Full textSatellitbilder och volym-area skalningsmetoden användes för att uppskatta glaciärarea och isvolym på Island från Lilla istiden till nutid, för att få fram hur stor höjningen av havsnivån varit under denna tidsperiod (1890 – 2015). Den lilla istiden var en tid av regional kylning då glaciärer nådde sin maximala utsträckning (~1890 för Island) följt av en snabb reträtt efter att denna period slutade. Uppskattningen av isvolym är viktigt att veta på grund av dess relevans i potentiella beräkningar av höjningen av havsnivån. Att förstå båda dessa uppskattningar för Island är kopplat till den påverkan ett förändrat klimat har på regional och global nivå. De olika skalparametrar som använts i volym-area skalningsmetoden för att bestämma volymen av is, och dess motsvarigheter i havsnivå, gav en rad av olika uppskattningar. Detta pekar på behovet att välja ett lämpligt parametervärde baserat på glaciärregionen. En jämförelse med att använda mätningar av massbalans för volymuppskattningar gjordes också, vilket visar skillnader i isvolymförlust över tidigare och nuvarande tidsperioder. Dagens värde på den isländska glaciärarean är uppdaterat från tidigare studier på 10,803 ± 83 km2 och den första rapporterade maximala isländska glaciärarean från Lilla istiden på 12,201 ± 91 km2. För potentiell höjning av havsnivån, har man funnit att den mest tillförlitlig uppskattning från volym-area skalningsmetoden är 2,67 mm från Lilla istidens maximum till nutid, med ett årligt bidrag sedan 1890 av 0,02 mm.

Full textThe Nashoba terrane of SE New England is one of three peri-Gondwanan tectonic blocks caught between Laurentia and Gondwana during the closure of the Iapetus Ocean in the early to mid- Paleozoic. U-Pb analyses (LA-ICP-MS) were carried out on zircon suites from the meta-sedimentary rocks of the Nashoba terrane. The youngest detrital zircons in the meta-sedimentary rocks of the Nashoba terrane are Ordovician in age. There is no significant difference in age between meta-sedimentary units of the Nashoba terrane across the Assabet River Fault Zone, a major fault zone that bisects the NT in a SE and a NW par. Zircon in meta-sedimentary rocks in the Marlboro Fm., the oldest unit of the Nashoba terrane, is rare, which may reflect the basaltic nature of the source material, and is commonly metamict. The Marlboro Fm. contained the oldest detrital grain of all the analyzed samples, with a core of ~3.3 Ga and rim of ~2.6 Ga indicating that it was sourced from Archaen crustal material. Detrital zircons from the Nashoba terrane show a complete age record between the Paleoproterozoic and Paleozoic that strongly supports a provenance from the Oaxiqua margin of Amazonia. The detrital zircon suite of the Nashoba terrane is distinct from both Avalonia and the Merrimack belt; however, they resemble zircon suites from Ganderia. This study proposes that the Nashoba terrane of Massachusetts correlates with the passive trailing edge of Ganderia. Finally, metamorphic zircon analyses of the terrane show that the Nashoba terrane experienced a peak in hydrothermal fluid infiltration during the Neoacadian orogeny

Full textThe evolution of about fifteen glaciers of the Bolivian Eastern Cordillera (16-17°S; 68°W), since their Little Ice Age (LIA) maximum till the late 20th century, has been reconstructed on the basis on ten main moraines observed on the glacier forelands and six aerial photographs. A correspondence between the moraines from a glacier margin to another has been established using geomorphological criteria. These moraines have been dated by lichenometry (Rhizocarpon geographicum s. L. ) using a new statistical method based on the extreme values theory. Glacier maximal extent has been dated from the second half of the 17th century. Glaciers kept, until the first half of the 18th century, a quite similar position. From the 1730s – 40s, they began to retreat nearly continuously. The most important moraines attest to periods of standstill or small advances which were never strong enough to remove former moraines. Glacier retreat accelerated during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Over the 20th century retreat remains fast. Over the whole studied period, glaciers lost about 60% of their maximal extent and the ELA rose by about 135 m. Moraines' dating as well as Bolivian glaciers' evolution since the late 19th century are in good agreement with data available in other places of the tropical Andes such as in Peru and Equator. A synchronism in glacier evolution at a regional scale due to a common climatic forcing can be stressed. We suppose that the Bolivian glaciers' maximal extent was forced by enhanced precipitation (20 to 30% higher than current mean) and reduced temperature (0. 4 to 0. 6°C lower than current mean). In addition, we can note the concomitance between periods of low solar activity and periods of glacier advances. Retreat from the first half of the 18th century could be mainly due to a decrease in precipitation. These hypothesis agree with the results obtained from the scarce climate proxies available in this part of the Andes such as the ice core retrieved in the southern Peru Quelccaya ice cap. During the late 19 – early 20th century, numerous and intense El Niño events, pointed out by several indicators, could be responsible of the accelerated glacier recession which precipitated the LIA ending in the tropical Andes. Unlike the former periods during which glacier evolution appears to have been mainly controlled by precipitation, their retreat during the 20th century seems to have been the result from a combined increase in temperature and humidity

In this context, rather than allocating the quotas based on historical catches, our main suggestion is that the structure of the fishing industry should be considered for allocation of quotas to provide the sustainability of EU fisheries and achieve responsible and effective management of the fishing industry in the EU.

