STUDY OF THE CONDITIONS OF RIVERBED FORMATION OF THE PEREDKARPATTIA RIVERS WITHIN THE ALLUVIAL PLAINS

The article reveals the results of the study of the main factors of river riverbed formation within the foothills.Based on the results of previous studies, archival materials and own works, the effect of the main factors of channel formation was investigated according to the author's functional-basin scheme for the conditions of alluvial plains. The territory of Peredkarpathia and the adjacent parts of the Carpathians and Podillia, which are characterized by extended areas of river valley bottoms filled with alluvium (alluvial plains), were chosen for the study. The artificial limitation of the research area is the state border of Ukraine. The selected territory of the study was tentatively called the hydrological and riverbed science Peredkarpathia, but it goes beyond the geomorphological Peredkarpathia It is proposed to study the features of riverbed formation conditions of the main watercourses within the study area (alluvial plains) in stages. The author singled out four levels of research detailing, each of which has a corresponding plan (research algorithm). At the first (highest) level of consideration, an overview map of alluvial plains was drawn up, showing alluvial plains within the study area against the background of the general structure of the territory, the main orotectonic structures. On the second, survey maps of the alluvial plains of the first order were created. They show the main alluvial plains of the region as river-valley systems associated with negative orotectonic structures and adjacent formations. At the third level of consideration, we compiled survey and analytical maps of second-order alluvial plains. Here are shown the extended areas of the bottom of the valleys of the main rivers within the alluvial plains of the first order. The maps also show the main features of the internal relief of the bottom of the valleys; hydrographic grid; generalized boundaries of multi-year riverbed formation bands, floodplains and boundaries of homogeneous sections of riverbeds and floodplains. One hundred homogeneous sections of riverbeds and floodplains on 18 main rivers were identified within the study area, and a description of their sequence along the rivers within the alluvial plains was also made. At the fourth stage, we selected analytical maps of parts of the alluvial plains of the second order. They reflect the details of the topography of the bottom of river valleys (as well as the hydrographic grid as an indicator of the structure of the bottom), the presence of bedrock outcrops for the analysis of local conditions of the development of the stream-channel system. Keywords. geohydromorphological analysis; riverbed processes; alluvial plains; homogeneous areas; riverbed-forming flows.

Tailoring Tactile Maps Based on Blind Users’ Needs

Abstract. The Sustainable Development Goals aim to "leave no one behind," including visually impaired individuals who should have equal access to information. However, the production of tactile maps for the visually impaired has been inhibited by factors such as a lack of data and technology, cartographical challenges, and high production costs. To address this issue, two research projects developed prototype tactile maps for visually impaired users and evaluated their usability through a focus group discussion and hands-on experience. In the first project, the maps were appreciated for their continuous style, thematic versatility, and proportional information density. Suggestions for improvement included the addition of a clear map title, an overview map, a mandatory legend, and distinguishable icons. Tactile maps were seen as supplementary to mobile navigation by providing a geographical overview, information about locations of interest, creating and correcting cognitive pictures of the living environment, and sharpening geographical and common knowledge. The second project focused on refining the results in multiple iterations, and for this purpose a multidisciplinary consortium was formed that, in collaboration with a test panel of visually impaired users, contributed to the aim of making tactile topography on-demand, fit-for-purpose and globally available.

Cellulase–lactic acid bacteria synergy action regulates silage fermentation of woody plant

