PROFESSIONAL SOCIALIZATION OF STUDENTS IN THE STUDY OF HUMANITIES AT A TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY

This article substantiates the importance of professional socialization of students of a technical university. It is the student age, due to its age-related mental and personal characteristics, that all types of socialization occur intensively. Consequently, students are considered as the most favorable period for professional socialization. In addition, the article analyzes the scientific sources of literature in terms of the definition of the concept of "professional socialization". A huge role in the training of qualified personnel is played by higher education, which lays the basic foundation for the personal and professional development of the younger generation, in whose hands is the future of society and the country as a whole. It should be noted that thanks to the study of humanities at a technical university, it is possible to implement such methods of working with students that will ensure successful professional socialization of junior students at the training stage, form personal qualities and increase the level of professional training. Using the example of specific humanities disciplines, such as "Communication in professional activity", "Business communication" and "Psychology of professional activity", the article presents work with junior students, which forms the social formation of a student's personality and is part of the process of professional socialization.

Directional selection shifts trait distributions of planted species in dryland restoration

Abstract The match between species trait values and local abiotic filters can restrict community membership. An often‐implicit assumption of this relationship is that abiotic filters select for a single locally optimal strategy, though difficulty in isolating effects of the abiotic environment from those of dispersal limitation and biotic interactions has resulted in few empirical tests of this assumption. Similar constraints have made it difficult to assess whether the type and intensity of abiotic filters shift along gradients of environmental harshness, as predicted by the stress‐dominance hypothesis. We planted 9,216 plants of 29 perennial grass and forb species that had a range of functional trait values and were assigned to a warm, intermediate or cool temperature tolerance pool across eight sites on the Colorado Plateau. We compared the distributions of traits of surviving individuals to null distributions to evaluate whether there were shifts in trait means and variation. Borrowing from phenotypic selection concepts in evolutionary biology, we assessed support for stabilizing, directional and disruptive abiotic filtering of trait distributions and whether these types of filtering varied with initial species pool. Functional composition was significantly different from null distributions for nearly all traits at all sites, with trait variation more restricted in harsher abiotic conditions, supporting the stress‐dominance hypothesis. Contrary to expectations, we primarily found evidence for directional selection, which increased in frequency in warm species pools while disruptive selection was found more often in cool and intermediate species pools. Synthesis. This study provides a controlled experimental approach to test the effect of the abiotic environment on plant trait filtering. We found that opportunistic strategies allowing for rapid water acquisition during favourable periods improved survival at warmer sites. Species with these strategies may be expected to benefit from increasing aridity and may be selected for active management efforts. More generally, the prevalence of directional selection may have important implications for dynamic vegetation models that rely on trait distributions for translating environmental variation into ecosystem processes.

Migratory testis, spermatogenesis and reproductive cycle of the neotropical broad-eared bat Nyctinomops laticaudatus (Molossidae)

We describe for the first time the displacement mechanism of migratory testis in Nyctinomops laticaudatus, which is little known in bats, in addition to histological analysis of its gonads. Data on testis anatomy and activity were obtained from 20 males. Males had migratory testes as they are displaced in the inguinal canals between intra and external abdominal positions. The displacement mechanism consisted of a testis ligament composed mainly of smooth muscle tissue attached to the cranial pole of the testis. Since the epididymis is closely tied to the testis, both organs are displaced together, regardless of the individual reproductive condition. Males and females showed seasonal monoestry, with a short mating period at the beginning of the dry season. The occurrence of breeding males was inversely proportional to rain and air temperature. At the mid-dry season, when air temperatures are also lower, males showed testis regressing, remaining in a reproductive hiatus for several months (rest/recrudescence) until the beginning of in the next dry season. Pregnant females were captured at the end of the dry season, and the birth of the young occurred during the rainy season, a time of greater food availability. Thus, females coordinated their reproductive phases to a more favorable period of the year for their survival and that of the offspring. Males associated their spermatogenic activity to a time of no environmental nor physiological restriction related to low air temperature.

