description: This study was carried out in order to investigate the spatial variation of algal toxin (microcystin) concentrations along the shoreline of Lake Victoria. A total of 16 nearshore stations differing in connectivity to the main lake basin were categorized as either closed bays (ratio of bay area to bay opening < 1) or open bays (ratio ≥ 1) and sampled during November and December 2009. Water samples were analyzed for total phosphorus, chlorophyll a, phytoplankton community composition and concentrations of microcystin. Open and closed bays were significantly different for phytoplankton abundance and composition: Average phytoplankton biovolume was higher for closed bays (45 mm3l−1 ± 11 SE) than open bays (5 ± 2 mm3l−1). Cyanobacterial biovolume (mainly Microcystis spp., Anabaena spp. and Planktolyngbya spp.) was also significantly higher in closed bays (82 ± 9% of total biovolume) than in open bays (44 ± 5%). In contrast, diatom biovolume was lower in closed bays (7 ± 1%) than in open bays (36 ± 6%). Microcystins were found only among sites from closed bays and concentrations ranged from 0.4 to 13 µg l−1 Microcystin-LR equivalent and coincided with high abundance of Microcystis spp. It is concluded that the level of water exchange from individual bays to the main basin is an important factor influencing eutrophication and microcystin production in nearshore habitats of Lake Victoria.

description: The present text is a very abridged version of a book I wrote out of the desire to examine the structure of our reality from a standpoint unbiased by established teachings, be they academic- scientific, popular- esoteric, or religious in nature. We will begin with seemingly simple interactions in our daily lives, examine how they originate on a deeper level, come to understand the essentials of consciousness, and finally recognize that we create our reality in its entirety. In the course of this quest, we will uncover little-heeded paths to accessing our subconscious, other individuals, and that which can be understood by the term "God". And the solution to the classical problem of free will constitutes the gist of the concepts thus revealed. Published in: Journal of Consciousness Exploration & Research (2011), 2(6), p.838-867.

description: A granular bed was designed to collect nanoparticles as an alternative to nylon mesh screens for use in a nanoparticle respiratory deposition (NRD) sampler. The granular bed consisted of five layers in series: a coarse mesh, a large-bead layer, a small-bead layer, a second large-bead layer, and a second coarse mesh. The bed was designed to primarily collect particles in the small-bead layer, with the coarse mesh and large-bead layers designed to hold the collection layer in position. The collection efficiency of the granular bed was measured for varying depths of the small-bead layer and for test particles with different shape (cuboid, salt particles; and fractal, stainless steel and welding particles). Experimental measurements of collection efficiency were compared to estimates of efficiency from theory and to the nanoparticulate matter (NPM) criterion, which was established to reflect the total deposition in the human respiratory system for particles smaller than 300 nm. The shape of the collection efficiency curve for the granular bed was similar to the NPM criterion in these experiments. The collection efficiency increased with increasing depth of the small-bead layer: the particle size associated with 50% collection efficiency, d50, for salt particles was 25 nm for a depth of 2.2 mm, 35 nm for 3.2 mm, and 45 nm for 4.3 mm. The best-fit to the NPM criterion was found for the bed with a small-bead layer of 3.2 mm. Compared to cubic salt particles, the collection efficiency was higher for fractal shaped particles larger than 50 nm, presumably due to increased interception.

Omnipresent Consciousness and Free Will

Subjects: subject: Philosophy
subject: FOS: Philosophy, ethics and religion

description: This article is not an attempt to explain consciousness in terms basically of quantum physics or neuro-biology. Instead I should like to place the term "Consciousness" on a broader footing. I shall therefore proceed from everyday reality, precisely where we experience ourselves as conscious beings. I shall use the term in such a general way as to resolve the question whether only a human being enjoys consciousness, or even a thermostat. Whilst the difference is considerable, it is not fundamental. Every effect exists in the perception of a consciousness. I elaborate on its freedom of choice (leading to free will), in my view the most important source of creativity, in a similarly general way. The problems associated with a really conscious decision do not disappear by mixing determination with a touch of coincidence. Both must enter into a higher unity. In so doing it will emerge that a certain degree of freedom of choice (or free will) is just as omnipresent as consciousness - an inherent part of reality itself.