BackgroundFeed shortage is an important factor limiting livestock production in the world. To effectively utilize natural woody plant resources, we used wilting and microbial additives to prepare an anaerobic fermentation feed of mulberry, and used PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology to analyse the “enzyme–bacteria synergy” and fermentation mechanism.ResultsThe fresh branches and leaves of mulberry have high levels of moisture and nutrients, and also contain a diverse range of epiphytic microorganisms. After ensiling, the microbial diversity decreased markedly, and the dominant bacteria rapidly shifted from Gram-negative Proteobacteria to Gram-positive Firmicutes. Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) emerged as the dominant microbial population, resulting in increased in the proportion of the carbohydrate metabolism and decreased in the proportion of the amino acid and “global and overview map” (GOM) metabolism categories. The combination of cellulase and LAB exhibited a synergistic effect, through which cellulases such as glycanase, pectinase, and carboxymethyl cellulase decomposed cellulose and hemicellulose into sugars. LAB converted these sugars into lactic acid through the glycolytic pathway, thereby improving the microbial community structure, metabolism and fermentation quality of mulberry silage. The GOM, carbohydrate metabolism, and amino acid metabolism were the main microbial metabolic categories during ensiling. The presence of LAB had an important effect on the microbial community and metabolic pathways during silage fermentation. A “co-occurrence microbial network” formed with LAB, effectively inhibiting the growth of harmful microorganisms, and dominating the anaerobic fermentation process.ConclusionsIn summary, PacBio SMRT was used to accurately analyse the microbial network information and regulatory mechanism of anaerobic fermentation, which provided a scientific basis for the study of woody silage fermentation theory. This study reveals for the first time the main principle of the enzyme–bacteria synergy in a woody silage fermentation system, which provides technical support for the development and utilization of woody feed resources, and achieves sustainable livestock production.

Mapping the lesson: network graphs and microgenres

ABSTRACT While the use of video recording as a method of data collection has helped researchers to resolve the challenge of capturing classroom interactions between teachers and students, it can be challenging for the researchers and teachers to make sense of the rich data collected. This paper describes an approach of analysing and visualising a language lesson with lesson microgenre and network graphs to provide an overview map of the lesson enactment. Studying the language lesson from a lesson microgenre perspective can provide both the co-text and context of the lesson when specific segments of the lesson are identified for interpretation and reflection by the teacher. The lesson map is visualised using network graphs to show the progression, connections, and patterns of the lesson microgenres. The paper describes the application of the approach in a study of the English lessons conducted by two teachers in a Singapore primary school and discuss the implications of the approach on teacher training.

The past is the key to the future – considering Pleistocene subglacial erosion for the minimum depth of a radioactive waste repository

Abstract. Erosion during potential future glaciations, especially the incision of deep tunnel valleys, is a major challenge for the long-term safety of a radioactive waste repository. Tunnel valleys are a common feature of formerly glaciated sedimentary basins and were incised by pressurised subglacial meltwater. Besides glaciological conditions, tunnel-valley formation depends strongly on the erodibility and hydraulic conductivity of the substratum. In northern Germany, tunnel valleys formed during the Pleistocene glaciations are widespread and may attain depths of almost 600 m. The Pleistocene record may provide an indication for the potential regional distribution and maximum depth of future glaciogenic erosion. We present a new overview map of the maximum depth of Pleistocene erosion in northern Germany. Depth zones were extracted from the existing data and maps provided by the state geological surveys. Based on the mapped depth zones, the potential for future tunnel-valley formation can be assessed. The map may serve as a base to define a spatially variable additional depth that should be added to the minimum depth of a repository required by legislation.

Structural and functional characteristics of soil microbial community in a Pinus massoniana forest at different elevations.

Shifts in forest soil microbial communities over altitudinal gradients have long been attracting scientific interest. The distribution patterns of different soil microbial communities along altitudinal gradients in subtropical mountain forest ecosystems remain unclear. To better understand the changes in soil microbial communities along an altitude gradient, we used Illumina MiSeq metagenome sequencing technology to survey the soil microbial communities in a Pinus massoniana forest at four elevations (Mp1000, Mp1200, Mp1400, Mp1600) and in a tea garden in Guizhou Leigong Mountain in Southwestern China. We observed that the richness of bacteria, fungi, and viruses in the soil microbial community changed in a unimodal pattern with increasing elevation while that of Archaea first increased significantly, then decreased, and finally increased again. Euryarchaeota and Thaumarchaeota were the predominant Archaea, Proteobacteria and Acidobacteria were the predominant bacterial groups, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were the predominant fungal groups, and Myoviridae, Podoviridae, and Siphoviridae were the predominant virus groups. Amino acid transport and metabolism, energy production and conversion, signal transduction mechanisms, and DNA replication, restructuring and repair were the predominant categories as per NOG function gene-annotation. Carbohydrate metabolism, global and overview map, amino acid metabolism, and energy metabolism were predominant categories in the KEGG pathways. Glycosyl transferase and glycoside hydrolase were predominant categories among carbohydrate enzyme-functional genes. Cluster, redundancy, and co-occurring network analyses showed obvious differences in the composition, structure, and function of different soil microbial communities along the altitudinal gradient studied. Our findings indicate that the different soil microbial communities along the altitudinal gradient have different distribution patterns, which may provide a better understanding of the mechanisms that determine microbial life in a mid-subtropical mountain forest ecosystem.

