De nuevo sobre la intensificación pragmática: revisión y propuesta
Authors: Albelda Marco Marta , Estellés Arguedas María 
Published: August 2021

Este artículo presenta una propuesta de caracterización de la intensificación desde una perspectiva pragmática con el objetivo de contribuir al establecimiento de una definición completa, delimitada y unitaria del fenómeno, que permita reconocer y discriminar los usos intensificaciones de otras categorías cercanas. Para ello, se revisan las principales aportaciones previas al estudio del fenómeno: desde las más extendidas, de carácter gramatical y semántico, a las más recientes de naturaleza pragmática.
Se propone, por un lado, una explicación cognitiva y metarrepresentacional que define la intensificación como el intento lingüístico de un hablante por modificar los supuestos que le atribuye al oyente y que no responden a sus expectativas. Por otro lado, se considera que esta modificación de los supuestos del oyente persigue unos efectos retóricos determinados, normalmente relacionados con la consecución de metas locales o globales de los hablantes en una determinada interacción en curso.
This article proposes a characterisation of intensification from a pragmatic perspective, aiming to establish a comprehensive, delimited and unitary definition This characterisation aspires to contribute to the recognition of the uses of intensification in real contexts and to help distinguish intensification from other similar phenomena. Before presenting the definition, the main contributions on the study of intensification are reviewed, both those conceived from a grammatical-semantic perspective and from a pragmatic perspective (the second are the most recent).A cognitive and meta-representational perspective presents intensification as a linguistic attempt of a speaker to modify the assumptions that he/she attributes to the listener, and that do not meet this speaker’s expectations. From a rhetorical perspective, the modification of the listener's assumptions pursues certain rhetorical effects, usually related to the achievement of local or global goals of the speaker in an ongoing interaction.
ciclo de la “Volombrella” y los límites de la temática napolitana en el Cansonero del Conde De Popoli
Authors: Rodríguez Mesa Francisco José 
Published: August 2021

El Cansonero encargado por Giovanni Cantelmo, Conde de Popoli, es considerado el máximo exponente de la denominada “lírica de koiné”, surgida en Nápoles durante el dominio aragonés. Por sus características, se podría decir que esta vertiente oscila entre la poesía culta o cortesana y el filón popular de inspiración meridional. Una de las pioneras en el estudio de esta obra, Maria Corti, afirmó que, temáticamente, “l’elemento indigeno vive in promiscuità con cose e immagini che nel ‘400 erano ormai di dominio nazionale nella letteratura popolareggiante riflessa” (1956: XXVI), inaugurando así una corriente de pensamiento crítico que ha sido aceptada sin discusión alguna por la mayoría de los estudiosos posteriores. En este estudio pretendemos comprobar la validez de las opiniones de Corti tomando como base uno de los grupos de composiciones más conocidos del Cansonero, el denominado ciclo de la “volombrella”.
The Cansonero, whose compilation was ordered by Giovanni Cantelmo, Count of Popoli, is considered as the main testimony of the so-called “koine poetry”, that emerges in Naples during the Aragonese period. According to its features, it could be said that this trend fluctuates between the courtesan poetry and the popular and Meridional one. Maria Corti, one of the pioneers in the study of this anthology, stated: “l’elemento indigeno vive in promiscuità con cose e immagini che nel ‘400 erano ormai di dominio nazionale nella letteratura popolareggiante riflessa” (1956: XXVI). With these words she inaugurated a critical tendency which has been followed without any revision by most of scholars. This study intends to prove the validity of Corti’s opinions on the basis of one of the most popular group of compositions in the Cansonero, the so-called “volombrella” cycle.
INTENSITATEA ÎN PUBLICITATEA AUDIOVIZUALĂ ROMÂNEASCĂ. DE LA ANALIZA LINGVISTICĂ LA ANALIZA MULTIMODALĂ
Authors: Nica Iulia , Teletin Andreea 
Published: August 2021

El presente análisis de la intensidad en la publicidad audiovisual de Rumanía se abre desde la perspectiva lingüística hacia la perspectiva multimodal. El interés es doble: por una parte, comparar las observaciones con los estudios previos sobre la lengua rumana actual y, por otra, comprobar la contribución que las fuentes extralingüísticas de la intensidad pueden aportar. Analizamos de paso algunos efectos humorísticos de la intensidad.
The present analysis of intensity in Romanian audiovisual advertising relies both on a linguistic and a multimodal approach. Our interest is double: confronting findings with various studies on contemporary Romanian language and verifying the contribution of extralinguistic sources to linguistic intensity. Some of the humoristic effects of intensity are also presented.
Le Conseil de l’Arctique est-il vraiment « le principal forum intergouvernemental pour la région arctique »?
Authors: De Pooter Hélène 
Published: August 2021

