Abstract:
Aim. The study addresses antihypertensive and cerebroprotective effects of long acting metoprolol (Egiloc retard, Egis, Hungary). Materials and methods. 47 objects with I-II stages of hypertension without serious concomitant diseases (25 males and 22 females, average age 51,7 ± 10,6 years) were included. Long acting metoprolol was administered (Egiloc retard, Egis, Hungary) in a dose of 25-100 mg given 1-2 times per day. 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), magnetic resonance tomography and dynamic contrast-enhanced perfusion computer scan of the brain with brain blood flow estimation were performed in all patients initially and after 6-month-therapy. Results. Egiloc retard showed a significant antihypertensive effect according to office and ABPM blood pressure. Egiloc retard normalizes 24-hour blood pressure profile in over-dippers and night-peakers. Subjective amelioration and improvement of functional and structural changes were found in hypertensive patients after 6-month therapy by Egiloc retard. Good tolerance and no significant abnormal changes of glucose and lipid metabolism were observed in patients taking Egiloc retard. It is also shown that Egiloc retard has the cerebroprotective effects.

Abstract:
The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between antihypertensive effect of nifedipine-retard and atenolol long-term therapy and changes of target organ damage (heart, carotid arteries, endothelial function) in patients with essential hypertension (HT) 2 stage. 45 patients with AH were included in the open prospective randomized study: 24 received nifedipine-retard 40 mg per day, 21 received atenolol 50 - 100 mg per day. There were no clinical and haemodynamic discrepanses between the groups at basline. Ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM), echocardiography (EchoCG), assess of endothelium-dependent and endothelium-independent vasodilatation were performed at basal state (after 14 days wash-out period) and after 6-month therapy. Both nifedipine-retard and atenolol had comparable and apparent hypotensive effect. The regression of left ventricular hypertrophy and the improvement of left ventricle diastolic function became evident during nifedipine-retard therapy in contrast to atenolol treatment. Long-term nifedipine-retard therapy is accompanied by an increase of volume flow velocity in arteria radialis and leads to correction of endothelium dysfunction in patients with HT.

Abstract:
Aim. To study the dynamics of office blood pressure (BP) levels, autonomic balance, endothelial dysfunction, and vascular remodelling in adolescents with Stage I arterial hypertension (AH), treated with indapamide retard (IR). Material and methods. In total, the study included 41 adolescent boys, aged 16-18 years, with Stage I AH (main group, MG), and 27 healthy adolescents (control group, CG). The MG participants received, IR (1,5 mg/day) for 6 months. At baseline and in the end of the study, all participants underwent office BP measurement, echocardiography, veloergometry, and the assessment of heart rate variability (HRV), endothelial dysfunction (reactive hyperemia test, endotelin-1 levels), microalbuminuria (MAU), and vascular parameters, such as large artery rigidity and intima-media thickness. Results. Target BP levels were achieved in all MG patients by Week 4 of the treatment, with normal BP values registered throughout the follow-up period. Indapamide therapy was associated with decreased hemodynamic cardiovascular load, normalized endothelial function, and MAU disappearance. IR monotherapy had beneficial effects on HRV, due to moderate parasympathetic stimulation. Conclusion. IR is an effective and safe medication for long-term treatment of adolescents with Stage I AH.

Abstract:
Several NADH model compounds, N-alkyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamides, some of them possessing amphiphilic properties, have been synthesized, and the kinetics of their reaction with a biologically active liphophilic quinone, avarone, has been studied in a protic solvent both in the presence and absence of cationic, anionic or non-ionic surfactants. In the absence of micellar agents, the medium- and long-chain N-dodecyl (3) and N-heptadecyl (4) derivatives show a significant increase in the reaction rates compared to other model compounds, due to the stabilization of the semiquinone intermediate. Anionic surfactants retard the reaction, non-ionic surfactants slightly accelerate the reaction with the short-chain derivatives, and retard the reaction with the medium- and long-chain derivatives, and the cationic surfactants increase the reaction rate with all derivatives except the long-chain 4. The results support the e-p-e mechanism of the reduction of lipophilic quinones byNADHmodels in protic medium.

