A MERCANTILIZAÇÃO DA NATUREZA: UM ESTUDO DE CASO – MUNICíPIO DE LAGOA SANTA/MG
Authors: Macedo Fernanda Fernandes , Diniz Alexandre Magno Alves 
Published: August 2014

O presente trabalho objetiva identificar as principais transformações paisagísticas ocorridas na última década em Lagoa Santa/MG, município que apresenta um complexo físico cênico de grande riqueza. Este trabalho buscou uma maior compreensão do processo de expansão urbana e sua relação com a mercantilização da natureza. A metodologia aplicada constou de uma revisão bibliográfica de autores que trabalham com a temática urbana, como Lefebvre, Damiani, Penna, Spósito, entre outros, e na identificação dos agentes de redefinição de uso da área. Demonstrou-se que o chacreamento, assim como o turismo, vêm causando impactos ambientais, em que pese o discurso ambiental de valorização do verde.
CARNAVALIZAÇÃO E COMPLEXIDADE TURÍSTICA: FORMAÇÃO DE PAISAGENS RITUAIS EM EVENTOS NO ESTADO DO CEARÁ
Authors: OLIVEIRA Christian Dennys 
Published: August 2014

O estudo da formação metropolitana de novos santuários, na cultura religiosa brasileira, tem despertado interessantes discussões na Geografia contemporânea. Um enfoque pouco explorado a respeito é a necessidade de transformar as manifestações de fé em espetáculos, para os devotos e os visitantes. Neste trabalho, a investigação dessa tendência da-se na observação dos processos que tornam esses rituais eventos espetaculares. Seja na construção de uma estética que imita a grandiosidade do carnaval brasileiro, seja no atendimento às demandas turísticas advindas dessa imitação. Refletindo sobre os mecanismos dessa carnavalização, o estudo acompanha em primeiro lugar as festas dos padroeiros e santos populares na cidade de Fortaleza e em importantes cidades do interior do estado do Ceará. Em uma segunda parte, é feita a abordagem a respeito dos aspectos turísticos que envolvem o crescimento desses eventos. O que demonstra o complexo jogo de interesses na valorização dos espaços urbanos ocupados por essas manifestações e a importância de interpretar a representação cultural dessa pratica turística com ferramentas teóricas inovadoras.

Authors: SCHLÖGL Emerli 
Published: August 2014

Trata-se de um estudo desenvolvido em tese de doutoramento na especificidade da Geografia da Religião. Este artigo aborda as espacialidades femininas da Fé Bahá’í, no recorte espacial que compreende o “Agrupamento Gralha Azul”. O agrupamento pesquisado envolve pessoas residentes nas cidades de Campo Largo, Curitiba, Colombo, Pinhais, Piraquara e São José dos Pinhais. A fim de se compreender como se conformam estas espacialidades femininas, homens e mulheres deste agrupamento foram entrevistados. Tomou-se como base teórica a análise desenvolvida por Carl Gustav Jung a respeito do funcionamento psíquico, o que inclui o inconsciente pessoal e coletivo, bem como a teoria dos arquétipos, deste modo estabeleceu-se um diálogo entre a Geografia da Religião e a Psicologia Analítica.

Guidelines to enhance communication during patient care transitions between healthcare settings have the potential to improve patient outcomes and satisfaction, as well as to decrease overall costs. In 2009, Healthcentric Advisors, the Medicare Quality Improvement Organization (QIO) for New England, collaborated with Rhode Island providers and stakeholders to develop communitywide standards for hospitals, the Safe Transitions Best Practice Measures for Hospitals and then implemented a hospital quality improvement intervention. As part of this intervention, 10 of the state’s 11 acute-care hospitals collected quarterly data and Healthcentric Advisors provided audit and feedback reports showing each facility’s progress and the state’s average performance. Using hospital-reported data on four best practice measures and Medicare claims data for Q2 2011-Q1 2013, we performed descriptive analyses of (1) inpatient-to-outpatient communication for all patients at the 10 participating hospitals, as measured by four best practice measures, and (2) state-wide all-cause, 30-day readmission rates per 1,000 fee-for-service (FFS) beneficiaries. Aggregate performance for the four best practice process measures increased by 5.5% to 217.6% for all patients who met eligibility criteria (p ≤ .001 for each measure) and the readmission rate decreased by 18.4% from 14.12 to 11.52 per 1,000 eligible FFS Medicare beneficiaries (p ≤ .001). These findings suggest that communitywide standards, such as the Safe Transitions Best Practice Measures for Hospitals, and audit and feedback interventions can successfully improve hospitals’ communication during patient care transitions between healthcare settings.

