363: Umwelt- und Sicherheitsprobleme

description: Winter backcountry mountain sport operators, outdoor mountain recreation industry experts, and researchers in Europe and North America commonly report that participation in winter backcountry recreation in mountainous terrain has increased tremendously in recent decades. While increasing numbers of backcountry skiers, mountain snowmobile riders, snowshoers, ice climbers, and mountaineers venture into the backcountry, these activities are not without risks. The primary hazard faced by winter backcountry recreationists is snow avalanches. Every winter over the last decade, between 125 and 150 backcountry recreationists have died in avalanches in the mountainous regions of central Europe, Scandinavia, and North America.

To be most effective, avalanche-warning services must be based on an in-depth understanding of the size and the characteristics of the winter backcountry recreation community. Meaningful estimates of the size of the community are important for estimating overall and activity-specific accident and fatality rates. An evidence-based understanding of temporal trends of these rates is critical for assessing the effectiveness of existing avalanche awareness initiatives and identifying particularly-at-risk backcountry user segments for new campaigns. Furthermore, an in-depth understanding of recreationists’ needs, strengths, and weaknesses in information seeking, decision-making, and risk management is essential for the development of avalanche warning products and services that resonate with recreationists and allow them to make meaningful decisions about backcountry travel.

While there has been considerable growth in human dimensions research in the avalanche safety community, not all the needs listed above have been addressed adequately. Hence, a coordinated effort is required to develop a comprehensive understanding of the winter backcountry user community. However, there is currently no country implementing a comprehensive system to effectively monitor and characterize winter backcountry users as a whole. Fortunately, there are several research fields that have well-established methods for estimating participation rates and population sizes. These research fields include the management of protected areas and wildlife protection, public health research measuring participation rates in sports and recreation activities, and tourism- and recreation-related economic impact studies. Many of the monitoring methods developed in these fields have the potential to be applicable to winter backcountry recreation contexts and provide useful insights for avalanche-warning services.

Putting a Check on Police Violence: The Legal Services Market, Section 1983, Torture, Abusive Detention Practices, and the Chicago Police Department from 1954 to 1967

description: This paper explores the conception, rise, and initial implementation of a legal strategy which sought to fashion civil liability into a tool for reforming the Chicago Police Department (CPD) from the mid 1950s to 1967. Operating under a certain notion of the legal services market, a group of lawyers, working in close concert with the Illinois Division of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), theorized that with the correct imposition of civil liability on police misconduct and brutality, they could weaponize civil suits into a means of forcing the CPD to crack down on abusive and harmful police behavior. Drawing from contemporary thought on how civil liability could shape municipal conduct, they reasoned that this imposition, brought about by plaintiffs sue the City of Chicago directly and expanding the conduct officers could be sued for, could be used to harness the legal services market to cause the number of successful civil suits to become commensurate with the prevalence of abusive police practices. Amidst a culture of impunity and widespread police misconduct within the CPD, they thought the total cost of the resulting civil suits would compel the City to enact reforms to combat such practices and the culture of impunity within the Chicago Police Department. This paper examines the attempt to carry out this legal strategy in the federal civil court system from the early 1950s to the end of Superintendent O.W. Wilson’s tenure in 1967, with a specific focus on police torture and abusive detention practices. I argue that while this may have been a novel strategy, it was ultimately unsuccessful in changing broader departmental policy and priorities. Altogether this is the story of a failed attempt to weaponize civil lawsuits to curb police misconduct and abuse. A close examination of this legal strategy and the assumptions underlying it offers insight into the utility of civil liability to rectify and prevent civil rights abuses by the police.