Abstract:
Le retard de croissance intra-utérin (RCIU) augmente la probabilité de contracter plusieurs maladies métaboliques à l’âge adulte qui peuvent aboutir au syndrome métabolique. Outre les nombreuses études réalisées concernant l’implication de facteurs alimentaires dans l’apparition du syndrome RCIU, celle du tractus gastro-intestinal(GIT) a été peu étudiée et son rôle reste inconnu. L’objectif de ce travail de thèse est d’étudier le développement du GIT (en particulier celui de l’intestin grêle et du pancréas) chez le porc (cet espèce pouvant servir de modèle animal pour l’humain du stade fœtal jusqu’à l’âge de 190j. (stade adulte) chez des animaux normaux ou présentant les caractéristiques du RCIU. Dans ce contexte, cinq expériences furent menées et le développement du GIT fut examiné chez les descendants dont les mères gestantes avaient reçu des aliments dont la teneur en protéines était modifiée (haut et bas niveaux d’une part, et chez des porcelets RCIU nourris avec des formules lactées contenant des niveaux élevés vs n normaux de protéines pendant la période d’allaitement d’autre part. Ces effets ont été étudiés chez le porcelet à court terme (période néonatale et juste avant sevrage) et à long terme (âge de 190j). Enfin l’injection intramusculaire de leptine pour annuler les effets anormaux observés chez le RCIU, fut testée. Les résultats obtenus montrent que l’ingestion de régimes déséquilibrés ingérés par la mère gestante est responsable à l’apparition d’une proportion largement plus importante de descendants RCIU à la naissance. La maturation de l’intestin grêle et du pancréas des animaux RCIU est significativement retardée par un décalage dans la disparition des entérocytes fœtaux, une réduction de la mitose intestinale et un changement dans les activités enzymatiques digestives. Contrairement à ce qui se passe chez les animaux normaux, ceux qui présentent les symptômes RCIU perdent des capacités d’adaptation du développement de leur GIT. Les animaux reçus provenant de mères gestantes ayant ingéré les aliments déséquilibrés ne semblent pas pouvoir déployer une croissance de rattrapage suffisante. Les concentrations plasmatiques du CCK, et surtout celles de GLP-2, seraient impliquées dans le développement retardé du GIT chez le RCIU, les relations qu’il peut y avoir avec les changements au niveau métaboliques et les traitements éventuels possibles
Intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) constitutes huge problems in adult life due to increased incidence of several metabolic diseases resulting in symptoms which together fold up in metabolic syndrome. Despite important contribution of dietary factors studied in relation with IUGR apparition, the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) stay little implicated and its role is almost unknown. The aim of this PhD dissertation was to study the GIT development (in particular for small intestine and pancreas) in pig species (and also as model of humans) from fetus stage until 190d of age (adult) in normal and IUGR animals. In this context,five experiments were conducted and the GIT development was examined in offspring when their pregnant mothers were fed different dietary protein levels (high an low-unbalanced vs adequate diets) n one hand and in IUGR piglets fed milk formula based on high vs normal protein levels during suckling period in another hand. These effects were investigated in piglets at short term (neonate, before weaning) and at long term (190 d old). Finally, leptin i. M. Injection was examined to reverse the abnormal the effects of IUGR stage. Obtained results showed that maternal unbalanced protein diets ingested during pregnancy led to an important increase of the proportion of neonatal IUGR piglets. The small intestinal mucosa and pancreas tissue maturation in IUGR animals were significantly delayed in disappearance of fetal enterocytes, reduction of mitosis and apoptosis, villi shortening and changes in digestive enzyme activities. In contrast to non-IUGRs, IUGRs lost capability to adapt GIT functions after birth. IUGR piglets coming from mother fed unbalance diets did no manifest catch-up growth. Plasma CCK, and mainly GLP-2, could be implicated in the delay au development in IUGR offspring. More researches are necessary to investigate GIT development in IUGRs, the lingks with metabolic changes, and some possible IUGR treatments

