This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the impact of autonomous vehicles (AVs) on urban landscapes, focusing on traffic management, urban planning, and environmental sustainability in the United States. The main objectives were to explore the evolution of AV technology, assess its current state and innovations, and understand its implications for urban environments. Employing a systematic literature review and content analysis, the study analyzed data from peer-reviewed academic journals, industry reports, and government publications, focusing on literature published from 2007 to 2023. Key findings indicate that AVs have the potential to significantly alter urban traffic dynamics, reducing congestion and enhancing road safety. In urban planning, AVs necessitate a reevaluation of infrastructure, potentially leading to more efficient land use and reduced parking needs. Environmentally, AVs offer the promise of reduced emissions and improved air quality, especially when integrated with electric vehicle technology. However, these benefits are contingent upon overcoming technological challenges, ensuring public safety, and developing effective regulatory frameworks. The study envisions a future urban landscape where AVs contribute to more efficient, safer, and environmentally sustainable environments. It recommends comprehensive policy and industry strategies for the successful integration of AVs, emphasizing the need for standardized safety regulations, incentivizing AV adoption, and ensuring equitable access. Concluding insights suggest that while AVs hold significant potential for reshaping urban mobility, their successful integration requires addressing technological, policy, and societal challenges. Future research should focus on the long-term impacts of AVs on urban landscapes, exploring ethical and legal implications, and their role in broader sustainability goals.

Accounting for hydroclimatic properties in flood frequency analysis procedures
Authors: Reinders Joeri B. , Munoz Samuel E. 
Published: January 2024

Abstract. Flood hazard is typically evaluated by computing extreme flood probabilities from a flood frequency distribution following nationally defined procedures in which observed peak flow series are fit to a parametric probability distribution. These procedures, also known as flood frequency analysis, typically recommend only one probability distribution family for all watersheds within a country or region. However, large uncertainties associated with extreme flood probability estimates (>50-year flood or Q50) can be further biased when fit to an inappropriate distribution model because of differences in the tails between distribution families. Here, we demonstrate that hydroclimatic parameters can aid in the selection of a parametric flood frequency distribution. We use L-moment diagrams to visually show the fit of gaged annual maxima series across the United States, grouped by their Köppen climate classification and the precipitation intensities of the basin, to a general extreme value (GEV), log normal 3 (LN3), and Pearson 3 (P3) distribution. Our results show that in real space basic hydroclimatic properties of a basin exert a significant influence on the statistical distribution of the annual maxima. The best-fitted family distribution shifts from a GEV towards an LN3 distribution across a gradient from colder and wetter climates (Köppen group D, continental climates) towards more arid climates (Köppen group B, dry climates). Due to the diversity of hydrologic processes and flood-generating mechanisms among watersheds within large countries like the United States, we recommend that the selection of distribution model be guided by the hydroclimatic properties of the basin rather than relying on a single national distribution model.

THE INFLUENCE OF A COGNITIVE-BEHAVIORAL COUNSELLING PROGRAM ON MARITAL ADJUSTMENT IN SUDAN
Authors: Dafa Allah Ahmed Abdelbagi , Elbalola Hasona Aisha 
Published: January 2024

This study aims to examine the effects of a cognitive behavioral therapy counseling program on couples' adjustment and their relationship to variables such as their marital status, age, and number of children. In a semi-experimental design, a purposive sampling procedure was used to select a sample of ten couples attended counseling centers in Khartoum State who ranged in age from 20 to 50 years. T-tests, Cronbach's alpha, and Pearson's correlation coefficients in SPSS were used to analyze data collected by the basic information sheet, marital adjustment scale, and counseling program. Based on the study's most important findings, the program proved significantly effective at improving marital adjustment, and there was no significant correlation between its effectiveness and the length of the marriage, age, or number of children of the couples. As a result, it can be applied to couples of any age or marital status as well as couples with different numbers of children and marital durations. To minimize marriage problems and reduce the sensitivity or reluctance to visit counseling centers, the researcher recommends raising society's awareness about the importance of attending counseling centers.