description: Dysart, Pennsylvania can only be reached by traversing a road colloquially named “The Black Snake.” It takes about forty minutes to travel this stretch of highway, flanked on both sides by dense forest, stretches of corn fields, and modest homes and trailers nestled inside the quiet woods. Marked by racial homogeneity, economic disenfranchisement, and geographic isolation, Dysart, PA embodies the term “forgotten America,” a mythical moniker coined by the national media to describe areas populated by poor, disgruntled whites who shouldered President Trump’s election in 2016. My paternal grandparents have lived in Dysart since the 1970s in a house my step-grandfather built as an oasis for hunting, hiking, and seclusion from the frivolities of the urban world. I grew up in Dallas, TX, but I visited Dysart about twice a year for my entire childhood. Here I was taught how to tie fishing flies, shoot a 22-gauge shotgun, drive a four-wheeler, and forage for wild strawberries hidden in the dewy grass. I also learned the code of silence that blankets certain subjects, ranging from the sudden circumstances of my great-uncle’s marriage to a Chinese woman he met via the Internet or the confederate flags displayed on the house down the street. Because I recognize Dysart as an intrinsic part of my memory and ancestral past but not as my home, I have been able to deduce the town’s twin realities, one that celebrates the abundance of its natural surroundings and another burdened by the effects of its paralyzing solitude. The town’s experience of social immobility, poor education, and institutional neglect, coupled by Dysart’s momentously beautiful geography, creates a culture marked by a distinct mixture of rage and deep-seated devotion to community identity and survival.

subject: FOS: Mechanical engineering

description: Actual engineering processes can be simulated and analyzed in virtual environments by using Computer Aided Design (CAD) methods. The CAD is presented by geometrical parameter as Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines (NURBS), B-spline and T-splines. Stress and strain of produced parts can also be simulated in virtual environments by using the CAD models in order to be analyzed and controlled. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is a very common analysis method in order to analyze CAD models. Efficiency of FEM is under influence of many parameters such as approximation, polynomial based geometry, mesh generation and mesh refinement process, sliding contact and flows about aerodynamic shapes. The isogeometric analysis is introduced to eliminate the analysis costs related to geometry clean-up, defeaturing and mesh generation. The integrated numerical simulation in the part designing is development and implementation of the next generation design and simulation methods based on isogeometric analysis. Polynomial splines over hierarchical T-meshes (PHT-splines) will be employed to construct exact geometric models. PHT-splines will be extended to RHT-spline (Rational spline over Hierarchical T-meshes) as rational spline in order to capture a wider class of geometries. So, a general framework of unifying preprocessing as well as designing using isogemetric analysis can be provided in order to improve efficiency of produced parts.

description: This independent research seeks to analyze the industrial, cultural, and textual production of Black masculinity in commercial American film, from the Blaxploitation era of the 1970s to the digital present. I examine how the dominant media industry has constructed Blackness for national audiences, and how Black creatives, producers, performers, and audiences have responded to and intervened in these textual constructions and industrial spaces. In considering the cultural and political implications of, and struggles over, these representations, I examine how Blackness in film has intersected with, reinforced, and challenged dominant ideologies and meanings of race in America, as well as entrenched power structures and hierarchies. My research is built upon the theories of social construction, cultivation, and agenda setting, and utilizes a content analysis approach. Thus, my research surveys a range of historical and contemporary media texts of pop culture entertainment in order to track key movements, texts, and figures in the history of mediated Blackness, investigating how it has shifted over time in relation to different industrial configurations and sociopolitical contexts.

description: This independent research seeks to analyze the socio-political elements surrounding the formation and aspects of cyberpunk, drawing parallels between the twentieth-century fiction and the twenty-first-century reality. Cyberpunk refers to the science fiction subgenre encompassing a high tech, low life world which fuses advanced technologies with a dark, broken near-future dystopia. The genre initially sought to move beyond the utopian, idealistic science fiction of the early to the mid-twentieth century into a more realistic depiction of what technological developments and socio-political realities of the time would lead to in the near future. The three sections of this research allow for an in-depth analysis of what brought forth the creation of the genre, what defines its works and texts, and how the genre’s commentaries apply to society and culture at large. First, a foundational analysis exploring the influencing factors on the early visionaries of the genre will contextualize the origins of this ideology. Then, the exploration of two seminal texts of cyberpunk, Ridley Scott's 1982 Blade Runner and Mamoru Oshii's 1995 Ghost in the Shell, through a close textual reading will illuminate commentary from their creators on their perceptions of the world at that time and in a possible future. Lastly, the application of distillations from the second section of this research will draw parallels to twenty-first-century society and culture, including topics such as the globalization of digital media, mass-market availability of products, the widespread usage of social media, and the role of cyberspace in every facet of official and private life. Manifestations of the cyberpunk vision have not only occurred but exist to the point where one could consider the early works of the genre as prophetic for the world of today. Through analysis and observation of elements that derive from cyberpunk, individuals can appreciate the influence of the genre on even the smallest aspects of daily life and what lies in the world of tomorrow.