ASSESSING CROPLAND ABANDONMENT FROM VIOLENT CONFLICT IN CENTRAL MALI WITH SENTINEL-2 AND GOOGLE EARTH ENGINE

Abstract. The proposed analysis based on Sentinel-2 imagery provides evidence of impacts of the conflict in the Mopti region (central Mali), which has led to widescale cropland abandonment. This area is characterized by rapidly rising levels of violence since 2018, due to the presence of armed groups and the proliferation of self-defence militias. This study investigates how high-resolution optical imagery can help evaluate the linkages between violence and land cover / land use (LCLU) change. The processing environment of Google Earth Engine was used to generate the so-called 3-Period TimeScan (3PTS) product, a RGB composite combining the maximum NDVI values in the beginning, in the middle and in the end of the growing season, used to single out cultivated land for each year of interest. Theoretically, the period between June 15th and October 15th covers an annual agricultural cycle for the considered area; consequently, images acquired during that period were used to generate the 3PTS composites for the year of interest (2019) and for pre-conflict years. By comparing the situations before and after the start of the crisis, each populated site was categorized according to the degree of cropland change detected in its surroundings. The resulting overview map enables a regional-scale interpretation of farming activities in 2019, clearly highlighting localized areas of cropland abandonment in the region and showing a strong spatial correlation with incidence of conflict.

Visualization of Arabidopsis root system architecture in 3D by refraction-contrast X-ray micro-computed tomography.

Plant roots change their morphological traits in order to adapt themselves to different environmental conditions, resulting in the alteration of the root system architecture. To understand this mechanism, it is essential to visualize the morphology of the entire root system. To reveal effects of long-term alteration of gravity environment on root system development, we have performed an experiment in the International Space Station using Arabidopsis plants and obtained dried root systems grown in rockwool slabs. The X-ray computed tomography (CT) technique using industrial X-ray scanners has been introduced to visualize the root system architecture of crop species grown in soil in 3D non-invasively. In the case of the present study, however, the root system of Arabidopsis is composed of finer roots compared with typical crop plants and rockwool is also composed of fibers having similar dimension to that of the roots. A higher spatial resolution imaging method is required for distinguishing roots from rockwool. Therefore, in the present study, we tested refraction-contrast X-ray micro-CT using coherent X-ray optics available at the beamline of the synchrotron radiation facility SPring-8 for bio-imaging. We have found that a wide field of view but with low resolution obtained at the experimental Hutch 3 of this beamline provided an overview map of the root systems, while a narrow field of view but with high resolution obtained at the experimental Hutch 1 provided an extended architecture of the secondary roots, by a clear distinction between roots and individual rockwool fibers, resulting in the successful tracing of these roots from their basal regions.

Collaborative Maze Game Using EEG for Paralyzed Patients

The brain movement of a general paralysis patient is normal even if the nerve cells that connect the brain and muscles are damaged and the body movement is hindered. When these patients live alone and cannot perform daily activities, they lose the motivation to live, their brains become dull, and their self-esteem degrades. Therefore, a method should be developed such that these patients can perform brain exercises on their own. The development of a maze-finding game based on mutual cooperation using electroencephalography (EEG) for patients with general paralysis is described herein. Paralyzed Patient 1 can view an overview map and identify the path to a destination. When this is sent to Paralyzed Patient 2 through brain waves, direction indications appear on the screen viewed by Patient 2. Patient 2 verifies the signal conveyed by Patient 1 and controls the character in the perceived direction using brain wave signals. In this game, EGG data through the EPOC+ device of Emotiv Co. are collected, and the maze game implemented by the patient’s EEG signal can be played. Excitement and interest arise when two people collaborate compared with when they are playing games in solitude. This finding suggests that paralyzed patients can exercise their own brain without any assistance, enabling them to experience more enjoyment in life and improve their self-image compared with when they are collaborating and interacting with assistants.