The Stalagmite Record of Southern Arabia: Climatic Extremes, Human Evolution and Societal Development

The fluctuating climatic conditions of the Saharo-Arabian deserts are increasingly linked to human evolutionary events and societal developments. On orbital timescales, the African and Indian Summer Monsoons were displaced northward and increased precipitation to the Arabian Peninsula which led to favorable periods for human occupation in the now arid interior. At least four periods of climatic optima occurred within the last 130,000 years, related to Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 5e (128–121 ka BP), 5c (104–97 ka BP), 5a (81–74 ka BP) and 1 (10.5–6.2 ka BP), and potentially early MIS 3 (60–50 ka BP). Stalagmites from Southern Arabia have been key to understanding climatic fluctuations and human-environmental interactions; their precise and high-resolution chronologies can be linked to evidence for changes in human distribution and climate/environment induced societal developments. Here, we review the most recent advances in the Southern Arabian Late Pleistocene and Early Holocene stalagmite records. We compare and contrast MIS 5e and Early Holocene climates to understand how these differed, benchmark the extremes of climatic variability and summarize the impacts on human societal development. We suggest that, while the extreme of MIS 5e was important for H. sapeins dispersal, subsequent, less intense, wet phases mitigate against a simplistic narrative. We highlight that while climate can be a limiting and important factor, there is also the potential of human adaptability and resilience. Further studies will be needed to understand spatio-temporal difference in human-environment interactions in a climatically variable region.

Прогноз рынка сырьевых материалов

The last twenty years have been a favorable period for the global economy. Asian economies grew rapidly, which boosted the demand for key commodities such as gold, copper and iron ore, and increased mining employment worldwide. This growth has been largely driven by the process of globalization and the rising welfare of population in the emerging markets such as China and India. The world is now entering a more dangerous phase of its development, as political and economic tensions between China and the United States are increasing and threaten to nullify the results of the economic progress. A rollback to protectionism and de-globalization may occur. Asia has been the engine of the mining industry, and commodity prices have helped to determine the prospects of the mining cycle. A number of commodities, including copper, have rebounded from their lows in recent months. This suggests that a new phase of economic recovery is starting to gain momentum, opening a new phase in the expansion of the global mining sector.

G post-extraction dry socket

To evaluate the efficiency of oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) in preventing post-extraction dry socket.Materials and Method: We present a single blind, randomised study on 30 patients to evaluate the efficacy of the ORC, placed only once within the alveolus, on the reduction of the incidence of impacted third molar post-extraction dry socket alveolitis and its post-operative effects on patients.Results. A reduction of 42.65% in the occurrence of alveolitis and a more favourable post-operative period in the experimental group was observed. In the control group, the appearance of alveolitis was 30.76% opposite to 5.88 % in the experimental group.Conclusions: The oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC), applied only once after the extraction of impacted third molars, seems to be an appropriate option for the reduction of alveolitis. It improves the buccal aperture and oedema in the post-operative period, although further double blind studies with larger samples are necessary.

Huanglongbing and Citrus Variegated Chlorosis Integrated Management Based on Favorable Periods for Vector Population Increase and Symptom Expression.

Huanglongbing (HLB, associated with Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus and transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri) and citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC, caused by Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca and transmitted by sharpshooter species) have been managed by vector control and removal of symptomatic trees. Although vectors and new symptomatic trees can be detected year round, peaks of vector populations are higher in spring and summer, and the most symptomatic trees are found in autumn and winter. This work aimed to compare the management of both diseases during these favorable periods. The experiment was conducted during 5 years in a commercial orchard and had a three-by-two factorial design. The factor "vector control" had three levels: monthly vector control year round (VCYR), monthly vector control in spring and summer (VCSS), and vector control when a threshold level of 10% occupancy was detected (VCOT). The factor "inoculum removal" had two levels: monthly eradication year round (TEYR) and monthly eradication in autumn and winter (TEAW). Host flush, both HLB and CVC vector populations, and the number of symptomatic citrus plants were visually assessed. The level of vectors over the seasons, as measured using the average area under the curve (AUC), was similar for all treatments with the exception of psyllid abundance, which was approximately 4.5 times higher for VCSS than for other treatments. For both diseases, no difference in the average AUC of disease progress and disease final incidence was observed. VCOT or adjusted VCSS associated with TEAW could be integrated for sustainable citrus production.

