Online total organic carbon (TOC) monitoring for water and wastewater treatment plants processes and operations optimization
Authors: Assmann Céline , Scott Amanda , Biller Dondra 
Published: August 2017

Abstract. Organic measurements, such as biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were developed decades ago in order to measure organics in water. Today, these time-consuming measurements are still used as parameters to check the water treatment quality; however, the time required to generate a result, ranging from hours to days, does not allow COD or BOD to be useful process control parameters – see (1) Standard Method 5210 B; 5-day BOD Test, 1997, and (2) ASTM D1252; COD Test, 2012. Online organic carbon monitoring allows for effective process control because results are generated every few minutes. Though it does not replace BOD or COD measurements still required for compliance reporting, it allows for smart, data-driven and rapid decision-making to improve process control and optimization or meet compliances. Thanks to the smart interpretation of generated data and the capability to now take real-time actions, municipal drinking water and wastewater treatment facility operators can positively impact their OPEX (operational expenditure) efficiencies and their capabilities to meet regulatory requirements. This paper describes how three municipal wastewater and drinking water plants gained process insights, and determined optimization opportunities thanks to the implementation of online total organic carbon (TOC) monitoring.
Breaking supercontinents; no need to choose between passive or active
Authors: Wolstencroft Martin , Davies J. Huw 
Published: August 2017

Abstract. Much debate has centred on whether continental break-up is predominantly caused by active upwelling in the mantle (e.g. plumes) or by long-range extensional stresses in the lithosphere. We propose the hypothesis that global supercontinent break-up events should always involve both. The fundamental principle involved is the conservation of mass within the spherical shell of the mantle, which requires a return flow for any major upwelling beneath a supercontinent. This shallow horizontal return flow away from the locus of upwelling produces extensional stress. We demonstrate this principle with numerical models, which simultaneously exhibit both upwellings and significant lateral flow in the upper mantle. For non-global break-up the impact of the finite geometry of the mantle will be less pronounced, weakening this process. This observation should motivate future studies of continental break-up to explicitly consider the global perspective, even when observations or models are of regional extent.
Open-source sea ice drift algorithm for Sentinel-1 SAR imagery using a combination of feature tracking and pattern matching
Authors: Muckenhuber Stefan , Sandven Stein 
Published: August 2017

Abstract. An open-source sea ice drift algorithm for Sentinel-1 SAR imagery is introduced based on the combination of feature tracking and pattern matching. Feature tracking produces an initial drift estimate and limits the search area for the consecutive pattern matching, which provides small- to medium-scale drift adjustments and normalised cross-correlation values. The algorithm is designed to combine the two approaches in order to benefit from the respective advantages. The considered feature-tracking method allows for an efficient computation of the drift field and the resulting vectors show a high degree of independence in terms of position, length, direction and rotation. The considered pattern-matching method, on the other hand, allows better control over vector positioning and resolution. The preprocessing of the Sentinel-1 data has been adjusted to retrieve a feature distribution that depends less on SAR backscatter peak values. Applying the algorithm with the recommended parameter setting, sea ice drift retrieval with a vector spacing of 4 km on Sentinel-1 images covering 400 km  ×  400 km, takes about 4 min on a standard 2.7 GHz processor with 8 GB memory. The corresponding recommended patch size for the pattern-matching step that defines the final resolution of each drift vector is 34  ×  34 pixels (2.7  ×  2.7 km). To assess the potential performance after finding suitable search restrictions, calculated drift results from 246 Sentinel-1 image pairs have been compared to buoy GPS data, collected in 2015 between 15 January and 22 April and covering an area from 80.5 to 83.5° N and 12 to 27° E. We found a logarithmic normal distribution of the displacement difference with a median at 352.9 m using HV polarisation and 535.7 m using HH polarisation. All software requirements necessary for applying the presented sea ice drift algorithm are open-source to ensure free implementation and easy distribution.