description: Neighbour-net phylogenetic networks of Oryzias species endemic to the Malili Lake system based on Nei's genetic distance calculated from 1,989 genome-wide SNPs (modified from [18]). Note that the internal branch leading to O. matanensis individuals, including the possible heteroplasmic individual (O. matanensis F04), is long and thin; this indicates that they have long been isolated. Note also that several network connections are evident between internal branches, which indicates that Oryzias species in this lake system repeatedly underwent ancient hybridisation.

description: SummaryQuantification of fire-prone vegetation is a challenge for land and fire managers who need explicit fuel data to support fire management decision-making. Fuel characteristics including the distribution of fuel elements by size class, live and dead components, compactness, and horizontal and vertical continuity are important determinants of fire behaviour and key to understanding suppression difficulty and assessing the risk of damage from bushfires. Furthermore, fuel characteristics are critical for evaluating ecological effects of fire including thermal impacts on vegetation and soil, and smoke emissions. Australian land and fire managers have recognised the need for a national-level fuel classification to provide an adequate and consistent method of characterising and categorising fuels. Here we introduce the concept and framework for a fuel classification scheme for Australian vegetation. This framework arises from extensive consultation with land managers and rural fire authorities, and a review of other classification systems used throughout the world. The Bushfire Fuel Classification (BFC) is based on a top-down approach with three hierarchically linked tiers suitable for a variety of fire management applications. The level of detail to which a fuel complex is described varies from a coarse description for the top tier to precise information in the third (bottom) tier. A case study application of the new fuel classification to an area of south-western Australia is presented to illustrate the process of converting vegetation types into the top-level tier fuel types.
Building Psychological Resilience in Firefighters Through Cultivation of a Yoga Routine

Subjects: Clinical Psychology

description:        This research study sought to add to the literature on the effectiveness of a relatively low level frequency of yoga as an intervention for building psychological resilience and decreasing depression, stress and somatic symptoms, within the first responder population. This study implemented a specific adaptation of basic yoga called “Trauma Recovery Yoga”, (TRY), which was administered once weekly in the form of 60-minute yoga classes. The yoga intervention consisted of a traditional vinyasa structure, including the following elements: opening breathing exercises and/or guided meditation, warm-up sequencing, sun salutations and vinyasa, followed by standing and balancing postures, seated postures, supine postures, backbends and twists, followed by closing breathing exercises and/or guided meditation and savasana. The design of this dissertation involved quasi-experimental between-groups comparisons. The three hypotheses tested, examining the impact of the yoga intervention on psychological resilience, depression, anxiety and somatic symptoms, failed to reach statistical significance. However, the study found that the implementation of a once weekly yoga routine over six weeks did appear to positively impact firefighters’ stress levels, anxiety and depression at a level approaching statistical significance, warranting further discussion. The evidence for positive impact on psychological resilience and somatic symptoms was inconclusive, possibly due to the limited size of the sample and the unexpected pandemic that occurred during the course of the study. While this study did not provide statistical significance for the specific intervention used, it serves as a pilot study to support future research in the realm of yoga and interventions for first responders. Future research may expand on the limitations that were outlined in order to further establish yoga as an effective intervention for the first responder population. Much more research into the efficacy of yoga as an intervention is warranted, especially when it comes to focusing on specialized routines and curricula for first responder populations.

description: Chance constrained optimization problems in engineering applications possess highly nonlinear process models and non-convex structures. As a result, solving a nonlinear non-convex chance constrained optimization (CCOPT) problem remains as a challenging task. The major difficulty lies in the evaluation of probability values and gradients of inequality constraints which are nonlinear functions of stochastic variables. This article proposes a novel analytic approximation to improve the tractability of smooth non-convex chance constraints. The approximation uses a smooth parametric function to define a sequence of smooth nonlinear programs (NLPs). The sequence of optimal solutions of these NLPs remains always feasible and converges to the solution set of the CCOPT problem. Furthermore, Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) points of the approximating problems converge to a subset of KKT points of the CCOPT problem. Another feature of this approach is that it can handle uncertainties with both Gaussian and/or non-Gaussian distributions.