Abstract:
Le retard mental est une pathologie qui affecte de 1 à 3% de la population. II se caractérise par un quotient intellectuel inférieur à 70 associé à des déficits comportementaux. De nombreux gènes connus pour leur implication dans ce désordre neurologique sont bien conservés chez la drosophile. La drosophile se présente comme un système modèle très attractif pour mieux comprendre les mécanismes moléculaires et cellulaires impliqués dans l'apprentissage et la mémoire. Malgré la simplicité de son système nerveux, elle est capable d'associer une odeur à un choc électrique et de stocker cette information à long terme. Les homologues de trois gènes impliqués dans le retard mental non syndromique chez l'Homme ont été étudiés chez la drosophile : tequila, DPak et dpix. Grâce à la technique du RNAi, l'expression des gènes d'intérêt a été diminuée au niveau des corps pédoncules, le centre de la mémoire olfactive. Les mouches ont présenté un défaut de mémoire à long terme et une mémoire à court terme normale. De plus, nous avons montré que tequila et DPak sont spécifiquement requis à l'état adulte pour une mise en place correcte de la mémoire à long terme. En revanche, la diminution d'expression de ces gènes n'a aucune conséquence sur la morphologie des corps pédonculés, suggérant un rôle essentiel dans les mécanismes de plasticité synaptique nécessaires à la mise en place de la mémoire. Le gène tequila montre une augmentation d'expression lors de la mise en place de la mémoire à long terme. Ce travail de thèse a permis de montrer que la drosophile peut servir de modèle pour une étude approfondie des mécanismes impliqués dans le retard mental non syndromique
Mental retardation affects 1 to 3% of the population of the industrialized contries. People affected by this pathology have a intellectual quotient less than 70. A lot of genes are known to be implicated in this neurological disorder, they are well conserved in Drosophila genome. Drosophila seems to be a very attractive animal system to better understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying learning and memory. Despite his relatively simple nervous system, drosophila is able to make the association between an odour and a electric shock and to retrieve this information later. Three genes implicated in non syndromic mental retardation were studied in drosophila : tequila, DPak and dpix. With RNAi, these three genes were silenced in the mushroom bodies, the olfactory memory center. Flies have a soecific long term memory defect and a normal short term memory. Tequila and DPak are required specifically in the long term memory establishment. The silencing of these genes does not affect the morphology of the mushroom bodies suggesting a essential role in pathways underlying neuronal plasticity who is required for long term memory. Teq expression is upregulated during the establishment of long term memory. This work has shown that drosophila could be a useful organism to better understand the non syndromic mental retardation

Abstract:
Le retard est un phénomène largement présent dans les systèmes de commande(i.e.retard physique, latence de communication, temps de calcul) et peut en dégrader les performances ou même les déstabiliser. Si le retard est faible, la stabilité en boucle fermée peut être garantie par des lois de commande conventionnelles mais ces techniques ne sont plus efficaces si le retard est long. Cette thèse est dédiée à la commande des systèmes à retard avec retards longs inconnus ou avec des retards incertains. Pour compenser les retards longs, la commande prédictive est adoptée et des techniques d’estimation de retard sont développées. Selon les différents types de systèmes et de retards, trois objectifs sont visés dans la thèse. Le premier objectif considère la commande des systèmes linéaires avec retards constants inconnus pour lesquels un nouvel estimateur de retard est proposé pour estimer les retards inconnus. Le retard estimé est ensuite utilisé dans la commande prédictive pour stabiliser le système. Le deuxième objectif se concentre sur la stabilisation pratique des systèmes commandés à distance avec des retards inconnus variants. Dans ce cas, les retards sont estimés de manière pratique : une boucle de communication spécifique est utilisée pour estimer le retard en temps fini puis le système est stabilisé par une commande prédictive. Les tests expérimentaux réalisés sur un réseau WiFi ont montré que l’algorithme permet d’estimer de manière robuste les retards variants. Le dernier objectif est consacré à la commande des systèmes commandés en réseau avec retards variants. La commande prédictive discrète est utilisée pour compenser les retards longs et variants et les ré-ordonnancements de paquets dans le canal capteur-contrôleur sont également considérés. De plus, cette méthode est validée par l’asservissement visuel d’un pendule inverse commandé en réseau. Les performances obtenues sont meilleures que les méthodes de commande non-prédictives classiques
Time-delay is a widely-found phenomenon (i.e. physical dead time, communication latency, computation time) in real control systems, which can degrade the performances of the system or destabilize the system. If the time-delay is small, then the closed-loop stability can be guaranteed with conventional control techniques; but these techniques are no longer effective if the time-delay is long. This thesis is dedicated to the control of time-delaysystemswithunknown or uncertain long time-delays. In order to compensate long time-delays, the predictor-based control technique is adopted, and the delay estimation techniques are developed to assist the predictor-based controller. According to the different types of the systems and the time-delays, three objectives are analyzed in the thesis. The first objective considers the control of LTI systems with unknown constant delays, a new type of delay estimator is proposed to estimate the unknown time-delays, then it is plugged into apredictor-based controller to stabilize the system. The second objective focuses on the practical stabilization of remote control systems with unknown time-varying delays, at this time, the time-delays are estimated by a practical way: a specific communication loop is used to estimate the round-trip delay in finite time, and the system is stabilized with a predictor-based controller. This practical delay estimation algorithm is implemented on a real WiFi network, it can estimate the time-varying delays with good performances and robustness. The last objective is devoted to the control of networked control systems with time-varying delays, the discrete predictor-based control techniques are used to compensate long time-varyingdelays,and the packet reordering in the sensor-to-controller channel is also considered. Moreover, this control solution is validated on a networked visual servo inverted pendulum system, and the control performances are fairly better than the non-predictive control methods