Картографирование сезонной автотранспортной доступности Арктического региона России

Transport accessibility is one of the main categories in transport research and planning of socio-economic development of territories. For Russia, which has the largest area of the northern and arctic territories, this problem is especially urgent. The presence and condition of the road network determines the territorial integrity and unity of the economic space, therefore fulfilling the most important strategic task of the spatial integration of the country. Automobile transport in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation is poorly developed and is characterized by a low density of the public network. Its main features are the disunity of the road network, the heterogeneous degree of transport development of the territories and the noticeable role of winter roads in the road infrastructure. An integral part of the transport logistics of the Arctic regions of Russia are winter roads, which allow transportation in the winter season at the lowest cost. The purpose of this study is to develop a database structure and thematic mapping of automobile roads in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation, taking into account the seasonality of their operation. As a result of this work, a classification of winter automobile roads and ice crossings of the Arctic territories was developed and an overview map “Seasonal road transport accessibility of the Arctic region of Russia” at a scale of 1:20,000,000 was compiled. The map demonstrates the contrast between the relatively good winter transport development of the territory and summer impassability. On the basis of statistical materials, maps “Density of all-season motorable roads” and “Level of motorization” were compiled, which give an idea of the differentiation of the regions of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation by these indicators. A high level of motorization significantly exceeds the capacity of the existing roads. This is due to the fact that off-road transport is the only guarantor of mobility for the population of hard-to-reach settlements.

ПРИНЦИПЫ РАЗРАБОТКИ И ПОСТРОЕНИЯ КАРТЫ «ФАУНИСТИЧЕСКИЕ КОМПЛЕКСЫ БАЙКАЛЬСКОГО РЕГИОНА»

Small-scale zoological mapping represents the highest level of abstraction, when not only the most important local features of the spatial differentiation of the population are taken into account but also the general zoogeographic patterns inherent in individual species, faunistic complexes, or fauna as a whole. The development of the methodology for compiling maps and legends, the introduction of geographic information systems and computer data processing significantly expand the modern possibilities of zoological mapping. Currently, the literature and various departmental documents have accumulated a wealth of information on the species composition, distribution and number of terrestrial vertebrate species in the Baikal region, more or less complete descriptions of the animal population in individual territories are given. Integration of the disparate data by creating a map of the vertebrate population makes it possible to visualize the structure and distribution of various types of the population, as well as to reveal the generalpatterns of their formation over a vast territory. The paper describes the experience of compiling a zoological map ‘Faunistic complexes of the Baikal region’ and its legend on a scale of 1: 5 000 000. This is the first overview map created for such a vast territory, it includes 1,400 units in the main layer and contains information about 2 classes, 7 types and 13 subtypes of faunistic complexes.

Карта растительности Норского заповедника (Амурская область)

