description: The consequences of COVID-19 on the economy and agriculture have raised many concerns about global food security, especially in developing countries. Given that food security is a critical component that is affected by global crises, beside the limited studies carried out on the macro-impacts of COVID-19 on food security in Iran, this paper is an attempt to address the dynamic impacts of COVID-19 on food security along with economic and environmental challenges in Iran. For this purpose, a survey was conducted with the hypothesis that COVID-19 has not affected food security in Iran. To address this fundamental hypothesis, we applied the systematic review method to obtain the evidence. Various evidences, including indices and statistics, were collected from national databases, scientific reports, field observations, and interviews. Preliminary results revealed that COVID-19 exerts its effects on the economy, agriculture, and food security of Iran through six major mechanisms, corresponding to a 30% decrease in the purchasing power parity in 2020 beside a significant increase in food prices compared to 2019. On the other hand, the expanding environmental constraints in Iran reduce the capacity of the agricultural sector to play a crucial role in the economy and ensure food security, and in this regard, COVID-19 forces the national programs and budget to combat rising ecological limitations. Accordingly, our study rejects the hypothesis that COVID-19 has not affected food security in Iran.

description: The idea that unemployment is the principal cause of poverty among those of workforce age has been a central finding of poverty research. The precise nature of this key relationship has changed along with changes in the labour market, but unemployment remains a perennial cause of poverty among the working-age population. This paper, written in appreciation of the contribution made by Professor Peter Sheehan to work in the area, examines the links that exist between employment, unemployment, joblessness and poverty against the background of the growing diversity of labour market trends. After briefly reviewing the recent controversy that has surrounded the measurement of poverty trends in Australia, the paper examines the complex empirical links between income poverty, the employment status of individuals and the incidence of joblessness among households. A major finding is that a full-time job is needed to produce sufficient income to raise people above the poverty line. These results are then supplemented by an analysis that combines evidence of low-income with evidence of hardship or deprivation. The use of direct deprivation or hardship measures to supplement the indirect income-based measures of poverty does not affect the central conclusion that employment can only make substantial in-roads into poverty if it is full-time. Overall, the results demonstrate that unemployment continues to be a major cause of poverty in Australia and that employment only provides an escape when it comes in the form of a full-time job. Because many of the new jobs created over the last two decades have been either part-time or casual, they have not been sufficient, by themselves, to protect workers and their families from poverty.

Social Policy

description: This Diary summarises the legislative and administrative changes made in the social policy field during 1987 and 1988 by the Commonwealth government. The Diary provides a ready reference for research workers, and can also be used as a succinct and factual account of policy during the years covered. For the first time, education policies are covered by the Diary. This issue also sees the separation of community services from social security into a separate new section in line with the division in December 1984 of departmental and ministerial responsibilities. The Diary follows the format of the 'diaries' prepared by Helen Ferber and published in R.B. Scotton and Helen Ferber (eds), Public Expenditures and Social Policy in Australia (2 volumes, Melbourne, Longman Cheshire, 1978 and 1980). These 'diaries' covered the years 1972 to 1978. The first Diary in the present series covered events for the calendar year 1980, with the events of each year since then being covered by an annual Diary, copies of which are available from the sponsoring Institutes and Centre. Events for the calendar year 1979 were recorded in supplements to the first three issues of the present series.

description: Visualizing interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) mesh is important to understand cell behavior and regulatory mechanisms by the extracellular environment. However, long term visualization of three-dimensional (3D) matrix structures remains challenging mainly due to photobleaching or blind spots perpendicular to the imaging plane. Here, we combine label-free light-sheet scattering microcopy (LSSM) and fluorescence microscopy to solve these problems. We verified that LSSM can reliably visualize structures of collagen matrices from different origin including bovine, human and rat tail. The quality and intensity of collagen structure images acquired by LSSM did not decline with time. LSSM offers abundant wavelength choice to visualize matrix structures, maximizing combination possibilities with fluorescently-labelled cells, allowing visualizing of long-term ECM-cell interactions in 3D. Interestingly, we observed ultrathin thread-like structures between cells and matrix using LSSM, which were not observed by normal fluorescence microscopy. Transient local alignment of matrix by cell-applied forces can be observed. In summary, LSSM provides a powerful and robust approach to investigate the complex interplay between cells and ECM.

