Abstract:
The Magic Mountain (Der Zauerberg) of Thomas Mann is one of the masterpieces of German literature in particular, of the 20th century world literature in general. In the novel, Thomas Mann created a symbolic space with the mountain in Davos and the nursing center of Davos for tuberculosis patients. The Davos Mountain influenced by sacred mountains in Grimm's fairy tales, is an experience and challenge space for the characters of the novel, especially for Hans Castorp. The nursing center of Davos for tuberculosis patients is a space to test people' patience before the hardships of life with the obsession of disease and death, pushing people to choose: stop walking, accept defeat or continue fighting for a meaningful life.

Abstract:
This article examines texts produced in response to the criminal trial of Joseph Mountain to illuminate the early construction of the black rapist in American print. The central text in its analysis is Mountain's own “criminal confession,” Sketches of the Life of Joseph Mountain (1790). This article views Mountain's text as a response to a different set of concerns than later narratives of African Americans convicted of rape and positions Mountain's biography as a response not merely to concerns over black slave revolt alone, but to a related, if more immediate threat of cross-racial, proletarian revolution.

Abstract:
The acquisition of spatial and mountain literacy by children in Tintin in Tibet is related to broader geospatial reasoning which has import later in life. The literature review for this paper covers the theories of spatial literacy and ability, as well as the developing field of mountain literacy. Methodologically, the comic book was analysed in terms of spatial literacy and then mountain literacy, chiefly in terms of altitudinal band differences, risk and danger, through page progression. Key findings were that this particular comic book is full of references to spatial and mountain literacy theories. Young readers who take careful note of the comic book could gain a head start in geography, in particular to what pertains to mountains (climate, vegetation, risk, danger) in Europe and Asia, both lowland and highland, but also in terms of diverse urban and regional forms.

Full text
Abstract:
Mistyka gór [Mountain Mysticism] is a book which has been reprinted several times, translated into several languages, and described as “legendary”, especially for those readers who are lovers of mountains. The author – R.E. Rogowski – is a priest, theologian, scholar and mountaineer. Mistyka gór is of a hybrid nature, lying on the border between literature and theology. This article proposes an interpretation of this book from a geopoetics perspective, as a meditative guide to Israel, an autobiography, and a mountain narrative. In each of these cases, the biblical motifs of mountains play a crucial role. Peaks mentioned in the Bible mark the pilgrimage trail, order the story of the author’s life, and stand as the mountaineer’s goals. They also form pretexts for a broader existential reflection. Rogowski writes about his mountain wanderings and moments of pause, which have both literal and metaphorical meanings. He primarily draws attention to these pauses. They signify not only a chance to rest, but also to pray and contemplate. It makes Rogowski’s book both unique and original.

Abstract:
Geographically, Nepal is divided into three regions, namely; the Terai, the hills, and the mountains. Nepal is prone to many types of disasters due to the various causes and one of the main causes is its geographic setting. Some disasters and hazards are prevalent to all over the country, some are area specific. Mountain and high altitude hazards are unique in nature and have distinct features and they pose several challenges for the rescue and relief operations. Disasters in mountain regions of Nepal have multi-dimensional effects on human life, property and the environment. The paper analyzes the mountain disasters, their nature and their impacts. It also focuses on the institutional as well as legal arrangements regarding disaster rescue. For this purpose, a qualitative descriptive and analytical method is applied to achieve the desired objectives of the study. This paper depends upon the secondary source of data available in several works of literature; journal articles, books, news articles, government reports, and websites. The paper finds that the frequencies of mountain disasters are low in comparison to other parts of Nepal, but they are diverse and complex. There are institutional and legal mechanisms for disaster risk reduction, but they are not adequate to respond mountain disasters effectively. All security agencies along with private sectors involving in mountain search and rescue operations do not have sufficient mountain-specific rescue units, training, and logistics.