description: Modern technology enables today's society to have social media tools and applications readily accessible on their smartphones and the internet. The use of social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and tumblr can impact the health of peer relationships and the critical development of the sense of self. People use these online social environments to share information and seek social support in times of need. This desire to connect and relate to one another can lead to social comparison and affect mental well-being. Additionally, people often use social media as an avenue for self expression and creative endeavors. Using music and lyrics to convey a specific message dates back to ancient times and it is still a common way to tell stories to a broad and diverse audience. Modern day musicians have adapted their craft to appeal to audiences on these new social platforms and the art of storytelling in music has evolved to incorporate today’s technology and social media applications.

description: This thesis seeks examines how the illustrations of fin-de-siècle Russian artist Ivan Bilibin creates a new sphere of cultural representation for imperial Russia, through his reimaginations of Russian fairytales. Through a close reading of illustrations depicting scenes from the folkloric tales “Tsarevich Ivan, the Firebird, and the Gray Wolf” (1989), “Vasilisa the Beautiful” (1900), “The Tale of Tsar Saltan” (1905), and “The Tale of the Golden Cockerel” (1907), I describe how Bilibin creates an artistic, cultural, and political “third sphere” which reflects an authentic identity unique to the Russian nation. This “third sphere” is a culturally intermediate space which situates Russia astride the traditional East-West sociocultural dichotomy in ways that both set it apart and allow it to draw inspiration from its neighbors to either side. To achieve this, I inspect Bilibin’s works through three theoretical lenses: Art Nouveau, Russian folk art, and Orientalism.

Species in the Nearctic Bezzia (B.) pulverea complex are most similar to and likely related to species in the B. (B.) expolita complex. In articles by Wirth (1983), Wirth & Grogan (1983) and Wirth et al. (1984), their “Synoptic Key to Subgenera and Groups of Nearctic Bezzia ” included three species groups in the “Subgenus Bezzia, s. s. ”(sensu stricto), the bivitatta, nobilis and expolita groups. Their “ expolita group” includes all species in the expolita and pulverea complexes. Males in the expolita complex differ from males in the pulverea complex in having slender, elongate to greatly elongate parameres, slender aedeagi and slender gonostyli that usually have pointed tips. Fe-males in the expolita complex differ from females in the pulverea complex by their usually non-banded femora and tibiae, and, their stout ovoid spermathecae are usually unequal-size.
Diagnosis. Males in the B. (B.) pulverea complex are the only Nearctic species of B. (Bezzia) with broad to very broad aedeagi and parameres, and, most species have a slender to very short gonostylus with 1–2 apical prongs except for two species, B. amblystyla n. sp. and B. folkertsi n. sp., which have a gonostylus with blunt or rounded apices that lack well developed apical prongs. Females are the only Nearctic species of B. (Bezzia) with mediumsize to large, elongate, unequal-size spermathecae (larger 0.13–0.25 mm, smaller 0.08–0.17 mm long), except for B. folkertsi n. sp., which has smaller, subequal-sized spermathecae (larger 0.09 mm, smaller 0.08 mm long).

description: How has Christianity influenced U.S. citizens' responses to the immigration policy of the Trump administration? In the 2016 election, a large group of Christians supported the anti-immigrant Trump, and in 2018, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions cited Scripture to justify the separation of families at the border. However, at the same time, countless Christians voiced solidarity with the migrant community and quoted Scripture in their arguments against Trump and his immigration policy. This thesis analyzes how different Christian leaders have utilized Scripture while either supporting or condemning Trump's immigration policies. Through dissecting how various leaders use Scripture to argue for immigration policy, this thesis is meant to contribute to the literature that asks us all to honestly examine what we believe and then to apply that belief to our political and everyday choices.