Abstract:
La Trisomie 21 ou Syndrome de Down, est due à la présence surnuméraire du chromosome 21 humain (Hsa21), le surdosage génétique qui en résulte provoque différents phénotypes. Cette pathologie est la première cause de retard mental. Notre étude vise à savoir si l’aneuploïdie d’un intervalle génétique, encore non étudié, entraîne des modifications dans la mise en place des processus à l’origine des facultés cognitives. Cet intervalle, entre les gènes Cstb et Prmt2 est porté par le chromosome murin 10 (MMU10) au sein d’une portion homologue à la partie télomérique du Hsa21. Pour cela de nouveaux modèles murins ont été créés, Ms4Yah est monosomique et Ts3Yah est trisomique pour cet intervalle. Le but est donc de caractériser les conséquences de l’aneuploïdie sur le fonctionnement des neurones permettant l’encodage des informations, appelé plasticité synaptique à long terme. Nous avons enregistré ce phénomène au niveau de la communication entre le cortex et le striatum, structures impliquées dans les processus mnémoniques, grâce à la technique électrophysiologique de patch clamp en configuration cellule entière. Ces enregistrements sont faits in vitro sur tranches de cerveaux de souris. Les propriétés électrophysiologiques des NETMs ont été caractérisées. La plasticité synaptique corticostriatale à long terme de type glutamatergique a été étudiée avec des protocoles de stimulation spécifiques, appliqués au niveau cortical. Des protocoles de conditionnement à haute et à basse fréquence ont été utilisés. Nous avons observé que l’aneuploïdie portée par les modèles avait une influence sur la mise en place de la plasticité synaptique corticostriatale à long terme qui est différente en fonction du dosage génétique. Ms4Yah met en place une DLT suite au protocole SHF de même que Ts3Yah. Lorsque le protocole SBF est utilisé Ms4Yah met en place une forme de plasticité à court terme contrairement à Ts3Yah qui présente une DLT. L’intervalle étudié ici jouerait donc un rôle dans le phénotype de la Trisomie 21. Certains gènes de l’intervalle semblent être de bons candidats pour expliquer les phénomènes observés, notamment S100b, Pcbp3 et Trmp2
Trisomy 21 or Down syndrome is due to a third copy of human chromosome 21 (Hsa21) in the genome, this leads to a global genetic overexpression which results on multiple behavioral phenotypes. This pathology is the first and most common cause of mental retardation. Our study aims to understand whether an aneuploidy of a non-studied genetic interval, included in Hsa21, causes changes in processes mediating intellectual abilities. This interval, between Ctsb and Prmt2, is located on murine chromosome 10 (MMU10) within an homologous portion of the Hsa21 telomeric part. Thus, new mouse models have been engineered, Ms4Yah is monosomic and Ts3Yah trisomic for Cstb-Prmt2 interval. Hence, the aim of this project is to characterized aneuploidy consequences on neuronal functions which lead to information encoding, named long term synaptic plasticity. We have recorded this phenomenon within cortex-striatum neuronal connexion, which is involved in mnemonic processes, using whole-cell patch-clamp electrophysiological technique. Records were made in vitro on mouse horizontal brain slice. We characterized METMs electrophysiological properties. Then, glutamatergic corticostriatal long term synaptic plasticity was studied with specific stimulation protocols applied on the cortex. High and low frequency conditioning protocols were used. We observed that aneuploidy of the models influenced corticostriatal long term synaptic plasticity setting which is different according to the genetic dosage. Ms4Yah showed LTD after HFS protocol like Ts3Yah. But when SBF was applied, Ms4Yah shows a short term plasticity form, conversely Ts3Yah shows anew a LTD. The studied interval may play here a role in phenotype of Trisomy 21. Some of the genes comprised in the Ctsb-Prmt2 interval seemed to be good candidates to explain observed phenotypes, namely S100b, Pcbp3 and Trmp2