Full textAccording to the World Health Organization, a human being has to use at least 1-3 liters of water a day (Reed & Reed, 2013). In Sweden, water use in households is about 160 liters per person and day in the household (Svenskt vatten, 2016) and around 87 % of the Swedish population are connected to the municipal water and sewage networks (SCB, 2016a). The drinking water in Sweden is used for many purposes, for example cooking, laundry and toilet flushing. Swedish guidelines for the dimensioning of the water networks is based on the publication P83 dimensions of Swedish water- and wastewater systems. The dimensioning guidelines give maximum day factor and maximum hour factor in relation to mean water usage per day and also one day and one day hour usage maximums. The effects of outdoor temperature, building year and socio-economic characteristics on water usage were investigated in this study. Areas of Gothenburg such as Hisingen, Centrum and Östra were studied. These areas and also specific groups in these areas have also been statistically studied through correlation, significance tests and confidence interval investigation. Due to the Swedish personal record law, children under the age of 16 were included in the study but with a modification. The water use for addresses were obtained from Göteborgs Energi AB. Data quality was ensured before statistical analysis thorough data review and analysis. The study’s result showed that the mean income was usually the only variable with significant correlation with the dimensioning parameters. The low-income group was shown to have the highest specific water usage and maximum day factor. Centrum and Östra’s had significant correlation between water use outdoor temperature during 2013 and 2014. Maximum day factor and maximum hour factor (day) and maximum hour factor (year) were suitable parameter to be used for future water usage calculations.

Full textThis paper explores the interpretation of the deposition of artefacts in Ireland from c. 2500 to c. 800 bc, combining a contextual analysis with post-processual ideas about materiality, artefacts, and their biographies. Hoards, single and burial finds are shown to be complementary strands of the depositional record and the result of deliberate deposition. It is argued that both the symbolic value of these items as well as economic and practical rationales determine the depositional mode. The paper attempts to infer social practices and rules that determined the differential treatment of materials and object types. The main structuring factor in the depositional record is the type-specific meanings of individual artefacts, which embody social identities beyond the utilitarian function of the object. The act of deposition facilitates and legitimates the literal and symbolic transformation of artefacts and the concepts they embody. The need for a separation between ritual and profane interpretation is removed, as deposition is understood as the reflection of prehistoric concepts rather than labelled according to modern notions of functionality. It is also argued that both dry and wet places are meaningful contexts and that different forms of wet landscapes were conceptualised differently.

In the past, researchers normally chose newly matured leaves, or leaves at the 3~5 sprouting orders from top of a branch, to measure the photosynthetic rate of a plant. However, this measuring method which based on past experiences did not provide quantitative data for references. The objectives of this research were to investigate the differences of maximum photosynthetic rate (Amax) in different leaf orders of a species during various seasons, and at which leaf order does the Amax occur. Seven species of various shade tolerance classes, including shade-intolerant species Broussonetia papyrifera and Premna serratifolia, moderate shade-tolerant species including Margaritaria indica, Michelia formosana and Heritiera littoralis, shade-tolerant species Gelonium aequoreum and Drypetes littoralis were selected for this study. Ten branches from 3~4 saplings within the range of 1.5~3.0 m in height of each species were tagged for their newly sprout leaves. Photosynthetic rates of each leaf during the four seasons were measured since August, 2013. With these obtained informations, we then knew the leaf order at the branch and leaf age when it reached Amax in various seasons, and thereby calculated leaf sprouting rates in different seasons. Our results showed that, during spring and summer seasons, leaves which had reached Amax were mostly at the 4th~6th leaf orders of morphologically matured leaves in B. papyrifera, Mar. indica, H. littoralis, and D. littoralis, while they were mostly at the 3rd leaf order in P. serratifolia, Mic. formosana, and G. aequoreum. During autumn and winter seasons, leaves which had reached Amax were mostly at the 2nd~4th leaf order in all species besides Mar. indica. We found that the leaf order at which a leaf reached Amax in various seasons was influenced by both the leaf age when physiologically mature and the leaf sprouting rate during that season. A species would have leaves reached Amax at an front position of a branch when a shorter time is needed for reaching Amax. During a faster sprouting season, leaf order of reaching Amax would be at a position relatively away from the branch tip. However, leaf sprouting rates were slower during winter season such that leaves of physiologically mature would be at an front position. In addition, we also found that leaf age of leaf reaching Amax were the shortest during spring or summer seasons. Five species showed the longest leaf age of leaf reaching Amax during winter season, while that of H. littoralis and D. littoralis were during the spring season. For leaf sprouting rates, B. papyrifera, P. serratifolia, and Mar. indica grew 5~9 new leaves per month during spring and summer seasons; Mic. formosana, and H. littoralis grew 3 new leaves; and G. aequoreum and D. littoralis grew 2~3 leaves. To summarize results from the above 7 species, we found that leaves of a same branch reached Amax mostly at 3~5 leaf orders. In addition, leaves reached the highest photosynthetic capacity were at the front 1/4 position and not at the middle position of a branch. Keywords:leaf age, leaf generating speed, leaf order, maximum photosynthetic rate, seasonal variation.