Patient safety as a public health problem
Authors: Estrada-Orozco Kelly , Gaitán-Duarte Hernando , Eslava-Schmalbach Javier 
Published: January 2024

Patient safety is an essential component of quality healthcare, which is what the general population is constantly demanding worldwide. Consequently, ensuring quality healthcare should not be a matter of clinical interest only but a public health priority so that all actions planned or implemented may have an impact at all levels and ensure intersectoral support to help the population remain safe when seeking and receiving health services. The definition and implementation of patient safety are currently circumscribed to the institutional setting. This article aims to present data that can help put into perspective the existing gaps pertaining to patient safety definition and fields of action, and conclude that there is room to work in public health in order to close those gaps. This requires understanding the complexities of the interactions between determinants of harm outside the physical setting where care is provided. These include community-level work, incorporation of knowledge from other disciplines in order to account for coverage, access and health outcomes, design strategies to counteract the impact that the absence of effective patient and people safety measures have on the general population and, in particular, on people differentially affected by the social determinants of health.
Using Neural Networks (Back Propagation Network) to Determine the Variables Affecting Water Pollution in the Euphrates River
Authors: Musa Ons , Ridha Sabah 
Published: January 2024

With the economy's steady growth and rapid development of modern industrial technology, environmental problems have increased. Water pollution is one of the complex problems that most countries of the world suffer from, especially developing countries, because it contains various pollutants, some of which can decompose as organic pollutants, and some of which are difficult to decompose, such as toxic heavy metals. In Iraq, according to the Iraqi Ministry of Environment - Water Pollution Division statistics for the year 2018, specifically the waters of the Euphrates River, a group of variables affecting the water quality of this river has been identified. The scarcity of water and the accumulation of various wastes in the water networks and on the banks of the Euphrates River also contributed greatly to the increase in the problem of pollution. The continued poor quality of the water has led to severe environmental health concerns. The research aims to shed light on the most important variables affecting the pollution of the waters of the Euphrates River and the water quality and quality in this river. The principal components analysis and the neural network (backpropagation algorithm) were used to determine the variables that affect the pollution of the Euphrates River water. They were applied to real data from the Ministry of Environment for the Euphrates water pollution.	One of the most important conclusions we reached when using statistical methods was that the variable (DO2) is not significant and does not affect the pollution of the Euphrates River either. Still, When Using the algorithm, we get that all these variables (TH, TDS, EC) do not affect the water pollution of the Euphrates River.
Radiocarbon dated episode of Bronze Age slope instability in the south-eastern Burren, county Clare
Authors: Moles Richard , Moles Norman , Leahy James J. 
Published: January 2024

While previously reported evidence from lacustrine sediments has linked Burren soil erosion to anthropogenic forest clearance, there have been no previous accounts of dateable episodes of prehistoric slope instability based on evidence from terrestrial sites. Described here is the occurrence of charcoal buried lo a depth of C. 2m within diamicton at a site on Knockanes hill close to Mullach Mór hill in the south-eastern Burren. An AMS radiocarbon dale places the formation of this charcoal in the Bronze Age, contemporary with exceptionally high rates of soil erosion and forest clearance in a nearby lake catchment. EMS images indicate that the charcoal is of fine grained deciduous wood, most probably hazel (Corylus avellana) but perhaps birch (Betula spp.). Results of analyses of diamictons present in the vicinity of the charcoal support the view that the pattern of occurrence of diamictons in the present day Burren landscape is in part the product of prehistoric mass movement.

The Little Big House at Gweedore: inscribing sociality and space in north-west Ireland, 1842
Authors: James Kevin J. 
Published: January 2024

The visitors’ book is a neglected source for the study of travel and hotel history in Ireland. Inscriptions from the Gweedore Hotel Book from 1842 to 1859 illuminate how guests negotiated relationships with each other and with the landlord, Lord George Hill, and how they narrated spaces inside and outside the hotel on his estate in Co. Donegal. A close textual analysis reveals how the hotel was depicted as a liminal space, straddling the public and private worlds of the public hostelry and the stately Irish Big House. Acts of reading and inscription linked practices at the rural hotel to broader cultures of Victorian travel. At the same time, they also reveal local influences over the articulation of self and other on one of mid-Victorian Ireland’s most famous ‘model’ estates. These layered contexts are critical to understanding the politics which surrounded the hotel book particularly the voices it privileged, and those it suppressed.