Depuis 2019, le Conseil de l’Arctique revendique la qualité de « principal forum intergouvernemental pour la région arctique ». La formulation choisie soulève deux questions : celle de la nature du Conseil de l’Arctique et celle de l’importance de son rôle. Ces deux questions sont abordées tour à tour afin d’évaluer si l’image que le Conseil de l’Arctique veut donner de lui-même, 25 ans après sa création, relève du slogan ou correspond à la réalité. Or, s’il apparaît que l’expression « forum intergouvernemental » ne permet plus de saisir la nature du Conseil de l’Arctique dans toute sa complexité, ce dernier parvient effectivement à se positionner comme un acteur central sur les questions arctiques.
Science en puissances : La recherche scientifique, porte d’entrée vers la gouvernance arctique pour les États observateurs
Authors: Strouk Mayline 
Published: August 2021

Cet article propose d’analyser la recherche scientifique comme étant la principale voie d’intégration d’États extérieurs à la région arctique. Nous montrons que, pour un ensemble d’États européens et asiatiques, leur engagement scientifique en Arctique a été le moteur de leur insertion dans le système politique régional, en particulier dans la gouvernance, dont la structure principale est le Conseil de l’Arctique depuis 1996. Uniquement composé des huit États reconnus comme souverains dans la région et de six organisations autochtones, le Conseil a intégré treize États au statut d’« observateurs ». Nous nous intéressons ainsi dans cet article à l’activité scientifique de ces États observateurs et à la dimension plus large de la science comme instrument de diplomatie, pour une participation à la gouvernance. Cependant, le seul cadre du Conseil de l’Arctique est limité et nous montrons que la science est en réalité la voie vers d’autres formes d’intégration.
Cellulose aerogel composites as oil sorbents and their regeneration
Authors: Paulauskiene Tatjana , Uebe Jochen , Ziogas Mindaugas 
Published: August 2021

Background
With every oil tanker comes the risk of an accident and oil spill. Sorbents are the most suitable means to remove oil spills. Aerogels as sorbents have high porosity and can be made from cellulose from paper waste. The literature does not distinguish between paper and cardboard as sources of cellulose aerogels and little is known about composites of cellulose aerogels consisting of cellulose fibres and chemically untreated, unprocessed fibres or particles of straw, wool, macroalgae or cellulose acetate from cigarette butts. In this study, the sorption properties for marine diesel oil and biodiesel of such aerogels and their regenerative capacity with bioethanol were investigated.

Methods
Cellulose aerogels were prepared from office paper and cardboard waste without and with chemically untreated algae, straw, wool and cellulose acetate as a composite by freeze drying. All samples were hydrophobised with methylsilane. The density to calculate the porosity and the contact angle were determined. Then the sorption capacity was determined over five cycles of sorption of oil and regeneration with bioethanol.

Results
The average contact angle of all samples was 125°, indicating hydrophobicity. Paper-based aerogels were found to consistently have higher sorption capacities for biodiesel, marine diesel oil and bioethanol than cardboard-based aerogels. In particular, the wool/cellulose aerogel composite was found to have better sorption capacity for biodiesel, marine diesel oil and bioethanol than all other samples. The cellulose acetate/cellulose aerogel composite showed significantly higher sorption capacities than the paper and cardboard control samples (highest value is 32.25 g g−1) only when first used as a sorbent for biodiesel, but with a rapid decrease in the following cycles.
Translation of N.B.K. Sänger’s (1871) “Peripatus capensis Gr. and Peripatus leuckartii n. sp.” (Onychophora), along with remarks about the author and significance of his work
Authors: Tait Noel N. , de Sena Oliveira Ivo , Mayer Georg 
Published: August 2021