Abstract:
This study examines the performance of long-short equity trading strategies from January 1990 to December 2010. This study combines two financial screens that will yield candidates for both long and short positions for each month during the aforementioned time period. Two long-short strategies are tested: (1) perfectly-hedged, or equal allocation to long and short positions, and (2) net-long. The results of this thesis reveal that if a long-short equity manager is able to successfully determine what companies are overvalued and undervalued and actively rebalance their portfolio, perfectly-hedged and net-long strategies can generate superior risk-adjusted alpha.

Abstract:
The long time challenge for diesel engine manufacturers has been to reduce both particulate matter (PM) and NOx emissions simultaneously without sacrificing engine performance. One technique for reducing PM has been to inject air or oxygen-enriched air directly into the combustion chamber. Previous studies using the KIVA-3V computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model have shown benefits and the importance of the gas injection’s characteristics on the technique’s effectiveness in reducing emissions. Using a Caterpillar 3401E single cylinder engine, an experimental investigation has been conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of an oxygen-enriched air injection system and fuel injection timing retard in reducing the NOx and the PM emissions in terms of both the particulate size and concentration. The gaseous emissions were measured using a Pierburg AMA 2000 gaseous emissions bench which included a chemiluminescent analyzer for NOx volumetric measurements, non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) analyzer for CO and CO2 measurements, and a parametric fuel cell for O2 measurements. PM emissions (i.e., soot particle concentration and size distribution) were measured using a TSI Model 3936 Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS). The experimental observations regarding the effects of oxygen-enriched air injection on NOx and PM emissions were in accord with the previously reported results for late-cycle gas injection from a KIVA-3V model. The air injection technique additionally provided a low level of oxygen-enrichment during the compression cycle, with results similar to previous intake air oxygen-enrichment studies. A simultaneous reduction of NOx and particulates was demonstrated when the fuel injection timing characteristics were optimized in conjunction with the oxygen-enriched air injection. The experimental PM emissions were analyzed for number and size distributions and also found to be consistent with previously reported trends.

Abstract:
Current hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) separation methods utilize immunomagnetic techniques where antibodies are conjugated to paramagnetic or iron-dextran particles so that the cells can be precipitated using a magnetic field. Antibodies are usually targeted against CD34 antigen, a known HSC marker that is lost as the cell matures into a terminally differentiated blood cell. While this method is able to produce stem cell purities greater than 80% in most cases, cell yield is usually low (<50%) and there is evidence to suggest that not all HSCs express CD34 and hence, cannot be selected using these methods. Our long-term aim is to move away from immunologic isolation methods and instead focus on general HSC behavior in the presence of specific proteins. Selectins are a group of adhesion molecules that have been shown to selectively retard HSC rolling in comparison to more mature blood cells so that, under the right conditions, HSC isolation from whole blood should be possible. Since this functional method is independent of specific HSC surface marker, it would enable isolation of all HSC sub-populations as well as improve the overall yield. We have used two geometries for HSC isolation using selectins. The first assembly was a commercially available parallel plate flow chamber with rectangular cross-section. This proved to be inefficient for cell separation due to the emergence of dead zones within the chamber and excessive cell accumulation along the tubing and fittings that comprised the inlets and outlets. We have evaluated this chamber and two redesigns using finite elements software. Ultimately we decided on a simpler approach — to replace the flow chamber with a capillary tube, which reduced unwanted cell accumulation due to gravity or dead zones while increasing the effective area for separation, and hence allowing for better HSC isolation.