This species has been extensively described by others, and the present work illustrates many aspects of its morphology in comparison to D. carrolli n. sp. Therefore, we have chosen to not include a redescription here.
Material examined. D. rhopaloa line BaVi 067 and BaVi 5327 from Vietnam, Hanoi Ba Vì, near Vân Hòa [21°04′N, 105°22′E], March 2005, H. Takamori leg.
Previous records. Malaysia: Borneo, Sabah, Mt. Kinabalu (Takada, Momma, & Shima, 1973). India: Meghalaya, Shillong (Singh & Gupta, 1977); Madras, Nilgiri, Coonoor (type of D. coonorensis Reddy & Krishnamurthy, 1973). Thailand: Khao Yai [14°26’21.03”N 101°22’20.95”E], type locality. Papua New Guinea: Morobe Province, Mt Kaindi, Kunai Creek (1500 m.), 3.XI.1977 (H. Carson leg.) (Okada & Carson, 1983). Okada & Carson describe these specimens from Papua New Guinea as “exceedingly” different from those of Java, being in particular darker. The identity of these specimens is therefore questionable, and they may be assigned to D. carrolli n. sp., or to another new taxon. Republic of Indonesia: Java, (Okada & Carson, 1983). Vietnam:
Vietnam, Hanoi Ba Vì, near Vân Hòa [21°04′N, 105°22′E], IX.2004 (line BaVi5327) and III.2005 (line BaVi067) (H. Takamori leg.) (Chen et al., 2014; Setoguchi et al., 2014).
Brake & Bächli (2008) also report D. rhopaloa from and Sri Lanka, without additional details.

description: In this work, we present a versatile surface engineering strategy by the combination of mussel adhesive peptide mimicking and bioorthogonal click chemistry. The main idea reflected in this work derived from a novel mussel-inspired peptide mimic with a bioclickable azide group (i.e., DOPA4-azide). Similar to the adhesion mechanism of the mussel foot protein (i.e., covalent/noncovalent comediated surface adhesion), the bioinspired and bioclickable peptide mimic DOPA4-azide enables stable binding on a broad range of materials, such as metallic, inorganic, and organic polymer substrates. In addition to the material universality, the azide residues of DOPA4-azide are also capable of a specific conjugation of dibenzylcyclooctyne- (DBCO-) modified bioactive ligands through bioorthogonal click reaction in a second step. To demonstrate the applicability of this strategy for diversified biofunctionalization, we bioorthogonally conjugated several typical bioactive molecules with DBCO functionalization on different substrates to fabricate functional surfaces which fulfil essential requirements of biomedically used implants. For instance, antibiofouling, antibacterial, and antithrombogenic properties could be easily applied to the relevant biomaterial surfaces, by grafting antifouling polymer, antibacterial peptide, and NO-generating catalyst, respectively. Overall, the novel surface bioengineering strategy has shown broad applicability for both the types of substrate materials and the expected biofunctionalities. Conceivably, the “clean” molecular modification of bioorthogonal chemistry and the universality of mussel-inspired surface adhesion may synergically provide a versatile surface bioengineering strategy for a wide range of biomedical materials.

Many of these external challenges are being felt in Asia. Even if force can be avoided on the Korean peninsula, escalating tariff competition between the United States and China may signal deep challenges for the rules of the road that suit New Zealand. As the wider storm clouds grow, the Ardern government’s focus on the South Pacific in cooperation with Australia offers some respite. But the Labour–New Zealand First coalition may complicate the delivery of predictable and creditable foreign policy stances.

We recommend that policy and legislation include stronger instruments for shared decision making and specific funding for iwi, hapü and mana whenua to strengthen the rangatiratanga sphere. It is acknowledged that the barriers and solutions are interconnected and will rely on good relationship building and trust, power sharing and knowledge sharing, and policy and legislation that allows for and supports the rangatiratanga sphere as its own distinct space for tikanga-based governance and jurisdiction.

