Published: April 2023

Clean water reservoirs can become mosquito breeding grounds because water comes from rainwater, water wells, and taps, making them an ideal breeding ground for the Aedes aegypti mosquito vector of the dengue virus. This study aims to determine the hatchability of eggs and the growth of Aedes aegypti in three different types of brooding water in Sako Village, Palembang City. This study is experimental. The sample contains 1200 Aedes aegypti eggs collected from the Health Research and Development Center (Balitbangkes), the Ministry of Health of Indonesia in Baturaja, as well as three types of water collected from the homes of residents suffering from Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever in Sako Village, Sako District, Palembang City. Data was collected through direct observation for 5 days of egg hatching in the third water, which was repeated three times. The study's results were analyzed by the ANOVA, Honest Significant Difference test (BNJ), and R studio software version 4.1.2. The average number of mosquito eggs that hatched in well water was 77.67%, rainwater was 63,335, tap water was 54.67%, and control was 72.33%. There were significant differences in the effects of the three types of air on the larval and pupal stages of Aedes aegypti development. This study shows that Aedes aegypti mosquitos can breed into adults outside of clean water and water that contains soil, such as water wells.

Published: April 2023

Recently, transfer learning technique has proved to be powerful in enhancing development of deep learning methods for sickle cell disease (SCD) detection as a complement to the clinical method where a hemoglobin electrophoresis machine is used. This is evidenced by a number of models and algorithms with ≥90% prediction accuracy. From literature, most of the proposed methods are trained and tested on pre-trained deep learning models like VGG16, VGG19, ResNet, Inception_V3 and ReNet. However, training and testing of these methods are limited on one model and separate dataset which may lead to biased results due to implementation in variation of these models which affects results produced. To this end, there exists a need to evaluate the SCD models using the same dataset. Thus, in this research study, we carried out a comparative investigation and evaluated predominate pre-trained models used to detect SCD using the same dataset to ascertain which one has the best accuracy. We used secondary dataset obtained from an online dataset. In our study, we have discovered that Inception V3 yielded the highest accuracy of 97.3% followed by VGG19 at 97.0%, VGG16 at 91%, ResNet50 at 82% and ReNet at 67%, and the CNN-scratch model achieved 81% accuracy. Results from our study will aid researchers and industry practitioners to make decision on the best deep learning model to use while detecting SCD.

Published: April 2023

To address the ever-changing needs of the clients, MSEs have to potentiate their one-to-one interaction with their customers as a cornerstone for their marketing performance. This is because interactive marketing courtesy of interactive communication makes a real effort to reach customers and understand their needs and preferences leading to high levels of marketing performance. However, the use of collaborative technologies for interactive communication amongst MSEs in Kenya remains a challenge. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to establish the influence of interactive communication on the marketing performance of micro and small enterprises within Nyanza region, Kenya. Theory of relational market behaviour and a cross-sectional survey research design was adopted with a target population of 3,211 registered MSE owners in the Nyanza out of which sample size of 356 was selected using Yamanes (1967) formula. Data was collected using questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics using SPSS version 25.0. From findings intercreative communication explained 30.7 percent variation on marketing performance. A coefficient of .319 indicated that a unit change in interactive communication leads to .319 units of positive change in marketing performance. In conclusion interactive communication significantly predicts marketing performance at thus the rejection of the null hypothesis. There is need for MSEs to strengthen their interactive communication platforms for consumers to voice their requirements, perspectives, or opinions and support information exchange. They should also develop methods for collecting input from customers. The report also suggests that when dealing with consumers, MSEs should use positive language, be concise and clear, and personalize their interactions. Thus, it mandates the MSEs to scan the marketing environment for opportunities and align their capabilities of interactive marketing communications with the changes in the customer preferences for maximal output. The finding of this study can help major stakeholders in the MSE sector to strengthen interactive marketing communications for marketing performance.
The coupled system response to 250 years of freshwater forcing: Last Interglacial CMIP6–PMIP4 HadGEM3 simulations

