The role of serial European windstorm clustering for extreme seasonal losses as determined from multi-centennial simulations of high-resolution global climate model data
Authors: Priestley Matthew D. K. , Dacre Helen F. , Shaffrey Len C. , Hodges Kevin I. , Pinto Joaquim G. 
Published: November 2018

Abstract. Extratropical cyclones are the most damaging
natural hazard to affect western Europe. Serial clustering occurs when many
intense cyclones affect one specific geographic region in a short period of
time which can potentially lead to very large seasonal losses. Previous
studies have shown that intense cyclones may be more likely to cluster than
less intense cyclones. We revisit this topic using a high-resolution climate
model with the aim to determine how important clustering is for windstorm-related losses. The role of windstorm clustering is investigated using a quantifiable metric
(storm severity index, SSI) that is based on near-surface meteorological
variables (10 m wind speed) and is a good proxy for losses. The SSI is used
to convert a wind footprint into losses for individual windstorms or seasons.
918 years of a present-day ensemble of coupled climate model simulations from
the High-Resolution Global Environment Model (HiGEM) are compared to
ERA-Interim reanalysis. HiGEM is able to successfully reproduce the
wintertime North Atlantic/European circulation, and represent the large-scale
circulation associated with the serial clustering of European windstorms. We
use two measures to identify any changes in the contribution of clustering to
the seasonal windstorm loss as a function of return period. Above a return period of 3 years, the accumulated seasonal loss from HiGEM is
up to 20 % larger than the accumulated seasonal loss from a set of random
resamples of the HiGEM data. Seasonal losses are increased by
10 %–20 % relative to randomized seasonal losses at a return period
of 200 years. The contribution of the single largest event in a season to the
accumulated seasonal loss does not change with return period, generally
ranging between 25 % and 50 %. Given the realistic dynamical representation of cyclone clustering in HiGEM,
and comparable statistics to ERA-Interim, we conclude that our estimation of
clustering and its dependence on the return period will be useful for
informing the development of risk models for European windstorms,
particularly for longer return periods.
Simple and Efficient Prediction of Near Future State of Traffic Using Only Past Speed Information
Authors: Kababulut Fevzi Yasin , Kuntalp Damla , Akay Olcay , Düzenli Timur 
Published: November 2018

Intelligent traffic systems attempt to solve the problem of traffic congestion, which is one of the most important environmental and economic issues of urban life. In this study, we approach this problem via prediction of traffic status using past average traveler speed (ATS). Five different algorithms are proposed for predicting the traffic status. They are applied to real data provided by the Traffic Control Center of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. Algorithm 1 predicts future ATS on a highway section based on the past speed information obtained from the same road section. The other proposed algorithms, Algorithms 2 through 5, predict the traffic status as fluent, moderately congested, or congested, again using past traffic state information for the same road segment. Here, traffic states are assigned according to predetermined intervals of ATS values. In the proposed algorithms, ATS values belonging to past five consecutive 10-minute time intervals are used as input data. Performances of the proposed algorithms are evaluated in terms of root mean square error (RMSE), sample accuracy, balanced accuracy, and processing time. Although the proposed algorithms are relatively simple and require only past speed values, they provide fairly reliable results with noticeably low prediction errors.
Late Cretaceous sauropod tooth morphotypes may provide supporting evidence for faunal connections between North Africa and Southern Europe
Authors: Holwerda Femke M. , Díez Díaz Verónica , Blanco Alejandro , Montie Roel , Reumer Jelle W.F. 
Published: November 2018

The Cretaceous Kem Kem beds of Morocco and equivalent beds in Algeria have produced a rich fossil assemblage, yielding, amongst others, isolated sauropod teeth, which can be used in species diversity studies. These Albian-Cenomanian (∼113–93.9 Ma) strata rarely yield sauropod body fossils, therefore, isolated teeth can help to elucidate the faunal assemblages from North Africa, and their relations with those of contemporaneous beds and geographically close assemblages. Eighteen isolated sauropod teeth from three localities (Erfoud and Taouz, Morocco, and Algeria) are studied here, to assess whether the teeth can be ascribed to a specific clade, and whether different tooth morphotypes can be found in the samples. Two general morphotypes are found, based on enamel wrinkling and general tooth morphology. Morphotype I, with mainly rugose enamel wrinkling, pronounced carinae, lemon-shaped to (sub)cylindrical cross-section and mesiodistal tapering towards an apical tip, shows affinities to titanosauriforms and titanosaurs. Morphotype II, characterized by more smooth enamel, cylindrical cross-section, rectangular teeth with no apical tapering and both labial and lingual wear facets, shows similarities to rebbachisaurids. Moreover, similarities are found between these northwest African tooth morphotypes, and tooth morphotypes from titanosaurs and rebbachisaurids from both contemporaneous finds from north and central Africa, as well as from the latest Cretaceous (Campanian–Maastrichtian, 83.6 Ma–66.0 Ma) of the Ibero-Armorican Island. These results support previous hypotheses from earlier studies on faunal exchange and continental connections between North Africa and Southern Europe in the Cretaceous.

A produção e a divulgação do conhecimento desafiam sempre a comunidade científica. Em verdade, não resultam simplesmente desta, mas antes a constituem. Em sendo assim, como elementos constitutivos de sua identidade, não deixam de carregar as marcas próprias de nosso tempo, a nos cobrar novos recursos e uma dimensão acadêmica globalizada.

TWO CRISES OF HISTORICAL CONSCIOUSNESS/DUAS CRISES DA CONSCIÊNCIA HISTÓRICA
Authors: Franklin Sergio , Alves Fernanda Maria Melo 
Published: November 2018

Peter Burke dedica este artigo à veracidade e credibilidade das fontes de informação, paradigma, que se vem prolongando desde épocas antigas, e que continua a preocupar o mundo acadêmico ainda hoje. Embora possa parecer, à primeira vista, dizer respeito apenas aos historiadores, este tema abarca todas as áreas do conhecimento e profissões.
No contexto da Ciência de Informação e áreas afins, os estudos teóricos e a prática científica e investigadora valorizam, prioritariamente, a consulta da fonte de informação primária, qualquer que seja o tipo de suporte utilizado, por se considerar conter a informação original, embora não se menospreze a informação contida em outro tipo de fontes. O autor analisa a possibilidade, os limites e os fundamentos do conhecimento e seus registos, questionados e debatidos ao longo da história humana, e respostas extremamente diversificadas. A vigência do questionamento e reflexão das fontes de informação é importante e oportuna para os docentes, investigadores e profissionais da área da Informação e Documentação, que podem encontrar neste artigo várias práticas e posturas fundamentadas em textos de distintas épocas e temas. Agradecemos ao autor por compartilhar, no presente texto e em outros, preocupações com os que não se acomodam aos paradigmas instalados, cuja inquietação científica obriga à reflexão sobre antigos e novos problemas, característica do percurso científico, cuja necessidade e benefícios são incontestáveis, e que contribui para o desenvolvimento científico individual e coletivo.
