Sugiarto A, Tanjung RD, Pratama R 2022. Changes in climate patterns and their effects on harvest time of duku (Lansium domesticum Corr.). In: Herlinda S et al. (Eds.), Prosiding Seminar Nasional Lahan Suboptimal ke-10 Tahun 2022, Palembang 27 Oktober 2022. pp. 859-870. Palembang: Penerbit & Percetakan Universitas Sriwijaya (UNSRI).Climatic factors are essential in the fruit formation and development process of seasonal fruits, such as duku (Lansium domesticum Corr.). This study aimed to determine changes in climate patterns and their relation to the harvest time of duku. This research takes climate study data from 2018 and 2021, the processing and analysis of data to see climate patterns. Observation the harvest time of duku took a case study on plantations located in three villages (Berkat, Kijang Awal Terusan, and Serdang Menang), Sirah Pulau Padang District, Ogan Komering Ilir Regency. The results show that the climate conditions in 2018 and 2021 are not much different, but the climate patterns are very different. The harvest time under climatic conditions in 2018 is in January-February 2019, while the harvest time under climatic conditions in 2021 is in October-November 2021, January 2022, and March 2022. Observation of the harvest time in three villages under climatic conditions in 2018 looks the same, but the harvest time for 2021 climatic conditions is different. The harvest time in Berkat Village is in October and January, Kijang Awal Terusan in January and March, and Serdang Menang in November, January, and March. These results indicate that changes in climate patterns will affect the harvest time of duku
Digital image correlation (DIC) analysis of the 3 December 2013 Montescaglioso landslide (Basilicata, Southern Italy). Results from a multi-dataset investigation
Image correlation remote sensing monitoring techniques are becoming key tools for
providing effective qualitative and quantitative information suitable for natural hazard assessments,
specifically for landslide investigation and monitoring. In recent years, these techniques have
been successfully integrated and shown to be complementary and competitive with more standard
remote sensing techniques, such as satellite or terrestrial Synthetic Aperture Radar interferometry.
The objective of this article is to apply the proposed in-depth calibration and validation analysis,
referred to as the Digital Image Correlation technique, to measure landslide displacement.
The availability of a multi-dataset for the 3 December 2013 Montescaglioso landslide, characterized
by different types of imagery, such as LANDSAT 8 OLI (Operational Land Imager) and TIRS
(Thermal Infrared Sensor), high-resolution airborne optical orthophotos, Digital Terrain Models
and COSMO-SkyMed Synthetic Aperture Radar, allows for the retrieval of the actual landslide
displacement field at values ranging from a few meters (2–3 m in the north-eastern sector of the
landslide) to 20–21 m (local peaks on the central body of the landslide). Furthermore, comprehensive
sensitivity analyses and statistics-based processing approaches are used to identify the role of the
background noise that affects the whole dataset. This noise has a directly proportional relationship to
the different geometric and temporal resolutions of the processed imagery. Moreover, the accuracy
of the environmental-instrumental background noise evaluation allowed the actual displacement
measurements to be correctly calibrated and validated, thereby leading to a better definition of
the threshold values of the maximum Digital Image Correlation sub-pixel accuracy and reliability
(ranging from 1/10 to 8/10 pixel) for each processed dataset
MS – 230: Young Men’s Christian Association of Pennsylvania College Papers, 1867-1872
In 1867, President H. L. Baugher appointed Tutor Henry Eyster Jacobs (Class of 62) to chair a student committee to draw up a constitution for an organization through which students could learn about and support Christian missions. March 16, 1867, the Young Men’s Christian Association of Pennsylvania College was formed with Edward S. Breidenbaugh (Class of 1868) as its first president. With an early membership of 40, the association meet monthly, then quickly moved to weekly programs including prayer meetings, bible study, and lectures. Over the years, they supported the work of the Y. M. C.A. of Pennsylvania, several foreign missions, conducted services in the local poorhouse, held public lectures, and worked for temperance The Y.M.C.A. was the precursor to the Student Christian Association that functioned on this campus until 1965 when it merged with the Chapel Council to become one body.
Chiefly an organization for inquiry concerning missions, the Y. M. C. A. of Pennsylvania College members wrote letters to foreign missionaries requesting details of mission work. Folder 1 contains letters from missionaries in Indian, Japan, Syria, Turkey, and China, as well as a “home missionary” in St. Louis, Missouri. Some respondents wrote of the importance of the work in general and a few wrote details of their personal missionary work.
The rest of the papers contain business correspondence with Executive Committee of the Y.M.C.A. of Pennsylvania and other Y.M.C.A. organizations, as well as letters from local ministers contacted to speak before the group. These records, 1867-1872, are the only extant records of the association until 1946-1965, For those papers, see Record Group 3.4 Office of the Chaplain, Series I: Student Christian Association.

Efficient Algorithms for Searching the Minimum Information Partition in Integrated Information Theory
The ability to integrate information in the brain is considered to be an
essential property for cognition and consciousness. Integrated Information
Theory (IIT) hypothesizes that the amount of integrated information () in
the brain is related to the level of consciousness. IIT proposes that to
quantify information integration in a system as a whole, integrated information
should be measured across the partition of the system at which information loss
caused by partitioning is minimized, called the Minimum Information Partition
(MIP). The computational cost for exhaustively searching for the MIP grows
exponentially with system size, making it difficult to apply IIT to real neural
data. It has been previously shown that if a measure of satisfies a
mathematical property, submodularity, the MIP can be found in a polynomial
order by an optimization algorithm. However, although the first version of
is submodular, the later versions are not. In this study, we empirically
explore to what extent the algorithm can be applied to the non-submodular
measures of by evaluating the accuracy of the algorithm in simulated
data and real neural data. We find that the algorithm identifies the MIP in a
nearly perfect manner even for the non-submodular measures. Our results show
that the algorithm allows us to measure in large systems within a
practical amount of time
To be or not to Be? - First Evidence for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay
Double beta decay is indispensable to solve the question of the neutrino mass
matrix together with oscillation experiments. Recent analysis of the most
sensitive experiment since nine years - the HEIDELBERG-MOSCOW experiment in
Gran-Sasso - yields a first indication for the neutrinoless decay mode. This
result is the first evidence for lepton number violation and proves the
neutrino to be a Majorana particle. We give the present status of the analysis
in this report. It excludes several of the neutrino mass scenarios allowed from
present neutrino oscillation experiments - only degenerate scenarios and those
with inverse mass hierarchy survive. This result allows neutrinos to still play
an important role as dark matter in the Universe. To improve the accuracy of
the present result, considerably enlarged experiments are required, such as
GENIUS. A GENIUS Test Facility has been funded and will come into operation by
early 2003.Comment: 16 pages, latex, 10 figures, Talk was presented at International