New Zealanders’ responses allow identification of some common themes. Some of these themes, perhaps, come as a surprise: generally, a plurality of people were positive about the lockdown, particularly in terms of the benefits of time with their family, with a majority having either positive or mixed/neutral feelings. Less surprisingly, work was also on a lot of people’s minds. The results also illustrate a wide diversity of human experiences during the lockdown.
The Dust Emission Potential of Agricultural‐Like Fires—Theoretical Estimates From Two Conceptually Different Dust Emission Parameterizations

description: Agricultural fires affecting grass-, crop- and shrublands represent a major, mainly anthropogenically driven disturbance of many ecosystems. In addition to emissions of carbonaceous aerosol, they were found to inject also mineral dust particles into the atmosphere. The fires can significantly modulate the near-surface wind patterns so that conditions suitable for dust emission occur. However, the exact emission mechanism has not been investigated so far, but is inevitable for the understanding of its impacts on the Earth system. Here, we test two dust emission parameterizations representing saltation bombardment (SALT) and direct aerodynamic dust entrainment by (convective) turbulence (convective turbulent dust emission, CTDE) in the context of fire-modulated wind patterns using large-eddy simulation with an idealized setup to represent typical agricultural fire settings. Favorable aerodynamic preconditions for the initialization of both emission processes are found, however, with sometimes significant differences in dust emission flux depending on specific wind and fire properties. The strong fire-induced modulations of the instantaneous momentum flux suggest that CTDE can be a very potent emission process in the fire vicinity. Nevertheless, fire impacts on the friction velocity can be significant too, so that dust emission through SALT is facilitated as well. Ultimately, the specific aerodynamic conditions within pyro-convectively modulated wind patterns require the development of a parameterization that can describe these unique fire-related dust emissions and their influencing factors properly. This will finally allow for considering fire-induced dust emissions in aerosol-atmosphere models and an investigation of its atmospheric impacts such as on the radiation budget.

Prior attempts to pass gun safety legislation have been thwarted by groups purporting to represent New Zealand gun owners. However, the swift and decisive political actions in the immediate wake of the attack signalled greater political appetite for meaningful change. Using unique data collected immediately in the wake of the Christchurch attack, this study examines who gun owners are, New Zealanders’ trust in gun owners and the pro-gun lobby, and whether trust differs by gun ownership and political ideology.

description: Several episodes of extreme precipitation excess and extreme precipitation deficit, with considerable economic and social impacts, have occurred in Europe and in Poland in the last decades. However, the changes of related indices exhibit complex variability. This paper analyses changes in indices related to observed abundance and deficit of precipitated water in Poland. Among studied indices are maximum seasonal 24-h precipitation for the winter half-year (Oct.–March) and the summer half-year (Apr.–Sept.), maximum 5-day precipitation, maximum monthly precipitation and number of days with intense or very intense precipitation (respectively, in excess of 10 mm or 20 mm per day). Also, the warm-seasonal maximum number of consecutive dry days (longest period with daily precipitation below 1 mm) was examined. Analysis of precipitation extremes showed that daily maximum precipitation for the summer half-year increased for many stations, and increases during the summer half-year are more numerous than those in the winter half-year. Also, analysis of 5-day and monthly precipitation sums show increases for many stations. Number of days with intense precipitation increases especially in the north-western part of Poland. The number of consecutive dry days is getting higher for many stations in the summer half-year. Comparison of these two periods: colder 1961–1990 and warmer 1991–2015, revealed that during last 25 years most of statistical indices, such as 25th and 75th percentiles, median, mean and maximum are higher. However, many changes discussed in this paper are weak and statistically insignificant. The findings reported in this paper challenge results based on earlier data that do not include 2007–2015.

description: Policy is improved when those most affected are involved in the policy development process. This article describes the approach taken by the Office of the Children’s Commissioner and Oranga Tamariki – Ministry for Children to engaging children and young people in the development of the Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy, a cross-government initiative designed to drive action on child and youth wellbeing. It outlines key findings from the engagements and describes the impacts those insights had. It also identifies critical enablers of the project and key lessons learned. We found the legislative changes which required children to be consulted and broader attitudinal changes towards involving children and young people in policymaking processes were key enablers. We found the project had a tangible impact not only on the Child and Youth Wellbeing Strategy itself, but also for the children and young people involved and their communities, and on attitudes towards children and young people’s voices in general. We hope successive governments will continue to engage with children and young people to measure progress on child and youth wellbeing against what they have said matters most to them.