Abstract:
Germination of seeds and survival of seedlings are important characteristics of the functioning of communities. There are few observations in the literature on the dynamics of seed germination in untouched alpine communities. Severe abiotic environmental factors characteristic of high mountains make it difficult for juvenile plants to take root, and they show high mortality in the first year of life. For 9 years (2011-2019), all juvenile plants were recorded on 5 m2 of the mountain-tundra community of the Khibiny Mountains and their further life was traced. For most plants of the alpine tundra community, low germination and high mortality of juvenile plants in the first year of life were confirmed. Seeds of some species of undisturbed plots, did not germinate during the observation period, most of the rest they did not survive. In species of slightly disturbed places, the number of seedlings was proportional to the number of species in the community, with the exception of species that do not have vegetative propagation. In the latter, seed germination was higher. A surge in the number of seedlings was observed in 2016 and 2019. The surviving individuals did not pass into the generative age state for 7-9 years of observations, which confirms the duration of the life cycle of alpine species.

Abstract:
The image-symbol of mountain, a key image-symbol in Skovoroda’s poetical and philosophical discourse never was an object of special attention, thus making the article relevant.It aims at an attempt to ascertain the semantic and emotional function of this image in H. Skovoroda’s spiritual space, conditioned by the correlation of the Christian written tradition with the signs of its author’s interpretation determined by the advancement towards God as an advancement towards yourself, urging to rise above ordinariness and to relinquish the world’s temptations.And at the same time, the symbol of spiritual summit matches the images of earthly mountains, with spatiality of feelings enabling the emphasis on the commensurability of the visible and the invisible, of the immanent and the transcendental.This correlation makes Skovoroda’s spiritual journey both intensely dramatic and lyrical, earthly and heavenly, and the sign of Christ’s visible Crucifixion coexists with His invisible Resurrection.The image of mountain holds an important position in Skovoroda’s world.Even the affinity or the identity the images of mountain and rock have reveals this characteristic to be the foundation and the summit at the same time, the aim and the way to that aim, to watch the earth and the heaven, the man’s and the God’s.H. Skovoroda perceives the heavenly mountain as the Wisdom of God, the place of revelation, meeting with God, announcement of His will, and the earthly mountain as the visible trace of God.The image of mountain connects the visible to the invisible, becomes an equivalent of the measure of human life. One author’s text opens another one, and all of them together path the way to the Holy Scripture because they grow from it.Along these lines, Skovoroda continues the tradition which united different authors preceding him and touched the summits of Ukrainian literature. Along these lines, Skovoroda continues the tradition which united different authors preceding him and touched the summits of Ukrainian literature. We make a conclusion that talking about mountains in Skovoroda’s sense brings about a certain reverse perspective projected on the general experience of man and the experience of reading in particular.

Abstract:
Climate change is emerged as an issue of great concern for the nations around the world. It affects virtually all physical, biological and human systems on this planet. However, the impacts are particularly severe for highly climate sensitive environments like Himalayas. The impacts of climate change are well observed in the Himalayas in the form of increasing temperature, melting glaciers, formation of glacial lakes, glacial lakes outburst floods (GLOFs) event and changing biodiversity and the ecosystems. Often referred as the ‘Third Pole’ or the ‘Water Tower of Asia’, Himalayas host largest concentration of glaciers outside the polar region which feed 10 of giant Asian rivers. Himalayas provide lifeline for half a billion people in the mountains and more than 1.3 billion people in the river basins who depend directly or indirectly on mountain resources for food, water, hydroelectricity, timber, biodiversity, and niche products. Climate change is a critical issue in the Himalayas not only because it adversely affects ecosystem of the region but also because it could have serious repercussions for mountain people. Due to fragile ecology and inaccessibility and poor economic development, people in the mountains have limited livelihood options. They depend heavily on agriculture, livestock rearing, forest products and tourism which are highly sensitive to climate change. Thus, any adverse impact on mountain resources will eventually have adverse effects on the life and livelihoods of mountain people. Although data about human well being in the Himalayas is scant, the climate change effects are likely to be experienced by them, among other things, on their livelihoods, health, and natural resource security. Thus, in this paper an attempt has been made to review the available literature on the climate change trends in the Himalayas and their subsequent impacts on mountain people.