description: Heuristic methods are popular tools to find critical slip surfaces in slope stability analyses. A new genetic algorithm (GA) is proposed in this work that has a standard structure but a novel encoding and generation of individuals with custom-designed operators for mutation and crossover that produce kinematically feasible slip surfaces with a high probability. In addition, new indices to assess the efficiency of operators in their search for the minimum factor of safety (FS) are proposed. The proposed GA is applied to traditional benchmark examples from the literature, as well as to a new practical example. Results show that the proposed GA is reliable, flexible and robust: it provides good minimum FS estimates that are not very sensitive to the number of nodes and that are very similar for different replications.

Living on colour: influence of substrate colour on biodiversity on marine structures

subject: Marine and estuarine ecology (incl. marine ichthyology)

description: Marine built structures, such as seawalls, are an increasing habitat feature of urban shorelines. Compared to rocky reefs – the most similar natural habitat - marine structures often support less biodiversity. Studies have focused on how habitat complexity and material type could drive this difference, but substrate colour may also contribute. Marine structures often differ in colour to natural habitats. Substrate colour may influence colonisation by determining larval settlement or by shaping post settlement mortality by altering prey detectability. To assess how colour influences colonisation by marine invertebrates and algae, concrete panels of three natural colours (green, red, yellow) and a grey control were attached to seawalls at two elevations of two sites in Sydney Harbour. Panels were caged or open to assess whether predation may drive any colour differences. Over 12 months, colour effects were generally greater in the low than high intertidal, reflecting the greater number of colonists, and were similar across caged and open surfaces, suggesting that colour effects largely occurred on settlement. Functional groups differed in their responses to colour over time, likely reflecting direct and indirect effects of colour. The results suggest that substrate colour is an important consideration in the eco-friendly design of marine structures.

description: A family of phenoxo-bridged heterometallic Schiff base trinuclear complexes, [Fe2LnL2(C3H7COO)(H2O)]·CH3OH·CH3CN·H2O (Ln = Sm, 1; Gd, 2; Tb, 3; Dy, 4) is reported. Those complexes were afforded by “one-pot” reaction of a polydentate Schiff base ligand 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenylsalicylaldimine (H2L) with Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, Ln(NO3)3·6H2O and sodium butyrate (C3H7COONa) in a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile in the presence of triethylamine as a base. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the structures of the four complexes are isomorphic. In each complex, two anionic [FeL2]− units coordinate to the central lanthanide ion as a tetradentate ligand using its four phenoxo oxygens, forming a two-blade propeller-like molecular shape. Magnetic properties of 1–4 were investigated using variable temperature magnetic susceptibility, and weak ferromagnetic exchange between the FeIII and LnIII ions has been established for the Gd derivative. The Tb and Dy complexes show no evidence of slow relaxation behavior above 2.0 K.

description: The purpose of this writing is to propose a frame of view, a form as the eternal world element, that is compatible with paradox with in the history of ideas, modern discovery as they confront one another. Under special consideration are problems of representation of phenomena, life, the cosmos as the rational facility of mind confronts the physical/perceptual, and itself. Current topics in pursuit are near as diverse and numbered as are the possibilities for a world composed strictly of uniqueness able to fill infinite space. It is assumed that not all of the paths chosen in contemporary pursuits will produce coherent determinations in an appropriate frame able to accommodate a world of nominals in motion, containing motion, and is commensurate with basic physical law, action, reaction, and the propagation of form, change from within. Intended as a potential guiding post for the aim of reason seeking to select, define and capture topics, chosen as special examples are the works of logistician/mathematician Lewis Carroll as he presents a paradox of actuality verses the reality of perception in Alice in Wonderland, the theory of relativity of Albert Einstein as he fails to elaborate a mathematics to communicate an inertial frame of reference, and the reconstruction ideas of Jacques Derrida as he refers for contrast with the scientific world view constructed of dualisms, monisms that are conceived to have no opposites. Supporting discussion is evolved from the works of Bertand Russell, Erwin Schrodinger, Jurgen Habermas, Bronislaw Malinowski, Michel Foucault.