description: Surface remeshing plays a significant role in computer graphics and visualization. Numerous surface remeshing methods have been developed to produce high quality meshes. Generally, the mesh quality is improved in terms of vertex sampling, regularity, triangle size and triangle shape. Many of such surface remeshing methods are based on Delaunay refinement. In particular, some surface remeshing methods generate high quality meshes by performing the planar Delaunay refinement on the conformal uniformization domain. However, most of these methods can only handle topological disks. Even though some methods can cope with high-genus surfaces, they require partitioning a high-genus surface into multiple simply connected segments, and remesh each segment in the parameterized domain. In this work, we propose a novel surface remeshing method based on uniformization theorem using dynamic discrete Yamabe flow and Delaunay refinement, which is capable of handling surfaces with complicated topologies, without the need of partitioning. The proposed method has the following merits: Dimension deduction, it converts all 3D surface remeshing to 2D planar meshing; Theoretic rigor, the existence of the constant curvature measures and the lower bound of the corner angles of the generated meshes can be proven. Experimental results demonstrate the efficiency and efficacy of our proposed method.

description: Pfendericonus mindanaoensis Matsumaru 2017
Fig. 1 a-b
This species was described by Matsumaru (2017) from the Island of Mindanao, Philippine Archipelago and two specimens were figured. The two illustrated specimens of Chrysalidina sp. (Matsumaru, 2017, pl. 4, figs. 10-11) are here also considered to belong to P. mindanaoensis. The description includes a low-conical test (almost globular; diameter up to 1.36 mm) displaying wedge-like chambers and a test diameter up to 1.36 mm. The age was indicated as Selandian (= “Tertiary a0 stage of larger foraminifera” senus Matsumaru). Comparing the assemblage of this stage which includes species such as Broeckinella arabica Henson (=? Vania anatolica Sirel & Gündüz), Coskinon rajkae Hottinger & Drobne, Idalina sinjarica Grimsdale (Assemblage 2 in Matsumaru, 2017), a Thanetian age is more likely (e.g., Pignatti et al., 2008; Di Carlo et al., 2010).

Κινητήρες εσωτερικής καύσης

description: Η ιστορία των μεταφορών είναι συνυφασμένη με την ύπαρξη της ανθρώπινης ζωής [/την εξέλιξη της ανθρωπότητας]. Ο πρωτόγονος άνθρωπος μετακινούνταν βαδίζοντας σε αναζήτηση τροφής ή από περιέργεια να γνωρίσει το περιβάλλον του ή ακόμη και για την προστασία του από διάφορους φυσικούς κινδύνους. Γρήγορα, όμως, αντιλήφθηκε ότι οι αντοχές του για να διανύσει μεγάλες αποστάσεις ήταν περιορισμένες. Οι αδυναμίες αυτές οδήγησαν τον άνθρωπο σε αναζήτηση διαφόρων μέσων μεταφοράς. Στην εποχή μας ο άνθρωπος κατάφερε να αναπτύξει την τεχνολογία και να κατασκευάσει μηχανήματα ικανά να αναπτύσσουν μεγάλη ταχύτητα ή να μεταφέρουν μεγάλες ποσότητες εμπορευμάτων ή μεγάλο αριθμό επιβατών. Μία από τις σημαντικότερες εφευρέσεις του ανθρώπου, αλλά και μία από τις πολυπλοκότερες κατασκευές, είναι το αεροπλάνο. Στη συγκεκριμένη διπλωματική εργασία θα μελετήσουμε τα είδη και τις εφαρμογές των αεροσκαφών. Αρχικά, θα γίνει μία εκτενής μελέτη στα είδη των ιπτάμενων οχημάτων και στους κινητήρες αυτών. Στη συνέχεια, στο δεύτερο κεφάλαιο θα ακολουθήσει η μελέτη των κινητήρων εσωτερικής καύσης και οι αρχές λειτουργίας των θερμικών μηχανών. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, θα αναφερθούν τα κύρια μέρη του αεριοστρόβιλου και τα βασικά χαρακτηριστικά αυτών. Εν κατακλείδι, γίνεται αναφορά στη λειτουργία και τη χρησιμότητα του αερόστατου, καθώς και στις επιπτώσεις που έχει στο περιβάλλον με βάση τις εφαρμογές του.