Abstract:
Pedagogical materials in teaching regional literature are needed in Philippine classrooms. However, the number of studies on regional literature that students and teachers can make use of is very limited. To cater to such academic demand, this study selected four folk songs of Southern Leyte, Philippines to determine the rural life imagery that they portray.
 The formalism approach in literary analysis was used in this study. The chosen folk songs were “AwitsaBukid” (Song of the Mountain), “Barutu” (Boat), “Alibangbang” (Butterfly), and “May BalayGamaysaBungtud” (There Was a Hut on the Hill). The textual translation of the lyrics of the folk songs followed the Phonology-Orthography Correspondence: Sound-Letter System on pedagogic grammar for Cebuano Visayan. Coding and triangulation were applied to the data.
 The findings revealed that the selected folk songs of Southern Leyte had the following rural life imagery representations: “AwitsaBukid” (Song of the Mountain) - farmers working to attain a good harvest, “Barutu” (Boat) - a coffin made out of a sawed-off boat and funeral activities, “Alibangbang” (Butterfly) - a man courting and exploiting a woman then leaving her for another woman, “May BalayGamaysaBungtud” (There Was a Hut on the Hill) - a socialite mother living in a shanty on a hill.
 The literary analysis showed that the selected folk songs of Southern Leyte have representations of rural life imagery.

Graves, Jesse, and William Wright. "Specter Mountain: Poems." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2018. https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/176.

Full text
Abstract:
SPECTER MOUNTAIN is a book-length poetry collaboration between Jesse Graves and William Wright that imagines the spiritual and ecological life of an embattled landscape. The collection fuses two striking poetic visions into a cohesive and innovative new perspective on nature and the inevitable imprint of human interaction with wilderness. Readers will gain a sense of the permanent beauty of rivers and mountains, timeless images of the sublime, and the grandeur that reaches beyond human life and influence. SPECTER MOUNTAIN is a book of voices, delivered by an impressive range of speakers, including even the mountain itself. Sometimes they speak in chorus and sometimes in isolation, out of the past and from the future, offering meditations and reflections on our changing world. These poems reveal a sensitivity to the passing of time, and to the many losses that people and places suffer and outlast together. If the mountain is a haunted landscape, it is also a place of aspiration, where traditions flourish and customs give meaning to the lives that pass there. In his preface to the book, celebrated poet and novelist Robert Morgan says, "Jesse Graves and William Wright are two of the most exciting talents in contemporary poetry. Before they have spoken in distinct and memorable individual voices. In SPECTER MOUNTAIN they have pooled their considerable gifts and found a synergy that yields a unique work that will serve as a landmark for our time, and for many years to come."<br>https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/1196/thumbnail.jpg

Thomas, Heather M. "Competitive Interactions Between a Native and Exotic Trout Species in High Mountain Streams." DigitalCommons@USU, 1996. https://digitalcommons.usu.edu/etd/5264.

Full text
Abstract:
Populations of the introduced book trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, have recently become more widespread and abundant in western North American streams, possible at the expense of native Colorado River cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarki pleuriticus. We examined the intensity and potential mechanism of competition between these species. Feeding experiments in laboratory stream channels showed that cutthroat trout feeding efficiency decreases in the presence of a brook trout. Decreased feeding efficiency appeared to be due to interference, as cutthroat trout were inactive in the presence of the brook trout. Evidence for interference competition in the feeding experiments was also given by the fact that brook trout feeding efficiency was lower than the feeding efficiency of cutthroat trout. The decreased feeding efficiency of cutthroat trout in the presence of brook trout was due to decreased attack rates by cutthroat trout, and was not due to attacks and consumption of the food items by the brook trout. A field enclosure experiment, in which riffle-pool sections of a stream were isolated by fencing, was performed to determine if the presence of brook trout had a negative effect on the growth, fat content, and diet of cutthroat trout. Cutthroat trout fat levels were significantly lower in the presence of brook trout. The growth of cutthroat trout was not significantly different in the presence and absence of brook trout, but there was a trend fro lower growth of cutthroat trout in the presence of brook trout. Diet choices and total biomass of prey consumed by cutthroat trout in the field experiment and in a survey of three streams were not affected by the presence of brook trout. The observed decreased feeding efficiency of cutthroat trout in the presence of brook trout may be the mechanism responsible for the significant;y decreased fat levels during the relatively short, summer growing season and may result in reduced population sizes due to high overwinter mortality and delayed sexual maturity.

