Trace Elements in Simultaneously Sampled Aerosol and Snow from the Antarctic Peninsula (Abstract)
Authors: Dick Alan L. 
Published: September 2017

Ultra-clean techniques have been used to collect a series of fresh surface-snow samples on Gipps Ice Rise, Larsen Ice Shelf (68°48′S, 60°54′W) between 21 December 1984 and 12 February 1985. Aerosol samples were collected simultaneously on to pre-cleaned membrane filters to allow the direct comparison of trace-element levels in air and snow. Samples have been analysed by various techniques for cadmium, copper, lead, zinc, aluminium, calcium, potassium and sodium. For all elements, cross-sample concentration profiles have been obtained to support the data for snow samples.The heavy-metal concentrations found in the surface snow were similar to those measured previously near Gomez Nunatak in the Antarctic Peninsula. The mean aerosol concentrations found at Gipps Ice Rise were Cd: 0.06 pg m−3, Cu: 1.0 pg m−3, Pb; 4.7 pg m−3, Zn: 6.1 pg m−3. These are the lowest concentrations measured so far in Antarctic aerosol.The ratio of the snow concentration (pg g−1) to air concentration (ng m−3), known as the washout factor, has been calculated for each element and sampling period. The data show that, for the Antarctic Peninsula, the marine aerosol is more efficiently removed to the snow-pack than is the crustal aerosol. Heavy metals are least efficiently removed. This result suggests that the measurement of concentrations in snow and ice alone may lead to misinterpretation of atmospheric source strengths.

Published: September 2017

Between May 1983 and July 1984 glaciological parties of the 24th and 25th Japanese Antarctic Research Expeditions (JARE–24 and 25) carried out ice-core drilling using a thermal drill, down to 700.5 m depth at Mizuho Station (70°41'53"S, 44°19'54"E), as a part of the Glaciological Research Program in east Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica.The thermal drill, 3.9 m long and capable of taking a core 1.5 m long and 130 mm in diameter, is an improved version of a drill used by JARE–15 in 1975. The most important improvement was the monitoring system during drilling, for which a micro-computer was fitted in the drill. By using this system, such accidents as heater burn-out, tank overflow and failure of water suction would immediately be brought to our attention. The drilling speed was about 1.6 m/h, when the optimum output was 3.6 kW. The core recovery rate was above 99%.The core quality was good down to a depth of 80 m. Between 80 and 120 m, cracks were found at intervals of 0.15–0.5 m, and horizontal cracks were found continuously at intervals of 0.01 m or less.Immediately after the core was pulled, the stratigraphy was observed and bulk density was measured. A dust band, presumably volcanic particles, was seen at only 500.2 m depth during stratigraphic observation. The following analyses were carried out at Mizuho Station within a month of recovery:
(1)Density determination by the hydrostatic method.(2)Measurement of total gas content.(3)Thin-section analyses, including observation of cracking around air bubbles and the crystalline texture, and ice-fabric studies.The 700.5 m core has been brought to Japan, and the following analyses are now under way:
(1)Oxygen-isotope ratio.(2)Concentration of microparticles.(3)Electric conductivity.(4)Chemistry of soluble impurities.
Snow-Core Analysis at Mid- and High Altitude in the Snow-Pack (Abstract)
Authors: Page Yves 
Published: September 2017