Abstract. The lig127k-H11 simulation of the Paleoclimate Modelling Intercomparison Project (PMIP4) is run using the HadGEM3-GC3.1 model. We focus on the coupled system response to the applied meltwater forcing. We show here that the coupling between the atmosphere and the ocean is altered in the hosing experiment compared to a Last Interglacial simulation with no meltwater forcing applied. Two aspects in particular of the atmosphere–ocean coupling are found to be affected: Northern Hemisphere (NH) gyre heat transport and Antarctic sea ice area. We apply 0.2 Sv of meltwater forcing across the North Atlantic during a 250-year-long simulation. We find that the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is reduced by 60 % after 150 years of meltwater forcing, with an associated decrease of 0.2 to 0.4 PW in meridional ocean heat transport at all latitudes. The changes in ocean heat transport affect surface temperatures. The largest increase in the meridional surface temperature gradient occurs between 40–50∘ N. This increase is associated with a strengthening of 20 % in 850 hPa winds. The jet stream intensification in the Northern Hemisphere in return alters the temperature structure of the ocean by increasing the gyre circulation at the mid-latitudes and the associated heat transport by +0.1–0.2 PW, and it decreases the gyre circulation at high latitudes with a decrease of ocean heat transport of −0.2 PW. The changes in meridional surface temperature and pressure gradients cause the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) to move southward, leading to stronger westerlies and a more positive Southern Annual Mode (SAM) in the Southern Hemisphere (SH). The positive SAM influences sea ice formation, leading to an increase in Antarctic sea ice.
A remote-sensing-based dataset to characterize the ecosystem functioning and functional diversity in the Biosphere Reserve of the Sierra Nevada (southeastern Spain)

Published: April 2023

Abstract. Conservation biology faces the challenge of safeguarding the ecosystem functions and ecological processes (the water cycle, nutrients, energy flow, and community dynamics) that sustain the multiple facets of biodiversity. Characterization and evaluation of these processes and functions can be carried out through functional attributes or traits related to the exchanges of matter and energy between vegetation and the atmosphere. Based on this principle, satellite imagery can provide integrative spatiotemporal characterizations of ecosystem functions at local to global scales. Here, we provide a multitemporal dataset at protected-area level that characterizes the spatial patterns and temporal dynamics of ecosystem functioning in the Biosphere Reserve of the Sierra Nevada (Spain), captured through the spectral Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI, using product MOD13Q1.006 from the MODIS sensor) from 2001 to 2018. The database contains, at the annual scale, a synthetic map of Ecosystem Functional Type (EFT) classes from three Ecosystem Functional Attributes (EFAs): (i) descriptors of annual primary production, (ii) seasonality, and (iii) phenology of carbon gains. It also includes two ecosystem functional-diversity indices derived from the above datasets: (i) EFT richness and (ii) EFT rarity. Finally, it provides interannual summaries for all previously mentioned variables, i.e., their long-term means and interannual variability. The datasets are available at two open-source sites (PANGAEA: https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.924792; Cazorla et al., 2020a; interannual summaries at http://obsnev.es/apps/efts_SN.html, last access: 17 April 2023). This dataset provides scientists, environmental managers, and the public in general with valuable information on the first characterization of ecosystem functional diversity based on primary production developed in the Sierra Nevada, a biodiversity hotspot in the Mediterranean basin and an exceptional natural laboratory for ecological research within the Long-Term Social-Ecological Research (LTER) network.
Magnetic fabric analyses of basin inversion: a sandbox modelling approach
Authors: Schöfisch Thorben , Koyi Hemin , Almqvist Bjarne 
Published: April 2023

