description: The Zero Waste School project began by identifying the main problem in our school: garbage. This subject was discussed in citizenship classes. We decided that it was necessary a plan to inform the school community, in order to reduce garbage and reuse waste. We asked our partner company Maria Granel for help and it was proposed the implementation of an environmental education project - the Z(h)ero program - with the objectives of helping us to manage waste and transform students and collaborators into change actors at school and around the world.

Haemaphysalis bandicota

description: Haemaphysalis bandicota Hoogstraal and Kohls, 1965
 This species has been recorded from Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, as well as from Taiwan, where it may have been introduced by the Dutch in the 16 th century on its dominant hosts (Hoogstraal and Kohls 1965; Robbins 2005). These are bandicoot rats (Bandicota spp.), although Ha. bandicota has also been found on other rodent species, carnivores, shrews, tree shrews and a zebu cow (Hoogstraal and Kohls 1965; Kolonin 2009; Kuo et al. 2015). Because members of the genus Bandicota occur throughout continental Southeast Asia, it is likely that the known distribution of Ha. bandicota will increase as more collections become available. The three continental Southeast Asian Bandicota species are all synanthropic (Francis 2008), suggesting that Ha. bandicota may come into contact with humans.
All life history stages are described in Hoogstraal and Kohls (1965).

description: Results
In this study, a total of 237 samples were collected randomly from three landing centers. The results of the descriptive statistics are given in Table 1. The findings revealed that the left and right otoliths of U. vittatus are not significantly different in size from one another. For the Mumbai population, the total length, otolith length, otolith width and otolith weight ranged between 10.45 – 21.44 cm, 0.314 – 0.5962 cm, 0.112 – 0.398 cm and 0.0029 – 0.0089 gm, respectively (Table 1). For the Kakinada population, the total length, otolith length, otolith width, and otolith weight were ranged between 11.67 – 17.52 cm, 0.334 – 0.487 cm, 0.212 – 0.304 cm, and 0.0031 – 0.0075 gm, respectively (Table 1). Similarly, for Puri population the total length, otolith length, otolith width and otolith weight were ranged between 11.87 – 16.59 cm, 0.327 – 0.409 cm, 0.208 – 0.272 cm and 0.002 – 0.0099 gm, respectively (Table 1). Puri population had the highest correlation between fish length and otolith weight (R 2 = 0.9101), followed by Kakinada and Mumbai populations (Fig. 4a, d, g). The maximum correlation between fish length and otolith width was observed in the Kakinada population (R 2 = 0.8957), followed by Odisha and Mumbai populations (Fig. 4b, e, h). The maximum correlation between fish length and otolith length was observed in the Mumbai population (R 2 = 0.9306), followed by Odisha and Kakinada populations (Fig. 4c, f, i).

title: The North Pacific from glacial to modern : assemblages, isotopes and CO₂
Creators: name: Taylor, Ben Justin
Publisher: name: University of St Andrews
Year: 2019

description: Investigating past changes in Earth’s climate can provide useful information for assessing future climate change scenarios. Planktic foraminifera preserved in marine sediment are commonly used as a tool to reconstruct past environmental change. Here I present a combination of modern census and multinet data from the North Pacific, a new compilation of global census data, a new global calibration for Mg/Ca ratios in Neogloboquadrina pachyderma, and foraminifera assemblage, trace element, and boron isotope data from the North Pacific spanning the last deglaciation. New modern census data from the North Pacific shows that two key sub-polar proxy carrying species, N. pachyderma and Globigerina bulloides, predominantly live between 0-50 m in the water column. Global planktic foraminifera diversity is observed to be driven primarily by sea surface temperature, with upwelling and ocean productivity providing key secondary roles. In the North Pacific, a preservation bias of N. pachyderma over G. bulloides is observed when comparing multinet and core-top samples, highlighting the importance of tracking dissolution during downcore studies. To improve the use of Mg/Ca ratios in N. pachyderma downcore, I produced a new global calibration with a temperature sensitivity of 6 % per °C. This calibration was combined with boron isotope and Mg/Ca data from sediment core MD02-2489 to investigate changes in North Pacific circulation, productivity, and CO₂ during the last deglaciation. Two intervals of high surface CO₂ were observed, the first during Heinrich Stadial 1, where deep ventilation mixed CO₂ and nutrients throughout the water column. The second occurred during the Bølling-Allerød, where stratification pooled nutrients and CO₂ in surface waters, leading to enhanced productivity and CO₂ outgassing. Overall, this thesis improves the use of planktic foraminifera as tools for investigating past climate change and highlights the role of the North Pacific in deglacial CO₂ release.