Cutting Oxygen Production-Related Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Improved Compression Heat Management in a Cryogenic Air Separation Unit.

Oxygen production in cryogenic air separation units is related to a significant carbon footprint and its supply in the medicinal sphere became critical during the recent COVID-19 crisis. An improved unit design was proposed, utilizing a part of waste heat produced during air pre-cooling and intercooling via absorption coolers, to reduce power consumption. Variable ambient air humidity impact on compressed air dryers’ regeneration was also considered. A steady-state process simulation of a model 500 t h−1 inlet cryogenic air separation unit was performed in Aspen Plus® V11. Comparison of a model without and with absorption coolers yielded an achievable reduction in power consumption for air compression and air dryer regeneration by 6 to 9% (23 to 33 GWh year−1) and a favorable simple payback period of 4 to 10 years, both depending on air pressure loss in additional heat exchangers to be installed. The resulting specific oxygen production decrease amounted to EUR 2–4.2 t−1. Emissions of major gaseous pollutants from power production were both calculated by an in-house developed thermal power plant model and adopted from literature. A power consumption cut was translated into the following annual greenhouse gas emission reduction: CO2 16 to 30 kilotons, CO 0.3 to 2.3 tons, SOx 4.7 to 187 tons and NOx 11 to 56 tons, depending on applied fossil fuel-based emission factors. Considering a more renewable energy sources-containing energy mix, annual greenhouse gas emissions decreased by 50 to over 80%, varying for individual pollutants.

ОСНОВНІ ЧИННИКИ РОЗВИТКУ ЕМОЦІЙНОГО ІНТЕЛЕКТУ МОЛОДШИХ ШКОЛЯРІВ В ІНКЛЮЗИВНОМУ ПРОСТОРІ ПОЧАТКОВОЇ ШКОЛИ

The article highlights an important issue of the development of emotional intelligence in primary school children as an important component of personality formation. The basic concepts of the research topic are revealed. The emotional sphere as an important component of the development of “emotional intelligence” of the personality of a junior schoolchild is analyzed. It is proved that the study of emotional manifestations of children and the development of emotional intelligence in primary schoolchildren with special educational needs is the most important issue, especially in the period of their adaptation to the educational environment of primary school. It is relevant in the light of psychological and pedagogical approach to solve the problem of socialization of such children in society by increasing the level of perception and understanding primarily of themselves as individuals and others, and, very important, to solve the problem of emotional health of the child. . The paper also found that a high level of emotional intelligence affects a child's well-being. Such children are able to regulate their own emotions, they are less prone to stressful circumstances and socially adapted. Children who have a low level of emotional intelligence are more likely to face various difficulties at school; they may have problems with mental development. The child, feeling all the emotions on himself, understanding them, recognizing the emotions of others, becomes more developed in understanding such concepts as “self-control”, “selfregulation of emotions”, etc. It is noted that the early school age is a favorable period for the development of the individual's ability to differentiate and further recognize the emotional states, feelings and experiences of both themselves and others. Junior schoolchildren are able to understand and recognize familiar emotions that have arisen throughout life. It is established that the source of emotions and feelings of junior schoolchildren is the leading educational and play (which is still important) activities. During each important activity, there is a positive and negative experience of feelings, which further affects the behavior, activities, and personality development. Theoretical analysis of the scientific literature has also identified factors in the development of emotional intelligence. A promising area of research will be an experimental study of the level of the development of emotional intelligence in primary schoolchildren in the inclusive space of primary school. &nbsp