description: A family of phenoxo-bridged heterometallic Schiff-base trinuclear complexes, [Fe2LnL2(C3H7COO)(H2O)]·CH3OH·CH3CN·H2O (Ln = Sm, 1; Gd, 2; Tb, 3; Dy, 4) are reported. Those complexes were afforded by "one-pot" reaction of a polydentate Schiff-base ligand 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-phenylsalicylaldimine (H2L) with Fe(NO3)3·9H2O, Ln(NO3)3·6H2O and sodium butyrate (C3H7COONa) in a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile in the presence of triethylamine as a base. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the structures of the four complexes are isomorphic. In each complex, two anionic [FeL2]- units coordinate to the central lanthanide ion as a tetradentate ligand using its four phenoxo oxygens, forming a two-blade propeller-like molecular shape. Magnetic properties of 1-4 were investigated using variable temperature magnetic susceptibility and weak ferromagnetic exchange between the FeIII and LnIII ions has been established for the Gd derivative. The Tb and Dy complexes show no evidence of slow relaxation behavior above 2.0 K.
The roles of endothelial function and L-arginine in the pathogensis of Plasmodium falciparum malaria
Creators: name: Yeo, Tsin
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University

description: The pathogenesis of severe Plasmodium falciparum disease is still not clearly understood, however reduction in tissue oxygen delivery and vascular flow due to parasite sequestration in the blood vessels of the microcirculation is thought to play a major role. Sequestration is a result of increased expression of endothelium adhesion receptors during P. falciparum infection which bind to ligands expressed on the surface of parasitized erythrocytes. Previous clinical studies in malaria have demonstrated a global reduction in nitric oxide production proportional to disease severity, but not at the organ level. Vascular nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability or endothelial function has a major role in physiological homeostasis by reducing vasoconstrictor and inflammatory activity. Reduced endothelial NO bioavailability in malaria may increase adhesion receptor expression and parasite binding. In diseases with increased intravascular haemolysis, increased plasma or cell-free haemoglobin released during erythrocyte rupture, quenches and reduce vascular NO bioavailability. The possible contribution of these two mechanisms in the pathogenesis of severe malaria has not been previously assessed in clinical studies. We measured endothelial function using a finger plethysmography method in adults in Papua, Indonesia with severe and moderately severe P. falciparum malaria as well as healthy individuals. Endothelial function decreased with increasing disease severity, and was inversely associated with markers of disease severity including blood lactate concentrations, plasma intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), and parasite biomass. There was also a significant association between markers of haemolysis and endothelial dysfunction, suggesting NO quenching by cell-free haemoglobin. iv Decreased plasma levels of L-arginine, the precursor of NO, has been described and hypothesized to impair cellular NO production. We conducted an ascending dose study of up to 12 grams of intravenous L-arginine in adults with moderately severe malaria and demonstrated a significant dose-related increase in endothelial function with no clinically significant adverse effects. Using a population approach, a pharmacokinetic model was developed and used to simulate the concentration time profile for various dose ranges of L-arginine. Based on the findings detailed in this thesis, a phase 2A study using a continuous infusion of Larginine is being conducted to assess its potential role as an adjunctive agent in adults with severe malaria.

description: This study of the notion of myth as an explanation of the living world to conclude that the protection given to the people in antiquity was not linked to the legal provisions but often the mythical cult that had full social acceptance, which gave the character metaphysical protection that he received "gifts" of deities, like life. Natural law as culture and social expression is see within this design, requiring no human supervision recognition by some authority. The analysis of the differences between natural law and positive law are aimed to structure the next topic that connects the first legal expression, the natural law with the social function of property in order to give better protection conditions and obstacles to poor protection in liquid society.