description: Zunehmende Ertrags- und Preisschwankungen aufgrund des Klimawandels und Unsicherheiten aufgrund sich ändernder agrarpolitischer Rahmenbedingungen führen zu immer stärkeren Einkommensschwankungen auf landwirtschaftlichen Betrieben. Weiterhin führt der verstärkte Wettbewerb auf den landwirtschaftlichen Pachtmärkten zu einem Anstieg der Pachtpreise. Im Gegensatz zu den Einkommensschwankungen stellt der jährlich zu entrichtendem Pachtzins eine fixe jährliche Größe dar, die die Liquidität der landwirtschaftlichen Betriebe in Phasen mit geringem Einkommen gefährden kann. Vor diesem Hintergrund können Pachtpreisanpassungsklauseln den sonst fixen Pachtzins in Abhängigkeit von verschiedenen exogenen Größen ebenfalls zum schwanken bringen und so einen natürlichen Hedge imitieren. Ziel dieser Studie ist es daher, zu untersuchen, welche Art von Pachtvertrag bzw. Pachtpreisanpassungsklausel Landwirte bei einem Neuabschluss eines Pachtvertrags allgemein und im Hinblick auf die Risikoquellen Klimawandel und agrarpolitische Rahmenbedingungen bevorzugen würden. Dazu wurden im letzten Quartal 2019 und ersten Quartal 2020 156 deutsche Landwirte mittels einer Online-Umfrage befragt. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die Landwirte im Allgemeinen bei Neuabschluss einen Pachtvertrag ohne Anpassungsklausel bevorzugen, wohingegen im Hinblick auf die genannten Risikoquellen eine Anpassung an innerbetriebliche Indikatoren präferiert wird. Die Ergebnisse sind somit für Folgestudien aber auch für Pächter, Verpächter, landwirtschaftliche Berater sowie Agrarökonomen.

description: This article is a performative and poetic representation of three Native girls' spilaxem(personal narrative) dealing with racist bullying and bullycide. They speak of theirtransformative process through filmmaking and the healing aspect of presenting theirfilms to non-Native youth audiences (all students' names are pseudonyms). Thespecial value of film- and videomaking by Native youth lies in the ability to recordnuances of process, perceptions, emotions, and other subtleties. Confronting theliteracy-biased value system of modern Western society, Native youth voices areheard by sharing their own embodied, vocal, and visual perceptions of their processesand their world, thus reclaiming Native youth authoritative judgment. In this study,knitting of resilience meant interweaving three parts of one braid by co-creating aholding environment for stories of hurt to be shared, engaging wholeheartedly(emotionally, physically, spiritually, and intellectually) in reenacting experiences oftrauma and reconnecting to a healthy individual and collective identity throughpublic denunciations. Native youth involved in the making of films togetherperformed as leaders in preventing further suicide-related and at-risk behaviors forthemselves and others.

Εξετάσαμε τις συνθήκες της διαμόρφωσης της πρώιμης ρεαλιστικής νομικής σκέψης, στο πλαίσιο της κοινωνιολογικής θεωρίας του δικαίου του Pound, παραθέτοντας, αρχικά, πλούσια βιογραφικά στοιχεία για τον σπουδαίο νομικό. Στη συνέχεια περιγράψαμε την αντίδρασή του στο νομικό φορμαλισμό και την ανάπτυξη της πολεμικής του στη νομική τυποκρατεία που χαρακτήριζε το αμερικανικό νομικό σύστημα στις αρχές του 20ου αιώνα. Ακόμη μελετήσαμε κάποιες χαρακτηριστικές περιπτώσεις από την αμερικανική νομολογία εκείνης της ιστορικής περιόδου. Αναλύσαμε επίσης τα βασικά χαρακτηριστικά της νομικής θεωρίας του Pound καθώς και τις βασικές του διαφορές με τους νομικούς ρεαλιστές. Ασχοληθήκαμε εκτεταμένα με την ιστορική του δημόσια αντιπαράθεση με τον Karl Llewellyn καθώς αυτή αποτέλεσε ορόσημο για τη σχέση του Pound με το Νομικό Ρεαλισμό.
description: The aim of the present thesis was the study of Legal Realism in Roscoe Pound’s work. We examined the circumstances of formation of the early realistic legal thought, into the framework of Pound’s Sociological Jurisprudence, indicating, at first, many biographic information for the great scholar. Then we described his reaction to the Legal Formalism and the development of his struggle against legal ritualism that characterized the American legal system at the beginning of the twentieth century. Furthermore, we studied some characteristic cases from the American courts of this particular historic period. We also analyzed the basic characteristics of Pound’s theory of law and the main differences between his thought and the thought of legal realists. Furthermore, we treated at great length the public controversy that Pound and Karl Llewellyn were engaged in because that was a landmark for the relation between Pound and legal realists.

