational study used the hyperchem package with the AM1 calculation method. The result showed that dye 8 has the smallest band gap is 4,9 eV and dipole moment is 9,3 D. The effect of adding Cl as an electron withrawing group (EWG) can reduce the band gap value to 4,7 eV. The conclusions are that dye 8 is more potential as sensitizer on DSSC and the addition of Cl as EWG can improve the light harvesting efficiency.
Can Polarity-Inverted Surfactants Self-Assemble in Nonpolar Solvents?
Authors: Carrer Manuel , Skrbic Tatjana , Bore Sigbjørn Løland , Milano Giuseppe , Cascella Michele , Giacometti Achille 
Published: June 2020

We investigate the self-assembly process of a surfactant with inverted polarity in water and cyclohexane using both all-atom and coarse grained hybrid particle-field moleculardynamics simulations. Unlike conventional surfactants, the molecule under study proposed in a recent experiment (M. Facchin et al., RSC Adv. 2017, 7, 15337–15341) isformed by a rigid and compact hydrophobic adamantane moiety, and a long and floppy triethylene glycol tail. In water, we report the formation of stable inverted micelles with the adamantane heads grouping together into a hydrophobic core, and the tails forming hydrogen bonds with water. By contrast, multi-microsecond simulations do not provide evidence of stable micelle formation in cyclohexane. Validating the computational results by comparison with experimental diffusion constant and small-angle neutron scattering intensity, we show that at laboratory thermodynamic conditions the mixture resides in the supercritical region of the phase diagram, where aggregated and free surfactant states co-exist in solution. Our simulations also provide indications about how to escape this region, to produce thermodynamically stable micellar forms.

Authors: ÜNÜBOL Hüseyin , HIZLI SAYAR Gökben 
Published: June 2020

Objective: The study aimed to examine the association of the fear of missing out (FoMO) on the symptoms of attention deficit-hyperactivity and impulsivity in terms of gender, age, and tobacco dependence. Materials and Methods: The study sample consisted of a total of 732 individuals. Of the participants, 425 were females and 307 were males. There were 258 smokers and 474 non-smokers in the study sample. Participants were administered a Socio-demographic Questionnaire, The Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Self-Report Scale (ASRS), The Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11), and Üsküdar FoMO Scale to collect data. The Mann Whitney U test was used to test the differences in terms of gender, age, and smoking status. Spearman correlation analysis and a linear regression analysis were performed to examine the correlation between the scales. Results: The intensity of the FoMO was not variable in regard to gender or smoking status. There was a significant difference in terms of the age variable. The model in the regression analysis, which evaluated the features of age, gender, smoking status, attention deficit, and impulsivity was found out to be statistically significant. Conclusions: The analysis of the data revealed that severity of the FoMO was increased with ASRS scores and decreased with age.