Full text
Abstract:
Increasing world demand for energy has resulted in plans to expand the oil and gas transmission pipeline infrastructure in many countries utilizing higher strength steels of API grade X70 and X80. Traditional transmission pipeline steels, up to grade X70, relied on a ferrite/pearlite microstructural design generated through traditional TMCP rolling of a niobium microalloyed C-Mn steel design. Increasing strengths up to X70 and X80 for transmission pipelines has resulted in a shift toward a ferrite/acicular ferrite microstructure designs. Traditionally, to generate the ferrite/acicular ferrite microstructure design for X70 or X80, TMCP rolling is applied to a C-Mn-Si-Mo-Nb alloy system. The Nb content is typically less than 0.070% in this alloy system. With the rising cost of alloys over the past three years, steel and pipe producers have been working with different alloy designs to reduce total costs to produce the ferrite/acicular ferrite microstructure. In recent developments it has been determined that an optimized low-C-Mn-Si-Cr-Nb alloy design (usually referred as NbCr steel), utilizing an Nb content between 0.080 – 0.11% can produce the same ferrite/acicular ferrite microstructure with either no, or minimal, use of molybdenum. This approach has been successfully used in several transmission pipeline projects such as the Cantarell, Cheyenne Plains and Rockies Express. Recognizing the success of previous projects around the world, the large ∼ 4500 Km 2nd West-East Pipeline Project specification in China has been modified to allow for the use of this NbCr design for both plate and coil for conversion to long seam or spiral pipe. The NbCr design allows the steel producer to utilize niobium’s unique ability to retard recrystallization at higher than normal TMCP rolling temperatures, hence the term for the alloy design High Temperature Processing (HTP), producing the desired ferrite/acicular ferrite microstructure with excellent strength, toughness and weldability. This paper will discuss the technical background, rolling strategy, mechanical properties, welding, specific projects, and specification modifications with practical examples.

Abstract:
The diesel engine is widely used for marine vessel propulsion due to its relatively high efficiency compared to existing alternative propulsion systems. The majority of these engines are slow speed two stroke ones. Despite the improvement of their efficiency there now exists a demand for drastic reduction of daily fuel oil consumption as a result of the global financial situation and continuously increasing fuel prices. Towards this effort, slow steaming is a promising solution for the drastic reduction of daily and specific fuel consumption when expressed in tn/mile. This requires engine operation in the low load (low speed) range where these engines are not designed to operate for long term. The main problem related to slow-steaming, is the lack of air which has a negative impact on the engine and its subsystems. A promising solution to the problem is turbocharger (T/C) cut-out at low load when more than one T/C exists. In the present work a combined computational and experimental investigation is conducted to evaluate the operation potential of a large two stroke marine diesel engine equipped with two T/Cs using T/C cut-out, for which the specific technology presents various challenges. This is achieved using an in-house engine simulation model and measurements with and without T/C cut-out. From the results it is revealed that using this technique the scavenging air and peak firing pressure increase while the specific fuel consumption decreases. In this way, some major problems related with the long term operation of the engine under low load conditions, i.e. accumulation of carbon deposits on the exhaust gas side and continuous operation of the auxiliary air blowers, are surpassed. Moreover, a theoretical investigation is conducted considering fuel injection retard to minimize the peak firing pressure penalty while taking care to limit the corresponding negative impact on specific fuel consumption. For NOx emissions the effect of T/C cut-out is also considered using tail pipe emission data measured during the official shop tests. From the analysis conducted it has been revealed that the technique of turbocharger cut–out (one of two) is technically feasible and could offer certain advantages when slow-steaming is implemented. Moreover, comparing the calculated with the measured results, it has been revealed that the simulation model successfully estimates engine operation with and without T/C cut-out, being a valuable tool for the engineers to investigate combustion and pollutant formation mechanisms under various engine configurations.

