Data compilation on the biological response to ocean acidification: environmental and experimental context of data sets and related literature

The exponential growth of studies on the biological response to ocean acidification over the last few decades has generated a large amount of data. To facilitate data comparison, a data compilation hosted at the data publisher PANGAEA was initiated in 2008 and is updated on a regular basis (doi:10.1594/PANGAEA.149999). By January 2015, a total of 581 data sets (over 4 000 000 data points) from 539 papers had been archived. Here we present the developments of this data compilation five years since its first description by Nisumaa et al. (2010). Most of study sites from which data archived are still in the Northern Hemisphere and the number of archived data from studies from the Southern Hemisphere and polar oceans are still relatively low. Data from 60 studies that investigated the response of a mix of organisms or natural communities were all added after 2010, indicating a welcomed shift from the study of individual organisms to communities and ecosystems. The initial imbalance of considerably more data archived on calcification and primary production than on other processes has improved. There is also a clear tendency towards more data archived from multifactorial studies after 2010. For easier and more effective access to ocean acidification data, the ocean acidification community is strongly encouraged to contribute to the data archiving effort, and help develop standard vocabularies describing the variables and define best practices for archiving ocean acidification data.

Características dos sistemas de cultivos da agricultura familiar em São Gabriel da Cachoeira- Amazonas.

Esse trabalho foi desenvolvido com objetivo de caracterizar as práticas de agricultura familiar adotadas por oito agricultores residentes em quatro localidades distintas do município de São Gabriel da Cachoeira. O método de pesquisa usado foi o Estudo de Caso que adotou como ferramenta na pesquisa de campo um roteiro de entrevista como perguntas abertas e fechadas a fim de obter informações acerca da situação socioeconômica e produtiva dos agricultores familiares. Observou-se na pesquisa, que os agentes sociais adotam práticas tanto da agricultura tradicional como da agricultura convencional, como o uso de agrotóxicos e adubos químico nos cultivos. Apesar da grande influência das técnicas da agricultura, dita "moderna", ainda é muito presente na agricultura familiar local práticas ancestrais, dentre essas podemos citar o cultivo em miscelânea e uso sustentável dos recursos naturais como caça e a pesca, utilizadas somente como atividades para o auto sustento.

Ficciones palpables: una aproximación a la configuración de la reputación y su relación con la memoria en la novela Las reputaciones de Juan Gabriel Vásquez

Esta investigación tiene como objetivo analizar los espacios comunes entre los conceptos de memoria y reputación en la novela Las Reputaciones de Juan Gabriel Vásquez. En esta medida, se planteará que la formación del recuerdo individual y colectivo está mediada por prácticas políticas que pretenden una determinada reputación y que no solo influyen sobre la manera misma en que se hace memoria sino que además son determinantes en la imagen de unas figuras como los personajes Javier Mallarino, Samanta Leal y Adolfo Cuellar. Para llevar a cabo este planteamiento se tendrán en cuenta los conceptos de política desde Jaques Rancière, y memoria de Paul Ricoeur y Pilar Riaño, que serán analizados desde el enfoque filosófico de la ciencia política.

Neste relatório irão ser expostos os trabalhos realizados com as turmas do 7º ano, na Escola E.B.I. André de Resende e 12º ano, na Escola Secundária Gabriel Pereira. Ainda será mencionada a participação numa actividade extracurricular, no âmbito das Necessidades Educativas Especiais. Nesta área foi tamb��m realizada uma exposição com os trabalhos dos alunos da Escola E.B. I. André de Resende, juntamente com escolas pertencentes a outros agrupamentos da região. O estágio mencionado previu proporcionar uma vivência entre alunos, professores e os restantes funcionários da escola. Não obstante, tamb��m o contacto exterior e a ligação interdisciplinar. Seguindo as orientações curriculares do Ministério da Educação, em cada caso especifico foram planificadas aulas adequadas ao ensinamento dos conteúdos determinados. ABSTRACT: ln this report will be exposed the works performed together with the 7th grade classes of Escola E.B.I. André de Resende and with the 12th grade of Escola Secundária Gabriel Pereira. Also, it will be mentioned the participation in an extracurricular activity in the scope of Special Educational Needs. ln this area was also performed an exhibit of the works of the students from Escola E.B.I. André de Resende, along with schools belonging to other inter-school groupings of the region. The mentioned traineeship predicted the enabling of a relationship between students, teachers and school community, as well as contact with the exterior and an interdisciplinary connection. According to the curricular orientations of Ministério da Educação, for each specific case were planned classes adequate to teach the determined subjects.

The S.T.A.B. Trial - Standardised Testing of Artificial Blood. A comparative study of various products that may be used as artificial blood for high fidelity simulation training in the critical care setting

Aim: In the current climate of medical education, there is an ever-increasing demand for and emphasis on simulation as both a teaching and training tool. The objective of our study was to compare the realism and practicality of a number of artificial blood products that could be used for high-fidelity simulation. Method: A literature and internet search was performed and 15 artificial blood products were identified from a variety of sources. One product was excluded due to its potential toxicity risks. Five observers, blinded to the products, performed two assessments on each product using an evaluation tool with 14 predefined criteria including color, consistency, clotting, and staining potential to manikin skin and clothing. Each criterion was rated using a five-point Likert scale. The products were left for 24 hours, both refrigerated and at room temperature, and then reassessed. Statistical analysis was performed to identify the most suitable products, and both inter- and intra-rater variability were examined. Results: Three products scored consistently well with all five assessors, with one product in particular scoring well in almost every criterion. This highest-rated product had a mean rating of 3.6 of 5.0 (95% posterior Interval 3.4-3.7). Inter-rater variability was minor with average ratings varying from 3.0 to 3.4 between the highest and lowest scorer. Intrarater variability was negligible with good agreement between first and second rating as per weighted kappa scores (K = 0.67). Conclusion: The most realistic and practical form of artificial blood identified was a commercial product called KD151 Flowing Blood Syrup. It was found to be not only realistic in appearance but practical in terms of storage and stain removal.

Can B.I.M be civil?

After many years of development BIM (Building Information Modelling) is starting to achieve significant penetration into the building sector of the construction industry. This paper describes the current status of BIM and the drivers that are motivating the change from 2D CAD to BIM within the building sector. The paper then discusses what the implications of the technology underlying BIM may be for the civil construction sector of the construction industry. A project carried out by the Cooperative Research Centre for Construction Innovation is used as an example of this technology as well as several international examples.

Cognitive assessment in closed head injury : stability, validity and parallel forms for two neuropsychological measures of recovery

Investigated the psychometric properties of the original and alternate sets of the Trail Making Test (TMT) and the Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT; A. L. Benton and D. Hamsher, 1978) in 50 orthopedic and 15 closed head injured (1 yr after trauma) patients (aged 15–59 yrs). Although the alternate forms of both measures proved to be stable and consistent with each other in both groups, only the parallel sets of TMT reliably discriminated the clinical group from controls. Practice effects in the head injured were significant only for Trail B of TMT. Factor analysis of the control group's results identified Verbal Knowledge as a major contributor to performance on COWAT, whereas TMT was more dependent on Rapid Visual Search and Visuomotor Sequencing.
