Parenting Children with Learning Disabilities
Authors: Goss Diane B. , Adelizzi Jane Utley 
Published: May 2024

In a straightforward and empathetic tone, Adelizzi and Goss sensitively offer support to parents of children with learning disabilities who wish to see their children grow to their full potential. While juggling the complex expectations imposed upon them, parents often combat confusion, anger, fear, sadness, and frustration. This book will help diffuse these overwhelming feelings, empowering parents with the ability to provide the academic and personal support their children need to thrive.
Adelizzi and Goss, who contribute to a unique and highly successful collegiate program for adults with LD/ADD, demystify the very fuzzy world of LD terminology and theory and clarify the complicated process of diagnosis and treatment. They shed light on the way children and adolescents with learning disabilities function in the home environment, in social relationships, and at school. Parents will find new understanding and hope as the authors--with the collective voice of parents and children who deal with LD every day--lead them through the maze of issues they must confront.
The Persian Gulf Crisis

Published: May 2024

Ideal for student research, this book provides a reference guide to the war as well as seven essays analyzing a variety of aspects of the war and its consequences. The essays address questions such as: How did Saddam Hussein become such a major threat and how has he survived the war? How critical was George Bush in driving U.S. and global foreign policy during the crisis? How were key decisions made? Did the war fail or succeed in retrospect? What were its long-run political, economic, strategic and cultural effects? Can collective security work? Is the United Nations likely to be effective in future crises? What lessons can be learned from the crisis? Yetiv draws on primary documents and extensive interviews with many key players such as Colin Powell, James Baker, and Brent Scowcroft, and Arab and European leaders which cast new light on the event.
Following a list of key players and a complete chronology of events, seven essays offer a contemporary perspective on the war: Drama in the Desert; War Erupts in a Storm: The Continuation of Diplomacy by Air and on the Ground; From Truman to Desert Storm: The Rising Eagle in the Persian Gulf; President Bush and Saddam Hussein: A Classic Case of Individuals Driving History; The West Arms a Brutal Dictator: Can Proliferation Be Controlled in the Post-Cold War World?; The United Nations and Collective Security: Was the Gulf War a Model for the Future?; The Impact of the Persian Gulf War. Reference components include a narrative historical overview of the war and biographical profiles of each of the major players in the war. Twelve primary documents include speeches and UN resolutions. A glossary of terms particular to the war and an annotated bibliography complete the work. A selection of photos complements the text. This readable guide is a one-stop source for reference material and in-depth analysis of the key foreign policy event of the 1990s, and should appeal to a broad readership.

Kahlil Joseph and the Audiovisual Atlantic
Authors: Jackson Joe 
Published: May 2024

Kahlil Joseph has collaborated
with musicians FKA twigs, Flying Lotus, Sampha and Shabazz Palaces among many
others. He has directed numerous films, music videos and advertisements across
Africa, America and Europe. The award-winning filmmaker’s disruptive style
– which frequently merges visual representations of transcontinental
experiences with the countercultural energies of Afrodiasporic music –
challenges the Eurocentric biases underpinning Western media. At the same time, his
works generate various contradictions and tensions because they are themselves
products situated within an economic framework of neoliberal capitalism, at once
offering alternative ways of being while, simultaneously, participating in and
thereby sustaining the social structures that they otherwise seek to subvert and
dismantle.
This is the first book-length
study of Kahlil Joseph’s work. Distinguishing the artist’s personal
and professional personas, it traces Joseph’s career trajectory and artistic
output, emphasizing how the director’s construction of a multifaceted
filmmaking persona operates in tandem with his
artworks to challenge fixed, unidimensional or stable notions of identity.
Through biographical study and
deep examinations of the director’s respective transmedia artworks, this book
draws from various discussions shaped by Paul Gilroy’s ground-breaking text
The Black Atlantic (1993). By applying The Black Atlantic’s disruptive audiocentric ideas
to contemporary digital media forms generated by Kahlil Joseph and his peers alike,
this book challenges the latent Eurocentricity on which dominant theorizations of
‘modernity’ – as well as the overlapping fields of Film, Media
and Screen Studies – are grounded. In turn, it offers an alternative
framework for negotiating the paradoxes, contradictions and transnational flows of
our media-saturated present: namely, the Audiovisual Atlantic.