Extensive Aboriginal communityconsultations throughout BC resulted in the identification of seven community-determined research theme priorities: traditional healing, knowledge, and practices;addictions and mental health—treatment and transitions; health care programs andpolicy; health promotion and best practices; Elders' well-being; ethics—research andpractice; and capacity-building in and access to research. Various researchpartnerships with Aboriginal community, health, and educational organizationsresulted in the development of research awareness workshops, pilot studies, provincialforums to share research experiences, learning research modules, and the developmentof community-specific ethical protocols. A significant outcome of the BC ACADREhas been funding and mentoring support for numerous high school, undergraduate,master's, and doctoral students engaged in Aboriginal health education and research.

description: Brazil stands as a global powerhouse in fruit production, boasting abundant resources, favorable climatic conditions, and substantial investments in infrastructure and logistics innovation. This paper explores Brazil's prominent position in the fruit industry, delving into key factors driving its success as one of the largest fruit-producing countries worldwide. Drawing upon data from the Brazilian Institute of Fruit Growing (IBRAF), the study highlights Brazil's remarkable fruit output, reaching 43.5 million tons in 2017. Notably, 53% of these fruits are earmarked for commercial purposes, underscoring the significance of Brazil's fruit sector in both domestic and international markets. The distribution of fruit production across states further elucidates Brazil's geographic diversity, with São Paulo, Bahia, Rio Grande do Sul, Minas Gerais, and Pará emerging as leading fruit-producing regions. By examining the interplay of geographical, climatic, and economic factors, this research offers insights into Brazil's fruit industry landscape and its implications for agricultural development and economic growth. Through a nuanced analysis, this paper aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of Brazil's role in global fruit production and stimulate further research and investment in this vital sector.
Creating and Sustaining Positive Pathsto Health by Restoring Traditional-BasedIndigenous Health-Education Practices

Year: 2021

description: This article presents some textual and graphic reflections on the epistemological linksbetween health and education and the potential egalitarian influence of applicationson policy and practice in dominant institutions toward the well-being of all. Thereflections arise from an intense examination of the stories and processes of a researchproject with a group of 22 people who are traditional-based Indigenous healthpractitioners or their facilitators, or clients. The focus of the project was to examinehow the access and provision of traditional-based health services could be enhanced inVancouver by and for Indigenous people. By an extension of Indigenous wholisticprinciples and with consideration of the role that traditional knowledge-holders playin the health of Indigenous peoples, it becomes apparent that traditional-based healthand education practices are so intertwined that they can be considered inextricable.From this understanding, a responsibility arises to ensure the well-being ofIndigenous (and other) people by promoting epistemological pluralism and byrestoring traditional-based principles and practices in the mainstream.

Teach for America and the Political Spectacle of Recruiting the "Best and the Brightest"
Creators: name: Kavanagh, Kara M.

Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2013

description: Each year, approximately 8,000 corps members work in schools. This paper illuminates the political spectacle and master narratives that allow TFA to thrive as a silver bullet in urban school reform. This work utilizes neoliberalism, political spectacle, and master narratives. Political spectacle suggests an “onstage” rhetoric and a “backstage” reality that the public doesn’t see. This onstage rhetoric is turned into a “spectacle” perpetuated by media (Edelman, 1970). The spectacle is a political symbol aimed at accomplishing a political goal or solving a problem. TFA may divert public attention from important issues or solutions (Smith, 2004).The use and influence of master narratives related to TFA is discussed. A master narrative, (Lyotard, 1984) portrays common sense ways of understanding experiences that reflect and influence understandings of power and society (Aldridge, 2006). This paper illuminates TFA as (1) a political spectacle; (2) a cause and consequence of failed urban school reform; and (3) a temporary solution to systemic problems. We argue TFA perpetuates master narratives of teaching, learning, and educational equity, contributing to a false understanding of what teachers need to know and be able to do. Implications are significant for policymakers and urban communities.

Well-funded through both philanthropic foundations, corporate sponsorships, and federal monies, TFA’s use of its organizational and political networks, as well as the media, has enabled it to position itself discursively as a leader in the preparation of teachers in the U.S, resulting not only in transforming state and national discussions about teacher preparation, but in establishing a network of elites with a particular ideology of schooling for poor students.