Since 1977, we have been studying the weather and climate of a mountain area, and particularly the winter snow-pack.The area is situated in the French Alps, at an altitude of 1450-2500 m. Since winter 1982-83, we have been studying the snow-pack each week and every time we collected snow cores. We collected them at different test sites (area 1: 1850 m NW; area 2: 1800 m SE; area 3: 1600 m NW; area 4: 2000 m).The following parameters were collected at the test sites on a continuous basis throughout the winter: new and total snow depth, wind direction and precipitation (solid and liquid), snow-water equivalent (precipitation and total snow depth), standard snow profiles, and structure of the snow-pack.After data analysis, many different questions were investigated, in two respects:(1) Analytical techniques: problems of sampling snow cores (transport, conservation, evolution), and analysis of the micro-structure of the different snow layers in correlation with the macro-structure of the snow-pack.(2) Results and interpretations: do changes in the structure (macro- and micro-structure) of the snow cores take place during their conservation? Can we consider snow cores as preserving the record of the winter climate (precipitation, chemical pollution)?(3) Data archive: Constitution of snow-core data archive, in relation to the climatology of the area.
Caribbean Formations in the Rhysian Corpus
Authors: Mardorossian Carine M. 
Published: September 2017

In “What is an Author?” Michel Foucault reframes the author as an “author-function” that has historically been produced through its interaction with both the text and its audience. In this essay, I deploy Foucault’s unsettling of the author as origin and use it as a lens through which to make sense of the Rhys protagonist. Specifically, I examine what I call the “landscape function” in Rhys’s texts (to echo Foucault’s “author function”) in order to highlight the multiplicity of meanings through which the category “human” is produced in the Rhysian corpus. This Foucaultian reading thus reveals the extent to which neither character nor the environment pre-exist their narrativisation in the diegetic logic of the text but are actually produced through their mutual imbrication in narrative.
HD 49798: Its History of Binary Interaction and Future Evolution
Authors: Brooks Jared , Kupfer Thomas , Bildsten Lars 
Published: September 2017

Abstract
The bright subdwarf-O star (sdO) HD 49798 is in a 1.55 day orbit with a compact companion that is spinning at 13.2 s. Using the measurements of the effective temperature (

), surface gravity (

), and surface abundances of the sdO, we construct models to study the evolution of this binary system using Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA). Previous studies of the compact companion have disagreed on whether it is a white dwarf (WD) or a neutron star (NS). From the published measurements of the companion’s spin and spin-up rate, we agree with Mereghetti and collaborators that an NS companion is more likely. However, since there remains the possibility of a WD companion, we use our constructed MESA models to run simulations with both WD and NS companions that help us constrain the past and future evolution of this system. If it presently contains an NS, the immediate mass transfer evolution upon Roche lobe filling will lead to mass transfer rates comparable to that implied in ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs). Depending on the rate of angular momentum extraction via a wind, the fate of this system is either a wide (

day) intermediate-mass binary pulsar (IMPB) with a relatively rapidly spinning NS (≈0.3 s) and a high mass WD (

), or a solitary millisecond pulsar (MSP).
Le corps comme discord. Le corps comme discorps
Authors: Lévy Alexandre 
Published: September 2017

Cette étude propose d’aborder la question du corps à travers les différents registres de l’imaginaire, du symbolique et du réel afin de concevoir le corps non comme support de la pensée et de l’esprit, mais comme partie intégrante et fondamentale de la position subjective. Aussi nous proposons la notion de discorps pour souligner cette dimension du corps parlant, tout en mettant en lumière les phénomènes de dissonances et de discords. Ce travail permet d’aborder une clinique du corps, à travers différents cas, venant interroger leurs positions subjectives : du surgissement de l’affect, en passant par les actes de mutilations, le corps apparaît comme le lieu où tente de s’inscrire le sujet.
Comment survivre ? Une approche phénoménologique de la situation de crise à partir de Maldiney et Pankow
Authors: Bastiani Flora 
Published: September 2017

Afin d’étudier ce qui advient lorsqu’un événement traumatique a lieu, cet article s’appuie sur une question centrale : comment survivre ? Cette question signifie que, lorsque la structure du sujet est sur le point de perdre son unité, comme Henri Maldiney l’écrit, le sujet « est contraint d’être lui-même ou d’être détruit » (1991, p. 321). Nous essaierons de comprendre quelle stratégie peut être adoptée pour faire face à cette nécessité de surpasser l’impossible posé par l’événement. Finalement, les réponses à l’événement qui sont considérées comme pathologiques seront abordées ici comme autant de stratégies de survie.
Beans
Authors: Albala Ken 
Published: September 2017