Abstract:
The study of very long-term ocean climate is of great interest in a number of different applications. In a climate change perspective, estimations of return values of wind and wave parameters to a future climate are of great importance for risk management and adaptation purposes. However, there are various ways of estimating the required return values, which introduce additional uncertainties in extreme weather and climate variables pertaining to both current and future climates. The different approaches that are considered in the present work include the annual maxima approach, the block maxima approach, and the MENU method which is based on the calculation of return periods of various level values from nonstationary time series data. Furthermore, the effect of different modelling choices within each of the approaches will be explored. Thus, a range of different return value estimates for the different data sets is obtained for a field of datapoints. Long-term datasets for an area in the North Atlantic Ocean are used in the present study, derived for project ExWaCli, comprising of 30 years in the present (historic period) and two sets of 30 years in the future (future projections). The comparison between the results of the various approaches reveals a variability of the return period estimates, and an assessment of this is given. Moreover, it seems that a slight shift towards higher extremes in a future wave climate might be possible based on the particular datasets that have been analysed.

Full text
Abstract:
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced 1.7 billion children out of school temporarily. While many education systems are attempting varying degrees of remote learning, it is widely accepted that the closures will produce substantial losses in learning (World Bank, 2020; Kuhfeld et al., 2020). However, the real concern is not just that a few months of learning will be lost in the short run, but that these losses will accumulate into large and permanent learning losses as many children fall behind during school closures and never catch up. This note uses a calibrated model with a “pedagogical production function” (Kaffenberger and Pritchett, 2020) to estimate the potential long-term losses to children’s learning from the temporary shock of school closures. The model shows that without mitigation, children could lose more than a year’s worth of learning even from a three-month school closure as the short-term losses continue to compound after children return to school. Turning to mitigation strategies, the note examines the long-term effects of two strategies, finding that with some mitigation efforts education systems could come back from the crisis stronger than before.

Abstract:
Advocates have long raised concerns about the potential for partner violence after a spouse’s or partner’s return from prison, but few programs or policies exist to prevent it. In an era in which experiences of incarceration and reentry—and by extension, experiences of a partner’s or coparent’s incarceration and reentry—are commonplace in low-income urban communities, the safety of families reuniting after a prison stay merits serious attention. The current study examines qualitative data from 167 reentering men and their partners to identify contextual influences on post-prison partner violence. Insights from the data offer a valuable starting point for future research and for considering how prevention could effectively target economic, physical, social, and cognitive conditions at multiple social-ecological levels.

Abstract:
Interest in the Somali fishing sector is growing. Development agencies, donors, and investors see the potential for fisheries in Somali waters to provide income, food security, and stability in coastal communities. But reliable and up-to-date information about the state of Somali fisheries is difficult to find, complicating business decisions. Where should development be focused? What kind of investment will provide the most benefit and long-term return for coastal communities? What fisheries sector opportunities are the most sustainable, and which might be a threat to the health of Somali fisheries? Somali Coastal Development Opportunities answers these questions through targeted and original analysis of fisheries data coupled with information on current development projects throughout the Somali region. This report highlights six coastal fishing villages – Bereda, Hordio, Bander Beyla, Maydh, Hawaay, and Merca – to investigate the development needs and opportunities in each. Opportunities in the fisheries sectors are analyzed in light of sustainability and feasibility to provide recommendations that will guide investment and development in the Somali fisheries sector.

Full text
Abstract:
The digitalisation of the economy has spotlighted fundamental flaws in international tax rules, which have been exacerbated since the 1970s with the wider shift to the services economy and the growth of international services. These systemic flaws have been more evident from the perspective of countries that are mainly importers of services that have tried to retain rights to tax profits at the source from which they derive. While they succeeded in retaining a wider scope for source taxation, key provisions have been subject to continuing conflicts and contestation over their formulation and interpretation, leaving a legacy of ambiguity and confusion. Digitalisation has now sparked a dramatic reversal of perspective by more developed countries and an acceptance of principles they have long resisted: that taxation of transnational corporations can be based on apportionment of an appropriate fraction of their global income and can be by countries from where they derive income, regardless of physical presence. This paper outlines the contested process that has shaped the formulation of key provisions on taxation of international services, discusses the recent moves to reshape these rules and evaluates some policy options for capital-importing countries to strengthen their taxing rights in the current context.