Year: 2013

description: On paper, Teach for America (TFA) has all the markings of an excellent program with real potential for social service and change. Given a hard to staff school in a poverty stricken city, allowing enthusiastic college graduates with some training to go in and put their hearts and souls into classrooms that would otherwise be staffed with less-prepared or unprepared individuals may seem like a good idea. Upon further examination, TFA becomes more problematic as its claims to success do not stand up to close scrutiny, and the program has evolved from placing its “corps members” (TFA’s language) in hard to staff schools to replacing certified teachers. This paper analyzes TFA’s claims to “success” through analysis of the organization’s “research” page. Data sources also include peer reviewed papers, research generated by think tanks, and the work of educational bloggers.

Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2013

description: Teach For America (TFA) places novice teachers, referred to as corps members, in several regions across the United States that have among the highest English learner populations in the nation. In light of this fact, we offer an examination of federal policy and recommend programmatic strategies to better prepare TFA corps members to serve English learners. First, we describe the current Elementary and Secondary Education Act amendment that allows TFA corps members to be considered highly qualified without adequate training to work with culturally and linguistically diverse students. Next, we analyze the organizational curriculum and teacher preparation approach specific to English learners. We then compare TFA’s approach to those used in emerging residency models and community-based programs that prepare teachers for specific local contexts and student populations. We conclude with recommendations for TFA to improve its teaching corps for English learners and other culturally and linguistically diverse students.

 Haemaphysalis birmaniae is poorly known. It has been recorded from altitudes between 150 m and 2,400 m, but most commonly above 1,000 m. Both adults and immatures occur on wild and domestic artiodactyls (Hoogstraal 1970a; Yin and Luo 2007). A nymph was found feeding on a human in Kathmandu, Nepal (Hoogstraal 1970a). It is known from peninsular Malaysia and Myanmar, as well as from India, Nepal and southern China including Taiwan (Hoogstraal 1970a; Chen et al. 2010).
 The type male and female are described in Hoogstraal et al. (1965a), all life history stages in Hoogstraal (1970a).

description: The development and piloting experience o f the Social Studies unit designed for theproject, Tsimshian Involvement in the Forest Sector is highlighted in this article.Extensive consultations with Tsimshian Tribal Council members and educators inPrince Rupert and Vancouver schools shaped the Indigenous knowledge andpedagogical components. The educational unit was piloted in two settings: one,within the Tsimshian Territories and the second, in a Vancouver school. Even thoughthe student responses were different, the material was very relevant and highlymotivational to students in both settings. The Forests for the Future projectprovided a unique opportunity to develop curricular materials that linked newresearch with the educational needs o f both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal students.

Teach for America and the Dangers of Deficit Thinking
Creators: name: Anderson, Ashlee
Publisher: name: Critical Education
Year: 2013

description: This article details the findings of a thematic analysis of Teach for America’s (TFA) website in an attempt to add to the growing body of literature documenting the harmful effects of deficit thinking. The paper begins with a general description of the current U.S. education reform landscape, followed by a brief review of literature focused on ways deficit thinking maintains asymmetrical relations of dominance. Next, I describe my commitment to postcritical ethnography and how my positionality informed the production of the deficit theme, followed by ways that TFA implicitly and explicitly pathologizes the communities, families, and students who experience its corps members. After problematizing the savior mentality identified in my research, I conclude with a discussion of implications for students, families, and the communities where TFA teachers are placed, arguing that the organization is not necessarily the answer to the structures of inequality that persist in this country’s schools; rather, it works to perpetuate these structures through its adoption of harmful deficit models. I suggest students may be better served by educators who are able to locate and teach to their strengths.

An acoustic scatter-mapping imaging system
Creators: name: Mellema, Garfield Richard
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The development of improved models of seismic diffraction is assisted by the availability of accurate scattering data. An acoustic scatter-mapping system was developed for the purpose of providing such data rapidly and at low cost. This system uses a source-receiver pair suspended on a trolley over the structure to be mapped. Signal generation, acquisition, processing, and plotting are performed on an AT-compatible microcomputer and a laser printer. The entire process can be performed in an automated manner within five hours, generating scatter-mapping plots in a format familiar to the geophysical industry. The system hardware was similar to those of Hilterman [1] and others referenced by him, but used a controlled source transducer. The available processing power of a microcomputer allowed the use of a 1 to 15 KHz swept-frequency source signal, similar to that used in Vibroseis and Chirp Radar, which is later crosscorrelated with received signal to provide precise scatter-mapping data for the target structure. Several examples of theoretical and experimental acoustic scatter-mappings are provided for comparison. The novelty of this system lies in its use of a swept frequency source signal. While common in the fields of seismology and radar, swept frequency source signals are new to the area of acoustic scatter mapping. When compared to a similar system using a pulsed source signal, this system produces a better controlled source signal of greater energy, resulting in a more useful resultant signal and better mapping characteristics. The system was able to map scattering from features in the target structure smaller than one percent of the crosscorrelated source signal's 37 mm dominant wavelength.

