Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and a supertyphoon: A quantitative study in Cebu, Philippines by Ylade, M, Adhikari, B, Crisostomo, MV, Daag, JV, Cuachin, AM, Lopez, MH, Macasero, A, Agrupis, KA, Deen, J

“…The majority of respondents (1853/2360; 70.5%) had moderate to severe impacts on their living conditions, disrupted by interruption in electricity, water supplies, and house damage. The COVID-19 pandemic and supertyphoon Odette had multi-faceted effects with immediate and long-term implications and greater impacts among poorer households. …”

Off-farm employment and spatial distribution of paddy farmers in integrated agricultural development area in north-west Selangor determined using GIS by Lokman, Eleanor Daniella

“…They usually get involved in agriculture activities including oil palm plantation, fisheries, fruits plantation, working with the government and doing own job.Spatially, the results indicated that most of the paddy farmers involved in off-farm job lives near to the town which in Kuala Selangor, as is less than ten (10) kilometres away from their house and paddy lot. The study shows that doing off-farm employment during their free time is an alternative strategy and has a potential to improve the income and well being of the paddy farmers and their family. …”

Le cinéma d’Afrique noire contemporaine: une impossible décolonisation? by Fouhba, H

“…An Africa driven by "primitivity" in the 21st century, and in which witchcraft, early marriages, excision, under-schooling of young people, non-schooling of women, juvenile delinquency, absent civil documentation (marriage and birth certificates) , water-borne diseases and insalubrity… constitute the daily lot of the populations.…”

Performance analysis of familiar elevation-dependent stochastic models with error variance compensation and posteriori unit weight in GPS/BDS precise point positioning by Liu, Peng, Ling, Keck Voon, Qin, Honglei

“…While its mean convergence time reduces by 10.0% and its convergence stability increases by 29.1%, compared with the worst stochastic model. The stochastic model using exponential function is the most suitable under the error variance compensation and posteriori unit weight in static PPP with GPS and BDS, compared with the other familiar elevation dependent stochastic models.…”

Development of an integrated scheduling model for handling equipment in automated port container terminals by Sadeghian, Syed Hamidreza

“…In addition, results proved that the modified meta-heuristic algorithm is able to find near optimal solutions and on average, the solutions found by the GA algorithm are only 0.2% worse than the optimal solutions and in the worst case in the test cases this difference is 2.3% which is acceptable. …”

High performance composite membranes comprising Zn(pyrz)2(SiF6) nanocrystals for CO2/CH4 separation by Gong, Heqing, Chuah, Chong Yang, Yang, Yanqin, Bae, Tae-Hyun

“…Subsequently, high-quality mixed-matrix membranes that are free of filler/polymer interfacial voids were successfully fabricated by employing house-made polyimide as a polymer matrix. Binary CO2/CH4 mixture gas permeation tests revealed that both CO2 permeability and CO2/CH4 selectivity of mixed-matrix membranes, especially for the membrane with 20 wt% filler loading, were significantly improved compared to those of pure polymeric membrane owing to the selective CO2 uptake and transport by Zn(pyrz)2(SiF6) crystals. …”