ABSTRACT
The basic biology of onychophorans was revealed slowly and controversially during much of the 19th century. Communications were in Latin, French, Spanish, German and English. This information was synthesised in the monumental monographs of Bouvier in 1905 and 1907. However, amongst this multicultural endeavour is a significant Russian contribution by Nikolai Sänger, a student of Professor Leuckart of the Zoological Institute in Leipzig, Germany. Sänger requested a specimen of Onychophora from the Institute’s collection for serial sectioning. This resulted in a detailed account of the anatomy of Peripatopsis capensis. Sänger’s description of the extensive slime glands was the first to recognise them as the hallmark of onychophorans for defence and prey capture, and not the male reproductive system as previously claimed. Based on these morphological observations, he correctly concluded that onychophorans are not hermaphrodites and, furthermore, are “predominantly predaceous” animals. He further appropriately assigned the slime glands and salivary glands to the slime papilla segment, despite the lack of embryological data at that time. Sänger also identified the excretory organs (nephridia) and their openings, although he erroneously assigned them to a dual role of excretion and respiration. Moreover, he highlighted the importance of the position of the genital opening as a diagnostic character, described the ventral/preventral organs as “subcutaneous glandules”, identified the neurilemma enclosing the central nervous system, and recognised “oval holes of different sizes” in each nerve cord that were subsequently demonstrated to represent giant fibres. Of interest to parasitologists, he discovered a larval acanthocephalan encysted within the cutaneous muscles of his specimen of P. capensis, suggesting that onychophorans act as a secondary host for this parasite. Sänger’s memoir concludes with a brief but important description of the first species of Onychophora recorded from Australia, “northwest of Sydney, New Holland”. This species is now known as Euperipatoides leuckartii with a neotype designated from a specific location northwest of Sydney.
Factors Affecting the Adoption Level of Good Agricultural Practices by Cucurbit Farmers in Anuradhapura District, Sri Lanka
Authors: Bandara A. M. K. R. , Jayarathne A. A. M. , Lankapura A. I. Y. 
Published: August 2021

Aims: The primary focus of this empirical study was to investigate the factors influencing the level of GAP adoption for cucurbit vegetable in the Anuradhapura district of Sri Lanka.
Study Design: Three-stage purposive and proportionate sampling
Place and Duration of Study: The study was carried out in the Anuradhapura district, North Central Province of Sri Lanka in 2018.
Methodology: Primary and secondary data were used in the study. The primary data were collected mainly through a field survey using a structured and pre-tested questionnaire. The total sample size was 120. Key informant interviews (KII), and a focus group discussion (FGD) were conducted to triangulate data and information obtained from the questionnaire survey and to obtain additional qualitative information. Descriptive analytical techniques, analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, and the General Linear Model (GLM) were employed for the data analysis.
Results: Results revealed that 40% of respondents are moderate level GAP adopters, whilst about 68% practiced more than half of the recommended GAPs. The results of ANOVA revealed that farmers who adopted a higher proportion of GAPs earned a higher farming income, than those who practiced a moderate or low proportion of GAPs. Similarly, when compared to moderate and poor level GAP adopters, the average cost of production of higher-level adopters decreased significantly (p < 0.05). The results of the regression analysis revealed that farmer awareness of GAPs, farmer education level, farming experience, farming income, and cost of cultivation have a significant (p < 0.05) effect on the level of GAP adoption by cucurbit farmers.
Conclusion: Awareness of GAPs, farmer education level, farming experience, and farming income significantly affect the adoption level of GAPs. Policy priority should be given to planning for a long-term farmer awareness program on GAPs through proper training and extension programs.
Separation of Commercially Important Tuna from Other Fishes Using Feature Descriptor and Pre-trained CNN Models

Published: August 2021

Aims / Objectives: Identification of fish species is essential in export industries. Among the different fish species exported, tuna forms a significant portion and hence the separation of tuna from other fishes is necessary. The work aims to develop automated systems for the separation of commercially important tuna from other fishes.
Methodology: The work proposes two models for the classification of commercial fishes. The first model uses conventional feature descriptors, which extract features from both spatial and frequency domain. These features are combined and are reduced by an ensemble dimension reduction method. The combined and reduced feature sets are evaluated using different classifiers. The second proposed model uses four pre-trained convolutional neural networks, VGG16, VGG19, Xception, and MobileNet, for the classification. The models are fine-tuned for the classification process.
Results: Results show that for the first model, extreme learning machine classifier with Mercer wavelet kernel gives high accuracy on combined feature set while the polynomial kernel ELM provides better performance with the reduced set. For the second model, a comparison of the performance of four CNN models is done, and results indicate that VGG19 outperforms other networks in the classification task.
Conclusion: Among the two proposed models, pre-trained CNN based model shows better performance than the conventional method in the separation task. Different performance measures, accuracy, precision, recall, F-score, and misclassification error are used to evaluate the system. A comparison of performance of the proposed models with the state-of-the-art systems is also reported.