Abstract:
AbstractOne year after the Hillary/Tenzing ascent of Everest, W. H. Auden’s ‘Mountains’ (1954) describes climbers as ‘those unsmiling parties, / Clumping off at dawn in the gear of their mystery / For points up’. By this time, such gear was likely to include an oxygen rig. Attitudes to support of the human breath ‘on the hill’ in the early twentieth century were fractured and controversial. Oxygen-less attempts were associated with fairness and a sense of the sporting, as pushing the body to un-assisted limits on the highest peaks became entangled with notions of masculinity, in a post-Great War era when younger generations sought challenges that their elders had found through conflict. Auden’s gear might be one of ‘mystery’, but it also brought a jarring modernity into atavistic struggles between body and rock. Mountain literature pre-1953 registers the imperfect incorporation of oxygen supply ‘gear’ in a poetic context, and a breathed line, where it has not been present. The deployment of oxygen brought issues now associated with modernist culture onto the mountainside, while debates raged about who got to breathe the air of the Himalayas, and who—having deployed air-in-a-bottle—might not be said to have climbed them at all.

Full text
Abstract:
ABSTRACT: It is well known that rock porosity reduces rock Young’s modulus of intact rock specimens. However, it is not well understood how different types and amount of macroporosity in forms of non-connected or isolated cavities (e.g., vesicular basalt, lithophysal tuff) or interconnected vugs (e.g., vuggy limestone) affect rock elastic properties. Such macroporosity leads to challenges in deriving engineering properties of rock. This paper compiles an existing database for porosity and Young’s modulus of macroporous rocks. The database includes Young’s modulus determined from unconfined compression testing on intact rock specimens and analogue specimens used to prepare rock-like test samples and numerical simulations of compression testing on similar materials. The database is used to develop the relationship between porosity and Young’s modulus. In addition to the porosity, the macropore shapes, sizes, locations, and proximity of a macropore to its neighboring macropore play a role in how porosity affects intact rock Young’s modulus. 1. INTRODUCTION Macroporosity, which is the porosity due to visible large voids or cavities, impacts mechanical properties, such as strength and Young’s modulus (E). Examples of such rocks are primarily volcanic (e.g., vesicular basalt, lithophysal tuff, lithophysal rhyolite, pumice, and scoria) and sometimes sedimentary (e.g., vuggy limestone and coquina). Engineering characterization of such rock is challenging due to macroporosity variation within the rock mass, distribution (void-to-void proximity, void alignment), and shape of the macropores (Jespersen et al., 2010; Davis et al., 2017). Preparing test specimens of standard sizes from rock cores or outcrop blocks can be difficult due to macroporosity. Obtaining a representative specimen is also challenging as the size of the macropores becomes too large to prevent large macropores from being sampled. For example, the lithophysal tuffs of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, had macropores ranging in size from approximately 1 to 50 cm, with a maximum size up to 1 m (CRWMS M&amp;O 2000). When laboratory compression tests are carried out on these limited number of specimens, the distribution of data is typically scattered.

Everything is changing around us: circumstances, global environment, people. From the top of the mountain to the bottom of the sea, everything seems to be working right now with the aid of computers. Moreover, everything seems to be happening in a virtual world that can only be described and understood through acronyms and terms whose meaning is hard to grasp by the less ,,IT-literate" people. In the education sphere, starting from the early pre-school education up to higher education, PhD and post-graduate studies, as well as life-long learning, the advancing technological trend seems to have completely changed the ,,face" of the teaching process as compared to what we experienced as pupils and students (and by ,,we", we mean women in their forties' or fifties' working as language teachers in a predominantly adult male environment). The roles of the teacher seem to have evolved from the traditional models so as to cater for the students' newly reconfigured needs. On-line language learning seems to have shifted the balance creating, or at least suggesting, a different inventory of ,,hats" that the teacher has to put on in order to acquire and use the necessary' skills in the virtual classroom. Quite a lot of research has been conducted in recent years with respect to the changing role of the language teacher, even leading up to the question whether we need language teachers (and especially English teachers) at all, now that there is a practically inexhaustible reservoir of lessons, activities, projects and tests on the internet. On the other hand, research has also shown that in the traditional classroom gender seems to still play a part even if we have gone well over the threshold of the 21st century. People seem to still have at some level a notion of what a good teacher is like and, in many cases, reference seems to be made to gender issues too. Thus, the present paper is meant to cover significant aspects of the language teacher's role in face-to-face courses and the way in which this role changes in on-line courses, as seen from a gender studies perspective.