The retirement system of a public official is regarded as an important role in a whole civil service. However, with the passage of time, Taiwanese official retirement systems have been transformed many times within fifty years. The civil workers have been deeply affected by this revolution; one of the changes is a fireman who is adequate for the law of a public official retirement. Moreover, a fireman is specially permitted to retire earlier because of the nature of the work and person’s highly physical requirements. Thus, a fireman is particularly authorized the early retirement; it is expected to suit for special demands between the nature of the work and firemen’s retirement systems. This study explores the relationship between the limit of the firemen’s working age that they are on duty and the nature of the work in order to understand firemen’s attitudes toward the early retirement systems. In addition, the study analyzes reasonable limitation for firemen’s working age and compares that with the legal age of the firemen’s retirement system for the sake of confirming appropriate retired age and reasonable retirement system for a whole of firemen. The suggestions in this research are expected to apply for the retirement of a public official as well as to protect firemen’s rights and maintain capabilities. Research data are collected by focus group held seven times. The research respondents are firemen belonged to Tainan City Government Fire Bureau who care about the retirement systems and are willing to join a focus group as well as provide concrete suggestions. The study discusses what impacts constructs firemen’s retired factors and constructs their attitudes through relevant questions with academic views and practical scenarios in those focus groups. The conclusion of this study is investigated from three structures: individuals; environments; systems. The study results in three statements as follow: the first of that is the average of retired age for firemen is five-year-old lower than general civil service workers, compared to previous phenomena since 2012. Secondly, the result shows that the will of the retirement from field workers is relatively five year-old below office workers. Finally, the result indicates that the reasonable age for firemen’s retirement keeps the same as existing regulations. Furthermore, there are three suggestions for future improvement is “lack of human powers; unhealthy for work and off systems; excessive workloads”.

Full textLake-dwellings in the northern Alpine region are renowned for their extraordinary organic preservation. In addition to organic remains, thousands of ceramic sherds are also recovered. This paper addresses ceramic sherds from the Late Bronze Age site Zürich-Alpenquai, and assesses over 2000 sherds for indications of erosion and abrasion in addition to quantifying sherd size and plotting the spatial distribution of these factors. Recording such wear patterns can provide indications of deposition practices in addition to environmental conditions pre- and post-deposition. In this manner the study of ceramic remains from wetland sites for abrasion can complement environmental studies addressing conditions at the time of artefact deposition, and contribute to discussions of influences for lake-settlement abandonment.

Die daraus erzielten Inventardaten (Gletscherfläche, minimale und maximale Höhe) und einige andere Variablen (z.B. Hangneigung, Höhendifferenz) wurden automatisch mit einem geographischen Informationssystem berechnet. Die Länge der Gletscherfließlinie wurde basierend auf den Gletscherumrissen zum Maximum der „Kleinen Eiszeit“ und dem DTM manuell kartiert. Die Gletscherdaten zum Maximalstand der „Kleinen Eiszeit“ wurden mit dem Gletscherinventar von 2003 verglichen. Basierend auf den letscherinventaren zum Maximum der „Kleinen Eiszeit“, von den 1980er Jahren und von 2003 wurde eine einfache Parametrisierung nach HAEBERLI & HOELZLE (1995) durchgeführt, um ungemessene Gletschervariablen, wie z.B. Oberflächengeschwindigkeit oder mittlere Netto-Massenbilanz, abzuschätzen. Eingabedaten bestanden aus Gletscherfläche, minimaler und maximale Höhe und der Gletscherlänge. Die Resultate der Parametrisierung wurden mit den Ergebnissen früherer Parametrisierungen aus den Europäischen Alpen und den Southern Alps auf Neuseeland verglichen (HAEBERLI & HOELZLE 1995; HOELZLE et al. 2007). Eine Verbindung zwischen diesen Ergebnissen aus den Inventaren und der Parametrisierung und dem Klima und der Klimaänderung wurde hergestellt

The statistical method used was linear regression with independent motor variables: agility, balance, flexibility, strength of upper and lower limbs and the dependent variables: 6MWT and SWT. The analyzes were conducted according to gender, age and the total group. The results showed that the coefficients of determination R2 ranged between 0,47-0,60, indicating homogeneity of regression models, regardless of the group classification (overall, by gender or age). The results observed magnitudes of relationship (β) for agility ranged 37-70 and 12-40 for balance, being the main determinants capabilities in both tests. In conclusion, R2 values did not change much when analyzed according to gender or age, which allows us to state that both tests can be used to infer the functional fitness of elderly people, however the 6MWT is the best alternative because it is a submaximal test, reducing risk to their integrity.