description: There is little research on anti-fat bias in academia specifically, but there is data about teaching evaluations in relation to beauty and gender. Hamermesh and Parker in 2005 found that beauty and teaching evaluations were positively correlated and found the greatest effect of this for men. Other research shows that women generally are rated lower than their male counterparts, and a recent study done by Mitchell and Martin in 2018 says this gendered difference persists even when men and women teach identical courses. Based on this research, fat professors face significant obstacles in securing their job as well as being at risk to face discrimination within their job. In addition to lack of research in academia specifically, there is a lack of qualitative research centering the voices of fat individuals regarding the discrimination they face. The few anecdotal reports about fat bias and experience in academia in the form of op-eds and journalistic articles on this subject point to a feeling of isolation stemming from the lack of conversation around this topic and the lack of people who would share a similar experience to theirs. My study centers the voices of fat female professors through a series of interviews aimed at understanding the embodied experience and feelings associated with working in academia as a fat person, focusing on the participant’s relationship with their body, how they feel about their body within the context of the classroom, with colleagues and superiors, and interviews or presentations/conferences and how they believe themselves to be perceived within those contexts.

description: This work deals with the prevalent issue of Latino migration to the United States of America. The author will examine the relationship between the economic development models of Guatemala and Costa Rica and Latino immigration to the United States of America from these countries of origin. My research question will be as follows: by analyzing the past economic models and development of Guatemala and Costa Rica, what immigration or economic policies should the United States implement to assist these countries? The goal of answering this question is to propose a policy that will make immigration safer, more effective, and more efficient for immigrants and border enforcement. This topic is extremely important and relevant to the present time and to North and Latin American societies because Latino/as pay large sums of money to get to the border, some cross without authorization, many are trafficking or smuggled, and many immigrants die trying to get to the United States to work and survive. In order to help save lives, reduce human suffering, and reach a comprehensive immigration policy within our current system, Americans and our politicians must understand why these immigrants are immigrating to the United States in the first place, and if the United States brought some of its immigration “woes” upon itself. It is imperative to the United States to look for long-term solution that help these immigrants instead of simply putting a band-aid on the issue, which is what our current policies are accomplishing through President Trump’s Wall and other deterrence methods . This paper also explores the main immigration policy presently, the Border Wall, and assesses whether or not this could be sound policy. This work explores this topic by examining the roots of Guatemala and Costa Rica’s present day economies and how these contribute to their immigration to the United States. Moreover, the author will examine the positives and negatives of past immigration policies that the United States has implemented. By doing this, the author hopes to reach a conclusion concerning the best immigration or economic policies going forward in order to reach the goal of safe immigration to the United States and the economic success of Guatemala and Costa Rica.

description: Massive amounts of hyperinflation have been ravaging Venezuela for years. Forbes reported that the annual inflation rate for Venezuela in 2018 was 80,000%. To put this in perspective, an inflation rate this high doubles prices nearly every two weeks. Inflation rates this high haven’t been seen since Zimbabwe in the 2000s and Germany in the 1920s. Venezuela’s high inflation levels are due to the sum total effect of relying too heavily on imports for basic goods, depending on oil as its main export, inefficient government industries, and governmental corruption. While this would have been enough to warrent a thesis on its own, there is more to the story of hyperinflation in Venezuela. Beneath the current economic crisis is a political power struggle. On one side is the current President Nicolas Maduro, head of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela. Challenging him is the interim President of the National Assembly Juan Guaido, from the Popular Will party. To complicate matters further, the United States officially recognized Guaido as the legitimate president of Venezuela. The intersectionality of econoimcs and politics is what intrigued me about Venezuela’s situation. As I started research, I learned that the easiest method for fighting hyperinflation, dollarization, is politically unavailable to President Maduro. Doing so would be seen as a sign of defeat for the leader who has spent so much time denouncing the United States. From here, I started to expand my search for other ways in which Venezuela might be able to fix its economy. In my thesis, I aim to detail what hyperinflation is, where it has occurred in the past, and the solutions those countries employed to get their economies back on track. I will then explore how Venezuela got to the point it is today in regards to their inflation rate and how the solutions previously examined might be successful or unsuccessful. With increasing tensions between the U.S. and Venezuela, it will be interesting to examine how the unique political situation of Venezuela affects the options for remedying the hyperinflation of the country. I will analyze both the economic as well as the political viability of any and all proposed solutions to the Venezuelan situation.