Abstract. A magnetic fabric analysis is a useful tool to display deformation in nature and in models. In this study, three sandbox models represent basin inversion above a velocity discontinuity (base plate). After complete deformation of each model, samples were taken in different parts of the models (along faults and areas away from faults) for magnetic fabric analysis. Model I, which simulates basin formation during extension, shows two kinds of magnetic fabric: an “undeformed”/initial fabric in areas away from faults and a normal fault-induced fabric with a magnetic foliation that tends to align with the fault surface. Models II and III were extended to the same stage as Model I but were subsequently shortened/inverted by 1.5 cm (Model II) and 4 cm (Model III). Both inverted models developed “thrusts” during inversion. The
thrusts show an alignment of magnetic foliation parallel to the fault
surfaces that depends on the maturity of the thrust. Our results highlight
that thrusting is more efficient in aligning the magnetic fabric along them
compared to normal faults. Moreover, models II and III reveal a magnetic
fabric overprint towards a penetrative strain-induced fabric (magnetic
lineation perpendicular to shortening direction) with increasing strain in
areas away from thrusts. Such overprint shows a gradual transition of a
magnetic fabric to a penetrative strain-induced fabric and further into a
thrust-induced fabric during shortening/inversion. In contrast, extension
(Model I) developed distinct magnetic fabrics without gradual overprint. In
addition, pre-existing normal faults are also overprinted to a penetrative
strain-induced fabric during model inversion. They define weak zones within
the main pop-up imbricate and steepen during model inversion. Steepening
influences the magnetic fabric at the faults and, in general, the strain
propagation through the model during inversion. The magnetic fabric extracted from the models presented here reflect the
different stages of basin development and inversion. This study is a first
attempt of applying magnetic fabric analyses on models simulating inverted
basins. This study illustrates the possibility of applying a robust tool,
i.e. magnetic fabric analyses, to sandbox models, whose initial,
intermediate, and final stages are well documented, to understand fabric
development in inverted tectonic regimes.

U-Pb DATING OF APATITE FROM SILVERMINES DEPOSIT, IRELAND: A MODEL FOR HYDROTHERMAL ORE GENESIS

Published: April 2023

AbstractUranium-Pb dating of unusual coarse-grained apatite crystals from hydrothermal dolostone breccia in the barite-rich Magcobar zone at the Silvermines deposit, Ireland, indicates an age of 331 ± 5.6 Ma for hydrothermal alteration. This age is in agreement with an Re-Os age on pyrite-sphalerite but differs from previous estimates that were based on palemomagnetism and sphalerite Rb-Sr geochronology at Silvermines. The new U-Pb age indicates the deposit largely formed epigenetically rather than as a synsedimentary deposit. The trace element composition of the apatite provides additional constraints on the geochemical evolution of the Silvermines hydrothermal system indicating that it was initiated with the expulsion of oxidizing fluids responsible for early hematite-silica precipitation. This was followed by the formation of hydrothermal dolostone breccias containing barite and the apatite dated here. The infiltration of metal-bearing hydrothermal fluids, likely derived from the basement, overlapped and followed the development of hydrothermal dolostone breccias, interacting with Carboniferous seawater during dolomitization and barite precipitation. Near-sea-floor biogenic activity, possibly enhanced due to escape of hydrothermal fluids, resulted in the reduction of seawater sulfate and formation of the sulfide-bearing fluids that facilitated the development of the Silvermines Zn-Pb deposit.
Role of transportation cost in housing affordability for the urban poor in the metropolitan cities in India- a case of Lucknow

Published: April 2023

Housing affordability is conventionally measured by the thumb rule of 30% of monthly income spent on housing. This thumb rule does not consider location, transportation cost, or accessibility. However, if a residence is far away and requires expensive travel, it is not actually affordable. Multiple planning goals can be accomplished by increasing the availability of inexpensive housing in convenient places, including decreasing transport costs, improving economic opportunities for underprivileged groups, lowering accident risk, conserving energy, and lowering pollution emissions. An H+T affordability index is a tool that is recently developed by researchers to assess the overall cost of housing and transportation relative to household income for different locations in a city. Researchers have recently developed a metric called the H+T affordability index to assess the entire cost of housing and transportation relative to household income for various areas of a city. This analysis is used in the study of Lucknow, India. The results show that households in suburban areas spend more than 57% of their monthly income on housing and transportation than those living in central zones and they spend only 45% of their income on these expenses. This aligns with the findings of other urban regions' studies. This demonstrates the viability of housing and transportation affordability analysis to discover inexpensive and sustainable development in developing countries.