Marka pracodawcy a marka zatrudnienia – dyskusja pojęć
Authors: Jędrzejczyk Anna 
Published: August 2017

W artykule zostały zaprezentowane różnice występujące w literaturze polskojęzycznej, anglojęzycznej i niemieckojęzycznej przy definiowaniu dwóch terminów: „marki praco‑ dawcy” i „marki zatrudnienia”. Te różnice definicyjne wywołują odmienności na płaszczyź‑ nie zrozumienia funkcji, jakie spełnia zarządzanie marką pracodawcy wobec zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi w przedsiębiorstwie. Zarówno z literatury niemieckojęzycznej, jak i polskojęzycznej wynika, iż zarządzanie marką pracodawcy wpływa na zarządzanie zaso‑ bami ludzkimi głównie przy definiowaniu wspólnych wartości marki pracodawcy z marką zatrudnienia. Natomiast zgodnie z literaturą anglojęzyczną markę pracodawcy stanowi również marka zatrudnienia, a jej celem jest stworzenie miejsca pracy, w którym pracow‑ nicy chcą pracować. Oznacza to, że w literaturze anglojęzycznej procesy w ramach employer brandingu wpływają bezpośrednio na funkcje personalne w przedsiębiorstwie, przy czym w literaturze polskojęzycznej i niemieckojęzycznej ten wpływ jest jedynie pośredni.
Program pomysłów pracowniczych jako narzędzie innowacyjności oddolnej w małych przedsiębiorstwach przemysłowych
Authors: Borkowski Rafał Marcin 
Published: August 2017

Motorem napędowym innowacyjności w małych przedsiębiorstwach jest przede wszystkim środowisko pracy. Małe firmy charakteryzuje brak skostniałej struktury organizacyjnej, elastyczne reagowanie na zmiany rynku, czy możliwość udziału pracowników w bezpośrednim kreowaniu nowych produktów bądź usług. Ze względu na niski poziom innowacyjności małych przedsiębiorstw, wynikający często z ograniczeń kapitału rzeczowego i finansowego, małe podmioty gospodarcze powinny częściej korzystać z narzędzi umożliwiających wykorzystanie potencjału swoich pracowników. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie zasadności stymulowania pracowników małych przedsiębiorstw do wykorzystywania umiejętności twórczego myślenia, kreatywności i zaangażowania w podejmowaniu innowacyjnych działań w firmie. Jednym z instrumentów innowacyjności oddolnej stosowanym w małych przedsiębiorstwach jest program pomysłów pracowniczych

Wpływ kapitału kulturowego, społecznego i ekonomicznego na ponoszenie odpłatności za studia
Authors: Czarnecki Krzysztof 
Published: August 2017

Artykuł podejmuje próbę zbadania wpływu kapitału ekonomicznego, społecznego i kulturowego na podejmowanie studiów na uczelni publicznej lub niepublicznej, w trybie stacjonarnym lub niestacjonarnym, a w konsekwencji tych dwóch alternatyw także na konieczność płacenia czesnego. Wykorzystywane zazwyczaj w badaniach nad nierównościami w dostępie do edukacji wyższej koncepcje „klasy społecznej” i „statusu spo- łeczno-ekonomicznego” zostały skonceptualizowane w formie trzech rodzajów kapitału. Pozwoliło to uwzględnić w modelu więcej informacji o specyficznych zasobach gospodarstwa domowego, mogących mieć znaczenie dla osiągnięć edukacyjnych. Wyniki dostarczają informacji o cechach osób płacących za studia oraz pozwalają na postawienie hipotez odnośnie do redystrybucyjnych efektów systemu finansowania edukacji wyższej w Polsce.

AbstractIntroduction: Cisgender and transgender woman sex workers (CWSWs and TWSWs, respectively) are key populations in Malaysia with higher HIV‐prevalence than that of the general population. Given the impact economic instability can have on HIV transmission in these populations, novel HIV prevention interventions that reduce poverty may reduce HIV incidence and improve linkage and retention to care for those already living with HIV. We examine the feasibility of a microfinance‐based HIV prevention intervention among CWSW and TWSWs in Greater Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.Methods: We conducted 35 in‐depth interviews to examine the acceptability of a microfinance‐based HIV prevention intervention, focusing on: (1) participants’ readiness to engage in other occupations and the types of jobs in which they were interested in; (2) their level of interest in the components of the potential intervention, including training on financial literacy and vocational education; and (3) possible barriers and facilitators to the successful completion of the intervention. Using grounded theory as a framework of analysis, transcripts were analysed through Nvivo 11.Results: Participants were on average 41 years old, slightly less than half (48%) were married, and more than half (52%) identified as Muslim. Participants express high motivation to seek employment in other professions as they perceived sex work as not a “proper job” with opportunities for career growth but rather as a short‐term option offering an unstable form of income. Participants wanted to develop their own small enterprise. Most participants expressed a high level of interest in microfinance intervention and training to enable them to enter a new profession. Possible barriers to intervention participation included time, stigma, and a lack of resources.Conclusion: Findings indicate that a microfinance intervention is acceptable and desirable for CWSWs and TWSWs in urban Malaysian contexts as participants reported that they were ready to engage in alternative forms of income generation.
Pregnant adolescents living with HIV: what we know, what we need to know, where we need to go
Authors: Callahan Tegan , Modi Surbhi , Swanson Jennifer , Ng'eno Bernadette , Broyles Laura N. 
Published: August 2017