AbstractPurposeTo investigate the impact of rectal spacing on inter‐fractional rectal and bladder dose and the need for adaptive planning in prostate cancer patients undergoing SBRT with a 0.35 T MRI‐Linac.Materials and MethodsWe evaluated and compared SBRT plans from prostate cancer patients with and without rectal spacer who underwent treatment on a 0.35 T MRI‐Linac. Each group consisted of 10 randomly selected patients that received prostate SBRT to a total dose of 36.25 Gy in five fractions. Dosimetric differences in planned and delivered rectal and bladder dose and the number of fractions violating OAR constraints were quantified. We also assessed whether adaptive planning was needed to meet constraints for each fraction.ResultsOn average, rectal spacing reduced the maximum dose delivered to the rectum by more than 8 Gy (p < 0.001). We also found that D3cc received by the rectum could be 12 Gy higher in patients who did not have rectal spacer (p < 9E‐7). In addition, the results show that a rectal spacer can reduce the maximum dose and D15cc to the bladder wall by more than 1 (p < 0.004) and 8 (p < 0.009) Gy, respectively. Our study also shows that using a rectal spacer could reduce the necessity for adaptive planning. The incidence of dose constraint violation was observed in almost 91% of the fractions in patients without the rectal spacer and 52% in patients with implanted spacer.ConclusionInter‐fractional changes in rectal and bladder dose were quantified in patients who underwent SBRT with/without rectal SpaceOAR hydrogel. Rectal spacer does not eliminate the need for adaptive planning but reduces its necessity.

AbstractIdentifying real active sites and understanding the mechanism of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are still a big challenge today for developing efficient electrochemical catalysts in renewable energy technologies. Here, using a combined in situ/operando experiments and theory, the catalytic mechanism of the ordered OER active Co and Ir ions in Sr2CoIrO6−δ is studied, which exhibits an unprecedented low overpotential 210 mV to achieve 10 mA cm–2, ranking the highest performance among perovskite‐based solid‐state catalysts. Operando X‐ray absorption spectroscopies as a function of applied voltage indicates that Ir4+ ion is gradually converted into extremely high‐valence Ir5+/6+, while the part of Co3+ ion is transferred into Co4+ under OER process. Density functional theory calculations explicitly reveal the order Co‐O‐Ir network as an origin of ultrahigh OER activity. The work opens a promising path to overcome the sluggish kinetics of OER bottleneck for water splitting via proper arrangements of the multi‐active sites in catalyst.

Published: August 2021

AbstractAccurate and sensitive diagnosis of pathogenic bacterial infection is a fundamental first step for correct bacteria management, helping to avoid the development of drug‐resistant bacteria caused by the inappropriate use and overuse of antibiotics. Fluorescence probes as a promising visual tool can help identify pathogens rapidly and reliably. However, rigidly structured traditional fluorescence probes generally suffer from the drawback of aggregation‐caused quenching (ACQ) effect, which greatly undermines their advantages with respect to sensitivity. Luminogens with aggregation‐induced emission properties, namely AIEgens, can overcome the ACQ effect and certain AIEgen‐based materials are capable of generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the aggregate states. Hence, they have become powerful tools for imaging and killing bacteria. This review summarizes the recent advances in AIEgens for the diagnosis and treatment of pathogen infections. Special attention has been paid to the molecular design, the application in bacterial imaging and ablation in vitro and in vivo, and the biocompatibility of AIEgens. Finally, the challenges and prospects are discussed in terms of using AIEgens to advance precision therapies for pathogen infections.

AbstractWhile the charge transport properties of organic semiconductors have been extensively studied over the recent years, the field of organics‐based thermoelectrics is still limited by a lack of experimental data on thermal transport and of understanding of the associated structure–property relationships. To fill this gap, a comprehensive experimental and theoretical investigation of the lattice thermal conductivity in polycrystalline thin films of dinaphtho[2,3‐b:2′,3′‐f]thieno[3,2‐b]thiophene (Cn‐DNTT‐Cnwithn = 0, 8) semiconductors is reported. Strikingly, thermal conductivity appears to be much more isotropic than charge transport, which is confined to the 2D molecular layers. A direct comparison between experimental measurements (3ω–Völklein method) and theoretical estimations (approach‐to‐equilibrium molecular dynamics (AEMD) method) indicates that the in‐plane thermal conductivity is strongly reduced in the presence of the long terminal alkyl chains. This evolution can be rationalized by the strong localization of the intermolecular vibrational modes in C8‐DNTT‐C8 in comparison to unsubstituted DNTT cores, as evidenced by a vibrational mode analysis. Combined with the enhanced charge transport properties of alkylated DNTT systems, this opens the possibility to decouple electron and phonon transport in these materials, which provides great potential for enhancing the thermoelectric figure of meritZT.
Can China meet its purchase obligations under the Phase One Trade Agreement?

AbstractThis paper examines China's likelihood of meeting its purchase obligations under the Phase One Trade Agreement. In 2020, US agricultural exports to China ($27.2 billion) were 85% higher than in 2019 but 18% short of the first‐year Phase One goal ($33.4 billion). Evidence shows that many sectors experienced no change, particularly when compared to exports before the trade war. Some sectors benefited from China's overall demand growth and not necessarily from agreement commitments. Although there were substantial increases in exports of other major products (e.g., corn and poultry), these increases could not make up for less than expected soybean exports.