This is the story of the bean, the staple food cultivated by humans for over 10,000 years.
From the lentil to the soybean, every civilization on the planet has cultivated its own species of bean. The humble bean has always attracted attention - from Pythagoras’ notion that the bean hosted a human soul to St. Jerome’s indictment against bean-eating in convents (because they “tickle the genitals”), to current research into the deadly toxins contained in the most commonly eaten beans.
Over time, the bean has been both scorned as “poor man’s meat” and praised as health-giving, even patriotic. Attitudes to this most basic of foodstuffs have always revealed a great deal about a society. Featuring a new preface from author Ken Albala, Beans: A History takes the reader on a fascinating journey across cuisines and cultures.
Brazilian Food
Authors: Fajans Jane 
Published: September 2017

Brazil is a nation of vast expanses and enormous variation from geography and climate to cultures and languages. Within these boundaries are definable regions in which certain customs, history, and shared views help define an identity and cohesion. In many cases, the pattern of settlement and immigration has influenced the culinary culture of Brazil.
This book explores the role that food and cuisine play in the construction of identity on both the regional and national levels in Brazil through key case examples. It explores the way in which food has become an important element in attracting tourists to a region as well as a way of making aspects of a culture known beyond its borders as cookbooks, ingredients and restaurants move outward in our globalized world.
The Handbook of Food and Anthropology
Authors: Klein Jakob A. , Watson James L. 
Published: September 2017

Interest in the anthropology of food has grown significantly in recent years. This is the first handbook to provide a detailed overview of all major areas of the field.
Twenty original essays by leading figures in the discipline examine traditional areas of research as well as cutting-edge areas of inquiry. Divided into three parts – Food, Self and Others; Food Security, Nutrition and Food Safety; Food as Craft, Industry and Ethics – the book covers topics such as identity, commensality, locality, migration, ethical consumption, artisanal foods, and children's food. Each chapter features rich ethnography alongside wider analysis of the subject.
Internationally renowned scholars offer insights into their core areas of specialty. Examples include Michael Herzfeld on culinary stereotypes, David Sutton on how to conduct an anthropology of cooking, Johan Pottier on food insecurity, and Melissa Caldwell on practicing food anthropology. The book also features exceptional geographic and cultural diversity, with chapters on South Asia, South Africa, the United States of America, post-socialist societies, Maoist China, and Muslim and Jewish foodways.
Invaluable as a reference as well as for teaching, The Handbook of Food and Anthropology serves to define this increasingly important field. An essential resource for researchers and students in anthropology and food studies.
Impact evaluation of conducted UWB transients on loads in power-line networks
Authors: Li Bing , Månsson Daniel 
Published: September 2017

Abstract. Nowadays, faced with the ever-increasing dependence on diverse electronic devices and systems, the proliferation of potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) becomes a critical threat for reliable operation. A typical issue is the electronics working reliably in power-line networks when exposed to electromagnetic environment. In this paper, we consider a conducted ultra-wideband (UWB) disturbance, as an example of intentional electromagnetic interference (IEMI) source, and perform the impact evaluation at the loads in a network. With the aid of fast Fourier transform (FFT), the UWB transient is characterized in the frequency domain. Based on a modified Baum–Liu–Tesche (BLT) method, the EMI received at the loads, with complex impedance, is computed. Through inverse FFT (IFFT), we obtain time-domain responses of the loads. To evaluate the impact on loads, we employ five common, but important quantifiers, i.e., time-domain peak, total signal energy, peak signal power, peak time rate of change and peak time integral of the pulse. Moreover, to perform a comprehensive analysis, we also investigate the effects of the attributes (capacitive, resistive, or inductive) of other loads connected to the network, the rise time and pulse width of the UWB transient, and the lengths of power lines. It is seen that, for the loads distributed in a network, the impact evaluation of IEMI should be based on the characteristics of the IEMI source, and the network features, such as load impedances, layout, and characteristics of cables.
Haitian Sovereignty
Authors: Dubois Laurent 
Published: September 2017