description: Abstract

Businesses make a significant contribution to development and quality of life through the creation of wealth, jobs and added value, but not without consequences for the environment. Voices were immediately raised to curb the perverse effects of this development. To this end, the World Standards Organisation (ISO) has launched the international standard ISO 14001 "environmental management" to provide a reference framework for the implementation of effective environmental management. A number of studies have been carried out around the world to assess the impact of the implementation of this standard on business performance, but very few have been carried out in developing countries, such as Algeria. This contribution therefore aims to enrich the debate on this issue. In this paper, we present the results of empirical research carried out on a sample of Algerian companies certified to the ISO 14001/2015 standard. Overall, the results show that this impact is effective in terms of controlling environmental aspects, but remains questionable when it comes to companies' economic imperatives.
The straight-tusked elephant from Contrada Calorie (Basilicata, Southern Italy). Preliminary notes

description: This research aims to provide preliminary information about the taxonomic identity, stature, and body weight of an elephant skeleton found in 1982 in the Contrada Calorie locality, near the village of Rotonda within the Mercure basin (Basilicata, Southern Italy). Although the elephant is well-known to the public and the remains have been exposed in the Geological, Paleontological, and Archeological Museum of Rotonda since their discovery and have been cited in some scientific articles, no one specifically dealts with such remains. According to the analysis we were able to perform, the elephant is a straight-tusked elephant, Palaeoloxodon antiquus, representative. The skeleton belongs to an individual about 35 years old, about 3.9-4 meters tall at the shoulder, and weighing about 9.6-9.7 tons. Most of the diagnostic dimorphic characters provided by the skeletal bones, including those of the pelvis, are undetectable due to the bone preservation status. However, the attribution to a male individual is conceivable, considering the not-advanced ontogenetic age coupled with the large size and tusk dimensions.

The Perceived Needs of Gujarati Older Adults in Improving Overall Quality of Life
Creators: name: Suvagia, Nina
Publisher: name: Midwestern University
Year: 2024
Subjects: Clinical Psychology

description:      Quality of life (QOL) is multidimensional, encompassing various components of daily living, such as physical health, psychological health, autonomy, social participation, environmental quality, socioeconomic status, and spirituality or religiousness, which may be viewed objectively or subjectively (Rice, 1984). Understanding QOL is important for health care providers to prepare to best meet the needs of the growing older adult population within the United States, especially from a cultural standpoint since diversity exists in the aging process. Hence, the purpose of this study was to better understand and improve the overall QOL of an ethnolinguistic subgroup of the Asian Indian population, Gujarati older adults. This study explored the perceived future needs of 25 Gujarati older adults based on how they currently perceive their overall QOL, the current challenges and/or barriers they face, and the current support available to them on both individual and community levels. Overall QOL and domains of QOL were assessed using a needs assessment questionnaire and the WHOQOL-BREF. The needs assessment questionnaire was developed to include quantitative and qualitative items and assessed seven domains of QOL, including physical health, mental health, independence, social participation, living arrangements, socioeconomic status, and spirituality/religiousness. The WHOQOL-BREF is a quantitative standardized QOL measure which assessed four domains of QOL, including physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and the environment. Based on results, Gujarati older adults viewed their overall QOL and domains of QOL as quite positive. The majority of the sample endorsed a positive ix QOL based on subjective and objective indicators of QOL. Spirituality/religiousness and the environment were the highest rated QOL domains relative to others on the needs assessment questionnaire and WHOQOL-BREF, respectively. Mental/psychological health was rated the lowest on both measures. Moreover, Gujarati older adults demonstrated interest in further improving their QOL on both individual and community levels, despite viewing their QOL as quite positive. Given that QOL was found to be multidimensional, individual- and community-level recommendations targeted multiple domains of QOL. In sum, these results have positive implications for enhancing the overall health and well-being of Gujarati older adults and informing culturally-sensitive treatment within health care settings and the community.
