Instrument design:
The instrument were designed by Mike MacFerrin ([email protected]) after “coffee-can” method (Hulbe and Whillans, 1994; Hamilton et al., 1998) to continuously monitor firn compaction, similar to the method used by Arthern et al. (2010). Each instrument is composed of a line with a weight attached to one end and connected to a spring-loaded potentiometer on the other end. The weight is anchored at the bottom of a borehole, and the potentiometer is placed at the top of the borehole. As the borehole shortens due to firn compaction, the potentiometer reels in the string to maintain tension, and a data logger records the length of string that has been reeled in.
The CEN-COM station was first introduced by Colgan et al. (2018) and then described and used in Vandecrux et al. (2021). Please consider citing these two studies if using this data.

Instrumental set up:
On 1st of August 2017, three instruments were installed:
Instrument #1: Top at 1.4 m depth, end of line at 62.3 m depth
Instrument #2: Top at 0.0 m depth, end of line at 20.0 m depth
Instrument #3: Top at 0.0m depth, end of line at 5.0 m depth
On the 16th of May 2019, these three intruments were unplugged and two new instruments were inserted:
Instrument #1: Top at 0.0 m depth, end of line at 4.9 m depth (+/- 0.2 m)
Instrument #2: Top at 0.0 m depth, end of line at 7.7 m depth (+/- 0.2 m)
Instrument #5 failed and did not record any data.

Data description:
This folder contains transmissions from the station modem.
The three useful columns are the last three: "INST_1_LENGTH_CORRECTED_M" (and INST_2, INST_3, respectively). This shows the length of the 2-m potentiometer cable over time.
To derive borehole length from these measurements, do this:
INIT_BOREHOLE_LEN = depth (m) of the borehole when it was first drilled at the instrument installed.
INIT_CABLE_LEN = length of the cable (m) at the first full day after the instrument was installed (can check your field notes, or just plot & look at the data to see when the trends begin), from the table
CURRENT_CABLE_LEN = length of the cable (m) on any subsequent day
CURRENT_BOREHOLE_LEN = length of the borehole (m) on any subsequent day
Calculate as such:
CURRENT_BOREHOLE_LEN = INIT_BOREHOLE_LEN - INIT_CABLE_LEN + CURRENT_CABLE_LEN
The first weeks of measurements can be affected by the initial settling of the instrument into the snow.<br

Vagina shorter than penis. Atrium short. Distribution and habitat. Richmond River to the Border Ranges, north-eastern NSW; found in lowland to mid-altitude rainforest and vine thicket, living under logs. Remarks: Richmondaropa prava (Hedley, 1924) n. comb. is distinguished from the more coastal and parapatric Richmondaropa conjuncta (Iredale, 1941) n. comb. by its larger size, less tightly coiled whorls and more crowded and numerous radial ribs on the teleoconch. R. prava differs from the broadly sympatric Dictyoropa eurythma chiefly by the protoconch sculpture which in R. prava primarily consists of widely spaced, narrow spiral cords in contrast to the broadly reticulate pattern of D. eurythma. Radial elements are present on the protoconch of R. prava but these take the form of weak underlying growth ridges.Published as part of Shea, M., Colgan, D.

Nowe spojrzenie na planowanie architektury mieszkaniowej w afryce subsaharyjskiej
No full textThe author shares his reflections on state of art in housing and urban planning, deficiencies, expectations and possibilities in the Sahel region of Africa. He notices, that the housing problem in Africa is one of the challenges, which should be solved in order to recover life dignity of African people and secure their rights to traditional family life in acceptable conditions. The paper describes the studies on the typical dispersed urban structures and the need to foster this type of settlement structure and proposals of introduction of new on light steel frame housing system in the area of Sahel, combining the traditional way of building houses with modern technology. The particularly analysed case, is the housing problem in the Republic of Chad. The author presents the basic discussion on this topic and his architectural proposals. Unfortunately, the gap between the needs and the financial feasibility of housing construction in this area, makes this project already at the starting point extremely difficult to be realized without external subventions.Problem mieszkaniowy w Afryce jest jednym z wyzwań, które należy rozwiązać, aby Afrykanie mogli odzyskać godność życiową i zabezpieczyć swoje prawa do tradycyjnego życia rodzinnego w akceptowalnych warunkach. W artykule opisano badania nad typowymi rozproszonymi strukturami miejskimi i potrzebą wspierania tego typu struktur osadniczych oraz propozycji wprowadzenia nowego systemu konstrukcji domów, opartym na lekkim szkielecie stalowym, łączącym tradycyjny sposób budowania domów z nowoczesną technologią. Przypadkiem szczególnie analizowanym jest problem mieszkaniowy w Republice Czadu. Autor przedstawia podstawową dyskusję na ten temat i swoje propozycje architektoniczne. Niestety luka między potrzebami mieszkaniowymi w Czadzie a finansową wykonalnością budownictwa mieszkaniowego w tym obszarze sprawia, że projekt ten, już w punkcie wyjścia, jest niezwykle trudny do realizacji bez uzyskania zewnętrznych dotacji

Zasady szacowania gruntów w postępowaniach scaleniowych w Polsce
No full textThe subject of the study was the principles of land estimation used for the purpose of consolidation
proceedings, as they are applied in Poland.
The work examines the legal conditions relating to the estimation of land for the purposes of
consolidation. Documents prepared in the years 2005–2017 concerning land estimation (resolutions
of the consolidation participants, and protocols from the value estimates) have been
collected for 41 consolidated sites, located in 28 districts of 11 voivodships (regions). A survey
was conducted among the surveyors-designers of the consolidation proceedings, consisting of
19 questions. In the current year, the co-author of the present article was present at meetings of
consolidation proceedings’ participants, convened in order to determine the rules for estimating
land value on two sites located in different regions, and the material she collected during those
meetings was used in the article.
The collected data were subjected to an analysis, which showed that within Poland there is no
homogeneity in the method of estimating land value for the purpose of consolidation proceedings,
and that the method used to determine the value of land, taking into account the 1-hectare
estimated rate, and the price of 1dt of rye grain, according to the provisions of the agricultural
tax, is incompatible with the principles for the valuation of agricultural real estate, as specified in
the law on real estate management.Przedmiotem badań były zasady szacowania gruntów stosowane w postępowaniach scaleniowych w Polsce.
W ramach pracy przeanalizowano uwarunkowania prawne odnoszące się do szacunku gruntów na potrzeby scaleń. Zebrano dokumentację sporządzoną w latach 2005-2017 dotyczącą szacunku gruntów (uchwały uczestników scalenia i protokoły z przeprowadzonego szacunku) dla 41 obiektów scaleniowych, położonych na terenie 28 powiatów z 11 województw. Przeprowadzono ankietę wśród geodetów-projektantów scaleń, składającą się
z 19 pytań. Współautorka artykułu w bieżącym roku była obecna na spotkaniach uczestników scalenia, zwołanych w celu ustalenia zasad szacowania gruntów na dwóch obiektach, zlokalizowanych w różnych województwach i zebrane materiały dotyczące tych spotkań wykorzystane zostały w artykule.
Zgromadzone dane poddano analizie, która wykazała, że w Polsce nie ma jednolitości
w sposobie szacowania gruntów na potrzeby postępowań scaleniowych oraz że stosowany sposób określania wartości gruntów z uwzględnieniem stawek szacunkowych 1 ha oraz ceny 1dt żyta wg przepisów o podatku rolnym jest niezgodny z zasadami wyceny nieruchomości rolnych określonymi w ustawie o gospodarce nieruchomościami