description: Este artículo analiza la función del establecimiento de la agenda en el campo de la comunicación política. En primer lugar, se compara la agenda pública construida por la muestra consultada con la agenda establecida por los medios de comunicación, para determinar si la agenda de los medios ejerce influencia sobre los problemas que el público considera los más importantes del país. En segundo lugar, se analiza la dinámica percibida por los sujetos entre tres agendas diferentes: la agenda de los medios, la agenda pública y la agenda política. Por último, a partir de los datos obtenidos, se comenta el papel de los medios de comunicación en la percepción que la opinión pública construye de las cuestiones públicas y políticas.

description: Who I am and where I come fromDzenes hoti'e. Tsedze susahts’dn. Edosdi ushye. My Master's research has involved my working with Gitga'at people in the Tsimshian community of Hartley Bay. The Traditional Plant Knowledgeo f the Tsimshian curriculum that I developed for the Forests for the Futureproject has been adapted to be used in a high school classroom in the Hartley Bay School. This curriculum is being used as a method, a way for students to learn about their people's ways of knowing, and to be involved in the intergenerational transmission of traditional ecological knowledge and wisdom. I will assess and evaluate the usefulness of incorporating culturally relevant ways of bringing Indigenous knowledge into school science curricula.

A modification of OPM : a signal-independent methodology for single-trial signal extraction
Creators: name: Mason, Steven George
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Initial investigations of the Outlier Processing Method (OPM), first introduced by Birch [1][2][3] in 1988, have demonstrated a promising ability to extract a special class of signals, called highly variable events (HVEs), from coloured noise processes. The term HVE is introduced in this thesis to identify a finite-duration signal whose shape and latency vary dramatically from trial to trial and typically has a very low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). This thesis presents a modified version of the original OPM algorithm, which can generate an estimate of the HVE with significantly less estimation noise than the original OPM algorithm. Simulation experiments are used to identify the strengths and limitations of this modified OPM algorithm for linear and stationary processes and to compare the modified algorithm's performance to the performance of the original algorithm and to the performance of a minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) filter. The results of these experiments verify that the modified algorithm can extract an HVE with less estimation noise than the original algorithm. The results also show, that the MMSE filter is unsuitable for extracting HVEs and that its performance is generally inferior to the modified algorithm's performance. The experiments indicate that the modified algorithm can extract HVEs from a linear and stationary process for SNR levels above -2.5dB and can work effectively above -7.5dB for HVEs with certain characteristics.

description: We present an analysis of Eastern oyster (Crassostreia virginica) production systems dominant in the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. We identify likely ranges of costs, returns, and ecosystem benefits associated with three production systems: commercial bottom production, commercial off-bottom aquaculture, and non-harvested reefs. We compile the limited and disparate literature on costs, yields, and returns associated with U.S. commercial oyster production. Benefits associated with commercial bottom production are expected to be less variable than off-bottom aquaculture and non-harvested reefs. Bottom production is expected to yield positive returns, whereas off-bottom aquaculture is equally likely to yield positive or negative returns. Off-bottom aquaculture has higher per-unit costs, but also higher per-unit revenues. Non-harvested reefs are expected to yield negative net benefits. Market benefits dwarf nonmarket benefits. Non-harvested reefs are generally expensive, but may provide benefits that commercial production systems do not, particularly shoreline protection and larvae for nearby harvested reefs.

description: The history of the relationship between First Nations and outsiders has not always been a happy one. There are many stories of K'mshiwah coming to our community, asking us to share our knowledge, and then leaving without returning anything to us. This presentation is about the way these relationships are changing. As Gitkxaala we are no longer interested in sitting back and watching our country being exploited by outsiders. Developing protocols of research, like the one described in this paper, is part of our declaration of sovereignty.

description: The issue of transformation as both an outcome and a practice is crucial to Indigenous communities. To speak of and to pursue meaningful transfor­mation is also to understand that the status quo situation in which In­digenous people are living their lives is often problematic—and that subsequently there is need for urgent change. This is particularly true of the schooling and educational circumstances of most Indigenous peoples who live in colonized states around the Pacific perimeter.
