Teaching as a system: COVID-19 as a lens into teacher change
In the spring of 2020, schools and universities around the world were closed because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The relative lockdown affected more than 1.5 billion learners as teachers and students sheltered at home for several weeks. As schooling moved online, teachers were forced to change how they taught. In the research presented here, we focus on university mathematics professors, and we analyze how their practice, knowledge, and beliefs intertwine and change under these circumstances. More specifically, the context of the pandemic and the relative lockdown provides us with the experimental basis to argue that the new practice affected both knowledge and beliefs of mathematics teachers and that practice, knowledge, and beliefs form a system. Being part of a system, the reactions to change in practice can be of two types, namely, the system as a whole tries to resist change, or the system as a whole changes - and it changes significantly. The research presented here proposes a model for describing and analyzing what we called a teaching system and examines three cases that help to better depict the systemic nature of teaching

Methane and Nitrogen Abundances On Pluto and Eris
We present spectra of Eris from the MMT 6.5 meter telescope and Red Channel
Spectrograph (5700-9800 angstroms; 5 angstroms per pix) on Mt. Hopkins, AZ, and
of Pluto from the Steward Observatory 2.3 meter telescope and Boller and
Chivens spectrograph (7100-9400 angstroms; 2 angstroms per pix) on Kitt Peak,
AZ. In addition, we present laboratory transmission spectra of methane-nitrogen
and methane-argon ice mixtures. By anchoring our analysis in methane and
nitrogen solubilities in one another as expressed in the phase diagram of
Prokhvatilov and Yantsevich (1983), and comparing methane bands in our Eris and
Pluto spectra and methane bands in our laboratory spectra of methane and
nitrogen ice mixtures, we find Eris' bulk methane and nitrogen abundances are
about 10% and about 90%, and Pluto's bulk methane and nitrogen abundances are
about 3% and about 97%. Such abundances for Pluto are consistent with values
reported in the literature. It appears that the bulk volatile composition of
Eris is similar to the bulk volatile composition of Pluto. Both objects appear
to be dominated by nitrogen ice. Our analysis also suggests, unlike previous
work reported in the literature, that the methane and nitrogen stoichiometry is
constant with depth into the surface of Eris. Finally, we point out that our
Eris spectrum is also consistent with a laboratory ice mixture consisting of
40% methane and 60% argon. Although we cannot rule out an argon rich surface,
it seems more likely that nitrogen is the dominant species on Eris because the
nitrogen ice 2.15 micron band is seen in spectra of Pluto and Triton.Comment: The manuscript has 44 pages, 15 figures, and four tables. It will

A fully automated flow injection atomic absorption system for the determination of copper traces in waters with on-line pre-concentration in an ion-exchange column
The paper describes the development of an automatic on-line column
pre-concentration technique using a time based-flow injection atomic absorption spectrometry system. A manifold incorporating a micro-column containing 25 mg of Dowex 50W-X8 was used with a time-based injector for the pre-concentration and determination of
copper in natural and drinking waters. The system features depend on the alternate positions of a solenoid valve. The 3σ detection limits, enrichment factors, sampling frequency, relative standard deviations and linear calibration graphs were, respectively, in the range 0.6-1.5 μg/l, 25-60, 15-30 measurements/h, 1.0-3.1% and 1-65 μg/ml for pre-concentration times of 1 min. The procedure was successfully applied to a range of water samples and the accuracy was assessed through recovery experiments, the analysis of certified reference water samples and by independent analysis by
atomic absorption spectrometry with electrothermal atomization

Phosphorus fractions in the vineyard soil of the Serra Gaúcha of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.
The study aimed to evaluate the accumulation of P fractions in a vineyard soil profile with successive applications of phosphate fertilizers. In January 2010 an area was selected of native forest and a vineyard at age 33 with a history of phosphate fertilizer application, in Bento Gonçalves, Rio Grande do Sul state. Soil samples were collected from 0-5, 5-10 and 10-20 cm layers, prepared and submitted to chemical fractionation of P. The excessive application of phosphate fertilizers during 33 years in the vineyard soil increased the levels of organic and inorganic P until the 20 cm layer in all P fractions. The highest levels of P in the vineyard soil were found mainly in the labile fractions extracted with anion exchange resin and NaHCO3, which indicates high nutrient availability to plants, but also indicates the potential of transfer of solution from soil to surface run-off or percolated through the soil profile, which represents greater potential for contamination of surface and subsurface waters