Abstract. This study presents an updated and homogenised ozone time series covering 34 years (1987–2020) of ozonesonde measurements at Lauder, New Zealand, and attributes vertically resolved ozone trends using a multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis and a chemistry–climate model (CCM). Homogenisation of the time series leads to a marked difference in ozone values before 1997, in which the ozone trends are predominantly negative from the surface to ∼ 30 km, ranging from ∼ −2 % per decade to −13 % per decade, maximising at around 12–13 km, in contrast to the uncorrected time series which shows no clear trends for this period. For the post-2000 period, ozone at Lauder shows negative trends in the stratosphere, maximising just below 20 km (∼ −5 % per decade) despite the fact that stratospheric chlorine and bromine from ozone-depleting substances (ODSs) have both been declining since 1997. However, the ozone trends change from negative for 1987–1999 to positive in the post-2000 period in the free troposphere. The post-2000 ozone trends calculated from the ozonesonde measurements compare well with those derived from the co-located low-vertical-resolution Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) ozone time series. The MLR analysis identifies that the increasing tropopause height, associated with CO2-driven dynamical changes, is the leading factor driving the continuous negative trend in lower-stratospheric ozone at Lauder over the whole observational period, whilst the ozone-depleting substances (ODSs) only contribute to the negative ozone trend in the lower stratosphere over the pre-1999 period. Meanwhile, stratospheric temperature changes contribute significantly to the negative ozone trend above 20 km over the post-2000 period. Furthermore, the chemistry–climate model (CCM) simulations that separate the effects of individual forcings show that the predominantly negative modelled trend in ozone for the 1987–1999 period is driven not only by ODSs but also by increases in greenhouse gases (GHGs), with large but opposing impacts from methane (positive) and CO2 (negative), respectively. Over the 2000–2020 period, the model results show that the CO2 increase is the dominant driver for the negative trend in the lower stratosphere, in agreement with the MLR analysis. Although the model underestimates the observed negative ozone trend in the lower stratosphere for both periods, it clearly shows that CO2-driven dynamical changes have played an increasingly important role in driving the lower-stratospheric ozone trends in the vicinity of Lauder.
Influence of irrigation on root zone storage capacity estimation
Authors: van Oorschot Fransje , van der Ent Ruud J. , Alessandri Andrea , Hrachowitz Markus 
Published: May 2024

Abstract. Vegetation plays a crucial role in regulating the water cycle through transpiration, which is the water flux from the subsurface to the atmosphere via roots. The amount and timing of transpiration is controlled by the interplay of seasonal energy and water supply. The latter strongly depends on the size of the root zone storage capacity (Sr), which represents the maximum accessible volume of water that vegetation can use for transpiration. Sr is primarily influenced by hydroclimatic conditions, as vegetation optimizes its root system in such a way that it guarantees water uptake and overcomes dry periods. Sr estimates are commonly derived from root zone water deficits that result from the phase shift between the seasonal signals of root zone water inflow (i.e., precipitation) and outflow (i.e., evaporation). In irrigated croplands, irrigation water serves as an additional input into the root zone. However, this aspect has been ignored in many studies, and the extent to which irrigation influences Sr estimates has never been comprehensively quantified. In this study, our objective is to quantify the influence of irrigation on Sr and identify the regional differences therein. To this end, we integrated two irrigation methods, based on the respective irrigation water use and irrigated area fractions, into the Sr estimation. We evaluated the effects compared with Sr estimates that do not consider irrigation for a sample of 4856 catchments globally with varying degrees of irrigation activity. Our results show that Sr consistently decreased when considering irrigation, with a larger effect in catchments with a larger irrigated area. For catchments with an irrigated area fraction exceeding 10 %, the median decrease in Sr was 19 and 23 mm for the two methods, corresponding to decreases of 12 % and 15 %, respectively. Sr decreased the most for catchments in tropical climates. However, the relative decrease was the largest in catchments in temperate climates. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, that irrigation has a considerable influence on Sr estimates over irrigated croplands. This effect is as strong as the effects of snowmelt that have previously been documented in catchments that have a considerable amount of precipitation falling as snow.
Cobalt mining and responsibility
Authors: Eskelinen Teppo , Khan Jawaria , Härri Anna 
Published: May 2024