“Haitian Sovereignty” explores three intertwined legacies of the Haitian Revolution on political thought and practice in the country: the largely hostile reaction to it outside the country, the formation of new political institutions and structures, and, most importantly, the creation of a new set of cultural, social, and economic structures that Jean Casimir has called the “counter-plantation” system. This chapter identifies both the main currents and critical counter-currents within each of these legacies, calling attention to the aspects of the latter legacies that seem to be the most valuable and worth comprehending and nourishing in constructing new Haitian futures.
As novas tendências militares: uma oportunidade para as mulheres?
Authors: Schwether Natalia Diniz , Pagliari Graciela Conti 
Published: September 2017

Este estudo tem como principal objetivo analisar o fenômeno de modernização institucional e reordenamento da atuação das forças armadas, destacando a incorporação das mulheres como um de seus elementos. Para tanto, apresenta, a priori, uma descrição da identidade militar, seus valores, costumes e condutas basilares. Em seguida, traça a evolução da estrutura militar ao modelo pósmoderno, evidenciado por suas novas atribuições, momento em que se observa com maior proeminência a incorporação feminina. O artigo se desenvolve em bases qualitativas, através de uma revisão de literatura pertinente à área, com intuito de corroborar a hipótese de que a evolução do contexto internacional contribuiu para a atualização das forças armadas. Como resultado, depreende-se que, embora as mulheres estejam presentes em baixas porcentagens e, particularmente, em funções associadas ao estereótipo feminino da pacificidade, sua inserção foi um dos aspectos deste processo de modernização militar.
Inquisitive Legacies
Authors: Ferrão R. Benedito 
Published: September 2017

In keeping with the shift of the modern Indian nation-state to the religio-political right, minority legacies in such regions as the Malabar and Konkan coasts are either being obfuscated or rehistoricized. To prove my point, I employ two botanical texts from the 16th and 17th centuries. The former, the Colóquios dos Simples e Drogas e Cousas Medicinias da Índia, was written by Garcia da Orta, a Jewish-Catholic converso who lived and died in Portuguese Goa under the threat of the Inquisition. In its efforts to represent its past and present as a modern quasi city-state in line with other Indian metros, the Goan State chose, in 2012, to commemorate the 17th century Hortus Malabaricus, an ecological treatise that, curiously, comes from the Malabar, because among its contributors were Saraswat Brahmins with a dubious connection to Goan history. That this commemoration occurred on the uncelebrated 450th anniversary publication of da Orta's opus - one of the earliest texts to be published in South Asia - underscores the State's investment in legacy-making and forgetting.
Discrepant Ecologies in a North Indian Qasba
Authors: Gold Ann Grodzins 
Published: September 2017

Ethnographic fieldwork in the municipality of Jahazpur, a market town and sub-district headquarters in North India, reveals contrasting roles of religiosity and identity in environmental protection. Hilltop shrines, one Hindu and one Muslim, are surrounded by successfully sustained groves. Each shrine belongs to a distinct and demographically significant group with political clout. Vigilant devotees as much as fear of divine retribution effectively protect shrine environments from wood-hungry neighbors. The Nagdi River had offered both utility and beauty to the entire population, but its flow dwindled, choked on trash and sewage. Aware that an important part of shared environmental and cultural heritage was in dire peril, Jahazpur residents and local government made sporadic efforts to mobilize restoration, but it proved discouraging to sustain alignments across community and class. Recently, however, young shopkeepers collaborating across lines of difference have partially reversed the river's deterioration. Comparing discrepant ecological pasts and present of Jahazpur's hilltops and river shows diverse and shifting configurations at the emotional and volatile intersection of religion, politics and urban environments.
Undying histories: Washington Irving’s Gothic afterlives
Authors: Maurer Yael 
Published: September 2017

