    Orientador: Thereza Cristina Gosdal.Monografia (graduação) - Universidade Federal do Paraná, Setor de Ciências Jurídicas, Curso de Graduação em DireitoResumo: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo discutir a Responsabilidade Civil Objetiva, para as ocupações ditas de risco. Para tanto, busca apresentar, inicialmente, os conceitos essenciais de acidente de trabalho (acidente típico, doenças ocupacionais e acidente de trajeto). Também explora o conceito de responsabilidade civil, sua natureza jurídica e evolução, assim como suas vertentes subjetiva e objetiva, trabalhando na primeira com os elementos essenciais que a constituem, como ato ou omissão do agente, nexo causal, dano e culpa. Quanto à segunda (objetiva), explica sua inserção na Teoria do Risco e sua aplicação baseada na ideia de solidariedade e justiça social. Apresenta e discute a definição legislativa de atividades de risco e como a teoria objetiva se aplica a elas. Por fim, analisa as normas fundamentadoras da Responsabilidade Civil e finaliza ilustrando com cinco casos concretos examinados pelos Tribunais Regionais do Trabalho

    During the Arctic Study of Tropospheric Aerosol, Clouds and Radiation (ASTAR) in March and April 2007, measurements obtained at the AWIPEV Arctic Research Base in Ny-Ålesund, Spitsbergen at 78.9° N, 11.9° E (operated by the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research – AWI and the Institut polaire français Paul-Emile Victor – IPEV), supported the airborne campaign. This included lidar data from the Koldewey Aerosol Raman Lidar (KARL) and the Micro Pulse Lidar (MPL), located in the atmospheric observatory as well as photometer data and the daily launched radiosonde. The MPL features nearly continuous measurements; the KARL was switched on whenever weather conditions allowed observations (145 h in 61 days). From 1 March to 30 April, 71 meteorological balloon soundings were performed and compared with the concurrent MPL measurements; photometer measurements are available from 18 March. For the KARL data, a statistical overview of particle detection based on their optical properties backscatter ratio and volume depolarization can be given. The altitudes of the occurrence of the named features (subvisible and visible ice and water as well as mixed-phase clouds, aerosol layers) as well as their dependence on different air mass origins are analyzed. Although the spring 2007 was characterized by rather clean conditions, diverse case studies of cloud and aerosol occurrence during March and April 2007 are presented in more detail, including temporal development and main optical properties as depolarization, backscatter and extinction coefficients. Links between air mass origins and optical properties can be presumed but need further evidence

    “poetticall raptures, and fixions”: Mary Wroth’s Negotiation of Early Modern Poetics and Ovid in the ‘Urania’

    In the manuscript continuation of Mary Wroth’s ‘The Countess of Montgomery’s Urania,’ the character Antissia goes mad writing inappropriate poetry because an overly ambitious scholar of Ovid supposedly leads her to dabble with literature that is beyond women’s mental capacity. This instance of explicit critique of a female author in the first English romance authored by a woman has continued to trouble critics. My analysis of the episode proposes an alternative approach to the scathing critique on Antissia’s writing by instead reading it as an intervention in the contemporary discourse of poetics. Rather than criticising female authorship, I argue, Wroth questions the proper place of writing in relation to social duties, reflects on poetic invention and craftsmanship and on how to engage with canonical precursors and models. By exposing the authorship practices of Antissia and her tutor and their uncritical emulation of canonical male texts, Wroth valorises her own reworking of two tales from Ovid’s ‘Metamorphoses’ and indirectly outlines an ideal female or male writer in the tradition of Aristotle and Philip Sidney

    Influence of interactive stratospheric chemistry on large-scale air mass exchange in a global circulation model

    Get PDF
    A new globally uniform Lagrangian transport scheme for large ensembles of passive tracer particles is presented and applied to wind data from a coupled atmosphere-ocean climate model that includes interactive dynamical feedback with stratospheric chemistry. This feedback from the chemistry is found to enhance large-scale meridional air mass exchange in the northern winter stratosphere as well as intrusion of stratospheric air into the troposphere, where both effects are due to a weakened polar vortex

    Displaying secrecy in George Gascoigne’s The Adventures of Master F.J.