The article discusses the meaning of “ethical” in the context of ethical goods. Terms like “ethical” or “responsible” have assumed new meanings when used to indicate the quality of a product or material. In the article, we analyse the transformed notion of “ethical”, its limits and extensions, using the case of cobalt mining and electronics as an illustrative example. As a non-substitutable material needed by the booming electronics industry and mined in horrendous conditions, the use of cobalt brings forth difficult questions about responsibility. We approach this question from the perspective of the meaning of “ethical” cobalt, and thereby ethical laptops. We use data collected in the context of a CSO project focused on “ethical laptops” and a literature review, and place this in the context of applied ethics. In conclusion, we show how the notion of “ethical products” is complicated by the various possible meanings of responsibility and difficult choices between disengagement from unethical practices and deeper engagement for changing these practices.

Restoration of Leather Wallpapers from the Collection of the State Hermitage Museum
Authors: Козлова Е.В. 
Published: May 2024

В Государственном Эрмитаже хранится большая коллекция образцов кожаных обоев. Различные виды последних с серебрением, тиснением, декорированные цветными лаками и красками, были распространены в XVI–XIX вв. в Западной Европе. Сложная технология изготовления таких обоев позволяла создавать многочисленные разнообразные долговечные рельефные орнаментальные полотна с имитацией позолоты. Две полосы обоев необходимо было привести к экспозиционному состоянию перед временной выставкой. Опыт реставрации этих предметов интересен примененными способами, обнаруженными следами предыдущих реставраций и интересными фактами отхождения от традиционной технологии изготовления.
The State Hermitage Museum houses a large collection of leather wallpapers. Various types of these wallpapers with silvering, embossing, decorated with coloured varnishes and paints were widespread in Western Europe from the 16th century to the 19th century. The complex technology of manufacturing of such wallpapers allowed for the creation of numerous diverse durable relief ornamental fabrics with imitation gilding. Two strips of wallpaper had to be brought to display condition before a temporary exhibition. The experience of restoring these items is interesting due to the methods used, traces of previous restorations discovered and interesting occurrences of deviation from traditional manufacturing techniques.

Применение термических методов для анализа содержания органического вещества в урбаноземах
Authors: Чагарова О.В. , Милинский А.Ю. , Косицына О.А. 
Published: May 2024

цели: цель исследования – определить содержание органического вещества в антропогенноизмененных почвах при помощи термических методов анализа. Методы. Использованы физико-химические методы анализа проб почвы, определены актуальная кислотность, зольность и органическое вещество по ГОСТ 26213-2021 и методом термогравиметрического анализа. Результаты. Показано, что содержания органических веществ в почвах методом термогравиметрии и по ГОСТ 26213-2021 отличаются не более чем на 15,4%, что, в частности, может быть связано с разложением неорганических веществ при длительной выдержке при температуре 525 ºС по методике ГОСТ. Тем не менее метод термогравиметрии дает информацию о температурах, при которых наблюдается максимальная скорость разложения. Выводы. Установлено, что методы термогравиметрии и по ГОСТ 26213-2021 дают разные результаты содержания органического углерода в почве в связи с разными температурами максимального разложения гумусовых кислот. Чем выше температура максимального разложения, тем меньше разлагается органических веществ при исследовании почв методом термогравиметрии.
objectives: the purpose of the study is to determine the content of organic matter in anthropogenic soils using thermal analysis methods. Methods. Physico-chemical methods of soil sample analysis were used, the actual acidity, ash content and organic matter were determined according to GOST 26213-2021 and by thermogravimetric analysis. Results. It is shown that the content of organic substances in soils by thermogravimetry and according to GOST 26213-2021 differ by no more than 15.4%, which, in particular, may be due to the decomposition of inorganic substances during prolonged exposure at a temperature of 525 ° C according to the GOST method. Nevertheless, the thermogravimetry method provides information about the temperatures at which the maximum decomposition rate is observed. Conclusions. It has been established that the methods of thermogravimetry and according to GOST 26213-2021 give different results of the content of organic carbon in the soil due to different temperatures of maximum decomposition of humic acids. The higher the maximum decomposition temperature, the less organic substances decompose when studying soils by thermogravimetry.