Mapping the Internal Structure of Hopewell Tumuli in the Lower Illinois River Valley through Archaeological Geophysics

Published: August 2014

AbstractArchaeologists from the Center for American Archeology (CAA) in Kampsville, Illinois, are engaged in a program to test the potential for ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistance tomography (ERT) to effectively document the internal structure of a variety of Middle (ca.2200–1550 B.P.) and Late Woodland (ca.1550–950 B.P.) mounds in the Lower Illinois River Valley (LIV). This project, embedded within ongoing CAA regional research efforts and the Arizona State University Kampsville Field School, demonstrates that both GPR and ERT permit the identification and measurement of significant internal mound structures. Key structural elements can be confidently identified in the geophysical data from the five test mounds, and excavation results can be conclusively linked with results of excavation in mounds that have been tested. This study opens the way for the development of a set of procedures for a regional research initiative in the LIV to understand structural variation between Middle and Late Woodland mounds using ground-based remote sensing methods as a primary source of data and thus minimizing invasive and destructive investigation techniques.
Moderate-Resolution Remote Sensing and Geospatial Analyses of Microclimates, Mounds, and Maize in the Northern Great Lakes

Published: August 2014

AbstractRemote sensing applications are increasingly common in archaeology but they often focus on high resolution imagery and direct archaeological site detection. Moderate spatial resolution remote sensing instruments, which have (near) daily repeat intervals, but contain less detailed spectral and spatial information, have been employed much less frequently in archaeology. However, moderate remote sensing data offer distinct advantages for archaeological research as they can be used to relate archaeological, ecological, and climactic data at vast spatial scales. To show this potential, we use moderate remote sensing data to examine the impact of landscape heterogeneity on the spread of indigenous maize horticulture in the northern Great Lakes during Late Precontact (ca. AD 1200-1600). Analyzing National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) imagery, we identify differences in freeze/thaw cycles across inland lakes in Michigan, showing that some large inland lakes produce a microclimatic amelioration, possibly extending the growing season for prehistoric maize cultivation. Conducting geospatial analyses, we find that burial mounds and maize cultivation practices were associated preferentially with larger inland lakes with microclimates. We could not have found these dynamic interrelationships between microclimates, burial mounds, and maize cultivation if not for both the frequent temporal imaging and large spatial coverage provided by moderate resolution remote sensing imagery.

AbstractThe use of airborne LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) in western Belize, Central America, has revolutionized our understanding of the spatial dynamics of the ancient Maya. This technology has enabled researchers to successfully demonstrate the large-scale human modifications made to the ancient tropical landscape, providing insight on broader regional settlement. Before the advent of this laser-based technology, heavily forested cover prevented full coverage and documentation of Maya sites. Mayanists could not fully recover or document the extent of ancient occupation and could never be sure how representative their mapped and excavated samples were relative to ancient settlement. Employing LiDAR in tropical and subtropical environments, like that of the Maya, effectively provides ground, as well as forest cover information, leading to a much fuller documentation of the complexities involved in the ancient human-nature interface. Airborne LiDAR was first flown over a 200 km2area of the archaeological site of Caracol, Belize, in April 2009. In April and May 2013 an additional 1,057 km2were flown with LiDAR, permitting the contextualization of the city of Caracol within its broader region and polity. The use of this technology has transformed our understanding of regional archaeology in the Maya area.
Regional-Scale Archaeological Remote Sensing in the Age of Big Data
Authors: Casana Jesse 
Published: August 2014