AbstractIntroduction: HIV‐infected pregnant and breastfeeding adolescents are a particularly vulnerable group that require special attention and enhanced support to achieve optimal maternal and infant outcomes. The objective of this paper is to review published evidence about antenatal care (ANC) service delivery and outcomes for HIV‐infected pregnant adolescents in low‐income country settings, identify gaps in knowledge and programme services and highlight the way forward to improve clinical outcomes of this vulnerable group.Discussion: Emerging data from programmes in sub‐Saharan Africa highlight that HIV‐infected pregnant adolescents have poorer prevention of mother‐to‐child HIV transmission (PMTCT) service outcomes, including lower PMTCT service uptake, compared to HIV‐infected pregnant adults. In addition, the limited evidence available suggests that there may be higher rates of mother‐to‐child HIV transmission among infants of HIV‐infected pregnant adolescents.Conclusions: While the reasons for the inferior outcomes among adolescents in ANC need to be further explored and addressed, there is sufficient evidence that immediate operational changes are needed to address the unique needs of this population. Such changes could include integration of adolescent‐friendly services into PMTCT settings or targeting HIV‐infected pregnant adolescents with enhanced retention and follow‐up activities.
Influence of landscape heterogeneity on water available to tropical forests in an Amazonian catchment and implications for modeling drought response

Published: August 2017

AbstractThe Amazon basin has experienced periodic droughts in the past, and intense and frequent droughts are predicted in the future. Landscape heterogeneity could play an important role in how tropical forests respond to drought by influencing water available to plants. Using the one‐dimensional ACME Land Model and the three‐dimensional ParFlow variably saturated flow model, numerical experiments were performed for a catchment in central Amazon to elucidate processes that influence water available for plant use and provide insights for improving Earth system models. Results from ParFlow show that topography has a dominant influence on groundwater table and runoff through lateral flow. Without any representations of lateral processes, ALM simulates very different seasonal variations in groundwater table and runoff compared to ParFlow even if it is able to reproduce the long‐term spatial average groundwater table of ParFlow through simple parameter calibration. In the ParFlow simulations, even in the plateau with much deeper water table depth during the dry season in the drought year of 2005, plant transpiration is not water stressed as the soil saturation is still sufficient for the stomata to be fully open based on the empirical wilting formulation in the models. This finding is insensitive to uncertainty in atmospheric forcing and soil parameters, but the empirical wilting formulation is an important factor that should be addressed using observations and modeling of coupled plant hydraulics‐soil hydrology processes in future studies. The results could be applicable to other catchments in the Amazon basin with similar seasonal variability and hydrologic regimes.
Cancer: Chromosomal Abnormalities
Authors: Mitelman Felix 
Published: August 2017

Abstract

Most cancer cells have acquired clonal chromosome abnormalities. An increasing number of characteristic aberrations, in particular balanced changes, are with remarkable specificity associated with distinctive morphological and clinical disease characteristics. The identification of these recurrent aberrations has several important implications. First, cytogenetics has become an increasingly important tool in the clinical management of cancer patients to help establish a correct diagnosis, to predict prognosis and to select the most appropriate treatment. Second, the cytogenetic information has provided invaluable help to identify genes of importance in the carcinogenic process by focusing the attention to chromosomal sites that may harbour genes which when rearranged lead to neoplasia. Practically, all balanced structural rearrangements that have been characterised at the molecular level have been found to exert their action through one of the two alternative mechanisms: deregulation, usually overexpression, of a seemingly normal gene in one of the breakpoints, or the creation of an abnormal hybrid gene through fusion of parts of two genes, one in each breakpoint.

Key Concepts

Chromosome aberrations are a characteristic feature of neoplasia.

Chromosome abnormalities have been reported in almost 70 000 human neoplasms.

Recurrent balanced chromosome rearrangements, in particular translocations, are associated with distinctive tumour characteristics.

Cancer‐associated chromosome changes are of clinical importance for diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.

The breakpoints of balanced structural chromosome aberrations point at the locations of cancer‐relevant genes.

Cancer‐associated structural chromosome abnormalities lead to the formation of hybrid genes through fusions of parts of two genes located in the breakpoints.

Almost 800 gene fusions created by an acquired chromosome change are known.