Abstract:
High montane forests are defined as forests between high montane (oreal) and subalpine ranges, which are under pressure against extreme climatic conditions and anthropogenic influences and have difficulty in regenerating themselves under these conditions. High montane forests, which are constantly struggling with poor growing environment conditions, have difficulty in regenerating themselves and cannot respond to the forestry activities implemented. However, due to unfavorable terrain and climatic conditions, carbon accumulation in both subsoil and above-ground vegetation in high mountainous areas remains in very low amounts. Therefore, silvicultural interventions that can be applied by increasing the carbon stock capacity of high mountain forests and revitalizing the ecological role of high mountain forests should be done in accordance with their nature. In order to increase the amount or potential of carbon storage, conservation and sustainable use of forest ecosystems are important for combating climate change and global carbon balance. Therefore, special planting practices should be implemented in high mountain forest areas to accelerate carbon storage. As a result, the potential production, biomass increase and carbon sequestration capacity of high mountain forest areas can be better utilized. Within the scope of this study, the effects of silvicultural interventions on carbon in high mountain forests in Türkiye will be evaluated.

Abstract:
A review of the literature on the current problem of medicine is presented. Arterial hypertension is one of the common chronic diseases for which the current goal of therapy is not recovery, but improvement of circulatory function with a satisfactory quality of life. The study of QOL and the factors influencing it can contribute to an increase in the individual effectiveness of treatment and complex rehabilitation of patients suffering from this pathology.

Abstract:
The aim of the Kitchen Life 2 project is to identify the key behaviours relating to food safety that occur in domestic and business kitchens, as well as the factors that may reduce the likelihood to enact recommended food safety and hygiene behaviours. The outcomes will inform risk assessment and development of hypotheses for behavioural interventions. The goal of this literature review was to ensure that the research design and fieldwork techniques identify existing key behaviours, actors, triggers and barriers in domestic and business kitchens to develop successful behavioural interventions and risk assessment models. Additionally, we have included the impacts of Covid-19 pandemic and national lockdowns on food safety practices in domestic and business kitchens. This addition is important because FSA policy response to the pandemic should address the needs of both consumers and food businesses due to reduced ability to deliver inspection and enforcement activities, business diversification (for example, shifting to online delivery and takeaway), increasing food insecurity, and change in food consumption behaviours (for example, cooking from scratch) (FSA, 2020).

Abstract:
It is widely accepted that schools and other settings catering to youth can play an essential role in offering education in life skills and character. However, there exists a broad array of potential targets for such programs, suggesting the need for guidance on which targets are most likely to result in demonstrable and valuable results. This report attempts to integrate a broad literature addressing the universe of targets for skills development programs for youth. After identifying a set of 30 candidate skills to investigate further, research literature was reviewed to evaluate each skill on three dimensions. Measurability had to do with the extent to which adequate measurement tools were available for evaluating skill level, with emphasis on those tools specifically used for younger populations and available in multiple languages, particularly in Spanish. Malleability had to do with the extent to which there is evidence that interventions have the potential to modify skill level, with emphasis on those that have been extensively evaluated through randomized controlled trials. Finally, meaningfulness had to do with the extent to which evidence exists demonstrating that the higher levels of skill can result in consequential outcomes. Based on these criteria, 10 skills were selected for further review as having the most compelling evidence to date that they are life skills that matter: Mindfulness, Empathy and compassion, Self-efficacy/ Self-determination, Problem solving, Critical thinking, Goal orientation and goal completion, Resilience/Stress resistance, Self-awareness, Purposefulness, and Self-regulation/Self-control/Emotion regulation. The evidence for each is summarized. We finish with a review of key issues to consider in the design, implementation, and evaluation of life skills that matter.