AbstractWith the ever expanding quantity of high-resolution aerial and satellite imagery available to archaeologists, numerous researchers have sought to address this “big data” challenge by developing automated methods to aid in the discovery and mapping of archaeological sites and features. This paper reviews several notable efforts to create automated discovery tools, including both spectral and object-based approaches, and highlights the difficulties these projects have encountered. Arguing instead for the critically important role of a human analyst in archaeological discovery, I illustrate interim results of an ongoing project that utilizes CORONA satellite imagery to document previously unknown sites in a 300,000 km2study area in the northern Fertile Crescent. The project is based on what I term “brute force” methods, relying on systematic exploration of imagery by trained analysts, and has now successfully created a database of more than 14,000 sites, some 10,000 of which are previously undocumented. Results of the project highlight the need for human intervention to make any archaeological discovery meaningful, suggesting that imagery analysis, like any act of archaeological investigation, requires an engaged, thoughtful and creative scholar.
Teachers' Autonomy
Authors: Parker Gemma (Nee Richardson) 
Published: August 2014

This literature review begins by considering the concept of autonomy. The focus narrows to teacher autonomy specifically and a range of conceptualisations are summarised. Its influences and impact are discussed and the role which teacher autonomy plays in the wider issue of teacher professionalism is addressed. Central influences, including the UK government and teachers themselves, are scrutinised and trends since the 1988 Education Act are discussed. Within the current context, this literature review is important. A two-tier system of autonomous academies and straight-jacketed maintained schools is developing and, amongst the profession, Government policy is unpopular. This article aims to raise teachers' awareness of an important issue, as well as highlight the need for future empirical research.

A CloudSat cloud object partitioning technique and assessment and integration of deep convective anvil sensitivities to sea surface temperature
Authors: Igel Matthew R. , Drager Aryeh J. , van den Heever Susan C. 
Published: August 2014

AbstractA cloud object partitioning algorithm is developed to provide a widely useful database of deep convective clouds. It takes contiguous CloudSat cloudy regions and identifies various length scales of clouds from a tropical, oceanic subset of data. The methodology identifies a level above which anvil characteristics become important by analyzing the cloud object shape. Below this level in what is termed the pedestal region, convective cores are identified based on reflectivity maxima. Identifying these regions allows for the assessment of length scales of the anvil and pedestal of deep convective clouds. Cloud objects are also appended with certain environmental quantities from European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts. Simple geospatial and temporal assessments show that the cloud object technique agrees with standard observations of local frequency of deep convective cloudiness. Deep convective clouds over tropical oceans play important roles in Earth's climate system. The newly developed data set is used to evaluate the response of tropical, deep convective clouds to sea surface temperature (SST). Several previously proposed responses are examined: the Fixed Anvil Temperature Hypothesis, the Iris Hypothesis, and the Thermostat Hypothesis. When the data are analyzed per cloud object, increasing SST is found to be associated with increased anvil thickness, decreased anvil width, and cooler cloud top temperatures. Implications for the corresponding hypotheses are discussed. A new response suggesting that the base temperature of deep convective anvils remains approximately constant with increasing SSTs is introduced. These cloud dependencies on SST are integrated to form a more comprehensive theory for deep convective anvil responses to SST.
Kriging method to perform scintillation maps based on measurement and GISM model
Authors: Hamel Pierrick , Sambou Diagna Charles , Darces Muriel , Beniguel Yannick , Hélier Marc 
Published: August 2014

AbstractThis paper presents an ionosphere scintillation mapping algorithm. The technique used is a Kriging technique, well known in geostatistics. It is an interpolation method applied to a set of random data, namely, in this application, to the intensity scintillation (S4) index. The paper focuses on the importance of the regression model used in the algorithm. The one‐dimensional and then the two‐dimensional problems have been investigated. One example of results combining measurement data recorded by two different networks in Peru is presented. The accuracy of the results has been verified using a cross‐validation technique, which consists in removing part of the known data set and comparing the interpolated results to it.
Spectral factorization using FFTs for large‐scale problems
Authors: Moir T. J. 
Published: August 2014

SummaryA method is provided for scalar systems, which uses FFTs and provides spectral factorization directly from the periodogram. The method is block recursive, providing better estimates as time progresses with more data available. Although spectral factorization is a mature technique, the current methods available are generally too slow to cope with acoustic problems of the scale discussed here.