Eucalyptus sideroxylon A. Cunn.: A Natural Eucalyptol (1,8-cineole) source in Morocco

The main objective of this work is to determine the effect of the harvest period on the yield and chemical quality of the essential oils of the Eucalyptus sideroxylon A. Cunn. leaves of the Mamora forest, Dayet Zerzour Bnifdel region, Rabat. Essential oil yields are remarkably high above 2.3%, with an ultimate rate of 5.48% for the month of April. The chemical quality of these essential oils is characterized by the presence of two major monoterpenes, 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol) and α-terpineol, which are proportionally inverted in terms of quantity. During the wet months between September and March, the cineole predominates with levels ranging from 72.67% to 86.11% and the other dry months are characterized by an increase of α-terpineol rate from 12.05% to 25.61%. This inverted chemical variability reveals a change in the orientation of cineole and α-terpineol biosynthesis under the control of climatic factors. This work allows us to discern favorable periods for the harvest of Eucalyptus sideroxylon leaves in terms of yield and quality of essential oils.

Reproduction of red-book introduced plants of arboretum (on the example of Eastern Transbaikalia)

The paper presents the results of seed and vegetative reproduction of woody and shrubby introduced plantsincluded in the List of Objects of the plant world listed in the Red Book of the Trans-Baikal Territory. The objects of thestudy are red-book woody and shrubby plants growing on the territory of the arboretum: Picea obovata var. coeruleaMalyschev; Euonymus maackii Rupr.; Corylus heterophylla Fisch. ex Trautv.; Armeniaca sibirica (L.) Lam. The aim of thestudy is to preserve the gene pool of red-book woody and shrubby plants-introduced by seed and vegetative reproduction;to study the timing of cuttings, the effect of various root formation stimulators on the rooting process. Special attentionis paid to the development of methods of vegetative reproduction with the use of various growth stimulators, taking intoaccount the weather conditions of the Trans-Baikal Territory on coniferous and deciduous species. The features and termsof harvesting cuttings are studied. As a result, a favorable period for the process of rooting of coniferous species wasnoted – the phenophase “bud swelling”. The greatest number of roots was formed in cuttings harvested with a “heel”, nottreated with root formation stimulators (“control”). The greatest rooting of green cuttings of shrub species was observed inexperiments with the use of “Kornevin”. Propagation of Armeniaca sibirica showed good results by seed method.

White blood in bronchial asthma. E. V. Loshkarev (Clin. 1Med., 1926, No. 4)

E.V. Loshkarev (Klin. 1Med., 1926, No. 4), tracing the changes that are observed in this disease in white blood cells, found that the most characteristic of them is a drop in eosinophilia during seizures, with an increase in the number of eosinophils in favorable periods, and a similar change on the part of lymphocytes.

A Late Pleistocene Wetland Setting in the Arid Jurf ed Darawish Region in Central Jordan

Current conditions in the southern Levant are hyperarid, and local communities rely on fossil subsurface water resources. The timing of more favourable wetter periods and also their spatial characteristics are not yet well constrained. To improve our understanding of past climate and environmental conditions in the deserts of the southern Levant, sedimentary sections including artefact-bearing beds from Jurf ed Darawish on the Central Jordanian Plateau were investigated using sedimentological and micropalaeontological analyses and OSL dating. Grain-size analysis and structures of the clayey-silty sediments show that they mainly represent reworked loess deposits. The OSL ages suggest that these fine-grained sediments were accumulated during Marine Isotope Stages (MIS) 5-3. Recorded ostracod valves (mostly Potamocypris, Ilyocypris and Pseudocandona), remains of aquatic and terrestrial gastropod shells, and charophyte gyrogonites and stem encrustations indicate that an in-stream wetland existed at the location of Jurf ed Darawish during MIS 5-4 which was replaced by a vegetated alluvial plain in MIS 3. The prevailing aggradational setting was replaced by an erosional setting sometime after 30 ka. Abundant artefacts, distributed over a vertical range of up to 40 cm in a bed covered by a sedimentary sequence of 12-m thickness, provide evidence for the presence of humans in the region during a relatively long period from ca. 85 to 65 ka. The reconstruction of an in-stream wetland at Jurf ed Darawish, and the presence of humans at the site and in other desert regions of the Jordanian Plateau, the Wadi Arava/Araba, and the Negev and the Nefud deserts, show that the regional climate in the late MIS 5 and MIS 4 was significantly wetter than today and provided favourable conditions for humans in the Southern Levant and the northwestern Arabian Peninsula.