description: Der kolumbianische Bürgerkrieg Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts, die Violencia, und die zu seiner Beendigung ergriffenen Maßnahmen prägen bis in die Gegenwart Politik und Gesellschaft des südamerikanischen Landes. Für den Ausbruch des Bürgerkrieges waren die Differenzen zwischen der Liberalen und der Konservativen Partei von zentraler Bedeutung. Lukas Rehm untersucht in einem ersten Schritt aus einer kulturhistorischen Perspektive, auf Basis welcher Argumentationslogiken der als fundamental wahrgenommene Gegensatz zwischen Liberalen und Konservativen geschaffen wurde. In einem zweiten Schritt analysiert er Genese und Verlauf des Bürgerkriegs aus regionalhistorischem Blickwinkel und auf Basis weitgehend erstmalig ausgewerteter Quellen in dem departamento Tolino.

description: Height-resolved air mass source attribution is crucial for the evaluation of profiling ground-based remote sensing observations, especially when using lidar (light detection and ranging) to investigate different aerosol types throughout the atmosphere. Lidar networks, such as EARLINET (European Aerosol Research Lidar Network) in the frame of ACTRIS (Aerosol, Clouds and Trace Gases), observe profiles of optical aerosol properties almost continuously, but usually, additional information is needed to support the characterization of the observed particles. This work presents an approach explaining how backward trajectories or particle positions from a dispersion model can be combined with geographical information (a land cover classification and manually defined areas) to obtain a continuous and vertically resolved estimate of an air mass source above a certain location. Ideally, such an estimate depends on as few as possible a priori information and auxiliary data. An automated framework for the computation of such an air mass source is presented, and two applications are described. First, the air mass source information is used for the interpretation of air mass sources for three case studies with lidar observations from Limassol (Cyprus), Punta Arenas (Chile) and ship-borne off Cabo Verde. Second, air mass source statistics are calculated for two multi-week campaigns to assess potential observation biases of lidar-based aerosol statistics. Such an automated approach is a valuable tool for the analysis of short-term campaigns but also for long-term data sets, for example, acquired by EARLINET.

description: The junction of the Dinaric and Hellenic mountain belts hosts a trans-orogenic normal fault system (Shkoder-Peja Normal Fault, SPNF) that has accommodated oroclinal bending, as well as focused basin formation and drainage of the Drin River catchment. Analysis of fluvial morphology of this catchment reveals higher values of river slope indices (ksn) and χ (Chi) between the normal faults of the SPNF and the Drin drainage divide. The drainage divide is predicted to be migrating away from the SPNF, except at the NE end of the SPNF system. Two basins analysed in the hangingwall of the SPNF, the Western Kosovo Basin (WKB) and Tropoja Basin (TB), contain late Pliocene-to-Holocene sedimentary rocks deposited well after the main fault activity and immediately after the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM). These layers document an early Pleistocene transition from lacustrine to fluvial conditions that reflects a sudden change from internal to external drainage of paleo-lakes. In the TB, these layers were incised to form three generations of river terraces, interpreted to reflect episodic downstream incision during re-organisation of the paleo-Drin River drainage system. 36Cl-cosmogenic-nuclide depth-profile ages of the two youngest terraces (∼12, ∼8 ka) correlate with periods of wetter climate and increased sediment transport in post-LGM time. The incision rate (∼12 mm/yr) is significantly greater than reported in central and southern Albania. Thus, glacial/interglacial climatic variability, hinterland erosion and base-level changes appear to have regulated basin filling and excavation cycles when the rivers draining the WKB and TB became part of the river network emptying into the Adriatic Sea. These dramatic morphological changes occurred long after normal faulting and clockwise rotation on the SPNF initiated in late Oligocene-Miocene time. Faulting provided a structural and erosional template upon which climate-induced erosion in Holocene time effected reorganisation of the regional drainage pattern, including the formation and partial demise of lakes and basins. The arc of the main drainage divide around the SPNF deviates from the general coincidence of this divide with the NW-SE trend of the Dinaric-Hellenic mountain chain. This arc encompasses the morphological imprint left by roll-back subduction of the Adriatic slab beneath the northwestern Hellenides.