The Norsky State Nature Reserve is located in Selemdzhinsky district of the Amurskaya oblast. Its area is 211 168 ha. Currently the flora of the Norsky Nature Reserve is studied in details. A species list has been published and an analysis of the flora has been made (Starchenko, Chuvasheva, 1993; Veklich, 2009). The vegetation cover is poorly studied; so far no geobotanical map of the Reserve has been compiled. Only the overview map (scale 1 : 2 500 000) of the vegetation of the Amur basin (1969) gives an idea of the vegetation as a whole. The climatic characteristics of the territory and the complex relief determine the diversity of plant habitats and their communities. The climate of the Norsky Reserve is continental with monsoon features and even ultracontinental (after A. I. Kaigorodov (1955). The modern relief of the Reserve includes wide floodplains of Nora and Selemdzha rivers, accumulative delta-terraces plain, Norskaya accumulative denudation plain (Geomorphologiya..., 1973) and hills. According to the latest botanical and geographical zoning of the Amurskaya oblast, the Norsky Reserve belongs to the Mamynskiy and Ulmsko-Aldikonskiy districts of the Turan-Mamyn province of the Manchurian subdistrict of the East Asian area (Borisova,Starchenko, 2018). The province belongs to southern taiga with some elements of nemoral forests (Quercus mongolica, Tilia amurensis and etc.) along the valleys of Selemdzha River and its major tributaries. The southern taiga includes different larch forests (often disturbed), derived birch-larch forests with Pinus sylvestris, Picea ajanensis and Abies nephrolepis. The presence of nemoral species in forest cenoses increases in the direction from north to south. A province peculiarity is the wide distribution of larch peatmoss forests, swamps and wet meadows. The scientific-reference typological map of vegetation on a medium scale (1 : 300 000) was compiled for the Norsky Nature Reserve for the first time. It shows spatial patterns of vegetation distribution in connection with the natural features of the territory (Fig. 5). The vegetation map legend is based on an ecologic and phytocoenotic classification. A zonal distribution of plant communities is presented in the legend. Plant communities are divided into some categories: dark-coniferous, light-coniferous and derived forests, which are represented as formations. The main cartographic units are groups of associations and their various combinations. The legend shows the vegetation of floodplains, rocks, and disturbed areas. Vegetation divisions are represented on the vegetation map by seventeen colors and one extra scale sign. All symbols have their own serial number, which is marked in the map legend. The largest areas on the territory of the Reserve are occupied by larch forests — 42 % (Fig. 6). The forested territory as a whole occupies 36.5 %, of which the largest areas are rhododendron larch (9.7 %) and floodplain (9.5 %) forests. Ledum larch and moss-shrub forests occupy 5.7 %. Larch mixed-grass-shrub forests cover some small areas (2.0 %). Sub-taiga larch forests with nemoral grasses and often with oak and black birch trees occupy 0.6 %. Pine and larch-pine forests extend 1.3 % of the Reserve’s area. Fir-spruce forests on watersheds have limited distribution — about 1 %. They are a chain of ecologic-dynamic series on floodplain occupying 2.7 % of the Reserve’s area. To conclude, the vegetation cover of the Norsky Nature Reserve reflects the zonal and provincial features of the territory.

Territorial Interrelation between Innovation and a Number of Social/Infrastructural Indicators in Central and Eastern Europe (V4 + Romania)

Abstract The study examines the performance of the Visegrád countries and Romania. As an indicator of innovation performance, we used the number of researchers measured from the active population. Due to the large variations in the size of the administrative-territorial units, the use of this ratio seems more adequate than using absolute values. The innovation indicator and the other indicators used are included in the analysis database in a regional breakdown. All indicators have an overview map of the entire large region for the purpose of establishing the territorial profile. In the course of the statistical investigation, each indicator was individually compared to the innovation index.

Comparative analysis of the down syndrome hippocampal non-coding RNA transcriptomes using a mouse model.

Down syndrome (DS), caused by trisomy 21, is the most common human chromosomal disorder. Hippocampal abnormalities have been believed to be responsible for the DS developmental cognitive deficits. Cumulative evidences indicated that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) participated in brain development and function. Currently, few was known whether dysregulated ncRNAs existed in DS whether the dysregulated ncRNAs played important pathology roles in DS. The purpose of this study was generating an overview map of the dysregulated ncRNAs in DS, including the microRNA (miRNA), long ncRNA (lncRNA) and circular RNA (circRNAs). DS mouse models are invaluable tools for further mechanism and therapy studies. The well-studied DS mouse model Dp(16)1/Yey was used in this study as it contains the trisomy of the whole human chromosome 21 syntenic region on mouse chromosomes 16. Hippocampi were isolated from pups of seven-days-old. Libraries for miRNA, lncRNA and circRNAs were constructed separately, and the next generation sequencing method was utilized. Differentially expressed (DE) miRNAs, lncRNAs and circRNAs were reported. Relative few regulating relationship were found between the DE miRNAs and DE mRNAs. LncRNAs originated from the trisomic regions expressed in clusters, but not all of them were 1.5-fold increased expressed. Dramatic DE circular RNAs were found in the DS hippocampus. The host genes of the DE circRNAs were enriched on functions which were well-known impaired in DS, e.g. long-term-potentiation, glutamatergic synapse, and GABAergic synapse. We generated the first DS developmental hippocampal ncRNA transcriptome map. This work laid foundations for further investigations on role of ncRNAs in hippocampal functions.