description: In order to assess the overall adoption of precision agriculture technologies in Canada, members of the Ontario Agri Business Association (OABA) or the Canadian Association of Agri-Retailers (CAAR) were surveyed on their own use and offerings of precision agriculture technologies and services as well their perception of farmers use of these technologies. There is a significant regional difference in the role that custom application services play in the adoption of precision agriculture technologies. In Ontario dealerships commonly custom apply crop inputs on behalf of the farmer. Guidance systems and observational technologies are commonly employed by dealerships in Ontario to apply crop inputs bought by farmers. in the Prairie provinces, farmers, and not dealerships, apply the purchased inputs. There is potential for future adoption of precision agriculture technologies for both dealerships and farmers, however barriers do exist. These barriers largely relate to the cost of the precision agriculture and the value propositions of these services. As both dealers and farmers become more educated about the benefits of precision agriculture and the costs associated with precision agriculture fall, the overall adoption of precision agriculture will increase.

PREREQUISITES FOR NATURAL APPROACHES IN LINGUISTICS

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The article analyzes a number of points of ecolinguistics, which are the prerequisites for methodological and conceptual system of household and outside inquire about. Ecolinguistic strategies are highlighted and the issues of ecolinguistics in medialinguistics are sketched out. Specific consideration is paid to the creation of an integrator approach as the premise of orderly biology. The recognizing highlights of environmental worldview appearance within the science of dialect based on the developing slant of ecolinguistics are emphasized. The article bargains with the terms and definitions related with the ecolinguistics , which speak to two fundamental headings:

1) ecolinguistics, which thinks about the quality of dialect in terms of human well-being,

2) ecolinguistics, which looks at the state of dialect as a dialect framework from the point of view of anthropogenic impact through dialect on the environment.

It is famous that the unused biological worldview shifts the accentuation from people to their interaction with the environment. It is particularly focused that dialect is competent to act as an impacting environment, ie the scale of its vitality and data interaction is very genuine for the encompassing physical environment of the human being. The conclusion is made that an ecolinguistic paradigm should be emphasized within the ponder of dialect science to address the rising issues of the etymological environment in cutting edge society.

Has economics caught up with climate science?

Subjects: Environmental Economics and Policy

description: Whereas scientific evidence points towards substantial and urgent reduction in greenhouses gas (GHG) emissions, economic analysis of climate change seems to be out of sync by indicating a more gradual approach. In particular, economic models that use benefit cost analysis, namely, integrated assessment models (IAMs) have been criticised for being conservative in their recommendations on the speed of reducing GHG emissions and the associated levels of carbon taxes. This essay focuses on a prototypical IAM, namely, Nordhaus‘ DICE model to argue the schism between science and economics is more apparent than real. Analysis of the DICE model suggests extreme climate scenarios can be captured through alternative specifications of the damage function (the impact of temperature on the economy). In particular, damage functions that extend the standard quadratic representation are highly convex (Weitzman 2012). Thus, they are able to capture climate tipping points as well as ―fat tail‖ risks originating from uncertainty with regard to equilibrium climate sensitivity.

Subjects: Land Economics/Use

description: The private, collective and public nature of soil quality in a watershed provides three different institutional alternatives for watershed management: individual, collective and government action. This study reviews the success and failure of these alternatives in different parts of the world. Individual action by a farmer is driven by the net present value of farm profit and the resale value of the agricultural land. However, individual action for soil conservation remains sub-optimal due to the presence of negative externality and the short-run income loss to the farmer. Many government and development agencies have designed several mechanisms such as collective and government actions to internalise the externality. However, not all these alternative initiatives have been successful in ensuring successful management of soil quality in a watershed.