    No full text
    George Gascoigne’s The Adventures of Master F.J. (1573/1575) is best known for its elaborate fiction of production and the scandal its 1573 publication supposedly caused due to being read as a roman à clef. This article considers the 1573 version of Gascoigne’s narrative and his 1575 prefatory comments on it in the context of Elizabethan intelligence practices. Interpreting the republication of Gascoigne’s works as a sign of success rather than as a consequence of censorship, I argue that at the heart of the complex narrative lies Gascoigne’s paradoxical endeavour to recommend himself as a government informer through his writing. Gascoigne’s display of the abilities necessary for an informer pervades the very fabric of the text, as he simultaneously puts into practice and reveals his skill at keeping, encoding, transmitting and disclosing secrets. Gascoigne’s contradictory performance of concealment and disclosure results in a narrative in which meanings are both obscured and partly decoded. This manifests itself especially in the narrative’s fiction of production, Gascoigne’s use of roman-à-clef strategies and his foregrounding of indirect means of communication, including the coded representation of sexual encounters

    Influence of band gradients on Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 solar cell diode factors

    No full text
    The influence of band gap gradients on the charge collection and diode quality factor of solar cells is investigated by device simulation. A back surface band gap gradient manifested as a gradient of the conduction band is found to lead to an increased diode quality factor. Thus, the positive influence of the gradient on the fill factor is partially counterbalanced by the diode quality factor increase. The reason for the latter is the enhanced contribution of space charge region recombination. If the cell is equipped with a double gradient at front and back surfaces, the detrimental diode factor increase can be suppressed. The relevance of the findings is investigated using different carrier lifetimes and doping levels

    Springtime Arctic aerosol: Smoke versus Haze, a case study for March 2008

    Get PDF
    During March 2008 photometer observations of Arctic aerosol were performed both at a Russian ice-floe drifting station (NP-35) at the central Arctic ocean (56.7e42.0 E, 85.5e84.2 N) and at Ny-Ålesund, Spitsbergen (78.9 N, 11.9 E). Next to a persistent increase of AOD over NP-35, two pronounced aerosol events have been recorded there, one originating from early season forest fires close to the city of Khabarovsk (“Arctic Smoke”), the other one showed trajectories from central Russia and resembled more the classical Arctic Haze. The latter event has also been recorded two days later over Ny-Ålesund, both in photometer and lidar. From these remote sensing instruments volume distribution functions are derived and discussed. Only subtle differences between the smoke and the haze event have been found in terms of particle microphysics. Different trajectory analysis, driven by NCEP and ECMWF have been performed and compared. For the data set presented here the meteorological field, due to sparseness of data in the central Arctic, mainly limits the precision of the air trajectories

    The Spring-Time Boundary Layer in the Central Arctic Observed during PAMARCMiP 2009

    The Arctic atmospheric boundary layer (AABL) in the central Arctic was characterized by dropsonde, lidar, ice thickness and airborne in situ measurements during the international Polar Airborne Measurements and Arctic Regional Climate Model Simulation Project (PAMARCMiP) in April 2009. We discuss AABL observations in the lowermost 500 m above (A) open water, (B) sea ice with many open/refrozen leads (C) sea ice with few leads, and (D) closed sea ice with a front modifying the AABL. Above water, the AABL had near-neutral stratification and contained a high water vapor concentration. Above sea ice, a low AABL top, low near-surface temperatures, strong surface-based temperature inversions and an increase of moisture with altitude were observed. AABL properties and particle concentrations were modified by a frontal system, allowing vertical mixing with the free atmosphere. Above areas with many leads, the potential temperature decreased with height in the lowest 50 m and was nearly constant above, up to an altitude of 100–200 m, indicating vertical mixing. The increase of the backscatter coefficient towards the surface was high. Above sea ice with few refrozen leads, the stably stratified boundary layer extended up to 200–300 m altitude. It was characterized by low specific humidity and a smaller increase of the backscatter coefficient towards the surface