This aim of this video is to describe the excision of the mesh and the following treatment of the stress urinary incontinence with an adjustable autologous sling. METHODS: 73-year-old woman with a story of abdominal hysterectomy and cystocele corrected by Prolift mesh, with a recurrence treated by partial colpocleisis with intravesical and vagina extrusion of the mesh, which caused vesicovaginal fistula and stress urinary incontinence diagnosed by cystoscope and pelvic MRI. She suffered an intense pain in the hypogastrium (9/10 points in the Visual Analogue Scale Pain, VASP). The recording was approved by the Institution Ethics Committee. RESULTS: We catheterized both ureters. We removed the calcifications as well as the extruded mesh by an incision in the previous partial colpocleisis. We located and closed the fistula in 3 layers, creating a Martius flap transposed to the vagina. Finally, the stress urinary incontinence was corrected by means of an adjustable autologous sling with the abdominal rectus fascia. The patient presented a favorable postoperative period. Currently, the patient has not pain and has not stress urinary incontinence or voiding and storage symptoms. CONCLUSIONS: The extrusion and calcification of the mesh to correct the prolapse of the pelvic organs is a complication that causes a great impact on the quality life of patients. The treatment of this complication involves the removal of the mesh and the treatment of the associated complications, which can be solved in the same surgical act. The use of an adjustable system with replacement of the synthetic mesh by autologous tissue can be a feasible solution for a complex mesh complication.

Reduction of post-harvest losses through estimation of open air-drying period of agricultural products of mass consumption: case of Benin

ABSTRACT Reducing the post-harvest losses of agricultural products is a current problem which deserves special attention, worldwide. In this work, agro-meteorological parameters collected at different weather stations of Benin Republic were analysed in order to highlight their seasonality, and to identify favourable air-drying periods for agricultural products. Periods from March to May and October to December have the peaks of global radiation and insolation; high temperatures values are concentrated between February and May, and rains sequences are observed from March to November. Cross-analysis of different parameters led to statistically identifying favourable drying periods for agricultural products in each region of the country. The period from November to February was shown to be favourable. It includes most post-harvest periods for most of the cultivated agricultural products and also has the best environmental and practical conditions for natural air-drying.

Modelling inbound international tourism demand in Australia: Lessons from the pandemics

The study explores how international tourism demand in Australia is impacted not only by traditional economic factors but also by uncertainty and risk emanating from pandemics. Using an augmented demand model the paper examines the main determinants of tourism in Australia during the favourable period and what lessons can be drawn to reboot international tourism in the post‐pandemic situation. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first of its kind, which employs a robust second‐generation panel model to examine the impact of pandemic augmenting economic uncertainty upon the international tourism demand in Australia.