Full text
Abstract:
Our study’s main object is travel anthropology, the branch of science that studies the history and nature of man, socio-cultural space, social relations, and structures by gathering information during short and long journeys. The publication aims to research the theoretical foundations and genesis of travel anthropology, outline its fundamental principles, and highlight interaction with related sciences. The article’s defining objectives are the analysis of the synthesis of fundamental research approaches in travel anthropology and their implementation in journalism. When we analyze what methods are used by modern authors, also called «cultural observers», we can return to the localization strategy, namely the centering of the culture around a particular place, village, or another spatial object. It is about the participants-observers and how the workplace is limited in space and time and the broader concept of fieldwork. Some disciplinary practices are confused with today’s complex, interactive cultural conjunctures, leading us to think of a laboratory of controlled observations. Indeed, disciplinary approaches have changed since Malinowski’s time. Based on the experience of fieldwork of Svitlana Aleksievich, Katarzyna Kwiatkowska-Moskalewicz, or Malgorzata Reimer, we can conclude that in modern journalism, where the tools of travel anthropology are used, the practical methods of complexity, reflexivity, principles of openness, and semiotics are decisive. Their authors implement both for stable localization and for a prevailing transition.

Full text
Abstract:
The Annual Report on Migration and Asylum 2016 provides an overview of trends, policy developments and significant debates in the area of asylum and migration during 2016 in Ireland. Some important developments in 2016 included: The International Protection Act 2015 was commenced throughout 2016. The single application procedure under the Act came into operation from 31 December 2016. The International Protection Office (IPO) replaced the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner (ORAC) from 31 December 2016. The first instance appeals body, the International Protection Appeals Tribunal (IPAT), replacing the Refugee Appeals Tribunal (RAT), was established on 31 December 2016. An online appointments system for all registrations at the Registration Office in Dublin was introduced. An electronic Employment Permits Online System (EPOS) was introduced. The Irish Short Stay Visa Waiver Programme was extended for a further five years to October 2021. The Second National Action Plan to Prevent and Combat Human Trafficking was published. 2016 was the first full year of implementation of the Irish Refugee Protection Programme (IRPP). A total of 240 persons were relocated to Ireland from Greece under the relocation strand of the programme and 356 persons were resettled to Ireland. Following an Oireachtas motion, the Government agreed to allocate up to 200 places to unaccompanied minors who had been living in the former migrant camp in Calais and who expressed a wish to come to Ireland. This figure is included in the overall total under the IRPP. Ireland and Jordan were appointed as co-facilitators in February 2016 to conduct preparatory negotiations for the UN high level Summit for Refugees and Migrants. The New York Declaration, of September 2016, sets out plans to start negotiations for a global compact for safe, orderly and regular migration and a global compact for refugees to be adopted in 2018. Key figures for 2016: There were approximately 115,000 non-EEA nationals with permission to remain in Ireland in 2016 compared to 114,000 at the end of 2015. Net inward migration for non-EU nationals is estimated to be 15,700. The number of newly arriving immigrants increased year-on-year to 84,600 at April 2017 from 82,300 at end April 2016. Non-EU nationals represented 34.8 per cent of this total at end April 2017. A total of 104,572 visas, both long stay and short stay, were issued in 2016. Approximately 4,127 persons were refused entry to Ireland at the external borders. Of these, 396 were subsequently admitted to pursue a protection application. 428 persons were returned from Ireland as part of forced return measures, with 187 availing of voluntary return, of which 143 were assisted by the International Organization for Migration Assisted Voluntary Return Programme. There were 532 permissions of leave to remain granted under section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 during 2016. A total of 2,244 applications for refugee status were received in 2016, a drop of 32 per cent from 2015 (3,276). 641 subsidiary protection cases were processed and 431 new applications for subsidiary protection were submitted. 358 applications for family reunification in respect of recognised refugees were received. A total of 95 alleged trafficking victims were identified, compared with 78 in 2015.