Is the incidence of aliphatic amine‐induced occupational rhinitis and asthma underestimated?
Authors: Laborde‐Castérot Hervé , Rosenberg Nicole , Dupont Patricia , Garnier Robert 
Published: August 2014

BackgroundAmines, some of which are known to cause asthma, are frequently present in the work environment, but are rarely identified as being responsible for occupational rhinitis (OR) or asthma (OA). However, amine‐induced OR/OA may be underreported. To discuss this hypothesis, we report a series of patients with positive amine‐specific nasal provocation test (NPT).MethodsReview of the medical charts of 37 patients with OR (alone or associated with asthma), submitted to a NPT with an aliphatic or alicyclic amine (except for EDTA) present in a product used at work.ResultsMost patients worked in the healthcare sector or for a cleaning company. Amines were mostly present in cleaning products. Seven patients had a positive NPT. NPTs were positive for the following amines: bis(aminopropyl)laurylamine, C12‐C18 alkyldimethylamine oxides, bis(2‐hydroxyethyl)tallowamine oxides, 3‐dimethylaminopropylamine, 2,2′‐dimethyl‐4,4′‐methylene‐bis(cyclohexylamine), lauryldimethylamine oxide. NPTs were negative for the following amines: monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, isopropanolamine, triethylamine, triethylenetetramine, aminopropyltriethoxysilane, alkylpropylenediamineguanidine acetate.ConclusionsThe frequency of amine‐induced OR/OA may be underestimated, particularly when cleaning products are incriminated. Comprehensive investigation of all cases is mandatory to ensure an efficient prevention policy and consequently a good clinical and socio‐occupational prognosis of occupational respiratory disease.

Diese Synthesearbeiten richten sich zwar normalerweise auf spezifische Verbindungen, führen aber oft auch zu verallgemeinerbaren Konzepten. Historisch gut untersuchte Naturstoffklassen wie die Prostanoide, Indolalkaloide und Makrolidantibiotika bieten ausreichenden Beleg für den bleibenden Wert dieser kollektiven Aktivitäten. In diesem Kurzaufsatz berichten wir über polycyclische Diterpene, die aus Pflanzen der Gattung Isodon isoliert wurden, sowie über neuere Methoden und Strategien für ihre Totalsynthese.
Enantioselective Allylic Hydroxylation of ω‐Alkenoic Acids and Esters by P450 BM3 Monooxygenase
Authors: Neufeld Katharina , Henßen Birgit , Pietruszka Jörg 
Published: August 2014

AbstractChiral allylic alcohols of ω‐alkenoic acids and derivatives thereof are highly important building blocks for the synthesis of biologically active compounds. The direct enantioselective CH oxidation of linear terminal olefins offers the shortest route toward these compounds, but known synthetic methods are limited and suffer from low selectivities. Described herein is an enzymatic approach using the P450 BM3 monooxygenase mutant A74G/L188Q, which catalyzes allylic hydroxylation with high to excellent chemo‐ and enantioselectivities providing the desirable secondary alcohols.
Increasing the compatibility of poly(l‐lactide)/poly(para‐dioxanone) blends through the addition of poly(para‐dioxanone‐co‐l‐lactide)

Published: August 2014

ABSTRACTTo modify the mechanical properties of a poly(l‐lactide) (PLLA)/poly(para‐dioxanone) (PPDO) 85/15 blend, poly(para‐dioxanone‐co‐l‐lactide) (PDOLLA) was used as a compatibilizer. The 85/15 PLLA/PPDO blends containing 1–5 wt % of the random copolymer PDOLLA were prepared by solution coprecipitation. Then, the thermal, morphological, and mechanical properties of the blends with different contents of PDOLLA were studied via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and tensile testing, respectively. The DSC result revealed that the addition of PDOLLA into the blends only slightly changed the thermal properties by inhibiting the crystallization degree of the poly(l‐lactide) in the polymer blends. The SEM photos indicated that the addition of 3 wt % PDOLLA into the blend was ideal for making the interface between the PLLA and PPDO phases unclear. The tensile testing result demonstrated that the mechanical properties of the blends containing 3 wt % PDOLLA were much improved with a tensile strength of 48 MPa and a breaking elongation of 214%. Therefore, we concluded that the morphological and mechanical properties of the PLLA/PPDO 85/15 blends could be tailored by the addition of the PDOLLA as a compatibilizer and that the blend containing a proper content of PDOLLA had the potential to be used as a medical implant material. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