Improvement of cultivation technology of spring did wheat in the steppe zone of the South-ern Urals

The article is devoted to the study of the role of black and busy fallows in increasing the productivity of spring durum wheat and maintaining soil fertility in the steppe zone of the Southern Urals. The aim of the study was the effect of the systematic application of mineral fertilizers in crop rotations with various types of fallow on the productivity of spring durum wheat and the preservation of soil fertility. The article presents the average long-term data on the stocks of macronutrients in the soil during the sowing and harvesting of spring durum wheat, its productivity in black and soil-protective (occupied) fallows according to rotations of six-field crop rotations on two nutrition backgrounds. The drought indicator (DTC) of the months of the growing season was calculated on average for rotations of crop rotations, on the basis of which it can be seen that the most favorable period for field crops was in the first rotation (2003-2008). Cultivation of Sudanese grass in busy pairs is an effective soil-protective technique that allows you to increase the productivity of the link with durum wheat and crop rotation in general. The productivity of the link, on average, over 18 years of research, increases by 3.15 tons and 2.79 tons of feed units in comparison with the cultivation of durum wheat on black fallow.

A New Approach to Examine Non-Linear and Mediated Growth and Convergence Outcomes of Cohesion Policy

This paper contributes to a wide range of studies on Cohesion policy (CP) outcomes by proposing a new approach to directly examine its effect on convergence. We extended the non-linear specification of the conditional β-convergence model by introducing 2- and 3-way multiplicative terms and institutions as moderators not only for growth but also for convergence. By developing and calculating conditional slope coefficients and their standard errors, we found empirical evidence that institutional quality can scale down the diminishing marginal impact of funding and even trigger its increase. Our evidence regarding changes to disaggregation levels, programming period, and CP outcomes is robust. Our research findings suggest a redistribution of funds over the 2021–2027 period in favour of projects dedicated to enhancing institutional quality.

Early stages of anchovy: abundance, variability and larval condition at the fixed coastal station EPEA between 2000-2017

Densities of eggs and larvae of Engraulis anchoita and the nutritional condition of larvae were analyzed in the fixed sampling station (EPEA) in the period 2000-2017. These variables were analyzed seasonally and trends over time were determined. Ichthyoplankton samples were collected by oblique trawls using Bongo nets with 300 μm of pore mesh and fixed with formaldehyde 5% in seawater. Six morphometric variables were measured to estimate the nutritional condition of larvae. The developmental stage of each specimen was also determined. The highest mean value of egg density was detected in the October-December period, with a secondary mode in August, followed by one in March. Larval density presented a mode in October. Autumn and spring were the most favorable seasons for larval condition while winter proved to be the least favorable one. An increase in food availability during autumn and spring due to primary and secondary production peaks could explain the high nutritional condition and growth values observed in these seasons at the EPEA. No changes in trends of variables over time were detected. The integrated study of density and nutritional condition of E. anchoita larvae allows the determination of favorable breeding periods for the species, while the continuation of the long term study will allow evaluating possible effects of climate change in the early life stages of this species.

Determination of the influence of the economic cycle stages on the innovative potential of small entrepreneurship

The small business sector is studied. It is hypothesized that the small business sector has a significant innovative potential, the possibilities of which depend on the economic cycle of market conjuncture. It has been hypothesized that innovation investment in the small business sector depends significantly on economic cycles, and that the structure / directions of innovation investment are determined by the global market conjuncture. This is done in order to interpret the systemic / unsystematic development of small business in the context of public policy on the basis of appropriate calculations and the obtained results, as well as provides an understanding of the possibilities of realizing the innovative potential of small business. The peculiarity of this study is its complementarity «innovative potential of small business – technology transfer – economic cycles.» It has been established that investment in innovation and technology transfer in the small business sector depend on market conjuncture and stages of the economic cycle that occur in a certain period (growth or recession). The identification of economic cycles allowed to form the directions of state regulation and reveal the possible risks associated with finding the innovative potential of small business. The conducted research creates a basis for the implementation of the cluster policy program; contributes to the formation of appropriate tools for creating clusters; reveals favorable periods of labor involvement in the realization of innovation potential; helps to identify the periods of economic cycles in which it is appropriate to invest in their own self-education and modern technology. This approach will help increase the level of balance of the small business system on an innovative basis.