Effects of the Design of Overview Maps on Three-Dimensional Virtual Environment Interfaces.

This study examined how users acquire spatial knowledge in an onscreen three-dimensional virtual environment when using overview maps. This experiment adopted a three (the size of overview maps) x two (the transparency of overview maps) between-subjects design. Three levels of the size of overview maps were evaluated, i.e., 1/2, 1/8, and 1/16 screen size. Comparisons between 20% transparent and 80% transparent were made. We asked 108 participants to complete spatial perception tasks and fill out questionnaires regarding their feelings. The results indicate the following: (1) The effects of the transparency of overview maps on users’ spatial perception vary with the size of overview maps. The 80% transparent overview map is significantly more efficient than the 20% transparent overview map in the condition of 1/2 screen size. However, the result is opposite in the condition of 1/8 screen size. (2) Users like the 80% transparent overview map significantly better than the 20% transparent overview map in the condition of 1/2 screen size. (3) Concerning subjective evaluations of satisfaction, preference, and system usability, overview maps in the condition of 1/8 screen size are significantly better than those in the condition of 1/2 screen size.

A systematic review of cyber-resilience assessment frameworks

Cyber-attacks are regarded as one of the most serious threats to businesses worldwide. Organizations dependent on Information Technology (IT) derive value not only from preventing cyber-attacks, but also from responding promptly and coherently when cyber-attacks happen so as to minimize their disruptive effect on operations. This capacity is known as cyber-resilience. As multiple cyber-resilience frameworks (CRF) have been proposed in literature, an increased clarity about the scope, characteristics, synergies and gaps in existing CRFs will facilitate scientific research advancement in this area. This paper uses a systematic literature review to identify extant research on CRFs. The analysis is based on a sample representing 36 different industries and 25 different research areas. Through the use of descriptive analysis and thematic categorization, this paper makes a contribution by identifying CRFs as either strategic or operational, by the hierarchy of their decision influence, by the attacks addressed, and through the methods used and the places and institutions doing CRF research. As a result, this work presents an overview map of the current CRF research landscape, identifies relevant research gaps, highlights similarities and synergies between CRFs, and proposes opportunities for interdisciplinary research, as a contribution to guide future research in this area.

Wayfinding in Virtual Environments With Landmarks on Overview Maps

AbstractThis study aims to improve users’ positive experiences in wayfinding in virtual environments through empirical research on the influence of different designs of landmarks on overview maps. The experiment adopted a four (landmark) x two (gender) between-subjects design. Landmarks with symbols, symbols and images, symbols and text, and symbols, images and text were examined. Fifty-six participants were invited to complete three wayfinding tasks and fill out questionnaires. The generated results indicated that: (1) Landmark presentation styles significantly affect wayfinding performance on overview maps in virtual environments. (2) Concerning subjective rationality, system usability and perceived usefulness, the use of text in landmark design can significantly improve users’ evaluations of overview maps. (3) In terms of gender, females’ system usability evaluations and subjective intentions of using overview map with landmarks are significantly more positive than males’.

On entropy for general quantum systems

In these notes we will give an overview and road map for a definition and characterization of (relative) entropy for both classical and quantum systems. In other words, we will provide a consistent treatment of entropy which can be applied within the recently developed Orlicz space based approach to large systems. This means that the proposed approach successfully provides a refined framework for the treatment of entropy in each of classical statistical physics, Dirac's formalism of Quantum Mechanics, large systems of quantum statistical physics, and finally also for Quantum Field Theory.