This chapter examines Irving’s 1824 story ‘The Adventure of the German Student’ alongside his two earlier tales, ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ and ‘Rip Van Winkle’, focusing on Irving’s radical rethinking of the historical tale as a site of ghostly returns. The presence of death and ghostly figures at the heart of foundational historical moments makes the telling and retelling of the historical tale a fraught endeavour. Irving’s seemingly harmless ‘ghost stories’ are in effect radical reinventions of ‘History’ as a constant problem to be grappled with in the here and now. In ‘The Adventure of the German Student’, the figure of the guillotine offers a prime symbol for this deathly presence at the heart of the historical event, casting it as always already horrific and showcasing History’s deadly and beheading forces at work on the individual and the collective alike.
Selected nutritional habits of teenagers associated with overweight and obesity
Authors: Zalewska Magdalena , Maciorkowska Elżbieta 
Published: September 2017

IntroductionA balanced diet is at the heart of healthy growth and development of children and youth, whereas inappropriate eating habits considerably influence the incidence of disorders connected with nutrition, including overweight and obesity. This paper aims at studying nutritional factors of 18-year-old secondary school youth in the urban environment and their effect on the incidence of overweight and obesity.Materials and methodsThe survey was conducted among 1,999 secondary school students chosen at random. The research tool consisted an original survey questionnaire. The measurements of respondents’ height and body mass provided data for calculating the body mass index.Results and conclusionThe percentage of youth with deficient body mass was estimated at 8.4%. The percentage of normal weight students in the surveyed group was estimated at 77.6%. Overweight and obesity characterized 14.0% of the total number. As many as 21.8% of overweight and obese respondents would eat one or two meals as opposed to 16.8% of normal weight students. Three-fourths of the surveyed students would eat breakfast regardless of their nutritional habits. Lunch is eaten by 52.9% of normal weight 18-year-olds and 46.1% of overweight and obese students. The analysis of mealtimes suggests that overweight and obese students would have their breakfast and dinner at later hours than the rest of the surveyed. More than half of the participating students failed to eat lunch (53.9%), and one in four students within this group resigned from supper. Girls would eat fruit and vegetables more frequently than boys several times a day. The percentage of persons in the surveyed groups who would eat fast foods on a daily basis was similar regardless of their nutritional status. Sweetened carbonated beverages would be drunk more often by overweight and obese boys (81.2%) as compared with boys with proper body mass (75.8%). The same type of beverages would be popular with two-thirds of girls, and this result was similar regardless of their nutritional status. About 44.2% of overweight and obese girls and 20% of girls with proper body mass attempted to lose weight, and 5.7% of boys tried to go on a diet. Eating limitations were declared by 16.5% of overweight and obese boys and ca. 3% of normal weight boys.ConclusionWithin the surveyed group of youth, it was possible to indicate eating errors primarily consisting in irregular eating, too low a number of meals during the day, particularly skipping breakfast, which took place more frequently among overweight and obese students rather than normal weight ones. The survey points to the insufficient intake of vegetables and fruit as opposed to salty and sweet meals. It is essential to convey the knowledge on the causes of overweight and obesity as well as rules of a healthy diet as factors preventing civilization diseases.

Published: September 2017

Esse artigo apresenta a música como linguagem a ser usada em práticas Educomunicativas porque, na perspectiva dos ecossistemas comunicativos, carrega em si os significados de um tempo e de um espaço. Parte da concepção de Ecossistema Comunicativo proposta por Martín-Barbero, que apresenta como características as atuais formas de produção e comunicação do conhecimento em ambiências influenciadas por tecnologias de informação e comunicação, e saberes dispersos, difusos. Mostra que essas características difusas são compatíveis com a fluidez da música enquanto unidade capaz de comunicar e com práticas pedagógicas educomunicativas.
